Chapter 93: The Appeasement of the South Road (Finale)

Tang Lichen left all his brothers behind, and hurried his horse under the disdainful gaze of others, and looked behind him as he ran.

He looked behind him from time to time and found that the officials and soldiers were busy chasing and killing the brothers who were cannon fodder in the palace, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Brothers, I'm sorry, we will definitely burn more paper money for you every year today." ”

Tang Lichen pretended to finish this emotion, then continued to ride his horse and whip, galloping on the official road, and when he ran for a while, he suddenly found that a team of official cavalry appeared in front of him.

The knight in the lead of the cavalry of this group had a grinning human head hanging on his horse, and Tang Lichen took a look at it, but found that it was Miao Mei, his former partner.

"Miao Mei is dead, this is the official army!?"

When Tang Lichen saw such a large group of officers and soldiers at this time, he was naturally so frightened that his scalp exploded, and his soul flew out of the sky, and he didn't even have the courage to escape.

And the leading Sun Wuxian saw Tang Lichen, his mouth was crooked when he smiled, and he said happily to the left and right: "Who said that killing and surrendering is ominous, don't you see that there is a big fish sent to our mouths?" I said, what are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and send him on the road, so you can be a companion with Miao Mei. ”

When the knights received the order, they carried steel knives and went straight to Tang Lichen, who had been stunned and motionless.

The knife moves, the blood flies, the head falls, the person falls, the horse neighses, and the matter is finished.

Sun Wuxian saw Tang Lichen ambushing, so he ordered: "Pick up the head of this guy, search him, he is a leader, maybe there is treasure on his body, after the search, take his horse, let's go, go back and report to the adult." ”

After Sun Wuxian gave the order, his own knights dismounted and conducted an all-round, multi-angle carpet search for Tang Lichen.

After the knight finished searching, he held a large pile of jewels and reported to Sun Wuxian with a look of astonishment: "Grandpa, this guy has a lot of treasures, including 10 pearl necklaces, 3 night pearls, 20 jade pendants, and 15 gold hairpins. ”

Sun Wuxi listened to the return of his subordinates, and said with a look of surprise: "Being a little thief can generate so much money, so that we want to be a thief." ”

"Grandpa, what's so good about being a thief, you see, aren't they all beheaded." A knight kindly reminded.

When Sun Wuxian heard these words, he immediately shot back angrily: "Why is your donkey day's EQ so low, let's just talk about it, describe the thief to get money quickly, you don't know this, night school is in vain, right?" ”

"Don't, grandpa, aren't we just joking with you, who doesn't know that you are a celebrity under Second Master Liu, and you have a bright future in Jingbian Fort, how can you become a thief." The knight was angry when he saw that Sun Wuxian was angry, and hurriedly flattered him with a smile on his face.

After hearing these words, Sun Wuxian smiled and said, "Don't say this kind of thing again, let's keep a low profile, we have to keep a low profile." ”

When the knights heard this, they all laughed, and even said that they knew, they knew.

After everyone frolicked for a while, Sun Wuzhi said with a straight face: "Don't laugh anymore, get out of here quickly and meet Liu Erye as soon as possible." ”

So everyone turned on their horses and followed the direction of Liu Renjie's pursuit of the thieves to find the large army.

Sun Wuxian ran away with his knights for a long time, and suddenly saw smoke and dust billowing on the opposite side, and a large group of knights came towards him, and the first person was Liu Renjie.

When Liu Renjie saw Sun Wuxian coming, he asked loudly from afar: "You came from there, have you ever seen Tang Lichen's house?" ”

When Sun Wuxian heard this, he immediately replied proudly: "Second master, we are lucky, we happened to meet Tang Lichen who escaped on a single horse, and now his head is in our hands." ”

"Oh, you're really my blessing."

When Liu Renjie heard this, his previous depression suddenly dissipated, he rode his horse to Sun Wuxi's side, and asked in a stumbling voice: "Tang Lichen told you to kill, what about Miao Mei?" Where is Miao Mei? ”

"Miao Mei was chased by us and had no way to escape, so she wanted to surrender, but I remember that the adults said that all the real thieves would be killed, so I killed them all, second master, do you think I did the right thing?"

"You did the right thing, if all the thieves are like them, don't surrender first, and surrender if they can't win, then how can you do it, kill all these unknown people, and set an example for the remaining thieves."

"By the way, Second Master, you just ask me how I did, dare to ask you how you chased and killed those cavalry results?"

"Originally, Tang Lichen escaped, and the rest were all killed, and now you kill Tang Lichen, then we will kill all the real thieves of Miao Meibu in this meeting."

"Then, second master, let's go back and return to the adult."

"That's nature, let's go."

Liu Renjie shouted, and all the knights urged Ma Li to go in the direction where Liu Renyu was.

**************

After Liu Renyu sent cavalry to chase and kill the rogue real thief, he has been directing his infantry to chase and kill the rogue foot soldiers.

The previous thieves' foot soldiers were killed by the foot soldiers of the Jingbian Fort Army, and the whole army collapsed and fled for their lives.

Seeing the collapse of the thief being beaten, Yang Desheng, who had itchy hands, asked to fight, Zhang Tieniu saw that Yang Desheng was going to kill the enemy, he also hurriedly asked for battle, and even took Ma Wenshan in the hope that he could go to meet the thief for a while, so as to move his muscles and bones.

Seeing the eagerness of the three generals under him, Liu Renyu nodded and agreed: "Go ahead." ”

"Okay." The three fierce generals of Jingbian Fort all happily held their own swords and roared into the enemy formation.

These three fierce generals joined the battle group, and immediately killed the thieves and foot soldiers crying and shouting for their mothers, only hating their fathers and mothers for having two legs less, and they couldn't run away.

Seeing that they couldn't escape, many of the thieves' foot soldiers simply threw away their blades and knelt on the ground, and bitterly forged: "The little one is willing to surrender, and the military master will spare his life." ”

Many soldiers in Jingbian Fort were instinctively stunned when they saw the thieves surrendering, but Ma Wenshan adhered to Liu Renyu's meaning of 'leaving no real thieves', and slashed the thieves who had surrendered to death.

The other rogue foot soldiers will be killed when they see the surrender, so they have to fight back desperately, but the Jingbian Fort army has thick armor, and it has been drilled for a long time, and they can still cooperate with each other tacitly, so even if the rogue foot soldiers want to resist stubbornly, they can't pose too much threat to the Jingbian Fort army.

At this time, on the battlefield, most of the rogue's foot soldiers were killed, and only a few rogues who could be called scud-level were able to run a little farther for the time being by virtue of their superior foot strength.

Seeing this, Liu Renyu immediately sent soldiers who were also running fast, telling them to take off their armor and pursue them easily.

You must know that the soldiers of the Jingbian Fort Army run cross-country with a weight of 30 pounds every day, and now they take off their armor and naturally run extremely fast.

When those who were proud of their superior foot strength and were able to escape with this trick, they were not wary of a sudden loud shout in their ears: "Where do the thieves escape, they will not die obediently." ”

"Huh!?" These thieves were inexplicably surprised, and had to turn around and fight with the pursuing soldiers.

In the end, the thief was still killed.

In this way, the soldiers of the Jingbian Fort Army gradually slaughtered all the thieves.

When the soldiers of the Jingbian Fort Army killed the thieves, the displaced people who had been driven to attack the official army before saw the ferocity of the official army and even killed those who surrendered, they were all trembling with fright, and they all knelt on the ground, did not dare to raise their heads, and quietly waited for Liu Renyu to come and drop them.

After the thieves were killed, Liu Renyu rode to the homeless people on horseback and said loudly: "For the sake of you being coerced and obeyed by thieves, I will not hold you responsible, I only ask you if you are willing to accept Zhao'an." ”

The homeless people thought that Liu Renyu was going to kill them, but they didn't seem to have this intention, so they all replied excitedly: "The villain is willing to accept Zhao'an." ”

"Very good," Liu Renyu nodded, and then said to his subordinates: "Go and search to see if the thieves have any collections?" ”

Some soldiers from Jingbian Fort went to search for the donkey carts and wheelbarrows carried by the thieves.

After searching for a while, they reported: "My lord, we have found a total of 3,000 taels of silver, and I don't know how much the rest of the treasures are worth?" ”

"I know," Liu Renyu agreed, and then said to Liu Wuguo: "Brother, let's divide the seized silver in half, as for the treasure to play, let's save it first, and when we get to Yulin, sell the money and then share the profits, what do you think?" ”

Liu Wuguo replied with a smile: "It's all up to you." ”

Liu Renyu nodded, and then ordered his subordinates to clean up the battlefield.

Not long after, Liu Renjie also returned safely with his knights.

Among the returning knights, there were many knights who hung their heads in the saddle like this, and the horses galloped all the way, and the heads rolled up and down, looking terrifying.

However, Liu Renyu has already integrated into this era, and such scenes are commonplace, so he asked without changing his face and heartbeat: "Renjie, how are things going?" ”

When Liu Renjie heard his general's question, he turned over and dismounted, bowed down and replied: "If you go back to your lordship, all the real thieves have been killed, and Miao Mei and Tang Lichen have all been ambushed." ”

"Very good," Liu Renyu first clapped his hands and admired, and then ordered: "Now that we have recruited nearly 2,400 displaced people, and the food is not enough, let's set off and go to Suide Prefecture to buy some food first, and then make a strategy." ”

When everyone heard this, they all did their own things, and then Liu Renyu took the displaced people of Zhao'an, the seized money, and the horses in the direction of Suide.

***********

At this time, at the head of Suidezhou City, a man dressed in black, with a flag on his back, dressed as a samurai, half-knelt on the ground, and reported to Li Zhizhou: "Zhouzun, great news, the officials and soldiers have killed all the thieves besieging the city, and we are safe in Suide." ”

When Li Zhizhou heard this, he was pleasantly surprised and said, "Is this true? ”

"Seriously."

"Very good, very good, then since the official army has repelled the thieves, aren't they rushing to our Suide."

"Exactly."

"Then what are you waiting for, Xu Tongzhi, you go and prepare some pigs, sheep, and grain, and go to the labor army with me."

After the excited Li Zhizhou finished the arrangement, he led his subordinates to walk down the city wall and walked out from the open city gate, intending to meet the incoming officers and soldiers.

However, it was said that Liu Renyu was walking on the road with a large group of people, and when he was thinking about how much silver he would spend to buy food, he suddenly saw the gate of Suidezhou City wide open, and a middle-aged man dressed in a cyan official robe and a civil official was walking towards him with a large number of people.

"What's going on?" Liu Renyu asked Liu Wuguo beside him.

Liu Wuguo smiled and replied happily: "I really didn't expect it, that big turban actually brought his men to treat us, this local official is stronger than the one in Mizhi, but Brother Xian, after all, he is a civil official, so we have to be respectful." ”

When Liu Renyu heard this, he nodded and said, "That's natural, let's go and meet this state venerable." ”

After the two finished talking, they continued to ride their horses until they were still 50 steps away from Li Zhizhou, then turned over and dismounted, walked for a while, and walked to Li Zhizhou, before they all bowed and saluted: "Humble Liu Renyu (the last general Liu Wuguo), I have seen the state honor." ”

Seeing this, Li Zhizhou immediately stepped forward to support the two military attachΓ©s, and said again and again: "The two of you don't need to be polite, our Suide can only be preserved by the two of us, and this official specially asked people to send food to treat you." Originally, I should have invited you to gather in the city, but because of the thieves' meticulous work and the fire in the city, it is not very elegant, so I wronged you to camp outside the city. ”

Liu Renyu was moved by the good attitude of this Zhizhou, and he immediately bowed down and replied: "What did the governor say, it is our duty to exterminate the thieves, how dare we take credit." ”

"Hey, don't say these kind words, you are indeed meritorious, so take food, camp and rest, the official will go to the city to deal with some government affairs, and when the city is stable, I will come to talk to you."

Li Zhizhou had to go back to the city to deal with the aftermath at this time, so he could only greet the two generals first, say a few kind words, and express his gratitude.

When Liu Renyu heard this, he replied: "Although Zhou Zun is busy, I hope you can do a favor." ”

"What's the busy?"

"Please send a few merchants who buy rice to the lowly office, and the lowly position will find them in trouble."

"Okay, what's the difficulty in this matter, you wait, after the official returns, he will send someone to find a rice merchant to come to you."

"Xie Zhouzun."

"Well, then you guys settle down first." After Li Zhizhou finished speaking, he took his subordinates back to Suide to inspect the firefighting.

Liu Renyu and others sent Li Zhizhou away, so they first asked people to build a Beijing Temple outside the city, and then recruited Wang Zuo to watch.

When Wang Zuohang saw Jingguan, he was naturally frightened, and the two were trembling, Liu Renyu took advantage of the situation and asked him to go to Zhao'an to kill Ji San'er, Wang Zishun, Zhang Shusheng and other thieves who were still near Yan'an.

Wang Zuo took the order, and went to Qingjian, Anding and other places alone, and told Liu Renyu's department that Liu Renyu's department was extremely brutal and all Miao Mei's troops were killed.

Ji San'er, Wang Zishun, Zhang Shusheng and others were a little afraid when they heard about this, and they also heard about Liu Renyu's construction of a Jingguan outside Suide City, and they decided to accept Zhao'an after confirming that they could keep the stolen money and women after being recruited by the official army.

As a result, the rebellion of thieves on Yansui South Road was temporarily appeased.
