The Cheese River Gathering, Qiao Family Courtyard.

After watching the third son and his group leave, Qiao Siyuan suddenly rang out something, and immediately turned to Qiao An's family and said, "Second, you should send someone to Yingzhou Special Office (now Fuyang City) to ask for help from the regiment commander Chu Jingming, saying that a large number of bandits appeared in Quanshan area, and Anguo's security team was in a siege and was in danger. Please send someone to reinforce him!"

"Yes, I'll make arrangements now!" Qiao An's family responded quickly, then turned around and left.

Qingchengji Town Wugongwai, Quanshan.

Quanshan is just a small hill in northern Anhui, not big, with a radius of about three miles, and the highest point on the top of the mountain is only one or two hundred meters. However, the mountain and its surroundings are densely vegetation and dense forests. If it were later, it would be a good place for relaxing chatting locally.

However, in this era of warlords fighting and bandits rampant, such a mountain has become a place for small groups of bandits. Just half a year ago, more than a dozen scattered soldiers and scattered soldiers from some unknown places came here. The leader named Zhang Huzi was cruel and ruthless. After absorbing some local gangsters, a force gradually formed, and in the Quanshan area he occupied the mountains as kings and became bandits.

Since Quanshan guards the Aokiji Highway, it is very convenient for these bandits to act, so robbery and murder and robbery happen from time to time. Not only that, these bandits often plunder the surrounding villages, rob food and property, and rape women. They can be said to have committed many evil deeds and committed many evil deeds.

The merchants and the people nearby who often travel to and from Qingcheng and Zhiheji areas were deeply hurt and miserable. It is precisely because of this that Chu Jingming, the colonel of the security regiment stationed in Yingzhou Special Office, ordered Qiao Anguo to lead the security team stationed in Zhiheji to eliminate the bandits.

After receiving the order, Qiao Anguo immediately led his troops to clear the attack, but an unexpected situation occurred. Originally, there were only thirty or forty bandits, more than ten guns, and the others were all using some cold weapons. Qiao Anguo had already mastered these information, but he did not take action without the order to transfer the peak.

When he led his troops to the Quanshan area and surrounded the bandits' nests on the mountain to be wiped out in one fell swoop, he found that at least two or three hundred bandits were gathered at the foot of the mountain. What shocked Qiao Anguo even more was that the bandits at the foot of the mountain actually had a shot, except for all the rifles, there were several light machine guns. The equipment was so exquisite that it was shocking.

Without thinking too much, he immediately captured the bandits' nest on the mountain and captured several prisoners who were left to bait. Knowing that the situation was not good, he ordered his confidant Cao Er to break out before the bandits had completely formed an encirclement and rushed back to Zhiheji to ask for help.

He led his subordinates to seize the mountain and defended him, waiting for help.

………………………….

Next to a rock on the top of the mountain, a young officer with a little stubborn face and handsome and burly figure was wearing military uniforms and big leather boots. He was stepping on the rock with his left foot, holding a telescope in his hands, observing the situation of the bandits at the foot of the mountain. This person was Qiao Anbang's elder brother, Qiao Anguo, the eldest son of the Qiao family.

Around him, the soldiers of the security team were waiting for the rocks, trees and simple fortifications with guns. The bandits at the foot of the mountain had already launched four or five attacks. Although they were all repelled, the security team's ammunition was also consumed very well.

Qiao Anguo was calm on the surface, but in fact he was already anxious inside. Although he had sent Cao Er to ask for help, how could he not know about the situation of Zhiheji?

The armed forces of Zhiheji are nothing but their own security team. Since their armed servants were expanded into security teams, they have never been formed again, so reinforcements are impossible for Zhiheji to arrive.

Although Yingzhou is stationed with a security regiment of Chu Jingming, Yingzhou is nearly 100 kilometers away. Even if Chu Jingming is coming to reinforce now, it will take at least one or two days. If the security team has sufficient ammunition, Qiao Anguo will still be sure to fight. However, the security team originally had fewer ammunition equipment, and with the consumption of normal training, each soldier now has less than twenty bullets.

After a fierce battle, the ammunition was consumed so much that the situation was already in danger.

The reason why he asked Cao Er to break out was not to hope for reinforcements, but to be able to report a letter to his family and notify his family by the way that if the situation is not good, he will immediately move his family. After all, the number of bandits here suddenly increases. Once the security team is eliminated, Chiheji will lose the barrier, and these bandits will definitely loot Chiheji.

But he didn't know that Cao Er was eager to save his master and did not understand his intention at all. Instead, he tried his best to ask for help. However, even if Cao Er understood Qiao Anguo's intention, Qiao Siyuan and his family would never abandon their son and would definitely try to rescue him.

While Qiao Anguo was observing, a report sounded behind him: "Captain, I just interrogated those bandits. From them, I learned that the bandits surrounding us at the foot of the mountain were not the original Zhang Huzi people."

Qiao Anguo turned around and saw his deputy captain Wang Dingsheng coming over and asked, "Oh? The bandits at the foot of the mountain belong to that strand?"

"Wei Dexi!" Wang Dingsheng replied with a serious expression.

"What? Wei Dexi? Is it the bandit Wei Dexi who has been traversing northern Anhui for more than ten years?" Qiao Anguo was also shocked when he heard this.

"Yes! It's him. Two days ago, Wei Dexi led people to recruit Zhang Huzi, the bandits, and we just happened to be hit by us." Wang Dingsheng nodded and replied.

"Damn it! I actually met the old guy Wei Dexi. I said, how could the bandits have such excellent equipment!" Qiao Anguo cursed in surprise.

"Yes! In the northern Anhui area, only Wei Dexi can have such great strength. Captain, I really don't understand how this old thing developed. A group of bandits are even more awesome than our regular army!" Wang Dingsheng said with a serious expression.

"Just like today, he annexed a small group of bandits and absorbed gangsters, some outlaws, and even some wanderers and brave soldiers. This is his way to expand his strength. Did he see their machine guns? That should be carried by the defeated soldiers he collected." Qiao Anguo explained.

"This old guy really has a chance."

"Without some ability, he can't have been in northern Anhui for more than ten years. It seems that my brothers have encountered tough problems today. Dingsheng, are you afraid?" Qiao Anguo put away his telescope and asked indifferently.

"I'm afraid of a ball, captain, as long as you say something, I will dare to go down and fight these doggy days now. Do you believe it?" Wang Dingsheng said with a glaring look on his face.

"Well! Good brother, I believe!" Qiao Anguo patted Wang Dingsheng on the shoulder and then said, "Let's have a good rest and retain your physical strength. If possible, kill that old guy Wei Dexi and eliminate harm to the people."

"Yes!" Wang Dingsheng agreed with a loud promise.

At the foot of the mountain, there were seven or eight bandits holding rifles standing around, guarding each other.

In the Tuao, several leaders gathered together to discuss.

"Brother! What are we waiting for? Just rush forward and destroy these shit security teams!" A sturdy little boss said to the bearded man with a striking scar on his face in the middle. This person was Zhang Huzi.

"That is, if these security teams are destroyed, there is nothing in the area of ​​Chiheji. We brothers can go into the county town to rob. At that time, there will be money and beautiful women, but everything will be available." Another small leader with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek nodded and echoed.

"Women, money, you can have these at any time. The most important thing is that the security team has more than 100 fast guns and a few light machine guns. If you get them, our strength will be expanded to a certain extent." A middle-aged man with long eyebrows and rat eyes revealed a greedy look in his narrow eyes. This person is Wei Dexi's dog-headed military advisor, named Zhao Dechuan, with a lot of bad ideas, and colluded with Wei Dexi, and I don't know how many bad things he did.

"Old Zhao is right. With guns and strength, there is no shortage of women or money. However, this security team is really tenacious enough. If you force an attack, it may cause us a lot of trouble. Therefore, don't rush to attack for the time being, and you will surround yourself first. Even if they can't fly!" The bearded man said coldly. This person was Wei Dexi, who had been rampant in northern Anhui for more than ten years.

"Brother! There are so many dreams in the night. What if the security team comes with reinforcements?" Zhang Huzi asked with a worried look on his face.

"Reinforcements? Humph! I can't come anymore. I have already figured out the area around Zhiheji. Apart from this security team of the eldest young master of the Qiao family, there is no other force. Even the recent reinforcements are two hundred miles away. When they arrive, the brothers will finish their work. The purpose of coming to Zhiheji this time is to clean up the eldest young master of the Qiao family and his security team, and then give our brothers some money for the New Year from the Qiao family's account. Unexpectedly, the eldest young master of the Qiao family came to his door by himself, which saved me the trouble!" Wei Dexi said coldly.

"Brother! Then let's surround me first?" Zhang Huzi asked.

"Yes." Wei Dexi nodded and pondered for a moment, "Let's get around first."

"Yes!" Zhang Huzi lowered his head and responded, then turned around and wanted to leave.

"Slow down!" The dog-headed military advisor Zhao Dechuanzi rolled his eyes and waved his hand to stop Zhang Huzi.

"Old Zhao, what's the best way?" Wei Dexi asked.

"Brother, this security team has more than 100 guns, and its strength is not weak. As you said, a strong attack may cause us a lot of trouble. I have a way to keep them from keeping their armor!" Zhao Dechuan Thief said with a ferocity flashing in his eyes.

"What method should I say quickly!" Wei Dexi waved his hand and urged.

"First surround Quanshan, block the necessary roads to go down the mountain, and then let the brothers collect firewood, and let us set fire to the mountain!" Zhao Dechuan said with a treacherous voice.

"Okay! It's a good idea. Zhang Huzi, please inform your brothers immediately to collect firewood and prepare to burn the mountain. In addition, they are all vigilant and set up all the machine guns to prevent the security team from taking the opportunity to break through!" Wei Dexi said happily and ordered.

"Yes! Brother, don't worry. There is a cliff behind Quanshan. We all set up a few shots at the intersection down the mountain. The security team's bastards wanted to break through, but there was no door." Zhang Huzi patted his chest confidently and promised, then turned around and left quickly.
