The ringing horse thief was a step slower, and the number of people was even smaller than that of the other party. One side is high-spirited and vigorous, and the other side is stubborn resistance under despair, this battle does not need to be fought, and the outcome is doomed.

The Jedi counterattack did not achieve a jaw-dropping miracle, the process of the battle did not seem to exist, and there was no wonderful scene of a fierce battle between the leaders of the two sides. Even, Peng Dazhui, who rushed to the front, failed to make a move with Shi Dayong on the opposite side.

With more than a dozen bangs, the wolf cavalry passed the horse thieves who were desperately fighting with the Peng family's uncles and nephews, and rushed straight to the remaining bandits who were still scrambling to flee for their lives.

Under the rapid blow of the unexpected and well-trained elite cavalry of Liaozhen, the rabble of Hebei horse households were vulnerable, except for the second leader Qi Lao Er who escaped with three horse thieves, the rest were either killed or captured.

Peng was hit by a three-eyed hammer, but he was not injured at the vital point, only his left arm. The force of the hammer forced his weight to tilt to one side, and he fell to the ground. By the time I got up in pain, the tide was gone.

Peng Sihai's luck was much better than that of his uncle, he was not hit by a gun, and he was not injured, he just saw that his uncle was hit by the fire of officers and soldiers, and he was so anxious that when he was about to turn over and dismount to save his uncle, he was knocked to the ground by a high-speed war horse. It's a shame that his body is strong enough, otherwise, I'm afraid he would have only half a life left.

Easily solved the ringing horse thieves, none of his subordinates were killed or injured, Shi Dayong was in a good mood, on the one hand, he asked people to collect the military horses of the ringing horse thieves, and on the other hand, he asked people to take the prisoners of the ringing horse thieves. As for the Jingying in the town, he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and he couldn't get out with them.

After the captives arrived, a total of 39 people were counted, including Peng Dazhu's uncle and nephew.

There is no official government in Qiushui Town, and the nearest Huanghua City is thirty miles away, Shi Dayong cannot hand over these ringing horse thieves to the local government, and his Jinzhou army is going to Dengzhou, so naturally he will not bring these prisoners. Leave it to Jingying, Shi Dayong is worried that those wastes can't be detained, and if something happens again, it will cause trouble.

Simply, kill them all.

It is natural for a soldier to kill a thief.

Glancing at the dejected Xiangma thief on the horse, Shi Dayong didn't have anything to say to them, and nodded at Cao Bianjiao, who immediately led someone to steal the Xiangma

When he was in the northwest, Cao Bianjiao often saw his uncle Cao Wenzhao beheading those thieves. Seeing those children who were as old as himself and even younger than himself being executed, Cao Bianjiao couldn't bear it, and asked his uncle why he did this, why didn't he even let go of the children!

Cao Wenzhao's answer was: "Anyone who can hold a knife is not a child." ”

Cao Wenzhao said the truth, no matter how young those children were, they could also hold knives, and when the two armies fought, their knives would also kill officers and soldiers, so from the moment they joined the thieves, they were no longer people, but thieves.

If these children are spared today, they will join the thieves again and become the great enemies of the officers and soldiers.

The thing that causes trouble is not the work of a wise man.

Children can be killed, not to mention that these are adult horse thieves.

Cao Bianjiao didn't have a little psychological burden, and he calmly led his subordinates to prepare to kill prisoners.

Seeing the murderous intent in the eyes of the officers and soldiers, the horse thieves knew that they were in trouble, but no one was afraid, and no one begged for mercy. They looked at each other, and their eyes were very firm, as if to say: Brother, our brothers will see you again on the Huangquan Road!

Peng Sihai, who was supporting his uncle, tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes as if no one was around, and carefully wrapped his uncle's bleeding arm.

Peng Dazhui stood there calmly, motionless and let his nephew stop the bleeding for him, without frowning.

The composure of the horse thieves made Shi Dayong a little admired, the Jiannu captured under the city of Jinzhou could not but be said to be fierce, but once they were captured, they were quickly cowardly like turtle eggs, and these horse thieves in front of them were a little more backbone than Jiannu, which made people feel surprised.

Cao Bianjiao snorted coldly, slowly pulled out the knife, and behind him, dozens of fire guns were raised.

The horse thieves moved, but instead of a commotion of fear, they leaned closer to each other, with Peng Dazhu's uncle and nephew as the center, and the group was tightly there. Back to back, look at death as home.

Cao Bianjiao turned his head to look at Shi Dayong, waiting for his order, but Shi Dayong didn't give the order to do it, he was waiting.

For some reason, the gang of horse thieves in front of him who were about to be slaughtered made Shi Dayong think of being surrounded by Jiannu cavalry outside Dalinghe City.

At that time, he and his subordinates didn't regard death as if they were like these horse thieves.

Heroes cherish heroes, although the difference in their respective identities is destined for only one side of the two sides to survive, but Shi Dayong suddenly has something to look forward to.

He expected that someone among the Ringing Horse Thieves would suddenly open his mouth to beg for mercy, instead of looking at him and his men with hatred and fearlessness, as he did now. This will make him feel guilty, as if he is the big villain in the movie.

If there was really someone among the horse thieves begging for mercy at this moment, he said that he would not consider letting this person live. After all, these people are also the people of the Ming Dynasty, officials. If you force the people, even if you let him go, it will not affect anything.

In this big era, the little people can't change history, and they can't affect history

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound of horse thieves begging for mercy, but one by one there was an impatient look on their faces, and the corners of some people's mouths showed a look of ridicule.

The behavior of the horse thieves naturally caused the wolf riders to be annoyed for a while, and they all looked at Shi Dayong with pleading eyes, hoping to kill these thieves immediately.

Shi Dayong sighed, he couldn't ignore the requests of his subordinates, since no one begged for mercy from these horse thieves, if he waited any longer, he would inevitably stick a hot face to someone's cold ass.

With a slight movement of the fingers, the order must be given.

Among the horse thieves, someone spoke at the right time, but what he said was not the begging for mercy that Shi Dayong was expecting, but an angry scolding: "Thief official dog, if you want to kill or chop, hurry up, I want to see the jokes of the masters, dream!" ”

"If you want to kill, kill it, rub something, your head will hit the ground, and you will still be a good man after eighteen years!"

Hearing the shouts of the horse thieves, Cao Bianjiao sneered and shouted at Shi Dayong: "General, since they want to die, let them be fulfilled." As he spoke, he swung his sword, and as soon as he swung it, the fire behind him would immediately fire.

Shi Dayong raised his hand to signal Xiao Cao not to worry, lightly rode his horse forward for more than a dozen steps, and stopped at a distance of more than three feet from the horse thieves, and said to them in a loud voice: "You thieves, you are really a little bold. Since ancient times, Yan Zhao has been a hero, although you are thieves, but for now, you should also be a hero. Ben will respect you as men who are not afraid of death, so I will give you a way to live. As long as you open your mouth and beg Ben for mercy, Ben will let you go, how about it? ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a middle-aged man push aside the people in front of him and walk out of the crowd. The man's left arm was obviously wounded, and although it was bandaged, the blood was still oozing out, and the placket of his shirt was red and red.

By the light of the torches that had just been lit, Shi Dayong felt that this person's figure was a little familiar, and immediately thought that it was the horse thief who had excellent equestrian skills.

Seeing that this ringing horse thief came out, the eyes of the rest of the ringing horse thieves all converged on him, and Shi Dayong knew that this person was the leader of this group of ringing horse thieves.

When the leader came out, he thought that he was moved by his own words, and who in the world is really not afraid of death. If this leader begs for mercy, let him live today, Shi Dayong thought

Peng Dazhui was led out by Shi Dayong's words, but he didn't beg for mercy, but walked to the front, looked up and down at Shi Dayong, who was wearing a mask on the horse, and suddenly "Phew!" He spat at him.

Shi Dayong couldn't avoid it, and the thick phlegm fell on his chest at once.

"Look for death!"

Dare to be so rude to my general! Cao Bianjiao was furious, and slashed at Peng Dazhui with a swing of his knife.

Peng Dazhui was injured in his left arm, and his right arm was dislocated when he fell from the horse, and he was unable to fight back at all. But when he saw the knife coming, he didn't dodge, just stood there straight, and let Cao Bianjiao's knife cut him.

"Xiao Cao, stop!"

When the tip of the knife was only an inch away from Peng Dazhu's neck, Shi Dayong stopped in time.

Cao Bianjiao immediately put away his knife, looked back at Shi Dayong suspiciously, and didn't understand why the general didn't let him kill this rude thief.

Shi Dayong hated the thick phlegm, but he appreciated the courage of the horse thief even more, and he had already wanted to solicit in his heart.

The matter of recruiting thieves, the owner of the body has not done it, and Li Dashan was not a bandit in the green forest back then.

Moreover, although these horse thieves are just a group of rabble, they are all born in horse households, with outstanding riding skills, and with a little training, they are all the foundation of elite cavalry. Even if you don't form an army, you can bring it back to Jinzhou as an equestrian coach, and you can solve a big problem for yourself.

In short, it would be a bit of a miscalculation to let this group of ready-made cavalry not recruit.

"Your Excellency has good skills, why bother to be this loud horse thief who robs houses? The so-called acquisition of literary and martial arts was sold to the emperor's family. With your ability, you will not be a thief and join the army, and your glory and wealth are just around the corner, and it is unknown that he will leave a name in history. If you are interested, you may wish to follow the general's account, share the emperor's worries, and work hard for the court, how about it? "Shi Dayong sincerely wants to recruit this gang of horse thieves, so he is also telling the truth, digging out his heart.

Unexpectedly, after Peng Dazhui heard this, it was Ha Lu Ha Da Lu who laughed, laughed for a moment, looked at each other angrily, and said angrily: "Die for the court?" Joke, big joke! If it weren't for the persecution of the government, why would we be this horse thief! You asked us to work for those dog officers today, didn't you make fun of us! Which of us has not been oppressed by the government, which family has not been forced to ruin the family, if it is not forced to a desperate situation, which one is willing to be this knife licking horse thief! If I agree, ask my brothers if they will answer. ”

After speaking, he turned to the crowd of horse thieves and shouted, "Brothers, do you want to work for the court!" ”

Peng Sihai blurted out: "I want a ball!" If you want Lao Tzu to work for the court, kill those dog officials first! ”

"You can work for anyone, but you don't work for the dog officials!"

"There's nothing to say, if you want to kill, hurry up, Hugh has to be happy here to find Lao Tzu!"

“”

A group of horse thieves refused to die for the court, which made Shi Dayong a little stunned. sighed secretly, and I don't know what the magistrates in their hometown have done to force these Ma Hu, who were originally good citizens, to hate the court so much.

But he still did not give up the intention of soliciting, and continued to persuade: "Your Excellency is a bandit, and you will know that there is something unavoidable, but this is all done by corrupt officials and corrupt officials. According to the general's opinion, if you really hate those dog officials, you must listen to the general's persuasion and serve the court. If you are stubborn, who will know your grievances when you die?

At present, the country is suffering from internal and external troubles, and it is the time to employ people, as long as you are willing to use your life, it is not difficult to get ahead. Ben Jiang really values you and waits, so he persuaded him bitterly, you wait for yourself to be cautious. ”

Hearing these words, Peng Dazhui was a little moved, he dared to scold the official, dare to kill the official, but he never thought of scolding the emperor. In the eyes of him and his subordinates, the emperor is ignorant of everything that happens below, and if he knows that the officials in charge of the Tao are oppressing the people like this, he will definitely be the master of the people. If it is really as the masked general said, if you can see the emperor with military merits and ask the emperor to make decisions for them, then won't your grievances be resolved?

The horse thieves also lost their voices at this time, and their eyes were full of concern, obviously moved by Shi Dayong's words.

After hesitating, Peng Da Hammer caught a glimpse of those subordinates who were killed by the wolf cavalry, and suddenly felt sad, raised his head and said to Shi Dayong: "The general is kind, I Peng Da Hammer is grateful." But the general has killed so many of my brothers, how can I vote for you again! If I do that, how will I face these brethren after I die! ”

Hearing the other party call himself a general, Shi Dayong's heart moved, and he shouted: "The husband has clear grievances, officers and soldiers kill thieves, it is a matter of course, if you are a soldier and I am a thief, how to deal with it!" It is a pity for the dead, but Your Excellency still thinks well for the living. ”

Peng Dazhui can't refute it, it is the principle of heaven for officers and soldiers to kill thieves, but if it were him, he would not be soft.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Dare to ask where the general came from?" ”

Shi Dayong said: "This general is a general of Jinzhou under the account of the governor of Liaodong. ”

"Liaodong's soldiers and horses?" Peng Da Hammer was stunned: Isn't that the soldier who resisted the Tartars outside the gate?

There is no shame in throwing in the Liao army, it is better than throwing these bears in the pass, but if you really vote for it, Peng Dazhui is also a little unwilling, after all, in today's battle, most of the brothers under him called this group of Liao soldiers to kill. I don't want to take revenge, but I defect to these Liao troops, how can I have a good conscience?

Seeing that Peng Dazhui was still hesitant, Shi Dayong was also a little impatient, and asked again: "What, are you still unwilling to invest in the account?" ”

Peng Dazhui did not speak.

Shi Dayong thought for a while, and then said: "If you really don't want to serve the imperial court under the account of this general, it is not easy for this general to force it." However, Ben will be able to make a deal with you. ”

"Deal?" Peng Dazhui looked at Shi Dayong puzzled.

Shi Dayong nodded: "It's a deal." He pointed at him and the group of horse thieves behind him, "Today, Ben will be ordered to go east to Dengzhou to relieve the siege, and you can go with Ben General and serve in the army." After the rebels are pacified, Ben will let you and your brother go, what do you think? ”

Peng Dazhui was stunned for a moment, and said: "This is not to ask me to wait for your account to serve, what kind of deal is it?" ”

Shi Dayong said unequivocally: "It's not a service, it's a deal." If you don't agree to the life-for-life deal, you will be killed right now! If you agree, the lives of you and your men will be the same, so I don't know if you understand? ”

"Your deal is hard for a strong man!" Peng Dazhui was a little anxious.

Shi Dayong ignored him, and his tone became a little stern, "What about the difficulty of a strong man, Ben will ask you again after the last minute, are you willing to make this deal with Ben Jiang!" ”

"Me"

Peng Dazhui was unable to make a decision for a while, and when he saw that the other party was staring at the brothers behind him, he couldn't help but subconsciously look back at his nephew Sihai. The latter was looking at his uncle with a blank face at this time.

With a heart, Peng Dazhui turned his head and gritted his teeth and said to Shi Dayong: "How do I know if you will regret killing us again afterwards?" ”

Shi Dayong asked him rhetorically: "If I want to kill you, why bother talking nonsense with you here?" ”

Peng Dazhui couldn't answer, looked at Shi Dayong, and then looked at the brothers, suddenly took two steps forward, knelt on the ground, and arched his hand: "Thank you for the grace of General Xie, I, Peng Dazhui and all the brothers, are willing to serve the general, but please let the general fulfill his promise one day!" ”
