Gou is a soldier on the border

Chapter 88
Walking into the back hall of the county government office, Hood had already prepared a table of very sumptuous dishes.

He was accompanied by officials of all sizes in Xingyang County.

As the chief official of a county, Hood is only a seventh-rank official, and the officials under him are even less popular.

Don't say that Wang Luo is now a sixth-rank military general, Wang Wei's rank is even higher. .

Therefore, the two of them were undoubtedly placed in the main seat, with Hood accompanying them.

"Why didn't the other two generals come?" Hood asked after arranging everyone to sit down.

"There must always be two managers in the camp of a thousand people, so the two of them stay in the camp, and General Wang and I will come." Wang Wei replied casually.

"It's the lower official's negligence." Hood quickly apologized.

Then, a maid poured wine for everyone.

"This is a maid specially invited from the largest restaurant in the county." Hood pointed out.

Wang Wei chuckled.

"Magistrate Hu, we didn't come to Xingyang to drink, so let's quickly introduce the situation of that gangster." Because of what happened in the camp in the afternoon, Wang Wei obviously didn't have a good impression of Hu De, so he directly Said to Hood straight to the point.

Hearing Wang Wei's question about the thief, Hu De let out a long sigh, and the others also lowered their heads.

"General Wang, it's a long story." Hood shook his head, and began to talk about the ins and outs of this banditry.

Three months ago, a group of refugees came to Xingyang County.

They found Hood and asked to exchange the treasures they carried for food and other materials.

When Hood saw that the offer was very high, he agreed.

But this group of people did not work, and sat and ate under the sky, and the treasures they brought were slowly used up.

When they could no longer offer anything to exchange, Hood refused their request for credit without hesitation.

Seeing that the business could not be done, the desperate refugees directly robbed them.

Hood just woke up like a dream. People who are not of our race must have a different heart, and hurriedly reported it to the court.

"I'm also obsessed with ghosts, and I took bribes from it. Who knows this group of people..."

After listening to Hood's narration, Wang Luo and Wang Wei looked at each other and nodded.

"Magistrate Hu, what you did right or wrong is up to the court to judge. Our purpose of coming here is to suppress bandits, so let's report these things after the imperial envoy from the court arrives. Since it's just a group of refugees, tomorrow morning we will Let’s go, let’s talk about the rest when we come back.”

Hood nodded.

"Yes, yes, we were the ones who did it, but the people are innocent. Please ask the two generals to lead an army to bulldoze their stronghold to avenge the tragic death of the people."

Sitting at the head of Wang Luo is the county captain of Xingyang County.

This county lieutenant had the same surname as Hu De, and Wang Luo chatted with him casually on the road.

"Lieutenant Hu, how many arrests are there in Xingyang County?"

"Back to General, there are thirty arrests in Xingyang County."

"Thirty? Are you busy?"

"There are only more than 1 people in Xingyang County. In fact, most of the disputes are resolved by the township government. We are responsible for some serious matters."

"Did you make a move when the group of thieves came?"

"No..." Hu Xianwei hesitated, and finally continued, "The bandits robbed a small village at the foot of the mountain. We only received the news two days later."

"Where are the villagers in the village?"

"..." County Captain Hu said nothing.

Wang Luo narrowed his eyes, his face full of cruelty.

"These beasts."

Wang Luo and Wang Wei didn't bother to sit here and eat anymore, and the banquet ended in a hurry.

As soon as he walked out of the city gate, Wang Wei said to Wang Luo, "Wang Luo, what do you think about this?"

Wang Luo moved forward silently, and answered after a while: "Second brother, there are many doubts about this matter. Let's talk about it when we arrive at the place where the thief is tomorrow. But I always feel that Hood is not telling the truth, or Tell me what you're hiding."

Early the next morning, the army set off directly, and under the leadership of Lieutenant Hu Xianwei, marched towards the location of the thief.

In the afternoon, they came to the foot of the mountain where the thief was.

Wang Luo looked up and saw that the terrain of this mountain was extremely dangerous, and there was only one path to go up the mountain.

"Second brother, let's set up camp first, let's take people up the mountain to have a look first."

Wang Wei nodded.

They took He Lao Liu, Lao San, Xiao Lang and Daniu off their horses and walked up the mountain, while the rest camped in place to rest.

He Laoliu and Wang Wei opened the way ahead. They avoided the path up the mountain and walked up the mountain from another direction.

As soon as he arrived halfway up the mountain, Wang Wei suddenly waved the machete in his hand, and only heard a "ding", and an arrow fell to the ground.

There was a rustling sound in the distant jungle.

"Chase!" Wang Wei gave an order, and the six people immediately accelerated and chased forward.

After a short chase, the front suddenly became clear.

A camp appeared before them.

The walls of the stronghold are already full of archers.

"Fire the arrows!" Hearing a shout from the wall of the village, the archer let go of the bowstring without hesitation.

But among these six people, apart from Daniel, which one is not a top soldier king who has experienced many battles in the Northern Wilderness.

They waved the weapons in their hands and easily blocked all the bows and arrows that were shot.

Immediately afterwards, everyone except Daniu raised their hands at the same time, and shot back at the wall with crossbows.

But Wang Wei was more straightforward. After shooting an arrow, he directly held the machete in his hand and went forward to kill.

"Daniu, you and Little Wolf go back and call for reinforcements, Sixth Brother, let's follow Second Brother to kill."

To deal with a group of refugees, with Wang Wei and Wang Luo's strength, it is really a sledgehammer.

Wang Wei directly stepped on the wall of the village, a flash of knife light flashed, and a scream came from the wall of the village.

Remnants of limbs and broken arms flew all over the sky, patches of blood flashed, and an open space was cleared around Wang Wei.

Wang Luo was the second to climb up the wall of the village, and Wang Wei went left and right to kill on both sides.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Luo's eyes narrowed, and in the village, groups of soldiers wearing standard armor and holding spears and shields rushed towards the gate of the village.

"Second brother, this is not an ordinary refugee, this is the army."

Wang Wei nodded solemnly, and wiped away the blood on his face.

The archers on the wall of the stronghold had retreated, joined the reinforcements, and headed towards them again.

The pressure Wang Luo and the others faced suddenly increased. Although there was an absolute gap in force, the cooperation on the other side was obviously a regular army that had been on the battlefield. Arrows come.

And the cooperation on the opposite side was very methodical, and they didn't take it lightly just because there were only four of them.

The shield soldiers rushed to the front, the spearmen stabbed forward from the gaps in the shields, and the archers climbed up the watchtower behind to aim at them and shoot.

Wang Wei's two consecutive attacks were blocked by the opponent's shield. He used a machete that was not very smooth, and he was under the control of others everywhere.

Wang Wei, who was finally annoyed, let out a loud roar, stepped on the large formation formed by shields and jumped into the air, blocked the spears poking up from below with his knife, and at the same time jumped into the formation of spearmen with his strength.
