Kushu Mountain is located in Guan County, east of Daming Mansion, not far from Yanggu County, and Qinghe County is right next door to Yanggu County.
The chief commander of the village here is named Bao Xu, and is known as the Sangmenshen in the world.
Because this person's only hobby is killing people, he is considered a murderer in the local area who can stop children crying at night.
Li Yunze chose to beat him first, naturally because this person likes to rob homes and kill everywhere, and he is a scourge that must be eliminated.
He just took hundreds of cavalry, leaving Yang Zhi to look after the house and went straight to Kushu Mountain.
The last time I went to the Western Army to gain military merit, the biggest gain was of course not the promotion of military rank due to military exploits, but the fact that after the war, I spent money from the Western Army to acquire a large number of horses.
The Song Dynasty did not have large-scale horse farms, so it was naturally impossible to build powerful cavalry similar to the Han and Tang cavalry.
The Song Dynasty, which claims to have a higher battlefield victory rate than the Tang Dynasty, actually achieved its victory rate on its own territory. Due to the lack of cavalry, it was unable to pursue and encircle, and usually could only defeat the enemy.
Unlike the Tang Dynasty cavalry, most of their wars were fought within the enemy's territory. If you win, you can pursue, encircle, and annihilate, and if you lose, you can retreat calmly.
In fact, this is a secret exchange concept, and the real combat effectiveness of the two sides is completely incomparable.
In the Song Dynasty, which lacked land to raise horses, the most important way to obtain horses was through exchange and purchase between Guanzhong and Qingtang, Xixia and other places.
Li Yunze was not short of money, so he naturally took advantage of the opportunity to withdraw his troops and make purchases.
Training cavalry is a long-term process. The hundreds of men and horses he brought now are not so much cavalry as horse-mounted infantry, that is, dragoons.
Bao Xu, the mourning sect god who had not come down the mountain for some time, led hundreds of his men down the mountain in great force that day, searching for a village for dozens of miles.
After defeating the resistance of the villagers and local archers, Bao Xu laughed loudly and waved his broadsword, "Slaughter this village!"
He likes to kill people, but he can't kill people wherever he goes.
If that were the case, he would have been wiped out long ago.
The reason why he wanted to massacre the village was because the village had not paid the property fees, and the minions he sent to ask for property fees were arrested and sent to the government.
Not only that, nearby villages were also affected and began to refuse to pay property fees.
Of course Bao Xu couldn't bear this kind of thing, so he wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
He broke into the village brandishing a broad sword, kicked open the door with a strange scream, and was about to go in and kill him.
The sound of horse hooves could be heard on the road outside the village. Bao Xu subconsciously turned his head and looked over, but was shocked to see a large group of officers and soldiers approaching on horseback.
He was shocked and pale, "You idiots actually reported to the officials to ambush me?!"
There were too many officers and soldiers, and they were also cavalry. Bao Xu immediately turned around and ran towards his horse.
As soon as he got on his horse, a sharp arrow whizzed out, knocking his horse to the ground.
Bao Xu struggled to get up. Before he could take a breath, a fast horse roared past him.
Li Yunze, who was holding a spear, pierced Bao Xu's chest with one shot. He used his majestic strength to pierce and pick him up, and then stopped after galloping for more than a hundred steps.
Shaking the spear, he threw Bao Xu, who was still alive, to the ground.
"Where did it come from..." Bao Xu, who was vomiting blood at the mouth, looked at Li Yunze who was walking beside him, and struggled to ask who it was. ….Li Yunze raised his leg and stepped heavily on his head.
'puff! '
The watermelon was broken.
The battle did not last long. The minions brought by Bao Xu were either killed or arrested while kneeling down to beg for mercy.
Seeing that many of the villagers had been slaughtered, Li Yunze was too lazy to interrogate him and directly told them, "Let them dig holes!"
The prisoners tremblingly dug a big hole, and then they were all driven down.
After filling it in and then trampling it with horses, the harvest of this land will definitely be good next year.
"A hero from Liangshan?" Li Yunze casually broke the broad sword left by Bao Xu and kept it aside. Li Yunze spat, "Bah!"
On the way, the main force of the Kushu Mountain bandits was accidentally wiped out, and even the leader of the village, Bao Xu, was shot in the head by Li Yunze.
After that, it would be easy and simple to clean the old nest on the Dead Tree Mountain.
The young and strong gangsters were all taken down the mountain by Bao Xu to commit evil. The remaining old, weak, sick and disabled were no match for the elite soldiers.
Moreover, this Kushu Mountain is just an ordinary hill, and its danger level cannot be compared with Shaohua Mountain and other places.
Facing the old, weak, sick and disabled bandits, Li Yunze did not let go.
He has seen too many such things. Many bad people have simply grown older, but the nature of the bad people has not changed at all.
Li Yunze, who has countless experiences, cannot be soft-hearted and let the bad guys go just because they are getting older.
Continuous interrogations, continuous reports and revelations.
After several days of continuous interrogation, the bandits' psychological defenses quickly collapsed, and everyone was accounted for.
As expected, all the people on the mountain are old bandits, all of them are thieves with blood debts and committed all kinds of evil.
Out of the traditional virtue of respecting the old and caring for the young, Li Yunze found a place with pretty good scenery on the Dead Tree Mountain and sent the old bandits there, thus becoming one with the Dead Tree Mountain.
After solving Kushu Mountain, Li Yunze led the team eastward, heading straight for Dengyun Mountain in Dengzhou.
Dengyun Mountain is just a small village, and its leaders are Chulinlong Zouyuan and One-horned Dragon Zourun, their uncle and nephew.
There are only a hundred or so people under his command. It is better to say that it is a copycat, let alone a small gang.
They did everything a robber should do, including robbing homes, gambling, and collecting property fees.
After Li Yunze came to Dengzhou with hundreds of dragon cavalry, he did not rush up and start fighting. Instead, he set up a military stronghold and repaired it for a few days.
On this day, he took a few followers and rode lightly to inquire about the military situation.
After walking around in the forest for a while, a tiger roar suddenly came from the distance.
These days, everything outside the towns and villages is wilderness, and there are countless wild animals of all kinds.
There are naturally many tigers. As a mountain king, it is not unusual to see tigers on Dengyun Mountain.
Li Yunze didn't want to talk to him, but he never thought that the tiger would come straight towards them.
Seeing the colorful figures in the distance shuttle through the mountains and forests, constantly approaching them, the horses of Li Yunze and others were already restless.
"Ah."
Stabilizing his horse, Li Yunze drew his bow and shot an arrow directly, accurately hitting the word "王" on the tiger's forehead. ….He used a strong bow and armor-piercing heavy arrows, and he had no problem shooting through the tiger’s forehead.
The tiger, whose head was pierced by the sharp arrow, immediately fell to the ground, its limbs fluttered for a while and then stopped moving.
"General's sharpshooting!"
The entourage immediately cheered.
"There's someone." Li Yunze looked towards the direction the tiger was coming from. A group of hunters with bows and forks chased after the tiger and surrounded it.
Looking at the tiger on the ground, and then at Li Yunze and others riding horses not far away, the leader of the hunters came out and said, "Hero, this tiger is what we are hunting."
Li Yunze smiled and said nothing, and his followers stepped forward and yelled, "Are you blind? Didn't you see that it was the tiger we shot!"
Tiger skin is very valuable these days, and tiger bones, tiger penis, etc. are also valuable medicinal materials that can be used as medicine and are worth a lot of money.
Faced with such a huge sum of money, the hunters will naturally compete for it.
When the two sides were noisy, the impatient Li Yunze simply waved his hand, "Open your eyes and look at that arrow!"
The hunters then took a serious look at the sharp arrow stuck in the tiger's forehead. Naturally, they were startled by this sight.
The reason is simple. What kills tigers is not the light arrows used in hunting bows, but the armor-piercing heavy arrows specially made by the military to break armor.
"My general is the general of the Dongping Prefecture's grain ban army!" The entourage proudly announced, "We are waiting for the ban army to come here to suppress the bandits. Are you trying to collide with the official army?"
Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials. When facing the regular army, the hunters really backed down.
The leading hunter went out to salute, "It turns out that the living Veda is in front of him, disrespectful, disrespectful. I will leave right away."
When he heard this nickname, Li Yunze also darkened his face.
He didn't follow the martial arts route, but since he was given this nickname, people would call him that wherever he went.
It's really, really unpleasant.
"Wait a minute." Li Yunze stopped a group of hunters, "You are all hunters, how are your bow and arrow skills?"
"Reply to the general." The hunter wearing animal skins immediately responded, "I dare not say that the arrows are all fired, but I am willing to hunt any prey anywhere in Dengyun Mountain."
Li Yunze smiled and said, "I heard that there are two brothers from the Jie family here in Dengzhou who are highly skilled in martial arts. Have you ever met each other?"
The leader of the Orions was stunned for a moment, then looked at a companion next to him who was also holding a steel fork. "General, I am Jie Zhen, nicknamed Two-Headed Snake. This is my younger brother Jie Bao, nicknamed Two-tailed Scorpion."
Li Yunze got off his horse and walked up to the two brothers to look at them.
Both of them were wearing animal skins, holding some steel forks, and carrying bows and arrows on their backs. Their bodies are all majestic and tall, and they even have a pair of big feet.
"It's not easy to hunt in the mountains." Li Yunze nodded with satisfaction. "Do you want to join the Forbidden Army and get food and salary? I have good treatment for my subordinates. Not only are they paid enough, but they also provide enough accommodation allowance."
Young Jie Bao couldn't help but asked in detail, "May I ask the general, how much does it cost to settle down?"
You don't make much money as a hunter because you don't get high-value prey like tigers every day.
The two brothers are not too young, but they still have not been able to marry because of their poverty.
"Ten gu of settlement allowance for each person." Li Yunze kicked the tiger next to him and pointed, "I'll give this to you too."
All the hunters suddenly looked happy.
Being an Orion is very hard, and it would be better if you could join the Forbidden Army and get food and salary.
In ancient times, when recruiting soldiers, the quality of the soldiers was very important.
The first choice is naturally a good family son who has wealth and can provide his own weapons and horses. This must be at least a small landowner's family that can afford it.
Then there are the miners and hunters, who are all strong and tough people.
Orion miners are of higher quality than those peasant soldiers who put down their hoes.
The hunters were overjoyed and expressed their willingness to follow the general.
Amidst the joyous atmosphere, a group of pedestrians dressed as servants came down the mountain, surrounded by a young man dressed as a young man who came forward.
After seeing the tiger on the ground, everyone's face showed joy.
The leader stepped forward and shouted, "This is the forest in the backyard of my Mao family, please leave as soon as possible!"
