Chapter 42 Liu Xicai: I was careless!

Although the courtyard was in a remote location, the screams when the Zhang family and their servants and maids were being slaughtered and humiliated outside were so loud that these archers naturally heard them.

Almost everyone felt a sense of crisis and began to think of ways to untie each other.

But the red lady's tie was relatively strong, and there were no sharp things in the yard, so the rope couldn't be untied for a while.

"The red lady has tied up all the archers from the Inspection Department in this courtyard!"

A man's voice came from outside, making all the archers' hearts skip a beat and panic.

Unfortunately, their arms were tied behind their backs, their legs were tied, and their mouths were blocked. Even if they panicked, they could only squirm on the ground like a group of insects.

squeak--

The courtyard door was pushed open.

Gan Yaozu broke in with five men.

Several people had a lot of blood splattered on their faces and bodies, and the blood on their waist knives was still dripping down, like evil ghosts coming out of hell.

The archers became even more uneasy when they saw the appearance of these people.

One person asked Gan Yaozu, "Has the boss said what to do with these archers?"

"I didn't say it." Ancestor Gan Yao shook his head, and then sneered: "But the boss said, if you enter the Zhang family mansion, kill everyone you see, and leave no chickens or dogs behind!"

After saying that, he walked towards the archer closest to him with a knife.

"Wow!"

This archer is a very strong man, his name is Zhang Ao, and he is a member of Zhang Debiao's clan who came out of the fifth service.Seeing Gan Yaozu approaching, he could do nothing but scream and squirm backwards.

Gan Yaozu didn't waste any time and stabbed Zhang Ao in the chest with his knife.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand, a crossbow arrow flew out and shot into his neck.

Immediately, Liu Xicai's very capable spy stared and fell down unwillingly.

"who!"

The remaining five people subconsciously shouted loudly, and then retreated outside the courtyard gate.

However, crossbow arrows were fired one after another, and all five people were hit. Two of them were hit in the vital organs and died on the spot.

The other three were injured. As soon as they evacuated the courtyard, Liu Sheng jumped off the courtyard wall. Using his positioning and grappling skills, he quickly removed the arms of all three of them.

Then Liu Sheng cut off the clothes of the three men, blocked their mouths, and threw them into the yard one by one.

Then he walked in calmly and locked the door behind him.

The archers lying all over the yard looked at him with wide eyes.

"Don't look at it. These are Liu Xicai's men and they want to destroy the entire Zhang family. If it weren't for me, you would all die in this courtyard."

Hearing Liu Sheng's words, there was a sudden whimpering in the yard, and he didn't know whether it was to thank him or to ask for help.

Liu Sheng pulled the cloth off Zhang Ao's mouth.

"Thank you hero for saving your life..."

"Stop!" Liu Sheng didn't like these archers who were helping the tyrants, and he didn't want to waste more time on them. He directly interrupted the archers and said, "Let me ask you an answer. Don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, I can kill him." you."

Zhang Ao was still a little grateful, and was really frightened by Liu Sheng's ability to easily deal with six people, so he cooperated and said: "Excuse me."

"Who has the highest position here?"

"The captain has run away. The one with the highest position among us is someone like me."

"There are some special ones here, point them out." As he spoke, Liu Sheng used a dagger to cut the rope that bound Zhang Ao.

After Zhang Ao was untied, he was quite honest. He found five people among the archers and said, "The only ones left are the six of us."

"Six people are just right," Liu Sheng smiled, "Come on, divide these three Liu Xicai's men and stab them each. If they are not dead after stabbing them, I will kill you."

After hearing this, the other archer commanders were still hesitating, but Zhang Ao immediately picked up a knife, stepped forward and pierced one of them in the heart.

The man woke up from the pain, vomited blood at the mouth, and died with his eyes wide open in the blink of an eye.

The archers already hated Liu Xicai's men because of what happened before. At this time, they were forced by Liu Sheng and Zhang Ao set an example. The remaining five archers no longer hesitated and each stepped forward and stabbed them. Three of Liu Xicai's men were completely dead.

Liu Sheng nodded with satisfaction, "There are still forty or fifty Liu Xicai's people in the mansion who are killing, looting, and raping women. You all know the orders Liu Xicai gave them.

As for Liu Xicai himself, he was hiding in the money merchant Fan's house before, and he should soon lead a large army to chase the red lady.

That's all I can tell you. What you're going to do next, whether you live or die, depends on your choice. "

After saying that, Liu Sheng opened the courtyard door and left.

The six chiefs looked at each other. "What should we do?" one of the chiefs asked.

Zhang Ao said: "We and the archers here are either members of the Zhang family or tenants of the Zhang family. Can Liu Xicai let us go if he destroys the Zhang family?"

What's more, those people just said that Liu Xicai wanted to rid the Zhang family mansion of chickens and dogs. It was obvious that he wanted to kill people and silence them.

Even if we escape now, we will be hunted down and suppressed by Liu Xicai and the Fan family in the future. "

"Brother Zhang San, just tell me what to do." A senior official who was closest to Zhang Ao said.

Zhang Ao said to this man: "Li Niu, you first climb over the wall and leave the mansion, contact those brothers from the inspection department who have escaped, and tell them that Liu Xicai is going to kill everyone in the inspection department. Those who don't want to die should come to Zhang's house." Come gather at the mansion."

"it is good!"

Li Niu nodded, then climbed over the wall and left.

This courtyard is right next to the mansion, and you can leave by climbing two courtyard walls.

Zhang Ao then led the remaining men to cut the ropes and loosen them for the other archers.

Only half of the people were loosened when several people came over with swords. They saw the situation inside through the courtyard door and immediately shouted: "Damn it, there are a lot of archers here!"

Run when you're done.

Someone wanted to chase, but Zhang Ao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't chase, let's find someone who can take advantage of us first, otherwise we will start a fight soon, and our six knives will not be enough."

So some of the archers broke the doors and windows in the courtyard, went into the house, dismantled tables, chairs and other furniture, and chopped wood into soldiers.

Another part of the archers went to other yards to look for brooms, hatchets and other things that could be used as weapons.

Although the people who discovered the archers were shouting all the way, Liu Xicai's people gathered unhappily because many people were having fun in the house with the female family members and maids of the Zhang family.

When twenty or thirty of these people gathered to find trouble with the archers, Zhang Ao and others had already found a lot of weapons.

When the two sides saw each other, they were extremely jealous and started killing each other...
The Fan family mansion.

The old man Liu Xicai was sitting there, drinking tea and chatting with Fan Yongcheng about several red-brand girls in Minggang brothels.

After chatting for a while, Fan Yongcheng expressed his admiration and said: "Mr. Liu is so calm and relaxed, he really has the style of a famous general in ancient times."

"Hahaha," Liu Xicai thought this flattery was very good and laughed happily, "Fan Dong's family deserves to be from a big family, and they speak well."

There was killing outside, but the two of them were exchanging business blows here.

Fan Yongcheng wanted to brag about Liu Xicai again, but he saw someone coming in hurriedly, but he was a sentry who went to monitor the Red Lady's team.

"Master, something is not good. Lady Hong and the others left Nanjiekou and went straight to the Refugee Valley!"

"What?" Liu Xicai stood up, frowned and asked, "Are you sure they went to the Refugee Valley?"

The spy said: "The Refugee Valley is southeast of Nanjiekou. That's where they went. They have already traveled two or three miles."

"Damn it!" Liu Xicai slammed the table angrily, "I was careless! I didn't expect that stinky bitch to steal the food and not leave, but to cause big trouble!"

After that, he hurried out to gather troops.

Fan Yongcheng also looked ugly at this time.

As the second largest household in Minggang Town and secretly colluding with Liu Xicai, he certainly knew about the Refugee Valley.

There are probably thousands of refugees still alive there, and they all probably hate Minggang Town.

If the Red Lady takes these refugees hostage, she will not only be able to stop Liu Xicai's pursuit, but she may even attack Minggang Town!
It should be noted that the archers of the Minggang Town Inspection Department are now dispersed, but there is no one to protect them.

As for Liu Xicai, if a critical moment comes, he will definitely abandon Minggang Town - after all, his duty is to garrison the Chu King's City, not Minggang.

Thinking of this, Fan Yongcheng became anxious and hurriedly called two housekeepers.

"Second housekeeper, go quickly and summon the guards and male servants at home to distribute weapons and crossbows.

Butler, please contact the heads of the five major households, Wang, Cao, Dou, Jin, and Jiang, and tell them that the bandits are going to kidnap the refugees and loot Minggang, and ask them to quickly gather the nursing homes and tenants to prepare to protect the town. "

The two butlers responded and went to do their work.

Fan Yongcheng was still restless, but he felt relieved when he saw that Liu Xicai had gathered more than 300 officers and soldiers and rushed out of the Fan family mansion.

But it was said that Liu Xicai and his officers and soldiers ran to Nanjiekou and were overtaken by someone from behind.

This person was one of the dozens of people sent to the Zhang family mansion before. He was covered in blood and looked quite embarrassed.

When he saw Liu Xicai, he knelt down and said anxiously: "Master, more than 100 archers appeared in the Zhang family mansion and started fighting with us.

We have few people and can't defeat them. Most of the brothers are still trapped in the inner house. Please send troops to support quickly! "

　Thank you [Bewitching Heart] for the 100 starting point reward!
