The three main generals led 1,500 people, and the whole melee lasted until dawn, and the soldiers in the cottage were also shocked and hidden, but they still did not see the owner of the village, Wang Ling and Wang San. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhao Tuo was a little ruthless, arrested more than 100 residents in the village, executed them all, and burned all the houses.

Lu Jing took a look at the situation in the village, and seemed to have found something wrong, all the houses obviously had no place to hide, only the possibility of escape.

Thinking in his heart, Lu Jing took many of his soldiers to the innermost part of the cottage, and sure enough, there was a shortcut, and Lu Jing immediately told Ren Huan and Zhao Tuo.

Ren Huan looked at the surrounding grass and trees trampled on, and could be sure that the person did not run far at all, and immediately led a hundred horsemen to search along the path.

In less than a moment, I saw that some residents were moving forward slowly, and after a quick inquiry, I learned that Wang Ling was in front, and Ren Huan did not dare to slack off, so as not to let Wang Ling escape to Baiyue.

After chasing for half an hour, he found Wang Ling and Wang San's two families in the jungle, as well as several villagers, adding up to only ten people, and Ren Huan immediately ordered to arrest and return to the camp.

Wang Ling was also honest, he didn't do much resistance, he just caught it quickly, Zhao Tuo's side also settled all the soldiers and horses, sorted out the team, and collected all the valuable things in the village, and there was not much use, most of them were burned out.

At this time, Lu Yan woke up from the tent, and Hu Hai didn't know when he also ran over from the county guard mansion and was sitting next to Lu Yan drinking tea.

"Childe, why are you here again?" Lu Yan said a little nervously, and immediately knelt down at the same time.

"Excuse me, what about the other three lieutenants?" Hu Hai asked with some confusion.

Lu Yan quickly sorted out his clothes, "Childe wants to know, then go out with your subordinates to have a look." Lu Yan pretended to be mysterious and walked slowly outside.

Hu Hai was also curious, and immediately followed, at this moment Zhao Tuo and others had already rushed back from the cottage with Wang Ling, and when they saw Lu Yan out of the camp, Zhao Tuo immediately dismounted and saluted.

"Meet the son, meet the general, everything is going well, the tomb of the thief leader has been caught, and the cottage at the fork has been burned down." The words were very happy.

And Wang Ling, who was tied up in the back, lowered his head a little frustratedly, and didn't know how to refute for a while, "The three captains have worked hard, go down and rest first, and I will deal with this royal tomb." Lu Yan said slowly.

Zhao Tuo immediately bowed down and retreated, Wang Ling was originally extremely guilty, but looking at a few children around him, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel pity in his heart.

"Childe, what do you think these people should do?" Lu Yan then turned around and asked Hu Hai.

Hu Hai pondered for a moment, "These people originally served the empire, but they fled, it is really an unforgivable crime, it is better to kill them on the spot." The words were very indifferent.

Lu Yan frowned slightly, "Although these people are sinners of the empire, these children are innocent, wouldn't it be very painful if they lost their parents, it seems that it is better for His Majesty to let them go, in order to show the prestige of the empire." ”

Hu Hai just waved his hand after hearing this, "Since Ziyu likes to do this, then do it." So saying, he went to the tent, and did not pay much attention to it.

Lu Yan also immediately ordered his soldiers to loosen the ties for Wang Ling and others, "Although you are sinners, these children can't be without their parents, and besides, you didn't kill exclusively, so it doesn't hurt to let you go, and reward you with some gold and silver, so that you can be exempted from your status as a servant, go back and live a good life." ”

Wang Ling originally thought that he was going to die here, but Lu Yan's words made Wang Ling have hope in his heart again, and immediately knelt down and thanked him, as did the children behind.

"I don't know who the general is from, and he is so cautious in using troops?" Wang Ling asked suspiciously.

"The gate of Xunzi, Zhang Cang of Qi State." Lu Yan hurriedly helped Wang Ling up and said, and at the same time gave the gold and silver silk taken by the soldiers to Wang Ling on the side.

"I wonder where Your Excellency is staying?" Lu Yan then asked.

"Go back to my hometown Pei County, live a peaceful life, no longer cause trouble like this, go up the mountain to make trouble, and disturb people's livelihood." Wang Ling said with a sigh.

Lu Yan was also a little surprised, he didn't expect this person's hometown to be from Pei County, since this is the case, Lu Yan is not forced to stay, "Brother Wang Ling take care all the way, Lu Yan will not be far away." ”

Hearing Lu Yan call him his brother, Wang Ling was even more flattered, and let his children bow again and again, and then he was willing to leave, "General Lu, we are leaving." ”

Watching Wang Ling leave, the southern expedition to Baiyue finally got off to a good start, but Lu Yan just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he thought that Hu Hai was still in the barracks.

Almost forgot about this person, Lu Yan also immediately walked towards the tent, at this moment Hu Hai was rummaging through Lu Yan's books, and Lu Yan was not easy to attack.

"Childe, why don't you come here instead of being in the county guard's mansion?" Lu Yan asked very respectfully, trying to show a kind look on his face.

"The county guard is too old-fashioned, last time I scattered his armory, I didn't want to go, every time we met, it was very embarrassing, so I said goodbye to the county guard and rushed over here." Hu Hai said very easily.

"We're going to leave Changsha County tomorrow, don't you want to follow the past?" Lu Yan then said, his face was quite worried, not because he was worried about Hu Hai's safety, but because he was afraid that he would be affected by Hu Hai.

Hu Hai just came to hang out in the tent, "Ziyu don't worry, I can only be in the barracks when you fight, and I will definitely not cause trouble, Ziyu, you have to believe me, when you were in Xianyang, didn't I still guarantee you to come out?" Can't you do that? Hu Hai immediately argued.

Lu Yan also waved his hand hurriedly, a little crying without tears, "Childe is following, Ziyu will definitely not dislike it." "Anyway, Lu Yan can see that Gongzi Hu Hai will not leave, so there should be no problem with following him.

Now that the camp of the royal tomb is in a mess, Lu Yan has sent someone to sort it out, which can be used as a stronghold, and Lu Yan also understands the layout of the Baiyue Lingnan land.

The middle is Guilin, the upper part is Xiang County, and the lower part is Hainan County, Guilin can be said to be the midpoint of Baiyue, and the geographical location is particularly important.

Although there are only 40,000 soldiers and horses on this march, Guilin must be occupied, and then the next step is to make plans for at least all the troops together.

On the same day, Lu Yan said goodbye to the Changsha County Guard, sorted out the supplies, and went deep into the land of Baiyue, but most of the army was still on the periphery first, and Rong Lu Yan discussed with the three captains before making a decision, so as not to make any unexpected mistakes.
