"Good men, we are the caravan of the Zhen family in Zhongshan. Please give us face and let us pass.”
"Hahaha, so what if it's the Zhen family of Zhongshan? If you want to go over, it will depend on whether you are sincere or not.”
Not far away from Chen Zhan's army, there were two forces confronting each other.
One of them was a merchant group. There were dozens of carriages carrying supplies and nearly 500 guards.
The Zhen Family of Zhongshan was a famous wealthy merchant in the Great Han Dynasty. They had hereditary official titles and had a strong influence in the Youji region.
In the past, no one had dared to provoke the Zhen family's caravan, but today, they had clearly encountered an accident.
Blocking the Zhen family's caravan was a group of about a thousand bandits. Many of them were wearing leather armor and holding standard weapons.
It was obvious that the background of this group of bandits was not simple.
"Uncle Fu…"
At this moment, a young man peeked out from the carriage in the middle of the caravan and gave a few instructions to the steward.
Then, the steward shouted to the bandits opposite him,""It's not easy to travel outside. I'm willing to offer three thousand taels of hard work money.”
"Hmph, you want to send us away with just three thousand taels? Do you think we're beggars?”
In front of the bandits, a fierce-looking man snorted coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the bandits behind him immediately shouted like a swarm of bees,
"That's right, thirty thousand is more like it. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving today.”
"You want money over your life, or you want your life over money.”
"Damn it, why are you wasting your breath on these guys? Just kill your way over and rob them all.”
……
"Little brother, will something happen?"
"Sister, don't worry. We have more than five hundred guards.”
In the carriage in the middle of the caravan, other than the youth from before, there was also a young woman.
The woman was about 18 years old, with a delicate face, big eyes, and fair skin. She was a rare beauty.
However, at this moment, her pretty face was filled with worry.
"I hope we can return to Zhongshan safely!”The woman thought about it but didn't say anything else.
The young man looked calm, but his eyes were filled with worry.
"Young Master, Young Miss, something is not right. I feel that the other party has no intention of letting us go.”
At this moment, the manager's solemn voice was transmitted into the carriage.
"This…"
The two people in the carriage were shocked. The young man quickly poked his head out and asked,"Barkley, do you think we can defeat these bandits?”
"It's hard to say!"
The manager frowned and said seriously,""If I'm not wrong, this should be a group of Yellow Turban bandits. I just don't know why they're here.”
" Yellow Turban thief!?"
"Yes, some of them have Yellow Turban tied to their arms. They must be related to the Yellow Turban thieves.”The manager said with certainty.
Hearing this, the young man's brows furrowed tightly, feeling that the matter was even more troublesome.
Bandits were usually only after money and would rarely risk their lives.
However, the Yellow Turban thieves were different. They burned, killed, robbed, and committed all kinds of evil. They were simply lunatics and especially hated the rich.
"Since it's the Yellow Turban thief, there's no need to waste any more time. Get ready to charge out!”
After pondering for a moment, the youth made a decisive decision." Uncle Fu, pass down the message. Regardless of whether you die or die in this battle, everyone will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver.”
"If he dies in battle, my Zhen family will definitely send the money to his family.”
Each of them had a hundred taels. With five hundred guards, that would be fifty thousand taels.
Although money was just a worldly possession, this youth was someone who could achieve great things by spending such a huge amount of money.
"Alright, Young Master!"
The steward looked at the young man in surprise. He did not expect his young master to have such great courage.
Not long after, the atmosphere of the entire caravan suddenly changed. All the guards 'eyes were filled with killing intent as they gripped their weapons tightly.
……
"Not good, things have changed."
On the bandits 'side, the burly leader saw the situation in the caravan and immediately sensed that something was wrong.
However, before he could declare war, he heard the sound of fighting. Then, he saw the guards of the merchant group charging towards them.
"Brothers, these people are all Yellow Turban bandits.!”
"Kill them!"
Most of the guards were servants of the Zhen family. If the young men and women in the carriage died here, their families would not live either.
With the temptation of a large sum of money, all of them charged at the bandits with red eyes and killing intent.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Hundreds of arrows flew out with ear-piercing sounds.
The bandits were caught off guard, and more than a hundred of them were shot dead, while hundreds of others were injured.
For a moment, screams rang out.
"Damn it, follow me and kill all these dogs of the aristocratic families.”
After dodging the arrow, the bandit leader cursed and raised his mace to attack a merchant guard.
"Go to hell!"
With a loud shout, the spiked club smashed the guard away. He lay on the ground, no longer breathing.
At the same time, the other bandits and the guards of the merchant group were also engaged in a battle.
"Yellow Turban traitor, go to hell!"
"Little brat, you want to kill your father? I'll kill you first.”
"Kill them!"
For a moment, the swords and sabers collided, and blood splattered everywhere. The cries of battle resounded through the forest.
Soon, the thick smell of blood drifted in the air and drifted away with the wind.
A cruel and bloody massacre began.
One side had more than a thousand people, while the other side had more than five hundred people. However, from the battle situation, the side with fewer people had the upper hand.
However, this situation only lasted for a very short time.
Just as Uncle Fu had guessed, these bandits were indeed Yellow Turban bandits, and they had fled from Fan Yang.
These people had been baptized in the battlefield, so their combat strength was not weak. Very quickly, they suppressed the attack of the caravan guards.
"F * ck, attack that carriage. There must be someone important inside.”
Suddenly, the bandit leader wiped the blood off his face and shouted ferociously.
Under his command, dozens of bandits immediately charged towards the carriage where the young man and girl were.
"Not good, quickly protect Young Master and Young Lady!”
Uncle Fu, who was guarding outside the carriage, saw this and his expression changed.
"Hahahaha, so it's the young master and young lady of the Zhen family. I didn't expect them to be two big fish.”
When the bandit leader heard this, he was instantly overjoyed and personally charged over.
Barkley's face was ashen with anger.
