Chapter 59 Ambush
Chen Tianan did not go directly to the county government. Before he set off, he had arranged for someone to arrive in Tonglu and quietly set up a house in the county. The house was not large in size and the location was not eye-catching. When he arrived at the house, Chen Tianan called the person who was standing in front of the beating, drank tea and listened to his report.
Listening carefully, Chen Tianan didn't interrupt, but just asked a few questions at some key points. The person standing before the fight was an old man under his command, loyal and reliable, and at the same time he did things carefully. He collected a lot of information about the family-killing case that occurred in the Chen family mansion. After hearing it one by one, Chen Tianan didn't say much, nodded slightly and asked him to retreat first.
"Qian Ming!"
"I'm humble!" A middle-aged man in regular clothes heard him and hurried into the room from the outer corridor and saluted Chen Tianan.
"Take my official post to invite County Magistrate Liao over, remember not to disturb others."
"Yeah!"
Qian Ming responded without saying much, turned around and left in a hurry.
After the person left, Chen Tianan didn't do his job, but just sat quietly and thought. He only took a sip of the tea and placed it there. He still frowned until the tea became cold.
Backing back, in the evening of the next day, Dong Dashan hurriedly found Zhu Yicheng. The news just came from the county that Chen Tianan would arrive in Chenjia Town tomorrow.
"Is the news true?"
"It's true!" Dong Dashan patted his chest and said, "It is said that Chen Tianan brought about 30 people and will arrive in Chenjia Town tomorrow morning."
Zhu Yicheng nodded slightly. It seemed that Chen Tianan was very concerned about the Chen family's family annihilation case, and he also brought more than 30 guards. With Chen Tianan's identity and status, coupled with his influence in Chen family's town, I'm afraid the matter of the Chen family's mansion could not be covered up.
Although Zhu Yicheng was mentally prepared for this, he hesitated for a while. Now he may be able to avoid risks when leaving directly, but it is not so easy for more than 300 people and some craftsmen to leave. Moreover, whether it is Tonglu or Chenjia Town, including the place behind the mountain, Zhu Yicheng has spent some time in business, and he is reluctant to leave these belongings directly.
"Mom Xipi! If you have a way in heaven, you don't go, and if you have no way in hell, you break in!" Zhu Yicheng cursed inwardly. Since this is the case, it would be better to start directly. So what if Chen Tianan brought more than 30 people? The number of people he had in his hands was more than ten times that of him. Moreover, after this period of training, Zhu Yicheng believed that these rebel soldiers were no longer the same as before and were enough to accomplish things.
Since you are here, you should just stop it. Chen Tianan's route back to his hometown has been placed in front of Zhu Yicheng. As long as Chen Tianan was accidentally solved halfway, he would find some ways to cover it up later. Chenjia Town is still his own territory.
Making up his mind, Zhu Yicheng made up his mind and immediately called everyone to arrange it. That night, Zhu Yicheng personally led three teams of brothers to set up an ambush near a path ten miles away from Chenjia Town, preparing to wait for Chen Tianan to fall into the trap.
It was early in the summer, and it was already bright at about five o'clock. Hiding in a wooded tree on the trail, Zhu Yicheng used breakfast with dry food and waited patiently for Chen Tianan to arrive.
It took more than two hours to wait. As the sun grew higher and higher, Chen Tianan was still missing.
"What's going on? People won't go another way, right?" Zhu Yicheng couldn't help but wonder. He called someone to ask him to go to the front and saw him. The man hurriedly left. After about half an hour, the man ran back and said excitedly: "Here you are here! You will be here three miles away, you will be here soon!"
"Brothers! The deal is coming! Bring me up!" Zhu Yicheng was immediately excited when he heard that the person was coming. After staying with the rebel army for a long time, he also learned a few words of incisions in the martial arts world and immediately learned to use them.
After hiding for a night and being sunny for the whole morning, the rebels were already a little depressed. Fortunately, Zhu Yicheng's training for the past few days was not in vain. If it were in the past, these people would probably not be able to even get up. But now, when they heard Zhu Yicheng's orders, everyone quickly shook their energy, took weapons, and prepared for them, waiting for Chen Tianan to appear.
Not long after, I vaguely saw a group of people appearing from the path. The head was the soldiers wearing green camp clothes. There was an official sedan chair in the middle of the team, and there were also yamen runners holding a quiet and avoiding sign to open the way. Behind the team, there were also soldiers escorting the formation, and the counting number was about the same as in the information, with a total of about thirty people.
With his eyes fixed on the official sedan chair in the middle, Zhu Yicheng could determine that Chen Tianan was in the sedan chair. The speed of the people in this treble was not too fast, and they arrived in a short while.
The place where Zhu Yicheng chose to ambush was pretty good. It happened to be the turn of the trail, with valleys and woods in front and behind. When Chen Tianan's front team had just turned the corner and the back team had not passed, Zhu Yicheng decisively issued an order to attack.
With a command, the rebels, who had already prepared, picked up the bamboo bow and shot at the team. Although the range of the bamboo bow was not far and its power was far less than that of a real long bow, after this period of training, the bamboo bow's surprise attack was still significant. Dozens of bamboo arrows shot from the forest towards the center of the team, especially the official sedan chair. The sedan chair carrying the sedan chair did not react at all, and the arrows arrived in front of them.
A scream sounded, and the yamen runners and soldiers on the side of the sedan chair were first affected. The thrown bamboo arrows fell like raindrops. The unlucky ones were directly shot to death by the bamboo arrows on the spot. Fortunately, they shot their arms and thighs, fell to the ground and rolled and cried. They were lucky enough to avoid them without being shot or were slightly injured, and the team was in a panic.
"There are thieves! Protect the adults! Protect the adults quickly!"
One of the officers and soldiers of the green camp responded quickly. While shouting, he pulled out his waist knife and ran towards the official coupe. The sword in his hand danced into a silver light, and the bamboo arrows falling from the sky were actually knocked away by him. The other soldiers also reacted at this time. Two people picked up the quiet landing on the ground, used the avoiding official card as shields, and protected the official sedan that had been hit by several arrows.
"Cum! Cum hard!"
As soon as the battle started, when the officers and soldiers were shot in their eyes, and screams and shouts were heard in their ears, Zhu Yicheng's adrenal hormones suddenly rose and he became excited.
The bamboo bow kept shooting, and from time to time, soldiers were shot to the ground, either dead or injured. In a blink of an eye, only half of Chen Tianan's people were left.
"Protect the adults first! Hurry up!" The general shouted anxiously. Under the cover of two soldiers holding signs, a figure emerged from the sedan chair, and then bent down under their cover, retreating in a hurry.
When Zhu Yicheng saw a figure wearing an official robe coming out of the sedan chair, he felt very depressed. Although many of his bamboo arrows shot into the sedan chair, they were not able to penetrate the sedan chair and shoot Chen Tianan to death because of the lack of shooting power. Judging from Chen Tianan's appearance of running away in a panic, he should have been injured, but no matter what, as long as Chen Tianan does not die, the ambush will not achieve his goal.
"Kill me! No one is left!"
The sword in his hand pointed forward, and Zhu Yicheng roared. The rebels rushed out of the forest like a rainbow, and they rushed out of the forest like a tiger from the mountain, and killed in the direction where Chen Tianan escaped.
The remaining soldiers resisted directly on the path, but how could they be the opponents of the Rebel Army dozens of times? In just a few rounds, more than ten soldiers were killed like cutting vegetables and melons. Chen Tianan, who was covered by the two soldiers, fled in a panic in a hurry toward the direction of the way he came.
