Chapter 233: Escape through the Secret Passage

At this moment, a shout came from the wall, and a short and fat middle-aged man leaned out on the wall, shouting at the top of his voice: "To the commander of Li Dashuai, in the lower Suo-Myanmar Tusi Zaal, the subordinates have always strictly obeyed the Yunnan decree, maintained the authority of the marshal, and did not do anything against the marshal, why did the imperial army attack our So-Myan?" ”

Li Yice rode a few steps closer to the wall, and said coldly: "Listen to the anti-thief Zaal, you colluded with Wang Chuan to attack the Yunnan garrison and the county seat, trying to kill important ministers of the imperial court, and plotting to subvert the Yunnan regime of the Han Dynasty. ”

"As long as you capture Wang Chuan's comrades and immediately open the gate of the fortress and surrender, I will spare you from death for the sake of atonement for your crimes."

"If you are lucky and refuse to surrender, when the gate is breached, it will be the day you will be killed. Wang Chuan has already given the first method, so you should make your own decisions! ”

There was a 'bah' sound on the wall, and a broken gong roared in a hoarse voice: "Li Yi thief, you use the tricks of these three-year-old naughty boys to fool us, and there is no door." Our big brother Wang is a hero who stands up to the sky, how can he be harmed by you little people, haha! ”

"You are trying to confuse the people with false words and shake the morale of our army, how can we be easily fooled! When our big brother Wang comes over, you will not want to live one by one. ”

Li Yi smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Since Your Excellency doesn't believe it, please see if these white horses under my crotch are the mounts of your eldest brother Wang?" ”

The man looked at it carefully for a while, and couldn't help but say, "This... Isn't this Brother Wang's 'Night Lion Horse'? You... Where did you get it? ”

Later, the voice was almost inaudible, mixed with a slight trembling sound, and the arrogance just now was lost.

Li Yi struck while the iron was hot, and he was sure to completely destroy their confidence, so he continued to shout: "Come on, drag the corpse and weapons of Wang Chuan, the dog thief, and let these things that don't know whether they are dead or alive see!" ”

As soon as Li Yi's words fell, four soldiers, dragging Wang Chuan's corpse weighing more than 200 catties, came to the bottom of the wall from the back of the team, and hurriedly ran back after throwing it down.

Two other soldiers, carrying the long, sawtooth broad-backed knife, came to the front of the team and threw it next to Wang Chuan's corpse.

This trick really worked wonders, and immediately there was a scream on the wall, and after a noisy commotion, some people even burst into tears.

Although Wang Chuan's corpse has long been chopped up beyond recognition by Shui Yi, his strong and burly body is difficult for ordinary people to fake.

In addition, the serrated knife with three iron rings was really placed in front of them, and the so-called 'knife is in the person, and the knife is lost', which is not believed by Wang Chuan's comrades.

There was a burst of crying and cursing on the wall, and the ancestor cursed his grandmother.

There were even a few outlaws who were unwilling to be bound, and they didn't think about it anymore when they knew that the catastrophe was coming, and they began to shoot arrows downward in a frenzy.

More than a dozen personal soldiers around Li Yi had already erected the long shield and surrounded him tightly, allowing the arrows to rain like flying, but they couldn't help Li Yi at all.

And the crossbow soldiers on the Yunnan side were not to be outdone, and the powerful bows and crossbows shot upwards in turn, making the enemy's arrow rain suddenly weaken.

This time the enemy could not resist at all, and soon the opponent's archery action suddenly stopped, and the wall suddenly became silent.

When Li Yi was thinking about directing everyone to attack, Jian Zheng rode over and said, "Dashuai, I see that the banner on the village has died down, and there are only a dozen people left." ”

"As soon as Wang Chuan's thief died, 'the tree fell and the macaque scattered', have they already begun to think about the way back? Don't the enemy have any schemes, or have they retreated from elsewhere? We can't afford to guard against this! ”

Li Yi nodded, and suddenly had an idea: "No matter what kind of fame he makes, you immediately send an order to find a hundred and ten officers and soldiers with outstanding archery skills to launch rockets into the village." I saw that these houses were all wooden structures, and if the fire started, they would probably not be able to sit still anymore. ”

Jian Zheng nodded yes, and hurriedly waved his hand to call a leading captain of the crossbow team, and asked him to organize the archers, tie up the ignited objects, and shoot rockets into the stockade.

With the order of the leading captain, hundreds of long-pole rockets tied to grease and fire were immediately launched towards the stockade.

At first, due to the wet weather, the rocket landed in the stockade without any effect, but after two consecutive rounds of fire, the flames in the stockade had already jumped up and gradually began to ignite the surrounding buildings.

The remaining dozen or so people on the walled wall also ran under the walled wall in a hurry, and there was no longer a single guard to be seen on the entire wall. In less than a quarter of an hour, the fire was raging in the stockade, and the wolf smoke was billowing out.

At this time, several giant logs about ten meters long were also transported to the scene, and Jian Zheng immediately ordered to hit the gate of the wall.

More than a dozen strong soldiers rushed to the gate of the village with a log in their arms. Due to the lack of harassment and obstruction by the enemy, the work went smoothly, and after a while, the gate of the village was smashed open, and the follow-up men led by He Shoujie swarmed in and killed the village.

And Yin Quan took his headquarters to guard the gate behind the village to prevent the enemy from escaping.

When the team was almost inside, Li Yi and Jian Zheng immediately entered the village, and while cleaning up the fire, they searched for Zaal, Murong He, Bahu and others.

The area of Somyanei Village is not very large, there are only seven or eight scattered bamboo buildings, which have been burned almost at this time. After more than an hour of cleaning and searching, all corners of the stockade were searched, except for a dozen charred corpses, but not a single living enemy was found.

In the case of everyone's surprise, they also wondered if the enemy had escaped with the help of the secret passage.

Therefore, Li Yi immediately organized the officers and soldiers who entered the village, expanded the search area, and inspected the corners inch by inch, so as to find the secret passage where the enemy had escaped.

After careful searching, a very secret secret passage was soon discovered in an inconspicuous hut under the wall of the north wall, under a dilapidated wooden bed.

Seeing this scene, Jian Zheng immediately ordered someone to go in and search to see where this secret passage had gone.

However, the non-commissioned officers who entered the inspection soon reported that they had gone a few hundred meters to the north, and the exit had been blocked, and it seemed that the enemy was afraid that the officers and soldiers would follow the secret passage and have destroyed the secret passage.

Seeing that the entrance of the cave was less than one person high, and that it was narrow enough to allow only one person to pass through, Li Yi calculated that Zaal and Murong He's group would definitely not be able to carry horses, and even if they left the inner village of Somyan, they would definitely not go far by walking on foot.

On such a rugged mountain road, where could they flee if they lost their horses!

Wonderful!
