Traveling through 1942 with space

Chapter 108 Hostages

"If you don't dare to shoot, we will hand over the food now." Hou Yangmin was so scared when he saw more than a hundred people and dozens of guns on the opposite side that his face turned pale.

"We are being targeted by bandits. Men, throw out all the food and leave everything else behind. Women, carry the babies on your backs and run away quickly." Hou Yangmin came to the group of villagers and whispered.

As Hou Yangmin finished speaking, the crowd began to cry. Everyone was really reluctant to give up the hard-earned food!

"Hurry up, what are you dawdling for!" the bandit shouted.

"Oh! Right away, right away."

As the villagers reluctantly threw the food in front of the team, the crying in the crowd became louder. In contrast, the bandits laughed even more happily.

“Uncle, you can’t trust the bandits. I’ve heard that the bandits in Qin Province are known for being wild and unreasonable. You have to be careful.

If the bandit leader makes other demands later, we will kidnap him and let the women and children escape first.

The town is not far away, and there are soldiers stationed there, so the bandits dare not chase us." Hou Xiaoge got out of the team and came to his uncle and said.

"I understand. I just feel a little sorry for these food and belongings." Hou Yangmin felt his heart bleeding at this moment, and said with red eyes.

……

"Crack! Crack!"

"Why is there so little food? You must be giving it to a beggar!" The bandit leader came to the food with two people fearlessly, turned over the food, and slapped Hou Yangmin in the face.

Seeing Hou Yangmin being slapped, the villagers behind him were furious and wished they could rush over and beat the bandit to death immediately.

The situation was stronger than the person, and Hou Yangmin could only endure the humiliation and pain on his face after being slapped twice.

"Good man! There are many people in the village and we need a lot of food. Apart from some grains, we only have these few dozen dollars left." Hou Yangmin forced himself to take out forty dollars and handed them to the bandit.

"Ok!"

"Damn it, who told you stinky refugees to eat my food? Do you deserve it? Don't you know that the wild boars in Huashan are raised by donkeys and camels?

Since all the food has been eaten by you stinky refugees, I'll use your lives as compensation.

I see you have quite a few pretty women here, so if you pay me thirty of them, I will let you go." The bandit leader with a fierce face looked at the women in the team and said.

"What!"

When Hou Yangmin heard that the other party wanted thirty women, he couldn't help but speak out.

"What, you don't agree?" The bandit leader looked at Hou Yangmin jokingly.

"My dear man, this is too much! Less, less." Hou Yangmin begged for mercy quickly.

"Chief, let's fight these damn bandits."

"I dare not agree to support the people."

"Feed the people!"

……

When the villagers heard Hou Yangmin begging for mercy from the bandits, they became angry and roared at the bandits.

"What? You bastards, are you trying to make trouble?" The bandit leader walked up to Hou Yangmin and was about to kick Da Niu, who roared the loudest.

Hou Yangmin kept his head down, watching the bandit leader come to the front of the team. He slowly put his right hand behind his back and pulled out the pistol that Hou Xiaoge had just handed to him.

"Damn it, let's fight this bastard." Hou Yangmin turned around and grabbed the bandit leader's neck and put the gun against his temple.

With Hou Yangmin's action, the situation, which had been somewhat intense just now, was instantly ignited, and the gunmen in the villagers' team also pointed their guns at the bandits.

The bandits who were dozens of meters away didn't expect that a mere group of refugees would dare to mess with them. They were immediately angry and raised their guns and pulled the triggers.

"Damn it, you must be really brave to put a gun to your Third Master's head.

Shoot if you dare! Otherwise, I will let all the hundreds of people in your village be buried with you." The bandit leader was held at gunpoint by Hou Yangmin, and was stunned for a moment, then continued to speak arrogantly.

"boom!"

Hou Yangmin was not afraid either, and shot the bandit directly at the foot.

"Ah! It hurts so much."

There are many nerves in the feet, and the pain was so severe that cold sweat broke out on the bandit's face.

"Everyone move back. I'm firing continuously. Whoever moves forward I'll shoot him in the crotch." Hou Yangmin threatened the bandits who wanted to move forward.

"Back off quickly, you bastard, do you want to prevent the Third Master from sleeping with a woman?" The bandit leader was sweating coldly in pain, and he cursed at a bandit who hesitated and refused to retreat.

"oh oh!"

In an instant, the three younger brothers brought by the bandit leader were pushed seven or eight meters away.

"Hurry, Danniu, take away this bandit's gun. It's a good gun." Hou Yangmin looked at the two pistols on the bandit leader's waist and hurriedly shouted to Danniu who was not far away.

"middle!"

Da Niu and three other young men swiftly ran up to the bandit. Two of them helped Hou Yangmin hold the bandit down, while the other two confiscated the bandit's pistols.

It was not known whether Daniu had come to his senses or was simply too bold. After confiscating the bandit's pistol, he began to search the bandit's body.

In a short while, the forty silver dollars that Hou Yangmin had just taken out were taken back, and he also found three silver dollars, two gold rings, and a stack of legal currency on the bandit.

"Haha! Well done, Danniu." Hou Yangmin was directly amused by Danniu's amazing operation.

As Hou Yangmin laughed, the villagers also burst into laughter, and the fearful expressions on their faces just now disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Uncle clan leader, I see that the bandit still has two gold teeth! Do you want to knock them out too?" Da Niu said with his eyes brightening as he looked at the bandit leader's grinning face.

"I'm so angry. A soldier can be killed but not humiliated. If you dare to pull out my teeth, I will die. Brothers, avenge me and kill all these "Dutch eggs." The bandit leader was so angry that his face turned green. He shouted,

"Danniu, go back! Let the women and children leave quickly! Those with guns stay behind." Hou Yangmin did not dare to anger the bandit leader, so he and his people took the opportunity to run away.

"Uncle clan leader, where is the food?" Da Niu said reluctantly as he looked at the mountain of food piled up not far away.

"You bastard, it's already this late and you don't want the food anymore." Hou Yangmin was also angry.

When Daniu saw Hou Yangmin getting angry, he was so scared that he loosened his grip and ran away quickly.

Watching his tribesmen running away and only a dozen people with guns left around, Hou Yangmin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good man, take two people with you and follow us. I will let you go when we reach the town ahead, how about that?" Hou Yangmin said, gesturing with the gun in his hand.

"You can't get too close. There are soldiers nearby the town. If you go too close to the barracks, you'll be courting death." The bandit leader's face turned pale due to the pain, but he still negotiated the terms.

"Yes! I will let you go if you are one mile away from the town, but your men cannot be too close to us. They must be at least one hundred meters away from us." Hou Yangmin said vigilantly as he looked at the bandits who were slowly surrounding him from more than thirty meters away.

"Row!"

“Daquan, notify the brothers to stay a hundred meters away.

Gouzi, Tiedan, follow me. If they don't keep their promise, shoot the leader to death." The bandit leader called his two men to his side.

……

In this way, more than a dozen people from Nanjiagou escorted the bandit leader all the way to the town, which was about a mile away. They only released the bandit leader after other people in the village had fled into the town.

"Bah! Damn it! I've been hunting geese all day, and this time I've been caught by a bunch of you 'Dutch eggs'.

You will hide in Luofu Town for the rest of your life! If you dare to come out, I will let you know what it means to be a horse king with three eyes. "The bandit leader said angrily after being released.

"Don't worry about this, at worst we can just go back to the Central Plains." Hou Yangmin shouted to the bandits while retreating.

"Damn it! Shoot them all! Kill those bastards." The bandit leader returned to the team and shouted in grief and anger at the Hou Yangmin people who had already run far away.
