Suddenly, his vision blurred and a figure appeared in front of him.
Before he could react, a punch came straight at his face!
Pfft!
Like a spilled sauce bottle, the bandit leader's nose bled, staining half his face red.
who!
The bandit leader was greatly alarmed.
Unexpectedly, someone on the other side dared to resist.
Enraged, he prepared to find his target and tear him to pieces.
To his surprise, a weapon that resembled neither a sword nor a knife, a weapon he had never seen before, was placed against his neck with an icy, ghostly touch.
The chilling aura emanating from the blade sent a shiver down his spine.
At this moment, the servants and retainers of Zhenjiazhuang were all covered in blood and wounds.
There were also twenty-three people lying on the ground, and they were clearly not going to survive.
These Black Mountain soldiers are deadly when they strike.
They were not ordinary refugees, but people who had participated in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and fought against government troops!
These servants were no match for them.
Within a few breaths, only a handful of the guards protecting Zhen Yao remained, and he was also slashed in the back, leaving his handsome face in a terrible state.
If I had known this would happen, I would have given them the 10,000 shi of grain!
Now look what's happened! Forget about food supplies, we're almost out of a living!
"Mr. Liu, quickly force this bandit leader to make his men stop! Otherwise, Yao'er will be dead!"
When Zhang saw that Liu Wei had come to her rescue in her time of crisis, she was extremely grateful. However, when she saw that her son was about to be killed, she hurriedly cried out.
After being slashed twice more, Zhen Yao bled continuously.
Seeing that he had been taught a lesson enough, Liu Wei tightened his grip:
"If you want to live, tell all your men to stop!"
The bandit leader was held at knifepoint and unable to move.
The moment Liu Wei made his move, the bandit leader knew that this man was exceptionally skilled, and he didn't dare to even entertain the thought of escaping.
Hearing Liu Wei's words, he felt as if he had received a royal decree and shouted to his men, "Stop! All of you, stop!"
His men were engrossed in the killing and didn't notice that their leader had been taken into custody!
Hearing the bandit leader's shout, they all looked over and discovered that their leader had a knife to his throat.
"Stop it! Do you want me dead?!"
The bandit leader saw that some of his men were standing there dumbfounded with their knives in hand, while others were still hacking and slashing at the servants of the Zhen family manor, so he shouted loudly again.
At this moment, all the subordinates stopped, gathered together, and stared longingly at their leader who had been subdued by Liu Wei.
Zhen Yao was covered in blood and was helped up by the servants. He then discovered that it was Liu Wei who had saved his life.
Recalling his previous sarcastic remarks towards Liu Wei, Zhen Yao felt extremely conflicted.
"Make them withdraw immediately! And the troops outside the village as well."
Liu Wei then said coldly, "If you want to live, send your Black Mountain Army's commander, Zhang Yan, to see me!"
He could tell that these Black Mountain Army cavalrymen were all brave and fierce, and should be Zhang Yan's core force.
The person he captured was able to lead a thousand cavalrymen on his mission, which shows that he must have been a trusted general of Zhang Yan.
Otherwise, Zhang Yan wouldn't have entrusted these cavalrymen to him!
Originally, he only planned to come to Zhenjiazhuang to pick up girls, but unexpectedly he ran into Zhang Yan's trusted cavalry.
Moreover, it looks like Zhang Yan must be nearby!
If Zhang Yan learns that this person has been detained, she will definitely come in person.
In this way, Liu Wei can speak directly with Zhang Yan.
With Zhang Yan subdued, the million-strong Black Mountain Army would be brought under their control.
The bandit leader was shocked when he heard Liu Wei address Zhang Yan by her first name.
However, he also understood that only their commander-in-chief could save him.
"Withdraw! All of you, withdraw quickly and go to Wuji to fetch the commander-in-chief."
The bandit leader hurriedly gave orders to his men.
"Vice Commander, what if he kills you after we've all left?"
The bandits' men shouted.
"He won't kill me!" The deputy commander, disregarding the fact that he was still being held by Liu Wei, shouted angrily at his men, "Stop talking nonsense, go now!"
Upon hearing this, his men gradually withdrew!
Then the sound of hooves faded into the distance, and the cavalry surrounding Zhenjiazhuang also withdrew.
The Zhen family manor was suddenly left with only the wounded servants and retainers.
"Men, tie him up!" Liu Wei shouted.
Two servants immediately came and tied up the deputy commander.
"Kill him! Kill him now!" Upon seeing this, Zhen Yao disregarded the knife wound on his back and wanted to kill the deputy commander to vent his anger.
Zhen Yao pushed the servants he was helping, ready to attack the deputy commander.
"If it weren't for this brave man's intervention, would you have been able to capture me?"
The deputy commander was not afraid at all, and sneered, "If you want to kill me, Zhang Baiqi, the commander will definitely raze your Zhen Family Village to the ground."
"Without my permission, anyone who touches him will die!"
Seeing that Zhen Yao was about to attack Zhang Baiqi, Liu Wei naturally wouldn't allow it. "And you, as a prisoner, why aren't you behaving yourself? What kind of nonsense are you spouting?"
"Do you think I really care whether you live or die? Once Zhang Yan arrives, whether you live or die is entirely up to her!"
Seeing Liu Wei's piercing gaze, Zhang Baiqi immediately wilted and remained silent.
At this moment, Zhang, still shaken, came over to express her gratitude.
If Liu Wei hadn't intervened, she might have been violated by this bandit leader.
"I was only asked to do this by your daughter."
Liu Wei waved his hand.
"These thieves will surely come again. I wonder how Mr. Liu plans to deal with it?"
"And set out a table of fine wine and food here, I'm getting hungry!"
Liu Wei had already sheathed his sword and said with a laugh, "You can all hide in the manor. If the thieves come again, I'll handle them all by myself, hahaha!"
