Nie Chen's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
I saw Weng Qiuchan standing proudly on the hillside, quickly opening his bow and setting an arrow. Every arrow he shot accurately hit a bandit's head.
No need for a second arrow at all.
This girl is so secretive, is her archery so accurate?
A hundred steps can pierce the Yang!
Just when Nie Chen was surprised, Weng Qiuchan suddenly turned his arrow and shot an arrow towards Nie Chen.
In the blink of an eye, the arrow came to Nie Chen's eyes, passed through his neck, and hit the person behind him.
Nie Chen looked back and saw a bandit who was trying to attack him while he was in a daze. He was covering his neck and fell to the ground twitching.
This archery technique!
Only then did Nie Chen understand that the two arrows that shot Zhang Taonian earlier were not caused by Weng Qiuchan's failure to shoot Zhang Taonian to death, but because she deliberately failed to kill Zhang Taonian. She wanted to create an opportunity for Nie Chen to kill Zhang Taonian with his own hands.
Because Nie Chen said that he would personally kill Zhang Taonian to vent his anger on Weng Qiuchan.
How could Weng Qiuchan not create opportunities for him?
Nie Chen gave Weng Qiuchan a thumbs up, then charged towards the other bandits with his knife.
Nie Chen's martial arts was not very good. Arrows flew from behind him from time to time, hitting the bandits beside him. It was Weng Qiuchan who was protecting him.
With someone protecting him behind him, Nie Chen became more and more courageous as he fought. He kept waving the steel knife in his hand, killing enemies one by one, and accumulated a lot of combat experience in actual combat.
As Zhang Taonian died in the battle, several other big bosses were killed by the big boss of Qingfeng Village, Lin Guang, Ma Niujie Dazhuang and others. The bandits were leaderless. In addition, Qingfeng Village shouted surrender and would not kill. Soon, the bandits were leaderless. , the bandits knelt down and surrendered.
After a crushing fierce battle, more than half of the more than 1,500 bandits were killed or injured, and the rest all surrendered.
There were cavalry cruising around, but no one could escape.
When counting the number of people, Nie Chen was surprised to find that among the more than 700 bandits who surrendered, more than 300 were from Black Wind Ridge.
The reason for this is partly because Zhang Taonian treated them too badly and they were unwilling to sacrifice their lives, and partly because there are many people in Qingfeng Village who were from Heifeng Ridge before, and they are very fond of each other. know.
Everyone knew that the other party was a group of poor people who shared the same problem, and they did not use any deadly force during the fight. The people who had taken refuge before told the people on the opposite side how good Qingfeng Village was, and those people naturally surrendered early.
After the black bandits were picked out and killed, the remaining ones were all escorted back to the stronghold and given ideological education before being armed.
Da Zhuang walked to the top of the hillside, hugged his hands and said,
"First Master, Second Master, in this battle, three of our spearmen died and one was seriously injured, and one crossbowman died. A total of twelve people were slightly injured, which does not affect the combat effectiveness."
The headmaster nodded and said,
"Take good care of the seriously injured brother. If he can still move, let him manage logistics. For the dead brother, ask if he has any family members and send the pension money to their family members."
"clear."
There are no immortals in a war. With more than 2,000 people on both sides fighting, it is impossible to completely annihilate each other without any casualties. It is extremely rare for Qingfeng Village to achieve such a beautiful record.
Just after they finished talking, on the official road to the west, Skinny Monkey suddenly rushed over on horseback.
"Master, it's not good, some officers and soldiers are coming!"
"What? Officers and soldiers are here to join in the fun? How many people are there?"
The headmaster frowned.
"About five hundred people, pulling some carriages, without any flags. I don't know whose soldiers and horses they are, but they should not be from the county government. Their equipment and military capacity are much better than those of the county government."
Nie Chen immediately shouted,
"Take out a hundred people to guard the prisoners, and prepare the rest for battle. It's just a fool's errand to think of a mere 500 officers and soldiers trying to capture us!"
The leader immediately mobilized his troops, turned his guns, and aimed them at the official road to the west. All the broken crossbows were pulled up and arranged in array.
Not long after, a team appeared in the west. The soldiers were all wearing iron armor, holding weapons in their hands, and looked neat.
"This army seems to be more capable than the county government. To capture them all will be no less difficult than defeating the thousand-and-five bandits."
Nie Chen said calmly.
The head master nodded and looked up. When he saw the leader of the team, his expression changed slightly and he immediately said,
"Put away your weapons, this is not an enemy!"
Da Zhuang also nodded and said,
"Master, Mr. Jin is indeed here."
"Come on, come with me to greet you!"
The leader waved his hand, got on his horse, and galloped over with Nie Chen and others.
Although the boss didn't say it clearly, Nie Chen also knew that these were the boss's old colleagues.
They are all subordinates of King Pingxi.
They galloped all the way to the bottom of the slope and met each other.
The old man at the head was the first to laugh and said,
"General Weng, you're fine. Put away your divine crossbow quickly. I can't hold back that arrow."
The boss smiled and said,
"Mr. Jin is joking. If the arrow is fired, I will stand in front of you, Mr. Jin."
"Grandpa Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Weng Qiuchan dismounted and walked over, came to the old man's side, raised his face and smiled.
"Qiu Chan has grown so big. The last time I saw you, you were still a teenage girl. Now you have grown so tall.
When I came here, it wasn't your father who wrote a letter saying that he wanted to sell us some big killer weapon, so why didn't I just come over here with a lot of money? "
The leader smiled, came to the older general, punched him hard on the chest, and said,
"Lao Chai, you are not dead yet."
The older general smiled and said,
"Oh, I'm ashamed to say it. I just heard that you led troops to fight with others. I was so anxious that I wanted to put on my wings and fly over, for fear that I wouldn't be able to catch you and be hacked to death and not be able to eat.
As a result, you old boy actually defeated the enemy and did not die. I was so angry that I couldn't even eat. "
"Hahaha, I can't even die if you old guy dies."
The boss laughed.
Seeing how they were joking without scruples, Nie Chen could see how deep the relationship between them was.
This kind of true love between men is created by fighting on the battlefield. It can only be cultivated by fighting side by side and supporting each other countless times.
Nie Chen was very envious and yearned for him.
Mr. Jin said,
"General Weng, why don't you introduce these heroes in your village to me? I just saw you charging to kill them. These are all brave generals with unmatched courage."
The boss smiled and said,
"Mr. Jin, please stop making fun of me. I'm just a bandit den, so I can't be a great hero.
This is our second master of Qingfeng Village, Nie Chen. All the weapons mentioned in my letter were invented by him himself. "
Hearing this, Mr. Jin turned to look at Nie Chen, his eyes brightening.
