Chapter 12 Battle of the Officials and the People II
Niu Sanyan led Ye Zheng and the others, taking shortcuts through the mountains and forests. After chasing for an hour, they finally saw traces of the officers and soldiers under a hillside.
Seeing the team of officers and soldiers of Qingshan Town Guard Station on the mountain road less than a hundred meters away, Niu Sanyan immediately gestured behind him, indicating that everyone should slow down their movements, and then while breathing, he carefully walked on the mountain
Sneaking closer in the dense forest.
As Ye Zheng and the others approached, the distance between the two parties was less than fifty meters away. At this time, Ye Zheng and the others could clearly see that there were a group of guards in blue uniforms on both sides of the mountain road, holding weapons in their hands.
Equipped with swords, bows and arrows and other weapons, they were escorting sixty or seventy people from Niujia Village up and down the village, walking slowly in the middle of the road. Walking in front of the team was a big yellow horse, and sitting on it was a man wearing black leather armor and carrying a hand-held bag.
A big man with an iron rod. The big man was about forty years old. His face was full of flesh and blood, and there was a hint of sinister look in his eyes. He saw many people behind him looking at him with fear in their eyes. At this time, Ye Zheng passed by
Niu Sanyan learned that the big man on horseback was the leader of these officers and soldiers. He was the captain of the guard of Qingshan Town and the brother-in-law of Sun Chang, the lord of Qingshan Town.
Snapped!
"Damn it, I'm an old man, please go faster, I'm going to want to die!"
"You damn old woman, I'll beat you to death..."
"I told you not to walk fast! I told you not to walk fast! I can't beat you to death..."
The sun was scorching in the sky and it was extremely hot. If some of the escorted villagers walked a little slower, the guards immediately pulled out their whips and whipped them hard. Suddenly, all the villagers who were beaten screamed and cried.
They couldn't help but look at Ye Zheng, Niu Sanyan and others who were hiding in the forest with their eyes spitting fire. Their hearts were filled with rage. They wished they could rush over on the spot and kill the guards who were no better than beasts.
But Ye Zheng knew that it was not the time yet. At least those officers and soldiers were not within the range of his pistol. If he wanted them to enter his effective range, he would have to approach them twenty or thirty meters away. Only
Only within thirty meters can Ye Zheng be sure to shoot those officers and soldiers. Otherwise, if it were farther away, depending on his shooting level, many bullets would probably be missed and wasted. Missing and wasting is not a big deal. What is most scary is
It was the villagers who accidentally injured Niujia Village.
Besides, Ye Zheng didn't want to waste a bullet now, because after so many days of hunting, he only had less than 120 rounds left in the pistol and bullets in his hand, facing more than 50 officers and soldiers.
, this mere 120 rounds of bullets may not be enough, so you must use them sparingly and make sure that most of the bullets can cause damage to the enemy.
Ye Zheng was calculating the distance while approaching the officers and soldiers cautiously. Suddenly, a familiar and soft scream came over. He looked up and saw an officer at the back of the team in front of him, whipping him crazily with a whip.
He was looking at a middle-aged and thin village woman. The village woman fell to the ground and was whipped and screamed. After a closer look, he found that the village woman was actually Aunt Chen. Seeing this scene, Ye Zheng became furious and immediately took out his pistol and prepared to rush over.
"Mother! Mother...you beasts, beat my mother, I will fight with you..."
At this time, Big Tiger and Little Tiger also discovered that their mother was being whipped by the officers and soldiers. At that moment, their eyes were completely red, they raised their spears in anger, roared like two wild beasts and rushed over. Ye Zheng and Niu Sanyan
At that time, I felt something was wrong. I wanted to stop him but it was already too late. The two brothers, Big Tiger and Little Tiger, had already rushed ten meters in front of him.
At this time, Dahu and Xiaohu roared and attracted the attention of the officers and soldiers. At this time, Jiang Tiegang, who was walking at the front, had already received a report from his subordinates. At that moment, his face darkened and he said coldly: "Unexpectedly
There are still fish that have slipped through the net in Niujia Village. Come to me and capture the two bandits who have slipped through the net! If there is resistance, they will be killed without mercy!"
"As you command, my lord!"
Two officers and soldiers came out in response, holding steel knives and rushing towards the big tiger and the little tiger.
At this time, Chen Gu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly heard her two sons rushing out. She turned pale with fright and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Big tiger, little tiger, run away! What are you doing here? Run away."
Here!”
Seeing the two officers and soldiers rushing towards her son with murderous intent, seemingly not planning to survive, she couldn't help but be shocked. At that moment, she didn't know where she got the strength to push down the officer and soldier who was whipping her, and dragged the whole child with her.
With his body covered in scars, he staggered up and rushed towards the two officers and soldiers who were killing his son, trying to grab their clothes.
However, before she could get up and run a few steps, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out and nailed Gu Chen's shoulder. Gu Chen was staggered by the sharp arrow. At that moment, she endured the heartbreaking pain.
Painful, he got up again and rushed forward.
Jiang Tiegang looked coldly at Gu Chen, who was swaying. He drew the bow and arrow in his hand again and shot out. With a "shoo" sound, the arrow flew away and hit her hard in the back of the heart. Suddenly, Gu Chen let out a cry.
He screamed horribly, with a trace of blood flowing from his mouth, and slowly fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, the entire Niujia Village villagers angrily cursed and clashed with the officers and soldiers. However, how could a group of unarmed villagers be a match for them?
The officers and soldiers holding weapons gradually became quiet again under the ruthless suppression.
Looking at the villagers who dared to be angry but dared not speak, Jiang Tiegang smiled coldly, pointed at Aunt Chen on the ground in public and shouted: "All the criminals in Niujia Village have heard this clearly. If anyone else dares to resist and escape, she will suffer the end!
"
"Mother! Mother!..." When Big Tiger and Little Tiger saw Aunt Chen being shot to the ground, the two brothers were immediately grief-stricken, as if they had lost their minds in mad rage. They both rushed towards Aunt Chen who fell to the ground, desperate for their lives.
At this time, the two officers and soldiers who came to kill were already less than five meters away from the two brothers. At this time, the two brothers, Big Tiger and Little Tiger, threw the spears in their hands at the two officers and soldiers, hoping to kill them.
They stabbed him through, but before the two soldiers could even reach a distance of three feet in front of the officers and soldiers, they were lifted to the ground by two officers and soldiers with their swords.
At this time, the two officers and soldiers looked at the two brothers who were rushing over. Seeing that they were both desperate, they couldn't help laughing and said: "You two boys are just looking for death!" After saying that, the two officers and soldiers were almost in a hurry.
At the same time, he took a few steps forward, intending to kill the two brothers, Big Tiger and Little Tiger, with his sword.
It was too late to tell, but it was so fast. Everything that happened just now was just a few breaths away. At that time, Ye Zheng had just chased the big and small tiger brothers and rushed down the mountain, and saw with his own eyes that Chen Gu was shot down by the iron rod.
On the ground, his eyes were split open on the spot, and he was furious. If it weren't for the fact that Jiang's iron rod was too far away from him and was not within his effective range, otherwise, he would have shot to stop it. At this time, he happened to see
When two officers and soldiers slashed at the big tiger and the small tiger with their swords, he was only a dozen meters away from them. At this critical moment, Ye Zheng raised his hand and fired two shots.
"Bang! Bang!"
After the two gunshots, the two officers and soldiers who were attacking Big and Little Tigers fell to the ground. A blood hole the size of a copper coin appeared on their chests. At the same time, Jiang Tiegang and his officers and soldiers not far away also
They were startled by the sound of gunshots. They all looked towards this side with bewildered faces. They found that the two companions who had just rushed over had fallen to the ground at some point. They saw them screaming in pain on the ground.
It seemed as if he had suffered great harm.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the guard station and the villagers of Niujia Village took a closer look and found that there were two more people on the road behind them, and one of them, a young man in a white robe, was holding a strange black iron lump in his hand, and his face was quite pale and nervous.
.But Big Tiger and Little Tiger, who were still frantic just now, each picked up the spears on the ground and stabbed the officers and soldiers who had been shot and fell to the ground. After several screams, the two officers and soldiers died of anger.
When the villagers of Niujia Village saw Ye Zheng's appearance, they immediately let out a burst of strong cheers, because as long as he appeared, the entire Niujia Village would be saved. Now only he has the ability to save the entire Niujia Village.
, the concealed weapon pistol in his hand can even kill wild boars and black bears, so what are the officers and soldiers of a few guard stations? Thinking of this, the villagers of Niujia Village began to think about how to find opportunities to cooperate with Ye Zheng's rescue.
good.
At this time, Jiang Tiegang was furious when he saw that Ye Zheng and others actually killed his guards in public, and shouted angrily: "Humph, I didn't expect that there are so many remnants in Niujia Village. Shoot those arrows for me."
I shot all the rebellious thieves!"
When Jiang Tiegang gave the command, more than a dozen bows and bows sounded at the same time, and more than a dozen arrows shot towards Ye Zheng and the four of them like meteors.
When Ye Zheng and others saw it, they were horrified and hurriedly hid in the woods on both sides of the mountain road to find shelter. At the same time, they were also secretly looking for a suitable opportunity and prepared to shoot back. As the officers and soldiers were mixed with the villagers of Niujia Village in the middle of the road ahead,
If you shoot easily, you may accidentally injure people in Niujia Village.
At this time, Jiang Tiegang saw Ye Zheng and others hiding in the woods to avoid the rain of arrows. He immediately ordered the guards around him: "You are here to take good care of these traitors in Niujia Village. I will go there in person and kill those few."
A fish that slipped through the net was caught.”
After saying that, I saw him snorting coldly, putting down his bow and arrow, holding the iron rod upside down with one hand, and spurred his horse back to pursue him. The horse's hooves were raised fiercely, and it rushed through the middle of the mountain road like thunder. Suddenly, some people had no time to dodge.
The Niu family villagers who drove away were knocked over by the running horses, their bones and flesh were broken, and their screams could not be heard.
Ye Zheng and others who were hiding not far away saw that Jiang Tiegang was so cold and arrogant, treating human life as nothing, and the anger in his heart was simply indescribable. At that moment, he clenched his pistol and secretly said: "Jiang Tiegang, you
This beast first killed Aunt Chen with an arrow, and now he hurts innocent villagers. If I, Ye Zheng, don’t take your life, I will be ashamed of Aunt Chen!”
