The two entered the palace to explain. Emperor Beiwu seemed to calm down and felt that he was indeed a little too impulsive. His eyes darkened and he said, "Princess Chuanlie enters the palace."
"Your Majesty, Princess Lie went to Heifeng Village with the prince." Eunuch Li had already received the gossip.
"So soon? King Lie has already set off to suppress the bandits?" Emperor Beiwu looked ugly. He didn't expect Murong Xiao to be so active in doing things. He didn't know whether to praise him or scold him.
Li Eunuch said: "Yes, we have probably arrived at Heifeng Village by now."
Emperor Beiwu slapped the table angrily, "What nonsense, Princess Lie is following a woman to suppress bandits? Call her back quickly."
"Wang Lin, go."
Wang Lin's eyes darkened slightly, and he cupped his hands and said, "I obey your order."
After leaving the palace, he and his men pursued him non-stop.
But I didn't expect that Murong Xiao and the others were very fast. He was leading the Third Division of troops, the powerful elite troops he led.
The soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and the horses are fast and whipped.
It just so happens that everyone has been resting for more than half a year, and their hands are itchy. It is enjoyable to have the opportunity to practice fighting bandits.
Murong Xiao, Feng Jian, and Feng Mingwei took the lead on horseback, with incredible speed.
It took less than half a day to reach Heifeng Village.
Heifeng Village had long received the news that the imperial court was going to suppress the bandits, and they hurriedly made preparations in advance. However, they did not expect that the imperial troops and horses were so fast. They had no choice but to attack without being fully prepared. Heifeng Village set up a trap halfway.
Ambush.
So the fight started halfway, and the war was about to break out. There was no turning back when the bow was fired, and there was no reason to take it back.
"I didn't expect that they were really a group of ruthless bandits?!" Feng Mingwei couldn't help but be amazed when she saw the capabilities of Black Wind Village.
Compared with ordinary bandits, they can be said to be kings among kings. No wonder they are so arrogant and arrogant, even daring to rob the imperial tribute.
"Because they are very special. They were once bandits and were later incorporated into military camps. Now most of them are retired veterans from the imperial court. They have practical experience. They can be said to be field soldiers raised by the imperial court." Feng Jian said with a smile.
This is the reason why Emperor Beiwu never got rid of Heifeng Village. He has the same attitude towards Heifeng Village and the Feng family. He feels that there is no need to kill them all. When the court needs them, these people will be the most deadly enemies of Northern Qi.
.
Neither he nor Murong Xiao was panicked at all.
The soldiers of the Third Division Army were all in a state of solemnity and were very calm.
No matter how powerful the bandit is, he cannot be a match for the elite soldiers of the imperial court, not to mention that this is not the time when the heroes of Liangshan are the hegemons.
Although the leader of Heifeng Village is proficient in the art of war, he knows how to attack the east and attack the west and use the art of war to fight.
But there are two of them here who know the art of war.
Murong Xiao and Feng Jian were both outstanding figures on the battlefield in the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Those sent to suppress bandits are overqualified and underutilized.
The old creditor He was obviously old in front of them. When he saw the enemy attacking the mountain, he had no choice but to take action personally, "Anyone who dares to attack our Black Wind Village will die!"
An old man rushed down from the top of the mountain. He was holding two iron and silver hammers. He was rough-looking, tall and had a big white beard. However, he was physically strong, with big eyes and strong waist. He should have been stronger when he was young.
"Weier, just watch from the sidelines."
Murong Xiao and Feng Jian said in unison.
"oh……"
Feng Mingwei came to watch the battle, so she jumped onto a century-old tree to give them some wind!
See if there are any other ambush.
After taking a look at the fight below, she looked out into the woods and found someone hiding in the dark to attack.
In the woods, there were two young men of seventeen or eighteen years old, holding long bows in their hands, their eyes flashing with sharp light, pointing their arrows at Feng Jian and Murong Xiao.
Want to conduct a sneak attack?!
Feng Mingwei curled her lips and sneered silently, making a gesture, which Gao Feng understood, and then led someone to copy it from behind them.
She stood on the tree and watched leisurely. Below, the leader of the village, He Lao, was getting stronger and stronger, one against two.
The three of them were fighting in full swing.
However, the leader of the village, He Lao, was obviously getting old. Within a few rounds, he was out of breath and unable to do his job.
People in the dark take action to cover themselves when they see something happening.
"Clang!"
I just didn't expect that the arrow I sent out was intercepted by someone.
The two young men with bows and arrows subconsciously looked up, and when they saw that bright figure, their eyes were suddenly dazzled.
Feng Mingwei was sitting on the tree, her legs dangling, looking at them with a smile.
"who is she……"
She looks so beautiful, like a fairy.
Before he could take a second look, he was suddenly attacked from behind.
Sure enough it was still a bit tender.
Over there, the leader of the village, He Lao, was captured at the same time. The soldiers pushed him to the ground. He even shouted angrily: "Let go of my grandson! Otherwise, I will fight you tooth and nail!"
The king is successful and the bandits are defeated. What's the use of the prisoners shouting?
Might as well save some effort.
An iron chain trapped him tightly.
…
Wang Lin chased him all the way to Black Wind Mountain.
I saw corpses and weapons, all of them from Black Wind Village.
It can be seen that Murong Xiao and the others have already attacked the stronghold.
Wang Lin's expression changed and he hurriedly rode up, "Save someone under the sword."
Murong Xiao and the others captured a lot of bandits, including the He family, young and old, and arrested the village leader He, but they allowed one of his sons to escape.
They are asking questions.
As soon as the sharp knife was placed on the neck of the village leader He, he heard a roar from both men and horses.
"Lin'er!" When Mr. He saw his grandson, he suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and shouted excitedly.
Wang Lin dismounted and came over with a sullen expression, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has said that you should return to Beijing immediately."
Murong Xiao smiled and said, "Heifeng Stronghold has been wiped out. The tributes have been found and the people have been captured. It's time to return to Beijing."
The three soldiers behind him looked at him with eager eyes, their momentum was like a mountain.
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Wang Lin's forehead, and he did not dare to act rashly.
He never knew that Murong Xiao had such a side.
In the capital, he was suppressed everywhere, and he didn't look like the God of War at all.
He thought those were false rumors.
No, he is a completely different side on the battlefield.
Wang Lin couldn't help but watch his relatives being captured, so he actively rescued him, "Prince Lie!"
"Master Wang, I don't want to say more. You can take people into the stronghold to have a look. Black Wind Stronghold is not as simple as you think." Murong Xiao motioned for people to lead him.
Wang Lin didn't believe it. In his mind, his grandfather was a hero in the forest. Even though he was a bandit, he was still kind.
He followed the secret guard into the stronghold.
"Help...sir, help me!"
"Daddy...help me."
"Husband...save me."
Twenty women and girls were imprisoned in a cave. They were all in ragged clothes, with empty eyes, and bruises all over their bodies.
Feng Jian looked at these poor people and said with a gloomy expression: "These are innocent people captured by the He family and imprisoned in Heifeng Village for many years. You are the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture. How many people have reported that their family members are missing? Please
I must be very clear about the government’s help.”
"She was imprisoned here and suffered humiliation for many years. She has become insane and full of despair."
Wang Lin's face turned pale.
Then the secret guard took him to another cave cell.
There are a group of teenagers inside. He is also covered in injuries, and his bracelets are shackles and iron chains.
They had to do hard work all year round and were instilled with the mentality of slaves. They could no longer cry or even speak.
Wang Lin's face looked ugly. Looking at these people, he could no longer defend the He family.
Murong Xiao and Feng Jian didn't bother to pay attention to him and didn't let Feng Mingwei in, fearing that she would become angry after seeing it.
"Bring all these people back to Beijing."
In addition, the secret guard also found a lot of gold and silver treasures from the cottage, "Your Majesty, the tributes have been found, but there is no Tianshan Snow Lotus. In addition, these are only part of the jewelry, and some of them have been removed."
Maybe they wanted to transfer them all, but it was too late. Their treasure house doors were all open, so they were found at once.
Wang Lin watched these people and things passing by. He was still a little numb and his face was pale. He didn't expect that Heifeng Village had done so many things that violated national laws.
Robbery, abduction and trafficking of good women and children are just on the surface, but in private they may also be doing things like killing people and selling goods.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
"Go back to Beijing."
Murong Xiao didn't even look at him, and signaled for the people to catch the criminal and the stolen animal and take them back home.
However, the He family was his relative, so he didn't care about anything else. Instead, his eyes darkened, his fists clenched loudly, and he glanced at the Feng family brothers and sisters, "Princess Lie is a woman and has come to suppress bandits. Your Majesty already knows that.
I have been specially ordered to capture her and take her back."
Feng Mingwei and Jian looked at him coldly and said nothing.
Murong Xiao smiled and said: "Then let's go together!"
Now he is just struggling to his death, trying to negotiate terms with them to save Heifeng Village with only a few clues.
I'm afraid I'm daydreaming.
He, the young Yin of the Jingzhao Mansion, still wanted to show off his official power in front of Murong Xiao, but he was just trying to hit a stone with an egg.
Black Wind Stronghold has been destroyed.
All the money that was not transferred in time was discovered and seized.
The place where they trained secret guards was also discovered, and many children were taken back.
Everyone in the He family was put in a prison car.
Murong Xiao escorted them to Beijing and was greeted by cheers from the people.
"Good catch!"
"The bandits should have died long ago!"
"Smash you to death!"
The people were so angry that they smashed rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs together and cursed angrily.
Heifeng Village has long been notorious. In the early years, it was needed by the imperial court and it was recruited into the army.
After all these years, the dog still can't change its habit of eating shit.
The common people have long been disgusted and deeply disgusted.
Especially the common people whose relatives had been kidnapped were so furious that they cursed the bandits and thanked Murong Xiao at the same time.
The cry of "God of War, God of War".
Deafening.
This was a bit high-profile, and Feng Mingwei didn't quite get used to it.
