Chapter 27 The Demise of Flying Tiger Stronghold
"Damn it, we're done for. These bandits will definitely hang us."
The innermost house of Flying Tiger Village was where the captured people were imprisoned. The one speaking was a middle-aged Hu man. This was his first time in the Great Dragon Kingdom, and he never expected to be so unlucky as to be captured by bandits.
"Shut up, George. If you keep babbling on, you might anger the bandits, and then you'll really have to be hanged."
George had been in a daze ever since he was arrested a few days ago, constantly talking to himself. Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore.
"We'll all die, we'll all die, ha ha ha."
"He's gone mad, George has really gone mad."
These past few days, everyone has been locked up here, and they were already on high alert. Now, with George's actions, everyone is even more anxious.
"Bang~"
The tightly closed door was kicked open, and just when everyone thought that bandits had come to hang them, a familiar voice suddenly came out.
"John, George, are you both alright?"
"Is it Hussein? Hussein, is it really you?"
"Thank God, you're still alive! You even brought people to save us."
The sudden turn of events, from life to death, brought this group of people immense joy.
"What about the rest?"
"They locked the woman in the next room."
Seeing that the room was full of men, Hu Sai suddenly felt a little nervous. After all, women were always treated like lambs, no matter where they were. Hearing that the women were in the next room, he rushed over, kicked the door open, and found that the women were fully clothed, though somewhat tired. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
"Brother, you are finally here."
A blonde, blue-eyed little girl stepped out from among the women. She had fair skin and, unusually, no freckles on her face.
"My sister, are you alright?"
"It's nothing, everyone's just exhausted. Brother, where did you find this army?"
It turned out that the little girl was Hussein's younger sister. Zhou Wu, standing nearby, was very curious. Hussein looked quite ordinary, but his sister was so cute. He often saw on the internet that Western nobles were very promiscuous, with recent marriages and numerous lovers. Could it be...?
"Dose-sler~"
Zhou Wu dared not think about it any further, after all, it was someone else's family matter.
"Haha, sister, this is my friend, Wu. He is a lord, and these are his private soldiers. He actually answered us."
Although Hu Sai's introduction inadvertently elevated Zhou Wu's status by several levels, upon closer reflection, it made sense. He was now managing a village, which was essentially like having a territory, haha.
"Hello, beautiful lady, my name is Zhou Wu."
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Zhou Wu took the other's small hand, then gently lifted it and kissed it lightly.
The little girl and Hussein were both shocked. They never expected that in this distant Eastern country, there would be people who knew the aristocratic etiquette of their own country.
"Sir, thank you very much for your help."
The little girl also bowed slightly in response. Just as the two were about to have a deeper conversation, the security team that was cleaning up the battlefield outside came to report.
"Brother Wu, something bad has happened! The bandits who just left have returned."
Upon hearing this, the soldiers from the security regiment were taken aback. Seeing everyone's sudden serious expression, Hu Sai quickly pressed for an answer.
"Wu, what's wrong?"
"The bandits are back."
Because Zhou Wu spoke in English, all the Hu people present heard him clearly and immediately became agitated.
"Alright, calm down, everyone. We outnumber the bandits, and with our stronghold as a base, it won't be easy for them to get in."
Zhou Wu's words brought everyone back to their senses somewhat, and Hu Sai, realizing what was happening, chimed in to support him.
"Wu is right. Let's take the prisoners' weapons and fight the bandits."
Hussein still held some prestige among the Hu people. As soon as he spoke, the men picked up the weapons of the prisoners and prepared to fight the bandits.
"Hussein, you lead your men to provide support from the side. The women should hide inside the house. Members of the security force should go up to the high platform and prepare to shoot with bows and arrows."
"Yes"
Everyone began to take their positions according to Zhou Wu's instructions.
At this time, the bandits who had returned from their outings were unaware that their stronghold had been captured, so they were still chatting and laughing.
"Damn, it's been a long time since I've been with a woman."
The leader of the team was Flying Tiger, the second-in-command One-Eyed Dragon, and the newly promoted third-in-command Niu Bi. They had heard rumors that there was a big job in Jinti, but when they arrived, they found that it was indeed a big job. There were about a hundred people escorting the convoy, and their small number of people were just a waste of their time. So Flying Tiger led his men away.
"Brother, aren't there a few women in the village?"
"Get lost! That foreign woman, blonde and blue-eyed, looks like a ghost. You think you can lift her up?"
"Haha."
The bandits' taunts echoed throughout the forest, which also explained why the little girl, a woman captured by the bandits for several days, was still able to remain virgin. It turned out that the Great Dragon Man simply couldn't appreciate these foreign women.
"Open the door, I'm back."
The group arrived at the gate of the stronghold, but unexpectedly the gate was not opened in advance. This annoyed Fei Hu. He was already unhappy because the robbery had failed, and he thought to himself that he would definitely teach the guards a lesson later.
"You bastards, are you all deaf? I'm back, open the door!"
The roar did not trigger the expected opening of the gate. Instead, more than a dozen figures suddenly emerged from the simple fence. When the bandits outside saw what these people looked like, they realized they had been tricked.
"Soldiers, run!"
"shoot"
The security team's bows and arrows were already aimed at the bandits outside. Zhou Wu had specifically instructed everyone to aim at the bandits on horseback first, as he had been eyeing those horses for a long time. So, in the first round of shooting, seven bandits on horseback were either killed or wounded.
The seemingly fierce leader, Flying Tiger, was killed on the spot. The second leader, One-Eyed Dragon, and the third leader, Bully, were lucky enough to escape with their lives. Although they were hit by arrows, they were not seriously injured.
Before the bandits could react, a second volley of arrows came down. Without cover, the bandits were like sitting ducks.
"The government is here; disarm and you will not be killed."
The bandits' words reminded Zhou Wu that since they were already being mistaken for government soldiers, why not play along and pretend to be government soldiers? That way, he might be able to trick these bandits into surrendering.
As expected, as soon as Zhou Wu spoke, Niu Er reacted and shouted, "The government is here! Disarm and you will not be killed!" The other bandits followed suit and began to imitate him. Sure enough, some of the bandits immediately dropped their weapons.
"The situation is hopeless, let's go."
Seeing that things were hopeless, the second-in-command, One-Eyed Dragon Eye, grabbed Niu Bi and began to escape in the chaos.
Seeing that the bandits had all thrown their weapons on the ground, Zhou Wu opened the gate of the stronghold. The security team members stepped forward to disarm them and then tied them up. He looked thoughtfully at the direction in which One-Eyed Dragon and Niu Bi had fled.
"Brother Wu, what are you looking at?"
"Oh, it's nothing, my eyes are playing tricks on me."
