After hearing what I said, Hu Zhanshan shook his head. These Dashahe people must not be released, at least not now. Anyway, if there are more than a dozen people detained here, Dashahe will always be a little taboo about what Dashahe does.
Hu Zhanshan has more experience than mine. He said that and I stopped insisting.
"Brother, I'm not as good as you when it comes to kung fu, and you are not as good as me when it comes to the rules of the sand bandits, listen to me, that's right."
I nodded, dispelled the thoughts in my heart, and waited for Mu Jiu to come over, and then discuss it together.
I counted the days and felt that the time was almost up. Mu Jiu would probably arrive in these three or two days. Hu Zhanshan also sent someone to go down the mountain to buy some chicken, duck and fish meat, so as not to be too shabby after Mu Jiu came.
When the things were bought, it was in the middle of the afternoon. Hu Zhanshan chose a piece of mutton and asked someone to stew it. He planned to drink two glasses together in the evening. The meat had just been stewed, and there was a sudden roar from the top of the mountain. I heard it, and the sound was like thunder, but it was a bit different from thunder.
Boom! ! !
At this time, there was another roar. At the same time, the mountain top seemed to be fried, and the cooking room, which was usually used for cooking, was suddenly flattened by something.
"How is this going!?"
"Yes... it's a cannon!" Hu Zhanshan looked out, and when he saw the blasted kitchen room, he was shocked: "It's a cannon!"
The artillery Hu Zhanshan said was not a firecracker for the Chinese New Year, but a cannon for marching battles. This thing was very rare in the big river beach at that time. Ordinary sand bandits, as well as those of the Jianghu family sect, use weapons such as fire guns at best. As for artillery, many people have never seen it before.
"Hurry up!" Hu Zhanshan took me and ran, and ran to the place near the back mountain in one breath.
While we were running, there were constant cannons. Hu Zhanshan said that this type of cannon is not that kind of cannon. Most of it is a small cannon, but for a mountain like Niutoushan, even a small cannon is enough to smooth them.
The sound of the artillery came suddenly. Hu Zhanshan was quick to react. The remaining people reacted slowly. When hiding in Tibet, some people suffered. In the end, the surviving people on the top of the mountain ran to Hu Zhanshan, and a group of people were hiding there. In the low-lying place here, the range of the mountain cannon is limited, so it can't be hit here temporarily.
People can hide, but the houses on the hilltop can't hide. After a burst of intensive artillery sounds, Niutoushan was almost flattened, and all the houses collapsed in a mess.
"Brother Hu! Are these people from Dashahe here to take revenge?" I was surprised. Until then, I didn't know who dragged the mountain cannon to deal with Niutoushan.
"I don't know." Hu Zhanshan looked at the top of the mountain that had become ruins, his face turned ugly.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for the people of Dashahe to have this kind of weapon. Although the sky is high and the emperor is far away, once someone dares to secretly buy a mountain cannon, someone will definitely take care of it.
However, apart from Dashahe, Niutoushan has no other enemies of life and death.
"Is it..." I was suddenly startled, and I suddenly remembered what he told me when I chatted with Mu Jiu.
Mu Jiu said that we have just appointed a warlord here. Maybe we want to stand up and promote our political achievements, so we have spoken in advance and prepared to wipe out the big and small sand bandits entrenched on the river beach.
I didn’t take it seriously, because those
What the officials said, eight out of ten could not be believed, but in this situation, except for those soldiers, who would dare to drag a mountain cannon to attack the mountain
When I told Hu Zhanshan about this, everyone was immediately frightened. As the old saying goes, if the people don't fight against the officials, the sand bandits can't beat the officials no matter how strong they are.
More importantly, if the people on the other side of the Dasha River attacked the mountain, Niutoushan would definitely resist desperately. After all, the grievances of the rivers and lakes, but we met the soldiers who suppressed the bandits, and we didn't even have the chance to fight back.
"Old Hu, what should I do!?"
"Mostly I can't run away!" Someone rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's really not possible, just fight it!"
The artillery stopped, and the soldiers came to kill the bandits, usually at this number, first bombard the mountain with a cannon, and wait for the top of the mountain to be blasted again, and the people behind will attack the mountain.
Sure enough, soon after the sound of the artillery ceased, someone came up to attack the mountain. I bit my head and looked at it, and my head suddenly numb.
It must be officers and soldiers who attacked the mountain, but there were also a few Dashahe people among them, and most of them came to lead the way and act as guides.
Seeing this, I understand that these soldiers are here to suppress the bandits, but they are all the sand bandits who have little power. For people like Dashahe, if you wash your hands with a golden basin on the surface, and then give the leader some money, it's all right.
I very much suspect that these soldiers were deliberately attracted by Dashahe for the sake of public revenge.
However, people have already been so close, and now it is useless to think too much. Seeing the officers and soldiers of these bandits, I felt that there was no need to resist. The other party was armed with live ammunition and used serious guns. The sand bandits with knives and sticks in Niutoushan, no matter how hard their scalps, could not hold the bullets.
The previous shelling had pushed the people on the top of the mountain to the back. When the people attacking the mountain came up, there was almost no resistance. I hurried back. I just hid here. A dozen or twenty people shouted. La's rushed up the mountain road.
Immediately, a leader who looked at about thirty-seven or eighteen years old wore riding boots and walked up. There were about two hundred officers and soldiers attacking the mountain, all under the command of this leader.
This boss is a bit prestigious, with a big beard, a belt obliquely tied around his waist, and a pistol on his back. I think he looks more like a sand bandit than Hu Zhanshan.
"Niutou Mountain!" The bearded glanced at the top of the mountain and shouted loudly: "Your mountains are leveled, and you can survive if you come out and surrender! If you are stubborn, even if I have a bodhisattva heart, I will not be able to save you. !"
Everyone heard the shout of the bearded man in the mountains, but it was impossible for the people from Niutoushan to run out and surrender as soon as the other party shouted.
The beard waited for a while, saw no one replying, frowned and said: "The mountain roads below have been sealed! I can't escape with wings! What else is there to dare!? I don't have the time to spend with you!"
No one responded when he shouted out these words. The beard waved his hand, and the people behind him filed across the mountain, holding up their guns, searching on the top of the mountain.
"When you meet someone who resists, shoot it on the spot!" The beard took off his hat, followed the crowd, and walked slowly, constantly scanning the surroundings.
The top of Niutoushan is not big, but it is not too small. These soldiers are afraid of sand bandits hiding in the dark and shooting cold arrows, so they are also very careful. The most hateful thing is that a few people from Dashahe showed them the way, and in a moment they searched half a mountain, getting closer and closer to us.
.
At this time, a group of people searched for a big house that was bombarded by mountain shells. The dozens of people from Dashahe who had been captured before were all locked in this big house. I didn't care about this big house either. The big house was bombed and more than a dozen people died in it.
"Zhang Guandai!" someone reported loudly: "There are more than a dozen sand bandits here. They were all dead here before they ran away!"
"Dead and wounded, write it down, and keep the corpse!" The bearded man called Zhang Guandai walked towards the big house, and said as he walked: "There are still alive, please give them to Lao Tzu carefully. Search!"
The corpses buried in the ruins of the big house were dragged out one by one. Anyway, it was not Hu Zhanshan who died, and no one felt distressed.
It's just that the soldiers are getting closer and closer, and once they are found here, everyone will have to be made dumplings.
"Brother, you take the people and go down this mountain road first." Hu Zhanshan confessed in a low voice: "When the real search comes here, I will drag it for you."
"How do I go now?" I just think it must be too late to go. The other side attacked the mountain like this, and the mountain road below must be guarded. This is not an ordinary sand bandit, but a soldier with a real sword and a spear.
"Don't go, are you waiting to get caught up here? One can run away and count one!" Hu Zhanshan didn't even dare to move at this moment. Niutoushan's biggest backing was the silver monkey. The small courtyard where the monkey is located has also collapsed in half. What is going on there now is still unknown.
I vaguely felt that at this moment, no one could count on except myself. Escape is definitely not the way out, and it may be more passive.
But what if you don't run away? I can't hide here in a daze, waiting for someone to search for it.
There are about a hundred soldiers on the top of the mountain, and the rest are all guarding at the intersection of the mountain road below. If I fight alone, I am not afraid of them. However, so many people still have guns. But they.
After thinking about it, there is only one last way left to protect myself and so many brothers on Niutou Mountain.
Catch the thief first, catch the king first. With so many people, there is only one strap at the head. As long as we can catch him, the pressure on us will be reduced a lot.
This is definitely not the best way. Grasping the Zhangguan belt will actually cause a lot of trouble. After all, he is a member of the government. However, I can't think of another way, whether it's alive or dead, now I have to fight hard.
I talked to Hu Zhanshan. Hu Zhanshan only thought it was too dangerous. I didn't say anything to him. I walked together and got out of the hiding place with the cat on my waist.
Now that the sky is still dark, the setting sun is slanting the sky. I have lived in Niutou Mountain for so long. The topography of the hill is already well-known. I cling to the tortuous path close to the cliff, sometimes lurking and sometimes stepping forward. Fortunately, However, the attention of those soldiers was on the collapsed house on the top of the hill, and they didn't notice me for the time being.
I quietly came to the place near Zhang Guandai. Zhang Guandai also seemed to be a drunkard. He was instructing people to kill the bandits. He hadn’t forgotten to take two sips, took out a small jug from my arms, and raised my neck to encourage a drunk. Fill your stomach.
This should be my only chance. I took a look, and Zhang Guan was about three or four feet away from me. I had to take advantage of his drinking effort and jump straight over to subdue him in one fell swoop.
