The fire was getting closer, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves.
These people didn't slow down at all and rushed straight towards this side, without any worry about waking them up.
Their arrogant attitude shows that in their eyes, the refugees are easier to slaughter than the lambs in the fence.
The people lying on both sides of the official road, holding ropes in their hands, held their breath and stared at the galloping horse team.
As the horses charged, people on both sides pulled the ropes at the same time.
The horse at the front was shocked and frightened, and it lost control. No matter how the person on the horse tried to control it, he could not calm the frightened horse, and was thrown off the horse.
The people behind should brake urgently.
As soon as it stopped, arrows flew out of the air, making a "whoosh whoosh whoosh" sound.
“Puff”…
The bandit holding the torch was hit in the chest by an arrow and fell straight down. The others reacted quickly and narrowly avoided the arrow.
"Damn it! Kill these sons of bitches."
A group led by Nan Wu confronted them.
In the 20-man cyclist team, one person has died and two people have fallen off their horses.
The others were on horses, and they wanted to use their horses to attack the crowd, but Nan Wu did not give them this opportunity.
If a person is hit by a horse, he will be seriously injured if not killed.
"Prepare for the second wave."
Following his order, the people lying in ambush on both sides threw the stones they had prepared long ago at the people on horseback.
They didn't throw randomly, but specifically towards their faces.
These people could only raise their hands to block, while the archers led by Yang Dachuan and Yang Dahe took advantage of this time to shoot arrows.
The two sides cooperated with each other, one was responsible for interference, and the other was responsible for shooting arrows, and they would shoot down whoever they could.
It would be most unwise to confront them head-on.
This current method of play is the easiest and safest, but it cannot be used for a long time.
"dismount."
The leading man gave the order while suppressing his anger.
They were actually made so miserable by a group of ants.
Killing all these people would not be enough to calm the anger in his heart.
The baits hid in the woods, listening to the sounds of fighting outside, the old men and children trembled in their hearts and huddled together tightly.
Madam Xu hugged Niuniu tightly and asked worriedly, "Will they rush over?"
"So far, probably not."
Looking at the situation outside the field, they were already at a disadvantage.
The previous arrogance was slapped hard in the face by reality.
They are now busy dealing with Nan Wu and his group and have no time to observe the situation in the rear camp, so naturally they cannot find them.
A group of people hiding in the distance heard the sounds of fighting a hundred meters away.
Su's mother was worried and held Su Baozhu's hand tightly.
Old man Zhang paced back and forth.
Zhang Laosan's wife originally thought that this group of people were making a fuss out of nothing, but now looking at the situation outside, she was terrified.
She couldn't help but feel lucky that she listened to her uncle's words and didn't stop at the gate of Hui'an Prefecture.
If I stayed, I would probably become a corpse.
The Zhang family, young and old, were both relieved and worried, worried about their family members who were out killing the enemy.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
From the old to the young, no one can sleep peacefully.
The time tonight seemed to be particularly long, the shouting and yelling outside gradually became quieter, and finally returned to silence.
"Are they all dead?" someone whispered.
"That should be it."
Just then, hurried footsteps approached them, and a figure approached under the moonlight. When everyone saw that it was Yang Dashan, they couldn't wait to ask.
"how's it going?"
"Did we win?"
"Is my man okay?"
Yang Dashan smiled and said, "We won."
"real?"
"Absolutely."
"We don't have to hide anymore." Yang Dashan said with a smile.
"Very good."
“We are victorious.”
Everyone finally let go of their tense mood.
Su Yin and others also received the news at the first time and came out of the woods.
The twenty people who came in pursuit were all killed.
Many people in their team were injured, but fortunately most of them were slightly injured and not fatal.
Nan Wu saw Su Yin and said happily, "Your method is very good. After cooperating with each other and driving them off their horses, you combined the two teams into one and used the absolute advantage in numbers to annihilate them at the lowest cost."
A group of rabble, even if they have the advantage in numbers, will not be able to achieve anything without good coordination and effective attacking methods.
This is why in history, those hundreds of thousands of rebel armies were easily defeated by the king's army.
"I just said that casually. I don't know if it will work. I'm still worried about it."
Nan Wu gave her a thumbs up and said, "It's useful. Very useful."
Butcher Yang and Yang Dahe, who had followed Su Yin in searching for corpses before, went to search the bodies without her asking.
The people from Nanwu were very surprised and started searching everyone, but the Zhang family did not move.
Su Yin and Nan Jingzhi squatted beside the leader's body.
Nan Jingzhi picked up the saber in his hand and said, "These sabers are all made by the Ministry of War."
He looked down, "The shoes are also for the Ministry of War."
"These people are definitely soldiers from Hui'an Prefecture."
"The three places in Yunzhou are in chaos. I didn't expect that the officialdom in Meizhou has become so corrupt." Nan Jingzhi's voice was low, revealing a deep disappointment.
Su Yin asked, "Master Nan, how long has the Great Yong Dynasty been established?"
Nan Jing was stunned for a moment, then replied, "There are still two years left, and it will be three hundred years."
"Three hundred years." Su Yin murmured, "It's time."
"What do you mean?"
"It's okay, I just lament that our Great Yong Dynasty has been gone for so long."
Nan Jingzhi knew that this was not what she meant, and since she was unwilling to say more, he did not ask any further questions.
Nan Wu, Butcher Yang and others searched the twenty people thoroughly and placed all the valuables next to the fire.
Nan Jingzhi looked at these things and was not very interested in them, but his subordinates needed them.
The three parties gathered together again, and except for the person who was in charge, everyone else was allowed to rest.
"Today, all three parties have contributed to the extermination of these people. The ownership of these things will be distributed according to the contributions of each of the three parties. Do you have any objections?" Su Yin said.
Nan Wu spoke directly on their behalf, "I have no problem."
The Zhang family was still in a dream, and everyone was in a daze.
They really didn't expect that this time, not only did they not lose anything, but they also made money. Such a good thing was something they couldn't even imagine a quarter of an hour ago.
"We have no problem either." The eldest son of the Zhang family quickly expressed his opinion.
"Since everything is fine, let's sort out all the gains this time."
"Twenty horses, twenty sabers, five short blades, and sixty-three ounces and five cents of silver."
