Chapter 217 The situation expands

Going north from Zhongdu County, there are hilly areas. This area is undulating, dense forests and sparsely populated areas. It is a good area for bandits to appear. Li Yanqing rode his horse slowly along the official road. The scorching sun above his head. The weather was very dry. When a gust of wind blew, sand and dust immediately blew up on the official road, making it difficult for passers-by to walk. There were grass and shrubs on both sides of the official road, and there were large forests farther away.

Li Yanqing didn't dare to be careless at this time. He placed the bow and arrow horizontally on the saddle and watched the movements in the woods on both sides vigilantly. He had walked for more than twenty miles and still had no abnormal situation.

At this time, a sharp roar came from the woods. More than a dozen men holding weapons appeared on the official road in the distance. Li Yanqing immediately stopped the horse and finally came.

He looked back and saw dozens of steps behind him running out of the woods, blocking his future and retreat, but the number was not large, with less than forty people in total.

Li Yanqing has adjusted the bow and arrow to the best state and can shoot arrows at any time. What he is concerned about now is not the bandits attacking front and back, but the archers ambushing in the woods on both sides of the east and west. Since there are no archers in the bandits in front and behind, where have the opponent's archers gone?

Li Yanqing quickly found the answer. The archer was on the west side, and more than a dozen figures were shaking in the woods, and they instantly stopped again. It was obvious that they were raising the crossbow and aiming it at him. However, Li Yanqing was not worried. Since the other party wanted his horse, the other party would not shoot arrows until the critical moment.

At this time, a man yelled in front of him, and saw that his neck was covered with gauze. It was Yang Hu, the fake head who cut his neck yesterday.

But Li Yanqing was not concerned about him, but the general next to him. He saw that this man was also riding a horse with a long spear in front of the horse. He was about thirty years old, and was thin and dark in shape. He was wearing a black hammer armor from the Song army and an iron helmet and a buzzard. From a distance, he looked like a black charcoal.

Yesterday, the civil servants taught Li Yanqing how to identify the status of the bandit generals in Liangshan. First, they looked at the mount. Liangshan had very few horses. Only fast horse spies and generals above the commander could ride horses. Secondly, they looked at armor. Small leaders like Yang Hu were not qualified to wear armor, and only generals above the commander could wear armor and helmets. There were 30 generals in Liangshan, and they each performed their own responsibilities. The three heroes of the Ruan family belonged to the commander.

If the other party is Dai Silver Helmet, it is the core general of Liangshan. There are ten people in total, called generals, and there are only two generals of Song Jiang and Chao Gai. They call themselves generals and have a total of five thousand bandits under their command.

The general in front of him was obviously one of the thirty commanders, and Song Jiang sent eight commanders down the mountain to inquire about various information. The commander in charge of the southeast was named Liu Gao, who was Yang Hu's immediate boss.

Liu Gao was nicknamed Hei Wuchang, and his brother, Red-haired Ghost Liu Tang, was also a gang in Liangshan, but he was a core general. Liu Gao himself was one of Chao Gai's confidant generals, responsible for intelligence investigation in the southeast area and raising military funds for Liangshan. Zhongdu County was within his jurisdiction.

Yesterday he received news from his confidant Yang Hu that a black-faced boy from another place rode an extremely strong white horse to Zhongdu County and cut Yang Hu's throat.

Not to mention that his subordinates suffered a great loss, Liu Gao could not sit idly by. Even if the other party had a horse, he would be moved. The old lord Chao Gai had always been worried about not having a good mount. He once told him to find a good horse for him. He also told him that Yang Hu would use any means to seize Li Yanqing's mount.

At this time, Liu Gao looked at the war horse under Li Yanqing's crotch and saw that the white horse was snow-white all over, without a single hair, and was majestic and slender, making it a rare BMW.

Liu Gao was overjoyed. Now he could get his old lord to get what he wanted. He looked at Li Yanqing again and saw that he wore a golden crown and a lilac warrior uniform. The fabric seemed to be woven with extremely expensive flower training. Liu Gao also had some knowledge. He knew that this kind of flower training was more expensive than Shu brocade. People wearing this kind of fabric were either rich or noble. In addition, the other party had black faces and white eyebrows, and had a very strange appearance, so he became cautious.

He then said to a confidant, "You go and ask the other party's origin, and you say I don't want to hurt his life and let him get off the horse and leave."

The school rushed away, thirty steps away from Li Yanqing and shouted, "Who are you?"

Li Yanqing cursed: "You care who I am. Your yamen is captured by you and let me release you immediately. Otherwise, my yamen will kill you to Liangshan and cut off the two dog thieves Song Jiang and Chao Gai!"

The school's face changed drastically and he ran back to report. Liu Gao was furious. Since he didn't eat the toast, he should not blame him for being ruthless.

He urged the horse to run towards Li Yanqing. At this time, Li Yanqing was ready. When the other party was still a hundred steps away, he immediately urged the horse to run to the side. Two consecutive arrows shot towards Liu Gao. The two arrows were extremely fast and reached Liu Gao's eyes in the blink of an eye.

Liu Gaoda was shocked and hurriedly avoided the side. One shot from above his left shoulder, but he couldn't avoid the other arrow. The second arrow hit his left chest. Although he was wearing black hammer armor, Li Yanqing used an armor-breaking arrow. The tip of the arrow was spindle-shaped, thin and long, and could be shot through the gaps of the armor.

The second arrow shot into Liu Gao's left chest with a "puff!", which made him scream in pain, but the real fatal one was the third arrow that was shot immediately. This arrow calculated the direction of Liu Gao's side. Just as Liu Gao was screaming with pain by the arrow in his left chest, the third arrow had arrived and hit Liu Gao's face. The arrow shot through Liu Gao's head. Liu Gao died immediately, and with a "puzzle!", the body fell from the horse.

Li Yanqing was as fast as a flying horse. He possessed himself and picked up the spear on the ground, stabbed Liu Gao's war horse hard on the buttocks. The war horse neighed and spread its four hooves, Li Yanqing's war horse ran. In this way, Liu Gao's war horse became a shield.

Li Yanqing leaned on the white horse and ran away. More than a dozen crossbow arrows flew past his head. Suddenly, Liu Gao's war horse neighed, and he was hit by three arrows in a row, and fell to the ground after losing his hooves.

He set off a spear, flew up and down, stabbing several people in a row. Although his marksmanship is far from comparable to archery skills, it is enough to deal with these minions.

At this time, dozens of minions were shocked. Commander Liu was caught in the arrow and was not sure about his life or death. This black face was extremely fierce. In a panic, Li Yanqing opened a gap and rushed through the blockade.

More than a dozen crossbowmen ran out of the woods, aiming at Li Yanqing's back. Li Yanqing turned around and shot five arrows in succession. One person would be caught in an arrow and screamed and fell to the ground. The other crossbowmen rushed to the ground. When they stood up again to look for it, Li Yanqing had already run away.

Liangshanbo was called Juyeze during the Sui and Tang Dynasties and was the largest lake in the Central Plains. Although the world changed several times, Liangshanbo was still the largest lake in the Central Plains and Shandong. Its waves are vast and endless. It spans Yunzhou and Jizhou, with a radius of nearly a thousand miles, and is also called the 800-mile Liangshanbo.

The reed marsh is covered with more than ten miles of land on the banks of Liangshan Lake, with hundreds of islands of all sizes and more than a dozen fishing villages.

Liangshan is located in the northwest corner of Liangshanbo. Liangshan is dozens of miles in radius, with a steep terrain, dense mountains and forests, and ravines. For more than a hundred years, Liangshan and Liangshanbo have been paradises for bandits. More than a dozen rioters of all kinds live in robbers, and they make a living by looting and fishing and hunting. Since Song Jiang went up the mountain, he has spent five years unifying all the rioters of Liangshanbo and reorganized into Liangshan Rebel Army.

In recent years, Yang Jian established Xicheng District in Yunzhou, frantically plundering land, water, mountain and forest resources, causing countless farmers to go bankrupt. More and more people fled into Liangshan and became bandits, causing the Liangshan rebel army to rise sharply, with 5,000 troops and controlling a population of more than 100,000.

In the afternoon, dozens of sentries from the southeast Road transported Liu Gao's body back to Liangshanpo. Ruan Xiaoqi, who was in the Zhaoxian Village in Liangshanpo, was shocked to receive the news and sent a pigeon letter to Liangshan Dazhai, and arranged a ship to send Liu Gao's body into Liangshan.
