Chapter 175: Headless Tomb, with a Word Tablet

The three cliffs were broken, and the small Franc machine gun was sent to the gate of the village, and after the scattered bullets of the five guns, the three cliff thieves inside were already defeated.

Then, Luo Da Niu single-handedly went in and chased the routs and slashed them.

Qin Chuan led the red-clothed attendants and Emperor Guan's army to swarm in, but anyone who still had weapons in their hands was cut down to the ground.

When passing through the General's Cave, Qin Chuan saw Leopard Five leaning weakly against the entrance of the cave.

"I gave you a chance."

Qin Chuan strode up with a knife.

"Huh."

Leopard Wu laughed miserably and shook his head with difficulty: "Wang is willing to bow down, just ask Lord Qin to give him a good time." ”

"What's your full name?"

"The King's Minister."

"Your head is still of some use, I will have someone build you a headless tomb and set up a monument for you."

"Thank you, Lord Qin."

After saying that, the leopard five exhaled a long breath of turbidity, then leaned forward and took the initiative to stretch his neck.

Qin Chuan raised his knife and cleanly cut off his head.

"Remember to set up a tomb for him, and write his name on the tombstone, called Wang Zhichen, right, Wang Gang?"

"That guy took dozens of people to guard the edge of the cliff at the top of the mountain, and said that if he didn't see the big boss, he wouldn't descend."

"Heh, then let's go meet him."

When Qin Chuan led the red-clothed attendants to the top of the mountain, he saw Luo Daniu leading more than a hundred imperial troops to surround a large rock close to the cliff.

There were more than forty three cliff thieves on the rocks, most of them trembled, but they did not put down the weapons in their hands, and Wang Gang, who was the leader, had a fierce face, wielding the waist knife in his hand from time to time.

Seeing Qin Chuan coming, his face softened, and he clasped his fists and raised his voice: "Lord Qin, Wang is willing to surrender, I don't know if Lord Qin can give Wang a hundred household jobs?" ”

"Huh."

Qin Chuan smiled dumbly, and then took a flintlock pistol with good ammunition from the hand of a Guan Emperor army next to him.

In history, Wang Gang and Bao Wu, when they were recruited by Xu Dingchen in the seventh year of Chongzhen and deceived to Taiyuan, and set up a banquet to entertain them, they suddenly ordered to kill left and right, and cut off their heads at the banquet.

No wonder they would be stupid enough to be deceived into going to Huangquan Road, it turned out that this Wang Gang's mind was full of water.

is dying, and he still wants to ask him for an official position.

"You...... What are you doing? ”

Seeing that Qin Chuan suddenly pointed his gun at him, Wang Gang suddenly panicked.

"I've already given you a chance."

When the words fell, Qin Chuan pulled the trigger, and with a "bang", Wang Gang fell to the ground in response.

"None of them will be left."

Qin Chuan handed the flintlock pistol back to his subordinates, and then walked towards the barracks of the cottage.

Soon a volley of gunfire and screams rang out behind him.

There were less than 500 thieves in the three cliffs, more than 100 were hacked to death, and about 300 people surrendered.

There were a lot of women and children on the mountain, especially so many women that Qin Chuan was almost stunned, there were more than 700 of them, most of them were family members of the rogues, and a small number were robbed.

At the beginning, Wang Gangbao gathered more than 2,000 rogues, many of whom brought their families, when Wang Gangbao Wu led his troops to attack Mengjiazhuang, these family members transported the money, grain, cloth, livestock, etc. they had stolen all the way to the three cliffs, and built barracks here.

Most of the more than 2,000 rogues died in Lou Fu, Wang Gang and Bao Wu did not dare to kill the old and weak and children, for fear of chilling the hearts of their subordinates, and these family members survived.

In the end, these people fell into the hands of Qin Chuan again.

Although the families of these people died in their own hands, Qin Chuan still accepted all the orders.

More than 700 women can not only farm and weave, but also solve the problem of annoying men and women to a certain extent, and the elderly and children can also do some work without being tired.

He is not worried that these children will seek revenge on themselves when they grow up, people can be changed and assimilated.

What's more, when they grow up, it's one thing whether they can get close to themselves.

There is not much food on the three cliffs, it should be that there are a lot of people eating on the mountain, and they have been stared at by the Guan Emperor's army in the past few months, and they are not allowed to go down the mountain to loot.

After searching the entire mountain, only 900 stone of grain was found, if Qin Chuan did not come to attack, the people of the three cliffs would not survive the summer harvest at all.

There were many treasures of gold and silver, twelve thousand taels of white -- >>

Silver, more than 600 taels of gold, and some gold and silver jewelry, jade treasures and the like.

There were also a lot of silk and homespun cotton, and the cotton alone was piled up in four rooms, and there were more than 600 pieces of cotton cloth, some of which were looted, and some of which were woven by the ladies after they went up the mountain.

Wang Gang and Bao Wu grabbed these two guys from Linxian to Yongning Prefecture, and then to Fenzhou, and then from Jiaocheng to Luliang Mountain, and there were really a lot of things they grabbed along the way.

There were not many livestock, except for about 400 war horses, there were less than 100 cattle, sheep, donkeys and mules, and a lot of them should have been slaughtered in the past few months.

In this battle, the Guan Emperor's army suffered a total of 60 casualties, of which 28 were killed, most of whom unfortunately died in the shield car, and a small number of them died in the battle when they encountered resistance after entering the village.

Some of them died in such a miserable state that they could not find all the corpses at all.

But Qin Chuan still insisted on collecting the corpse back, how much he could pick up, and when the time came, he would have to transport it back to Lou Fu for burial.

The money, grain, and cloth on the mountain, he does not plan to transport them back to Lou Fu for the time being, and this big village must also be retained, and a hundred imperial troops will be stationed for the time being.

This place is regarded as a retreat, in case there are too many officers and soldiers, Lou Fu can't hold it, he will transport all the money and grain here, and lead the Guan Imperial army to retreat to the three cliffs.

The dry distillation kilns of the two mines of Montenegro and Hongli Mountain can produce a lot of tar, and he only needs to prepare some tar in the three cliffs and prepare some more firewood, this place is the real one-man Guan, not to mention three or five thousand people, I am afraid that eighteen thousand people will not be able to attack.

Besides, there is a well halfway up the mountain, so you don't have to worry about the water source, as long as the food is sufficient, you can completely drag down the Ming army in this place.

Of course, just in case, he was still very confident that he would keep the Ming army out of Lou Fu.

……

Qin Chuan stayed overnight in the three cliffs, and the next morning, after leaving a hundred imperial troops on the mountain to guard the prisoners and money and grain, he led the army down the mountain and headed for the East Hulu River.

It's time to clean up Ren Liang.

To his surprise, Ren Liang had already led his army to wait in the East Huluchuan River.

When the distance was two hundred steps, Qin Chuan asked Emperor Guan's army to stop, and he only took Luo Daniu and a few red-clothed attendants to the Donghuluchuan River.

"Lord Qin only took half a day to conquer the three cliffs, and this ability made Ren admire."

Ren Liang saluted him with a fist, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a somewhat helpless tone.

Qin Chuan smiled faintly: "The eight hundred soldiers under the command of the Ren family are not comparable to Wang Gangbao and the like, I'm afraid Qin will have to spend a little more time to go to the East Huluchuan Dazhai to drink wine and eat meat." ”

"Hahahaha...... Lord Qin laughed. ”

"Ren is in charge, let's get down to business, whether it's war or surrender, just one word."

Ren Liang stopped laughing, and said: "Ren Mou knows that Lord Qin is never merciful to those who commit adulterers, and Ren also knows that Donghuluchuan Dazhai is not a hero, let alone a benevolent and righteous teacher who eliminates violence, peace, robs the rich and helps the poor, Ren is just a thief, and the eight hundred brothers under his command have killed people one by one, robbed the official gentry, and slept with the rich lady. ”

"However, Ren can pat his chest and say that these 800 brothers have never bullied the common people, and they have never killed innocents indiscriminately."

"If Lord Qin is willing to spare the lives of my brothers, Ren is willing to surrender, whether it is to mine in the Black Mountain or saddle the horse for Lord Qin, there is no other word."

"If Lord Qin refuses to agree, Ren will only have a fish to die and the net will be broken."

Hearing his words, Qin Chuan couldn't help but smile.

"Aren't you afraid that I will go back on my word?"

"Lord Qin is a person who does great things, so naturally he will not destroy his faith for the sake of just eight hundred lives."

"Hahahaha, Ren Dangjia's personality is very appetizing to Qin."

"Whether it is a battle or a surrender, it all depends on Lord Qin's words."

"Okay, I promise you, I won't kill your people, and I will let you continue to lead the troops, but your eight hundred people must be broken up and reorganized, don't worry, I won't treat them badly, as long as you have the ability, as long as you don't become a traitor, their glory and wealth are indispensable."

Hearing this, Ren Liang didn't speak, but suddenly turned over and dismounted, kneeling down on one knee.

"Ren Liang is willing to follow the adult, before and after the saddle, and never give up."

His eight hundred people did not hesitate for a moment, and they also dismounted one after another and knelt down on one knee towards this Qin Chuan.

"I am willing to follow my lord, before and after the saddle, and never give up."

"Good, good, good."

Qin Chuan said three good words in a row, and then said: "Ren Liang, I order you to immediately lead these eight hundred brothers and their families back to Loufu, and follow me north to kill officers and soldiers in a few days." ”

"Yes."
