Ning Ye had already seen them before, but at that time he did not plan to exchange them all. After all, how could a group of people he could not completely trust deserve the best weapons?
But things are different now. These people have completely passed Ning Ye's test, and now they should be properly equipped to ensure their combat effectiveness.
Although Ning Ye said it was useless, he still exchanged all of these items. Sugar is always useful, and it seems that Lin Qinshu likes sweets.
After exchanging all the items, they were piled up on the ground, and Ning Ye told Wang Wu and the others to come and get them themselves.
When Wang Wu and his group arrived and saw these exquisite weapons, they were almost dumbfounded. So many superb weapons were laid out in front of them.
Even Wang Wu, who had served in the army and considered himself to have seen a bit of the world, could only imagine that the weapons used by that general were probably of this caliber.
Wang Wu glanced at Ning Ye, and he really couldn't imagine where Ning Ye had gotten so many sophisticated weapons.
Looking at the scrap metal in his hand, he figured it would be cut in two strokes.
"You can choose the weapon that suits you best, the spear or the sword. I also have two crossbows here. One is for Wang Wu, and the other will depend on who kills more people next."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up with fervor. They had always known that Ning Ye possessed an extremely powerful crossbow, which shot out like lightning, making it impossible to see clearly.
These powerful weapons are now going to be the reward, and no one wants to miss such an opportunity. Those who like spears immediately picked them up, and those who like swords also stroked the blades with great affection.
Ning Ye handed one of the crossbows directly to Wang Wu, saying, "I don't need to teach you how to use this, right?"
Wang Wu stroked the crossbow with some excitement, saying, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely use this divine weapon to kill many enemies."
The civilian-grade crossbow is almost half the size of Ning Ye's, and it's even possible to hold it with one hand. Its performance in all aspects is naturally much worse, but it's still a rare find for these people.
Ningye began using the medical kit to bandage the wounds of some of the more seriously injured people. The medical kit contained a complete set of items.
One medical kit was clearly not enough. It was enough to treat the wounds of the seriously wounded, but those with minor injuries had to tear off strips of cloth and bandage themselves.
Wang Wu had been following Ning Ye closely, observing Ning Ye's techniques, and was even more surprised when he saw what he was doing.
Ning Ye was not only very skilled in martial arts, but he also knew medicine. His methods of treating wounds seemed to be far superior to those of the military doctors in the army.
This made Wang Wu feel that Ning Ye was destined to rise to prominence in the future, and having him by his side at this time was a tremendous opportunity for him.
Meanwhile, the fire inside the mountain stronghold had not been extinguished, and all the houses had been destroyed. The dozens of people gathered under the flames were all blinded by rage.
Hu Erbiao, who had risked his life to escape, was kneeling on the ground, in front of a bald, burly man with his upper body bare.
"Speak! Did you betray us and deliberately bring these people back? Otherwise, how could we have suffered such heavy losses tonight?"
Hu Erbiao, who hadn't suffered much of a beating with Ning Ye, was now being beaten into a pulp by his own men. "Second Boss, I really risked my life to come back and deliver the message. I would never betray my own people!"
"But things have already turned out this way. How can you expect me to believe what you're saying? How am I supposed to explain this to so many brothers?"
Hu Erbiao quickly said, "Since the chief is dead and the third chief has not returned, I think the only one who can lead us is you, the second chief. I am willing to lead the way to where this kid lives. When we get revenge, the brothers will naturally follow your lead."
The second-in-command stood up and said, "Gentlemen, I think Old Hu has a point. Since that's the case, we shouldn't delay. These guys were just running away, so let's go and catch them off guard to avenge our fallen brothers!"
This statement was met with enthusiastic support from everyone. All the remaining horses were led out, and forty or fifty people came out in full force.
The sound of horses' hooves gave them confidence. They hadn't ridden horses before, and now that they knew their attackers were just a group of newly assembled local militia, their hearts began to pound with excitement.
There's only one main road that allows horseback riding up and down the mountain; there's simply no other place to ride horses.
Ning Ye and his group had already laid an ambush at the entrance to the mountain, as this was the only place with dense bushes suitable for an ambush.
As the sound of horses' hooves grew closer, Ning Ye made a gesture, and everyone understood and gripped their weapons tightly, ready to obey Ning Ye's command.
When the torchlight came into view, Ning Ye waved his hand, and the two ropes that had been tied beforehand were pulled taut. Amidst the flying dust, the horse rammed into them.
In an instant, people and horses were thrown about, knocking down more than a dozen people before those behind them hurriedly stopped.
Ning Ye roared, "Kill them all!"
A fierce battle ensued, but Ning Ye did not charge forward this time. Instead, he guarded his position and kept searching for his target.
Wang Wu charged ahead; there was no need for him to throw himself into the chaos of battle, nor could he guarantee that he wouldn't get hurt.
This incredibly precise remote support is even more effective in a conflict with a small number of people.
After a brief period of panic, the bandits finally came to their senses and immediately engaged in battle again. This time, the ferocity they displayed was worthy of the reputation they had previously earned.
They soon discovered that the guys who had previously posed many challenges to them were now behaving with remarkable composure.
After several clashes, the weapon in his hand was actually cut in half. Without a weapon, he was like a toothless tiger, left to be slaughtered at will.
The cavalry's lethality came from their mobility and charge, but now they were completely bound in place, which caused them to lose their advantage, and long spears were sent at them from all directions.
The battle escalated rapidly from the start, and Wang Wu went straight for the bald second-in-command.
Only this person was able to dodge the attacks repeatedly, and even injured several of his brothers.
