Chapter 484: Showdown 2

Now the troops of the Iron Blood Sect have completely avoided Yingzui Gorge, so ambushing here will have no value. In the absence of any help, Dou Mu had to mobilize his men and hurry toward the headquarter. Now the troops of Zhao Yuan and others are directly aiming at their headquarter.

Of course, if you don’t want to fight the final battle, you can naturally avoid the people from the Iron Blood Sect and leave here!

However, the headquarter was repeatedly taken over by others, and the face of the Underworld Gate almost disappeared, and there was no face to gain a foothold in this land. The Underworld Gate would naturally become a laughing stock.

In fact, Dou Guo and Dou Mu knew very well that their manpower was not the opponent of the Iron Blood Sect at all, but now they had to retreat. The Iron Blood Sect was aggressive this time.

One day later, according to the itinerary, it was only two days away from the head of the Underworld Gate. Zhao Yuan called Wugang and said, "Now we can arrange for people to spread the news!"

Yao Sheng said in confusion: "What news?"

Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "That's the news that the Underworld Gate has been identified as a robber. My Iron Blood Gate is just to help the government clear the matter!"

Yao Sheng said with some confusion: "But if this happens, will it be known to everyone in the city?"

Zhao Yuan said: "It is not a problem that everyone knows. After all, we are famous this time. What should we worry about? Another problem: to win, the best way is to defeat others without fighting, which can greatly reduce casualties! If they can surrender voluntarily, cause fewer casualties, and then forgive some of them in the name of the adults, the adults' fame will be there, the court can also have an argument, and the adults' kindness has a reputation. Isn't this a kill of three birds with one stone?"

After hearing Zhao Yuan say this, Yao Sheng thought about it and still felt that it made some sense. It would be better if he could not get a bloody sword. The underworld gate was not originally a kind of person with great sins, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's just follow the arrangements of the sect leader!"

In fact, there is no need to arrange Zhao Yuan’s plan with Yao Sheng at all, but after all, it was sent by the prefect, and respect for him is equivalent to respect for the prefect. You must do enough to save face.

Therefore, Wugang also asked the spies lurking in the underworld to start spreading news according to Zhao Yuan's intention.

Not long after, news began to flow out on the ground of the Underworld Gate's main steward. Perhaps the Iron Blood Sect was commissioned by the Suzhou Prefect to wipe out the robbers who had been entrenched in Qingxi for a long time and were entrusted to the merchant ships passing along the way.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately shocked the entire town. You should know that many young people in the town are asking for food in the underworld gate. Now the underworld gate has suddenly become a robber. Then joining the underworld gate will also become a robber. Moreover, the news has already been said that the Iron Blood Sect has been ordered to come to seize these robbers!

What is order? To put it bluntly, it is natural for him to kill you. Your corpse is his credit. If you kill him, it is called resisting the court. If you are caught, it is still a dead end.

To put it bluntly, it is a job that can make steady losses and never turn around. As long as you resist, it will be a dead end, and there is nothing else to choose from.

These disciples from the Underworld Sect said that they joined the Underworld Sect one by one. They were just asking for food and having enough food and clothing. Now they have to take out their lives to make food and clothing. It seems that there is no need to do so. Besides, is this a way to defend the country? There is no patriotism at all.

The most important point is that there are many people, and there are more than 700 people coming to others. However, the one-sided team has only more than 400 people. How could it be that more than 400 people can beat more than 700 people? Isn’t this just a total of eggs and stones?

This news began to spread in the town like a plague, and soon reached the disciples of the Iron Blood Sect and began to spread.

These disciples were already a little scared, but now the news has made them not just scared, but fear and fear.

The one who stayed at the head of the Underworld Gate was Dou Guo. Unlike Dou Mu, Dou Guo’s biggest feature was that he was a big boss. After hearing the rumors, he immediately found his subordinates and said, “Go and tell those brothers, don’t believe those lies. Those are all scary things. The iron blood sect just likes to turn around and make ghosts. I’m talking about it. The underworld Gate has been raising you for so many years. Now I want to avenge the gang leader. If anyone drives away, I will twist my head off! Even if I die, I have to pull the gang’s legs with the court to bury them together!”

Such scaring words can definitely scare those disciples on weekdays and make them fear each other. Then, at this time, it did not work well, especially some of the disciples were somewhat disgusted. What does it mean to raise? Didn’t you do anything on weekdays? It seems that they can only survive until now by relying on the food they gave to them. People are human beings, not a dog he raised by Dou Guo. Why do you have to fight with the court for revenge for the gang leader? I didn’t say that I joined the underworld gate as a robber.

Besides, why do you have to die? Can’t you live?

The dissatisfaction soon began to spread among these left-behind disciples, as if a dark cloud was shrouded above their heads.

But soon, another rumor began to spread in the headquarter of the town and the underworld gate. That is, if those who surrender voluntarily, except for the culprit, those who are extremely guilty and are willing to turn back to justice, they will not be investigated.

For those disciples of the Underworld who already felt that they had stepped into the gate of hell with one foot, this was like suddenly opening a door for them. You must know that survival is human instinct. These disciples are young, who would have thought they would die at such a young age?

After experiencing ups and downs, they have seen the value of life even more.

The time of the second news was also somewhat particular, that is, the people brought by Dou Mu who had originally ambushed had returned to the headquarters, which means that more people could know the whole news later.

In addition, the troops led by Zhao Yuan slowed down at this moment. According to Zhao Yuan, it was like making noodles. Just throwing the fermented noodles in, it would take some time to ferment. The better the fermentation, the more the steamed buns would be more fluffy.

On the other hand, the deterrent power was not relaxed at all. The disciples of the Iron Blood Sect, who were murderous intent with more than 700 people, were slowly approaching, making the disciples of the Underworld Gate seem to be able to watch the knife slashing towards their necks.

Perhaps for many people, death is a matter of momentum, but now the pressure caused by the Iron Blood Sect is like allowing them to watch themselves die.

There is a big difference between the disciples of the Underworld Sect and the soldiers. In fact, the biggest difference is that they are not soldiers, nor have they received the general discipline training of soldiers, and they have not instilled in them that patriotism and can sacrifice for the country. They are just a group of ordinary people who want to make a living, or in other words, they are just ordinary people who put down their hoes and picked up swords and guns.

Under such visible pressure, many of them have begun to be timid and afraid. Faced with the approaching Iron Blood Sect, they thought of not defeating, but running away. So at night, some of them began to escape, or some went to patrol teams. They originally sent more than 20 people, but only a few people came back, or the more than 20 people simply fled. This kind of escape will spread and cannot be hidden. Those who did not run away saw someone taking the lead, and many people were also moved. Now they have become bandits and robbers. Are they sitting here waiting for death?

So in just one day, nearly 30% of the people who escaped were coming, and most of the remaining ones wanted to escape or were hesitating.

When Dou Mu came back, Dou Guo did not tell him the rumors, and the matter was developing too quickly. When Dou Mu reported to him that someone had escaped, he did not panic and asked, "How many have you escaped?"

His subordinates hesitated for a moment and said, "So far, nearly 120 people have escaped!"

Dou Mu was actually planning to drink tea. When he heard this, his hand holding the teacup froze. He asked in disbelief and said, "How many have you escaped?"

The subordinates had to say again: "More than 120 people have escaped,"

Dou Mu said: "More than 120 people? Why are you reporting now?"

As he said that, he threw the teacup in his hand suddenly.

The subordinates were so scared that they quickly took a step back. Before they could answer, Dou Muteng stood up and immediately said, "Send people to capture these people, but they actually escaped before the battle. What's the difference between being a deserter? After they catch them, they will be cut off directly to serve as a warning to you!"

Before the subordinate could go out, a disciple rushed over and said, "No, no, the people from the Iron Blood Sect have arrived outside the town, and it is only two miles away from us!"

"What?"

As if he had no strength, Dou Mu sat on the chair and murmured, "Two miles?"

He knew very well but it was too late. Things had reached an irrescueable point. In fact, he had no time to save them now, or to capture those escaping disciples to warn you, because Zhao Yuan's iron blood sect had arrived at the city and arrived at the periphery of the town.

In the absence of any help, Dou Mu had no choice but to concentrate the remaining people and stay at the head of the steward, which was their last only barrier.

The location of the Underworld Gate has actually exceeded the scope under Suzhou's jurisdiction. This kind of case handling is equivalent to having exceeded the boundary. On weekdays, the Underworld Gate has also given a lot of benefits to the yamen in the area under the jurisdiction of the headquarter. However, this time, almost all of these yamen chose to remain silent and turned a blind eye to the practice of cross-border case handling such as the Iron Blood Sect.

However, there are still clever people. When Zhao Yuan and others arrived, another group of people had already arrived in a hurry, which was the yamen runners in charge of this area. After seeing Zhao Yuan, the leader of the leader said that it was probably the meaning that they were also ordered to come to encircle and suppress the underworld gate. The reason why paper money did not encircle and suppress was because the underworld gate was large and powerful, and the yamen did not have that power.

Everyone knows the meaning of their coming, that is, they just come to get a share of the pie and get the benefits, so they didn't refuse.

Soon, the team advanced, entered the town, and so on, and then surrounded the entire underworld gate's headquarter.

Zhao Yuan also nodded to Yao Sheng. Yao Sheng then took a step forward, unfolded a piece of the file, and then read it loudly. The one he recited was probably some of the crimes from the Underworld. As for whether these crimes were true or false, it was not important where they were collected. Anyway, no one cared about this.

After reading it, Yao Sheng closed the file and then said, "Mr. Chen is kind. I remember that many of the people here are bewitched and not the main culprits. As long as you surrender honestly, the court can keep it unrestrained. If you are still stubborn, you will be killed without any worries!"

"Don't kill if you disarm!"

"Don't kill if you disarm!"

"Don't kill if you disarm!"

The disciples of the Iron Blood Sect around him suddenly started to scream loudly at this moment, and then raised the weapon in his hand while saying that, and the sound of killing shocked the sky for a moment, and the whole earth seemed to be trembling slightly.

The disciples of the Underworld Gate, who were separated by the wall of the Iron Blood Gate, were now shouting like heavy hammers, hitting their chests hard. Their hands holding the weapons began to tremble, and their faces were full of fear.

Even though they were separated by a wall, they were very clear about how huge the momentum outside was. Many people were eyeing them outside, and they were like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Suddenly, the sound outside ended abruptly.

The disciples of the Underworld inside look at me and I look at me, but I don’t know what’s going on.

Suddenly, outside shouted loudly again: "Don't kill if you disarm!"

"Don't kill if you disarm!"

"Don't kill if you disarm!"

...

The sound suddenly sounded again, like a thunder, causing the hearts of the disciples of the underworld gate in the sect to tremble again!

If their hearts were like porcelain jars, they had cracks at this moment, and their already shaky morale was completely shattered by such a shock.

"Ah...ah..."

Some disciples of the Underworld Sect really couldn't bear the pressure of death. They threw the knife in their hands to the ground, rushed towards the door, and shouted loudly: "I surrender, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"Damn it!"

Dou Mu said angrily, picked up the knife, chased the sailing area, and chopped him over to the ground with one knife, and said angrily: "Who dares to surrender to the enemy, kill you without mercy!"

"ah!"

The disciple's scream before his death was like a shovel piercing the hearts of the others present.
