Chapter 3?? The bandits are coming
The mist in the sky gradually dissipated, and sparse stars could still be seen in the sky.
The rustling footsteps made Pei Changhao, who had not been sleeping thoroughly, suddenly open his eyes.
"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, there is, there is the sound of horse hooves, about ten horses..."
Looking at the black egg with red face running, Pei Changhao was a little confused for a moment, is the bandit really coming?
"Heidan, why do you hear the sound of horse hooves? How do you know it is ten horses? Don't lie about military information."
Heidan's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Brother Hao, I listened close to the ground. I absolutely can't be wrong. The bandits have arrived..."
Before the black egg could finish speaking, Su Chunhua, who was not far away, also ran over.
Sun Chunhua's face turned pale and his body trembled.
"Hei, Heidan, what did you say, bandits, are the bandits really coming? How many of them are? It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, I, I'm going to go to the village immediately, tell the elders, tell the uncle, tell the people in the village..."
Pei Changhao looked at Su Chunhua coldly. In fact, at this time, his thoughts were also very confused. It was a blessing, not a disaster, but a disaster, but a disaster. Last night, Pei Changhao was still thinking about how to win over more villagers if the bandits did not come, how to win over the elders and Li Zheng, greatly improve his status in the village, and make his life easier in the future. Now, all this has disappeared, and what he thought about in his mind was how to wipe out these bandits and how to survive.
"Su Chunhua, why are you panic? You are not allowed to go back to the village. We need to calm down at this time..."
Before Pei Changhao could finish his words, more than 30 villagers surrounded him.
Everyone's faces were full of panic and at a loss. Although they dug up the trap and made all preparations, they had never killed anyone or even fought.
"It's amazing, the bandits are really here..."
"The bandits are so fierce and have no human nature. I heard that they still eat human flesh..."
"We can't beat the bandits, so we'd better go back to the village and ask the elders and Li Zheng to invite the official army..."
Pei Changhao's emotions quickly became calm. At this time, he was the backbone of the big guy and could never panic. If he showed fear or was at a loss, others would completely collapse.
It was too late to escape. As for asking the government army to wipe out the bandits, it was a big joke. The government army would not care about these things. If the government army really came to the market town and village, it would be even more terrifying than the bandits.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, we are ready, even if the bandits come..."
Pei Changhao spoke, and everyone quickly calmed down and looked at him.
After breathing a long breath, Pei Changhao spoke calmly.
"There is nothing scary about bandits. They are also one head, two hands and two legs, not much different from us. We have made all the preparations and will definitely defeat them. Heidan just discovered that there are only about ten bandits. We have thirty-eight people, are they afraid of them?"
Pei Changhao's calm words and calm emotions stabilized everyone.
The white-bearded old man who was the first to calm down his emotions looked at Pei Changhao, raised his arms and spoke.
"Don't panic, everyone, listen to Brother Chang Hao. If the bandits really come, we can't escape, and the market town and village will be finished..."
Pei Changhao looked at the white-bearded old man and looked over with gratitude.
The critical moment has arrived, and at this time, there is no need to hesitate at all.
"Don't panic, everyone arranged everything last night. We quickly ambushed according to the deployment last night. The mounds on both sides of the road were a little high, and they were ambushed under the mounds and covered with dead grass and leaves. It was impossible for bandits to discover..."
"Everyone remembers that you must obey my orders before you can launch an attack..."
"Okay, there's not much time left, everyone is going to ambush..."
...
Everyone dispersed, and at this time they were still a little quick. They lay on both sides of the road as they had previously deployed.
Pei Changhao walked quickly along both sides of the road, reminding some villagers to lower their heads and cover more dead grass and leaves, and not to look out or expose them. When he came to the ambush place of the white-bearded old man, Pei Changhao took a special look.
Su Chunhua and Heidan have different responsibilities from the other two teenagers. They are mainly responsible for pulling up ropes and tripping the horse's legs.
Heidan and the other two boys walked towards the ambush place, but Su Chunhua did not go there immediately.
Su Chunhua's face had long disappeared. He looked at Pei Changhao and stammered.
"Chang, brother Chang Hao, I, I must go back to the village. The bandits came to the village. For such a big thing, I must tell the elders and uncles..."
Pei Changhao smiled coldly and looked at Su Chunhua and spoke.
"Su Chunhua, are you scared? What we said yesterday? Have you forgotten? If someone is afraid and escapes in the battle, he will get nothing and will not be able to raise his head in the market town and village in the future..."
Su Chunhua's face turned red in an instant.
"Brother Chang Hao, what am I afraid of? I am trying to remind the people in the village and ask everyone to withdraw..."
Pei Changhao smiled slightly and looked at Su Chunhua and spoke.
"Su Chunhua, I asked Heidan to go to the village specifically to see the situation at the family of the elders and Li Zhengda."
Su Fugui's face turned pale, his body shook slightly, and he looked at Pei Changhao without saying a word.
"I think you should understand what Heidan saw. There was no one in the family and Li Zhengda's house, and the door was locked. Li Zhengda is your real uncle. I didn't want to tell you about this, but you just wanted to go back to the village to report the news."
Pei Changhao's tone was a little cold, which made cold sweat appear on Su Chunhua's forehead.
"Brother Chang Hao, don't lie to me. My uncle has always been very nice to me and will not ignore me..."
Pei Changhao laughed, and Su Chunhua still inadvertently revealed that he was afraid, but this was normal.
Staring at Su Chunhua's eyes, Pei Changhao spoke word by word.
"Su Chunhua, Black Egg is here. Besides, at such a critical moment, I don't need to lie. If you really want to know the reason, I will tell you. Can you accept it?"
Su Chunhua's face turned red, and she gritted her teeth and nodded desperately.
Pei Changhao coughed lightly and spoke expressionlessly.
"Mr. Li Zheng takes care of you on weekdays because of family affection. After all, you are his nephew, but there are limits to doing anything. You are just Mr. Li Zheng's nephew, not his son. The parents' efforts to their children are selfless and unrequited. You must understand this."
"For the past few years, you have been taken care of by Li Zheng. Have you ever thought about doing something for Li Zheng, and it makes him happy. His efforts always need to be rewarded. Unfortunately, you are idle and idle. Apart from just a fool, you can't do anything well. After a long time, will Li Zheng not be disappointed?"
"Don't say that Master Li Zheng, even your parents are disappointed."
"Mr. Li Zheng takes care of you from the perspective of family affection. He doesn't owe you anything. You didn't alert you and think that all this is natural."
"I forgot to tell you something. Heidan went to the village and went to your house to check it out. Your door was locked. There was no one at home. Everyone in the family should have been transferred, so you can rest assured..."
Su Chunhua's face gradually turned blue and his eyes were not very good.
Pei Changhao sighed slightly. He knew that although Su Chunhua was twenty years old, he didn't read much and had never really seen any world. His mind was not very mature. He suddenly encountered big things and was likely to go to extremes.
At critical moments, internal stability is the most important thing, and Su Chunhua cannot be mentally disturbed.
"Su Chunhua, don't think too much. Master Li Zheng asked you to be responsible for guarding the market towns and villages, which is also a chance for you. If you can defeat the bandits and protect the market towns and villages, Master Li Zheng will definitely look at you differently..."
Su Chunhua heard these words, and he looked at Pei Changhao, his face slightly better.
Seeing that Su Chunhua's mood improved, Wu Changhao spoke again.
"Su Chunhua, we have made all the preparations and we will definitely succeed when we fight the bandits. At that time, Lord Li Zheng will definitely look at you with admiration. If you have made such a great contribution, are you still worried about the future?"
Su Fugui nodded in a wooden manner, then shook his head again.
"Brother Chang Hao, you can't say that. It's not my credit to defeat the bandits, it's all your credit..."
Pei Changhao's heart was touched. He could not have thought that Su Chunhua would say such words. Logically speaking, the elders and Li asked Su Chunhua to command everyone to resist the bandits. If the bandits were defeated, Su Chunhua would enjoy the victory openly and everyone would have nothing to say.
"Su Chunhua, it is our credit for being able to defeat the bandits. Okay, let's not say much, you and Heidan will also go to ambush. Remember, you must obey my orders. Only after I give the order can you pull up the rope..."
...
When the mist completely dissipated, the sound of horse hooves had become clear, and Pei Changhao, who was standing at the entrance of the village, could hear it.
Everyone is ready, and a battle with huge gaps in strength will be rolled out.
There are too many unknowns. The honest villagers have never killed anyone. When they meet bandits riding tall horses, fierce and vicious, can they raise their slingshots and hoes in their hands, can they pull up ropes buried under the dust, can they wait until the two rows are trapped and all take effect before they can go out? No one knows that if the villagers are frightened and run back, everyone will be finished.
Pei Changhao clenched his fists and his body trembled slightly. He never expected that he had only four days of traveling through time and had not had time to fully familiarize himself with the world, and he would face a life-and-death battle.
