Chapter 575: Cao Rong Escapes
Cao Rong asked in a panic: "What should I do now, Yang Zhi is not a good person?"
Li Cheng groaned: "If you kill Ju Yanwu and say that it can't be done, Yang Zhi is in the bazaar below, so he has to lock Ju Yanwu up first, and the old disease of drinking too much will recur to the outside world, and wait for the Canglang Camp to leave before doing it." I'm not going to leave for the time being, I'll help you settle everything before leaving. β
Cao Rong thanked him: "Li Daxia is the best to do this, and the official is grateful." β
However, the two of them were still relieved, Li Cheng still used means to wake up Ju Yanwu, and asked Ju Yanwu and Yang Zhi what they said, Ju Yanwu's mind was groggy and he didn't remember what was going on at all; As for the silver ticket, it is even simpler, Ju Yanwu said that Yang Zhi asked for help to buy wine and other items in Pingyu Village, and there are some subsidies.
Li Cheng and Cao Rong naturally didn't believe it, but the two really didn't dare to punish Ju Yanwu, there were still many people in the village who listened to Ju Yanwu's words, in case someone leaked the news, Cao Rong believed that Yang Zhi would immediately attack and interrogate; Li Cheng thought about it, and still arranged for his own people to keep an eye on Yang Zhi's movements to see if Yang Zhi had any abnormal reactions. As soon as the people arranged by Li Cheng came out of the village, they were targeted by Chen Guang, but Chen Guang was wearing the clothes of ordinary soldiers, and he was drinking at a stall with several other people.
Chen Guang saw that those people were not dressed as soldiers, and at first thought that they were the leaders of Cao Rong's subordinates, but when he found that the direction of several people was Yue Fei's camp, Chen Guang understood that some people were worried; Chen Guang and the others finished drinking, staggered back to the camp, and told Yang Zhiyi about the matter, Yang Zhi agreed with Chen Guang's judgment, and mixed with Gongsun Sheng in the patrol team and quietly went out of the village, and arrested two people back. Yang Zhi was not afraid that Cao Rong would know, so he directly regarded the two as Wang Bolong's spies, and the two arrested people listened to it and hurriedly distinguished, saying that they were Cao Rong's guests and followed Li Cheng.
Yang Zhi made it clear that it was Li Cheng, the king of heaven, and immediately arrested the 300 officers and soldiers in the bazaar, and sent an officer from Pingyu Village back to inform Cao Rong that Li Cheng was a fellow party of the robbers in Yinmachuan, and asked Cao Rong to tie up Li Cheng and send him down the mountain; if he did not do so in half an hour, Yang Zhi would think that Cao Rong had been kidnapped by Li Cheng and would order an attack on the village. Cao Rong could only ask Yu Licheng, and Li Cheng said helplessly: "The best policy is that you and I will hijack the soldiers in the village to rebel and join the gang in Yinmachuan; the middle policy is to take advantage of Yang Zhi's waiting, and we will flee together; the next policy, I will leave, and you and Yang Zhi will go to a lawsuit." β
Cao Rong pondered: "Let's leave together, instigating the soldiers below to rebel, we need external forces, and the brigade behind the Canglang camp is coming, we will only be more embarrassed; β
Li Cheng was full of contempt for Cao Rong, Yang Zhi was now just a guess without evidence, but Cao Rong was completely at a disadvantage because he didn't dare to gamble, and he didn't even dare to defend the village; Li Cheng immediately said: "In this case, you and I might as well flee first, and you leave a letter that Yang Zhi forced to leave, so that you can deal with it in the future; with Yang Zhi's status in the rivers and lakes, as long as you are not there, there is no tangible evidence, and you will not do anything to your family." β
Cao Rong directly left a letter, and Li Cheng rode out of the Houzhai Gate with more than 20 people and ran away; the soldiers released Ju Yanwu, and Ju Yanwu immediately ordered to open the gate and let Yang Zhi and others enter the village. Under the coercion of Yang Zhi, Ju Yanwu could only send a letter to the Hejian Mansion, saying that Cao Rong, the governor of Pingyu Village, colluded with the thieves of Yumachuan, and fled after the matter was revealed, and asked the state government to send another Zhizhai. Yang Zhi made a supporting document, including the confessions of Li Cheng's two subordinates, and sent them to Hejian Mansion together.
At Cao Rong's residence, Yang Zhi only counted the gold and silver property, and originally only wanted to make superficial articles, but he did not expect to have an unexpected gain; after all, Cao Rong was born as a Jinshi, and he worked carefully, and kept some key letters over the years, which should have been intended to play a role at some time in the future, but he left in a hurry at night, and these letters were placed in the box and not taken away.
Yang Zhi asked Gongsun Sheng to look for evidence of Cao Rong's collusion with Wang Bolong, and Gongsun Sheng found three letters from Zeng Rong, one was Zeng Rong's letter, telling Cao Rong that a guest was passing by, and asked Cao Rong to restrain the soldiers in the village not to come out; one was that Zeng Rong and Cao Rong discussed selling grain, because it was related to profit sharing, Zeng Rong directly wrote Wang Bolong's name; the third was that Zeng Rong told Cao Rong a piece of news that someone was buying craftsmen and asked Cao Rong to look for him among the displaced people.
Zhan Du came earlier than Yang Zhi imagined, and arrived at Pingyu Village early the next morning, it should be Zhan Du who set off when he learned that his spies were arrested; Zhan Du learned that such a big thing happened in Pinglu Village, and his face was blue, but Yang Zhi had evidence and material evidence, and Zhan Du had no choice but to urge Yang Zhi to march into the army, saying that he would deal with the affairs of Pinglu Village. Yang Zhi took the opportunity to ask for all the prisoners in Pingyu Village, saying that he wanted them to carry the supplies, but Zhan Du didn't have the heart to bother these gods, and asked Yang Zhi to go through the formalities directly to take the people away.
Gongsun Sheng saw Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo, and they were really pointed, and their state was almost crazy, if they were not treated, even if they were not killed, they would only be ten days and half a month's life. Gongsun Sheng helped Wei Dingguo and the two solve the acupoint, and the two were like a serious illness, but they intermittently told Gongsun Sheng that the Luo family was destroyed by the mirage mansion, Luo Taiyi and the twelve wilheads were all killed in battle, Wuke died in Jizhou, and Jinke and Tuke were killed in Yinmachuan, and the two of them were caught by Wang Bolong and Li Cheng.
Unexpectedly, the other party's power was so huge, Yang Zhi arranged for someone to send Wei Dingguo and the two to An Daoquan in the post-retirement army, and still arranged for the army to be dispatched as scheduled, Yue Fei's vanguard and Wang Bolong encountered in the southeast of Qingshigou, and the two sides lined up against each other. Wang Bolong arranged two hundred cavalry charges on the left and right flanks, with five hundred main forces on the front, and Yue Fei arranged pikemen and forty divine arm bows on the front, fifty horsemen on each side plus thirty divine arm bows, and three hundred javelinmen with one hundred on one side.
Waiting for Wang Bolong's cavalry to approach, first shot with a long-distance divine arm bow, the density of the cavalry was here, and more than 70 horsemen were shot down on three sides; Wang Bolong didn't care, the divine arm bow was a magic weapon for the Great Song infantry army to deal with the cavalry, such casualties were acceptable, but seeing 300 javelins flying up in the Song army, stabbing almost 200 people to death at once, Wang Bolong's face changed greatly.
Wang Bolong saw the result in an instant, the opponent's cavalry infantry is actually a blocking effect, as long as the face of his own charge can support one or two rounds, the javelin and the god arm bow will have the next shot and throw, the lethality at close range is greater, even if Wang Bolong personally kills and destroys the other party, his own thousand horsemen are almost exhausted, if they are entangled, when the cavalry of the Canglang battalion arrives, I am afraid that there is no hope of escape, and the loss of this team, the cottage of Yinmachuan is less than 500 people, and there is no ability to defend it at allγ
