Chapter 1204 The Enemy Comes to the Door
The group rode eastward on horseback.
Halfway through the journey, something happened and all of them, more than a hundred people, were surrounded.
Wu Lazi didn't understand what was happening yet. He thought he was being robbed by mountain bandits. He rolled up his sleeves and cursed, "Damn it! I haven't even washed this layer of skin off yet, and I'm being targeted by my peers. Hey, which mountain are you from?"
The person on the other side said coldly: "The King of Hell wants you dead!"
Wu Lazi: "...Damn it, did she meet someone who wanted to rob her?"
Zhou Guo looked at the dense crowd around him and roughly counted them. There were at least 500 of them. One against five, it would be a tough battle today. He sighed, "The young man's mouth is really like a blessing. Everything he says works."
Wu Lazi frowned. She felt a cold murderous aura from these people. There was no room for maneuver. It was obvious that they were not here to rob money.
He couldn't help but ask Zhou Guo, "Sir, are these people here for you?"
Zhou Guo nodded.
Wu Lazi was puzzled, "But why? Who did you offend?"
Zhou Guo sighed, "I have been so active in the past few months that we have destroyed almost 80% of the wealthy families in Huguang. Of these 80%, there must be some remnants left. If these people unite, they will naturally come to seek revenge."
She said it lightly, not caring at all. Her family was destroyed, so she came to take revenge.
Wu Lazi said, "That's right. You have executed so many people. The most vicious ones were beheaded. If I were them, I would not let you go even if you killed my family members."
Zhou Guo took the knife from Xiaoshu and said to Wu Lazi kindly, "My boss Wu, don't be stupid at this time. You are on my side. Even if they are not looking for you, we are on the same boat now. They will not let you go. Pick up your hammer."
Boss Wu quickly raised the hammer and said, "That's right. In the eyes of these people, she and Zhou Guo are one at this time."
Before Zhou Guo could finish his words, the people on the other side rushed over with all kinds of weapons in their hands, without fear, and determined to fight to the death.
The one hundred personal soldiers who were protecting him immediately rushed forward, and one of them even took out a flag from somewhere, which was fluttering in the wind.
Zhou Guo glanced subconsciously and saw a big "Guo" written on it. The corner of his mouth twitched. Why did other people's banners have their own surnames, such as Xu, Mo, and Zhou, but hers had to be "Guo"?
It doesn’t sound grand at all when you read it: General Guo.
Listen, what's this name?
Wu Lazi gripped his weapon tightly, nervously ready to charge forward at any time, but he saw the more than one hundred personal soldiers in front of him rushing in and out of the crowd of five hundred people, going east and west, and soon, they surrounded all the hundreds of people.
He was dazzled by the sight and could not help but stare in amazement, "Master, what kind of skills are these people using? They really work!"
It would be great if their brothers could also master this skill. They wouldn’t be afraid of enemies that are ten times bigger than themselves.
Zhou Guo was so excited when he saw this that he had no time to answer Wu Lazi's words. This formation was great. It would be extremely powerful if used on the battlefield.
Dashu, Xiaoshu and the personal guards around them had no chance to fight back, and the battle was over.
There are more than 500 and about ten left.
They were surrounded and had their weapons taken away.
Zhou Guo rode up to them and asked, "Who are you from? Do you know who I am?"
After asking twice, one of them finally raised his head, stared at her fiercely and said, "We will recognize you even if you turn into ashes. It is you who caused our family to be broken up and destroyed the foundation of our Yuan family that has lasted for hundreds of years!"
And he threatened, "If you have the guts today, kill me. Otherwise, from now on, I will follow you wherever you go. One day, I will let you have a taste of this. You and your whole family will die in my hands, and I will avenge our Yuan family!"
The others raised their heads and looked at her unkindly.
Zhou Guo sneered, "Then I'll fulfill your wish and send you down to reunite with your family!"
He turned his horse's head and spoke, uttering a few cold words, "Leave no one behind."
In the instant the knife fell, none of the more than 500 people survived.
Wu Lazi's face was pale. Although she was the boss and had been a bandit for so many years, the lives she had taken could be counted on one hand, including her husband's life, and many of them were taken out of necessity.
She had never experienced a scene like this where hundreds of people were killed at once.
The people who were clearly alive just now were now lying on the ground, turning into cold corpses.
The nose was filled with the smell of blood, which was somewhat nauseating.
Since these people are dead, we have to dig a hole to bury them. This is a main road, otherwise no one will dare to walk here in the future.
Everyone is very experienced in this area. They have all come from the battlefield and are very good at this.
Zhou Guo looked at Wu Lazi who had been silent for a long time and did not say anything either. Although she was sometimes soft-hearted, she had learned not to cause trouble for herself over the years.
For a trouble like this that she knew about, she didn't mind getting rid of one if she saw one, or a pair if she saw two. It was much better than staying.
The weather during the Greater and Lesser Heat periods was already very calm, so what did it matter? After all, they had been on the battlefield for a while. In the most dangerous battle, Zhou Guo almost died. They were covered in blood.
If I had been even slightly lenient towards the enemy at that time, I wouldn’t be standing here now.
After the scene was cleaned up, the remaining people continued to move forward.
Xu Sibei was generous. Among the more than one hundred people, only a dozen were slightly injured, and the others were fine. The combat effectiveness of this team is really not to be underestimated.
She decided to pay these people three months' salary this month.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the personal soldiers were delighted. This was three months' salary. You have to know that they were personal soldiers, picked from hundreds of thousands, and their monthly salary was already quite high. For three months, it was considered a small fortune.
Wu Lazi, who was standing by, envied him. Her face turned pale, her heart stopped panicking, and her hands stopped shaking. She asked, "Sir, what about me? What about me? Do I have any?"
Her salary was high; in three months, she could buy a small courtyard in the county town, which was enough to set up a bright school for her children.
Zhou Guo looked at him for a few times, and saw that she had changed her previous expression, her eyes were shining, and she looked more like she was asking for New Year's money. He said, "You come alive when it comes to money. Are you not afraid anymore?"
Wu Lazi shook her head, "I'm not afraid. I'm a bandit, what do I have to fear? I think what you did is absolutely right. People who are so stubborn should not be allowed to stay, or they will have to live in fear in the future. It's better to die and put an end to everything."
Being a bandit, or the leader of a bandit, is not an easy job. Although Wu Lazi cannot remain calm like Zhou Guo, he has the heart to be ruthless and will not hold back when necessary. Otherwise, how can he manage such a large village?
