As soon as Shen Shi passed, the sun had already set in the west. Although it had not set down the mountain yet, it seemed that it was only a few feet away from the top of the mountain in the distance. It was already getting dark, and running around
Sha Wanli's troops, who had been fighting fiercely for most of the day, were already exhausted, but they still had to cheer up and patrol outside the forest.
However, this kind of hardship is really not that easy to endure. Although no one dared to protest loudly due to the situation, the whispers of complaints never stopped, and many of them were burying Sha Wanli and Huyan Tiexin.
Due to the incompetence of these two leaders, the so-called military morale has long been gone.
"Brother, this can't go on like this. My brothers can't stand it anymore. Damn it, those idiots don't treat our brothers as human beings at all. Damn it, how about we take the opportunity to leave? The grassland is so big, why?
I can’t go anywhere, but I have to bear the arrogance of Mr. Sun, and I’m so depressed and disgusting!”
Not to mention that all the bandits were filled with resentment, even Hu Yan Tiexin, the second in charge, could not stand it any longer. He rode his horse to Sha Wanli's side and lowered his voice and suggested.
"This..., second brother, just bear with it a little longer. Alas, the patience will pass."
Speaking of "Sun Gong", Sha Wanli was also full of resentment, but when he thought of the young family being controlled in his hometown, all the unwillingness in Sha Wanli's heart turned into depression - since Sun Quanfu led his people to rescue him
Being escorted
After Sha Wanli and others from Beijing put forward the request to join the team, Sha Wanli didn't think much about it at first and easily agreed to Sun Quanfu's request. However, he never expected that Sun Quanfu could pull up a team in less than half a year.
Extremely powerful
The strength of his team is several times that of Sha Wanli, and there are countless masters among them. Under Tai'a's support, although Sha Wanli still has the title of "big boss", he is actually completely controlled by Sun Quanfu.
, it’s not like he hasn’t thought about it
Resist or part ways, but Sun Quanfu was more ruthless than him. He had already controlled all the families of Sha Wanli and others. Thinking of the safety of his wife, children, and children, no matter how unwilling Sha Wanli was, he could only cry out in vain.
share.
"Brother, how long can I endure this? Alas..."
Huyan Tiexin was alone and without the burden of a family, so it was really easy for him to leave. However, he was reluctant to leave Sha Wanli, whom he had a life-long friendship with. Seeing that Sha Wanli was so willing to compromise, he knew that he was worried about his old camp.
The family members inside could only helplessly shake their heads and sigh.
"Sun Gong has an order: You must immediately cut down wood and make piles for campfires. Make piles every thirty feet. The height of each pile must not be less than one foot. You must surround the outer edge of the forest!"
Hu Yan Tiexin's sigh had not yet stopped when he saw a knight suddenly running over from the rear of the main formation, shouting loudly at Sha Wanli and the others.
"What? Cutting down trees and not allowing people to live?"
"Fart, your grandma, how can you cut down so much wood?"
"What a fool, you are just playing tricks on me!"
…
This dense forest is trapezoidal, and the front end is not very wide, but no matter how you calculate it, it is about a hundred feet. If you really want to follow this order, you will need to install four bonfires. This kind of workload is not easy.
When the bandits who were originally full of resentment heard this, they all immediately burst into laughter. No matter how ugly Sha Wanli's face was, they started to curse loudly.
"That's enough. Get off your horse and go cut down the trees. If anyone dares to talk nonsense again, I'll kill him!"
Sha Wanli has always been a rebellious person, so he was so angry at this order that he wanted to resist, but when he thought about his wife and children in the old camp, all his dissatisfaction immediately turned into helplessness.
The men were so noisy that their expressions suddenly dropped. They pulled out the sword from their waists, gave it a heavy blow, and roared, forcibly silencing the thieves' protest.
"Very good, you are wise!"
The soldier who came to deliver the order did not pay any attention to Sha Wanli, the so-called "big boss". He snorted coldly, dropped a disdainful word, twisted his horse's head and ran back to the main formation.
"You bitch, I'll kill you!"
Seeing the arrogance of the soldier who came to deliver the order, Huyan Tiexin was really angry. He pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist, shook the horse's reins, and planned to kill someone.
"Second brother, don't be rash!"
Sha Wanli was startled by Huyan Tiexin's actions. He hurriedly stretched out his hand, grabbed Huyan Tiexin's arm, and hurriedly said something to stop him.
"Brother, alas..."
After Huyan Tiexin screamed unwillingly, he sighed helplessly, shook his hand, sheathed the horizontal sword, and stopped breathing with a dark face.
"Why the hell are you so stunned? Get off your horse and go cut wood for me!"
Seeing that the second master could not do anything to get rid of the rampant messenger, all the bandits were dejected. They all looked sad and bowed their heads without saying anything. As soon as this happened, Sha Wanli was immediately angry.
Da Qi suddenly waved the riding whip in his hand and began to curse angrily. Seeing this, all the bandits, although unwilling to do so, had no choice but to get off their horses and start cutting wood.
"Second brother, my brother has something that needs to be done by the second brother, but I don't know if the second brother dares to do it?"
Seeing that his subordinates had lost dozens of people after the previous battle, Sha Wanli's heart immediately ached. When he saw the dejected and dejected looks of the bandits, a string in Sha Wanli's heart was broken.
He was already trembling wildly, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He rode his horse to the side of the unhappy Huyan Tiexin and asked in a low voice.
"Brother, just tell me if you have anything to do. I'll just go and take care of it myself."
Although Huyan Tiexin never recovered from his rage, he couldn't help but brush Sha Wanli's face, so he just replied dully.
"Okay, second brother, please listen carefully..."
Sha Wanli quickly patrolled around and saw that all the bandits under his command had dispersed. Then he pressed close to Huyan Tiexin's ear and started mumbling instructions, which made Huyan Tiexin's face change wildly.
…
"Your Highness, I got a little thief who came to spy."
It was getting dark, and Li Xian, who had recuperated his energy, was about to summon Liu and Zhang, his two close confidants, to discuss the breakout. However, he saw Xiao Sanlang, the leader of the team, approaching in a hurry. He bowed and hurriedly spoke.
Report.
"Cut it down!"
Li Xian had already learned most of what he needed to know about the enemy from Liu Liu's mouth, and since he was too lazy to interrogate a small group of thieves, he waved his hand and gave the order without hesitation.
"This..., Your Highness, that person claims to have urgent military information to report."
Upon hearing what Li Xian said, Xiao Sanlang was stunned for a moment, and then quickly explained.
"Oh? Then bring it with you."
The doubtful look on Li Xian's face flashed across his face, but he didn't say anything. He just raised his eyebrows and gave instructions calmly.
"promise!"
Since Li Xian had given the order, Xiao Sanlang did not dare to delay any longer. He hurriedly responded and hurriedly turned into the dense forest again. Within a few seconds, he and two guards in charge of guarding were escorting a group of people.
A muscular man came back again.
"Huyan Tiexin?"
Li Xian's memory was very good, and he recognized the origin of the man with his hands tied at just one glance, and the curiosity in his eyes suddenly became stronger.
"I have urgent military information to report to Your Highness. Please inquire."
Huyan Tiexin obviously didn't expect that Li Xian recognized him at first sight, and couldn't help being stunned. Then, a look of excitement flashed across his dark face. Obviously, in his opinion, being able to be recognized by him
Remembering this is something that heroes like Li Xian can be proud of for the rest of their lives. However, because of the heavy responsibility, Hu Yantiexin did not dare to talk nonsense and hurriedly said something.
"Untie!"
Li Xian still has some affection for Hu Yan Tiexin, not because of his martial arts, but because he cherishes his toughness and loyalty. He had some affection for him during the battle in the outskirts of Longzhou.
In my heart, it was just that the military situation was urgent at the back and I had no time to pay attention to other matters, so I missed it. Now that I saw that he dared to come to see me alone, I would not make it more difficult for him, so I ordered him to be relaxed.
tie.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I was entrusted by my eldest brother to come here to plead guilty to His Highness. I disturbed His Highness twice and three times. I really deserve death. However, this was not my brother's original intention. It was really a forced and helpless act.
Now, that Sun Gong is bullying me
It is unbearable to wait for my brother to go too far. My brother wanted to rise up and fight back, but his family is all in his hands, but he is in vain. If Your Highness can send someone to rescue my family, I am willing to follow Your Highness and fight in all directions.
"
Although Huyan Tiexin came from a bandit, his words were quite organized, and his vocabulary and dictionary were not inappropriate. He was not like a bandit, but rather had the air of a scholar, which really shocked Li Xian.
of.
"Has Mr. Hu Yaner been familiar with my Han family's literary classics?"
Li Xian did not rush to answer Hu Yan Tiexin's request, but raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"Returning to Your Highness, I have been poor since I was a child. Later I met a traveling Taoist priest and worked as his servant for several years. In addition to guns and horses, I also learned some writing. I can read a little, but I am not very good at it."
Huyan Tiexin was obviously very proud of his ability to write. When he answered Li Xian's words, his words were respectful, but his face was filled with a bit of complacency.
"Well, since you can know books, why are you a thief?"
Li Xian nodded calmly, then changed the topic and asked a sharp question.
"Some..." Upon hearing Li Xian's question, Hu Yan Tiexin's face instantly turned red, and then darkened again. He sighed and said, "So that Your Highness will know that the villain master returned to secular life after his death."
, thinking he had some martial arts skills, he started to practice
He had a chivalrous heart, but he unexpectedly offended someone in the government within a few years of his career. He was framed and imprisoned, and was left to die. Later, he was rescued by my eldest brother. Thanks to his kindness, he entered the underworld.
You're a robber, your Highness is a joke."
"I see, I can tell you the truth, and your family members can help me. However, I have two conditions. First, all the 'Black Wind Bandits' who have descended from Shawanli must put down their weapons."
If any of the people want to surrender to the army, they should report it according to military regulations.
Whether you can pass the test or not depends on your own ability. I will not interfere. If you become a thief again, you will be killed without mercy! Secondly, I want you to join the guard of Gu, starting from an ordinary soldier. Are you willing to do so?
?" Li Xian didn't want to beat around the bush and made the conditions straightforwardly.
"This..., Your Highness Haihan, this matter is not something that a villain can make the decision about. Let the villain report back to my brother and then let His Highness know about it."
Li Xian's words have been made very clear, which means that in the entire "Black Wind Pirates", Li Xian only has Hu Yan Tiexin, and as for the rest, including Sha Wanli, Li Xian looks down upon them.
Huyan Tiexin was both excited and frightened by the importance he attached to him. He really didn't dare to agree easily, so he could only respond humbly.
"Okay, Hu Yaner, head of the family, just feel free to do it yourself."
Li Xian has some affection for Huyan Tiexin, but he doesn't value him as much as Tuoba Mountain. It just means that he is indispensable. The conditions have been given, and Li Xian will not agree to it.
I don't really care about it.
"Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness. I have one more thing to report. Duke Sun ordered us to cut down some wood for a bonfire. I think he planned to trap His Highness here. Although our brothers are not talented, we are somewhat confident of escorting His Highness away from here. Please wait a moment, Your Highness."
, Rong Xiaoren will go and discuss with your brother and then speak to His Highness." Hu Yan Tiexin bowed respectfully, briefly reported the general's situation, and then left in a hurry.
Light a bonfire? What did Sun Quanfu, the old gelding, want to do? Li Xian did not care about Hu Yan Tiexin's departure, but frowned and thought about it - in terms of military strength, although Sun Quanfu had an absolute advantage, if he wanted to rely on
It is obviously impossible to win in a jungle battle with such an advantage. This has been the case in the previous series.
You can know the basics by looking at it. As for relying on siege to force oneself to death, it is a huge joke. In such a large forest, there is no shortage of animals and wild animals. It is not difficult to survive for most of a year. In other words, Sun Quanfu is like this
The stalking must have another purpose, which may be related to Pei Shoude's actions in Lanzhou!
"Gather and prepare to break out!"
Thinking of Pei Shoude's actions, Li Xian's heart couldn't help but tighten. He didn't dare to delay any more, so he raised his hand and shouted loudly. The guards who had been on standby for a long time immediately took action upon hearing the order.
