Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

Chapter 103
"Kill!"

As the silence of the night was broken, Han Wu rushed over with hundreds of brave guards.

Hu Qiang and other hunters bent their bows and set arrows. After reaching the shooting range, they shot out an arrow. At least one of the three arrows hit.

Taking advantage of the formation of the officers and soldiers being disrupted by the clay bomb, Chen Mo rushed forward on horseback.

An officer and soldier stepped forward to block him and was knocked several feet away by the maroon horse. The officer and soldier beside him quickly picked up the spear on the ground and stabbed Chen Mo.

But at this moment, a sword flashed in front of their eyes.

puff!

As the head rolled down, a stream of blood gushed out from the broken neck.

Chen Mo took the lead and charged into the crowd.

Seeing the officers and soldiers resting in the salt warehouse rushing out, Chen Mo took off the last clay pot bomb, lit the fuse, and threw it away.

The clay bomb exploded in the crowd, scattering countless fragments.

Some officers and soldiers just heard a buzzing sound in their ears, and suddenly felt a slight heat and sticky feeling on their cheeks. They gently stretched out their hands and wiped it, and it was clear that blood was gurgling down to the hollow of their necks.

Some officers and soldiers were frightened and wanted to run away, but suddenly they felt pain in their calves. They lowered their eyes and felt shocked. It was obvious that they were bleeding, and the slightest movement caused a heartbreaking pain.

Others were rolling on the ground.

The surrounding officers and soldiers had never seen such a scene before. As the garrison of the county town, they had never been on the battlefield to kill anyone. When they suddenly saw such a bloody scene, they were all frightened.

In addition, at this time, a group of dark people from the other side came, and they were immediately frightened and fled in all directions.

Chen Mo slashed several of them, killing three in and three out, like a god of war.

The brave guards were inspired by his strength and fought with the remaining officers and soldiers one by one, three against each other.

These ten days of hard training have finally paid off.

It's a pity that there is no battle formation, so it seems a bit chaotic.

In less than a quarter of an hour, hundreds of garrison troops were dying and fleeing.

As for the officers and soldiers who escaped, Chen Mo did not kill them all. He was not a murderous person.

Mainly, business matters.

"Hurry up. The first team and the second team will take off their armor and collect all their weapons. The third team, bring up all the mule carts and donkey carts."

After saying that, Chen Mo got off his horse and entered the salt warehouse.

"I have to be a good boy"

Hu Qiang, who followed closely behind, couldn't help but click his tongue when he looked at the mountains of coarse salt piled up in the salt warehouse.

"Quick, quick, hurry up and load the bags into the car. Our time is limited, so we have to move fast. Move, move."

Chen Mo suppressed the excitement in his heart and quickly urged the soldiers to pack salt.

There are iron bars in the salt warehouse.

If there are no iron bars, just dig it out with your hands and put it into a bag.

A quarter of an hour later, two mule carts, a donkey cart, and an ox cart, a total of six carts, were fully loaded.

This was not over yet, Chen Mo also ordered each person to carry at least thirty more kilograms.

"Walk."

Chen Mo was no longer nostalgic and waved his hand.

Hearing this, a soldier looked at the salt warehouse and cried mournfully: "Master Chen Xian, there is still so much salt that has not been moved."

Now the brave guards also know that the food they eat is earned by selling private salt.

Seeing that there is still so much salt that cannot be taken away is simply worse than killing him.

Hu Qiang on the side hesitated for a moment and suggested: "Master Chen, why don't we run a few more times, we are not afraid of getting tired."

Chen Mo laughed angrily at these words: "Why do you think Yancang is our own village? Come and leave whenever you want?"

If we wait for all the garrison troops in Qingting County to arrive, we will not be able to leave and we will retreat. "

"Then I'll carry more."

……

On the mountain road, there was a little light of fire.

The cattle, mules and horses moved with heavy steps, dragging the cargo loaded with coarse salt forward step by step.

When we were about to arrive at the village, the sky was already getting a little brighter. "who?"

Still three miles away from the village, a vigilant inquiry came from the dark night.

"it's me."

"slogan."

"The King of Heaven and Earth Tiger."

"The pagoda town river demon."

There was a little fire in the forest next to it, and two spies sent by the Brave Guard to keep an eye on the situation came out holding torches.

"Master Chen Xian." The two said respectfully.

Chen Mo patted the two of them on the shoulders: "You are very vigilant."

After returning to the village, Chen Mo immediately ordered people to weigh the coarse salt and count the ordnance paid.

Then the battle achievements of each brave guard are recorded, and there are rewards for killing enemies.

However, there are currently no rules for cutting off heads or ears to record military exploits, so for the time being, military exploits are recorded orally, with the testimony of others.

Everyone wants military exploits, and they know each other well, so lying will definitely be exposed.

In addition, even those who did not kill the enemy, those who participated in today's "robbery" will also be rewarded.

This movement naturally woke up the people in the village.

They all got up to see if their husbands/sons were okay.

This raid went quite smoothly.

The officers and soldiers of Yancang were caught off guard and were frightened out of their wits. On the Shen Yong Guard's side, only six died and 17 were injured.

The compensation standard is the same as before.

The weighing of coarse salt will not be completed for a while, but the ordnance has been inventoried.

230 seven pieces of armor were delivered, [-] of which were damaged.

21 spears.

170 official knives.

Ten longbows.

There were twelve strong crossbows, two of which were damaged.

A few iron grips.

Yes, they brought back all the iron bars from the salt warehouse.

Qingting County Government Office.

It's late at night.

Magistrate Qingting was sleeping with his third concubine in his arms, when the housekeeper's call came from outside the house, followed by a rapid knock on the door.

Magistrate Qingting was woken up and cursed angrily.

The housekeeper said: "Sir, it's bad, something big happened in the salt warehouse. Some thieves robbed the salt warehouse."

"what?"

At first, Magistrate Qingting was still sleepy. When he heard the words thieves and robbing salt warehouses, he suddenly became more awake.

He pushed away the little concubine who was holding him, and without even putting on his shoes, he hurriedly opened the door and asked the housekeeper what happened.

When the housekeeper told Magistrate Qingting what happened, the latter suddenly frowned.

An exploding can?

The sentry tower collapsed instantly?

Kill several people with one knife?

Countless thieves
The more Qingting County Magistrate listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. He said solemnly: "Could it be that the group of Tianshi rebels came here? But I didn't receive any news about the fall of Nanyang.
What do those thieves look like? "

"According to the living soldiers, it was too dark at night to see clearly, but some of them were wearing the same armor as us," the steward said.

"The same armor?" Magistrate Qingting frowned even more. Many of those Heavenly Master rebels were wearing the same armor as them, and they were all snatched from their hands.

"Hurry up and send someone to notify Chang Yuan." Qingting County Magistrate said.
