Chapter 330： Horse bandit enters the town

When she said this, the Han brothers and sisters immediately believed that this woman was a businessman who only wanted profit.

Although it is very rare for such a young woman to do business, the Han brothers and sisters are not interested in the story behind this philistine merchant. They only know that they have saved the face of the Han family and have not let a mere merchant look down upon them.

As for the steward who made them lose face and lose money, they will naturally punish him, so that he will never dare to obey others.

Ye Anlan didn't know that the brother and sister could still get satisfaction after renting a house in the town for a thousand taels. She and Li Jing took the rest of the team to the place they "shared" with another caravan. The house next door.

The other so-called caravan was just some of Ye's personal guards who also pretended to be a caravan.

Before, Ye Anlan's personal guards in Ye Anlan's team came over to make a cutscene, and discussed with the leader of this team to spend the night in the same house tonight.

On the surface, Ye Anlan and the others were only qualified to be the first to enter the courtyard for activities in this house, but in fact, as soon as the gate was closed, the people around Ye Anlan immediately joined hands with their companions, regardless of each other. Off to prepare dinner.

He ate a simple dinner happily and happily, leaving the person in charge of the night watch, and the others took the time to rest.

However, when it was the second watch, Ye Anlan was suddenly awakened by the sound of horseshoes like a gust of wind and rain.

Changan got up earlier than her, and the two of them jumped up and rushed out of the room after a while, Li Jing, Yang Xiaotao and others followed one after another.

"It's a horse bandit." Relying on his skill, Chang An quickly went out to investigate a small circle, and when he came back, his face became a little more relaxed than before, "There are more than 1,200 people in total. The extra sound of horseshoes is An empty horse without a rider."

Li Jing frowned, "We caught up with the horse bandits entering the town to loot."

Ye Anlan sighed, "Xiao Tao, go and arrange people to defend and counterattack."

Yang Xiaotao was not like Ye Anlan, because she was listless when she didn't sleep, she answered "Yes", and then quickly went to organize Ye's personal guards to do things.

After she left, Ye Anlan asked Zheng Fengshou to send someone to deliver news to Ye's personal guards who lived in other houses.

In addition to the basic situation of the horse bandits relayed by Chang'an, Ye's personal guards sent by Zheng Fengshou also conveyed Ye Anlan's combat purpose to his companions-defense first, counterattacks are allowed, and he would rather expose his identity than let himself fall into a passive situation.

Ye's personal guards were not surprised by this at all. Miss Ye of their family always asked them to live first, and then asked them to complete the task.

The generals who were in charge of leading the other Ye's personal guards soon divided up the work of their own soldiers.

They took out the bows and arrows hidden in the mezzanine of the vehicle, picked up the swords, guns, swords and axes they carried with them, and sharpened their knives to deal with the horse bandits who rushed into the town.

At the same time, the brothers and sisters of the Han family who robbed Ye Anlan and their house also ordered the guards to guard the house and protect them.

The guards are not as good as Chang An, so naturally they dare not go out alone to investigate the situation.

They can only arrange for people to guard the gate, back door, courtyard wall, etc., to prevent horse bandits from climbing over the wall and entering.

Miss Han, who experienced this kind of thing for the first time, was so frightened that she dared to hide in the house and tremble. Her elder brother, Mr. Han, was a little better. The guards quickly deployed their defenses.

"Open the door, open the door!" As soon as they assigned the personnel in place, the arrogant horse bandit leader waved his hand and sent a lot of dog legs to smash the doors from house to house.

They obviously knew the situation in the town very well, and when they knocked on the door, they were looking for the kind of houses that were rented out for pedestrians to live in temporarily.

Furthermore, Ye Anlan and the others also discovered that these horse bandits mainly took care of them, and basically all of them were "fat sheep" like them who had goods and a lot of money at first glance.

Those small merchants who just brought a little money or goods, as long as they didn't happen to be unlucky and lived near the "Fat Sheep", the horse bandits basically wouldn't patronize them deliberately.

Ye Anlan frowned slightly, and she asked Li Jing, "Ah Jing, do you think they are like this because someone in the town tipped them off?"

Li Jing also suspected this, but he felt that apart from the fact that some people in the town colluded with the horse bandits, it was also possible that the horse bandits had visited many times, so they already had a good understanding of the situation in the town.

He uttered another guess of his own, and Ye Anlan couldn't help but frowned even more after hearing this, "If this is the case, wouldn't it mean that the Wang family and the Great Zhou court have all given up this Ronghe town?"

Li Jing sighed, "If that's the case, what they gave up is to protect Ronghe Town. Excessive taxation, corvee collection, these bad things, they will not forget the people of Ronghe Town."

Ye Anlan: Okay, why did she forget, some people just don't want to be responsible, but also want to take advantage.

If such people do not hold authority, then they can only harm the people around them at most, but once they hold authority, they will definitely harm more innocent people.

The two of them chatted without delay to continue observing the situation outside the hospital.

The horse bandits smashed the door but failed to smash out the people in the yard, so they simply took ladders, logs and the like, and began to climb over the wall and knock on the door.

At the same time, the travelers with their guards and bodyguards launched a fierce counterattack against the bandits outside the door.

Relying on their own advantageous position, they continued to use bows, arrows, and hidden weapons to attack the arrogant horse bandits.

There are quite a few horse bandits, but in order to loot as much as possible, they dispersed to a total of five families to attack after they started their operations.

In this way, for those who were attacked by them, the number of horse bandits that each household had to face suddenly changed from more than 1,000 to more than 200.

If the opponent is just an ordinary traveler or merchant, with a limited number of guards and bodyguards and average skills, then more than two hundred vicious bandits are indeed qualified to burn, kill and loot with an overwhelming advantage.

But the problem is that there is a large group of Ye's personal guards in Ronghe Town today.

These people are not only far stronger than those bandits in individual combat power, but even their numbers are far from what the bandits can match.

When others look at them, the only combatants they can see are the guards and bodyguards who carry swords and swords on the surface, but they don't know that in these few teams of them, the servants, servants, etc. account for about 70% of the total number of people. The man, the groom, and even the delicate-looking "Young Master" in one of the teams are all elite soldiers from the Ye family.

It doesn’t matter if they can fight, but all of them treat the horse bandits as monkeys.

The guards of the Han brothers and sisters honestly relied on the gate and the courtyard wall to fight against the enemy, but Ye's personal guards deliberately pretended to be unable to compete with them, opened the courtyard door and let the horse bandits in, trying not to attract people as much as possible. Pay attention to the case of stealthy children to kill.
