Chapter 33: A big victory

Ye Youji stared at the arrogant thin man with an angry face and said, "Surrender immediately, otherwise, hmph, you will bear the consequences." “

As an orthodox scholar, Ye Youji still hopes to solve those bandits peacefully. Yang Xiuqing was a little speechless, and said in his heart, no wonder this Ye Youji was driven to live in a grass shed in Taiping County, seeing that the officers and soldiers here had prepared muskets and other weapons, Yang Xiuqing walked to Ye Youji's side and shouted.

"All the generals, listen to my orders, whoever captures a thief alive will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and whoever kills one person will be rewarded with three taels." Yang Xiuqing's words made the bandit laugh wildly.

"Ha, this kid isn't stupid, he's still the general, I'm still the emperor..." A strong man and a bandit laughed and landed on the ground, and the bandit vanguard team on the opposite side had already fired at the peak.

"Kill, kill, kill,.......。"

Ye Youji looked at Yang Xiuqing, who was full of concealment, "Did you do this?" “

Yang Xiuqing looked at the thief who had been beaten to the ground and replied; "You see, they have all been defeated, and this is not a proof that my money is worth it."

In an instant, the bandits fled with a scream, and when Ye Youji looked at the injured bandits screaming like a gelding pig, he felt very satisfied in his heart, if he could have 100,000 soldiers in this battle, he would definitely be able to sweep the enemy country.

Just when Ye Youji wanted to get into trouble, Yang Xiuqing pushed Ye Youji and said: "Brother Ye, hurry, quickly lead people to chase, don't let anyone go." ”

"Yes, boy Yang, I will leave you twenty people, and I will take the rest." Ye Youji, who reacted, left a word, and beckoned people to chase after him.

"Come on, chase me." Ye Youji shouted and ran first.

"Yang Er, these people have been practicing for more than a month and are so fierce, so if they practice for a few more years, will it be even more fierce." Yang Xiuqing couldn't have imagined that these people in front of him would raise their knives and fight with more than 100 people after firing a shot, knowing that there were only about 100 people on his side, and they were just farmers who had been practicing for more than a month.

Yang Er replied with a painful face: "Young master, that's not a war, that's money, they are fighting for silver, some of them are small long-term workers and small farmers recruited from the landlord, they may not have five taels of silver a year, of course they are fierce."

Hearing this, Yang Xiuqing woke up like a dream and looked at the members of the Xianfeng team who were kidnapping people, "No wonder it is said that fighting a war is to burn money, and it really can't be done without money, I think about it, in order to think that I have a good life, I must get a lot of money." “

"Report, Lord County, we have captured fifty people alive and killed more than a dozen people, there are no dead on our side, as long as the two of them were slightly injured in order to rob people, there are no injuries."

A squad leader of the bandit vanguard team came to Yang Xiuqing and excitedly reported the previous situation, Yang Xiuqing stared at the bandits who were tied up in rows with wide eyes.

"This, this is too fierce, well, good, good, master, I'll go back and get a reward as usual." Yang Xiuqing patted the squad leader with a big smile.

"By the way, you help them with medicine, if they can not die, don't let them die." Yang Xiuqing looked at a few of them bleeding from their stomachs, and remembered the matter of taking medicine.

"My lord, don't all this bandits deserve to die? Why should we save them? Yang Er asked with some puzzlement, but he knew how much Yang Xiuqing hated the Jitou Mountain bandits.

"Of course, the dead bandits are good bandits, but you know, wouldn't it be better to live them and die all the bandits." Yang Xiuqing waved his hand and laughed.

Yang Xiuqing had already seen the future of Jitou Mountain, and when he waited until the evening, Ye Youji came back with dozens of people with a black face.

"Brother Ye, how are the results?" Yang Xiuqing saw Ye Youji come back with a black face like a defeated rooster, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

"It's okay, it's a complete victory, damn, I didn't expect that there were more than a dozen people behind to answer, they all surrendered, let's go back." As soon as Ye Youji finished speaking, he asked someone to pack up his things and prepare to leave.

Yang Xiuqing felt that there must be something inside in this, and under his eyes, Jin Dafu immediately knew what Yang Xiuqing meant, he nodded and immediately ran over to talk to those men.

When he was about to return to the city, Jin Dafu came to report with a wild laugh, it turned out that among the thieves, there was a handsome young man who looked like a woman but a man, but Ye Youji was fascinated and almost lost his life, but he still let the kid run, and most importantly, the kid also deceived Ye Youji.

When Yang Xiuqing heard Jin Dafu's return, his inner whistle relaxed, and he thought that something big had happened.

After returning to the city, as soon as the news spread, the whole city was lively, and the county commander Wang Zheng immediately reported his merits, but he added his own selfishness, but there was a news that made Yang Xiuqing very unhappy.

In the hall of the Yang family, Zhu Zhanpeng held a piece of paper with an extremely ugly face and said: "Young master, there has been a great saying in the city recently, saying that repairing the bridge will break the feng shui on both sides of the river, and a large number of people will prevent the bridge from being repaired, especially that young master, you want to kill those people who live in the lower reaches of the river, so few workers who repair the bridge are willing to come to repair the bridge, and even the materials are far from entering the city, and they are all stopped outside the city by the people." ”

Yang Xiuqing pondered with a dark face, he knew that someone must be secretly preventing him from repairing the bridge, could anyone see what he was going to do, thinking of this, Yang Xiuqing was crazy in his heart.

"Uncle Zhu, how did the land purchase in Hexi go?"

"Oh, this is not very satisfactory, but no one has made trouble at this time, but there are many people who have not given an answer whether they are willing to sell the land or not."

Yang Xiuqing smiled, it was good that he hadn't paid attention to the land yet, but the government didn't issue a notice about the bridge repair, how did those people know, this was obviously someone doing something behind his back.

"Dafu, Dafu, you died there." Yang Xiuqing shouted a few times to the gate.

"Here, here, what's the matter with the young master." Kim Dae-fu ran in like a dog seeing its owner.

"You know about the bridge." Yang Xiuqing looked at Jin Dafu in confusion.

Jin Dafu broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this: "Young master, it's not easy for Lao Jin's money, but I am loyal to you." “

"Stop, stop, who wants your money, you heard about it, I specially recruited you as the tax inspector of Taiping County on behalf of the government, I heard that the imperial grain has been a little less in recent years, you also pay attention to some, especially those villages downstream, I will give you another 10,000 taels, in short, I want to get this matter done for Lao Tzu, and let those grain officials sign a few self-confessions."

Hearing this, Jin Dafu understood that this was asking him to engage in conspiracy and ghost schemes, isn't this a traitor? But as soon as he saw Yang Xiuqing's treacherous appearance, he felt sorry for those who organized the fight against the bridge repair.
