Chapter 240 Surrender
On the other side of the lake, six miles away.
Two figures stood behind them, with dense arrays of bandits.
These two people are Lin Hua and You Xian.
Wang Yan led his troops to attack He Miao, and Lin Hua and You Xian also had all the elite troops. They quietly set off their troops not far from the mountain village, intending to take the opportunity to make profits when both Wang Yan and He Miao were both injured.
"Report"
A spy ran over quickly, knelt down in front of Lin Hua, reporting: "You report to the leader of the village, Huang Zhong is still fighting with He Miao. The two sides fought on the lake, and the war was still stalemate, and no one could suppress the other."
Lin Hua nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand and said, "Continue to inquire about the news." For the spies sent out, Lin Hua asked to come back every quarter of an hour to report the news. Once the war turns around, it must be rewarded immediately. He must always grasp the situation of the battle.
You Xian looked at the departing spy and said, "From this situation, it may be difficult to decide the winner in a short time."
Lin Hua had a strong smile on his face and said, "The result I hope to see is that both sides are in a stalemate and then both lose. Only when Wang Yan and He Miao were both severely injured can you and me have the opportunity to profit from it. Whether it is the officers and soldiers who swept He Miao or He Miao defeated the officers and soldiers, it is not the best result."
You Xian echoed: "Brother Lin is wise and has a reasonable statement."
Lin Hua said: "From the current situation, it is very likely that both officers and soldiers and He Miao will suffer a loss. Wait, wait for the opportunity to appear."
You Xian nodded, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"Report"
Suddenly, another spy ran back quickly.
Lin Hua's expression suddenly became serious and asked quickly: "What happened?" The two spies rushed back one after another, and there was almost no difference in time, so something big must have happened.
The spy knelt down and reported: "The leader of the village, He Miao was defeated and was beheaded on the spot."
"ah"
Lin Hua and You Xian were shocked, and an unbelievable look appeared on their faces.
You Xian looked shocked and asked, "The situation was still in a stalemate just now, why did He Miao be killed suddenly?"
Lin Huaqiang calmed down and said in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on?"
The spy also looked particularly surprised and reported: "Reported to the village leader, the little one watched the battlefield from afar, and only saw the cattle herd suddenly rushing out of the mountain official road behind He Miao. The tails of dozens of cows were ignited and they rushed wildly. After a collision, the military formation under He Miao collapsed and the bandits were in a mess."
Lin Hua directly interrupted: "How come the herd of cows appear?"
The spy shook his head and said, "The little one doesn't know the specific reason." After a pause, the spy continued, "When the cows collided, the officers and soldiers seized the opportunity to quickly land. At this time, a cavalry of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared on the mountain. Both sides attacked inside and outside, and He Miao was killed in public, and all the bandits under He Miao had surrendered.
brush
Lin Hua's face changed drastically and he clenched his fists.
After all, there was a situation that Lin Hua was most reluctant to see.
Youxian asked, "Brother Lin, what should I do?"
Lin Hua fell into deep thought and didn't know what to do for a moment. It is definitely impossible to attack the officers and soldiers now. He Miao has been killed, so it would be useless to go to rescue him.
For a moment, Lin Hua was in a dilemma.
After a long silence, Lin Hua said, "Retreat, we will withdraw our village immediately."
You Xian said worriedly: "He Miao has been wiped out, and the next one must be us. He Miao has dominated Huang County for several years and has been defeated. Can we stop it? More importantly, through this battle, we also saw the elusive ability of officers and soldiers. It was a stalemate, but suddenly the wind direction changed. Wang Yan is not guessed."
Lin Hua said: "Brother, what do you mean?"
There was a trace of helplessness and anger in his words. Lin Hua had been in Huang County for many years and had long been used to it. In the clan, he was the local emperor and everything was decided by him. He could not accept surrendering to the officers and soldiers for a while, and he did not know what the officers and soldiers were.
You Xian replied: "I don't know Wang Yan's attitude yet, and we can't surrender immediately. I haven't come up with a good idea for how to do it."
In You Xian's opinion, Wang Yan was unable to resist the situation and could only surrender.
But if you want to surrender, Wang Yan must agree.
"Report"
At this moment, there was another spy reward.
Lin Hua asked: "What else is there?"
The spy reported: "Reported to the camp leader, there was an officer, soldier and general asking for a meeting."
"Bring here"
Lin Hua's face was solemn and even more worried. He thought he was doing something very hidden, but he didn't expect that the officers and soldiers had already discovered them.
Soon, Guan Hai walked over. Facing the bandits, Guan Hai had no fear in his eyes, but was full of contempt. He came to Lin Hua, pressed the sword on his waist with his left hand, and said in a deep voice: "Who is the leader?"
Lin Hua said: "Lin Hua is down"
Youxian said: "Youxian is here"
Guan Hai smiled and said, "You are both here, just right. The prefect sent an order to follow me to surrender immediately, otherwise He Miao would be the precedent."
Lin Hua was furious in his condescending tone.
For many years, no one dared to treat him like this.
Lin Hua looked unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Even if the general is very skilled in martial arts, there are still a few tiger-ben'erlangs under my command. It is not difficult to kill the general."
Guan Hai laughed loudly, and said contemptuously: "I have already made plans to be killed before the future. But even if I want to die, I will still have to put a few people on the back. But for such consequences, the lord will lead troops to strangle you, without leaving any chance. You have already given it to you, and you will seize it yourself."
Lin Hua was hit hard when he heard this. When he saw Guan Hai was not afraid at all, he sighed in his heart.
Immediately, Lin Hua asked, "My brother, what should I do?"
You Xian replied: "Brother Lin, Wang Taishou loves the people as much as his son, and is a noble and honest official. Why do we still have to be a bandit? When he became a bandit, it was because the officials forced the people to rebel, and because there was no way to survive, he had to be a bandit. Now, Wang Taishou is in charge of the government, Huang County will definitely live and work in peace, and we will definitely survive. I suggest submitting it."
In fact, Youxian's situation has always been the most embarrassing.
The three major bandits in Huang County, He Miao, Lin Hua and You Xian, have their strengths down one after another. He Miao and Lin Hua are both above You Xian. In order to protect themselves and not be annexed by He Miao, You Xian can only form an alliance with Lin Hua. However, there is no real friendship between the bandits and the bandits, only interests. Once Lin Hua destroys He Miao, You Xian is also very dangerous. Now that he surrenders to the government, he can protect himself.
After hearing You Xian's words, Lin Hua was completely appointed. You Xian had no intention of fighting, and Lin Hua was just fighting alone, which was difficult for a long time. Lin Hua judged the situation and said, "General, we are willing to surrender."
Guan Hai waved his hand and said, "Reorganize the army and follow me to meet the prefect."
"promise"
Lin Hua and You Xian nodded, took their bandits and headed to the mountain village.
Cottage, hall
Wang Yan, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Shi A and others sat down respectively.
Huang Zhong said: "The first battle was won, but the last general sent people back to the county town to convey the message. When the people knew about it, they would definitely cheer. Only after he wiped out He Miao, the lord had truly gained a foothold in Huang County."
Wang Yan nodded: "Yes, this battle is a battle that lays the foundation."
After a pause, Wang Yan said again: "It is of great significance to kill He Miao. But in addition, it is more important to take down this place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The mountain village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is a natural place to train troops. In the future, the troops of Donglai County will be gradually transferred to the mountain village, and only some of the troops need to be left to garrison in the city."
Huang Zhong clasped his fists and said, "Thank you lord"
Wang Yan changed his tone and said, "The aftermath of the copycat should be completed as soon as possible, and the army should be moved as soon as possible."
Huang Zhong said: "Don't worry, lord, it will be completed as soon as possible."
"Report"
A soldier ran in and reported: "Sir, the lieutenant Guan took Lin Hua and Youxian asked for a meeting."
"Bring in"
A happy smile appeared on Wang Yan's face.
