Chapter Fifty-Eight: Escape
Liu Dayu saw Liu Yan rushing over with people, he was very panicked, and looked left and right, but found that there were only two family members around him, and the rest of the people all ran away.
At this time, Liu Dayu turned around and wanted to run, but he heard the sound of breaking the air behind him, so he hurriedly turned around and blocked with a horizontal knife, only to see a spear thrown by Liu Yan and hit the long knife in Liu Dayu's hand heavily.
"Ahh
Liu Dayu suddenly screamed as if he had been hit hard, a trace of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth, and the whole person fell backwards and sat on the ground, his hands holding knives kept trembling, and he was afraid for a while.
At the same time, Liu Yan quickly rushed to the front and slashed with a knife.
Liu Dayu hurriedly begged for mercy, but Liu Yan ignored it and slashed it down. Liu Dayu had no choice but to raise his knife to block again.
Just heard a sound, the long knife in Liu Dayu's hand was directly cut off, and then Liu Yan's Yanling knife was also knocked crooked, and it slashed along Liu Dayu's shoulder, directly cutting a wound the length of a forearm, and the blood flowed.
"Ahh
Liu Dayu was already full of heart and gall at this time, he never imagined that Liu Yan would be so fierce, and he was directly ambushed here, and as soon as he made a move, he came to kill people, just to kill himself!
So Liu Dayu didn't care about his back, and under the desperate obstruction of the two family members, Liu Yan's footsteps were delayed for a moment, while Liu Dayu was holding his injured arm, running and rolling to escape, and stepped on the air without running a few steps, fell directly from the side of the official road, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Liu Yan hacked a family member to death with a knife, and another family member was also stabbed to death by the pikemen of Dapan Fort.
Then Liu Yan came to the place where Liu Dayu fell, and saw that this was a mountain cliff, and there were shrubs below, and the situation below was not visible at all.
"Wang Xiaoqi!"
Liu Yan shouted a few times, and Wang Bo ran quickly with a few Dunjun spearmen. At this time, the battle on the official road was about to end, most of the 300 or so people brought by Liu Dayu and others were killed and wounded, and the rest were basically controlled, only a few 20 or 30 people were still resisting stubbornly, Wang Yue and Miao Shao were leading their troops to encircle and annihilate.
"Wang Xiaoqi, you immediately take someone down to check and look for Liu Dayu, you want to see people alive and corpses when you die!"
"Yes!"
Wang Bo hurriedly led people to find a gap that was not a road, and slowly went down, and it took a lot of effort to get to the bottom. Everyone searched for a long time, and only found some traces of blood, but Liu Dayu was nowhere to be found.
"Look, what is this!"
A dun soldier found a letter in the grass, Wang Bo took it and looked around, and said hatefully: "This fool can run fast!" ”
Then Wang Bo and the others came back to resume their lives, and at the same time handed over the letter to Liu Yan.
In this battle, Liu Dayu and more than 300 people were all destroyed, Liu Yan led his troops to behead more than 140 people, captured 107 people, and the rest were all scattered.
Xiaoqi officials Wang Bo, Wang Yue, and Miao Shao rushed to report the battle, and this time there were eleven pikemen killed and thirteen wounded in Dapanbao, which was a great victory.
Miao Shao said excitedly: "Captain A, these dun troops of our Dapan Fort have seen blood after this battle, and no one has flinched in this battle, and these dun troops are all elite after this battle!" ”
Liu Yan nodded in agreement, if the soldiers don't see blood and don't go into battle, no matter how good the training is, it's in vain!
Then Liu Yan took out the letter, opened it and saw that it was the inspection document issued by Dai Baihu to Liu Dayu.
Liu Yan burned the letter on the spot, and then said to Wang Yue: "You immediately send someone to report to the master of the management team, and say that the Huangshan dun, the wind volcano dun, and the sand ditch dun were suddenly attacked by thieves, Liu Dayu, Liu Qunyi, and Shen Wenyun were killed in battle, and the three dun armies were all defeated, and I am leading my troops to help!" ”
Wang Yue clenched his fists and took his life.
Later, Liu Yan sent people to light wolf smoke at the highest point of Huangshan Gang, and sent a signal to Xu Ming, a small flag officer, to immediately lead his troops to raid Huangshan Mound, Shagou Mound, and Wind Volcano Mound.
"Captain A, Liu Dayu ran away, will we be in trouble?"
Liu Yan smiled and said to Miao Shao: "Don't worry, he can't run!" ”
"And what about these captives?"
Liu Yan looked at the captives of more than 100 people, then stood on a stone, and said loudly to everyone: "I am Liu Yan, the first commander of Dapan Fort, you have two choices now: first, take refuge in me, I will arrange you to work everywhere, I will provide food and clothing, and after one year, I will pay your salary, and you will be able to obtain the status of a military household in Dapan Fort after two years." Second, if you refuse to take refuge, I will behead you all now! ”
After finishing speaking, Liu Yan glared at everyone and shouted: "Choose, immediately and immediately!" ”
These more than 100 captives were originally the bitter dun army and military households everywhere, and they were all suffering and tired everywhere, and this time they were also forcibly requisitioned and transferred by Liu Dayu, Liu Qunyi, and Shen Wenyun, and they had no grudges against Dapanbao.
So among the two choices given by Liu Yan, everyone chose to join Liu Yan without hesitation.
Subsequently, Liu Yan led his troops to send all these captives to Dapanbao, told Zhao Min to register these captives, and distribute military household stickers, and then prepared to arrange for these people to work in the military tun and salt drying fields.
Two days later, Xu Ming led the night without collecting the flag and returning triumphantly, and everyone not only took a large number of seizures, but also almost emptied the warehouses of Huangshan Pier, Shagou Pier, and Wind Volcano Pier.
As soon as Zhao Min registered more than 100 captives, he began to take people to count these seizures, in addition to a large amount of grain and grass, there were some fine and small armor, which was equivalent to more than 700 taels of silver.
Liu Yan ordered all these seizures to be put into storage, and then sent Xu Ming to Wangjiazhuang to inquire about the news.
"If Liu Dayu hadn't died, he would definitely have fled back to Wangjiazhuang now, you disguised yourself and mixed in, see what the situation of the Xu family is now, and come back at any time to report."
"Yes!"
Liu Yan only waited for a day in Dapanbao, and Xu Ming hurried over.
"Captain A, the Xu family is in chaos, and the Xu family's family began to pack their bags and hire a cart, it seems that they are ready to escape."
Liu Yan suddenly came to his senses, if Mrs. Xu had been hiding in Wangjiazhuang, it would be really difficult for him to continue to do it, as long as he came out, things would be easy to do.
"Is there any news of Liu Dayu?"
Xu Ming said: "My subordinates spent money to buy a servant of the Xu family, and I learned that two days ago, a person entered the Xu family in the middle of the night, and this person was injured in the arm, and even the old thief of the Xu family visited. ”
Liu Yan laughed and said, "That's Liu Dayu, that's right!" ”
At this time, Chen Xun, Wang Bo, Wang Yue, and Miao Shao were also in the General Flag Office, and they all asked for the next instructions.
Liu Yan said: "The old thief of the Xu family wants to run, he must move his family to the Qianqian Household in Xiahe Village, where there are Dai Baihu, who can provide shelter to the Xu family, this old thief must want to avoid the limelight over there, and then make a comeback." ”
"In that case, let's repeat the old trick and intercept and kill the old thief halfway!"
Early the next morning, Mrs. Xu got into the carriage, and at this time, more than 70 family members and servants of the Xu family were all dispatched to escort eight carriages in the streets and alleys outside.
The head of the sect, Jia Jinglang, looked at the entire team with a gloomy face, and made sure that all the fine soft had been loaded, and all the Xu family's family members had also gotten into the car, so he ordered to set off.
At this time, Liu Dayu and Mrs. Xu took a carriage, looked at the team outside the window, and said worriedly: "Uncle, let's go, I'm worried that Liu Yan will intercept us halfway!" ”
Old lady Xu leaned on a cotton mat, accompanied by two maids, one left and one right, looking very comfortable.
"What are you afraid of! The old man has 60 elite family members, all of whom can be defeated by one against ten! Besides, this time we went to the Qianqian Household Office in Xiahe Village, we only took the official road, so Liu Yan dared to kill in broad daylight! ”
"But I just feel a little risky, it's safer to stay in Wangjiazhuang."
"Confused!"
Old lady Xu scolded: "That Wang Weizhen has already worn a pair of pants with Liu Yan, and it is the most dangerous for us to stay here!" ”
As he spoke, the convoy had already left the south gate of Wangjiazhuang, and then marched all the way to the west. Seeing this, Liu Dayu stopped talking, but just looked out the window worriedly, for fear that Liu Yan would lead his troops to kill.
In the afternoon, the Xu family's convoy left the boundary of Wangjiazhuang, the surroundings were still very calm, there were still some pedestrians on the official road, but there was no one to see at this time, and Liu Dayu's vigilance in his heart was also relaxed for most of the time.
"It seems that Liu Yan is ......"
Before Liu Dayu finished his sentence, he vaguely heard something, and hurriedly leaned on the car window to look out, only to see a horse team attacking from the north, this horse team of thirty or forty people, all of them are strong men, all of them are iron armor, and in their hands are spears, very strong!
"Meet the enemy!"
Liu Dayu roared angrily, scaring the old lady Xu beside him, and then glared at Liu Dayu angrily. But when Mrs. Xu saw through the window the horse team that had rushed to the front, she suddenly turned pale with fright, grabbed Liu Dayu's hand and said, "Dayu save me!" ”
This grasp happened to catch Liu Dayu's wound, and the pain made Liu Dayu angry, angrily shook off Mrs. Xu, and then got out of the car.
At this time, the Xu family's convoy was completely chaotic, and the sixty family members who were relied on by Mrs. Xu were scattered by the horse team at the first time, and the sect leader Jia Jinglang was also knocked away by a war horse, and he was lying on the ground at this time.
This horse team is naturally the night of Dapanbao, and at this time, it is besieging and annihilating the Xu family's convoy under the command of Xu Ming, the small flag officer.
Xu Ming, the little flag officer, was cheering on his horse, and when he saw the injured Liu Dayu, he suddenly came to his senses and shouted loudly: "Kill Liu Dayu!" ”
Seeing this, Liu Dayu was so frightened that he wanted to flee for his life, but he was caught up from behind by a night soldier, and a spear pierced Liu Dayu's chest, and he died of exhaustion after a scream.
A moment later, the Xu family's convoy of dozens of people was slaughtered, and Xu Ming led his troops to surround the most luxurious carriage in the convoy, and then said loudly: "The people inside come out!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the old lady Xu and the two maids crawled out tremblingly, the two maids were already crying with pear blossoms and rain, trembling and at a loss, and the old lady Xu was also frightened to urinate incontinence, looking at the surrounding night soldiers, her lips trembled and she couldn't say a word.
Xu Ming sneered when he saw this, the old lady Xu, who was originally high in Wangjiazhuang, actually has today, it is really impermanent!
"Where are you going, old lady?"
Old lady Xu said timidly: "Go, go, and ask the general to spare his life!" ”
"I'm not a general!"
Xu Ming said with a smile: "I am the Dapanbao Mound Army, and I heard that the Xu family was raided by thieves, so I came to the rescue. It's just a pity, we are a step late, and the Xu family was slaughtered by thieves, what a sin! ”
After speaking, Xu Ming waved his hand, and the soldiers who did not collect the guns at night stabbed them, and the old lady Xu and the two maids were killed on the spot.
