Li Shen's team marched for half an hour and didn't see anyone, Li Shen regretted it a little, it was better to spend the night on the boat and come out during the day tomorrow.

He thought there would be a town around here, but he didn't know it would happen.

But soon they saw a bright light in the distance, and Li Shen began to get excited, and finally there was someone.

They can camp outside, but they don't have water and can't eat.

"Lord Qi, the enemy situation has been discovered ahead." In the distance, a scouting guard rode back.

"Spotting the enemy? What nonsense are you talking about, we are in the territory of Datang. Li Shen looked incredulous. Dream, what kind of hostility can there be here.

"Lord Qiqi, the front is not the lights of the people's homes, but the fire specially set by someone, and we hear the sound of fighting and shouting in front of us.

We're actually four or five miles away. The guard replied.

"Four or five miles?" Li Shen was surprised, if it was four or five miles away, you could see the fire here, how big a fire would it be.

And there are fights and shouts of killing, could it be mountain bandits?

Thinking of this, Li Shen immediately ordered:

"Order, speed up, how can this be reasonable, in broad daylight, Lang Lang, there are still thieves who dare to make trouble in the territory of Datang, it is really bold."

"The prince has an order, speed up."

At the sound of the order, all the horses began to run, four or five miles was not enough for Dawan horses to warm up, and it was a matter of moments.

This is supposed to be a village, and the place where the fire started is to the south of the village, and at first glance it is a large family, a high-gate compound.

But now there was indeed a fire inside, shouting, shouting and killing, which was mixed with the screams and cries for help.

You don't need to look at Li Shen to conclude that there must be thieves who seek money and kill people and loot large families.

"Rengui, you take people to take down all the thieves inside to this king, and those who resist will be killed, with a crossbow."

Li Shen ordered,

"The minister commands." After that, Xue Rengui ordered the guards to get off their horses, each with a long knife and a crossbow in their hands.

After inspecting the weapons and armor, Xue Rengui rushed into the courtyard with the guards.

In Li Shen's opinion, 200 guards armed to the teeth were enough to deal with thousands of mountain bandits.

They couldn't even break through the armor of the guards.

This kind of small role, Li Shen felt that he didn't need to do it himself at all, and his subordinates could handle it.

Soon Li Shen heard a louder shouting of killing coming from inside,

"Tie Niu, you divide fifty men to ride horses to look around the hospital, and if someone escapes and does not surrender, he will shoot him with a bow and arrow.

Don't let one run away. ”

Li Shen said to the iron bull beside him.

He was very confident in his guards, and he couldn't break through the weapons of the king's eight shells on this body.

In the end, it must be the other party who fails, and Li Shen is afraid that someone will run away.

Tie Niu came back soon after arranging Li Shen's order,

At this time, he knew that no matter what happened, he had to stay by the prince's side.

The shouting continued for a quarter of an hour and began to slowly become quieter. And people keep jumping out of the wall,

"Squat down immediately, and those who descend will not be killed." The guards outside shouted ahead with their bowstrings drawn.

Some people were very cooperative and immediately squatted on the ground, and some people tried to escape, but they were killed by an arrow before they could run two steps.

Li Shen stood in the distance and watched all this quietly,

He won't be like the protagonist in the time-traveling novel, putting on armor and rushing to kill himself.

It's hard to be a prince and go on your own, stupid or not.

The reason why Li Shen is keen on the research of long-range weapons is because he has the heart of a sixth child.

In his previous life, Li Shen played games and didn't choose the front row, let alone reality.

In less than half an hour, the battle was over, and the shouts of killing in the courtyard were gone, but some places were still burning.

At the gate, Xue Rengui walked out first, followed by several people.

When he got closer, Li Shen saw that among the people who followed Xue Rengui, the leader was an old man, and the other three were middle-aged.

"Lord Qiyu, it has been controlled inside, thirty-seven people have been captured, and the rest of the thieves have all been killed."

Xue Rengui came to Li Shen's side and replied.

"Well, well done, we can have casualties." Li Shen rode on his horse and nodded.

"Lord Qiyu, a group of young people are just a group of young people, and they are not our opponents without relying on armor."

Xue Rengui felt embarrassed, this group of people didn't have anything, and their weapons were different, they looked like a rabble,

In order to quickly resolve the battle, the guards did not dodge at all, relying entirely on the rogue tactics of armor, slashing and slashing.

He felt a little overwhelmed.

"Well, if there are no casualties, the king's guards are invaluable. If it's for the sake of these thieves, it's not worth the loss. ”

Li Shen didn't have Xue Rengui's thoughts, no matter what method he used, as long as there were no casualties among his own people, it was a good way. What is not victorious, where there is life is important.

"Lord Wang, this is the owner of this mansion. I would like to ask to see His Highness. Xue Rengui pointed to the old man behind him and said.

"The villain sees the prince." The old man and the middle-aged man behind him bowed to Li Shenshen. Then continues:

"Thank you for the rescue, the grace of saving your life, the grace is as heavy as a mountain, please accept the villain's worship."

After speaking, he took the middle-aged man behind him to kneel in front of Li Shen and kowtowed to thank him.

"Well, you get up, this king is also passing by here, just a gesture." Li Shen looked at the old man on the ground and nodded.

When the old man stood up, Li Shen couldn't help but be curious,

"Why are these people burning, killing and looting in your house, is it because your enemies can't do it?"

"Back to the prince, this is a long story," the old man sighed, looked back at his house, the fire had been extinguished, and said to Li Shen.

"Lord Wang, after a long journey, you might as well go to the cold house to have a cup of tea, and the villain will slowly return."

Li Shen was more curious, and after hearing the old man's words, he nodded, and said a word to lead the way.

Li Shen rode away from the house,

This courtyard covers an area of five acres, which is a relatively large house, the front yard is not on fire, and there are many blood stains on the ground, but the body should have been moved.

Li Shen turned over and dismounted, and followed the old man to the front hall, and the old man put Li Shen in the first place, ready to let the next person serve tea.

"No need, where is the place to boil water, our prince brought his own tea." Tie Niu on the side refused,

The old man knew that he was a little abrupt, how could a prince go out to eat and drink casually, so he hurriedly arranged for someone to take the guards to the backyard to boil water.

"Let's talk about it. This king is actually very curious. ”

"Alas, the villain's surname is Xie, and his name is An. It is the patriarch of this Xie Jiazhuang, because of the remnants of his ancestors, he left some ancestral property, and his life is still rich........"

Xie Zhi'an sighed and began to speak.
