Chapter 259: Assassination

"Kill them all!"

"Rush forward and fight quickly!"

"Kill—"

Countless people roared and rushed forward, and the completely lifeless style of play brought huge pressure to Qin Huaidao and the others, Rao is crossbow output was fast, the killing was amazing, and some of them couldn't be stopped, seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, especially some of them were about to rush up under the cover of the shield.

Qin Huaidao roared angrily: "Don't panic - steady!" Hit me with aim. ”

Some of the panicked soldiers settled down again and continued to shoot.

Qin Huaidao saw that the soldiers were almost exhausted, and there was no way to maintain continuous output, so he was ruthless and shouted: "All the crossbows are fired, and the battle to the death is gone!" ”

The soldiers shot in two batches to ensure that the output was uninterrupted, and when they heard Qin Huaidao's order, the other half of the soldiers on standby also shot one after another, and shot at the wave of enemies who rushed up.

Soon, everyone was lost, threw their crossbows, drew their sabers and clenched them, their eyes became feverish, and they became cold, staring at the enemy who rushed up.

When the enemy saw that the shooting had stopped, and knew that the enemy was empty, they became more and more frenzied, and rushed forward with strange screams.

Qin Huaidao came to the front of the soldiers, glanced at Luo Zhang, who was standing side by side with him, his fighting spirit was boiling, and he shouted: "Brothers, are you afraid? ”

There are also thousands of enemies, and all of them dare to play with their lives, and they fight fiercely, no one is afraid, but they feel ashamed when they say it, they are all silent, and they hold their knives tightly and wait solemnly.

Qin Huaidao was arrogant and laughed: "I'm afraid, what should I do?" ”

Everyone was a little stunned, and they all looked at Qin Huaidao, shouldn't they boost morale at this time, how can they still admit that they are afraid, isn't this a chaotic army?

Qin Huaidao continued to roar: "Kill them all, if you don't threaten, you won't be afraid." ”

"Kill them all!" Luo Zhang roared angrily.

The soldiers' eyes lit up, yes, there is nothing to be afraid of killing them all, the matter ignited instantly, and then shouted: "Kill them all, you won't be afraid!" ”

"Kill—"

The four hundred soldiers roared, and followed Qin Huaidao to launch a counter-charge towards the enemy, killing the sky.

Seeing that they were about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, suddenly, a deafening shout of killing came from the other side.

"Kill—"

20,000 troops rushed over with the tools of road construction, the black pressure pressed a large area, the momentum shook the sky, the enemy was frightened by the shouting and killing sound and stopped to watch, a little panicked, some people turned around and ran.

There is no hope of victory, and no one is not afraid of death!

Seeing that the surrendered army had finally made a choice, Qin Huaidao was relieved in his heart, and roared angrily: "Follow me, kill—"

A roar, full of momentum.

The next moment, Qin Huaidao entered the flock like a Menghu who had come out of the gate, the two knives flew up and down, left and right, cutting out white light, instantly putting down several of them, killing into the enemy group, Luo Zhang also quickly rushed up, fighting side by side, no one could stop the two from joining forces.

Four hundred soldiers also swarmed up, followed closely behind the two, blocking the enemies on both sides to the death, and did not give a chance to encircle.

At this moment, everyone is like a huge arrow shot into the enemy, unstoppable, blocking is death!

Soon, 20,000 troops arrived, and the mountains were all over the mountains, like a huge wave crashing down, drowning the enemy.

The enemy was completely panicked, scared, afraid to turn around, and no longer arrogant just now.

Qin Huaidao saw that the enemy was gone, his heart moved, and he roared angrily: "Brothers, rush up and catch the live mouth, don't let one go!" ”

"Catch it alive." The soldiers responded one after another, reminding each other.

Some people in the army understood Qin Huaidao's shouting, and hurriedly shouted in Goguryeo to remind their own people.

The battle of life and death instantly turned into a one-sided pursuit, with countless people rushing forward and pressing the enemy to the ground.

Qin Huaidao led the people straight to those enemy leaders, these people saw that the situation was not right, they had already turned around and fled, but soon found that the back road had been blocked by a descending army, and there was no way out, so they panicked one by one.

Qin Huaidao, who was chasing after him, was overjoyed when he saw this scene, and shouted: "Surrender and don't kill!" ”

The enemies around them heard the truth, and they didn't want to die, so they threw down their weapons, raised their hands, and squatted, and even those leaders lost their weapons one after another.

Qin Huaidao rushed up with people and shouted, "Tie them all up." ”

The soldiers swarmed up, pinned the men to the ground, and pulled out the enemy's belts without ropes.

Several generals rushed over, their eyes were complicated, Qin Huaidao saw the thoughts of these people, and said coldly: "Although I made mistakes before, but in the end, the support is meritorious, and the merits and demerits are offset, and I will not be held accountable, can I accept it?" ”

"Serve, serve!" Several people hurriedly said, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

A general said with a smile: "My lord, the brothers were confused before, but they didn't hurt people's hearts, just thinking that when the battle was over, they would take the silver and fly away, and go back to their hometown. ”

Hearing the word silver, Qin

Huai Dao suddenly thought of something, looked at the captured enemy leaders, and said, "Put aside the silver in advance." ”

Saying that, Qin Huaidao walked up to a person and asked coldly, "Tell me, who are you?" ”

"Spare your life, spare your life, we don't dare anymore." The other party hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Qin Huaidao frowned, and said coldly: "Don't want to say? ”

The other party was speechless for a while, bowing his head and not speaking, obviously taboo something.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it." Qin Huaidao was angry, how could he be polite to these people, and slashed down with a knife, which resulted in the other party, which frightened the other people's faces greatly.

Someone asked unwillingly: "Didn't the adults say that if you surrender, you won't kill?" ”

"The official said it, but if he surrendered, he didn't give an honest account, he should be killed, you answer, otherwise he will die." Qin Huaidao said coldly and walked towards the other party.

This person turned pale with fright, and he didn't have the slightest doubt that Qin Huaidao would be ruthless, and he didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the person just now, so he hurriedly said: "We are all heroes from all walks of life in Qinling, and my lord spares my life." ”

"The bullshit heroes are just a bunch of bandits, say, why sneak attack?" Qin Huaidao shouted, a knife on the other party's neck.

The cold blade made this person feel worried, and hurriedly said: "Someone came to contact and held a conference of heroes in the green forest, saying that the imperial court is building a road, and after this road is repaired, special troops will be arranged to patrol, which will cut off our livelihood, and the adults also know that we are relying on the ancient road to survive." ”

"This reason barely proves that you have a motive, but it is not enough." Qin Huaidao said coldly, with a little force in his hand, the sharp blade cut the opponent's neck, and a wisp of blood overflowed.

The other party's painful soul was in great danger, for fear that Qin Huaidao would use his strength in the next moment, and hurriedly explained: "That person looked like he was not small, and he was generous, each of them gave a hundred yuan of settlement expenses, and the leader of one thousand yuan, and promised to accept us as domestic slaves after the matter was completed, and give us an identity, so that we don't have to mess around in this Qinling Mountains in the future." ”

"Who's that man?" Qin Huaidao asked.

"No, I don't know, I'm blind."

"If you don't want to say yes, then don't say it." Qin Huaidao said coldly, and the killing intent exploded.

The other party was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted: "Don't, don't kill me, I really don't know what it's called, I just look extraordinary." ”

"Does anyone know?" Qin Huaidao's cold gaze swept over everyone, everyone lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at Qin Huaidao at all, Qin Huaidao said coldly: "If you know, as long as you tell the identity of the person, you will be released on the spot, and you will never be held accountable afterwards." ”

However, after waiting for a while, no one came forward.

Qin Huaidao's heart was cold, and he said to a soldier beside him: "Go get some paper and some charcoal." ”

"Obey!" The other party hurriedly went.

Qin Huaidao continued to interrogate, and learned that almost all the bandits in Qinling were here, which meant that it was a surprise to wipe out the bandits in Qinling and eliminate hidden dangers.

Not long after, the soldier brought paper and charcoal, Qin Huaidao asked people to find a wooden board to cushion, and said to the person in front of him: "Describe the appearance of that person." ”

Where did the other party dare to hide it, he quickly said the truth.

Qin Huaidao asked while sketching, and from time to time motioned to the other party to see if there was anything wrong, whether the nose was high, whether the eyebrows were thin, etc., if there was a mistake, it was immediately modified, and gradually, a portrait jumped on the paper, looking a little familiar - isn't this Lu Jiansheng?

Fan Yang Lu Shi and Lu Jiansheng have complete motives.

"Is that him?" Luo Zhang also recognized it, was angry, and said murderously: "It's actually this bastard, I'll take someone to kill him." ”

"Don't worry!" Qin Huaidao said coldly, put away the portrait, and looked at several generals who had surrendered.

Several people hurriedly stepped forward, Qin Huaidao said: "There are a total of thirteen bandits, each den is in a different location, you send thirteen teams over, each with five hundred people, bring the captured weapons to clear the bandit den, and bring back finance, food and other materials, can you do it?" ”

"Please rest assured, I promise to do it." One of the generals hastened to make a statement.

"Take them with you, they'll have to be brought back to me." Qin Huaidao pointed at the bandit leader and said coldly: "Lord Ben will give you another chance to prove yourself, if you can't do it well, or you run away with the loot, you don't need Lord Ben to remind you of the consequences, right?" ”

"No, we know what to do." Everyone expressed their opinions.

There were not enough manpower, and the bandit dens were scattered and scattered, Qin Huaidao could only use these to lower the army, and advised: "Put down the weapons you have picked up, take these bandits to dig stones to atone for their crimes, and carry out the order." ”

Capital crimes can be avoided, living crimes cannot be escaped, and free labor is not in vain.

"Whoa!" Several generals hurriedly clenched their fists and hurriedly arranged to go.

Soon, the troops lost their weapons, picked up their road construction tools, and escorted the bandits to the valley, and the thirteen teams each took the bandit leader to leave, Luo Zhang watched everyone leave, and said uneasily: "Uncle, they ......"

Qin Huaidao raised his hand to interrupt, and also looked away

The team that opened said after a moment of silence: "Arrange people to follow, two people with a team, there is a response, can not be exposed, if you find that you have escaped, contact the nearest defenders to exterminate." ”

"Understood." Luo Zhang understood and immediately arranged for someone to follow.

Every ancient road in the Qinling Mountains is a pass, you can't escape, even if you walk through the forest and the mountain road, there is a city outside the Qinling Mountains, there is no identity, the language is incomprehensible, it will be exposed as soon as it appears, and you can't escape at all, but you still have to guard against it.

"Clean up the battlefield and continue to build roads." Qin Huaidao dropped a sentence and was about to leave, but he suddenly thought of something, and asked in surprise: "What about Yu Chi Baolin?" ”

There was a big battle just now, and I didn't pay attention to it.

Luo Zhang hurriedly explained: "The enemy suddenly attacked, he led people to resist and was wounded by arrows, if he hadn't blocked it, we would have suffered more casualties, I asked people to escort to the Dawang Station, which should be at the post station at this time." ”

Qin Huaidao's face changed, and he hurriedly got on his horse and rushed to the Dawang Station, there were several people from the patrol department guarding the gate of the post station, holding knives, looking a little uneasy, and he breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing that the person was Qin Huaidao, and hurriedly came up to greet him, Qin Huaidao asked: "Where is Lord Yuchi?" ”

"Inside, the arrow has been pulled out and drugged, but the person is unconscious." One person hurriedly said.

"Lead the way."

Qin Huaidao turned over and dismounted, followed in, and saw the unconscious Yu Chi Baolin in a wing room, the arrow wound was in the chest, and a simple bandaging had been done, but his face was red, his breath was short, and his forehead was a little hot, and he hurriedly said: "Quick, go find Luo Zhang to get some liquor, he knows where it is." ”

This time, Qin Huaidao went out and brought some liquor for spare time and handed it over to Luo Zhang for safekeeping.

One of the soldiers said yes and hurried away.

"Take care of him, I'll go pick some herbs." Qin Huaidao dropped a sentence and hurriedly went out, if Yu Chi Baolin had three long and two short, he would not have the face to explain to Yu Chi Gong, as for Fan Yang and Lu Jiansheng, first slowly, cure Yu Chi Baolin.

Rushing out of the post station, Qin Huaidao looked around, and chose a direction with a ravine to rush over, the ravine was damp, the plants were dense, and there were all kinds of healing herbs to stop bleeding, Qin Huaidao didn't care about the thorns along the way, and the two knives flew over, opening a road straight to the bottom of the ravine.

There is a stream at the bottom of the ditch, and after walking along the stream for a distance, Qin Huaidao has an extra handful of healing herbs in his hand, and when he returned to the post station, he saw that the liquor had been brought, so he asked the post station to bring a white cloth, boil water, and knead the herbs into a paste, and then opened Yu Chi Baolin's body to bandage.

A stream of black blood gushed out of the wound, which frightened the soldiers' faces drastically, Yu Chi Baolin had three longs and two shorts, and everyone couldn't escape.

Qin Huaidao skillfully cleaned the wound with a boiled cloth dipped in water, and saw that the wound was triangular, and this kind of wound could not be healed, so he hurriedly asked someone from the post station to bring needles and threads, and after disinfecting the wound with liquor, he broke off Yu Chi Baolin's big mouth uneasily, stuffed it into a piece of cloth, and then stitched it up.

"Ahh

Yu Chi Baolin woke up with a scream of pain.

Qin Huaidao hurriedly shouted: "Don't move, endure it, bite the cloth in your mouth if it hurts." ”

Yu Chi Baolin recognized it as Qin Huaidao, his heart was determined, knowing that his life had a chance to be saved, he nodded, time was pressing, Qin Huaidao stopped talking nonsense, and quickly stitched up, every stitch was a pain that pierced his heart, Yu Chi Baolin's painful forehead was full of sweat, but he couldn't bear it.

"Somebody help wipe the sweat." Qin Huaidao reminded while skillfully tying the knot.

After the wound was sewn up, Qin Huaidao applied the herbal ointment to the wound, then wrapped it in a cloth, lost a breath, and saw that Yu Chi Baolin had fainted in pain, and told the soldiers around him: "The four of you are responsible for taking good care of Lord Yu Chi, wet the cloth with warm water, and wipe your body more to cool down, especially the forehead, armpits and feet, understand?" ”

"Obey!" The four of them hurriedly agreed.

Qin Huaidao saw that the four of them were a little dazed, obviously not very understanding, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, where do a bunch of rough men know how to take care of people, the official comes by himself, goes to stand guard outside, and no one is allowed to come in without an order." ”

Everyone understood this order as soon as they heard it, and hurried out of the house.

Qin Huaidao picked up the cloth and wiped his body for Yu Chi Baolin, and did physical cooling, the wound was not a fatal position, and the problem was not big, but the fever was different, and the consequences if it didn't go down were very serious.

After a busy time, Qin Huaidao sat down to rest, and Lu Jiansheng's shadow flashed in his mind.

This bastard actually dared to contact the Qinling Mountain bandits to sneak attack, this account must be calculated, and no one can stop it.

Seeing that Yu Chi Baolin's breathing gradually calmed down and his forehead was not so hot, Qin Huaidao breathed a sigh of relief, and heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and soon, Luo Zhang's voice sounded at the door, without an order, the soldiers at the door did not dare to let him go, Qin Huaidao shouted: "Come in." ”

"Uncle!" Luo Zhang came in and shouted, looking at Yu Chi Baolin.

Qin Huaidao nodded and said in a low voice: "The wound has been treated, whether he can survive it depends on his own willpower, why are you here?" ”

"The road has started to be repaired over there, it's not a big problem, I'm not at ease, come and see, Lu Jiansheng's bastard is too vicious, what should we do?" Luo Zhang looked at Qin Huaidao unwillingly.

"There is only one side of the bandits, no physical evidence, no

Bring down Fan Yang Lu. Qin Huaidao said.

"Shall we leave it at that?"

"Of course it's impossible to forget it, if he plays yin, so will Lao Tzu."

Qin Huaidao said coldly, with a cold light in his eyes, he looked out of the door, and said in a low voice: "The people here can't be mobilized, they will be exposed if they move, and I can't leave, you leave overnight, secretly sneak back to Qinjiazhuang to find Brother Xue, and let him lead the Zhuang team to act, and attack Fanyang Lu's Zhuangzi outside Chang'an City at night, that is one of their paper-making bases, burn it for me, take away the silver, and fake it as a bandit looting, understand?" ”

"Understood, what about the scene?"

"I'm staring at the scene, go ahead, I must not reveal my whereabouts." Qin Huaidao whispered.

Luo Zhang nodded and hurriedly went.

Qin Huaidao originally wanted to make this breath himself, but the stakes were very high, there must be alibi evidence, the enemy likes to play yin, and he can't fall into the handle.

After observing for a while, seeing that Wei Chi Baolin was quite stable, Qin Huaidao came out and said a few words to the soldiers, found the person in charge of the post station to ask for paper and pen, wrote down the situation, sealed it, and handed it to a patrol sergeant: "Set off immediately, send it to Chang'an, and hand it over to the saint." ”

There was such a big incident, and hundreds of Lin Wei died, so I can't help but report it, as for how the imperial court deals with Qin Huaidao, I don't bother to care, but I must find Fan Yang Lu's family to collect some interest, and then clean it up when I have time.

"Obey!" The other party hurriedly agreed, took it and put it away closely, and drove away.

Qin Huaidao hit the horse and returned to the road repair site, seeing that everyone was busy, the corpses of the bandits were all over the mountain, no one cared, several interns were measuring the width, thinking that there was no shadow when they fought before, they came to one person and asked, "Where were you before?" ”

"I've seen adults." The other party hurriedly saluted and explained: "The enemy is coming, Lord Wei Chi led the team to block it, and seeing that we and the others are all weak scholars and have no strength to fight, they let me hide in the surrender army."

"I see, keep working." Qin Huaidao said and found the first lieutenant of the patrol department, pointed to the corpses of the bandits all over the mountain and said: "Draw some people to clean the battlefield, and the corpses will be thrown down to feed the wolves in a ravine, and the weapons will be concentrated, and the property found on the body will not be moved, and the brothers who died in the war will be given a pension." ”

"Your Excellency is benevolent, thank you!" The other party hugged his fists, said gratefully, and hurried away.

Qin Huaidao rode a horse to patrol, the construction was in an orderly manner, they were all born as soldiers, and they had a strong ability to bear it in their hearts, and they were not affected by the battle just now, and they dared to do what they dared to do and continue to do something.

It didn't take long for Qin Huaidao to come to the front of the stone road paved, standing on the horse and looking at it, it was not far from Huayang Pass under his feet, it should be paved before dark, and the whole road would be connected, as for Yangxian, it should be already paving cement at this time, according to this efficiency calculation, it will take less than a month to repair from Yangxian County to Luogu Pass, and then it will be along the Heihe River.

The coast is all about re-digging mountains and opening roads, and I am afraid that it will not be repaired in two or three months.

"Da Da Da!"

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and then an army rushed along the official road, led by Zhou Hu of Huayang Pass, who saw Qin Huaidao and hurriedly shouted: "My lord, are you okay?" ”

"Why are you here?" Qin Huaidao said.

"My lord, the support of the lower officials is late, the crime deserves death, the mountains are high and dense, blocking the view, if it weren't for the Orion to report, I'm afraid I wouldn't know now, my lord, what's going on here?" Zhou Hu hurriedly explained.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, in the future, take the wolf smoke as the number, it's okay here, take the troops back, and help the officer watch the road repair situation over there in Huihe Town." Qin Huaidao said, Zhou Hu guards Huayang Pass, and he can't rush to send troops under the unclear situation, and he has no obligation to support, so it's already good to be able to rush over after hearing the news.

"Obey." Zhou Hu said gratefully and led the team back.

After lunch, the road builders went into the tents to rest, the construction site quieted down, a caravan came slowly, nervously looking at the tents all over the mountains, and the patrol soldiers, their faces were full of unease, Qin Huaidao greeted him curiously and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The leader saw that Qin Huaidao was wearing a three-grade official uniform, and hurriedly said: "I've seen you, we are a horse gang from Hanzhong, and we carry some grain to Chang'an to sell, and we have official citations and certificates. As he spoke, he quickly took out some vouchers.

Qin Huaidao motioned for a soldier to step forward and take it, looked at it, covered with the big seal of Nanzheng County, came to a horse and said, "Open it and take a look." ”

The person in charge of the caravan hurriedly signaled to open it, it was white rice, not wheat, wheat is produced in Chang'an, rice is scarce, and it can be sold at a good price if it is shipped over, Qin Huaidao is also tired of eating noodles, and is about to change the taste, and says: "How much is it, what is the price?" ”

"Lord Hui, a total of 1,000 stones, 100 stones and 100 Wen."

The fine noodles are five wen and one bucket, fifty wen and one stone, and the polished rice costs one hundred wen and one stone, which is twice as expensive, but Qin Huaidao still wants to stay to improve the taste, and said: "You don't need to transport it to Chang'an, stay it." ”

The face of the person in charge of the caravan changed greatly, he knelt down with a puff, and pleaded in horror: "My lord, my lord can't help it, this is all the belongings of the grass people, and if they can't get back the silver, the whole family will starve to death." ”

Qin Huai said

The other party misunderstood, and quickly helped him up, while saying: "Don't get me wrong, it's not easy to sell grain, I will give you silver, just count it as one hundred wen and one stone, and unload ......."

Before the word "bar" came out, Qin Huaidao's scalp suddenly became numb, and the warning was great, which was the intuition of threats honed by countless life and death battles.

The next moment, Qin Huaidao instinctively burst back.

But it was still a step too late, and the face of the caravan leader was still the panic and nervousness just now, full of cold killing intent, and a short crossbow flew out of his sleeve, as fast as lightning.

"Poof!" The short crossbow sank into Qin Huaidao's abdomen.

"Protect your lordship!" The people of the patrol department were stunned when they saw this scene and rushed up.

The head of the caravan looked as cold as a poisonous snake, and when he saw it, he laughed strangely: "Hahaha, kill it!" ”

The coachmen, who had been looking at the honest hand, took out short knives from their arms, their eyes were as cold as wolves, and rushed to the side.

Qin Huaidao endured the severe pain and stood firm, saw that the wound was bleeding, the wound was paralyzed, obviously the short crossbow was poisonous, careless, damn sympathy, anger rose to the sky, and shouted: "Catch them all, don't run a single one." ”

"Kill—" The patrol department yelled and rushed forward, all mad.

The onlookers in the tent also realized that something was wrong, if Qin Huaidao was killed, no one would survive, this time there was no need to mobilize, and they rushed forward one by one.

Qin Huaidao tried his best to wave at a patrol officer, and the other party hurriedly rushed over, looking at the wound nervously, his voice trembling: "My lord, you ......"

"What's the panic, go to the post station and bring the liquor and the rest of the herbal ointment, quick!" Qin Huaidao admonished, his voice was weak, his body couldn't lift up at all, and he wanted to deflate the ball.

"Whoa!" The lieutenant hurriedly agreed, beat the horse and galloped away.

Qin Huaidao felt a phantom appear in front of him, and his feet suddenly became weak, and he sat down on the ground.

"It's such a domineering poison, are you going to die?" Looking at the wound, Qin Huaidao smiled bitterly.
