Following Panasonic Qingluan around on the mountain road, Yu Qiuping couldn't help but curiously asked: "Master Panasonic, what are we going to do? Are we really going to attack Dazhai?"
"No fight." Panasonic shook his head lightly, "There must be a lot of people left in the village."
"Then what are we going to do?" Asai Kenmasa asked.
"Ambush." Matsushita whispered lightly, "After they go to the crops and find no one, they will definitely feel that they have been tricked. Our non-existent army is besieging his stronghold. After leaving people to defend, he will rush
Rush back," Matsushita Qingluan continued to explain, "but when you get to the stronghold, you will find that nothing happened. At this time, he will definitely feel that he has been tricked, and we are actually not prepared to fight him at all, so we will relax our vigilance."
"I have walked through this mountain and know the way. We will ambush them on the only way up the mountain. When they are tired from running for a long time and relax their vigilance, we can just rush out and capture their leader." Matsushita said lightly.
Luan said calmly.
"So you lit up two piles of smoke and made all the people in their cottage suspicious! You ran around for a long time!" Yu Qiuping is really convinced by this young man now. Originally, I heard him say at noon that the cottage can be destroyed with just a few people.
, I still thought it was unbelievable. But now I am really convinced.
"He underestimates the enemy too much, so he will definitely fall into the trap." Matsushita whispered softly, "It seems that he has been living a life of others fawning over him, so he is arrogant. When he has hundreds of people in his hands
, they will despise the strength of a dozen of us and search in vain for the non-existent army."
"His seemingly stupid mistake was actually doomed a long time ago." Panasonic shook his head lightly, "Let's go, hurry up, we won't have time when they come back."
Before he finished speaking, at the corner of the forest path, he suddenly met a dozen people with their families. The people on both sides were stunned, and the people on the other side were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
"Stop them, don't let them go!" Amano Keitoku, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said sharply. Amano Keitoku and Sanada Masayuki were the first to rush out, and several other people also realized that the people with their families could not run fast, and soon
They were all captured quickly.
"Hero, spare your life! Hero, spare your life! The little people will go back to the village with you right now!" The leader, an uncle, kowtows on the ground as if pounding garlic, "You little people don't dare to run away anymore! Don't dare to run away anymore! It was you just now
Our leader Liu Lang persuaded us to run away and let us go! You don't want to do the villain's business! The villain wouldn't dare to run away if he had a hundred courages!"
"Are you..." Yu Qiuping put the knife back into its scabbard and asked, "People who were robbed by bandits and brought to the mountain?"
A dozen people thought that the people in front of them were the bandits' pursuers, but when they heard the tone, they didn't seem to think so. They nodded and said, "Exactly! We were carried up the mountain a few months ago, and this time we saw that the bandits were all gone.
, Leader Liulang saw how pitiful we were and let us go!"
"Don't worry, we are not bandits." Asai Kenmasa smiled, "We are here to fight bandits. You can go."
"We can't let them go." Amano Jingtoku said sternly, "This mountain is a place for bandits. There is no guarantee that there will be no other strongholds or patrols. If they are caught by bandits, they reveal our whereabouts! We will die without a burial.
It’s over!”
"How could that happen?" Yu Qiuping asked puzzledly, "We are here to fight the bandits. They were caught by the bandits. How could they betray us?"
The people around him nodded quickly and said things like "I won't forget this great kindness."
"Sir, didn't you hear clearly just now?" Amano Keide said sternly, "In order to get away with it, these unscrupulous people betrayed the leader Rokuro who was probably kind enough to let them go without saying a word, hoping that the bandits would vent their anger on them.
That leader let them go." Amano Kyoude frowned and looked at the dozen or so civilians with a knife in his hand. "If they are caught by the bandits, they will definitely reveal our existence and whereabouts. What are we talking about?
Let's kill the guards and let them go to get away with it." Amano Jingde looked at Yu Qiuping, "Isn't it?"
Yu Qiuping swallowed. He had to say that what Amano Keide said made sense. People who live under such extreme fear for a period of time seem to suffer from a mental illness called "Stockholm Syndrome"
, instinctively provide information and help to the perpetrators. If these people are caught by bandits again, they may be sold in the blink of an eye.
"Then tie them all to the path. Just don't let them report the news before we ambush you." Matsushita stared at Amano Keide's dissatisfied eyes casually, and the latter stared at the young man unceremoniously. For a moment
The two were in a stalemate.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a commotion at the foot of the mountain.
"No, they are probably back." Yu Qiuping whispered, "Let's hurry up!" He pointed to Amano Keide, Sanada Masayuki and three Matsushita guards who were just on the side of a path, "You guys
A few of them took them to the corner and tied them up. There is a rope in Kihei's bag! Then gag them!"
"If you still have time later, then take the path up the mountain and look for us next to the pavilion. My guards will lead the way." After Matsushita's instructions, he immediately headed to the ambush site from the mainland with Yu Qiuping and others. Amano Keide and others
The people were so vicious that they suppressed the people and threatened them not to speak.
Yu Qiuping and others, led by Matsushita Qingluan, walked up the mountain quickly along the mountain road. They could already see the bandit's stronghold in the distance. Matsushita Qingluan chose a place with a narrow road and rocks on both sides.
It blocked nearly half of the width of the originally narrow mountain road. Yu Qiuping and others scattered and hid in the dense bushes and woods on both sides.
"The bandit leader is a man who cares about face, and he is careless because he underestimates the enemy," Matsushita analyzed in a low voice. "As long as the situation allows, he will definitely be at the front of the team."
"At that time, when he passes these two piles of rocks, we will rush out and kidnap him." Panasonic pointed lightly at the mountain road, "The people behind him will be blocked behind the rocks, and then we can rely on him to hold everyone hostage.
.”
"That's seconds." Maeda Toshiie couldn't help but exclaimed, "Catch the thief first before catching the king! This kid can do it! He's no worse than my little brother!"
"What? I'm far behind others. This guy is probably even better than Changxing." Yu Qiuping admired.
"Please leave the order of when to start and the command behind to Master Yuqiu." Panasonic looked at Yu Qiuping lightly, "I have never been on the battlefield, and I am not as familiar with battle formations as Master Yuqiu."
"Okay." Yu Qiuping agreed, "Then I'll think of a password."
After some time, the noise on the mountain road got closer and closer. Sanada Masayuki and Matsushita's three men also rushed back from the road.
"Where is Jingde?" Yu Qiuping asked Sanada Masayuki.
"Amano-sama said that he would check the rope and the mouth cloth later." Sanada Masayuki replied with a natural expression.
After a while, the footsteps of the bandits could be heard clearly. The bandits seemed to have reached the place where they met the people just now. Amano Keide also hurried back.
"Thank you." Yu Qiuping said, but his nose seemed to smell a strange smell, but he didn't pay much attention.
Everyone was well ambush, just waiting for Tokuyama Umehide to take the bait.
After a while, a team of nearly two hundred bandits appeared in a mighty manner from the bend of the mountain road not far away. Because the mountain road was not wide, only four or five people could walk side by side, and the team dragged on for nearly a month.
One hundred meters away, I heard Tokuyama Meixiu shouting at the top of her lungs: "Damn! These sons of bitches! How dare you act like a master! Let's see if I catch them and don't kill them every day!"
"Kill them!" "Cut them alive!" "Bring them to drink!" Although the minions shouted excitedly, after running all afternoon, they were so tired that they could hardly lift their legs.
, the queue is getting longer and longer.
"Tomorrow, I'll demolish the store with you!" Umehide Tokuyama didn't notice that he had walked into the ambush circle - of course he would not have thought that those bluffing people would come back again.
He ambushed him in the mountains. He chuckled and walked past two piles of rocks as he said, "Catch that little girl back and have a great time..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a shout from the woods beside him——
"Caesar is here! Do it! Do it!" Yu Qiuping shouted excitedly. He finally completed the role-playing mini-game of assassinating Caesar. When the fourteen people on both sides heard the shout, they drew their swords and jumped out of the bush at the same time. The people who were following him
The five minions were killed off guard. Tokuyama Norihide's nodachi was also knocked away by Asai Kenmasa, and Maeda Toshiie fiercely hit his knee with the back of the sword. Only a crisp loud noise was heard.
, seeing that his knees were useless. Norihide Tokuyama wailed in pain, knelt down on the ground, and was immediately clamped by three knives around his neck, unable to move. The remaining people, led by Honda Nanosuke,
He stood between two piles of rocks and firmly grasped the gap.
This series of changes happened in just a few breaths. Except for the five minions who were hacked to death, the remaining minions all looked at Yu Qiuping and others with expressions of disbelief and no reaction.
.
"Who dares to move!" Yu Qiuping pointed a knife at Norihide Tokuyama, who was kneeling on the ground with a face full of anger and fear, and shouted sternly, "Your leader will be dead!"
Yu Qiuping's loud shout seemed to wake the bandits from their surprise. The bandits who had been motionless just now suddenly became a mess.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"I am Cao." Yu Qiuping said with a wry smile, "Am I so weak in deterrence? It's so disrespectful."
These words caused laughter from several people behind him, and the atmosphere of a life-and-death struggle suddenly became relaxed.
After a moment of confusion, the bandits immediately understood the situation in front of them - the dozen or so people had kidnapped their boss. Several people who tried to rush up to take back the boss had to go up one at a time because of the narrow terrain, and were beaten by three attacks and two attacks.
The move killed him instantly. The people behind him immediately didn't dare to move.
"Throw away all your weapons! Surrender!" Yu Qiuping shouted again, "Throw away all the bamboo spears and knives in your hands!" Yu Qiuping said while pretending to kill Norihide Tokuyama, "Otherwise, I'll give it to your boss.
Collect the corpses! Don’t worry, as long as you surrender, I won’t make things difficult for you!”
"I, Yu Qiuping, do what I say!"
It has to be said that the relationship between these bandits and their boss is quite good. Under the threat of Yu Qiuping and others, they honestly threw their weapons on the ground. According to Yu Qiuping's request, they raised their hands in a surrender gesture, one by one.
After walking through the gap, we returned to the village. Yu Qiuping and others were escorting Norihide Tokuyama, who could not even walk. The latter now honestly repented and begged for mercy. He was completely different from the aggressive bandit in the morning, with a look on his face.
The slanderous villain's face made Yu Qiuping very uncomfortable.
What made Yu Qiuping even more impressed was the resourcefulness of the young man named Matsushita Qingluan - he actually managed to eradicate the mountain bandit who had caused trouble for many years in half a day with the help of more than a dozen people.
Under the coercion of Yu Qiuping and others, these bandits who had no weapons and could not resist had to burn down the village. In front of Yu Qiuping and others, they swore a poisonous oath to the Buddha that they would never be bandits or seek out the Buddha again.
That family's trouble.
Although in the eyes of atheistic modern people like Yu Qiuping, swearing a poisonous oath is nothing at all. But in the extremely superstitious ancient times, gods and Buddhas had a high status in the minds of everyone - even these bandits were afraid of being
Buddha hates it. Therefore, the binding force of this poisonous oath is still good. It is estimated that only new and new humans like Oda Nobunaga will completely disdain gods and Buddhas.
After everything was done and the work was done, Yu Qiuping let all the bandits go. This surprised everyone and the bandits. Yu Qiuping's explanation was that he always did what he said - which of course got the approval of Kenmasa Asai and
Great support from Panasonic.
After that, they collected the weapons thrown away by the bandits. They cut off the tips of bamboo spears and other items and confiscated them. Of course, they took away the knives. This completely eliminated the opportunity for these bandits to do evil again. As for how to deal with them
Tokuyama Norihide, the lord, explained the matter about his nephew, and Matsushita Qingran said that he would let the clan members handle it, and would also pick up the family by the way.
When they were ready to leave, Sena Shitoshi, who came after hearing the news, had already rushed to the mountain with more than 20 people from the caravan, and happened to meet Yu Qiupei and others who were packing their weapons.
