The Nanhua faction was indeed very cunning, and told Zhu Tong to come to Tuzhuang on the fifth day of September, but he came two days early.

Moreover, it was chosen in the middle of the night on a dark and windy night, when people are most sleepy and sleep the most soundly and sweetly, and ordinary noises will never wake them up.

This is of course very beneficial to the attack of the Lake Bandits.The party who was attacked didn't realize it. Wouldn't it be easy for the bandits to enter Zhuangzi, and the result was simply unimaginable.

The Lake Bandits of the Nanhua faction really had the characteristics of a big gang. The sky was so dark that they didn't even light a torch, and they went directly to the shore in the dark.

Xiao Yan thought to himself: These lake bandits are indeed well-trained, it seems that this kind of business has been done a lot.

Hearing the sound, the boat of the lake bandits over there should have already docked, and there were whispers from time to time, so don't think they were about to get off the boat.

Xiao Yan hurried back to the woods to join the crowd, and he ordered in a low voice: "Listen up, everyone. After a while, all the lake bandits will go ashore and walk a certain distance. Listen to my order and light the torches and throw them among them. Then we will attack quickly. Shoot three rounds with crossbow arrows, and then fight in close quarters."

Everyone responded softly, and then quietly waited for the arrival of this group of lake bandits.

Not long after, the sound of dense footsteps came, and the target gradually approached.

Xiao Yan's heart was surprisingly calm. He was waiting for the enemy to get closer, and then he finally shouted: "Light it up!"

Zhang Xiaojia, who had already made preparations, quickly lit the torches soaked in alcohol. The originally dark forest was illuminated by dozens of torches, as bright as day.

Xiao Yan: "Throw it away!"

The torches were thrown out one after another, drawing a beautiful arc in the night sky, like shooting stars, cutting through the sky and falling towards the crowd in front of them.

These lake bandits obviously didn't expect this scene, they panicked and dodged the torches falling from the sky.

Suddenly, there was a chirping sound like birdsong, and then the panicked lake bandits immediately stabilized their positions, gradually gathered their formation, and bravely hacked at the torches with their scimitars in their hands.

It's a pity that the torch was already covered with alcohol. Although some were shot down to the ground, or cut in half by a scimitar, as long as the torch was contaminated, all of them were quickly set on fire.

At first they didn't panic, thinking that the fire would be extinguished with just a few swats.

Who knew that the fire was beyond their knowledge and could not be extinguished. Some of those who tried to put out the fire with their hands were even set on fire.

However, Xiao Yan was just about to order everyone to rush out, but he was shocked by the appearance of those people in the flames, short clothes, shorts and big straw sandals, and some were simply a T-shaped underpants, and a short pig tail on the head, and the one just now With a bird cry, he blurted out: "Japanese pirates?"

Su Yu, who was closest to him, asked, "Master, what are Japanese pirates?"

Xiao Yan had no intention of answering, the opportunity to fight was fleeting, his eyes flashed coldly and he shouted: "Everyone follow me, kill all these bastards!"

After finishing speaking, he rushed out first, and Su Yu hurriedly followed behind.

The others had already grown impatient for waiting, and killed them one by one.

Under the light of the fire, the group of Japanese pirates had nowhere to hide. Xiao Yan rushed to the front, and the crossbow arrows found the target and fired three arrows in a row, and the three Japanese pirates fell to the ground in response.

Xiao Yan put away his crossbow arrows, drew out his saber, and slashed with the Japanese pirates who were coming up.

Su Yu had never seen his young master be so brave, he secretly followed and protected Xiao Yan while admiring him secretly.

These Japanese pirates visually estimated that there were more than 300 people. They were attacked by torches, causing more than a dozen non-combat attrition. Then they were shot and killed about 100 people by three rounds of crossbow arrows, leaving about 200 people.

If it was an ordinary lake bandit, they would have already dispersed like birds and beasts, but it's a pity that this group of Japanese bandits are desperadoes.

After the Japanese pirates withstood the initial panic, they had stabilized their positions, and they fought with Xiao Yan's side.

Gradually, the Japanese pirates have surrounded Xiao Yan and the others.

Fortunately, although the Japanese swords of the Japanese pirates were sharp, the armor on Xiao Yan's side was even stronger. Up to now, no one has died in battle, only one who wore the iron armor suffered some minor injuries.

Seeing that he was surrounded, Xiao Yan shouted: "Everyone, don't be afraid, our armor is strong, they can't do anything to us."

Zhang Xiaojia: "Master, we are not cowards, it's rare to have such a good time killing, how can we be afraid?"

Xu Dongqing laughed and said: "Besides, we still have this armor. Although their knives are powerful, they can't hurt us."

Su Yu: "It's a pity that many of our brothers' weapons were cut off by their knives. Fortunately, not all of them have such sharp knives."

Xiao Yan: "I underestimated. I didn't expect the Nanhua faction to invite Japanese pirates."

Zhu Tong: "Impossible, these people were definitely not invited by the Nanhua faction."

This is not the time to discuss these, because the Japanese pirates' attacks are getting more and more violent.

Liu Bing and others in Zhuangzi had already seen the flames in the distance, but Xiao Yan hadn't sent anyone as agreed.

Liu Youcai was in a hurry. Xiao Yan had arranged him to stay in Liu Bing's barracks for the past few days. He called it exercise, "Liu Qianhu, when shall we encircle them?"

Liu Bing: "According to the agreement, if Mr. Xiao doesn't send someone, it means that the time is not ripe yet, we have to wait."

In fact, he didn't know that Xiao Yan didn't intend to use them as a backup force at all. The mere four hundred lake bandits, armed to the teeth with armor and triple crossbows, were not a piece of cake.

Liu Youcai: "I've heard the sound of beating and killing over there. It must have been a hand-to-hand combat. Do we still have to wait?"

Liu Bing: "That's right, that's what Young Master Xiao ordered."

Liu Youcai became anxious: "I said Liu Bing, you are not afraid of death, are you?"

Liu Bing was also angry: "Do you think I'm not in a hurry? Don't I want to kill a few lake bandits? But do you understand that the military order is like a mountain? No wonder the young master wants you to come to me to practice."

Liu Youcai: "You..."

*********************
The fight by the lake was still going on fiercely, and there were already several wounded on Xiao Yan's side, all of them were wearing iron armor without exception.

However, the Japanese pirates' side was even more tragic. Among the remaining 200 people, more than 100 people fell, and there were more than [-] people who were capable of fighting.

At this time, Xiao Yan saw a familiar figure, that Li Bin who had been dismissed as a scholar.
