Chapter 110: The Seventh Battalion of the Border Army is Respectable and Unspeakable!
All the tribesmen were instantly in an uproar, raising their sticks and sickles, and rushing forward to encourage each other.
Just as the two sides were about to clash, at the critical moment, a large group of people suddenly ran over from a distance, raising dust that seemed to cover the sky.
Everyone was shocked and confused. They stopped what they were doing and looked over.
The villagers feared they were the bandits' accomplices, and the bandits feared the government had sent officials and soldiers to round them up. In the blink of an eye, a large group of people and horses were approaching.
The team consisted of two to three hundred people in total, all wearing gray battle robes, leather pants and boots, covered with cloaks, with sabers slung at their waists, and fine iron spears next to their saddles, with the tips of the spears sharp and shining.
The tall and strong horses they rode were also majestic and strong, and the whole team looked awe-inspiring.
The leading general wore an iron helmet and a fur cape, a burly figure with a solemn expression. His cold eyes swept over the crowd, like a knife scraping against their faces...
Border troops!
This must be the border army!
Everyone in the Tai family was so excited that tears streamed down their faces and they cried out loudly.
"General, help! Help!"
"The bandit is going to kill someone! Help!"
The black-faced general waved his hand, and the cavalrymen immediately surrounded the gangsters.
The Tai family quickly retreated and gave the venue to the border troops, fearing that they would be held back by them.
The faces of several gangsters changed, and they clenched the long swords in their hands tightly.
In their view, it was just bullying a group of peasants and venting their anger.
How did they attract a large group of border troops?
This is such bad luck!
The tall, thin man quickly shouted, "It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! General, we mean no harm!"
Master Tai jumped up and cursed, "Screw your grandfather's misunderstanding. I said it was a misunderstanding just now, but you still wanted to kill us! Now you say it was a misunderstanding, it's too late!"
The villagers also shouted and felt extremely happy.
"You deserve it! You came here suddenly wanting to be beaten and killed, you deserve to be arrested!"
"The Border Army is the protector of our fellow northerners. You are dead!"
The dark-faced general glanced at both sides and asked in a cold voice, "Is this Taijia Village?"
Old Master Tai looked at the border troops with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he stepped forward, saluted, and answered loudly, "I am Tai Baocheng, a retired wounded soldier from the Seventh Battalion of the Border Army. I greet the General."
Seventh Battalion?
When this number was reported, the eyes of the black-faced general and all the border troops fell on Grandpa Tai.
Old Master Tai stood with his back straight and his chin held high, letting them look at him.
After a long time, the black-faced general actually dismounted and returned the salute solemnly.
"He Xiong, the captain of the Third Battalion of the Border Army, meets the old hero!"
The rest of the border troops, except for the dozen or so who were besieging the Jianghu people, all returned the greetings, but without raising their voices.
No one in Taijia Village knew what was going on, but the fact that Uncle Six received such courtesy just because he reported a number showed that he must have been very powerful back then.
And these border troops in front of us are one family!
Master Tai San immediately stepped forward and said, "Sixth Brother, the bad guy has been arrested. These little brothers seem to have come from a long way. Why don't you invite them to your home to drink some mutton soup to warm their stomachs? We can talk slowly."
Old Master Tai nodded, then spoke briefly to He Xiong.
"General He, my granddaughter was abducted by kidnappers in the city. I led my clansmen to track down the kidnappers and captured three of them. Someone spread the word that I defeated three of the bandits by myself.
"These people may have heard what happened, so they came to our village today to vent their anger. If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid our village would have been flooded with blood by now. General, if it is convenient for you, could you please arrest them? We can talk about this at home."
He Xiong frowned, his eyes sweeping over the few Jianghu people, and cursed loudly, "The grassland wolf tribe and the yellow-haired people of Luosha country are harassing the border all the time. You have the ability to kill people, but instead of defending your homeland, you actually come here to oppress the people. It's really annoying and hateful!"
After that, he instructed the soldiers, "Capture them, tie them up, and bring them back to the border to repair the city for three years!"
"yes!"
The soldiers agreed and were ready to take action immediately.
A few gangsters were still hoping for a lucky break, thinking they could get away with it by saying a few nice words.
Unexpectedly, what awaited them was three years of hard labor.
They have been hanging around in the underworld and are not used to being restricted. How could they be willing to go to the border!
No one knew who reacted first, but they fled frantically without waiting for the soldiers to take action.
When facing foreign enemies, the soldiers practiced bold and aggressive sword techniques, which put them at a disadvantage when facing cunning people in the martial arts world.
For a moment, several gangsters were throwing thunder balls, spreading powder, and brandishing knives, using all their means.
The soldiers are not fools. Two hundred against ten, they cannot be defeated no matter what.
Soon, nine gangsters were caught and pinned to the ground, including the bearded man.
Only the tall and thin man had great light body skills and managed to escape the encirclement and run towards the forest behind the village.
Once you enter the forest, no matter how many people are chasing you, it will be useless.
Coincidentally, Tai Jicang had previously shown the way to these people in the martial arts world, and he was eager to see how the Tai family would fare.
He hurried as fast as he could and ran to the vicinity of Taijia Village on foot, but he was afraid of being discovered so he hid outside the village and kept looking around.
Just then, a tall and thin man from the underworld came out and saw him head-on.
The tall and thin man was furious. If it weren't for this idiot sitting at the city gate and crying, leading them here, they would have already rushed back to the south to enjoy a good life!
