While shouting the name of Liangshan,
They charged toward the west gate of Yuncheng County!
Benefiting from Liangshan's prestige in Yuncheng,
The people along the way spontaneously made way for them.
This allowed Wu Yong and his men to do so without any effort.
They had already arrived at the west gate of Yuncheng.
Just as everyone was about to force their way out of the city gate,
But when they arrived at the place, they found that...
The gatekeepers were soldiers.
They had all vanished without a trace!
"This...this...could there be a trap here?"
Hua Rong asked suspiciously.
"You've been shouting the name of Liangshan all the way here,"
Zhu Tong said helplessly,
"The government troops in Yuncheng County were already terrified of Liangshan."
"Presumably, after hearing about Liangshan's actions, the guards at the gate all fled for their lives."
“Chief Zhu is right,”
Wu Yong nodded.
"Let's not delay any longer, let's hurry out of the city and meet up with Brother Gongming!"
Everyone responded in unison.
They then rushed out of the west gate of Yuncheng County together.
Not long after leaving the city,
Then they heard the clatter of horses' hooves behind them.
Turning around and looking,
They were actually the only twenty or so cavalry soldiers from Yuncheng County.
He was chasing after them, wielding a knife and a gun!
"These bastards dare to look down on us like this!"
Liu Tang roared angrily.
"A mere twenty or so people dare to come and hunt us down!"
"Shall we kill these birdmen first?"
"Brother Liu Tang, don't act rashly!"
Wu Yong quickly grabbed a handful of red-haired devil's hair.
"These are just scouts from the county government's pursuing troops!"
"Once we get bogged down by them, and the infantry catch up behind, we'll be in real trouble!"
"The best course of action now is to reunite with Brother Gongming!"
After saying this,
Wu Yong then gave Hua Rong a wink.
Let Little Li Guang drag Liu Tang along.
The group continued their escape towards the place they had agreed upon with Song Jiang!
As the saying goes,
Two fists can't beat four hands.
How can two legs outrun four legs!
Seeing the distance to the agreed-upon grove,
There are still three or four miles to go.
The cavalry soldiers from Yuncheng County had already caught up!
Seeing that they were surrounded by the cavalry,
Zhu Tong immediately shouted,
"We've been brothers for many years, are you really going to watch me die?"
This is the handsome, bearded Zhu Tong.
He served as the head constable in Yuncheng County for over ten years.
Its jurisdiction,
Besides the county government runners
These are the cavalry soldiers from the county!
Now that Zhu Tong has spoken,
After years of accumulated power and influence,
These cavalry soldiers who surrounded them
They all hesitated immediately!
"Hmph, Zhu Tong, how dare you, a mere constable, collude with bandits!"
Suddenly, one of the cavalrymen spoke up in a mocking tone.
"Now you have the nerve to try and establish a relationship with us!"
"Ma Er, you treacherous villain!"
Upon seeing the person speaking, Zhu Tong
But his eyes immediately reddened!
It turns out that this person was Ma Er.
It was that bailiff who informed on the matter to the magistrate of Yuncheng County.
He was originally Zhu Tongde's subordinate.
In the past, when the family encountered difficulties,
The bearded man had also helped him on several occasions.
Who knew in the end,
He betrayed Zhu Tongde.
It was this person too!
"Hmph, who exactly is the traitor?"
Ma Erli said confidently.
"If you, Zhu Tongxian, hadn't colluded with the bandits first, how could I have informed the magistrate?"
"Zhu Tong, your current predicament is entirely your own doing!"
"If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for making the wrong friends and having to associate with bandits!"
"Hmph, I did make a mistake in choosing my friends, but the one I should never have met is you!"
After Zhu Tong finished speaking,
He gritted his teeth suddenly.
Then one must hold a broadsword,
Charge toward Ma Er!
Unexpectedly, although Ma Er had little martial arts skill,
But he was quick-witted.
He knew his own position as a constable.
If we really talk about fighting,
Nine times out of ten, they are no match for these bandits who have been living on the edge of a knife for years!
Seeing Zhu Tong and his men charging towards him,
This fellow immediately shouted,
He ordered the cavalry to disperse.
Then, holding a longbow,
Each of them used their bows and arrows to meet the enemy!
"Listen up, brothers! The magistrate has said that Yuncheng County is currently short of an infantry captain!"
Ma Er called out loudly,
"Whoever can kill Zhu Tong will be made the infantry captain!"
"And for each of the remaining Qingfeng Mountain bandits killed, a reward of ten taels of silver will be given..."
Chapter 610 Song Jiang Appears
As the saying goes,
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
Moreover, nowadays, in addition to monetary rewards,
There's still a position for a captain of the infantry left there!
No need for Ma Er to say anything more,
In an instant, the cavalrymen abandoned any pretense of friendship with Zhu Tong.
They all took out their longbows.
They began firing at the group from Qingfeng Mountain!
On this side of Qingfeng Mountain,
In order to rescue Zhu Tong,
Everyone entered the city on foot.
At this point, it was naturally impossible to catch up with these cavalrymen.
But when it comes to archery,
This Little Li Guang Hua Rong,
While not quite unparalleled in the world,
But it's not that different!
Seeing these cavalrymen from Yuncheng County,
They even tried to kill themselves and the others with arrows.
Hua Rong immediately stopped being polite.
Two arrows shot out in quick succession.
They then shot and killed the two cavalrymen closest to them!
But when he drew his bow and nocked an arrow again,
When he wanted to shoot that ungrateful Ma Er...
