Chapter Thirty-Six Fighting the Bandits(1/2)
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Qi'an clearly felt a coldness in the air. There was a murderous intention hidden in that coldness.
"Oh, really? It seems that the top of my Dongzi Mountain is not hard enough. Please don't move, sir. In this case, I won't be polite."
The next moment, a group of bandits behind them were waving big swords in their hands. Under the leadership of Hou San, they wanted to flatten Dongshan Village in one fell swoop.
"Monkey Three, please be careful."
"Okay, boss, my subordinates are familiar with this matter. Don't worry."
Hou San sneered and looked at Su Qi'an and the others with fierce eyes.
What if their boss didn't have good intentions? He had to wait for Su Qi'an to come back, and according to his wishes, kill a group of them first, until Su Qi'an was frightened.
He is just a scholar, so what qualifications do he have to be arrogant and arrogant? What Monkey Three hates the most is this kind of sour scholar.
Just cut it off with a single knife, how can there be so much trouble?
Just when this group of bandits was about to attack and flatten Dongshan Village, suddenly, a rapid sound of breaking wind sounded.
An arrow, like a death scythe, shot from behind instantly, killing a bandit.
With this arrow taking the lead, a large number of breaking winds sounded from behind.
The sky was full of arrows, heading straight towards the group of bandits. The sudden change caused the group of bandits to cause a commotion.
"Don't be chaotic, each find a hiding place and fight back!"
Mr. Liu, who was worthy of being on the battlefield, shouted loudly and quickly stopped the commotion.
The group of bandits who had previously wanted to attack the village immediately looked for shelter and opportunities to fight back.
Mr. Liu's face was cold, and he glanced into the distance. He glanced at the jungle in the distance and quickly spotted the ambush.
These people are not ordinary people. The county and city seconded soldiers from Lingbei County to maintain order.
Some time ago, he had dealt with this group of soldiers. These soldiers were much more powerful than the government officials, if it weren't for Mr. Liu's family occupying the terrain.
And be informed in advance that the soldiers are invading and be prepared, otherwise you may really suffer a loss.
This time, this group of soldiers actually gathered again and came directly to kill them, which really shocked Master Liu.
But Mr. Liu was not an ordinary person, his eyes flashed, he turned to look at Su Qi'an who had already prepared a defensive posture, and sneered.
"This must be Mr. Su's trump card. He deliberately delays, waits for reinforcements, and then attacks from both front and back to catch them all in one fell swoop. Mr. Su's plan is really clever."
"It seems that you have gained a lot from your trip to Lingbei County. I really underestimate you."
Su Qi'an did not respond to Mr. Liu's suggestion. Instead, he commanded a group of hunters, ready to counterattack at any time.
Mr. Liu sneered, looked past the people behind Su Qi'an, and said again.
"Mr. Su's plan is high-end, but it misses one thing. How many people can Mr. Su's men withstand the attack of this master?"
"You'll know if you try it." Su Qi'an said calmly.
"Okay, Mr. Su is so confident, so I will fulfill his wish."
"Monkey Three, pass my order, leave half of the men to stop these soldiers, and the rest will rush into Dongshan Village for me!"
"Remember, except for Su Qi'an and his family, no one else lives or lives. I want to capture Su Qi'an alive!"
"Brothers, come to me. The head of the house has an order to capture Su Qi'an alive and reward him with a hundred taels of silver! He will be promoted to the third head of the house!"
Hou San's words were like giving these bandits a bloodbath.
Everyone was holding a big sword, roaring and rushing towards the village without fear of death.
When Xie Cang led the soldiers to take action, Su Qi'an quietly directed the Orion team to start taking action.
When the bandits started rioting, they immediately covered the villagers and retreated into the village.
And all the counterattack weapons that should be brought out were brought out. Each of the brothers in the Orion team was equipped with a longbow and twenty arrows.
And at the same time, they replaced the machetes that could no longer decay, and everyone had a chilling look on their faces.
They know that they are Dongshan Village's first line of defense and the most critical line of defense.
No matter who they face in front of them, they can only fight to the death.
Because behind them are their homes, relatives, and friends. For them, the only option is to fight to the death!
Seeing the dense crowd of bandits rushing in without fear of death, Su Qi'an stood at the front with a calm face, staring at the approaching bandits.
But he did not give the order to take action, but waited for the opportunity.
"Two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred and twenty steps... it's not enough."
Su Qi'an looked at the approaching bandit and muttered. Until the bandit stepped sixty steps away, he could feel the vicious aura emanating from the bandit's body.
At this time, Su Qi'an shouted, "Listen to my order and cum for me!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Countless arrows, containing a sharp aura, were shot out quickly from behind Su Qi'an.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The arrows collided with the broadsword, making a metallic sound. Although some of them were blocked, more of them shot through the bandit's chest, thighs, and forehead one by one.
The bandits who were at the forefront fell to the ground with blood pouring out, but even so, they could not stop this group of bandits from fearing death.
After all, they are all a group of desperadoes. If they are scared to pieces by such a scene, then they are not worthy of going to Dongzi Mountain.
Arrows continued to be shot, and the bandits did not stop and charged frantically.
As they got closer, the bandits who attacked this time got smarter and changed to a new group of people. This group of people held wooden shields and rushed to the forefront.
The arrows were sharp and could be shot on thick wooden shields. They only caused the wooden shield-hands to retreat a little and were not injured.
From this point of view, it can be seen that the Liu family is unusual. The bandits on other mountaintops have such a posture. They not only have horses, but also special shield bearers.
With this kind of posture, it is not unreasonable for Dongzishan to dominate Lingbei and Lingdong counties.
The attack was thwarted. Under the cover of the shield hand, the group of bandits suddenly rushed to within 40 steps of Su Qi'an.
At this time, Su Qi'an shouted loudly and got on the ballista.
Immediately afterwards, a large ballista was pushed directly up from behind Orion.
The arrows on the crossbow are fully loaded, and the next moment, the crossbow starts.
Ten thick and long arrows, like a fierce tiger, pierced the wooden shield hand in one go.
Not only that, the power of the arrows was transmitted, not only the wooden shield bearer was killed on the spot, but also the bandits hiding behind him.
Just like piercing a skewer, it penetrated seven or eight in an instant. With one volley, the ten arrows from the heavy ballista penetrated most of the wooden shield bearer's defense.
Seeing this scene, the bandits behind them all had solemn expressions on their faces. The emotions that were so hot just now suddenly cooled down a lot, and their pace of advancement also slowed down at this time.
This heavy ballista is so powerful, if it comes several times, they may all die here.
Although the boss's reward is tempting, you have to have the life to get it. If you die, the huge reward will be useless.
The bandit was in a low mood, and Monkey Three who was following him naturally noticed it, and he shouted loudly.
"Why the hell are you in such a daze that you are giving up now? Are you worried about your longevity?"
"The power of the heavy ballista is very strong, but its disadvantage is that it takes a long time. If we all rush here, the reward is right in front of us."
"Brothers, you can find wealth in danger. You can rush to the village in two minutes at most. That's when we will kill everyone. Come rush with me!"
Hou San had some knowledge about this heavy ballista, and directly pointed out its shortcomings. After some encouragement from him, and Hou San taking the lead in the charge.
The remaining half of the bandits looked at each other and gritted their teeth. Monkey Three was right. Wealth can be found in danger.
With a fierce look on his face, he charged forward again with the knife in hand.
Just as Monkey Three said, after the heavy ballistae fired a salvo, in the next two minutes, only the bows and arrows of the hunters fired. As for the heavy ballistae, it seemed as if the engine was turned off and there was no movement.
Monkey Three sneered, holding a wooden shield to resist the arrow attack, and approached as fast as possible.
Under Hou San's example, the remaining bandits rushed directly to be only ten steps away from Su Qi'an.
At this time, the hunters who were shooting arrows, after shooting another round of arrows, took out their machetes and strode forward to fight hand to hand with the bandits.
At such a close distance, the power of bows and arrows has been greatly reduced, and the next step is close combat!
Twenty or thirty hunters, like crazy, led by the four captains Li Hu, Zhao Da, Tieniu and Shuisheng, fought the bandits with the same fearless death.
Both sides fought tooth and nail, and the battle became fierce once they met.
Su Qi'an stood at the back, staring solemnly at the fierce battle in front of him.
At this time, Hou San got rid of a hunter, and the next moment, holding a big knife, he went straight to Su Qi'an.
Hou San looked at him with a stern eyebrow and rat eyes, but he was very clever, otherwise he would not be valued by the boss and stay by his side at all times.
He could tell at a glance that the key to this battle was the scholar Su Qian.
As long as he can capture Su Qi'an, the situation in this battle can be reversed in an instant.
At that time, the villagers in Dongshan Village will not be able to be honest.
He could tell at a glance that Su Qi'an was the backbone of Dongshan Village. He had to ask Su Qi'an about any matter, big or small.
