Before dawn, He Yilong woke up from his nightmare.

There were torches burning in the cave. He Yilong slept on the wooden bed. Most of the other people, including the family members, slept on the ground covered with straw. The cave was originally a temporary shelter, so naturally there were no good conditions.

.

When He Yilong woke up, he couldn't sleep anymore, and his mind kept rolling over the scenes from yesterday.

Shivering, He Yilong quickly got up and walked straight out of the cave.

A faint light can already be seen on the horizon, and the patrolling sergeants are still loyal. These people are the most elite sergeants in the old camp, and they will never be careless at critical moments.

Seeing He Yilong appear at the entrance of the cave, the patrolling sergeant quickly saluted.

He Yilong waved his hand, finally feeling relieved.

After turning around and entering the cave, within a few minutes, He Yilong's loud voice roared loudly, and everyone stood up quickly, including the female relatives.

He Yilong is quite impatient with the female relatives and doesn't even look at them. No wonder He Yilong. This is true for any rebel army. When the strength is strong, the female relatives are the treasures of the rebel army, but when the strength is weak, the female relatives are the treasures of the rebel army.

They are a burden among the rebels.

When he got up in the morning, He Yilong had already had the idea to give up these female dependents if necessary. As for whether the female dependents could survive in the mountains, it had nothing to do with He Yilong. If these female dependents were not killed, He Yilong would

The dragon is already kind.

The old battalion sergeant moved very quickly, while the female relatives were a little slower.

This made He Yilong even more dissatisfied.

Of course, the sergeants from the old camp noticed He Yilong's expression. Several sergeants from the old camp walked up to He Yilong and spoke in a low voice, looking at the trembling female family members as they spoke.

He Yilong also looked at the female relatives, nodded slightly, turned and walked towards the outside of the cave. He needed to go outside the cave to breathe fresh air, and did not want to see what was about to happen inside the cave.

Just as he walked out of the cave, a woman's pitiful cry for help came.

He Yilong didn't look back at all, walked out of the cave, and nodded to the sergeant who was still patrolling.

The patrolling sergeant just looked at the entrance of the cave, then turned and looked at He Yilong.

He Yilong spoke in a rare voice, saying that everyone on patrol had worked hard and asked them to prepare immediately. The large group of people needed to move to other places. It was no longer safe here.

If it weren't for yesterday's heavy losses and everyone being in shock, He Yilong would not have chosen to enter this cave. After all, many people knew about this hiding place. Everything happened so suddenly and hastily yesterday.

We couldn't find any other place to camp during the night. Fortunately, the night passed and everything was considered safe.

The officers and soldiers are indeed powerful, but that is not necessarily the case when entering the mountains. Besides, the mountains at night are the safest. The complex terrain and rugged mountain roads make it impossible for the officers and soldiers to move unless they are gods.

Half an hour later, many sergeants from the old camp came out of the cave.

I didn't see any female relatives coming out of the cave.

He Yilong waved his hand, signaling everyone to get ready and move places immediately.

The patrolling sergeant had already extinguished the torch in his hand. At this time, with the bright light from the sky, he could already see the surrounding paths clearly.

Looking at the hundreds of people gathered together, He Yilong spoke.

"Brothers, don't think about the past. From today on, we will circle in the mountains. We will not stay in each place for more than one day. We will keep walking deep into the mountains to avoid the pursuit of the army.

The officers and soldiers are indeed powerful, but in the mountains, they are no match for us. When the officers and soldiers evacuate, I will take all the brothers to leave Zhulian Mountain, return to Shaanxi, return to my hometown, and never leave again...

"

The gathered old battalion sergeants looked at He Yilong. Although his mood was still a little low, there was light in his eyes.

"Haha, He Yilong, do you still have a chance to return to Shaanxi..."

Before he finished speaking, a rain of arrows appeared instantly.

The rogue sergeants standing outside the cave were caught off guard. Many of them were hit by the flying arrows and fell to the ground screaming. The rogue sergeants who were not hit instinctively ran towards the direction of the cave.

Including He Yilong, they all ran in the direction of the cave, but he had already been shot by a bow and arrow in the buttocks. After running two steps, he felt a sharp pain instantly.

Another round of arrow rain came, and two personal guards jumped on He Yilong's back.

Blood flowed down He Yilong's neck. It was the blood of the personal guards on his back.

He Yilong closed his eyes in pain, his heart filled with despair. He was convinced that what he met was the Denglai New Army, the Denglai New Army who Li Zicheng said was extremely brave.

I originally thought it was safe in the mountains, but I didn't know that the army had already surrounded this place. The reason why we didn't launch an attack immediately was probably because we didn't know the terrain inside the cave, so we didn't take rash actions.

He Yilong, who was at the end of his rope, suddenly became calm in his heart. Death was coming, so there was nothing left to fear.

"Brothers, give up resistance and surrender. I, He Yilong, am sorry for you..."

...

Outside the cave, there were rows of kneeling bandits, war horses, carriages, grain, grass, and large wooden boxes, neatly arranged. This should be all the money and grain that He Yilong had.

Including He Yilong, he was also kneeling on the ground. The bow and arrow had not been taken out yet, and drops of blood were dripping on the ground.

Luo Dianyong and Luo Diianzhao entered the cave with fifty sergeants.

Soon, Luo Dianyong and Luo Diazhao, who were ashen-faced, walked out of the cave. The sergeants who followed them had angry expressions on their faces. Many of the bandits kneeling on the ground lowered their heads.

"Nothing better than a beast, what's the use of keeping you..."

As soon as Luo Dianyong finished speaking, Luo Diianzhao raised his right arm and made a killing motion.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Countless bows and arrows were fired at the rogues kneeling on the ground.

In just a minute or two, except for He Yilong, all the other kneeling bandits were shot into hedgehogs.

Inside the cave, the corpses of several white-painted women were carried out. The blood in their lower bodies was almost solidified. The painful expressions on their faces when they were about to die were unbearable to look at.

Everyone knows what happened in the cave.

Luo Dianzhao walked up to He Yilong.

"He Yilong, you call yourself a rebel, is this how you treat women?"

"My lord once said that you bandits were forced to rebel, so you rebelled at the wrong time. In my opinion, you were no longer forced to rebel. You did such despicable things to women, and you still thought about it.

Are you making a comeback? It’s a joke..."

He Yilong knelt on the ground and could no longer say any words. In fact, he did not want to kill the female relatives around him, but many sergeants made suggestions. He also thought of bringing these female relatives into trouble. If these female relatives were let go, what would happen to them?

If the news about him and his many brothers leaks out, it will be a big trouble.

A single thought led to the current situation, and He Yilong was unable to say any words.

Luo Dianzhao looked at He Yilong, who had his head lowered, with a look of disdain on his face, and waved to the sergeant beside him.

Just when Luo Dianzhao turned around, a bright light appeared, the steel knife slashed across, and a wisp of blood spurted out.

He Yilong, who fell to the ground, struggled a few times and stopped moving.

Immediately, a sergeant came forward, cut off He Yilong's head, and quickly put it in a cloth bag.

"Dig a few big pits and bury all these people. Remember, if you bury them deeper, your fate will be destroyed. No matter what they have done before, they will always be buried..."

Luo Dianyong issued the order, and immediately some sergeants began to dig a hole not far from the cave. This was a request made by the Lord, and it was also written into the military discipline and military regulations of the Denglai New Army. Only a few people, including Luo Diianzhao and Luo Dianyong, knew that the corpse was

It cannot be exposed to the wild for a long time, especially when the climate is hot, as it is easy to spread the plague.

...

Luo Diianzhao and Luo Dianyong led many soldiers out of Zhulian Mountain.

Outside the mountain, Wu Zongrui, Liu Ning and others were already waiting.

Luo Diianzhao and Luo Dianyong quickly stepped forward and saluted Wu Zongrui with clasped fists.

"Reporting to your lord, He Yilong and the bandits under his command fought stubbornly and killed them all. Their money, food, horses, carriages, ordnance, etc., were all seized..."

There was no expression on Wu Zongrui's face.

Luo Dianyong, who opened his mouth to report, turned pale and his body trembled slightly.

In front of Wu Zongrui, he felt that he had been completely seen through.

Luo Dianzhao spoke immediately.

"My lord, this is my subordinate's order to kill all the bandits, including He Yilong himself. It has nothing to do with Luo Dianyong. I am willing to accept the punishment..."

"Don't rush to talk about punishment. Tell us why you killed all the bandits."

"My subordinates and Luo Dianyong saw an unbearable scene in the cave, so they ordered all the bandits to be killed..."

Luo Dianzhao described everything he saw in the cave in detail.

Wu Zongrui's face turned pale when he heard this.

"I understand. According to military discipline and rules, you should not kill the surrendered prisoners at will. However, what the bandits did was outraged by both humans and gods. In your anger, you could not control your emotions and killed all the bandits. I can understand that you

I know that military discipline and rules cannot be violated, and your punishment must be indispensable. You killed He Yilong, which is a meritorious service and should be rewarded. But if you violated military discipline and rules, then there will be no reward or punishment. The merits and demerits will be equal to each other.

."

Luo Diianzhao and Luo Dianyong were relieved.

"Luo Dianyong, you lied about military information just now. Your crime will be increased to one level. When you return to the military camp, you will receive ten army sticks as punishment. From now on, no matter what the reason, you are not allowed to lie. Do you understand?"

"thump..."

Luo Dianyong knelt on one knee.

"I accept the punishment and will never do it again in the future."

...

The army headed in the direction of the camp.

Luo Dianzhao and Luo Dianyong both lowered their heads. After a while, Luo Dianzhao spoke to Luo Dianyong.

"Second brother, it's me who has dragged you down, asking you to help me take the blame..."

"Third brother, don't say that. I just realized that we actually did nothing wrong by killing the bandits, but lying in front of the Lord was really wrong. You didn't punish me severely, so I am already very lucky." (Unfinished)
