The arrows used in the two-stone bow and the one-stone bow are different, and it is not easy to buy them in stock.

Wang Yuan usually hangs two quivers, each with a capacity of eighteen. He had already shot a quiver, and the remaining arrows were indeed not enough to kill more than forty horse thieves.

Seeing that the horse thieves never came out, Wang Yuan simply dismounted to collect arrows and retrieved a few more from the horse thieves' corpses.

At this moment, the door of the house opened.

More than a dozen horse thieves rushed out, and instead of running towards Wang Yuan, they hid behind several carts, took out the gold and silver in the carts and put them on themselves. Immediately, the gold and silver were thrown into the courtyard, and in the end, each horse thief had at least a few catties of goods on him.

Wang Yuan sneered and withdrew a few arrows, mounted on his horse again, and filled the rhino bow with the light of the fire.

"Whoosh!"

An arrow was fired, and a horse thief with half of his head exposed, was directly killed by the arrow on the spot.

The horse thieves were even more panicked, and after everyone had carried the gold and silver, the big boss immediately ordered to charge towards Wang Yuan.

Although Wang Yuan has always been very reckless, he is reckless with brains, and he will not do stupid things until he has to do something stupid. These were more than forty horse thieves, not more than forty bandits, and Wang Yuan was not wearing armor.

The horse thief rushed in, and Wang Yuan fled, pumping cold and firing arrows as he fled.

The horses raised by the people and herdsmen are mainly supplied to the troops stationed in Beijing, and they can only reach the level of spare war horses, where can they be compared with the best water horses?

The horse thieves charged violently, not only could not catch up with Wang Yuan, but the distance was pulled farther and farther.

After being shot several times in a row, the big boss finally calmed down and shouted: "Retreat south and go to General Liu!" ”

"Second brother, we're here!" Zhou Chong shouted on horseback.

Zhou Chong, Zou Mu and their three scholars tied up the thieves who took advantage of the fire to rob outside the city, and handed them over to the assistant police in charge of public security.

And Liu Liu and Liu Qi, who made the rebellion this time, used to be full-time assistant policemen and were hired by the government for money. The Liu brothers have made countless meritorious contributions and have absolutely positive energy, but they were forced to rebel by Liu Jin's relatives.

Wang Yuan did not immediately chase after the horse bandits, but after Zhou Chong came over, he instructed: "Help me recover the arrows on the corpse, and by the way, collect the goods on the corpse, and then return to the inn immediately." Be silent! ”

The horse thief is certainly hateful, and Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, is also hateful, and I don't know how many people in the suburbs of Beijing have been destroyed.

took the opportunity to take away Zhang Heling's goods, Wang Yuan did not have the slightest psychological burden.

If these horse thieves didn't kill innocents indiscriminately, Wang Yuan didn't even bother to care, and let them rob Zhang Heling's Zhuangzi.

Although Emperor Hongzhi is the lord of Zhongxing, he is too indulgent to the nobles.

Those honorable relatives, civil officials and eunuchs, who wantonly occupied the people's land around the capital, were all approved by the Hongzhi Emperor. This way of asking for land has been around for a long time, and it is reported by the magnates: "There are countless wastelands in such and such an area, and it is a pity that no one cultivates them, so Your Majesty might as well give it to me to reclaim it." ”

Then the emperor agreed, and the nobles were ordered to fish and meat in the village, and there was a large area in a circle, and the people in the area either fled or stayed as tenants for the magnates.

Emperor Hongzhi had a weak personality, and when the magnates invited Tian, he agreed, and the surrounding areas of the capital were not lightly treated.

In addition, Hongzhi favors Queen Zhang, and Queen Zhang is a calf protector, and the two uncles are simply lawless. When Zhengde succeeded to the throne, no matter who was in power, Empress Dowager Zhang's words were the most effective, and Zhang Heling even said that he would eradicate the first assistant Li Dongyang, just because Li Dongyang stopped him from eating the people.

Zhou Chong and the scholar stayed to clean up the battlefield, and one returned to the inn with more than ten catties of gold and silver.

Wang Yuan and Zou Mu fought to catch up, but Wang Yuan was fast, and after a short time, he opened up the distance, and gradually caught up with the relatively backward horse thief.

In the wilderness, the lights are blind.

The horse thieves were all holding torches in a hurry, and Wang Yuan couldn't see clearly, anyway, he could just point to the torches and shoot.

Fortunately, the official road in the north is wide and flat, otherwise Wang Yuan really wouldn't dare to chase it, in case a horse misses its front hoof, and it is funny if it falls to death inexplicably.

"Whoosh!"

Another thief fell from his horse with an arrow, and screamed in the night.

The big boss was shocked and angry, and scolded: "This bird doesn't give people a way to live, and he will be cut by a thousand knives in the future!" ”

After running out of twenty miles at the end of the day, there were only thirty-three horse thieves left, and their horses were also running out of breath, while Ah Hei under Wang Yuan's crotch was only panting slightly.

Suddenly, the horse thief and Wang Yuan stopped at the same time.

A town without walls in front of it is now on fire. The fire in the manor on the outskirts of Beijing was incomparable to the fire in front of him, because the whole town had already burned.

If the horse thieves are Li ghosts, then it is Li Kui who set fire to the town, and he must belong to the rebellious army under Liu Liu and Liu Qi.

The idiom "flowing in the flow" came out because of Liu Liu Liu Qi.

The strength of their Doma is that they are easy to fight for thousands of miles, and their disadvantage is that they are not good at attacking cities. Therefore, they will pick on towns and rural areas, kill the old and the young, occupy women, and coerce the young and strong, and they will inevitably burn down the houses wherever they go. The people were homeless, and either rebelled with the rebels or were killed by the rebels, and those who escaped were considered lucky.

"It's General Liu's team!" The horse thieves were pleasantly surprised.

The infantry coerced by Liu Liu and Liu Qi were besieging Boye, Raoyang, Nangong and other prefectures and counties, and the nearest was only 500 miles away from the capital. The cavalry scattered and plundered everywhere, and this one actually ran twenty miles south of the capital division, and burned the town to the ground.

Wang Yuan was extremely shocked, this is the capital of the Ming Dynasty!

Who told Wang Yuan not to read history books, in history, Liu Liu, Liu Qi and the Shandong rebels were very arrogant, forcing Beijing three times, passing through Nanjing three times, wandering through eight provinces, and the remnants even went to Guizhou to fight guerrillas.

There is no way, Ma Zheng has made a lot of cavalry, and the speed of the flow is too terrifying.

Wang Yuan no longer pursued, got off the horse, took out a handful of tartary buckwheat, let the horse chew to recover his strength, and then took out a water bladder to give the horse salt water.

Not long after, Zou Mu rode a horse and rushed over, and when he saw the flames soaring into the sky, he suddenly exclaimed: "Is it really Liu Liu's Liu Qi chaotic army?" ”

"Very likely." Wang Yuan nodded and said.

Zou Mu hesitated: "What should I do?" ”

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "You immediately go back to the capital to report the news, and I will stay and observe for a while." ”

"Good!"

Zou Mu knew that the military situation was urgent, and he didn't talk nonsense, so he immediately turned back and went to the capital to report the news.

As for the horse thieves, they went to the outside of the town to join the rebels.

Two months ago, the thief leader Qi Yanming was arrested and imprisoned, and Yang Hu, Liu Liu, and Liu Qi robbed him from prison. Liu Liu and Liu Qi immediately became famous, and within a month, thousands of Hebei horse thieves, bandits, and robbers took the initiative to go to the three of them.

The previous gang of horse thieves also planned to get a vote in the suburbs of Beijing, and then immediately went south to join the rebellious army.

And just last month, the rebel army captured the official pastures of Xiongzhou and Bazhou, obtained countless war horses, and began to expand wildly.

As dawn came, the fire in the town had not yet been extinguished.

Wang Yuan waited for the horse's strength to recover, rode forward again, and finally saw the details clearly.

This is a small riverside town, and when Wang Yuan went to Beijing to take the exam, he also got off the boat to buy salt for the horses in the town. The once prosperous town has been burned to the ground, and the rebels are moving the looted goods and women onto the ships.

There is a camp outside the town, all of which are young and strong people in the town who have been coerced, and they are being guarded by the cavalry of the rebel army at this moment.

Wang Yuan beat his horse and galloped to two hundred paces in front of the camp, and shouted: "The thief head came out to speak!" ”

The big boss of the horse thief immediately ran to a young man and said, "General Zhao, this guy has been chasing and killing me all the way to this point." ”

The young man's name was Zhao Pan, wearing a suit of leather armor, and he sneered: "A scholar, single-handedly, actually chased dozens of you people and horses for twenty miles? ”

The big boss was ashamed and argued: "This guy is fast, and his archery skills are superb. We chased him and ran, just pumping cold and releasing arrows, and no one could stand it? ”

"Hmph, I'm going to meet him!"

Zhao Pan rode out of the camp, followed by more than 20 horseback soldiers, and he shouted: "Who is ahead?" ”

Wang Yuan shouted: "I am Wang Yuan, a person from Guizhou." You wait for burning, killing and looting, hurting the heavens and reason, and there is no king's law, so you don't surrender quickly! ”

"Hahahaha!"

"This guy is stupid when he reads books."

"Wow, it's a lifter, such a big official."

“……”

The thieves laughed and pointed at Wang Yuan for all kinds of mockery.

There were more than 300 people in this rebellious army, and they were all on horseback, and Wang Yuan single-handedly made them surrender.

Zhao Pan smiled and said loudly: "Wang Xianggong, I have also studied for a few days, although I have not entered school, but I am also a child. You and I are both scholars, listen to my advice, don't give your life to that faint gentleman of Zhengde anymore! ”

Wang Yuan scolded: "I am not working for the emperor, but for the people of the world." You are a thief, you are a child, you are oppressed by corrupt officials, how can you slaughter people for no reason? This town is adjacent to the main road of water and land, which was originally prosperous and peaceful, but it was burned into a white land! ”

Zhao Pan was still a little ashamed after all, his face was slightly red, and he shouted: "Wang Xianggong, my brother Zhao Qi is just a talent, and he can be a military advisor in the ranks of the righteous army." If you are willing to serve the righteous army, it is not impossible for him to become the prime minister of the country one day. Think again! ”

"A man of merit and fame is a thief, and his sin is unforgivable!" Wang Yuan was furious.

Xiucai rebelled, and it didn't work out for ten years, but if Xiucai became a thief, he would inevitably be guilty.

Yang Hu, Liu Liu, and Liu Qi were not at all at the beginning of the incident, and they could only be regarded as large-scale horses with a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and they were always beaten by the officials and soldiers.

But since Xiucai Zhao Qi became a thief, he immediately had a strategic plan and began to coerce the homeless people to occupy Beizhili Prefecture.

What does this mean?

It means that a large number of horse bandits who just rob and run, and the homeless people in one county after another, have joined the gang, and their social destructive power has increased exponentially.

If Liu Liu and Liu Qi were forced to rebel by the eunuchs, it is understandable from a reasonable point of view.

But Zhao Qi has not suffered from the oppression of the government, and this guy still leads the rice of the imperial court. Just because he and his family were hiding from the war and were discovered by the rebels, who wanted to defile his wife and daughter, Zhao Qi rose up to kill and wound the two, and was captured alive.

Zhao Qi made a generous statement and convinced the leader of the rebellious army, so he became a military advisor from a thief.

Moreover, his two younger brothers, Zhao Pan and Zhao Hao, also all became leaders of the rebellious army from thieves.

Zhao Pan saw that Wang Yuan was still scolding, and suddenly sneered: "Divide two teams of 100 people and capture this person for me!" ”

The big boss suddenly reminded: "General Zhao beware, this guy is pulling a bow, and his archery skills are extremely accurate." ”

Zhao Pan looked at it from afar, and sure enough, he saw Wang Yuan aiming with an arrow, and immediately smiled: "Haha, he is at least two hundred steps away from here, can he still shoot me with an arrow?" ”
