Chapter 337 Yang Zhi was trapped
Yang Zhi saw Kuang Li returning with his troops and asked: "Where is Hou Geng?"
Kuang Li said: "This guy said he was going far away I followed the ruts and came out of Huangnigang. I saw many ruts and horse hoof prints on the official road. It seemed that I was going east. Hanging up, not wanting to say anything, he just waved his hand.
Everyone looked at Yang Zhi's face and did not dare to say anything. They all went to sit under the shade of the trees outside the courtyard, muttering quietly.
Yang Zhidao said, "Should I send someone to inform Zhou Jin? I might as well use him to hunt down the thief later."
After hearing this, Kuang Li rolled his eyes and said, "He is forty or fifty miles ahead." , I don’t know when to chase him, it’s better to wait for Xie Duguan to come back and ask the county to send fast horses to chase him.”
After hearing this, Yang Zhi stopped talking. Several people were waiting under the shade of the trees outside the hotel.
As for Hou Geng, he walked quickly and caught up with Xie Duguan halfway.
Guan Xie was surprised when he saw it: "Why are you here?"
Hou Geng said: "Guan Guan, let's take a step to talk."
The two walked to the side, Hou Geng said in a low voice: "Guan Guan, can I wait for the good fruit when you go back this time?"
< br>Xie Duguan hesitated and said: "This..., I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid punishment."
"If it's just a punishment, that's it. At the least, I might not be able to keep my position, and at the worst, I'll be sent to a border state. His life is at risk. How big of a villain can he withstand these two hundred thousand gold and jewels?"
Seeing Xie Duguan panicking, Hou Geng said: "Yang Zhi, a thief with an army, Daming Mansion? He has no foundation and relies solely on promotion. If he wants to get merit, why not just blame it on him?"
"This..."
"Guan Guan, there is an ancient saying: 'When the fire burns all over the body, everyone goes to sweep it away; when the bee flies into the arms, he immediately undresses.' Yang Zhi is not the only one to bear the current situation. I It’s hard to wait until the end.”
The two of them murmured, and then Xie Duguan nodded and led the people to Nanluo County. Hou Geng turned around and walked away with a happy face. After deliberately delaying for a long time, I returned.
I don’t want to say how Xie Du Guan went to complain, but Hou Geng returned to the hotel and greeted Yang Zhi first. He said that he had no new discoveries. Seeing that Yang Zhi ignored him, Hou Geng went inside. I found some water to drink and sat down under the shade of a tree.
Kuang Li glanced at Hou Geng, who pointed at Yang Zhi with his chin. Everyone was silent.
After a while, Hou Geng looked at Kuang Li, and the two of them walked aside and whispered.
Later, I found an opportunity to work separately on the sergeants sitting in the shade of the trees one by one. The sergeants all had families and had lived in Daming Mansion for several generations. After hearing the threats from the two men, they naturally obeyed.
Yang Zhi was not aware of it at first, and saw that one of the two Yuhous was getting up, and the other was getting up. Realizing something, he said: "I'm going to have a look in the distance. If everyone comes back, let off the smoke as a signal and I'll come."
Both of them were eager for Yang Zhi's absence, so they nodded in response hurriedly. Down.
Yang Zhi stood up, stepped on a waist knife, held a simple knife upside down, took Liang Li'er with him, got up and left. When everyone saw that Yang Zhi had gone far, Hou Geng stood up and spoke to the commander again. Although a few of the sergeants made some rebuttals, seeing that most of them were standing behind Hou Geng, they naturally did not dare to say anything and all said: Listen to the instructions of the two Yuhous.
While everyone was talking, Yang Zhi had already turned back and stood behind the tree, listening to most of what everyone said. Yang Zhi jumped out with a simple sword and shouted: "Zuiniao, how dare you slander the Sa family."
Kuang Li and Hou Geng saw that they were defeated and quickly grabbed a simple sword in their hands. Hou Geng shouted: "Don't blame Tiha, this journey has been smooth. Why are you persecuting me so much and driving a long way while it's hot? The brothers were thirsty and hot, so they drank the Menghan medicinal wine. Although these people behind were killed. Many sergeants did not touch Tijia at all. Tijia also said that Xingzang must have been missed. We are all Xiang Imperial Guards who lived in Daming Mansion. We must not dare to leak the news. We are not familiar with the heroes in the world. He knows the way and has a good reputation in the world. Naturally, we will doubt you."
Kuang Li also said: "Why don't you just go with us and go to see your husband and make a clear argument?"
After hearing this, Yang Zhi was furious and ran towards Kuang Li and Hou Geng with his sword drawn.
Kuang Li and Hou Geng also shouted loudly and went to greet them with their swords drawn. Kuang Li did not forget to shout: "If you don't want to die, why don't you come to help."
After hearing this, all the sergeants hesitated for a moment, then each found a carrying pole and surrounded Yang Zhi to fight. Yang Zhi was angry and danced with the sword in his hand, stabbing several of them in a short time. Everyone tried their best to resist, but they were more defensive than offensive. At the crisis point, someone from a distance shouted: "Don't leave, Yang Zhi."
After hearing this, Yang Zhi took a peek and saw that it was Xie Duguan riding on a horse, leading many people. The public servants were all armed with steel forks, simple knives, guest houses, hooks and sickles. Yang Zhi didn't know that he had become a scapegoat. At that moment, he became more and more resentful. He showed off his lifelong martial arts skills and swung two swords. One sword picked up Kuang Li's right arm, and the other slashed Hou Geng's chest and abdomen. He shouted: "Those who stand in my way will die, and those who avoid me will live."
Seeing Yang Zhi's bravery, all the sergeants did not dare to stop him, so they all retreated. Yang Zhi glanced at Xie Duguan and the others running from a distance, turned his knife upside down, and headed into the forest.
A group of people came forward, and Xie Duguan asked people to bandage Kuang Li and Hou Geng. Kuang Li was fine. Although his face was pale, the bleeding had stopped and there was no fear for his life. Looking at Hou Geng again, his intestines had come out, and there was less air coming in and more air coming out. I was afraid it might not work.
Xie Duguan said to Wang Dutou on the side: "Dutou, you have also seen that Yang Zhi saw us and fled for his life. He must have colluded with outsiders to do this. Please Dutou investigate. "Fan, it's best to find the desperadoes who stole the money. I'll naturally give you a nice word from my husband."
The king nodded and ordered his men to disperse, except to summon everyone. In the village, Zheng also went to Guan Road to visit the place where Shi Wei and Lai Yonger's group clashed.
After only one day of questioning, it was found out that the people who opened the store indeed had Shandong accents, and the rice wine left in the hotel was also a famous wine in Qingzhou.
The shadow figures were identified and determined to be the work of Song Jiang and his gang from Qingzhou.
After staying for three days, Hou Geng still could not survive and died. It's a pity that this guy had an idea, but he lost it.
Xie Duguan left Kuang Li and several imperial guards behind. One was to recover from his injuries, and the other was to wait with the Yamen to identify the thieves. He also ordered people to ride fast horses and chase Zhou Jin and his group south. He took the other sergeants and rode back to Daming Mansion to report to Liang Zhongshu. Grand Master Shenfu learned that he had landed in Qingzhou Mansion to hunt down this group of strongmen.
But he said that Xie Du was in charge of these imperial guards, and Xiaoxing stayed overnight and hurried back to BJ. Regardless of anything else, they all went to Liang Zhongshu's mansion, and all the way to the front of the hall, they all bowed down and confessed their sins.
Not waiting for Liang Shijie to ask, Xie Du said: "Master, Yang Zhi is a bold and ungrateful thief. He colluded with a group of gangsters from Songjiang, Qingzhou, and set up a trap in Huangnigang, Nanluo County in advance. I drank his wine by mistake and was drunk by the man. However, the Qingzhou thieves loaded all the birthday treasures and luggage into the car and took them away. Afterwards, Yang Zhi pretended to be injured and waited with me. He stayed there and reported it to Nanluo County. Later, when the incident was revealed, Hou Geng Yuhou was killed and Yuhou Kuangli was stabbed. Now Kuangli stayed there and waited with the government to arrest the culprits. The villain waited for everyone to come back and tell the master at night."
Liang Zhongshu was shocked when he heard this and cursed: "This thief is in charge of the army. I have promoted him to be in charge of the army. How dare he do this? This is such an ungrateful thing. If I catch him, he will be cut into pieces."
After that, he called the scribe, wrote the document, and sent someone to Qingzhou to drop him at that time. He wrote another letter home and went to Tokyo overnight to report to the Grand Master.
He only said that the messenger who went to Tokyo to deliver the letter met with the Grand Master and submitted the letter. Master Cai looked at it and said angrily: "These thieves are very bold. In the past two years, my son-in-law's scheme, except for many people, was still robbed this year. Now that there is news about the robbers, we cannot let these people go." A daring thief."
I then took a piece of official paper and handed it over to a government officer. I watched Qingzhou come to the government office at starry night and immediately waited for the arrest of these thieves.
As for the prefect Murong of Qingzhou, since he received the letter from Liang Zhongshu, the left-behind secretary of Daming Prefecture, he has been working with the commander-in-chief of the prefecture’s command department, Qin Ming, and the commander-in-chief of the army and horses [Thunderbolt Fire], Huang Xin and Xin Ming. The general manager of Maxing Town came to discuss with Yun Tianbiao.
Yun Tianbiao listened to Murong Yanda's words and said: "Although the young general and Huang Dujian killed the two copycat leaders in Qingzhen Mountain, they never took advantage of them afterwards. Now I heard that there was a man named Song Jiang who integrated The robbers from all over the mountain have robbed so much money. I am afraid that they will recruit more troops and make it more difficult to control in the future."
Huang Xin also said: "There are many leaders on the mountain. Last time, we attacked the mountain and let him break it. When we arrived at Qingfeng Village, we learned that Liu Gao had been killed, and Liu Gaohun's family was ordered to take them to the mountain. If they were to divide their troops and defend them, it would be difficult to break the stronghold. "
Qin Ming was impatient and couldn't help but get anxious after hearing this. He shouted: "This can't be done, that can't be done either. Why don't we just suppress it?" The official came to the hall with an urgent document and wanted to see my husband."
Murong Yanda heard this and said, "It's probably a matter of birthday."
The official asked to meet him. He said, "I already know about this matter, and I am discussing with the military commander of my mansion to attack the Songjiang village. I will compile a letter and you can take it back to the Grand Master."
As he said that, he asked someone to take it. Go and rest while working in this house.
Murong Yanda turned around and went back and said: "Now the Grand Master has written a document asking us to catch the thief who robbed the birthday card. How dare we delay this matter? If things go wrong, I can still escape unscathed. At worst, I will find another place to serve as an official. You and others will not be able to do anything. He is the general in charge of the army in this state. If the culprit cannot be arrested, the grand master will not be punished, but he will be dismissed."
Qin Mingdao: "Tomorrow I will order 3,000 people. To attack Qingfeng Mountain, Huang Du supervised the soldiers and horses of Qingfeng Village to attack Taohua Mountain. General Manager Yun still went to attack Qingzhen Mountain. They agreed on a date and attacked them together, so that they could not look at each other. "
Yun Tianbiao said: "Although this plan is good, I'm afraid he will defeat it one by one. There are at least seven or eight thousand people on the mountain now, and there are more than ten brave leaders. I'm afraid it's not something that my government can wipe out."
