Chapter 32 Bandits Entering the Village
Dust is flying, and the wind is running at lightning.
More than 200 cavalry bandits surrounded Dongpan Township and all of them were driven to the big square in front of Song Tianming's gate.
Suddenly, the village was in chaos and cried and shouted.
Almost all the remaining people in Dongpan Township are the elderly, weak, women and children. When they see the fierce bandits, they can only let them go.
The old clan and several villagers tried to resist, but were beaten up and lay on the ground without knowing their lives.
Zhang Fei rode a tall horse and said to the villagers: "You Dongpan Township killed eleven of our brothers, and today we will arrest eleven of us to pay our lives."
"I stood up consciously after chanting the name, Cheng Susu, He Shuang, Zhou Yi, Cheng Erniu, Tiedan, Cheng Ling, Cheng Yatou, Xiaomai, Cheng Carpenter, Cheng Erlang."
"Hey, one pair, two pairs... Why is there one missing from his mother? Oh, forget it and just take it as a way to spare you one. Come out quickly, or we will slaughter the village."
Erniu stood up first. Just now, when a few people in the old village resisted, he was busy hiding the parts and crossbow arrows of the crossbow. At this time, for the sake of the whole village, he stood up without hesitation.
Then it was Zhou Yi. In order to cover up Cheng Susu and He Shuangjin's cellar, she was caught by bandits. She knew it was dead, but she was not timid.
Then Tiedan, Cheng Ling and Cheng Yatou also stood up.
Finally, it was Carpenter Cheng and Erling Cheng.
Xiaomai broke free from her mother's hand and stood up.
As a result, Liu cried: "Heroic hero, Xiaomai is only ten years old. Can I do it for him? Please, he is still a child."
"You just want to replace me, do I want to save face?"
Zhang Fei slowly raised the long knife in his hand.
Seeing this, the other villagers immediately pulled Liu back.
"One pair, two pairs... Damn, why are there two missing?"
Cheng Hu's mother and Aunt Cheng next door stood up: "The eldest lady and the second lady have gone to the county town, so we will serve them."
"Does I fart what I say? I can't replace it, I can't replace it!"
Zhang Fei was about to run away when he saw this.
As a result, the two old men stood up stubbornly, and several old men also rushed to stand up. Some said they wanted to replace Zhou Yi, while others said they wanted to replace the girl. The scene began to be chaotic for a moment.
Zhang Fei held back his violent temper.
Zhang Fei waved his hand: "Tie them and take them away. Those two old guys don't want them, they have old arms and legs, and they get angry when they see them."
He said to the people of Dongpan Township again: "Listen, I want these people to survive, so that Song Tianming can go to Niushou Mountain alone, with a limit of three days, and it will not be overdue."
This trouble has been delayed a lot of time. The bandits entered the village to kidnap the bill and were somewhat afraid of the government.
With a whim, the bandits retreated completely.
Some of the villagers were busy saving the old lady's men, while others rushed to Wangfu Mountain to find a hunting team.
Now the hunting team cooperates more tacitly, especially the use of crossbows is more accurate.
After more than ten days of overtime work by Song Tianming, the hunting team now has a crossbow, which is extremely firepower.
Along the way, I saw small prey shooting directly, and saw beasts such as wild boars and Heiwazi. Three teams cooperated to lure and kill them.
Just as the hunting team was about to hunt another big insect, news came that the bandits entered the village.
The hunting team didn't even want prey anymore and rushed back to Dongpan Township in a hurry. Unfortunately, the bandits had long disappeared.
Song Tianming hurriedly ran home, but Cheng Susu's face was calm: Husband, go and do business, we're fine.
Song Tianming and the doctor checked several injured one by one, and only Lao Li was injured the worst.
The old friend was already old, so he was beaten by the bandits and fainted.
The old lady didn't wake up until the evening and anxiously asked about the situation in the village.
When I learned that the bandits did not kill or rob property, I just ordered a few haystacks.
Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, I heard the bandits arrested eight people and wanted to pay the dead bandits' lives.
The old friend was anxious and was about to get up, but Song Tianming pressed him down.
"Old family, your legs are seriously injured. Leave the saving of people to me, so you can rest assured to recover."
The old village chief was still worried: "What are you going to do? Erniu and the others were caught in the bandit's nest, but I'm afraid it will be too late..."
"Didn't you find this group of bandits strange? They didn't rob property, didn't kill people, they just tied up a few people. If they were really just to pay the lives of the dead bandits, they just chopped them up, why would they take them back to Niushou Mountain without any effort?"
"But bandits are all extremely vicious people, so how can they be judged by common sense? Anyway, they must find a way to save people as soon as possible."
The old lady is already confused and just wants to save people.
"The people arrested are all people close to me, so don't worry about their safety, at least they will not be in danger for the time being."
Cheng Hu's eyes suddenly flashed: "Brother Ming, do the bandits only want you?"
Wei Wei's veterans didn't understand very well: "For the sake of the current plan, I can only report to the official position. I will go to the city immediately and go to find Hexian Wei."
Song Tianming stopped him and said, "Just relying on more than 500 soldiers in Xiahe County? How could he stand up for us a few common people? The so-called people who have to tie the bells are the ones who have to untie the bells. I decided to go to Niushou Mountain and exchange them for them."
"No." Except for Cheng Hu, almost the dozen people present spoke in unison.
"You really stretched your head in after the bandit made a condom? Are you going to die?"
"Even if the bandits have worked so hard as the young man said, as long as you enter Niushou Mountain, you probably won't be able to come out again in your life."
"It's okay if we don't have anyone left in Dongpan Township, but we can't have a young gentleman."
Song Tianming was very persuasive, but a few people in the old village disagreed.
Song Tianming could only retreat as he advanced and pretended to agree to go to the county town with Wei Wei to report to the official position tomorrow morning.
That night, Song Tianming called Cheng Hu and made some arrangements.
Finally, he reminded Cheng Hu: "Huzi, I'm not here to follow the arrangements of the eldest lady. I will definitely save Cheng Ling back to you."
Cheng Hu had tears in his eyes: "Brother Ming, you must come back alive, I'll wait for you to speak to me about the matchmaking."
The two hugged each other gently and patted each other on the back.
Song Tianming took advantage of the night and went to Niushou Mountain alone.
