"It's great that knowing mistakes can improve. I won't care. What about your leader? Why didn't you come? Do you look down on our military commander?" Zhao Rong asked sternly, pretending to be like a military officer in the palace, looking down on the other party.
Looks like.
Lan'er bit her lip, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said calmly: "Our leader is waiting for the adults in the village to prepare for the welcome. The adults don't want to talk here."
"You are so brave! Why did you become a bandit at such a young age?" Zhao Rong said. The other party meant that I don't know what you are going to come in person. Why would the leader come in person? If you want to talk, go to the parody.
Before the young man could answer, Zhao Rong turned his head and ordered everyone behind him: "Zhao Qingshan, take your personal guards to the mountain, and the rest of them are waiting here. After an hour, before I could send a message, you set fire to the wild boar ridge.
Then, the soldiers and horse envoys sent troops to encircle and suppress them." After saying that, he blinked at Zhao Xiong, Li Lingfeng and others.
When the black-armored boy heard this, his face changed. Although it was April and the trees had green buds, the dead leaves on the ground were also thick. Although it could not be set on fire, the people in the village were also given
Sleeping to death in the mountain village.
"Yes, sir!" Zhao Xiong and others were worried, but they still responded loudly.
"Boy, lead!"
Lan'er breathed a deep breath and said, "Sir, please follow me!"
Zhao Xiong led his personal guard to follow the black-armored boy up the mountain.
Zhao Qingshan said to Zhao Xiong when he left: "Don't worry, sirs, I will definitely use my life to protect sir."
After bypassing several levels, Zhao Rong and others finally arrived in front of the Wild Boar Ridge Village.
"What a wild boar ridge. It's really a one-man who can pass by it, but it's a ten thousand men!" Zhao Rong looked at the village gate that was located between two cliffs, which was only fifteen meters wide and twenty meters high, and couldn't help but sigh.
, He also discovered that the bandits in the Wild Boar Ridge Village are very different from those in Wohu Mountain. They have strict systems and look at the other party's marching posture, they are even much better than the soldiers under his command.
My people are still too weak. Except for the personal guards and some teams, the rest are the people who have only trained for a few days. Except for discipline and formation, the rest are too far behind. It seems that they still need to train well.
It is best to go through a bloody battle. Zhao Rong thought to himself.
"Sir, this is the leader of our parody!" After entering the village gate, Zhao Rong saw a middle-aged man in his forties greeting him with four or five strong middle-aged men. The black-armored boy introduced.
"Welcome to all of you!" The leader of the Wild Boar Ridge village clasped his fists and saluted at Zhao Rong.
"Yes!" Zhao Rong responded lightly, not talking.
Seeing that the other party was so rude, several big men clenched their fists and wanted to scold them, but they were all blocked by the middle-aged man. The middle-aged leader's face remained unchanged and said with a smile: "Sir, please! Let's go inside."
say."
Zhao Rong was surprised to see the bandits coming and going along the way, because these bandits were not only like their subordinates, but also walked like regular army patrols, but also the little leader who led the team was even equipped with
Armor. For a moment, Zhao Rong expressed doubts about the purpose of this trip.
"Give tea!" After Zhao Rong sat in the left main seat, the middle-aged man said to the guard.
At this moment, several girls in silk skirts brought tea to everyone.
"Please do this, sir." The middle-aged man said to Zhao Qingshan behind Zhao Rong.
Zhao Qingshan said coldly: "No! I am the escort of the adults, just stand." The other guards also stood around the hall, facing the bandits in the village.
After taking a sip of tea, Zhao Rong sneered: "I didn't expect that a bandit village would enjoy it. Only some big houses in the prefecture can have such good tea. And this pear wood table is rare.
The best."
"This is not specially prepared to welcome adults." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked the name of the leader yet."
"I'm here to Li Luobei! I wonder what the purpose of this time is that sir?" the middle-aged man asked after answering.
Zhao Rong smiled and said, "My Lord Su visited Miyun County not long ago and heard that there was a group of bandits with good character here. After that, I found out that although this group of bandits were not bandits, they did not harm the village.
Neighbors, so Lord Su developed a love for talents and hoped that Chief Li would serve the country in this country when the country was in danger."
Li Luobei pondered: "My Lord means, Lord Su wants us to surrender?"
Zhao Rongdao: "It can be understood so too!"
Li Luobei put away his smile and said calmly: "This great man keeps saying that you are a subordinate of Lord Su, the military envoy of Yanzhou. Is there any proof?"
Zhao Rong sneered: "So, is Chief Li suspicious of my identity?"
"I dare not, I just want to confirm the identity of the adult."
Zhao Rong nodded to Zhao Qingshan behind him. Zhao Qingshan took out the crossbow at his waist, threw it on the table in the middle, and said loudly: "This is a weapon given by Lord Su. Only Lord Su's confidants will have it. There is one on it.
The mark of the military envoy's mansion."
Li Luobei picked it up and looked at it, put it on the table, and said, "This only means that this weapon belongs to the Military Envoy's Mansion, and it does not mean that this lord is also a subordinate of the Military Envoy."
Zhao Rong laughed and said, "What Chief Li said is very true. I really don't have the proof of the military commander."
"Damn it!"
"court death!"
Before Zhao Ruo finished speaking, the five people next to Li Luobei shouted angrily.
Zhao Rong didn't care at all, picked up the teacup and drank it gently, and said softly: "Lord Su is in Le County, Yingzhou, that is, Le County, less than a hundred miles southwest."
As soon as these words came out, the five people who cursed angrily stopped.
Li Luobeidao: "Le County? You are not soldiers from Yanzhou Prefecture!"
"No! We are the rebel army under Lord Su's name. In other words, we are the private army under Lord Su's command. The reason why Lord Su is in Le County is that he hopes that the Le County Captain assists himself in the bandits around Miyun County, Qingping. Nowadays,
There was only one leader of Li, a bandit with more than 300 people from Le County to Miyun County.
"What if we don't surrender?" The black-armored boy who took Zhao Rong up the mountain suddenly interrupted.
"bump!"
Zhao Rong slapped the hard pear wooden tables beside him with one palm.
Zhao Rong's behavior shocked everyone. Zhao Rong, who didn't understand why he was so whispering, suddenly was like this. At the same time, he was shocked by the other party's palm power. The three-fingered hard pear wooden table was slapped by the other party's palm.
Baluo.
"If you don't surrender, it's the same as this table! What? This little brother is also your leader?" Zhao Rong said coldly.
Li Luobei was stunned for a moment and said with a forced smile: "This is me..."
"I am not interested in listening to your private affairs in the village. I just hope that Chief Li will make a decision to fight or surrender!"
"You..." the black-armored boy said a word angrily.
A strong man beside Li Luobei said, "There is a group of bandits to the south of us..."
"Wohu Mountain, old scar! I have wiped out, and my head has been sent to Le County!" Zhao Rong looked at the other party coldly and said word by word.
"Hiss!" Several people took a deep breath of air conditioning.
The number of bandits in Wohu Mountain is equivalent to that of himself, causing trouble for dozens of miles around, and is extremely cruel. Even the people in Wild Boar Ridge are unwilling to get involved with it, and they did not expect that they had been wiped out.
Zhao Rong continued: "If it weren't for your usual actions, I'm afraid that this time I would not be me, but the soldiers of Le County and the soldiers of Miyun County. Although, your power and terrain are better than those of Crouching Tigers.
The mountain is stronger, but..."
Although they didn't say anything, everyone understood that if the two county government soldiers attacked together, as long as the government soldiers in Wohu Mountain attacked, they would be difficult to resist. Of course, they didn't know that Zhao Rong was also taking advantage of the other party's numbness.
, captured by surprise.
After a while, Li Luobei said calmly: "If we surrender, what are you going to do?"
Zhao Ruo was secretly happy, with a calm face and said lightly: "Those who are willing to join the army can join my subordinates, and those who are unwilling can go home. Oh, by the way, my subordinates and soldiers will have a monthly salary of 700 cents."
This sentence surprised everyone. In the Kingdom of Dayan, the system of guards and government troops was implemented. The guards were under the court and were under the jurisdiction of the General of the Sixteen Guards. Each guard was divided into two guards, with a total of 40,000 to 50,000 people.
The sound is only seven hundred civic. The palace soldiers are local local soldiers and reserve soldiers of the guards. Joining the government soldiers can reduce the taxes a small amount. The imperial court limits the number of silver, and each person is only four to five hundred civic.
Nowadays, I am afraid that there are not many people who have obtained it. The Longxiang Guard guards in Youzhou are the Longxiang Guards, with 50,000 people plus the palace soldiers, totaling 130,000. In the western part of Youzhou are the left guards and palace soldiers led by the General of the Longxiang Army.
In the east are the right guards and guards led by the governor of Youzhou. Even the government troops fighting with the guards did not have that many months, but they had a reward of 700 ci, and they could usually buy one stone of food, but now they are also
It is enough to buy seven or eight dollars, plus the harvest of family farming, to live a family in a month.
Zhao Rong continued, "What's the purpose of being a bandit? Isn't it just that I have no food to eat, and the taxes are heavy? But now the court has exempted the taxes from Youzhou townships. With money, why do you still be a bandit? Want to be a bandit for thousands of years?
Live with a bad reputation. Even if your reputation here is good, in the eyes of others, you are still bandits, bandits who harm all over the world! Follow me, Yuexiang will not be missing you, and you will also be rewarded if you kill the enemy.
Yin, my subordinates have sent it once, and at least one or two taels. In addition, I will protect the safety of these families."
The few people were even more surprised. Li Luobei also fell into deep thought. After a while, he said to the people around him: "Brothers, what do you think?"
All five said respectfully: "Assume the leader's arrangements!"
Li Luobei said seriously: "Okay, I am willing to surrender, and everyone is not willing to live with the names of bandits on their backs. Go down and say to your brothers, who are willing to go home, I will give each person five taels of silver.
The family fee is to settle down. Those who are willing to join the army can stay. In addition, give all the things that cannot be taken away from the mountain village to the villages and towns at the foot of the mountain. We can't use them anyway." After saying that, Li Luobei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's make arrangements now!" The five strode out.
Zhao Rong smiled and said, "Captain Li is indeed smart!"
Li Luobei laughed and said, "Master Zhao is really smart!"
Zhao Rong's expression changed when he heard this, because he had never said his name, and the other party actually knew it.
