Tang Qi shook his head with a strange expression, and said in a low voice: "My lord, we didn't kill him."
"Huh?" Lin Mang frowned, slightly surprised.
Tang Qi explained: "It was a group of forces in the city headed by the Su family who did it. They were fighting with bandits when we entered the city."
Lin Mang frowned and remained silent.
"Where is the man?"
After the words fell, a group of people rushed over from a distance.
With tears in his eyes, Su Lie said excitedly: "My lord, the people of Yanshan finally look forward to your lords coming."
A group of people stepped forward excitedly, as if they were about to kneel down in the next moment.
Lin Mang glanced at everyone calmly, and asked directly, "Why was Yanshan County captured by horse bandits?"
Su Lie was shocked.
This one is not easy to fool.
Carefully looking up at Lin Mang, he said with a sad face, "My lord, you don't know. These bandits threatened the people outside the city. The magistrate Gao had no choice but to lead the county soldiers in the city out of the city to rescue, but just before returning to the city At that time, the county captain suddenly turned his back on the battle and led his people to open the city gate, which led to the bandits entering the city."
Lin Mang said calmly, "So, you are still heroes?"
Su Lie hesitated in his heart, why did this tone sound strange.
At this moment, a loud laugh suddenly came from the distant eaves.
It was a man dressed as a scholar.
"Patriarch Su, your shamelessness really makes Tang even bow down."
"Ha ha!"
"It's obvious that you guys took our money, opened the gate of the city, killed a group of Jinyi guards, and saw the magistrate of Yanshan die under the city wall with your own eyes. How come you are now good people?"
Su Lie's face changed slightly.
Immediately angrily reprimanded: "Bold bandit, don't talk nonsense, come here, kill him quickly."
Lin Mang glanced at him coldly, Su Lie's heart trembled slightly, his face became extremely pale, and beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead.
He never thought that these people from aristocratic families would be loyal and serve the country.
In fact, when the city of Yanshan was broken, the first objects of his suspicion were these people from the aristocratic and powerful families.
Lin Mang looked at the figure dressed as a scholar in the distance, and said coldly, "Who ordered you to do all this?"
The scholar chuckled, but did not answer, but looked at the sky, and calmly said: "Master Lin, I know you, but do you know? I used to be full of ambitions, but in the end, I couldn't match the words of those incompetent people."
"The qualifications of the second place in the list are mediocre, and there is no strategy for governing the country, but there is no name on the top of the list!"
"This world is like this thousands of years ago, and it will still be like this thousands of years later. After all, you and I can't fight against it."
The scholar waved a secret letter and said with a big smile, "Master Lin, it's rare to be confused sometimes!"
When the words fell, he died of anger.
Lin Mang turned around slowly, with a grim expression on his face: "Put Su Lie and his party all in prison, and if they dare to resist, they will be shot to death!"
"Yes!"
The vigorous drinking seemed to shatter the wind and snow.
Su Lie trembled all over, as if he had lost all his strength, and collapsed powerlessly to the ground.
"It's over!"
Lin Mang slowly opened the envelope in his hand...
With a glance, an imperceptible chuckle suddenly appeared on his face.
Chapter 93
Outside Yanshan City
The soldiers of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion and the Hejian Mansion Army from Hejian Fucheng were slowly moving forward.
The sound of horseshoes!
The baggage truck left a deep rut in the snow...
A Song character flag fluttered in the cold wind.
Although the weather is already February, this year's heavy snow seems to be extraordinarily long, and it hasn't stopped at all.
The whole of Da Ming was severely affected by the disaster.
As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good year, but who knows how many people will be affected under the continuous heavy snow.
There are many displaced persons.
This time, in order to wipe out the sub-helm of the White Lotus Sect, the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion dispatched a total of more than [-] people, plus [-] government troops, which is considered a huge momentum.
However, these 4000 people include auxiliary soldiers and logistics arms, and the number of real combatants is actually no more than [-].
In front of the army, Li Mingcheng was riding a snow-white thousand-mile horse, with a relaxed expression on his face.
Although the cold weather made him extremely irritable, as long as he thought that that damned little mouse had turned into a cold corpse at this moment, his mood would be much better.
As for the fall of Yanshan, in his opinion, mere horse bandits are nothing to worry about.
When the army arrives, they must bow their heads obediently.
What's more, since the news came from the shadow guard, it is estimated that his father had already planned.
Since he was a child, he never believed in himself.
Although he entrusted the task to himself, he didn't think that guy would have no backup.
Song Jingwence immediately stepped forward and drove alongside him, with worry in his eyes, he said in a low voice: "Brother Li, if we delay the time like this, we have already missed the opportunity of the war. This is a big taboo in the army, and this is a capital offense."
A journey that could have been completed in two days, but it took four days.
Even if his father is the Minister of the Ministry of War, if it really spread to the ears of the saint, he will not escape the responsibility.
Li Mingcheng chuckled, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Brother Song, we didn't delay the time. It's freezing cold, and the army is moving slowly. Isn't this what should happen?"
Li Mingcheng didn't say a word.
What about a dead person.
As long as they can successfully regain Yanshan County, no matter what the process is, they will all be heroes.
As for how many people will die, no one really cares.
common people?
No, those are thieves!
Seeing that Li Mingcheng had said this, Song Jingwen let go of his worries.
Anyway, it was Li Mingcheng who came up with the idea, and even if something happened, it was Li Mingcheng who carried it.
……
In the carriage behind, the magistrate Gao Mingyuan opened the curtain, looked forward, and shook his head slightly.
In his opinion, this young master is still too impatient.
Jin Yiwei has already urged him three times, but this young master has deliberately delayed the marching speed again and again. If Jin Yiwei finds out about it, he will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility.
Even if His Majesty wants to give him a lighter punishment for the sake of the Li family's face, people from the military department will not let him go.
What's more, those censors have long been ready to verbally criticize Lord Hou.
Ordinary officials may be afraid of Lord Hou, but among the group of censors, there are always some tough people.
To leave a name in history, what they see is much more important than life.
A few days ago, in the name of Marquis Wuqing's Mansion, this little Marquis bought a thousand households from the guard of Hejian Mansion and asked him to send people to attack and kill Lin Mang.
If this matter is known, it will definitely leave a handle.
……
Soon, the mottled walls of Yanshan City gradually came into everyone's sight.
Li Mingcheng looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, bandits have invaded Yanshan County. As soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, how can we tolerate the arrogance of these bandits?"
Song Jingwen raised his sword and shouted: "Squeeze out the rebels and recover Yanshan!"
"Destroy the rebels and recover the Salt Mountain!"
The sergeants behind them started to drink violently.
There is no quicker route to merit as a soldier than in war.
A smile appeared on Li Mingcheng's face.
Lin Mang, Lin Mang, I will definitely choose a good tomb for you.
The army accelerated its advance.
But the next moment, the smiles on the faces of several people gradually froze.
On the city wall, stood rows of Jinyiwei with solemn faces.
The standing flying fish flag fluttered wantonly in the wind.
Li Mingcheng's face changed slightly, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Jin Yiwei?"
In the carriage behind, Gao Mingyuan's eyes also widened, and his heart suddenly felt bad.
How could it be Jin Yiwei?
The people of the White Lotus Sect failed?
How can it be?
He actually knew all about the horse bandits attacking Yanshan.
Yanshan County was the only place that didn't obey his orders. If so, the magistrate of Yanshan County should be replaced.
Those horse bandits are just pawns that he and the White Lotus Sect can discard at any time.
I really thought that a group of horse bandits could wantonly burn, kill and loot in Hejian Mansion.
That may not be too underestimating the power of the government.
Of course, there was a little accident during this process, and even he never expected that this group of horse bandits would be able to capture Yanshan County.
Everything they did was to lure Jin Yiwei to come.
Then Jin Yiwei was pushed to the horse bandits until his death.
The dignified Jinyiwei was not only wiped out by the entire army, but was also buried in the hands of horse bandits. If word spread, Jinyiwei will completely lose its majesty in the future.
At the same time, it was time for Cheng Hongnian, who served as the appeasement envoy, to step down.
There are many members of the White Lotus Sect here, and there are not a few strong ones among them. Logically speaking, these Jinyiwei should die.
After Jin Yiwei died, when the army arrived, without the help of the White Lotus Sect, how would these horse bandits resist the army.
From beginning to end, these horse bandits were pawns in the hands of him and the White Lotus Sect.
This is a plan against Jin Yiwei, and it is also a meritorious deed to the little marquis.
But the scene in front of him made his heart feel like falling into an ice valley.
Li Mingcheng looked gloomy.
Before everyone could react, a team of Jinyiwei in the city galloped out and surrounded everyone.
Holding the knife in one hand, Lin Mang slowly climbed up the city wall.
Holding a jug of wine in his hand, he looked down at everyone and said with a light smile, "Everyone, are you surprised to see me?"
"Are you thinking that this official and his Jin Yiwei should die here?"
Li Mingcheng's pupils shrank slightly.
He quickly pretended to be calm and said, "Master Lin, I don't know what you are talking about?"
"Heh!" Lin Mang took a sip and laughed loudly, "Don't you understand what I'm talking about?"
