From the moment the bandit coalition entered the city, the fall of the Black Shrine became a simple matter of time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After the vanguard army joined up with Maier and the others, Xiaoxiao quietly let go of the Great Witch and Ercao Seventeen. Since the Great Witch hadn't woken up yet, Ercao Seventeen was also seriously injured and had difficulty moving, so Xiaoxiao had to take someone on a run herself.

She took a few of her trusted men, found ropes and planks, and carried them to the north wall while Mel was carrying the guards away, and fell down carefully.

Xiaoxiao prepared food for the two of them for three days, and there was a small stream not far north of the Black Shrine if it was water. Xiaoxiao asks Ercao Seventeen to wait for her and Mel by the stream with the Great Witch, and promises that the two will find a way to let them live a normal life after this.

After Xiaoxiao returned, the two deliberately sounded the alarm, saying that the Great Witch had escaped, and sent someone out to find it. Maier and Xiaoxiao run to a battlefield and find the bodies of two Zhu witches who had died in battle. One of them was wounded in the left rib and the other had lost his right arm, so they put the masks of the Great Witch and Ercao Seventeen on the corpse's face, and brought the corpses to the camp, announcing that the Great Witch and Ercao Seventeen had been killed.

While searching for a suitable corpse, Maier asked with a smile, "Why are you still so good to her?" ”

Xiaoxiao replied, "Although she is a bastard and killed my parents, she has raised me for eleven years after all." Since it has been decided not to kill her, it is also appropriate to return her favor. ”

When Maier heard this, he couldn't help but take Xiaoxiao's hand and take her into his arms and hug her for a while. Because of this incident, the two delayed a little time, and almost failed to make it back before Yishan appeared in the camp.

After realizing that the official army had gained absolute superiority, the three and five factions, which had not yet engaged the bandit coalition army, immediately sent envoys in the hope of surrendering to the official army.

The Witch Maiden's surrender was on the simple condition that they hoped that the officials and soldiers would be lenient with them, preferably acquittal of all. How could Yishan and Euris negotiate terms with the outlaws? However, in order to reduce their own losses, the two pretended to agree to their request, and told the witches to lay down their weapons and walk out of the camp.

The witch is not a fool, how can she obediently lay down her weapon and walk out of the camp? Yishan and Euris saw that the evil witch was not fooled, so they could only lead their army to launch a strong attack on them.

The first to be attacked were the five factions with relatively weak defensive strength. In order to reduce their own losses, Yishan and Euris used the prisoners captured from the four factions as meat shields to open the way for the attacking infantry. After using this tactic, Yishan and Euris paid even greater losses.

When the chief witch of the five factions saw that the official army used the captives as meat shields, they told their subordinates that if you are captured, you will also be sent to the three factions to be used as meat shields. Hearing this, the shrine maidens made up their minds to fight to the death with the official army, and in the end, no one surrendered, including the chief shrine maiden.

After this, Yishan and Euris wanted to let Myer's evil witches attack the camp guarded by the three factions, and since these people had already taken refuge in Myr, Maier would not let them die. Besides, Maier had already promised them that they would be free after the Black Shrine was destroyed, so he decisively rejected the request of the two.

Incidentally, after joining forces with the main force, Mair took the time to change back into his clothes and put on leather armor that was easy to move around, and was no longer dressed as a woman.

Mel's actions touched the wicked witches, who believed that she was worthy of trust, and swore allegiance to him together. In this way, Maier truly has a force loyal to him.

After everyone took the oath, Xiaoxiao stood up and said to everyone at the right time.

"Since you have pledged your allegiance to Myr, Myr's enemies are your enemies! My enemy too! Now, the men of the three factions are stationed at the Great Witch's residence, blocking Myr's progress! I'm willing to take them out myself! Who would like to come along?! ”

Xiaoxiao and her subordinates did not swear allegiance to Maier, and everyone saw that Xiaoxiao, an outsider, was willing to die for Maier, so naturally there was no reason to retreat, so they collectively stepped forward. Seeing that the army was available, Maier was reluctant to send them to attack the camps of the three factions.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that he is afraid that Xiaoxiao will be injured in the battle.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. If you back down at this time, these people will never be able to go to war again. ”

At that moment, the sound of laughter appeared in Mel's ears. After listening to the words of laughter, Mel clenched his fist into a crisp sound and said loudly to the crowd.

"I'll go with you!"

When everyone saw that Maier was going into battle in person, their morale was even higher, and cheers rang out like a tide. After this, Maier led his men and Xiaoxiao to attack the camp where the three factions were strong.

When Yishan and Euris heard the news of Maier's battle, they led their troops to kill the camp guarded by the three factions without thinking about it. Under the fierce offensive of the three-way army, in just a quarter of an hour, the battle ended with the victory of the coalition army of bandits. The three factions of the Shrine Maiden surrendered to the bandit coalition under the leadership of the Shrine Maiden, and at this point, the Battle of the Black Shrine officially ended.

After the battle, the bandit coalition began to clean up the battlefield. Xiaoxiao, who grew up at the Black Shrine, knew that the good things were in the Black Guard's warehouse, and immediately asked Maier to gather his troops and go with him to occupy the Black Guard's warehouse.

There are a total of eight warehouses guarded by the Black Guards, five of which are for food, two for weapons, and one for the Great Witch's personal property. The grain warehouse is nothing to look at, the weapon warehouse was opened by the people of the three factions and took away some of the weapons, but there are also a lot of good things in the remaining weapons.

Mel found the twelve Dugu muskets in the second weapons warehouse, and because they were hand-by-hand things, Mel recognized them at a glance.

Belch...... How did these muskets get here?

Mel was puzzled.

All the cash was stored in the Great Shrine Maiden's warehouse, which filled a dozen sacks, some of which contained Ira money and some of which contained Taeyong money. If the Great Witch hadn't bought the twelve muskets from Man Yun, Maier would have seen more sacks. In addition to the cash, all that remains here is the jars that occupy nearly eighty percent of the space in the warehouse, which seem to have been untouched for a long time, and which are covered with a thick layer of dust and cobwebs.

Maier asked someone to bring out a jar of wine, opened the seal, and the rich aroma of wine immediately spread. Although Mel drank, he didn't understand wine, but even so, after smelling it, he judged that it must be old wine.

Maier put his finger in the jar, dipped some wine on his tongue and tasted it, and the pungency immediately made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Well...... According to the wine classification of the Letting people, this should be regarded as a spicy high-end strong wine.

How did the Ira people classify wine? Belch...... It seems that what is brewed and what is brewed, I can't remember, in short, it is a very high-end wine, if you sell it, you have to sell it for a three-time Tairong money, right?

Kiki should like this wine, so I'll give her this jar first, it should be enough for her to drink.

As for the other two maids, Maier decided to give them a bonus and let them buy something they liked.

The three maids had been placed in the rear by Meier to take care of the wounded and did not participate in the battles at the front. But this did not mean that the three maids would have an easy time, because they were the only three who remained in the rear to take care of the wounded. When the four and five factions attacked the camp of Qicao and Eighteen, the defenders paid a certain number of casualties, and after the battle, nearly twenty wounded were sent to the rear and handed over to the care of three maids. After meeting with the main force, the burden on the three maids was slightly lighter.

For the rest of his subordinates, Mel is also to be rewarded. However, since they are newcomers, the amount of the bonus is definitely much lower than that of the three maids, at most 50 Wen Tairong money per person.

After taking stock of the loot, Mel finds Xiaoxiao and asks her what to do with the loot.

"Of course I took it myself!"

Smile's eyes widened and she looked at Mel with an expression of disbelief.

"Do you still want to split equally with those two women? Even if you do, they won't want it. ”

"Well, that's right. What about you? What about your people? ”

"That's easy to say."

Now that there were no outsiders around the two, Xiaoxiao leaned into Maier's arms without any scruples.

"It's all yours, but you and I and my people are raised, okay?"

Mel wrapped his arms around Xiaoxiao's body and put his hands on her waist without moving half a minute down.

"Won't they have an opinion?"

"Of course not, they're diehards I've spent years cultivating. They all know about our relationship, and secretly they must regard you as the second master, how can they have an opinion? ”

In fact, it is not only Xiaoxiao's subordinates who know the relationship between the two, Qicao 18 saw the two kissing, and he can be regarded as one of the insiders. But she kept it in her heart and didn't tell anyone about it.

"Uh, the second master or something...... Why does that sound so awkward? ”

"If you listen to it too much, it won't be awkward!"

Smile looked up and grinned, and Mel couldn't help but scratch the bridge of her nose lightly.

"It's just that you're crooked."

After the battle, Yishan and Euris kept looking for Maier and his troops, but could not find them. It was later reported that Meier's troops appeared to be heading east, and the two men headed east with their guards.

When they were about to arrive at the Blackguard's warehouse, the two of them were spotted by the sentry who had placed them in Xiaoxiao's place, and the sentry hurriedly ran to report to the two who were hugging each other.

As soon as Xiaoxiao heard that Yishan and Euris were coming, she immediately jumped out of Meier's arms and tidied up her clothes. The two glanced at each other, then kept their current distance and walked in the direction of Yishan and Euris.

Maier truthfully explained the situation of the Blackguard's warehouse to Yishan and Urris, just like Xiaoxiao said before, the two had no intention of competing with Maier for the spoils of war. The two even gaged Mel from the very beginning, preventing him from mentioning the equal division of the spoils.

Yishan said: "There are a lot of wounded in my troops, and it is troublesome enough to transport them back to Liangyue City, and I can't bring too many things with me." ”

"I don't have so many wounded on my side, but I've negotiated with Yishan that the captives are mine, and I'm not interested in anything else," said Julis. ”

In fact, what the two said was not all polite words. This time the bandit coalition is an expedition out of the city, and what can be brought back is limited. The soldiers have looted a lot of loot on the battlefield, and there are still many weapons left behind on the battlefield. After that, Meir's men went to the battlefield to loot a large circle, taking away all the weapons they could take, but even so, there were still a lot of weapons that could not be taken away on the battlefield.

The sheer amount of loot left Maier with no ability to transport the contents of the Blackguard's warehouse back to Liangyue City, and even if he could afford to transport them back, he would not have a place to store them. Because of the loot, Maier was unable to leave immediately, and Yishan and Euris did not leave because of Maier.

The presence of the coalition forces forced them to face a new problem - corpses.

On 20 August, the anti-bandit coalition officially began the work of cleaning up the bodies.

The coalition forces dug a pit outside the east gate of the Black Shrine and threw the body of the witch into the pit to bury it. The bodies of the friendly soldiers could not be transported away, so the coalition forces opened a cemetery outside the east gate and buried the bodies of the friendly soldiers on the spot.

While everyone was busy, Maier and Xiaoxiao quietly left the Black Shrine and went to the stream where the Great Witch and Ercao Seventeen were hiding.
