During the Anti-Japanese War, the landlord's stupid son defied fate
Chapter 12 Zhao Gang's Response
At this moment, everyone was immersed in the charm of the opera, and no one noticed that on a small hill not far away, a group of people were watching every move here with binoculars.
The leader was none other than Wang Mazi, a former bandit who was appointed deputy head of the security corps by Zhao'an.
Today he came here for a huge fortune, which was the Zhao Mansion, a large landowner nearby, and the coal mine behind the village.
Because a few days ago, he had a falling out with Captain Li of the security team because he also wanted to have a share of the profits here, but was rejected by Captain Li.
Helpless, he had to call a group of his brothers to come to Xiaopi Village.
It just so happened that Xiaopi Village was very lively today. Not only did many wealthy people from the county come, but there were also many ordinary people watching the show. A group of actors from the Sanle Troupe came from the provincial capital, and it was said that the beautiful Butterfly Girl was also there.
This was God's will, and he had no choice. He would be doing himself a disservice if he didn't take action.
"Brothers, we are going to get rich today. Mr. Zhao, the biggest landlord here, is having a big feast to celebrate the awakening of his foolish son."
"Do you think we can have a good meal?"
Everyone laughed. They couldn't hide their smug expressions or conceal their lustful eyes.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go! Today is the first time we brothers will do business after regaining our freedom."
"After we rob the Zhao Mansion, we won't have to worry about food and drink for three years, don't you think?"
Everyone burst into laughter and echoed.
Their hearts are filled with greed and desire, and their eyes are shining with fiery light.
These people were originally bandits. They had been soldiers in the security corps for less than a year, and now they wanted to do evil again.
They forgot the lesson that their leader had once taught them, and only thought about their immediate interests.
"Okay! Let's have a big fight then!"
At Wang Mazi's command, everyone rushed towards Xiaopi Village like hungry wolves.
At this time, the Zhao Mansion was immersed in a happy and peaceful atmosphere, completely unaware of the danger that was about to come.
People laughed and enjoyed the performance of the three-member music band.
This group of villains took advantage of the situation and were about to break the peace.
Wang Mazi's men were running very fast. In front of them were fifty people riding horses and galloping towards Xiaopi Village at lightning speed.
Although this place is still two miles away from the village, at this speed, we will definitely reach Xiaopi Village within ten minutes.
Even if we get discovered, it doesn't matter.
The enemy has a large number of people, and once they become confused, they will be unable to mount an effective defense.
Moreover, they have 800 people, and everyone has a gun, while the other side has only a few people, so he will definitely be able to take this place today.
Soon, the guards on duty outside discovered something unusual.
They picked up the telescope to look and were stunned.
"Quick, inform the master, bandits are attacking!"
One of the guards in the escort shouted in panic.
"No, it's too late. Let's fire a warning shot!" another person suggested.
Indeed, if they go to inform the master now, by the time they return, the enemy may have almost reached the village entrance.
So the two men quickly fired into the air, five times in a row until the magazine was empty. Then they quickly reloaded the ammunition and ran towards the village.
The people who were watching the show were suddenly stunned when they heard gunshots.
They were terrified and at a loss.
Butler Liu immediately noticed something was wrong and quickly told the three music troupes to stop singing. He quickly ran to Master Zhao and said.
"Master, it's bad! Something terrible has happened! Let's go!"
Butler Liu ran over in a panic, with obvious fear in his voice.
He didn't know what had happened, but the five gunshots just now made him panic.
Mr. Zhao quickly calmed down and said to Butler Liu, "Butler Liu, hurry! Bring the guests and the Three Music Band into the mansion! We have high walls that can hold out for a while."
"Yes, sir!"
Butler Liu agreed and hurriedly invited everyone into the Zhao Mansion.
Those rich people were already scared out of their wits and fled towards Zhao's mansion.
The owner of the Sanleban knew that today's matter would be difficult to resolve.
He felt that as long as he could protect the butterflies, nothing else mattered.
So, he shouted to Butterfly, who was still in a daze, "Butterfly, don't be stunned. Come with me into the Zhao Mansion!"
"Captain, even if we get into the Zhao Mansion, what can we do? Sooner or later, it will be broken into by those outside!"
Butterfly doesn't seem to want to escape reality.
"Oh, silly girl, just save your life! Go!"
The class leader urged Butterfly anxiously, and the others followed them as they walked towards Zhao's house.
Zhao Gang never expected that things would be so coincidental.
He was somewhat doubtful, but more of it was disbelief, so without any hesitation, he immediately turned around and left, walking quickly towards the assassins hiding near his home.
The assassins were keenly aware of their master's call. They emerged from their hiding places and quickly gathered together.
Soon, the assassins reunited with Zhao Gang.
"Master, what happened?" asked one of the assassins.
"Take your people and move with me, and move quickly." He said anxiously.
The strength of this company is of vital importance to him, and he must act as soon as possible.
At this time, the tenant farmers, farmers in the village and people nearby all learned the news of the bandits' attack. Everyone fled in panic and the situation was in chaos.
Many households took in a large number of outsiders for refuge.
When Zhao Gang returned to the gate of Zhao Mansion with his men, the gate suddenly closed.
"Master, where have you been? Go back to the house quickly. It's too dangerous outside now."
Butler Liu hurried over to greet Zhao Gang, his face full of anxiety.
However, when he saw the strangers standing behind Zhao Gang, he was stunned.
"Who are you? How did you get into our house? Who allowed you to come in?"
He frowned and looked at the group of strangers in front of him warily, because he didn't know these people at all.
But he was familiar with the tenant farmers and villagers in the village.
"Okay, Butler Liu, go call the captain of the guard. I have something to say. These are my people, don't worry about them."
Although Butler Liu was a little confused, he still went to find someone as Zhao Kuo requested.
After all, it was the young master's order, and he had to carry it out.
Li Biao was busy organizing people at this time. They added sacks to the high walls, trying to make some simple shelters to deal with possible enemies.
Li Biao knew very well that they only had twenty people and a few guns, and there should be other guns at home, but there were very few people who knew how to use guns, and the ammunition was very limited.
As for how many people there are on the other side, he still has no idea.
At this moment, two people suddenly ran in from outside. They turned out to be the two people in charge of patrolling and keeping watch.
Li Biao saw them at a glance while standing on the high wall, and immediately ordered his men to open the gate and let the two sentries in.
Li Biao quickly jumped off the high wall. Before he could communicate with the two sentries, Butler Liu said, "Captain Li, the young master is looking for you."
Li Biao glanced at Butler Liu and responded, "Well, Butler Liu, I'll first find out what the situation is, and then go find the young master."
