Chapter 54: Worse than a Bandit

"Compare and compare, brothers kill me!" When Li Rumei heard this, her heart for victory suddenly rose, and she immediately rushed up with Li Dana and led her family members, leaving her fellow foot soldiers far behind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Ziren shook his head slightly when he saw it, Li Rumei's subordinates are very skilled in bows and horses, and it is naturally easy to deal with a group of thieves who were stunned. However, as the leader of a battalion, when he was about to fight, he only knew that he would rush and beat his family members violently, completely ignoring the foot soldiers behind him, which was too impatient.

And Ziren did not ensure that it was foolproof, so Lei Zhenwei commanded the Firearms Division to stay in the rear on guard. Zhou Daqi led the troops to attack in formation, with the rattan player in front to block and resist the arrows, the three-eyed gunman relied on the cover of the rattan player to release the gun to suppress, and the pikeman followed closely behind the gunner, responsible for assassinating those who dared to attack our military formation. He led Ma Shinan's cavalry and pressed the formation in the rear.

This gang of bandits is a group of stragglers, and they rely on the strength of the crowd on weekdays and have no military discipline at all, and they were bombarded by Ziren's head and face, and they saw that the accomplices around them were beaten to the ground, and they were already in chaos. Seeing the officers and soldiers rushing up, they turned around and fled to the mountains without resisting, and the leading black-hearted tiger fled the fastest.

Seeing this, Ziren asked Zhou Daqi to continue to chase and kill the fugitive thief as a team, and he led his troops straight to the enemy's head. After swinging the knife and slashing down a few bandits who were bent on fleeing for their lives, it didn't take long for him to catch up with the black-hearted tiger, and he wanted to directly stab this unknown thing.

Who knew that this black-hearted tiger saw that he couldn't escape, so he knelt directly on the ground with his cronies and shouted loudly. "The general spares his life! The small vow falls. Seeing that Ziren put down his blade, kowtowed and said: "There are still three thousand taels of silver hidden in the small cottage, I am willing to take them all out and dedicate them to the general, and I hope that the general will leave a small life." ”

"With this little ability, you dare to lead troops to block the officers and soldiers, waste!" Ziren scolded with a straight face, and then ordered someone to tie up the black-hearted tiger with a rope.

Seeing that the leader was captured, most of the remaining bandits abandoned their weapons and surrendered, although a small number of men and horses fled into the mountains and forests. Seeing that the mountain was high and dense, Ziren was unwilling to go into the mountain to chase and suppress the lives of the soldiers, so he ordered someone to clean up the battlefield for a while, so he pressed the captives to find Li Rumei.

The battle was victorious, and most of the soldiers were intact, except for a few who suffered a few skin wounds. Seeing the joy on the faces of the soldiers after their victory, Ziren became more determined to use firearms to defeat the enemy.

"Ziren, how did you win this battle?" At this time, Li Rumei also led the troops to converge, and without waiting for Ziren to reply, she said confidently: "In this battle, our department won more than 70 first-class pieces, and the total number of people captured was no less than 200. After saying that, he looked at Ziren with a smug face, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Let's talk about it first, those who were smashed by shells can't count." ”

"If Brother Mei is a young hero, he will be ashamed of himself." Ziren didn't want to compete with Li Rumei at this time, the reason why he said that he wanted to compete with him was to prevent Li Rumei from holding himself accountable for firing the cannon without authorization, seeing that Li Rumei didn't think of this stubble at all, he replied with a smile.

"The general is mighty, the general is mighty, the little one is willing to offer three thousand taels of silver, plus twenty good horses, and I hope the general will spare my life." The black-hearted tiger saw that Li Rumei's official position was higher than Ziren's, and he increased the bribe in order to survive, and said with a courteous face.

"I know you kid, it's you who took the lead and shouted at Young Master Ben on the mountain in front, see if I don't kill you." Li Rumei didn't fight when she saw the black-hearted tiger, and raised the blade in her hand as she spoke.

"Brother Mei is slow." Ziren had other plans, and after grabbing Li Rumei, he whispered: "Hao Xun is a careful person, and he hasn't allocated a penny of reward for this battle. At this time, Ziren paused, glanced at the black-hearted tiger out of the corner of his eye, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "This group of thieves has a thick family background, it is better to squeeze their oil and water dry first, reward the hard work of the soldiers, and then clean him up afterwards." ”

"Okay, just do as you say." Li Rumei thought for a moment, and for the sake of her soldiers, she agreed to Ziren's proposal.

Seeing Li Rumei agree, Ziren slowly walked in front of the black-hearted tiger, "Smack!" After slapping the other party with a big face, he scolded: "Grandson, you only promised three thousand taels of silver in front of you, where did this horse come from?" Dare to look down on this general, I think you are impatient. ”

The black-hearted tiger was beaten by Ziren, and after shaking his head a few times, he begged for mercy: "The general spares his life, the small one has blinded the lard, and there are still five hundred taels of silver in my village dedicated to the general, and I hope the general will disturb my life." ”

Ziren didn't say anything, and asked Ma Shi Nan beside him: "Shi Nan, how many people are there this time?" "General Qiyu, there are 3,000 soldiers, plus 500 people." Ma Shinan heard the meaning of Ziren's words and replied respectfully. "With such a small amount of money, each person can only get one tael, which is not enough for the hard-earned money of my brothers. Now there are two paths before you, see how you go. First, we will bring you back to Liaoyang, and wait for Shangguan to fall, and Lord Hao's temper will be cut in half. ”

At this time, Ziren deliberately stopped, looked at the black-hearted tiger and sneered a few times, and continued: "Second, if you take another three or five thousand taels out, the official will let you live." ”

Seeing that Ziren was relieved, the black-hearted tiger was eager to survive, but he really didn't have any money in his hands. I was sweating in a hurry, and after thinking hard for a long time, I gritted my teeth and said: "I really can't get the silver taels, there are still 500 stones of grain and grass in the village, 100 horses of silk cloth, and some cattle and sheep." plus my three-room wife and concubine, if the general doesn't dislike it, he will take it together. The last few words, the black-hearted tiger almost cried. I thought to myself, 'How can there be anyone more ruthless than myself as a thief in this world!' ’

"You keep your wife and concubine for yourself, I will add one more, take me to your village to search, and if you can't keep it, you can find something more." Ziren said with a smile.

Seeing that the black-hearted tiger's head was like a rattle, Ziren and Li Rumei discussed and decided to divide the troops into two ways. Li Rumei took half of the men and horses to protect the artillery and baggage, and went to Anshan Post first. Li Dana and Ziren led the people, pressed the captives to go to the cottage with the Black Mountain Tiger to carry money and grain, and after returning, the two sides divided it equally.

"General, the villain's family background is all for you, can the rope on my body help loosen it." Halfway through, the black-hearted tiger saw that Ziren was in a good mood and said with a smile.

After Ziren's eyes rolled a few times, he said with a serious face: "You can be wronged for a while longer, don't worry, I Ding Shouming is true to his word." I swear to my lady who has not passed through the door, and if she doesn't let go of her after taking the money and food, she will not be able to marry in her life. Dana, don't go, am I right? ”
