Chapter 334: The Winner
"Ah......h
The sound of fighting and fleeing, the light of fire that surrounded the whole world, the three thousand rebels gathered like a vortex, and then retreated like a tide.
Running backwards, the trees, the ironic moon hung in the sky, the movement in the woods became bigger and bigger, I don't know who shouted, in the ambush, and then the original high morale of the whole team suddenly collapsed at this moment, suppressed for so long, originally relied on the current hard support, at this time after the break, it was completely shattered.
The fight spread from the rear, and then there were arrows flying out, Li Lei remembered, one shot on his shoulder, and then the fighting, pain, his head was still buzzing, he could vaguely feel himself lying on the ground, a cold feeling, someone shouted "Holy Father...... The Holy Father", but the voice did not sound for long, and then it was gone.
The light came in bursts, people moved, and a voice came from time to time in the distance, "Ah...... Grab another ......"
That voice didn't know why, it made him feel extremely hateful, and in it, there was a kind of horror and chill from the depths of his heart. Sometimes the eyes are slightly open, and you can see the footsteps of the walk, the hem of the robe.
"You kind of killed Lao Tzu!" A captured rebel shouted loudly.
"Okay." There are still people who make such a request, naturally to meet him, and Hao Jingcheng will naturally not let these people down.
After a while, a corpse was carried away, and the obnoxious voice came again: "Who else has such a request?" ”
The light is still changing, his consciousness has become more and more awake, Li Lei finally woke up from the coma, struggled, but his hands and feet should be tied, he tried to open his eyes, and someone shouted: "Holy Father, are you awake?" ”
Li Lei opened his eyes and saw that the young man in the scholar's robe in front of him was talking to his companions around him, his eyes swept over, this was the center of a simple camp, and the battle outside should not be over yet, but it seemed quiet.
Lying on the ground, there were some cages around the prisoners, and several brothers who were caught were tied up and thrown inside, including Xi Maijun, but the cage door was not closed, and Xi Maijun was also tied with his hands behind his back, kneeling there, his expression was silent, his eyes were dull, and he didn't say a word, probably he could only use this form to deal with the scene in front of him.
"Papa......" The young man turned his head to this side, looked at him, clapped his palms, and said with a smile: "Wake up, can you see me?" First Meeting...... I just didn't expect it to be in such a scene. ”
The person in front of him is Hao Jingcheng - although this is really their first meeting, Li Lei can also know this in his heart.
"The Holy Father has woken up, who is that, Li Biao, hasn't it been tied up over there, go and see...... Why is it so slow......" Hao Jingcheng said with some dissatisfaction.
"This can't be, this can't be...... You can't guess, you can't have so many people......" Li Lei roared in a low voice with a look of disbelief, all the tricks were calculated, but in the end it was empty.
"What?" Hao Jingcheng turned around and listened, "People? Oh, that's the people of the local officials and soldiers, I asked them to ambush on both sides in advance, and there are not many, almost three thousand people on each side, so when you fight, you are not facing two thousand, but eight thousand, you only have three thousand, and we have eight ......thousand" Hao Jingcheng seemed to be in a very good mood, as a victor, saying this at this time naturally also has the meaning of showing off to the loser.
Hao Jingcheng said a few words, and someone came to report the news, so he went to listen to it, and then walked this way again, lowered his head and drew a few strokes in a small notebook.
Suddenly, Hao Jingcheng raised his head and looked gentle: "I can see that you are very strange...... By the way, I forgot to tell you what happened, when you called before, we outflanked and killed some people, and the remaining almost 2,000 people are now blocked by us in the western col, some of them may want to climb the mountain, but ......"
After a pause, he continued, "Oh, pull it down." We'll attack later, and we're going to die, but there's still a little time to talk to you a little bit......"
Hao Jingcheng put away the small notebook, leaned on a wooden table in the center of the venue here, and looked at this side: "Anyway, the matter is over, let's make a summary." ”
Listening to that flat tone, some premonitions appeared in Li Lei's heart, a heart had completely sunk, and what he thought of now was actually no longer a doubt.
"I, I...... Even if it is a crime of rebellion, I should be tried in the capital, you can't kill me privately! Li Lei's lips were a little dry and said, he was indeed nervous.
Hao Jingcheng looked at him, his eyes were quiet, he didn't answer, and after a while, his eyes looked at the west side of the camp and began to speak: "Actually, the beginning of the whole thing is like this......"
The night breeze of early autumn blew, soaked in a coldness far colder than the harsh winter, and swept through the camp, and in the col to the west of the camp, more than 2,000 people were blocked from exiting, looking at a simple wooden platform gradually erected outside the col, accumulating doubts and despair. In a short time, this grudge that has lasted for several months, the source of the grudge that has entrenched the rebels for several years, and the power that originally had a huge body will come to an end on this night.
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, Li Lei, whose hands and feet were tied, lay on his side on the ground, and the fellow prisoners looked at the scholar at the wooden table not far away, folding his hands, and making a final speech before the wooden platform was completely erected.
"Actually, this is how the whole thing started." Hao Jingcheng said softly, "You will feel puzzled, you will feel strange about why your actions were guessed, not because you think too little, but because you think too much. ”
Hao Jingcheng's voice came: "After your cottage was broken, your strong men broke their wrists, and almost 4,000 people escaped, so that my previous arrangement was zeroed, which 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, and when you realized that it was not okay to burn the village, you took Ping County, and then shot a horse to kill you, plus take advantage of the situation in Junzhou, release rumors, and let everyone follow you...... Ah, Xi Maijun, it seems that only you are interested in what I have to say......"
