Chapter 187
The group came and went quickly, but Li Xiao still dared not relax.
On the one hand, Da Biao and his men were arranged to guard several village gates in Lijiazhuang and send people to patrol. On the other hand, Zhang Cong and Liu Suan rode on horseback and reported to Lantian County and Lantian Zhechong Mansion respectively.
Chang'an was too far away, so Li Xiao didn't send anyone. Anyway, he reported the matter to Liu Qing, and he must have understood the severity of the matter and would send someone to Chang'an for Li Xiao. As for sending people to Zhechong Mansion in Lantian, he went to find Liu Jun.
Liu Jun was a member of the army in a Zhechong Mansion in Lantian. He was not in a high position as a seventh rank, but at least he was the nearest garrison in the government. This is his old brother. If that guy kills another shot, he will have to rely on him at that time.
Yang Dayan also saw a clue, "The person who came was not good. This corn had not been planted yet, and this kind of monster had happened. Sanlang, I think we have to be careful. If you hide the corn seeds, it will be troublesome if you lose it. I will let the students in the academy go home and let them go home to inform the people from each village, and let the people on duty in our Lanxi Township Qantang militia come and help."
"There is no need to mobilize others like this. I guess that group of people don't have the courage to come again." Li Xiao said.
"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of it. Since that group of people dares to come once, who dares to say he won't come twice." Yang Dayan insisted on asking the militia of the Township Qing Hall to come to help. Li Xiao thought about it and agreed.
Li Xiao called Yang Dayan, "Master, I asked the students to tell their parents that a robber just came to surround the village and asked the people from the village to come and help protect the yard. I said that I said that everyone who came here would remember this affection, and each person would give twenty cents to two liters of corn as a thank-you gift."
There are always some benefits to asking everyone to help. Moreover, if there are officers and soldiers coming to surround the village, Li Xiao is also worried that everyone is afraid. If it is a robber, everyone will definitely not be worried.
"Okay." Yang Dayan turned around and went.
Li Xiao shook the toad green robe on his body and sighed. This is all his fucking shit. As soon as he became a small official, someone actually brought troops to deal with him.
Fortunately, the big man was not a fool just now. If he really rushed in without saying a word, just with those 100 cavalrymen, the men, women, and young men in Lijiazhuang, all the men, women, and young men in Lijiazhuang came forward to stop him, but there was no use for a bird.
Just now, he truly witnessed the violent group of this era. Without the dazzling Mingguang armor, most of the soldiers were wearing leather armor, and not many of them were in iron armor. The horses under the climax were not all the fur colors, nor were they tall and majestic horses, but these people had a trembling murderous aura.
The not-so-long horizontal knife is hidden in the scabbard, the bow on the back, the quiver on the waist, and the spear in the hand are all full of murderous intent.
He believed that as long as Yu Chengji gave the order just now, the group of soldiers in the palace would definitely be unsheathed and rush over with spears.
The whole Lijiazhuang is united as one.
Every household didn't care about anything. They were picking up hoes, picking up iron forks, and holding wooden sticks. Everyone spontaneously divided into teams to guard the village wall, swearing to guard Lijiazhuang.
Fortunately, the nervous people did not notice that the group of cavalry shot back.
However, the militia from Lanxi Township came very quickly.
Lanxi Academy is on temporary holiday today. The old master asked the students to go home and tell their parents that there were robbers coming to surround the village in Lijiazhuang just now. Although they were scared by Li Sanlang, they were afraid of going back and asked everyone to come to help guard the village. They also asked them to tell the parents that there were the benefits of twenty cents and two liters of grain when they came.
The villagers are already enthusiastic. I heard that Lijiazhuang would not come to help when they encounter robbers, let alone there are benefits. Everyone knows that Li Sanlang is so good at helping him. No one refuses to refuse.
Some people even thought that the Tang Dynasty has been peaceful for many years. Although Lanxi is located in the foothills of the Qinling Mountains, there are few large robbers and horse thieves. Today, some people want to come to Lanxi to rob. This is really not open.
Maybe there will be a chance to catch a few thieves in a while, and there will be a chance to make meritorious service and receive rewards.
The villagers all came from one group, and the villagers from one village came together.
Everyone came together, holding wooden poles and red tassel spears. This spear is the standard equipment of the village militia. Each person has one shot and reported it in the county government. Because the spear is not as good as a spear and is not considered an army weapon, it doesn't matter if the militia equipment is used.
This kind of spear is also simple to make. Anyway, it is just a long stick, equipped with a small iron spear tip. If the single body has a single lethality, it is definitely not as good as a spear, and it cannot be compared with a spear, but if a group of strong men in the militia are holding a spear together, it is not something that ordinary thieves can fight against.
There are usually only one hundred people in the village militia group.
However, in this moment, hundreds of men have already arrived one after another.
Each of them carried a red tassel gun and stood in front of the village, and suddenly they felt aura.
"Liu Lichang, I didn't expect you to come in person, so I'm so grateful." Li Xiao and his people were visiting the villagers who came to help.
A big pot of millet porridge, lump noodle soup, and a bowl of fried pickles. A few tables were set up on the market, and everyone was not polite.
You can have a bowl of one bowl and I will not use a table or a chair after it is packed. You will squat at any time with the bowl. Holding a long spear in your arms, with a big bowl in one hand and a chopstick in the other hand, and you will immediately start eating.
Everyone has long been familiar with Li Xiao’s style of conduct and knows that Li Sanlang is a person who is elegant and generous, so he doesn’t feel polite to taste.
Liu Lichang smiled and asked his servants to go to have dinner, and stood and talked to Li Xiao.
"What's going on? I haven't heard of Lantian in many years, and I heard that there are still hundreds of horse thieves, a large area of Wuyangyang, and there are also armor-clad flags, spears and horses? Could it be that there are some chaos soldiers from where?"
Lanxi is close to Chang'an and is also a key player in Lanwudao.
I have never heard of any big thieves in the Qinling Mountains over the years. If there are, they are also the sporadic fugitives who are unhappy.
When he heard that Lizhuang had a large number of horse thieves surrounded the village, he thought of some chaos in Chang'an, or the army mutiny in some nearby, and then passed by here to rob?
"To be honest, there are indeed hundreds of cavalrymen, and the other party is a soldier. But now I don't know whether they are mutinious soldiers or anything else. Now I have sent someone to report to the county government and sent someone to the military mansion near the prince's house for help. No matter what, I would like to thank Liu Lichang for helping you."
Liu Lichang frowned and looked a little solemn.
"No matter what, we are all fellow villagers in the countryside. When encountering such a thing, we naturally have to help each other. I have asked all the villages in the village to be careful and arranged for the strong men to guard the village. I hope there will be no trouble."
By the evening, there were already 500 strong villagers in Lanxi Township in Lijiazhuang, sitting or squatting with red tassel guns, greeting each other. They were so unhappy about chatting, but they were not nervous or worried at all.
After all, after waiting for so long, I haven't seen any horse thief.
Although there are no horse thieves, it is not in vain to come. Once you come, you will get a sum of money and food, which makes everyone very happy.
