Mr. Pingguo, remember last time we encountered a mudslide over there in front, right? "
It turned out that Tang Ping's pickup truck had a talented person in front of it, but when Lao Cui and Lao Du saw the steam engine truck, they insisted on driving it for fun.
The two had practiced driving a lot in the village, and their driving skills were naturally good, so they let Xiang Longhe sit in Tang Ping's pickup truck.
The person driving now is Wang Qingluan.
Tang Ping looked at the direction Xiang Long was pointing, nodded and said, "Yes, it was because we encountered a mudslide here that we ran to the mountain, and then we met Gu Xiaotang."
Wang Qingluan had only heard about it in general, but he didn't know the details. After hearing the two people talk about it, he asked curiously: "What happened at that time, please tell me in detail?"
So Xiang Long told the story of how several people escaped in embarrassment, then met Gu Xiaotang on the mountain, and Tang Ping was kidnapped. Wang Qingluan laughed loudly.
Of course, this Changtu Highway definitely does not go up the mountain, but goes around the mountain. After passing a bend, two big trees suddenly fell on the road.
Wang Qingluan suddenly stopped the car, and the steam engine truck driven by Lao Cui and Lao Du behind him naturally also stopped.
Old Pei, who was sitting next to Tang Ping, was still sleeping with his eyes squinted. However, Xue Li, who was in the passenger seat, took out the folding bow Tang Ping gave him, and then looked ahead warily.
After all, there can be no such big trees on the roadside. Now, two big trees have fallen directly in the middle of the road, blocking the road. It is obvious that someone did it deliberately.
And there were quite a few people ambushing them on the hillsides on both sides of the fallen tree.
However, these people were also a little dumbfounded. One of the young men with dysentery said to the young people around him: "Boss, what is this?"
This is a group of bandits. After the Changtu Highway was opened to traffic, many businessmen traveling between Turks and Chang'an began to use this road. They came to rob it today.
But what I didn't expect was not a caravan, but three big iron lumps.
"Brother, this seems to be the steam locomotive written in the Tang Dynasty Weekly!" One of the bandits recognized it and couldn't help but feel proud. Among these bandits, he was one of the few literate people.
"Steam locomotive? Isn't that something unique to the Tang Dynasty government?"
"Yeah, I've never heard of a caravan that could use something like this!"
"Boss? What should we do? Let's..."
For a moment, all the bandits were panicked. They had to know that they could just rob the caravan, but this was the steam locomotive of the Tang Dynasty government. This was the first time they had seen this thing today, but Datang Weekly was not short of it at that time. Report this stuff.
Basically, although many people in the Tang Dynasty have not seen it with their own eyes, they all know that this is a very remarkable thing newly created by the imperial court.
The person who can drive this car out must have a very complicated identity. If he goes up to rob him, he will probably be chased by the court.
The leading young man also felt a little headache, but looking at the cargo compartment behind the truck, although it was covered with a tarpaulin, he knew that it was probably filled with supplies or goods, and it must be pulled by such a truck. It won't be a bargain.
My group had spent so much effort to get two trees blocking the road, and they were already at the end of their rope.
If we let these people go, we still don’t know when the next caravan will come.
You know, in order to have the strength to do today's job, everyone ate up the last bit of food reserves.
After hesitating for a while, the young man pointed to the vehicles below and said, "Look, there are three cars, and each car can hold up to less than twenty people. We have almost more than twenty people here. We don't do anything hard, as long as They just pay the toll."
Seeing that the others were still hesitant, he added: "We don't know where our dinner tonight is. At least ask them to give us something to eat. Do you think there are more than ten people in their three cars? What's behind the car?" There must be food for them along the way, no matter what, they must share some with us!"
Finally, under his "persuasive temptation", these bandits also made up their mind.
"Okay, boss, just do what you say!"
In order to encourage themselves, these people unconsciously grasped the weapons in their hands.
At this time, Tang Ping's vehicle stopped, and Xiang Long, Xue Li, and Lao Cui and Lao Du all got out of the car to check.
Because the car was driving faster, the Xuanjia Cavalry of the brigade was still two kilometers away, but Xiang Long had already called the leading general behind him through the headset to speed up.
Even if there is real danger, they only need to be able to hold on for about a quarter of an hour.
Lao Cui and Lao Du jumped onto the bed of the pickup truck. Inside were the steel plates they prepared, and there were buckles on the top of the pickup truck's cab.
With a few clicks, three steel plates blocked the glass on the front and sides of the pickup truck.
These glass are not bulletproof glass. If the enemy has a powerful crossbow, it will still be unable to block it. However, if there is a meter of special steel plate blocking it, even if the bed crossbow or winch crossbow comes, due to the material, the arrow of the crossbow cannot penetrate this layer. Steel plate.
Although the other two steam engine trucks did not have such equipment, they were still made of steel. Soon, they were driven by their original drivers and formed a triangle with Tang Ping's pickup truck.
Xiang Long, Xue Li and others stood on the chariot with weapons and shields.
This series of operations was completed almost simultaneously with a group of bandits rushing down the slopes on both sides.
Before the bandits could rush forward, a defense system had been established.
Xue Li even aimed an arrow at one of the bandits, hoping to gain the upper hand.
There was a sound of "dang", and with Xue Li's archery skills, the arrow was actually blocked by the bandit crossing the steel knife, holding the handle of the knife with one hand, and pressing the body of the knife with the other.
"Huh..." Xue Li exclaimed. You must know that the folding bow he is holding now is not as powerful as the Sky-shattering bow he usually uses, but he did not expect to be blocked by a bandit.
The one who blocked the arrow was the leader of this group of bandits, and he was still feeling frightened.
The arrow just now went straight to the center of his eyebrows. If this arrow had been the other people in his group, they would have been killed on the spot. .
Even though he blocked it, his hands were numb from the shock.
This also made him dare not rush forward, let alone say that the bow is faster than seven steps, and the sword is fast within seven steps.
For the marksman on the other side, the closer you are, the more powerful and faster the bow is, and the harder it is to defend against.
As soon as he stopped, all the bandits also stopped and stood beside him.
