Li Mu had actually expected that Li Yan would be more and less lucky, but Li Yan was still startled when he was arrested.

Li Mu hurriedly rushed back to see his sister-in-law Tang, who was Li Yan's wife.

Tang immediately panicked, "Li Mu, what can I do!" ”

Tang has a gentle temperament, guards women's ways, and is a virtuous person. Because of this, Tang has no opinion at all.

Li Mu actually didn't know what to do, "Sister-in-law, let's inquire about my brother's news first and see the situation." ”

The news was easily inquired about, and Song Cheng, the county commander of Qixian County, convicted Li Yan of colluding with bandits and intending to rebel.

This crime is not small, it is a capital crime!

Song Cheng, the county commander of Qixian County, regarded Li Yan as a thorn in the flesh and made up his mind to put Li Yan to death.

Tang and Li Mu wanted to spend some money to settle the matter, but a bookstore who had a good relationship with Li Mu learned the details, and he secretly said to Li Mou, "Second son, this matter is not easy to handle, if the county magistrate wants to stay alive." ”

Li Mu said angrily, "He was framed in Song Cheng, I want to go to Kaifeng Mansion to sue him!" ”

The clerk sneered, "Second son, don't be stupid, since ancient times, officials have protected each other, Kaifeng Mansion Yin and the county master wear a pair of pants, who are you suing?" Besides, it's too late, I heard that the county lord has already decided, and he will behead the eldest prince in a few days! ”

"What?" Li Mu was stunned.

Li Mu hurriedly went home to discuss with the Tang family, the Tang family was a woman, and at this time he only knew how to shed tears.

Li Mu thought for a while, "Sister-in-law, I think it's better to go to the red lady and them, my eldest brother was killed because he was implicated by them." Don't they care? ”

Tang said, "But even if those people save your brother, it doesn't just give people the truth." Say your brother is a thief? ”

"Sister-in-law! What time is it now, it's all about saving your life! Let's save my brother's life first! Li Mu was sweating urgently. Finally persuaded Tang. Went to Jigong Mountain.

On Jigong Mountain, Li Guo and the Red Lady were preparing, and they already knew the news of Li Yan's arrest. Since they occupied Jigong Mountain, they sent two brothers into the county seat of Qixian to investigate the situation, so they learned the news of Li Yan's arrest.

At this time, someone came to report that Li Yan's brother Li Mu was here. Li Guo and the red lady nodded, and ordered someone to take Li Mu up the mountain.

Li Mu went to the mountain. When he saw the red lady and Li Guo, he immediately knelt down, hugged his head and cried.

Li Guo picked him up, "You don't have to cry, we know your intention, you are here to save Li Yan, we already know about this matter, and we are gathering people and horses to prepare to attack Qixian." So, you don't have to worry! ”

Li Mou's heart was a little relieved. But then he asked, "Although the county seat of Qixian is low and not strong, it is not easy to attack, I don't know how many of you there are?" ”

"There are about two hundred young and strong men." Li Guo replied.

"Just more than 200 people? Isn't it a little less? Li Mu asked worriedly.

Li Guo pouted. There are fewer people, won't Lao Tzu sneak attack.

Li Mu seemed to see Li Guo's thoughts, and said, "Then Song Cheng is insidious and cunning. Now send people to patrol the city wall day and night, and I am afraid it will not be easy to sneak attack. ”

"Li Mou. You don't have to worry, there will be a way to rescue Li Yan. The red lady comforted Li Mou.

But what's the solution? Li Guo couldn't help frowning. There are too few people. While I was thinking, I heard a commotion outside.

Li Guo and the Red Lady and others went out to check.

Outside were the people who Li Guo had taken in and left on Jigong Mountain, and at this time, they also knew the news of Li Yan's arrest, and they also heard that the Red Lady and Li Guo were preparing to rescue Li Yan. So, the crowd was full of emotions and wanted to follow Li Guo and the red lady together.

Li Yan spread his name in Qixian County, and he has always been to help the poor. Whenever there is a disaster year, Li Yan will definitely open a warehouse to give relief, so that the poor people can live. Therefore, Li Yan has a very high status in the hearts of the people of Qixian County.

This point made Li Guo admire. Li Guo secretly glanced at the delicate red lady beside him, no wonder in the original time and space, this woman in red would promise Li Yan with her body. But now, hehe, this beautiful red lady is about to be her own person.

Li Guo was happy in his heart, looking at the excited people, he had the idea of attacking Qi County.

Li Guosheng said, "Okay! On Jigong Mountain, regardless of men, women and children, if you are willing to save Li Yan, let's go! ”

The red lady was a little worried, "Childe, if it is not good to fight with the official army, what can those old and young do?" ”

Li Guo smiled, not worried at all, the Ming army in Henan did not resist, as long as the momentum was sufficient, there would be no problem.

In the army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful was the border army in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu, although it was also subordinate to the three sides of Hong Chengchou, but it stuck to the border, unique and strongest. The Jiliao border army on the front line of Shanhaiguan is the same as Hong Chengchou's border army, and its combat effectiveness is also extraordinary. In the coastal areas of Fujian, Zheng Zhilong's army is also said to be very effective.

And the Ming army in Henan is not good, they can deal with thirty or fifty small bandits, and large-scale battles are rarely experienced.

Therefore, since the sneak attack failed, then take down Qixian openly!

Seeing that the red lady had some doubts, Li Guo smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, there is a lot of power!" Not only do all the people in Jigong Mountain want to save Li Yan, but I also want to mobilize the people of the entire Qixian County to save Li Yan! ”

After Li Guo spoke his thoughts in detail, the red lady and the others understood.

The first step was to blockade Qi County, Li Guo personally led the team to go, and three hundred young men on Jigong Mountain guarded the four gates of Qi County. Li Guo deliberately jumped out of a hundred brave and powerful horses, riding horses from all over the place, and kept patrolling between the four gates.

And the red lady took the old and young of Jigong Mountain to the countryside and towns, agitating to the people everywhere, gathering more people to come to the county seat of Qixian County. Two days later, in addition to the remote, timid, and cowardly, tens of thousands of people had gathered outside the county seat of Qixian County. In addition to these people wanting to rescue Li Yan, they have already made a promise to the Red Lady and others. After laying down Qi County, open a warehouse and release grain!

People who drink wild vegetable stick noodle porridge all day long, but when they hear the word food, their eyes are shining, what else does it matter! The people came one after another with the broken pots and pots at home, and for nothing else, there was a bang and a bang. Although the sound is mixed, the momentum is earth-shattering.

But people in Qixian County are panicking.

When Li Guo surrounded Qixian with three hundred strong people, although Song Cheng was also panicked, he was able to hold his nerves, and this person still couldn't get in.

However, after two or three days, more and more people gathered outside, although it could be seen that there were also many old and young inside, Song Cheng couldn't hold his breath. Song Cheng is a civil official, and he has a lot of means to exploit the people, but he can't fight a war at all. originally relied on Zhao Tuanlian, who belonged to his jurisdiction, but Zhao Tuanlian was killed by the Red Lady, leaving him with nothing to rely on.

Song Cheng wanted to send someone to Kaifeng for help, but unfortunately, Li Guo was very strict and had no chance.

What can I do? Song Cheng scratched his head in worry, Li Yan, who was imprisoned in the prison, could not be killed at this time, maybe he could become a hostage, and he could be used as a bargaining chip in negotiations, Song Cheng thought in his heart, and ordered someone to take a good look at Li Yan.

The Ming army defending the city had no morale, and Zhang Zhutou and Zhao Tuanlian were killed, which made them afraid of the Red Lady. Now seeing so many people outside the city, one by one is even more flustered.

Li Guo did not order an immediate attack, and although Qixian did not have a famous general and was not strong, he decided to wait two days. Although there were tens of thousands of people outside the city, it was just a rabble, and first reducing the fighting spirit of the defending soldiers and then launching an attack would reduce a lot of casualties.

So, under Li Guo's order, the people outside the city were divided into several groups, knocking on broken pots and broken pots day and night, and the shouts made the Ming army not rest, and only two days later, the Ming army was depressed. (To be continued......)
