Wang Yong stood beside David and squinted as the bandits from Dongshan entered the cottage, and when the last bandit entered, Wang Yong waved his hand and asked the minotaur to close the gate.

Led was smug in his heart, only to hear a loud 'bang', and when he looked back, the door of the cottage was closed. At first, Led didn't think much of it, but when he saw sixty or seventy people on the wall aiming at him with their crossbows, his scalp tingled.

Led thought to himself: "I have just been promoted, and my fighting strength is very low, but I can't resist so many crossbow attacks. ”

The corners of Led's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly said to David: "Don't do it, there is something to say, we can discuss the reward, it's really not" Before Led finished speaking, Wang Yong shot a crossbow arrow at Led behind David, and then commanded Hongzhong to blast a fireball.

When the fire dissipated, I saw that Led was burned to a blackened flesh, and there was a crossbow arrow in his throat.

When the bandits in Dongshan were stunned, Wang Yong released a magic shield to protect himself firmly, and then shouted: "Either lay down your weapons and surrender, or die." Then, with a wave of his hand, Carl and the others fired ten rounds of crossbow arrows, killing ten unlucky men who were still stunned on the spot. Then, the crowd shouted together: "Lay down your arms and surrender, lay down your arms and surrender!"

The collective power is infinite, and this roar made the bandits in Dongshan finally reflect, and a few bandits who were just about to take up arms to resist were shot on the spot by no less than two crossbow arrows before they could make any achievements. The rest of the bandits, you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to move a single bit.

Wang Yong shouted again: "Either lay down your arms and surrender, or die!"

Under the pressure of this tense atmosphere and the stimulation of the smell of blood, finally a bandit couldn't stand it anymore, heard Wang Yong's words, hurriedly threw away his weapon, jumped off the horse and squatted on the ground with his head in his arms.

Someone took the lead, someone followed, and soon, more than 80 bandits all lost their weapons and squatted on the ground to surrender.

At this time, Wang Yong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat on his palms on his clothes, and said to Da Blow: "Big blow, you take ten people to collect their horses and weapons, and the others are on standby, and if you find any abnormal movement, shoot them immediately." ”

Da Bhui led ten militiamen, carefully guarding against the horses and weapons of the Dongshan bandits to the suspension bridge, they were not only on guard against the resistance of the Dongshan bandits, but also against the rebellion of the cannon fodder.

After they packed up the bandits' weapons, Wang Yong asked Carl and them to take people with ropes, and tied them into zongzi one by one, and asked them to take off their leather armor before they started, and also carefully collected their bodies, just in case.

After dealing with the bandits in Dongshan, the militiamen began to take back the crossbows in the hands of the cannon fodder, the cannon fodder was very obedient, without any hesitation, obediently handed the crossbow back to the militia, and after everything was dealt with, Wang Yong was really relieved.

Wang Yong and Lei followed the wall, looking at the more than 80 bandits and more than 30 cannon fodder in the open field, and then looking at the more than 20 militiamen who were busy pouring medicine on the surrendered bandits, they felt that their manpower was too small.

"It seems that I have to develop some trustworthy people to help, but where to look for it, I only know so many people, and they have all followed me. Wang Yong sighed weakly and muttered in a low voice: "Horses can't do it because they are thin, and people are not romantic, just for poverty." ”

Reagan asked suspiciously, "What do you mean? Are these horses skinny? I think it's okay." ”

Wang Yong shook his head and explained, "I mean we have too few people. Reagan nodded in agreement, "yes." ”

When the bandits in Dongshan finished pouring poison and successfully transformed into cannon fodder, Wang Yong faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

Wang Yong was already crying without tears, and scolded in his heart: "Your uncle, why is it so difficult to destroy this big-horned bandit group, it's more troublesome than poking a monkey's nest, this bandit is coming in waves, and it doesn't let people live?"

Now, Wang Yong has no more time to complain, up his ears and listens carefully, there seem to be not many people coming, only two or three horses.

Wang Yong and Lei He turned around and looked in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came, and saw two people galloping towards this place on horseback, as if there was something urgent.

While Wang Yong breathed a sigh of relief, he did not dare to be careless, and ordered the militia to defend and pay attention to the movements around him.

Soon, the people approached, and the two of them first wandered far away near the cottage, and then slowly approached little by little.

When Wang Yong saw the face of the person who came, he waved his hand and shouted excitedly: "Kevin, you slut, hurry up and let me in." Wang Yong ordered the gate to be opened.

Kevin also saw Wang Yong clearly, smiled, and rode into the cottage.

As soon as Kevin entered the gate, he was pulled off the horse by Wang Yong, Wang Yong looked at Kevin carefully, and after seeing that he was not injured, he asked suspiciously: "How are you over there? Why are you two only coming? Is there any accident?"

Kevin replied smugly: "Our side is going well, basically we didn't do much, and after those bandits saw the fighting spirit on my body, they were impressed by my strong momentum and took the initiative to surrender." There were four small bandit groups, and we caught more than 110 cannon fodder. Vani and the brigade are still behind, they have a lot of captured supplies, and the speed is relatively slow, it is estimated that it will arrive in another half an hour. We're here first, by the way, how are you doing here?"

Wang Yong learned that Vani and they were going well, and his heart was relaxed, "It's not bad on our side, we have solved two medium-sized bandit groups at once." Then Wang Yong recounted the experience.

Kevin was shocked when he heard this, and said with admiration: "You are really bold, if it were me, you would have run away a long time ago." Then he turned to the militia who came with him and said, "You go back and tell Vani that everything is okay here, and let them hurry up." ”

The militia was just about to mount his horse, but Wang Yong grabbed him and said, "Also, ask Vani to send someone to inform Nuosen and tell them to pack up their things and come here overnight, so that our garrison has moved here." Leave a few people over there for the time being, and when Maury and the others return, bring them here too. ”

The militiaman nodded and said, "Got it, boss." Then he rode away at a gallop.

After Vani led the group into the cottage, he first praised the beautiful scenery here, and then got together to tell each other's experiences.

Vani and they are relatively smooth, just like Kevin said, the bandits have lost the courage to resist when they see that Vani has a junior warrior in charge.

Because, a small bandit group like them, with only more than 20 people, is estimated to be not enough for a junior warrior to cut it all.

But those bandits still have a glimmer of hope, they can gain a foothold here, of course, there are stronger bandits behind them, so they have shown their backers, hoping to scare away Vani and others.

But when the bandits learned that their backers had been wiped out by these people, they completely gave up resistance and surrendered obediently. Only a few bandits sneaked away through the back door of the lair or other secret passages, and Varni didn't chase the useless bandits because they were in a hurry.

After that, Wang Yong told Vani about the situation on his side again, and Vani gave Wang Yong a thumbs up with admiration and didn't say anything.

After chatting for a while, Wang Yong proposed: "After everyone settles down, Kevin and I will go to lie in the lair of the Dongshan bandit group and exterminate all the bandits there, so that they will not escape after receiving the news." After destroying the nest of Dongshan, the southern part of the province will be in our hands. ”

Vani sighed and said worriedly: "I can't say that yet, we still have too few manpower, although we have exterminated the bandits in this area, but we don't have manpower to occupy and defend." Our people are only enough to occupy this place, and we can't take care of other places at all, and after a long time, they will still be occupied by other bandits. ”

Wang Yong shrugged helplessly and said, "I know this, but we can't find more people to help." ”

Ray whispered, "We can buy more slaves." ”

Wang Yong shook his head and said, "I still have 30,000 gold coins, and if I sell all those jewelry, I guess I can get an extra 10,000 gold coins." However, if you buy slaves, you have to buy more food, and it is difficult to buy food now, and it may not be enough to supply so many of us now. "The things we got this time are about 10,000 gold coins, but there is still not much food. I wondered, don't these bandits need to prepare food for the winter?"

Wang Yong didn't want to see the land he had beaten down being occupied by those hateful bandits again, so he felt very uncomfortable, and finally made up his mind and said, "I have decided, let's buy another 2,000 slaves and come back to help." But first of all, I have to make it clear to those slaves what they are doing here, and we can't guarantee their lives at the beginning. However, as long as we persist until all the bandits are exterminated and the city is built, we will return their freedom, give them civilian status, and those who have meritorious service will be promoted. If there are those who are willing to come, we will buy them, and try to buy their families back, so that they will have no worries in the future and can start a new life here. Then, buy another 10,000 gold coins of grain, don't need to be good, just be able to eat, as long as we persist until next spring, we can grow our own food and be self-sufficient. ”

Lei asked with a puzzled face: "Can I grow grain here?" Didn't Marquis Martin say that there is no grain here?"

Wang Yong said with disdain: "What can a scum like him who only cares about accumulating money and making personal interests know, I have checked the soil quality here in the past few days, although wheat cannot be grown here, but some potatoes and sweet potatoes can be grown." If a canal is built, it can provide enough water to grow rice. I guess the reason why Martin said that there was no food to grow here was probably because the lords who came here couldn't even settle down with the bandits here, and they didn't have time to care about farming. Besides, the bandits here all live by robbery, and they can't grow their own food so hard, isn't it faster and less labor-intensive to rob others? That Martin must not have been here for a detailed investigation, so he was so hearsay. ”

When Lei heard this, he was very happy in his heart, and said to Wang Yong with a smile on his face: "You are really talented, and you know about farming." ”

Wang Yong rolled his eyes and said, "Are you praising me or hurting me?" After several people laughed, the matter was settled.
