Chapter 297 Beheading on the spot
Chapter 297 Killing on the spot
With such an order, Chen Ruinian was shocked and quickly tied the reins. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood Lu Zhi's meaning.
This village is not big, and it seems unlikely that hundreds of people are completely hidden. After all, judging by these horses, the number of these horses is wrong. The best way to preserve their strength is to quickly resolve the battle.
Wow, swow, crossbow arrows fell down like raindrops, and people began to scream, roar, moan, and all kinds of sounds were heard in the village.
But in about ten breaths, there were almost no arrows shot out in the village, and Lu Zhi then clamped the horse's belly.
"The Maliu Camp blocks the village, and everyone presses on!"
With the roar, Lu Zhi rushed down the horse first, and Lao Xu followed closely. Chen Ruinian was eager to take revenge at this moment. He squatted on the war horse with a horizontal knife, and rushed down quickly. When he reached the edge of the village, he jumped off the war horse.
He wants to find someone, even if he wants to find a living person, he wants to verify his initial judgment. After all, he is just far away, and if he sees it wrong, he can't tell whether he has other means to get the shield and the bow.
After all, no one hopes that he will ambush himself and harm his subordinates are the same robes as him.
Such harm is even more unacceptable than being killed. It is betrayal and a victim of power and conspiracy. What he is more worried about at this moment is that his father and brother are also implicated by this matter.
I thought in my mind that the movements in my hands did not slow down. I rushed into the low wall, grabbed a corpse, and tore open the facial scarf. He didn't recognize the person, and searched it on his body, but he didn't find anything that could prove his identity.
Obviously, this was all deliberately modified. After thinking about it, I pulled off the black cloth above the corpse's head, tied up the bun high, and inserted a wooden hairpin.
When Chen Ruinian pulled out the wooden hairpin, his hands were already trembling.
There are many styles of wooden hairpins for ordinary people, but there are strict regulations in the imperial guards. Because special zippers are required, hairpins are distributed uniformly. They are a wooden hairpin with bends. Some people even engrave their names on them to distinguish them from others.
The wooden hairpin contains the word "le". Perhaps the person's name contains "le". He clasped the wooden hairpin tightly and quickly grabbed another corpse. Sure enough, the wooden hairpin was the same, but this person did not engrave the letter.
After searching for a while, Chen Ruinian put away his grief and anger and quickly came to Lu Zhi. Some injured and undead people had been caught here, and they were tied up and threw them in the courtyard.
Chen Ruinian raised the wooden hairpin in his palm and sent it to Lu Zhi.
"Lu Duwei, this is the wooden hairpin I found on the corpse. People in the Imperial Guard have strict requirements for wearing a hairpin. Even the wooden hairpin has a prescribed standard. Some of them are engraved with names, which shows that these people are also people of the Imperial Guard."
Lu Zhi glanced at it and his eyes fell on the captured people.
"The imperial guards pretend to be horse thieves? Haha, the matter is interesting. Take a look at how many are alive and how many are dead now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier stepped forward and knelt on one knee to report:
"Reported to the Duwei of Lu, there were 231 bodies, 26 injured and captured, and 174 horses were left without injuries. As for silver, it was impossible to count them, and a total of 400 bags were found."
Lu Zhi waved his hand and glanced at Lao Xu beside him.
"There is no need to be examined. Check the teeth. If you don't hide the poison, you will block your mouth and tie it up here. As for the horse silver, there are 100 people guarding the horse litter camp, and the remaining people will be on the horse."
Chen Ruinian knew that Lu Zhi meant to find another possible stronghold, but how did they predict such a place?
As soon as the team climbed up the mountain, they saw several sentry guards rushing in front of them.
"Report to Captain Lu, Battalion Commander Zhang asked his subordinates to send a message. We intercepted a team of people. They were wearing imperial guards' clothes and some horses carrying heavy objects. The other party refused to check it out, and there was a conflict. At this time, the other party had already controlled it."
Lu Zhi's face darkened.
"Where are people?"
"Just in a valley three miles west here, they said they were the ones who fell behind in Hu Duwei's team."
"Is Lv Zhongxin?"
The soldier was startled and quickly lowered his head.
"No, Battalion Commander Lu didn't listen to the other party's words, so he took action directly, caught the other party off guard, injured about a hundred of them, and then controlled the people in place. Battalion Commander Zhang meant to let the Duwei Lu decide."
Lu Zhi waved his hand.
"Let's go and see. Li Baiding took people to call the people in the village below, and with prisoners and horses, and evacuated directly. As for the bodies in the village, they burned!"
Chen Ruinian was stunned. Isn’t there any evidence to get burned?
But he didn't dare to say much. After all, Lu Zhi's series of arrangements made people feel incredible, but each step was extremely concise. The team followed the sentry guards and headed towards the west side.
Soon, I saw a group of imperial guards trapped in the valley below. Sure enough, a large area of wounded people were guarding them. After a rough calculation, there were at least more than 200 people.
Chen Ruinian stared at the man carefully for a few glances, instantly widened his eyes, lowered his voice and said to Lu Zhi:
"I know this person. He is Shen Conglin, the commander of the Shenwu Camp. Now, if you think about it carefully, this person was the one who besieged us and pretended to be the leader of a bandit. But he deliberately hoarsely and even used a whistle to interfere with my judgment."
Lu Zhi glanced at Chen Ruinian. After the rush in the village just now, this person's mentality should have changed a lot. It is a good thing to be able to say so proactively.
It seems that what left in the village before was just the scapegoats after something happened, and they were the part that needed to be evacuated.
Lu Zhi raised his body slightly, reached out and patted Chen Ruinian on the shoulder twice.
Almost all the officers of the upper class can be familiar with this action, whether in the navy or the entire Zhennan Army.
Chen Ruinian looked at Lu Zhi's hand, and his eyes were a little sore for a moment.
For a long time, in the eyes of the imperial guards, Zhennan Army was just as wild as the grassroots, but now it was recognized by Lu Zhi, and he couldn't say that he was happy.
Although he has become a betrayal dog, he may even be punished and beheaded.
But at this moment, he was not worried at all. He always had to do something vigorously in his life. Isn’t that the case before him?
Feeling the warmth on his shoulders, Chen Ruinian even wanted to rush over and kill Shen Conglin, but he endured it.
"Don't think so much. At this time, I will take a look at our young master's tips first and then decide what to do."
Lu Zhi took out a green tip, and the first tip was red before.
Zhou Ze said that after receiving the news or seeing the survivor, he opened the first tip, and then found the real murderer, if he didn't know what to do, he opened the second tip.
Although I didn't catch anyone at this moment, I was already trapped and I was really scratching my head if I wanted to deal with it.
After all, they are imperial guards, how should they report this?
Is it said that the bandits were caught, but it was just faked by the imperial guards?
That's it, who believes it?
Such an arrangement can be described as a series of plans.
Among the escorts, Hu Duwei and General Chen were old enemies, and they created so many situations along the way.
Then, in the Crescent Valley bandits robbed, there were abandoned sons among the bandits to cover, and the remaining imperial guards in this team were even more hot.
When the news here is delivered to the capital, someone will definitely bite it back.
Especially the prince, how could he miss this opportunity?
It was said that this was the imperial guards who were deliberately doing it and set up a trap to make it difficult to escort them. It was not just for these people to be kept or killed. Lu Zhi was really a little difficult.
When he opened the tip, pulled out the letter paper, and opened it, Lu Zhi was stunned. After all, there were five pieces of paper in it, but he flipped it up and down. There was a word "kill" written in the middle of each piece of paper, and the handwriting was crooked, as if it were a child.
But Lu Zhi knew that this was Zhou Ze's handwriting and others could not write such handwriting.
Looking at the paper in his hand, he was hesitant now.
Old Xu looked at Lu Zhi sideways. Although this person has been a bandit for many years, his decisive spirit has always been there, and he is a responsible person. Why is he stunned with a titular bag?
Old Xu walked to Lu Zhi neared the horse and asked with concern:
"What's wrong? Did you say anything incredible?"
Lu Zhi didn't say much, and handed the letter to Lao Xu. Seeing the handwriting on it, Lao Xu's lips trembled, then tore the paper apart, and raised his hands all over the air.
"I didn't see the tips. You can do whatever you want, but this order is cold-blooded, but it's done once and for all."
Old Xu's words moved Lu Zhi. He believed in his own judgment. What else is more than happy about this? He looked at the encircled imperial guards in the middle, and Lu Zhi pulled out his long sword and raised it high.
"The bold bandits pretending to be an imperial guard is like hiding through the barrier. They obey orders and kill them on the spot!"
