Chapter 350: Robbery and Killing
Qingliang Mountain in the west of Jiangning City, the night is shrouded like a monster.
Banpo Qingliang Temple, hidden among the trees, a tree-lined road leads directly to the bottom of the mountain.
Qingliang Temple was built in the Southern Dynasty, 480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, how many buildings are in the smoke and rain.
In the Southern Tang Dynasty, the monk of the Dharma Eye gave a lecture in Qingliang Temple and asked the monks in the temple: "Who can untie the golden bell tied to the tiger's neck?" ”
The monks thought about it again and again, but they couldn't answer, and then it happened that the Dharma Lantern monk came over and said, "The person who tied the golden bell to the tiger's neck can untie the golden bell." ”
The bell must also be tied to the bell, which is out of here.
Qingliang Mountain is more than ten miles away from Jiangning, there are thirty or fifty monks in Qingliang Temple, but none of them are there tonight, even the Buddha statue of the main hall is gone, and it is replaced by a bluestone carving, the image of Mingzun who emits light patterns all around.
Wu Song was wearing a golden hoop on his head, his long hair was scattered, and he was wearing a blue-gray monk's robe, half-exposing his chest, and he was standing under the statue of Mingzun at this moment.
He was holding a book in his hand and reading, and Luo Jinshui was muttering something next to him, he couldn't help nodding his head, and he also had words in his mouth.
In the middle of the night, the night was deeper, and someone suddenly came outside the temple gate to tell the matter, and the two looked at each other after hearing it, and walked out quickly.
At the foot of Qingliang Mountain, there are more than 100 people, all of whom are burly and strong men, holding knives and spears and other weapons, wearing ordinary people's clothes. ”
Luo Jinshui nodded at these people, these are the disciples on the Green Willow Village, those who were brought to Tokyo by Zhao Ta from Huaixi last year, but they have not been included in the Xiang army for a long time.
After these people were accepted into Zhuangzi by Zhao Tan, they simply stopped the idea of joining the army, Mingli was a villager of Luliuzhuang, secretly learned martial arts, worshiped Mingzun, and secretly preached Mingjiao around the suburbs of Tokyo.
Zhao Ta brought these people out and handed them over to Luo Jinshui's subordinates, Luo Jinshui told them that they were going to do a big thing this time in the south, and there was no need to ask anything else, just remember that the right envoy and the flag envoy were all here, just listen to the command.
These believers naturally obey the order, they believe in Mingzun, believe in the right envoy, after all, there is no right envoy of light, they are afraid that they will die in Luzhou long ago, where can they live such a life of eating and drinking without worry.
As for the identity of the right envoy, they vaguely knew that it seemed to be an official, but they didn't know what the specific official was, but none of this mattered, as long as they could live a good life with the right envoy.
Luo Jinshui looked at these people, he knew that Zhao Ta was doing a big deal at the moment, but he was not as flustered as Yao Pingzhong, what kind of scholar clan and what gentry, it was too far away from the low level of the forbidden army like him, kill it, what should it do?
Besides, this is killed in the name of Mingjiao, and at this moment Mingjiao is in full swing, shouldn't it be even more appropriate to kill these big dogs?
Luo Jinshui didn't have pressure to kill the warrior clan, what he was worried about was the next thing, that thing was really pinning his head to his belt, and he was extremely bold.
Zhao Ta only let the people from Luliuzhuang come, and sent Wu Song and Shi Qian to help, just because the subsequent events were so important that there was no room for mistakes.
The disciples of Luliuzhuang did not join the Song army, and they did not have the atmosphere of the military camp on their bodies, so they could not see any flaws.
And Wu Song and Shi Qian are both from the green forest, and they are full of gangsterism, and now they are in the line of fire to teach and learn some scriptures and meanings, but there is nothing to do.
The real loophole is Luo Jinshui's own family, he has been in the army for many years, it can be said that he has learned the set of problems of the forbidden army thoroughly, as long as he has a little understanding of the forbidden army, he will see his true identity.
But fortunately, in Zhao Ta's plan, his identity does not need to be hidden, but he must pay great attention to what he says, and he can't talk nonsense or neglect.
Zhao Ta also told him, but if what happens after is seen, then he will die without a place to be buried, not to mention how miserable it will be at that time, in short, the mother-in-law remarried, the son changed his surname, and his incense is gone.
What Luo Jinshui is most afraid of is this, for the sake of his mother-in-law and son, this matter has to be done before and after, think carefully and calculate, and grit his teeth!
He looked at the disciples in front of him and shouted, "Can you do a good job of the things that the right envoy has explained?" ”
How can these disciples have many thoughts in their hearts, isn't it just to kill those dogs and gentry first, and then contact the Jiangnan Ming Sect, and at this moment they all shouted loudly: "The sun and the moon are bright, and the light blesses the right envoy!" ”
Hearing this, Luo Jinshui glanced at Wu Song next to him, Wu Song nodded, and gave an order, and more than 100 people took advantage of the quiet night to go straight to Jiangning Xicheng......
The middle gate of Jiangning Xicheng opened at this time, and Yao Pingzhong looked at the two teams going out with a complicated face at the head of the city.
These two teams are quite numerous, one is dozens, one is hundreds, each escorting a dozen carts, I don't know what is inside, but the wheels press the ground and there is a "creaking" sound, obviously the thing is extremely heavy, and it is harsh to hear in this night.
These two teams belong to two clans, and the main family is not in Jiangning, so they know that it may be dangerous, and they are also in a hurry to leave.
Wang Congying, a local scholar, wished that someone would take the lead, so he agreed to leave the two families first, and then sent a family member to follow the investigation on horseback, and as soon as they found no trace of the thief army, they immediately returned to the city to report the news, and they left Jiangning together.
Zhao Ta naturally did not stop this, and generously ordered Yao Pingzhong to open the west gate and let the two families out, and then sat in the Xuanfu Division, waiting for news with the scholars.
The two families who went out of the city knew that they could not cross the Yangtze River, because there were no boats, and the things they carried were so heavy that even medium-sized boats might not be able to carry them, and many people followed.
And Zhao Ta can't give them a boat, this is already a military business, maybe they secretly spend money to buy it, Zhao Ta may still open the net, but there are more than a hundred waiting behind, where are there so many boats?
What's more, if the ship is transported, the carriages and horses also have to be transported over, not to mention this night, I am afraid that it will be difficult to transport it all day tomorrow, and it will have to be chaotic when the time comes, if the thief army kills it at this time, it will be a great disaster.
So these two families are quite conscious, and decided to go to Hongzhou in the southwest, after all, there is really no place to go, the east is the line of Suzhou, and the war is going on, and the Xuanzhou thief army in the south is advancing north, and the river can't be crossed, so they can only go west.
The two families went out of the city together, the vehicles were heavy and good to take the official road, there was almost no soft side in the dozen or so cars, all of them were gold, silver and jewelry, and there were countless valuables in the original family, but Fang La went down to the state to seize the mansion, and the thieves looted it, and it is estimated that there is nothing left at this moment, and it is very likely that even the house will be burned down.
In addition to the family members, the rest of the two warrior teams are guards, but they also have blades, swords and guns, and even bows and arrows hidden in the car.
They are powerful in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are even private soldiers below, but they fled all the way, and they couldn't bring so many people, so they could only pick up some strong guards to follow.
The team walked all the way, about seven or eight miles away, and saw dense forests on both sides, and the cool breeze was howling, and it looked a little sinister.
The guards with experience in the rivers and lakes all frowned, and asked the people below to hold their knives and guns tightly and take precautions.
The few servants who came to explore the way for the scholars in the city hurriedly hid behind, shrunk their heads, and did not dare to step forward.
At this moment, a carriage in the middle lifted the curtain, and a heavy voice asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The leader of the guards reported: "My lord, the villain sees that this place is sinister, so let people be more vigilant." ”
The voice was silent for a moment when he heard this: "Escort Cao, hurry up, don't pity the carriages and horses, if you can reach Hongzhou safely, the old man will have a heavy reward." ”
The guard clenched his fists on the horse and said gratefully: "Don't worry, the villain will definitely escort the lord to Jiangxi, and swear to die!" ”
After a "hmm" in the car, the team continued to move forward for two miles, and reached the corner of Guanlu Road, where there were some continuous hills, blocking the view ahead.
At this moment, the moonlight in the sky was very white, but because the hillock blocked the view, Cao Huwei just wanted to order everyone to be careful, when he heard a loud "boom" sound, and many stones and trees rolled down from the hillock, and immediately crashed into the team, causing a miserable scream.
"The sun and the moon do not fall, only the light, what joy is in life, and what is the pain in death!" Suddenly there was a loud voice on the hill,
"Ah, the Demon Cult Thief Army!" The two teams of the Shi clan immediately became chaotic, whether it was the Shi clan in the car or the surrounding guards, they were all familiar with these slogans, this was the signal that the Ming Sect was going to attack.
"Quick, protect the Lord!" Cao Guard's face changed greatly, even if he had made preparations in his heart, he still couldn't help but panic when he really encountered the thief army.
The leader of the warrior clan in the carriage opened his mouth wide at this moment, and his face was instantly pale, and his intestines were blue at this moment, but he didn't expect that the thief army would really kill him, and he was so close to Jiangning!
But at this time, it was too late to say anything, and he immediately shouted: "Go back, go back to the city quickly......
But these two teams have a large number of chariots and horses, and there are many gold and silver heavy objects in the carts, so how easy is it to turn around on the spot? Although the official road has a nice name, it is actually not so spacious, it is just a slightly flat dirt road, and at this time the horses neighed and the people shouted, and they did not feel that it became chaotic.
The stone and wood on the top of the hill rolled into the team, not only hurting some people, but also stumbling over the horse, blocking the way, Cao Huwei's expression became more and more ugly, and he hurriedly roared again: "Protect the lord and retreat!" ”
The warrior guards, after some training, immediately formed a circle, wrapped the chariot in it, and waited for the horses to turn their heads inside.
But at this moment, there was a sudden banging sound, and the feather arrows on the hill were shot down one after another, although there were not many, but the officials and Taoists below gathered like a group, all like live targets, even the blind could shoot a few.
"Ahhh
If it was just a few scouts, then the two guards could also gather more than a hundred people, and they might not be able to deal with it, at least they could retreat while fighting.
But at this time, the few domestic servants who were exploring the way in the city following the team had already turned their horses' heads, they didn't care whether they protected the lord or not, the life and death of the two families in front of them had nothing to do with them, and it was important to save their lives.
Seeing that these servants were about to run, the guards were all moved and tried to flee back, but at this moment, in the forest on the hill, under the cover of feathered arrows, a sentry of men and horses came.
The sentry didn't have any banners, but they shouted "The light is high, the same as the sky, kill the darkness, and the dawn will be revealed", so they rushed over with a cold and shining weapon.
The leader of these men was a head dressed as a head, burly, murderous, armed with two swords, and his feet were faster than those on horseback, and he came straight to the circle surrounded by the guards.
Cao Huwei was riding on a horse, carrying a steel gun in his hand, and when he saw that more than 100 people rushed down from the hill, he knew in his heart that this must be the scout of the thief army, not much, and it could be a battle.
He looked at it with both eyes, and saw the fierce god of the head with the double knife rushing towards him, and couldn't help snorting coldly, and a dragon with a steel gun in his hand stabbed forward from the water, and shouted in his mouth: "The dog thief is so daring!" ”
Toutuo is Wu Song, before Zhao Ta's instructions to occupy the Qingliang Temple, he is thick on the outside and thin on the inside, in order to make things realistic later, he made this walker dress, at this moment to see the gun, did not dodge, a knife to go.
The steel gun was heavy and fierce, and it was difficult to block it with a single knife, but Wu Song had such arm strength that he shouted "open", and he actually bounced the steel gun with a single knife, and then stepped forward, and the knife was like cutting lard and slices of tofu, and wiped off Cao Guard's head.
Cao Guard's head flew out and smashed into the carriage with shock, blood gushing from his neck, and the heat poured half of the cart.
When Wu Song heard the screams in the car, he couldn't help but slash the car again, and split the carriage straight, and saw a man about fifty years old sitting inside, looking at him with a frightened face.
Wu Song sneered, the steel knife in his hand was raised, and the man shouted in a panic: "The Holy Army spares me not to die, and I will give all those gold, silver and jewels ......."
Before he finished speaking, he was already stabbed in the chest by Wu Song, and he was just hanged, and he couldn't die anymore.
At this time, the disciples of Luliuzhuang had already killed the guards of the Shi clan and lost their armor, not because these disciples were strong in martial arts, but because the guards were desperately trying to escape, few people were like Cao Guards, who had the courage to attack first, and they all fled in the direction of Jiangning while resisting, as for the main family in the carriage, as well as those gold and silver goods, they didn't care.
Although the disciples were originally homeless, but since the completion of Zhuangzi, they have been working hard every day, dancing with guns and sticks, Zhao Ta also found a few books of swords and guns for them to practice, these people have been on the battlefield no matter how they have been in Luzhou, and they are like wolves and tigers at this moment.
For a time, the sound of killing on this official road was endless, many guards were cut off their horses, the rebels were added, all of them were hacked to death, and the rest ran in a hurry, and the disciples chased and killed, until the people turned over on their backs, and the ghosts cried and howled.
Wu Song took a few people and dragged out all the family members of the scholar clan in the car, one by one, leaving no living mouths, killing dead corpses everywhere, and the blood flowed like a stream.
When I came to a delicate carriage, there was a sobbing sound inside, and when I pulled it out, I saw that it was a beautiful girl, with willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, a little bit of cherries, and a panicked face looking at Wu Song and others, tears flowed down like pearls with broken threads.
Wu Erlang didn't frown, his eyes didn't blink, he just went down with a knife, and killed the girl too, and then killed all the people of the Shi clan in the carriage!
At this time, the disciples who chased and killed the guards came back to report that they had run away one or twenty, Luo Jinshui remembered Zhao Ta's order that he needed to let go back, so he said "Okay", and then asked people to take the corpse of the leader of the Nashi clan, and then escorted the gold and silver chariots and horses, and went straight back to Qingliang Mountain.
After arriving at Qingliang Mountain, he left two carts of gold and silver to hide in the temple, and the rest were sent to Niutou Mountain in the southwest......
But it was said that those guards who escaped by luck were like frightened birds at this time, running madly towards Jiangning City, and before they ran to the city, they began to shout at the distant city head: "It's not good, it's not good, the Demon Sect thief army has killed ......."
