Chapter 153: Edge
Chapter 152: Sharp
But a cup of tea in time, up to work. Basket. Hue. Book. Ba, these mountain bandits are not stupid, and they immediately felt something unusual. It's just that it's too late at this point. Zheng Qingluan suddenly made a move, and the dagger slashed through the neck artery of the beard, this action was like a signal, Liu Xinshou and Guo Feiyan hurriedly shot, Zheng Qingluan looked like that, watching them cut each other's throats expressionlessly, or directly twisted their necks. At this time, there was also the sound of a fight outside the door, Zheng Qingluan saw that Liu Xinshou and Guo Feiyan could deal with it, got up and went out, and saw Jin Shun fighting with the two, obviously, this was a secret whistle that they did not find. Seeing that Jin Shun held the dagger several times, he had the opportunity to attack, but he did not move. She knew that Jin Soon was not mentally prepared.
One of the mountain bandits took out the fire fold, and Zheng Qingluan took a look at it and knew that this matter was a signal smoke. Immediately threw the dagger in his hand, and the dagger carried the whistling wind and straightened the neck of the mountain bandit. And Jin Shunzheng was fighting with one person, and when he saw that the other wanted to ask for help, he was so anxious that he couldn't care about much, so he bullied himself and broke the other party's neck. When I looked back, I realized that the person I wanted to ask for help had been killed by my master. He knew that because of his hesitation, the operation almost failed. It will even put the master in danger.
"Don't be stunned, haven't you learned how to clean the battlefield" Zheng Qingluan didn't blame, she knew that no one could kill without psychological pressure, not to mention that he was just a child.
Jin Shun nodded gratefully, "Yes" He quickly stabbed the hearts of each of the two corpses, even if it was confirmed that the other party was dead, it was foolproof. After that, the body was dragged to the room. Liu Xinshou and Guo Feiyan in the room were also already cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the materials on these mountain bandits. All three had just experienced the killing, and none of them spoke.
Zheng Qingluan went to the backyard, the three horses of the mountain bandits had been stunned, and the two mountain bandits who accompanied Kang Lai had also been cooked. It's just that Kang Lai has some pinching marks on his neck, and obviously he has also struggled with killing people. I'm afraid that at this time, he has already understood what is the real life and death, if you don't kill him, he will kill you. There is no room for mercy on the battlefield. He sat on the ground, gasping for air. Although the battlefield had been cleaned, it was clear that he had not recovered yet.
Zheng Qingluan didn't come forward to disturb, he had to learn to adjust by himself. She turned to the kitchen, and Merlin's performance brightened her eye. The three bandits were trapped hand and foot, and there was dried meat on the table. Apparently Merlin took out the drugged jerky and entertained the bandits. Fascinated by the trio, Merlin is interrogating.
"How many people are there on the mountain," Merlin's voice sounded a little nonchalant. "Don't say yes."
Merlin picked up a mountain bandit, and the dagger slashed through the opponent's neck, and blood rushed out instantly. The other two bandits, watching their companions being killed, could not be frightened Merlin asked again, "How many are there on the mountain?" and without waiting for them to answer, the dagger slashed at the finger of one man, and at the same time gagged the man's mouth so that he would not make a sound. When the finger was cut off, the two realized that the child, who didn't look very old, was a ruthless person. 1510 poured beans and generally said it cleanly.
"You've killed a few people, but you've raped a good woman," Merlin's voice was chilling to the bone. The hoarse voice of the young man in the voice change period fell, and he saw that the two of them were trembling.
Merlin seemed to explain to the two mountain bandits, and as if to convince himself, "Then killing you is not wronged" before the words fell, and his hand fell with a knife, and he cut the throats of the two of them with a knife.
Later, when I saw him looking through and collecting the things on this mountain bandit, his hands were still a little shaky.
After he finished cleaning up, Zheng Qingluan appeared, and Merlin's forced composure and called the master.
"Well done," Zheng Qingluan praised.
The six of them gathered at the stable, Zheng Qingluan waved his hand, got on his horse, and galloped towards the camping place. Disappeared in the blink of an eye.
One hundred and twenty-two saw that the master had come back intact, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
The six of them hurriedly ate before they got together again.
Zheng Qingluan took out a piece of paper from his arms, "This is the news of the Tiger King Village that I asked people to collect in advance." He handed Merlin the paper, "See how different it is from what you got"
Liu Xinshou and the others glanced at Merlin in surprise, they didn't expect this kid to have this hand, they didn't think of this, they just didn't have the opportunity to do it. I didn't expect this guy to be a good means.
Merlin smiled and looked at it carefully, "Six or seven percent are consistent." Then he smiled a little embarrassedly, "The rest of them, some of them I didn't think to ask, and some of them don't know in detail, so there are some discrepancies." ”
Zheng Qingluan nodded, "Being able to recognize this is a harvest." ”
Guo Feiyan nodded, "I didn't expect this, it's still Merlin who is more powerful." ”
Merlin scratched his head embarrassedly, "At the beginning, I was a little unbearable. Later, when I thought about the innocent merchants who died under their swords, I was also relieved. ”
Zheng Qingluan smiled, "You guys are doing well. Liu Xinshou and Guo Feiyan cooperate tacitly, are steady, bold and careful. Jin Shun was alert and cleared the dark whistle, which was indispensable. Kang Lai has a global view, can quickly divert the mountain bandits, and has a flexible mind. And the three horses who were stunned did not plan to wait for the Tiger King Village to be cleared and then bring back the seized materials, which also contributed a lot. Not to mention Merlin, who is thoughtful and good at seizing the moment. You have exceeded my expectations. Excellent"
There was no mention of the hesitation of a few people to kill the enemy at the beginning
"Now, gather the people together and divide them into groups. Each person leads a group. Discuss how to quickly defeat the enemy. Our task is to rush to the guard house adjacent to Ping'an Prefecture for breakfast before dawn tomorrow. Zheng Qingluan finished the task and did not mix it again. It's up to them to consult.
Tiger King Village, more than 500 people. Occupy important places, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
This evening, as usual, was no different. A group of men, after dinner, gathered in the house, surrounded the fire pit, drank wine, gambled money, and bragged.
Boss Qi is a man in his forties, tall and mighty, he has practiced martial arts for two years, and he has a lot of strength. was originally a splash in Ping'an City, but because he looked at the wife of the official eunuch's family, he had bad intentions and was arrested by the government. He simply didn't do anything, sneaked into this petty official's house overnight, raped his wife and daughter, and killed 18 members of his family, and then fled to Huwang Mountain, where he fell into the grass and harmed one party.
At this time, he frowned and sat on the kang, drinking wine one by one.
"Big brother, what's wrong" The person who spoke was the second master, he had been to school for a few days, he knew a few words, he could be regarded as a cultural person in Huwangzhai and a think tank of Boss Qi. He poured a glass of wine for the boss and said with a smile, "If you don't know how to let the third child go down the mountain and find a few pointed heads to come back." ”
"If you are looking for a sharp point, you will also be looking for fruit. Boss Qi replied angrily.
Pointed heads and fruit food are all black words. The pointed head refers to the big girl, and the fruit index refers to the little daughter-in-law.
The second master smiled and hurriedly changed his words. He knew the problems of the big bosses, and he liked the women who had been married more than the big girls.
"But forget it, I always feel a little uneasy. "Boss Qi lived a life of adding blood to the knife edge, and it was normal to have animal-like intuition.
The second master naturally knows this truth, "What will happen is it related to the two cars of black stones a few days ago?"
"I don't know," Boss Qi took a sip of wine, "I've always wondered, this ice and snow, pulling two carts of big stones, how deep are the traces of the ruts, damn it, I thought I was catching a big fish." I don't understand who did such a two-hundred-and-five. I've been flustered all day long, and I don't know where to go if something happens."
"Could it be the government" The second boss blinked a pair of mouse eyes, pretending to be deep contemplation.
"Official Mansion" Boss Qi sneered, "If they have the courage, we can become bigger, and the prefect surnamed Zhang is a coward as long as I don't go to him for trouble, he will turn a blind eye, and he won't be blind to nothing." ”
"This is also true," the second master frowned, "the most threatening thing is the Xiao family's military guard near Ping'an Prefecture, where five thousand elite soldiers are stationed. If you really want to destroy us, then there is really no way to live. ”
"No," Boss Qi said categorically, "We have never provoked the Xiao family, and the two families have always been safe." What's more, the Xiao family army did not dare to send troops to other prefectures and cities at will. Isn't that a rebellion, of course, in order to avoid provoking people, people sneak over to kill us, I have always had a clear order, resolutely not to compete with the soldiers. This is clear to everyone. I still have this self-knowledge, people are not willing to deal with me, I really offended them, and I can do it to us in the dark. ”
After saying that, he seemed to think of something, and he suddenly put down the cup and glanced at the second master. Only then did this person react, "You're afraid that someone will take advantage of the night"
Boss Qi nodded, "Let everyone be vigilant, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years"
"Yes," the second master went out to spread the word, and then said with a smile, "There is no need to worry about the sky, the old beard has been personally guarding the post these days, and I haven't seen him deliver the message, so it should be fine." ”
Boss Qi relaxed a little this time, and he still believed in the old beard. A person with a lot of ability. He laughed at himself, "It's all those two cars of black stones that make a fuss, and the suspicion is getting suspicious." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps. Boss Qi turned over and jumped off the kang, and hurriedly asked, "What's the panic and what's wrong?"
Outside the door came a tall, thin man of thirty pairs, known as Skinny Seven. "Boss, there is a group of people coming down the mountain, there are forty or fifty. They tied the sentry's beard to their horses and brought them over. The leader is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old daughter-in-law, who is spicy, maybe an old beard, they want to find a fruit for the eldest brother, and take the initiative to provoke others. Looking at the little daughter-in-law's appearance, she also looked like she was mixed up on the road, saying that she was looking for the boss to discuss the law. Don't give an explanation, don't let people go. ”
He recounted this crackling. It took Boss Qi a long time to react before he understood, first, the number of the other party was small, only forty or fifty people. There are more than 500 strong men in their own house. Nothing to be afraid of. Second, the other party is mixed up on the road. It's very disciplined, and there are no people who killed them. Only people were tied. This leaves room for negotiation. It's best if you don't use a knife or a gun. Third, the other party is a woman. is still a young daughter-in-law, and she is quite spicy. It made him happy. There are not many women on the road, and such women are not useless men, but widows without men. This made him vaguely look forward to it.
"Call all the brothers, and we'll go to this heroine"
Guo Feiyan was dressed as a little daughter-in-law at this time, riding on a horse proudly. Behind him was a dead beard. For the sake of realism, not only did he tie his hands and feet with a rope, but he also blocked his mouth. Zheng Qingluan stood under the horse, looking like he was leading the horse and following him. She patted Guo Feiyan's leg to reassure her and not be nervous.
Guo Feiyan nodded, indicating that she understood.
After a while, the door of the cottage was opened, and a group of people walked out with torches. The leader is none other than Boss Qi. He laughed heroically, and he didn't know that he really thought that this was a good man in the green forest. "Which sister's discipline is not strict, and she collided with her sister, and she made amends to her sister here. ”
Guo Feiyan snorted coldly, "What do you accompany and what crime dare to beat your aunt and grandmother's idea, you eat the heart of a bear and a leopard, and you want to kidnap people" As she spoke, she raised her whip and whipped her fiercely at the beard tied to the horse behind her, and then a muffled snort sounded. It was Zheng Qingluan's dubbing to dispel the other party's suspicions.
"Sister, hurry up and stop your anger" Boss Qi looked at the woman opposite with a thin face, his heart was hot, and he said with a smile on his face, "They are not sensible, let the sister punish them." It's just, isn't it to put people down first?"
"Let go of the beauty of thinking" Guo Feiyan snorted, "Look at my widow's house, the first time I went out, I came to deceive, isn't it?"
Boss Qi smiled secretly in his heart, I haven't asked yet, you have left your own bottom. In the end, it is a woman's arrogant way, "Where do you dare to deceive"
Guo Feiyan intercepted the conversation, "Then you are worried that I will kill them" said and raised his whip and pointed at Boss Qi, "I thought you were a man who obeyed the rules, but I didn't expect that you were also a villain who lived the belly of a gentleman as a villain." They just hit," said Zheng Qingluan, "one person will take two strokes, and let their master listen to it." ”
Zheng Qingluan nodded, and pulled the corpses over one by one, with different humming sounds, even his own people who were close couldn't hear anything wrong.
Guo Feiyan stared at a pair of eyes and said with a smile, "Do you want to listen to it again?"
"If you don't listen to it, don't listen to my sister like this, let my brother and I have no place to be ashamed" Boss Qi walked towards Guo Feiyan and said with a smile, "How can I stop, sister, you speak." As long as my brother can do it, I don't shirk. ”
"Really" Guo Feiyan showed a coquettish demeanor at the right time.
Boss Qi swallowed his saliva and nodded, "It's naturally true."
Guo Feiyan looked at Boss Qi up and down, as if weighing whether this person was satisfactory, and then smiled, "Spend the night, okay?"
"Of course I can't ask for it," Boss Qi stepped closer.
Zheng Qingluan suddenly jumped off the horse and stabbed the neck of the landlord Qi Boss with a dagger.
The mountain bandits were shocked, "boss"
Boss Qi was also taken aback. Hearing Guo Feiyan giggle, "This little guts, what kind of hero is it" She put a dagger against Boss Qi's neck with one hand, but twisted the soft flesh on Boss Qi's waist with the other, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid, I said that I was beating my aunt and grandmother's crooked idea just now." If I don't give you something powerful, it's really a bully for a mother."
Boss Qi was twisted by Guo Feiyan before he knew that it was a joke. And they all burst into laughter. In their eyes, it was nothing more than two bandit leaders flirting and scolding.
"Grandma. I don't dare anymore. Quickly put the knife down" Boss Qi felt the coldness on his neck, where can he completely put his mind at ease.
Guo Feiyan giggled again, and pulled the dagger back and forth on Boss Qi's neck exaggeratedly, everyone's hearts tightened, and they heard people laughing, "I scared you if I didn't open the blade." ”
Boss Guo relieved his heart at this time, he was tall, he was strangled by Guo Feiyan, he could only bend his legs halfway, and the unique fragrance of the woman's body went straight to his nose, and he immediately became upset. He happily played with the little woman. "My sister hugged me like this, but she wanted to take the opportunity to get close to my brother. ”
"Phew" Guo Feiyan learned Mrs. Guo's usual treatment of Guo Zhishen, "An old man with no skin and no face." ”
The crowd laughed again. The years in the mountains are lonely, and such a scene is really happy to see the big guys.
Zheng Qingluan saw Liu Xinshou also coming out of the gate, and gestured, knowing that the people inside had been cleaned up. And the mountain bandits laughed and made a bunch, and no one noticed that the periphery was no longer their own people. Zheng Qingluan nodded at Guo Feiyan, Guo Feiyan immediately turned the dagger in his hand, and with a slight stroke, the blood column soared out, "It's really stupid to forget to tell you that the other side is open." ”
The laughter of the crowd stopped abruptly. The boy scouts have few opponents in hand-to-hand combat. The heroes in the army can also deal with three or five people, not to mention these rabble. But after a cup of tea, the battle is over.
Then the division of labor is clear, the corpses are handled, the traces are covered, the warehouses are searched, and the materials are transported, all in an orderly manner. A quarter of an hour later, the horse caravan with a large amount of supplies headed west.
No one noticed that Zheng Qingluan handed a letter to Tianyi, who was hidden in the shadows.
The sky was bright, and the sentry post of the East Guard of the Xiao Family Army found that a horse team was coming to the guard.
The general of this guard is named Mason, who is Merlin's own brother.
So Merlin was the first to go to the guard. He used to go to the guard house to play, and no one did not know him.
"Xiaolin, why are you here" Mason was very surprised when he saw the younger brother who was brought by the sentry, "Aren't you in the Shuai Mansion, why did you come here and sneak out." Seeing that there were some blood stains on his brother's body, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with this?"
"No" Merlin waved his hand, he still had the awe-inspiring murderous aura of the battle, "Big brother prepare, the master will be here soon." Let people prepare two hundred more meals. ”
"Ahh
"We cleared the Tiger King Village last night, and now the people are tired and need to rest. The master asked me to pass the word and let you prepare in advance. Merlin explained briefly.
"You," Mason was a little stunned.
"Two hundred scouts" Merlin's tone was full of pride, "There are more than 500 people in the Tiger King Village, and there are no chickens and dogs." ”
"My God" Mason was afraid for a while, "your courage is too big, if the master makes a mistake, how will you explain"
"Master" Merlin looked at his brother sympathetically, "Master's skills, it's good"
Mason couldn't explain to the bear child, so he hurriedly asked, "Are there any casualties?"
"This time, it was not because of the first time, the master sent a secret guard to follow and save people in time. However, there are more than a dozen injuries that are slightly serious, and the rest are mostly minor injuries and do not get in the way. Merlin was a little annoyed.
Mason breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately he got up and gave orders.
When Zheng Qingluan led people to the guard, it was already dawn. Mason stood outside to greet him, kneeling down from a distance and saluting.
"Get up, don't be so particular outside. Zheng Qingluan dismounted and said.
"The master has worked hard" Mason stood up and looked at the young master. There was some awe in my heart. He knew that Tiger King Village, if there were no 1,000 soldiers and horses, no one would dare to say that he would win. That place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but I didn't expect the little master to bring a group of little cubs whose hair had not yet grown up, and it was destroyed overnight. And there were zero casualties.
Zheng Qingluan smiled, "I'm a little tired." She called Liu Xinshou, "Settle everyone, if you need anything, look for Merlin, Merlin is familiar with this place." After eating, rest first, and let's set off early tomorrow morning. Let the wounded recuperate. Write down the names of the injured people and go back and practice again. As I said earlier, sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. ”
Liu Xinshou felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly put his left hand behind his back. It's not really going to throw them into some kind of devil's training camp
Zheng Qingluan saw Liu Xinshou's action of not admitting himself, and asked with a smile, "You are not injured, are you?"
"No" Liu Xinshou immediately replied loudly, "Really not"
"There are no three hundred taels of silver here," Zheng Qingluan raised his legs and walked, "You can wait for me." ”
Liu Xinshou immediately cried and lost his face, Guo Feiyan followed behind Zheng Qingluan with a smile, and turned around and grimaced from time to time.
One hundred and one hundred and two laughed secretly, why is this girl's heart so big, and she didn't even leave any sequelae for murder.
In the mansion of the prefect of Ping'an Prefecture, the frightened shouts of the prefect Zhang came early in the morning.
You say why
It turned out to be early in the morning, and there was a bloody dagger and a letter next to his pillow. This made him how could he not be afraid that this time it was a letter delivery, so next time he would not cut off his head directly if he was unhappy
After reading the content of the letter, Governor Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Xiao Jiajun's little son was looking for revenge on the mountain bandits, and he was afraid that he would climb and bite on the fold, so he wrote to explain. Or rather, threaten
He didn't dare to bite the Xiao family, even if he didn't have this letter, he didn't dare that there were 5,000 troops stationed in the Xiao family army on the edge of Ping'an Prefecture. He was crazy to climb people. However, the Xiao family is quite particular about doing things, and he knows what to do when he explains things clearly.
Subsequently, a clear fold played by the prefect of Ping'an Prefecture pushed Xiao Jiajun's boy scouts onto the stage of history. The brightest generals of the entire dynasty are all from this young army~ Search for basket color, you can read the following chapters in full
