Chapter 79

(Seeking red tickets, asking for collection)

"Li Jing has fled to Dongdu, what shall we do?"

Chen Que'er urged his mount to stick to Li Xian's big black horse and asked.

Li Xiandao: "I promised He Ruozhongshan to help him to avenge him, but it's hard to chase after the big man's words, so let's look for He Ruozhongshan first, and after we find him, we will think about how to help him avenge him. Zhang Jin said that I know this person, and it is said that his favorite thing is to eat people's hearts? I just don't know, gouged out his heart and stuffed it into his own mouth, he couldn't swallow it."

Chen Que'er said: "I don't know this person very well. When my elder brother and I were domineering on the ground in Hedong, I had never heard of such a number one person. I don't know why he appeared suddenly. It is said that he is occupying Juluze. There are more than ten thousand people. But in my opinion, they are just a bunch of mobs."

He thought for a while and said: "It's Sun Anzu who is quite famous. It is said that when the Great Sui Dynasty destroyed Nanchen, he was a school lieutenant and worked under the commander Gao Ying. It seems that he was coveted for the military merits of General Nanchen. In a fit of anger, he took off his official clothes and went home to do some small business. It's just that this person is quite righteous, so he has some popularity in the world. Hearing that he was framed by the county magistrate for stealing a sheep, he was furious I slaughtered the county magistrate and raised the flag to rebel, and simply named himself a sheep man, but his subordinates all called him a general."

Li Xian knew this person, and Sun Anzu could be said to be one of the first people who raised the anti-flag at the end of the Sui Dynasty.Although his reputation is not as great as that of Shandong Zhishilang Wang Bo, it is worth mentioning that without him, perhaps Dou Jiande's troubles would have been more twists and turns later.It was under the banner of avenging Sun Anzu that Dou Jiande recruited most of Sun Anzu's subordinates and gradually gained a firm foothold in Gaojibo.

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw bursts of thick smoke rising in front of them.This place is already more than three hundred miles away from Youzhou, and not too far away from Gaojibo.He Ruozhongshan said that if he entered the customs, he would wait for them in a place called Maoshan Village, about a hundred miles away from Gaojibo.Li Xian and the others inquired all the way, and they knew that it was not dozens of miles away from Maoshan Village.

"Go! Let's see what's going on ahead."

Li Xian patted the big black horse's buttocks, and rushed out first.The rest of the crowd clapped their horses and followed closely behind Li Xian. They climbed up a high slope and looked up. They saw a small village about three miles ahead, and the thick smoke was coming out of the village.From afar, one could see flickering figures in the village, and it was extremely noisy. From such a distance, one could faintly hear the crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs.

"It looks like bandits are attacking that village."

Tie Liaolang set up the awning and looked forward, then turned his head and said to Li Xian.

How come the world is in such a mess after only seven years?

Although Li Xian knew some of the history of this era, he was not very clear about it.In his impression, the Sui riots and bandits seemed to have gradually erupted after Yang Guang conquered Goguryeo for the first time.He didn't expect that now that the Sui Dynasty is powerful and the ruling power of the government is still stable, how could there be bandits daring to blatantly attack the village in broad daylight.

"The number of people is not large, it should not exceed 300 people."

Chao Qiuge took a closer look and said, "Do you want to go over and have a look?"

Chen Que'er said: "Could it be... He Ruozhongshan's people?"

Li Xian urged the horse to charge forward, and he was already more than ten meters away when the voice came out: "I never heard that Sun Anzu's people ruined the common people!"

The crowd no longer hesitated, and urged their horses to follow behind Li Xian and rushed over.

The closer you got to the village, the clearer the screams in the village became.Men, women, young and old, I don't know how many people cried for help.A few hundred meters away, many bandits could already be seen wielding sticks and crude spears, beating and killing villagers.The costumes of those gangsters are very messy, but each of them wraps a piece of gray cloth on their heads as a symbol of identifying each other.The weapons in their hands are also messy, and even a decent horizontal knife is rarely seen.A villager rushed out from the street to call for help, but was stabbed to death by a rough spear with an iron tip attached to a white wax pole after being chased by the bandits.

There was a bandit standing on the dirt wall at the edge of the village, holding up a snatched baby who was still in its infancy, laughing wildly and throwing it down hard.In an instant, the baby's crying stopped abruptly.The gangster didn't seem to have enough fun, picked up the baby's body with a spear and waved it in the sky, laughing while spinning.

Suddenly, he saw a small number of cavalry coming quickly from a distance.He froze for a moment, then shouted loudly: "There are officers and soldiers!"

Because they were on their way, Li Xian and the others didn't put on their armor.The reason why the bandits shouted with certainty that there are officers and soldiers is because there are very few horses among the bandits.Especially those people were riding tall horses, and there were hardly a dozen decent war horses in the bandit dens, large and small, nearby.Even the people's own angry horses or mules were mostly confiscated by the government to transport supplies to Liaodong.War horses are scarce in the Central Plains.

Even though Moyanggong, who occupied Gaojibo a while ago, claimed to have tens of thousands of men, but there were not even 100 cavalry, and most of them were poor horses and mules who couldn't run fast.So the gangster was sure that those guys who came on horseback were definitely not their own.

"They have no fighting power at all!"

Iron Wolf said loudly: "There is no security arrangement, let alone scout rangers! Their weapons are in a mess, and none of them are even wearing leather armor."

Li Xian hummed and shouted: "Kill it!"

Everyone responded with a shout, and took out the Liannu presented by Luo Yi one after another.

Li Xian knew that such a gangster had no combat power at all, let alone something terrifying.In the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were countless rebels, large and small, but almost no one had won the battle with the official army of the Sui Dynasty in the early days.No matter how many such bandits there are, they won't make a difference.For example, a piece of history that Li Xian knew, the old general Zhang Xutuo, the governor of Qi County, once had the feat of deterring [-] rioters with four people.In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, it was not uncommon for hundreds of officers and soldiers to defeat tens of thousands of bandits.

Of course, even Zhang Xutuo himself still doesn't know that he will have such a crazy move two years later.

Following the loud cry of the bandit who slaughtered the baby, the village fell silent for a while, and then chaos erupted.Some of the bandits shouted to escape, while the villagers shouted for help as if they saw hope.

A gangster who looked like a leader climbed up the earthen wall, looked towards Li Xian and the others, and then shouted: "What the hell are you afraid of! There are not many of them! Archers, archers, where the hell are they? Let it go! Let the arrows go! Let the arrows go!"

This person seemed to be quite intimidating. After he yelled, the rioters calmed down a little. A dozen archers who were not even equipped with the cheapest padded armor ran over, drew their homemade bamboo bows and put on rough bows. The feather arrow shot towards Li Xian and the others.The scattered feather arrows looked so ridiculous, not to mention their accuracy.

Of the dozen or so arrows, most of them were blown by the wind and shot into the air. Only one arrow flew in front of Li Xian. Li Xian turned the soft feather arrow away past.Looking at the distance, he resisted not ordering.

"These idiots!"

Chao Qiuge scolded with a smile: "The arrows start shooting a hundred paces away, and those broken things in their hands can also be called bows? I really laughed out my teeth!"

It's no wonder that Chao Qiuge looked down on those bandits. The bamboo bows in their hands were not strong enough. Even if the feather arrows could barely fly crookedly for a hundred steps, they had already lost their strength.Even if Li Xian didn't dodge just now, I'm afraid that the feather arrow would have cut him through an inconspicuous hole at most.

"Cum! Come on! You fucking haven't had enough to eat or something!"

The bandit leader shouted, grabbed a bamboo bow, put an arrow on it and shot it at Li Xian, but his shooting skills were even more unreliable, the arrow wobbled like a paper airplane It slanted far away, and fell down without even flying fifty steps.

"Gather all the gods, the cavalry are most afraid of spears, stab them to death!"

Seeing that the feather arrows were ineffective, the bandit leader yelled at his men to get out of battle.Li Xian and the others didn't expect that the bandits actually knew a little bit about how to use soldiers, but it was obvious that it was too late to think of forming a spear array to stop the cavalry at a distance of fifty paces.Moreover, even if they could line up, they couldn't stop Li Xian and his eighteen murderous and sturdy knights.

"Crossbow, shoot!"

Li Xian shouted loudly, and then shot out the first feather arrow.He doesn't have a continuous crossbow, but he has a two-stone hard bow made by Sui Jinggong.It stands to reason that Li Xian can kill people with arrows from 120 steps away. The reason why he waited until [-] steps away to shoot the first arrow is because his arrow represents the signal of massacre.

The bandit leader who was still waving his arms only felt his eyes go dark, without any reaction, a feathered arrow hit his eye socket, the arrow shattered an eyeball with a pop, and pierced deeply into his brain.His body stiffened on the dirt wall for a moment, and then he slowly fell backwards.

Following Li Xian's first arrow, the horse thieves rushing towards Li Xian in the shape of a swallow tail pulled the triggers of their crossbows one after another.In the sound of chug chug, countless crossbow arrows poured down in an instant.

In front of the refined Liannu of the Sui Dynasty, those bandits without protective gear were like straw targets.The thin clothes on their bodies couldn't stop the sharp crossbow arrows at all, and the spear array they had formed was immediately torn off one layer.The bandits in the first two rows fell down like weeds cut by a scythe, and the wailing of those shot by the arrows was infinitely enlarged and resounded through the sky.

In just one round of salvo, at least thirty or forty bandits were knocked to the ground.The unformed gun array was destroyed, and the gangsters behind immediately exploded.

"They have Liannu! They are soldiers from the Sui government!"

When the word Fubing was mentioned, those gangsters were as frightened as if they saw a ghost.Most of the people were frightened by the irresponsible shout of their companions, and immediately
