Chapter 211: Slaughtering the Village

Li Yue said lightly, "Have you ever heard of being left to death and then reborn?" ”

Everyone was silent, what if Xianbei really risked the unthinkable and passed through Daliang Mountain without fear of death? What will be the consequences? This border is simply self-defeating, thinking of this, a trace of unbelievable fear appeared on everyone's face, including Zhao Zhutou.

Li Yun saw everyone's expressions in his eyes and said, "Zhao Zhutou doesn't have to worry, even if this Xianbei sends someone to come in from Daliang Mountain, it will not be a large army, they can't afford that kind of loss, even if they send someone over Daliang Mountain, it will only be a temptation to send a small group of troops in." ”

Zhao Zhutou frowned and thought deeply, "Then since this is the case, what is their purpose?" ”

One of them quickly remembered the injured villagers and said angrily, "They can't be the ones who came to slaughter the villagers on the border, right?" It's simply inhuman. ”

Li Yue had an idea in her heart, but Li Yue was vigilant and did not say it at this time, because of habit, when facing danger again, Li Yue had a deep sense of vigilance at any time, and she knew what she should say and what she shouldn't say.

Thinking of those Xianbei cavalry who didn't know where they went, Li Yue opened his mouth and said, "The top priority is to find out where those cavalry are hiding first, and find a way to eliminate them, otherwise there will be more people who will suffer, we are not enough, Zhao Putou, I am afraid that I will trouble you to notify the county commander again, and send some more officers and soldiers over, preferably with cavalry with horses." ”

Zhao Zhutou nodded, called a few catchers, and was about to send them back to move reinforcements, at this time Li Yun said to Li Yue, "You also go with them and go back first." ”

Li Yue shook her head and said, "Maybe you will meet injured people later, Lin Xiao and I can't leave, let the shopkeeper Qu go back first." ”

Li Yun's brows furrowed slightly, and he said disapprovingly, "Then Lin Xiao stays, you go back to the county seat first." ”

Li Yue insisted on staying, as if she hadn't heard what Li Yun said, she said, "Trouble these two big brothers." ”

Zhao Zhutou watched Li Yue completely ignore Li Yun and walked away, laughing and teasing, "Gongzi Li, your words as a prince are useless." ”

After that, Li Yue went to tell the shopkeeper Qu and told them to go back to Linzi County first, as for going to Linbo County, they can only talk about it later.

Yi'er heard that Li Yue wanted to stay, so she said, "I know martial arts, so I'll stay too." ”

Li Yue shook her head, "You go back with Shopkeeper Qu and them, there are so many catches here, and your martial arts can't be used, you help protect Shopkeeper Qu and their safety along the way." ”

Yi'er had to nod obediently, followed the shopkeeper Qu and them, got into the carriage of the shopkeeper Qu, and went on the road with the two catchers who were going back to Linzi County.

Li Yun asked Li Zhong to go back to Linzi first, so that he could keep in touch with him, and then come directly to them with reinforcements.

After sending away the shopkeeper Qu and the others, and leaving some medicine and food brought by Li Yun to the villagers, Li Yue taught a few villagers to learn to change the medicine with everyone, and then Zhao Zhutou waved his hand and beckoned everyone to prepare to go, planning to find those murderous bandits.

Li Yue felt that it was a bit inappropriate to look for them blindly, so she recruited the survivors in the village, and then asked, "Which of you is more familiar with the situation around your village?" ”

A middle-aged man stood up and said, "I am a craftsman, and I often help people work around our village, and I am quite familiar with the surrounding situation. ”

Li Yue responded, "Then you go with us, lead the way, and go to the nearest village to you first." ”

The middle-aged man didn't refuse, and readily agreed, with so many officials and adults, he was also very relieved.

Everyone packed up and went to the next village, it only took half an hour to arrive, but what they saw was the same tragic situation, Zhao Zhutou and they were the first time to look at this tragic situation, seeing such a scene, they were all indignant and eager to break the inhuman murderers into pieces.

Li Yue saw such a scene again, and her eyes were red, and she secretly said that these Xianbei cavalry were simply too inhumane, looked at the situation in this village, and said while looking for the survivors, "We are going in the wrong direction, this village was ransacked before the village we just came." ”

Zhao Zhutou asked suspiciously, "How do you know?" ”

I heard Lin Xiao, who was treating the wounds of an injured person on the side, say, "Many of these people died of excessive blood loss, and judging from the time of their injuries, they were injured earlier than the people from the previous village. ”

Zhao Zhutou listened to the words of the two people, thinking that these two doctors who knew medical skills stayed, and it really played a big role, not only to save the injured villagers, but also to analyze the situation through the injured people.

The survivors in this village were all lightly injured, slightly more seriously injured, almost all of them died because of excessive blood loss and did not receive timely treatment, and in the end, Li Yue and they rescued only more than ten people, as for those who escaped the catastrophe like the previous village, but I heard those survivors say that they have fled to the county town to report the case.

Looking at such a scene, everyone knew that they must find this group of bandits as soon as possible, and they must not stay here for long, otherwise they do not know how many people will continue to be slaughtered.

After settling the wounded villagers, and burying the dead villagers, the group set out again, picking up their pace and heading in the opposite direction they had taken.

In one day, I walked through three or four villages, but they were all looted, and they became more and more ruthless, and there were fewer and fewer survivors, and there were two villages, and there was almost no survivor.

Li Yue's brows furrowed even deeper, she sat on the back of the horse in front of Li Yun, and said, "It doesn't feel like a group of people, it's another group that destroys the village, and the action is even more ruthless." ”

Li Yun heard Li Yue's words and whispered, "What do you think is the purpose of their doing this?" ”

can play Qi Pengfei and others around, leading other people's noses, Li Yun doesn't think that Li Yue is just a simple country girl, at this time he actually wants to hear Li Yue's thoughts, although he also has some conjectures in his heart.

Li Yue, who listened to it, said softly, "Such a brutal massacre, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the imperial court, I feel that their purpose is to distract the border defenders, and Xianbei is afraid that they are about to start making a move." ”

Li Yun nodded admiringly, and said, "It's already late, looking at the situation in the last village, I'm afraid we will meet the first batch of bandits in the next village." ”

Li Yue responded, "I don't know how many of them there are, when will the reinforcements brought by Li Zhong arrive?" ”

Li Yun said, "Just this distance, we can almost arrive at night, after a while, Lin Xiao and I will go forward to explore first, take a look at the situation ahead, you and everyone will wait for us to come back first, if there are too many people, let's wait for Li Zhong to bring someone over first." ”

Li Yue nodded, and was about to speak, when Lin Xiao, who was driving the carriage on the side, suddenly grabbed the reins of the horse and stopped, and said loudly, "Someone is coming." ”

Li Yun also stopped, and Zhao Zhutou in the back looked at the carriage in front of him and Li Yun stopped, waved his hand behind him, signaled everyone to stop first, and walked quickly to Li Yun by himself, and asked, "Why did you stop?" ”

Lin Xiao, who listened to it, repeated again, "There is the sound of horses' hooves, and there are a lot of people." ”

Zhao Zhutou listened to Lin Xiao's words, pricked up his ears and listened carefully, but he didn't hear anything, and asked suspiciously, "Are you sure someone is coming?" ”

Li Yun, who was listening to the side, also spoke, "I'm sure someone is approaching." ”

Li Yue didn't doubt the judgment of the two, and hurriedly asked, "Can you hear how many people there are?" ”

Lin Xiao said, "At least fifty horses or more." ”

Li Yue listened to Lin Xiao's answer, and said while looking at the terrain left and right, "So much? We have to find a place to hide first, and we can't go head-to-head with them. "But this is a flat land, and there is nothing to hide.

Li Yun, who listened to it, sighed, "It's too late, their horses are faster than ours." ”

As soon as Li Yun finished speaking, even Li Yue could clearly hear the sound of horses' hooves, and quickly approached them.

Li Yue heard it, and of course the others also heard it, and Zhao Zhutou shouted, "Everyone, pay attention, prepare to fight." ”

Li Yun said to Li Yue in his arms, "You go to the carriage and leave here with Lin Xiao first, and we will stop them." ”

Without waiting for Li Yue to refuse, Lin Xiao directly rejected Li Yun's proposal, "Our carriage is too slow, and there is only one road here, if you go forward, you may also encounter Xianbei cavalry, and the way to go back has been blocked." ”

Li Yun listened to Lin Xiao's words, and he also knew that this method was not feasible, and he was worried that Li Yue was too flustered just now, so he didn't think about it carefully.

So Li Yunfei lifted his light skills, directly sent Li Yue to the carriage, and asked, "Can the bow and crossbow be on the body?" ”

Li Yue nodded, and Li Yun continued to Li Yue, "Stay in the carriage and don't come out, if someone approaches the carriage, shoot him with a bow and crossbow." ”

Li Yue nodded in response, "Don't worry about me, you be careful yourself." ”

The person who had been sitting in the carriage to guide the way, no matter how stupid he was, knew that it was the gang of murderous bandits who were coming, and the whole person was already trembling in the corner of the carriage in fright.

When Li Yue saw it, she said comfortingly, "You just stay in the carriage obediently, don't make a sound, and you'll be fine." ”

The guide nodded in horror, and Li Yue looked out from the small window behind the carriage, Zhao Zhutou and the others had already pulled out their sabers at their waists, sat on their horses, facing the direction of rushing behind, ready to fight at any time, Li Yun and Lin Xiao were also one person and one horse. The two of them were behind the carriage, and they looked ready to protect the carriage.

Immediately after that, Li Yue finally saw a group of people who came over on horseback, Li Yue roughly estimated that there were at least seventy or eighty people, and they were dressed as border people, and those people looked at the people blocking the intersection here, and they also stopped, and then they all pulled out the slender saber on their waists, raised their knives and shouted excitedly towards Li Yun who was blocking the intersection here.
