Wen Xia stayed in the middle of the caravan, watching the bodyguards outside the caravan confronting the robbers who rushed out from nowhere.

"Brothers, I wonder which master you got rich under? Our chief escort has a pretty good relationship with several big masters nearby. I wonder if you can make it easier for us to report to the chief escort when we go back.

Yes, he will make a special trip to thank the boss for showing mercy."

The escort at the head was the main force of the escort. He would always be the one to resolve any issues.

After hearing what the escort said, the bandit standing at the front had a somewhat disdainful smile on his face.

"What you said is interesting. Our leader is a very famous person.

In the nearby prefectures, there is no one who doesn’t know our boss. If a random cat or dog comes here, he will say that he knows me and our boss, so let’s be noble and let them go.

Then we don’t have to do anything else this day, just raise our hands and let go. If this is the case, then what will we, the brothers, eat and drink?

You said that your chief bodyguard knows our boss, that doesn't matter, we can help your chief bodyguard go back to the village with us and let him explain the situation to our boss in person.

If we really made a mistake, I will personally apologize to you and send you down the mountain respectfully. In this way, if you made a mistake, you can stay in our village honestly.

If you want us to let you go just by talking about it, let alone me, even our boss is here. You have to ask the brothers behind me

Agree or disagree.”

After hearing what this bandit said, the bandits standing behind him raised their hands and shouted loudly.

"No, we don't agree."

"Why let them leave? I don't agree."

"Young men in charge, don't listen to their nonsense. Let's rob them first."

"Third master, don't talk nonsense with them. Take them all away."

After hearing the words of these bandits, the face of the escort leader became a little ugly at this time.

Their escort bureau can be regarded as the largest escort bureau. Not only in Fucheng, but even in other cities, their escort bureau also has divisions.

When people from their escort agency travel outside, whether they are bandits or members of the imperial army, they will give them some face.

This is the first time that someone doesn't give me face.

Moreover, he looks ugly now, not only because these people said such unpleasant things in front of their customers, which damaged the reputation of their escort agency. More importantly, the number of people on the other side is greater than that of their escort agency.

More.

If they really rush over regardless, he can't guarantee that their escort agency can protect everyone's safety. He can't even guarantee their own safety.

In this way, he not only has to fight with the bandits, but also prevents other brothers in his escort agency from fleeing, thereby discrediting their escort agency.

Even though he has been an escort for almost ten years and thinks he has some qualifications, he cannot guarantee that today's result will be good.

Sure enough, after hearing what these bandits said, the merchants in the caravan themselves became chaotic before the bandits could rush up.

Several businessmen who were occupied with many things looked pale and held some more valuable items tightly in their hands.

The caravan that Wen Xia followed was mainly the Du family's caravan. Not only did the Du family's caravan transport a lot of goods, but there were also many strong men in it.

After the goods are delivered to the place, these guys can do small jobs, responsible for unloading or doing other physical work. During the transportation of the goods, they can also serve as martial artists to ensure the safety of the goods.

In addition, the Du family caravan also hired many bodyguards to ensure the safety of the goods.

Precisely because this caravan seems safe enough, many smaller caravans will ask if they can go with large caravans when they set off.

Most leaders of large caravans would not refuse such a request.

After all, there are more people walking on the road, and even if many bandits want to pursue a caravan, they have to weigh it in their hearts first.

But similarly, because these small caravans are protected by the large caravans, if they really encounter any danger on the road, the escorts hired by the large caravans will give up on the small caravans if they have no spare capacity.

Protection of caravans.

It is precisely because of this that the two stewards of the small caravan were so nervous at this time. They had even begun to secretly look at which direction they could escape from the encirclement of these bandits and find a way out for themselves.

Whether it was the leader of the Du family caravan or Wen Xia, who was already in the Du family caravan, it was unclear at this time. There were actually people in the team who were already thinking about how to escape.

Du Sanniang specially greeted the people of the Du family caravan, and Wen Xia was temporarily considered a member of the Du family caravan. After seeing these bandits, the leader of the Du family caravan directly arranged for Wen Xia to join

Inside the caravan.

After discovering that these bandits had no intention of giving in, the steward thought for a moment and stood up from the crowd.

"Hello heroes, I am the manager of this caravan, and my surname is Du. I don't know if you have heard of the reputation of our Du family's trading company. We are the Du family's caravan.

It stands to reason that if all the heroes are interested in coming over to meet us today, it can be regarded as the fate of our acquaintance. This means that you think highly of us. The goods we brought here should be used as drinking money for the heroes.

However, our Du Family Trading Company is open to the public after all, and we must be honest no matter what we do. The batch of goods we are shipping now is indeed urgently used by some stores.

If the heroes are given to you today, our Du Family Trading Company will have nothing to sell. This will cause a lot of losses to our Du Family Trading Company.

Therefore, I was wondering if it would be convenient for all of you heroes to send this batch of goods out first to solve the urgent need of our Du family firm.

When I return to the trading house, I will definitely report today's events to our boss. At that time, let the boss prepare generous gifts and visit the heroes' villages to thank you for your generosity today."

What the steward said sounded nice, but the bandits didn't listen to what he said at all.

After the steward finished speaking, the bandit at the front waved impatiently to the bandits behind him.

"Brothers, he is treating us like fools. Who knows if he will come back if he leaves today. Don't think so much, brothers, go ahead and leave all these things. Except for the goods, the man

No one was left alive, all the women were tied up and taken away!"

Upon hearing the words of the leading bandit, the bandits behind him cheered as if they had been given a shot of blood.

"Come on!"

"Brothers, go ahead, there are a lot of good things here! After doing this, we will be rich for several days!"

These bandits were originally in a very high spirits, and the excitement of the people traveling with them quickly infected them.

These bandits rushed directly towards the caravan and soon arrived in front of the caravan.

At this point, the bodyguards on the periphery of the caravan naturally want to ensure the safety of the people in the Du family's caravan as much as possible.

As for the goods in the Du family's caravan, it's already at this time, so it's natural to ensure the safety of people first. You can't give up your life rather than your wealth.

Of course, not everyone thinks so.

Some small caravans who followed the Du family's caravan were frightened when these bandits rushed over.

They took advantage of the bandits to be stopped by the bodyguards and didn't care about the goods in the caravan at all.

After all, these people already have experience in business, and many of them have already sewn valuable things onto their bodies.

Therefore, they ignored the other people in the caravan and took advantage of this opportunity to rush out of the bandits' encirclement.

It seemed that these bandits had done something like this for the first time, and they looked very experienced.

The number of bandits was large. At least in terms of numbers, the number of bandits was almost half that of the bodyguards.

In addition, the weapons in the opponent's hands were not sophisticated. However, the horses they brought over seemed to be very well-raised.

With this advantage, they could almost cut down most of the escorts in the escort agency to the ground.

The merchants who took advantage of the chaos and wanted to escape also let these bandits carry these people back like chickens.

Of course, these people who can be brought back are still relatively few. Most of the people who disappeared near here before are no longer here.

From this we can see how arrogant these bandits are.

They directly threw those who wanted to escape on the ground. At this time, a few people already felt that they had a chance to win and did not participate in the fight between the bandits and the bodyguards.

He glanced at Xing Shang, who was thrown to the ground at this time, and the expression on his face became even more ugly. He couldn't help but stepped forward and kicked him twice.

"You are very powerful! Do I let you go? The battle here is not over yet, and none of you are allowed to move."

"Third brother, beat him up! These people are so cowardly!"

"Still want to run away? Why? Do you look down on us? Where do you want to run? You can run away!"

Hearing what these people said, Wen Xia felt even more worried.

However, at this time, apart from staying at home and trying not to cause trouble to the escorts and caravan members, it seemed that the only thing she could do.

The war situation between the two sides developed very quickly.

Although these bandits have the advantage of having horses as mounts, they are much inferior to the bodyguards in terms of physical fitness and weapons.

However, with only such an advantage, it is already very good.

After the escorts fought with them for a while, their defeat gradually began to show.

But at this time, other people in the Du family caravan directly held some tools in their hands that could not even be regarded as weapons. They rushed towards the caravan that had broken through the first line of defense.

Although their force value is not as good as that of the bodyguards, their numbers are not large.

If they fight one on one, they will definitely not be able to defeat the bandits.

However, there are very many of them.

These servants, while holding the "weapons" in their hands, surrounded the bandits.

If the bandits did not take the initiative to attack them, these servants would not be prepared to do so.

After all, they really have no way to fight the supplier and solve this problem.
