Chapter 474: Persuasion and Robbery

On the mountain road, Wu Gen led the men and horses to move forward cautiously. From time to time, someone shoots the ground in front of him with a sky-shaking bow, destroying the horse thief's traps, crossbows, etc.

If it is about the organ, Wu Gen is a master of this way, how can he let his family fall into these inferior methods. Along the way, there were no horse thieves to stop them, and not even a single arrow was fired, which was a bit too smooth.

Except for the occasional order, except for the sound of footsteps and the sound of horses sneezing, there was not a trace of noise in the procession, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense and dull.

Some of the newly recruited soldiers looked at the young man with strange knives in front of him from time to time, and listened carefully to the orders of their captain.

As for the old pawns brought by Wu Gen from Zuoheng Road, they have long been accustomed to it. This young owner of the village has no shape on weekdays, and sometimes some old soldiers scold him twice, but he only scolds back three sentences, but he never cares about it afterwards.

Moreover, any seizures in the army were immediately below, and he took almost nothing except wine.

But on the battlefield, Wu Gen seemed to be a different person, ruthless, decisive, and hated people who ran away in battle, and never dealt with deserters.

Under the urging of the old soldiers, the dreadnoughts walked up in an orderly manner, and so many people walked on the winding mountain road, and there was no chaos.

Ji Yan was sandwiched in the middle of the team, protected on all sides, and the person who lacked erection also stood beside him.

For a long time, she always thought that Wu Gen was able to come all the way from other provinces to this place, but she was just lucky.

can see those sharp and strange bows and arrows, the big birds flying and circling in the sky, and the ten people who were killed without blinking their eyes, and finally have a new understanding of Wu Gan.

This is a complex person, black, scoundrel, righteous, fierce, all kinds of personalities in one, if it is completely in accordance with the requirements of a general in the military book, Wu Gan may have a lot of problems.

But he was able to gather a large number of people around him, and these people were all loyal to him. Ji Yan has to admit that in fact, this person who is full of problems has a more charm to win people.

When the water is clear, there are no fish, and Wu Gen is like a pool of semi-turbid and muddy water. It is precisely because he has all kinds of shortcomings, but he is a real person, that he will not make all kinds of people feel intimidated, but more willing to approach.

After all, in this world, everyone is not perfect, and the kind of moral gentleman who calls himself white jade and flawless will make people stay away.

The team walked to the front of the main village, and Wu Yan nodded. Needless to say, it seems that these horse thieves really want to operate here for a long time.

Although the walled wall is more than four zhang high, although it is made of stone on the mountain, it looks very strong, and there is only one gate, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.

On the city wall, all kinds of bows and crossbows are lined up, and there is a row of tall warriors on the wall, and from time to time there are figures running over the wall.

"Which master of the Ji family are you, why did you attack my Cuisong Mountain for no reason." A large, one-eyed man with a shield in his hand asked, cautiously probing over the city wall.

Wu Yan turned his head to glance at Ji Yan, and seeing that she didn't mean to come forward to talk, he motioned to Xue Xin to hurry up and prepare for the siege, and walked forward on his horse.

Tilting his head to look at the other party, Wu Yan pointed behind him with his thumb, and asked with a smile,

"On the other side, you can see clearly, this is the young master of the Ji family, who are you, don't hurry down to the city to kneel and greet you." The man was stunned, but did not answer, but shrank behind the wall, apparently looking for someone to discuss.

After a stick of incense, when Wu Qian gradually lost patience, the man appeared on the wall again, and there were two people standing beside him, one was bald, and the other was covered with loose hair, and he looked very feminine.

"Young master, I am a car rush." The one-eyed man pointed to the bald head beside him,

"His name is Niu Ye, and the leader next to him is called Bu Kai. Although our three brothers have formed a camp here, they have never harassed the Ji family, and I don't know why the army is here today. Wu Yan waved his hand, and suddenly became angry,

"Knowing that the young master is here, why don't you go out of the village and kneel down to greet you, you even dare to ask questions. I am Wu Gan, a thousand households of the Northern Army, and I am ordered to exterminate the traitors, if you are still interested, hurry down to the city, otherwise, the big saber will rise, and there will be no reason to live. The sound was very loud, and it reverberated back and forth in the mountains, and suddenly there was a buzz above the city.

Truth be told, many of these horse thieves were poor people, and they just followed these three thieves to make a living.

As for wanting to go against the Ji family, these people never thought about it at all, and when they saw the young master of the Ji family here today, they couldn't help but be a little shaken in their hearts.

The one-eyed man glanced at the other bandit leaders, and Fang said loudly: "My lord, this is a bit overbearing, although we are all people under the rule of the Ji family, if we don't pull up such a big team, will the dignified young master come to see us." To be honest, we shepherds also have our own rules, as long as we are strong, we can be canonized as a family. I have nearly 10,000 horses in Cuisong Mountain, which is not better than any thousand families. As long as the Ji family is willing to seal the brothers as officials, and then give them a piece of land, I promise to lead people to surrender immediately. Otherwise, I really think that these soldiers and horses in Cuisong Mountain are vegetarians. I see that you are only 2,000 men, and you don't know who will lose and who will win when you really fight. Wu Yan snorted and pointed to the city,

"Scared to death, I really think that you, cats and dogs, can stop the mighty of the army." He yawned lazily and said boredly, "As long as you surrender, I can promise to spare the lives of the three of you." ”

"What about our men, what about the territory." The one-eyed man asked.

"The subordinates will be reorganized, as for the territory, I will serve in the army for a few years first, and I will not reward you with hundreds of acres of land at that time." Wu Yan gradually became a little impatient, he was not happy if he didn't have wine on his body, so he hurried to finish the battle and took the opportunity to reward himself with hundreds of jars of wine.

"Wu Qianhu, are you joking?" Che Tu laughed angrily, pointed at Wu Gan and said angrily: "I divided my men and horses, and I want us to sell our lives, and in the end, I don't know what the result is, is this a surrender, this is to let our brother send his head to your knife." ”

"Will it not fall, on this condition. I'll give you a moment to think about it, and when the hour comes, the army will attack the city, and then you won't even die. Wu Gan took a step back, and five giant crossbows were lifted up.

Due to the cramped space in front of the wall, there is really no way to expand too much.

"Fight, fight, don't think grandpa is afraid of you, a bunch of embroidered pillows and rotten straw." Before Che Tu could speak, the bald cow next to him couldn't help it, pointing at Wu Gen and scolding,

"Let me tell you, grandpa fought with a knife and a gun, and his subordinates don't know how many lives he has seen, and he will be afraid that a few of you will hide in the city and only play with women, drink and drink silly straw bales." As soon as these words came out, Che Tu hurriedly pulled Niu Ye off the wall, and smiled at Wu Gan: "My second brother is a rough man, forgive me from thousands of households, and we will discuss it again." With that, the three of them hid behind the wall again.

Seeing that the three of them disappeared, Wu Qian summoned Xue Xin over,

"How are the siege preparations going?" Xue Xin wiped a handful of sweat,

"The master of the village, the people have almost been reorganized, and all the people who can shoot the heaven-shaking bow have been put in front, and the first dead soldiers have also been assembled. But. As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Ji Yan.

"But nothing." Wu Yan was stunned.

"Zu Qianhu has returned." Xue Xin said in a low voice.

"Isn't he out hunting a horse thief outside, how did he run back?" Wu Yan was shocked, except for a small number of people and horses who took care of the small village, he had already pulled all the people and horses to the front of the main village, if the horse thieves outside killed back, blocked their retreat, and then attacked the main village on both sides, thousands of people crowded in this narrow valley, how many people died by trampling on horses.

"He said that he would protect the safety of the three young masters." Xue Xin said cautiously.

Before he could say this, he saw a few people on ......the mountain road crowd away the soldiers along the road, beat their horses and ran up.

"Young master, why did you run so close to the enemy, your subordinates were uneasy, so they came to protect you closely." Zu Yuantong jumped off the horse and fell to one knee with a plop.

Ji Yan glanced at Wu Gan, who had an ugly face, but she was helpless, so she had to say softly: "Zu Qianhu, please get up, you have arrived here, and the matter of blocking the enemy outside the mountain has been arranged." Zu Yuantong stood up and did not answer directly, but took a delicate wooden box from the saddle and came down,

"Young master, this is a wild fruit picked by his subordinates, although it is not a rare thing, but it is excellent for quenching thirst." After Ji Yan took it, Fang spoke again: "A hundred households have been arranged outside the mountain to patrol with more than 200 people, and it is enough to deal with the scattered horse thieves, but here, there are many thieves, and they must be protected." ”

"Okay, you just stay by my side, don't walk around, and see how Wu Qianhu breaks the enemy." Ji Yan couldn't chill the hearts of his subordinates, but she was afraid that Zu Yuan would command her subordinates in chaos and cause chaos to Wu Gan, so she had to tie him to her side.

Wu Yan sighed, and a faint feeling of uneasiness rose in his heart. The reason why Zu Yuantong was left outside at the beginning was because he was afraid that he would cause chaos from it, after all, according to the appointment of the Ji family, he was at the same level as himself, and half of the people were other people's subordinates.

The army is most afraid of this kind of multi-headed command, in case Zu Yuantong points fingers, he really doesn't have a good way, so he can't tie him up.

This time, I am afraid that there is another meaning that he wants to fight for merit. Xiaozhai has been defeated, and after the war, he can't even get soup after the war, so he rushed here in the name of protecting the young master.

No, you have to quickly lay down the main village, so as not to have many dreams at night and regenerate. Wu Yan was about to rush forward, but he saw Suo Ji in the air shaking a red flag vigorously.

According to the agreement, this is a sign that the enemy is gathering troops and horses. After discussing with Xue Xin and Shui Congyue in a low voice, Wu Jian shouted at the main village: "The time has come, if you don't surrender, attack the city immediately." Che Tu's head reappeared on the wall, and said pitifully: "My lord, the time for this moment has not yet come, the matter involves nearly 10,000 horses, and the brothers can discuss it carefully." ”

"Okay, I'll give you twenty breaths of time to think about it, and when you see the sun rise, you can afford to tan my young master." Wu Yan glanced at Zu Yuantong proudly, the other party can please Ji Yan like this, he can't fall behind.

Ji Yan's face on the side changed, she glared at Wu Yan viciously, and casually stuffed the wooden box that had eaten a few fruits to Zu Yuantong beside her, pouting angrily and looking ahead, there was still a little red juice of the fruit at the corner of her mouth.

"Twenty breaths is too short, give us more time to think about it." The car suddenly rushed at Wu Gan and gave his hand again and again.

"I don't care, I'm going to start counting." Wu Yan stalked his neck, and his hand slashed down,

"One, release the arrows." With an order, the five giant crossbows leaning on the front took the lead in firing long arrows, and the red light was followed by a puff of white smoke, shooting towards the gate of the main village.

At the same time, the soldiers who had been specially transferred to the front to shoot the Heaven-Shaking Bow also released arrows towards the city.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of dust and smoke on the wall, bursting with countless dazzling lights, and the rubble was wrapped in human flesh and blood flying wildly.

"Straight lady thief, the people of the Ji family are not trustworthy, Lao Tzu hacked you to death." Behind the wall, there was a faint roar of angry Che Tu.
