Chapter 82: Beginning to take shape

After Du Chang was killed by Yuwen Chengdu, the surrounding Black Mountain thieves took the initiative to put down their weapons, and the addition of cavalry became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Looking at the Black Mountain thieves who were surrendering to Yuwen Chengdu and the others in an orderly manner, Liu Wei's face showed a look of deep worry.

"This is a team that has experienced battlefield fighting, they have a strong sense of fighting, if they are equipped with a set of fine armor, they can definitely become a hundred battles elite soldiers who can fight well." Liu Wei said.

Hearing this, Li Ru beside him nodded thoughtfully, and said: "In the face of the cavalry charge, they can take the initiative to put down the weapons in their hands, which is enough to show that they are a team that has seen the world, but the fly in the ointment is that their will to fight is still a little weak, if they can be tempered and controlled, they will definitely become a big help by your side." ”

Liu Wei nodded silently, and then expressed the worry in his heart, and said: "The Zhao clan of Dongwu City is just a broken house, but they can cultivate such a well-trained cavalry team, to be honest, after seeing their true combat power with my own eyes, I was very shocked. ”

Liu Wei said, squinted his eyes slightly, and silently glanced at Yang Xiu, who was engrossed in paying attention to the situation on the battlefield.

Li Ru glanced at Yang Xiu with Liu Wei's gaze, and then sighed silently, and said: "If you want to change, you need to put an end to the problem of the world clan raising private soldiers from the root, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, the top priority is to take advantage of the emptiness of the northern land, as soon as possible to occupy a piece of territory that belongs to you, and then according to your wishes, slowly plan it." ”

"This is the words of the old man who seeks the country."

After Liu Wei said, he rode his horse to the Black Mountain Army who were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, and said: "Those who rape ** women are out of the ranks, and those who burn and kill women and children are out of the ranks." ”

"Those who voluntarily confess to the crime are exempted from the death penalty." Liu Wei deliberately added another sentence.

The crowd remained silent, and no one dared to admit their crimes.

Liu Wei looked sideways at Lei Wanchun on the side and said, "Bring all Li Shu over and let them identify the crimes committed by the thieves one by one." ”

"No."

Lei Wanchun left in response.

After a long time.

Dozens of people who were lucky enough to survive, under the guidance of Lei Wanchun, came to meet Liu Wei.

Looking at the poor people who were grateful to him, Liu Wei felt pity for him, but at the same time, he did not forget to deliberately emphasize: "Just identify the adulterer and the person who burned and killed the woman and the child in person." ”

Seeing that someone was finally willing to support themselves, the people were indignant and pointed the finger at the Black Mountain thieves who bowed their heads and were silent.

In less than half an hour, more than 20 Black Mountain thieves were identified.

Liu Wei was not polite to them, and immediately ordered Lei Wanchun to correct them one by one.

Then, Liu Wei asked the Montenegrin thieves to report each other, and the only crimes reported were rape and burning of women and children.

After a long time.

More than 100 Montenegrin thieves were identified by their companions, and they were finally sentenced by Lei Wanchunming after a hundred words without a word.

Liu Wei ordered the Montenegrin army to return all the looted property to the people, and then immediately reorganized them, and then divided the remaining 800 or so Montenegrin troops into four teams, with Zhang Xun, Chai Shao, Nan Jiyun, and Lei Wanchun respectively commanding 200 people.

Fifty cavalrymen were assigned to Yuwen Chengdu.

At this very moment.

Yang Xiu, who was temporarily sent to register the 800 Montenegrin Army, came over with a smile.

Seeing this, Liu Wei couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Dezu's smile must have encountered something good." ”

When Yang Xiu heard this, he gave Liu Wei a thumbs up with a smile and said, "I really can't escape your eyes for anything." ”

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time, if you have something to say, don't sell it." Liu Wei urged with a smile.

When Yang Xiu heard this, he hurriedly looked straight and said: "Xiu just took out a few words from the mouths of several Montenegrin bandits, they are still honest people, and truthfully confessed the hiding place of the Montenegrin army, and bluntly said that there are still more than a thousand Montenegrin thieves in the village, as well as thousands of old and weak women and children, Xiu thought that you should be very interested in this matter." ”

When Li Ru heard this, he frowned and said, "It is rumored that the Black Mountain Army has a million people, how can there be only a few thousand people?" ”

When Yang Xiu heard this, he hurriedly explained: "The Montenegrin thieves gathered millions of people, most of them were old and weak women and children, and they hid in the mountains all the year round, and the Montenegrin army had many forces, nominally controlled by Zhang Yan, but in fact they were not subordinate to each other. ”

"And the Black Mountain bandits composed of thousands of people mentioned in Xiu's mouth are actually only a small force in the Black Mountain Army."

"I see."

Liu nodded thoughtfully, then nodded at Yang Xiu in front of him with a smile, and said, "After successfully absorbing this group of thieves, I will definitely be rewarded." ”

"Good."

Yang Xiu smiled, immediately turned over and got on the horse, and escorted hundreds of Black Mountain thieves with Liu Wei and his party to secretly touch their lair.

Liu Wei and the others deliberately changed into the clothes of the Montenegrin thieves, and then under the guidance of several Montenegrin thieves, they went to the village.

When Liu Wei and his entourage pulled dozens of carts full of goods to the front of the village, the Montenegrin army who was responsible for staying in the village saw that they had gained a lot, so they opened the gate of the village and prepared to celebrate in a big way.

Most of these dozens of carts full of goods are dowries given by Zhen, which are nominally dowries, but in fact, to put it bluntly, they are a disguised investment.

Seeing that the gate of the village was wide open, Yuwen Chengdu immediately led his cavalry to drive straight in, and Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun also followed, and the horses rushed to the village.

Chai Shao, Zhang Xun and others were responsible for accompanying Liu Wei and controlling the 800 Black Mountain thieves who had just surrendered outside.

The battle went very smoothly, and Liu Wei and others took the Montenegrin army in the stockade by surprise with their intentions or unintentionalities.

Yuwen Chengdu repeated his old tricks, and killed the thief leader Sun Qing with a horse.

And Nan Jiyun, who followed closely, also opened his bow and shot the thief leader Wang Dang, who was about to run away on horseback.

After Sun Qing and Wang Dang were conferred the head, the Montenegrin army in the village took the initiative to put down the weapons in their hands and chose to kneel to Liu Wei and his party to ask for surrender.

This time, Liu Wei only killed more than a dozen people who committed the most heinous crimes, and without the people coming forward to identify the criminals, Liu Wei also maintained a passable attitude towards this Black Mountain Army force.

There is no need to kill them all if you turn a blind eye, after all, you have to count on them to help you achieve something great in the future.

This attack on the village has gained a lot, Liu Wei and others have seized tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass in this village, and the rest of the goods are countless, with food, Liu Bian's heart finally has some confidence.

Looking at the team of nearly 2,000 people in front of him, Liu Wei's heart suddenly swelled with pride, and he said in his heart: "Now that my command has begun to take shape, with men and horses, grain and grass, will the world be far away?" ”
