Chapter 1364 The Cage
"No way?" Xu Luqing was stunned.

"Yes!" Xu Jie frowned slightly.

Seeing Xu Jie frowned, Xu Luqing couldn't help but raise her heart again, and whispered:

"Father, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Xu Jie shook his head and let out a sigh of relief: "Luo Xin is a strange person. On the surface, he is in awe of His Majesty, even a little afraid. In fact, I have observed him all the time these years, and found that he is very respectful to His Majesty. Not much awe.

From the time he expelled the northern Tartars, he had resisted and failed to obey.As long as he thinks it is right, he will insist on it.Therefore, His Majesty's decree for him has no effect.He will still slaughter the eighteen villages.

In this way, when he returns to court, he will definitely lose his official position. This is the real purpose of being a father. "

Jiangxi.

Ninth village.

Liang Dalong sat on the big wooden chair in the middle, and on both sides sat six strong men, brothers who followed him through life and death.

"Brother, what are the officers and soldiers trying to do?" The first man on the left said with a puzzled face: "They are blocking the intersection, neither attacking nor retreating, what exactly are they trying to do?"

"Yeah, it's been more than five days."

"Have you found out how many of them there are?"

"It is impossible to detect at all. They are all hiding in the woods. They only send about 500 people to guard the intersection each time. When we send people over, they shoot arrows. They can't get close at all. The road is a thousand meters long, but there are only two people." Width."

"Brother, I don't think it's better than this." A person on the first chair on the right said: "Should we call other villages and various tribes and let them detour behind the officers and soldiers?"

Liang Dalong nodded and said: "I didn't expect that the officers and soldiers would hit our Ninth Village so quickly this time. It took only a little over a month. The last time Hu Zongxian only took down five cottages, it took several months. It made me unresponsive, and it was my fault."

"Big brother..."

Liang Dalong waved his hand, stopped the crowd and said: "When the eighth village fell, I sent people to inform the other village leaders and the chiefs of the tribes to come here to discuss the situation of resisting the government. The government will be happy for a few days."

"Big brother wise."

"Everyone, get ready. The distance between the village and the various tribes is different. There are still eight days before the meeting. It is estimated that in two or three days, people will start to arrive. This is a major event related to our mountain people. To all the village owners and tribes Patriarch, you must entertain him well."

"Yes!"

"How is Zhang Daoyuan?" Liang Dalong looked at the third position on the left.

"Send someone to watch him!" The man said with disdain on his face, "He was thinking of using the excuse of mobilizing his subordinates to leave the village. Brother, you are wise and mighty, let him send people to mobilize his subordinates to come down to the village and He is under house arrest in the cottage, otherwise he would really let this kid run away."

"Hehe..." Liang Dalong smiled and said: "He wants to use us, he thinks too simply. However, as far as I know, Zhang Daoyuan still has seven to eight thousand men, and the fighting power is very strong. If Zhang Daoyuan's If people can come, we have another chance to win."

"Big brother."

A figure rushed into the gate from far to near.

"Brother, a group of officers and soldiers appeared at the back gate of the cottage."

"What?" Da Longtou's face changed, and he stood up suddenly: "How many people are there?"

"I don't know, there are about 500 people guarding the other side of the thousand-meter mountain road, but I can see the shadows of people in the woods, I don't know how many people there are."

"Go and have a look."

Da Longtou strode towards the gate with an ugly expression on his face.

At the back gate of the Ninth Village, Da Longtou and several leaders climbed up and looked around, and saw about five hundred officers and soldiers standing guard at the other end of a narrow mountain road that was a kilometer long and two people wide, about a kilometer behind them. In the woods, there are many shadows, I don't know how many people there are.Da Longtou thought for a while and said:

"Second, send hundreds of brothers out to try it out."

"it is good!"

The second child turned around and jumped down. After a while, more than 500 people came out from the gate of the village. Each of them held a wooden shield in their hands and walked towards the opposite side along the narrow mountain road.

The officers and soldiers on the opposite side began to line up in an organized manner, forming a fan-shaped array at the end of the narrow mountain road. In this way, the mountain people walking on the mountain road not only have to resist the arrows shot from the front, but also resist the arrows from both sides. Arrows shot from oblique stabs.

When the mountain people entered the place of arrows, the officers and soldiers on the opposite side only assumed the posture of shooting arrows, but did not release arrows.Those mountain people held up wooden shields, looked at the densely packed bows and arrows on the opposite side, each and every one of them was terrified, and they moved forward step by step.

When entering the land of half an arrow, I suddenly heard a shout:
"put!"

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Five hundred arrows shot high into the air, covering the mountain people like a rain of swords.

"Chop chop chop..."

Most of the arrows hit the wooden shield, but some arrows still passed through the gap between the wooden shield and the wooden shield. The mountain people who were shot made a scream and fell off the cliff.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The second round of arrows shot out again, because the first round of arrows had already caused the mountain people to panic, this second round of arrows shot more mountain people, and more mountain people fell down cliff.

However, these mountain people are actually bandits, each of them is fierce, and at this time they are not far from the exit of the mountain road, those bandits are risking their lives, holding wooden shields and quickly approaching the exit of the mountain road.

"Okay!" The big leader in the high place in the cottage couldn't help cheering and said: "Let the brothers go out immediately and catch all the officers and soldiers on the opposite side."

"Brother, just watch."

"Brothers, come with me!"

With a presumptuous smile on Da Longtou's face, he turned his eyes away from his brother, and then looked at the other side of the mountain road, his expression changed.

At this time, I saw a hundred officers and soldiers put down their bows and arrows, and picked up their spears from the ground. The guns were very long. One hundred people lined up in 25 columns, and looked sharply at the opposite mountain road. .

"kill!"

The mountain road was only two people wide, and the two bandits rushed to the intersection with a wooden shield in one hand and a single knife in the other, shouting.

"kill!"

The four officers and soldiers yelled loudly, and the two officers and soldiers in the middle took half a step forward and made a forward lunge, stabbing straight with the spear in their hands. The bandit stabbed in the ribs.

"boom!"

The two officers and soldiers in the front stabbed the wooden shield fiercely with their long spears, deflecting the wooden shield, and the long spears pierced from both ribs smoothly pierced the ribs of the two bandits through the gap.
