Chapter 61: Sneak Attack and Clearance
Wang Yong asked Lei He, and after learning that there was no limit to the distance he could control John, Wang Yong returned the belt to Reagan and asked him to set off with his team.
Wang Yong thought so: "Maybe you can get something good in a while, and if there is someone I don't know, let Lei follow to help take a look, and save him from running back and forth." ”
After that, everyone was divided into four teams, Wang Yong and Vani each led a team, Kevin and four minotaurs led a team, as for John, Wang Yong was still a little uneasy, so he still gave him the poison prepared by Lei and the mixture first, just in case, and then gave him the antidote when the task was completed, so that everyone could rest assured a little.
For the sake of safety, Wang Yong also asked Da Blow and Carl to follow John, so that they could keep an eye on them at any time, and if anything went wrong, they would be killed immediately.
Four teams, each with about fifty people, took advantage of the darkness to quietly march towards the headquarters of the four small bandit groups. In the middle of the night, everyone arrived at the agreed meeting point on time.
After their respective reports, Wang Yong felt that on the whole the operation was very smooth, although the difficulty of attacking the bandits' lair at night had increased a lot, and his side had lost a total of more than 40 cannon fodder and two militiamen, but these casualties were still within the tolerable range.
In this operation, more than 50 bandits were killed, more than a dozen escaped, and more than 60 bandits were captured, of whom more than 20 were seriously injured and could not continue the battle.
The two militiamen who died were shot to death with bows and arrows by bandits in the shadows, and there was no way to prevent a sneak attack at night.
Wang Yong sighed, found a few militiamen, and brought the captured food and those wounded who could not participate in the station back to the temporary station to recuperate. The bodies of the two militiamen were also brought back, and Wang Yong ordered them to be buried together at the monument.
Kevin kept his head down and was silent, because the two militiamen who died were his subordinates.
Vani patted Kevin's shoulder and comforted: "If you fight, people will die, don't think about it, there will be a cruel reality waiting for us in the future, you have to grow up faster, so that more people can live." ”
Wang Yong also came over to comfort him and said, "Yes, cheer up, there are more bandits to do, let's avenge them." ”
Kevin nodded vigorously, took a large package from the horse, handed it to Wang Yong, and said, "These were scraped from the bandits, and they are all jewelry and gold coins. Wang Yong took the package and put it directly into the space ring without looking at it.
Wang Yong is very poor now, and he spent more than 20,000 gold coins to buy the materials for the medicine, and some others, such as food, daily necessities, and so on, also spent a lot.
The gold coins in Wang Yong's hand are already less than 20,000, and I don't know how much it will cost to build the city next year, and now the only source of income for Wang Yong and others is to rob bandits.
Vani also handed over the valuables and gold coins he collected to Wang Yong, and John's team handed them over when they came to meet.
After the wounded left, the group rested in place for nearly two hours, and at about two o'clock in the morning, the team set off again, aiming for the Ironstone Bandits to the east.
Ironstone is a medium-sized bandit regiment with more than 130 bandits, the leader of which is a junior warrior, and their lair is also in a cave.
Wang Yong touched his chin and wondered, "Why do bandits like to live in caves?"
When it was close to three o'clock, the team crept to the vicinity of the lair of the Iron and Stone Bandits, leaving ten men to guard the horses, two carts, and grain, while the others crept closer to the cave under the cover of night.
Vani and Kevin were leading the way, as the two of them were junior fighters, so their eyesight was much better than that of ordinary people, and they could see clearly the sentry positions hidden in the darkness at night.
Varney and Kevin sneaked all the way and soon found the entrance to the cave, and they also solved more than two dozen sentries along the way. Soon, Wang Yong also rushed to the entrance of the cave with a large group of men and horses, and ordered everyone to be on guard and fence the entrance of the cave.
After Wang Yong and Vannie, Kevin and others muttered and discussed for a while, Vani sneaked into the cave alone. After a while, I saw Varney running out with a knocked out bandit.
After being tortured by Carl and others, Wang Yong unexpectedly learned that there was another exit from this inconspicuous cave, which made Wang Yong and others feel very tricky.
The bandits also confessed that the bandits in the cave, because they had done a big job yesterday, almost drank too much at dinner, and now they are sleeping like dead pigs.
After Wang Yong and the others discussed it again, Da Blow, Carl and they followed John to another exit, and their task was to block the outside of the cave entrance and shoot them with crossbows as long as anyone ran out.
Estimating the time, Da Fu and the others were almost at the entrance of the cave over there, so Wang Yong quietly led people into the cave.
The inside of the cave is similar to Billy's lair, with many large and small rooms dug up by bandits on both sides of the passage.
Every time Wang Yong and the others passed through a room, they sent some people to sneak in and knock out the bandits who were still dreaming inside.
Of course, knocking people out is also a technical job, so the techniques of knocking people are also good and bad, and if you feel good, you can knock the bandits out at once, and then tie them up. If you don't feel good, you basically can't use the rope, just bury it directly afterwards.
In this way, Wang Yong and others secretly knocked out more than 50 bandits, and the sneak attack went very smoothly.
However, when they had just walked around a corner, Wang Yong and the others were discovered by a bandit who had a convenient way to get up.
When the bandit saw that it was not his own, he shouted in horror: "Someone is attacking." Then he couldn't take any other precautions, so he turned around and ran, but the bandit didn't take a few steps before he was shot by Vani with a crossbow.
When the bandits fell, the sound of his warning was still echoing in the cave, and Wang Yong had no choice but to order everyone to be on guard and resist the bandits' counterattack at any time.
After a while, I heard a piercing sound of the gong breaking from the depths of the cave, and then a number of sleepy-eyed bandits came out of the caves on both sides of the passage.
After these still dazed bandits saw Wang Yong and the others, they were all stunned at first, and then they all turned around and ran into the depths of the cave immediately.
Wang Yong felt a little relieved when he saw this: "If these bandits fight back desperately, although with the strength of their own side, it is no longer a problem to eliminate those bandits, but they will not be able to avoid casualties." Now that the bandits have run away, they have already lost in momentum, and when they start working again, they have already taken the initiative. ”
Wang Yong left four minotaurs, ten militiamen, and twenty cannon fodder, and asked them to check the fish in the back of a stone house, and Wang Yong led more than 100 people to chase in the direction of the fleeing bandits.
Wang Yong and the others chased far away, and arrived at a spacious hall, where many people had already gathered, and all the remaining bandits should be here.
The boss of the bandits stood at the front, saw Wang Yong and the others chasing in, looked at the few remaining subordinates behind him, and asked timidly: "Who are you? Why did you attack us, if it is for money, we can discuss." ”
Wang Yong, Varni, and Kevin ignored the bandit leader, gathered together to discuss a few words, and then without speaking, he raised his crossbow and fired, and ordered the cannon fodder to rush forward.
The bandit leader was handed over to Varney and Kevin to deal with, Wang Yong didn't make a move, but stood beside Lei He, watching the cannon fodder and the bandits with a comfortable face, and shouting from time to time to explain to Regan.
"You see how well this flirtatious kick is, the strength and landing point are really remarkable. The dragon claw hand over there is also quite hot, but the position of the grasp is too non-standard, yes, yes, to the chest. Damn, that thing actually bites people's ears, this is too unethical, it should be pulled out and shot. Lei Gen came to see it well, but when he heard Wang Yong firing a cannon on the side, the more Lei Gen listened, the more confused he became.
At this time, some clever cannon fodder took out lime powder, regardless of the fact that they were still facing the crowded land, and after the other cannon fodder saw it, they also followed suit and took out the lime powder distributed to them.
For a while, I saw that in the hall in the belly of the mountain, it was raining lime all over the sky, and suddenly the entire hall was filled with smoke and dust, and Wang Yong and Lei Hehe, who were standing behind the formation, choked and coughed constantly.
Wang Yong and Reagan hurriedly retreated, and the air was better when they withdrew more than a hundred meters, and the two stretched their necks to look inside, but the front was foggy, and they couldn't see anything clearly. It didn't take long for the dusty Varney and Kevin to run out, followed by cannon fodder.
Kevin pointed at the cannon fodder and asked angrily, "Who the fuck did it, stand up for me." ”
The cannon fodder is not stupid, they all bow their heads and remain silent. Wang Yong saw that Vannie, Kevin, and those cannon fodder had become white-haired monsters, and gloated and laughed on the side, so angry that Kevin and Vani almost gave Wang Yong a bag of lime powder.
After waiting for about five or six minutes, the smoke and dust inside were small, and everyone entered the hall cautiously.
As soon as I entered the hall, I saw about thirty people lying on the ground, rolling on the ground with their eyes covered, including the boss of the Iron and Stone Bandits.
Wang Yong glanced at Kevin with disdain, Kevin squeezed his eyebrows embarrassedly and said, "I'm not afraid that he will run away, so I used lime to get him, hehe." ”
Wang Yong saw that there was no danger left, so he asked the cannon fodder to do it and tie up those bandits. As for the bandit leader, Vani took it upon himself to dislocate all the joints of his limbs before he was tied up strongly.
About another twenty minutes passed, and the Minotaur and Dabuki at the entrance of another cave arrived in the hall one after another, and Vani arranged for people to go outside to patrol and then began to interrogate the bandit leader.
With Wang Yong's experience, he knew that the bandit leader would not say anything without torture, because everyone had this problem, so Wang Yong did not intend to waste his saliva, and directly asked Karl to tie the bandit leader's five fingernails before asking.
The bandit leader wanted to cry without tears, in fact, he had long wanted to surrender, but before he could speak, Karl began to torture without saying a word.
In addition, Carl's skills were skillful, and before the bandit leader could speak, he quickly moved the execution, so painful that the bandit leader couldn't bother to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but only cared about screaming loudly.
After the bandit leader honestly answered all of Wang Yong's questions, he was still very ignorant and said his idea of wanting to surrender for a long time, which made Wang Yong's face red and white for a while.
In the end, Wang Yong saw that this goods was still honest, and gave him the best treatment, that is, he poured him up, and he flew to his feet, and then he let out a bad breath.
After collecting the food, equipment and valuables in the cave, there was nothing useful in it, so Wang Yong asked Da Blowing to take people to the Houshan Horse Farm, led more than 100 horses there to the main gate, and then sent people to transport the excess supplies back to the temporary station.
Wang Yong calculated, the previous purchase, plus the capture from the bandits, now has more than 300 horses, although it is not much needed now, but when the territory is built in the future, these horses can be used to pull carts, and virtually save a lot of expenses, Wang Yong is very pleased and addicted.
Arrange everything, except for the people on duty, let everyone find a place to rest and prepare for the next battle, and Wang Yong also began to meditate.
