Chapter 36: Helping Hands

Fresh clothes and angry horses are the style of ancient chivalrous, and Lu Yuan expects the feeling of driving an off-road vehicle to gallop in the wild, but now it is only 39 years, and Lu Yuan's expectation is impossible to achieve. Besides, the horse he bought in Renqiu was not very good, and it looked good, but after getting on the road, he couldn't run alive or dead, so Lu Yuan couldn't enjoy the feeling of galloping at all.

That's right, Lu Yuan is not in Shanghai at the moment, but took a boat north to Tianjin two days ago, and after repairing in Tianjin for a night, Lu Yuan left Tianjin and went to Cangzhou first and then went straight to Baoding. A few days ago, Xu Huanshan received information from the underground party in Tianjin, saying that the Japanese army had gathered heavy troops to encircle and suppress the anti-Japanese forces in North China.

After a full meal of donkey meat in Cangzhou, Lu Yuan bought a horse in Renqiu casually, and ran to Baoding alone. There is a train in Baoding, and the Japanese army who went south to Shanxi to fight has always regarded this place as a material transfer point, and Lu Yuan planned to go to Baoding first to find trouble with the Japanese army, and by the way, get some weapons and ammunition as a meeting gift to the local anti-Japanese forces. After passing through Pangkou Town, on the official road that has always been Lu Yuan's one person and one horse, there are finally other people. Lu Yuan didn't pay much attention to the other people on the official road, and at this moment he was secretly thinking about whether he would go to the underground party contact point he had dealt with last time after Baoding, after all, he was not familiar with Baoding, and if there was accurate intelligence support, maybe the trip would be much smoother.

Lu Yuan, who was riding on horseback, pondered his own affairs, and the speed of the flower horse under his crotch was getting slower and slower, but he didn't care. There was a muffled sound of "bang", and at the turn of the official road in front, a sound similar to an earthen gun suddenly sounded. Lu Yuan on horseback did not have the slightest stunned, and slipped off the horse's back directly with a sideways, and when his feet landed, there was already an extra assault rifle in his empty hand. Lu Yuan, who landed on both feet, immediately drove the overwhelmed Dahuama to the side of the road, but he had already knelt on one knee and put the assault rifle in his hand flat.

In fact, the bend of the official road where the sound came from in front was at least a few hundred meters away from Lu Yuan, if it weren't for Lu Yuan's downwind position at the moment, maybe the sound he heard just now would not be so clear. opened the full-view map and took a look, but the situation displayed on the full-view map made Lu Yuanleng stunned, because at this moment, on his full-view map, there were no red dots representing the Japanese puppet army, and some were only blue dots representing civilians and non-enemies and non-friends. This is strange, Lu Yuan, who was suspicious in his heart, immediately drew a short knife and fixed the reins of the big flower horse on the side of the road, and then crossed the official road with an assault rifle and climbed up the gentle slope opposite the official road.

Climbing up to the mound opposite the official road, the condescending Lu Yuan easily saw the strange situation in front of him in the telescope, and saw more than 20 people of different shapes fighting together. Lu Yuan took a few closer glances with his binoculars, and then found two men with earthen spears, and the others were either big knives or spears in their hands. A carriage with a draped curtain pulled up on the side of the road, and a young man dressed as a student was standing in front of the carriage with his arms outstretched, holding a Browning pistol in his right hand.

Lu Yuan smacked his lips a little impatiently, the young man he saw in the telescope must have never shot before, facing the crowd of people who were fighting together, although the pistol in his hand had been raised horizontally, he had not shot. "Young Master Yang, we don't want to hurt you, you'd better let your family put down the weapons in their hands, otherwise we're really going to be polite." A dark-skinned man suddenly stopped what he was doing, took a step back, and then suddenly lifted his clothes and pulled out a shell gun from his waist.

The black-faced man's voice is not small, and when he was sinicized, he just rubbed the shell gun in his hand on his thigh, and he was ready to shoot at any time. The skilled and the rookie instantly became evenly divided, and seeing that the black-faced man also raised the shell gun in his hand, the young man standing in front of the carriage became more and more hesitant and nervous. The Browning pistol in his hand swayed from side to side, but he didn't pull the trigger until the black-faced man raised the muzzle of the gun and fired a shot.

The gunshot rang out, Yang Tianyu, who was flat-ended with a pistol but didn't dare to shoot, flashed a thrill, and the Browning pistol in his hand also fell at his feet, and when he came back to his senses and wanted to pick it up, he was kicked to the ground by the other party. Lu Yuan on the mound couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, this look is a bandit robbery, that young man should be a young master of a rich family, but unfortunately he has a gun in his hand but he doesn't dare to shoot.

Lu Yuan didn't have a good impression of bandits, because Lu Yuan didn't believe that there would be any chivalrous bandits in this era, so he decided to help the young man once. "Pop" Lu Yuan, who switched to a sniper rifle, immediately fired the first shot, and with one shot, the black-faced man with a short gun was knocked on his back and facing the sky. The sudden sound of gunfire and the shot of the boss fell to the ground, which made the other bandits stunned, Lu Yuanque quickly pulled the bolt, and then fired a second shot.

This time, it was a bandit with a large knife in his hand, and the bullet pierced the shoulder blade of the cargo, and the knife hand screamed in the blood mist, which instantly woke up the other bandits. "Young master, get off the roadbed, get off the roadbed quickly." Also coming back to their senses were the short-shirted men who had just been fighting with the bandits, and one of them reached out and dragged the young man down the roadbed. Bullets were fired down the mound one after another, and in just half a cigarette, the official road was full of corpses and wounded.

The last bullet in the magazine was also shot, and seeing that there was no one moving on the official road, Lu Yuan on the mound immediately collected the sniper rifle and returned to the official road under the mound with only the pistol. Yang Tianyu was dragged down the roadbed by the housekeeper at home, although it hurt to have his hands and feet rubbed by the stones and the blood, but Yang Tianyu was still covered by the housekeeper, no matter how he struggled, he was still pressed by the housekeeper and a housekeeper and couldn't move.

Yang Tianyu is a scholar, and his perspective is naturally different from that of the family members at home, when the family members are holding their heads and trembling, Yang Tianyu can hear the gunshots on the official road seem to be very rhythmic. The gunshots rang out one after another, and when Yang Tianyu counted to 14, the gunshots finally stopped. Coupled with the first shot that hit the black-faced man, Yang Tianyu knew that the mysterious snatcher only fired 15 shots, and if the other party used a rifle, it would be three bullet bridges.

"Uncle Yu, the gunfire has stopped, can you get me up now? I'm running out of breath. The gunshots had stopped, and when the housekeeper Uncle Yu instructed the family to check on the situation, Yang Tianyu, who had been being protected, took the opportunity to break free from the suppression of the housekeeper Uncle Yu. Yu Bo was about to speak, but suddenly his face suddenly changed, and he protected Yang Tianyu under him again, but Yang Tianyu didn't have time to react, so he was pressed and lying on the ground again. More than ten seconds later, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the official road, and Yang Tianyu, who was full of grievances, knew why the housekeeper Yu Bo suddenly changed his face again.

Coming from the official road was Lu Yuan, who was riding a big flower horse, and galloped to the side of the carriage, and Lu Yuan pulled the reins to stop the horse. "Hey, the bandits are almost dead, do you want to come up and take a look?" Lu Yuan on horseback turned his head and shrank Yang Tianyu who was hiding under the roadbed They shouted, and before Yang Tianyu could react, Lu Yuan had already deflected his legs off the horse, and before his feet landed, the short gun in Lu Yuan's hand rang out, knocking out a cloud of blood mist from a bandit who was injured but not dead.

The gunshot rang out suddenly, and Yu Bo and the others, who had already prepared to look at it, shrank their heads back like frightened birds. Seeing that Yang Tianyu and his gang were so timid and afraid, Lu Yuan on the official road didn't even bother to laugh at the other party, he just took care of himself to replenish the guns of the bandits who fell on the official road, and then leaned over to check the clothes pockets of the corpses one by one. Hearing the gunfire on the official road, it was replaced by a person whistling, Yu Bo and the others cautiously and quietly peeked out to look, but saw that the man on horseback just now was flipping the corpses on the ground one by one.

"This gun is yours, but this one is my trophy." The frightened Yang Tianyu was pulled up from under the roadbed by his own family, and before he stepped forward to greet Lu Yuan, who was angry, Lu Yuan, who had already stood up, handed over the Browning pistol that had not been shot. "It's just a meeting in Pingshui, there's no need for a name, it's not a big deal anyway." When Yang Tianyu, who was waiting to come back to his senses, asked Lu Yuan's name, Lu Yuanque did not let Yang Tianyu get his wish, just a few polite words, and Lu Yuan, who had received a shell gun and a small number of bullets, turned over and left alone.

"Young master, don't look at it, get in the car and go. I've seen it all just now, these seem to be people from Black Wind Ridge, there are too few of us, and the three babies are still injured, so it's best to rush home early. Yang Tianyu was pushed into the carriage by the housekeeper Yu Bo, and at Yang Tianyu's insistence, two other family members who were cut by bandits with knives also got into the carriage together, and the group ignored the bandit corpses on the official road, and just left quickly along the official road.

"Uncle Yu, that person just now looks about the same age as me, but why is he so powerful? More than a dozen bandits were all killed by him alone, and he didn't know where that person was going, if only he could be recruited into the family as a nursing home. Yang Tianyu, who poked his head out of the carriage, whispered to the housekeeper Yu Bo, but Yu Bo shook his head again and again when he heard him say this.

"Young master, you'd better not even think about it. I think that the young man just now is by no means an ordinary person, and as you said just now, young master, he killed all a dozen bandits alone. Killing a dozen people with a gun is not a big skill, but being able to flip the corpse casually and ignore the smell of blood is not something ordinary people can do, how could such a person be willing to be a nurse. ”
