Chapter 260: Destroying the White Tiger Village and Wing Gate
Xiao Jingxuan led his troops to the mountains to catch bandits. Those who accompanied him included Magistrate Li and the generals of two battalions.
Prefect Li actually didn't want to go. There were many bandits near Shuicheng, and the White Tiger Village was the most rampant. The previous prefect had thought about sending troops to suppress the bandits, but the mountains were full of traps and the soldiers sent suffered heavy casualties. After that, he had to give up.
Now that King Pingshan is going to lead his troops there in person, he has no choice but to go.
This is the emperor's most beloved prince!
If he didn't do as he was told, and someone said a few words to the emperor, his position as prefect would be over, and he might even lose his head. After all, the White Tiger Village was under his jurisdiction and was an accomplice to the evil, having kidnapped the third master of the Qiao family.
As soon as the army arrived near the forest, Baihu Village received the news and wanted to discuss escape with the people from Yimen.
The people from Yimen had no intention of escaping.
"Why are you running? This forest is full of traps. Those soldiers who come in will die. There is no place safer than here." The person who spoke was the Sixth Elder of the Wing Gate.
There were six elders in Yimen, and now he is the only one left. Beside him are two hall masters and more than twenty death warriors.
Since the old sect leader is not here, the Sixth Elder is the person in charge.
The Sixth Elder gave the order: "No one is allowed to escape. If anyone from the government dares to come in, they will be killed without mercy."
Outside the forest, Xiao Jingxuan found a deserted place, changed into Li Dian's clothes, put on a mask and appeared in front of the army.
"The prince ordered me to lead the way for the generals." As Xiao Jingxuan spoke, two parrots flew over and landed on his shoulders, one on the left and one on the right.
Governor Li wiped his cold sweat. Others didn't know, but he knew that Li Dian was the King of Pingshan. The King of Pingshan wanted to perform, and he couldn't ruin his interest.
The two generals leading the troops were General Liu from the Beacon Camp and General Zhao from the Fengchi Camp.
The two had heard about Li Dian's story and knew that he was very familiar with the routes in the mountains and forests, so they were very kind at the moment.
"Then I'll have to trouble Guard Li to lead the way!"
Xiao Jingxuan nodded and took the two parrots into the forest. The two generals followed with their troops.
Because of what happened that night, the traps in the forest were modified a little, but generally speaking there were not many changes. In addition, Xiao Jingxuan knew a lot about the traps, so this change was not difficult for him.
Xiao Jingxuan led his troops to bypass the deadly traps unhindered and gradually went deeper into the mountains and forests.
During this period, they encountered many ambushes, but they were all resolved under the leadership of Xiao Jingxuan.
In less than half a day, Xiao Jingxuan and his army fought their way to the White Tiger Village, killing the bandits and making them scream in pain, and captured Boss Huang alive.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the people from Yimen wanted to retreat, but their retreat was blocked.
The Sixth Elder was desperate: "Where is the Sect Master? Where did the Sect Master go?"
The Yimen sect is facing a life-and-death moment, so why doesn't the sect leader come out?
Since that night, he has never seen the sect leader again.
Yimen was the most important force of Beiyi Kingdom in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was impossible for the leader to give up Yimen.
"Could something have happened to the sect leader?" a hall master made a bold guess.
At this time, Xiao Jingxuan led his men to rush over and surrounded the Sixth Elder and his men.
The Sixth Elder looked at Jamel Xiao with cold eyes: "Who are you?"
Jamel Xiao found it funny: "You people from Yimen have been chasing me for a whole night, and now you're asking me who I am? You're chasing me without even knowing me, you're so funny."
The Sixth Elder's eyes widened: "You are the thief that night."
"Isn't it obvious? Hurry up and surrender. I will take you to see your sect leader."
The Sixth Elder was shocked: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Jingxuan sneered and said, "Why do you think your Yimen was defeated so thoroughly? Of course it's because your leader is in my hands!"
"Impossible!!!" The Sixth Elder and his companions felt devastated upon hearing this.
Xiao Jingxuan raised his hand, and the two generals immediately led their troops to encircle and suppress the six elders and their men.
The martial arts of the Sixth Elder and his companions are very powerful, but they are still not enough when facing the army.
Wow!
A large net dropped from the sky and trapped the Sixth Elder and several others.
The two generals rushed forward with guns, seriously wounded the sixth elder, and stabbed the rest to death.
Without the Sixth Elder, the leader, Yimen and Baihu Village became a mess, and only those death warriors could contend with them.
These twenty-odd assassins are not numerous, but their lethality is extremely great.
While fighting with these assassins, Xiao Jingxuan discovered that the aura on these assassins was the same as that of the assassins who sneaked into the palace to assassinate on New Year's Day.
Not only these assassins, but also the ghost-faced assassins who chased him that night, and the assassins around Shao Huan, are all very similar to the assassins on the first day of the new year.
The bandit suppression campaign lasted a whole day before the battle ended.
While cleaning up the battlefield, Xiao Jingxuan changed back into Prince Pingshan's clothes. A soldier came to report that Princess Pingshan had arrived.
"My wife is awake?" Xiao Jingxuan was a little excited and took people to greet Ye Tang.
After taking only a few steps, he saw Ye Tang, Tan Yun and Yun Zhen striding towards him. Black Panther Xiao Qi followed Ye Tang majestically, holding his head high and looking particularly impressive.
"My wife." Xiao Jingxuan ran over and hugged Ye Tang in his arms: "You slept for too long. How are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
Ye Tang shook his head and smiled: "I'm not feeling uncomfortable anywhere. I'll be back to normal after I wake up."
"Are you done here?" Ye Tang glanced around.
Some of the people from Yimen and Baihuzhai were killed, and some were injured.
"It's over." Xiao Jingxuan said, "I also found a small warehouse and cleared out a lot of property and food."
He took out two letters and said, "This is the evidence of the Qiao family and Gao Yi's collusion with Yimen."
Ye Tang took it and took a look: "Husband, it's time for us to return to Beijing."
These things are enough to convict the Qiao and Gao families.
The truth about the death of old King Pingshan and Princess Zhaoyang should be made public.
Prefect Li and the two generals dealt with the aftermath, while Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan returned to the government office first.
Seeing that the two important figures finally left, Governor Li breathed a sigh of relief. Generals Liu and Zhao looked at the direction where Xiao Jingxuan and his companions left and couldn't help but start talking.
"I didn't expect that although the King of Pingshan looked weak, he was actually quite courageous. He said he would suppress the bandits and he personally led the charge. The guard Li beside him was also extremely powerful."
"And Princess Pingshan, she seems to be very brave. She was not afraid at all when she saw so many corpses in the forest. If it were those delicate and frivolous young ladies, they would have been scared out of their wits."
General Zhao said: "One of them is the son of the old King Pingshan, and the other is the granddaughter of the Duke of Huguo. How can others compare to them?"
General Liu sighed, "It's a pity that he came from the countryside and has never received military training. He doesn't know any military tactics and can't compare with those young masters in the capital who have been trained by their families since childhood. Otherwise, I would definitely follow him."
"By the way, where's Guard Li? I haven't seen him since the battle."
"He must have followed the prince and princess."
Prefect Li twitched the corner of his mouth, and wanted to say that Li Dian was the King of Pingshan, who was very powerful, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
