After asking Lin Yu the reason for killing Cao Baihu, Liu Youde hurriedly came to the East City Gate with a group of colleagues, and Shi Li asked: "Your Excellency claims to be the Governor of Lin, do you have documents and ribbons?" ”

After inspecting the physical evidence, it was confirmed that Liu Youde and Yao Xi quietly exchanged a look, but Li Guo, who was disguised as an entourage, looked at him and quietly reminded Lin Yu: "Governor, I think these officials in Yuezhou have bad intentions, and they must be careful." ”

"Don't worry, Ben Du knows it, and you see how I look at it." Lin Yu agreed quietly.

With a pistol on his body to defend himself, Hao Shaoqi followed with two brigades of men and horses, and Li Guo, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was not nervous, and followed Lin Yu as if nothing happened, with a pair of eyes like eagle eyes vigilant to every move around him.

"Huh...... It turned out that it was Lin Dudu who arrived, and he missed the distance, and he hoped to forgive his sins! ”

Governor Liu's smiling Shi Li returned the seal ribbon and documents to Lin Yu, "It's just that I don't know what crime Cao Baihu has committed, so that he provoked the anger of the governor and used Shang Fang's sword?" ”

Lin Yu snorted coldly and said solemnly: "The Tartar is close at hand, but these hundred households are derelict in their duties as the leaders of the city guards, and they are lawless. The Governor opened the gates of the city with a single word, and divulged the city's military secrets without checking.

If we are the internal response of the Tartars, I am afraid that at this moment, Yuezhou is already a river of blood, and it is not his Cao Baihu who will die, but thousands of people!

In troubled times, we need to use heavy codes, and this governor killed Cao Baihu today to use his head to kill chickens and monkeys, so that the soldiers in Yuezhou City know who dares to take the life and death of the people seriously, and this governor will cut off his head! ”

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, these warlords with heavy troops, such as Zuo Liangyu, Zheng Zhilong, and the four towns of Jiangbei, as long as they had military power in their hands, they didn't take the imperial court seriously at all, let alone the local government.

Not to mention killing a small hundred households, even killing officials of the prefect and Tongzhi are unscrupulous.

Gao Jie and Liu Liangzuo have killed several prefects, Zuo Liangyu didn't even take high-ranking officials such as governors and governors in his eyes, and forced Yang Sichang, the governor of Huguang, to death in the front, and imprisoned Yuan Jixian and He Tengjiao, the governor of Huguang.

Moreover, Lin Yu held the sword of Shang Fang, and officials below the sixth rank had the right to cut first and then play, so Liu Youde naturally did not dare to ask more.

"The lesson of the governor is that the subordinate has prepared a thin wine in the prefect's yamen to catch the wind and wash the dust for you, and I hope to appreciate the light!" Liu Youde nodded and bowed, with a flattering expression.

Before coming to the city gate, Yao Xi made an ambush, and ordered a thousand households to lead two hundred soldiers to ambush around the prefect's yamen banquet hall, smash the cup as a number, as long as he heard the sound of breaking the cup, he rushed up and took down the person.

"Lead the way!"

Lin Yu was not afraid, and followed Liu Youde and his party straight to the prefect's yamen.

In addition to Li Guo, Gao Yigong, and Fang Yizhi, there were also Deng Yan and six soldiers of the Shenji Company. With two submachine guns, one rifle, one shotgun, five pistols, and nearly a thousand rounds of ammunition, it is completely capable of suppressing hundreds of enemies in a small area.

It didn't take long for him to come to the prefect's yamen banquet hall, Yao Xi wanted to stop Lin Yu's entourage outside, but Deng Yan had to give up when he was glared at, and his heart was only eight or nine entourage, just a few more feather arrows!

The feast was quite sumptuous, but there was no singing and dancing.

After a tour of wine, Liu Youde held a wine bowl and probed: "I heard that Governor Lin led his troops to help Fengyang, but for some reason he suddenly appeared in our Yuezhou?" ”

"This governor came to Hunan to absorb Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, and has been successfully incorporated into the Lin family's army. I came to Yuezhou this time to ask you for food, the Qing army is about to cross the river, and the Lin family army will shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending Hunan. As the prefect of Yuezhou, you should provide food and grass support. ”

Lin Yu was not polite, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, and went straight to the point.

All the officials present were taken aback, they not only had to guard against the Qing army crossing the river, but also feared that the Dashun army would attack the city. I didn't expect this Lin Dudu to say that he had incorporated Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, which was tens of thousands of people, isn't it true?

"Huh...... Didn't Lin Dudu make fun of us? ”

Yao Xian glared at a pair of dead fish eyes, with a murderous aura on his face, "As far as I know, although the Shun army was beaten by the Tartars, there are at least a hundred thousand people who follow Li Zicheng?" What did Lin Dudu take them in, empty mouth and white teeth? ”

Lin Yu stroked the hilt of Shang Fang's sword in his hand and said coldly: "This governor is stating his intentions, and it is not your turn to ask back." If I have more mouths and more tongues, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword! ”

"Haha...... Your Shang Fang sword can only kill officials of the sixth rank and below, and my Yuezhou Wei commander is the third grade, what qualifications do you have to kill me? Yao Xi suddenly slapped the case and asked loudly.

Commander Liu Ding also took the case, and shouted: "I, the commander and the same knowledge, are also from the third grade, and I am afraid that you will have a Shang Fang sword?" Now that Da Ming is about to die, don't use chicken feathers as arrows! ”

Lin Yu laughed loudly: "Isn't the sum of two three grades equal to six grades?" It's as easy for Ben Governor to kill you as it is for a dog! ”

With a "snap", Yao Xi picked up a wine glass and fell to the ground: "Come on, take down this arrogant man!" ”

"Kill!"

The prefect's yamen suddenly heard the sound of killing, and the officers and soldiers who had been in ambush for a long time poured into the banquet hall with arquebuses, bows and arrows, and knives and guns.

"Except for the one surnamed Lin who stayed behind and dedicated it to the King of Pingxi, everyone else was slaughtered by me!" Yao Xi rolled up his sleeves and held the knife in his hand.

Lin Yu took out a pistol from his arms and aimed at Yao Xian's chest and fired several shots: "These dog officials actually fornicated with Tartars, kill me!" ”

Rao is Yao Attack dodged fast enough, but he couldn't get as fast as a bullet, and he was shot three times in a row, and his body slowly collapsed: "Okay...... Fast...... Target...... Gun"

With Lin Yu's order, Deng Yan hugged Thompson and fired at the swarming officers and soldiers; Another soldier held Su Luotong and Deng Yan side by side, and the bullets sprayed from the two submachine guns were like two fiery snakes, blocking the way for the officers and soldiers to advance.

Supplemented by a rifle, a shotgun, and four pistols, a powerful firepower network was formed, covering almost the entire banquet room, and the officers and men who were shot and fell to the ground went forward one after another, as if harvesting rice and wheat.

In just a few minutes, at least seventy or eighty ambush soldiers died under the guns, all covered in bullet holes and bleeding.

The ambush soldiers hiding outside the door before they had time to enter were frightened, and they all threw their weapons and ran away. The screams and exclamations in the prefect's yamen came and went, and there was chaos.

In the melee, in addition to the commander of Yuezhou Wei Yao Xian was killed, the commander Liu Ding and Hu Miao, who rushed up, were also shot and killed, and only a few civilian officials who got under the table when they saw that the situation was not good escaped and escaped.

Liu Youde was so frightened that he peed his pants, and begged for mercy tremblingly under the table: "Lin Dudu spares his life, spare his life, everyone is ambushed by Yao, don't do my business, don't do my business!" ”

Lin Yu stepped forward and lifted Liu Youde up from under the table, and asked sharply: "The people and horses are lying in ambush in your yamen, do you say you don't want to do your business?" ”

"One shot is over!" Li Guo raised his pistol and was eager to try.

Lin Yu stretched out his hand to stop him: "Leave him alive for the time being, his head is of other use." ”

"Liu Youde, you are so bold, you dare to collude with Yao to attack and hurt the court officials?"

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the yamen, it turned out that Jia Yao, the governor of Yuezhou, learned that Liu Youde, Yao Xian and others had set up an ambush and were ready to capture the governor of Fengyang to surrender to the Qing army, so he organized three hundred private soldiers and messengers to come to the rescue and forcibly broke into the prefect's yamen.

Lin Yu showed a look of relief when he learned of his intentions: "Yes, it is rare that you still have patriotic people in Yuezhou Mansion, I will repair the book and report it to the imperial court and Governor Yuan, and you will be the prefect of Yuezhou in the future." ”
