It would be difficult to vent their anger without killing the old thief. So the two brothers decided to go back to the foot of the mountain and kill the old thief and his family.
Sun Li was always happy with grudges. After hearing this, he agreed and said: "That's right." Then he turned around and asked his brother Sun Xin, his sister-in-law Gu Dasao and his brother-in-law to get along, and said: "You three We will protect the carriage first, and we will come after we kill Taigong Mao,"
Sun Xin, Sister-in-law Gu, and Lehe led a large group of people and horses and drove the car along the road ahead. Sun Li led Zou Yuan, Zou Run and more than 20 people under his command, and rushed up to Mao Taigong Village. At the right time, Mao Zhongyi and Mao Taigong were having a banquet and drinking in the village. They didn't know that Jie Zhen and Jie Bao had been rescued from prison, let alone that the Yamen was burned down in the city. The whole family was still immersed in the joy of offering a tiger to receive a reward. , there was no warning, until Sun Li led a group of people to rush open the door, they were still in the dark, confused, not knowing what was going on, and saw the man wielding a knife to attack others. Killing him would have scared the shit out of those servants.
Three heroes, Sun Li, Zou Yuan, and Zou Run, led their brothers into the hall with shouts of killing. At the banquet, they killed Taigong Mao, Mao Zhongyi and the whole family on the spot, leaving no one alive. He quickly sent everyone in the Mao family to Huangquan Road, then dispersed in all directions and rummaged through the Mao family. They found several boxes of gold and silver, and seven or eight horses in the backyard. Sun Li took the valuables They were all tied to the horses. They picked up a few good clothes and put on the blood-stained clothes. Before leaving, they lit a fire and burned the entire village to the ground.
After just one meal, the Mao family fell from "heaven" to hell. Sun Li led everyone on their horses, loaded them with gold and silver treasures, ran back to the road, and chased down for more than thirty miles at a stretch. There was still no trace of carriages or horses on the road. Sun Li thought about it. It was less than half an hour. No matter how fast he ran, he couldn't go this far. Why was there no sign of him? Sun Li frowned. At one point, an ominous look appeared on the sallow face. Sun Li pulled the reins and stopped the horse.
Zou Yuan came up and stopped beside Sun Li and said, "Sun Tiha, why don't you see their carriages and horses? Maybe they went astray halfway."
"No, we made a clear agreement before to walk along the main road and let me break up the rear. We all kept it in mind. If there is no trouble, we shouldn't have changed our minds halfway," Sun Li said here, seeming to realize something. He turned his horse's head and ordered everyone: "Come on, let's go back and have a look." After that, a group of people started riding back again with mixed and anxious moods.
Along the way, Sun Li looked around, wishing he could see traces of carriages and horses under the shade of the trees. However, after driving for more than ten miles, he inquired along the way, and all the passers-by and farmers said they had never seen any carriage tents. This made Sun Li a little anxious. He turned back halfway and met another man in a hurry. He was wearing a commoner and carrying a bookcase on his back. He was obviously a scholar who was going out to study.
Sun Li stepped forward, stopped his horse and asked, "Little brother, have you seen a group of chariots passing by here on the road?"
The scholar looked up and saw a man dressed as a warrior. There was a hint of murderous intent in his eager face, and there were more than 20 men with sharp weapons gathered around him. The formation reminded him of bandits who were robbing. The scholar felt a little scared in his heart, so he quickly stopped and answered Sun Li cautiously: "I haven't seen the chariot tent, but I have seen a group of military horses. They were in a hurry and didn't know what they were going to do."
Could it be that Zang Qingyun, the military commander of Dengzhou, led his troops to chase him out of the city.
Sun Li felt a sudden shock in his heart, and was stunned for a moment, thinking that Sun Xin, Sister-in-law Gu, and Lehe were guarding the two carriages. No matter how they were attacked from both sides, they would not be able to withstand the encirclement of the officers and soldiers. Oh no, this is going to happen. , Sun Li immediately thought of his wife, Mrs. Leda, who was still in the car. If she fell into the hands of Zang Qingyun, wouldn't she be humiliated?
Although Zang Qingyun is the military commander of Dengzhou City and Sun Li, Sun Xin's immediate superior, Sun Li knows very well how much this person has, as if he knows in his heart what this person has. How his character would treat a prisoner in his hands.
Some terrible thoughts flashed through his mind. Sun Li didn't have much time to think too much, so he quickly recovered his mind and asked the scholar: "Where did you see them going?"
The scholar turned around and pointed with his finger and said, "There is an intersection above. At that time, I saw them walking along the path."
"Thank you, little brother." After saying that, he whipped his horse and left. With a crash, a group of people followed closely and roared away. The scholar was left standing there in a daze, unable to recover, with a big drop on his forehead. Big drops of cold sweat oozed out, and a river had already flowed down his back.
In fact, long before Sun Li returned, the scholar watched helplessly as a group of hurried people passed by and disappeared from sight on the road at the end of the road, turning into a country road. He was making random guesses in his mind. After walking less than half a stick of incense, a large group of soldiers and horses rushed up. The leader, a man who looked like an officer, asked the same question as Sun Li. Thinking that the group was acting suspiciously, the scholar pointed the direction of the officers and soldiers. …
The words are divided into two parts. Let's say that after Sun Li took Zou Yuan, Zou Kuang's uncle and nephew and more than 20 brothers to Mao Taigong's house, Sun Xin and others were left behind with a large team of people to protect the carriage tent. They did not dare to neglect at all. Following the originally agreed route, they galloped along the avenue. However, before they had gone more than ten miles, those guys with sensitive ears heard the faint sound of rumble of horse hooves behind them. Sun Xin was leaning against the roadside. Listening carefully on the ground, it turned out to be the sound of galloping horse hooves. This large sound of horse hooves was most familiar to Sun Xin's ears. It was the horse army coming over.
Sun Xin thought to himself, if this went on, the officers and soldiers would chase him away. It was no joke at that time. Sun Xin hurriedly mounted his horse and led the chariot and men forward. When he saw there was a fork in the road, Without saying a word, Sun Xin led the large group of people and ran along the path.
But after all, this small road is not as smooth as the main road. It is very inconvenient for carriages and horses to walk. When passing through a rocky and potholed area, they only heard a screeching sound, and the axle of the carriage that Xie Zhen and Jie Bao was riding suddenly broke into two pieces. , a wheel was broken, and half of the car was tilted and stuck in the rocks. Xie Zhen Jie Bao was smashed into a ball in the car, and the pain left by the cane on his body seemed to be awakened for a moment, making the two The body was in burning pain. Just when the two of them climbed out of the carriage with the help of others, something more troublesome happened. The horse army chasing behind them also rushed up.
As soon as Sun Xin saw that there were officers and soldiers chasing him, he quickly ordered his men to pull Xie Zhen and Jie Bao onto the horse. Everyone protected Mrs. Le's carriage and fled quickly. However, on the road, no one could get out even if they tried their best. He went and was soon overtaken by the officers and soldiers behind him.
The Dengzhou horse army chased them, divided into two groups, and surrounded Sun Xin and others three levels inside and three levels outside. When Sun Xin and others saw it, they immediately drew their swords and were on guard. Looking at the officers and soldiers wandering around the perimeter.
On this rocky hill, the officers and soldiers held spears and swords in their hands and circled around Sun Xin and others. A man who looked like a general galloped and stood outside the circle and shouted: " Sun Xin, you two brothers are so brave. They dare to team up with bandits to rob death row prisoners, break into the house to kill Kong Mu, and set fire to the yamen. Just pick one of them and you can kill them all. How many heads do you have?"
The person who spoke was none other than Zang Qingyun, the commander of the Dengzhou Army and Horses. Sun Xin gritted his teeth and held both whips in his hands. He wiped away the fear on his face, sat on his horse and straightened up, and said righteously: "Don't talk nonsense. You and I know each other, and we also know the details about grandpa. If you come to see me off, we can still have a few polite words. If you come to catch me, those who are not afraid of death will come up and take my two lashes."
Zang Qingyun knew that Sun Xin was very capable, and that his brother Sun Li had the legacy of Yuchi Gong. There was no one in the Dengzhou soldiers who did not know about his brother's reputation. Naturally, Zang Qingyun did not dare to come forward to compete, and was about to turn his back and command all his men to join him. When he went up to kill the two brothers and chopped them into pieces, he subconsciously glanced at them and suddenly realized that there was no trace of Sun Li in this man.
Zang Qingyun shouted loudly: "Sun Li'an is here,"
Sun Xinyang laughed loudly and said: "How come so many of us are gone? My brother has long expected that you will send troops to chase you. He is already waiting in front of your house and has surrounded your house. As long as you listen, You have to wait to stop the carriages and horses, Zang Qingyun, just wait to go back and collect the corpses," Sun Xin knew in his heart that he had too few people and horses, and they were no match for the three hundred officers and soldiers, so he had an idea and came up with this sentence, hoping to make Zang Qingyun feel a little bit nervous. Worry, you can get away with it.
But I didn't expect that Zang Qingyun was not afraid after hearing this. Instead, he looked up to the sky and laughed, saying: "Hey, you grandson, who do you think I am, Zang Qingyun? I can be deceived by this little trick. Ever since you rushed out of the door." , I put the whole city under martial law and closed the city gates. If Sun Li is capable, he could fly in with his wings. What a joke, all the generals will be killed by me."
As soon as Zang Qingyun gave the order, the officers, soldiers, and cavalry troops immediately charged toward the chariot tent with their swords, shouting to kill, and the momentum became even more aggressive.
"Give it your all," Sun Xin shouted, swung the two whips in his hands, slapped the horse, and rushed forward. He waved the two bamboo whips, swiping the oncoming officers and soldiers left and right, beating them with blood. , flesh and blood flew everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, the body was lying on the ground.
The large group of people following Sun Xin protected the car tents at this time, and they were in close combat with the officers and soldiers. They all fought to the death in the shadow of swords and swords. Sister-in-law Gu, Lehe each stood aside, and Xie Zhen Jie Bao also endured the pain. After throwing away all the short darts in his hands, he also held a knife and fought desperately with the officers and soldiers. The brothers present were furious. However, the officers and soldiers were numerous and well-equipped. They watched as the brothers around him fell to the officers and soldiers one by one. Under the sharp blades of spears and broadswords, Sun Xin could not think of anything except fighting harder and harder. He only hoped that he could hold on for a while longer and that his brother would appear quickly with his troops. As long as his brother came, those officers and soldiers would not It would be so rampant.
Just when Sun Xin thought of this, under the command of Zang Qingyun, a small group of officers and soldiers galloped through the protection on one side of the chariot tent and went straight towards the chariot tent. In Zang Qingyun's view, there must be something important in this chariot tent. He never expected that the person sitting here was just Sun Li's wife. Those who had been rescued from the prison were already fighting in this bloody mess.
Sister-in-law Gu and Lehe were shocked when they saw the officers and soldiers fighting in front of the carriage and horse, and hurried to catch up. At this time, an officer and soldier had already cut a bloody path, rushed to the side of the carriage and horse, raised the spear in his hand and was about to shoot Poke while driving.
Sister-in-law Gu, Lehe, couldn't catch up and watched helplessly as the officer and soldier suddenly stabbed the spear down.
No,,.
Just when the desperate exclamations from both sides had not yet settled, there was only a whooshing sound through the air, and a short arrow pierced the back of the officer and soldier. With a thud, the officer and soldier fell off his horse, and his body was smashed on the ground. He got on the carriage shaft and a handful of blood burst out from his mouth, causing Mrs. Le inside to let out a scream that reached the sky.
