Chapter 448 Li Kui Beheads the County Lieutenant Naked
The county magistrate was at a loss after hearing what his two men said, when the county lieutenant said, "Now this thief woman calls herself a general and recruits fugitives. She is roaming around on both sides of the Gu River outside the city. We have surrounded and suppressed her many times, but we still cannot stop her."

"Although we don't know where this group of people outside the city came from, they are not obedient citizens as they are besieging the county town. We can take advantage of their new arrival and not know their details. If we can kill their generals, we still have a chance to recruit them and use them to encircle and suppress the thieves in this weather."

When the county magistrate heard this, he was immediately moved.

This evil woman had a grudge against me for killing my son, and she specifically named me and wanted to kill me.

As long as I don't get rid of that thief, I won't have peace.

This thief woman spent all her family wealth to brew wine, buy swords, clothes, and win people's hearts. The young men in the market were all inspired by her, and they had always been kind to her. At first, they gathered only 200 people and called themselves the Tiger Army, but now there are more than a thousand people.

Unfortunately, this thief never engages the government troops in direct battle. She is elusive and roams around by land and sea, so her lair cannot be discovered. If we can subdue this group of people outside, plus the 2,000 strong men and brave men in the county, the harvest will be enough to go out of the city to search for the thief.

Therefore, the county magistrate said: "Lin County Commandant is worthy of his origin from the Yulin Army, and he is indeed brave. Please ask Lin County Commandant to go out of the city and kill the bandits. I will personally beat the drum to boost the momentum."

After hearing this, Lieutenant Lin bowed and left the city.

Li Kui shouted and cursed at the foot of the city, but no one responded. He then stripped naked in public and started urinating towards the city wall.

The soldiers on the city walls were all indignant when they saw this. Some skilled archers softened their bows by roasting them, and then they drew their bows and shot.

The sparse arrows, flying against the north wind, fell down before they reached Li Kui.

When Li Kui saw this, he became even more arrogant.

He kept laughing at the soldiers on the city walls, saying they were all cowards.

At this moment, the city gate suddenly opened, and Lieutenant Lin was seen holding a ring-handled sword and leading more than 300 soldiers to charge out of the city gate.

As soon as they formed their battle formation, they saw Li Kui standing naked in the snow. They were furious and shouted, "How dare you look down on me, you little brat?"

Li Kui saw the other side going into battle and laughed, "Fuck you, Grandpa is waiting for you."

After saying this, he grasped two axes in each hand, roared loudly, and it was like a thunderbolt in the sky, and he went straight to Lin County Lieutenant.

County Lieutenant Lin was worthy of his origin as he was from the Yulin Army. He also let out a loud roar and ran straight towards Li Kui.

Besides, Zhao Zhen and his men who were supervising the battle from behind were overjoyed when they saw the army in the city leaving the city. Zhao Zhen and his men thought that the spies who came to explore the misty world had been captured, and the city had been on alert for a long time.

After all, under Sanmu, there is no information that cannot be obtained.

Now it seems that the city gate is not blocked. With the help of three powerful and invincible general cannons, it is not difficult to blast open the city gate.

In front of the battle, Li Kui swung his two axes, and Lin County Lieutenant was unable to resist. After three rounds, he was already struggling. When the soldiers saw this, they shouted, and more than ten soldiers also brandished their ring-handled swords and rushed forward to help.

When Li Gun and Xiang Chong, who were standing by Zhao Zhen, saw this, they each stuck their long swords and fire spears into the ground, and threw their fallen leaf javelins and red silk flying knives. Before the dozen soldiers could get close to them, they had already shot the two men to the ground.

At the same time, Li Kui also chopped Lin County Lieutenant to the ground with an axe. Then he roared, swung his two axes, rushed into the opposite army formation, and started chopping blindly.

When Li Gun and Xiang Chong saw this, they hurriedly waved their barbarian shields and rushed forward to provide protection, killing the county defenders and forcing them to flee in all directions.

On the top of the city wall, the county magistrate saw that Lieutenant Lin was killed, so he ignored the soldiers below the city and ordered people on the top of the city wall to just shoot arrows.

Li Gun and Xiang Chong dragged Li Kui and ran back.

Here at Zhao Zhen, the war drums sounded.

Cannons, flying thunders, and catapults were launched at once.

The boulder stayed close to the tower. Liu Huiniang calculated that the flying thunder would fall half on the top of the city and half on the soldiers crowded below. The boiling gold juice and oil on the top of the city splashed everywhere, and the soldiers on the top screamed. The three-door invincible general cannon was even more powerful. Under Ling Zhen's adjustment, the three huge cannonballs fiercely bombarded the surrounding area of ​​the city gate, plowing through the soldiers below the city, leaving three bloody passages.

One of the bullets went through the crowd and hit the city gate, piercing through it in one go. The wood chips it stirred up knocked down the surrounding soldiers to the ground.

Looking at the open city gate, both sides were stunned for a moment.

Zhu Wu reminded Zhao Zhen: "Sir, the time to break the city is now."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen pointed the three-pointed, double-edged sword made of fine iron in his hand forward and shouted, "Kill!"

The crocodile war drums sounded desperately. Li Kui, Li Gun, and Xiang Chong heard the drums and turned around to attack, and the soldiers of the Yongyi Camp followed closely behind.

The soldiers on Gao Hu's side also obeyed the order and stepped forward.

Li Kui in front swung two axes, Xiang Chong and Li Gun each waved their shields to protect themselves, and they were like a ball of fire, rolling from the ground and rushing straight into the battle array. The top of the city was in chaos, and no one stopped them. They chopped down thirty or fifty soldiers who blocked their way and rushed into the city.

A group of soldiers followed the three tigers and rushed into the city.

On the street, when people heard that the city had been captured, they wished their parents had not given them two more legs. They dropped the battering rams and cannonballs in their hands and ran home for their lives.

Li Kui rushed into the city, holding two axes in his hands, looking for people to fight.

When Li Gun and Xiang Chong saw this, one of them grabbed Li Kui's arm and shouted, "Brother, don't harm the people. The general's military order is to show no mercy."

After hearing this, Li Kui struggled for a while, but was unable to break free from the two men's grip, so he gave up.

Within an hour, Zhao Zhen and his men entered the city, divided their troops to guard the city gates, the county government office, and the government treasury, and sent soldiers to patrol everywhere to prevent looting. They also searched for officials and soldiers in the city.

Afterwards, a notice was posted to reassure the people, informing the citizens in the city to stay at home and not go out.

Soldiers who surrender will be pardoned, but those who hide soldiers or county officials will be killed without mercy.

Zhao Zhen, Gao Hu and others all sat down in the county government office. Gao Yuan excitedly cupped his hands and said, "Thanks to the power of my sister-in-law, we were able to capture the city in less than half a day. I am very grateful."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "I never thought that today would be so smooth. It's a pity that the county magistrate and other officials have not yet found it."

Gao Hu said: "With the wealth and population of this county, your future journey will be much smoother, brother."

After saying that, he turned to Zhao Zhen and said, "Brother, I didn't expect you to have such a sharp weapon."

Zhao Zhen said: "I never thought that a cannon would hit the city gate. It is also God's will that Brother Gao Yuan will be able to achieve great things in the future."

Gao Yuan said: "It's a pity that we haven't found the county seal. I'm afraid the county magistrate will take it away. It would be better if we could find the county magistrate."

As he was talking, Wang Tianba and Tang Bin, who were patrolling outside the city, came in. After greeting each other, Wang Tianba said, "Sir, we have intercepted the carriages of gentry outside the city, a total of thirty to fifty people, come here to hand over the order."

Tang Bin also said: "Sir, I also intercepted more than ten people outside the city, among whom was the county magistrate who was carrying the county seal."

As he spoke, Tang Bin handed the county seal to Zhao Zhen.

"That's great." Gao Yuan exclaimed.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Gao Yuan said, "I have accomplished the goal in one battle, so I am naturally happy and congratulated."
