Chapter 271 Ambush

After returning to the mansion, King Lu immediately took off his civilian clothes and put on his armor.

The magistrate of Shacheng County rushed over and said, "Sir, everyone is ready. Blackbeard from Whirlwind Mountain and Liu Dadao from Lanshigou have gathered hundreds of people and are already blocking the road."

"it is good."

King Lu said with a dark face: "Remember, wait until you leave Shacheng before taking action. Don't let people say that you ate my food and died in my house."

"It will save you the trouble of lowering your official rank."

The magistrate of Shacheng County said: "Sir, I heard that the man surnamed Li is very good. He is not inferior to the soldiers of the North."

"Ah."

King Lu sneered and said: "I have already put chronic poison in their food. After a long time, their hands and feet will probably become weak. How can a group of soft-legged shrimps have the right to fight with me?"

Someone is coming. "

He suddenly shouted and said: "Bring me my weapon."

A long knife fell into King Lu's hand. King Lu took a silk handkerchief and gently wiped away the dust on it.

The sword is immortal and has a faint brilliance.

"Old man, follow me to the battlefield again." King Lu said in a deep voice.

At the beginning, he and King Rong, a pair of brothers, were Wang Baxian's personal bodyguards. One of them carried a sword and the other led a horse, and they followed Wang Baxian all the way to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

"My lord, do you plan to go to the battlefield in person?" The magistrate of Shacheng County was shocked, "I can just leave this matter to my subordinates. I will definitely put Li Qingyang's head in front of the prince's case?"

King Lu shook his head: "When the six vassal kings besieged the capital, I followed His Majesty in the charge without any fear. This time, Li Qingyang can make me afraid.

Haha, I want to capture Li Qingyang alive and cut off his head with my own hands to avenge my brother. "

The magistrate of Shacheng County knew that what King Lu liked to mention most was what happened in the eighteenth year, and everyone's ears were calloused.

However, since King Lu mentioned it, his subordinates had to take up the matter, otherwise they would be too incompetent to do things.

He bent down, took a step closer, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, you must have a good talk with your subordinates."

"Hahaha."

King Lu said: "Let's set off first, and we'll talk to you on the way."

On the border of Shacheng County, Sheep Valley.

The road here is narrow and there are cliffs on both sides. Pedestrians passing here have to go straight, so it is called Sheep Driving Valley.

At this time, on the cliffs on both sides of the valley, a group of people were quietly lurking.

They are two groups of bandits headed by Liu Dadao and Blackbeard. Although they occupy the mountain as kings, they rarely go down the mountain to plunder. They are even very popular among the people nearby.

The bandits are just their disguise, and their true identity is the private soldiers raised by King Lu.

This place is not far from the capital, and King Lu has been secretly operating it for many years. Since Wang Ba stopped going to court, the minds of the princes in the world have changed, and the guards who used to carry swords are no longer willing to stay under others for a long time.

Contrary to rumors, Blackbeard did not have a beard on his face. He was tall and even somewhat handsome in appearance.

He was originally a sheep herder, but was later rescued by King Lu and adopted as his adopted son. He has been loyal to him ever since.

He led his men in ambush on the mountain, keeping his eyes on the road down the mountain.

"Brother, someone is coming."

The second boss next to him whispered.

Blackbeard looked intently and saw several people coming along the trail. They were riding horses, wearing brocade clothes, and what was more conspicuous were the silver knives on their waists.

"It's the Silver Blade Guard."

The bandits around him suddenly became excited. If he could kill a few silver sword guards, he would be able to show his face in the banditry.

"Brother, do you want to take action?"

"slow."

Blackbeard waved his hand and said: "They are just scouts exploring the road. Please inform Liu Dadao not to act rashly, so as not to alert the enemy."

Immediately, someone waved a flag on the cliff and reported to Liu Dadao in the distance.

"I didn't expect the Silver Blade Guards to be so professional and even have scouts in the team." His subordinates sighed with emotion.

"This is someone close to the emperor. He is well-informed. Naturally, he is different from the caravans we have robbed before." Blackbeard said, "But sooner or later, we will be as professional as the Silver Blade Guards."

"hey-hey."

There were a few laughs from the crowd.

The Silver Sword Guard at the foot of the mountain came to the Sheep Driving Valley and frowned subconsciously when he saw the terrain in front of him.

This place is perfect for an ambush.

If someone is planning to do harm to himself, he will definitely not miss this place unless he is a fool.

At this moment, a few magpies suddenly flew up in the mountains and made a few sounds in the air.

"I'll go back and report the news. You continue to move forward without making any noise."

"Yes."

The scout team was divided into two groups, one forward and one backward.

At this moment, the team led by Yang Liang was still moving slowly.

"Sir, there is a valley ten miles ahead, and there seems to be an ambush." ​​The scout reported hurriedly.

Yang Liang and Wu Dao looked at each other and nodded to each other.

Sure enough, what was supposed to come came.

"Sir, please wait here for a moment. I'll take the people there and come back soon." Wu Dao had murderous intent in his eyes.

"Alright."

Yang Liang said: "I will prepare fine wine here to celebrate with Wu Baotou later."

Wu Dao whistled, and the order was quickly passed on. The team, which had been lazy just now, like a spring outing, quickly gathered together.

They abandoned their carriages and servants and chose fast horses and swords. Led by Wu Dao, they quickly moved forward.

Yang Liang mingled with the servants in the team, guarding the supplies and supplies.

The Silver Blade Guards killed him like a whirlwind.

Not long after, they had arrived in front of the sheep driving valley.

Blackbeard and Liu Dadao on the mountain suddenly became energetic. They opened their eyes wide and stared at Wu Dao, the leader.

The prey comes near the trap and immediately begins to close the net as soon as it falls into the trap.

However, Wu Dao stopped.

He stood on the horse, raised his head, and scanned the surrounding jungle.

Suddenly, Blackbeard lowered his head as if he had been stabbed in the eye by a needle.

He seemed to have been discovered.

Impossible, absolutely impossible?

The place you choose is extremely secretive, and it is impossible for the other party to discover it.

"There, there..."

Wu Dao quickly pointed to several places.

He is also a master at arranging troops. When encountering such terrain, he can use his eyes to scan and know where is suitable for an ambush.

If the opponent didn't set up an ambush at the right place, it would be too amateurish, and it would be even less worth mentioning.

Blackbeard was still hoping for luck, thinking that it would be impossible for the other party to discover him.

However, it was not until he saw several fast horses approaching that Blackbeard realized that the matter had been revealed.

"No, we were discovered." He yelled.

"Brother, what should we do now?" his subordinate asked anxiously.

"What else can I do? Just take the guy and do it."

Blackbeard yelled and rushed over with a big knife.

After a burst of arrows and the sound of gongs, Blackbeard led the people and rushed out. Yang Liang raised his head on the carriage, and suddenly heard a sound in the distance, and he subconsciously raised his head.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Since coming into contact with King Lu, he has been a little too enthusiastic.

This made Yang Liang, who was used to seeing the evil in people's hearts, subconsciously become vigilant. He, a mere seventh-grade patrolling envoy to the north, did not seem worthy of the other party's generous treatment.

Moreover, he also killed the other party's brother.

Sure enough, he is waiting for himself here.

Listening to the noise in the distance, Yang Liang judged that the two sides had already started fighting, but he didn't know how the Silver Blade Guards were fighting.

"Don't worry, sir. My master is very good at martial arts and rarely encounters opponents." A groom leading the horse said.

Yang Liang nodded and suddenly felt a little bored, so he played bone games with a few servants.

This is a rounded sheep bone, carried with you, thrown from the air, and the outcome is determined by head and tail.

This kind of gambling game is very common in the capital. Whether it is a trafficker or a nobleman, they all like to play when they are bored.

With Yang Liang's skill, he could definitely throw it every time. However, today he seemed a little absent-minded and frequently looked into the distance.

In front of the valley not far away, the Silver Knife Guards had already started fighting against the ambushing bandits.

Blackbeard held a big knife and took the lead, making a chirping sound.

If you want to be the leader of a bandit, strategy is secondary. You must first be ferocious and evil enough to convince the crowd.

Suddenly, an arrow flew past his cheek. A bandit was hit by an arrow in his eye and fell straight to the ground.

Blackbeard was startled, Silver Blade Guard's arrow skills must have been too accurate.

Really professional enough.

At this time, Silver Blade Guards had counterattacked, and Wu Dao also took the lead.

The long sword on his waist was unsheathed, and he slashed through it. The bandit who rushed in front of him was immediately cut in half.

His upper body was crooked on the ground, his intestines and stomach were leaking out, and his lower body took two more steps forward.

Ah!

Blackbeard screamed as if the woman were in bed.

He had killed people before and thought he was bold and cunning, but he had never seen anyone kill like this.

I usually kill chickens and dogs without doing this.

Wu Dao was holding a breath in his heart, a feeling of anger that would be unpleasant unless it was vented.

This group of bandits happened to be the perfect target to vent their anger on.

Kill, kill, kill!

Peel off their skin, dig out their eyes, and stuff them with stones.

It's not just Wu Dao who thinks this way, the members of Silver Knife Guard are more or less perverts.

Blackbeard's legs were trembling. Although he was brave, he was still a human being and could not be compared with an animal.

"The wind is blowing hard."

He let out a long roar and gave the order to retreat in time. Before leaving, he watched Liu Dadao's stomach being torn open.

The anger in Wu Dao's heart had not yet been completely vented. He wiped the blood on his face, and there was a chill in his eyes.

If the two sides fight against each other, he will not be afraid even if the opponent's number is half greater.

As the leader of the Silver Blade Guard, he has this confidence.

I am afraid that the other party will not fight a tough battle with me, but choose to fight a war of attrition with me.

First, I have just arrived and am not familiar with the nearby terrain. Second, elites are also human beings, and their physical strength will also be consumed. If everyone starts to feel tired when it gets dark, the team's combat effectiveness will plummet.

When the time comes, it is not impossible for the team to be killed by a group of bandits.

It would be too shameful for the dignified Silver Sword Guard to die in this inhospitable place.

The best countermeasure now is to leave this place, meet up with Yang Liang, and bypass this place of right and wrong.

However, if he returns without success, he will be laughed out of Yang Liang.

Wu Dao felt dissatisfied and decided to fight these bandits. As long as he was careful, he should be able to minimize the casualties.

Ten miles away, Yang Liang was gathering with a group of servants. Because of his absent-mindedness, Yang Liang also lost more than he won.

He suddenly threw down a piece of silver and said, "It's all yours, go down and divide it yourself."

The servants couldn't help but be overjoyed and bowed one after another: "Thank you, sir, for the reward."

Don't forget that these people are all servants of eunuchs, but eunuchs often spend a lot of money. In addition, the power of eunuchs was at the height of their power in the past, so this group of servants is also majestic and has people to take care of them in daily life.

Then the people who serve them can also pretend to be powerful...

Yang Liang felt as if he had entered an infinite loop mode.

He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, with some worry in his eyes.

"My lord, my lord..."

A groom rushed to report: "It seems that a group of people are coming behind us, and they are all holding weapons."

"What, did you see who it was?" Yang Liang asked.

"That's not true."

Yang Liang didn't waste any time and hurried over. He looked into the distance and saw a group of people moving forward along the official road.

The leader was riding on a horse, wearing armor and holding a broadsword in his hand.

Who else could this be if he wasn't King Lu?

Yang Liang was surprised. He didn't expect that King Lu would bring people here in person.

Now that only he and a group of servants doing rough work are left in the team, he has no advantage at all when it comes to fighting.

"Sir, what should we do now?"

"Don't be anxious, gather people together first and arrange the baggage into a temporary fence."

"Yes."

Yang Liang gave the order, and the team began to move. Before they could make arrangements, King Lu's team arrived in a hurry.

When he saw Yang Liang in the middle of the road, King Lu was also startled and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"

"It turns out to be His Royal Highness Prince Lu."

Yang Liang smiled and said: "Could it be that His Highness is reluctant to leave me and wants to send you off again and again?"

King Lu smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, yes, I feel bad when I think of you leaving. By the way, where are the others? Why do you seem to be the only one here?"

"They are nearby and will come back from time to time. Then we can have wine and talk with the prince."

"It's easy to talk about."

King Lu said twice, looking left and right, growing more and more suspicious in his heart.

After a while, a man suddenly ran over from the distant forest and whispered a few words in front of King Lu's horse.

"Louder, I can't hear you."

"Prince, there was a fight between the Silver Blade Guards and the bandits in front of us, and many people died."

"This……"

King Lu looked at Yang Liang and said with a smile: "Master Li, it turns out that you are just empty-handed?"

"The boss is often empty-handed."

Yang Liang said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Lu, is dressed so neatly. Is he going to suppress bandits?"

"Yes, I just want to suppress the bandits, and I would like to ask Mr. Li to make way."

"Suppressing bandits is a big deal, but I seem to have heard that the vassal king left the station privately and was punished for rebellion." Yang Liang said lightly.
