rebirth first official

Gao Zhanming and Li Jingruo walked downstream along the Yangtze River, going ashore by boat, and arrived at Wushan a few days later.As Li Jingruo said, after passing Qutang Gorge, the scenery becomes more beautiful and the road becomes more dangerous.

When we arrived at Wu Gorge, it took more than half a month to go, and it was time to return after visiting this point.

Wushan has a unique scenery, with a total of twelve peaks. The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, and when the clouds and rain come, it is like a fairyland.

The boat stopped by the river, Gao Zhanming and Li Jingruo went ashore, stood on the bank and looked up at the mountains.During the past few days, Gao Zhanming would occasionally miss the affairs of Jiazhou Mansion, wondering if anything happened to Jiazhou Mansion during the few days he left.But here, ready to return, Gao Zhanming began to feel sad again.Happy times always go by so fast.

Li Jingruo pointed to a mountain not far away and said, "That is the most famous Goddess Peak in Wushan."

Gao Zhanming followed his direction, and saw a huge boulder protruding from the clouds on the green peak, like a slim girl.

Li Jingruo said with a smile: "Madam, have you heard of the allusion of Wushan Yunyu?"

Gao Zhanming said, "Naturally."

Li Jingruo sighed: "If you can do things like clouds and rain here, it will be a day like a fairy."

Gao Zhanming glanced at him sideways, and said calmly: "This is also Brother Yaoran's jurisdiction. If you like it, why not move the Dudu Mansion here, marry a local woman, and live a stable life for the rest of your life. Fairy day."

Li Jingruo sighed quietly: "Madam is still puzzled as always."

Gao Zhanming was already used to his frivolity, so he just pretended not to hear it.

Li Jingruo said: "The Yunwu tea and Xuezao here are famous all over the world. While it's still early, let's go to the mountain to buy some Yunwu tea before going back."

Gao Zhanming said, "Alright."

Li Jingruo brought about thirty guards with him on this trip. In order not to disturb the pleasure of the two masters, the guards followed them from a distance. At this moment, the guards were stationed a hundred meters away.

Gao Zhanming turned his head and glanced at the guards, he was about to follow Li Jingruo into the mountain, when he suddenly saw a group of people dressed as porters carrying bamboo baskets walking out of the mountain ahead, roughly a dozen or so.

Li Jingruo also saw those people, looked at them from afar, and said, "It looks like they are porters."

People living in the mountains are short of supplies and isolated from the outside world. Every month, they go to the mountains in groups to exchange necessary supplies for life.

Li Jingruo said: "Let's go and ask them if they have any special products. If they have, we don't have to go into the mountains."

Gao Zhanming hummed, but stood still.

Suddenly, dozens of arrows flew out from behind the rocks behind the guards, only to hear the screams and the neighing of horses, and several guards fell to the ground with arrows!

The defenders shouted: "There are assassins! Hurry up and protect the governor and the county magistrate!"

The guards were ambushed and fell into chaos. Arrows kept flying out from behind the rocks. Some guards rushed towards Li Jingruo and Gao Zhanming on horseback.Some guards rushed to the place where the arrows came from to catch the attackers, but they were forced to approach by the dense arrow rain!

Li Jingruo reacted quickly, and immediately pulled Gao Zhanming to the ground.Since the guards were still some distance away from them, the arrows did not come towards them, but only attacked the guards.

Gao Zhanming frowned: "It seems that they want to capture us alive."

Suddenly, the woodcutters not far away threw away their hats and bamboo hats, took out their swords from their baskets, and rushed towards Li Jingruo and Gao Zhanming!

A few guards behind also escaped from the arrow formation and ran towards Li Jingruo: "Protect the governor!"

Gao Zhanming frowned more and more tightly: "It's the rebels!"

Li Jingruo still has the leisure to tease Gao Zhanming at this moment: "Ma'am, something is wrong!"

Just at the critical moment, a rain of arrows suddenly shot from another direction, and only heard a few screams, it was those rebels disguised as woodcutters who fell to the ground with arrows!

The situation was reversed in a moment, and I saw a mass of men and horses massacred out of the nearby rocks and under the bridge piers. There were hundreds of people, all wearing plain clothes of woodcutters and peasants, armed with swords and spears, well-trained At first glance, they are officers and soldiers.The leader turned out to be Song Nuo with the scar on his face!

Before the disguised rebels could get close to Li Jingruo and Gao Zhanming, they were shot into hedgehogs by arrows, and none of them survived.A moment later, the rebels who were hiding behind the rocks and shooting arrows were also captured alive by the officers and soldiers who were ambushing deeper and escorted out.

A few guards who were lucky enough to escape from the sneak attack ran to Gao Zhanming and Li Jingruo, and surrounded them nervously with their weapons raised: "Lord Governor, are you alright?"

Li Jingruo and Gao Zhanming supported each other and stood up, patting the ashes on their bodies: "It's okay."

The ambushing rebels were forced out by cutting their hands behind their backs.The expression on his face was still bewildered, he never expected that he would be ambushed by mantis, cicada and oriole behind him.

Li Jingruo saw that the rebels were dead and captured, and he waved his hand to signal the guards around him to step back a little.

He glanced at Gao Zhanming, and saw that Gao Zhanming was calm and calm, without any frightened appearance, and said, "Madam, are you okay?"

Gao Zhanming was very calm: "It's not hurt."

Li Jingruo had a smile on his lips: "Madam is really calm."

Gao Zhanming squinted at him: "Isn't the governor the same?"

Li Jingruo raised his eyebrows: "When did you see it?"

Gao Zhanming remained silent.Li Jingruo didn't discuss this matter with him, but he felt something was wrong from the first day of the trip.Knowing that the defenders and rebels in Jiazhou Mansion are connected, if the defenders hadn't intentionally condoned them that day, the rebels would not have escaped from the city so easily.The rebels hadn't been completely captured yet, so these people should be useless, but this time when Li Jingruo went out, all the guards he brought were officers and soldiers from Jiazhou Prefecture.From then on, Gao Zhanming became suspicious.Of course, Li Jingruo was in Jiazhou, so it made sense to borrow someone from Jiazhou Mansion.

After they traveled for a few days, Gao Zhanming saw someone setting off smoke on the first night.If the common people light a fire to cook, there are so many forests in the mountains, there will never be a shortage of firewood.Ignite a fire with wolf dung, the smoke is too dusty and the smell is suffocating, so it is not a good material for starting a fire, but the smoke after burning wolf dung gathers straight and does not disperse when the wind blows, so it is often used as a signal transmission.For example, during a war, if it is difficult to communicate, the officers and soldiers defending the city will use beacon smoke as a signal to summon reinforcements.This point, Gao Zhanming wanted it, but Li Jingruo, a shrewd person, couldn't have imagined it.He reminded Li Jingruo once, but Li Jingruo turned a blind eye to it, he knew that Li Jingruo must have known about it, and had already made arrangements to invite the king into the urn, so he saw the wolf smoke again in the next few days, and he didn't say anything.

They stayed in a Taoist temple last night. Li Jingruo played chess with the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple for half an hour. Gao Zhanming wandered around in the Taoist temple and saw a few Taoist priests with muscled muscles and steady steps. They didn't look like ordinary Taoist priests. He seemed to have practiced kung fu, so he was more sure that although Li Jingruo had brought dozens of guards with him, he would not take his life as a joke.

Li Jingruo said: "Madam is smart, I can't hide anything from you."

Gao Zhanming looked calm and didn't say a word.

Li Jingruo walked out of the crowd and walked towards the rebels.

Song Nuo put a knife on the neck of the leading rebel army. Li Jingruo stepped forward and asked Song Nuo, "What's his name?"

Song Nuo said, "Zhang Liu."

Li Jingruo raised his eyebrows: "Oh? You are the Zhang Liu who gathered people to drink and make trouble?"

Song Nuo said: "This time the rebel army was led by him."

Li Jingruo nodded, and clicked his tongue regretfully: "He is courageous and can buy people's hearts. It's a pity, it's really a pity."

Zhang Liu stared at him bitterly: "Bah! The cat is crying and the mouse is pretending to be merciful! Since I fell into your hands today, you can kill or cut it as you like!"

Li Jingruo smiled gracefully: "He is a man, but unfortunately he is ignorant of current affairs. If you fall into my hands today, don't you hate the governor's ingenuity? If you express your admiration and say a few good words of compliment, Maybe the governor appreciates you, so maybe I will spare you this time. Now is the time to employ people."

Zhang Liu was startled, showing hesitation.

Li Jingruo laughed loudly, turned to Gao Zhanming and said with a smile: "Magistrate Gao, look, I made a joke with him, but he took it seriously." His expression was quite regrettable, "I made a joke with you, why do you Is not a word true?"

Everyone at the scene looked at this lord governor who didn't play cards according to common sense inexplicably.

Song Nuo couldn't help asking: "Captain, how should these rebels be dealt with?"

Li Jingruo spat out two words coldly: "Execute on the spot and leave no one behind."

Song Nuo was startled, frowned, and retorted: "Lord Governor, it's inappropriate."

Li Jingruo said: "There is nothing wrong. Let's execute the sentence."

Song Nuo gave his subordinates a look, and an officer stepped forward and put the knife on Zhang Liu's neck. Song Nuo left, walked to Li Jingruo, and whispered to Li Jingruo: "The whereabouts of the two adults have been leaked, guard against Zhang Liu's neck. In the army, there are fears of splinters, if all these people are disposed of, no one will be left alive, how will we catch those spies after we go back?"

Li Jingruo sneered, "That's why I want you to execute on the spot."

Song Nuo looked at him in bewilderment.

Seeing Xiaowei Song and Li Jingruo whispering, the officers and soldiers did not dare to carry out the execution for a while, and escorted the captured rebels to wait for orders.

Li Jingruo ignored Song Nuo, and was about to order the execution again, when suddenly he heard an exclamation from behind, he turned his head and saw that one of the original Jiazhou Mansion defenders turned against him and kidnapped Gao Zhanming!The traitor strangled Gao Zhanming hard, put the knife on Gao Zhanming's neck, and said coldly: "Let them all go! Otherwise, I will kill Mr. Gao!"

Seeing that the dust was about to settle, the situation suddenly changed again. All the officers and soldiers immediately put their arrows on their bows. Countless arrows with a cold light aimed at Gao Zhanming and the defender who had defected, but no one dared to act rashly. , all waiting for Li Jingruo to issue orders.

Seeing Gao Zhanming being held hostage, Li Jingruo's pupils constricted suddenly, and he cursed in a low voice, "Damn it!"

Song Nuo immediately stood in front of Li Jingruo with the knife in his hand, for fear that someone would harm Li Jingruo.

Li Jingruo slapped him open suddenly: "Idiots! That's why I want you to execute people on the spot!"

The guard who held Gao Zhanming hostage was named Wang Qi, and he was the same soldier Li Jingruo had interrogated on the night when the rebels rebelled.If Li Jingruo asked everyone to report Song Nuo, no one could tell Song Nuo's fault, but Wang Qi once said that Song Nuo had avenged his personal revenge, and took the opportunity to severely punish the rebel named Zhang Liu.It's just that Li Jingruo dismissed his appeal and ordered Song Nuo to be sent to Xiangcheng after the matter of the rebel army was settled.

Seeing that the rebels were captured, Gao Zhanming relaxed his vigilance for a while, but he didn't expect Wang Qi to turn his back on him and take him hostage.His heart suddenly hung up, flustered and flustered, only thinking that this time he might not be able to escape the catastrophe, so he stared at Li Jingruo nervously before dying.

Li Jingruo had just ordered the execution of the rebels on the spot, presumably because of the idea of ​​not pursuing further.There are thousands of Jiazhou mansion defenders, and the rebels defected from the Jiazhou mansion defenders. These soldiers get along day and night. Even if they part ways, the friendship is still there. They were able to escape smoothly, and the defenders did not suffer many casualties after "struggling".If the rebels are taken back for interrogation, all the people involved in the case must be arrested, one will lead to ten, ten will lead to hundreds, and the trouble will become even more difficult to deal with in the end.The defenders, who were afraid to make a rebellion, might also defect and make rebellion because they were worried that it would affect themselves.Only when it ends here, the rebels are executed, and no one dares to get involved in this matter, which not only reassures the remaining defenders, but also plays the role of killing chickens and monkeys, can this matter be completely brought to an end.

However, Song Nuo had come down from the battlefield.The situation on the battlefield is different from the situation in Jiazhou Mansion. Any spy must be found out, and it is better to kill by mistake than let it go. Otherwise, if someone secretly colludes with the enemy, everyone will be implicated, and the consequences will be disastrous.Just now when Song Nuo tried to stop Li Jingruo, Wang Qi, who was already guilty, was afraid of being implicated, so he jumped over the wall and hijacked him. It was a move that couldn't have been more wrong!Right now, even if Li Jingruo went back to the mountain, as long as these rebels escaped, they would not be able to let him go.In any case, he is a dead end!I never expected that before I had time to display my ambitions, I would fall to such a point today...

Gao Zhanming smiled wryly: "Brother Yaoran, I really made you miserable..."

Li Jingruo's face was gloomy and heavy like never before.

Everyone stalemate for a while, Li Jingruo said slowly: "Captain Song, if this happened before the battle and the commander was captured and threatened, what would you do?"

Some soldiers looked relaxed and hesitated to let the rebels leave, but Song Nuo said loudly: "Don't let the hijackers leave!"

Li Jingruo closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes again, fixed his deep eyes on Gao Zhanming's eyes, pointed to Gao Zhanming and several guards of the original Jiazhou mansion beside Wang Qi, and said: "You guys Back off all, back to the end!"

The guards retreated blankly and retreated into the soldiers of other state capitals, separated by people.Gao Zhanming and Wang Qi gave up an open space.

Li Jingruo took a deep breath, still staring at Gao Zhanming's eyes, but sternly said to the surrounding soldiers: "Are you all deaf! I have just issued an order to kill all the rebels, are you going to disobey the order and be disrespectful! Now, immediately, execute! No one can stay!"

There was a sound of air-conditioning all around!
