Chapter 57 Chase

 Looking at the couple lying in a pool of blood, the bandits didn't care. They even discussed the interesting things before with a playful smile.

At this moment, a bandit ran from a distance.

 “Brother Hei, General Pingwei has caught up with us, just dozens of miles away.”

When everyone heard this, their expressions suddenly changed. Not only did they not talk about the reputation of General Pingwei, they also said that the number of men and horses they brought was several times that of theirs, and they were still strong.

Although they are cruel, they are not fools. They know that head-on confrontation will only lead to death.

"It doesn't matter, I already have a countermeasure!" Brother Hei waved his hand, looking confident.

“Throw their bodies into the carriage, look for other clothes on the carriage, and change the coachman’s clothes with ours!”

The bandits quickly understood what the boss meant, and quickly threw the bodies of Zhang Xuan into the carriage, and then put their own clothes on the carriage.

Afterwards, they were worried that the driver would fall off the carriage, so they tied the driver to the carriage and pretended that the driver was still alive and driving.

 Later, after they had arranged everything, Brother Hei took out a dagger and stabbed it into the horse's butt.

         

The horse screamed in pain and ran forward at such a speed that no shadow could be seen at once, leaving only dust along the way.

 “Clean up the traces and let’s leave!”

After Brother Hei finished speaking, he looked up and saw a black shadow appearing in the sky. He frowned. Is it an eagle or a vulture?

 A moment later, a group of people quickly got into the forest and soon disappeared.

 …

On a hillside dozens of miles away from the bandits, a group of soldiers in armor followed a majestic young man.

 “General!”

“There is a light of fire in Xishan Village. It seems like thieves have entered the village. We haven’t found out yet whether they are the Black Mountain bandits we are chasing!”

 A spy hurried over, knelt down on one knee, and reported the news of his discovery.

The expressions of the people behind General Pingwei suddenly changed. Liu Heiwu was a ruthless man who killed people without batting an eye. He previously occupied Montenegro and became the king, so he was called the Montenegrin thief.

This is not the point. The point is that no one who Liu Heiwu and others encounter will be left alive.

Even, they often broke into villages, burned, killed and looted, no matter men, women, old or young, big or small, no one was spared...

Every villager suffered a lot of inhuman torture before they died, and the whole body was not left. Liu Heiwu and others were ruthless. After killing all the villagers, they also set fire to the village.

It was the abominable behavior of this group of bandits that made Pingwei General Xie Yunshang, who had originally planned to return to Beijing to resume his duties, stop and plan to annihilate this group of bandits.

He had already dispersed his men to suppress the bandits throughout Youzhou. Although some overstepped their authority, the officials in various places in Youzhou were too useless and could not eliminate this group of bandits. So he took matters into his own hands and took matters into his own hands. After all, if he dragged it on, he would suffer. Or the common people.

"No matter what, let's save the villagers first." General Pingwei quickly spoke. If the people who attacked the village were Black Mountain bandits, the villagers would be in more danger.

 So, they must rush over as soon as possible.

“Xu Mao, take a hundred people to Xishan Village to rescue the villagers. If you encounter bandits, they will be killed without mercy.”

"General, what will you do if only ten people are left?" Xu Mao was immediately anxious. How could these few people protect the general's safety? "These bandits are not only arrogant, but also very cunning. I'm worried that they are trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain." .”

 After all, to attack a village openly and openly even though you know there are pursuers behind you is either a lunatic or a lack of brains.

 Although Liu Heiwu and others are madmen, they are not brainless.

"No, even if you encounter Black Mountain bandits, ten people are enough." General Ping Wei waved his hand, "Don't waste time, go over as soon as possible and rescue the villagers."

Xu Mao stopped talking. He knew the general's strength very well. He could really fight one against ten. The other soldiers were not weak either. They were all warriors who had experienced life and death on the battlefield. No matter how powerful these bandits were, they could not The general's opponent.

Xu Mao and a group of people immediately rushed to Xiangxi Mountain Village, while General Pingwei continued to lead other men around to look for clues about the footprints of Liu Heiwu and others.

 “General, there’s a carriage there!”

Some of his subordinates pointed to a carriage driving at a high speed on the official road not far away. The driver driving the carriage was wearing the same clothes as the Black Mountain bandits he had wiped out before.

 “Stop the carriage!”

General Ping Wei's face darkened, "Lin, take the people along the official road to look for clues, and the others will follow me to chase the carriage."

 As he finished speaking, everyone rode their horses and moved separately.

Even though they knew it was just Liu Heiwu's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, they still had to go there because they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts that they could save the people on the carriage.

Yes, they could see that although the carriage driver was wearing bandit clothes, he was not a bandit.

Moreover, how could Liu Heiwu and others escape in a carriage on the official road? It would mean that there is no silver 300 in this place.

If it were other people seeing a carriage driving on the official road, this scene would have been normal, but they had all come from the battlefield and had killed many people, so they knew the difference between the living and the dead very well.

 So, they saw at a glance that the coachman was dead, and the carriage was not added at all, but the horse was running on its own.

Several people quickly caught up with the carriage and intercepted it. When they saw the scene in the carriage, everyone was angry.

 “I can’t spare these hateful bandits!”

 Everyone was filled with indignation and rage.

General Ping Wei's face was gloomy, and he was obviously very angry. "After they are buried, we can pursue Liu Heiwu. We can't let him cause any more killings."

 They just hope that they can quickly eliminate Liu Heiwu before he kills anyone again.

 …

 The exiled team had no idea what was happening dozens of miles away, and everyone was very happy at this time.

 Because we have arrived not far outside Wenxian County.

Although the exiled team will not enter the county town, the government officials have to enter Wenxian County government office to submit documents, so they need to be repaired here.

Having been walking in shackles these days, many people have worn out the skin on their soles and ankles, and their originally plump bodies have lost a lot of weight.

 with the long journey, thirsty, thirsty, and not full to eat, so many people have been exhausted.

 Now that they have a rare opportunity to rest, everyone is naturally very happy.

 Chen Xue and others were also very happy because they could take the opportunity to go to the county town to buy supplies and even hot pot seasonings.

Mr. Chen is very curious about the hot pot that his daughter talks about, but there is no seasoning, so he has never eaten it. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to get the seasoning and experience it.

However, he was penniless and had to ask his daughter for money.

“Dad, didn’t we agree that I should go too?”

Chen Xue said anxiously, she has space and can store a lot of supplies, so she will naturally take this opportunity to make a big purchase.

  However, things went against their expectations, and a sudden event interrupted their plan.
