Chapter 356(2/2)

Although there is a war and chaos at the moment, the vendors have to do business, and the people have to take advantage of the leisure time to go out and work part-time to earn hard money. Therefore, the faces of those waiting at Mijiaji are full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Seeing that Han Qing and others were neatly dressed and had horses riding around, the people's eyes immediately filled with hope.

Everyone expected that this young master could come forward to persuade the Liao soldiers guarding the ferry to help the group cross the river. Or he could come forward to discuss a charter with the Liao soldiers and let everyone spend money to "self-certify" their identities.

However, the people soon became disappointed.

"Brother Gongzi" Han Qing did not approach the Liao army at all. Instead, he jumped off his mount more than 200 steps away from the ferry, went to a nearby chicken-feather shop and ordered wine, food, tables and chairs. While eating and drinking, he patiently watched lively.

"But he only has clothes but no courage!" The common people were not too disappointed. They muttered and quickly looked away.

People like "Brother Gongzi" who usually show off their power but don't even dare to show off when meeting the soldiers of Liao Kingdom, the common people have seen many times, not least this one today.

While I was feeling depressed, I heard two screams of "Ah, ah -" coming from the ferry. Immediately afterwards, several Liao cavalrymen picked up a man dressed as a merchant and walked towards the river beach.

At the feet of the rest of the Liao soldiers, there were still two corpses lying vaguely. Judging from their clothing, they should be the merchant's clerks or followers.

"It's unfair, it's unfair! I came from Shenzhou, and I carry a public document with me. I have never been to Youzhou!" The vendor was so frightened that he dragged his feet on the ground and shouted loudly.

Crying about injustice. (Note: Gongzhi, Lu Yin from the Song Dynasty)

However, how could the Liao soldiers listen? After holding him for more than ten steps, he chopped off his head with a single blow.

"No, Liao soldiers are motivated by wealth and want to kill innocent people!" Jin Xiaochen was shocked and exclaimed in a low voice with a red face.

If he had not reported to Han Qing just now that the military discipline of this group of Liao troops was acceptable, Han Qing would not have led them near Mijiaji.

But now, the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom saw more and more people waiting for them, and many of them were carrying large and small packages. They suddenly became interested in wealth. If everyone evades, they will immediately become the first target of attack.

"Stand still, accept the search!" Before Jin Xiaochen could figure out what to do, the Liao army leading the team all shook their heads, kicked away the corpses at their feet, pointed their knives at a few civilians who were turning around and wanted to leave, and shouted loudly.

, "If you are sure that it has nothing to do with the assassins, I will let you go. If you are related to the assassins, or your origins are unknown, and you recruited them yourself, I can spare your life!"

As soon as the words fell, all the Liao cavalry turned over and jumped on their horses. Holding steel swords and riding bows in hand, they quickly formed two snake-shaped formations.

"Master, spare your life!" The people waiting to cross the river had never seen such a brutal battle. Immediately, a large number of people fell to their knees.

"Run, they want to make money and kill people!" Near the ferry, there were also a few experienced traders who often traveled around. They shouted, turned around and jumped on the horse.

Immediately some Liao soldiers pulled away the cavalry and shot at those who tried to escape. In a blink of an eye, they all were shot off their horses.

Another team of cavalrymen with swords rode their horses and stepped over the bodies of the kneeling beggars. They raised their swords and chopped all the traders who had just been shot off their horses into two pieces.

Immediately, the gangsters raised their knives and bows, and rushed towards the north entrance of Mijiaji. It was obvious that they wanted to block the entire market town and kill all the people who were preparing to cross the river.

"Copycats, kill them for me!" Han Qing was furious. He immediately stopped thinking about whether his identity was exposed or not. He pulled the reins and jumped onto his mount.

The incident happened suddenly. He had deliberately chosen a location far away from the ferry. He realized that the Liao cavalry was killing people and robbing money, and he had no time to stop him.

However, he could not continue to watch those beasts do whatever they wanted. So, after jumping on the mount, he took advantage of the situation and took out the steel knife hidden in the luggage roll on the horse.

Before he could speed up his mount and start a hedge against the approaching Liao cavalry, from a chicken feather shop fifty steps ahead of him to his left, a familiar figure suddenly flashed out, stood on the table and opened his horned bow.

Aim at the oncoming Liao army, draw the string and shoot.
