This hero will strike

Chapter 190 Heading to Ning'an City

In fact, even if Zhuo Qingyi didn't say these words, everyone knew in their hearts that this scrap of paper came a little strangely.

How can a green forest hero who is normally robbing the bodyguards warn the bodyguards in advance?The idea should be to lay an ambush in order to minimize casualties and maximize benefits.

"How about this, let's divide the troops into two groups. I, Brother Jin, Brother Zhu, Brother Ma, and Brother Luo are on the front with the escort chariot. Yu Sanniang and Miss Zhuo are on the dark side, and we can support each other."

Li Yu deliberated and came up with a solution.

"I think it's okay. In this way, even if there is real danger ahead, we won't be defenseless." Jin Qingyan, the wine seller, immediately agreed.

In fact, this method is also to prevent the opponent from having too many troops and enclosing them all at once, and there will be no foreign aid.

The troops can be divided into two groups, one is light and the other is dark. It is obvious that there will be foreign aid, and mutual assistance from inside and outside.

"Then you and the escort car will be behind, and Ms. Zhuo and I will go first, so that even if we encounter danger early, we can retreat."

Tailor Yu Sanniang pondered for a while, and suggested.

"This time, I agree with Sanniang's proposal. It's really not easy to retreat with the escort car." The scholar Luo Qingshu echoed.

Jin Qingyan and others also nodded.

In fact, Li Yu also agreed with this.

Divide the troops into two groups, one light and one dark, one in front and one in back.

Even if the other party really arranged a team, Zhuo Qingyi and the others must be the first to discover it.

If the escort cart directly bumped into it, it would be very difficult to retreat given the bulkiness of the escort cart.

Even if Li Yu's arm strength is amazing, he can lift one escort cart with one hand, at most he can take away two escort carts at the same time, but Jin Qingyan and the others don't have this arm strength.

"Okay, that's it, you have to be careful!"

Li Yu finally confirmed the plan and exhorted.

Zhuo Qingyi and Yu Sanniang obviously agreed with this approach, and immediately carried their weapons, got on their horses, and left the city gate first.

After the two of them left, there was about half a stick of incense before Li Yu and the others patted their horses forward, escorting five cumbersome bodyguard chariots, passed through the gate of Beicheng, and left Huafengcheng County.

On the official road, the road is not narrow, because it has been sunny for several days in a row, and there is no mud on the road, so the escort car travels quite smoothly.

After leaving Huafeng County, go further north, and the next county is Ning'an City.

Ning'an City is a major city within Mizhou Prefecture, with a population of more than 20. It is much more prosperous than Huafeng County.Similarly, in the vicinity of Ning'an City, bandits and bandits are also extremely rampant, often intercepting wealthy businessmen and even government officials.

"Everyone cheer up!"

Li Yu rode on the Dawan horse, with his back straight and concentrated, always alert to the surrounding woods.

"Yes, Deputy Chief Escort!"

The wine dealer Jin Qingyan and others, while guarding the escort vehicle, also kept an eye on the surrounding dense forest.

In the dense forest, if there are people ambushed, shoot them directly with bows and arrows from a long distance, even if they can escape, the escort car will be destroyed.

"It's been more than ten miles away from the county seat, and there is really no one else in the road ahead, and there is no government post."

Li Yu secretly muttered in his heart.

In the Dayan court, official post stations were set up between county towns to ensure the rapid exchange of official documents.Moreover, in each post station, there will be a chief officer named Yicheng, and there will also be a team of ten officers and soldiers under him.In the road section with post stations, ordinary robbers and bandits seldom come forward to commit crimes.

Once it is discovered, the post station will send out the case, and the nearby county will send officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress it.

The Dayan court's policy towards robbers and gangsters is very strict.

Usually when officers and soldiers are sent to encircle and suppress bandits, they don't care if they are shot or killed, and the money is directly collected.The collected money is directly used as the military salary of the county without being turned over to the imperial court. Of course, it is necessary to report it.

"Be careful, since there are dead bodies, the thieves in this area will definitely commit crimes."

After walking another distance, Li Yu's eyelids twitched slightly, but he saw a male corpse hidden in the grass by the side of the road.

The head of the corpse was split open, the brains had rotted, and the flesh on the body had also begun to rot, giving off a foul smell, and there were flies and mosquitoes buzzing and hovering on it.

Everyone quickened their pace and left this section of the road.

"It's so cruel. Three corpses appeared in a row. It seems that it was three or four days ago."

"The county is prosperous, and there are naturally many thieves and bandits nearby. Where there is fat and water, there will be this group of people."

While discussing, everyone speeded up the escort car.

"stop!"

Suddenly, Li Yu, who was riding a Dawan horse at the forefront, raised his right hand high and stopped the entire bodyguard team.

"..."

Jin Qingyan, the wine dealer, and the others were also in the positions of the escort car, and stood up to look forward.

Beside the road, there were two corpses that had just died, with blood coming out of the wounds.

call!
Li Yu got off his horse and stretched out his hand to wipe the skin on the corpse. There was still a slight body temperature. Obviously, this was the characteristic of a corpse that had just been killed less than an hour ago.

"What do you think?"

Li Yu frowned, looked at the corpse and asked.

"Looking at the clothes, the two corpses are from Lianjiazi, but the wounds are very narrow, so they were definitely not killed by Miss Sanniang and Miss Zhuo." Jin Qingyan, the wine seller, inspected the corpses first, and then came to a conclusion.

"That's right, these two corpses should be the bodyguards of a wealthy businessman, and they are all warriors in the inner realm, but you see, the iron shields next to them have been cut off at one corner, and the opponents should use sharp weapons, and The inner strength must be deep enough." Li Yu nodded and added.

The two circular iron shields scattered beside the corpse had been cut off in one section, and the middle of the other was pierced.

The iron shield is two to three centimeters thick. Even in this era, with average cast iron technology, it is difficult for an ordinary martial artist with perfect inner training to pierce such a thick iron shield even with a sword in hand.

"Everyone be careful, there are masters."

Li Yu stood up and solemnly reminded.

Judging from the other party's skills, Jin Qingyan, the wine seller, and the others are probably not the enemy of this person.

Except for himself, no one else is this person's opponent.

Li Yu rode on the Dawan horse, and everyone simply buried the body before going on the road again.

This time, on the way, no one was in the mood to chat.

Even Luo Qingshu, a talented scholar who usually talks a lot, has a calm face, and there is a faint worry in his eyes.

You must know that Zhuo Qingyi and Yu Sanniang should start first.

Inferred from the time, the two of them saw the two corpses earlier than they did, and they might have secretly witnessed the killing of the two.

"Could it be them?"

Li Yu frowned, recalling the scene of guarding the escort cart in the backyard of the Dahua Inn last night.

At that time, a master of Qinggong acupointed the acupoints of Luo Qingshu, a scholar, and Zhu Er, a shopkeeper, but he never showed up again.
