Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

"What thief?"

Zhang Mo asked in a daze, then suddenly woke up, jumped up from the couch, and asked urgently, "What thief?"

Before Meixiang could answer, the rumbling sound of horse hooves in her ears said it all. With such frequent horse hooves sounds, there must be a lot of people coming. Zhang Mo's face changed immediately.

Meixiang shivered and said, "Anren and Du Fei went out to check."

Zhang Mo hurriedly put on her clothes and ran to the front yard. From the dilapidated gate, she could see a winding fire dragon moving towards her on the dark official road. Although it was still far away, the rumbling sound of the galloping horse made the ground tremble.

The Wang family's soldiers had never seen so many thieves. The leader Wang Jun turned pale and panicked. He just told everyone to quickly block the dilapidated gate. More than 200 people crowded in the yard in a noisy and disorderly manner.

Finally, Guan Hai stepped forward to take command, and everyone took their positions.

There were beds for footstools placed under the courtyard walls on both sides of the gate, and more than twenty soldiers equipped with bows and arrows were squatting on the beds, ready to shoot arrows at any time.

Du Fei took fifty people to guard the backyard, and the others scattered under the front yard wall to prevent thieves from climbing over the wall and entering.

After a few breaths, the bandits rushed over and surrounded the post house.

The leading thief was a stocky fellow with a short beard. He held two stone hammers the size of an adult's head. He rode forward and shouted, "Listen up, everyone inside! I'm only after money. Hand over the things obediently, or I'll spare your life."

"Ho! Ho! Ho!"

The thieves raised their weapons and knives, and shouted loudly, "Hand over your money, or you will be spared!"

Wang Yun had seen a lot of things, so he remained calm. He turned to Wang Jun and asked, "Are you sure you can repel the bandits?"

Wang Jun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "There are hundreds of bandits. We have no chance of defeating them."

He was telling the truth. Although the Wang family's troops had received training, they had never experienced actual combat. If the numbers were equal, they could still fight. But with the situation today, they had basically no chance of winning.

Wang Yun pondered for a moment, then continued, "This place is not far from Nie County. A fast horse would only take an hour or two to go back and forth. If we send a single rider to break through and seek help, can you hold the place until the county troops arrive?"

"This……"

Wang Jun hesitated, and Guan Hai said, "This method is inappropriate. The county soldiers are timid. They are cowardly even when defending the city. How dare they go out to kill the bandits? Moreover, there are not many county soldiers in this small county. Even if they are not afraid of the bandits, they will still defend the city. I am afraid they will not come to rescue us."

Xu Chu agreed deeply and nodded in agreement.

Wang Yun's expression immediately turned ugly, and he asked Guan Hai, "What should we do then?"

Guan Hai was born a bandit, and he had always robbed others. When would it be his turn to be robbed? He immediately said, "We are relying on the post station to resist. Although the bandits are numerous, the courtyard wall is so long that they can't rush in all at once. As long as we guard the courtyard wall and gate, we can easily repel the bandits."

"That's right. Kill dozens of these thieves and they'll know how powerful we are. Then they'll retreat!"

Xu Chu was not afraid of death and had sharpened his sword, ready to kill.

Wang Jun disagreed, "The thieves are only after money. If you resist, you may lose your life." It's not that he was afraid of death. He knew very well how capable his men were.

Wang Yun was still hesitating, but the bandits outside were already getting impatient. "I'll give you another half cup of tea. If you don't hand over your property, don't blame me for being merciless."

The other thieves followed suit and shouted, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Looking at his soldiers who were trembling in their hands and feet, Wang Yun finally did not dare to gamble with his family's lives. He waved to the housekeeper Wang, indicating that the debris blocking the door should be moved away.

The Wang family can still afford to spend this amount of money to avoid disaster.

Xu Chu stood on a rock by the wall, surveying the thieves. Suddenly, a familiar figure caught his eye. His eyes widened in disbelief, and he called out to Guan Hai, "Anren, come and see. Is that your buddy?"

Looking in the direction of his finger, Peng Tuo's familiar face was reflected in the firelight, flickering.

Without time to think about how Peng Tuo had escaped death in Kyoto, Guan Hai jumped off the stone pier, walked to Wang Yun in three or two steps, and whispered, "Master, this thief was brought here by Peng Tuo. This time he is not just robbing, he is probably seeking revenge."

"Pentuo?"

Wang Yun exclaimed, and then thought that he was able to secretly save Guan Hai, and Zhang Rang and others were very powerful, so they might be able to save Peng Tuo.

When in Runan, Peng Tuo was tortured by himself. Since he gathered the bandits to surround here, it must not be for money.

Guan Hai said: "Don't panic, we have the advantage of terrain, we may not be able to fight."

Guan Hai said to Wang Jun, "We can take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and strike first."

Looking at the sea of ​​people outside, Wang Jun swallowed hard and said, "You take the lead, I will obey you."

The thieves outside were shouting again. Guan Hai said to his trembling men, "Today, either they die or we die. If you don't want to die, be brave."

"Fire arrows!"

Puff, puff, puff, more than twenty arrows were shot sparsely, most of which fell to the ground halfway, and only a few hit the bandits, but only knocked down two people, one of whom was shot by Guan Hai.

Guan Hai was sweating. The effect was far different from what he had imagined.

Wang Yun saw this and shouted, "Have you guys had nothing to eat?"

Everyone looked at Wang Yun in fear and quickly drew their bows and arrows.

The bandit leader originally wanted to wait until all the things inside were moved out before leading his men to rush in and kill them by surprise, but he didn't expect that his own men were attacked first. Before he could react, a second round of arrows rained down, and amidst the howling, several of his men were shot down again.

The thief leader swung his hammer and shouted angrily, "Damn it, this old bastard is really tired of living. Come on, kill them and tear them apart."

Everyone dismounted, and hundreds of bandits rushed towards the post station like a tide.

The thieves were not far away to begin with, and the archers were unable to suppress them at all. Soon they rushed to the wall and the gate.

The thief leader waved a stone hammer and smashed the cars blocking the door. Peng Tuo picked up an empty truck carrying goods with his sword and flipped it over.

Next to them, many thieves gathered like zombies and climbed the wall. Although the guards were afraid, the situation was already like this. If they did not resist, they would die. They raised their knives and chopped off the hands and heads exposed on the wall. In a moment, dozens of hands and severed fingers fell in the yard.

Xu Chu and several of his men blocked the gate, and their spears and lances kept stabbing at the thieves who were pulling out miscellaneous items at the door.

After a while, seeing that the debris had been cleaned up by the thieves, Xu Chu laughed and rushed out with a big knife.

Peng Tuo still remembered the scene when this guy knocked him off his horse with a hoe. Seeing Xu Chu holding a big knife and looking ferocious, he didn't dare to confront him head-on. However, the bandit leader didn't know how powerful Xu Chu was, so he relied on the two big hammers in his hands and rushed forward to hit Xu Chu on the head.

"when--"

Xu Chu used his broadsword to separate the two hammers, turned his wrist, and slashed at the chest of the bandit leader with his backhand. The bandit leader had just lost the force of his previous hammer and had no time to swing back, so he leaned back quickly and barely avoided the blade.

Xu Chu did not give him a chance to breathe and chopped him down with his knife again. The bandit leader could not dodge in time and felt a pain in his left arm, as it was cut open.

Since Guan Hai came, Xu Chu also learned a few moves from him, and his fighting became more and more organized. In addition, he was born with supernatural powers, and his sword dance was very powerful.

The bandit leader originally thought that these were just ordinary troops and could be defeated in the blink of an eye, but he did not expect that there was such a skilled person among them. He was injured in two rounds and could not enter the wall. There was also an evil spirit guarding the gate. The bandit leader knew that if he continued to fight, he would suffer more and immediately wanted to retreat.

He knocked Xu Chu's sword away with a blow of his hammer and quickly retreated, while ordering, "Retreat quickly!"

The bandit leader retreated, and Peng Tuo dared not fight with Xu Chu, so he quickly followed him in retreat.

The bandits retreated two miles and stopped, still staring at the posthouse with eager eyes. Although they couldn't attack it, the people inside would never dare to come out to chase them. Peng Tuo suggested to attack with fire, but the bandit leader said angrily, "I came here for money. If you set fire to it, everything will be burned to ashes. What's the point of my efforts?"

He thought for a moment and said, "The wall surrounding the posthouse isn't very thick. Let's cut some stakes and knock it down."
