Chapter 47 The use of the people as a meat shield

At ten o'clock in the evening, Li Yunqing finally saw Yang Bin's figure. At this moment, Yang Bin looked very embarrassed, his face was dirty, and the clothes on his body were also torn in many places. Seeing this scene, Zhiyun's brows couldn't help frowning, he naturally knew very well what kind of skill Yang Bin was, if not, Li Hongyuan would not have left such a military general by his side!

Without waiting for Li Yunqing to ask, Yang Bin said in a deep voice: "That girl is a shrew!" After the fight, he actually tore and bit me like a dog, and the minister was afraid that the emperor's plan would be ruined, so he came back. If not, the minister will raze her cottage to the ground! ”

Li Yunqing had never seen Yang Bin embarrassed, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, don't mind, how many bandits are there on this Straw Hat Mountain?" ”

Hearing this, Yang Bin hurriedly said: "The bandits on this mountain must also have seven or eight no, but they all seem to be wine bags and rice bags, and they have no martial arts foundation at all!" If you want martial arts, only that Helian Yue still knows a little martial arts. The first two official encirclements and suppressions failed, and the ministers thought that it was mostly because they had laid a lot of traps on the mountain, just like the general situation when they dealt with Zhao Hong! ”

Li Yunqing shook his head when he heard this: "This Straw Hat Mountain is incomparable with Zhao Hong in the past, I am not worried about whether I can exterminate the bandits, what I am worried about is who these bandits are?" Can you see Liurao in that cottage? ”

Yang Bin shook his head and said, "The minister didn't see Liurao this time, will you have no liurao in the cottage at all?" Could it be that this Straw Hat Mountain is just an ordinary bandit, and there are no people making trouble at all? ”

"Regardless of whether there are rogue people making trouble, since they are bandits, they must be exterminated!" Li Yunqing said lightly: "You go to see the local county order, and you will help the local area to exterminate this gang of bandits as the commander of Jin Wuwei!" If those officials in the yamen fail, you will mobilize the local army to do things! Remember, as long as it is a bandit, no matter when and where, it must be eliminated quickly! ”

At first, the so-called bandits were actually stragglers left over from various parts of the previous dynasty, and they had nothing to do. Later, it was some lazy people who came together and became real bandits. In any case, the founding of the Great Cadre has been constantly suppressing bandits, and this has become a problem that almost every new dynasty needs to face. Now that Zhao Hong and his ilk have been eliminated, in Li Yunqing's opinion, there are not many real bandits left.

Li Yunqing originally thought that this time the bandits would not cost much, but who knew that the group waited at the inn for two days, but things developed in an unexpected direction. In order to survive, Helian Yue and other bandits actually gathered nearly a thousand villagers to make meat shields on the mountain to prevent Yang Bin and others from attacking Straw Hat Mountain!

Helian Yue was squatting in front of a girl, touching her face and saying softly: "Sister, don't be afraid, with my sister here, those officers and soldiers under the mountain can't hurt you, as long as we all gather together, those officers and soldiers won't dare to really fight up the mountain." When they're all gone, you'll all be home! ”

The rogue Miki next to him had a look of disdain on his face, and his eyes were no different from looking at Helian Yue as if he were looking at an idiot, but he persuaded with a smile: "Don't worry, Miss Helian, so many villagers are on the mountain, and those officers and soldiers must not dare to attack the mountain in a big way." If they think that the confrontation will be prolonged, they will retreat themselves. ”

Helian Yuexiu frowned slightly, pulled the stream aside and whispered, "Isn't it tantamount to kidnapping the villagers to blackmail the local government by doing this?" These villagers are innocent, isn't it cruel to do so? ”

Hearing this, Miki had a fierce light flashing in the depths of his eyes, but he was quickly covered up by it. I only heard him sigh and said: "Miss Helian is good, it is indeed inappropriate to use the people as shields. But the girl thought that many of these people could not even eat enough at the bottom of the mountain, and now that they have gone up the mountain, they will at least have enough to eat! As the saying goes, people live for a lifetime, aren't they all for this mouth? Besides, we didn't hurt them by letting them go up the mountain, just let those officers and soldiers know that we have someone on our hands, girl, rest assured, what we are doing now is the best choice for ourselves and the people! ”

Miki is worthy of being the person in charge of these people, and in just a few words, Helian Yue's group was turned around, and most of the doubts in his heart were eliminated. I saw him pat Miki on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's still easy to use your head, go out with me and have a look!" ”

At this moment, the big cadre army and the bandits on Straw Hat Mountain were facing each other halfway up the mountain, and in front of the bandits were squatting two rows of helpless people. These people looked quite leisurely, and many of them were still nibbling on white-flour steamed buns in their hands, and there was not the slightest fear on their faces. The officers and men on the other side were very annoyed by such a scene, and they were unable to do anything for a while.

The most central position of the officers and soldiers, in the makeshift command room. Xixia County Commander Zhu You looked at the brocade robe man beside him with a smile, this man suddenly appeared at noon yesterday and ordered himself to come to suppress the bandits, he naturally can't listen to the mercy of others, where did he know that he was just going to be tortured, and the person who came took out a golden waist card, and when he saw this waist card, he had to obediently come to suppress the bandits.

Recalling everything that happened yesterday, Zhu Youde pondered for a moment, and boldly said to Yang Bin, who was dressed in a blue python robe: "My lord, what do you think should be done now?" They shamelessly hold the people hostage, and our army is not easy to attack the people, so it is not a way to go on in such a stalemate! ”

Yang Bin frowned, he also knew that Zhu Youde's words were reasonable, and such a stalemate would be greatly detrimental to his own momentum. The dignified army was actually pinned down by a gang of bandits, and it was a shame to go out! But seeing Yang Bin hammer the table, he stood up violently and shouted outside: "Listen to the people on the mountain, if you want to be safe and sound, go down the mountain and go home quickly, and in three hours, all the living creatures on the mountain will be treated as bandits!" ”

Those people who were gnawing on steamed buns were completely dumbfounded when they heard this, and they were just here to sit down and eat with a white head, how could they be regarded as bandits when they were only halfway through eating? Naturally, these people didn't do it, and they didn't know which one yelled: "I don't want to be a bandit!" "All the people began to riot, and the bandits on Straw Hat Mountain soon couldn't control these people, and more than a dozen people actually took advantage of the chaos to run to the side of the big cadre army!

Yoshishima, who was in charge of guarding these people, was furious when he saw this, and he drew the long knife at his waist and slashed at a citizen who wanted to escape, and for a while blood splashed Yoshishima's face. I only heard Yoshishima yelling: "If anyone dares to escape, there is only one way to die!" Dead!! "At this moment, Yoshishima looks extremely terrifying, carrying a long knife and his face is covered with blood!

Yang Bin finally saw Yoshishima who had been hiding behind the crowd at this moment, and his eyes couldn't help flashing, and he said to himself: "Liuren? Fuck it, there are really people who are getting in the way! ”

In a fit of rage, Yang Bin was about to give the order to attack the mountain, but Zhu Youde grabbed his arm. But I heard Zhu Youde say anxiously: "My lord! You are angry, you see that the bandits have begun to kill people, we can't attack the mountain at this time! Otherwise, the thousands of people on this mountain don't know how many will die in the hands of these homespun hands, if they ignore the life and death of the people, I am afraid that it will hurt the emperor's holy virtue! ”

Hearing the words "hurt and skilled", Yang Bin finally endured the anger in his heart. After pondering for a moment, he shouted: "Let people take a detour, no matter how far away, and see if they can find other roads up the mountain, go quickly!" ”

Helian Yue was trembling all over at the moment, he had just come to the front and saw the scene of Yoshidao wielding a knife to slaughter the people, he turned his head to look at Miki beside him, but saw Miki sneering and said: "Sister Helian, forgive me, this is also a matter of no choice, many times the killing is out of a helpless choice!" ”
