Chapter 81 Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes
With a carriage instead of traveling, the marching speed is more than doubled, and can go up to thirty miles in an hour.
By dawn, the convoy was less than twenty miles away from Chaona City.
It was just looted yesterday. There were not many rioters on the official road, but blood stains, abandoned bodies, and burned carriages could be seen everywhere.
Most of them were old people and children, even babies less than two feet tall. Most of the corpses were naked, and their hearts and lungs had even been ripped out...
There are also many women, like large bells, hanging naked on the trees, floating gently in the wind.
The blood dripped down the body onto the toes, and when blown by the night wind, it froze little by little. The blood ice on the toes of several of them was actually connected to the ground...
Seeing Li Chengzhi's gloomy face and not saying a word, Li Feng carefully explained: "The old and the children are weak and can't do much. Keeping them will waste food. Naturally, they will be killed when they can, and abandoned when they can... And these
Those who have no clothes must be rich people. If the silk clothes are taken off, they can exchange for some money and food..."
Li Chengzhi gritted his teeth tightly, as if he had accumulated phlegm, and there was a strange "hissing" sound in his chest and abdomen. His eyes were as red as blood, like an enraged beast.
It's not like he hasn't heard of how miserable the people would be when faced with war and famine in ancient times.
But it's one thing to hear it, and it's another thing to see it with your own eyes... These are all real people...
If you rob, you will rob, and if you rape, you will rape. What is the purpose of this heart-breaking thing?
He stared at the disemboweled corpses for a long time before he said one word from between his teeth: "Let's go!"
Li Feng next to him was a little frightened: Before the killing started, Lang Jun seemed to have red eyes?
Several cavalrymen were protecting Li Chengzhi, and they had just caught up with the rear of the team when they suddenly heard a whistle from the front team.
The whistle sounded slightly flat, but it was not a signal of encountering an enemy. It seemed that a Tangqi was coming to report.
Li Feng took out his copper whistle and called back, and saw several horses running from the front of the team.
Li Chengzhi had sharp eyes and recognized Zhang Xingyi at a glance.
But why does it look like he is wearing a linen robe from a government official?
Li Feng next to him exclaimed: "Uncle Ya?"
Seeing Li Chengzhi looking at him coldly, Li Feng finally reacted, pointed to the rider next to Zhang Xingyi and explained: "His name is Guo Ya, he is the head of my uncle's family..."
It means Guo Cunxin’s cronies.
When he heard that it was Guo Cunxin's person, Li Chengzhi's face suddenly turned cold.
Why, do you want to force your nephew to calm down the chaos for him?
With thoughts swirling in his mind, several riders rushed in front of him. Li Chengzhi took a look and saw that Guo Ya was in his early forties, wearing a silk robe but a flat scarf.
Seeing Li Chengzhi sitting on the horse, he seemed to be stunned and just stared stupidly.
Li Chengzhi endured it and almost hit him in the face with a whip.
I just heard him laugh ferociously: "How about it, do you want me to dismount and kowtow to you?"
Guo Ya felt a cold air blowing towards his face, as if he was in an ice cellar. When he looked up again, he saw a murderous look on Li Chengzhi's face, as if he wanted to pull out a knife and chop him with one blow.
He was startled, jumped off the horse quickly, bowed his head and said, "I have seen you, sir!"
The husband of the Li family is really wise?
Seeing that Li Chengzhi was full of murderous intent, Zhang Xingyi didn't know what was going on, and cursed angrily: "My mother-in-law... you have been fooled by Suo Siwen... Li Bai has also been fooled..."
Li Chengzhi was a little confused.
Didn't it mean that Li Bai was forced out of the city by Guo Cunxin? How could he be fooled again?
Where did this Suo Siwen come from?
Just as he was startled and doubtful, he heard Zhang Xingyi roar again: "What about Yang Daocheng... he is the Taoist priest who sent you the letter... he is a spy..."
Li Chengzhi's expression changed suddenly...
……
The whole army stopped five miles south of Chaona City.
Standing on a high slope, you can even see the smoke from the farms outside the city.
The thieves who were staying temporarily were making food. The detective horse had also reported the situation. Looking at the movements of the thieves, it seemed that they were going to return to Jingzhou with the stolen property and Dingkou.
Li Chengzhi stood astride his horse, looking at the direction of the county seat, and would sneer from time to time.
My Qi nourishing skills are really far behind...
When he first found out that Li Bai was forced out of the city by his cheap uncle, he was so angry that he wished he could chop his heart out with a knife.
He even planned how to avenge this revenge...
It never occurred to me that no matter how bad Guo Cunxin was, he was still his uncle, so how could he trick his nephew?
I never thought that no matter how lowly Li Bai was, he was still a retainer of the Li family and not a slave of the Guo family. How could he be bluffed by Guo Cunxin and then recklessly lead his soldiers out of the city to meet the enemy?
It turns out that he has nothing to do with Guo Cunxin at all. It was all planned by the county magistrate...
But you can’t blame yourself entirely.
At that time, I saw that Guo Shouzheng also looked like he hated iron, so I thought that this uncle was definitely a loser...
It’s also Li Bai’s fault that he was blinded by profit and fell into a trap.
Suo Siwen told Li Bai that whatever he led his troops to rob from the bandits, whether it was grain, grass, property, or even a small hole, belonged to the Li family. If it was still not enough, he would open the county warehouse and give it to the Li family.
It's not impossible to post some, as long as we can quell the thieves outside the city...
Li Bai's head got hot and he led the troops out of the city. Who knew that the enemy thieves were followed by cavalry?
Looking back at this Suo Siwen, it was a really good calculation. Not only did he not think about repairing the prison, but he wanted to do it without stopping. He bribed Zhang Xingyi's men to fake emergency orders to him, and also let the guards on the city deceive Tang.
Qi, you blamed all these things on Guo Cunxin, and actually deceived yourself?
The purpose is to annex even my current brigade...
He was even arrogant to the extreme, thinking that even if his plan failed, even if the Li family found out in the end, there would be nothing he could do...
If Yin Zhen had not been locked up in the dungeon of Zhaoxuan Temple, Li Chengzhi would have doubted whether this thief monk had escaped.
What we are playing is again the game of clan politics: interests come first!
Grandpa just wants to show you today what it means to be barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes...
Li Chengzhi looked gloomy and said nothing, just waiting for news from Tang Qi.
Knowing that he would definitely explode at this moment, Li Feng and others remained silent. They only waited for Li Chengzhi's order before the whole army attacked.
In the entire mountain forest, the only sound of the horse's breath could be heard...
Guo Ya behind him looked secretly frightened.
Li Bai only said that the husband of the Li family was not only enlightened, but also extremely smart, so he said no more.
But looking at the scene now, is it more than just enlightening?
Where did the majesty of the Li family generals and hundreds of soldiers come from?
Calculating carefully, according to what Li Bai said, starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year, it is just January...
Not long after waiting, I saw Tang Qi galloping towards me, with a green flag on his back, indicating that the enemy had begun to move out.
He ran up to confirm it himself, and Li Feng galloped over and said to Li Chengzhi: "The thieves have been dispatched. The two hundred miscellaneous cavalry were divided into two, each with three hundred spearmen. One part is heading west, and it seems that they are going to continue.
Robbery, another car is driving, seems to be sending the property and Dingkou to Jingzhou..."
