Boss Ma was so scared that his body tilted sideways, and he supported himself on the ground with his hands. “What does Hu Laosi have to do with you? You didn’t rent any land from me,” Boss Ma said as he stood up tremblingly.

"Seventh Aerial Team, all armored teams," Hu Laosi raised his right hand and shouted the command.

"Here," Li Long and the other three immediately stood in a row and answered in unison.

"Let us formally introduce ourselves. We are the 7th Armored Team, specializing in protecting the people and cracking down on all kinds of swindlers and bullies. Boss Ma, you are now oppressing the people. If you don't get out of here, we will act according to the law," Hu Laosi answered loudly to Boss Ma.

Boss Ma was frightened by the sudden situation and took two steps back.

"What a mess, a bunch of young boys, I won't bother with you, I'll go find your father and teach him a lesson." Although his legs were unconsciously retreating, his mouth was still tough, he looked at them, took a few steps back, then shook his sleeves and walked away.

As Boss Ma walked away, the air suddenly became quiet and no one moved.

"Please go away and stop looking," Du Chenyu was the first to break the silence.

At this time, Zhang Gou'er picked up a stone and threw it in the direction where Ma Lao Da left. Of course, everyone understood that Gou'er hated his father and mother, so they all looked at him with pity.

"How do you feel?" Du Chenyu continued to ask.

"It feels great. It feels really great. I've never felt so relieved before," Li Long answered first.

"That's right, that's right, seeing that old rich man being scared like a dog makes me feel really good." Everyone was talking about the majesty just now.

"Do you want to avenge Gouwazi?" Du Chenyu continued to ask.

"I want to..." Qi Sheng replied.

"Young master, just tell me how to report it, and I will go and beat up old man Ma right away," said Hu Laosi again, rubbing his hands ready to fight.

"Yes... yes... Young Master, please arrange it quickly," everyone rushed to Du Chenyu and said.

"Whatever is bad today won't be bad tomorrow. How can you skinny noobs fight? Everyone should keep training hard. When you are mature in training and the right opportunity comes, everything will fall into place naturally," he comforted everyone.

When his father came back in the afternoon, Du Chenyu told his father what happened today. His father only said that everyone should be more careful in the future and try not to provoke the Ma family. The three brothers of the Ma family are quite powerful and are said to have guns. They can't afford to provoke them at the moment.

But after experiencing what happened today, I can clearly feel that the team members are more united, grandpa is more supportive, and he even allows my second uncle to participate in training when he has time. The steamed buns that my mother eats for midnight snack are obviously bigger than yesterday.

Farm work was relatively easy these days, so Du Chenyu asked Li Long and He Cunyi to go back at night to inquire about the Ma family's news, paying special attention to their outings to avoid being caught off guard by anything that might happen. The training time was also increased by half an hour.

On November 11, Li Long came to him in a hurry at noon and said,

"Young Master, Ma Wenshu will be leaving tomorrow and returning to Baizhangguan School. It is said that he will be promoted to Inspector of Schools." He asked all team members to call him Young Master Chenyu in the future, and not to call him Young Master anymore, as he did not like this feudalistic term.

The opportunity had come. He was thinking that if Ma Wenshu was promoted successfully and established connections in the inspection office, their future would be difficult, and he had to stop it. After preparing for the past few days, he also had a preliminary plan to see if it could be realized.

"How many of them are accompanying them?" Du Chenyu asked.

"We don't know about that," said Li Long.

He Cunyi also came in the afternoon and confirmed that Ma Wenshu would return to school tomorrow and Mao Erwa would accompany him.

Du Chenyu did not plan to discuss the plan with his father, nor did he plan to tell anyone else. He just asked his mother to bake cakes and prepare dry food, as he planned to go out tomorrow morning. His mother was a little worried and said that he could not walk steadily and could not go out.

"Mom... Mom... Just let me go out. I'll let my second uncle carry me, and I'll hold her arm and shake her." Under his killer attack, mother agreed. As a result, when father came back, mother told him off, and father hugged him and went to the back of the house.

"Are you planning to kill Ma Wenshu tomorrow?" No one knows his son better than his father. He knew his tricks at a glance.

"Whatever you plan to do, I will go too. Ma Wenshu's promotion will have a huge impact on our family," the father continued.

"Dad, you can't go. If you go, you'll be too conspicuous. How can we explain why you've been suspended from school for no reason and Ma Wenshu is missing? Anyone with a discerning eye can figure it out. We're different. We're all children and won't easily attract attention." Du Chenyu explained.

"What's your plan?" asked the father.

"I have two plans, which are... this way?" Du Chenyu explained in detail.

"Okay, I can choose not to go, but you must not force things. Safety is the most important thing. They are still children. If anything happens to anyone, I won't be able to explain to their parents, understand?" The father solemnly instructed Du Chenyu.

After the night school, there was no basic training, so that everyone could rest early. After 10 days of training, the food was increased. Although we could not eat very much, we basically did not starve. It was just that the oil and water were not enough. Everyone still had a mild black eye problem (in the old society, due to malnutrition, the eyesight was very poor at night and the elderly could not see at dusk, commonly known as black eyes).

The next day, all the team members got up as soon as the roosters crowed, which was around 5 o'clock. In order to make it easier to get up last night, he slept with his second uncle instead of his mother and father. He asked everyone to bring the prepared things, including a baked cake, two hemp ropes, a large net made of ropes, a sharpened wooden stick, and three torches, and then they set off quietly.

Du Chenyu lay on his uncle's back, looking back to see his grandfather, father, and mother all watching them leave by the courtyard, with his mother still wiping her eyes. He took one look and immediately turned around, telling his uncle to walk faster. His uncle was still asking where they were going, and he said they were going to the market. They came to the river, crossed the wooden bridge, and jogged along the mountain road for about half an hour. It was just dawn, and fortunately, there was no one on the road. In order to avoid people on the road in the morning, he told them to go through the woods and came to a valley. This was Shaojiwo on the Mi Cang Road, at the junction of the sixth and eighth bao of Wuyin Township. The terrain here was steep and the trees were dense. He asked everyone to stop, as there was no one living within a radius of two kilometers.

"Everyone should have guessed what we are here for. Today we are here to break Ma Wenshu's legs, to avenge Zhang Gou'er's parents and to knock down Ma Laogou's arrogance. He raises the rent every year to find a way for everyone to survive. Otherwise, after Ma Wenshu is promoted, we will all be forced into a desperate situation. Do you dare? Do you want revenge?"

Du Chenyu rode on his second uncle's shoulders and began to give a mobilization speech before the operation. Although his voice was very small, cute and childish, he still finished it in one breath. He was too young and it was the first time for him to speak so much, so he was very tired.

"I want to, I want to..." Everyone clenched their fists and gave varying responses. It seemed that morale was high.

According to the established plan, we began to choose the specific ambush location and ambush method. Plan 3: Ma Wenshu and two people or less will go together. That is, put a rattan net across the road, with a piece of rag in the middle of the rattan net, and the people on both sides will ambush in the leaves. When the enemy arrives, immediately pull up the net to catch them, and the people on both sides will immediately rush out, cover the enemy's head, and tie him up. Plan 4: If there are 4 or people going together, throw stones from a high place, and retreat after throwing; if there are more than people, the plan will be cancelled.

As the first plan had been rehearsed several times during the training in the previous two days, everyone cooperated closely and quickly. The specific execution was directed by Hu Laosi, Du Chenyu was sitting in the distance watching, Zhang Gouer was on a tree three or four hundred meters away, observing the situation, and notifying when the enemy came. Li Long was on a rock 100 meters away, observing the situation. The rest of the people, with their faces and arms covered with black charcoal dust, hid and waited with peace of mind.

It’s a long story, but the ambush lasted only a few minutes. When everything was ready, Du Chenyu lay on his back behind a big tree, sleeping in a pile of dead grass and leaves, looking at the road.

This road is one of the main roads in Mi Cang. It starts from Nanzheng County, Shaanxi Province, passes through Huangguanling, Baiyan River, crosses Gaoqiaoya (the middle section of Mi Cang Mountain), exits the southern foot of Mi Cang Mountain, goes down along the west bank of Kuantan River along the east river, passes through Miaoba and retaining wall, and enters Taoyuan Town, Nanjiang County, Sichuan Province. It passes through Lianghekou, Masanglin, Huangnibao, Yanfangli, Baitoutan, and enters the Linshui area of ​​Wangcang County. It passes through Dengjiadi (also known as Dianzishang), Lanchaiba, Qiaowanli, Songbaoshang, Chuantouling, Mengzitan, Kuantanhe, Lianghekou, Dadianli, Yingzuiyan, Maliuba, Lianghuisi, Luduba, Guanziba, Wangcangba (ancient Baizhangguan), with a total length of 350 li, and connects to Jianmen Road through Guangyuan to reach Shudu. Among them, those who ride horses take the road to Bazhong. Due to the dangerous Jingu Rock in Shuanghe, horses cannot pass through the ancient road. They can only go east from Mengzitan, through Guanyinba, Putiya, Daheba, Wulang Temple, Dayingba, Shahezi, and directly to Bazhong. The total length is 240 miles.

Everything was arranged, it was already daybreak, and the chill and dew of early winter made me feel chilled to the bone. Having lived two lives, it was the first time I beat someone with a stick, so I couldn't help being nervous.

Three people are carrying the second child (also known as the second brother on the back of Bashan Mountain). Two of them are carrying square bamboo baskets with a sack on them, and the other one is carrying a "back rack", which is a support made of wooden strips or bamboo, on which the goods are placed, making it very labor-saving to carry. They are holding a dry tobacco in their mouths, wearing straw sandals on their feet, and leaning on a "crutch rake", a kind of crutch in northern Sichuan that can be used to rest and support the basket when carrying things. They are going down the river along the road, and they should be heading towards Shaanxi.

It is estimated that the Great Snow Peak Mountain will be reached in a month, so there are still many people carrying the second child on the road this morning, coming and going, basically one every ten minutes. After eating dry food, we waited for more than an hour, but we didn't see Ma Wenshu coming. Everyone was a little agitated. He told everyone to calm down and wait patiently. Ma Wenshu probably got drunk last night and got up late today. The sun was rising and there were no pedestrians on the road. Then we heard two "dudu" sounds of blowing bamboo tubes. This is Zhang Gou'er's secret signal. Two sounds represent two people traveling together, three sounds represent 3-4 people, and random blowing represents many people.

When everyone heard the whistle, they immediately entered a silent ambush. 20 minutes later, a clean-looking Ma Wenshu wearing a long gown and a hat appeared in sight, followed by a young man, who should be the son of Ma Lao Da's sister-in-law - Mao Erwa. It is said that four or five years ago, Ma Lao Da's sister-in-law came to see her brother-in-law Ma Lao Da, and fell into the river on the way back and drowned. Ma Lao San was ashamed and adopted Mao Erwa as his own son. It is also said that this is Ma Lao San's biological son. Of course, there is no verification, but he does look a bit like Ma Lao Da. Mao Erwa carried a cloth bag on his right side and a long cloth-wrapped pole on his left side, which is probably a weapon.

A flash of light pierced the quiet woods, scaring Ma Wenshu so much that he staggered and took a step back. It was almost too late. Li Long and Hu Laosi immediately jumped up and pulled up the vine net to cover the two men. They ran around and trapped them. People rushed out from behind and pinned them to the ground, covered their heads with hoods and stuffed their mouths.
