Chapter 337: Breaking the odds with the righteousness (2)
search!?
When this order was issued to the crowd, more than ten people hidden in it were all shivering, and they suddenly realized that something was wrong.
These people all wanted to cause trouble in the county government, which caused the entire Jinning County to fall into chaos, so they naturally brought a lot of guys. Some brought fire, some brought caltrops that could scatter hurt people on the ground... but more were weapons such as short swords. Once this was found...
Thinking of this, no one could be calm and composed. With ordinary people around and officials on both sides of the road, even if they wanted to discard these weapons, they would not be able to hide their eyes and ears, as that would only reveal their own identity.
And at this stern, two guilty men had already chosen to escape. Seeing the officers coming forward and the people were avoiding each other, they twisted their bodies and ran towards the rear. While running, they had already shown their weapons and shouted loudly: "Do away!" A few whistles, many of the people next to them were frightened and screamed, and hurriedly dodged to the side, thus creating space for them to break through.
In just a moment, the two of them had rushed out of the crowd and ran forward at a faster speed. Then, two strings were heard.
The sound of the sharp arrow breaking through the air was replaced by the screams and screams that entered the body. The archers on the side almost did not hesitate. As soon as the two left the crowd, they had released two arrows and accurately hit the legs and feet of the two. One was bent in the knee and the other was thigh, causing them to fall to the ground and scream, but they couldn't get up again.
At the same time, another soldier rushed out from both sides, two controlled one, and several knives quickly put them on their necks, making the two people who wanted to escape dared not resist at all.
This change was really like a rabbit rising and falling, extremely fast, but the two bloody lessons had completely shocked the audience, making all the people dare not have any abnormal movements, and even the low complaints disappeared. If they had not believed that the soldiers dared to take action just now, the facts were already in front of them.
Not only those people, but also Bai Xian and they were also frightened. Such ruthlessness and decisiveness were beyond their expectations. As for other guys who also wanted to try to break through, they were no longer afraid to move at this moment. Such a miserable ending was even more unbearable than being searched for weapons.
At this moment, the situation was completely controlled, and the county magistrates also came back from their shock and continued to step forward. According to the wishes of the county magistrate, they began to search the people present. None of the Han barbarians were spared. The only exception was Bai Xianhe and his party who had been recognized.
With the archers watching and guarding, the remaining thieves did not dare to make any resistance. Soon, they were caught one by one. In the face of evidence of weapons and other items found, these people could not even shout out a word of injustice. Just come to the county government for trial. What are you doing with such a weapon? In addition to hurting people and causing trouble, will there be a second reasonable purpose?
In just over half an hour, more than a dozen thieves mixed among the ordinary people, including Han and Barbarian thieves, were all taken down, causing almost no trouble to the scene.
Seeing this result, Yin Taibei was afraid and felt even more moved: "That Lord Li is a good strategy. Such a method of turning passive into initiative is indeed much more smooth than those strategies in the past!"
All this comes from Li Ling's advice, because he knew very well what the biggest trouble was for the government now, that is, they did not know which people in the city were rebellious accomplices such as Luo Tian Sect, which made them unable to prevent it. After all, most of the people in the city had no intention of rebelling. Only when they were provoked by them, coupled with some specific inducements, such as the sudden fire in the city, and the sudden hostility of the Han and the barbarians, would it cause larger-scale chaos.
Because of this, the government felt a sense of jealousy and did not know how to find these unstable factors to capture. Then Li Ling expressed a strategy from passive to active, and opened a public trial to attract enough people to the county government.
Because he believed that those rebel traitors would never miss such a good opportunity. After all, as long as they take this opportunity to assassinate the county magistrate or disrupt the county government, Jinning County will inevitably fall into chaos immediately. Even if there are official troops stationed here, it will be difficult to calm the chaos.
But they never dreamed that this was a big pit that the government had already dug, and they were fully prepared. After leading to these rebellions, all they had to do was to identify and capture them.
If the enemy is weak and we are strong, we can eliminate it with only a few enemies, so we can do it with dignity and there is no need to have too many concerns and worries. If the strategy is suitable, we can succeed.
...
The situation in the county government has been completely grasped by the government, and outside the county government, this chaos has come to an end.
Of course, these Luotian scholars with ulterior motives not only arranged personnel in the county jail, but also gathered almost all available people in the city to prepare for a melee.
As a result, their movements were soon noticed by the elite Dingxi Army who had been roaming the streets and alleys of the city. When they suddenly gathered, they wanted to attack the warehouse in the west of the city and set fire to disrupt the hearts of the people, they were surrounded by nearly 800 soldiers and horses.
There were only a hundred Luotian scholars gathered here. Facing the enemies who had been surrounded by several times, they completely lost their curse.
But how could this be?
Did the government actually draw all the troops to surround and kill them? Aren’t they afraid that the city gates are empty and they will be breached by a barbarian outside?
It was impossible for them to know the answers to these questions at this time. They did not know that this time Li Ling had already asked the county government to send invitations to many nearby barbarian villages at the same time, and also invited their heads to come for the trial. Although the heads in these villages did not come like Bai Xianhe, at least they stabilized them.
So although there were not many soldiers guarding the four gates of Jinning at this moment, they were very stable, while the hundreds of them who were trying to disrupt the city were already trapped in the Jedi.
"Kill, rush over!" At this point, all they could do was give it a try and rush for a while to see if they could break out of the siege.
After making up their minds, they decisively rushed to the position led by a famous young general on the right hand side. They naturally knew who this person was. He was the only son of Dingxi Marquis, Xiao Chengzhi, the young marquis. As long as he could capture him alive, everyone could leave smoothly.
Almost all rebels had this idea. They were desperate to attack this side with all their might, and all the offensives rushed towards Xiao Chengzhi, with the spirit of swallowing him in one mouthful.
Seeing this, Xiao Chengzhi was not surprised but happy. Looking at the rebellious rebels who rushed over, he laughed and raised the weapon in his hand. It was an extremely thick short halberd. At this time, he held the handle of the rod below with both hands, and he looked like he was holding a steel knife, and he faced a large number of enemies with the momentum of slashing.
After a while, he was rushing forward, he had already distanced himself from his troops, and after a while, he met the two fastest enemies. At that moment, Xiao Chengzhi shouted loudly, swung his short halberd in his hand, and whistled his whistle and slashed straight into the two of them.
The structure of this halberd is the complex of the spear and the sword. There is the spear tip in the middle and the crescent moon blades on both sides. It is not wrong to be used by him as a quick knife at this moment. In addition, the huge force he caused by rushing forward with the horse was really amazing. One of them was slashed to the side of his neck as soon as he raised his sword and fell down screaming.
The other man moved faster. While giving in and dodging, he quickly raised his knife and blocked the attack with a sound. But the force of this move still made him feel overwhelmed, and his body staggered and rushed to the side.
Xiao Chengzhi's movements were faster than he thought. Just when he thought he could flash the attack, the short halberd that seemed to have been knocked open stopped the castration with Xiao Chengzhi's loud shout, and then changed his move, from horizontal to straight stab, and then took the opponent's chest like lightning.
This time, the person who had been beaten to lose balance was unable to dodge any more. He could only raise his knife in a hurry to resist. But how could his speed be comparable to Xiao Chengzhi? With another whimper, the short halberd had already rubbed against his blade and penetrated into his chest, and then burst out from his back.
When Xiao Chengzhi shook his hand and threw it out, the person was dead and his body fell to the ground like a broken sack.
With just one meeting, all the two people who rushed to the front were killed. Xiao Chengzhi's fierce killing method immediately scared the Luotian scholars who rushed over, and made their forward rushing momentum stop, and many people even more panic.
I thought that such a young man with a respectable status would be easy to get on the battlefield, but unexpectedly, he kicked the iron plate and directly broke the bones of his feet.
Their fear did not make Xiao Chengzhi hesitate. He still rushed forward without moving forward. The short halberd in his hand was covered with blood, swinging fiercely, and then took the person in front of him. He was so scared that the other party screamed and rolled around and retreated to the side, but he didn't even have the courage to resist.
After this person dodged, the others did not dare to snatch his attack. Seeing him rushing over, they all dodged to the side. In an instant, the formation of the team of about a hundred people was scattered by Xiao Chengzhi alone.
With this chaos, there was no suspense in this battle. Whether it was the official army running with Xiao Chengzhi, or the soldiers who attacked and fought with all their might from the other three sides, they were already in great momentum. In a short period of time, they formed an encirclement, and then rushed forward and killed them. After 20 or 30 people died, the remaining Luotian scholars had to give up resistance and obediently be bound.
