Chapter 795: Relief
Preparing to kill Ye Zhizhou and Gu Moxi first and then go back to fight the fire, he had just raised his knife when he suddenly shot an arrow from the forest, just shooting the knife in his hand.
Gu Moxi's secret guards had been secretly protecting him, and the thousand centaurs had already quietly touched it while their attention was on the gold.
Wang Hu secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly signaled everyone to pull into the stockade, but now that Lin Yi had taken the initiative in the village, they were suffering from the enemy.
"Brothers, follow me and kill you." Wang Hu was still fighting the trapped beasts, and the thousand soldiers got Lin Yi's promise, whether it was for themselves or for their families, they all risked their lives to fight to the death with those mountain bandits, and those mountain bandits were in chaos after seeing that the village had been set on fire.
Even if Wang Hu shouted at the top of his voice, there was no way to stop the footsteps of those mountain bandits fleeing in all directions.
Gu Moxi glanced at the secret guard in the forest and motioned for him to find Lu Cancan.
For a time, the Langya Mountain was full of fire, and there were corpses everywhere, including soldiers and mountain bandits, and the cries of women and children were endless.
Lu Cancan asked Lin Yi to take Ye Qing away first, and went to find those women and children by himself, they were all innocent.
Lin Yi didn't worry about Lu Cancan, but Ye Qing finally escaped, where was he willing to go back, he took Lin Yi's hand vigorously and asked him to stop caring about Lu Cancan.
Now there are still a lot of mountain bandits alive, those untouchables will die when they die, and if Lu Cancan wants to die alone, he will go by himself.
Ye Qing's words made Lin Yi very angry, he entrusted Ye Qing to a soldier, and then went to find Lu Cancan, Ye Qing knelt on the ground and begged him not to stop him from leaving.
There were fires everywhere, and Lu Cancan saw that the survivors were hiding in the cellar in fear, she let them out, and she would definitely beg Lin Yi to let them go.
They are also victims, and now that the bandits are dead, they should return to their normal lives.
Those women, you look at me, I look at you, they don't dare to be the first to stand up.
"Cancan!" Lin Yi arrived, and he saw that there were still so many people in the cellar, no wonder Lu Cancan had to come back.
"These are all girls who were snatched back by mountain bandits." Lu Cancan said that she hoped that Lin Yi would let these women go.
Although these people are indeed innocent, but this crackdown on the bandits is the emperor's will, the emperor means to kill without forgiveness, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, they are also the family members of the mountain bandits, Lin Yi can only say that he will try his best to intercede.
The women came out of the cellar one by one under the persuasion of Lu Cancan and Lin Yi, and Lin Yi asked some soldiers to escort them down the mountain first.
"Report to General Lin, the mountain bandits have basically been killed." In the cottage, the corpses of the bandits were piled up into small hills.
They won, but they also paid a terrible price.
Except for the elite soldiers that Lin Yi brought from the capital, there were more people alive, and the 1,000 soldiers had basically forgotten about them.
The surviving soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, and the bodies of both bandits and soldiers were piled together and set on fire.
The women and children stood not far away, watching the flames that burned with corpses.
Lu Cancan's heart was a little heavy, these children had endured things that they shouldn't have to bear at their age.
"I will ask my father to write a letter that I hope will acquit them and have a few acres of fertile land to start a new life."
That's what she wants.
Soon, the battlefield was cleaned up, both the bandits and the soldiers were turned into ashes, and there were bandits on Langya Mountain.
However, although the bandit was successful this time, Wang Hu's body was not found.
If he guessed correctly, he should have escaped.
"Post a wanted warrant, and anyone who can find Wang Hu will be rewarded with a hundred taels." This Wang Hu is definitely a dangerous element, Lin Yi immediately ordered to block the entire Jiangnan, the city gate is only allowed to enter and not exit, everyone must be strictly checked, and some soldiers are arranged to patrol the city, as long as they see people with similar appearances, they would rather be arrested first than let go.
Lu Cancan looked at the devastated Langya Mountain, can this place finally return to calm in the future?
They were escorted down the mountain by the remaining soldiers, and Gu Moxi and Ye Zhizhou were waiting for them here.
"Cancan."
Gu Moxi stepped forward to look at Lu Cancan, Lu Cancan smiled, he was fine.
"Have you seen the prescription I prescribed?"
Gu Moxi nodded, fortunately Lu Cancan was smart, otherwise they would not have been able to find the mountain bandits' stockade in such a short period of time.
"You must be frightened, let's go back."
Lu Cancan glanced back at Lin Yi and found that he was also looking at himself, Lu Cancan just wanted to say something, Ye Qing stuck to Lin Yi again, Lu Cancan bit his lip and followed Gu Moxi down the mountain.
The mountain bandits in Langya Mountain were exterminated, but the people nearby felt relieved, and they no longer had to live in fear.
When Lin Yi entered the city again with his soldiers, the people of the entire city came out to welcome him.
Ye Zhizhou rode a tall horse and walked in the front, although he didn't make much effort, but he accepted everyone's thanks with peace of mind.
Back at Zhizhou Mansion and lying on the soft bed, Lu Cancan felt as if he had been reborn.
Those days on Langya Mountain were like a dream, very unreal.
"Cancan, are you resting?" Gu Moxi's voice came from outside.
Lu Cancan got up and opened the door, and saw Gu Moxi standing outside with a food box.
He saw that she didn't seem to have eaten anything since she came back, so he prepared some snacks, all of which Lu Cancan loved to eat.
Maybe it was because she felt a little sick to her stomach after watching the bloody scene for a day, but she didn't want to live up to Gu Moxi's kindness, so she could only force herself to eat two bites.
"If you feel reluctant, forget it." Gu Moxi handed her a glass of water, "I never want to force you to do something you don't like, so you don't have to force yourself because of me." ”
"Thank you."
Lu Cancan whispered that from the divorce to these little things, she has always felt that she is very sorry for Gu Moxi, especially since he still cares about himself so much.
Gu Moxi smiled: "Even if we can't be husband and wife, aren't we friends?" ”
This understanding really moved Lu Cancan, and she felt that she had nothing to repay Gu Moxi.
In Gu Moxi's room, the secret guard knelt on one knee, and in Gu Moxi's hand, there was an unfinished snack.
"Do you know why I brought you to Jiangnan?"
The dark guard thought for a moment and said, "To protect the safety of the master. ”
