In front of the village, Ji Yan stopped beating the drum, got on her horse, and carried the drum behind her. Just as Zu Yuantong was about to follow, Ji Yan looked at the small village in the distance with a frosty look on her face.
Zu Yuantong's heart trembled. He looked at the village where the killing was still happening, and said with a heavy hand: "Young Master, I will intercept the enemies who are coming to help. Please rest assured, Young Master, as long as I am still breathing, I will not let the thieves enter." One step up Cuisong Mountain." Ji Yan's expression softened a little,
"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you in the village to return with a great victory."
"I obey, young master, take care." Zu Yuantong turned the horse's head and raised the whip in his hand.
"My sons, follow me and kill the thieves outside the mountain." Ji Yan sighed as she watched the soldiers swarming away on the mountain road.
In the past, I always dreamed of leading troops on the battlefield, but today's battle gave me a hard slap in the face.
Fighting is really not a good thing. The yellow sand can wear golden armor in a hundred battles, and the sword can be used as a million soldiers. How can it be as impassioned and angry as the storybook says?
There is only death here, belonging to one's own people and those of the enemy. People bite each other like wild beasts. Only when one party falls completely will this tragic killing end.
At the moment, only by defeating the opponent as quickly as possible can more of your own people survive. Shaking her head vigorously to throw these random thoughts out of her mind, Ji Yan carried the drum on her back and rushed to the mountain stronghold with the rest of the people.
Even though he couldn't fight in person, he, the good-for-nothing young master, could still do something to boost morale.
At this time, Wu Gen was in another predicament. The people who were pestering him and his men were not ordinary horse thieves, but the old, weak, sick and disabled who had eaten evil pills and had lost their minds. They had no ability at all. Zhang Fa did not spare his life at all, wielding crude weapons in his hands and not even a piece of armor.
If Baoxiang hadn't rushed out with the Eight Riders of Lingyun, rushed directly to the back of the village, set fire everywhere to drive away the people in the village, and disrupted Bukai's arrangements, I'm afraid there would have been more people driven over by him to be killed. , consuming the combat power of the Fearless Army.
Compared with those strong men and giant mastiffs, Wu Gen felt more uncomfortable dealing with these people who didn't have much fighting power.
Looking at the costumes of these people, Wu Gen seemed to have returned to Dafeng Village and the broken house behind the village.
"Master of the village." The soldier beside him slashed down an old man who was sneaking up on Wu Gen with his sword, and Wu Gen came back to his senses only after exclaiming.
It couldn't be like this anymore. Wu Gen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. There were horse thieves outside the mountain. If they rushed here, it would be difficult to fight today. We couldn't waste time here anymore.
On the opposite side, Bu Kai had already led the horse thieves, following these dead soldiers, pressing towards Wu Gen. Wu Gen was cruel and knocked a woman unconscious with the back of his knife, then led his men to kill Bukai.
The horse thieves have not lost their fighting power, and there are still more people in the village than the fearless army. Only by taking advantage of the momentum just now to overwhelm them can the fight be ended more quickly.
"Niu Ye, what are you doing? Release the remaining giant mastiffs." A slightly tall warrior suddenly shouted at the bald man who was trying his best to gather the team.
Niu Ye glanced at the strongman, pointed at the family members running around in the village, and said anxiously: "There is a sudden car accident, the village is too chaotic. If we let all the mastiffs out, I will not be able to restrain myself, and I will accidentally hurt one of my own people." ." The strongman heard this and cursed: "What kind of kindness are you doing at this time? These people will die more if they die. The brothers who went out to hunt for food will be back soon. We just have to hold on for a while and wait for them to come and kill us. , catch that bullshit young master, and we will live. Hurry up and release the remaining giant mastiffs, and kill these Ji family dogs." Niu Ye got a stick in his neck.
"That won't work, that's not what mastiffs are for."
"You piece of trash that can't carry it, let go quickly, or I'll chop you down first." Lux was already furious at this time.
Hearing the two arguing from afar, Wu Gen didn't know that this strongman was transformed by Che Tu. No wonder he couldn't find him just now, but he turned out to be among the strongmen.
These three bandit leaders, from the beginning of the war to the present, have never taken the lead in fighting on the front line. They mostly drove their brothers forward to die.
Che suddenly wanted to yell and curse, but suddenly his whole body was shaken, his scalp was numb, and he looked in front of him with wide eyes. I saw the very beautiful young man leaping high, leaping over the strongman in front of him, and flying straight towards him.
It was over, he was discovered, Che Tu licked his dry and numb lips with his tongue and looked at Shui Congyue who was approaching rapidly.
It was too late to run away at this moment, so I had to bite the bullet and face him. This man's bravery has just been seen at a glance. Che Tu knew that this man was the biggest threat in today's battle, so he gathered all the warriors here, just to see if he could kill the opponent.
At the beginning, he felt there was hope. Because this person does not have any powerful or weird potential field, nor does he show any earth-shattering or breathtaking magical powers. He is just like a martial artist who has just entered the country, relying on his body and bravery to fight all the way.
But while driving and driving, he discovered that this man was like a sharp sword, the more he killed, the sharper it got. Another example is a towering mountain that remains unmoved even though it has been hit hard by more than a dozen flails.
It was as if no matter how hard he attacked, he would never fall. It feels terrible and really frustrating.
Chetu raised his flail in anger and smashed it at the roaring halberd. Amidst the roar, the spiked iron hammer on the flail was swung away, leaving a deep gap.
Che Tu felt like he was hit hard by ten, no, a hundred Kui oxen, and he almost flailed away.
What kind of divine power is this? Che suddenly wanted to escape, but the speed of the halberd was faster than he thought. This time, the flail's iron chain was cut off, and the sharp crescent blade fell on Chatu's body, making an unpleasant crunching sound. It cut from the left shoulder to the right rib, dividing the tall body into two parts.
You really shouldn't have shouted those words. Before Che Tu could sigh with emotion, he had already chopped off his head with a wave of his big halberd.
Shui Congyue completed the beheading mission in the blink of an eye, but without any reaction, she turned around and charged into the group of warriors again to support the fearless soldiers who were still fighting.
Wu Gen was overjoyed when he saw this. He was about to imitate Shui Congyue's method and prepare to spread his thrusts when suddenly there was a loud sound of drums on the wall behind him.
Looking back, Wu Gen couldn't help but turn pale with shock. It turned out that Ji Yan was riding along the collapsed stone wall, directly riding to the top of the wall, and beating the war drum again.
You know, at this time, the village was in chaos, and there were stray arrows everywhere. If by chance one of them killed this aunt, how could I explain to Ji Ye, and how could I have the nerve to continue in the Iron Shou Province? Stay.
The battlefield is sometimes very evil. A strong general who survives a hundred battles will sometimes capsize in the ditch and be killed by an inconspicuous soldier or an arrow shot from nowhere.
What is this Zu Yuantong doing and where has he gone? Just as Wu Gen was about to turn around, he saw a figure appear in front of Ji Yan and cut off the arrows flying towards her.
Fortunately, Li Qi was here, and Wu Gen breathed a sigh of relief. In that case, take your life and let him go. As the drums sounded again, the fearless soldiers on the stockade were all refreshed.
On the other hand, the bandits' morale suddenly dropped a lot because they were killed in a sudden car accident. Wu Gen jumped over the chaotic crowd, came to Bu Kai's body in one step, and chopped him off without saying a word.
Bu Kai used a soft whip, just like his people. Seeing Wu Gen coming to kill, he quickly called for help from the oxen and whipped at Wu Gen.
The soft whip wrapped around the broken knife, spurting out several streams of white smoke, as if the whip was dragged on the ground and stained with dust, and the dust flew out again under the agitation.
But Wu Gen was different. When he suddenly saw the white smoke that seemed normal and almost the same as the quicklime the Fearless Army used, he knew in his heart that he had met a colleague, a poisoner.
Damn it, Wu Gen cursed in his heart and quickly held his breath to prevent himself from inhaling the poisonous smoke. The blade of the broken sword rose sharply, Wu Gen slashed three times in one breath, and cut the soft whip into three pieces, leaving a deep mark on Bukai's body.
If this Yin man hadn't retreated quickly, Wu Gen could have cut him in two with a clean slit like water from the moon.
Just as he was about to step forward, Wu Gen suddenly felt a little dizzy and his steps were stagnant.
"Slave dog, my medicine will take effect even if it touches your body. The luckier you are, the faster it will take effect." Bu Kai laughed wildly and took out two steel thorns from his sleeves and rushed towards Wu Gen.
Just as the body jumped up, a copper hammer flew from a distance and hit his back. With a thud, Bukai fell in front of Wu Gen, just under the tip of the broken knife.
It turned out that it was Bao Xiang, Cheng Jie and others who stopped Niu Ye. Seeing Wu Gen's hesitation, Bao Xiang threw the copper hammer in his hand as a hidden weapon, but unexpectedly he succeeded with one blow.
At this time, the treasure elephant has transformed into four arms, carrying two axes and two copper hammers, exactly like the statues in the temple.
"I am willing to surrender." Before Wu Gen could make any move, Bu Kai screamed under the tip of the knife. After his men tied Bu Kai tightly and inserted a steel drill into his abdomen, Wu Gen said coldly: "Tell your people to surrender." Bu Kai's face turned pale in pain. Although he was not dead, the steel was soldered into his body, forcibly blocking the circulation of Qi and blood.
After shouting a few times at the surroundings, many horse thieves put down their weapons. On Baoxiang's side, under the joint attack of several people, Niu had also been knocked unconscious by Cheng Jie's axe.
The three bandit leaders died and surrendered, and the fighting in the village quickly calmed down. In addition to the dead people in the yard, there were horse thieves squatting on the ground and holding their heads in surrender.
Wu Gen greeted Shui Congyue and Baoxiang, and prepared to lead people to the direction of Xiaozhai to intercept the horse thieves who came to help.
Shui Congyue glanced at Wu Gen,
"You are the leader of the village. Don't take the lead. Baoxiang and I will go there." Wu Gen's face stiffened. Shui Congyue was still worried about the fact that he had just acted arbitrarily as the leader of the village and had taken the lead in the attack. .
In desperation, and due to the urgent military situation, Wu Gen had to let the two of them join forces to lead troops outside the mountain, but Zhuo Ke and others stayed behind.
When Baoxiang was assigned to Baoxiang, it was because of his low cultivation level that he sent some experts to help him.
Now that Shui Congyue is on the side, there is no need for these people. Ha Ying came over excitedly,
"Master of the village, Lieutenant Bao's ability to find money is really extraordinary. As soon as he rushed into the village, he took us straight to a cave. In the cave, we found the thief's warehouse. There were countless spiritual jade, gold and silver in it." Wu Gen Upon hearing this, she became excited and secretly took a look at Ji Yan, who was standing on the wall. She had stopped beating the drum and was looking towards the outside of the mountain.
"You guys take some brothers, pick out the valuable ones first, and hide them in the back mountain. Remember, don't let people from Zu Yuantong discover them."
"I know." Ha Ying pulled Zhuo Ke, turned around and ran behind the stockade. After running two steps, Wu Gen shouted again,
"You know what's worth."
"I know, Lingyu." Ha Ying made a face at Wu Gen. Wu Gen breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hands to tell the two of them to get lost.
This time he went to war, but he emptied his family fortune. If he couldn't make up for it, Wu Genke would really be bankrupt, and he could only find a way to pretend to be a horse thief and rob those small families.
