Chapter 446: The Fall of Baiyan Village
Accompanied by the rumbling explosions, the wails of the people, the screams of the horses, and the roars of the men, Xie Shence stepped on the almost reddish ground and came to the gate of Baiyan Village.
Zhuo Shishi, covered in wounds, knelt on the ground and presented a cloth bag dripping with blood.
Xie Shence helped him up, then took the cloth bag, threw it behind casually, and said, "Go back." Your son is waiting for you in the preparatory class of Tai College. β
Zhuo Shishi smiled, and then fainted with confidence.
The 1,000 Tiger Ben Army has occupied most of Baiyan Village, controlling most of the cottage, and nearly 1,000 people are chasing the fleeing bandit leaders.
Four hundred horsemen lined up and entered Baiyan Village with Xie Shence.
"This is Yan Jiegang's Baiyan Village, which has been operating for more than ten years, is like a city."
Walking on the dirty road, as far as the eye can see, it is a mess. Broken walls and ruins, human and animal corpses, can be seen everywhere. But excluding these, Baiyanzhai can really be regarded as a city.
Towers, bunkers, arrowheads, female walls, everything.
"Three years ago, there were more than 100,000 bandits here, and before the city was broken a few days ago, there were nearly 40,000 people, and now, according to the statistics of the Tiger Army, there are still about 10,000 people in the area under our control. The rest either fled or resisted stubbornly in the northern part of the city. β
Xie Shence waved his hand indifferently and said: "Don't kill innocents indiscriminately, it's still the old way, and offer the preferential treatment of avoiding death by throwing a name." β
Osan took the order.
At this time, a Ti rode over and said, "Lord Admiral, the people of the Tiger Ben Army are guarding the silver warehouse and will not let me enter the Ti Cavalry. β
Xie Shence raised his eyebrows and said, "Who is in the way?" β
"Deputy Lieutenant of the Left Army of the Tiger Ben Army, Hubi answers."
"Who? I haven't heard of anyone who dares to stand in the way, so I cut it directly. β
The Tiqi hesitated for a moment and said, "Hubida is the niece and son-in-law of General Mo. β
"Unless he's Mo Yichao's own son."
Tiqi was shocked when he heard this, so he clasped his hands into fists, and then galloped away.
Mao Xiaosan hesitated for a moment and said: "Lord Admiral, Hubida is quite famous among the Tiger Ben Army, he is a famous young general, and General Mo values his junior."
Xie Shence understood what Mao Xiaosan meant, and said with a smile: "Mo Yichao once whispered like me, what is his niece and son-in-law?" His own son failed to enter the martial arts hall, is his niece and son-in-law an instructor? β
Mao Xiaosan naturally understood, so he was a little embarrassed, and he said that he had drawn a snake by himself.
Although Mo Yichao is a general of Huben, but last year, because of the quota in the inner hall of the martial arts hall, he also showed favor to the Xie family, but Xie Shence refused, and instead took out a quota to the son of General Yulinwei Li, which made General Mo very dissatisfied.
However, the quota is in the hands of Xie Shence, he can give it to whoever he wants, and General Mo can't do anything about it, so he can only suffer this dumb loss. Therefore, when people talk about the anecdotes of General Mo's family, they can always talk about his rejection by the Admiral.
Therefore, in people's subconscious, General Mo lowered his head to thank Shence.
He Mo Yichao dared to be angry when he saw me, what niece and son-in-law of Mo Yichao, then who is the green onion?
If you dare to get in the way, you will cut it.
That's what Xie Shence thinks.
Mao Xiaosan touched his nose boringly, and said in his heart that he really still thought too much, so that he looked forward and backward and did not do things in a big way.
Soon after, the Tiqi came again to report that the silver warehouse had been occupied by the Tiqi, and that Hubida had been slightly injured and threatened to take revenge.
Xie Shence didn't care about these things and asked, "How much silver is left?" β
"Three-quarters off."
"Many people haven't had time to leave, and there are even fewer people who have the idea of the silver warehouse, so the silver warehouse should still be full when the city is attacked, why is there so much less for a while?"
Mao Xiaosan said: "It should be able to take some of them, our people have returns, and the team of people who escaped has not many things, but the rutted horseshoe marks are quite deep, and they are probably property." What's more, Hubida has occupied the silver warehouse for several hours, and it is impossible to take nothing. β
Xie Shence nodded and said, "Grab it and let him spit it out!" β
Mao Xiaosan was stunned, Lord Admiral, you are really tough, for the sake of silver, this is to turn your face with General Mo!
Hubida occupied the silver warehouse, not necessarily with the idea of monopoly, but probably because of General Mo's words, delaying the time to move as much silver as possible.
So this is most likely General Mo's orders. If they've moved enough, they'll go.
It's just that in this case, it is naturally impossible for Tiqi to have much left. "I still want to make money in the war, Mo Yichao is too greedy. I helped him train the children of the family, and I also gave him a lot of military merits, and he even thought about robbing me of my money."
Mao Xiaosan don't overdo it, Lord Admiral is really shameless, and he can say anything for money.
General Mo is willing to volunteer to send troops, not necessarily for the sake of meritorious service or something like that, after all, the Mo family's military merits have been enough, and in the future, Emperor Jin will make difficulties.
Training the children of the family, and making some money by the wayβthe bandits are very richβshould be the main purpose of General Mo.
After all, if the Ti Cavalry Division is ready to make a move, he must already have a complete certainty, otherwise he will not act rashly. And this time, the target of Tiqi's attack is the Taihang Mountain bandits!
Is there anything easier than fighting a bandit?
The accumulation of military merits can't let those Erzu generals really go head-to-head with the Xianbei people and the Qin people, right?
Therefore, after General Mo knew that the Tiqi Division was preparing to attack the bandits in Taihang Mountain, he immediately entered the palace to ask for an order, asking the Tiger Army to do its best.
Emperor Jin naturally understands that the disciples of Jiangmen are in Beijing again, where it is possible to go to the front line? As a result, going into the mountains to suppress bandits turned into a good opportunity to gain military merits.
As long as there are people who are willing to make progress - Emperor Jin regards this as exercise, a manifestation of progress - Emperor Jin likes it and is willing to accomplish it. After all, it's going into the mountains to suppress bandits, and it's more or less insightful.
As for money, General Mo naturally has his own plans.
So General Mo happily brought the news back on the same day
I don't know if some people don't want to go at all.
General Mo is naturally very angry, but some people would rather break their legs on the same day to resist, and General Mo can't, he can't tie up the disabled to the front line, right?
I can't help but send someone to go, I swore to Emperor Jin in the palace before, if there is really no one to go, where will Emperor Jin's face hang?
So General Mo brought out his niece and son-in-law.
Hubida is a member of the Xianbei tribe, a native of the Jin Kingdom who maintains a pure Xianbei bloodline, because his wife is from a side lineage, he is not a real core figure in the Mo family. This time he was proposed to "take on this heavy responsibility", and he was full of energy and ready to perform.
However, he forgot one question.
-- Why did his cousins rather break their legs than come over and have this "fat difference"?
Now, Ti Cai's mandarin duck suit and mandarin duck straight knife helped him recall this question when he forced him back, and also gave the answer by the way.
Of course, Hubida didn't like this question and its answer.
Although the kind of thunder of the Tim Cavalry along the way gave him an extremely shocking impression, and the loud noise made by the explosion of that kind of thing made his heart shake and everyone was shocked, but that was not the real reason that made him back down.
What really frightened him so much that he retreated was the straight knife that the Ti Knights had no scruples about swinging at him.
After all, the heavenly thunder is used on the enemy, but the straight knife is cut at his own head!
He was originally ready to resist, but the war was not over yet, and there could be no civil strife among his own people.
I'm looking out for the bigger picture.
Hubida explained it to himself in his heart.
At this time, Hubida was bandaging his wounds, gulping down wine, thinking hatefully about how to get revenge on the bastards of Tiqisi, and then he saw Tiqisi's men.
Five tall cavalrymen in black armor walked in, and without saying a word, they grabbed Hubida's arm and were about to take him away.
The Tiger Benjun naturally refused, and roared loudly and struggled, but could not break free.
More than a dozen Tiger Army soldiers surrounded the five black-armored guards.
As the pro-soldiers of Hubida, it is naturally impossible for them to let their superiors be taken away directly in front of their eyes.
The Tiger Ben Army is one of the three armies guarding the Imperial Palace, although it has been quite difficult to face the suppression of Yu Linwei, but in front of the Shenji Battalion, it is still able to hold its head high.
As the second-best treated Imperial Forest Army in the entire Great Jin Dynasty, the Tiger Ben Army naturally has no one in sight.
As the elite of Beijing, they already have proud capital,
What's more, in the previous more than ten battles, they only suffered less than a hundred casualties, so they were naturally even more proud.
So no one is logical in his eyes.
Even if it's Ti Ride on the other side.
Their superiors would back down when confronted by Ti Knight, but they wouldn't.
Because they have dignity. Even in the face of the most famous black-armored guard among the horsemen.
The five black-armored guards were surrounded by more than a dozen tiger soldiers, and there was no expression on the black armor, but the three of them put two of them in the middle, and then slowly drew out a straight knife.
"If you want to arrest someone, what is my crime?"
"Don't you just want to monopolize military exploits?"
"Engaged in murder and extermination, thinking that my Tiger Ben Army would be afraid of you?"
"Don't stop, see where they can take me! Dog fighting human power thing"
Hubi scolded happily.
"What's the noise?!"
A hoarse voice rang out, and the crowd parted, revealing a middle-aged man wearing full-body chain mail.
The Tiger Ben Army put down the weapons in their hands, but the Black Armor Guard clenched the straight knife in his hand.
"Commander Mo"
Mo Yibo walked over and said, "Why did the Tiqi Division arrest people? β
The black-armored guard in the lead tilted his head, then shook his head.
Mo Yibo's face sank.
He is Mo Yichao's younger brother, and as the commander of the Tiger Ben Army in this crackdown on bandits, his power is second only to Xie Shence.
Ti Cavalry couldn't help but say that he was going to take his niece and son-in-law, but of course he didn't agree.
Whether Tiqi had a reason or not, he wouldn't let this happen right under his nose.
So he wanted Tiqi to retreat.
However, not only did Tiqi not retreat, he didn't say anything, and he didn't even say anything.
No, Tiqi actually has a representation.
This expression is what makes Mo Yibo angry.
You? No way
How dare an ungraded rider talk to him like this?
Mo Yibo was naturally furious.
So he said, "Get out." β
More than a dozen Tiger Army soldiers were shocked in unison and shouted, "Get out!" β
"Get out of the Tiger Army's camp!"
Some of the Tiger Warriors heard the shouting, so they gathered around, looking unkind.
The three black-armored guards took a step forward, then tightened their grip on the straight knife in their hands.
Mo Yibo smiled, and then said, "This commander doesn't want to embarrass you. Let Xie Shence come over in person. β
The black-armored guard closest to Mo Yibo smiled and finally spoke.
"Lord Admiral's busy."
"Arrogance! He thought he was somebody! If he doesn't come today, you won't be able to get out! β
"Let him come!"
"Otherwise, I'll hang you up!"
Such a threat kept ringing around, and the Black Armor Guard snorted disdainfully.
A black-armored guard straightened his sword to his sheath, took out a fire fold, put it to his mouth and blew it.
The Tiger Benjun didn't know why, but Mo Yibo's face changed again.
Some people looked at Mo Yibo, and then they also reacted, their faces changed, and they retreated.
The rider reached into his coat and pulled out a black ball.
As a result, dozens of Tiger Ben soldiers who were surrounding the five people dispersed violently.
"Heavenly Thunder!"
"What are you going to do!"
"Put it down!"
ββ
Mo Yibo said grimly: "Don't go too far, lest you lose sight." β
The black-armored guard said, "Get out of the way, or we'll die together." β
Mo Yibo's face changed several times, and finally turned sideways.
Seeing this, Hubi replied and shouted, "Uncle, save me! Don't let them take me! Don't."
Mo Yibo kept a calm face and ignored Hu Bi Answer.
The voice of Hubi became more and more sharp, but at one point, it suddenly disappeared.
"It's noisy"
One of the black-armored guards rubbed his big elbow.
Dozens of Tiger Ben soldiers watched as the Black Guards took their superiors away.
They were furious, then looked at the Commander, Mo Yibo.
"Don't talk about today's things."
Mo Yibo said a simple word and left.
This sentence is a command, but also a warning.
Whoever says to go, he dies.
The Tiger Ben army was still unwilling, but at this time no one said anything about "no one is allowed to take people away".
At that moment, they felt that something hard and fragile in their hearts was broken.
It's just that some people are accustomed to understanding that the boss has an order and has to obey.
"They just said it well, as soon as they took out the heavenly thunder, they didn't dare to make a sound, Mo Yibo's face changed"
Xie Shence listened to the Black Armor Guard's narration and smiled.
These people are really stupid and cute, Tiqi's straight knife is here, will the thunder be far away? It's not that I really don't know how to write the words I'm afraid of.
The next result was very simple, Hubida confessed the hiding place of thirty boxes of treasures, and after Xie Shence found them all, he was released.
"Lord Admiral, is this really good?"
Faced with Mao Xiaosan's question, Xie Shence took a bowl of braised noodles and sucked it up, ignored it, wiped his mouth after finishing it, rinsed his mouth with a large throat cutting knife, and then said slowly: "What's good or bad, it's our thing, and we won't let others get it." β
"But that's going to be handed over to the treasury, when did it belong to our Ti Cavalry?"
Xie Shen was angry and said one word: "Get out." β
Mao Xiaosan was stunned, scratched his head, and said, "Hehe, I have been stunned by the thunder in the past two days. Hey hey"
Xie Shence ignored him no longer, and then began to process the documents left by Baiyanzhai.
At night, a guard appeared in Xie Shence's room, and handed Xie a roster to Xie Shence.
"That's all?"
"There will be a batch of more people tomorrow, and the number of people will be one-third more, but the quality will be slightly worse."
"I'd rather have a good soldier than a bad battalion. That's all, send it away overnight, don't alarm anyone. β
The iron guard said, "Yes, little marquis. There are black-armored guards guarding the south side, and no one will notice when they are sent away. β
"Be careful."
The Iron Guard took the order and left.
Xie Shence looked at the roster, then thought about it for a while, and said, "There are two thousand people, it's really an abominable nobleman, and he has equipped so many private troops."
While laughing at himself, Xie Shence burned the roster.
The matter was handled by the Tiqi Division, but these soldiers were not sent to the prisoner of war camp, but were sent out of Baiyanzhai overnight and sent to the northwest.
This kind of thing was done very early on. For example, after defeating tens of thousands of thieves in Taihang Mountain, many of them flowed into the northwest through hidden channels, and these people who disappeared inexplicably were marked dead and their household registration was canceled.
They are all in Guanwaidao and have a new identity: Xinnong.
That is, the income of the fertile land cultivated by the Kanwai Province. And in addition to owning land, they also have an identity, that is, the Iron Gang, a newly emerging mercenary army in the Kanwai Province.
Of course, this is all a cover-up.
Xie Shence burned the roster and crushed the paper ashes.
Pulling the bell in the room, a rider walked in a short time later.
"Let's write good news, the Baiyan Zhai Department of the Taihang Mountain Bandit has been exterminated, and the class will return to the dynasty on the same day."
The Tiqi was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Lord Admiral is going back?" β
Xie Shence smiled and said, "If you go back, I won't be able to." β
The rider bowed his head slightly, and then went out.
Jindu, Ti Qi Division, I'm afraid it will be a long time gone
Xie Shence returned to Yangzhou City at the end of May, and then accompanied Lao Taijun with Wang Jiehua.
The Ti Cavalry Division exterminated the bandits of the Baiyan Zhai Department, making the Jin capital rejoice. Everyone celebrated the destruction of this gang of bandits who single-handedly planned the Handan tragedy more than ten years ago.
A woman carried a jar of ashes to a bottle of graveyard outside the Jindu City, and then buried it.
After sitting stupidly for a while, the woman suddenly found that she didn't seem to have any tears, and it seemed that she didn't feel much sadness after so long, so she smiled, got up, and said to a tombstone made of stone: "Actually, there is no other meaning, it is just to read an acquaintance, so that you will not be buried in the belly of a wild dog." β
The woman shook her head, then turned to leave.
However, when she turned around, she saw a group of young couples.
Zhou Jinmian and Tian Fen.
Mi Yu was stunned and said, "Secretary-General, madam." β
Zhou Jinmian smiled and said, "I'm here to help someone talk." β
Mi Yu thought for a moment and said, "Your Excellency Secretary-General, please speak." β
He said that he couldn't let you kill Yan Jiegang with your own hands, but the conditions were difficult at that time. Fourteen tried his best, but he could only bring out a human head, and it was not easy to find the body after that, so don't be surprised. β
Miyu shook his head and said, "No, I don't blame Lord Admiral. If it weren't for this, or if he appeared in front of me, I wouldn't have been able to do anything. In this way, it is directly a human head, but it ends many things. β
Zhou Jinmian nodded and smiled: "It's good if you understand." β
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, Tian Fen stood up and said, "Sister Mi has time, it's good to come to our house and sit down and talk to me." Don't be angry. β
Miyu nodded mechanically, and then walked to the other side.
Don't want to be divided because you are finally going to be corrected and officially take over the Tiqi Division?
Oh, it's not worth it, I still poured out my heart and lungs before, and after you lost power, I immediately changed my face, and I didn't even dare to say your name.
Mi Yu said goodbye, and glanced at the direction Tian Fen left with disdain, feeling worthless for Xie Shence.
(PS: It's still a chapter where some readers say that the update is slow, explain, I've been preparing for a very important interview recently, so I can only have one update a day, and it will be fine after this time.) It's about a week or so. Thank you for your understanding! οΌ
