The Song Dynasty on the Sand Table

Chapter 47 I'd Rather Be Beaten

Zhang Dashu gained a great advantage with just one move, and the opponent became panicked.

How could Zhang Dalang miss such a good opportunity? He swung the spear in his hand and stabbed it into the waist of a minion with a "puff".

The opponent's spear stabbed back, but was blocked by the long-card player.

The outcome was revealed in just one round of confrontation.

Next, the Mandarin Duck Formation was fully operational, forcing the enemy to retreat step by step, and they couldn't even touch a hair on our side.

The black-legged tiger howled, "Brothers, come on," but it was of no use.

Cui Weihua couldn't help but sigh, "County Magistrate Wu, you're right. Black-footed Tiger is doomed to lose."

Wu Jialiang's face did not show any smugness, but rather a solemn expression. He could see that the people of King Gong had really practiced in battle formations and attacks, and their skills far surpassed those of ordinary bandits and bullies.

More difficult to deal with than the thirty-six Tiangang Stars under Song Jiang.

He himself is one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars and knows this matter very well.

With such a big bandit under his jurisdiction, how can he, as a county lieutenant, carry out his work of maintaining public security in the future?
Wu Jialiang turned to the guide and asked, "Who is this Gong Dawang?"

The guide said, "King Gong's name is Gong Yi. It's said he was originally a brave imperial guard near Tongzhou. After the two emperors were hunted north, King Gong came from Tongzhou to Laizhou, gathered an army, and defended Jimo County against the Jin bandits... But the Jin bandits were too powerful, Jimo City was captured, and King Gong was killed."

Wu Jialiang: "Then now..."

The guide whispered, "Prince Gong's second daughter, Madam Gong Er, is still alive."

Wu Jialiang understood now and frowned even deeper. No wonder this bandit army knew how to fight and attack. It turned out that they were trained by former imperial guards. However... Song Jiang and his gang had also fought with the imperial guards before, and Wu Jialiang had also seen quite a few of them.

The fighting power of the Imperial Guards is simply unbearable to watch.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals were able to defeat thousands of Imperial Guards and make them throw away their armor and weapons and run around like rats. That was because they had never seen the Imperial Guards use such a formation. If the Imperial Guards had used such a formation at that time, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals might have been defeated.

Wu Jialiang was in a heavy mood and felt that being a county lieutenant was not easy.

"Hey!"

Suddenly, there was a roar in the distance. Zhang Dashu's wolf whisk swept across the black-footed tiger's face. The black-footed tiger jumped back and touched his face. It was covered with blood. He didn't know how many cuts the wolf whisk had made on his face. He was so angry that he roared loudly, but he only roared with his mouth. His feet did not move and he stopped rushing forward.

No matter how stupid he is, he can see that he can't win!

The thought of escaping came into his mind. He looked left and right, marked a retreat route for himself, and did not order a retreat. He let his subordinates hold back the rebels while he slowly slid down the hillside alone.

But Yue Wenxuan was keeping an eye on him, so how could he let him get away? He said to Hou Yi beside him, "Kill that guy and bring his body out to intimidate his subordinates."

Hou Yi chuckled: "★▼▲◆□"

After saying that, he rushed out with a whoosh. His figure was as fast as lightning, like a wild beast, running through the woods and grass, as if flying close to the ground in the forest.

When he jumped... Cui Weihua and his group on the hillside saw him.

Several officials couldn't help but lock their eyes on him, exclaiming, "What a brave warrior from the foreign tribe!"

Cui Weihua: "I heard that in the southern part of Jiazhou Road and Zizhou Road (today's Sichuan and southern Chongqing, and parts of Yunnan and Guizhou), there were many tribes, many of them warriors, who could run swiftly through the forests and capture lions and tigers. This must be one of them, but how could such a person come to Shandong?"

Wu Jialiang: "The black-footed tiger is dying."

The black-legged tiger had already escaped to the edge of the hillside. Thinking that no one noticed him, he was secretly delighted and dived into the woods. He crouched down and started running wildly, but he didn't know that a group of officials on the hillside were watching him, Yue Wenxuan was also watching him, and there was a pair of cheetah-like eyes in the jungle, also staring at him.

Thinking he had escaped successfully, he crawled through a ditch and hid behind a big tree. He laughed, "A bunch of idiots..." "Bang!"

A fist as big as a bowl hit him in the face.

Hou Yi appeared without warning. The black-legged tiger didn't even hear the slightest rustle of a blade of grass. How could such a large man suddenly appear before him? Where had he been hiding just now?
With just one punch, he was hit so hard that he saw stars and his eyes were full of spinning little chickens.

The black-legged tiger quickly begged for mercy: "Please spare my life, my dear, I was wrong... We can talk..."

"boom!"

Another punch, and Hou Yi also added a heartfelt word to him when he punched: "★▼▲◆□"

The black-footed tiger's front teeth were knocked out, and he roared while chewing blood in his mouth: "Good man, I don't understand what you are saying."

Hou Yi said with a serious face: "★▼▲◆□"

Black-legged Tiger: "I want to talk to your leader."

Hou Yi raised his fist as big as an alms bowl again, “Bang!”

This punch was fatal. The black-legged tiger's cervical vertebrae were dislocated and tilted to one side with a snap.

Hou Yi jumped out of the woods carrying his body and laughed at the two fighting parties: "★▼▲◆□"

Black-footed Tiger's subordinates couldn't understand, they couldn't understand at all, but Black-footed Tiger's body with a broken neck could understand, and they collapsed instantly and fled in all directions.

Yue Wenxuan ordered: "Catch them alive! Try to catch them alive."

When it comes to capturing people, Houyi instantly becomes energetic. It's about capturing slaves. Slaves are private property. The more you capture, the richer your family will be.

He quickly caught up with a thug, knocked him down with a punch, and tied him up with a straw rope.

He jumped up again and caught up with another thug, kicked him down and tied him up.

The enthusiasm for doing this is higher than killing people, and happiness is written all over the face: "★▼▲◆□"

Yue Wenxuan said to the four mounted scouts beside him, "Charge forward and shout, 'Kneel down and surrender! We have food.'"

The four scouts nodded and quickly rushed out on their horses. They did not engage in battle, but instead, relying on their horses' speed, they rushed to both sides of the battlefield, shouting as they galloped, "Kneel down and surrender, and you will be spared. We have food."

Such shouts were indeed effective. Black-footed Tiger's subordinates had already lost their leader, and now they heard that they would be spared from death if they surrendered, and they would also have food to eat. So there was no reason for them to hold on. They were all thieves anyway, so where could they go?

The remaining fifty or so people did not run away. They dropped their weapons and knelt down obediently, fearing that they would be killed for being disrespectful. Their kneeling movements were very standard, and many people even knocked their foreheads to the ground.

Zhang Dashu walked past them, shaking his head as he walked. "What a shame! How come all these people surrendered? It would be great if someone resisted. Killing them would be worth 30 taels."

The surrendered soldiers trembled at these words, thinking: "This guy is really hoping for us to resist?" The more he said this, the more we must not resist.

Zhang Wazi smiled and pulled Zhang Dashu's arm. "Brother Dashu, don't think like that. There's a rule in the military regulations that disobeying orders will result in beheading. The True Lord has already ordered them to be captured alive. If you still want to kill them for the bounty, that's a violation of military regulations. Not only will you not get the bounty, you'll also lose your head."

Zhang Dashu: "Oh! Fortunately you reminded me. Boy, you have to remind me often in the future. I'm stupid and always break military rules. Now I've been given more than a hundred military sticks. If I keep breaking the rules, I'll lose my head one day."

Zhang Wazi: "How about you discuss it with General Qi Tian and use the reward money to pay for the military stick?"

Zhang Dashu: "Oh? That won't do! I'd rather get beaten."

Zhang Wazi: “…”
