The strongest militia

() Looking at the bandits who were still extremely arrogant just now, they squatted on the side like wooden stakes and dared not move easily. Those villagers who had just been knocked over or bullied all looked carefully at the bandits who had just entered today. Strangers in the village.For them, being able to turn such a ferocious bandit into such an honest person is all stronger than the bandit.

For the fear shown in the villagers' eyes, Deng Chenggong really felt a little bit pained. Right now, the bandits didn't dare to move at all, but these villagers didn't even have any intention of revenge.Could it be that the Qing government's obedience policy is really so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people?Is it impossible to wipe out the blood of the majestic Han nation?

Fortunately, compared to these honest villagers, there are still a few sensible people in this village. Just when Deng Chenggong was a little bit resentful and ready to ask these villagers why they were so timid, the village head Li Xiucai who had been hiding at home hurried away Come out, call a few villagers to pick up the guns discarded by these bandits and put them together.As for the boss whose head was shot, and the corpse that was still preparing to fight back against the bandits, these villagers didn't pay much attention.

'Master Deng, what are you going to do with these bandits next? '

Li Xiucai, who had collected everything, stepped forward to inquire in a timely manner. In fact, he was really happy from the bottom of his heart that Deng Chenggong had cleaned up these bandits.But while he was happy, he worried that after these bandits were released, when Deng succeeded in leaving that day, their village would really be in big trouble.That's why I had to ask carefully!

Hearing Li Xiucai's inquiry and the worry in his eyes, Deng Chenggong thought about it and understood what he was worried about. He didn't know what to do with these people for a while.If you say that all these people were shot, it would cost nearly a dozen lives.But let them go for nothing like this, maybe this group of guys will come out to harm the common people one day.Deng Chenggong thought he couldn't do this kind of thing of letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

After thinking about this clearly, he ignored Li Xiucai's inquiry, walked up to a group of bandits and said, "Now I will give you a chance to point out those of you who have killed ordinary people. Except for those who have no ordinary people's lives in their hands, I can Make an exception and let him go, and the others will be shot on the spot. Don’t think that nothing will happen if you don’t say anything, then don’t blame me for killing you all. You know, if you are all shot, maybe I can still go to the county to get a few rewards! Hurry up and tell me!"

After thinking about it for a long time, Deng Chenggong could only come up with the idea of ​​shooting one or two bandits with lives in their hands, and making an exception for the bandits with no lives in their hands to let them go.He knew very well that not all the people who went to the mountains to be bandits these days were bad people, they were all ordinary people who couldn't survive outside the mountains.It is said that a thousand words and ten thousand are harmed by this idiot's world!

As the first bandit who was afraid of death identified the small leader of a bandit team, before the other party could resist, Deng Chenggong unceremoniously smashed it into pieces with a shell gun found on the leader. The opponent's head.This method frightened all the bandits present.Some bandits, who knew they had lives in their hands, had no intention of resisting at this time, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.And those bandits who didn't have any lives in their hands, although they were also scared at the moment, they were at least calmer than those who had killed people.

Looking at the five or six bandits who were kneeling and begging for mercy, Deng Chenggong asked them to voluntarily confess their evil deeds, and at the same time asked the rest of the bandits to be witnesses.Hearing that although these bandits had lives, most of them did so because they obeyed the boss's orders and did not take the initiative to kill the people. Deng Chenggong thought twice, and finally let those bandits who had no lives Bundle them all up for disposal.

'May I have your name?How many people are there on your mountain?Where is it? '

Deng Chenggong, who stabilized the scene, asked the young bandit who was the first to stand up and identify the murderer.

"Back to the uncle, the younger one's surname is Liu, and the older ones call me Er Gouzi."This time the team was led by the head of the mountain. Except the second head and a dozen brothers who were still staying on the mountain, there were more than a dozen village girls who were robbed by the head of the mountain.Our cottage is at Yingzui Ridge in the Jiulong Mountains, and it is only a dozen miles away from here on the mountain road. '

Liu Ergou replied cautiously, the reason why he was the first to identify that little boss still contained a little selfishness.Because, Liu Ergou was also forced by these bandits to join the gang in the mountains, and an uncle of his family died under the gun of this little boss.It's just that due to the deterrence of the little boss, he didn't dare to take revenge easily.Now that he finally had a chance to take revenge, he naturally confessed the little boss happily.

After figuring out that these bandits were indeed the bandits in Jiulong Mountain as Li Xiucai said, Deng Chenggong said again: "Now I will give you a chance to clean up your face, as long as you take me to the place where you are hiding. After I clean up the bandits on your mountain, I can give you some extra oceans and let you return to ordinary people, are you willing?"

ocean!

Hearing that there was Dayang leading the way, Liu Ergou, who was a little worried at first, quickly nodded and said: "Since the uncle gave Er Gouzi face, then Er Gouzi will take you there. As for Dayang, I don't want it, I just hope The uncle can keep the little one by his side, and the little one feels very honored!"

I can't see that such a small bandit has such a conversation and quality. Deng Chenggong felt a little surprised and said: "I heard you talking, it seems that you shouldn't be an ordinary bandit? Have you ever been to school?"

Sure enough, Liu Ergou was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said: "Returning to the old man, the little one is not lucky to go to school, but the villain's uncle was originally a private school teacher, and he read some words by his side, which made the old man laugh." gone."

Seeing that his guess was correct, Deng Chenggong did not continue to ask Liu Ergou about his life experience. As long as he is not a traitor or something, he would give him a chance to start a new life.

After questioning Li Xiucai, Deng successfully found a few brave young men from the village to accompany him up the mountain, and left Li Xiucai and two hunters who could use guns to guard the bandits.Before it was too late for Tianse, he re-entered Jiulong Mountain under the leadership of Liu Ergou.

Seeing the cautious expressions of these young people around him, Deng Chenggong had to remind: "If you are afraid, just wait for my news outside the stockade later. But don't blame me for talking too much, if you continue to be so bold I am afraid of things, even if I take this bandit den today, there will be other bandits who will continue to rob you. Is it possible for you to continue to indulge those bandits? You have seen it just now. In fact, these bandits look You are vicious, but as long as you are more vicious than them, they will be afraid of you. Don’t you want to protect your own family members, and the food you have worked so hard to grow?”

Although he knew that his words would not have much effect, what made Deng Chenggong happy was that, except for the two young people who were still indifferent, the seven or eight young people in Jiyu seemed to be a little thoughtful.In the end, a young man who seemed to be about his own age said: "Mr. is right, these bandits carry their heads on their shoulders. I'm afraid they will do something. Now that we have guns in our hands, if they dare to rob us, they will use them." Shoot him asshole. What's more, Mr. is here, what are you worried about?"

Although the young man's words sounded rough, Deng Chenggong said with relief: "Zhuzi is right, they all carry their heads on one shoulder. What are you afraid of these bandits doing? Don't think these bandits are very vicious, but as long as you They are more ruthless than them, and they are the ones who should be afraid. As long as you are not afraid of bandits, after cleaning up this bandit den, I will teach you a few tricks to shoot guns, and guarantee that those bandits who dare to enter the village will die one by one. Now you Are you still afraid of those bandits?"

Compared with the elderly and children, the character of young people is undoubtedly the easiest to be motivated. Hearing that he can learn Deng Chenggong's gun skills one by one, even the confidence on the faces of the two indifferent young people just now Added some.Of course, Deng Chenggong knew very well in his heart that these people were only temporarily inspired by himself to have some courage.If you want to fight those bandits with real guns, I'm afraid you will end up running away in the end.

On the way forward, Deng Chenggong explained to these young people the basic knowledge of how to shoot, and at the same time told them not to act rashly after they arrived at the stronghold, and he would not come out until he dealt with the bandits who dared to resist.With these words as a foundation, the speed of the group's march has undoubtedly accelerated a lot.Until Liu Ergou, who led the way, said in a low voice that the wooden mountain gate in front was the first line of defense for the bandits. Deng Chenggong immediately told these young people to stay where they were, and pulled out a military dagger. A stream of light disappeared into the bushes in front of the wooden door.

Through this kind of special tactical action that they have never seen before, the young people added a lot of thoughts to learn from Deng Chenggong, and Liu Ergou, who was also lying on the ground, felt even more that he wanted to follow Deng Chenggong instead of Dayang. , is really foresight!
