"Opium!" Ding Qingyao was surprised and said angrily: "How can you use opium!"
"What's wrong with opium? Anything that can pull out pus is a good ointment." Hou Zhao glanced at her, hurriedly dropped a sentence, ducked out from behind the big tree, rolled on the spot, dodged the bullets, and raised his hands.
He opened his box cannon to the left and right, knocking down several Red Spear Association assassins who rushed over with swords. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brothers, our reinforcements will be here soon, hit me hard!"
He said this deliberately to scare people. Most people would feel guilty after hearing this, and the sensible ones would withdraw. However, he forgot that the people in the Red Spear Club were all madmen brainwashed by religion. Instead, he beat them even crazier, making him complain.
Not enough.
"Master Marquis, withdraw, if the fight continues, all the brothers will have to stay here!" A man with a yellow face ran over and said urgently to Hou Zhao.
Hou Zhao gritted his teeth, pointed at the big tree where Ding Qingyao was hiding, and said: "You take the people away first, I will take the rear!" The box in his hand rang out like a cannon, and several red spears who rushed to the front met.
The killer fell down at the sound.
"Master Marquis, take care!" The yellow-faced man turned around and ran to the tree, lifted Han Baihang on his shoulders, and said to Ding Qingyao: "Follow me closely."
The others withdrew, and Zhao could only suppress the Red Lance killer for a while. Soon, the hail of bullets from the opposite side overwhelmed him and he couldn't lift his head. He plunged into the grass, fighting and retreating.
At this time, intensive gunfire suddenly rang out from behind the Red Spear Killer, and someone shouted: "Don't let these people run away, beat me hard!"
The assassins of the Red Spear Club were immediately thrown into chaos. Taking advantage of the chaos, Hou Zhao ran away without a trace.
…
Yong'an Town official and military garrison.
"Drive, drive!"
A cavalryman came on horseback. The sentry in front of the camp recognized him as the company commander's personal guard and quickly pulled away his horse to let the man in. The cavalryman entered the barracks, jumped off his horse, and ran to the company headquarters to find Zhou.
Qing, sweating profusely: "Platoon Commander Zhou, something happened to the company commander!"
Zhou Qing was so surprised that he asked anxiously: "What happened?"
When the guard told him the whole story, Zhou Qing suddenly changed his color. He whipped the guard twice with his horsewhip. He gritted his teeth and said, "What a good thing you did. If the company commander makes any mistakes, I won't be able to spare you two!"
After saying that, Zhou Qing ran out in a hurry and yelled: "Corpser, blow the assembly horn!"
The military camp suddenly became chaotic.
…
Xu Wangtang was hugging his grandson under the grape trellis at home. The two-year-old grandson was twisting and turning on him, pulling his beard from time to time and talking, which made him very happy. But this family happiness was soon broken.
, the housekeeper trotted over in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Master, something happened to the eldest mistress at Hongfa Temple."
Xu Wangtang was suddenly startled, and the kind smile on his face suddenly disappeared. He asked the maid to take his grandson away, and said gloomily: "What happened?"
The housekeeper whispered: "A group of gangsters wanted to kidnap the eldest mistress while she was offering incense and worshiping Buddha. The garrison company commander Han was also present at the time and rescued the eldest mistress. Now the whereabouts of the two of them are unknown!"
Xu Wangtang's face was blue, and Lei Lei said angrily: "Who dares to disturb Tai Sui's head!"
The housekeeper shook his head and said: "The origins of this group of gangsters are very mysterious and have not been found out yet."
Xu Wangtang suddenly asked again: "Why is Han Baihang also in Hongfa Temple?"
The butler understood what he meant and said, "We just happened to meet him."
Xu Wangtang nodded and said solemnly: "Gather the troops and follow me to Sanhe Town!"
The housekeeper said anxiously: "Master, Sanhe Town is currently in a state of war and chaos. You must not take risks. Just let others go."
Xu Wangtang sneered and said: "This matter is obviously premeditated to come against me. It seems that some people have forgotten what I used to do. Besides, Qingyao is my wife of the Xu family, I can't ignore it."
After hearing this, the housekeeper stopped trying to persuade him and hurriedly went to summon the strong men of the Xu family to guard the hospital. Xu Wangtang returned home and put on his fancy clothes. He picked up two box cannons from under the pillow and stuck them in his waist.
He quickly climbed onto the fat and strong yellow gelding, and with the majesty of the past patrol camp and management belt, he waved his arm and said: "Let's go!"
…
Ding Zuopeng learned late that his daughter was in danger at Hongfa Temple, and hurriedly asked Xue Lin to lead troops to rescue him. However, he had no intention of leaving the city because he knew that he had many enemies. Today's daughter was in danger, and he might not have come to Xu Wangtang.
Yes, it was for him. However, he soon learned that Xu Wangtang had left the city in person, and he felt mixed emotions in his heart. He sighed and said: "Old Xu still has the responsibility of a father-in-law, but I, as a biological father, am not as good as others.
” There was unspeakable self-mockery in his words.
Xue Lin did not dare to neglect after receiving Ding Zuopeng's order, and hurriedly ordered three squadrons of militiamen to rush to Sanhe Town to kill them. When they arrived at Shanhe Town, the gangsters had long disappeared, leaving only a messy battlefield and corpses. He saw Xu Wangtang standing in front of him.
He led a group of nurses to inspect the corpses on the ground, followed by the mayor of Sanhe Town, who hurriedly jumped off his horse and ran over, respectfully calling Mr. Xu, but Xu Wangtang ignored him at all, which made him a little embarrassed.
"hehe!"
Xue Lin laughed twice to cover up his embarrassment. He turned his attention to the mayor of Sanhe Town, his face suddenly darkened, and he asked rudely: "Mayor Xu, where did the gangster go!"
Mayor Xu smiled bitterly and said: "He ran to the southwest. I have sent people to chase him."
Xue Lin snorted coldly, got on his horse, and was about to lead his troops to pursue him.
"No need to chase, I already know the identities of these people!" Xu Wangtang suddenly said, everyone looked at him hurriedly, Xue Lin asked anxiously: "Mr. Xu, who are they?"
Xu Wangtang uttered three words heavily: "Red Spear Club!"
Mayor Xu took a breath of air: "Why did the Red Spear Club come to Yongcheng?"
Xue Lin was confused. He had also heard of the name of the Red Spear Club, but in his impression, the Red Spear Club was just a group of arrogant bastards who lied about being "invulnerable" to magic. In western Henan,
It is very popular in central Henan, but almost disappeared in eastern Henan. He couldn't help but ask: "Why did the Red Spear Association kidnap the eldest lady?"
Xu Wangtang said with a solemn expression: "You're here for me."
Xue Lin was stunned and heard Xu Wangtang sigh: "During the Xinhai period, the Red Spear Club in Yongcheng was very powerful. The total number of members in the county was tens of thousands. It took me three years to bring down the Red Spear Club.
Uproot them, they are coming back!"
Xue Lin heard Xu Wangtang's fear of the Red Spear Society, and he eagerly said: "Mr. Xu, the Red Spear Society is no big deal. I will order the local militia groups to strictly guard against it and nip this little sign of the Red Spear Society in the bud!
