Lu Fang was dumbfounded, he found that the speed at which the mountain attack team disappeared was much faster than the speed at which he gathered, as long as the soldiers fell, even if they were only slightly injured, they would not want to let them contribute again tonight, although these mountain bandits were outlaws who killed people without blinking, but they also attached equal importance to their own lives.

At this time, an angry general rushed towards Lu Fang, and shouted irrationally: "Look at the good deeds you have done, most of my men have died, but you yourself dare not take a step closer to the side of the mountain!" ”

Lu Fang was furious, Fang Tian's halberd in his hand shook, and a halberd stabbed the general to death, and he said angrily to the bandits: "If anyone else has an opinion, I will send him on the road together!" ”

The five or six bandits around lowered their heads, it had been less than two months since they were annexed by Lu Fang, it was not so much that they were deterred by Lu Fang, but that they were afraid of the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand, and all those who opposed him died under this Fang Tian Painting Halberd.

"Luo Jin, go and straighten out the soldiers and see how many people are still available?"

Luo Jin rushed away, and after a while, he rushed back and reported: "There are five hundred and twenty brothers including the archers, and there are more than one hundred and eighty wounded soldiers, most of whom are fractured. ”

How could it be diagnosed so quickly that it was a fracture, and it was clearly made up by the injured soldiers themselves, and they refused to go up the mountain again.

Lu Fang also knew in his heart that the other party had taken advantage of the territory, they had no protective shield, it was difficult for them to attack this hill again, and the other party had come out of nowhere to get so many rolling logs, it was simply their nightmare.

"Big brother, what should we do?" Luo Jin asked in a low voice.

Lu Fang looked at the swarthy mountain, sighed, and said, "Let the brothers rest!" Wait until dawn to figure it out. ”

"What if reinforcements come?"

"Don't think about reinforcements, these officials are fighting openly and secretly, the Xiangzhou army didn't help Cizhou last time, and Zhang Jian won't care about them this time, besides, the Cizhou army is a defeated general under us, why be afraid!"

I have to say that Lu Fang is indeed a political idiot, once the Imperial History Supervision Group is killed in Cizhou, Zhang Jian is not as simple as losing his office, how can he not care?

Of course, Liang Fangping didn't tell him who they wanted to kill? If he knew that it was the imperial court's supervising imperial history, I am afraid that Lu Fang would not have agreed to Liang Fangping's conditions so happily.

Hearing that there was no need to attack the mountain for the time being, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked for a place to rest two hundred steps away from the foot of the mountain.

The bandit army temporarily retreated, and the township soldiers also returned to the compound to rest, Li Yanqing only left dozens of people to guard the mountain road, as for someone who proposed to go down the mountain to recover the rolling wood, Li Yanqing did not accept it, they still have nearly a hundred wooden piers, and there is no need to recycle the rolling wood.

Not only that, Li Yanqing also ordered the last dozen or so rolling logs to be chopped up, lit a bonfire with the roots and branches, and had six oxen pulling carts slaughtered to give the soldiers a full meal.

Although slaughtering cattle is also a taboo in the Song Dynasty, it is not so absolute, there are many situations where cattle can be killed, such as cattle or dead cattle that have lost their labor, but ordinary people are not allowed to slaughter at will, and generally have to get the approval of the government.

The soldiers chatted with great interest while eating hot soup and beef, and then they fought the defensive battle with great pleasure, slightly wounding a dozen people, only two of them died from arrow wounds, while the other side died hundreds, this brilliant result made everyone raise their eyebrows.

At this time, Wang Gui sat next to Li Yanqing with a piece of roasted beef, handed him the beef and said with a smile: "Killing a bandit is rewarded with thirty yuan, does Lao Li really want to cash it?" ”

"Of course you cash!"

Li Yanqing took a bite of barbecue, chewed and said with a smile: "I will apply to the imperial court for this reward, if the imperial court refuses to give it, then I will pay out of my own pocket, but more than 10,000 yuan, Baoyanzhai can still afford it!" ”

"Look who's coming!"

Li Yanqing happened to see Yue Fei, and hurriedly smiled and gave way to the left, "Our little Yue Yun is here!" ”

Yue Fei sat down beside Li Yanqing with the little boy in his arms, and said with a smile on his face: "I cried for a while just now, clamoring for my mother, now it's okay!" ”

Li Yanqing tore off a piece of beef and handed it to the little boy with a smile, and Wang Gui next to him frowned and said, "Fifth brother, you don't really want to adopt him, do you?" ”

Yue Fei was a little unhappy, "Why not?" To anyone is adoption, can't I adopt him? ”

"I don't mean that, I mean, in case..... What grandfather, uncle, etc., people want to get their children back, what do you do? ”

"Then tell me, where are his grandfather and uncle? I'll give them back right away! ”

"This ......" Wang Gui was a little speechless, and there was really no way to find it.

"Alright! You don't have an opinion if you want to adopt me, but how do you take him to Zhending Mansion? ”

Li Yanqing smiled slightly, "I have already solved this for the fifth brother, I will find someone to foster in Handan County for a few days, and then take him away when the fifth brother comes back, Agui, the fifth brother really wants this child, don't persuade him." ”

Wang Gui had to laugh dryly, "Then I won't have much to do, I'll prepare a meeting gift when I go back, what's his name, by the way, it's called Yue Yun, this kid is the material for martial arts, you see how strong his arms and legs are." ”

Li Yanqing nodded and smiled at Yue Fei: "If you really plan to let him practice martial arts, I suggest that you let him practice hammering, and the master also left me a hammer method, I can give it to him." ”

"I haven't thought that far now, to be honest, I hope that my child can learn literature, enter Lushan Academy to study, and finally be admitted to Jinshi, this is my grandfather's regret to me, I can't make up for it, I can only pin it on future generations."

Li Yanqing smiled and said nothing, if this Yue Yun is really the Yue Yun in history, I'm afraid that Yue Fei's expectations will be disappointed again.

At this moment, a low antler horn was faintly heard in the distance, and Li Yanqing stood up suddenly, "What did you hear?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and in a moment, another horn horn sounded, which was clearer than last time, and many people heard it, and Wang Gui also stood up, "It's the sound of horns!" ”

Li Yanqing turned around and walked briskly outside, Wang Gui hurriedly followed, Yue Fei entrusted the child to Mo Jun, and he also rushed out with a gun.

．．．．．．

Li Yanqing walked out of the door and met Zhang Ying, who was in charge of the inspection, and he seemed to have rushed back to report.

"Where's the trumpet?"

"Report the imperial history, it is coming from the direction of the official road in the south, and the sound is about ten miles away, but you can't see it that far at night?"

"Is there any movement from the bandits under the mountain?"

Without waiting for Zhang Ying to answer, Wang Gui shouted in the distance: "The bandits under the mountain have begun to assemble!" ”

Li Yanqing strode up, and Zhang Ying followed behind and said: "I am sure that this is not a trick of the bandits, they have never left, it must be that reinforcements are coming!" ”

"Whether it's their trick or not, we'll find out later." Li Yanqing was extremely calm, and his mind was quickly thinking about which decision he should make.

The more than 500 bandits did not flee north in embarrassment, but on the contrary, they bypassed the low hill and came to the official road to the south.

At this time, all the soldiers rushed out, and Li Yanqing ordered Wang Gui and Yue Fei: "Assemble the soldiers and listen to my orders at any time!" ”

He also turned to the south, when a soldier pointed to the south and shouted, "Look, an army is coming!" ”

Li Yanqing also saw it, a black line appeared on the official road in the distance, like a small black water snake, which was quickly swimming in their direction, Li Yanqing immediately judged the basic situation of this army, about two thousand people, about ten miles away from them, not more than fifteen miles.

"It must be the Xiang army of Cizhou!" Wang Gui said categorically.

"Why?"

"The township soldiers have all gone home for the New Year, and they didn't organize so quickly, only the Xiang army would come so quickly."

"Yanqing, should we go to war?" Yue Fei asked in a low voice.

Li Yanqing nodded, they have been defending for so long, it is time to attack.

He immediately ordered the two team leaders: "Each of you will lead fifty crossbowmen to guard the north and south mountain roads, and you are not allowed to move rashly, and the spearmen will follow me down the mountain!" ”

Wang Gui and Yue Fei rushed back, and in a moment, they rode out on horseback, and Wang Gui shouted: "Brothers, prepare for a decisive battle with the enemy!" ”

Li Yanqing also turned over and got on his horse, and immediately ordered: "Go down the mountain and intercept the enemy's retreat!" ”

The three of them led two hundred pikemen down the mountain......
