Chapter 253: Encirclement, Coercion, and Slavery
Waiting for reinforcements and defending the family, Ding Zhuang on Linjia Island has always been inspired by this belief, so he did not fall behind in the battle with the Jiang family's army, which was much more powerful than them, and even suppressed the other party to the beach by the sea for a certain period of time because of the advantage of numbers.
However, when the reinforcements raised the banner, it was actually "Jiang", and the only officers and soldiers on the ground in Shandong who could have this banner were Jiang Laohu, who attacked Jiangfeng in Shandong, suppressed Shandong, and slaughtered into the rebellion.
Jiang Feng's recruits were already on the verge of collapse at the beginning, but when they saw that they were actually their own brothers, there were always bridges such as a morale boost, and they were killed from the seaside again, and naturally Jiang Feng Zhang Liang and dozens of veterans in the center were still very brave.
The tide receded, and although the exposed sand could be walked, it was also quite troublesome, and if you put your feet a little hard, you would fall into the sand, but the soldiers of the Jiang family army on the opposite side were obviously extremely experienced, and the soldiers in front of them were holding wooden planks in their hands, and they were spread on the sand piece by piece.
After all, it was a distance of several hundred paces, and there were more than a few thousand soldiers on the opposite side, and a simple boardwalk was quickly paved.
Jiang Feng is no longer surrounded by anyone, these people cooperate well with each other, whether it is in all aspects, the Lin family soldiers who are very different from them are too far apart, maybe these people still have the courage to fight, but they may not have the consciousness of being slaughtered.
When the Jiang family's reinforcements came to the island, Jiang Feng suddenly saw that there were almost no people around him, the Lin family's soldiers were desperately retreating backwards, and the recruits who had already fallen behind were forming a formation and advancing step by step, and now the Jiang family's army on the island had more than 3,000 soldiers, even if it was much more than the Lin family, there was no suspense at all. The Lin family is on the island, if it is an ordinary official army, if it is really impossible in the end, it can also be released into the sea.
But Jiang Feng's dozen warships are cruising on the water, which is not vegetarian.
Luo Yi and Yang Shi strode over, and after seeing Jiang Feng, regardless of the heavy armor on his body, he knelt down directly, and solemnly saluted Jiang Feng, Zhang Liang smiled and joked on the side:
"Lao Luo, if you come later, it would be good, the master and I didn't kill at all!"
The worried officers on the side suddenly realized, it turned out that their own reinforcements were blocked on the shore, and there were still any worries there, and some people even thought that if a thousand old brothers from Dengzhou came to this island, even if there were four or five thousand Lin family soldiers here, they would all be flattened.
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Get up", he still likes this ancient etiquette from modern times, at least the distinction between respect and inferiority is very clear, and it is not like the time when people with different identities get along in modern times, it is obvious that all kinds of classes cannot be crossed, but there must be all kinds of subtle and subtle things, it is better to be inferior to me in this other party's identity, and it is straightforward to kowtow to me.
The Jiang family army on Lin Jia Island was not in a hurry to attack, but lined up in a formation, how big can Lin Jia Island be, now this place seems to be faintly Jedi, even if it is a few mountains, as long as these people in the Jiang family army are gradually searching, they can't run alone.
But now Jiang Feng is already troublesome, and said to a few cronies and officers around him:
"Let the little ones shout, if you don't descend, you won't stay."
The soldiers, who were desperately escaping inside the mountain, suddenly heard a huge voice shouting in unison behind them:
"Don't slaughter! Don't slaughter! ”
Ding Zhuang who heard this stayed there, and he might not care if he fought for his life outside, but inside the mountain was hiding his whole family, everyone had heard of Jiang Feng's murderous name, and he didn't know what the concept of soft-heartedness was.
Jiang Feng's soldiers were not in a hurry, they were shouting loudly there, shouting for the third time, someone began to slowly return to the beach, and the soldiers of the Jiang family army immediately ordered them to hand over their weapons, and then knelt on the open space on the side, and gradually more and more people came out, and suddenly, the private soldiers of the Lin family on the mountain turned around one after another as if they had received some orders.
The Jiang family army under the mountain looked at the Lin family above and suddenly changed direction, and they were ready to fight, but this time the worry was obviously in vain, everyone who came out of the mountain threw away the weapons in their hands, and then knelt on the ground silently.
And not only the soldiers just now, but also more women, children, old and young who came out of the mountains, all knelt there, and did not say anything, occasionally some young women wept and children cried, the scene was very quiet, and the atmosphere became quite strange.
Although Jiang Feng's soldiers were victors, they all clenched their weapons and looked at the kneeling black crowd in front of them, Jiang Feng's heart was also a little uncomfortable, after all, nearly thousands of people in front of him gave up resistance and knelt there to make an appearance of being slaughtered.
At the end of the day, an old man in his sixties, unlike the simple clothes worn by the people of the sea, wore a rather elaborate silk robe, which was worn by the famous gentry of the region, in other words, such a thing was to be honored by others.
To tell the truth, except for those dignitaries and nobles who are pampered and can maintain their health at the top of society, it is really rare to live to be in their sixties in the local area, and this old man is obviously a figure like the patriarch of the Lin family, and he walked at the front of the crowd under the escort of several middle-aged people with gloomy faces behind him.
Jiang Feng stuck the big knife in the sand, watched the old man come to him, with a tragic look on his face that was about to die of generosity, he slowly knelt down, first kowtowed respectfully, and then said:
"Master Jiang, the youngest is Lin Deyan, the patriarch of the Lin family, who knows that he has done a sin that cannot be atoned. Whether it is cut or chopped, Xiao Lao'er's whole family should bear it, but I also ask the adults to let go of the Qiqianlin family on the whole island. ”
After finishing speaking, he bowed down deeply, although the old man said this sentence was begging for mercy, but it was also full of energy, the crowd kneeling there was a little restless, Jiang Feng's soldiers looked at the old man's eyes with some admiration, but more than a dozen women and children kneeling in the front cried and shouted there, looking like this Lin Deyan's family, Jiang Feng sneered there, held a heavy big knife in one hand and picked up the chin of the old man in front of him, and said:
"Old fellow, what's the use of making this kind of heroism, if Lao Tzu's reinforcements don't come, are you still going to join our family by killing hundreds of them?"
There is no cold light flickering in the big knife, and it has long been stained with blood, but the blood stains still hanging on it slowly flow to Lin Deyan's neck along the arc of the knife body, this kind of cold and bloody makes the Lin family patriarch, who was originally quite calm, shudder in his heart, looking at Jiang Feng's rather cheerful expression, Lin Deyan said forcefully:
"The matter in Dengzhou is indeed done by Xiao Lao'er, the adults are brave and brave, and they have not suffered any harm, and the lives of the twenty-five members of the little Lao'er family are all repaid for the offense to the adults, and please let the adults go up and down the Lin Family Island."
Seeing the other party make such a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, Jiang Feng felt an inexplicable disgust in his heart, but he felt very incongruous, but the eyes of the subordinates around him and the prisoners of the Lin family behind him were full of admiration. He turned back to Zhang Liang and said:
"Take people into the mountains to search, let them lead the way, Luo Yi, you take all the unmarried women and children under the age of twelve and their mothers on the island to the land now while the tide is low, hurry up, if there is any abnormal movement, kill them immediately."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Deyan's face on the other side changed greatly, this was a sign that he was about to start a massacre, but Jiang Feng just raised the big knife in his hand under his chin, this kind of big knife, many strong young men on the island also had to pick it up with two hands.
But Jiang Feng's hand has not moved, there is no trembling, the strength of this kind of strength and the kind of inadvertent blood-devouring ferocious aura exuded from his body is really terrifying, people of this age look at the general of the army, many times not to look at his marching and training, but more to see a brave word, Jiang Feng is undoubtedly particularly in line with such standards.
Lin Deyan saw that his words did not move Jiang Feng in the slightest, coupled with the blade and the bloody shaking of his heart, he gradually became a little flustered, and the soldiers who watched Luo Yi and Yang Shishi rushed towards the Lin family who were kneeling in the field, and those young men were driven in a heap.
The scene gradually became noisy, the sound of crying and scolding sounded together, Jiang Feng turned his head at this time, and said leisurely:
"Uncle, I am the third-grade military attache of the imperial court, guarding the Shandong side, what are you a pirate leader, what is the value of your family's life, Lao Tzu slaughtered your Linjia Island, the imperial court can only say that I am a pirate, who will say anything, isn't it?"
The voice behind Lin Deyan became louder and louder, and an officer shouted there:
"If there is a reckless mover, kill him!"
Hearing this, Lin Deyan was already a little unable to maintain his composure, but he also heard from Jiang Feng's words that this matter was still negotiable, and said anxiously:
"My lord, my lord, as long as it is to protect the lives of my whole clan, our Lin family is willing to be a cow and a horse, and let the adults drive it."
"Okay, I have been a slave to my Jiang family for generations, are you willing!?"
“……”
"No, today is the Hell of the Sea of Blood!"
“…… The whole family of my Lin family is willing to be a slave for adults for generations and serve for life! ”
The broadsword finally left Lin Deyan's neck.
