Chapter 598: Trickery

The final place set by Li Huaitang to 'trade' with the Murong family was near the third ferry port of the Minjiang River. There are more than a dozen big ships moored by him at the ferry, and they can escape along the river immediately after completing the task, leaving behind an unsolved case for the ages, which gives the officials of Jiannan Province a headache.

A few miles away from the ferry, dozens of strong men with muddy faces stopped the road, led by Li Huaitang, the second-class auxiliary general of the imperial court, and today, his appropriate identity is a kidnapper.

On a big tree on his left, there was an old man in rags and dying, the old man was none other than the head of the Murong family, Murong Yalong, who Chu Tiankuo had never dreamed of eating his 'meat'.

"Thanks to the help of my brother-in-law this time, otherwise, my Chu family would not be able to hate it for a hundred years."

Chu Tiankuo stood beside Li Huaitang, his mood was 'excited', and he was promised to kill the enemy himself.

The Chu family is a big clan in Shannan Road, forced to migrate because of natural disasters, and fell in Jiannan Road, most of the rest defected to the waterway beyond the reach of the Murong family's power, and gradually recovered some vitality in a few years, but unfortunately, because of Chu Tiankuo's impulsiveness, a lot of people were buried.

After a bloody battle, there were only eight people left in the living force of the Chu family.

"Remember, you are the white stripe in the 'wave', and you must not use your own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths. Find a way to 'lure' the enemy into the water to fight. ”

Looking at the only remaining Chu family, Li Huaitang deeply regretted. These people are well versed in water 'sex', know how to steer boats, and belong to high-tech arms, but they have been squandered by their reckless brother-in-law.

Hearing this, Chu Tiankuo was ashamed and ashamed, fighting on a river boat, he was an expert, but he had no experience in dealing with cavalry.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, if you need manpower, I will go back to my hometown in Shannan Province immediately, as long as they hear about my brother-in-law's name, they will definitely be willing to come to help in the war, recruit hundreds of people, and set foot on the Murong family in one fell swoop."

Chu Tiankuo sneered and embarrassedly put forward a suggestion to save face.

Li Huaitang shook his head, rejected his brother-in-law's kindness, and sneered faintly: "You don't need so many people to destroy the Murong family." ”

The extermination needs to be carried out quietly, and those who shoot do not need to shoot. After all, Datang still has laws, and Li Huaitang is not a bandit in the real sense, there are many people, and it is inevitable to vent his 'exposed' style, which is very unfavorable to him.

"Huh? But," Chu Tiankuo exclaimed, instinctively glanced at the more than thirty soldiers around him, and said worriedly: "We, that, the Murong family is too powerful to deal with!" ”

"You're trying to say we're understaffed, but I think it's enough." Li Huaitang smiled, very confident.

"Brother-in-law, be careful, this time the Murong family gathered from all over the country and brought a lot of guards, although there are not many people who deliver the ransom, but there must be a large number of people behind them."

Li Huaitang looked up into the distance and said with a smile: "The people you said will never get here." ”

Chu Tian was puzzled, and his eyes were attracted by a ride in the woods in the distance.

The scout came to report, and the Murong family's gold convoy stopped.

"Hehe, I finally saw something wrong, interesting. It's a pity it's too late. Go, will they go! ”

It's like a game, after a round of chariots and horses, and then to the decisive battle of generals.

Murong Yahao met the kidnappers as he wished, but to his surprise, the kidnappers were all smeared with mud and faces, unwilling to show their true faces.

Seeing the kidnappers, he calmed down and asked coldly, "Who are you?" What about my eldest brother? ”

"Dog thieves are here to sow!"

Chu Tiankuo responded and dragged Murong Yalong to the ground from the back of the pack horse, stepped on his head, and the Tang knife in his hand kept gesturing.

"Well, don't kill my big brother. Come on, give them gold! ”

Murong Yahao seemed to feel very sorry for his brother, and waved his hand, asking his subordinates to carry boxes of gold to the opposite side.

Li Huaitang was quite surprised, the person opposite actually did not ask for the ransom to be paid and the replacement was carried out at the same time, could it be that they were not afraid that they would regret tearing up the ticket after receiving the ransom?

The wheels of the ox carts have been removed, and the manual handling of gold is as slow as a snail.

Li Huaitang sneered at Murong Yahao: "Are you waiting for reinforcements behind you?" ”

Seeing that the trick of delaying time was exposed, Murong Yahao's face changed several times, and he motioned for noble action.

"Bang bang bang!" Three times in a row, in the sky, three flames bloomed, visible more than ten miles away.

"You're dying, lay down your weapons quickly, and I may spare your whole corpse!" Murong Yahao hid behind his family and shouted.

The imaginary scene of killing hostages to vent their anger or scattering birds and beasts did not appear, and there was no desperate backlash to break the net. Instead, the kidnappers were as calm as ever, seemingly self-explanatory, leisurely admiring the fireworks display.

Murong Ya looked at each other. What do you mean? Didn't they see us signaling?

The two sides confronted each other strangely until the sound of rumbling horses' hooves was heard.

"Haha, you're screwed, bunch of idiots!"

Murong Yahao laughed, and behind him, the sound of planned horses' hooves sounded in his ears as scheduled. Although the cavalry of the Murong family did not enter the stream, it was more than enough to deal with the kidnappers on foot, the only regret was that the kidnappers did not take the initiative to kill the hostages, and Murong Yalong was about to die in the 'chaos' army, so he was saddled with the name of murdering the head of the family to seize the throne.

The cavalry came.

"Kill them all!" Murong Yahao was in high spirits and beckoned the knight behind him to move forward.

Obviously, today is a day of frequent accidents, and the knights who came to help him did not give him face and turned a deaf ear.

"Damn! Didn't hear me ......"

Murong Yahao looked back angrily, there were many knights in his eyes, but none of them he knew. The infinite horror instantly hit Murong Yahao's heart, and the habitual 'sex' turned to noble, huh? Ge Laozi, what about people?

"No mercy!"

It was Li Huaitang's turn to exert his might.

The knight responded, jumped off his horse, and rushed to the gold convoy with his sword raised.

Chu Tiankuo was dumbfounded, the change in the situation almost made his brain knotted, and he couldn't figure out what was going on? reacted and wanted to step forward to help, but was stunned, and came to ride violently, and the momentum swept away, leaving no one alive where he passed.

Perhaps frightened by the brutal God of Killing, the remaining escorts surrounded Murong Yahao and rushed towards Li Huaitang and the others.

"None of them will be left!" Li Huaitang drew his sword to meet him, the knife fell over the head, and one of the Murong family guards who rushed the most fiercely broke into two and fell to the ground with a bang.

It turned out to be a hellish tragedy for an amateur hooligan to meet a professional soldier.

The slaughter began and ended suddenly, not in mercy, but because all the people who were killed fell in pools of blood.

gold, a hundred thousand taels, human heads, two hundred and eighty. No, there is another one waiting to be cut, at the edge of the woods, the eight heroes of the Chu family 'served' Murong Yalong with the punishment of Ling Chi, accompanied by a weak inhuman scream, pieces of bloody fresh 'meat' were peeled off the tortured person's body, and were thrown into the dirt, waiting for the crows hovering in the sky to devour.

In the grass deep in the woods, the only survivor, Gao Shang, trembled, who had witnessed the horrific slaughter, and the horror and wail of despair before his death tugged at his heartstrings for a long time......
