At the last moment, victory or defeat and life and death are only a thin line. Although Shi Xiu's fearless fighting style caught Lu Zhen off guard, he could barely block it with a stick, but the injury on his left arm made his move slightly delayed. The two faced each other head-on, even if they avoided it sideways, they couldn't close the momentum.

Shi Xiu's knife left no room for anything, and when the cooked copper stick was about to smash him to the point that his skull was shattered, the narrow blade steel knife in his hand suddenly slammed upward, and he only seized the opportunity in the blink of an eye, and he had already cut off Lu Zhen's right hand holding the stick with his wrist!

With a muffled sound, the nine-section chain stick of cooked copper fell to the ground, and Lu Zhen also tightly choked his wrist and fell to the ground and howled miserably. Shi Xiu, who was almost smashed by a stick, still had an awe-inspiring killing intent on his face, and walked towards Lu Zhen step by step.

Nearly half of the minions in the Evil Tiger Village have been killed by the official army, and most of the remaining thieves have also thrown their blades, shouting for mercy. Lu Zhen, who was in severe pain, now knew that he could not escape, and he saw the ruthless man who regarded desperate fighting as a daily routine with a steel knife pacing towards him. The sharp tip of the knife slipped drop by drop, all of which were his own blood, and Lu Zhen, who had lost his fighting spirit, hurriedly howled miserably: "A good man spares his life!" I will surrender! ”

"Your thief is disabled, and there are already a few thieves who want to be questioned, so what's the use of catching you back?"

Shi Xiu smiled coldly, and then said in a dark voice: "What's more, you, a good thief, have done a lot of evil in the surrounding realm, causing the resentment of all the people, I have already found out all this, and now I still hope to save your dog's life?" ”

Shi Xiu didn't say a word, he had rushed to Lu Zhen like a gust of wind, the narrow steel knife in his hand was rolled, and the knife light was as straight as a match, and before Lu Zhen could shout, he was cut in two by Shi Xiu's knife!

After all, Shi Xiu is not an official general, and now that he is fighting murderously, he secretly said that if he sent this thief back to listen to the trial, it would be just a waste of food, and it would be cool to simply kill him here. Jun Jian, who had just restrained the thieves in the village, was stunned when he saw Shi Xiu's fierce appearance, and he did not step forward to dissuade him.

And Shi Xiu put the knife back into its sheath, picked up the Mo knife again, looked over at the commander of the Western Army Qin, and said, "The thieves in the village have all been controlled?" I also have to give my brother my life earlier, and there are still three or four strongmen in the north who obey Tian Hu's orders, and they must be eradicated as soon as possible, so as not to let the thieves get a voice and abandon the village, otherwise it will take a lot of time to encircle and suppress. ”

Commander Qin looked at Shi Xiu stunned for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand and raised his thumb, and praised: "Good skills!" What a guts! Good man! In the past, our Western Army fought bravely, and we didn't look down on the forbidden troops of other state capitals, but you, a man of luxury, if you want to have a background in the border court, you will definitely be able to be reused! ”

Shi Xiu smiled slightly, put the bloodstained Mo knife on his shoulder, and said leisurely: "Thanks to this commander, I can afford it, but I am used to being unbridled and happy, and I can't be constrained by the army." It's still in front of my brother's tent to obey orders, and I feel happy. What's more, there are many capable people under Brother Xiao Tang's command, and my little ability is nothing. ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

After the evil tiger village of Longjiao Mountain in Jinzhou was leveled in one fell swoop, Xiao Tang and Yao Pingzhong each ordered their subordinates to cooperate and act, taking advantage of the fact that the strongmen who planned to take refuge in Tianhu in the southern part of Hedong Road were not gathered in one place, but were broken by the officials and troops.

Originally, he was dedicated to helping Tian Hu to be a haunter, and in order to avoid death, he really spared no effort to confess the places where the thieves were hiding everywhere, and even personally led the officials and soldiers to pretend to be the thieves under his command to open the gate of the village, and let the officials and soldiers suddenly enter the village to capture or kill the thieves. The old technique is repeated, but it is also easy to use, so three times and twice, most of the strongmen in Jin, Gai and other military states who obeyed Tian Hu's orders were broken one by one by Xiao Tang and Yao Pingzhong.

The power of the thieves in the south of Hedong Road has been greatly reduced, and then the official army should put pressure on the bandit army in the area of Longde Mansion, Fenzhou, and even the Qinyuan area of the Weisheng Army, where Tianhu first started to rebel, and then advance north. As the boundaries of the soldiers and horses available to him and the wandering territory become narrower and narrower, how long can Tian Hu be rampant?

When Xiao Tang and Yao Pingzhong returned to Tongqi County of Weisheng Army, there were some small episodes.

As soon as Xu Guanzhong, a henchman who was currently around Xiao Tang and waiting for an opportunity to give advice, returned to the mansion, he saw a cronie sent by Yanqing from Xiao Mansion in Bianjing coming with a letter, and had been waiting in the county seat for a few days. Xiao Tang, who is still in the east of the river under his order, can only receive letters from various places through the pigeon liao in his own mansion in Bianjing, so that he can learn about some of the developments in various places in a timely manner.

In order to prevent the lieutenant generals from looking at some clues, Xu Guanzhong found a secluded place, and then opened the letters sent to Bianliang in Tokyo from three places in Baozhou, Liaodong, Erlongshan, Qingzhou, and Xiaojiaji, the Daimyo Mansion.

Among them, the news from Baozhou is: After the Jurchen Zhuzhu Alliance successively captured Penzhou and Xianzhou, Aguta was ready to establish the Kaiyuan Dynasty under the support of his brother Wu Qimai, as well as Wanyan Sagai, Ci Bu and other leaders, and planned to officially serve Aguda as the emperor in the following year, and now is calling on more Jurchen tribes and Liaodong tribes to go to serve, and the Liao court has also assembled a large army after hearing this, together with the officials and troops currently led by Yeluchun to suppress the rebellion in Liaodong has exceeded 100,000. Prepare to go and conquer the growing Jurchen Alliance.

Sure enough, as my brother expected, the Jurchens were fierce and good at fighting, and they were really worthy of being a generation of heroes, and they were able to win more with less repeatedly, and now they have completely broken with the Liao Dynasty...... However, although the Jurchens are fierce, there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses at present, can they really compete with the Liao Dynasty, which has hundreds of thousands of troops?

Xu Guanzhong thought about it in his heart, and then he thought again: However, the situation in Liaodong seems to be turbulent for a long time, and Baozhou, Phidao and other places are in a safe corner, even if they are seeking Dingzhou, Xuanzhou and other remote and important military prefectures, and then take advantage of the increasingly chaotic situation in Liaodong to contain the displaced people...... At present, the officials and troops of the Liao State only care about the Jurchen clans, and they do not have to worry about attracting the vigilance of the Liao Dynasty.

While thinking, Xu Guanzhong opened the second letter, the content of the letter not only mentioned that the internal operation of the cottage is going smoothly now, and since the last time the officials and troops of Jingdong Road were defeated, now the military divisions of all parts of Jingdong Road dare not look at the second mountain of Qingzhou, but also said that it is an innocuous matter.

Wang Lun, the former owner of Liangshan Village, went to join the village, but was bombarded down the mountain by Lu Zhishen, who was in charge of the village.

Wang Lun, who was not caught by Lin Chong's fire, had to wander around after being expelled from Liangshanbo by Chao Gai, who was occupied by the magpie's nest dove. He doesn't have the slightest ability, and his reputation for being narrow-minded and intolerant has long been stinky in Hebei and Shandong, and most of the green forest strongmen think they are bold and happy, and they are very righteous in the rivers and lakes, but Wang Lun is a sour and rotten scholar, and most of the green forest thieves are not speculative and incompatible.

Wang Lun originally thought that he had been the master of a village, if he could be thrown into the green forest forces in Shandong and even the Great Song Dynasty, whether it was the number of leaders or the strength of the soldiers and horses, he could be called one of the best Erlong Mountain, even if he was only a small leader who showed off his knife and pen, it was a good shade under the big tree, but Lu Zhishen, who was strong and fiery, looked at Wang Lun's bird-like appearance and did not look at him, and he didn't leave him any affection, and directly scolded the guy out of Erlong Mountain. And Xu Guanzhong didn't bother to use his brain to think about this matter, what kind of storm can an out-and-out clown who jumps off beams?

But when Xu Guanzhong opened the letter sent by Xiao Jiaji, the famous mansion, and only read a few lines roughly, he couldn't help frowning with a pair of eyebrows, and muttered in his mouth: "The Flying Tiger of Dulonggang in Yunzhou is completed?" Hujiazhuang? Zhujiazhuang? ”
