Did he kill so many?
The guards also showed expressions of joy and disbelief. At that time, they were in the line, waving their weapons as the commander directed, with almost no thoughts in their minds. There was only one word: kill, kill, kill.
If you don't kill others, you will be killed.
Kill, kill for the sake of living.
"Not bad, you have eighty people, and you have achieved such a result at the cost of only thirteen deaths, not to mention that you are fighting against these well-trained..."
Zhu Zan continued speaking and looked at the corpse of the bandit on the ground, but did not say anything else.
Well-trained in what?
Do thieves also need to be well-trained?
The senior manager thought to himself.
However, this time, the Ninth Master was so generous in praising others, which is really rare.
"Of course, you rookies were able to achieve such a result because I was invincible as a hero..."
Zhu Zan's voice then rang out.
Well, he takes that back, the senior manager thought to himself.
Now is not the time to brag, you have accomplished your mission and are not about to retire, so don't celebrate too early.
The senior manager stepped forward calmly.
"Master Jiu, we should leave here as soon as possible." He said, "It's too dangerous here. We have also suffered casualties and we are all very tired. Let's get out of the valley to a safe place as soon as possible. Otherwise, if more bandits come, we won't be so lucky."
Zhu Zan frowned.
"How can you call this luck? This is real skill," he said unhappily.
"Yes, yes, I was wrong." The senior manager didn't dare to argue with the master. He could tell the difference even if there was nothing wrong. He apologized repeatedly, "Let's go quickly. No matter how powerful you are, you can't stand up to their wheel battle. As the saying goes, a good dog can't beat a bad dog."
Zhu Zan nodded.
"Let's retreat." He also waved his hand and said.
The high-ranking commander and his guards immediately retreated, taking the prisoners with them, while temporarily ignoring the wounded bandits and corpses.
They have already sent a fast horse to report to the authorities. The situation here can be cleaned up after the authorities arrive. The most important thing for them now is to leave here safely.
"But why do you say there are more bad dogs than good dogs?" Zhu Zan suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are you calling me a dog?"
Master Jiu, we just came back from the brink of death. Can you be more serious?
The senior managers wanted to bow to him.
"I called those thieves dogs. They were so disgusting and hateful," he said.
Zhu Zan then gave up and looked back.
At this time, they had already lined up and rushed forward. Although they could not see the bloody scene just now, the smell of blood still lingered in their nostrils.
"They were a pack of vicious dogs," he said, nodding. "They were almost completely wiped out before they were defeated and fled. They fought desperately."
At this point he shook his head again.
"What a shame. All this hard work is wasted here."
Otherwise, where else can the thieves fight to the death?
The senior management is a little funny.
"They are not bandits." Lei Zhonglian said.
If we talk about fighting to the death, it's not just these bandits, there's also one person involved.
The senior manager looked at Lei Zhonglian.
"They are pretending to be soldiers, that's why they are so brave." Lei Zhonglian continued. "It was this kind of people who robbed and killed the master."
The senior manager had a complicated look on his face.
He also realized that these thieves were very strange. They had more discipline than desperadoes, which made them even more terrifying.
Is this really the case?
"Old Lei." He called out, watching Lei Zhonglian getting back into the carriage and driving.
There was a rifle beside him, the blood had not yet been wiped off. His expression was still as dull as before, but his eyes were as bright as burning fire.
"We will interrogate him thoroughly this time." The senior manager said sincerely, and then paused for a moment, "The escorts from Yiyouxing are really amazing."
Yiyouxing is the escort agency where Lei Zhonglian works. All the brothers and sisters who were the backbone of the company were killed in the escort mission fifteen years ago. Without the escort masters to support the company and with the failure of the escort mission, the company lost its reputation and thus went bankrupt and closed down.
Lei Zhonglian just felt his eyes turn pale.
"Thank you for the compliment," he said hoarsely.
"Your hand..." The senior manager couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
At this moment Zhu Zan suddenly reined in his horse.
"Stop!" he shouted.
The team stopped immediately, and everyone's heart suddenly rose.
"Ninth Master." Director Gao tightened his grip on the reins and asked.
"Someone is coming from the front." Zhu Zan said, looking solemnly towards the end of the valley.
Who is coming?
Everyone's heart was in their throat, and their bodies were still shaking slightly after just being in a fight.
There was a noisy sound of horse hooves in my ears, and gradually a group of people and horses appeared in my sight, with flags flying and armor on their shoulders.
"They are soldiers."
"It's a government official."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and their expressions became excited and happy.
"You have to believe it so soon."
“That’s great.”
It was his turn to take action again. The senior manager straightened his clothes, put on a smile, but his eyes showed the anxiety of surviving a disaster.
"Officials," he said, urging his horse forward to greet them.
There was a slight sound in my ear.
The senior manager is now very familiar with this sound; it is the sound of a bow loading an arrow.
His body tensed instantly, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Zhu Zan raising his crossbow.
"Three in front, four in back, five on the left, and eight on the right." He said in a deep voice, "Load the crossbows."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat when these words were spoken.
No way.
But after the battle, the guards obeyed instinctively. Although they looked a little dazed, they quickly adjusted their formation, took out their bows and crossbows, and stood ready again.
"Who are you?"
The officers and soldiers in front also stopped and asked loudly.
"But you have reports of encountering bandits?"
They did send someone to report it. The senior official hesitated for a moment, but he did not spur his horse out like he did the last time he faced the bandits.
He now regards the intuition of the Ninth Master as an imperial decree.
"We have encountered bandits." He shouted, "Who are you?"
The troops there started moving again.
"We are the soldiers stationed in Huaiqing Prefecture. We are ordered to suppress the bandits. We came here immediately after hearing the report." The officers and soldiers over there said loudly.
But before they had taken a few steps, an arrow pierced the front of the leading officer's horse with a loud bang.
The horse neighed and was restrained by the officers and soldiers on it.
"What are you doing?" he shouted angrily.
Zhu Zan aimed his crossbow at him.
"Huaiqing Prefecture's garrison troops?" He said slowly, "Who is your pacification envoy? Who is your chief steward? Who is your chief supervisor? Which capital do you belong to? Who is your militia? Do you have the order to suppress the bandits?"
These questions caused a moment of silence on the other side.
The scene became frozen, and even the wind in the valley stopped.
Just when everyone was almost suffocating, the officers and soldiers on the opposite side burst into laughter. They didn't say a word, but just laughed wildly, and the whole valley was shaking with their laughter.
