Chapter Thirty-Nine The Crowd
"call out……"
After hearing the news from the waiter, everyone took a deep breath.
Warriors strengthen their bodies, lick blood with their swords, earn a career and support their families by relying on their crafts. In fact, they are not too afraid of facing swords and guns. It all depends on who has higher kung fu and deeper skills.
However, hard crossbows and foreign guns are a bit cheating, and they are completely sharp weapons in the military. Once someone takes aim, it is difficult to escape.
Hard crossbows appear in small numbers, so it's not surprising... The armed guards are terrible. They eat soldiers' pay, drink their blood, and buy and sell arms. It's commonplace.
Some of the hard crossbows were sold to earn money. The noble military generals of Xi people must be able to do this.
But what about foreign guns?
"Are you sure it's a foreign gun? Is it igniting or not? How powerful is the iron?"
Wu Zhongda looked heavy, hoping to get a less bad answer.
"It's a real foreign gun, it shoots very fast, it doesn't need to be ignited, and there is no smoke."
If the rate of fire is extremely fast, it will be difficult to dodge; without smoke, it will be impossible to find an ambush point.
The hand wiped the sweat and blood on his face and said painfully: "I was exploring the road ahead. When I saw something was wrong, the brothers around me fell down in pieces, so I jumped into the grass and pretended to be dead. I could clearly see at that time that the foreign gun
It can fire seven or eight iron pellets in a row, hitting it very far. It can attack from the top of a mountain more than a hundred feet, and it is frighteningly accurate."
"Liu Biaoshi was caught off guard, and before he could fight out, he was hit by several iron stones and died on the spot... Yuan Biaotou killed several bandits, but was stopped by Zhao She, and was attacked by a foreign spear and a hard crossbow.
He was beaten several times, captured alive, and tied to a stake to demonstrate..."
"I heard that Zhao She shouted that it was to avenge his brother. If the murderer of Zhao Bao was not handed over, Yuanshun would be blocked from leaving the capital escort route, and they would be robbed again and again."
Everyone looked at Zhang Kun in unison.
Just ask, why did Jigongshan Wohuzhai go crazy and attack Yuanshun escort silver, and was so bold that he dared to rob Shangjing Caoyin? It turned out that in the process of seeking revenge, he robbed the silver by mistake.
Qi Fulin said in a deep voice: "These batches of Cao Yin are coming to Beijing one after another. I heard that they are trying to make up for the wages owed by the Wu Wei Army and have robbed their things. Crouching Tiger Village is not in good shape either. It is better to go to the Wu Wei Right Army for a walk."
Go, borrow troops to suppress the thieves..."
Hong Huatong shook his head: "The troops in the capital can't move lightly, and they won't care about the life and death of our escort agency... In fact, some people are eager to see the Yuanshun Escort Agency's jokes and leak information from it. Even if they spend a lot of money to convince the Wuwei Army,
Even if the patrol camp leaves the city, it will be difficult to catch them."
He sighed and said: "Since ancient times, you can only commit a thief for a thousand days, and there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days. Once the bandit sees the government sending troops, he will leave immediately. When the wind subsides, he will attack and harass my Yuanshun escort team again. What should he do?
good?"
Wu Zhongda's eyes widened, he drew the knife in his hand, and said coldly: "Is it possible that we can only let them bully us to death? The chief escort is out now, but we are not pigs and sheep to be slaughtered by others. Why not gather our brothers together?
The killer will go out..."
"Confused!"
Hong Huatong scolded: "Since Crouching Tiger Village has foreign guns in hand, if I guess correctly, it must be related to the churches of the Church of Light in villages and towns all over the country. We must be careful about this. Zhao Ying, the leader of Dazhai, had earlier
Already developed dark strength in the years
, with an eagle-shaped fist that is extremely strong but soft, very difficult to deal with, and the leader of the second village's snake-shaped spear is also mysterious and fierce, and is definitely not a weakling... How can they fight with so many subordinates? Even if they win, Yuanshun Escort Agency,
How many people can survive?"
Hearing this, Wang Jingya became a little impatient, "This won't work, that won't work either. Could it be that we can only let them attack the escort agency and hurt people and kill people? Or do you want to settle the matter and hand over your brothers?
Seek the magnanimity of Crouching Tiger Village?"
As soon as these words came out.
Most of the dozens of escorts and escorts in the field lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Wang Jingya.
There is a rush to do the business of making money, but no one is doing the business of beheading.
Hearing that the other party has foreign guns, strong hands, and many subordinates, it would be a lie to say that he is not guilty.
Moreover, Mr. Wang's head escort was not at home, and Qi Fulin, who was in charge, was gentle-tempered and had many concerns. Hong Huatong had been in charge of his father's Wuyi studies for a long time, and he was like a teacher more than a man fighting in the world, and stability was the priority.
As for Luo Wei, he was busy waiting for medical treatment to treat his son, and had no time to pay attention to the affairs of the escort agency.
Even if that person knew about it, he probably would have suggested handing Zhang Kun over to appease the anger of Crouching Tiger Village.
To put it bluntly, these people are not very reliable.
What if Zhang Kun is handed over to take the blame?
There is something to be said for this method, which is cost-effective, simple and comfortable.
Without having to fight desperately, you can save people and get money back, and you can also build a good relationship with Crouching Tiger Village again.
It's just a matter of handing over a new escort to the escort agency.
Moreover, he caused the matter himself...
As for whether the other party is willing.
Of course, you don’t need to be too embarrassed if it’s not your turn.
"Don't mention this matter. In our Yuanshun Escort Agency, the chief escort has gained a great reputation with his swordsmanship. Who wouldn't respect Qifeng, a green forest hero or a strong bandit? It's about loyalty and relying on martial arts. If he were here,
He must have just picked up the knife. Now that we have been frightened out of our courage by a mere bandit, the general has been sent out, and the reputation of the chief escort will be lost. The other seven escort agencies will be laughing their heads off..."
Wu Zhongda's face was as red as blood and his eyes were sharp.
Anyone who dares to make this suggestion again must ask whether the edge of the knife in his hand is good or bad.
Qi Fulin quickly smoothed things over: "Don't mention this matter, let's discuss it in the long run. The top priority is how to rescue brother Yuan... As for Caoyin, Caoyin, alas..."
His prestige is not enough, even if Hong Huatong and Luo Wei are added together, it is not enough to convince the public.
Under normal circumstances, when it comes to the interests of everyone, all the escorts in the escort agency are naturally united. However, when encountering difficulties, some coordination fails.
Next, everyone was talking and thinking about many plans.
The findings are not perfect and are very dangerous.
In particular, the traitor from Crouching Tiger Village does not only stay in one place.
If you dare to attack the southern escort route Caoyin escort today, then tomorrow you may target the northern escort route, or even the eastern escort route.
If we don't solve this problem, the bandits will target our own escort agency like a mad dog, and we will not be able to do business anymore.
After all, the escorts are not an army or a sect. After all, they are just businessmen who gather together because of life.
If you can make money by being harmonious, you don't want to lick blood and fight for your life.
All this time, these people have been protected by the name of the chief escort, Da Dao Wang Wu. For a long time, they have not experienced a desperate fight, and they have long lost their blood.
"Hey... where is Master Zhang?"
Suddenly, they were scattered into a mess, each standing, either bowing his head, or glaring angrily, and one of the bodyguards spoke.
Everyone looked back and saw that Zhang Kun was no longer in the martial arts field.
Even the little girl who had been following him disappeared.
"Could it be that you saw something was wrong and ran away?" Someone suddenly realized.
"Fart! If you run away, he won't run away?" Wang Jingya opened her mouth and spat, with a delicate little face showing a hint of ferocity.
