Chapter 431: The Lu family surrenders
Hot recommendation:、
The people who led the troops knew that if the soldiers were hidden in an ambush in the mountains and forests, the birds would basically be scared away, and Zhu Wu used the pheasants that were released to make Lu Tianxiong think that everything was safe, and he did not suspect fraud, so he immediately ordered to rush to the gold mine. The cavalry entered the gorge. On the canyon, Chao Gai aimed the cloud-piercing moon chasing bow at Lu Tianxiong, the large wolf tooth arrow, the arrow is as long as a cement nail, the bow and arrow speed is extremely fast, poof, nailed to Lu Tianxiong's chest, Lu Tianxiong immediately fell off the horse and did not know whether he was alive or dead.
Chao Gai spread his hands and said, "My task is complete, and it's up to Zhu Junshi next." ”
Zhu Wudao: "Brother, take a break and watch me command." ”
Immediately, Zhu Wu picked up the order flag and waved it: "Let's fight." ”
Dozens of disorganized logs fell at both ends of the canyon first, just blocking the road at both ends, and the Lu family's iron guards were surrounded in the middle.
"Shoot the arrow, aim and shoot hard." Zhu Wu ordered.
Condescending feather arrows swished down, people kept falling off their horses, and the Lu family iron guard was not eating rice, picking up bows and arrows to shoot back, and new recruits were killed one after another. The recruits were also on fire, throwing stones down, and now the guards couldn't resist it, and they all made a mess, knowing that even if the stones of eggs were thrown down from the cliff of more than ten meters, they would kill people.
Zhu Wudao: "Suspend the attack." ”
The soldiers stopped attacking, and Zhu Wu asked the soldiers to shout, "Hello the iron guards below, are we?" Jeju Army, the gold mine has been completely occupied by us, there is no need to go to the rescue, there are thousands of troops on both sides of the cliff, there is no way to retreat, there is only a dead end to resist, but as long as you lay down your weapons and do not use the Lu family as cannon fodder, you will be free. ”
A small leader of the Iron Guard said, "Don't listen to their nonsense. Before the little leader finished speaking, he was shot to the ground by random arrows, and the iron guard next to him could see it clearly, and his face was pale.
On the cliff, Zhu Wu shook his head and sighed: "This iron guard is much stronger than our Great Song Dynasty official army, if it were the local Xiang army, I am afraid that it would have already knelt on the ground." ”
Chao Gai said: "The Xiang army is a soldier just to eat, there are few military salaries, and there are few pensions for those who died in battle, so the combat effectiveness is poor, and it is good to fight with the wind, and once they encounter setbacks, they surrender into pieces." The iron guards are different, the Lu family pays for them, and the salary is quite high, so the will to fight is very strong. ”
The soldier continued to shout: "See, this is an example of resistance, we are the Jeju Army, we are the official army, the attack on the Lu family is on order, the Lu family father and son have done a lot of evil, now it is time to liquidate, you don't need to follow the funeral, I count to ten, and if you don't want to sneak attack, you will release the boulder, and then you will be buried directly in this Grand Canyon." ”
Immediately, the iron guards below were divided into two factions, and the descendants of the Lu family were unwilling to surrender, and there were more than 100 people, and more than 300 people were willing to surrender.
Zhu Wu saw that there was really no way to force this matter, and if he was unwilling to surrender, he was unwilling to surrender, so he waved his banner and fired thousands of arrows, nailing more than 100 people who were unwilling to surrender to the ground.
Zhu Wu was very benevolent and righteous, and only asked the captives to hand over their weapons, and other private property and even armor were not confiscated.
Zhu Wudao: "These people who died in the war used to be your comrades-in-arms, and now that they are dead, you are responsible for burying them." ”
Immediately, the prisoners were allowed to bury the dead guards, and it was already dark after cleaning the battlefield.
Zhu Wu asked, "How are these prisoners settled?" ”
Chao Gai said: "They are all strong men, and they don't feel at ease when they take them with them, kill them and hurt Tianhe, hand them over to Luan Tingyu, let him screen them, leave those who are willing to leave, and those who are willing to stay will be temporarily established, and then they will be disrupted and dispersed to the armies after they are brought back to Yuncheng." ”
Let's talk about the Lu family in Dengzhou, the head of the Lu Tiannan family is pacing back and forth, this 50-year-old man was originally very well maintained, but now he looks very old. Next to him, Lu Dagongzi and Lu Ergongzi sat on the chair and didn't dare to make a sound, and Lu Sangongzi's body had been transported back and placed in the living room outside.
"Ah, tell me, how did it come to be defeated so quickly, all the three hundred iron guards in Yishui were destroyed, the seven or eight iron guards in the gold mine were destroyed, and the six hundred cavalry who went to reinforce were all wiped out, what is left of our family?"
The second son said softly: "There are also two iron mines, two copper mines, and thousands of skilled blacksmiths. ”
"Hundreds of iron guards in the gold mine can't hold it, there are no two hundred people in the two iron mines who can defend it, and there are almost no guards in the copper mine, as for the blacksmith, it's a craftsman, which one can come out and play with his life?" Lu Tiannan said angrily.
Grand Master Lu said: "We can report to the court, our relationship with the military department is not very hard." ”
The head of the family sighed: "It's useless, the two sides are just interests, now Chao Gai occupies the gold mine, and the gold mined for two years is enough for him to open any joint, surrender, I will personally take someone to see Chao Gai." ”
That night, Lu Tiannan held a family meeting, the eldest son Lu Lai, the second son Lu Jin, and other cousins and other direct family members, the family meeting quarreled, but in the end it was unanimously agreed that he could not afford to provoke, and took advantage of the fact that he had only lost a gold mine to sue Chao Gai for peace, so as not to destroy the whole family.
Lu Tiannan personally led five or six disciples of the clan to negotiate, and Lu Lai said: "Are there too few people, what if the surname Chao has any crooked ideas." ”
Lu Tiannan said: "More than a thousand iron guards have been lost, and now there are so many three heads and two hundred, what's the use?" ”
"Then you can't go recklessly, if they are angry and cut people directly, it will be troublesome, we must find an acquaintance to take them over." An elder of the Lu family proposed.
Lu Tiannan said: "It seems that I can only invite Sister-in-law Gu." ”
Lu Jin said: "I just had a fight with Sister-in-law Gu some time ago, I'm afraid please don't move." ”
Lu Tiannan said: "I know that I will cause trouble everywhere, so I'll let the housekeeper do it." ”
Lu Tiannan is a strong man in Dengzhou, he is more effective than the prefect, the housekeeper is also a smart person, and his head is very elf, he does not go directly to Gu's sister-in-law, but goes to Dengzhou to give jurisdiction to Sun Li, Sun Li is usually good friends with the Lu family, and the Lu family can't say it if he doesn't come forward if he has difficulties, Sun Li is cheeky to ask his brother and daughter-in-law, Gu sister-in-law and Sun Xin are busy in the store.
Xiao Er came to report: "Sun Tiha is here, in the back hall." ”
Sister-in-law Gu said: "This brother rarely sees his figure on weekdays, why did he come here today." ”
In fact, Sister-in-law Gu already knew about the Lu family's gold mine when she cleaned up, and she applauded happily.
Sun Xin said: "My brother is busy on weekdays, so don't lose your courtesy, let's go see my brother." ”
Immediately, the two came to the back hall and saw Sun Li.
After chatting a few words, Sun Li said: "My brother and sister must have heard about the Lu family." ”
Sun Xin said: "I really don't know what is going on. ”
Sun Li said: "Lu Sangongzi died in the battle in Yishui County, and the gold mine in Zhaoyuan was also lost, and the losses were heavy. ”
Sister-in-law Gu said, "Oh, this is a thing." Wasn't the Lu family still robbing the silver mines in Yishui County some time ago? How could this have lost even the gold mines. ”
Sun Li said: "Shhh, don't talk nonsense. The Lu family has lost hundreds of iron guards, and they are angry. ”
