Spring and Autumn Confucian Heroes

Chapter 36 Slaughter Village
In the remote small village, many villagers were poorly dressed, with yellow and emaciated faces.

"Tap Tap!"

Suddenly, there was a rush of hoofbeats, but ten cavalry came galloping, breaking the peace of the mountain village.

"Shut up!"

The horses stopped together, and the ten cavalry stopped in place, with a hint of evil in their eyes.

An old man in the village had cloudy eyes.

He looked at the cavalry who broke into the village, and a look of fear flashed across his face, but he still bravely went forward.

"Dare to ask the adults, what are your orders when you come to our village?"

The old man is the most famous person in the village, and the villagers came here to avoid taxes, so naturally there is no village chief here.

However, the villagers are very simple in character, and there are very few disputes in ordinary times.

Even if there are some conflicts among the villagers, they will seek out the elders in the village and ask them to help mediate.

In a village without legal constraints, apart from being very poor, it is a bit rare to have such a peaceful life.

The leading knight could not help but sneer when he saw the old man approaching.

"Call all the people in your village!"

The old man was taken aback when he heard the words, and then asked: "Dare to ask this lord, what is the reason for asking the little old man to gather the villagers?"

At this time, the old man also had a faint vigilance in his heart.

Some time ago, he also heard that bandits went to poor mountain villages to kill people for fun, and their methods were very cruel.

The ten cavalrymen in front of them didn't look like officers and soldiers, and their vicious appearance inevitably aroused suspicion.

"Snapped!"

The leading knight swung the whip in his hand directly, and slapped the old man's face fiercely, knocking him to the ground.

"After the order, you just follow it. Why are there so many nonsense?"

The old man was knocked to the ground, with a deep bloodstain on his face, lying on the ground and howling.

"You deceive people too much!"

Although these villagers living in the three-way zone are very poor, they also appear to be very sturdy.

Seeing the old man lying on the ground, several young men burst into anger and were about to come up and fight the cavalry.

"Ahem, stop it!"

At this moment, the old man stood up with difficulty, and shouted at several young people.

Several young people showed great respect for the old man.

They stopped immediately after hearing the words, hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to support the old man.

The cavalry leader looked at everything coldly, his eyes full of disdain.

Enduring the pain, the old man said to the cavalrymen, "My lords, wait a moment. The little old man is going to gather the villagers."

"Hurry up, don't waste my time."

With the support of several young people, the old man walked slowly towards the village.

Walked a distance.

The old man guessed that the knights couldn't hear him, so he whispered to the young man next to him, "Hurry up and tell the villagers to disperse and flee into the mountains."

"If I'm not mistaken, these people are the bandits from the Black Sand Gang, and they came here this time to slaughter the village."

When several young people heard this, their expressions were all horrified.

One person asked in a low voice: "Since you are here to massacre the village, why don't you just come in and call everyone together instead?"

The old man frowned and said: "Stop talking so much nonsense, go and tell everyone to escape."

A few young people didn't dare to neglect, so they dispersed to inform the villagers.

Due to their experience, the young people may not know the sinister intentions of this group of cavalrymen, how could the old man not know?
Although these ten cavalrymen were fully armed, it was not very easy to massacre all the hundreds of people in the village.

It should be noted that the villagers are far more familiar with the village than this group of cavalry.

Moreover, there is a big mountain near the village. If they scattered and fled, even these cavalry would be at a loss.

The most important thing is that the strength of cavalry lies in the unity of man and horse. If they dismount from their horses, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

If you go directly to Tucun, when the villagers hide in the house or hide in other places, this group of cavalry will definitely dismount.

It must be known that there are more than one hundred people in the village, and there are many young and strong people, and the folk customs are tough.

If the cavalry dismounted and wanted to massacre the village, and the villagers resisted desperately when their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, this group of cavalry might not die.

However, as long as the villagers are gathered together, even if the bandits only have ten knights, they can be smashed to pieces.

The old man was well-informed and quickly saw through the vicious intentions of the cavalry commander.

The cavalry leader looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his right hand holding the weapon seemed to be exerting more force.

In fact, he didn't want to come here this time.

Because most of these remote mountain villages are in poor mountains and bad waters, even if you know the location, it is not easy to come here.

For example, this time, on their way here, the horses could not gallop in many places, so they had to walk slowly leading the horses.

And with the expansion of the villages slaughtered by the Black Sand Gang, many villages in poor mountains and rivers have already taken precautions.

Although the bandits of the Black Sand Gang were not afraid of these villagers, they would inevitably suffer casualties during the massacre of the village.

Therefore, the commander of the cavalry came up with such a method.

"Boss, how many people will be left alive this time?"

A knight from the Black Sand Gang came to the commander of the cavalry and asked in a low voice.

The commander of the cavalry replied: "It is enough to keep two strong young men. We must let them spread the word about the reason why we slaughtered the village."

The Heisha gang slaughtered the village, although there were elements of venting anger in it, the biggest purpose was to persecute Huanchang.

If Huan Chang got the news that because of himself, the Black Sand Gang had slaughtered many villages, he would definitely go all out to find trouble with the Black Sand Gang.

As long as Huan Chang leaves the boundary of Pingyang City, relying on the strength of the Black Sand Gang, there will be countless means to make Huan Chang die without a place to bury him.

Moreover, the two heads of the Black Sand Gang have received news that the mysterious female knight just met Huan Chang by chance, and now she has left the country of Lu.

They may not be able to offend that female knight, but they will not let go of Huan Chang, the brat who offended the Black Sand Gang twice.

"what?"

The commander of the cavalry was thinking about something, when he suddenly saw many villagers fleeing in all directions in a panic, holding sticks and weapons.

"Damn it, I was tricked!"

The cavalry commander's face turned blue and red, and he roared loudly: "Come on, kill them all!"

The rest of the knights also came back to their senses. Seeing that these lowly villagers dared to tease themselves, they were immediately furious.

"kill!"

The ten people shouted in unison, and then galloped their horses to catch up.

"drive!"

The cavalry commanded the fastest horse, staring at the faltering old man with a cold glint in his eyes.

"Die!"

He chased after him, brandishing the weapon in his hand, about to cut off the old man's head.

　The old book is finished, and I planned to update it more, but after discussing with the editor, I realized that the update was too much before it was put on the shelves, which is not good for recommendation.In the future, I will follow the editor's suggestion, usually update twice, and update if there is a good recommendation.

　　Of course, after it hits the shelves, this book will definitely explode, and the update speed will be much faster. Brothers, please forgive me.
