Chapter 64: The King Summoned Me to Patrol the Mountains
When Lin Xiao and the others arrived, the front had already returned to calm, Feng Anmin and the others scattered among the gravel bushes to guard, He Shouxin stood by the road, and there were six or seven ragged people squatting at his feet who were trembling.
Ah Huang stood on a boulder next to him, watching the surroundings condescendingly, with a majestic expression like a general.
Lin Xiao hurriedly asked the people from the communication class to come forward for interrogation.
After interrogation, it turned out that these people were bandits from Yanxia Mountain and Shangling Black Wind Village, which were more than ten miles away, and Situ Zheng found a leader and brought them to Lin Xiao.
This person looks like a roe deer, has a thin body, no matter how he looks like a bandit, he is really unseemly, because he was bitten by Ah Huang just now, his right hand was dripping with blood, and when he saw Lin Xiao, he fell to the ground and begged again and again:
"Hero...... No, no, no, the official spares his life...... The official spares his life! ”
"It's not difficult to save your life, answer me honestly, understand?" Lin Xiao said coldly.
"Yes, yes, the official will say whatever the grass people ask, and the grass people must know everything...... You must know everything! ”
"What is your name? What's the way? ”
"Cao Min Wang Erwang is the small leader of Heifeng Village, and he is our ...... It was our king who ordered me to patrol the mountains. ”
That Wang Erwang was shivering, answering more than asking, obviously frightened.
"The king? Do you grass cowards dare to call themselves kings? ”
Lin Xiao glared and shouted.
"The official spares his life! It's none of my business, this is what our king told us to call. ”
"What is your king's name?"
"Our king's name is Jin Guanglang...... He, he is self-proclaimed...... The self-proclaimed King of Golden Light, said yes, said that he was covered with golden light...... King. ”
Wonderful!
Shouldn't this kind of miscellaneous bandit leader be called a big boss? I didn't expect that there would be anyone who dared to call himself the king.
Lin Xiao had a black line on his face, and shouted:
"The self-proclaimed king of Jin Guanglang? The shell is pretty much the same! ”
"Yes, yes, it's a shell! Dung beetle! Wang Erwang nodded again and again, and responded flatteringly.
"Why are you patrolling the mountains here?"
"Our king...... No, that Jin Guanglang, no, no, no, that shell Lang...... Took us to rob here three days ago and robbed the ...... robbed a group of merchants with female dependents, and after interrogation, they learned that this person was the official army of Qinzhou...... The relationship is not ordinary, and he is afraid that the officers and soldiers will retaliate against him, so he ...... He didn't stop doing anything, and united the people of Heishiling and Niutouling...... Let's set up an ambush here. ”
"Did you get it?" Lin Xiao gasped and said in a deep voice.
"Gotta ...... Got it! Finally waited for the officers and soldiers last night, and we ...... The shell Lang surrounded the officers and soldiers with a large number of people, but after a fierce battle, he was fled to the ...... by a group of officers and troops fled to the town of Shaping...... The shell lang led people to chase after him, and ordered the grass people to ...... The grass people led people to patrol the mountains here and monitor the movements of the officials and troops in the direction of Qinzhou. ”
As a result, as soon as he heard the movement, the grass people were ...... was ...... by a big dog Pounced, the grass people's men ...... was also caught off guard by these officials...... More than 30 people all ran away, and a few of us ...... Didn't have time...... Didn't have time to run away. ”
"Where is the merchant you robbed?" Zhang Tongchang, who was beside him, heard this and asked urgently.
"Just, it's locked up in the cottage. Ten...... Several people were all there. ”
"Are you all there?"
“…… Whole...... In. ”
"It's all here, is it all good? To tell the truth, your life can be saved, if there is half a lie......" Lin Xiao said murderously.
"The official spares his life! The official spares his life! Yes...... There is a daughter...... Female...... It's dead, everyone else is fine, it's all in ......"
"What?" Lin Xiao and Zhang Tongchang said in unison.
Zhang Tongchang's eyes were about to crack when he heard this, and he shouted in a cruel voice: "How did you die?" Who did this to you? ”
"The official spares his life! It wasn't the grass people who did it! It's our ...... Our two-headed ...... What did he do......"
Wang Erwang was so frightened that his hands were shaking and he couldn't hold on.
"Who are you two in charge? Why kill? Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said.
He ...... His name is Jin Er! He's not human...... He's a brute! He...... He ...... not succeed, so he ...... Poop ......"
"Cangchang"!
Feng Suqin next to him couldn't hold it back any longer, his eyes widened angrily when he heard the words, the treasure knife was unsheathed, and He Shouxin behind him hurriedly stopped him before giving up.
"It's none of my business! It's really none of my business! It's really helpless for the grass people to go up the mountain to be bandits! The grass people are telling the truth, if there is half a lie, the official ...... Lord Qingtian, immediately cut the grass people......"
Wang Erwang was already paralyzed on the ground, a puddle of yellow water slowly flowed out from under his buttocks, and the wailing sound became neat! No more stuttering!
"Good! Good! Good! ”
Lin Xiao laughed angrily, his eyes widened angrily and said three good in a row, and then shouted:
"I ask you, you gold...... In what direction did the shell Lang chase people to? How many people are there? ”
"We're husks...... There are more than 500 people in total...... Officials...... Less than ...... Less than a hundred...... retreated in the direction of Shaping Town. ”
"How long have you been there?"
"Officials ...... today. I ran away early this morning, no, no, no, I retreated. Hitherto...... It's been a full day now. ”
"Then how many people are left in your cottage?" Lin Xiao's heart moved, and he groaned slightly.
"And ...... Less than a hundred. ”
Lin Xiao turned to the bandits and said in a fierce voice:
"Your leader, are you telling the truth?"
"Yes, yes, every sentence is true, every sentence is true." The bandits fell to the ground, trembling in response.
"Okay, wait, who wants to make meritorious contributions? Take my army to the cottage? ”
"The grass people are willing to go! The grass people are willing to go! Wang Erwang hurriedly shouted.
……
After calming down a little, Lin Xiao and Zhang Tongchang and others discussed it and decided to divide the troops into two routes, one route was for Zhang Tongchang and others to wait for Yu Cheng and Xia Bomin's brigade here, and then go to the mountain to rescue people; On the other hand, Lin Xiao led the team to Shaping Town to rescue Mo Yuanwei.
After discussion, Lin Xiao ordered Feng Suqin, Feng Anmin and others to accompany Zhang Tongchang to guard the prisoners, and after waiting for Yu Cheng's brigade to arrive, he immediately drove to Heifeng Village, and he took He Shouxin and other cavalry to Shaping Town.
……
After turning over a mountain peak and a few low mountains, there is Shaping Town not far ahead.
As soon as he turned out of the last hill, He Shouxin looked ahead and exclaimed.
When Lin Xiao heard this, he took a step forward and looked over, only to see a sparkling firelight four or five miles in front of him, which looked like torches held by a large group of people.
"Isn't this the Swordsman's Castle? Could it be that bandits are attacking here? He Shouxin lost his voice.
"Swordsman's Castle?" Lin Xiao asked confusedly.
"Commander, this swordsman castle...... It's my father-in-law's manor...... Could it be that my brother is here to retreat? He Shouxin said urgently.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao signaled the team behind him to stop marching and raised the infrared telescope to observe carefully.
In the shot, there is a village with a walled wall next to a big river, and there are piles of people holding torches around the wall, most of the place in the village is dark and there is no light, but there is a brightly lit mansion in the center of the wall.
"What kind of river is that big river?" Lin Xiao groaned.
"That's the Xijiang River, which leads to the Yujiang River to the north, and turns to the west a short distance to the south, and then enters the mountains, which is the upstream birthplace of the Xijiang River." He Shouxin responded.
