Chapter 601: There Will Be a Brave Man Under the Heavy Reward (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)
"Those who offer Li Zicheng's head will be rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver and forgive their sins!"
……
The deafening shouts echoed in the valley, and even the mountains and forests were shaken, but what was even more shocking was the hearts of the people, so that the listeners were not uncomfortable and their hearts were shaken.
The rewards were not only Li Zicheng, but also the generals below Li Zicheng, the generals Quan, and the so-called generals Guoyi and mighty generals, whose heads were worth 50,000 taels and 10,000 taels of silver, and even the leaders with names and surnames were rewarded with 100 taels of silver.
What kind of impact will such a bounty have on the thieves?
For Li Shuangxi and Li Qiang, who were in the battle formation, they had no time to care about the rewards of the officials and soldiers, after all, now the officers and troops were blindly pursuing them, and what was annoying was that the officers and soldiers did not give them the opportunity to fight at all, but fought with short guns several feet apart, leaving with one blow, and never falling in love with war.
You retreat, they chase, you fight back, they retreat. While withdrawing, he turned back and put the gun.
"Kill me!"
Li Qiang waved his knife and shouted, and took the lead in killing the pursuing Ming army.
Because the distance was a little far, Su San was not in a hurry to make a move, after all, the distance was too far, and the short gun couldn't hit at all.
When the two sides were about 100 paces apart, Su San and the others, who were originally pursuing, immediately turned their horses' heads and retreated backwards without looking back, while Li Qiang chased after them.
As the two sides approached, gunfire rang out again,
In the dense gunfire, the soldiers around Li Qiang fell off their horses from time to time screaming after being shot, and at the same time, Su San, who was unforgiving, cut through a semicircle while running, hit with a backhand, and killed the thieves head-on, even if they counterattacked, they would never fight, but shoot the thieves with a pistol from a distance.
It was only a moment's effort, and Li Qiang only had five or six hundred cavalry left around him, and there were more than a thousand officers and horses. But even so, Li Qiang was not a little afraid, shouted, led the cavalry towards the enemy cavalry, and after a while, there were only dozens of cavalry left around Li Qiang, but he was still rushing left and right, fighting desperately. When Li Shuangxi led the cavalry over, he was already seriously wounded, and his body was gradually losing his body, and when he saw Li Shuangxi, he said loudly:
"Double Happiness, hold back the enemy so that they can't catch up with the Holy Driver!"
Li Shuangxi said:
"Brother Qiang, the holy car has gone away, you hurry up and retreat with me!"
At this moment, Li Qiang was shot in the back again, and the man fell off the horse.
"Quick, protect Brother Qiang and go down!"
Li Shuangxi shouted, while leading his cavalry towards the official army, because there was no time to rush to load, the two sides fought in the valley for a while, Li Shuangxi was lucky to break out, but at this time he led most of the men and horses were killed and wounded. After a short walk, a narrow mountain road blocked the way.
Seeing that he couldn't go, Li Shuangxi could only return to his horse and fight again, and there were less than 100 cavalry left around him. It was the cavalry led by Su San who was chasing him, and he already knew that he was Li Zicheng's adopted son, so he immediately shouted loudly.
"Those who offer Li Shuangxi's head will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver and forgive their sins!"
"Those who offer Li Shuangxi's head will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver and forgive their sins!"
……
"Battalion boss, let's just watch like this?"
The subordinate's question made Su San smile.
—————
"The trapped beast is still fighting, shout a few times and try, five thousand taels...... Not a lot! ”
That's a lot, indeed!
How much do they get paid?
Five thousand taels, even if it is in Jiangnan, you can buy hundreds of acres of land!
There will be brave men under the great reward. There are people in this world who don't love silver, but the vast majority of people love silver. There are many such people among these thieves.
Looking at the officers and soldiers approaching step by step like a tide, listening to the shouts coming from there, Li Shuangxi, who was riding on the horse, could feel the strangeness of the soldiers around him, the soldiers around him held swords, and looked at the cavalry around them vigilantly, their expressions were different, as if they were thinking about something.
The knife in Li Shuangxi's hand was full of gaps, and he was shot in his left arm, he looked at the soldiers around him, and then said:
"Since I can't fight anymore, and I can't take it to the official dog, you should quickly escape for your lives!"
He turned to the west again and shouted:
"Father, my son can't follow his father in this life......"
Just as he was about to swing his sword towards the official army, he suddenly heard someone shouting.
"Now that it's here, the general might as well lend his head to our brother for a few uses!"
Li Tianzhang is the leader of Li Shuangxi, and he has already picked up a knife in his hand when he speaks.
"Brothers, the general's head is worth five thousand taels, and one of us can divide dozens of taels of silver! King Chuang has been forced to this point, he will definitely not be able to turn over, and we can't send them to death together! I won't stop him if he is willing to go, but his Li Shuangxi's head is going to be decided! ”
Li Shuangxi stared at Li Tianzhang in astonishment, he is also a fellow villager in Shaanxi! How can you do such a thing?
"You, you, Lao Tzu killed you dog thief......"
As soon as he spoke, Li Shuangxi swung his knife and slashed over, and more than 100 remnants immediately slashed and killed each other, although Li Shuangxi's personal soldiers were desperately protecting him, but they were at a disadvantage from the beginning. Especially after the injured Li Shuangxi cut down a few rebels, after he was slashed by Li Tianzhang, his own soldiers rushed desperately towards the rebels and slashed for a while, but in the end they were killed by the surrounding rebels with knives.
"Really, really infighting......"
Su San and his subordinates had never seen such a scene, and they were all surprised. Even Su San was stunned for a while before reacting.
"This, that's ......"
In his astonishment, Li Tianzhang had already cut off Li Shuangxi's head quickly, and then beat the horse and rushed towards the official army, dismounted and knelt in front and back.
"The sinner Li Tianzhang see the general, this is the head of Li Shuangxi, the adopted son of the thief leader Li Zicheng!"
Staring at the bloody head, looking at the eyes full of unwillingness, Su San's gaze fell on Li Tianzhang's body again, although he was not ashamed of his personality, he still said.
"Well, with this head, not only will your sins be forgiven, but the reward of five thousand taels will also be cashed!"
5,000 taels of silver is not much, how much is not familiar, but for the imperial court, Li Shuangxi's head is worth so much silver, not to mention that all this is just the beginning.
Now that there is a head of Li Shuangxi, are other people's heads still far away?
The troops of the Dashun army, who followed Liu Zongmin to retreat into the mountains, did not break up on the road, although many of them were wiped out by the officers and troops in the process of retreating. However, the official army pursued and killed the scattered Dashun army for more than 20 miles, and when it was nearly dusk, in order to avoid the ambush of the thieves, they no longer pursued.
A round of the last quarter moon came out, according to the majestic Taixing, according to the road of the Dashun army to flee west......
