Chapter 436: The End of the Nightmare, a Cold Sigh (II)

The light reflected the darkness of the night, simple wooden platforms were being erected in the western col, the torches of the search party were stretching to the side, and the soldiers trotted across the camp. In the small square in the center of the camp, Song Jiang, whose hands and feet were tied, lay on his side on the ground, and the fellow prisoners watched the scholar at the wooden table not far away, folding his hands, and making the most cowardly speech before the wooden platform was completely erected.

"Actually, this is how the whole thing started." "You will be wondering, you will wonder what you are doing to guess what you are doing, not because you think too little, but because you think too much. ”

"After Liangshan was broken, your strong men broke their wrists, and almost 4,000 people escaped from the city, so that my previous arrangement was zeroed, and it was the right move. After that, you walked a lot of steps, burned the village, fled in the mountains, dragged 10,000 or 20,000 people around, when you realized that it was not okay to burn the village, you took Fengping County, and then deterred Rao Ping, and then shot a horse to kill, plus take advantage of the situation in Yunzhou, release rumors, and let everyone follow you...... Ah, Zhu Wu, it seems that only you are interested in what I have to say......"

"You've done a great job, and every step has been amazing." Standing at the wooden table, Ning Yi's gaze roamed over everyone's bodies, and his speed of speech was calm and slightly fast, only then did he nod to Zhu Wu's side and affirm, "To be able to take advantage of the situation here and do so many things, it is already very difficult for more than 3,000 people to run around in the mountains for nearly a month without being caught." Moreover, you began to rectify military discipline, suppressed the role of spies to the greatest extent, and suppressed them until the most reluctant. I'll be honest with you. Your tactical use, no matter what the move, I didn't catch you...... Oh......"

Zhu Wu raised his head in the cage, his eyes were the deepest doubts, a small soldier next to Ning Yi came to report the situation, Ning Yi nodded after listening, and then picked up the water cup on the table.

"He said that the col is a little irritable, regardless of them, you are interested in returning to Zhu Wu...... And Brother Song Gongming may also want to know about the topic of Lu Dao. I didn't catch you. Although in all fairness. I wish they could have brought you together sooner and not let you do so much of the mess, but I have to admit that we are not there yet. I...... From beginning to end, only one thing was determined, from the time you left Yangsan. I'm sure. ”

"You're going to kill me!" The voice echoed in the small square. Ning Yi nodded. "You must kill me! I've been sure of this since you went down Liangshan, and you seem to have been a little late. The whole thing is as simple as that. ”

The words spread with the wind, Ning Yi lowered his head to drink water, and let a little silence remain here, and after a while, he put down the cup and shook his head.

"There are many ways for people to move forward...... Many times, everyone thinks so, when you went down Liangshan, it wasn't that you didn't think about killing me. But in front of you, it seems that many things can be done, you can go to Tianhu, although the road is a little far, and out of Yunzhou, you are not so familiar with the terrain, but it is not impossible; You can keep wandering, and drag the Wurui battalion to finally lose the mood to arrest you again, because they already have the credit for exterminating the 50,000 people in Liangshan; You can keep burning and looting villages, and force the officials in Yunzhou or other places to be willing to recruit you and avoid trouble; You can kill me too, but it seems to be quite troublesome, and it seems like it's just one of the options...... But I'm only sure of the last one, no matter how many roads lie ahead, you can only come here......"

"You killed Jiangning, and returned after a small setback, I let you eat the canal, and after a few years of operation, you are in full swing, Dulonggang I will defeat you, Liangshan is geographically advantageous, and I will let you fight among yourself. It's me who runs around, threatening the officials around me and never allowing you to surrender! It was I who urged the Wurui battalion to never allow them to withdraw their troops! If you have a way to go, I will seal yours, and if you burn the village, I will use the rest of the people to fill the holes in Dulonggang. When you take a step and fall, you will definitely see me more and more clearly, but by this time, it is too late......"

"Do you think you've woken up? Think you're ...... Suddenly found the key point in the complicated clues? Think you've finally made a decision and are in ruin? Thought that after making a decision, he tried his best to use tactics, played officers and soldiers together, and then decisively killed a horse gun? You've been thinking so much these days that you've been deceived and mistaken in order......"

"You finally made a decision on the fifth and sixth days of the first month, and on June 23rd and 24th, we have already talked to Wu Ruiying. I don't have a lot of experience in tactics yet, I can only see this step, I told them about it, and then ...... Understanding......"

The voice paused: "After you muddy the waters, I can't catch up with all your actions." I am not expecting things like a god, nor have I received information about your actions from any spies, for you have been prepared, and the information must be false, and the information will inevitably be poor. After Liangshan, all the responsibilities of the spies have been completed, and I have made them all silent, even if they take the initiative to spread it, I choose to doubt it...... Yan Qing put a note in Fengping, and until now, I haven't opened it. But the more intense your actions became, the more clearly you told me what you wanted to do...... The direction of the general trend has become narrower and narrower, but what can you do otherwise? The Wurui battalion is a little sluggish because of various rules and regulations, but it has been preparing for a month, and it is still no problem to ambush......"

The soldier came over again and reported the news, and Ning Yi nodded again.

"Of course, you can not fight, but if this is the case, at most there will be another month and a half, and I guarantee that external pressure will make your entire team unable to sustain it. When the time comes, the mountains and wilderness of Yunzhou will not be able to run away if you want to, and it doesn't make a difference when the decisive battle will be......" He smiled, his voice lowered, "Okay, what should be said...... It's almost over, everyone, let's go over, the two thousand people inside are probably already waiting impatiently. Come, Song Jiang. Let's walk together......"

The soldiers surrounded him, someone untied the rope on Song Jiang's feet and helped him up, Song Jiang struggled and said: "What are you going to do...... but the soldiers dragged up all the heroes captured this time one by one. Zhu Wu, Wu Song, Dai Zong, Xi Junyu, Chai Jin, Zhang Qing...... Wait, wait, blah, push forward one by one, Wu Song struggled hard, kicked one of the soldiers away, and there was a bang, and blood flowers bloomed on his chest, almost at the same time as Ning Yi shot. A soldier next to him slashed at him. I was taken aback. Ning Yi put down the musket, watched Wu Song's corpse fall, and then nodded at the soldier with a smile: "Good job." ”

He patted Song Jiang on the shoulder: "Although it is the first time we have met, I like you." No more asking. Let's go. ”

The group walked out. Song Jiang stumbled, showing some trembling, and then gritted his teeth. took a breath: "There are two thousand people, they are all the most powerful brothers in my Liangshan......"

"Huh?" Ning Yi, who was walking beside him, looked at him kindly.

"You can't force it like this, people will be desperate when they are driven to death, I ...... I can surrender, I can be recruited, you don't have to die so many people, you ...... Let go of these brothers of mine, you don't have to kill them all, I Song Jiang ...... If you want to kill in the future, you will kill ......"

"The righteousness is awe-inspiring, enough brothers." Ning Yi smiled and nodded, listening carefully, they passed through the array of soldiers, and a small wooden platform could already be seen in the distance, Ning Yi did not answer his words, thought about it, and said with a smile, "Actually, I can understand you, I understand these things you do." ”

"Uh......" Song Jiang was stunned, but Ning Yi patted him on the shoulder and urged him to leave quickly, and his voice was not high, like the whispers of two friends in parallel.

"No one is born to want to be a bandit, and sometimes, when the time is fatal, we can't stop it. Just like a tiger lying in the barren river, lurking minions to endure, you see, I like your words very much, when you are obedient, you can only go up the mountain to be a bandit, there are many like this, for example...... Lin Chong, he was framed by Gao Yu, the lady was insulted by the scum of Gao Yanei, died, he was assassinated with the army and had to be framed by his boss, assassinated by the villain, and had to go up the mountain after the worst of all, and he received all the insults that a man could receive. ”

While saying that, Ning Yi shook his head, his eyes sighed: "He can't seek revenge, what can a sect leader do, tattoo words on his face, even if he assassinates him in the capital, he can't kill Gao Yu, take a step back and say, even if he is lucky enough to kill Gao Yu, he will definitely not be able to leave." Some people say cool things, accusing him of not having a desperate heart for anything, I don't think so, desperate, it's easy to say...... It is simply immoral to hold others to this standard. So I understand him very well, you say...... Look, your brother and friend......"

At this time, the group had already walked to the vicinity of the wooden platform, and in the valley in the distance, the figures of the besieged Liangshan people could already be seen, and they were also looking towards this side, and then caused a small-scale commotion, and the leaders and soldiers of Liangshan were filled with indignation.

Song Jiang was brought to the wooden platform, and the fire shone brightly, allowing everyone in the col over there to see more clearly. Xi Junyu was standing next to him, and the rest of the people lined up under the stage, the soldiers wanted them to kneel at first, some knelt, some struggled, Ning Yi waved his hand below: "Don't bother too much, kneel if you like to kneel, just stand if you like to stand, it's okay." ”

The wind was blowing torches, the light was swaying, the sound was whistling, and the crowd of soldiers on both sides were facing each other at a distance of hundreds of meters. Wu Yong, Li Kui, Song Qing, Hua Rong, Sun Erniang, Song Wan...... Li Kui let out a loud shout and was almost about to rush over, but after all, he was not impulsive. Ning Yi looked to both sides, making sure that they could probably see their faces clearly, before he returned, Song Jiang was actually looking at him all the time, and he also walked to Song Jiang's side.

"Actually, I understand you, for example...... Do the right thing for heaven or something. A rebellion, of course, must have a slogan! Why can't there be? It's me too, and I have it, so be sure to shout loud! Also, look at the side, Xi Junyu...... The matter is very simple, the younger brother is causing trouble outside, or he is not a good thing, of course the boss has to carry it. If he wants to go up the mountain, of course, he is killing people and setting fire to do bad things, and if he is too good, the government will not force him to come up. Sometimes, the little brother's things have been done, and it's okay to apologize with a salute, the rivers and lakes, it's inevitable to ......be injured by mistake when you fight, kill, and kill."

The night was silent, only the sound of the wind, and the people on both sides watched Ning Yi talk to Song Jiang like a friend on the wooden platform, and even occasionally pointed at Xi Junyu, but did not say a word to the people here or there. I don't know what's going to happen. Even Song Jiang felt a little weird at this time. He hoped that Ning Yi would talk to him about recruiting or surrendering, but the other party was chattering, and only strange and cold emotions accumulated in his heart.

"And Qin Ming, Xu Ning, they, such a powerful person, of course it is better to use them than to kill them, if it were me, most of them would also want to force them to rebel. Cornered on the mountain, the stronger Liangshan is, the more chips I have to save my life, right? The future will be too big. Talk to the government about Zhao'an. Be an official. Really, it's me or the only way to do it. You see, I understand you, I really understand you. ”

Ning Yi looked at him with a smile. This phrase was repeated. When Song Jiang nodded subconsciously after a moment. Ning Yi remembered something: "Hmm...... Back to Dao Lu's apology, although this matter was started by your little brother, more than a hundred people died in the Su family. Like some children, only so tall, so little bit taller, I see...... They were cut in two. It's not their fault, I'm sure it's not their fault, since you did something wrong, can you apologize? So small children...... You tell me? I'd love for you to apologize to them and say sorry......"

Song Jiang looked at Ning Yi, and Ning Yi also looked at Song Jiang, his eyes were soft but persistent, and he smiled, and he was a little sad. Song Jiangyaguan stood up: "I'm sorry." His voice seemed to come out between his teeth, and after saying it, he probably felt that his voice was too small and wanted to say it loudly again, but Ning Yi had already nodded, reached out and touched the top of his head and the back of his head: "It's okay, it's okay, they're in the sky now, and they should be able to hear it loud and quiet." It's already OK......"

Song Jiang was over forty years old at this time, although he was not the most burly on Liangshan, but he was also a tower-like man, but Ning Yi touched his head like this, but it was like touching a child, there was still blood in the back of his head at this time, and Ning Yi didn't care at all. After saying this, he raised the fingers of his right hand and waved, and went to the side with a little excitement.

"I said it, I understand you, it's like ...... Lin Chong, it's like the one I just killed, it's Wu Song, right? He's Wu Song, right? I killed the tiger with my bare hands, and if I usually heard that there was such a powerful person, I would have to say that he was a good man. You drink wine and eat meat in big bowls, how happy, right, it sounds desirable, and if you put it in a book, it will be very popular. Over there, Zhiduoxing Wu Yong, it sounds very powerful. Your brother Li Kui, you can kill whoever you want, how awesome. Don't talk about Li Kui, let's talk about Lu Zhishen, people say that he has great wisdom, you see, he has great wisdom, and he can always be chic and happy, everyone will yearn for it, and the people like such a good man, because they also hope that they can live so freely......"

"What are you going to do......" As Ning Yi chattered, Song Jiang finally interrupted him again. Because Ning Yi said as he picked and chose in the box next to him, and took out a sharp, bright and bright boning steel knife, which looked like it was used to kill pigs. Song Jiang asked this sentence, and Ning Yi shook the knife in his hand before he stopped and glanced at the steel knife.

"Oh, this...... Knives, knives, of course. Where did I just speak? Belch...... Be free, live freely, and everyone yearns for it, but, but what if you come to our house......" Ning Yi took the knife and blew it on his side, shook his head and walked over, looking at Song Jiang, then he paused, looked down at the knife in his hand, and touched the tip of the knife with his hand, "You guys...... It's going to kill us, it's not just a matter of telling the story, you're going to kill it, and you're going to kill the whole family. What should I do at this time? ”

Ning Yi stood there: "Have you always said that you have a hard time, can I understand you?" Wu Song, I also want to be able to kill the tiger so powerful, Lin Chong, I am also indignant for him, really indignant, Lu Zhishen, everyone wants to be like him, at ease, with great wisdom, although he does not accumulate good fruits, kills people and sets fires, maybe he will one day be enlightened and become a Buddha, but before he becomes a Buddha, he will protect you, what about the people who are killed by him and killed by you? What if he kills me before he becomes a Buddha? Such a Buddha? What am I going to do!? I want to drink wine and eat meat in big bowls like you, everyone thinks, but what if the wine you drink is mine? You see, you have come to my house and killed people......"

Ning Yi looked at him with a sincere gaze, and the blade in his hand turned: "So, I said this, can you understand?" ”

Song Jiang's teeth trembled, and he wanted to say something, but his expression changed rapidly. The wind blew, and in Ning Yi's hand, the blade turned to the top of the sword and froze. The gaze stopped at that moment.

"Xie Lu, Xie understands."

When the flat words fell, Ning Yi took a step forward, stabbed Song Jiang into Song Jiang's stomach with a knife, then grabbed the handle of the knife and pulled it up suddenly. Under everyone's gaze, blood sprayed into the sky in the light of the fire.

In the air, there seemed to be a shout, right next to Song Jiang, Xi Junyu, who had been listening to the whole process, shouted "ah", and retreated suddenly, urine had leaked out of his pants, Ning Yi shook his head, regardless of the blood splashed on his body, glanced at Xi Junyu, handed the steel knife in his hand to the companion next to him, and swiped towards Xi Junyu, this is his most disposition of Xi Junyu. Then in the huge agitation, Ning Yi turned around, and raised a hand in the light of the fire.

"Kill—"

On the side of the wooden platform on this side, the soldiers lined up raised their steel knives and slashed out towards the column of Liangshan heroes who were held in front of the formation, Zhu Wu, Dai Zong, Chai Jin, and Zhang Qing...... Rows of blood bloomed and gushed out. Murderous aura, flames tearing through the night sky. Song Jiang's whole person was dissected, knelt down, and fell. The blood flowed, on the wooden platform, under Ning Yi's feet, and spread out......

After the rain of arrows, the soldiers began to rush together, and the real killing of this night began......
