Chapter 327: Longchi Axe and Tomahawk, Liu's Kingdom (8)(1/2)
Chapter 327: Dragon Pool Axe, Liu's Kingdom (8)
Perhaps from the perspective of later generations, the mother-child sword is ordinary and not a great thing.
I vaguely remember that there was a movie called "New Dragon Inn". The upright hero in it also uses the mother-child sword.
However, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, influenced by the Warring States style, most of the knights were born with their own abilities and generally did not use any tricks. It was very rare in many martial arts novels where hidden weapons were flying all over the sky. The so-called thieves also have their own principles, which is the truth.
This is especially true for famous figures like Gai Nie.
It’s no big deal to draw a sword to face each other in a disagreement. However, using the mother-child sword is a despicable method and is shameless.
Since Gai Nie used the mother-child sword, he showed how determined he was to kill Liu Kan.
He wanted to kill Liu Kan, so Liu Kan would not be polite. If he hadn't been wearing cloth armor made by a thin woman before he left, blocking Gai Nie's fatal blow, he would have been a dead body now. He was furious in his heart, and Liu Kan slashed the flag and slashed it horizontally... But the moment he hit Gai Nie, his heart suddenly moved, and the red flag sank suddenly sank, cutting Gai Nie's arm holding the sword.
Blood splattered Liu Kan's face.
Gai Nie screamed and fell into a pool of blood. Zi Jian also fell to the ground with his cut off arm.
More than ten personal soldiers rushed forward, and the bright sword was placed on Gai Nie's neck and pressed him tightly. Zhong Limei picked up the sword from the ground and handed it to Liu Kan. A faint green appeared on the blade of the cold sword, which was shocking.
"Lord, the sword is stained with poison!"
Zhonglimei's face changed and he said softly.
Liu Kan couldn't help but feel a sudden slap in her heart. She glanced at the thin sword about two feet long and only one finger wide, and the murderous intent in her heart became even stronger.
"Master, are you okay?"
The girl ran over surrounded by several people, looking at the sword hole on Liu Kan's clothes on her chest, her face pale and her voice trembled slightly.
Liu Kan was also secretly afraid.
If he hadn't put on this cloth armor, he would have lost his life long ago.
Not to mention anything else, I was cut a little bit by the sword blade. Today I was just told here...
He forced a smile, and Liu Kan said with a gentle voice: "Bo'er, if it weren't for the cloth armor you gave me, I would have been in great danger today!"
A blush appeared on the thin woman's pale face. She lowered her head and the snow-white jade neck showed a graceful curve.
Liu Kan said: "Bo'er, you go back to the mansion first... slaughter and disperse everyone at the city gate. Zhongli immediately sent someone to warn the city. It is not an accidental thing that Gai Nie can assassinate in broad daylight, and needs to be carefully investigated."
"Here!"
Li Cheng and Kuai Che looked at each other and vaguely guessed Liu Kan’s thoughts.
Gai Nie looked bloody and shouted angrily: "Liu Kan, this matter is done by me alone, so don't involve others."
Liu Kan let out a long sigh, slowly walked to Gai Nie, waved his hand to signal, and his personal soldiers retreated aside. He was not afraid of Gai Nie who had lost his arm, let alone Gai Nie who had lost his arm... Squatted down and quietly looked at Gai Nie who had no blood on his face and was as pale as paper. After a long time, Liu Kan said: "Brother Nie, you have lived for so many years and are still known as a hero, but you are a bastard who does not distinguish between right and wrong."
"Liu Kan, you can kill me, don't insult me!"
Liu Kan sighed, "I am not insulting you, but want to tell you a fact."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked the accompanying doctor to come over to stop the bleeding for Gai Nie and bandage the wound.
"You said I was ungrateful, but do you know what the Ushinori did after entering Henan?
You may say, I am framed... Haha, why do I need to frame him Wu Shi?
In just two years, he forcibly seized the pasture of 300 miles under the Hangjin Mountain. He occupied all the cattle, sheep and horses in the farm. There were as many as 47 women he snatched away by Quyan City. Anyone with a little beauty, his Wu family colluded with the government and ravaged them in the name of capturing fugitive slaves.
He destroyed the thirteen families.
One hundred and twenty-six families were displaced, either robbed by him as slaves, or killed by him...
There are countless such things. And this is only Quyan. Jiuyuan, Xincheng... Among the forty-four cities in Henan, there are seventeen of them, including the unjust cases caused by his Wu family. Brother Nie, I will not say anything else. I just ask you one thing, if you have nothing to do with his Wu family, what will you think after hearing these many things? Could it be that you are accomplices of the tiger?"
Gai Nie's face turned pale, and a hint of shock and sinisterness rose.
Liu Kan then said, "If the Wu clan is just bullying men and women and robbing the people's wealth, I would not have left him a life, and at most he would drive him back to the Wu clan. But he shouldn't have colluded with the barbarians, attempting to occupy the land of Henan, occupy Fengwo of Hebei, and proclaim himself king."
"What?"
Gai Nie was really surprised this time.
"He colluded with the Huns and imported a large amount of copper and iron into Longcheng.
As far as I know, your brother Nie has also helped him escort goods several times. Who is the Huns? He captured my people, killed me, and destroyed my home... General Meng Tian and the eldest son almost gathered half of the country's power to drive them out of Henan. But now, you and the Wu clan sold copper and iron to the Huns. Now he is weak, but when he is strong, he will definitely make a comeback and harm millions of creatures in Henan! They are a group of evil wolves... And your brother Nie is the accomplice of raising wolves and selling the country!"
Gai Nie's breath was heavy, his pale face was even more red as blood.
Since he became famous, countless villains died under his sword. When Renren heard his name, he would give him a thumbs up and praise him. Renhe respects friendship, despise life and death, and regards the law as dirt. Gai Nie never felt that there was anything wrong with this, and even believed that men should be like this. But today, what he valued in the past was worthless by Liu Kan.
Although Gai Nie did not understand any national justice, he knew that the barbarians harmed living beings.
Born in Yuci, he had seen many tragic situations after being washed by the barbarians. But he never thought that these things were related to him.
Right, or wrong?
This influx of emotions made Gai Nietian dizzy.
Seeing that he was excited, Li Cheng immediately became alert and waved his hand to signal the personal soldiers to prepare. As long as Gai Nie was inappropriate, he would immediately kill him on the spot. However, Liu Kan didn't care and looked at Gai Nie quietly. After a long time, Gai Nie suddenly shouted: "Don't say anything more!"
"Okay, if you don't let me say it, I won't say it!"
Liu Kan stood up, "I still said that the most hero is for the country and the people. What is a hero? It is not that you can call it a "hero" by picking up a sword, killing a few villains, and eliminating a few corrupt officials. A man should defend his country and stand firm... Brother Nie, think about it yourself. If you think what I said is wrong, you still have your left hand, and use the sword to kill me."
After saying that, he said to the doctor: "I will be treated by the hero Gai!"
The personal soldiers on the side led the horses over, and Liu Kan turned over and walked towards the city, without looking at Gai Nie again.
If he had a dream of a knight in his heart before this, then now he has no nostalgia... So what about the so-called knight?
I have accomplished a great cause in the world. How can I talk to you like someone who commits crimes?
It was at this moment that Liu Kan no longer had any ideas such as "equality" or "democracy". Unconsciously, he had transformed into a person who could look down on the people. Gai Nie, the world's number one swordsman... It's another thing!
Li Cheng and Kuai Che urged the horse to follow.
The doctor followed the army waved and signaled the medical staff to come up and lifted Gai Nie with a simple stretcher.
This time, Gai Nie did not struggle anymore, but lay in a drowsy position on the stretcher, his mind becoming more and more blurred, and in the end, he fell into a coma.
Mayi was in panic.
After Liu Kan returned to the government office, he immediately summoned Kuai Che and Li Cheng and Zhong Li Mei.
"Zhongli, you immediately gather people and set off overnight to control Pingcheng and Shanshan. Search carefully and capture all those involved in the assassination. Never let anyone go."
"Here!"
Zhonglimei got up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Kuai Che.
"General Zhongli, do you know how to search?"
Zhong Limei was stunned and looked at Kuai Che in confusion, then looked at Liu Kan and Li Cheng again, and was confused for a moment.
"It seems that you don't understand the lord's intention!"
Kuai Che smiled and said, "On the way back, I heard Shoushen say that the lord is preparing to implement the new law in Henan. Haha, since it is the implementation of the new law, it will inevitably violate the interests of some people. If these people are quite powerful in the local area, wouldn't it cause a big deal?"
Zhonglimei just didn't turn around in a row.
He was born as a village man and had a straightforward temperament. It is impossible for people like Kuai Che to have many associations in one thing.
However, Zhong Limei was valued by Liu Kan, after all, he was not a fool. He quickly understood Liu Kan's intention.
Liu Kan said: "Zhongli, you may think this is inappropriate.
It is necessary to implement the new method. It is like a thorn. If you want to hold it in your hand, you must get rid of the thorn. Fortunately, Henan is not as large as the Qinchuan in Guanzhong in the past, with a vast land of 800 miles and sparsely populated people. Even if there are those powerful people, their foundation is not deep.
When the quick knife cuts the mess, when the Yanmen moves, the clouds move; when the clouds move, the Jiuyuan and even the entire Henan will move.
How many people will die in Henan and how much blood will shed depends on your methods.
If you do it beautifully, the gentry everywhere will be frightened by it, which will naturally reduce a lot of trouble, reduce the amount of blood, and kill many people; but if you drag on the mud, you are afraid that blood will flow into a river. In short, I will not ask about the process, I will only ask about the result."
Zhonglimei's mouth twitched slightly twice, and he intervened, saying, "Don't worry, lord, I will solve all problems within ten days!"
"You will inevitably feel a little tired when you guard Yanmen alone.
I will send Li Chi to help you... In addition, you must try your best to gather local officials in Yanmen and not let government affairs be relaxed.
Also, the reorganization of the army must be resolved as soon as possible.
I predict that within two months, my Henan area will usher in a big battle. By then, I hope you have digested these soldiers... Well, I will send your old partner Guan Ying over, and I will let Tu Tu stay and help you. After all, he was from the Lantian Camp and was behind the general. With him and Li Chi to help you, he should be able to suppress the old Qin Ruis."
Li Chi was the second son of Li You. He was proficient in Qin laws and used laws. He was once the chief minister of Luoyang.
Not to mention Tu Tu, he was the son of the former national lieutenant Tu Sui. Tu Sui later died of the failure to conquer southern Xinjiang, but he naturally had his ability to be the head coach. With the assistance of these two people, it could greatly alleviate the tension of the Qin army.
"Kuai Che, you send someone to Dai County to contact Li Shaojun.
If I guess it is good, the situation in Shandong will change soon... Please seize the opportunity and act on your own. Once Li Shaojun takes action, Shoushen should provide sufficient assistance in the clouds to stabilize the situation in the entire northern border as soon as possible, and never let it go out again with turmoil."
Kuai Che and Li Cheng stood up to answer the order.
Liu Kan sat in the hall, dazed for a while.
Another former friend turned against him... I said that he was righteous, but in fact, what he said was really great?
Liu Kan spread out a piece of white paper, hesitated for a moment, and picked up his pen to write.
To be continued...
