"The Liangshan people are here!"

"Run! Run!"

"Why are you running! Lie down! Lie down now!"

……

Upon seeing the Liangshan bandits rushing out from the hillside, the soldiers of Dongping Prefecture immediately began to riot.

It wasn't that they didn't want to resist, but rather that their resistance seemed so powerless in the face of the Liangshan army.

When Mi Sheng and Shan Shiqi charged down, they were like two fierce tigers, and the soldiers behind them roared as they charged. The moment the two armies clashed, many of the soldiers from Dongping Prefecture were knocked away.

Cheng Wanli's face immediately turned ugly. Wang Bing had just gone to chase after the general, and at this moment there were only some deputy generals in Dongping Prefecture. Facing the fierce soldiers of Liangshan, those deputy generals would have a hard time resisting!

"Protect the prefect! Protect the prefect!"

When the lieutenants saw the Liangshan soldiers attacking from both sides, their first reaction was to protect Cheng Wanli.

But they didn't expect that Liangshan's target was Cheng Wanli!

"Hmph! Prefect Cheng! You've come to Liangshan and think you can leave without doing anything?"

Another loud shout came from the hillside, and Ren Yuan himself jumped out from his hiding place, brandishing his three-pointed double-edged sword!

"Oh no! A three-pointed double-edged sword! That's Ren Yuan, the leader of Liangshan!"

The Dongping Prefecture soldiers who recognized Ren Yuan's signature weapon immediately panicked.

The leader of Liangshan has come in person? Then our prefect is in serious trouble this time!

"Prefect! Let's go!"

A lieutenant said to Cheng Wanli.

"What's the panic? I am the Prefect of Dongping Prefecture! How can I leave because of a little danger?"

"I can't leave! What will happen to the team if I leave?"

Although Cheng Wanli could sense that the situation was quite dangerous, he was the commander-in-chief of the Dongping Prefecture army. If he left now, what would happen to the more than 10,000 people around him?

"Prefect! Let's go! Look at those guys, do they look like something's wrong? It's better if you leave!"

At this moment, a deputy general surnamed Li rushed over, grabbed Cheng Wanli's warhorse, and not only shouted to Prefect Cheng, but also pointed out the situation of the other soldiers.

Cheng Wanli followed Li Fujiang's finger and saw that many soldiers fell to the ground the moment they came into contact with the Liangshan troops!

That's right, he just collapsed to the ground! Without even acting it out!

Moreover, after falling to the ground, they would "coincidentally" throw their weapons away!

The Liangshan soldiers who rushed over afterward only needed to completely separate these soldiers and their weapons.

"Drop your weapons! Lie down! Lie down! Yes, just lie down!"

"Throw down if you're not lying down properly! Drop your weapons!"

……

What's going on with them?

Seeing the performance of his soldiers, Cheng Wanli almost spat out a mouthful of blood!

What are you doing!

You are soldiers of the imperial court, how could you do this? Where is your backbone?

"Prefect! Those men are all seasoned veterans. What kind of courage do you expect them to show?"

Lieutenant Li was both amused and exasperated. The governor expected these men to show any courage? Dream on!

At this moment, Ren Yuan also rushed over, his three-pointed double-edged sword moving with lightning speed, cutting all those who were still oblivious and wanted to stop him in two!

Although he wasn't riding a horse, his ferocity far surpassed that of ordinary people! Soon, Ren Yuan was approaching Cheng Wanli's location!

"Prefect, let's go quickly!"

Lieutenant Li spurred Cheng Wanli's warhorse hard, then turned to face Ren Yuan!

"Vice General Li!"

Cheng Wanli was forced to leave, but he turned back with a worried look and shouted to his deputy.

"Prefect! Let's go! I'll risk my life to save you!"

Lieutenant General Li spoke with great righteousness, and in the current situation, his words were very moving!

Okay! Take care!

Cheng Wanli had tears in his eyes, but in order not to disappoint Vice General Li's kindness, he immediately turned around and spurred his horse to gallop away!

"You want to stop me?"

Ren Yuan rushed over at this moment and just happened to see Vice General Li, who had seen Cheng Wanli off!

Ren Yuan looked at Vice General Li and nodded slightly.

A good deputy general is one who can send the main general away first amidst the chaos of battle and then stay behind to cover the rear.

"Chief Ren! Although your Liangshan name is famous throughout the land, I am, after all, a government soldier..."

Lieutenant Li looked at Ren Yuan and gripped the knife in his hand tightly.

"Good, you're not bad, take this!"

Ren Yuan thought to himself, "This lieutenant is a good candidate. He not only cares about the life of his commander, but also has a strong sense of professionalism. To show my respect, I will give you my all!"

The three-pointed dagger drew a crescent-shaped arc in the air, its bright blade flashing as it hurtled straight at Lieutenant General Li!

Ren Yuan had anticipated that Lieutenant General Li would draw his sword and fight against him!

However, Lieutenant General Li's next move almost caused Ren Yuan to strain his back!

"Chief Ren, show mercy! I'm willing to surrender!"

Upon seeing Ren Yuan brandish the three-pointed sword, Lieutenant General Li stopped talking, threw down the sword, knelt down, and surrendered quickly!

"boom!"

The surrender was made too quickly. It was only because Ren Yuan was highly skilled in martial arts that he was able to sheathe his sword and change direction in time, which allowed the three-pointed sword to just barely land next to Lieutenant General Li!

"What did you say?"

Ren Yuan's knife missed its mark, and he looked on incredulously.

You, Lieutenant General Li, where is your righteous indignation from just now? Where is your vow to never surrender? Where is your selflessness in sending the commander away? ...

Oh!

Understood.

Ren Yuan suddenly realized, "So all that was you doing in front of Cheng Wanli just now?"

"So you were just putting on an act for Cheng Wanli to see?"

“Chief Ren, we are just ordinary people. Sometimes, if we want to live a good life, we have to do some bad things.”

Lieutenant Li knelt on the ground, his face full of sincerity.

“I am indeed loyal to the governor, so I must save his life, which is why I let him go.”

“But the governor isn’t here now, so I need to protect myself, which is why I did this.”

"Chief Ren is a peerless hero, he certainly won't make things difficult for me, right?"

Ren Yuan looked at Deputy General Li and shook his head helplessly.

“You are indeed a smart man. As Liangshan just said, we will not kill those who have surrendered. Go back to the prisoners’ side.”

"Okay!"

Lieutenant Li was very happy and took the initiative to run towards the group of prisoners who were already squatting down.

"Deputy General Li? Didn't you just escort the prefect away? Why have you surrendered too?"

Someone in the pile of prisoners recognized Lieutenant General Li and quickly asked him.

"So what if we surrender? Can't you see the situation? The imperial army is in grave danger, and Privy Councilor Tong has most likely surrendered as well!"

"If Privy Councilor Tong has done it, why can't I surrender?"

Lieutenant Li spoke with great conviction, making his points seem very reasonable!

"Besides, the prefect has already left safely, so I haven't let him down..."

Before Lieutenant General Li could finish speaking, a soldier next to him patted him on the shoulder.

"Deputy General Li, why don't you turn around and take a look..."

Lieutenant General Li was taken aback and quickly turned around.

As a result, he saw something very familiar: his own governor's warhorse.

And it's not just horses!

Immediately, his own prefect was bound horizontally and placed on top, while a burly man dressed entirely in black, holding a large axe, was grinning widely on horseback.

"Brother! Look who I caught!"
