"ah……"
A shrill scream pierced the silence of the winter night.
Immediately afterwards there was a rapid sound of a gong, which was an emergency signal that the cottage was under attack, and the entire cottage instantly became commotion.
"What did you do!"
Guan Yu was furious.
After they entered the village, they were about to divide their troops and attack each bandit's house. Suddenly, a bandit came out of the house. Everyone quickly lay down on the ground and did not dare to move.
Fang Shiqing sent Guan Yu and Zhan Zhao to deal with the bandit.
The two approached quietly. I don't know whether Zhan Zhao was nervous or overconfident in himself. He suddenly jumped out and stabbed Guan Yu without cooperating with him.
The knife comes out quickly!
The knife is very accurate!
The tip of the knife went straight to the heart of the bandit's chest. The killing techniques in the barracks are not flashy at all, just killing people with their swords. It’s not that Zhan Zhao is not good at his skills, he is just too confident and left his partner behind to do it alone.
Screaming is the best alarm, and the sentry who was awakened immediately sounded the gong to warn.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The rapid sound of the gong woke up the whole village.
Upon seeing this, Fang Shiqing decisively ordered a fight. The county soldiers jumped up from the ground and rushed towards their target.
Hong Rengan was awakened by the sound of the gong, picked up a knife and rushed towards the outer door. As soon as he opened the door, he was faced with a cold light, and he instinctively dodged behind the door.
"Attsu!"
A featherless arrow is nailed to the door panel.
Without any hesitation, he immediately gave up his plan to go out through the front door and went out through the back window instead. When he came out of the room, he reached out and grabbed a panicked bandit and shouted:
"Why are you panicking?"
"Boss...Boss, someone is attacking the stronghold!"
The bandit stammered in reply.
Hong Rengan was so angry that he flew into a rage, "Of course I know that someone is attacking the village. Why are you panicking? Is the knife in your hand a piece of wood?"
He raised the knife in his hand and said, "If you dare to run around again, believe it or not, I will chop you with a knife!"
After drinking down the bandits, he raised his arms and shouted:
"Brothers, don't panic, follow me and fight out. Kill one and you'll be enough, kill two and you'll earn something...!"
Bandits are all desperadoes, and Hong Rengan's shout instantly revives them with full health, revealing their ferocious nature.
They quickly gathered, swords and guns in hand, ready to fight at any time.
The torches were quickly lit, and the village was exposed to the firelight. Only then did the bandits see clearly that there were only dozens of people attacking them. Hong Rengan quietly wiped away a cold sweat.
Since the establishment of the mountain stronghold, this is the first time it has been attacked.
Although he is a bandit, he is not an ordinary bandit. The magistrate of Shanyang was his sworn brother, and he always thought that no one in Shanyang would dare to touch him.
Just now he thought it was the imperial court sending officers and soldiers to suppress bandits!
If the officers and soldiers suppressed the bandits and the eldest brother did not report the news, it means that the eldest brother has died. This is what scares him the most. If the cottage is gone, it can be rebuilt. If the big brother is gone, he, the king of the mountain, will be unemployed.
Banditry is a high-risk profession. If there is no protective umbrella over one's head, the boss is not worthy. By the way, isn't Zhu Chongjiu a tough guy? As the leader of the Green Forest Alliance, he claims to have hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command.
What happens in the end?
The head must have been dried long ago.
This is the result of not having a big brother at the top and thinking that you are the big brother!
He dare not forget the lessons learned from the past!
Therefore, once his daughter loses his protective umbrella, he would rather lose his job than face his own fate.
When he took a closer look by the firelight, he turned out to be dozens of men in black attacking him. In the middle of winter, in the dark, wearing night clothes and a black scarf covering his face, he looks cool, but he doesn't look like an officer or soldier.
His courage instantly grew.
Then he became angry.
The freezing cold weather made me sweat all over because of the cold weather, which was unbearable for anyone.
"Who are you?" He stood on a platform, put one hand on his hip, and pointed the tip of his knife at the county soldiers.
"..."
"Captain, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I've caused everyone trouble."
Zhan Zhao regretted it so much that he wanted to stab himself.
If he hadn't taken action without permission and ignored his cooperation, the bandits would not have had the opportunity to warn them and they would have failed.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Fang Shiqing scolded coldly.
"We'll deal with your matters when you go back, prepare to fight!"
"Ximen, pay attention to Mao Shiba. He has never appeared. He must be hiding in the dark looking for opportunities to attack us."
Ximen Feixue's golden sword was unsheathed, his eyes alert, while the county soldiers quickly took a step back and formed a fighting formation. Fang Shiqing held the sword in his left hand and put his right hand on his waist. He stared at the bandits surrounding him with a stern face.
Hong Rengan was stunned for a moment. The group of people in front of him were all surrounded, but they didn't panic at all. They seemed to want to fight with him!
Come on then, who have I ever been afraid of?
He rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Brothers, this group of thieves dare to attack our village and kill our brothers. We will never let them leave alive. Kill!"
"kill!"
The bandits roared wildly, the sound tearing through the night sky, scaring the hornet birds to fly away quickly, while the bandits swarmed towards the county soldiers like a frenzy.
They were very fast and could reach a distance of about eighty steps in the blink of an eye. Fang Shiqing quickly took off the gun from his waist, raised his hand, and pulled the trigger...
The bandits who rushed up saw a flash of fire.
Then a muffled sound was heard.
Before they understood what happened, or they didn't even think about what the fire and muffled sound were, a large piece of the bandit who was rushing at the front suddenly fell down.
Some were lying on the ground motionless, like dead people; some were wailing and rolling as if in pain.
Well……
The bandits who didn't fall looked at each other.
They didn't dare to go any further.
Someone squatted down to check and found that the bandits who were not moving were actually dead. The bandits who were still alive had several wounds of various sizes on their bodies, and the wounds were bleeding.
"Boss, brothers are injured and dead. What's going on?"
Hong Rengan was also secretly surprised.
Zhu Chongjiu died in a thunderstorm, and everyone in the world knew about it. He thought to himself: Could it be that they also died from the thunder? But something didn't seem right. The sound was dull and quiet, not as earth-shattering as the legend said.
Who are they?
Why attack the cottage at night?
Fang Shiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had suppressed the bandits with one shot. If the bandits had been allowed to rush up just now, a fight would have been inevitable.
The two sides were fighting hand to hand, which was what she least wanted to see.
She motioned to Guan Yu to speak.
"People on the other side, listen, we only want Hong Rengan. If you don't want to die, just leave quickly. We promise not to hurt you."
"Hong Ren has committed many evil deeds and will be punished by heaven. Do you want to be buried with him?"
Hong Rengan was unhappy when he heard this.
Who the hell is this?
You actually tried to divorce me in front of me. Even if your brain is wet, you wouldn't do it like this, right?
"Brothers, this group of people has unknown origins and is really hateful. Don't be afraid. The machete in our hands is not a piece of wood. It kills gods when it encounters gods and ghosts when it encounters ghosts. I and I will rush forward and kill them."
"If you kill one, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver..."
he shouted, brandishing a machete.
