Liao Heng's move was very unexpected. No one expected that he would suddenly choose to surrender, including Liu Xiu.
Looking at Liao Heng who bowed his hands to him respectfully, Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Liao Heng, don't you think it's too late for you to surrender now?"
Liao Heng maintained the posture of saluting, raised his head, and said: "General Liu..."
Liu Xiu waved his hand to him and said sternly: "If you could say such a thing to me before injuring Liu Cheng, I would be very happy and would accept it gladly, but now it is too late for you to say such a thing again."
Liao Heng took two steps forward and said urgently: "General Liu, I have sincerely surrendered to you. There is absolutely no falsehood."
After a pause, he loudly said: "There are many adults. General Liu has lofty ambitions and is a man who does great things. Isn't there room for us?"
Liu Xiu shrugged and said meaningfully: "As the saying goes, there are different paths, and there is no mutual agreement. No matter whether my ambition is far or near, or whether the things I do in the future are big or small, I will never leave hidden dangers to myself.
around."
"General Liu, we are convinced. Can't General Liu let me live?" As he spoke, Liao Heng couldn't help but take a few steps forward. At this time, he was only three steps away from Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu was resolute and still shook his head. Liao Heng's choice to surrender now was completely out of desperation. If he let them go today, these people might turn around and stab him in the back tomorrow.
.
Liao Heng looked ugly, lowered his head and said, "General Liu really doesn't want to give us a way to survive?"
Liu Xiu laughed out loud and said, "It was you who blocked your own way of living regardless of the consequences, and now you blame me?"
Liao Heng nodded and said with a wry smile: "In that case... I will use you as a backing up first!" As he spoke, he suddenly jumped forward.
At this time, there were only three steps between him and Liu Xiu. Liao Heng arrived in front of Liu Xiu in one stride. At the same time, his hand stretched out from his wide cuff, and a bright dagger appeared in his hand, which he aimed directly at Liu Xiu.
Beautiful neck.
Liu Xiu was on guard for a long time. When Liao Heng approached him step by step, he was already alert. When he saw the opponent stabbing him with a knife, Liu Xiu swayed and moved half a meter away. Sand and the dagger were in the air.
His side was stabbed.
When the blow missed, Liao Heng roared angrily and kicked Liu Xiu's left ribs viciously. But as soon as his foot kicked out, there was a whooshing sound, and then, poof, a flying shot came towards him.
The arrow hit him in the thigh.
This arrow pierced his thigh and stomach. Liao Heng couldn't help but scream and leaned to the side, falling to the ground.
Liu Xiu turned around and glanced at him, flicked his sleeves, turned and walked towards his own camp, and said without looking back: "Kill! Leave no one behind!"
Following his order, the soldiers standing on the roof took the lead in attacking. People pulled the hanging knives, bang bang bang, and the sound of crossbows ejecting was heard.
After one round of arrow rain, a large number of Baisongmen disciples fell down. After the second round of arrow rain, of the more than fifty Baisongmen disciples, only a few were still standing.
Lu Ning, who had three crossbows stuck in his body, stood up from the ground with a roar. While swinging his sword to fire the crossbows, he rushed towards the soldiers on the side of the street. He also planned to break out by force, but how could he do it?
Under the arrows one after another, when Lu Ning rushed towards the military camp, he almost turned into a hedgehog. He couldn't count how many crossbow arrows were inserted all over his body, and he was dripping with blood, like a bloody man.
generally.
He raised his sword and wanted to slash forward. The soldiers on the opposite side shouted in unison: "Hoo——"
People carried spears and rushed forward. In just an instant, seven or eight spears stabbed Lu Ning's body at the same time.
Lü Ning could no longer hold on, and his body went limp, and he knelt down on the ground. The surrounding soldiers gathered around and stepped forward. They raised their spears and lowered them together. Puff, puff, puff. For a while, the sound of spears piercing the human body was endless.
In front of thousands of heavily armed soldiers, all martial arts sects and martial arts masters are useless and as fragile as grass.
The soldiers' arrow formation first killed the Baisongmen disciples to pieces, and then the infantry phalanx advanced, which was the harvest.
Seeing a disciple of the Baisong Sect who had not been killed by an arrow falling to the ground, groaning and struggling, people came closer, immediately added a spear and stabbed him to the ground.
Liao Heng, Lü Ning, together with more than a hundred disciples of the Baisong Sect, and Guo Deng who they wanted to rescue, none of them ran away, and they were all killed on the street in front of the beheading stage.
At this time, there was no more fighting, it was just a one-sided massacre.
Liu Xiu walked to the beheading stage and came to Xu Xiling. Although she covered her face with tulle, Liu Xiu could still see the tears shining in her eyes. Liu Xiu knew in her heart that the reason why Xu Xiling took refuge in the Zhu Tiandu Department was very important.
A big reason is for revenge.
He said: "Xiling, your junior sister's revenge has been avenged, and she has also helped us eliminate the Baisongmen's influence in Huyang. If you want to withdraw now, it's still too late, and I won't stop you."
Xu Xiling came back to her senses. She turned to look at Liu Xiu, shook her head and said, "My lord, Xi Ling will never go back on what she has decided."
As she spoke, she looked at the corpses scattered on the street and murmured: "It's just...it's just that Xi Ling feels a little sad in her heart."
Logically speaking, she should be happy that she finally avenged her junior sister who died in humiliation, but she was not. Instead, she felt more and more sad.
Liu Xiu sighed softly and said, "This man is gone. I express my condolences and accept the change." After saying this, he gently patted Xu Xiling's shoulder, turned around and walked off the beheading platform.
Feng Yi, Yao Qi, and Fu Jun quickly walked up to Liu Xiu, stepped in to salute, and said, "My lord!"
Liu Xiu nodded to the three of them and said, "Go to Liaofu immediately. If you encounter any resistance, we will kill you without mercy!"
He has both a gentle side and a decisive and cold side. Now that he has taken action, he must eradicate the roots of the Baisong Sect and completely eliminate the influence of the Baisong Sect from Huyang.
Just as Xu Xiling said, Baisongmen is good at the art of traps, and there are indeed many and various murder traps hidden in Liao Mansion.
It's just that now Liao Mansion has almost become an empty mansion. The few remaining disciples of Baisong Clan and their families gave up their resistance one after another after learning that Liao Heng was killed and a large army of soldiers surrounded Liao Mansion.
, all surrendered to the Chung Ling Army, and the institutions in Liaofu were self-defeating.
As for Guan Ying and others who were chased by Ma Wu and Gai Yan, not many of them escaped. All of them, including Guan Ying, died fighting hard.
In the matter of annihilating the Baisong Gate, the Chung Ling Army showed a resolute and fierce side, and wiped them all out with lightning speed.
It was precisely because of this incident that the Chung Ling Army's prestige in the hearts of the people in Huyang became even higher.
A few days after the situation in Huyang stabilized, the families of Chung Ling Army began to move from Caiyang to Huyang.
In order to ensure the safety of his family, the Chung Ling Army was accustomed to bringing their family members with them during battles. This time Liu Yan moved his family members to Huyang to express to the entire army his determination to capture Xinye.
Liu Yan and part of the Chung Ling Army did not come to Huyang with their families. First, there were still some military affairs to be handled in Caiyang, and second, Liu Yan had to send troops to attack Shandu County.
The Shandu County captain and the county soldiers have been annihilated by Liu Xiu in Chaoyang. Shandu County is now defenseless. Capturing Shandu County is a matter of course. Therefore, no matter who is sent to go, it is equivalent to giving him a free gift. A great achievement.
Liu Yansi thought about it and decided to send his brother-in-law Deng Chen there. As the saying goes, good news should not go to outsiders. Of course, Liu Yan would leave such a good job to his own family.
There are many family members of the Chung Ling Army, men and women, old and young, thousands of them. With so many people arriving in Huyang, just arranging accommodation is not an easy task.
After receiving the news, Liu Xiu had already started preparations in Huyang before his family members had even set off from Caiyang.
The current situation is in chaos, and many families in the city have fled, leaving many houses vacant. In addition, in order to please the Chung Ling Army, some wealthy noble families in Huyang heard that the Chung Ling Army needed to borrow houses, and expressed their willingness to provide them.
Due to the good preliminary work and the good cooperation of the nobles in Huyang, there was no chaos after thousands of family members arrived in Huyang, and Liu Xiu and others settled them down one by one in an orderly manner.
Close relatives such as the elder sister-in-law, second elder sister, younger sister, nephews, nieces, nephews, and nieces were directly placed in the county government office by Liu Xiu.
That night, Liu Xiu also held a family dinner. In addition to close relatives, the attendees were Deng Yu, Ma Wu, Yao Qi, Feng Yi, Zhu You, Gai Yan, Fu Jun and other close relatives.
It was a rare opportunity to sit and have a meal with his family. Liu Xiu was also very happy. He drank happily with everyone and hugged everyone, but he only hugged the children of his eldest sister-in-law and second sister's family.
On weekdays, Liu Xiu was not as serious as Liu Yan, but Deng Chen was always cheerful and laughing. He was very popular with the children. The children of his eldest brother and second sister were also willing to pester him and play with him.
When they were almost done eating, the children couldn't sit still anymore. One ran east and the other ran west, running around the room. Liu Boji took the initiative to take the children to play in the courtyard outside. Seeing this, Li Tong asked Liu Xiu I made an excuse and followed him out.
When the babies all left, Liu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and felt a lot quieter. In just this moment, he was sweating all over because of the babies.
He picked up the wine glass and said cheerfully: "Sister-in-law, second sister, you have come a long way and it has been a hard journey."
As he spoke, he drank the wine in one gulp.
Deng Yu and others also picked up their wine glasses and said in unison: "To Mrs. Liu, to Mrs. Deng."
Sister-in-law Huang said with a smile on her face: "My third brother is so polite!" After speaking, she said to everyone: "Fighting abroad is hard and dangerous. I hope you brothers can help my third brother more in the future!"
"Mrs. Liu's words are serious. It is our duty to serve the Lord." Everyone said in unison.
The second sister Liu Yuan took a sip of wine, put down the glass, and asked: "Axiu, the war in Xinye is not going well, isn't it?"
Liu Xiu did not hide anything. He nodded slightly and said, "We encountered some difficulties. Xinye is an important town in Nanyang, with many defenders and high walls. The city is strong and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Brother Ji and Yuanzhi's task is not easy."
Liu Ji and Deng Feng were both powerful generals with outstanding military strength. Both of them were eager to make meritorious deeds, but they failed to conquer Xinye for such a long time. It is not difficult to imagine how difficult Xinye City was to conquer.
Liu Yuan said worriedly: "What if we can't defeat Xinye?"
