"Dare you still dare to chase after me?" As soon as he ran out for four or five miles, Zhao Dahu suddenly heard a shout behind him. He immediately turned his head to look and saw a lot of fire flashing in the darkness in the distance.

"Brother, leave quickly, we will cut off the rear." A personal soldier stopped the trail. The general was named Xu Lang, who was originally a subordinate of Zhao Dahu when he was a robber. He was extremely loyal, so he promoted the other party as the leader of the personal soldier. Xu Lang did not disappoint himself and stood up at the critical moment.

In the melee, Zhao Dahu was shot to death by arrows under his crotch, and now he can only run on foot like other soldiers. If this continues, he will sooner or later be caught up by the officers and soldiers because of exhaustion.

"Okay," he hesitated and nodded in agreement, slapped heavily on the other party's shoulder: "Repel the pursuers, don't fight, follow up immediately."

"Yes, come with me if you are not afraid of death," Xu Lang said to the soldiers next to him with a spear in his hand.

As the words came to the ground, twenty or thirty people stood up. As for the other soldiers, they came into contact with Xu Lang's gaze, they subconsciously turned their heads. They rushed out of the siege of officers and soldiers for a lifetime, and now reason has reoccupied their brains, and no one is willing to continue to die.

After 20 or 30 subordinates were assigned to stop him, Zhao Dahu led the remaining soldiers to leave the official road and turned into a dirt road, running towards the darkness with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

"Hurry up, hide in the ditch on the side of the road," Xu Lang, who was broken, was not a brainless person. After seeing Zhao Dahu off, he glanced around a few times and pointed to a depression.

After receiving the order, twenty or thirty people possessed themselves in the ditch.

This area is several feet in a radius, with lush wormwood, more than half a person deep, so hiding twenty or thirty people is not difficult.

After his subordinates were hiding, Xu Lang pulled out the bow and arrow from his waist and aimed at the end of the road. The officers and soldiers were already very close. Through the light of torches in the distance, he could see nearly a hundred figures running towards him quickly.

Thirty feet, twenty feet... Xu Lang began to point his bow at the black-faced man in front. Seeing the other person's clothes, he was obviously the leader of this group of people. As long as he shot this person, the officers and soldiers would have no leader, and he would definitely not dare to chase him.

His archery skills are good. If he is twenty feet apart during the day, nine out of ten shots will be hit. He is just in the dark, his vision will be greatly affected.

I felt that I was not sure, so Xu Lang did not shoot the arrow immediately, intending to wait a few feet closer.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly raised his arms without warning, and the officers and soldiers behind him immediately stopped.

"Zhu Yingzheng, what's wrong?" someone asked.

Zhu Yuanhao looked into the distance intently. The night ahead was dim and there was no movement, but he felt that there was some danger. Not far away, there seemed to be a beast hiding.

"Did you find it?" Seeing the other party's actions, Xu Lang stopped hesitating. He loosened his fingers and the sharp arrow had penetrated the darkness and shot towards the sergeant leader.

"Be careful" When Zhu Yuanhao heard the sound of bowstrings, his face changed drastically, and he suddenly pulled the sergeant standing beside him.

"Puff" The feather arrow shot three feet away from his side, and the shaft still trembled, scaring the soldier's heart to his mind. If the camp was moving a little slower just now, he would have become a ghost under the arrow.

"There is an ambush, everyone, be careful," Zhu Yuanhao had already reacted and hurriedly squatted down to the sergeant behind him and said, "Take the oil cloth and shoot the arrow."

"Yes..." Many people in the team immediately took down their bows and arrows, wrapped the oil cloth around the arrow, then lit it at the torch, and shot towards the dead grass in the distance.

Watching the rocket attacking the hiding place, Xu Lang hurriedly jumped up and shouted: "Hurry, go out quickly."

The sound has not yet reached the ground, and the rocket has drilled into the artemisia. After the artemisia withered in autumn, it has been exposed to the sun for such a long time and is very easy to ignite. Now, when it comes to a strip of cloth dipped in tinder oil, it burns in an instant.

Almost in the blink of an eye, a strong fire light soared into the sky, and the soldiers in the smoke screamed and jumped into the fire light. Many of them were even confused by the smoke, and they were in a panic and jumped into the ditch not far away.

With the fire, seeing that there were only twenty or thirty sneak attackers, Zhu Yuanhao immediately said to his subordinates: "Kill"

Then he rushed out first, twenty feet away, but within a few breaths, the two sides had already fought each other. Zhu Yuanhao directly faced Xu Lang, and the remaining soldiers also found their own targets.

It should be said that Xu Lang has a strong martial arts value, but he was not good enough to face Zhu Yuanhao. In just a few rounds, Zhu Yuanhao cut off his arm with a knife.

Xu Lang endured the severe pain and rolled around. Just as he was about to stand up from the ground, his sword was already crossing his neck.

"You are not Zhao Dahu, tell me quickly, where did he escape?" Zhu Yuanhao said coldly. Although he did not know Zhao Dahu, he had also heard of the other party's reputation. The thieves in front of him were too poor, so they were definitely not Zhao Dahu.

"Bah, the general has already gone far away, you can't catch up. I won't say that, you have the ability to kill me," Xu Lang spat and said.

"It's stubborn," Zhu Yuanhao did not intend to let the other party go, and he raised his hand and fell to his death.

The official army had an advantage in terms of numbers. In a moment, the thieves who were resisting on the field had been killed, and only a few prisoners were left kneeling on the ground and trembling.

"Tell me quickly, where did Zhao Dahu escape? Say it out and save your life." Zhu Yuanhao walked up to a prisoner with a bloody big knife and asked.

This man was not as tough as Xu Lang. Under the pressure of Zhu Yuanhao's murderous aura, he couldn't help but beg for mercy and said, "Don't kill me, don't kill me, the general has fled to where."

These prisoners were all small people, and Zhu Yuanhao had no intention of taking credit for his head. After knowing where Zhao Dahu was going, he threw several people behind him.

Through the fire, they could clearly see the messy traces of being trampled on the path next to them, so everyone rushed to chase after him.

Knowing that there were pursuers behind him, Zhao Dahu did not dare to stop and rest when he ran away, but ran all the way.

Before we knew it, the east was already brighter. When we heard the sound of running water in front of us, the faces of the bandits changed.

In a hurry, they panicked and actually ran to the side of the Dushui River. The river was hundreds of feet wide and there were no ships nearby. Although they were slightly water-friendly, they could not escape by evacuation.

"Haha, it turns out that God helped me. These thieves actually fled to death." When they saw the wide river ahead, Zhu Yuanhao shouted excitedly, "My sons, please surround them, don't let anyone go."

"Kill these officers and soldiers" behind him was the surging water, and Zhao Dahu knew that there was nowhere to escape. In this situation, the fierce and fierce aura in his heart spread again.

After being stimulated, the bandits behind him also subconsciously held the sword tightly. For a moment, the luck of the entire army was reunited, but compared with the previous one, it declined several times.

On the other hand, the officers and soldiers not only have the advantage in numbers, but also have the advantage of their own side, so they have more luck and are almost rushing into the sky.

The fight was extremely tragic at the beginning. Zhu Yuanhao faced Zhao Dahu, while the remaining officers and soldiers surrounded the last forty or fifty thieves.

Knock... The two long swords collided one after another, making a harsh roar, and Mars emerged. Zhao Dahu fought back and forth, and naturally put life and death aside. The long sword was swung out, and the moves were extremely ruthless, and he was completely fighting for his life with his life.

Zhu Yuanhao was not in a hurry and often took gestures. He knew his advantage. As long as he trapped this person and waited for his subordinates to kill all the thieves, he would definitely be able to capture Zhao Dahu.

Zhao Dahu obviously understood the situation now. He glanced at his subordinates being killed by officers and soldiers, and became more and more crazy, like a trapped beast, roaring unwillingly.

However, just after a glance, his feet slowed down a little, and he happened to step on a corpse. Zhao Dahu staggered and hurriedly stood firm.

"Die for me." Seeing that the other party showed a flaw, Zhu Yuanhao hurriedly cut down with a knife and slashed the other party's body in half.

The "General" was paying attention to the situation here and saw that Zhao Dahu was killed, and immediately screamed.

"Zhao Dahu is dead, you won't surrender yet." Zhu Yuanhao quickly stepped forward and cut off the other party's head, lifted it in his hand and shouted. It has to be said that this action is very intimidating. Seeing this, the remaining bandits threw down their weapons and begged for mercy.

It was dawn at this moment. After a night of fighting, the remaining bandits in the county town had been killed. The fire in the county government office had also been put out, and the inside and outside of the courtyard were occupied by officers and soldiers.

At this moment, in the lobby, Liu Hong, the general, sat upright at the top. There was a person kneeling in the hall. It was Wu Lianshan, the guard general who let Zhao Dahu go last night.

Liu Hong stared at Wu Lianshan and said angrily: "General Wu Wei, do you have anything to say? Yesterday, the handsome Japanese commanded repeatedly and never let the thief run away. As a result, you were so happy that hundreds of people under him took the city gate, but Zhao Dahu ran away. How do you think the handsome Japanese commander should punish you?"

"The Dushou, I don't blame the general for this matter. Last night, the general led his troops to break through the west gate, and then led his troops to chase the bandits in the direction of the county government. He did not know what happened at the city gate. Moreover, when the general was about to leave, he met Zhu Yingzheng and ordered him to guard the city gate strictly and not allow any thieves to escape." Wu Lianshan raised his head and said nothing.

"No, you think you are the most handsome and blind man. Last night, Zhu Ying was the first to attack the city. It was him who led his men to break the city gate first. Moreover, Zhu Ying was at the south gate, how could he run to the west gate?" Liu Hong also had some impression of Zhu Yuanhao and loved his bravery. At this moment, he heard that Wu Lianshan was ruling the responsibility and couldn't help but say angrily.

"Du Shuai, what the last general said is true. The young man has indeed given orders to Zhu Yingzheng. If Du Shuai doesn't believe it, he can ask Zhu Yingzheng for questioning." Wu Lianshan said with a word. He did this, naturally ordered his subordinates to inquire in advance. Zhu Yuanhao went out of the city to pursue Zhao Dahu last night and did not return overnight. It was obviously a bad luck.

Since this is the case, you can put all the blame on the other party. Anyway, this person is dead and there is no evidence.

"Where is Zhu Yuanhao, let him see me immediately." Liu Hong turned his head and ordered the soldiers.

"Yes," the personal soldiers responded and went out.

Not long after, he returned again and said, "Biography Zhu Ying was out of the city last night to pursue the enemy and did not return overnight."

Wu Lianshan refused to admit that he let Zhao Dahu go. Another person involved has not come back now, so Liu Hong had to wave his hand to let the other party get up: "Get up, when Zhu Ying is returning, you two will confront each other again."

"The last general obeys the order." Wu Lianshan felt much more relaxed when he stood up, knowing that this serious crime had passed.

But before he could return to his seat, another personal soldier suddenly entered the hall and said excitedly: "DuShip, Zhu Ying is coming back to kill the thief, and he also brought back the head of the thief Zhao Dahu.

"What, where is he?" Liu Hong was excited and stood up from his seat. As for the few guards under him, his face was also filled with surprise.

"Just wait outside the county government office"

"So quickly and call him to come and see me." Liu Hong ordered urgently, and after saying that, he stared at Wu Lianshan.
