Xing Lei led his men to fight and retreat, and after making a few turns on the winding mountain road, he came to the edge of a mountain cliff in front.

"Brothers, throw all the grain into the Quye River below and feed it to the king. We don't leave a single cart of grain for the Japanese people. Xing Lei, who was standing on the edge of the cliff, ordered loudly.

After receiving the order, dozens of people in charge of driving the cart immediately took action, and dozens of ox carts were driven down the cliff one after another and fell into the Quye River below.

As we said earlier, the mastermind of this rescue plan is Li Shanhai. As the initiator of this exchange of grain for people, Li Shanhai used Xing Lei as a scapegoat from the very beginning to plan. He never told Huang Long and the others about his plan to use fake grain to get by.

In order to confuse Xing Lei and prevent him from knowing the fact of fake grain, Li Shanhai specially instructed Huang Long before Huang Long and others rushed to Heilong Mountain to recruit Xing Lei that one of the details of this mission was to order Xing Lei to throw all the grain trucks into the river after he succeeded in grabbing the grain, so as not to fall into the hands of the Japanese people.

For the scheming Li Shanhai, this has the following advantages: first, it solves the fatal problem of not being able to raise food; Second, once the rescue of the prince fails, the Japanese people blame it, and they can splash dirty water on Xing Lei's head, saying that Xing Lei stole the grain; Third, even if the rescue of the prince is successful, and Xing Lei and the others return to the imperial court, they will not hold a grudge against themselves because they know that they are being used in a fool's way.

"Big brother, at this time, presumably Brother Huanglong, they should have already succeeded." Qiu Rui, the owner of the second village, saw that all the grain had been thrown into the river as planned, and said to Xing Lei.

"yes. It's a pity that so much grain was fed to Wang Ba in vain. Xing Lei said.

"Alright, big brother. Being able to successfully help Brother Huanglong complete the task is also a wish of yours. Let's go back. Qiu Rui comforted Xing Lei.

"Let's go. Brethren, go back to the cottage. Let's kill pigs and sheep. Wait for Brother Huanglong to return victoriously, and celebrate with Brother Huanglong! Xing Lei said loudly.

According to the prior agreement between Huang Long and Xing Lei, after the mission was successful, the two of them each led their own teams back to Heilong Mountain to meet.

On the top of the mountain on the west side of the Yanling Valley, Huang Long vomited blood and passed out on the spot.

Seeing this, Cui Biao said to a school officer beside him: "You, lead five hundred brothers to stay behind, and be sure to block the enemy in the valley." The rest of the people will retreat with me to escort the eldest brother! ”

"Yes. Deputy Commander-in-Chief. Brothers of the Tiger Guard Battalion, stay with me. Occupy the favorable terrain and don't let the Japanese climb up. Cover Big Brother to leave safely! The officer answered, turned to the soldier beside him and ordered.

"Come, I'll carry my eldest brother on my back. Let's retreat! Cui Biao handed over the weapon in his hand to a soldier beside him, and then, with a bow, he carried the unconscious Huanglong on his back, and withdrew in the direction of Heilong Mountain in the north surrounded by other soldiers.

The 500 brothers who remained behind to take charge of the remnants of the Tiger Guard Battalion set up a position on the top of the hill and engaged in a desperate struggle against the Japanese people who were several times their size.

Braving the large and small stones on the top of the mountain that were constantly pushed down or thrown by a large group of members of the Tiger Guard Battalion, Konishi Yukinaga waved his long knife and gave orders to attack his men again and again.

The Japanese army led by Governor Konishi was originally under the command of Kato Kiyomasa, the commander-in-chief of the Second Army of the Japanese Army that invaded Korea, and had strong combat effectiveness.

Thousands of Japanese soldiers howled and launched attacks on the top of the mountain. Some of them were constantly being hit by rocks that had fallen from the top of the mountain. On the hillside, the corpses of Japanese soldiers were lying everywhere.

After nearly half an hour of tug-of-war, Konishi Yukinaga finally led his men to attack the top of the mountain.

In the dense forest at the top of the mountain, the remaining more than 100 brothers of the Tiger Guard Battalion engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese soldiers who pounced like wolves and tigers.

As the last soldier of the Tiger Guard Battalion rolled down the valley with a Japanese soldier in his arms, all the five hundred brothers of the Tiger Guard Battalion were killed. They used their lives and blood to buy precious time for their commander, the Yellow Dragon, to retreat.

Cui Biao led the remaining brothers of the Tiger Guard Camp to Heilong Mountain at dark time.

Xing Lei, who was the first to rush back, had already led the leaders of the mountains to greet him in front of the walled gate.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Huang Long, who was supported by Cui Biao and An Zaiji, who was approaching, Xing Lei ran to him in three steps and two steps.

"It's hard to put into words. This time, I fell into the way of the Japanese people. Huang Long, who had already woken up, said to Xing Lei in a weak tone.

Huang Long woke up halfway through the retreat, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to cry out the name of the Yellow Tiger.

Cui Biao and Ahn Jae-hee had to try their best to persuade Huanglong to mourn and change.

Shun Hejun, who was rescued, also persuaded Huang Long to take care of his body.

And Lin Haijun faced his savior, without any words of comfort.

If there is no dissuasion from everyone, Huang Long is likely to die by jumping off a cliff after crying to commemorate his tragic death of his brother, but fortunately, Cui Biao and An Zaiji will not leave Huang Long, so they can be regarded as bringing Huang Long to Heilong safely

Mountain.

"Let's go. Eldest brother. Hurry to rest in the village. Xing Lei saw the blood stains left on Huang Long's mouth, thought that he was injured, and hurriedly replaced An in Ji, and personally helped Huang Long into the cottage.

"Big brother, you lie down and rest first. I'll let my men prepare the meal. Xing Lei put Huang Long on the bed and said with concern.

"Commander, you can sleep for a while." An Jaeji unfolded the quilt on the bed and gently covered Huanglong's body.

"Oops, cousin. Why is your arm bleeding so much? At the moment when An Zaiji stretched out his hand to cover Huang Long with a quilt, Xing Lei suddenly noticed that blood was constantly oozing out of An Zaiji's right arm.

"Yes, ma'am. Are you injured? Come, come and I'll have a look. Cui Biao, who was standing next to Xing Lei, also found the blood on his wife's body at this time, and hurriedly pulled An to the side.

Along the way, Cui Biao patronized and took care of Huanglong, who vomited blood and was unconscious, but he didn't even find the wound on Ji's body.

"It's fine. A little bit of a bruise. It'll be fine in a while. Ahn Jae-hee comforted everyone.

Cui Biao pulled Ann in front of him. Sure enough, there was a knife wound about five centimeters long on Ann Zaiji's right arm. Judging by the shape of the knife edge, the knife wound should be a scratch rather than a cut, so the knife wound is not too deep.

"You go and get the hemostat and bandages. Then find a clean room and ask Brother Cui Biao to bandage my cousin's wounds. Xing Lei said to Qiu Rui, the owner of the second village.

"Okay." Qiu Rui replied and led Cui Biao and An Zaiji to the outside of the house.

"Cui Biao, take good care of your wife." Huang Long, who was lying on the bed, said to Cui Biao.

"Don't worry, Lord. A little skin trauma, out of the way. Rest well. Ahn Jae-hee said to Huang Long.

"Big brother, you have a good rest. I'll come when I go. Cui Biao said to Huang Long.

"Okay, let's go." Huang Long raised his hand at Cui Biao and An Zaiji.

Cui Biao helped An Zaiji and walked out the door.

"Bothered my brother!" Seeing that Cui Biao and An Zaiji had already walked out of the door, Huang Long, who was lying on the bed, said to Xing Lei.

"Big brother. You start by lying down and resting for a while. I'll call you back when the meal is ready. Xing Lei said to Huang Long.

"Good. Thank you bro. Huang Long said weakly.

"Then I'll go out first. Big brother, take a good rest. After Xing Lei finished speaking to Huang Long, he led a few brothers in the village around him out of the door and gently brought the door over.

After Cui Biao finished bandaging An Zaiji's wounds, Xing Lei walked into the room where the two were and asked the two about Huanglong's injury.

Cui Biao and An Zaiji recounted to Xing Lei the whole process of Huang Long vomiting blood and falling into a coma after seeing his brother Huang Hu tragically die in battle.

"No wonder when you walked into the stockade, you didn't see the Yellow Tiger brothers. Ay! For the sake of those two wretched, good brothers, it's gone. I said, "Is it worth it for you?" Look at the bear-like look of the two princes when they entered the stockade! After listening to Cui Biao and An Zaiji's narration, Xing Lei couldn't help but sigh for Huang Hu's tragic death.

"Being in the government, I can't help myself!" Cui Biao had already learned the style of the eldest prince Linhaijun along the way, and when Xing Lei said this at this time, he felt indescribable sadness and regret for the brothers of the Tiger Guard Battalion who were killed and injured in this operation.

"yes. Look at the way of this road, the eldest prince is arrogant and domineering. The brethren died in vain. An Zaiji sat on the bed and said to Cui Biao beside him.

"In the course of a year, two of my eldest brother's brothers died one after another. Now he vomited blood and was injured. Ay! Cui Biao lamented.

"You mean that the Huang Biao brothers have also ......" Xing Lei asked Cui Biao with wide eyes in surprise.

Cui Biao told Xing Lei how Huang Biao died in order to save Ye Ruliu when he escorted the Daming brocade guards led by Luo Shiyin out of the mountain.

"It is said that Brother Huang Biao also died indirectly for the imperial court." After listening to Cui Biao's narration, Xing Lei said.

"Fortunately, the two princes were finally rescued safely. Brother Huanglong can be regarded as having an explanation for the imperial court. Ahn Jae-hee said.

"But the price is too high. You see, it is estimated that the brothers of the Tiger Guard Camp who came back alive are less than half of the original, and they are all good brothers of the Tiger Tail Cottage who were born and died with Brother Huang back then. Cui Biao said.

"If you want me to say, the eldest brother shouldn't go to the bullshit court. How free the brothers gathered in the mountains and forests. If those officials in the court could do something serious, they would not have been beaten so badly by the Japanese people.

"A good country, in a few months, was taken down by others without much effort. You say, what do those bullish government and army do on weekdays? Xing Lei said.

"Alright, cousin. Don't say these words in front of Brother Huanglong, he is sad enough. Ahn Jae-hee said.

"Alright, cousin. You two have a good rest in this room. I'll go see if the meal is ready. Xing Lei said, got up and walked out.

After dinner, everyone gathered in the house where Huanglong was resting

Speak.

Because An Zaiji was injured, Xing Lei asked her to go back to her room to rest.

The two princes have also settled down.

"Big brother, are you feeling better?" Xing Lei sat on the edge of the bed and asked Huang Long, who was reclining on the bed.

"It's okay. Worried the brethren. Huang Long said.

"Big brother, you must rest in the village for a few more days. Take good care of your body. Xing Lei said.

"Don't bother brother. Tomorrow at dawn, I'll go. ”

"But big brother, your body is still weak. Brother, my place has good air and is quiet. You listen to your brother. Don't rush to go. ”

"That's it, big brother. You'll be here for a few more days. It's been a long time since our brothers have seen each other. Cui Biao also persuaded Huang Long.

"No, I can't. Lord Li of the imperial court is still waiting for us to go back and make a business. Huang Long said.

"Big brother, what does he care about Lord Li and Lord Niu. That's it, let's take care of my body first. Xing Lei strongly persuaded Huang Long.

Just as Xing Lei was trying his best to persuade Huang Long to stay, Qiu Rui, the owner of the second village, suddenly rushed in from outside the door, and in his hands was the trembling Linhai Jun. Behind the two, followed by the crying An Jae-hime.

"Big brother, fuck this brute, while Miss An is alone in the house, sneak in with bad intentions. Fortunately, he was beaten out by Miss An. Entering the house, Qiu Rui angrily pushed Lin Haijun to the ground.

"Cousin, husband, this brute took advantage of my unpreparedness and did something to me." Ahn Jae-hee cried and said to Xing Lei and Cui Biao.

“**！ Brothers died in order to save you, but you did such a thing as a pig and a dog! Hearing that his wife was insulted, Cui Biao suddenly exploded in anger, he rushed forward and kicked Linhaijun, who was begging for mercy, to the corner of the wall.

"What is the use of keeping such a pig and a dog as a beast? See if I don't slash him with a knife! Xing Lei took out the treasure knife that Huang Long had just given him from his waist, walked over and grabbed Lin Haijun's collar and was about to cut it.

"Commander Huang save me. I don't dare anymore! Looking at the bright blade, Lin Haijun pleaded with Huang Long lying on the bed.

"Brother, slow down." Huang Longyao got up and said to Xing Lei.

"Big brother, this kind of prince will be a king in the future, and he must be a mediocre and unscrupulous king. Rather than waiting for him to plague the people when he becomes king in the future, it is better to kill him now. Xing Lei had already put the knife on Lin Haijun's neck.

"Yes, big brother. You see, with such a prince here, I am afraid that in the future, you and my brother will not have any good fruit to eat. Just slaughter him, you and my brother will follow Brother Xing Lei to fall into the grass again! Cui Biao said.

"Yes, big brother. It just so happens that my cottage wants to expand the number of people. With your joining, big brother, I am not afraid that the brothers in the vicinity will not come to join us. Wait a minute, I'll get rid of this brute first!" Xing Lei dragged Lin Haijun, who had collapsed to the ground in fright, like a dead pig, and walked out of the door.

"Brother......" Huang Long wanted to speak and stopped, not knowing whether to persuade Xing Lei for a while.

In fact, through this operation to rescue the two princes, Huang Long's heart was somewhat cold. More than half of his men had been killed or wounded in the operation, and the prince in front of him had not even said a word of gratitude. Now, they are doing such obscene things. It was difficult for Huang Long to come up with a suitable reason to persuade the two brothers, Xing Lei and Cui Biao, not to kill Lin Haijun.

At this moment, a Heilongshan brother who was in charge of standing guard at the mountain gate rushed in from outside the door, and he came to Xingleimen out of breath and said, "Report to the owner of the village, a large number of Japanese people are pouring down the mountain. They have surrounded the entire Black Dragon Mountain. Threatens to ask us to hand over the two princes. One of their little old men who spoke Korean said that as long as we handed over the two princes, they would never attack the cottage. ”

"Big brother, since you don't want this beast to live in the hands of our brother, just hand him over to the Japanese people along with his brother. lest the Black Dragon Mountain, which dragged Brother Xing Lei, suffer from the baptism of swords. Cui Biao said to Huang Long.

Cui Biao's words made Huang Long, who was still hesitating just now, completely dispel the idea of saving Linhaijun. As for him, who has always attached great importance to righteousness, he doesn't want to do things that affect his brothers.

"That'...... All right. You and my brother paid such a terrible price to rescue him. But what did he do? It is not worth it to suffer from swords and soldiers for the sake of him and the cottage of the Xing Lei brothers. Go, hand them both over to the Wakoku, and let them fall. After Huang Long finished speaking, he lay on the bed weakly and closed his eyes.

"Commander Huang, you can't die without help! If you save me, I will let my father give you a promotion, a great official! Lin Haijun struggled to turn around and pleaded with Huang Long who was lying on the bed.

"Let's go, you!" Xing Lei jerked Lin Haijun's collar and dragged Lin Haijun, who was like a dead dog, towards the door.

The Japanese people under the mountain also kept their promises, and after getting the two princes, they immediately withdrew their troops. Huwei Cottage was spared a catastrophe.

Since then, Huang Long, Cui Biao and An Zaiji's cottage in Xinglei have fallen back into the grass.
