Chapter 256 The capture of the cottage, a moment of life and death

After the dragon cavalry received the order, the dark armor slowly appeared in the bright moonlight, and the whole stronghold suddenly filled with a strong murderous atmosphere. Longxiao's army did not have such a turbulent momentum, but as soon as the whole Longling army came out, it was suddenly lonely.

Because it was late at night, and Tang Longyan and others dealt with sentries quickly, the rest of the people, Ma Shang, were still sleeping at this time. It was impossible to find that there was a demon from hell at this time, taking out a life-threatening charm at them!

Without saying anything, the dragoons directly went deep into the stronghold, but after entering the stronghold, they found that there were not tents, but dozens of houses, large and small. Tang Longyan immediately waved his big hands, and more than 200 Longxiao troops did not continue to follow up, but firmly surrounded the stronghold. Don't let anyone escape from this encirclement.

"The dragoons obey the order, stop harvesting, and do not kill. But if there is resistance and defection, there is no mercy! Go ahead!" Tang Longyan waved his hand and rushed into the largest house first.

As soon as he rushed into the house, Tang Longyan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. A big **, a tough middle-aged man was hugging several women in exposed clothes, snoring like thunder at this moment.

"Sir Tang, although those who achieve great things are not informal, you can't be sorry for my young lady!" A cold voice came from the beam, with a murderous atmosphere.

This is not what I want to see. Tang Longyan looked at the black cat on the beam and was about to do it. Suddenly, he felt that the big man's body was **. The big man also seemed to be quite powerful. Tang Longyan flew in first, but he didn't notice it, but the black cat appeared behind Tang Longyan's embarrassment. He immediately became alert and shouted to Liang Shang, "Who dares to break into the mountain of the king? Is he tired of living?" But when he saw the black cat, his eyes suddenly lit up. He suddenly kicked several women beside him to the bed and smiled, "I have never seen such a beauty as you. Little beauty, come down and let me have a look. As long as you are the king's wife, what else is not yours on this hill? Looking at the black cat on the beam, the man thought that the black cat was just an ordinary thief, but he could not find that the door was open and Tang Longyan standing in front of the door.

When the black cat saw that he was so frivolous, he immediately had a trace of anger, but this was not the main reason for her anger. In the past, he had never seen such a look in the jade flute building, but what made her most angry was that when she saw the women who were kicked out of bed by him, their eyes were full of panic.

But before the sleeve arrow in the black cat's hand was launched, Tang Longyan had already taken action. With a wave of his right arm, a big hand made of white cyanite directly pulled the big man over. The big man was stunned at first, and then shouted, "What a powerful demon, where did the evil come from? How dare you take action against me!" After saying that, he punched Tang Longyan directly.

Tang Longyan did not dodge, but took a step forward. His bones could not even be hurt by the military staff. How could he lose to a big man who reigned in the mountains at this moment? The big man punched Tang Longyan in the chest. First, he was happy, and then felt that the bones of his fingers were about to break. Before he could cry for pain, his whole body had been thrown out by Tang Longyan. Before flying out of the gate, he faintly heard Tang Longyan telling the black cat, "Those women will be handed over to you."

As soon as the mountain king landed, he found that his brothers, without exception, gathered in the open space in the middle of his cottage. On the other side, there are all the old women and children in the cottage.

Just now, the black light was blind. The mountain king did not see Tang Longyan's clothes clearly. When he got up from the ground and saw the cold faces under the armor around him, he understood what had happened. He immediately said dejectedly, "It's over. It turned out that the army has come to destroy us."

Tang Longyan came out of the house and asked the mountain king, "Why are they all Liao people here, but you are a Han man. Listening to your words, this seems to be the mountain you occupied, but why do you have so many Liao people here, even many Liao army's armaments, and what's going on with these women and children? "

When the mountain king saw Tang Longyan's question, he knew that he was invincible, but he was also quite backbone. He immediately raised his head and said proudly, "You are the Song army. I, Xiao Qian, am from Liao, but I was a Song people* when I was a child. Later, when I joined the army and was defeated, I took dozens of brothers here to occupy the mountain as the king. There are often merchants here. When people pass by, we make a living by robbery. But this is the border of Song and Liao. There are often wars, and dozens of my brothers have already been killed and injured. Later, I saw that this didn't work, so I collected the scattered deserters, and all the people who fled to me were the Liao army. Anyway, I was also the king of the mountain, and I didn't care so much. Anyway, some people took it. I didn't expect to be attacked by you today. Later, some of them took their families up the mountain, and some took away the wives and daughters of the merchants and became their own wives. There were so many old and weak women and children.

He paused and said, "I, Xiao Qian, know that I can't beat you, and I'm not a coward in your hands, but my group of Liao brothers and wives and daughters have no sins. Please let them go. Without me, I don't think they can become anything." While talking, he actually wanted to exchange his own life for other people's lives.

At this time, the black cat came over and said to Tang Longyan, "I just asked, this man is too abominable. The women you saw before were all forcibly suppressed by him up the mountain. I didn't expect that this person bullied a good woman like this. His surname is Tang. It's also a disaster to keep such a person. Why don't you kill him?

Tang Longyan frowned and didn't say anything for a moment. This action has undoubtedly exposed the whereabouts of everyone. However, since I have to take a detour, I have to tiptoe, and the speed will never be fast. If these mountain thieves are released, only one person and one fast horse can expose the whereabouts of the question to the Liaoning army in a day. At that time, I am afraid that my action will die. !

Xiao Qian was also a very intelligent person, otherwise he would not be the leader of these deserters. He was shocked when he saw Tang Longyan's refusal to give orders. He remembered that this was at the time of Song Liao's battle. Although the war did not break out, it was imminent. He was afraid that the two armies would fight in less than three days. At this time, a Song cavalry He appeared unconsciously on the side of the Liao army. How could he not know such an obvious motive?

"Your Excellency, you are going to attack the battalion of the commander of the Liaoning Army, right?" After all, he was also a soldier. Xiao Qian said this and immediately took a breath of cold air.

Tang Longyan did not answer him, but said lightly, "I'm just thinking about whether to kill you all." Looking at the frightened or angry eyes in front of him, Tang Longyan couldn't choose for a moment.

On the one hand, it is the slaughter that people spit on, and on the other hand, it may be ashamed of the failure of Daizhou's plan. Tang Longyan's life is facing so many life choices for the first time.

Long Qian behind him took a step forward and hugged Tang Longyan and said, "Master, those who achieve great things must be too forgetful first! In the past, when Lord Tang Lingtian was alive, he also killed 45 Heiyan cavalry with a sword in order to show his determination to Huang Ming! Please think twice!"

He Yanxin hurried forward and said to Tang Longyan, "Second brother, it should have been up to you at this time, but I have to say that this matter is life-threatening. If it is not a last resort, you will definitely not raise the butcher knife to kill the killer! More than half of them are old and weak women and children. If the eldest brother has doubts, he can cut off all their means of communication and never kill innocent people indiscriminately!"

Long Qian frowned. Suddenly, Long Kun and seven other people behind him came forward together, bowed deeply to Tang Longyan, hugged their fists and said, "For the sake of Yanmen Pass, in order to replace the people of the state, please think twice!"

On the other side, Zhou Tianyi and Qin Leiming came forward and said to Tang Longyan, "Second brother (second brother), this matter is related to hundreds of lives. Don't let your hands be stained with innocent blood for no reason. What's the difference between this and Huang Mingxiao?" Although the black cat also complained about Xiao Qian, it thought that if it was to be slaughtered, I was afraid that none of the old and weak women and children here could be left. After all, only the mouth of the dead was the most reliable. If Tang Longyan only killed the men, there would be hateful people among these women and children who desperately told their whereabouts to the Liao army. Therefore, If you want to kill, these people must also die.

"Two days later, I will fight with the Liao army. Who will not be infected with dozens or hundreds of lives?" Long Kun shouted coldly, "As a commander, how can you achieve great things without such courage?"

"The commander can be regarded as excellent if there are many people who kill him. On the contrary, those who show mercy also have a lot of achievements!" Zhou Tianyi saw Long Kun's instigation, and there was a trace of resentment in his heart. He was worried that Tang Longyan would be affected and immediately objected.

"Enough!" Tang Longyan roared, and although his voice was not loud, it shocked the people present in silence. A pale flame flashed in his cold eyes. Looking around, everyone was shocked by his look and did not dare to make a sound for a moment. They only heard him say slowly: "Xiao Qian, I don't care whether you are from Liao or Han, but since you have guessed the purpose of this army's trip, I can't keep you. But this slaughter of everyone here, no matter women and children, and it is too inhumane, you will definitely not accept it. In this case, I will let God make a decision. Xiao Qian, you choose, Song Yuantongbao or the star and moon pattern, you can choose one. Although Tang Longyan said it to Xiao Qian, he actually said it to people with two opinions on both sides.

Xiao Qian swallowed his saliva hard. He knew that this was his last chance. Although he was not afraid of death, he seemed to see the dawn of hope at this moment. After all, there was a 50% chance of survival. He tried his best to stabilize his excitement and said, "Since you are from the Song Dynasty, I will guess Song Yuantongbao!"

Tang Longyan nodded and slowly took out a copper coin from his waist.
