Ye Qing Congshan Ruliu nodded: "What Mr. Lu said is true. If this person knows what he is doing, get out of here. If he doesn't, just stay. I will also let some people see that my sword is not good. This matter will be left to Jiang Chen..."
Just as Jiang Chen was about to go out, Zhang Fangbiao raised his head and said: "Master Jiang is a Dianwu captain and is very popular. I don't need to do anything about this matter, leave it to me."
"I don't need to use my own soldiers, but secretly mobilize some green forest gangsters. It's easy to deal with these hundred or ten guards."
Ye Qing looked into Fang Biao's eyes, and when he saw his firm gaze, he smiled: "Okay, I will give you a group of bandit costumes that were seized last time to use as a cover, and I will assign you ten magicians to support the formation. You can take people back to make arrangements, so that this county can
Let me know something."
"Yes" Zhang Fangbiao responded loudly.
Seeing that the important things were done, Ye Qing smiled and said: "Everyone has just come up from the ground. You are all tired. You are all hungry. Let's go back and rest after dinner."
When Cao Baijing heard this, she stood up and said, "At this time, the kitchen is ready. Let's go."
Everyone laughed and turned around, and there was a feast.
Qianqian then smiled and invited everyone to sit down and say: "Everyone has just come back from the soil. It is not suitable for big fish and meat. Here are ginseng wine, porridge, and some dishes..."
When everyone looked around, they saw a bowl of ginseng wine in front of them. It was golden in color and contained seven or eight vegetables. The aroma was fragrant. Everyone was very hungry, so they went up to eat and drink.
Pingshou County
At the foot of the mountains to the west, there was a convoy moving, with ten carts and hundreds of people. A large ox cart in the middle looked gorgeous in the morning sun, showing the magistrate's inauguration style.
The middle-aged staff was arranging matters. The closer we got to Pingshou County, the smoother the roads became. I heard that Lu Magistrate County raised funds for the renovation, but I don’t know where Pingshou Qiong County got the money in the past.
I checked with Prefect Yu in the county and found that the tax amount doubled every year, just for the grain levy, and the spring commercial tax almost surpassed that of the county and city. It was incredible...
"I heard that Ye's wine shop is doing a lot of business, and they have all gone to Wei State. Maybe you can suggest me to do a good investigation and find some oil and water?"
The staff member stroked his smooth goatee and looked back to see the pink curtains swaying dimly. He could hear the beauty's soft words and laughter from time to time.
Occasionally, the pink curtains fluttered in the breeze, and Qi Qiuming could be seen lying on his back in the arms of a young maid. The contrast between the old man's pale hair and the girl's pretty face was particularly dazzling, and the servants and guards quickly averted their eyes.
I cursed secretly that I am not ashamed of myself.
"Is there any reaction from Pingshou County?" a voice came from inside.
The staff member wiped his sweat, picked up only the good ones and said: "There are more than a dozen families in the south of the county who have invited the county lord in advance. In the evening, there will be a banquet in the county seat to welcome the lord. There will be a dance by the new Ji family from the south."
"Oh, Ji, why did you descend to Xiaopingshou County?"
"This is the power of an adult," the staff boasted, but they had some thoughts in their hearts: "Why are there only a dozen families from this county here?"
"Originally the county magistrate failed to control it well, or..."
Thinking about this, another scout came running and delivered the military news that everything was normal in the front. The staff was a little hesitant after receiving the news. The master was rarely alive and happy, so it was probably inappropriate to interrupt him at this time.
"Is something wrong?"
Qi Qiuming raised his head from the maid's soft embrace and leaned against her, like a beautiful soft cushion. He happily glanced at the girl who was timidly enduring the pain and felt very at ease. When a person reaches old age, his meager teachings cannot support him.
When the carriage and horse are tired, you can save your own energy if you can. This is the court's way of treating scholar-bureaucrats favorably. Is it wrong?
The staff did not dare to respond carelessly: "Sir, I have military information."
"Bring it over here and let me take a look." Qi Qiuming's voice was a little urgent, but in fact he was not as relaxed and happy as he had shown along the way.
He took the military message and glanced at it, but couldn't find the information he wanted. He frowned and asked, "We are about to enter Pingshou County. The Ye family hasn't sent anyone to the border to greet us yet?"
"This...no."
"How can it be that this son is so unruly? He is a man of heaven. He doesn't come to greet him in person, and he makes excuses. He doesn't even send anyone..." Qi Qiuming smiled and his eyes turned cold: "General Fudi is an independent post.
But he has to obey the overall situation of the county. Do you think I, the county magistrate, can't control him?"
"Place it in the imperial court. This son has resigned from the fifth rank of Hanlin and the envoy of Quanwen, and has no official position. The Earl of Nanlianshan has a noble name, but he is empty-handed. What can he do?"
After hearing this, the staff member said thoughtfully: "Ye Bangyan also has a backing. There are the chief and deputy envoys of Shuifu Mansion in this county as Taoist companions. I found out that these two dragon girls are both princesses of the Dragon Palace. I heard that the family has raised another Jurchen.
"It's not surprising that the temperament of an eighteen-year-old boy is most enhanced by women, and his eyes are higher than his head."
Qi Qiuming's face twitched. Eighteen years old is very irritating to an old man. Thinking of many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he couldn't help but get angry: "Huh, young and arrogant. Even the Dragon King of this state has never been involved in human affairs. I
With the instructions of Governor Yan and the support of Governor Yu, after taking office, we must..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden scream from far away. Qi Qiuming suddenly shuddered, jumped up from the woman's body, raised the curtain and looked outside: "What's going on?"
"There seems to be thieves," the guard captain shouted as he rode over.
"What, didn't it mean that the remnant bandits in Pingshou County have been eliminated?" Qi Qiuming screamed, and suddenly heard a "swish" sound, and an arrow hit a guard near the guard captain, and he screamed in agony.
, fell down.
"There are thieves." Everyone was in panic.
"Puff!" There was a shower of arrows, and dozens of people in the front team fell down. They were all shot from the woods on both sides.
"Be careful, adults"
The guard captain held up his shield to block several arrows: "There are many enemy invaders, three hundred of them, who appeared out of nowhere. We didn't detect them just now..."
"Trash" Qi Qiuming scolded him. He was a Juren who knew how to use Taoism, so he gave blessings to the squadron.
These officers and soldiers were deployed by the county. After experiencing some wars, they quickly reacted and formed a protective formation. They also issued a fireworks warning to request reinforcements from Pingshou County and Xiyun County.
The brilliant red light "pop" exploded in the clear sky, and the red enemy message was very eye-catching against the emerald green mountain background.
Seeing this, the guard captain finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Every ten miles away, the guard posts will respond to convey the enemy's situation and mobilize the troops from the two neighboring counties to support them. As long as they persist for half an hour, the Xiyun County Pioneer Cavalry will most likely arrive. Pingshou
Counties with mountainous areas will be delayed a little longer, but it is also a follow-up insurance."
Qi Qiuming breathed a sigh of relief and saw the trees in the forest parting. In front of them were a bunch of people in black, but there was a group of people in an orderly array behind them.
"Sir, I'm afraid they're not thieves..." The guard captain looked dazed. He stared at these people whose faces were uncovered: "I've seen a few of them before following Ye Bangyan when he attacked the grassland. This may be the Mo family's.
People, and the dozen or so people in cloaks, may be..."
"It's a magician"
Qi Qiuming blurted out. He clearly felt that these people were not hiding their spiritual pressure. His heart sank and his voice trembled: "This is to murder a county magistrate... Even the superficial cover-up is done hastily. How dare this person do this?
Arrogant, are you really not afraid of the wrath of the imperial court and the thunder of heaven?"
Not far away, Zhang Fangbiao smiled ferociously. Looking back, he saw several green forest leaders in front of him who were waiting solemnly for orders. He said in a deep voice: "Except for this county magistrate, leave no one behind. Kill them all."
Several of them were heroes from nearby martial arts circles, but in front of Zhang Fangbiao, like Sun Tzu, they clasped their fists together and said: "Take orders."
"Kill" In the blink of an eye, hundreds of martial arts people rushed over, and everyone's eyes were filled with excitement.
The martial arts itself is a gangster society, and the situation in Dacai is very difficult. When the catastrophe comes, because Taoists from outside the realm often seek out and drive them to rebel, they are now almost synonymous with "rebels". Not only are their properties confiscated, but their families are also killed.
He was once again in a situation where he was hungry, cold and without protection.
The Ye family said that after finishing the vote, the Ye family would help them clear their names. This was almost a life-saving straw.
Everyone immediately rushed down the mountain, collided with each other, and fought for their lives.
The difference between the military and martial arts people is that if it is one-on-one, the warriors will kill soldiers just like they kill ordinary people, and they will die casually.
Ten versus ten, warriors can easily kill soldiers.
One hundred against one hundred, the army has some restraint, but it still cannot make up the gap.
At this time, they were killing each other, and screams from both sides rang out one after another. In a short time, corpses were lying on the ground, with blood splattering out.
Seeing this, both sides showed hesitation and fear, but neither side had a way out.
As for the officers and soldiers, if they abandon the county magistrate and flee, they will still die if they return.
In terms of martial arts, once you move your hands, there is no way out. At that moment, the muscles on the faces of several warrior leaders couldn't help trembling. They bit their lower lips and waved their hands: "Brothers, we have no way out. Let's kill. It's over."
, only then can we survive——"
Immediately after "killing", there was another fierce battle.
Zhang Fangbiao's eyes were calm, and he led thousands of troops to fight in Xiatu. Battles involving tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands had gone through. The battle in front of him was simply child's play for him.
"Hey, it's exactly what your lord said, I've really changed a lot." Zhang Fangbiao stretched out his hand, looked at his own hand, shook his head and sighed.
This is the spirit of a general.
There were heavy casualties on both sides, but in the end the warriors gained the upper hand, and each officer and soldier fell down screaming.
"Take up the damage and leave no one behind." Zhang Fangbiao smiled darkly and said, "You can't tolerate it, kill it. It will be satisfying to kill Yu Jingjing."
Someone went to finish the attack, and the people on the ground who were not dead were screaming in horror. The Green Forest people who had been killing people all their lives were dumbfounded.
For people in the martial arts world, killing is not a big deal, but killing like this calmly and without caring is the difference between the army and the underworld.
Zhang Fangbiao took a deep breath and bathed in the blood. His iron-like body remained motionless and felt very comfortable. This was the life he needed.
After a moment, he glanced at the martial arts leader who looked a little dazed and said: "You just have little experience, so you are not good enough. Killing hundreds of people is nothing."
After saying that, the man stepped forward and arrived at the carriage.
"No, don't kill me, I am the county magistrate." Qi Qiuming screamed and huddled in the car without moving.
"Hmph, you look like a bitch, you are still a county magistrate." Fang Biao stepped forward, patted Qi Qiuming's face, and said disdainfully: "However, you are indeed a county magistrate, so I won't kill you."
As he said that, he stood up and ignored the man's fearful and resentful eyes: "Retreat the troops and let the county magistrate think carefully here. Maybe he will understand something."
