As the saying goes, a good tiger can't handle a pack of wolves, and two fists can't even fight against four hands. No matter how deep Shangguan Yuanwu's cultivation was, no matter how strong his Soul Martial Skill was, he would not be able to handle so many enemies. Furthermore, Bai Yong, Gu Yue and the rest's cultivation were not weak either.
The seven of them surrounded Shangguan Yuanwu and fought him for more than thirty rounds. The latter could not take it anymore, had more defenses, and less attacks.
Seeing that the time had come, Tang Yin quickly attacked a few times on the surface, forcing Shangguan Yuanwu to panic. At the same time, he used Shadow Shift and suddenly appeared behind him, silently using a sweeping kick.
Shangguan Yuanwu felt that his lower body was under attack, but the surrounding weapons were already forcing him into a corner, making him unable to dodge at all. Following a dull thumping sound, Tang Yin's leg landed on his ankle, causing him to be unable to stand still as he cried out involuntarily, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.
Boom! * Shangguan Yuanwu was tall and big, with a full set of spirit armor, he fell to the ground, making a loud noise as if he had fallen over a huge mountain.
Without waiting for him to get up again, the weapons of Tang Yin, Bai Yong, and the others all struck him.
"Don't move! If you dare move again, move your head immediately! " Tang Yin lowered his head, looking down at Shangguan Yuanwu, as he shouted coldly.
Ah!" How could Shangguan Yuanwu accept this? He struggled to get up, but the sabre in Tang Yin's hand hacked down viciously onto Shangguan Yuanwu's chest. The spirit armor on his chest was instantly shattered, and he cried out in pain.
Without waiting for him to catch his breath, Tang Yin shook his head and shouted: "Tie him up!"
Li Wei and Chen Fang pulled out a long iron chain from the bushes beside each of them and tied Shangguan Yuanwu up.
The two Shangguan brothers who were mighty a moment ago, now became prisoners for Tang Yin. Their expressions were ugly as they laid on the ground and stared at Tang Yin while grinding their teeth. If their eyes could turn into knives, Tang Yin's body would have at least hundreds of holes.
The two Shangguan brothers were tied up like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they were carried by Bai Yong, Gu Yue and the others and placed on the horses. Only then did everyone walk out of the forest in high spirits.
Bai Yong walked to Tang Yin's side and laughed: "If it wasn't for Master Tang attacking Shangguan Yuanbiao first, we really wouldn't have been able to handle these two brothers!"
He was speaking the truth, Shangguan Yuanbiao's cultivation was not inferior to Shangguan Yuanwu, if the two brothers were to fight, let alone earn benefits from him, it would be difficult for Tang Yin to even protect himself.
Hearing his words, Tang Yin only chuckled, and did not say much. Shangguan Yuanwu who was lying on the back of the horse was not convinced, and shouted: "What do you guys have to be proud of? "If it wasn't for us brothers being too careless, you'd have to train for another hundred years to catch me …"
Halfway through his shout, Li Wei ripped another piece of cloth from inside the armor, and with a bang, he stuffed it into Shangguan Yuanwu's mouth.
This time, the two brothers had become mute.
While they were returning triumphantly, Zhang Zhou was progressing smoothly on the other side.
He commanded over three thousand soldiers to attack the bandits, regardless of numbers or fighting strength, they had the absolute advantage. Without the Brother Shangguan as their leader and leader, the bandits were not a match for the soldiers, and were quickly dispersed. Some of them fled, while the others who did not manage to escape in time became prisoners.
When Tang Yin and the rest arrived, the battle was already nearing its end. Zhang Zhou was leading his main forces to attack the bandit base at the top of the mountain.
Without waiting for them to head up the mountain, Qiu Zhen ran quickly from among the soldiers who were cleaning the field. Seeing the captured Brother Shangguan, he happily smiled and said: "This battle is considered our great success!"
Seeing Qiu Zhen here, other than Bai Yong, no one else was surprised. As long as a war occurred, regardless of their size, regardless of whether they held the advantage or not, Qiu Zhen would hide far away, as if he was afraid that he would be affected.
Tang Yin asked: "How is the situation over here?"
"The bandits could not withstand a single blow, and their main force has already been dispersed by us. The remaining remnants do not pose much of a threat." Qiu Zhen said while shaking his head.
This result was within everyone's expectations, and it was only now that Brother Shangguan realised that not only did he fall victim to's ambush, he had also fallen into their trap of luring the tiger out of the mountain, and while the two of them were chasing Bai Yong, a large group of soldiers had already came to kill him.
The two brothers were furious and resentful at the same time, but now that they were captured, it was too late for them to regret. The two of them were like roosters that had lost a battle, their heads were raised high as they were dragged down.
Seeing that, Bai Yong walked to the front of the horse, looked at the two brothers who were extremely regretful and dispirited, and said: "How is it? Now you two should know how powerful the Master Tang is! "If you two could give up and come out into the light, I can guarantee that you two would not be in danger, and could instead show off your skills in the army. If you two still persist, then this time you two might not be able to save either of you!"
Shangguan Yuanbiao suddenly raised his head, his eyes wide open as he looked at Bai Yong without blinking.
Knowing that he had something to say, Bai Yong reached out and removed the piece of cloth that was stuffed into his mouth.
The moment he received the freedom to speak, Shangguan Yuanbiao could not wait and scolded loudly, "Screw you despicable scumbag, once I free myself, I will definitely dismember your corpses …"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Bai Yong shook his head and put the piece of cloth back into his mouth, sighing: "Truly good words, it is difficult to persuade the damned ghosts, do the two of you think you still have a chance to escape? When we return to the Heng City, it will be the time of your deaths! "
"Wuu …" "Howl …"
Shangguan Yuanbiao's eyes widened even wider, his throat occasionally letting out wuwu sounds, but unfortunately he could not curse out a single word.
After waiting at the foot of the mountain for around an hour, Zhang Zhou finally led his soldiers down the mountain.
Eight of the soldiers were even carrying four big boxes, and just by looking at their appearance, one could tell that the contents inside were not normal. Qiu Zhen's eyes lit up, he quickly went forward and asked the soldiers to stop, then opened the boxes, only to see that they were filled with gold and silver.
"Haha, Tang..." Master, we've struck it rich this time! " Qiu Zhen turned his head and shouted.
Tang Yin urged his horse forward, and lowered his head to take a look, his heart was startled, then turned to look at Brother Shangguan, and indifferently said: "The evil deeds the two of you committed in Pingyuan County, can be seen from this! Right now, I am beginning to suspect that Shangguan Yuanji's support of the army was provided by the two of you, and that you had colluded with him! "
"Woo woo …"
If Tang Yin had insisted on this, and used this as a way to convict, then his brother's fate would be the same as's. The key thing was, the two of them had never given Shangguan Yuanji a single coin, and on the other hand, Shangguan Yuanji had kept on urging the two brothers to stop.
Seeing the reaction of the two brothers, Tang Yin guessed that the situation wasn't like what he had said. Laughing secretly in his heart, he didn't reveal any expression, his expression was as cold as ice, and deliberately threatened them: "Wait until we return to Heng City, I'll punish you two for your crimes!"
"Wuu …" "Sob, sob, sob …"
Brother Shangguan's shouts became more frequent.
Zhang Zhou and Bai Yong looked at each other, their mouths agape, neither said a word.
The battle went smoothly, not only did they manage to capture the Brother Shangguan, they also managed to destroy the bandits' stronghold, and captured a large number of bandits. Furthermore, they had also obtained a large amount of gold and silver.
Tang Yin led the group and returned victorious, afraid that something bad would happen on the way. The team traveled through the night, and in the morning the next day, they smoothly returned to Heng City.
When the county and city officials saw Tang Yin from afar, they quickly stepped forward and bowed to him, praising him one after the other: "Master Tang is indeed extraordinary, and the bandits obtained a complete victory in their first battle. In the future, with Master Tang overseeing our Pingyuan County, it will be our county's fortune, the common people's fortune!"
"The might of the Master Tang —"
Everyone liked to hear praises, so Tang Yin was no exception. Although the fawning smiles on everyone's faces dazzled him, he still accepted the words of praise with peace of mind.
He sat on his warhorse, the corners of his mouth curled up, his fierce eyes curved into a smile, and he cupped his hands towards the crowd. He said with a smile, "My lords, you have worked hard. Although he said this, in his heart, he was secretly calculating that when the time was ripe, he would give the county's officials a great change of blood.
"Aiya, Master Tang is being too polite!" All the officials were flattered and flattered as they escorted him into the city.
It was reasonable to say that exterminating a huge group of bandits was a joyous event, but the Heng City was still very lifeless. Other than some officials welcoming them, the citizens of the city remained indifferent, not to mention welcoming them, even the spectators were few in number.
This scene caused Tang Yin to frown, and the joy in his heart was greatly reduced, was he not doing well enough?
He waved to Zhang Zhou who was behind him, called him to his side and whispered: "General Zhang, why do I feel like the people of the city don't care about these bandits?"
"Oh!" Zhang Zhou laughed bitterly and said sternly: "Even though Brother Shangguan is a bandit, they never rob the common folk in the past. They only act against the merchants, so the common people do not have any deep ill intentions towards them."
In truth, his words were softer than usual, but in the hearts of the commoners, they all felt that Tang Yin, the newly appointed county guard, was celebrating. Since he didn't dare to take the initiative to attack Savage Soldier, he could only attack the bandits within the borders.
The citizens all had the mindset of hating rich, and the Brother Shangguan's act of robbing rich was very fitting of the citizens' mindset. Therefore, the citizens did not hate bandits, but hated the soldiers who could only put on appearances but not protect them.
