Chapter 101 Caozhou Mutiny (2)
In the evening, Liu Qingyi came to report that he found more than a dozen unidentified young men near the house. They were wearing Guide Army's clothing, pretending to buy and sell things or chatting after drinking, but they peeped at the house from time to time, and had a ghost in their hearts!
As early as when he entered the residential courtyard, Dong Zunhui ordered people to open the abandoned back door quietly. From the outside, although the back door was still sealed with thick mud, there was actually only a thin layer left, which could easily be knocked open.
Dong Zunhui ordered Liu Qingyi to lead twenty people to guard the back door. After the enemy rushed into the house, Liu Qingyi and others would break open the back door and encircle them, so as not to miss an enemy. Liu Daqing led ten people to patrol the front yard as usual. Once the enemy attacked, he escorted Li Tao and his family to retreat into the back yard. As for Ma Dehai, he led twenty people to defend the center and entangle the enemy tightly until Liu Qingyi led his troops to arrive and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop.
As the night became deeper and deeper, the night patrol soldiers of the curfew hurriedly passed by the streets, as careless as usual. The number of young and strong people gathered near the house was as many as twenty. After the night patrol soldiers left, they flashed out of the darkness and slowly began to gather.
Dong Zunhui lay on the roof of the backyard, seeing the other party's dynamics clearly. He whispered: "Liu Daqing, wake up Lord Li Tao, saying that there were thieves who were planning to be ill-behaved!"
Liu Daqing immediately took the order and took his ten subordinates to the front yard. At this time, the guards under Li Tao, who were responsible for the night, also noticed something abnormal and were rushing to wake up his colleagues. However, everyone drank a lot of wine during dinner, so it was difficult to wake them up.
Li Tao had just completed today's statistics work and was about to "activity" with his two concubines, loosening his muscles and bones. As soon as he entered the alley, he was interrupted by Liu Daqing's slap in the door.
Li Tao was very annoyed and asked angrily: "What's wrong with you? When is it now, why are you knocking on the door now?"
Liu Daqing smiled and said with apologies: "Sir, my lord finds that there are thieves coveting our place and are gathering. I want me to wake up the lord and prepare for the fight!"
"Thief?!" Li Tao was so scared that he was defeated by his concubine. The object holding his head in his legs became even softer as a small insect.
The concubines were about to scream when they were slapped back by Li Tao. While busy dressing, he asked anxiously: "Where are the thieves from this? How many people are there? Is Lord Dong confident that he can keep it? Do you need to escort me to notify the garrison?"
Liu Daqing secretly despised him. I don’t know how many thieves there are, but he just wants to retreat. How did you become an official position in the court? Did you rely on flattery?! Actually, it’s not that Li Tao’s timidity. After all, he is a literati and only knows how to recite poems and paintings on weekdays. He has never seen swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, halberds, hooks and forks?
Liu Daqing whispered: "My adult has assembled troops and is preparing to give the thieves a head-on attack. There should be no need for the garrison to participate. Please move to the backyard immediately so that we can protect it!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Tao had already run out of the room in his middle clothes. Before he even had time to put on his boots, the two concubines screamed and hurriedly covered their bodies with their bellybands.
Liu Daqing quickly lowered his head, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and whispered: "Sir, don't be so anxious. The thief just got together and hadn't started to take action. You can wear clothes to avoid catching a cold."
Li Tao was also anxious and then hurried out. At this time, when the wind was standing at the door, the little wind blew, he felt very cool and hurried back to the house. After waiting for a while, when the thieves started smashing the door at the front door, Li Tao and two concubines had already put on their clothes and retreated back to the backyard under Liu Daqing's guard.
I heard someone shouting outside the front door: "Guide army was ordered to search the spies and open the door quickly!"
Li Tao's housekeeper also came to the door at this time, but he did not receive any notice, so he said loudly with a sleepy eyes: "We are all good people here, and there are no spies, so I hope to see clearly!"
Outside the door, Cao Jianren shouted loudly: "You know if you are a spy who opens the door. Open it quickly!" As he said, he ordered his subordinates to smash the door. Anyway, the location of the house was relatively remote. When the patrol soldiers heard the movement and rushed over to investigate, he believed that he had killed all the people in the house and fled.
The butler said angrily: "This is the official base, pay attention to his attitude!" The butler scolded him angrily while pulling the door bolt angrily.
At this time, the guards quickly reminded: "Don't open the door!"
The housekeeper held the door bolt and asked stupidly: "What?..."
Before he finished speaking, he was chopped to the ground by Cao Jianren's knife. While leading the crowd to rush in, Cao Jianren shouted loudly: "Guide the De Army, don't stop it!"
This time, he concentrated all his subordinates to attack from the front and deliberately let go of the back door in order to let a few clever guys escape from the house and serve as witnesses in the future. As for the officials living in the house, when he realized that this was not a Guide soldier, Cao Jianren could leave a letter to commemorate his body!
Cao Jianren killed the housekeeper and stopped charging forward, but directed his subordinates to rush forward. As he expected, all the guards in the house drank a lot of wine and ran out in a daze with swords. Although they fought to the death, they were all futile and were killed by Cao Jianren's troops one by one.
Seeing that his subordinates were charging smoothly and did not suffer any casualties, Cao Jianren couldn't help laughing proudly. At this moment, his subordinates replied loudly: "Sir, there is no one in the main house, and the bed is still warm!"
"It must have been running to the backyard, everyone followed me to chase me!" Cao Jianren shouted loudly: "Don't be busy plundering money. After completing the task, some rewards will be given!"
Hearing his shouts, his men finished plundering the guard's body and rushed to the backyard quickly. At this time, the door of the backyard opened, and a man stood in the middle of the door with a gun! Cao Jianren's two subordinates shouted in unison and rushed forward, but were stabbed to death by the man one by one!
Cao Jianren laughed instead of anger and shouted loudly: "Run up to me, kill him with more and less, and dismember him with corpses!" He thought to himself: Leaving a few corpses in Guide's clothing can even drag the Guide's army into the water. Isn't it just a person with good gun skills? A strong dragon cannot beat four hands, he is dead!
At this moment, a scream came from the front door. One of Cao Jianren's subordinates who were in charge of the Fengfeng was chopped into two pieces by Liu Qingyi! Liu Qingyi led his troops to rush over, and Dong Zunhui and others rushed out of the backyard! There were more than 50 people on both sides, surrounding Cao Jianren's troops tightly!
Cao Jianren was shocked. Was he ambushed?! He shouted loudly: "Fight with them!" But his hands and feet were trembling and his courage was lost! Seeing that his son was either chopped or captured alive, Cao Jianren gritted his teeth and put his sword across his neck!
