Chapter 149: Catch them all
Qin Ze tried his best to pretend to be frightened, for fear that he would accidentally scare these guys away.
was robbed to the point that he still had to think about robbers, and Qin Ze was no one else.
When the second master heard Qin Ze's words, he laughed and said arrogantly: "It's okay if we let you go, but you have to leave something." ”
As he said this, his eyes were fixed straight on the carts of grain. And the bandits behind him also shouted with their weapons in their hands.
Several veterans lowered their heads and forcibly held back the smile in their hearts, for fear that they would accidentally sabotage Qin Ze's plan. It's okay for them to do this, but it makes Zhou Cheng and them a lot more confident.
Qin Ze scratched his head and pretended to be distressed, asking how much he had to pay.
Then he kept telling the robbers that he was old and young, and he was just transporting goods for others.
In short, it is necessary to do everything possible to delay the other party and attract their attention completely.
On the other side, five miles away from here, Cheng Huailiang was rushing here with two teams of people. When he walked here, he stopped with a wave of his hand, and said to Zhang Bao and the others behind him: "Wait a minute, Brigade Marshal Zhang will lead fifty people to approach from the left side, the terrain on the right side is wide, as long as they are driven there, once we dispatch cavalry, they will definitely not be able to escape." The rest of the people and I bypassed here and marched from behind them, and the other side would surely scatter and flee under the suspicion of the other side. When the time comes, I will obey my orders, and we will not allow the slightest mistake. ”
After Cheng Huailiang finished instructing, he also saw that the scout he had released had returned, so he asked him about the situation ahead.
"Deputy Lieutenant Qin has already led the other party to the official road and is negotiating. On the other side of the Jade Mountain, Lvshuai Chen had also led people to approach the Nine Dragon Caves, and everything was fully prepared, just waiting for the order of the captain. The scout hunched over and reported the latest information.
Cheng Huai nodded brightly, ordered a few words at the scout, asked him to continue to go out to investigate, and then began to rush with the team at full strength.
At this time, Zhang Bao in the team was disapproving, obviously not taking the other party in his eyes, and now seeing Cheng Huailiang rushing out, he also rode a horse to follow, so he asked: "Lord Captain, the other party is just a robber of thirty-two people, and there is no need for us to dispatch so many people." This is obviously a bit ......."
His words didn't continue here, but Cheng Huailiang also knew what he meant, and said while urging everyone: "I know that you all think that coming out this time is just a formality, and no one pays attention to it." But what I want to tell you is that we are going to fight on this battlefield no matter what. You have stayed in Chang'an for too long, and many things are about to disappear, and if you don't start training from now, you will be vulnerable to the battlefield when the time comes. ”
"Can you go to war?" Zhang Bao was also stunned, and then asked with a bright light in his eyes.
Cheng Huailiang glanced at him, but did not answer, but pulled the reins and said, "Then it depends on your ability." ”
are all veterans, Zhang Bao heard Cheng Huailiang's words, and he was also a little unhappy. But after thinking about it for a while, I felt that what the other party said made sense, and I stopped saying anything at the moment.
The team arrived three miles away from Qin Ze and they split into two. Zhang Bao led a team of men and horses to outflank the mountain on the left, while Cheng Huailiang led the men and horses to go around the back from the right side.
And on the official road of this meeting, the patience of the robbers is basically exhausted. One by one, they are constantly approaching, and they have to be strong to see the posture.
Zhou Cheng, the big boss on the side, frowned and scolded everyone, telling them not to forget their rules. But in the face of so much food, where did those people listen to him? So in an instant, he became a bare-knuckle commander, and was squeezed to the end by the crowd.
And this second leader obviously became the leader, and he pushed Qin Ze away, grabbed a sack, and was about to touch it.
Those veterans were also tight-faced, and they all wanted to do it. And at this time, Qin Ze saw Cheng Huailiang's message coming from a distance, and he also knew that the other party had outflanked him.
At the moment, he also smiled coldly, and said to the second master: "There are more valuable things than these grains, and the second master is not interested?" ”
As soon as he said this, although he was a little puzzled by Qin Ze's sudden change of attitude, when he heard that there was something more valuable, he also pulled Qin Ze at the moment, and asked in a hiss where the thing was.
Qin Ze smiled again, and was about to give an order to Su Dingfang and them, but he didn't want to At this time, Zhou Cheng, who was squeezed out of the crowd, had his eyes lit up. Then he shouted, "It's not good to have an ambush." ”
Not only were the robbers stunned, but even Qin Ze was shocked. However, seeing that the other party had the intention of escaping, he hurriedly waved his hand at Su Dingfang and ordered, "Do it." ”
As soon as the words fell, the ten veterans with their heads bowed reached out and pulled their weapons from the cart. They were all Mo knives, and they instantly suppressed everyone.
These robbers are also desperate Yushan, and they are all peasants, where have they seen such a big formation. I was a little panicked at the moment.
But Qin Ze didn't wait for them to react, and a knife that grabbed the second master first was on his neck.
"Doesn't the second boss want to see it? Won't I just take it out now? Second, do you want to touch it? Qin Ze said and lightly slashed his neck, and suddenly saw a blood line appear.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives." Although the second master forgets his righteousness, his eyesight is still good, and he also knows that this Mo knife is only available to people from the official family, so he will directly beg for mercy.
And taking advantage of this time, those veterans also controlled some people, but the number of the other party was too large, and they really couldn't control all of them. Qin Ze held the second master hostage, wanting to keep others from escaping.
But I didn't want to shout this before, the other party had already run away without a trace, and there was no sense of righteousness.
On the other side, Zhou Cheng still did not run, but fought with Su Dingfang. Looking at Zhou Cheng's appearance, he also has some skills, although he is holding a mussel sickle (a kind of sickle in ancient times) in his hand. But he was also able to make a few moves with Su Dingfang.
It's just that the mussel sickle is comparable to the Mo knife, and it was cut off by Su Dingfang with a knife in a few clicks. This guy is also smart, as soon as he saw that the weapon was gone, he immediately took a step back, pointed at Su Dingfang and said that he was not victorious, and asked him to give up the Mo knife, and the two of them fought with their bare hands.
Su Dingfang was an upright person, Qin Ze really thought that he would throw away the Mo knife and fight Zhou Cheng, but he didn't want him to just smile contemptuously, and then directly bullied him. This time there was no weapon, Zhou Cheng was not his opponent at all, and he was caught by him in two moves and dragged back to Qin Ze's side.
On the other side, Zhang and Bao's team of people on the jade mountain also suddenly appeared. In a fan, it surrounded the fleeing bandits.
His formation is the least in the middle, but he is at the front. Although the sides are far behind, there are more people. It can be said that all the troops were deployed on both sides and these people were surrounded to the death.
In this way, the robbers who fled were confronted by a group of men and horses. Immediately began to flee to both sides, but they didn't know that this happened to fall into a trap.
As Zhang Bao's team shrank, these robbers found that if they continued like this, they would definitely be caught. So they began to turn around and run down the hill again.
The next road in Yushan leads to Yushan City to the east, and the road to Chang'an to the west. Directly south is a clearing, and the terrain is very flat.
As soon as these robbers rushed down the mountain, they thought about running in the direction of Yushan City, after all, there were still several roads there, which could also lead to the mountain. This is also the escape route they find on weekdays.
It's just that at this time, Cheng Huailiang also rushed up with a team of people, and the timing of his cooperation with Zhang Bao was very clever, just when these robbers had just come down the mountain.
Leng Buding saw another team of men and horses appear in front of him, and the team on the mountain was about to rush down. At the moment, there is only one way left, and that is to go south. And this trip happened to fulfill Cheng Huailiang's plan.
Just when Qin Ze was looking at it, Zhou Cheng on the side immediately shouted as soon as he saw his brothers running south: "To the west, to the west." Don't go south! ”
But at this time, who will listen to him, it is all the monkeys who fall from the tree, and they will run away with people.
The terrain in the south is open, and as soon as these people run here, they completely lose their advantage. Cheng Huailiang led the cavalry to catch all these people in a few clicks, and then gathered them at the bottom of the Jade Mountain.
Qin Ze shook his head and let go of the second master in his hand, but looked at Zhou Cheng on the side. This guy really surprised him a little, he was the first to discover Cheng Huailiang and their people, and in the end, he was able to judge that the safest was the west, so it can be said that he really has some skills.
It's just that Zhou Cheng tilted his head and didn't look at Qin Ze at all, which made him a little bored.
A total of twenty-six people were captured, and one by one they crouched on the ground and began to beg for mercy. Only that Zhou Cheng looked as usual, turned his head to Qin Ze with a cold face and said, "Let them go, I can take you up the mountain." The Nine Dragons Cave has all our stuff, and everything is yours for as long as you want. ”
Qin Ze also wanted to laugh a little when he heard this, but he still admired this person a little, so he walked up to him and said, "You take us into the cave first?" ”
"You release people first, I won't escape, I'll take you there." Zhou Cheng gritted his teeth with a resolute face.
His appearance really made everyone look at each other, Cheng Huailiang walked out in one step, pulled him up, looked at him and said, "Yes, he is indeed a man." ”
"It's a pity, what kind of righteousness do you want to be a robber?" Qin Ze said with cold water on the side, and glanced at the second master and his party as he spoke.
Previously, when they were faced with food, they immediately rejected Zhou Cheng's order. When they fled, they were faster than the other, and the rabble looked up to them a little.
Zhou Cheng listened to Qin Ze's words, and his eyes were also gloomy. However, he still said: "They are all people who have followed Zhou to live and die, and Zhou promised them to let them live a good life, and he will not let them go." ”
"Tsk." Qin Ze smacked his lips regretfully, looked at Zhou Cheng and said lightly: "It's a pity that your Nine Dragon Cave no longer exists now." ”
