Chapter 32
But at this critical moment…
“Lord Ning, you are not going to watch him die without helping, are you?”
Seeing Ning Fan hesitated, Wei Ran became anxious and asked.
“How many bandits are there this time?”
“Not too many, two or three hundred.”
Two or three hundred, that’s not a lot.
“Lord Ning’s thousand soldiers are all elites who have fought in the battlefield. It’s easy to kill two or three hundred bandits!”
“When you return triumphantly, I will give you the umbrella of the people of Ancheng!”
Wei Ran didn’t give Ning Fan a chance and spoke again.
Ning Fan pondered for a moment, and nodded in agreement without hesitation. As the defender of Ancheng, it was his duty to suppress the bandits.
“Sir Ning, I have already found out the lair of those bandits. It is in Xianhu Mountain, a hundred miles outside the city.”
“There is a stronghold in the mountain. The leader of the stronghold calls himself the Tiger King. He has two or three hundred bandits under his command. In our generation, he is quite powerful.”
Two or three hundred men are indeed strong enough.
To harass ordinary people is to strike at a lower dimension. Except for the army, the county officials alone cannot pose any threat to them.
“Okay, don’t worry, County Magistrate Wei.”
Ning Fan agreed.
But after Wei Ran got the answer, he did not leave. He was still standing in the military tent, which made Ning Fan very confused.
“Wei Zhixian?”
“Sir…you have to tell us the time to send troops. The people…can’t wait. In one day, new troubles may arise.”
“Tomorrow morning!”
Ning Fan frowned, always feeling that this guy was a bit weird.
After learning the time when Ning Fan would send troops, Wei Ran left with satisfaction.
“Xianhu Mountain?”
Ning Fan sat on the big chair and recalled carefully that there was indeed a nest of bandits in Xianhu Mountain. Over the years, they had caused trouble to the people near Ancheng.
Of course, the bandits only harmed the villages outside the city. They didn’t have the courage to attack Ancheng.
“I always feel that this matter is strange everywhere!”
Ning Fan shook his head and felt something was wrong.
But since he agreed, he would naturally take action. No matter what, if he could wipe out hundreds of bandits for the people of Ancheng, it would be a good thing.
The next morning, Ning Fan selected his troops and set off.
On the city gate, Wei Ran put his hands behind his back, watching the backs of Ning Fan and others leaving in a mighty manner, with a cluster of cold light flashing in his eyes, and a sneer on his lips could not help but appear.
A hundred miles is not that far. After all, this is not an ordinary ancient dynasty, but a world with powerful martial arts.
Among the thousand men under Ning Fan’s command, the two captains are innate masters, and the centurions are also acquired masters. Among the thousand-man army, a hundred are martial artists.
They are quite strong and can be called elite.
It is still easy to wipe out two or three hundred bandits, but there must be no twists and turns on the premise.
Not long after, Ning Fan and others arrived at Xianhu Mountain.
Xianhu Mountain is not high, and the trees are tall, which greatly affects the sight.
“Sir, I will lead a hundred people to explore the way first?”
A captain dismounted and came to Ning Fan to volunteer.
The mountain road is difficult to navigate and the visibility is poor. In this case, it is very dangerous for a thousand-man army to rush into the mountain. No one knows what is hidden inside.
“Okay.”
“But be careful!”
Ning Fan nodded and agreed.
Then, the captain led a hundred people and carefully went up the mountain.
Time passed bit by bit, but Ning Fan frowned.
It took a long time for the hundred people to go up the mountain, a full two incense sticks of time, but there was no news, which made Ning Fan mutter in his heart.
“Zhang Gan, you take two hundred people up!”
Ning Fan ordered another captain beside him to take people up the mountain.
Then, the two hundred people went into the mountain again.
This time, in just over ten minutes, the sound of fierce fighting broke out on the mountain.
Fighting!
“Go up the mountain!”
Ning Fan’s face suddenly changed, and he immediately turned over and dismounted, holding the Tianhuang Sword in his hand. The inner energy in his body surged like the roar of a Nujiang River, and he led the way up the mountain road.
The mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk on, and the higher you went, the more trees there were, which greatly affected your vision.
“Be careful of sneak attacks!”
Ning Fan hurriedly shouted, the current environment was too suitable for sneak attacks, what if the so-called Tiger King ambushed here and suddenly attacked, the consequences would be disastrous.
The sound of the fierce fight was getting closer and closer, and Ning Fan’s pace also quickened, striding forward.
At the same time, at the top of the mountain.
Chapter
And there were only a hundred people around them.
A hundred people killed more than three hundred of them, causing heavy losses. It can be seen that their strength is terrifying.
“Don’t talk nonsense, hurry up and deal with them, the others are coming soon!”
Someone looked down and saw a series of figures rushing to the top of the mountain, and then shouted in a low voice.
Kill!
Boom boom boom.
In an instant, hundreds of figures attacked together, and the true energy bursting out of everyone’s body was like a raging sea, rushing together.
“Zhang Gan, rush out and tell the adults that we are ambushed. These are not bandits, but hundreds of innate masters!”
Another captain roared, pushed Zhang Gan out, and then raised his knife to kill the opposite side.
These hundred people are not bandits, but hundreds of innate masters!
Otherwise, how could they kill more than 200 of them in an instant!
“Son of a bitch, I’m not done with you!”
Zhang Gan’s eyes were also bloodshot, but he had to rush out, otherwise once Ning Fan climbed the mountain, it would be all over.
Seven hundred people?
There was no way to stop these hundreds of Xiantian!
“Quick, kill him, don’t let him go down the mountain!”
Someone saw Zhang Gan trying to escape and immediately shouted, and then several figures quickly rushed towards Zhang Gan, wanting to kill him here.
“Fight to the death, protect Zhang Gan down the mountain, quick!!!”
Another general saw this and chopped off a master in front of him with a knife, and yelled wildly.
Then, the hundred people who were still alive quickly gathered together to use their bodies as meat shields to protect Zhang Gan from escaping.
For ordinary people, Xiantian is very strong!
Dozens of Xiantian can easily surround and kill the masters of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Except for the two generals who could fight back and forth, the other soldiers were simply difficult to stop. They were either killed or injured in a confrontation, which was despairing.
If the killing continued at this speed, it would take less than a few minutes for the remaining hundred people to be killed.
The Xiantian surrounded and killed Zhang Gan, who had tried to break out of the siege several times, but was forced back.
It’s over!
Zhang Gan and another general looked at each other with despair in their eyes.
There was a big battle on the top of the mountain. Ning Fan and others at the bottom of the mountain would definitely rush up once they heard the sound.
But once they rushed up, they found that they were not facing ordinary bandits, but hundreds of powerful Xiantian…
They didn’t dare to think about that scene anymore.
“Hundreds of Xiantian… It’s really a big deal!”
At this moment, Ning Fan’s figure appeared on the top of the mountain.
