Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 479
Three days later, within the county seat of Fengyi County.

After the Nine Mountain King Li Liangjin was defeated last time, the rebels in this county immediately surrendered.

It can be said that this bandit who was once powerful in Yangzhou was wiped out in the first battle, and they had no power to parry in front of Li Xiuyuan.

However, such mobs can also attack cities one after another, which can also show how weak the national power of the Great Song Kingdom is.

As long as there is a decent army and a decent commander, anyone, any army can easily wipe out the rebels.

However, even such an easy thing could not be done by the Great Song Dynasty.

"The battle situation should be calculated, how is it?" Li Xiuyuan sat in the yamen in the county seat and asked.

Holding the ledger, Wang Ping said happily at this moment: "Brother Li, this is a complete victory. Li Liangjin's total of 2 troops were defeated, among which more than [-] bandits were beheaded, and more than [-] were surrendered." , the remaining one thousand people are missing, probably fled to other places, and other money was seized,
There are countless grains. "

"How many people died in the battle?" Li Xiuyuan asked again.

"More than four hundred people died in the battle." Wang Ping said.

Li Xiuyuan nodded and said: "Such casualties are indeed acceptable. After all, no matter how bad the mob is, it is impossible to win a big victory without any damage. There are already regulations on the pension, so let's do it according to the regulations."

"Is there any news from Xing Shan?"

Wang Ping shook his head and said: "Not yet, but the news from the last scout said that the rebel army is still on the mountain and has not changed. It is estimated that there will be a stalemate for a few days."

"Send one hundred surrendering army leaders to Jintan Mountain, let them know that the Nine Mountain King has been defeated, and persuade them to surrender. If the persuasion succeeds, they will survive. If the persuasion fails, they will be beheaded immediately next time they are caught." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Did someone bring Li Liangjin's head down after shouting to the mountain?"

Wang Ping shook his head and said, "I haven't received any news about this yet."

"Really? Then wait another two days." Li Xiuyuan looked at the bloody aura outside.

After about two days, it will be scattered, and some ghosts and gods with strong morals will be able to enter the mountain.

Once ghosts and gods enter the mountain, Li Liangjin will surely die.

Now it's just a matter of lingering.

Li Xiuyuan's judgment was right, the current Li Liangjin was indeed dying.

In a cave in the mountains, Li Liangjin looked embarrassed, his hair disheveled, and his expression panicked. He curled up in a corner like a frightened bird, his lips were blue from the cold, and he didn't dare to light a fire to keep warm.

I am afraid that the fire will be conspicuous and attract enemies.

The personal guards around him have changed from a few hundred before to now only a dozen or so.

Those people didn't die in the mountains, but deliberately took the opportunity to escape, some surrendered, and some were driven away by him.

Because he found that some of the personal guards looked at him more and more wrongly.

Li Xiuyuan sent someone to yell, but he heard it clearly.

Those who take their own heads and surrender will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and released without charge.

And now Li Liangjin was not sure if the dozen or so guards and soldiers around him were tempted.

So he didn't dare to get too close to them whether he was sleeping or walking, for fear that some of his personal soldiers would cut off his head suddenly and go to Li Xiuyuan to receive the reward.

"Young Lord, the mountain seems to be very quiet today. Li Xiuyuan's people seem to have not found this mountain. I think this is a good opportunity to escape. As long as we get out of the mountain, we can take a detour and leave here by boat. If you go south, that Li Xiuyuan won't be able to find me." A relative
Bing walked in at this moment, clasped his fists and gave a salute.

He was Li Liangjin's personal soldier brought from the Marquis Mansion, and he was one of the few people he trusted.

"If we continue to stay on the mountain, we will be frozen to death if we don't starve to death. You are right, let's go quickly. Didn't Shan Taoist say that as long as we go south by boat, we will not die when we go to the sea and land on the island, and we will be able to live." Li Liangjin duo Standing up tremblingly, he hurriedly ordered three or four soldiers who he thought were more trustworthy.

Then he left the cave and walked towards the forest ahead.

"Young Lord, why did you take the three of us away, and the others were still sleeping, why didn't you call them?" the soldier asked.

Li Liangjin said: "There are so many people, and I'm not sure if they are loyal or not. Today they look at me in the wrong way. I think I have to abandon them, otherwise the road will be unsafe."

The remaining four soldiers thought it made sense and didn't say much.

Now Li Liangjin is like a soldier, thinking that anyone can harm him.

Li Xiuyuan's plan was too ruthless, otherwise how could he have fallen into such a mess with only four soldiers left beside him.

"Whoo~!"

Suddenly, at this time, the sound of an arrow sounded, and it flew out from nowhere, and a soldier was shot in the neck instantly, his eyes widened and he fell to the ground unwillingly, with blood on his face. It came out gurgling.

"No, there are enemies."

The remaining three soldiers immediately protected Li Liangjin, glanced left and right, and tightly held the waist knife with their palms.

Li Liangjin in the middle turned pale with fright, trembling all over, looking around, but he couldn't see the enemy appearing in any direction.

"See which direction the arrow is shooting from?"

"I didn't see it. There are so many vegetation in the mountains, who knows where it came from."

"Young Lord, we have been discovered now, let's go."

The three personal soldiers did not dare to stand still here, and rushed forward in a hurry to protect Li Liangjin.

But before he had gone far, suddenly a soldier stepped on something and his sole was pierced, and he fell to the ground with a wailing pain. The trap was actually an iron thorn.

"It's not right, this trap was set up not long ago, damn it, those people who left last night must have been eyeing us, and they must be ambushing around now to take our heads."

A soldier glanced at the traces beside him, and couldn't help but change his expression.

"You protect the young master and go. The iron thorns are poisonous. I feel that the soles of my feet are numb." The guard who fell on the ground gritted his teeth.

At this time, they all knew that they couldn't procrastinate, and the remaining two soldiers abandoned this man without hesitation and continued to flee with Li Liangjin.

But soon, the remaining two soldiers also died.

One was shot dead by a secret arrow again, and the other seemed to have found that person, and rushed over with a knife as if to fight him, but was stabbed and fell limply to the ground.

Li Liangjin, who had nowhere to go, was sitting slumped on the ground panting like a cow. His horrified eyes saw a short and thin man walking out of the grass with a bloody hatchet clutching his injured arm.

The grass was lifted, and he saw his last soldier lying in a pool of blood.

"You, you traitor, my king treated you well, why did you betray me?" Li Liangjin was shocked and angry when he saw the clothes on this man, it turned out to be a bandit soldier under his command.

The short and thin man took a deep breath, and said viciously: "Thief, you have the face to say that I was originally a firewood man in a certain county, but I lived a hard life. The head of the escort has learned some martial arts, and made some money by taking a few trips to the escort.

I got married and was going to ask for a daughter-in-law to live. Unexpectedly, you, a thief, suddenly led soldiers to kill you, and the head of the bodyguard was killed by you. God, the corpse is swollen. She is a pretty girl, but she has become inhuman

up.Do you still have the face to say that you treat me well? "

"Fortunately, God has eyes, the Shaodong family led troops to quell the chaos and defeated you, which gave me such a chance for revenge. I wanted to kill you yesterday, but you are too cunning, you don't let me get close to you I had no choice but to leave at night and guard you near the cave.
My martial arts skills have not fallen, I have killed all of your personal soldiers, and now you are the only one left. "

"Today I took your head and went back to the county to pay homage to my unmarried daughter-in-law."

After finishing speaking, the short and thin man strode over with the sharpened hatchet in hand.

"Don't come here, don't come here, good man, you can't kill me, I have money, as long as you don't kill me, I will give you three thousand gold, enough for you to buy a hundred concubines, and I will give you ten mansions How about it? I'm the young master, and I have plenty of money." Li Liangjin was completely flustered, and he hurriedly shouted.

"Bang~!"

But before he could speak, the short and thin man suddenly rushed over with a vigorous step, stabbed Li Liangjin's chest with a hatchet in his red eyes.

"Gurgle~!"

Li Liangjin vomited blood instantly, with a pained look on his face.

"Go to hell with your stinky money, I only want your head." The short and thin man pulled out the hatchet and stabbed him again.

The knife went straight to the heart.

"Ah~!"

Li Liangjin twitched all over his body, he had no more strength, he opened his eyes wide and looked at the sky with fear, his body was already unconscious.

The short and thin man was afraid that he would not be dead, so he stabbed three times in succession. Finally, seeing that Li Liangjin was silent, he sat beside him panting and somewhat exhausted. He couldn't help laughing out loud, wiping his tears while laughing.

After his emotions stabilized, the short and thin man looked at Li Liangjin's body and thought for a while, as if he wanted to chop off his head, but in the end he didn't do so: "I killed you to avenge me, but after all, I am with you I used to be a soldier, if I really cut off your head in exchange for a reward, would you

Someone will definitely scold me for betraying the master and seeking glory, and shame my ancestors and descendants. I will only cut off a piece of your flesh to sacrifice to my unmarried wife, so that my hatred has been satisfied. "

As he spoke, he cut off a piece of flesh from Li Liangjin's body, kicked it in his arms, and strode away with the hatchet in his hand.

Li Liangjin looked at the sky with dull, lifeless gray eyes at this moment, and his body was icy cold, and he just stayed in the mountain like this.

Perhaps he never dreamed that he would die in the hands of a Chafu.
