Chapter 377: Song Jiang is dead
I already knew that Jia Lian was on the shore, who dared to let go of the cold gun, the official ship docked, and Lin Chong personally brought someone down to respond.
Li Ying, Dong Ping, Li Kui, Mu Hong, and Mu Chun were chased and scattered.
Seeing that Lin Chong was chasing and killing, Jia Lian, who looked like a mad demon, stopped his sword for a while, looked in all directions, and saw that from the direction of Li Yinggzhuang, there were two or three hundred officers and soldiers coming.
This is the entourage of soldiers and horses that had been left at the post house.
"-Second Master!"
The person at the head was Zhao Tiandong, and at this time, with a scorched black face, crying father and calling his mother came forward.
Jia Lian regained a little clarity and said, "Brother Dong is still alive, but it's useless."
Zhao Tiandong cried: "I complain that the villain hasn't grown up over the years, and it's too late to find someone, so I hurt the second master here."
After crying, Zhao Tiandong reacted, and hurriedly shouted to the ship to find a military doctor.
Although Jia Lian's scars on his body were terrifying, he was unwilling, and he was reluctant to leave for a while, so he only stopped here to see the two boats fighting in the river.
Before long, Li Yingdong and Ping had already been picked up by thieves and boarded the ship.
Lin Chong didn't get anything, so he had to turn around and ask for instructions: "Master Yu, Song *** should be on that ship, and the lowly party sent people from the dry road to inform the local officials and soldiers to attack back and forth, just entangle these ships first, and the Haikou will definitely be pacified!"
Jia Lian inspected the southeast place, and there was inevitably a delay in the military situation on the front line, and he wondered how many thieves came here, but when he heard the news of Lin Chong, he was slightly satisfied.
Left and right repeatedly asked to go to the doctor and bandage, Jia Lian only got on the boat, and at the same time instructed Lin Chong, "You come and speak carefully. Spread my words, just take the position of the local naval division general and regimental trainer to come over, and wait for this Taishi to personally ask these birds!"
In the waters of the Qiantang River, dozens of thief ships actually rowed over to fight, how did the generals guarding the water mouth escape?
Lin Chong was shocked when he heard this, and he was busy answering the call and asking someone to pass the word again.
The sound of killing outside the ship was moving, and in the cabin, Jia Lian's knife was smedicated and bandaged, and it was inevitable that a belated itch swept through his body, and he closed his eyes and recuperated for the time being.
Lin Chong arranged for the army to come back, hesitated again and again on the side, and still pleaded guiltily: "There is one thing that has been deceived by the Taishi for a long time."
Jia Lian didn't open his eyes, just lay down and said, "You say!"
Lin Chong said: "When the deceased old marquis of my family was an official in Yangzhou, he had a relationship with Song Jiang, and he was deceived into advocating Zhao'an. Over the years, there have been news exchanges, and no one else knows about it, so they just pass it on to me. As soon as he thought that it was difficult to suppress pirates, and secondly, he was also ordered by the old marquis before his death, so he wanted to try his best to mediate the matter of the imperial court recruiting Song Jiang."
The old marquis is Lin Ruhai, the aunt of Jiamen, who passed away in the imperial history platform, and Jia Lian helped to ask for a marquis in the imperial court.
Before his death, his aunt and nephew were originally intimate, but the matter of communicating with Song Jiang in private was really hidden.
Fortunately, Jia Lian had already felt that there was something wrong with Lin Chong, and he heard the news that he reported that Song Jiang had rebelled against and occupied Dayuan Island that day, which was faster than the officers and soldiers who were in an expedited manner for 800 miles, and it turned out that it was Lin Ruhai above.
Lin Chong observed his words, but he didn't see Jia Lian's reaction too much, so he had to continue.
「… Who would have thought that this Song Jiang would be bold enough to occupy Dayuan Island in the first place, intending to murder Taishi in the back. The humble deduced this intention, fearing that something would happen, so he rushed to the aid of the starry night, not wanting to let them endanger the Grand Master's command, which is really a crime that deserves death."
Lin Chong said that the more panicked he became, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and asked for guilt.
After all, this is a prerequisite for fornication with foreign thieves.
Back then, the matter of Taihu Lake thieves recruiting an was a mess, and it was understandable that the ancestor Lin Ruhai would be cautious, and when it reached him, he couldn't open his mouth to report to the court.
Who knew that Song Jiang was a good pirate giant who didn't do it, and now he made such a big incident, and it also affected him.
"Get up."
"After Song Jiang and his gang are destroyed, what my aunt left behind for you is not a trouble, but it is meritorious."
Jia Lian didn't know what Lin Chong was thinking, but he just felt that after all, they were two in-laws, and this person was pulled up by him
, most likely it won't hurt him.
What's more, this one has rushed from Hangzhou to rescue.
Jia Lian was helped up by Zhao Tiandong, and when he saw that Lin Chong still couldn't afford to hesitate, and was about to speak, he suddenly heard the sound of shouting on the deck outside.
"The thieves are raising the flag and are leaving!"
Hearing this, Jia Lian Lin Chong and the others hurriedly walked out of the cabin and arrived at the front rudder.
"Song *** Party is afraid that he also knows that this is not a place to stay for a long time."
Lin Chong looked around for a while, looked back, and said, "The thief got out too quickly, I don't know if the previous news was conveyed, and the sailors who stayed behind in the place could feel that they were intercepting the way to retreat."
Jia Lian immediately said hatefully: "Don't look forward to all that, give orders to go down and chase after you!"
Lin Chong responded and went down to make arrangements.
It was a taboo for soldiers to chase after the poor, but fortunately, Song Jiang and his gang also came deep alone, and they didn't have the heart to leave any ambush, so they only cared about fleeing at this time.
The thief ship was in front, and the official ship was behind, swimming down, fighting all the way, and rushing towards the direction of the East China Sea.
The official ship chased after him, but unfortunately they were all swimming with the wind, and they really couldn't bite it.
The sailors who stayed behind in the place were also missing for a long time, and they don't know where they went.
I don't know how long it took to chase and kill, but noon had passed, and the sun was setting in the west.
The ships under the command of Song Jiang in front of him were about to arrive at the mouth of the sea, and in an instant, there was a volley of artillery fire, which directly frightened the merchant ships coming and going to avoid and line up their way out.
Seeing that Song Jiang and the others were about to flee like this, there were more than a dozen boats coming from the oblique stab, the small ones were three or five zhang long, and the large ones were six or seven zhang long, and there were no artillery on them, all of them ran straight into the bird boats that were about to escape to the sea.
Seeing that the entrance to the sea was in front of them, the ships of the two sides were blocked to death, and they could not be untied for a while and a half, and they could not enter an inch again.
"It's Second Master Xiaoyun! So it's here?!"
Zhao Tiandong looked around with a clairvoyant mirror on the rear deck, shouting happily.
The ships that were not blocked behind the pirates were about to turn, but they were slammed into by the officers who came one after another, throwing their hooks and locks, lest they escape.
"The Master has an order! Kill one! 100 taels of silver! Grab a boat! Promoted to the third level!"
The imperial court sailors are like rainbows, and they are all vying for the lead.
Later, Zhao Tiandong put on a cloak for Jia Lian and said, "Second master, these thieves deserve to die, let's retreat a little, so as not to be hurt by our own family."
"Get out of the way!"
Jia Lian pulled out the waist knife of the guard on the side with his backhand, ripped off his cloak with one hand, kicked Zhao Tiandong with one foot, and rushed towards the opposite ship to kill.
In that place, Li Ying, Li Kui, Dong Ping, Mu Hong, and Mu Chun were all there, all of them facing the battle with injuries.
"Come on!!"
…………
Dusk falls, the glow is thousands of miles, and the waves enter the sea.
Jia Lian had already cut down the brothers Mu Hong and Mu Chun, and Li Ying and the others were put into cold guns and fell to the ground one by one and were trapped.
Suddenly, someone sent a message, saying, "Song Jiang, the leader of the thieves, has shown his face and is abandoning the ship and fleeing to the shore."
Jia Lian slashed Mu Hong and Mu Chun with his hands, and he was already depressed, so he naturally didn't miss the news at this time, and he was about to leave.
Although the wounds on the bound Li Kui's body turned outward and the blood flowed profusely, he was still not convinced, and shouted angrily, "Don't go, Master Bird! I was kind enough to ask you to speak, but you killed my brother instead, and now you want to embarrass my brother, what is the reason? If you have the ability, cut me down first!"
Jia Lian paused for a moment, but he laughed angrily when he heard it.
"Kill my relatives and domestic servants first, it turns out that you are still kind? A thief is indeed a thief!"
Jia Lian drank again: "Quickly fulfill the meaning of this black guy, quickly chop it into meat puree and feed it to the fish!"
The red-eyed officers and soldiers on the side responded in unison, and stepped forward with their knives, but they didn't see Li Kui's painful voice, only blood and bones flying.
Jia Lian looked at the rest of Li Yingdong and the others again, but saw that these two people were all bowing their heads and couldn't look directly.
Jia Lian snorted coldly and ordered the ship to dock to pursue the absconding thief.
Although Song Jiang fled, he couldn't escape far, and the local water was all chao
Under the rule of Ting, there were already local officers guarding the shore with weapons, and when they saw that Song Jiang did not sign up to go ashore, they just swarmed up and surrounded the people.
When Jia Lian came, he was watching Song Jiang lead people to advance and retreat in the mud, so he was not embarrassed.
Song Jiang was below, and when he saw the officials and soldiers separated, Jia Lian, who revealed his amazing might, already recognized the person coming from the dry shore, and immediately arched his hand and said, "Master Jia."
Jia Lian didn't have the heart to talk about the old love that he didn't have, so he only forced the fire in his heart and said loudly: "Once I surrendered, now this Taishi has come over in person and allowed you to be an official, whether you surrender or not!"
Although he couldn't wait to shoot these thieves in front of him one by one, but after a long war, the treasury was empty, and there were still many old troops of Song Jiang overseas, Jia Lian came out to surrender.
Song Jiang shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Lucky little official, I have long wanted to submit to the imperial court. It's just that I live overseas all the year round, so I can't help but see more. The Celestial Empire is rich and fruitful, and the ministers are more conservative and enterprising, and they don't know the dangers and benefits of the sea, so Song Jiang is only able to manage it on his behalf, which is actually not at fault."
As he spoke, he ordered the sword to cross his neck.
"Song Jiang doesn't want to be recruited today!"
Song Jiang said loudly: "Master Wangtai only asks me to blame me, after my death, overseas Qianxiang countries and other places should be able to pass on the edict and peace, which is really fortunate!"
When your brothers die in battle, you yourself are in a desperate situation, and everything that goes before is dissipated, and it is inevitable that people will be sad in their hearts.
The people on the left and right couldn't stop it, and Song Jiang ordered the sword trick to be sideways, and then his body fell on his back and fell into the mud.
The remnants of the Song *** party screamed and wailed, followed by a few people who killed themselves and left.
"Master..."
Lin Chong's heart was shaken, and he hurriedly asked Jia Lian for his life to recruit the rest of the people.
In the middle of the sound, Jia Lian nodded slowly, and asked again, "Why is there a person named Liu Tang inside?"
Lin Chong said, "That man died a few days ago in the south against the heavenly soldiers."
was busy catching people, and seeing that Jia Lian had no other orders, Lin Chong hurriedly led people into the quagmire.
Not long after, Song Jiang's body was carried in front of him.
Only then did Jia Lian truly perceive that the great thief who had been rampant for nearly 20 years died here.
At this time, it is the time to retreat, with the twilight of the sunset, the tide gradually disappears with the waves.
The mud near the shore is revealed, and as the waves retreat, a strange pattern is gradually revealed, which is connected like the leaves and branches of a tree, which is a beautiful scenery.
Jia Lian grew up in the capital, how could he have seen such a scene, and it took a long time to remember that Song Jiang's body was still on the side.
"You don't have to cut off your head, but you can put up a monument on the spot and bury it, and spread the news overseas, and recruit his people."
The two soldiers carried Song Jiang's body down in response.
On the shore, Jia Yunzhengxing, who had made great achievements, hurriedly came over, and when he saw Song Jiang's body being carried away and buried, he couldn't help but take a few looks, and then slowed down his pace to see Jia Lian.
"Grandpa Guo, this scene is called the Tree of the Tides. Whenever the dynasty retreats, the water streaks spread out of the canopy of the tree in all directions, and then turn into the body of the tree, and there is always a place to return, just like the water of the four directions, which will eventually pour into the sea."
"Not bad."
Jia Lian bowed slightly.
