Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 66 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

As soon as he got closer, Li Shan heard Zhu Wei's angry shout.

"Pig large intestine, try it if you have the guts!"

Is it a name or a nickname? The corners of Li Shan's mouth twitched, and Zhu Ba beside him had already vomited... After killing the pigs, he was the one who took care of the offal.

A young man next to him whispered, "Zhu Chang, it is said that he used to be a bandit and lived in the village opposite the Jing River. He was ruthless and had a bad reputation, so..."

Li Shan nodded, took a few steps forward, found a good place to look carefully, and couldn't help frowning.

Zhu Wei stood at the entrance of the alley, with messy wooden stakes in front of him, and a dozen young men holding long sticks behind him.

The fat pig with big intestines on the opposite side is surrounded by a dozen big men, and a large group of people are standing behind them, most of them are holding weapons in their hands, and behind them... a large area densely packed, Li Shan saw A little dazzled.

"About a thousand people." Guo Pu, who didn't know when he appeared, said in a low voice: "Less than a hundred people in front are all strong and healthy, and they look like they have seen blood. The hundreds of people behind are sallow and emaciated, but they are just refugees."

Li Shan took a closer look. Not only was his complexion yellow and thin, but there were also many children, women and children, and some of them could not stand still and could only sit on the ground.

While thinking about it, Li Shan suddenly became excited, "No, no."

"what happened?"

"If refugees come to invade, it's reasonable." Li Shan said slowly: "But the pig's intestines carry hundreds of people, they are strong and strong, and they hold weapons..."

Guo Pu blurted out, "They came here specifically to find Zhujiagou!"

"It's not Zhujiagou." Li Shan's expression turned ugly, "It's Dongshan Temple."

The refugees rebelled, just to survive, but the bandits came to seek money... Zhu Dachang lived on the other side of the Jing River, and he must have heard that Dongshan Temple was very profitable in Dongshi, so he brought the bandits to the door.

"Da Lang, what should we do?" Zhu Ba gritted his teeth, "I have already transferred someone here, so I'm not afraid I won't be able to beat him!"

"If you're not afraid of thieves stealing, you're afraid of thieves thinking about you." Li Shan sighed.

"Your Majesty doesn't want to leave future troubles?" Guo Pu frowned and said, "There are less than two hundred young people in the village. If we attack together, it will not be difficult to break through, but I want to make sure that no one is missed..."

Li Shan squinted his eyes and listened to Zhu Dachang's loud threats, Zhu Wei yelled without fear, the bandits behind were a little impatient, and the refugees could faintly hear crying.

"Uncle Guo, do you hear that it's so feasible?" Li Shan said a few words quickly in a low voice.

After a moment of silence, Guo Pu nodded slightly, added a few words, and Zhu Ba trotted over to Zhu Wei's ear.

"Does it work?"

When the matter came to an end, Li Shan was a little uneasy, but Guo Pu comforted him: "If you want to get it done once and for all, you can try it."

After speaking, Guo Pu quietly backed away, and his figure disappeared into the alley.

"One thousand strings?"

"One thousand guan, red mouth and white teeth, never regret it!" Zhu Wei said loudly: "But don't disturb the village, don't disturb the temple."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that Zen Master Wuchao, the abbot of Dongshan Temple, is well-known in Chang'an, and once he sues..."

"So much nonsense!" Zhu Dachang interrupted impatiently, thinking that after taking the money, he would flee with his brothers up the mountain, and if he couldn't do it, he would go to Hebei, afraid of being arrested by the government?
Zhu Wei raised a few more conditions in a long-winded manner. Guo Pu still needs to make arrangements later, so he needs to buy time.

"Have you ever seen a thousand coins?"

"Do you know how much you weigh?"

"Go to the temple and move by yourself."

Li Shan was a little worried that the other party might not be fooled by such a simple strategy.

But unexpectedly, Zhu Dachang agreed after a few discussions with the people around him, and dozens of big men slowly stepped forward with weapons in hand.

Why is pig intestine willing to enter the urn?
The reason is simple. Zhujiagou is a small village with no more than 200 households and at most [-] young and strong people. Zhu Dachang brought nearly a hundred bandits, all armed with weapons and bows and arrows.

After all, force decides everything, and force gave Zhu Dachang the courage to enter the village.

And Li Shan did not guess wrong, Zhu Dachang came for Dongshan Temple. I have heard that Dongshan Temple has made a lot of money in Dongshi, and I have been coveting it for a long time. This time it is a rare opportunity, so I naturally want to make a profit. of.

Li Shan backed away slowly, avoiding in the alley next door, and found a high place to watch, thinking that he didn't know what Guo Pu was preparing for.

The logs at the entrance of the alley had been removed, Zhu Wei led the villagers back, and Zhu Dachang led his men forward vigilantly.

Sniffing, the pig's large intestine smelled a smell of meat, and couldn't help cursing, mother is so rich, how can a thousand pens be enough? !

Zhu Wei had already disappeared into the alley, Zhu Dachang quickened his pace, and at this moment, hurried footsteps sounded.

The neat queue blocked the entrance of the alley, and what appeared in front of Zhu Dachang's eyes were five sharp spear points, and then one after another, the spears came out one after another. come slowly.

So many spears?
Zhu Dachang's heart trembled. Before he could issue orders, there were several muffled sounds behind him, and the not-so-short wall was forcibly knocked down. Guo Pu in armor jumped into the alley with a long knife in his hand, and three or four people around him. Shouting and wailing, he fell to the ground.

Li Shan at the top was a little anxious. Guo Pu was the personal guard of the Li family, and he was always cautious in his actions. Why was he taking such a risk?

But then, a few young men also wearing armor jumped over the fallen wall bricks and rushed into the alley with long knives in their hands, completely disrupting the bandits.

There were two more muffled sounds, and two more walls were knocked down. The young and strong who rushed out quickly blocked the prepared giant logs obliquely in the alley, completely blocking the opponent's retreat.

Li Shan muttered, "Fortunately, I borrowed a few more armors from Brother Demou."

In the era of cold weapons, the people will not ban knives, guns and sticks, or even bows, but they will definitely ban armor.

An ordinary soldier puts on iron armor, as long as he does not lose his courage, he becomes an elite.

The shouts of killing in the alley were loud, and the smell of blood gradually became stronger. Li Shan glared at the few followers around him, "Don't help me yet."

"but……"

"It's very safe here, if you don't go, maybe there will be an extra family in the house tomorrow!"

The other seven people only looked at Zhu Ba. After hesitating for a while, the latter drew his sword and jumped down, kicked open the door of the house. They only needed to go around twice to pass. Everyone followed Zhu Ba and rushed into the alley excitedly.

The pig's large intestine held the knife from the opposite side, and the tiger's mouth was numb, but why is there only half of the knife body left?

Pig Dachang is sad and resentful, this is unreasonable!
So bullying!
Can't beat at all!
The weapons in the hands of my group are naturally sharp weapons against civilians, that's why Zhu Dachang dared to bring less than a hundred men into the village, but he didn't expect to be hit head-on.

Li Kai and other children from Prince Qin's residence sent high-quality ordnance, and the ordnance that Zhu Wei hid in Dongshan Temple was of better quality, and when two knives collided, it was often the knife of the bandit who broke the hole or broke directly.

Even when the bandit slashed at the soldier with a knife, the other party suffered from pain but was actually safe and sound.

Not to mention that Zhu Wei has often trained the young men in the village over the past few days, and Guo Pu has specially used military methods to restrain them in the past ten days, so that the young men with less than 200 people faintly look like elites in the army.

The number of people is about the same, and the weapons are too different. One side is only seeking money, while the other side is protecting the hometown.

Moreover, there was still intentional calculation and unintentional calculation, the two ends were blocked, and there were military generals like Guo Pu in the middle of the battle.

Zhu Dachang was a smart man, he abandoned his weapon early and knelt on the ground, squinting at the past, there were more than a dozen people who refused to surrender... Surrounded by more than 30 spears, they were all poked to the ground after a while.

"You are Zhu Chang?"

Looking up and seeing a young man with a plain expression, Zhu Dachang froze for a moment. The person who came was wearing bright armor and took off his helmet. He had a beautiful face and didn't care about the blood on his feet.

Before he could speak, Li Shan said with great interest: "The government has not yet provided disaster relief, but the Hedong and Guannei roads were looted by the Turks, and there were refugees in Jingzhao. This person coerced the refugees and took advantage of the chaos to go directly to Dongshan Temple."

"Uncle Qi, this person not only has some courage, but also some strategies."

Zhu Dachang was overjoyed, and kowtowed loudly again, "The villain is willing to sell himself as a slave, please sir..."

"What do you want?" Li Shan looked at the corpses around him boredly, "Uncle Guo, how about the casualties?"

"Two people were seriously injured, and more than [-] people were slightly injured."

Li Shan snorted, "Did the bandits miss something?"

"I counted them, 92 people, 36 dead, 52 injured, and the rest knelt down and abandoned their weapons."

Carrying the door panel of a seriously injured person just passing by, orthopedic surgeon Li Shan gave up after only two glances, one was about to die, and the other... Even in the previous life, it took several department directors to work together to save him.

With a dark face, Zhu Wei kicked the pig's intestines over and couldn't let go of his hatred, so he picked up the spear and slammed it down.

"Uncle Qi." Li Shan said indifferently, "Is it just a beating?"

Guo Pu faintly heard the implication, and looked at Li Shan in surprise. He had already discovered that this young man had complicated emotions about human life, and he neither cared nor cared.

It seems that he is very used to blood, and does not put life and death in his eyes, but he will always help when he sees the wounded.

Zhu Wei hesitated, "Da Lang, it's unknown who killed the prisoners."

"Are there any prisoners?" Li Shan stared into Zhu Wei's eyes, "Dongshan Temple has a lot of money, so it's inevitable that others will covet it in the future. It just so happens that a chicken bumps into it, so naturally we want to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
