The room goes through the late Ming Dynasty, and the back door leads to North America at the beginni

Bang!

Gunshots rang out again, and the rider carrying the flag was shot and fell off his horse. His eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he refused to rest in silence.

The remaining three riders and six bandits couldn't understand how Liu Sheng's fire blunderbuss could fire continuously and so accurately. They didn't have time to think too much. They just knew that saving their lives was the most important thing, so they fled immediately.

Liu Sheng knew that letting these people go back would definitely cause more trouble, so he rode on the flagman's horse, chased after him, and first killed the three escaping riders, and then forced the remaining six bandits back.

At this time, the other refugees had been calmed down by Peng Youyi and four other temporary corps commanders, and they did not run around, which surprised Liu Sheng a little.

"Throw away your weapons and squat together!" Liu Sheng shouted to the six bandits while riding on his horse, holding a revolver.

The six people just noticed that the three riders were also killed by Liu Sheng with a revolver. Now they were extremely afraid of Liu Sheng, fearing that Liu Sheng would raise his hand and beat them to death, so they all obeyed Throw away the weapon and squat down.

"Tell me the truth, are you the same group as these patrol officers?"

No one said a word.

Liu Sheng sneered, "No one is willing to explain, right? Well, I'll kill one person every dozens of times, one, two..."

When Liu Sheng counted to seven, some people couldn't hold it anymore and fell to their knees with a plop, saying repeatedly: "Hero, spare your life, I am willing to explain!"

"explain."

"We are all white laborers recruited from the refugees by Inspector Mao. We have no salary and can only get some benefits by helping to rob roads. We usually guard the roadside and take action when we get news from the inspection department."

"Can the Inspection Department also recruit white workers?"

"I don't know."

Liu Sheng said: "Then do you know how many soldiers there are in the Inspection Department? How many white servants like you are there? And if you know the background of Mao's inspection, please tell me."

"It is said that the Maodian Inspection Department has 50 archers stipulated by the government, but in fact there are only 20. The rest should be left to Mao Inspection's free pay.

As for Bai Yi, Mao's inspections have recently recruited a lot of people. There are already fifty people, who have been divided into five teams. The other four teams are stationed near the road leading to the Sifang from Maojiaji, obeying orders.

As for Mao's inspection, I only know that his name is Mao Chengshun and that he is a member of the Mao family in Maojiaji, but I don't know anything else. "

Liu Sheng heard that this man spoke in a coherent manner, so he asked: "What is your name and where are you from?"

"The young Shi Jincai is from Ruzhou."

Liu Sheng threw a knife over and said, "Have you seen those patrol officers who were shot but not dead? Go stab them and I will spare your life."

As soon as Shi Jincai heard this, he knew that Liu Sheng wanted him to hand over his certificate. Since he came forward to explain Mao Chengshun's matter, he didn't want to stay in Maojiaji any longer. He immediately picked up a knife and stabbed a soldier who was shot to death.

Previously, only one of the five patrol officers was shot in the heart by Liu Sheng's bullet and died on the spot, while the remaining four were seriously injured. If it were in later generations, it would be possible to salvage this kind of injury, but in the late Ming Dynasty, he could only wait to die.

Therefore, Liu Sheng used these four soldiers to ask the living "white servants" to hand over their names.

Immediately, he looked at the other five people and said, "If the five of you want to survive, just stab them all."

These five people all managed to survive droughts and wars. Who wouldn’t want to survive? Seeing that there was no other choice, they all did as Liu Sheng said.

Then, Liu Sheng turned his attention to the refugees.

Many of the refugees who had just attempted to escape shrank back in fear. Two of the men were even shivering. Soon they could no longer hold on and fell to their knees with a plop.

These two people were the first two to escape, but they came back after watching Liu Sheng kill the bandits and the people from the inspection department like chopping vegetables and melons.

"My boss, please spare my life, we don't dare to run away anymore..." Both of them, their wives and children kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Liu Sheng said: "Since you are just ordinary people and this is your first offender, I will give you a chance - go over and kill the two soldiers who are still alive."

The two of them did not dare to say anything. They tremblingly picked up the knife and went to kill the two patrol officers who were only breathing.

Then, Liu Sheng removed all the warheads from the body, ordered everyone to throw the body behind the hillside, and then continued on the road with his team.

As for completely cleaning up the traces, the workload is too great and unrealistic. It is better to rush back to Tianmu Mountain as soon as possible.

Even if the inspection department followed the traces into the mountains, he was not afraid - the dozens of people in Mao Chengshun's hands might not be his opponents in the mountains. If Mao Chengshun brought more officers and soldiers in the name of suppressing bandits, he would probably lead them to retreat to North America.

The biggest obstacle to him today's killing of the patrol officers was probably that he would no longer be able to come to Mao's house to buy supplies and recruit people...

"Liu Dongjia, please let me go back. I promise not to say a word about what happened today."

In the afternoon, Liu Sheng led everyone to the vicinity of Xiaoli Village. There was no road ahead for carriages, so he prepared to unload the goods.

At this time, the coachman Yang Dagui wanted to return to Mao's house for gathering, but Liu Sheng asked him to live in the village for a few days, so he was so frightened that he begged for mercy.

After listening to his words, Liu Sheng smiled and said: "Master Yang, even if I believe you will not take the initiative to tell anyone, what if Mao Chengshun captures you and tortures you?"

"I will never say anything about being tortured!" Yang Dagui vowed.

"Master Yang is not afraid of severe torture. How many days are you afraid of living in my village?"

After saying this, Liu Sheng stopped talking to Yang Dagui and directed everyone to unload and transport the goods.

This time, Liu Sheng only left the carriage in Xiaoli Village. The five horses and the five mules that had been stored at Li Fuchang's house, plus a mule belonging to Yang Dagui, were all used by him to carry goods and take them deep into the mountains.

Although the mountain road was still difficult to walk, it was finally possible, so at around 4 p.m., Liu Sheng led everyone to Liujiazhai (the southern slope of Fangshan Mountain).

Liu Dachuan, Zou Runniang and others were shocked when they saw Liu Sheng bringing back so many people and mules.

Then everyone looked worried.

Even though they knew that Liu Sheng was here to recruit people, they didn't expect that Liu Sheng would recruit so many people at once.

Liu Sheng went to Maojiaji for the first time and bought ten shi of grain. He saved enough to feed more than a dozen of them for half a year.

Now fifty or sixty people have come, as well as so many mules and horses. Even if Liu Sheng buys another five stones of grain, he may not be able to last two months. Not to mention, Liu Sheng also wanted to move all ten families from the West Fen Ridge.

Thinking of this, Liu Dachuan, Zou Runniang and others couldn't help but look worried.

"What are you doing?" Liu Sheng greeted loudly, "Zou Runniang arranged for the food and other materials to be stored in the warehouse, and Liu Dachuan and Zhou Maohua arranged for each family to sit down on the slope to rest. Liu Erhe, Zheng Erli, you lead the people Please hurry up and build a mountain road for me."

Although they were worried and confused, several people immediately followed Liu Sheng's instructions.

"Which section of road does the boss want us to build?" Liu Erhe asked in confusion after coming over.

Now that there are so many people, isn’t the first thing we need to do is set up tents?

"You guys come with me."

Liu Sheng took the two of them directly away from the northwest corner of the stockade fence and walked up the mountain. On the way, Liu Sheng put away hidden and vicious traps from time to time.

Liu Erhe and Zheng Erli were so excited that their scalps went numb.

They had noticed Liu Sheng'ai running towards this mountain before, taking the extremely rugged "road", so they were naturally curious. But out of awe of Liu Sheng, he didn't come over to take a peek.

Now I can't help but feel happy: Fortunately they didn't come, otherwise if I had fallen into that trap, at least I would have been disabled.

Although the mountain road of two to three hundred meters was difficult to walk, under the leadership of Liu Sheng, Liu Erhe and Zheng Erli walked not slowly, and they reached the cave in only three minutes.

Liu Sheng sent all the retrieved trap supplies into the cave, then came out and said to the two of them: "What you have to do is lead people to repair the road we just walked as soon as possible before dark.

There is no requirement for more, just make it easier to walk and safer first. Remember? "

The two nodded.

Then Liu Erhe finally couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, pointed to the cave and asked: "Master, what's in this cave?"

Liu Sheng smiled mysteriously, "It's my home."
