The last resistance of the rebels was in vain. Facing the powerful musketeers, they could not retreat at all. At this time, more soldiers and horses joined in, and it was impossible to run eastward like the horse leader. There were bursts of gunfire.
, people kept falling down, Li Yuanqing waved his hand, and hundreds of soldiers pressed forward with bayonets, launching a final crackdown on the rebels.
"Check all the corpses. Leave no one alive. I will take them all to the suburbs of the south city." Li Yuanqing said in a serious tone. Under his order, the soldiers sorted out the scattered corpses. If they encountered any survivors, they would be replaced.
One knife, in short, no one was left alive. A total of more than two hundred corpses were transported directly to the outside of the city in several large vehicles. This was not done by Li Yuanqing himself, but was entirely an order from Wang Zuogao. Wang Zuogao's intention
It is also obvious that we want to tell those rebellious parties and people that if they dare to cause trouble in northern Shanxi, they have to think about the price to pay.
After confirming that there was no longer a threat to the Ordnance Station, Li Yuanqing gathered his troops and horses and walked to the front with a serious expression. He held a book in his hand, which listed information about many people. He raised the book and said loudly: "Brothers, what is recorded above
I have arrested some family members of the rebellious party and the troublemakers. Now your task is to arrest them door to door according to the records above. Don’t let anyone go. As for the suppression of bandits in the city, other people will be responsible for it. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" The soldiers' resolute answers also explained their mood at this time. Many of these frontier soldiers were refugees in those days. After they joined the army, they not only received generous treatment, but most importantly, the government also provided benefits to their families.
They provided fields and residence. It can be said that northern Shanxi is their home, but now, someone is actually making trouble in northern Shanxi and committing such rebellious acts. If it hadn't been for the strict order from the Moon Palace to keep all troops stationary, otherwise, they would have entered the country long ago.
The city has suppressed bandits.
Li Yuanqing gave the order, and thousands of elite soldiers were like tigers coming out of the cage. They dispersed and began to arrest people according to the list. For a time, the whole Zhangbeicheng was in a panic, and many people who thought they had escaped by chance were also arrested. When the border troops were arresting people,
, the horse leader who received the response was already running out of the city protecting the holy object.
Although the city gate is now heavily guarded by soldiers and horses, the Jin Chan Sect has been operating here for many years, so it naturally has a way out of the city. Sanjia has been following Ma Touling, and he has not said a word since he met with the response staff.
Someone asked what was going on inside, and Sanjia just shook his head and said he didn't know. In fact, he knew that all the people inside were dead, and they had been completely betrayed by Ma Tou Ling, but in order to survive, Sanjia did not dare to say anything. Now the holy relic is in Ma
In the hands of the leader, it’s not the horse leader who has the final say?
The horse leader had an anxious look on his face and kept urging the people around him to hurry up, "Has Qu Hui made arrangements? We must leave the city as soon as possible. Mother, the officers and soldiers seem to have been prepared this time. If we delay, maybe we will all
Gotta finish."
A famous man next to him couldn't help but rolled his eyes, looking a little unhappy. The officers and soldiers had been on guard for a long time, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it. Maybe this was a trap, but saying such words at this time would be more damaging to morale.
Huh? Ma Tou led a group of people to escape from the place guarded by Wang Quhun, and on the other side, Lin Qingyue was not idle either. Originally, Lin Qingyue could still sit still, but when the news came that the sacred object was obtained, he no matter what
I can't sit still anymore. If I do nothing at this time and let the man named Ma take away the holy relics, will the leader have to cut Lin Qingyue into pieces afterwards?
No matter what the officers and soldiers planned, the sacred objects had to be snatched. Lin Qingyue was dressed in black and had a three-foot-long steel knife in her hand. She also became a little more violent, "Let our people go."
Waiting outside the city, as soon as the horses and crutches leave the city, they will be intercepted and killed immediately. If necessary, even if the sacred objects are destroyed, the horses and crutches cannot be allowed to take the Heavenly Fire Order back."
The Maitreya Sect is originally stronger than the Jin Chan Sect. If the Jin Chan Sect is allowed to obtain the Heavenly Fire Order and occupy the great righteousness, the situation will be difficult to predict. A large part of the Maitreya Sect recognizes the Heavenly Fire Order, so if it doesn't work, then
If it is ruined, no one can think of relying on the Sky Fire Order to make a difference. Lin Qingyue will not move, but will move as fast as thunder. In fact, he has already secretly gathered people, waiting for the movement from the Jin Chan Sect.
So once the decision was made, the people quickly rushed out of the city.
Cats have cat paths, dogs have dog paths, the Golden Chan Sect has its own internal agents, and the Maitreya Sect has been operating for many years and naturally has its own internal agents, so they are not worried about leaving the city at all. However, these internal agents are difficult to place and train.
If it is used this time, it will definitely be exposed. If it is not necessary, Lin Qingyue will never make this move.
At the south gate of Zhangbei City, chaos was already commotion. Qu Hui, who was supposed to change the defense, suddenly refused to change the defense. He also said that the person opposite was a rebel pretending to be a gangster. After the two sides argued, they started fighting. At this time, Ma Tou tied the knot.
The remaining members of the Jin Chan Sect rushed up. It was too late for the city gate defenders to shout for help. Just like that, Qu Hui suddenly attacked. Leader Ma found the opportunity to rush forward and rushed out of the south gate in one go.
After running outside the city and looking at the ancient Zhangbeicheng, the horse leader let out a long sigh of relief and finally ran out. His heart almost jumped out of his chest just now. If something went wrong on Qu Hui's side, everyone would be doomed.
Unlike Ma Touchang, Qu Hui didn't have any joy on his face. He looked at Zhang Beicheng and seemed a little reluctant to give up. As a chess piece, he lurked among Zhang Beicheng's border troops. After a long time, even he himself became a little accustomed to this identity.
Being in Zhangbei Military Camp, under the influence of what I heard and saw, I gradually began to waver in my previous beliefs. Many nights, I kept thinking that maybe this would be the end of my life. It would actually be good to be a frontier soldier in northern Shanxi.
Seemingly seeing that something was wrong with Qu Hui's expression, the horse leader snorted sarcastically: "Qu Hui, is it possible that you really want to sacrifice your life for the imperial court? Don't forget how your parents died in the first place. Hehe, let's talk about it.
, now that things have happened, do you think you can still come back?"
Qu Hui just gave Leader Ma a cold look and didn't say anything else. The fact is that once something is done, there is no turning back. As he was talking, Leader Ma had already led people to Yefeng Ridge, ten miles south of the city.
In four years, the once peaceful Yefengling has turned into a small town with more than a dozen families. These families live comfortably by setting up teahouses and bun shops along the official road leading to Zhangbei.
.
The horse leader licked his lips, his eyes showing a bit of eagerness. When he got to Yefeng Ridge, he had to make up for it. From last night to now, he didn't even have a good meal because of the Ordnance Station. He was thinking in his mind.
, couldn't help but speed up his pace, and after a while Qu Hui behind him suddenly said: "Wait a minute, take a look, is there something wrong?"
The horse leader looked in the direction of Yefeng Ridge but didn't see anything, "Is there any problem?"
Qu Hui frowned and said earnestly: "There are shops in Yefengling, which often provide rest for businessmen, especially the bun shop. There are always hot buns, so how can there be no smoke when lighting a fire? Look, there is no smoke there now.
Is there smoke? So, I suggest that we go around Yefeng Ridge and go through the path."
After listening to Qu Hui's words, Ma Tou leader felt a little nervous, but before he could make a decision, there were already some more figures on the high slope in the distance. One of them was holding a steel knife and sneered, "Do you think you are still here?"
Can you leave? You guys have been waiting here for a long time. If you want to survive, Ma, please hand over the Sky Fire Order quickly, otherwise, today next year will be your death anniversary."
"Lin Qingyue?" After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Ma Tou leader was shocked. He obviously knew Lin Qing Yue. Ma Tou Leader had not thought that people from the Maitreya Cult would take action, so he had secretly kept people on guard before.
, but I didn’t expect that Lin Qingyue could be so tolerant and didn’t take action until this moment. It seems that the young master is right. You must be careful and vigilant against Lin Qingyue at all times.
"Now that you recognize me, you should know that you don't have many chances. What do you think? Do you want to keep the Sky Fire Order, or should you be buried with the people in the city?" Lin Qingyue said and asked the person next to her.
The man winked, and soon, more people came down the high slope, and their number far exceeded that of the horse leader. The horse leader frowned, but he couldn't think of any way.
"Hmph, Lin, if you want the Sky Fire Token, come here and try. If you can snatch it away, consider your skills!" The leader of the horse pointed the steel knife forward, but put his left hand behind his back. I don't know when, his left hand
There was an extra brocade box in the bag. He quietly stuffed the brocade box into Qu Hui's arms behind him and winked. Qu Hui nodded without any trace and hid the brocade box in his arms.
Seeing that Qu Hui knew his intention, Leader Ma sneered three times and led his men towards Lin Qingyue. Lin Qingyue naturally would not give in and asked his men to stop Leader Ma. Neither party stayed behind.
With his hands, he gave up almost all his belongings for the sacred object, the Sky Fire Order. Lin Qingyue looked elegant, but his skills were not weak. As soon as he came up, he caught the horse leader and fought against him. Gradually, the horse leader was unable to hold on.
Lived.
Leader Ma was very frustrated. He had a scuffle at the ordnance station and fled from the city to the outside. In less than two hours, he was so tired that he didn't even have time to drink water. He ran into Lin Qingyue again.
, if it wasn’t for the lack of physical strength, why would Lin Qingyue be forced into this situation? Under depression, the horse leader roared violently, angrily slashed his knife, and forced Lin Qingyue back. With red eyes, he gasped coldly: "Surname
Lin, you and I are both descendants of White Lotus, and now we are fighting to the death for the Sky Fire Order, aren't you afraid that the officers and soldiers will take advantage?"
"Hey, I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but are these more important than the Sky Fire Order? You and I both know the importance of the Sky Fire Order. Okay, stop talking nonsense. If you still want to live, then give me the Sky Fire Order.
, I can swear to God that I will let you go..."
Lin Qingyue didn't lie. What he really wanted was the Sky Fire Order, not a life-and-death fight with the horse crutches here. After all, this was northern Shanxi. If it was delayed for a long time, it would be easy to be caught by the officers and soldiers. However, the horse leader
He actually smiled, and his smile was full of sarcasm. In an instant, Lin Qingyue's heart skipped a beat, and he pointed at the horse leader and said angrily: "Ma, the Sky Fire Order is not on you..."
"Hey, do you know now? It's too late. I might as well tell you that the Sky Fire Order has been taken far away from Yefeng Ridge by others at this time. Are you angry? Come and see how grandpa serves you!"
"Ma Crutch, you are looking for death." Lin Qingyue was a very proud person. She never thought that she would be tricked by Ma Crutch, whom she had always looked down on, and she immediately became angry. However, he was not a reckless man. After knowing the truth, he stepped back directly.
He took a few steps, and then shouted to the people around him: "Leave some people to kill the horse crutches, and the others will follow me to chase Qu Hui. The Sky Fire Order is on Qu Hui."
The horse leader was shocked. He finally let Qu Hui escape. How could he let Lin Qingyue catch up? If so, wouldn't all his previous efforts be wasted?
"Lin Qingyue, if you want to leave, first ask Grandpa if he agrees to the knife in his hand." He raised the knife and was about to rush forward when he saw several figures running from a distance. The figures became clearer and clearer.
It wasn't until they saw the faces of those people clearly, whether it was Ma Tou leader or Lin Qingyue, they were all stunned. The people running over were none other than Qu Hui and the others who had just taken advantage of the chaos to escape.
The horse leader was stunned for a moment, and then he roared like a furious lion: "Qu Hui, what are you doing? If you don't get along with Ma, why would you give up the Sky Fire Order to someone else?"
In the view of Ma TouLing, Qu Hui's return at this time is tantamount to handing over the Sky Fire Order to Lin Qingyue. But Qu Hui's face was distorted, he bent over and panted for a while, then laughed miserably, "The Sky Fire Order? Everyone, please stop.
The Heavenly Fire Order is meaningless. We should all think about how to survive. If you don’t believe me, just listen..."
After the words fell, everyone fell silent. At this time, a burst of noise could be heard getting closer and closer, becoming clearer and clearer, and the place where it was located began to tremble slowly. The expressions of Ma Touqiao and Lin Qingyue changed several times.
, then it turned into the color of pig liver, cavalry, only a large number of cavalry came over to achieve this effect.
The Yunfu cavalry is here, it's over, it's all over. Lin Qingyue and Ma Toujiang both have the same idea. They don't think there is any way to escape from the Yunfu cavalry.
At this time, Lin Qingyue raised her head and sighed in despair, "We have all been plotted by the man from the Moon Palace. He wants to use the Sky Fire Order to catch us all in one fell swoop."
The despair in Lin Qingyue's heart was like a burst of water that could not be controlled. At this moment, many things had become clear. Whether the Heavenly Fire Order was real or fake, one thing was certain, it was the bait thrown by the Moon Palace. Maitreya
The reason why the members of the Sect and the Jin Chan Sect were able to get out of the city smoothly was because the other party did it deliberately. If you think about it carefully, if the man from Moon Palace was really determined to trap everyone in the city, how could he escape with the ability of the northern Shanxi frontier army?
It seems like leaving the city, but in fact there is no one to rely on. In the city, if the situation is really desperate, the hundreds of thousands of people in the city can be threatened, and the officers and soldiers will be helpless after all. But outside the city, there is nothing to rely on.
No more, the officers and soldiers can fight however they want.
Unfortunately, at that time, I was so focused on the Sky Fire Order that I didn’t even notice these details.
