Song Youliang looked at Zhao Ziming and said disdainfully: "What if this kid is a swindler and runs away by himself after introducing us into the elm forest, then what should we do?" ”

"This adult Mingjian~~ The little one is really surrendering, and the little one also wants to be loyal to the country, and he doesn't want to hide his head and tail in the elm forest for a lifetime~~~!" Zhao Ziming cried and prayed

"Let's take them back to the barracks first!" As soon as Song Youliang waved his hand, Xu Erduo and Feng Guan's subordinates immediately summoned ropes, pulled dozens of Yuyuan Army soldiers into a string like hairy crabs, and escorted them back to the barracks. At the same time, a team of soldiers was sent to escort Liu De and the county lord of Laiyang back to Jinan

After returning to the barracks, Song Youliang ordered all the captives to be quarantined one by one, and each of them asked them to draw a map of the elm forest. About half an hour later, the map drawn by the captives was unified in front of Song Youliang and Feng Guan

After some comparison, all the maps are similar, and the basic routes are the same. In the end, Song Youliang compared the road map drawn by Zhao Ziming, and sure enough, there was also an eight-point portrait

"If you want to deceive and draw fake pictures, it is impossible to draw them all the same~!" Feng Guan picked out a few copies and held them in his hand, "It seems that this Zhao Ziming is sincere in surrendering, then we can use him as a guide!" ”

Zhao Ziming was brought to the big tent of the Chinese army, and at this moment he had already put on the military uniform of the chief flag officer. "Little Zhao Ziming, meet the two generals~!" Zhao Ziming clenched his fists and knelt down on one knee

"I can learn it very quickly~!" Feng Guan said with a smile

"Less than two adults, the small ancestor is the battalion of Datong Mansion, and later came to Dongchang to settle down, but these years of drought and locusts have continued, and the grass has no choice but to fall under the cut off~!" Zhao Ziming's tone when he said this was very sincere

Song Youliang raised his hand and threw something at Zhao Ziming, Zhao Ziming raised his hand to catch it, spread out his palm and saw that it was a big silver ingot, fifty taels one, and the silver was very pure. "I want you to lead the officers and soldiers into the elm forest and find the entrances to those tunnels."

Zhao Ziming hurriedly stuffed the silver ingot into his arms, "What do you command, Zhao Ziming has done his best and died~~!" ”

Feng Guan couldn't help but snicker, sure enough, it was the sycophant of officialdom

Song Youliang smiled slightly, and suddenly kicked over a wooden box at his feet, and there was a lot of noise~~~ The silver ingots in the wooden box rolled to the ground, and each ingot was five taels. "Call your brothers in, take two ingots each, and then take the officers and soldiers to find the tunnel entrance in the elm forest, and block them all for me~~!"

"I have to order~~ mark down and thank the brothers for my lord~!" Zhao Ziming smiled brightly: "Let them come one by one I'm afraid it will disturb the peace of the adults, why don't you let the standard take it on your behalf?" ”

"No~~Let them line up outside the big tent one by one~!" Song Youliang said in an unquestionable tone

"It's ~~, sir!" Zhao Ziming was a little disappointed

As soon as he left, Feng Guan laughed and said, "I also somewhat believe that his ancestors are old soldiers, and at this time, this field has not forgotten to find an opportunity to deduct the reward of the soldiers!" ”

Song Youliang also shook his head with a smile

Subsequently, the Yuyuan army prisoners who came to receive the reward thanked them one by one. So Song Youliang and Feng Guan ordered their troops and horses, led by Zhao Ziming, and began to look for the tunnel entrance in the elm forest.

This was the first time Song Youliang had entered the elm forest, but he saw that the trees were towering, and the tall and dense canopy almost obscured the sky. A few specks of light fall into the forest through the dense canopy, but they dot the endless primeval forest with more mystery. The woods were dark and gloomy, and the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, dappled spots of light that accumulated thick fallen leaves, and instead of illuminating the forest path for the sergeants, they swayed like ghosts. In this silent and terrible wood, even stepping on a dead branch can make others nervous. Zhao Ziming was familiar with the way, and soon found several cellars where the Yuyuan Army stored weapons and grain.

"Make a mark~ send someone to transport it away!" Feng Guan ordered

Song Youliang said to Zhao Ziming: "Zhao Xiaoqi, you are doing a good job, but what we are looking for is a tunnel that can hide people, not an entrance." ”

"The small ones understand~~ It's just that the entrance to the tunnel is very secret, and even the small ones need to be distinguished by themselves~!" Zhao Ziming didn't dare to slack off at all, he bent down and searched every inch of land with his nose almost touching the ground

Suddenly, with a whoosh, a feather arrow shot out of nowhere flew out without any warning, and shot into Zhao Ziming's chest with a pop. Zhao Ziming fell down with a muffled snort, and his burly body fell to the ground, flying the fallen leaves on the ground together.

"Dodge arrows~~" Feng Guan shouted, and at the same time, he quickly hid behind a big tree. In the woods at this moment, apart from the rustle of leaves in the wind and the chirping of a few small insects from time to time, the only sound was the nervous and heavy breathing of the soldiers.

Song Youliang was squatting behind a stump six steps to the right of the Feng Pavilion, and the soldiers of the Ming army were also hiding behind the trees to avoid the arrows, and no one knew which direction the next feather arrow would come from, or who it would hit. And the opponent in the dark doesn't seem to be thinking about the next move, everyone is waiting for the opportunity.

Song Youliang was trying to find a way to deal with this ancient sniper, and after a while, he saw him take off his hood and slowly hold it up with his hands, poking his "head" out from behind the stump little by little. First the helmet, then the front sword, and gradually the upper half of the head was already showing the stump.

Whoosh~~Wow, the enemy in the darkness fired a second feather arrow, which hit Song Youliang's iron forehead. Judging from the position where the feather arrow hit the dough, Song Youliang could already tell that the enemy was in his two o'clock direction. Song Youliang took a bow from the hand of an archer beside him, and when he was about to reach out to draw the feather arrow, he found that the archer's quiver had long since disappeared. In desperation, Song Youliang could only take his pocket and pull out the feather arrow inserted in it. The feather arrow penetrated the hood, and the barb on the arrow hooked the inner wall of the pocket, Song Youliang pulled it out in a hurry, "Rely on~~" Song Youliang scolded, the arrow shaft was pulled out, but the arrow was pulled out into a bald arrow.

Just when Song Youliang was about to find other archers to get arrows, he swept his eyes and saw Zhao Ziming's corpse. Isn't there a ready-made feather arrow stuck in Zhao Ziming's chest? But Zhao Ziming's body was two steps away from him, and if he went out rashly, he was likely to become the target of the other party. "It's out." Song Youliang shot the bald arrow on the string indiscriminately, using it to disrupt the other party's vision, and then pounced on Zhao Ziming's corpse like a cheetah.

Whoosh~ The third feather arrow rushed towards Song Youliang with a sound of breaking the sky, Song Youliang hurriedly rolled on the spot, rolled over Zhao Ziming's corpse, and at the same time pulled out the feather arrow inserted in Zhao Ziming's corpse. With a snatch, the third feather arrow was shot on the trunk of the tree, Song Youliang hurriedly got up and pulled the bow for a full moon, and picked up the feather arrow that killed Zhao Ziming and shot it towards the position that had been determined. Whoosh~~ The feather arrow shot by Song Youliang disappeared into the darkness with the sound of breaking through the air, and two seconds later, after a clattering sound of a tree branch breaking, a heavy object fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

Seeing that the shooter hiding in the shadows fell to the ground, everyone still did not come out from behind the tree immediately, and God knows if there would be a second one hiding in the shadows. It was only after a stick of incense that everyone cautiously walked out from behind the tree. Song Youliang is protected by a shield wall composed of ten brand swordsmen

The man who hit the arrow was a middle-aged man in his forties, and he had not completely lost his breath at the moment. "Do you know him?" Feng Guan found the surrendered Yuyuan Army to identify

"He is the fourth in charge and the seven~~" someone recognized

"You ~~You traitors~~" Ren Qi scolded with a bitter expression

Feng Guan frowned and said to the soldiers beside him, "Let him shut up~!" ”

"Deling~"

As he spoke, the soldier pulled out a dagger from his boot, and stabbed it vertically from a third of Ren Qi's throat. "Goo~Goo~~" Ren Qi's body twitched violently, but he couldn't even scream, and blood kept coming out of his mouth and was accompanied by the ** sound of "Goo Wow ~ Goo Wow" from time to time. The little soldier didn't care, turned the dagger in his hand, and cut Ren Qi's trachea, larynx, and neck arteries one by one. At this time, Ren Qi was completely dead, even the sound of cooing was gone, and his body stopped twitching.

"Alright, almost!" The little soldier sighed, Ren Qi's head was still connected to the neck vertebrae, the little soldier took the dagger ** the gap between the cervical vertebrae, raised his left hand and slapped it hard to the handle of the dagger, and then warped it, the technique was extremely skillful, and Ren Qi's head bone rolled down at once. Then, Xiao Bing raised Ren Qi's bloody head in front of Feng Guan and Song Youliang.

Song Youliang looked at Zhao Ziming on the ground and asked the Yuyuan Army prisoner: "Does Zhao Ziming have a family?" ”

One of them replied, "Both parents are here, and there is a wife and a son!" ”

"How much is Xiaoqi's pension?" Song Youliang asked Xu Erduo, who was holding the handle of the knife and standing beside him cautiously

"One hundred taels~" Xu Erduo replied

"All are compensated~!" Song Youliang waved his hand and casually ordered two Yuyuan Army prisoners, "You carry him away, bury him alive, and after finding his family, the official will give them one hundred taels of silver~!" ”

"One hundred taels?" Several Yuyuan Army prisoners were stunned, they surrendered out of desperation, thinking that it would be good to be alive, but they didn't expect that there would be a bereavement for the dead?

"Is this true?" One of them stammered

"Nonsense, my adults spit on the ground, they can smash a pit, they have always been good at talking, and they never break their promises~!" Xu Erduo gave him a blank look

The man hurriedly knelt down to Song Youliang, "I kowtowed to the adults for his family~!" The man said and kowtowed
