Chapter 42: A bite back

"You talk nonsense!" Zheng Jiu had the heart to kill Su Yi at this moment, he looked at the horse under his crotch, how could he not connect this kind of inferior horse with a military horse, and although Da Chu strictly ordered the people everywhere not to hide weapons privately, but the people here are fierce, and it is common for the people to wear weapons.

It's just that he can't explain this kind of thing, and he is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot at the moment.

The woman in the carriage also seemed to know that she was in trouble, and hid in the carriage and did not dare to make a sound.

One of the guards secretly approached the city gate, and when Qian Leopard saw this, he raised his hand and shot an arrow into the opponent's thigh. The guard screamed in pain and fell off the horse, Zheng Jiu and the others suddenly looked like ashes, but they didn't expect the other party to really do it.

Although Qian Leopard's archery skills are not very good, he has been fighting with Gao Heihu for many years, and has experienced countless battles large and small, and this kind of thing is a common thing for him to draw a bow and shoot arrows.

"You hurt people in broad daylight, and there is no royal law." Zheng Jiu's words revealed a sense of sadness, and he finally knew now that the other party didn't care about the Zheng family's background at all.

Su Yi looked at Zheng Jiu coldly and said, "Here, we are Wang Fa." ”

Zheng Jiu felt that these words were somewhat familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere, he trembled with anger, but he was helpless.

"What do you have to do to give up?"

"I said, you slap your mouth twenty times, and then you can get out." Su Yi glanced at Zheng Jiu and said lightly.

"You!" Zheng Jiu clenched the Pu knife in his hand, and his old face twisted angrily, like an angry little daughter-in-law.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the soldiers at the gate of the city hurriedly rushed over, Zheng Jiu's eyes flashed with resentment, and he shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the villain is the servant of the Zheng family, these thieves indiscriminately shot and injured our companions, and threatened to kill the county seat. ”

Among these soldiers, there was a person dressed as a captain, after listening to Zheng Jiu's words, his eyes flashed, and he didn't pay attention to Su Yi and the others, but asked Zheng Jiu: "Are you from the Zheng family in the north of the city?" ”

When Zheng Jiu heard the captain say this, he knew that there was a play, and said with a happy face: "If you go back to the military master, the villain is the servant of the Zheng family, and in the carriage is our young master's ......."

The lieutenant waved his hand impatiently, but he didn't see anyone coming down from the carriage, and his face immediately showed displeasure. Zheng Jiu observed the words, hurriedly ran to the carriage, and whispered to the woman inside: "Miss Li, get off the car, the military master in the city is here." ”

I only heard a delicate voice from inside the carriage: "What military master is not a military master?" Zheng Jiu, what's the matter with you? Why don't you go! I really regret taking you out, go back and tell your master that he won't let him skin you! ”

Zheng Jiu smiled bitterly and glanced at the captain, and when he saw that the other party had a gloomy expression, his heart sank, and he secretly said that it was not good.

The soldiers guarding the city were also surprised to see Su Yi and other more than ten horsemen, when Su Yi and others passed through the city gate before, they briefly checked, and the leading captain also got Su Yi ten taels of silver. For a few of them, these soldiers naturally recognized.

The lieutenant pressed his hand on the handle of the sword, and he was also hesitant, the other party's weapons and equipment were even better than theirs, and his identity was obviously not ordinary. The duty of these soldiers is to prevent thieves from infiltrating the city, and the law and order in this county town is not regulated by them.

With the intervention of the soldiers defending the city, Zheng Jiu also had some confidence.

Zheng Jiu pointed at Su Yi and said to the captain: "Master Jun, this person is a thief, he shot and injured my companion when he stopped us to ask for money to buy the road, and threatened to kill them into the city to plunder, and asked Master Jun not to let them go." ”

At this time, the woman in the carriage also said sharply: "Zheng Jiu is right, this thief is going to take me up the mountain to blackmail Zheng Gongzi." ”

Even if Su Yi and the others are really officers and soldiers, Zheng Jiu has to say that they are thieves at this moment, as long as they are killed, even if the military investigates them, it can be inferred that this soldier is blocking the road and robbing them, and there is no proof of death anyway.

And his words were half-truths and half-truths, confident that he could fool these soldiers defending the city.

But the lieutenant looked at him with a strange gaze.

According to the captain's idea, if Su Yi's more than ten horsemen were really thieves, how could he swagger to the county seat on a military horse and purchase a large number of New Year's goods. Most of these people are border soldiers, taking advantage of the Chinese New Year to purchase New Year's goods and return to their hometowns to visit relatives.

The servant who stopped the Zheng family asked for money to buy the road? And at the gate of the city, is there such a stupid person in the world? Besides, Su Yi had bribed him with ten taels of silver before, and Zheng Jiu's words were simply ridiculous in the eyes of the school captain.

After some thought, the lieutenant had a plan in his heart, and he did not intend to meddle in these matters.

As long as this matter is characterized as an ordinary civil conflict, it has nothing to do with them, maintaining law and order in the county is the business of the fast arresters, they are only responsible for preventing thieves and displaced people from entering the city, and the rest will not be asked.

For the New Year, who doesn't want to worry about it, they still take care of the trivial things of your Zheng family's sesame mung beans.

The conflict between the servants of the Zheng family and Su Yi and others, he took a look at the city gate, if it weren't for Qian Leopard's arrow that injured the servants of the Zheng family, he wouldn't have bothered to take care of these at all.

At this time, the captain had not yet connected Su Yi with the thief.

Just when the two sides were stalemate, more than 50 cavalrymen rushed not far away, and these cavalrymen were none other than a group of bandits led down the mountain by Su Yi.

More than 50 cavalrymen formed a circle and surrounded Zheng Jiu and the soldiers defending the city.

The leading captain looked ugly and said, "Do you want to attack the county seat?" Aren't you afraid of violating military orders and being dealt with by military law? ”

These cavalrymen looked at him expressionlessly, pulled up the bows and arrows in their hands, where had Zheng Jiu seen this kind of battle, and hurriedly hid beside the captain.

When the captain saw Zheng Jiu, he was angry and said angrily: "If you hadn't been looking for trouble, would this kind of thing happen?" If something happens, even your master can't protect you. ”

This Zheng Jiu is powerful in the county on weekdays, and usually, he won't look at a character like the school captain. Now although he was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to show it, so he just promised: "Please also ask the military master to save me." ”

When things came to this point, everyone turned their eyes to Su Yi, and all the people present were human spirits, and they could see that Su Yi was the leader of this cavalry.

Su Yi looked at Zheng Jiu with an indifferent expression and said, "I said before that you can leave with twenty strokes of your own palm." ”

Zheng Jiu looked at the captain with a pleading gaze, who turned his head and pretended not to see it.

"The general." Su Yi turned over and dismounted, arched his hand to the lieutenant and said: "This is my personal grudge with the servants of the Zheng family, it has nothing to do with the general, below are the officers and soldiers of Liaodong, there are some things to deal with here, and there is absolutely no intention of attacking the county seat." ”

Seeing that Su Yi was true, the captain also nodded and said, "I know all this." He glanced at Zheng Jiu and whispered to Su Yi: "Your Excellency is good to vent your evil anger, there is no need to be serious with these minions, after all, this is Shangjun County, and I heard that the county order here has a different relationship with the head of the Zheng family." ”

Su Yi smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”

The lieutenant waved his hand and said: "Where am I a general, just a captain, you can call me Lu Feng, if you don't dislike it, you can also call Brother Lu." ”

With more than sixty well-equipped cavalrymen, this person's status in the army would not be lower than him at least, and Lu Feng naturally had no need to offend him for the sake of the Zheng family's servants.

"Brother Lu, this evil servant of the Zheng family first killed innocents indiscriminately, and then insulted my subordinates." A cold light flashed in Su Yi's eyes and said: "After that, I slandered that I was going to attack the county seat, if I just let him go, which of my subordinates will obey me in the future?" ”

Lu Feng nodded, waved his hand, and withdrew a group of soldiers.

Zheng Jiu dared to be angry at the moment, and the resentment in his eyes was even stronger.

"Ouch, what's going on?" Suddenly there was an exclamation at the city gate. Su Yi felt that this voice was somewhat familiar, and turned his head to look, only to see Wang Jin carrying a cart of firecrackers and gifts out of the city with some servants.

Seeing Su Yi, Wang Jin was also stunned, he looked at the tense appearance in the field, and asked suspiciously, "Why is General Han here?" Is this something going on? ”

"Do you recognize him?" Lu Feng's eyes were like knives, staring at Wang Jin and asking.
