Chapter 9

The next day, after breakfast, the army saw that there was still no movement on the mountain. Li Dingguo first sent someone up to shout. Seeing that the other party was still stubborn and no longer wordy, he directly set out in formation.

Qin Huan took a lot of effort with the boy to lift the cannon halfway up the mountain and beat the drums for a while before he was ready.

"Big... Big masters, isn't it the cannon that these anti thieves just carried up?"

"Hiss! This... They have cannons... "

The bandits on the wall of the stronghold were shocked when they looked at Qin Huan and others who were making drums not far away.

"Fuck you, that's a piece of wood. Are you blind? Dare to shake the morale of the army again and kill without amnesty! "

Wang Wubang, the leader of niutouzhai, drank a drink and stopped the rioting crowd, but he only played drums in his heart.

Everyone didn't speak, but they were scolding in their hearts. You're blind. The dark pipe is not a cannon. What ghost can it be?

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, there was a puff of smoke on the hillside, accompanied by a sound of breaking the air.

All the bandits were shocked and fled one after another. Some with sharp eyes even saw a black spot flying over their heads and smashing into the rear room.

"Big masters, they really have cannons."

"I'm afraid of an egg. Just a broken gun has a fart. Ask the brothers to resist!"

……

"High, a little lower." Qin Huan on the hillside built a shed with his hands and shouted at the boy.

The hundred and ten heroes who were ready to attack were waving their weapons and howling to cheer, not to mention the young people at the foot of the mountain.

"Fire!"

Seeing that the adjustment was almost done, Qin Huan looked at the wooden gate for a while, and then hid behind a big stone and gave orders.

The rest of the youths were the same, leaving only one man holding a torch and trembling to light the fire. Qin Huan was also afraid of heavy losses after blasting the chamber.

"Boom!"

There was another loud noise, and an iron pill with a child's fist hit five or six feet in front of the wooden door.

"Damn it!"

Qin Huan scolded and hurried to the cannon to play with it again.

In this way, with a distance of only about 100 meters, more than 100 heroes waited impatiently before opening.

A small hole was made in the stronghold gate, which made the bandits nervous again.

Boom! Boom! Boom

Then Qin Huan seemed to feel it. He fired more than ten shots in a row. Wood chips flew around the wall of the stronghold until there was a scream. He nodded at Li Dingguo.

"Kill me!"

With the order of Li Dingguo, a hundred heroes rushed to the stronghold gate, all of them young and strong.

"Come on..."

On the wall of the stronghold, Wang Wu was also flustered when he saw the other party rushing up with a shield and a ladder. He shouted quickly, but he saw that his men were more flustered than him.

At this time, Qin Huan began to fire air guns.

The charging hero listened to the gunfire and was in great spirits. He rushed under the wall, put a ladder on the top of the wall and began to climb up.

"Kill me!"

Li Dingguo also rushed up with 50 confidants in cotton armor, followed by hundreds of young people shouting behind him.

"Smash me!"

"Ah!"

"Oh..."

For a time, screams and wails continued, and the bandits threw down all the prepared wood and thunder stones.

"Rush!"

Qin Huan pulled out the short knife tied around his waist, pointed forward, and took 60 teenagers with wooden sticks to divide the spoils.

Because the bandits on the wall have begun to escape, and the broken wooden door has been knocked down by several big men, the rebels rushed into the stronghold.

Seeing that the situation was gone, Wang Wu shouted and broke his throat. The brothers ignored themselves, so they had to take several confidants and run back.

Li Dingguo took people into the stronghold and only killed more than a dozen bandits. The remaining bandits knelt down and surrendered.

When Qin Huan came to the stronghold playground, the battle was over and the bandits knelt on the ground.

"Who is Wang Wu?"

Li Dingguo pointed to more than 100 bandits kneeling on the ground with a waist knife and shouted loudly.

All the bandits were startled and looked at a man of about 30 years old with beards in the middle.

"The major general spared his life. I would like to take refuge in your army..."

"Hum! I have killed five brothers and wounded nine. Use your head to sacrifice them. "

Li Dingguo said, waved a knife, and a good head fell to the ground. Fresh blood splashed all over the faces of the surrounding bandits.

Qin Huan just saw this scene and shivered all over. He secretly said that Li Dingguo was very cruel, and the teenagers were also pale with fear.

"Go, cut off the heads of the dead bandits. Cut one for each person. If it's not enough, cut off your legs and hands."

Qin Huan handed the knife and said to the teenagers.

The teenagers took the knife and went to complete the task assigned by leader Qin.

The bandits on their knees heard that the timid ones had fainted, but the bold ones scolded in their hearts. They were really more cruel one by one, and the smaller they were, the more ferocious they were.

In only half an hour, the stronghold was cleaned up, and Qin Huan counted the seizure.

Ninety bags of grain, about 10000 Jin, are full of rice, more than 2000 liang of gold and silver, as well as some gold and silver jewelry and ten pieces of cotton cloth.

Five pairs of bows and arrows, twenty waist knives, fifteen spears, and some miscellaneous weapons.

"Brother Dingguo, the waist knife, bow and arrow and spear belong to you. I'll take those miscellaneous weapons. How about the gold, silver, grain and cloth according to the original three or seven?"

"No problem, but these gold and silver jewelry can't be divided randomly."

"Oh! Why? " Qin Huan was worried. Did Li Dingguo see money and want to swallow it alone?

"Brother Qin, don't get me wrong. Most of these gold, silver and jewelry should be handed over to the adoptive father, and some of the grain should also be handed over." Li Dingguo quickly explained.

"What? This also needs to be handed in? " Qin Huan immediately jumped up, but he was relieved to think about it.

Then they began to pack up. Li Dingguo planned to take all the more than 100 bandits captured, and the more than 20 women kidnapped by the bandits were rewarded to their meritorious brothers.

Qin Huan looked at more than twenty women who had been ruined by bandits. He wanted Li Dingguo to give them some money and food, but he thought about it so as not to embarrass him.

"Brother Qin, do you want to choose two of these women?"

Qin Huan waved his hand with a dry smile: "Oh, let's forget it. They are all poor people. They must be from the nearby village. They are also poor like us."

"Well! I'll tell them so that the brothers don't treat them badly in the future. "

Li Dingguo nodded.

I walked for a whole day when I came back. Although I had many more things, I was much faster than when I came back. Obviously, I was in a good mood after winning the war.

We set out at noon and arrived at Gucheng in the evening. Young people, each of them had a head, or arms and thighs tied around his waist. Qin Huan even clenched his teeth and tied a head to strengthen his courage.
