Chapter 350
Ren Yingying and Lan Fenghuang entered the Li family compound under the guidance of Ning Zhongze.
As for the wolf packs under their command, they disbanded on the spot and entered the nearby Shanglin.
Of course, in order to prevent the wild wolves from hurting people, Ren Yingying and the others gave orders to the wild wolves before entering, and Li Hao also arranged for the generals guarding the city to feed the wild wolves regularly.
These wolves are the best scouts. If someone attacks them at night, it is estimated that these wild wolves will be enough to give them a pot of water and teach them how to be human.
"Report, General Chang Yuchun and General Xu Da have defeated the Liangshan bandits, beheaded more than 50,000 people, captured 80,000 people, and the rest of the bandits fled in all directions, and countless people fell into the water. The bandit leader Song Jiang and his 53 subordinates have all surrendered and are now being taken to Dayan City. Please let the young master decide."
Li Hao had just returned to the city and was about to go back to feel the enthusiasm of the Miao women when an urgent battle report from the front line came in.
"Aren't there 108 bandits in Liangshan? Why only 53 surrendered?" Li Hao asked the messenger covered in dust.
"Report to the young master, Liangshan bandit Song Jiang led 300,000 troops to invade our Li family's territory by water. General Xu Da and General Chang Yuchun personally led the army to fight with them in the waters of Poyang Lake Laoye Temple for nearly a month."
"Although the Liangshan bandits are numerous, their military discipline is lax, the march is not strict, the navy and the army do not cooperate properly, and the command is not unified. On the battlefield, it is often the case that soldiers cannot find their generals, and generals cannot see their soldiers, so that the combat effectiveness is weak."
"Seeing this, General Xu Da ordered General Chang Yuchun to lead the army to attack the Liangshan bandit camp from the periphery. General Xu Da personally led the elite to pretend to be bandits and raid the central army camp, beheading countless people, and captured Song Jiang and others in one fell swoop. As for the rest of the small leaders, it is estimated that they have been shot into a hornet's nest." The messenger knelt on the ground and briefly explained what happened.
"That means Song Jiang didn't surrender, but was captured, right?" Li Hao asked, touching his chin.
"Yes, but after Song Jiang was captured, he ordered the bandits to lay down their weapons and surrender to us, so we captured 80,000 of them."
"Where are the remaining 100,000 of the 300,000 bandits? Did all these people run away?" Li Hao asked seriously.
If you don't cut the grass at the root, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
These bandits are a big cancer, and if you want to kill them, you have to kill them without leaving a single piece of armor.
Otherwise, so many people will just occupy a mountain and become the king, and the ordinary people will suffer.
"This... Sir, the actual number of beheadings is more than 50,000. It was a naval battle, and many enemies died and fell into the water to feed the fish. We cannot count these numbers. There are also countless people who were burned to death and drowned."
"The water in the Laoye Temple is turbulent and the undercurrent is turbulent. Many bandit bodies sank directly to the bottom of the water. We don't know exactly how many sank. Anyway, only a dozen boats escaped. General Chang Yuchun personally led people to pursue them." The soldier drank a sip of water and said carefully.
It's all General Xu Da's fault. The statistics of military merits must be based on the actual number of beheadings. Those who fell into the water to feed the fish have no merit at all.
If more were reported, the young master would not have any doubts.
"Well, Chang Yuchun is good, he knows how to root out the enemies. Go back and tell Xu Da and Chang Yuchun that I am very satisfied with them. Also, don't worry about chasing after the enemy, I want to kill them all." Li Hao was so aggressive that the murderous aura that almost formed a substance almost scared the pawn who reported the news.
My God, this seemingly harmless young man has more murderous aura than the two generals.
"Where are the captives!" Seeing that the pawn's face turned pale, Li Hao knew that he had scared him, and quickly asked with his momentum.
"Just outside the city, Mr. Murong Bo said that he would hold a captive offering ceremony, and the old housekeeper is preparing things." As soon as Li Hao finished speaking, Yingnu stepped forward and said.
She is now Li Hao's exclusive female official, that is, the type of secretary in later generations.
All the big and small things of the Li family will be reported to her, and then she will quickly organize and tell Li Hao when he asks.
Whether in the past or present life, it is important to have secretaries do things when there is something to do, and to do nothing when there is nothing to do.
"A bunch of bandits, why do you have a prisoner surrender ceremony? Just kill them all." Li Hao snorted coldly.
Prisoner surrender ceremony is a waste of money and labor!
"The old housekeeper said that these Liangshan bandits are a great victory for my Li family's homeland defense war, so we have to make it lively."
"Also, the old housekeeper said that Song Jiang and others cannot be killed, and they must be kept to restrain the surrendered bandits!"
"After all, these bandits are desperate people who are willing to sacrifice their lives. If they are used well, they will be a great help to the Li family in the future." Yingnu looked at Li Hao's deep eyes and couldn't help but say everything the old housekeeper told him.
"Humph, no needWhy not just kill them all? Are you still planning to celebrate the New Year if you keep them here? These guys are an unstable factor. The Li family army is about to set off for Mount Tai. When the rear is empty, who knows what these thieves will do. "Li Hao said fiercely.
The Taishan Heaven Sacrifice is actually a melee among the heroes.
The Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are all powerful, and Li Hao doesn't know how many unknown forces are hidden behind them.
Therefore, he must have a stable rear, otherwise when the rear is in chaos, his own army will also be affected.
The war is imminent, if the army is unstable, the success rate will immediately lose 30%.
"But if Song Jiang and the others are killed, the surrendered Liangshan bandits will probably go berserk if the news spreads." Yingnu said in embarrassment.
If the 80,000 surrendered bandits are in chaos, it is estimated that the Li family army will also suffer heavy losses.
"Didn't I say it? Kill them all. How can they start a chaos when everyone is dead? "Li Hao looked at Yingnu with a puzzled look. Could this guy have misunderstood the words "kill all three people"?
"Eighty thousand...kill them all. With so many people, the executioner will probably be exhausted to death." Yingnu asked tremblingly after hearing what Li Hao said.
It's too terrible. Is this the legendary king's aura?
With just one sentence, the life and death of more than 80,000 people were determined.
In Yingnu's eyes, this so-called king's aura is the evolution of murderous aura.
Otherwise, how can this king's aura shock the villains and make those demons and monsters dare not move.
"You are so stupid. Do you need the executioner to take action for such a small number of people? You organize these captives to dig a pit. The deeper the pit, the better."
"At that time, we can..." Li Hao made a gesture of cutting a neck, and anyone with a discerning eye would know it.
