Chapter 148: The Spring Breeze is Triumphant
Crying blood staring at Xu Xi, Wu Zhong cursed: "I curse you and Xu Xi to kill each other and die, and you will not die well." ”
A wisp of black was like a mist, and something that could be seen but could not be touched wrapped around his eyebrows.
Cursed?
The curse ended, the black light disappeared, and Wu Zhong was resentful, eager to drink his blood, eat his flesh, and sleep at Jiang Shuang.
With a cold snort, what about the curse, the knife in his hand fell, Jiang Shuang took 200,000 luck IOUs from the corpse and burned them along with other IOUs.
"Kill me, don't leave the chickens and dogs. And the people locked themselves in their houses and set them on fire. ”
"No!" The brutal order was carried out.
Soon Wu Zhong's mansion burst into flames, and Jiang Shuang rushed to the slave market with a dozen remaining soldiers to support.
Standing on the city wall, you can see the chaos in the city, Wu Zhong's mansion is on fire, and the sound of fighting in the slave market is shocking.
"Damn, there's someone else doing it tonight." Xiao Feng and the others were annoyed.
Seeing the fire in Wu Zhong's mansion, Xu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but the fighting in the slave market was too loud, and he couldn't rest assured: "This is not your people?" ”
"Not at all, we just want to punish the goalkeeper, not to tear up with the city lord, things are in trouble."
"Shall we go and see what's going on?"
Xiao Feng immediately made a decision: "No, no, the rangers and green forest heroes we recruited are not disciplined, once they are sent out, it will definitely cause even greater riots, and they may even loot the city." We can't move right now. ”
"I'll take a look and find out what's going on." Xu Xi explained: "I participated in your operation to catch the silverfish and leave a good impression on the city lord, and now that something is happening in the city, I want to understand the situation and do my best." ”
Xu Xi's reasons were high-sounding, Xiao Feng couldn't refuse, he could only agree, and watched Xu Xi leave with his large army.
The battle in the slave market was still raging, and it was impossible for his own 70 militia to defeat the ranks of the slave traders, so Li Xingluo was ruthless and led a team on a rampage, freeing all the slaves who were soldiers and giving them weapons.
As a result, the melee expanded further, and when a large number of slave soldiers joined the battle, the battle reached a stalemate. And at this moment, Jiang Shuang rushed to me with this team.
Jiang Shuang's team consisted of only a dozen people, and all of them were wounded, and the increase in combat power was limited, but it caused fear among the slave traders. Tonight there is war in the city, and they already know it. But who provoked the battle, they don't know yet.
Li Xingluo's team is not the same as the team attacking and attacking the city at night, and now that the other party can come with one team to reinforce it, can it come with two or three?
The slave traders here are only part of their property, although it is a big loss to lose them, but at least they will not be greatly damaged, and once their slave catchers and soldiers are killed and injured, it is really hurt.
Seeing that the casualties of their troops had reached three or four percent, many slave merchants were distressed and retreated to their residences to defend.
The remaining slave traders who forgot their lives suddenly fell into an embattled situation, five slave traders were beheaded, and the rest fled in a hurry, and the slave soldiers and Li Xingluo and others did not chase and kill.
The battle was won, Li Xingluo and Jiang Shuang rescued all the slaves, Jiang Shuang made an impromptu speech, promising hope, but there were not many slave soldiers willing to join their team, but ninety percent of the slaves chose to join them.
Li Xingluo and Jiang Shuang did not have the slightest joy, after a bloody battle, their troops suffered heavy losses, and there were only more than 20 soldiers left in their hands, and it was obviously impossible to break through the city gate with such a few soldiers and return to Dongtu Village with so many slaves.
If it weren't for the city lord going out, the soldiers and horses in the city were in their own camps, guarding their strongholds and not coming out for reinforcements, they would have been wiped out.
At this moment, Xu Xi finally arrived nearby, and without saying a word, he entered the private house, reflected the concentrated thousand-year-old Lingzhi liquid, and gave each of the 45 soldiers in his team 3 bottles of concentrated thousand-year-old Lingzhi liquid (reflection), so that they could summon the lowest-level traveling horses and become cavalry.
Handed over the 45 cavalry to Li Xingluo's hands, Xu Xi asked them to quickly bring people back to the territory, while he took 6 militiamen back to meet Xiao Feng, he needed an alibi.
Things went even more smoothly than Xu Xi thought, all the slave soldiers did not need to be organized, and took the initiative to launch an attack on the north city gate, but when Li Xingluo and Jiang Shuang arrived with people, the battle for the city gate had already come to an end. When they joined, they quickly ended the battle and captured the North Gate.
The gates were opened, and the crowd swarmed out and disappeared into the night.
This night, Xu Xi accompanied Xiao Feng and others all night sleeplessly.
The next day, the first rays of sunlight had just appeared, and the team of the city lord Wu Ming appeared outside the city.
Xiao Feng and the others did not want to rebel, they immediately went out of the city to surrender and explained the situation to Wu Ming. Xu Xi is not a planner, but a participant, so this matter has nothing to do with him.
Returning to Xiao Li's house to wait for the results, Xiao Feng came back when Xu Xi and Xiao Li were having lunch, his face was blue and ugly, and he brought back bad news.
"Things don't go the way we imagined." Xiao Feng said gloomily: "Lord Wu Ming, the city lord, is very angry, no lord will be happy when he learns that his city gate was easily captured and hundreds of soldiers have been killed in battle, in the face of these losses, the corruption of a gatekeeper seems to have become insignificant. ”
"I've heard your name city lord has also heard, but I'm afraid it's not a good image, now is not the best time for you to meet the city lord, and last night, the city lord's younger brother died, and the city lord will clean up the whole city, you better leave here first and avoid the limelight."
Xiao Feng's suggestion Xu Xi accepted, he didn't care what the city lord thought of him, so he was happy to leave the city.
Then Xiao Feng paid Xu Xi five hundred qi as a reward, last night's action, Xu Xi can be said to have done nothing at all, the reason why Xiao Feng paid so much was because he had an additional request, asking Xu Xi to take in his younger brother Xiao Li.
Xu Xi's Dongtu Village is not large, but if you want to develop, it is inseparable from business, and this small-scale business may be an opportunity for Xiao Li to exercise and grow.
This is to send talents to himself, Xu Xi agreed, Xiao Li joined Xu Xi's team, and Xu Xi and his party left Pure Bridge City.
The spring breeze was proud, Xu Xi and the militia and Xiao Li rode their horses, all the way to the dust, and returned to their territory, before Li Xingluo and Jiang Shuang's team returned, he needed to be ready to receive it.
I don't know how many soldiers and civilians I have acquired, and what kind of scale will my Dongtu Village expand?
At this time, Xu Xi didn't know that in Dongtu Village, there was a surprise waiting for him.
