Chapter 1087 Fortune King
In the cold winter, the Cangtou River freezes and Lingshui has also freezes. On both sides of the Jiahe River, thousands of mountains and valleys are covered with snow, and animals have hibernated, but people cannot hibernate, especially a group of people who are extremely eager for food.
At this time, a group of horse thieves were driving cattle and sheep forward on the snow while near the Helin area. They had just robbed a small Tatar tribe and grabbed dozens of cattle and sheep. They were now planning to return to the mountain village.
There are about fifty people in this group of horse thieves, dressed in various clothes and weapons in their hands. The leader of the group of horse thieves was actually a young woman. The female bandit leader wore a top made of leopard skin and a black felt hat made of sable fur. She had a hot figure and was very wild. What was most shocking was that the woman's mount did not bring a saddle, just sat on the bare horse's back, driving the horse as steady as Mount Tai. This superb riding technique was amazing.
That's right, this woman is the Li family's two evil spirits who were competing for territory with Xue Bingxin. Her sister Li Mansha is responsible for leading the team out to rob.
Outside the Great Wall, where the strong prey on the weak, looting is the first rule of survival. The Tatars plunder the people of the Ming Dynasty, and different tribes often loot each other. As for horse thieves, as long as they think their strength can be swallowed, they rob anything. The Li family's double evil spirits are horse thieves on the grassland. They do not work in production and use looting as their profession.
The Li family's Shuangsha migrated from the Helan Mountain area to the underwater of Lingshui last year, but met Xue Bingxin. After failing to compete for territory, she had no choice but to move to Helin near the outer reaches of Fengzhou Sichuan.
This year, the Li family's double evil spirits led the horse thieves to "diligently" plunder the grazing Tatars and past business travelers in the Helin area, and they became famous. Because they were superb riding and plundering like the wind, they were nicknamed the mountain wind. When they mentioned this horse bandit, the nearby Tatar tribes hated and were afraid.
scold……
Li Mansha lightly clamped the horse's belly, and carried a bright saber to lead the way. The horse thieves wrapped the stolen cattle and sheep in the middle of the horse team, and kept whipping away the horses. They were skillful in their movements and did not move slowly.
However, at this moment, a powerful arrow shot from the hillside and took Li Mansha's throat. The woman reacted quickly. She slashed out quickly and slashed the arrow into the air. However, her hand holding the knife was numb. The power of the arrow surprised her.
At this time, a big flag suddenly erected on the hillside, shouting and killing sounds shook the sky, and a cavalry rushed down at lightning. There were about two or three hundred people, like a torrent of waterfall.
Li Mansha's expression changed drastically and she shouted very simply: "The wind is tight, huh!"
The horse bandits immediately discarded the robbed cattle and sheep, turned their heads and fled in panic. The number of the other party was several times that of their own. As long as their brains were not in the water, they knew that they could not fight hard. Moreover, they were originally horse bandits, and their integrity and face were all over the clouds.
However, the other party was obviously prepared and came to death. As soon as the bandit turned the horse's head, the horse's hooves sounded loudly on the other side, and a group of people came out, and they immediately surrounded the dozens of bandits in the middle.
Li Mansha's heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley. At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had fallen into the trap of the other party. The small tribe that was stolen today was just a temptation. No wonder it was done so easily.
The two teams had a total of five or six hundred people, surrounded more than 50 horse bandits including Li Mansha, but did not launch an attack. Li Mansha was shocked and suspicious, and carefully looked at the other party's troops and found that they were Han people, and many of them were holding muskets.
"Ming Jun?"
Just as Li Mansha was shocked and confused, she heard a drum sound from the hillside, and saw another man walking down slowly. A red flag was flying in the wind, with a large white font embroidered on it - Li.
But seeing a middle-aged general under the Red Banner, a long beard floated, wearing silver armor, a long sword hanging on his waist, and a long bow in his hand, it was quite a bit like a Confucian general, and it was Li Fuda, the leader of the Maitreya Sect, whose pseudonym was Zhang Yin.
Li Fuda was surrounded by fifty personal soldiers, one by one, one by one, with black helmets and black armor. In addition to the waist knives, it was also equipped with muskets, and was extremely well-equipped.
It is said that Li Fuda brought more than 10,000 rebels to the frontier and surrendered to Altan last year. He was valued by Altan and was named King of Fu by Altan, and he was given a piece of land on the edge of the Yellow River near Ordos.
Li Fuda was rewarded by Altan and immediately reciprocated his favor and helped Altan attack the left wing of the Tatars, making a lot of contributions. Although Li Fuda only had more than 10,000 people under him, he was good at generals. In addition, he brought a large number of firearms from the Ming Dynasty, which made up for the lack of cavalry combat power to a certain extent.
Fortunately, when Li Fuda was appointed as the general of Datong with his pseudonym Zhang Yin, the flintlock rifle had not been equipped to Datong, so now Li Fuda uses old-fashioned muskets. If they all use flintlock rifles, it would be a big problem.
Li Fuda came down to the periphery of the encirclement under the escort of his personal soldiers, and his eyes swept across the horse bandits with sharp eyes, and finally landed on Li Mansha, shouting loudly: "I, Li Fuda, I, and others, surrender, or die!"
The horse bandits looked at each other and looked at Li Mansha with their eyes at the same time. The latter's expression changed, and they were obviously still unsure of their minds.
"Father, you're just a few horse thieves, you can cut them off directly, why bother talking nonsense to them?" Li Dali said disapprovingly.
Li Fuda said calmly: "This group of horse thieves is very powerful, and there are hundreds of people in the clan. It would be great if they can be recruited. The key is that they are all Han people, so they can feel at ease when using them."
Li Dali nodded when he heard this and stopped talking.
Speaking of which, although Li Fuda surrendered to Altan, he did not really surrender to Altan. The two were just using each other's relationship. If Li Fuda wanted to strengthen his strength, he naturally could not recruit Tatars. I believe Altan would not allow it. Therefore, Li Fuda only recruited Han people. After a year of development, Li Fuda has now nearly 20,000 people under his command, most of them were captured Han slaves, and some were refugees who took the initiative to go out to the frontier to surrender.
So Li Fuda naturally would not let go of a horse thief like the Li family's Double Evil. In order to trap Li Mansha and his gang, he made plans in the area of Lin more than a month ago.
Sure enough, this group of greedy horse bandits crashed into the trap he set up. At this time, Li Fuda was quite content.
"I will give you another ten breaths. If you don't surrender after ten breaths, you won't be killed!" Li Fuda shouted in murderous aura.
Rumble...
As soon as Li Fuda finished speaking, a rumbling sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the southwest side. Then, a cavalry rang out from behind the horse slope. There were about a hundred people in this cavalry, all of which were covered with black trousers, with only a pair of intimidating eyes. Their right hands were all raised diagonally, and there was a sharp sword light on their hands. Even though they were still hundreds of meters away, the murderous aura had already swept with the strong wind!
"Three Lady?" The horse thieves exclaimed in dismay, and Li Mansha looked at the black-clad cavalry who was coming over in surprise.
Li Fuda's expression changed, and his eyes stared at the slender and agile figure in the front of the Black-clothed Horse Team. Although the other party was covered with his face, he still recognized it at a glance. When he was surrounded by Zhang Yin, he had fought with Xue Bingxin head-on when he was wearing the pseudonym Zhang Yin.
"It's a good time, and it happened to be resolved together." Li Fuda said in a cold voice.
In an instant, the black-clothed horse team had already reached the forefront, and Li Mansha took the opportunity to lead the horse thieves to break through.
"Looking for death!" Li Fuda shouted violently and led fifty personal soldiers to face the black-clad cavalry.
Bang bang bang bang...
Li Fuda's personal soldiers fired the musket, and several black cavalrymen were immediately shot and dropped. Fortunately, they used old-fashioned muskets, and they used extremely poorly on horseback, and they only had one chance to fire.
Boom...
The two cavalry collided violently, and flesh and blood flew everywhere in an instant!
Li Fuda drew his sword and held the knife that was slashed at the head with one hand. He stared at the light blue eyes above the other side's scarf with a playful look, stroked his beard with his left hand and said, "Mr. Xue's niece, I haven't had a long time left. I've been born with the same roots, so why are we too anxious to fight each other!"
"Bah, I have nothing to do with the White Lotus Sect!" Xue Bingxin scolded coldly.
Li Fuda shook his head and said, "Why is this? With your identity, you will not tolerate the Ming Dynasty. It is better to surrender to me. The country of Ming Dynasty will be divided into you in the future, which can be regarded as comforting your father, King Anhua, the spirit of the heavens."
"Shut up, I am not interested in being a traitor at all. As a Han Chinese, I am willing to be a Tartar dog, which is shameful!" Xue Bingxin shouted and waved her sword.
Li Fuda's eyes turned cold and said coldly: "Since you are seeking death, I will help you."
Dangdangdang...
Li Fuda made a sword and flew away. He immediately made several moves with Xue Bingxin. With a sound of squeak, the latter's cloak was cut off half by a sharp sword, and danger was everywhere.
"The boss, I'll help you, Li Fuda, do you still recognize me, Xue Liang? Come on!" Xue Liang, the fourth boss, rushed up. He had a grudge against Li Fuda.
What a Li Fuda, who was still at ease under the joint siege of Xue Bingxin and Xue Liang, and said with a grin, "Okay, I'll cook you all today."
"Dad, the person named Xue is going to catch the living. This bitch is Xu Jin's mistress. The child must use all means to humiliate her and avenge her second brother!" Li Dali said loudly.
Li Fuda's expression suddenly became ferocious when he heard this. His second son Li Dayi was his most valued son, but he was shot at the head at the Meridian Gate, and Xu Jin was the culprit!
Speaking of which, although Li Fuda was outside the Great Wall, he still had a way to obtain news about the capital of the Ming Dynasty. When he learned that his son was actually elected as the prince-consort, he was quite excited. He thought that his son would become a major insider in the future to attack the Ming Dynasty. As a result, this good thing was messed up by Xu Jin who was driven back from Japan. His son was shot at the head without even touching the princess's hand. It was so annoying, so hateful!
Li Fuda wished to crush Xu Jin's bones and ashes. At this time, after Li Dali reminded him, he remembered the relationship between Xue Bingxin and Dajin, and the deep hatred immediately surged into his heart.
