Teams of gunmen entered the village, and all the bandits in Erliang Mountain Dazhai were taken into custody. The gunmen began to clean up the remaining bandits in the village.
"Master, Dazhai has been completely controlled by our people." Wang Chengyun said, "321 bandits from Erliang Mountain were captured and 125 bandits were killed."
He did not mention the injured bandits, because all these bandits were treated with last-ditch wounds and were included in the heads of those who were killed.
"How are our casualties?" Liu Heng asked.
Wang Yuncheng said: "Three people died and seventeen were injured. Two of the injured were seriously injured. I am afraid that I will no longer be able to stay in the Fire Gun Team."
When he spoke later, his voice became a little deeper.
These people who were killed and injured were all veterans who had fought all the way to Lingqiu, and he could call everyone by name.
Liu Heng thought for a while and said: "We can't treat those who can't stay in the Fire Gun Team badly. Send them to Xujiazhuang to do what we can. Remember, anyone who is injured while working for Hutou Village will be treated badly by our Hutou Village." If you want to support him for the rest of your life, you cannot let your brother bleed and shed tears."
"Yes." Wang Yuncheng straightened his chest and answered loudly.
Liu Heng patted Wang Yuncheng on the shoulder and said: "Go and help Mr. Zhao count the seizures this time. After finishing, arrange for people to send them down the mountain and load them on the cart we brought."
Wang Yuncheng agreed, put his right hand across his chest and saluted the unique military salute of Hutou Village, and then left.
Zhao Yutu came here mainly to count the harvest. Now that the copycat was captured, it was natural for him to come forward to count the seizures in Erliang Mountain.
Liu Heng stood outside the cottage.
War horses cannot carry people for a long time, and they are easily injured and disabled, and are taken away and taken care of by the cavalry. Zhao Wu and Zheng Tie led the escort team to protect Liu Heng.
This time, Liu Heng personally led the team to Daliang Mountain to completely eliminate the bandits in Daliang Mountain, clear obstacles for the Tiger Flag, and at the same time establish the prestige of the Tiger Flag, so that local powerful people will understand that the Tiger Flag's convoy is not easy to deal with. .
After solving the strongest Erliang Mountain, there are still three cottages left on the mountain, and they all need to be solved one by one.
Chen Daqing came to Liu Heng and said: "Master, my subordinates interrogated some captured bandits. Except for Pan Datou from Panjiazhai, who had already brought people back to Panjiazhai before we arrived, there are two remaining bandits from the village. The bandits are all in Erliang Mountain, and our people also captured a bandit leader named Huang Gaizi."
Liu Heng asked: "Have you found Shi Yunhu?"
"Dead." Chen Daqing said, "He was beaten to death by our gunmen. His upper body was smashed. If his subordinates hadn't called for someone from the cavalry to identify him, he would have almost not been recognized."
Liu Heng nodded.
Shi Yunhu, who tried to kill him several times at first, unexpectedly died in his hands in the end.
Although he did not kill him with his own hands, he died at the hands of his fire gunners. Moreover, these fire gunmen were the bandits of the rogue camp when Shi Yunhu was working as a cabinet, and some of them even had the lowest status in the camp. The refugees waiting.
"Find a place to bury the body! It's not a waste of time to meet each other." Liu Heng said to Chen Daqing.
Chen Daqing bowed and cupped his fists, saying: "Yes, I will make arrangements right away."
As soon as he left, Liu Heng said to Ma Yunjiu on the side: "Brother Yunjiu, do you want to see Shi Yunhu for the last time?"
Ma Yunjiu shook his head and said: "It's gone. What should be returned has already been returned to him."
At this moment, Wang Chengyun walked out of Dazhai with a gloomy look on his face, came straight to Liu Heng, saluted with his right arm across his chest, and then said: "Master, my subordinates found a cellar in Dazhai. "
When Ma Yunjiu heard this, he laughed and said, "So Vice Captain Wang has made a fortune this time. How much gold and silver were found in the cellar?"
Wang Yuncheng said with a gloomy face: "There was not even a tael of silver. I only found a few female corpses and some tortured women who were not human."
Ma Yunjiuyi frowned.
Although he had been to Erliang Mountain several times, he never knew that there were women captured in Erliang Mountain and locked up in cellars.
"Master, there are quite a few of these women, I'm afraid they won't be easy to deal with." Ma Yunjiu looked at Liu Heng.
If a woman is caught on the mountain, even if she is released, her husband's family or her natal family may not take in these women who have lost their virginity. The most likely possibility is that they will be forced to death and they will not recognize these women.
"How many women were found in the cellar?" Liu Heng asked Wang Yuncheng.
Wang Yuncheng said: "There are thirty-seven women in total. The shortest one took a month to arrest, the longest one half a year. The women who were captured earlier have all been tortured to death."
"These damn beasts." Ma Yunjiu couldn't help but curse.
Liu Heng frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said: "These women only have lives after all. Letting them go like this is no different than killing them."
"The boss means..." Wang Yuncheng looked at Liu Heng.
Liu Heng said: "Take them all with you on the return trip and send them to Lingqiu. Staying in Xujiazhuang will give them a way to survive."
He did this after careful consideration.
Wang Yuncheng came to see him because of these women. If he dealt with them casually, it would easily break Wang Chengyun's heart, or at least leave a knot in his heart.
Moreover, with the expansion of Hutou Village's power and the gradual expansion of the workshop, manpower shortages have begun to occur. Taking in these women is not completely useless.
"Yes, my subordinates will take these women down the mountain and send them to the motorcade at the foot of the mountain." Wang Yuncheng said respectfully, then turned and returned to the village.
Not long after, he and a team of gunmen came out of the village with a group of women with haggard faces.
These women were wearing the cotton armor equipped by the fire gunners. There was no trace of vitality on their bodies. Each of them looked numb. They followed the fire gunners and walked forward step by step. There was hardly any color in their eyes.
When these women passed by Liu Heng, he asked: "Are these women?"
Wang Chengyun glanced at the woman sympathetically and said, "Yes, they are them. There were originally several bodies of women, and my subordinates arranged for them to be buried."
"What happened to the cotton armor on their bodies? Don't tell me that these cotton armors were found in the bandit's village." After speaking, Liu Heng's voice suddenly became serious.
Wang Yuncheng was startled. Seeing Liu Heng's serious face, he stammered: "Yes, yes, my subordinates asked people to take off their cotton armors and give them to wear, but, but this is because these women are no longer fully clothed." , I feel pity for them when I see them."
"Are there no clothes in the village? Can't the captured bandits' clothes be taken off and given to them?" Liu Heng reprimanded, "Have you ever thought about what would happen to these gunmen without the protection of armor if they suddenly encounter resistance? ?”
"Yes, yes, my subordinate is wrong." Wang Yuncheng lowered his head.
"After you go back, go and get fifty lashes yourself. All the gunmen who gave these women the cotton armor will receive twenty lashes each." After a pause, Liu Heng continued, "Give me all the cotton armor on these women. Take off your clothes and give them to the captured bandits."
"Yes." Wang Yuncheng saw that the leader was really angry, and hurriedly arranged for someone to change the woman's cotton armor into the prisoner's clothes.
