Chapter 276: Round-up

When Li Su's whip and Li Yun's scream sounded, Gao Ming suddenly remembered that the paragraph Li Su said just now was not what he said when he was beating Li Tai?

Gao Ming has always regarded Li Su as a second goods, but he didn't expect this kid to really have a good memory, and it was not until this time that Gao Ming figured out why Kong Yingda would praise Li Su in front of Li Shimin.

"Li Su, this kid is not simple!"

Li Su used to belong to the kind of guy who didn't learn and didn't have skills, once he learned seriously, then it would naturally become "learning and skill", just because he could remember what he said a few months ago, Gao Ming felt that Li Su was a good material.

"Maybe this kid can surprise me!"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming looked at Li Su with a little more expectation.

And Li Su didn't know what Gao Ming thought, now all his energy and enthusiasm were focused on the horsewhip in his hand, and Li Yun who was screaming miserably.

“…… Twenty-five lashes...... Twenty-six lashes...... Twenty-Seven Lashes...... Eighteen Whips...... Nineteen Lashes ......"

"Ah...... Yes...... Sixth brother, you counted wrong......"

"If you dare to talk back, I'll fight!"

"Ah......h

In the end, Li Yun fainted again due to unbearable pain, and when he saw that Li Yun was about to fetch water again, Gao Ming hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Sixth, it's almost, you don't really want to kill him, do you?"

"But ......"

Seeing what Li Su wanted to say, Gao Ming shook his head at him again.

"There's nothing, even if you feel that the anger hasn't come out yet, then you have to wait for him to heal from his injuries, don't worry, the old man has already stripped him of his position as the governor of Anzhou, so he can't run."

"Really?"

Hearing Gao Ming say this, Li Su suddenly became happy again.

"Then I'll rest assured, okay, just listen to your eldest brother, let him recuperate from his injuries, by the way, eldest brother, Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang's legs have been raised, I saw them on Chang'an Street a few days ago, do you want to ......?"

Looking at Li Su's eager face, Gao Ming suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.

"Forget it, now that Wu Yuanqing has even lost the position of the Duke of Guo, Wu Yuanshuang has been even more demoted to a commoner, and it is too cheap to deal with them, so forget it!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming nodded at Li Yun who was hanging from the tree.

"Old Seven, you are responsible for sending him to Shang Pharmacy, I'm leaving."

"Hey, good!"

Hearing that Li Yun agreed, Gao Ming nodded again, then turned around and left the Forbidden Garden, and Li Su also carried the scarred Li Yun to the Shang Pharmacy.

After the two of them left, Li Shimin outside the courtyard wall sighed, and then waved his hand towards the surrounding Qianniuwei.

"Let's all go down!"

"Yes!"

It turned out that Li Shimin, who received the news, had already come, but when he knew that it was Gao Ming and Li Su who were teaching Li Yun a lesson, he deliberately did not come forward, because he also wanted to use Gao Ming and Li Su's hands to teach Li Yun a lesson, so that he could have a long memory.

More importantly, he wanted Gao Ming to establish enough prestige among these brothers!

"In this way, something like Xuanwumen will never happen again, right?"

Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly showed a smile on his face.

And Gao Ming was not idle after returning to the East Palace, and immediately sent someone to call Su Gan Chengji to the front, and then commanded him.

"Aki, you take someone to Anzhou, bring me Meng Chao, the former lieutenant of Anzhou, and let out the news all the way, just say that he instructed his daughter to assassinate the vassal king, and after escorting him into Chang'an, he will be beheaded."

Speaking of this, Gao Ming suddenly laughed again.

"This time, you bring more people over, it's enough to escort Meng Chao's ten people, and the rest of the people are all dressed up and quietly follow, once someone comes to rob the prisoners, take them all down and try to capture them alive, you know?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Gan Chengji immediately nodded.

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

"Go ahead!"

"Yes!"

After leaving the East Palace, Su Gan Chengji's brows suddenly furrowed.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to escort that Meng Chao back, in fact, the main purpose should be to use him as bait to lure out those who want to rob the prisoner, huh...... It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attaches great importance to this matter, and this matter must not be messed up! ”

returned to the barracks, and then directly ordered 5,000 people to come out, and asked them to disguise themselves and ambush them on the road from Anzhou to Chang'an, and released the news all the way that they wanted to escort Meng Chao back to Chang'an to be beheaded, and Su Gan Chengji himself took more than a dozen people from the official road to Anzhou to raise people.

Now everyone knows that the Hundred Cavalry Guards are the prince's guards, so after Su Gan Chengji went to Anzhou, he smoothly lifted Meng Chao out, and then escorted him to Chang'an.

Anzhou is not far from Chang'an, and if you hurry up, you will arrive in two days at most, but in order to lure out the people who are preparing to rob the prisoners, Sugan Chengji deliberately slowed down, and it took three days to walk less than half of the distance.

Moreover, for the convenience of the other party's prisoner robbery, Su Gan Chengji also deliberately abandoned the official road and chose to take a relatively remote and desolate path.

His hard work was not in vain, and on the evening of the third day, as they passed through a small ravine, they suddenly saw several large rocks tumbling down in front of them, blocking the way.

"Enemy attack."

When Su Gan Chengji shouted these words loudly, instead of panicking, his face showed a hint of joy.

"Someone is robbing a prisoner, everyone is on guard!"

"Yes!"

As soon as Su Gan Chengji's words fell, he suddenly found that more than a dozen masked people surrounded him.

Seeing this scene, a sneer suddenly appeared on Su Gan Chengji's face.

"Hmph, sure enough, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really right, let go of wolf smoke."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order from Su Gan Chengji, one of the hundred cavalry guards beside him immediately took down the small basin he was carrying, and then used a fire breaker to ignite the materials that had been prepared inside.

Soon, billowing black smoke rose into the sky.

Seeing this scene, more than a dozen masked people gathered around immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, it's fifty miles away from Shangzhou, and it's useless to release wolf smoke."

"That's it, and now that the wind is so strong, I'm afraid the smoke will disperse as soon as it floats out of the canyon!"

"Let us go, Lord Lieutenant, or don't blame us for being rude!"

Hearing their words, Su Gan Chengji also laughed.

"Hehe, it's enough to float out of the canyon, and even if there are no reinforcements, just rely on a dozen of you hairy boys, if you want to rob the prisoners from the hands of my Su Gan Chengji, I'm afraid it's not enough qualifications, come here, catch them, you want to live!"

When Sugan Chengji said "I want to live", the dozen or so masked people on the opposite side immediately became angry.

"Bold!"

"Arrogance!"

"Let's go together!"

As he spoke, more than a dozen people rushed up together.

But before they could rush up, there was a shout from behind.

"There is fraud, everyone retreat!"

Hearing this shout, the dozen or so masked people who were about to rush forward suddenly stopped, then turned around and ran.

Su Gan Chengji waited for them for three days, how could they let them run away so easily, so he immediately ordered someone to chase after them, and the two sides immediately met each other.

This time, the people who took Chengji with him were all the old subordinates he had brought with him in the Dead Soldier Camp at the beginning, and all of them were extraordinary.

And these masked people who came to rob the prisoners are just Meng Chao's generals, and the disparity in force between the two sides is very large, if it weren't for the fact that Su Gan Chengji was ordered to arrest him alive, I'm afraid that a single light can kill these dozen people.

One side tried everything possible to catch him alive, but the other side tried his best to escape, and the people on both sides fought all the way out of the canyon.

As soon as he walked out of the canyon, he saw a red-clothed masked woman riding on a horse, and when he saw this woman, a kind of realization suddenly rose in his heart.

"Perhaps, the person His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to capture alive is her, right?"

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves had already sounded around, and Su Gan Chengji looked up and found that it was the reinforcements he had arranged.

Seeing this scene, Su Gan Chengji immediately stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman in red.

"Capture them alive, especially the woman in red, and you must not let her go."

"Yes!"

There were about five or six hundred reinforcements this time, and they easily surrounded the dozen or so masked men who had come to rob the prisoners.

Looking at the dozen masked people holding weapons in their hands and protecting the woman in red in the middle of the circle back to back, Su Gan Chengji suddenly laughed.

"Haha, you have no way out, just tie your hands!"

Hearing Su Gan Chengji's words, the woman in red who was surrounded by the circle suddenly sneered.

"Hmph, Li Yun, that pig and dog are not as good as a thing, actually sent so many people to arrest us, he really looks up to us, he wants me Meng Xin to be arrested, dreaming! Kill me if you have the ability! ”

It turned out that this woman in red was actually Meng Chao's daughter - Meng Xin!

As soon as Meng Xin's words fell, Meng Chao, who was wearing shackles, couldn't help but shout.

"Xin'er, why are you so stupid? Why are you so stupid? Yes? ”

Hearing Meng Chao's voice, Meng Xin and the others' eyes also turned red.

"Daddy!"

"Lord Captain!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Gan Chengji laughed again.

"Okay, after I take you down, let you slowly catch up and take them down!"

"Yes!"

More than a dozen people against hundreds of people, and there was still a big difference in force value between the two, and after a while, Meng Xin and the others were captured, and then they were tied up and thrown in front of Su Gan Chengji.

Looking at the confident smile on Su Gan Chengji's face, Meng Xin spat on him again.

"Bully less with more, I'm sorry!"

Hearing Meng Xin's words, Su Gan Chengji suddenly smiled even more happily.

"You're right, but I've brought more people than that, and I've arranged five thousand people along the way to catch you, and I've arranged people for all possible ambushes, how about it? Do you feel lucky? ”

When Meng Xin heard that Su Gan Chengji said that five thousand people had been arranged to arrest her, she was indeed a little surprised, but she finally snorted coldly.

"Humph!"

Looking at Meng Xin, who looked disdainful, Su Gan Chengji didn't care, but raised his chin towards her.

"By the way, by the way, King Jiang can't order us, and our hundred cavalry guards only obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

At this moment, Meng Xin's face finally changed.

"You are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
