Zeng Xiancheng and Yang Inspector thought that they were dead, but they didn't want to change the situation and the situation reversed, and those thieves who were still dancing their teeth and claws before, and the fierce and vicious thieves were like headless flies at this time, huddled into a pile in groups of three or five, competing for the opportunity to escape.

These thieves, who were comrades-in-arms a few minutes ago, fought hard in order to snatch the chance to live, and they were ruthless.

Only the most ferocious people can seize the chance to escape, and those who are poor and not too fierce see that they can't get the opportunity to escape, so they have no choice but to shout and jump down from the city.

Jumping from a wall nearly 6 meters high is no joke, and anyone who jumps off the wall will either die on the spot or will be half-dead and wailing.

Zeng Xiancheng and Yang Inspector were stunned for a long time to watch the wonderful performances of the thieves, and then they looked at each other excitedly as if they had just woken up from a big dream, and then Zeng Xiancheng said with infinite joy: "I didn't think that the imperial court would send reinforcements so quickly, I can wait for life, and I can survive and be stable!" ”

"Wait for the army to shoot away the thieves, and we should take the county fathers and elders to reward the officers and soldiers." Inspector Yang also responded happily, and then he didn't forget the reward.

"This is natural, when the army repels the thieves, we will go out of the city to reward." Zeng Xiancheng replied with a smile.

**********

But he said that Mantianxing was a senior thief in the end, and the timing of his escape was very good, and as soon as he saw the Jingbian Fort army appear, he didn't say a word, and rode his horse and ran away.

The movement of the stars is fast, and the movements of his subordinates are not slow.

When his men saw that the situation was not good, they quickly mounted their horses, slammed their horses' bellies, waved their whips, and urged their horses, and followed the starry sky, and galloped all the way to the northeast.

In order to escape, Man Tianxing has left behind all the new thieves and the money and food he has robbed these days, according to his expectations, the general officers and soldiers will be busy cutting the heads of those new thieves, and then coax him to leave the money and food, as for himself, as most of the time, he can successfully escape.

Normally, the starry calculations would have succeeded, but this time, he had clearly miscalculated, for he found that the officers and soldiers behind him were not interested in the heads of the thieves and the money and food piled on the wagons, and instead pursued them as real thieves.

"On Donkey Day, these officers and soldiers actually didn't cut off their heads, didn't grab money and food, and chased after us. I'm afraid that something will happen this time, so let's run quickly. ”

Man Tianxing turned back while running, but he found that the officers and soldiers were chasing closer and closer, and he suddenly tightened his chrysanthemum, and felt a surge of urine coming, and he was frightened and hurriedly beckoned his subordinates to run faster, faster, faster.

As he sped to escape, the stars kept whipping their mounts with their whips in order to make their horses run faster. His mount is flesh and blood, and even if the skin is thicker, it can't stand him from beating so hard.

So, it didn't take long for the starry mount to be scarred by the beatings, and in some places it was already peeled open from repeated beatings, but the horse's speed did not improve much.

Seeing that his mount was useless, Man Tianxing scolded hatefully: "You stupid beast on donkey days, if you don't run faster, when Lao Tzu runs out, I will kill you and eat meat." ”

The horse couldn't understand what the stars were saying, because it still didn't run very fast. When the stars saw this, they did not speak, but continued to beat the horses with their whips.

In this way, the Jingbian Fort Army chased the thieves for a while, and the stronger Jingbian Fort Army Zhang Tieniu was already approaching the thieves.

When Zhang Tieniu saw that the distance between the thieves and his men and horses had narrowed to 60 paces, and he had already entered the range of the bow and arrow, he immediately ordered loudly: "Zhang Gong, shoot!" ”

When he had given the order, he took control of the horse with his feet, and then took out his two-stone strong bow from the saddle and took it into his hand, and put a heavy arrow on the bow, and shouted, "Open." ”

The two-stone strong bow was pulled into a full moon state by him, and after a rough glance, he shouted, "Go!" ”

'Whew', the heavy arrow came out of the string, with a burst of sound breaking through the air, and flew straight ahead of a fleeing thief.

The heavy arrow flew in the air for a while, and then, like an eye, with a 'poof', it tore through the thief's thin clothes and went straight into the thief's heart.

The thief was struck by this heavy arrow, and suddenly felt a strong force pushing him hard in the back, and then he leaned forward, rolled off his horse, and in the blink of an eye he was trampled by his own horse that followed behind, and he could not die again.

When the soldiers of Zhang Tieniu's department saw that they had hit the enemy, they shouted in unison: "Zhang Ye's divine arrow is invincible." ”

"Set an example for you, just follow our Lao Tzu, so that you can kill the enemy." Zhang Tieniu heard the cheers of his subordinates, first smiled, and then ordered his subordinates to kill the enemy quickly.

Zhang Tieniu's men and horses were ordered, and those knights who could bend their bows and shoot arrows on their horses immediately pulled a stone bow in their hands into a full moon shape, aimed at the thieves in front of them, and shot out with an arrow. Then, there was a bow, and two arrows were sent out in a row.

The archers of the Jingbian Fort Army shot nearly 100 feather arrows in a short period of time, because the archery skills of different soldiers were different, and the archery on horseback was really almost meaningless, and these nearly 100 feather arrows only killed more than 20 thieves.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers were far away, they released arrows, and their side had no power to fight back, and their hearts were even more worried.

And just as he was thinking about a way to get out, he didn't watch out for the snow on the official road in front of him, and suddenly several tripping ropes flicked up.

A few of the thieves who rushed ahead to open the way could not contain their momentum, and when their legs tripped over the rope, they fell to the ground with the men and horses.

When these thieves fell to the ground, and before they could recover their strength, a large group of soldiers wearing red mandarin duck fat jackets and dressed as Ming soldiers shouted and killed the generals, one by one, and killed these thieves who fell to the ground on the spot. Then, countless cavalry rushed out of the woods on both sides and took down the thieves of the Starry Circle.

Seeing that the escape route was blocked by the officers and soldiers, and there was a large group of officers and soldiers chasing behind, the situation was already extremely critical, he hurriedly ordered from all sides: "Spread out, run towards the mountain, run off one counts as one, quickly!" ”

After he had given the order, the soldier abandoned his horse and climbed up the hill beside the road, thinking that if he ran to the hill he would escape as usual, but this time he had completely miscalculated.

However, it is said that Liu Wuguo, under the leadership of Sun Wuxi, took the path and ran to the small forest east of Anding County, and after arranging the tripping rope and ambush soldiers, and considering that the thieves were all mountaineers, they would drill into the mountains and forests at every turn, so he ambushed more than 200 people on the mountains on both sides in advance.

At this time, Mantianxing had to take his men to climb the mountain with no way out, but halfway through the climb, he suddenly heard someone on the top of the mountain shouting in unison: "Kill the thief!" ”

Then the flag waved, and countless red-clothed officers and soldiers appeared on the top of the mountain, rushing down the hillside.

"Oh mother! What a! Man Tianxing raised his eyes at this time and found that all the escape routes were officers and soldiers, some of his subordinates were being slaughtered by the officers and soldiers, some were about to be slaughtered, and some simply knelt on the ground very neatly, threw their weapons, and shouted loudly: "The military master spares his life, and the small one is willing to surrender." ”

Seeing such a situation, Man Tianxing resolutely decided to use a trump card, he immediately decided to surrender, after all, the official army does not kill and surrender, and the current trilateral governor Yang He is advocating appeasement, as long as he surrenders in time, the worst can be mixed with a place to find a place to put the ending, he is a senior thief, of course, he understands business.

So Mantianxing threw away all the blades on his body early, returned to the official road below, knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "The military master spares his life, and the little one is willing to surrender." ”

When the thieves saw that their leaders had knelt down and surrendered, they no longer had the heart to resist, so the voice of 'the military master spares his life, and the little one is willing to surrender' resounded.

Yang Desheng, Zhang Tieniu, Ma Wenshan and Wang Zuojiao, who had been chasing and killing the thieves for a long time, saw that the thieves had not fought a few rounds and surrendered resolutely, so they stopped their horses in a little depression.

Then Yang Desheng, the most senior of these people, said to Wang Zuo, who had just joined the gang: "Go, lock up these surrendered thieves, take them to Anding County, and wait for Lord Liu to leave." ”

"Yes, Master Yang."

Wang Zuohang agreed, and when he was about to go to lock up the thieves, he didn't watch out for Liu Wuguo suddenly riding a horse and galloping to several military attaches in Jingbian Fort.

At this time, Liu Renyu was not there, and Liu Wuguo was the highest-ranking military general here, so everyone temporarily stopped moving and saw what Liu Wuguo ordered.

I saw Liu Wuguo smile and ask a few military attaches of Jingbian Fort: "Didn't your adults pursue with you?" ”

"Returning to General Liu's words, our family is now calming down the city to appease the people who are being coerced. The lowly rank was ordered to pursue the thieves to this point. Yang Desheng is not good at words, but the questions and answers between him and Liu Wuguo are handled by Ma Wenshan.

"Oh, you've worked hard, the thieves have all surrendered, we're done with this battle, it's a big victory."

Liu Wuguo won a big victory with zero casualties among his own people, and his mood was naturally very good.

Ma Wenshan was very happy to see Liu Wuguo, so he took the opportunity to ask: "General Liu, what do you think of these surrendered thieves?" ”

"I have locked up the leader of this gang of thieves, whose name is full of stars, and I will leave the other thieves to you to lock up." Liu Wuguo only had to hold the stars in the sky and get a first credit, and the rest of the minions would be handed over to the Jingbian Fort Army for escort.

"Yes, General Liu, let's do it." Ma Wenshan agreed, and then ordered Wang Zuo Hang: "Zuo Hang, go quickly, tie up those thieves who surrendered in a string, and pull them back to settle down." ”

"Yes, Master Ma."

Wang Zuohang agreed, and then led his subordinates to take out ropes and string the surrendered thieves together one by one, and then all the officers and soldiers rode on horses and dragged these thieves to Anding County.

These thieves were bound by ropes, and if they didn't run faster, they would fall down and bring down a large number of their own people, and then the people who hung on the left side of the king would not do it, and they thought that the thieves were walking slowly, so they jumped down from their horses, took sticks, and beat the thieves well, and only beat these thieves crying and calling for their mothers.

Then, when the fight was over, he rode on his horse and dragged the thieves to Anding.
