Li Shimin

Chapter 783 The Herd Attacks
Looking around, Qiu Shuye quickly suggested again.

"My lord, since we are wild beasts, why don't we light a fire? The wild beasts are afraid of fire, so those wild beasts dare not come down the mountain!"

"nonsense!"

Li Xuan glared at Qiu Shuye.

All the guards and tenants around looked at Qiu Shuye with strange faces.

"Your Majesty?"

Qiu Shuye was taken aback.

"These beasts are the meat of my Li family village. Since they are here, how can we scare them away?"

Li Xuan explained.

"Your Majesty wants to keep all those beasts? But, only rely on these people in the village?"

Qiu Shuye dared not believe it.

"Why can't you stay?"

Li Xuan snorted softly, "Wait for a group of scholars to stand aside and watch from afar how this king will keep those beasts that dare to come to my Lijiazhuang behind!"

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate us. Although we are scholars, we can also ride and shoot!"

Qiu Shuye said quickly.

"Also ask the king to give me weapons such as knives and guns!"

Around, a group of scholars nodded repeatedly.

"Do you know how to use muskets?"

Li Xuan glanced at these scholars, and asked quietly: "Or, can you use arrow bombs, or can you lift a horse, or can you wear armor?"

Hearing this, Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and the others couldn't help but look at each other.

"Okay, just wait and watch from behind!"

Li Xuan sneered, then stopped talking, staring at the dark mountain.

Seeing this, Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and the others had a hint of dissatisfaction in their eyes, and wanted to say something else.

However, Li Chang and a few personal guards beside him looked at them coldly, and they quickly shut up.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

In the chicken, duck and hog circle, there was even more restlessness.

"coming!"

Zheng Fu, who was at the front, had a gleam in his eyes, and then walked back.

"My lord, they are here!"

"Prepare them all for me, as long as they are not allowed to enter the poultry pen or the village, they can be shot freely!" Li Xuan ordered.

In fact, the walls of the chicken, duck and hog pens are all high concrete walls with a height of one foot, and there are spikes on the walls, so no wild animals can easily enter.

"Yes!"

Ma Xi, Zheng Fu and others responded in unison.

Immediately, he clenched the steel spear in his hand and walked in front of the team.

Everyone waited quietly.

Soon, on the hill ahead, there was a sound of intensive friction, coming towards them.

When he felt these voices approaching ten steps away from him, Li Xuan gave the order directly.

"Arrow bomb shot!"

"Light the torch and illuminate the surroundings!"

"Archers free to shoot and kill!"

"Horse thorn!"

……"Whizzing……"

"Boom... Boom..."

As flames flashed across the surroundings, flames splashed all over the hillside ahead.

A scream came out along with the roar.

At the same time, a handful of torches were thrown forward, and everyone in the Li family village could see the scene on the hillside clearly.

There are at least two hundred gray wolves densely packed.

On the side, there are four fierce tigers, more than 20 black-faced men, two blind bears, more than a dozen big black cats, and even a large herd of antelopes...

Seeing these, Li Xuan couldn't help being stunned.

What are the antelopes here for?
However, at this time, he couldn't allow him to think too much.

As soon as the bomb exploded and the torch was lit, stimulated by the smell of blood, the whole herd immediately became irritable, and rushed towards Li Xuan and the others.

Li Xuan also directly picked up a steel spear and walked to the front.

"Kill, with so much meat, this year's festival, everyone in the village can improve their meat!"

"Don't worry, my lord, none of these beasts can escape!"

Zheng Fu laughed loudly.

Surrounded by the guards, there was no tension at all.

Basically, every personal guard is wearing armor, holding steel knives and steel lances, even if they are one-on-one with these animals, they are not afraid at all, not to mention that there are hundreds of farmers behind them holding bows and arrows. Strong archery.

As for the arrow bomb, after firing a round, it stopped and did not continue.

However, when some black bears, tigers, and black-faced men run around, they will step on some bombs buried in the ground, and they will explode twice from time to time.

This made Li Xuan, Ma Xi and everyone in the Li family village feel distressed.

There were only four to five hundred mountain animals in total, and dozens of them ran away early because they saw that the momentum was wrong.

Therefore, this battle is somewhat easy.

It took less than a quarter of an hour from Li Xuan's order to attack to the stop.

The entire hillside was filled with blood and dead bodies.

Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and other scholars behind him were stunned.

Although these were animals in the mountains, it was the first time these scholars had seen such a tragic yet relaxing scene.

Of course, they didn't expect that the Jin prince's personal guards and those farmers who were so kind to them on weekdays would have such a murderous side.

"Leave 100 people to look at these animal carcasses, and take out these animal carcasses tomorrow, and the rest of the people go back to rest!"

After finishing the matter, Li Xuan gave an order and took Li Chang and others back.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

All the people responded in unison.

Around the chicken, duck and hog ring, there is also a special place for farmers to sleep at night, and it is still two floors.

So 100 people just light some torches on the hillside at night and stay inside and watch.

And leaving 100 people behind, Li Xuan also had the situation to prevent those beasts from sneaking back.

However, overnight, no one bothered Li Xuan again.

The next day.

After breakfast, Li Xuan went to the chicken, duck and pig pen.

However, what Li Xuan didn't expect was that Li Chenglu had brought those twenty puppies down the hillside early.

However, perhaps feeling the danger, the twenty puppies kept barking below, but they didn't dare to run up the hillside.

Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and other scholars also gathered around, watching the tragic situation on the hillside.

Ma Xi, Zheng Fu and the others, along with a group of guards and farmers, were also slowly dragging the dead animals down the hillside.

"Your Majesty!"

"I have seen the king!"

"Meet Aye!"

"How's it going?"

Li Xuan asked.

Zheng Fu and Ma Xi hurriedly replied: "My lord, these beasts stepped on the ice yesterday, only triggering more than a dozen bombs, and now there are still hundreds of bombs buried on it!"

"If that's the case, then just find a few iron hooks and drop these animal carcasses directly. If they are blown up, they will be blown up. If they are not blown up, they will be lucky!"

Li Xuan said directly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

With Li Xuan's order, Zheng Fu, Ma Xi and others gained confidence.

Directly ask a group of guards and farmers to find a few iron hooks, tie them to ropes, and throw them on the wild beasts on the hillside, there is a crisp sound of tinkling.

Then, it slid down a certain distance, hooked the wound or the head of the mouth, and pulled hard.

A frozen and stiff wolf, or a black-faced man, or a wild deer, slid down the hillside.
