Chapter 297 Qiu Yongchao

"Nonsense!" Wu Fan said with a cold face: "It will be very dangerous here. Your injuries have not fully recovered yet. Go back immediately! I don't need your protection!"

There are only more than 60 people on Wu Fan's side who can fight, and the number of people who can fight on the enemy should be those young and strong, about two or three thousand people. The others are probably just following to show off their strength.

But even so, the number of people who can fight on the other side is dozens of times that of his side. Although he has traps, weapons and protective gear on his side, plus various trump cards in his hand, Wu Fan still has the strength to fight, but there is definitely still danger, and it is still great.

Luo Yue's injuries have not fully recovered yet, and Wu Fan doesn't want her to take risks.

"I won't go back!" Luo Yue said, with a firm tone.

"My words are useless, right?" Wu Fan frowned.

Luo Yue's face was slightly aggrieved and stubborn: "I won't go back!"

The tone was still firm, but the voice was much smaller than before, as if she was not confident enough and was afraid that Wu Fan would get angry.

Wu Fan had a headache. He didn't expect Luo Yue to be so stubborn. If he forced her to go back, she would probably sneak over to join the fight when the fight started. Instead of letting her sneak over alone, it would be better to keep her by his side.

"Okay, you can stay, but you have to stay by my side and don't run around." Wu Fan reminded.

"Yes!" Luo Yue replied with a happy face.

At this time, the Snow Cloud Cat appeared, passed through the crowd, jumped on Wu Fan's shoulder, and looked at the busy people outside the village curiously.

Wu Fan turned his head and looked at the Snow Cloud Cat and said, "Little guy, it's dangerous here, go back to the forest in the back mountain."

These days, the Snow Cloud Cat was in the village during the day, and when Wu Fan returned to reality at night, the little guy would return to the forest in the back mountain.

However, the little guy was like Luo Yue, and did not listen to Wu Fan's words. He still stayed on his shoulder and had no intention of going back.

Another troublesome guy.

Wu Fan sighed in his heart, but he didn't force the snow cloud cat to go back. It was very smart and flexible, and it was not a human. If there was a fight, it would definitely hide. The soldiers of the rebel army would not chase a pet to kill it.

About four or five miles away from the Hermit Village, there was a team of four or five thousand people walking slowly. Most of the people in the team were walking, and only about ten people were riding horses. The whole team was loose and crooked. It didn't look like a march, but a spring outing.

This team was the rebel team wandering around Qingyuan County. They had looted three or four villages near Qingyuan County, and the team's strength was gradually strengthened.

The leader of the team was a middle-aged man named Qiu Yongchao. He was burly and strong. He used to be a guard of a wealthy family. He practiced external kung fu and could not get close to five or six people. Later, he was found stealing the property of the owner and was forced to flee.

Nowadays, the whole Yanfeng country is in chaos, and Qiu Yongchao is unwilling to be lonely. He uses his bravery to force some people to join his team, and then robs and loots, and the team slowly grows.

After the team grew, Qiu Yongchao's ambitions also slowly increased. In the past, when he encountered the encirclement and suppression of the regular army, he would hide if he could. However, after he became stronger, he actually had the idea of ​​fighting the regular army.

As a result, his team was defeated miserably, and he was forced to flee with his team. Fortunately, the regular army did not seem to have the intention to kill them all, which allowed them to escape. After a while, they fled to the vicinity of Qingyuan County.

Although he was defeated miserably, Qiu Yongchao's ambitions did not die out. He felt that the reason why he could not beat the regular army was because he was not well prepared, his soldiers' combat quality was not high enough, and his weapons and equipment were also lacking. Therefore, he wanted to capture Qingyuan County, rob the wealth inside, build his own army, and increase the strength of his army.

However, the gates of Qingyuan County were always closed, and he had no siege equipment, so he could only give up temporarily. He was unwilling to leave, so he began to rob the villages and towns around Qingyuan County. On the one hand, he robbed food and money to feed his team, and on the other hand, he trained the combat effectiveness of the army. When the time was right, he would attack Qingyuan County.

The villages and towns under Qingyuan County had weak defense capabilities, which allowed Qiu Yongchao to rob some things, but the idea of ​​training the team's combat effectiveness was not realized, because he did not encounter any decent resistance in those villages and towns.

This made him feel sorry, and he also despised the defense of these villages and towns. He planned to rob all the villages and towns under Qingyuan County to strengthen the team's strength and force the defenders in Qingyuan County to come out.

Today, they came to the vicinity of the Hermit Village. They did not come directly to the Hermit Village. Qiu Yongchao chose the target completely randomly.

"Everyone, hurry up. Haven't you eaten enough?" Qiu Yongchao was angry as he watched the team dispersing slowly.

His team had no problem dealing with ordinary villages and towns, but they were no match for the regular army. How could he realize his ambition?

No, after taking down Qingyuan County, he must teach these bastards a lesson. They had been allowed to have an easy life before.

"There is a village a few miles ahead. After we take it down, we will rest there and stop traveling today." Qiu Yongchao said.

When everyone heard that they didn't have to hurry, they immediately became energetic.

These people were just ordinary farmers before, they had not been trained and had no combat skills. After walking for a day, they complained and didn't want to walk anymore. Now they heard that they could rest in the village ahead, so they naturally had no objection.

Moreover, there was food and drink in the village, and they could enjoy it there, which was worth their long journey.

As for whether they could capture the village ahead, they were not worried at all. They had captured many villages before. These remote villages had no decent defense force at all. They could easily rush in with a charge, and the people inside would kneel down and surrender. They were like judges in hell, who could decide their life and death.

That feeling was wonderful!

These people had completely lost themselves in the robberies again and again. They forgot that not long ago, they were also one of those who knelt down and begged for mercy. They were also ordinary farmers in the village and were oppressed. Now, with their changed identities, they have forgotten their previous selves.
