This group of bandits turned out to be hungry people in a village. The elderly were left behind, the children were eaten, and the women were sold for food. Seeing that there was no way to survive, the leading villager became cruel and became a bandit.
Robbed the hungry people of another village.
Once started, such evil things as burning, killing, looting and torture are difficult to stop.
In just a few months, this group of hungry people had become habitual bandits, with a total of more than 300 people. The wealthy businessmen and common people traveling on the official road were extremely unlucky.
Xu Jing's motorcade was so vast and eye-catching that they didn't dare to provoke it at first. However, since they learned that this motorcade had been releasing food, their eyes turned green and they no longer cared about how many guards there were in the motorcade.
In their opinion, all young men from rich families cherish their lives. They would rush in and kill them first, frighten them, then obediently hand over the food, gold and silver, and then all the women.
In the beginning, it went really well,
The guards dispersed in a hurry, with no intention of fighting with them.
Wow! A slash of the knife broke a hole in the carriage compartment, and white grains of rice kept pouring out.
Same thing in the second car.
Going to the back, there are actually gold, silver and jewelry.
"Get rich!" The bandits, who had only gathered for a few months, were dazzled by the rice, grain, gold and silver, and rushed to the carriage. Some were busy stuffing money into their bodies, while others were busy grabbing grain.
Even the "leader" couldn't bear it any longer. He cursed loudly and shouted: "Stop it first. Do you want food and money at the expense of your life? Kill people first..."
An arrow flew from nowhere.
A cloud of blood emerged from the "leader's" throat and he suddenly fell down.
The bandits who were busy robbing things didn't notice that the "leader" was killed by an arrow.
Xu Jing, who was standing on the carriage, fired another arrow with a cold face. After a few hundred steps, another arrow sealed his throat. After firing several arrows, Xu Jing took out his sword from his waist and rushed over on horseback.
.
Xu San and Xu Eleven led their own soldiers to rush forward to kill the bandits. Xu Erwu led a hundred soldiers to guard the carriage.
The sound of swords clashing and bursts of screams could be heard outside the carriage.
Hosta's face turned pale, and Haitang was even more timid. She curled up and hid her head behind Hosta.
Zhao Xiyan was very calm. She even raised the car curtain and looked out for a moment: "Don't be afraid, these bandits are no match for the prince."
Yuhan's voice was trembling: "Miss, after leaving Beihai County these days and seeing the outside world, I know how comfortable my life is."
yes!
Zhao Xiyan sighed softly, lowered the car curtain and waited silently.
Meng Yushi on the other carriage was not so peaceful. Hearing the sound of fighting outside, Meng Yushi also jumped out of the carriage.
Xu Erwu immediately stepped forward to stop him: "Meng Yushi, our prince is leading people to kill the bandits. Meng Yushi just sits here and waits."
It's better not to cause trouble.
Meng Yushi's face sank, and he said with full authority: "Get out of the way! I want to personally supervise the battle!"
Xu Erwu was born with a baby face, and he seemed to be smiling even when he was not smiling. He had a good temper, no matter how angry Meng Yushi was, Xu Erwu would just smile and stop him from moving.
Meng Yushi scolded angrily.
The carriage curtain was raised, and Miss Zhao Liu's gentle voice came: "Has Yushi Meng ever practiced martial arts?"
Meng Yushi could no longer scold him, so he coughed and replied: "I have studied hard since I was a child, reading the Four Books and Five Classics, so I never have time to practice martial arts."
Besides, how can scholars be willing to dance with guns and sticks?
Zhao Xiyan said calmly: "In that case, why doesn't Meng Yushi sit quietly and wait for the prince to kill the bandits? What's the use of rushing over now? Do you expect to tell a group of bandits the way of Confucius and Mencius, so that they will automatically put down their swords and guns and kneel down to beg for mercy?
"
Meng Yushi: "..."
Miss Zhao Liu looked gentle, but when she occasionally showed her strength, it was so sharp that it stabbed her heart and lungs.
Meng Yushi said nothing and turned back to the carriage.
Xu Erwu breathed a sigh of relief and thanked his future mistress.
Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly and lowered the car curtain.
…
This battle ended faster than planned.
These bandits were ordinary villagers a few months ago. They relied on the knives and guns they snatched and pretended to wave them a few times to scare ordinary people, thinking that they were powerful. When they encountered real masters, they were defeated as a matter of course.
Xu Jing chopped down more than a dozen bandits one after another. His body was spattered with blood, and there was a trace of blood on Jun's face. He wanted to pick up the knife and chop again, but saw that the bandits had already thrown away their weapons, and they knelt down tremblingly, crying and begging for mercy.
Xu and the others said few words: "Your Majesty, do you want to kill them all?"
The bandits were so frightened that they kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Xu Jing clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, suppressed the bloodthirsty desire for killing in his heart, and exhaled a breath: "Tie them all up, pack up their bodies, and send them to the government office. I will make another memorial.
To the court."
Xu Sanlue nodded and led his soldiers to clean up the mess. When he encountered a bandit who was seriously injured and wailing, he would give him a knife and let him go to heaven as soon as possible.
The remaining bandits were so frightened that they immediately shut up.
Half an hour later, it was already dark. Xu San led dozens of soldiers and sent several carts of corpses and more than a hundred bandits tied like rice dumplings to the government office.
Xu Jing and his party did not stay where they were, and continued to move forward, only stopping when they reached the post house.
When Yi Cheng saw Xu Jing covered in blood, his legs were shaking and he couldn't stand up straight.
Xu Jing frowned impatiently: "My prince is killing bandits, why are you nervous? Go and prepare hot water."
What should I do if my sister Yue Yaer is frightened by this bloody smell?
Xu Jing washed away the blood with hot water and changed into clean new clothes. Smelling the smell of blood on his body, Xu Jing was a little dissatisfied, so he found floral dew and sprinkled half a bottle on his body.
As soon as you enter the house, a strong aroma wafts over.
Zhao Xiyan couldn't help but rub her nose: "How much toilet water have you spilled? It's too choking."
"Isn't it because the smell of blood will scare you?" Xu Jing came over and sat down: "Is there anything delicious? I've been hungry for a long time!"
With Xu Jing's temper, he even brought his usual bed, and naturally he also brought two cooks. Of these two cooks, one was good at all kinds of dishes, and the other was good at making pasta and pastries.
When they arrived at the post house, the two cooks went to the kitchen and were busy cooking a sumptuous meal for their master.
There were four cold, six hot and ten dishes on the small round table.
Zhao Xiyan took a bowl of dishes for Xu Jing and smiled casually: "I asked someone to send a few dishes to Yushi Meng."
When Xu Jing heard Meng Yushi's name, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "It's just right for him to eat some solid food and drink some cold water. Don't spoil the delicious food."
Zhao Xiyan laughed and slowly picked up a piece of meat.
After filling his stomach, the indescribable anger in Xu Jing's heart calmed down a little.
Zhao Xiyan looked at him quietly and said softly: "Brother Chunsheng, have you been in a bad mood these days?"
