Chapter 57: The Dissolution of Dalongzhai
Lin knelt down and kowtowed after carefully speaking, and said tremblingly, "Adult, the little one really doesn't know, I beg the adult to spare the little one's life." ”
He felt bored and waved his hand to let him take him down.
Dalongshan
"Big... Boss, just now a confidant of mine came to the news, our entire Ma'an Mountain was surrounded by Mu Yu'an's 100,000 army, and the encirclement is gradually tightening, what we are beginning to encounter is their vanguard, the big boss, what should we do? ”
Zhu Kewu was in his Dalongzhai study, and a henchman was whispering the news he had just gotten at this time, looking flustered and his tone trembling a little.
"Someone from the other four cottages knows the news."
When the big boss Zhu Kewu heard the news, his pupils widened and his face was solemn. The cunning eyes turned around in the sockets a few times, and asked softly, seeing that his subordinates shook their heads and said.
"The other four people sent out by the stockade to inquire were all dealt with by our people according to your orders."
"Well done, it's your reward."
Zhu Kewu got up from the chair and walked in front of his men, took out a bag of bulging silver taels from his arms and threw it to him, and suddenly when the subordinate took the silver taels with both hands and was about to thank him.
"Ahh
Zhu Kewu took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve and cut his throat from the back, blood gushed out from the very small and smooth gap of the wound, and after a while, the trembling body slowly lost his breath.
Zhu Kewu looked up with his eyes, wiped the blood stains on the side of the knife on the clothes of his subordinates in disgust, and then seemed to have done a sparse and ordinary thing. Walked to the door, opened the door, shouted to the guards outside the courtyard to clean up, and walked in the direction of the lobby chamber.
"Come on, call the brothers in the village to discuss matters."
Zhu Kewu hurriedly walked from the backyard of the study to the lobby meeting hall, and immediately convened the brothers in the village to discuss the matter. On the surface, he is the eldest brother of Sizhai, but he knows that those three brothers are actually greedy for life and afraid of death, and they each have ghosts.
"Brothers, I just got the news that the more than 100 people who fought with us before are the vanguard of the Xiliang Army, and there are still thousands of Xiliang Army under the mountain who are gradually searching the mountain, so I decided to disband the cottage."
As soon as Zhu Kewu's words fell, exclamations and discussions suddenly sounded in the lobby, and one of the irritable bald men shouted:
"Big boss, how can we just give up the little family business that we have built up with great difficulty, isn't it just a few thousand officers and soldiers, Lao Tzu will take his brothers to destroy them."
"Stop, I know that my brothers are all heroes who are not afraid of death, but I don't want to take my life because of this, if the Xiliang Army still has backup, it will be too late to evacuate by then."
Zhu Kewu's eloquent remarks made those brothers in the village who had just been surging with blood speechless.
"Big boss, it's worth it for the brothers to follow you in this life, and we will go there when the big boss goes."
"Yes, big boss, we follow you."
Zhu Kewu looked at this group of brothers, his eyes were red, and he said:
"Brothers, I, the big boss, have been on the key list of the Xiliang Army, and it is dangerous to break through with me, if I am lucky enough to escape, I will gather my brothers again, and then drink and eat meat together."
After Zhu Kewu finished speaking, he also asked his subordinates to bring four or five boxes, and after opening them, there was a burst of jewelry, which blinded everyone's eyes.
"This is all the gold and silver in my big dragon village, each person take a copy of the plate and say goodbye, brothers cherish."
Danglong Mountain
"Second brother, just announced the dissolution of Dalongzhai after the eldest brother, what should we do?"
"Yes, second brother, the third brother is gradually searching the mountains and encircling thousands of Xiliang troops under the mountain, otherwise the three of us will be disbanded and go our separate ways."
Just after the news of Zhu Kewu's announcement of the dissolution of Dalong Village came out, the leaders of the other three villages hurriedly came to Danglong Mountain.
"Xue Yu, Zhu Lie, how can you be as old and confused as Zhu Kewu, he is greedy for life and afraid of death, how can we give up our family business that we have built up with great difficulty, and besides, it's a big deal that we go to the Huns, what are we afraid of."
The leader of Danglong Mountain is their Black Dragon Mountain and the second brother Jiang Qing of the White Dragon Cottage Owner, and the three of them are sitting together with confidence at this time.
A few people thought that even if Sanzhai integrated the soldiers and horses together, there would be more than 3,000 people, even if the Xiliang army surrounded them, they could also rely on the favorable terrain in the mountains to attack and retreat, so they had no fear, and they also prepared wine and food to push the cup and change the wine and talk happily.
……
A few miles away from the four villages, Li Guangcheng and the others happened to supervise the movements of the four villages, waiting for Mu Yu'an's troops to converge.
Meng Wudao, "Just now, the big boss of Dalongzhai immediately announced the dissolution of the village, and many people fled in the direction of the Huns with packages on their backs, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, do you need to stop these people immediately?" ”
Li Guangcheng shook his head when he heard this, and said with a solemn smile:
"This Zhu Kewu may know the actual number of our Xiliang army, and he wants to escape before our 100,000 army is encircled, and he is also shrewd."
"But why is there only Dalongzhai disbanded, and the other three villages have no movement at all, as if everything is as usual, and they don't take us seriously at all."
Meng Wu looked at Li Guangcheng with a puzzled expression and scratched the back of his head.
"These four villages, on the surface, advance and retreat together, but in fact, each boss has a ghost in his heart, if Zhu Kewu also informs them of the actual situation, then who will contain us, while the siege is not completed, he will have time and a chance to escape."
After hearing this, Meng Wu suddenly realized, and secretly talked about Zhu Kewu's cunning.
Li Guangcheng looked at Meng Wu's expression and said, "Don't worry, every exit under the mountain has been blocked, you send a few people to follow most of the escapees, leave a mark, and it will be convenient to arrest at that time." Since Dalongzhai is disbanded, then I will go to meet Zhu Kewu. ”
After Li Guangcheng made arrangements, he took the rest of the people to Dalongzhai.
Before he shouted to open the walled door, the walled door was already wide open, and when he walked in, he found that there were a group of people kneeling down in front of the walled gate, old and weak, women and children, leaving only these people who could not walk and some bandits who had time to go.
Li Guangcheng looked at the old, weak, sick and disabled people who were kneeling on the ground, Xiao Jin dismounted, and said loudly, "Can anyone tell me that your big boss Zhu Kewu ran there." ”
Before he finished asking, a centurion Zhao Tongdi came up with a few brothers tied up with a person and hugged his fists. "My lord, I caught a suspicious person, this person rode to the front of the village, and when he saw my officers and soldiers coming up, he beat his horse and fled."
"Oh," seeing that this man was dressed in silk, how could he look like a bandit.
Li Guangcheng asked in a solemn voice, "Who are you?" ”
Seeing that he kept his head down and was silent.
Meng Wu roared strongly, "Do you dare to reply to the adult? Look for death. ”
A bandit kneeling in the crowd below said, "Adult, the little one knows him, he is the master of Dalongzhai." ”
"Adult, the little one knows, he must be for his wife, his wife was our big boss a few years ago, no, the bandits of Dalongzhai robbed him to be the second lady, he must have come to find his wife."
After listening to this, Li Guangcheng asked. "Is it true?"
Seeing him looking at a woman kneeling in the crowd, he couldn't take his eyes off and was silent.
Then, let someone loosen his ties and said, "You have been robbed of your own woman, and you still call others brothers, you are the man." ”
"I thought about snatching him back and killing him. However, there are many people, I can't find a chance, I can't beat ordinary people, Mei Niang still has my flesh and blood in her belly, if I don't want my cheap life, find him to fight, what will happen to my child. ”
The woman began to weep when she heard him, and then she realized that she was still holding a little girl in her arms.
Approaching, squatting down and pulling the little girl over, seeing her looking at him fearfully, Li Guangcheng smiled, "What's your name?" ”
"My name, my name." The little girl trembled with fear.
The woman kowtowed and said, "The child's name is Wan'er." ”
Li Guangcheng nodded and picked up the little girl.
The lord Bo Jiahong's face was full of shame and indignation, and he said angrily, "My lord will not pursue that old thief Zhu Kewu, and when he gets into the mountains, it will be difficult to find them again." ”
"Look at your still speaking, you used to be a showman."
At this time, the little girl was no longer afraid of Li Guangcheng, hugged him and laughed, Uncle took you down the mountain to eat delicious food. ”
Jia Hong looked at the woman in the crowd, and the little girl in his arms, knelt down and choked up, "If the adults can trust me, let me make meritorious contributions, and give me some people, I will definitely bring Zhu Kewu's head to meet the adults." ”
Seeing that he didn't reply, he only cared about teasing his little girl, and continued, "There are dozens of mountains nearby, only I can find them, sinner Jia Hong, I just ask the adults to be kind to my wife and children." ”
Xiao Jin looked at him with a look in his eyes, "No need, they can't run, don't walk around in the stockade, when you bring our Xiliang army here, you will be taken down the mountain to settle down." ”
Meng Wu came to his side and said, "My lord, Zhu Kewu was not found among the fleeing people. ”
"Meng Wu, you keep a dozen people to maintain order, I'll go in and take a look." Li Guangcheng said.
Turning his head and looking at the group of people kneeling again, "Get up, this official only kills the leader of the bandits, and if you have the strength, help the official transport things." ”
After speaking, he hugged the little girl and asked her to show her the way, and came to Zhu Kewu's bedroom.
Li Guangcheng followed the direction pointed by the little girl Wan'er, walked up the stone steps to the lobby meeting hall, there were more than a dozen Taishi chairs on both sides, and a wider chair in the center, covered with a soft tiger skin.
After Li Guangcheng looked at the lobby furnishings, he walked in along the corridor to the left of the middle of the lobby, which was a large backyard.
After a hundred paces, I pushed open the door, and the furnishings inside were orderly and undisturbed, but empty.
"Is there a secret room, or is there a tunnel?"
Li Guangcheng looked at the room furnishings, fell into deep thought, and groped up and down the library and the big bed, but there were no clues.
At this moment, the little girl Wan'er bumped into a half-person-high candlestick, and the library against the wall behind the curtain of the candlestick suddenly moved away, revealing a half-open stone door.
Li Guangcheng took out the dagger on his waist and walked step by step into the stone gate, and when he came to the stone gate, he walked down the stone steps. Ren is empty, the secret room is surrounded by swords, guns, swords, halberds, and a box on a stone platform in the middle.
Li Guangcheng cautiously opened the wooden box, and there was an old book in it, called Vientiane Decision.
