He whispered: "Master Xu, do we need it..."
What Yang Shiqi meant was to ask Xu Qin whether to call the forty-five soldiers on standby outside the village. It would be safer.
Xu Qin grinned and waved his hand.
There are eleven guards in the first small flag here, but they are all elite veterans, including Xu Sanlang and himself.
This kind of small-scale village fighting is enough to handle it.
Get on your horse and run over. Although the village is not small, it can be reached in a short trot on horseback.
The battle situation ahead is already visible in the distance.
"Yes, yes..."
Li Xiaoqi led ten cavalrymen and arrived at the scene first.
When they saw the bloody and tragic scene in front of them, the eyes of these battle-hardened Yilin guards suddenly became sharp.
On the grass with a radius of more than a hundred steps, there were more than forty men lying in various directions, some had died, and some were twitching and moaning in pain.
The entire grassland has been stained red with blood, and the low-lying areas are slowly accumulating into puddles of blood one after another.
Ten feet away, there were still more than twenty men holding wild goose feather sabers and wearing black samurai uniforms gathered around.
The leader was a young man wearing Mingguang armor, staring at a seriously injured man in front of him.
One of his arms was cut off, his abdomen was stabbed twice, and his disembowelled intestines were spilled out.
I guess death is calling.
His lips were slightly open, and he held a long knife tightly in his right hand. The tip of the knife was inserted into the grass to support his body. Although his whole body was shaking, he tried his best not to fall.
Everyone on Xu Qin's side knew him, it was Panlong, the bald and green-skinned leader who spoke just now.
It seems that eating decapitated rice and drinking decapitated wine is not a joke at all. They all tried their best and died generously.
This is also a kind of Jianghu sentiment.
But the opponent is too powerful, whether in terms of numbers, weapons and equipment, or martial arts.
But they still defeated nearly twenty people from the other side.
The young man wearing Mingguang armor looks like he is also a soldier, or he once was.
Because his equipment and demeanor speak for themselves.
He is the magistrate of Gushan Town, the third son of Wu Pegui, one of the few wealthy families in Qinghe County, and is known as Wu Laosan in the world.
He raised his foot and kicked Panlong over, snorted coldly, then turned around and glared at these uninvited guests.
"Who are you, who dare to break into the territory of Gushan Town?!"
His eyes were sharp and murderous.
In addition to the two master characters and a young master, the other twelve guards on tall war horses can be seen to the naked eye as warriors with excellent martial arts.
The one who comes is not good.
"So, Gushan Town is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. If you don't have enough courage, you can't come in?"
Xu Qin joked with interest.
Wu Laosan shouted coldly:
"I'm too lazy to rub my lip with you. I don't care who you are. If you are wise, get out of here. Otherwise, there are people from our Wu family compound around here. Don't blame us for being rude to you!"
What he said was absolutely true.
There are more than a hundred servants and thugs in the Wu family compound, not counting the Hongze Lake water bandits, there are even more, thousands of people.
The reason why he did not attack rashly was because he was afraid that the opponents were all cavalry.
The regular combat strength ratio of cavalry to infantry is ten to one.
He only has about twenty people left under him now, which is really not enough for the other party to look at.
Let's scare him first. If we can retreat, that's fine. If we can't, it won't be too late to take action.
As long as you hold on, the servants in the compound will rush over when they hear the sound.
Xu Qin looked at the other party calmly.
This was the first time in his life that he had seen the private armed forces of the Ming Dynasty's bullies.
Such bloody killings are simply lawless.
The sight almost ruined his outlook.
"Young master of the Wu family, you privately raise armed servants, hold the standard Yan Ling saber that is prohibited by the imperial court, hide the Mingguang armor, and kill without permission. You care about human lives. Any one of them is enough to kill your three Wu clans. Do you know your crime?! "
Xu Qin was so angry that his face was ashen.
Hearing this, Wu Laosan sneered twice, and a chill flashed in his eyes.
"A man dares to do something! This young master is here to eliminate harm for the people. My people are a militia group sanctioned by the garrison general of Huai'an Prefecture. These dead people are all bandits arrested by the Qinghe County Yamen. The remaining people are all Can’t run away!”
Very arrogant.
"Can you and others control the chaos easily?"
Xu Qin's eyes already had murderous intent.
"Anyone who goes against the Wu clan is a rioter!"
"Don't talk about the emperor's will here."
Wu Laosan uttered wild words, "In Gushan Town, the Wu family is the emperor!"
At this moment, Panlong, the green-skinned leader who had fallen to the ground, opened his eyes as if he was having a flashback, pursed his lips at Xu Qin, and a large pool of blood flowed out in an instant.
After looking at the other party's eyes and mouth, he seemed to be telling Xu Qin and others to leave quickly.
Otherwise, it will be too late and no one will be able to escape.
Xu Qin nodded to the dying Panlong to express respect and gratitude, then turned his horse's head and retreated.
Wu Laosan thought that the young master was scared, so he grinned with a smile.
But before his smile could dissipate, the young master suddenly waved his hand back and commanded through gritted teeth:
"Kill them all, leave no one behind!"
Li Xiaoqi and his Yi Linwei were impatient for a long time.
From their point of view, it is a waste of expression for the Lord to spend all his time talking to these country tycoons.
Now seeing the imperial envoy's signal, Li Xiaoqi pulled out the Yan Fei Dao on his saddle with a loud cry, raised his arms and shouted, "The imperial envoy has an order to kill these rebels in front of us."
"kill!"
The ten Yilin Guards drew out their gleaming Yanling knives one after another and formed a fan-shaped charge formation.
"Ah...Yan Ling Saber, they are officers and soldiers!"
Wu Laosan knew the goods and was so frightened that his face turned green.
He never expected that the young master and his bodyguards were actually plainclothes officers and soldiers.
"Hey, please wait a moment, we all have something to discuss!"
Seeing this scene, Wu Laosan immediately became frightened.
He served in the garrison of General Mei Yin of Huai'an Prefecture in the Jianwen Dynasty, served in hundreds of households, and had some reputation for bravery in the army.
He knew that anyone holding a wild goose feather saber and riding a tall horse must be Yan Qi.
They are all the elites of King Yan.
With Yan Qi as their enemy, not to mention more than twenty foot soldiers, even more than two hundred people are not enough for them to look at.
Unless the water bandits on Hongze Lake are invited to help.
But it's too late now.
A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses until he passes this test.
But he misjudged the target and misjudged the situation.
The young master in front of him is more cunning than the old fox.
How could he not figure out Wu Laosan's conspiracy?
"Take action and fight quickly."
Xu Qin ignored him and issued the order coldly.
A strong murderous intent spread from his mouth, as if the air was solidifying and turning into ice mist.
"Brothers, rush for me!"
Li Xiaoqi received the order, pointed his Yanling saber forward, and clamped the horse's belly tightly with both legs.
The war horses roared out and charged towards Wu Laosan and the others.
"kill…"
Ten Yilin guards formed a fan shape and rushed toward the enemy.
"Da da da... da da..."
The sound of horse hooves galloping was particularly loud in the quiet field.
Speaking of these palace servants, except for Wu Laosan, the head of a hundred households, who was well-informed and knew a little about infantry and cavalry tactics, the other twenty or so people had never faced off against cavalry at all.
I was already scared out of my wits.
