After the fleet left, Wu Shigong explained his worries to Xue Yongli and several security leaders. Everyone discussed it and unanimously decided that it was better to be careful.

So, as soon as they left Jining, they all put on armor in a wild place with few people. Of course, it was not arm armor, but leather armor. This time they went out with only leather armor. Other than that,

In addition, they also loaded their guns and handguns with gunpowder and bullets, and stuffed the muzzles with stoppers. The lances were also carried beside the horses' backs.

After being fully armed, they still put on the coats of merchants and clerks outside. Then they set off back to Qianhusuo.

As a result, the carts were all empty. Therefore, Wu Shigong and his group walked very quickly. At nearly dusk, they entered the grounds of Guide Mansion. However, they did not expect that in front of the road, not only was there no "Henan

There is something strange about the sign "People Welcome You".

About a hundred steps away, a convoy dressed as a caravan blocked the road. A large car in the convoy, probably with a damaged axle and wheels, rolled over on the road, blocking the road tightly.

Seriously. The other people in the convoy seemed to be helping to repair the overturned car.

Seeing this situation, Wu Shigong and others reined in their horses and stopped. Wu Shigong wanted to arrange for two guards to go to the caravan to see the situation. But at this moment, Zhang Biao and Li Sanhe squeezed into Wu Shigong

In front of the horse, he said to Wu Shigong: "Sir, the situation ahead is not right."

"What should I say?" Wu Shigong immediately became vigilant after hearing what Zhang Biao and Li Sanhe said.

"Sir, that caravan has between five and sixty people. If their cart breaks down, they will have the manpower to move the cart to the side of the road and repair it. There is no way they will block the road."

Wu Shigong understood immediately. He and Xue Yongli looked at each other and nodded. Xue Yongli immediately put the whistle hanging around his neck into his mouth and blew it.

Hearing the whistle, the training of the cavalry team some time ago showed results. The guards immediately formed a queue of ten horses according to their own divisions.

But at this time, Wu Shigong's own cart was getting in the way. So, under Xue Yongli's command, they stepped back thirty or forty steps and then arranged their formation.

Xue Yongli asked the other guards to divide into small teams to observe and protect on the left, right and behind. He personally led two teams of guards to protect Wu Shigong and the empty horses carrying silver in the middle circle.

Then Xue Yongli gave the order: "Yongzi, Liuzi, lead your two teams to kill the thieves in front. Remember, don't chase them too far."

After Xue Yong and Xue Qiang responded, they led their two small teams of twenty people and walked towards the caravan. They walked around the cart that Wu Shigong and the others had just abandoned, and all picked up their spears.

, lined up and launched the charge.

Just when Xue Yong and Xue Qiang were charging, there was a sound of gongs on both sides of the road. Following the sound of gongs, nearly two hundred people rushed out of the fields four or fifty steps away from Wu Shigong and the others on both sides of the road, waving weapons.

The monsters screamed and came towards Wu Shigong and the others. Behind Wu Shigong's road, someone blocked Wu Shigong's retreat with a large vehicle.

Wu Shigong cursed in his heart: "Damn it! We were ambushed. Now we have no choice but to fight."

All the guards looked very ugly. However, after all, they had been training for a long time, and they did not mess up their formation at this time. Under the command of Xue Yongli, they all picked up their spears and prepared to fight.

However, the distance between these robbers and Wu Shigong and his companions was too close. If a battle broke out, Wu Shigong and his companions' horses would not be able to run fast enough to unleash the maximum power of their cavalry. And the number of robbers was large.

Therefore, Wu Shigong thought about it in his mind and thought: "It seems that my losses will be considerable this time."

But at this moment, the robbers blocking the road ahead and disguised as a caravan suddenly let out a few screams: "They are all the army! They are the army!"

The screams stunned the robbers on both sides of the road. They all stopped involuntarily and looked at Wu Shigong and the others. When they discovered that Wu Shigong and the others had prepared their cavalry, lined up in formation, and raised their spears, they were about to attack them.

As they rushed over, the robbers let out another strange scream, then dropped their weapons and fled in all directions.

Seeing the robbers fleeing in all directions, the guards became emboldened. They lined up, let go of their horses, and chased after them. It was simply a massacre. They faced the backs of those unarmed people who were running away.

, the guards only need to tap lightly with the tip of their spear, which is a life.

However, the guards did not dare to chase too far after all. The situation here was unfamiliar and it was going to be dark soon. Therefore, under Xue Yongli's command, they chased for a certain distance and killed three or four

Ten people later formed a large circle, surrounding the leader of the robbers and a dozen people around him.

Wu Shigong never expected that this battle would be so easy. The level of tension and excitement was not even as good as the false alarm in the fog when he came to Guide last time.

Wu Shigong didn't know that the army was the natural enemy of the robbers. At this time, it was not the time when the world was in chaos in the last years of Chongzhen. The army was still very intimidating to the robbers, who were mainly civilians.

Therefore, when these robbers discovered that Wu Shigong and the others were the army, they instinctively felt scared. They all thought that Wu Shigong and the others were just bait, and instead they fell into the army's counter-encirclement. Therefore, they did not fight yet.

Then they scattered and fled.

At this time, Xue Yong and Xue Qiang returned to Wu Shigong with their two teams. Just now, when Xue Yong and Xue Qiang were halfway through their charge, the robbers who were disguised as a caravan in front had already escaped.

Everything was gone. The robbers didn't even have time to take off the reins of the horses on their carts and lead them away.

Xue Yong and Xue Qiang did not dare to break up their formation and pursue them around the large vehicle blocking the road, so they returned without killing anyone.

After seeing them come back, Wu Shigong, who was very excited, asked Xue Yong and Xue Qiang to guard the empty horses carrying silver. He took the two teams guarding Wu Shigong and the empty horses and ran towards the encirclement.

The robbers were surrounded and looked at the guards around them in horror. It was estimated that as long as someone gave the order to surrender, these robbers would have already knelt down and begged for mercy.

Seeing Wu Shigong coming, Xue Yongli smiled easily and asked Wu Shigong: "Uncle, how should we deal with these little thieves?"

"What else can be done? Kill them all." Wu Shigong replied lightly.

Wu Shigong had no interest in taking these robbers back to Qianhu, and Wu Shigong did not have so much food to feed them. Besides, these little thieves had to pay a price for scaring their Grandpa Wu.

After hearing Wu Shigong's killing order, the robber leader was very tough. He still held a knife in his hand. The leader, with three or four people around him, raised their knives and shouted as they rushed towards Wu Shigong.

The two teams of guards who were guarding Wu Shigong just now all had firecrackers in their hands. As soon as the robbers appeared, they had already used iron bars to compact the gunpowder and bullets in the barrels of the firecrackers, and used firecrackers to

The matchmaker lit the match and got ready for shooting.

Now when they saw the four or five people rushing towards them, they raised their fire cannons and fired a volley, robbing and beating them all to death.

Seeing this, the other robbers were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy. Wu Shigong ignored them at all. With a wave of his hand, the guards approached the robbers with their horses and wanted to kill them all.

At this time, among the sounds of begging for mercy, a robber shouted loudly: "Grandpas, I know where to hide things!"

"Oh?" Wu Shigong shouted to stop the guards from approaching. He pointed at the robber and said, "You come out first."

The robber quickly crawled forward a few steps. Wu Shigong then ordered: "Kill the rest."

The guards approached again, raised their spears, and stabbed them randomly. After three or two blows, all the robbers, except the one who had just shouted, fell into a pool of blood.

Then, Wu Shigong came to the body of the robber leader who was killed. He saw that the robber leader's turban had been blown away by a fire blunderbuss, revealing his short hair.

Zhang Biao, who was beside Wu Shigong, spat on the ground and said to Wu Shigong: "Bah! He is still a monk."

In the Ming Dynasty, both men and women had long hair, and only monks had short hair. Wu Shigong thought to himself: "What kind of world is this! Even the monks came out to rob. And this road from Jining to Guide would have been replaced by

In modern times, it is not a national highway, but a provincial highway, right? There are more than 200 robbers coming to rob? It seems that the world is going to be in chaos."

While Wu Shigong was lamenting, Xue Yongli and the others had already interrogated the robber and found out where the robbers hid their stolen goods.

So Wu Shigong and his guards returned to the road first. He first turned the cart blocking the road to the side of the road and took the cart and horses of the robbers pretending to be a caravan with them.

Then, Wu Shigong asked the guards to disperse and throw the bodies of the dead robbers onto the empty cart. Moreover, he also picked up more than a hundred weapons scattered on the ground and took them with them.

After all, this road was full of people, and Wu Shigong didn't want any extraneous things to happen when he was taking the robbers' stolen goods. So, he basically cleared the scene.
