The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 334 The Victor

"Ah..." Countless images flashed through Xi Maijun's painful mind, followed by fragmented voices.

The sounds of fighting and fleeing, and the fire that seemed to surround the entire world, the 3000 rebels first gathered like a vortex, and then retreated like a tide.

Fleeing backwards, the trees and ironic moon hung in the sky, the movement in the woods became louder and louder, someone shouted, ambushed, and then the morale of the entire team suddenly collapsed at this moment, After suppressing it for so long, it was originally relying on the present to support it, but when it broke at this time, it completely shattered.

The fight spread from the rear, and then the arrows flew out. Li Lei remembered that one shot hit his shoulder, followed by the fight, the pain, and the buzzing in his head. He could vaguely feel that he was lying on the ground. On the ground, there was a cold feeling, someone shouted "Shenggong... Shenggong", but the voice didn't sound for a long time, and then disappeared.

There was a burst of light, someone was walking, and a voice came from a distance from time to time, "Ah... grab another..."

For some reason, that voice made him feel extremely hateful, and in it, there was a kind of horror and chill that came from the bottom of his heart.Sometimes my eyes are slightly opened, and I can see the footsteps walking past, the hem of the robe.

"You have the guts to kill me!" A captured rebel shouted loudly.

"Okay." There were still people who made such a request, and naturally they wanted to satisfy him. Naturally, Hao Jingcheng would not let these people down.

After a while, a corpse was carried away, and the annoying voice came again: "Who else has such a request?"

The light was still changing, and his consciousness was becoming more and more clear. Li Lei finally woke up from the coma and struggled for a while, but his hands and feet should be bound. He tried to open his eyes, and someone shouted: "Sheng Gong, you are awake!" ?”

Li Lei opened his eyes and saw that the young man in a scholar's robe in front of him was talking to his companions around him. His eyes swept over. This was the center of a simple camp. The battle outside should not have been over yet, but it seemed quiet.

I was lying on the ground, surrounded by some cages where prisoners were imprisoned. Several captured brothers were tied up and thrown into them. Among them was Xi Maijun, but the cage door was not closed, and Xi Maijun was also tied behind his back. Kneeling over there, with a silent expression, dull eyes, not saying a word, probably can only use this form to deal with the scene in front of him.

"Papa..." The young man turned his head to this side, looked at him, clapped his palms, and said with a smile: "You're awake, can you see me now? We met for the first time... I just didn't expect it to be like this A scene."

The person in front of him was Hao Jingcheng - although this was their first meeting, Li Lei knew this in his heart.

"Sheng Gong has woken up, so who, Li Biao, hasn't tied up that side yet, go and have a look...why is it so slow..." Hao Jingcheng seemed a little dissatisfied and said.

"It's impossible, it's impossible...you can't guess it, you can't have so many people..." Li Lei growled in a low voice with disbelief on his face, all the tricks he had done were exhausted in the end.

"What?" Hao Jingcheng turned around and listened for a while, "People? Oh, they are people from the local government army. I asked them to ambush on both sides in advance. There are not many, about 3000 people on each side, so when you call It's not two thousand, but eight thousand, you only have three thousand, we have eight thousand..." Hao Jingcheng seemed to be in a good mood, as a winner, he said these things at this time, and he naturally had the intention of showing off to the loser mean.

Hao Jingcheng said a few words, and someone came to report the news, so he went to listen to it, then walked this way, lowered his head and drew a few strokes on a small notebook.

Suddenly, Hao Jingcheng raised his head with gentle eyes: "I can see that you are very strange... By the way, I forgot to tell you the situation. When you called before, we outflanked and killed some people, leaving about 2000 people Now we are stuck in the western mountain col, some of them may want to climb the mountain, but..."

After a pause, he went on to say, "Oh, pull it down. We will attack later, and everyone will die, but there is still a little time, so I can chat with you for a while..."

Hao Jingcheng put away the small notebook, leaned against a wooden table in the center of the venue, looked at this side: "Anyway, the matter is coming to an end, let's make a summary."

Hearing that flat tone, Li Lei had a premonition in his heart, his heart had completely sunk, and what he thought of now was actually not doubt.

"I, I...Even if it is a crime of treason, I will go to the capital for trial. You can't kill me privately!" Li Lei said with dry lips, he was indeed nervous.

Hao Jingcheng looked at him, his eyes were quiet, and he didn't answer. For a moment, he looked at the west side of the camp and began to speak: "Actually, the whole thing started like this..."

The night wind of early autumn blew over, soaked in the coldness far more ruthless than the severe winter, and blew past the camp. In the valley to the west of the camp, more than [-] people were blocked from exiting. The simple wooden platform accumulates doubts and despair.Before long, the grievances that have lasted for several months, the source of grievances that have occupied the rebels for several years, and the forces that originally had a huge body will all come to an end this night.

The light reflected the night, a simple wooden platform was being erected among the western mountain depressions, the torches of the search team were being extended to the side, and the soldiers trotted across the camp.

By the small square in the center of the camp, Li Lei, whose hands and feet were bound, was lying on his side on the ground like that. He and his fellow prisoners looked at the scholar at the wooden table not far away. speak.

"Actually, the whole thing started like this." Hao Jingcheng said softly, "You will feel puzzled and wonder why your actions will be guessed, not because you think too little, but because you think too much It's just too much."

Hao Jingcheng's voice came: "After your stronghold was destroyed, your strong men broke their wrists, and almost 4000 people escaped. It was the right move to reset my previous arrangement to zero. After that, you took many steps, burned the village, Fleeing in the mountains, dragging 2 people around, when you realized that burning the village would not work, you Naping County, and then came back to shoot one by one, and then took advantage of the situation in Junzhou to spread rumors and make everyone follow you Let's go... Ah, Xi Maijun, it seems that only you are interested in what I have to say..."
