Chapter 532, The Killing Feast.
An Qian's face was pale, and her voice trembled: "This is Zhao Jue's territory, there are thousands of troops!" We, how are we their opponents! Luo Yanran asked sarcastically, "You don't believe Brother Yang?" Anqian was furious and said angrily: "Who said I don't believe Brother Yang anymore!" However, however, there are many opponents, and no matter how powerful Brother Yang is, I am afraid that he will not be able to deal with it! ”……
Wang Kuo fled back to the garrison mansion, saw Zhao Jue, and knelt down with a thud. Zhao Jue was waiting for them to bring the people, but he didn't expect to see Wang Kuo fleeing back alone in embarrassment, and he was shocked and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" How did you get it like this? ”
Wang Kuo said with palpitations: "They have been prepared for a long time, we have been ambushed!" Zhao Jue only felt incredulous: "There is such a thing?!" Then he asked, "How much have you lost?" Wang Kuo swallowed his saliva and said, "It's all, it's all over!" Only, I'm the only one who fights the encirclement! Zhao Jue was startled and shouted hysterically: "This is impossible!" It's just seven or eight hundred caravan guards and servants, how can they deal with my 1,000 officers and soldiers?! ”
Wang Kuo hurriedly said: "This is absolutely true! Then he thought of the battle situation not long ago, his face showed a look of fear, and he couldn't help but say: "They, they are brave, they are all one as ten, and the subordinate officers and soldiers are slaughtered like chopping melons and vegetables, and they have no ability to resist at all!" Especially the leader among them," he couldn't help but swallow his saliva again, and his expression became very frightened, "he killed us alone and with one horse, and his subordinates have never seen such a terrible character!" It's a killing god! ”
Zhao Jue didn't believe it at all, and said angrily: "It's just nonsense, how can there be such a person!" Even those legendary Yanyun warriors, I don't think they're that powerful! You've messed up something for me, and you're talking nonsense to me! Wang Kuo was depressed, but the adults didn't believe it, and he didn't dare to continue.
Zhao Jue asked, "Where is my father-in-law?" Did he escape? Wang Kuo said: "He, he was caught by the other party, but his life is worry-free for the time being!" Zhao Jue said angrily: "That group of people actually dare to spread wild on my territory, I really don't know whether to live or die!" Then he said to Wang Kuo: "Immediately lead the people to the city gate, and do not let them escape from the city!" I'm going to have to kill them with my own hands!" Wang Kuo clenched his fists and promised, and ran down.
Zhao Jue called his own soldiers and ordered all the officers and soldiers to assemble. Soon after, the three thousand official troops were assembled, and under the leadership of Zhao Jue, they rushed towards the Four Seas Inn. The people and merchants in the city heard a huge killing sound from the Sihai Inn before, and they couldn't help but panic, and at this time they saw the officers and soldiers running towards the Sihai Inn again, with a murderous appearance, and they were even more panicked.
Before Zhao Jue led the army to the Four Seas Inn, he saw that there were no lights in the inn, and there was a quiet scene. Zhao Jue ordered a subordinate general named Sun Po to lead 500 people to search. This is Zhao Jue's strategy, he expected that the other party would definitely set up an ambush in the inn, if the army rushed in, he was afraid that he would encounter an ambush, and it was impossible for his two thousand soldiers and horses to defeat him, but he would definitely pay a lot of unnecessary casualties. Therefore, Zhao Jue came up with this bait plan, using Sun Po's five hundred men and horses to enter the inn first to lure the opponent out, and then he led the army to pour in and annihilate the enemy in one go! Zhao Jue thought of this strategy, and couldn't help but feel a little proud, only to feel that he was really clever, even if it was a famous general of the ancients, it was nothing more than that!
Sun Po led five hundred people into the inn. Soon after, shouts and fighting were heard in the inn. Zhao Jue's eyes lit up, and he immediately led the team into the inn. Soldiers and horses surged through the lobby into the backyard. However, what caught my eye was a quiet scene, the shouts of fighting just now had disappeared, and even the figures of Sun Po and the others were gone, as if they had never come in.
Everyone was amazed, and at the same time, a sense of fear rose in their hearts. Zhao Jue raised his voice and shouted: "Sun Po, Sun Po!" The voice echoed in the empty inn: "Sun Po, Sun Sun Po ......" but no one answered. Zhao Jue swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but panic in his heart! An officer stammered, "No, no, it can't be a ghost, right?!" As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts sank. Zhao Jue turned around and slapped him, and scolded: "If you dare to talk nonsense again to shake the morale of the army, there will be no forgiveness!" The officer kept his mouth shut, but he was not convinced.
Suddenly, countless bright spots flew around the inn. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was a rocket. I saw that the rocket fell into the inn, and countless fireheads jumped up, spreading rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, it was a fiery red! Zhao Jue exclaimed: "It's not good, it's a trick!" Evacuate! ”
All the officers and soldiers rushed outside, Zhao Jue and other thousands of people rushed out of the inn, at this moment the flames had spread, the door of the inn was burning, and the officers and soldiers behind were blocked in the inn and couldn't escape! Zhao Jue and the others looked back, only to see the officers and soldiers and officers burned by the flames, screaming miserably and running around. Everyone was frightened and angry, and Zhao Jue shouted: "Rats! If you have the guts, you will come out and fight me for 300 rounds! All the officers and soldiers also shouted.
At this moment, someone suddenly pointed to the roof of the house next to him and exclaimed, "Look! Everyone hurriedly looked around, and saw that there were many big men with bows and arrows on the roofs of the surrounding houses! Everyone was taken aback!
Suddenly, arrows rained down all around, and the officers and men of the unsuspecting and unsheltered officers and soldiers fell to the ground one after another, screaming one after another. The officers and men of the army scattered and fled, and they were in a mess. The people around who saw this scene were frightened and overjoyed, and they were terrified that they didn't know what the sudden appearance of these big men who slaughtered the officials and soldiers was coming from, and whether they would attack their own little people; I am glad that the beasts who have been killed by heaven since Zhao Jue and below have finally been treated by someone!
When the officers and soldiers were being shot dizzy, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the street in front of them, and I saw dozens of fierce men rushing out with spears and knives, and the momentum was like a landslide, which was extremely amazing! When the officers and men suddenly saw such a scene, they were so frightened that they scattered and fled before they could engage in battle.
Yang Peng led dozens of hidden killers into the middle of the officers and soldiers, the horses' hooves trampled, the cold light flew, the officers and soldiers rolled to the ground one after another, and the blood soaked the entire street! After a round of killing, I saw that the corpses on the street were scattered all over the place, and the officers and soldiers who were not dead had already gone into the surrounding alleys to flee for their lives, and hundreds of officers and soldiers were captured, kneeling on the ground, trembling and looking at these fierce and peerless war horses in front of them! Until this moment, they were still puzzled: why are the caravan guards so powerful?!
Wang Kuo was guarding the south city gate, and saw the Four Seas Inn burning from a distance, and couldn't help but be surprised. Then I heard the sound of fierce fighting from there, and thought that the Lord Commander was leading a large army to besiege those men. But after a while, the sound of the battle died down, and after another moment, I saw a dozen people rushing out of the alley in front of them in a panic and running towards this direction. Wang Kuo fixed his eyes, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he saw that the leader of the dozen or so people was actually the ruler.
I saw Zhao Jue running to the city gate, raised his head and shouted urgently: "Open the city gate quickly!" Wang Kuo felt that something was wrong, and while ordering the iron gate to be raised, he led hundreds of his men to run down the city wall. Wang Kuo asked, "My lord, what's wrong?" At this time, the iron gate had been raised, and Zhao Jue heard the terrifying sound of horses' hooves behind him, and he was so shocked that he didn't care to answer the question, so he ran out of the city first. The dozen or so people who fled with Zhao Jue hurriedly followed. Although Wang Kuo and the others didn't know what was going on, they also knew that something terrible must have happened, and they didn't care about it, and they all fled out of the city one after another.
Yang Peng led dozens of secret guards to gallop to the city gate, only to see that the city gate was already empty. Yang Peng led dozens of horsemen to rush out of the city gate and chase along the mountain road. Zhao Jue and the others were on foot, while Yang Peng and dozens of them were on horseback, and after a while, Yang Peng and the others caught up with Zhao Jue and others on the mountain road. Zhao Jue and the others were horrified and ran desperately, as if they had met a pheasant with a jackal. Yang Peng led dozens of horsemen to rush into the crowd, the horses stepped on the knife and slashed, and the screams sounded loudly on the mountain road.
The battle lasted only a quarter of an hour, and more than 200 corpses were scattered on the mountain road, and the blood stained the bluestone slab and the mountain wall next to it, which was shocking. A secret guard rushed to Yang Peng, hugged his fists and said, "Master, Zhao Jue, Wang Kuo and seven or eight others slipped down from the mountain wall next to them!" Yang Peng was quite surprised, rode his horse to the side of a plank road, and sure enough, he saw four figures under the cliff limping towards the south. Yang Peng exclaimed: "These guys are really in a hurry to jump off the wall!" Then he turned his head to the secret guard beside him and said, "You continue to pursue!" Dozens of hidden killers promised to follow the plank road in the direction where Zhao Jue and the others had fled, while Yang Peng turned his horse's head and went back to the Sword Pavilion.
Luo Yanran and Anqian learned that the battle was over, so they hurried to the street. I couldn't help but be taken aback when I saw the terrible sight of the corpses of the officers and soldiers all over the street. Anqian said in horror: "This, what happened? Luo Yanran's heart was also full of doubts and shock, and she couldn't help but say in her heart: 'Could it be that he actually wiped out the five thousand defenders of the Sword Pavilion?' Luo Yanran was extremely shocked by this idea, although she kept hearing about King Yan's brilliant achievements, she couldn't believe it anyway, he could completely annihilate thousands of people with just a few hundred people! This was impossible in her senses!
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves in front of him, he couldn't help but look up, only to see Yang Peng and several people riding back. The two women's eyes lit up, and they hurriedly greeted them. "Brother Yang!" The two women called in unison. Yang Peng turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "Okay, the matter is solved!" Anqian looked at the corpses of those officers and soldiers, and asked in disbelief, "Brother Yang, you, how did you defeat them?" Yang Peng smiled: "It's nothing!" Miss An, I have something to discuss with you! An Qian was greatly surprised, looked at Luo Yanran next to her with the attitude of a winner, and then said to Yang Peng: "Big brother, let's find a place to talk slowly!" When she said this, her eyes were full of affection, and she was very moving.
Yang Peng nodded and said, "Let's go to the garrison mansion." Immediately, the two of them and their entourage headed towards the garrison mansion, but Luo Yanran, her personal maid Yun'er and a few entourages stood still and did not move.
Yang Peng stopped, turned his head to Luo Yanran and said, "Miss Luo, you come with you too!" Luo Yanran let out an 'ah', and then asked angrily: "You discuss things with Miss An, what am I going to do?" Anqian hurriedly said: "Yes, Brother Yang, let's discuss things, and let irrelevant people be next to us, how inconvenient!" When she said this, Anqian's delicate face flushed, and her eyes were like spring water, I really don't know how inconvenient she is, what is so inconvenient.
Seeing Anqian say this, Luo Yanran said angrily: "I talk to Brother Yang, what kind of mouth do you have?" An Qian snorted and said confrontedly: "I just asked Brother Yang not to waste time on useless women!" Luo Yanran was furious, then calmed down, and said coldly: "Is it useful, but it's not what you said!" ”
Yang Peng saw that the two girls were arguing, endlessly, frowning and shouting: "Okay! What to do with these useless words! The two girls closed their mouths, but they both looked stingy and annoyed. Everyone felt a little funny when they saw such a scene, but no one dared to laugh.
Yang Peng said angrily: "Come with me!" "Then go to the garrison first. Ancy hurriedly followed with her entourage. Luo Yanran hesitated for a moment, and also followed with her entourage.
When everyone came to the garrison mansion, the garrison mansion had been controlled by the secret guards who had arrived in advance, and the original officers and soldiers and servants had already fled and disappeared. Yang Peng and the two girls walked into the lobby, Yang Peng walked to the top and sat down, and Luo Yanran and An Qian sat down on the left and right respectively.
Yang Peng glanced at the two women and said, "The situation is very critical now, let go of the small problems between the two of you!" The two women originally thought that the problem had been solved, but when they heard Yang Peng's words at this moment, they couldn't help but get nervous. Luo Yanran was about to ask, but An Qian preemptively said, "Brother Yang, hasn't the Song army here been wiped out yet?" ”
Yang Peng shook his head and said, "The Song army here has been wiped out, but Zhao Jue and a few people have fled, and the news will soon reach Chengdu!" In fact, even if Zhao Jue's people didn't escape, this matter wouldn't last long! Once the news reaches Chengdu, the pacification envoy will definitely react, we are forced to do so, but the aftermath of this matter is a big problem! The two girls nodded worriedly, and Anqian said with a pale face: "The pacification envoy will definitely raise a large army to attack!" This, how can this be good? Then he said in annoyance: "How did things come to be the way they are?" ”
Yang Peng said: "Miss An, I want to ask you to rush back to Chengdu immediately, tell the Xuanfu envoy about this matter, and ask the Xuanfu envoy to uphold justice!" ”
Anqian's eyes lit up, "That's right! I can ask my uncle to come forward! We are not responsible for this matter at all, it is the officers and soldiers here who pretend to be bandits to loot the merchant brigade in front, and then take advantage of the night to kill people and kill people in the back, we are completely forced to defend ourselves! Uncle, he will definitely do justice for us! ”
Yang Peng nodded and said, "Miss An must rush back to Chengdu before Zhao Jue and the others, otherwise our situation will be passive." Miss An, please make a hard trip, and rush back to Chengdu immediately, I will send my men to escort Miss there, and it will be safe! Anqian nodded, stood up, and said, "I'll go now!" Yang Peng turned his head to a secret guard captain beside him and said, "You escort Miss An, be sure to ensure Miss An's safety!" The squad leader clenched his fists in agreement.
An Qian said softly: "Brother Yang stays here, but you have to be careful about everything!" Yang Peng nodded, "Don't worry!" Anqian said, "My subordinates will stay and help the eldest brother!" Yang Peng originally had this intention, but when he heard An Qian take the initiative to say it, he nodded in his arms.
An Qian turned her head to look at Luo Yanran, a little unhappy that she would stay with Brother Yang, but she thought that Brother Yang had entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, obviously his position in Brother Yang's mind was much heavier, thinking of this, she couldn't help but be happy. turned around and said some words of concern to Yang Peng, and then reluctantly left, and the captain of the secret guard team followed her out.
Luo Yanran suddenly said: "In Brother Yang's heart, Miss An is much more useful than Little Sister!" Luo Yanran may not have noticed it herself, her tone at the moment was full of sour taste.
Yang Peng nodded, "Yes!" ”
Luo Yanran didn't expect Yang Peng to say this, her heart was hit hard, Huo Ran got up, and cried: "In this case, I'll go, so as not to make you annoying!" So saying, he was about to leave. Yang Peng's heart fluttered, and he hurriedly said, "Are you willing to leave me?" Luo Yanran was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but stop her steps, and said infinitely embarrassed: "You, what are you talking nonsense, what are you reluctant to reluctant?" Leaning sideways, he didn't dare to look at Yang Peng at all.
Yang Peng stood up, walked to Luo Yanran's side, grabbed her shoulders with both hands and moved her around. Luo Yanran glanced up at Yang Peng, and hurriedly lowered her head again.
Yang Peng smiled and said, "I know you like me." Luo Yanran was so ashamed that she almost wanted to find a hole to get into, her heart was pounding, her mind was in a mess, and her usual cleverness disappeared without a trace, "I, I, I didn't!" Yang Peng smiled and asked, "Nothing?" "Like you!" Yang Peng smiled, "Look, you said it yourself!" Luo Yanran realized that she had been fooled, and said in great shame: "You, you are too scoundrel!" Yang Peng smiled, "What I said can't be counted!" Picking up Luo Yanran's slender hand and kissing it gently, Luo Yanran only felt as if she had been shocked, stupid on the spot. Then infinite shyness and joy rushed in, and he lowered his head, and could clearly feel the beating of his heart.
Yang Peng smiled and asked, "Yanran, when did you like me?" As he spoke, he gently hugged Luo Yanran's delicate body into his arms.
Luo Yanran was very shy, leaned on Yang Peng's chest, and said in a voice like a gnat: "At Sister Zhao's birthday banquet that day, the eldest brother is amazing, and the little sister can't let go of the eldest brother in her heart!" Then he raised his head and glanced at Yang Peng, and said angrily: "The hateful thing is that you don't care about your little sister at all, and your little sister can't attract your attention in the slightest like everyone else in your eyes!" ”
Yang Peng couldn't help but bow his head and kiss Luo Yanran's red lips through the veil, and he could feel the warmth and sweetness behind the light veil. Luo Yanran sighed and completely collapsed in Yang Peng's arms. Yang Peng obviously felt that the temperature of the delicate body in his arms was rising, and he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps outside the door. Luo Yanran, who was in Yang Peng's arms, was shocked, hurriedly left Yang Peng's arms, walked to the side with her back to the door, and straightened her dress. Yang Peng smiled softly and looked towards the door, only to see Wang Kai and Zhao Xiang'er and two other middle-aged people hurrying in. As soon as the four of them saw Yang Peng, they saluted together: "Master (Yang Gongzi)!" Immediately, a middle-aged man said: "The villain received the order of the young lady, and the villain and his one hundred and fifty guards and fifty servants obeyed the dispatch of Yang Gongzi!" "This middle-aged man's name is An Fu, he is one of the great housekeepers of the An family, and he is also a close confidant of An Qian, this is a kind-faced middle-aged man, and this time the guards and servants are led by him.
Yang Peng nodded, "Thank you." An Fu was flattered and hurriedly said: "Young Master Yang is polite!" Chen Gongzi has an order, and the villain obeys it! ”
Yang Peng nodded, looking at Wang Kai and Zhao Xiang'er. Wang Kai immediately said: "Master, we have controlled the city gate and the treasury in the city according to the master's instructions. Zhao Xiang'er said: "The corpses on the street have been cleaned up, and the Anmin notices have also been posted on the streets and alleys according to the requirements of the eldest brother!" The fire at the inn has been extinguished, and those who were not burned to death have been captured by us! ”
Yang Peng pondered for a moment and said to Zhao Xiang'er: "You want to find a way to organize the people in the city and help us defend the city." Zhao Xiang'er looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid this is a little difficult!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "You can send people everywhere to say, just say that Zhao Jue fled and threatened to wash the Sword Pavilion in blood!" I think when the people hear this, they will be willing to cooperate with us! Zhao Xiang'er said happily: "This is a good way!" Towards Yang Peng, he hugged his fist, "My subordinates will do it!" Then he hurried away.
Yang Peng said to the two middle-aged men: "You go and organize your respective caravan guards and servants, and wait for orders at any time." The two of them hugged their fists and left. Luo Yanran said worriedly: "If that Miss An fails to invite his uncle, our situation will not be good!" Yang Peng thought about it and smiled: "Miss An should be able to say An Bing!" ……”
Luo Yanran said angrily: "You believe her so much? Yang Peng turned his head to look at Luo Yanran, and asked with a smile, "Jealous?" Luo Yanran was embarrassed, snorted, and turned around. Yang Peng smiled and asked Wang Kaidao, "Where are the captives being held now?" Wang Kai clasped his fists and said: "I am imprisoned in the military camp in the city." Yang Peng said: "Let's go, go and see!" With that, he walked outside.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
