Escape from famine at the beginning: I use space to raise three cute babies
Chapter 39: The Bandits Are Coming
Erbao and Sanni were lying on the ground writing. When they saw Xiang Jiuling walking over in a hurry, they asked in confusion, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Hurry up and pack our things, we must leave now!"
If you light a fire at night, the bandits will come looking for you as soon as they see the light and smoke, and by then it will be too late to run away.
Wang Cheng and Liu Dashan on the other side immediately informed the village chief of the news that Liu Yao had been brought back, and the village chief hurriedly asked everyone to leave quickly.
While everyone was hurriedly packing up their belongings, Liu Dashan looked up and saw streaks of fire not far away.
This deep mountain and old forest is already sparsely populated, so the sudden appearance of the fire is particularly abrupt, "It's over, the bandits are coming towards us!"
"Quick, quick, everyone, stop dawdling and leave quickly!"
The village chief became anxious upon hearing this, and immediately took the lead in running forward with a large family. The rest of the people immediately became confused and followed in a hurry.
Some people are afraid, but others don't take it seriously, "Wherever there are bandits, I don't even see them. I'm afraid some people are being alarmist!"
Zhao Er is now the only one left. He had been at odds with Liu Dashan before. When he heard what he said, he immediately retorted in a strange manner.
Many followers also realized that Liu Dashan's family was talking, but they didn't even see the shadow of the bandits, and they had some doubts in their hearts.
Liu Dashan's family had already packed up and didn't care about them at all. Seeing that Xiang Jiuling's family was also preparing to leave, they immediately followed them.
"It's up to you. Anyway, I saw a group of people coming this way. Do you want to leave or not?"
Seeing that several families had followed the village chief, the remaining villagers hesitated even more and finally packed up their things.
Seeing that everyone listened to Liu Dashan's rumors, Zhao Er felt dissatisfied, "He said there are people, and if someone comes here, they are not necessarily bandits!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a panicked voice coming from the distance, "Oh no, there are bandits, run away!"
The sounds of fighting and screams rang out one after another. Those who had packed up quickly took their families and ran away. They also discarded the things that were not packed and ran forward as hard as they could.
"Dad, it's bad, there are bandits in front of us, we can't get away!"
The village chief's son who was walking in front immediately turned back. He explored the road ahead, but found that he was surrounded by bandits again, and immediately came back anxiously to report.
"What? What...what can we do?"
It seems that these bandits intend to double-team them and must block them. What should they do?
Upon hearing this, Wen Xi put down Sanni in her arms and handed it to Xiang Jiuling, her eyes flickering, "You and the child stay here, I'll go take a look first!"
Xiang Jiuling quickly hugged Sanni and nodded, "Be careful!"
Wen Xi's figure nimbly shuttled through the mountain forest, and when he looked down from a boulder, he saw a series of torches illuminating the fierce faces.
"There is a large group of bandits guarding the bottom of the mountain. We will definitely not be able to get through!"
The news brought back by Wen Xi made everyone instantly despair. There was a wolf in front and a tiger in the back. They were caught in the middle and would be caught sooner or later. What should they do?
"Now we have no choice but to force our way in!"
Wen Xi made a prompt decision. The bandits at the foot of the mountain were unprepared. They could take advantage of the terrain to catch them off guard. As long as they opened an opening, there was hope of survival. Otherwise, they would have no choice but to be slaughtered when the bandits behind them caught up!
After hesitating, the village chief immediately agreed to Wen Xi's suggestion, leaving the old, weak, women and children behind, and the men followed Wen Xi to the side of the mountain top, where they moved rocks and prepared for battle.
When they heard the screams getting closer and closer, the desperate people could only join in one after another.
"push!"
At Wen Xi's order, the boulders rolled down the mountain. The bandits below the mountain were hit before they could react. Suddenly, there were screams one after another from the bottom of the mountain.
The bandit leader who finally escaped to the side saw his brother who was hit by a huge boulder suddenly rolling down the mountain and immediately shouted, "Back up, back up quickly!"
Originally, they had a sweet dream of catching a turtle in an urn, but they didn't expect that the turtle was not caught, and they suffered heavy losses.
Thinking of this, the bandit leader became more and more angry and immediately counted the remaining brothers to attack the mountain.
"Quick, let the brothers on the other side speed up the process. Let's go up the mountain from here to outflank them and kill them to avenge the brothers!"
Wen Xi had obviously thought of this and immediately arranged for Wang Cheng, "Brother Wang, take a few people to guard the slope where we go down the mountain. I'm afraid they will rush over from there."
Wang Cheng nodded immediately and went with a few villagers.
In fact, many of these bandits were villagers who fled the famine and turned into bandits because they could not survive. Therefore, their fighting ability was not strong. After encountering such a thing, they had already been shaken.
After Wang Cheng and his men made preparations, they found out that some bandits wanted to sneak up the mountain. They immediately followed the same pattern and beat the bandits away, and the screams rang out again.
The bandit leader was very angry after being hit one after another. This was the first time he had a hard nut to crack. Every time he captured the refugees before, he had gone smoothly. He didn't expect that he would be hit so hard this time.
Seeing that his men were afraid to go up the mountain after suffering heavy losses, the bandit leader gritted his teeth and shouted, "Let's retreat first!"
Seeing the bandits fleeing, the villagers suddenly cheered excitedly, "Great, the bandits have escaped. We have beaten the bandits away!"
At this moment, everyone was united and excited.
Looking at the fleeing bandits, Wen Xi couldn't help but smile. For him, this was just a small battle that was not on the table, but it was the first time he felt a strange feeling.
The old, weak, women and children who got the good news couldn't help but shed tears of excitement. They thought it was a fatal situation, but they didn't expect such a reversal. It's great!
While everyone was still cheering excitedly, Wang Cheng suddenly ran over and said, "Oh no, Wen brothers, those bandits are back again."
Everyone who was still immersed in joy couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling. They immediately ran to the top to take a look, and sure enough they saw a large group of bandits running towards them again.
"What...what should I do? Why are they back again?"
The villagers looked at Wen Xi nervously, fear rising in their hearts.
Wen Xi looked at the bandits who were getting closer and closer with cold eyes, but saw that the bandits were not as menacing as before, and looked more embarrassed than when they were beaten away just now, and he seemed to see the identities of those bandits following a group of people.
,Those people... seem to be wearing official uniforms!
"Those people... seem to be being chased by officers and soldiers!"
Wang Cheng's sharp eyes also saw the bandits being chased.
Everyone took a closer look and found that the bandits were being chased by a large group of officers and soldiers. Many bandits who were running slowly were caught up and strangled by the officers and soldiers. The screams kept coming.
Great, the officers and soldiers are here and they are saved!
