Liang Chuan aimed for a long time, but still missed, and he patted his thigh in annoyance. Lin Ju became angry and struck He Dali with a knife. He Dali followed Liang Chuan's instructions and ran back with the ax in hand. Liang Chuan was afraid that He Dali would make a mistake, so he rushed out to respond.
Liang Chuan deliberately shouted to He Dali in a loud voice: "Brother Liang Chuan, please step back, this little guy lets me come!" While running, he took the two axes from He Dali's hand and rushed towards Lin Ju in the opposite direction. Rushed over.
Lin Ju showed some strength when he insisted, but the young general opposite him was not afraid of death and rushed towards him! Suddenly I admired his courage: "Send your name!"
Liang Chuan replied: "Repay your mother."
Lin Jugang wanted to say: It's a good reward. . Before he could say anything, he realized that this kid was scolding him, and the two of them were fighting with weapons.
Liang Chuan's ax was heavy and his sword was fierce. The two weapons clashed together, causing sparks to fly. Lin Ju's sword skills were steady and methodical. Liang Chuan's grasp of the ax was flawless. The two of them were fighting inextricably in front of everyone. Shan The people were secretly frightened when they saw it. Lin Ju was the most powerful being in their group, while the other party was just a 'nobody' who wanted to stand out.
Liang Chuan's two axes seemed bulky, but the force exerted was extremely precise. Every time the ax blade hit the Pu Dao, it was in the same position, making his jaw go numb. Fortunately, the Pu Dao had also been soaked in tung oil for many years and was extremely tough. , otherwise he would have been split in two by this kid.
Relying on the length of the Pu Dao and his agility, Lin Ju had the upper hand at the beginning. But after dozens of rounds, his arms became heavier and heavier. Looking at the boy opposite him, he still looked relaxed and content. If his ax hadn't been too short, he would have been hacked by the opponent if he couldn't make a move.
If you continue fighting like this, after a hundred rounds, you will definitely be exhausted and defeated. Lin Ju was heartbroken. It turned out that he wanted to do something big with his martial arts skills. He couldn't even defeat an ordinary villager from the next town before he stepped out of the door. What big thing could he accomplish?
This was also his bad luck. As soon as he came out of the mountain, he met the reincarnated god general Liang Chuan. He had few opponents with his divine power. It was a miracle that he could fight like this with Liang Chuan. Even Li Chuyi didn't have this ability now.
When Lin Yi saw that his elder brother's sword skills were slowly becoming disordered, he knew that this was a sign of exhaustion of strength, so he immediately rushed to the rescue with a few of his men. When Liang Chuan saw the reinforcements arriving, he thought to himself that this kid was really good at fighting. You can't take him down in a while, and you can't beat him with more people. He found an opening and retreated.
As soon as Liang Chuan retreated to the village, a team member came to report: "Captain, when you were fighting with the opponent just now, the mountain people attacked several villages!"
As expected, as Li Chuyi expected, these mountain people had already planned. Liang Chuan asked: "How is it? How are the losses of the three villages?"
The team members reported: "All three of our villages are fine. The mountain people came to the village entrance for fear of traps and saw our team members guarding them, so they retreated, but... "
Liang Chuan saw something wrong with his expression and asked, "Just what?"
The team member said: "The losses in Chihe are serious."
Liang Chuan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the mountain people would sneak attack Chihe. They had no weapons and no defense. Because the village cadres did not support them, none of the villagers joined the management team. The three-village joint defense also excluded Chihe. The mountain people entered the village and slaughtered them like tigers descending from the mountain. They knew the loss without even thinking about it. . He had no choice. He had already asked people from Chihe to join the adult management brigade, but after all, it was not easy for him to speak.
"Let Jinshan take people to Chihe to have a look, and help as many people as possible."
Liang Chuan took advantage of Lin Ju's duel with He Dali to sneak attack on him. Lin Ju took advantage of the duel with He Dali and himself to have people sneak attack on other villages, and maybe even Xinghua City. All of them are as smart as ghosts and have evil intentions.
Liang Chuan stood at He Lu and looked over from a distance. There were some thick smoke rising from the direction of Chihe River. The situation might be worse than imagined. Huangjinshan took Lian Gan's team members to rush for reinforcements and came back soon. No team members were killed today, and their faces were even worse.
"How is the situation in Chihe?" Liang Chuan asked Golden Mountain Road.
"Everyone is dead, except for a few children who were hiding. Even the house was almost burned down." Huangjinshan and the others live in a neighboring village. They have witnessed the overwhelming number of people in Chihe since they were young, and they have always been the only ones to bully them. For other people's sake, other villages have to look at their faces, but at this moment, the village is full of corpses, including men, women, old and young, chickens and dogs, and a huge century-old village has been reduced to ashes.
Today the mountain people also attacked the front of their company. Fortunately, the young people were armed and traps were dug at the entrance of the village. The mountain people knew they were prepared and retreated to the mountains after testing. The same Chihe did not have such good luck.
After many young people from the three villages died in the last battle, many people complained against Liang Chuan. They said that the mountain people would not be enemies with them. It was Liang Chuan who instigated them. Taking action first would lead to revenge from the mountain people. Looking back now, I can see that the villagers in Chihe did not provoke the mountain people, but they were completely slaughtered. Looking back now, I think what Liang Chuan said was right.
"These mountain people are so cruel. Call the orphans in Chihe. Call them all." What else could Liang Chuan say besides sighing. At first, he also wanted to establish a management team in Chihe, but they were decisive. Refused. "Send a few people to notify the government and ask them to confirm the scene, so as not to pin this charge on us later."
"Yes, Captain."
Lin Ju not only sent mountain people to attack several villages on the north bank, but also sent people to attack Xinghua County. According to his expectation, the government would definitely set up an ambush and capture him, the leader of the rebellion, but he risked his life and still managed to survive. They couldn't get into the eyes of the government, and they didn't even set up an ambush! If the government divides its troops, there will be a gap in Xinghua at this time, and they actually see through their plan.
The officers and soldiers guarded the county seat, preferring to die rather than open the door. They all stood on the city wall and shot arrows. The mountain people were just planning a sneak attack, so they would not bring any siege equipment. The county seat was not captured, but a lot of corpses were left behind.
Today, the mountain people finally breathed a sigh of relief. They burned down a village. Although they didn't get much money and food, even though Chihe was a big village, it was still very poor. Even if they scraped the ground three feet away, they couldn't find any decent treasures. Originally, they wanted to celebrate their victory when they returned to the mountain. As soon as several groups of people gathered together, after counting, many brothers were lost. Da Ju was in the most depressed mood. He thought that the only powerful person in He Lu was Liang Chuan, but now he couldn't even defeat Liang Chuan's men. The shadows of those two axes were still in his mind.
Now he has less than 200 brothers, only more than 100. Not to mention Xinghua, even He Lu can't be defeated. The people sent out to buy food and swords and guns didn't bring back half a grain of rice. The mountain people's food The savings in several large households have almost been exhausted, and winter is about to begin. These days will only become more and more difficult. What should we do? He has given up on this rebellion. Is there any point in continuing the fight?
He was afraid not only of Liang Chuan, but also of the strange formations of the villagers in these villages. Although the weapon they use is strange and looks like a big broom, if you are not careful, you may suffer the consequences of this weapon. It seems to be smeared with some kind of poison. After a scratch, it will start to fester and turn red within a few days. In serious cases, The ground began to fester. The big broom was covering in front, and the knives and spears in the back began to harvest people's heads. Except for his brothers who died in the trap, most of them were killed by their tactics. How to solve it? Do you rely on bows and arrows? Even bows and arrows are in short supply on the mountain now and there is not much inventory!
There are no production resources and channels in the mountains, and even the labor force is pitifully small. Now the men in the mountains basically have to fight, and the women are responsible for logistics at home. However, after several battles, many men died, and many women have become Without a widow, the mountain people are destined to have a hard time this winter.
After the court received the second emergency report from Quanzhou Prefecture, it quickly requested reinforcements from Fuzhou to rush to Xinghua immediately. The defenders of Quanzhou were stationed in place to ensure that Quanzhou and Qingyuan County were safe. Most of the officials in the court also knew Quanzhou is an important source of tax revenue for the Southeast. Once it falls, the Southeast will be in danger.
After waiting for nearly half a month, it was almost October, and reinforcements from Fuzhou finally arrived. Not only did the reinforcements from Fuzhou arrive, but the court also adopted the opinions submitted by Zhao Weixian. Now the land in central Fujian has completely surrounded Xinghua. All surrounding counties have implemented curfews, strengthened their defenses, and strictly checked people's entry and exit. No one will be allowed to leave. Materials flowed into Xinghua. If this trend continues, within half a year, the mountain people will have no choice but to eat tree bark.
Fuzhou sent a total of 20,000 garrison troops. These troops were mobilized from several surrounding state capitals, with the purpose of annihilating these mountain people in one fell swoop. Twenty thousand troops marched from Yongtai to Xinghua. These mountain people did not expect that the imperial court would not send troops from the direction of Quanzhou, but instead launched a large-scale attack from the direction of Yongtai. They used the tactic of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields, and forced all the ordinary mountain people to move to the plains, giving them a small amount of Money and farm tools allowed them to resume production, and the houses and crops on the mountain were all burned down. If there weren't so many primitive mountains in Xinghua, with high mountains and dense forests, all the mountain tops would have been burned to the ground.
The 20,000 soldiers and horses are completely different from the less than 200 soldiers and horses of the mountain people. They are not of the same magnitude at all. The mountain people's will to resist has completely collapsed this time, and all the mansions and compounds they have captured have been abandoned. He dragged his family and his family to hide in a more remote mountain.
Only then did Lin Ju and Lin Yi realize how difficult it was to rebel. Against the big machine of Chaoting, their strength was like that of ants. The soldiers would crush them and kill them just for fun.
The imperial army raided Xinghua for a month, burning all the buildings on the mountain and asking people to move. The entire mountainous area used to have a small population and poor economy, but now it is like a ghost zone. There are only wild animals and no one is around for a hundred miles. As for the mountain people, not even a single figure could be seen, and it was not known whether they were wiped out by the court or whether they hid in some ravine.
