At the banquet that day, Ghost Li shouted the slogan of "annexing all mountains and unifying Yishui", igniting the wildfire in the hearts of those bandits.

Early the next morning, Ghost Li called Li Laoqi over and asked him to take people down the mountain to find out the information of the surrounding mountains.

The action must be fast, otherwise after the news of Yushan's defeat of the Yamen in Yishui County spreads, other cottages will be vigilant.

Li Laoqi actually had some secret resistance to the annexation of the mountains in his heart, but his advantage was that he was obedient enough, and he would do whatever Li Ghost asked him to do.

After receiving the order, Li Laoqi took a few people and secretly ran around the mountains to get a clear understanding of the local terrain and the situation of the cottage.

He was originally one of the bandits, even if he was seen by the bandits, it was just that when he stepped on the line, he would be beaten up at most and rushed back, and he would not think that he wanted to be unfavorable to the cottage.

In just a few days, the old bottom of each mountain was figured out.

With this information, coupled with the intention of calculating or not, it is no longer a problem to take down the mountains.

Among them, Sushan has the most obvious loopholes and is the easiest to take.

In order to build more confidence for the rabble under his command and make the training effect better, Li Gui decided to pick up the soft pinch of persimmon and chose Sushan as the first target.

After suspending training for a day and letting the soldiers rest well, early the next morning, when it was still dark, Li Gui ordered the drumming to assemble.

This group of people also knew that today was going to the battlefield, it was a life-and-death fight, and it was very dangerous, so they made all the preparations they could make to the extreme.

Although they did not have paper armor, the poor ghosts had their own way of doing it—they wore thick clothes on their bodies.

Last time, it was a defensive counterattack, and the officials came too quickly, and they didn't have time to use it, so now they are prepared in advance, and of course they have to arm everything to the teeth.

It's hot, but it's better than dead, isn't it?

Fortunately, it's early in the morning, and the weather is not so hot, so hurry up, maybe before noon, you can have lunch on the mountain.

Ghost Li led a group of people all the way without saying a word, quietly and quickly walking, and arrived at the foot of Sushan before noon.

Under the shade of the woods, a dilapidated cottage appeared in front of everyone.

It's also a cottage, and the cottage here in Sushan is particularly broken.

Probably because they have never been requisitioned, the walls of these cottages are relatively low, and many of them are woven with wooden shelves and bamboo strips, and at most a layer of yellow mud is pasted on the outside.

The wall of Yushan is almost like this, or after Ghost Li came, he ordered those auxiliaries to rebuild, otherwise it would not be much stronger than other cottages.

The wall here in Sushan is particularly weak, and you can see it from a distance, and on one side of the wall, a big hole has been broken, but no one has repaired it.

In fact, this kind of environment is best for night attacks, but most of the farmers in this era are night blind, not to mention night attacks, even if they walk at night, it is easy to get lost.

When the time comes, when the night fights, it is not clear whether it is the enemy or one's own people who will be stabbed to death.

After Li Ghost and the others approached carefully, they found that there was no one in front of the door, and the dozen or so amateur archers who had been hastily trained were useless at all.

It was not early, and the sun was already rising, but in front of the cottage gate, there was still no guard in sight.

This is not in the army, who is patient to guard the gate all day?

The bandits are all rabble, and the discipline is extremely poor, especially the cottages in the mountains are still colluding with the Li officials in the city, and they are not worried that they will be requisitioned by the government, so in terms of vigilance, it is particularly poor.

After seeing the environment, Ghost Li directly dispelled the original plan to infiltrate through the loophole, and directly waved his hand and led his soldiers to rush in from the main entrance.

Entering the gate, there was an open space in front of me, and a few people were scattered in the square, and when they saw Li Gui and others suddenly rushing in, they were stunned and stupid.

Li Ghost took the lead, rushed to the front in three or five steps, and his hand fell with a knife, killing like chopping melons and vegetables.

When the blood in the neck of the first person rose to the sky like a fountain, the thieves who were attacked reacted, and immediately screamed and turned around and fled, without the slightest sense of resistance.

Ghost Li did not rush to chase and kill, but ordered the pikemen to line up in the square and march forward in unison.

When the thieves gathered and rushed out with dung forks and wooden sticks in their hands, they were hit head-on by a forest of spears.

The leader who rushed ahead, when he saw the opposite formation, didn't say a word, left the guy, turned his head and ran, and shouted:

"The officers and soldiers are coming, run for your life......"

It's no wonder that he admitted his mistake, ordinary cottages don't even have a few steel knives, and this kind of gun-like array has only been heard of, but never seen.

What's more, there are more than a dozen people wearing armor in front of their heads, this is not the configuration of the official army, who are they?

In fact, according to normal speaking, Li Gui's complete set of configurations, without one or two thousand, is categorically impossible to procure, but Li Gui directly eats black and black, and without spending a penny, he got a lot of weapons and equipment for nothing.

Seeing that the leaders had fled, the other bandits naturally did not resist, and immediately threw away the guys and scattered as birds and beasts.

"Thief Bird!"

"Run as fast as you can!"

"Even this rat gall is worthy of being a thief?"

Li Ghost cursed in a low voice, and ordered two teams to be chased and killed separately, while shouting: "Those who surrender kneel to avoid death!" ”

As soon as these words came out, it was better than anything else, and immediately he knelt on the side of the road.

In these years, we also pay attention to the law and do not hold the public accountable, and even if it is a rebellion, it is often only the first evil, and the rest are ignored.

As long as he is not the leader of the cottage, he will all be lowered immediately, and his movements are faster than the other, for fear that he will be killed if he is slow.

This battle was fought so smoothly that I didn't encounter any resistance, and the intensity was not as fast as the previous ones.

Of course, Ghost Li also understood that there were thieves who misunderstood this, thinking that it was an important reason for the attack of officers and soldiers, otherwise it would not have gone so smoothly.

If you get a few more official clothes, pretend to be an official soldier, and then shout the slogan of only punishing the head of the enemy, I am afraid that several other cottages can be completely self-defeating, and even the leader of the thieves will be tied up and sent out by his subordinates.

But this kind of training method is useless except to make soldiers arrogant!

Ghost Li asked all the thieves to gather together, collect their weapons, surround them with guns, and then stand in the middle of the square, waiting to receive the results of the battle.

In a short time, the people who had gone out to chase the thieves came back one after another, and at the same time, they brought back the leaders who had fled.

However, due to unfamiliar paths and other reasons, several leaders have disappeared, including the big leader of the cottage.

Wu Chang, who led the team to track, trembled and replied, fearing that the moody master of the village would hack him to death with a knife.

However, Ghost Li actually didn't care if the leader was caught or not, for him, the most valuable thing was already in his hands.

He waved his hand casually, signaled the captain to retreat, and then called over Li Laoqi and said:

"The old rule, let them vote first!"
