After Song Jiang set off from Congrencheng, Wang Su ordered the convoy to speed up and reach Shanzhou as soon as possible.
After half a day, Song Jiang in the carriage opened the curtain, glanced outside, and said, "Are we almost to Jinxiang?"
"Yes, brother," Zhu Wu said, "It's still early now, why don't we go around and go directly to Shanzhou!!"
Pei Xuan, who was next to him, suddenly changed his expression after hearing this, but soon regained his composure. He nodded and said, "What brother Zhu Wu said is true. There are still four assassins hiding in the dark. Brother should arrive in Shanzhou as soon as possible. Now there are 30,000 soldiers and horses over there, no matter how powerful the assassin is, he will never dare to act recklessly!!"
Song Jiang took a look and said curiously: "Pei Xuan, is there something wrong with you??"
"Chief Pei probably wants to see how Magistrate Bi is doing in Jinxiang?" Chen Dong smiled as if he knew.
"County Magistrate Bi" Song Jiang heard this. After thinking for a while, he looked at Pei Xuan and said, "Oh! It's Bi Yingyuan who you personally recommended to the officials, right?"
"Exactly, brother, this man is not only proficient in criminal law, but also resourceful, both civil and military. Originally, I wanted him to join the criminal department directly, but firstly, he was not qualified enough, and secondly, there was a real shortage of officials in various places due to the recovery of Jeju. , so after my brother agreed, he was appointed as the magistrate of Jinxiang County, but now that assassins are rampant, my brother still goes directly to Shanzhou!!"
When Song Jiang heard this, he smiled and said: "So he is still your disciple!!"
Pei Xuan was stunned, smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "That's right!"
"Haha, let's go take a look," Song Jiang said curiously.
"Brother, I'm just afraid..." Hearing this, Zhu Wu was a little worried.
"It's okay, it's the same sentence. A group of assassins are not qualified to restrict my actions, Song Jiang. Of course, it is important to inspect the Siping Army, but it is also crucial to see whether the people of Jingdong are living well. If the people are dissatisfied with our rule, then what happens next War will be difficult," Song Jiang said.
When the three of them heard this, they said in admiration: "Brother is wise!!"
In the afternoon, about three or four miles away from Jinxiang County, a group of victims in tattered clothes suddenly appeared on both sides of the official road. It seemed that there were quite a few people.
When he saw Song Jiang's bicycle frame, one of the haggard-looking strong men immediately rushed forward and shouted: "Master, give me something to stutter!!"
Seeing his actions, other victims immediately rushed forward. When Wang Su saw it, he said angrily: "Be brave, get out of the way quickly."
"Master, we are from Peixian County, Xuzhou. The government there is deceitful and the powerful are rampant. I heard that Song Jiedu in Jingdong is particularly kind, so I wanted to come and have a look. We have had nothing to eat for two days."
"Sir, help me!!"
The cry immediately started, and the guards were in a panic. They were naturally brave to deal with the enemy, but seeing these suffering people, they were helpless.
At this time, in the carriage, Song Jiang frowned and said after hearing the crying outside: "What's going on??"
"Brother, let me go and take a look," Zhu Wu said cautiously.
Song Jiang nodded. When Zhu Wucong walked out of the carriage and looked at the excited refugees around him, he frowned and said, "Don't cry anymore. Jinxiang County is ahead of you. You can go there to seek a living!!"
After saying that, Zhu Wu looked at Wang Su and said dissatisfiedly: "Wang Su, what are you doing? Pull them away quickly!!"
"Yes, boss!!"
Just when Wang Sugang was about to give the order, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horse hooves, followed by a shout, "Brother, be careful, they are assassins!!"
I saw a man in official robes with a worried face, probably in his thirties, coming in a hurry with more than a dozen government officials. The expressions of the two refugees next to the carriage suddenly changed, and they bent down suddenly. , two sharp crossbow arrows immediately shot towards Zhu Wu in the car.
When the "chief" saw this scene, Xin Congzhong pushed quickly and was immediately hit by an arrow in his left arm.
"Brother Xin," Zhu Yongqing and the other four said anxiously.
"Kill!!" At this moment, the surrounding victims suddenly showed fierce expressions, and they drew out their hidden weapons and started killing the soldiers.
The soldiers were unprepared for a moment, and dozens of them fell down in an instant.
"Protect brother, protect brother" Zhu Yongqing and others shouted as they stood by the carriage and killed the attacking assassins.
"Behead Song Jiang, behead Song Jiang"
At this time, I saw a large number of assassins rushing out from the mountains and forests on both sides, killing the carriage with great ferocity.
Song Jiang's face darkened in the car. When he was about to go out, Chen Dong and Pei Xuan were startled and quickly grabbed each other by one arm.
"Brother, don't be impulsive," Chen Dong quickly advised, knowing that Song Jiang planned to take action himself.
"Brother is responsible for the entire Jingdong business. You must not lose anything." Pei Xuanyi held on tightly.
At this time, Zhu Wu, who was pushed in by Xin Congzhong, glanced at
, pulled out the sword in the car, and said seriously: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely kill them."
After saying that, he rushed out again.
"Zhu Wu" Song Jiang's expression changed. Looking at Chen Dong and Pei Xuan who were still holding him tightly, he said helplessly: "What are you doing!"
After Zhu Wu rushed out, he looked at the assassins who were coming. He killed one of them with one strike, and then started killing with fierce eyes. Don't forget that he was also a master with good martial arts skills.
"Brother Deng, save brother quickly"
The arriving official looked at the besieged carriage and immediately shouted anxiously.
"yes"
Hearing this, a seven-foot-tall man next to the official, with eyes like thunderbolts, turned cold. He immediately jumped up, waved his hands, and held two swords in his hands. The assassins around him were following him. In front of him, he was simply vulnerable to a blow. In a short time, seven or eight people died under the sword.
When he saw someone holding a knife and leaping up to stab the carriage, the man's eyes narrowed and he immediately threw the sword in his left hand. There was a sudden cry and the man died tragically on the ground.
After Zhu Yongqing looked at him in surprise, the two nodded slightly in greeting and started killing again.
"Kill!!" The official also drew out a sword at this time, and led the officials to kill the assassins continuously, with a fierce look on his face.
Following a fierce battle, with the bravery of Wang Su, Zhu Wu, and Xin Congzhong, most of the assassins disguised as refugees were killed, and the remaining ones were frightened and prepared to flee.
"Xie Bi, don't even think about leaving." I saw the guard surnamed Deng. After sweeping his eyes, he looked at a burly man holding a big sword. He threw the sword in his hand fiercely again. After a wailing sound, he directly threw it away. He was nailed to the boulder nearby! !
Soon after, the official and his men anxiously came to the carriage and saluted: "Jinxiang County Magistrate Bi Yingyuan, the guards arrived late, which frightened my brother."
After Song Jiang finally walked out of the carriage, he glanced at the corpses on the ground, looked at the officials in front of him who were pleading guilty, and said with some surprise: "Are you Bi Yingyuan?"
"Exactly"
Song Jiang nodded and said with a satisfied smile: "Okay, very good!"
