Chapter 8 The Beginning of the Edge Section 108 A shot wounded Li Zicheng
This Meng Hong is not tall and does not have much strength, when Chen Wenzhao was recruiting regimental training soldiers, he did not pick up the big stone that tested his arm strength, and in the end, Chen Wenzhao saw that he was stable and calm, so he was recruited into the team.
And after this Meng Hong was trained, although he was still unfamiliar with the hand-to-hand combat tactics handed down by Yu Dayou, the musket was extremely accurate, and he was one of the best sharpshooters in the team of 200 people.
Therefore, when he heard Ji Qingwen's order, he was not in a hurry to answer, and glanced at Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng on the high platform, and then said thoughtfully: "This...... It's too far away from there, and it would take more than a hundred steps to say the least, so it's not difficult to hit him, but it's not easy to hit this person's vital point......"
Ji Qingwen nodded and said, "It's best if you can kill him, if you can't kill him, then at least you have to hurt him." β
Meng Hong nodded and said, "Then the villain will try it." β
With that, Meng Hong jumped out of the saddle, took the spear on his back, calmly and skillfully loaded the gunpowder, stuffed the projectile again, raised the musket, took a deep breath and began to aim meticulously.
At this time, Li Yuanyin asked: "Lord Ji, Meng Hong's marksmanship is accurate, but I'm afraid that he won't be able to fight alone." It's better to shoot these soldiers under the adult for a while, and the success rate may be higher. β
Ji Qingwen was stunned when he heard this: Why didn't he think of such a method?
He was about to order Meng Hong to stop shooting, but when he heard a "bang", Meng Hong had already pulled the trigger, and a bullet made of lead flew straight towards Li Zicheng with the sound of the wind.
However, in an instant, Li Zicheng's tall body suddenly fell backwards, and his mouth let out an extremely painful "Ah! The shouts.
Ji Qingwen saw this situation from afar, and immediately laughed happily: "Haha! Meng Hong, you really have some ability, but I didn't expect that after my regiment was trained into the army, the first great merit was set up by you! I'm going to reward you so much! β
Meng Hong was also very happy, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "Then thank you, my lord......"
While he was talking, Li Yuanyin raised his hand and pulled Ji Qingwen's sleeve and said, "My lord...... The man, it seems...... Seem...... Didn't get killed......"
Ji Qingwen was stunned for a moment, hurriedly raised the binoculars, and looked in the direction of Li Zicheng - but saw that Li Zicheng slowly got up from the ground of the high platform with an extremely painful expression, and pressed hard between the right fingers of his left shoulder, and bright red blood flowed out......
"Bastard!" Ji Qingwen secretly cursed, and loudly ordered his soldiers, "Don't be stunned, give me a salvo at Li Zicheng, you must kill him!" β
Unexpectedly, Li Zicheng's yellow eyes and excellent eyesight were excellent, and he actually saw Ji Qingwen's face clearly from a hundred steps away, and even saw that there were more than a dozen soldiers beside him who were preparing to shoot at him again.
Li Zicheng saw the opportunity very quickly, and hurriedly pulled Gao Yingxiang beside him to jump off the high platform, and immediately mixed in with the countless victims, and could no longer be clearly identified.
When Ji Qingwen saw such a scene, he regretted and was anxious in his heart, and was about to discuss the next countermeasure with Li Yuanyin, but saw a team of more than 100 people on the opposite side walking out of the crowd of victims gathered under Yuzhong County.
I saw that everyone in this team was tall and bright, and they were obviously specially selected elite soldiers, but one of them walked staggeringly, which was particularly conspicuous - it was the injured Li Zicheng!
But he heard Li Zicheng cough twice, and shouted at Ji Qingwen: "It turned out that Young Master Ji was here, our previous grievances have been written off, and now the well water does not interfere with the river water, why does Young Master Ji have to hurt people with secret arrows?" With that, he began to gasp for air.
Ji Qingwen saw that Li Zicheng was a powerful man, and although the ten regiments under his command were elite, they were not necessarily the opponents of the hundred or so Northwest Hans, and only when Chen Wenzhao brought the team of men and horses could he have the strength to deal with Li Zicheng.
So Ji Qingwen deliberately delayed the time, and said: "Li Zicheng, you are wrong, I am not the little master of the Ji family in Xi'an City now, I am now the minister of the Qin mission in the northwest of the Qin Order, you proclaimed yourself 'Chuang Wang', and inciting the people to rebel here is a big crime of killing the head." Do you think my well water can offend your river? β
Li Zicheng had long heard that there was a minister in Xi'an, who persuaded the wealthy families in the city to sell grain at a reasonable price and set up a porridge factory outside Xi'an. Unexpectedly, the "Qingtian Lord" in the mouth of the victim was actually the gentleman Ji Qingwen who had been in close contact with him at the beginning
ββThinking of this, Li Zicheng was also a little surprised and couldn't help himself, and asked almost like this: "Young Master Ji, don't lie to me!" β
Ji Qingwen laughed "haha": "The crime of pretending to be a messenger is more serious than the crime of inciting the disaster victims to rebel, I am very cowardly, so I will not commit such a big crime in order to deceive you." β
At this time, Li Zicheng was just a peasant with empty ambitions, he didn't understand the internal rules of the imperial court, and he couldn't figure out how Ji Qingwen changed and became the minister of the imperial court.
Therefore, such news is undoubtedly a big blow to Li Zicheng, which makes him a little ignorant, and he has just suffered a gunshot wound, so he only cares about gasping for breath, but he can't even say half a word.
But he heard Gao Yingxiang, who was supporting Li Zicheng on the side, say: "Young Master Ji, since you are an official of the imperial court, you naturally have to do things for the imperial court, and it is natural for you to deal with me and Li Zicheng." But we are all men and husbands, we should fight to the death one-on-one, and hurt people with such a secret arrow, even if I succeed for a while, I will not be convinced by Gao Yingxiang, the king! β
Gao Yingxiang's words are between saying and not saying, but the last sentence is the most important, which aroused Ji Qingwen's curiosity.
I only heard Ji Qingwen ask: "I have always heard that Li Zicheng is the 'King of Chuang', when did this name become your Gao Yingxiang?" β
Gao Yingxiang looked up to the sky and laughed: "That's because you court officials are as stupid as pigs and dogs. I, Gao Yingxiang, am Li Zicheng's uncle, so naturally I am the 'king of breaking', and he is the 'general'! But these false names don't matter, we kill corrupt officials and divide the land, but we are doing the right thing for heaven, Lord Ji don't go against the sky! β
While listening to Gao Yingxiang's words, Ji Qingwen turned his head to look behind him, and saw that the army led by Chen Wenzhao was slightly closer, but it was still a few miles away, so he had to continue to talk nonsense with Gao Yingxiang, hoping to buy some time.
I only heard Ji Qingwen say: "Corrupt officials, you should be killed!" Tell me who is a corrupt official, and I will put him to death in public!" β
"It's Jiang Yao, the commander of Yuzhong County! This person openly embezzled disaster relief funds, and the people outside the city still starved to death, such a corrupt official, he could not atone for his sin by death. Li Zicheng and I are about to join the people together to kill the city and break this thief's body into pieces! Gao Yingxiang said hatefully.
Ji Qingwen replied: "It is also the duty of the imperial court to kill corrupt officials. Since you think he is guilty, why don't you tell your superiors that after finding out the truth, they will naturally give you justice! β
Gao Yingxiang said: "Officials protect each other, this has been the case since ancient times, and suing officials is just mud cattle entering the sea, what use can it be?" β
"Why didn't it work? I am an official, and I am also a minister, and I am in charge of disaster relief matters, so I have the right to cut first and then play. If you have a grievance, I can call Jiang Yao out now and immediately find out the truth, if he is really a corrupt official, I can behead him on the spot and show the public! β
As soon as Ji Qingwen said these words, he immediately turned against the guest, and said Gao Yingxiang as if he was not at all.
Li Zicheng, who was injured at this moment, finally recovered, gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about with this surnamed Ji?" He is the minister of the Qincha, and now we have a lot of men, as long as we kill or hold him, it will be a major event that will shake the world, and I don't know how many heroes and heroes will come to us at that time! β
This sentence immediately woke Gao Yingxiang up and said: "It's still self-rightening!" β
With that, he waved his hand and ordered more than a hundred and tall Northwest men around him to take out hoes, sickles, iron forks and other farm tools as weapons, and then crushed them step by step in front of Ji Qingwen and the others.
