Chapter Eighty-Nine: Coercion and Blackmail (Asking for Recommendation)

When Wang Erscar led a regiment to clean up the battlefield and at the same time treat the two soldiers who were injured just now, Xu Bin, who was far away in Orange City. Looking at the local tyrants and inferior gentry of Orange City who were caught in the room, as well as the county magistrate who had aged a lot after waking up, a smile appeared on the corner of his face and said, "Everyone, I didn't think we would meet in this situation, right?" Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, Xu Bin, the leader of the contemptible Xu Jiajun. I'm sure you should know by now what will happen to you, right?

In addition, I forgot to tell you one thing, at this time, the army you sent to Baofeng Town was almost wiped out if nothing else. Then shouldn't we talk about how to deal with the losses you caused to Xu Jiajun? ”

Hearing that this young man sitting on the chair of the Supreme Master of Zhengtang County was the leader of the Xu family's army, the local tyrants and inferior gentry present were all shocked, as if they were shocked by Xu Bin's age. I have always heard that the strength of the Xu family army is very strong, but I didn't expect such a powerful bandit force to be so young.

As the most noble county magistrate of Juxiangcheng in this group of captives, he seemed to be a little strong and capable: "Do you know what it is to attack the county seat? You're rebelling, you know? When the prefect and the governor hear the news of your attack on the county seat, they will definitely send a stronger army to destroy you. You don't have to be too arrogant!

If you are to restrain yourself from the precipice now, maybe we can say something good to you for the sake of everyone belonging to the same city. From now on, everyone's well water will not interfere with the river water, and we will not interfere more in the matter of Baofeng Town and the joint defense team. Isn't that what you Xu Jiajun want? Don't hurt the harmony between us for the sake of momentary anger! ”

The county magistrate who pretended to have a 'I'm all for your good' expression persuaded some officials. In this regard, Xu Bin sneered: "Do you think I look like a fool? Just an empty promise, and they want me to spit out what I have in my hands. Daydreaming!

To tell you the truth, from now on I will settle the blood debt owed to the common people on each of you, and I am sorry to commit many crimes, and I will directly drag you to the execution ground in the city and shoot you. Of course, if you are still a little humane and willing to pay enough atonement money, I can give you an extra way to live and send you to live in a city outside of Orange City.

If you feel that you would rather die than keep your money, then rest assured. I'll let you try what it's like to be tortured into the hands of bandits. If you want to die happily and comfortably, or if you want to keep a whole corpse, you can pay money to atone for your sins. Don't think I don't know how much you have, and if you want to fool me, you're still tender.

From now on, give you a pillar of incense and write a penance for yourself. Honestly, I may be able to leave you some extra money and let you go somewhere else to be a little rich man, and it's still no problem. If you are not honest, just pull it out and shoot it! ”

Just when Xu Bin coerced and intimidated these corrupt officials, local tyrants and shoddy gentry, and wanted to squeeze out their Zuihou a piece of Longyang, these people staying in the house were still hesitating. An officer from a guard company suddenly came in and said, "Brigade commander, Commander Wang sent someone to deliver the news that the battle of Baofeng Town has ended. Our army wiped out nearly 300 officers and soldiers, and the rest of the officers and soldiers and materials were all confiscated.

All the soldiers of the coalition army did not flee with their families, and the commander of the city defense battalion who killed the old boss was also caught red-handed. Now the head of the king is sending troops to the city to wait for your disposal. In addition, Commander Wang asked me to ask you, how to deal with these captives? ”

The officer's sudden inventional report on the military situation undoubtedly dispelled the illusion that the coalition army would return to the city in victory. In particular, several corrupt officials who were familiar with the military system were even more frightened to forget their surprise when they learned that the strength of the Xu family's army had reached two regiments.

Who would have known that the Xu Jiajun, who had always been mistaken for only a few hundred in number, would develop the size of the army to two regiments in such a short period of time. This speed of expansion is scary to think about!

The officer was instructed to give an order to Wang Erscar to send all the lightly and seriously wounded to the hospital in Baofeng Town for treatment, and the captured wounded were to be guarded by soldiers until they waited for the next step of treatment. The rest of the captives who were in good physical condition were all escorted to Heifeng Village to be dealt with.

Looking at the officer of the guard company who left with his own order, Xu Bin sneered: "How about it, I didn't lie to you, right?" As I said, as far as you rabble, it is really wishful thinking to find trouble with Xu Jiajun. If it weren't for my honesty, I didn't want to make too much of a mess, and with the strength of my Xu family's army, I was afraid that it would be enough to attack the Linzhou Mansion.

Don't expect the prefect to send troops to save you, as for the army at the governor's disposal is now happily resisting the armies of the other provinces! If you are obedient and honestly cooperate with the payment of money to atone for your sins according to my instructions, maybe I can make some of you die happily, and some of you can use some of your old money to go to other places or live in Orange City honestly.

I'll just say this once, start the timer now, and wait until then those who don't write down the money for their sins or deliberately conceal their family property will be pulled out and shot. I see how many of you want money and don't want to die! ”

Leaving this behind, Xu Bin asked the detained officers to hand them a pen and paper, except for some corrupt officials and landlords who had been raided, and they had to write down the concealed family property. The rest of the landlords who have not yet raided their homes must even collect all their land deeds. This is related to the most important thing for the Xu family army to rule Juxiang City in the future and appease the people under their rule and get their support.

Watching Xu Bin leave, these soldiers with guns also raised their heads and chests, ignoring the bitter expressions on the faces of these landlords. In the end, a landlord who was afraid of death could not withstand this invisible pressure and wrote all his property. and said that as long as he and his family were spared, he could hand over all the family property and land deeds and even the house in the town below to Xu Jiajun.

Xu Bin, who happened to come in, saw this scene and quickly announced that the landlord, who was not far from Orange City, could be acquitted. At the same time, in view of the fact that he was the first to take the initiative to cooperate with Xu Jiajun's raid work, Xu Bin also promised to return an additional one-tenth of the other party's family property when escorting their family away.

In this regard, the landlord, who was still bitter just now, heard that while picking up a small life, he also got nearly 20,000 pieces of Long Yang's family property, and immediately thanked Xu Bin as a benefactor. Not having this money at all was originally his feeling!

With the cooperation of this landlord, the rest of the landlords who were also afraid of death did not dare to hide anything. He quickly wrote down all the property he owned, and said that like the landlord who was taken away by the soldiers just now, he didn't want a house or field in the countryside, and only hoped that when he left Orange City, he could get some of the money they would pay for settling in other places. In this regard, Xu Bin naturally did not favor one over the other, and agreed to all of them and sent troops to collect their property and send troops to send them away.

Until Zuihou was still a little unwilling corrupt officials and landlords, when he was still hesitating, Xu Bin brought out the county magistrate who was bound to kill. looked at the county magistrate who hadn't written anything, and said with a sneer: "It seems that our county lord really wants money and doesn't want to die!" It doesn't matter, I see how long you can stand up, I have heard that since you took office, this little concubine has married more than ten people, and she will inherit the family in order to have a son.

If my news is correct, your seventh concubine seems to have added a son to you last month, right? I don't know, do you think this money is important, or is it your old son who is important?

Don't look at me like that, you must know that Lao Tzu is a bandit, and we will be very kind to obedient people. For those who are disobedient, we will let him know what it means to be a ruthless bandit. Now tell me, do you want money or a son?

In addition, the concubine you married before gave birth to many daughters for you, and I heard that the eldest ones are all married, and the younger ones are not married. How about I find you a few cheap sons-in-law in my brother? ”

Looking at the words that were enough to collapse with a smile on his face, the old county magistrate finally sighed and said, "I will pay the money, but you are not allowed to hurt my son and daughter." If you dare to speak, I swear that I will haunt you even if I die, and I will make you unpeaceful in your life. ”

Regarding this threat, Xu Bin said very calmly: "It's okay, I am destined to kill people in this life, and I am not afraid of you being entangled by one more evil ghost." Although Lao Tzu's background is not very good, he also knows that men talk and make promises. As long as you hand over the money you have embezzled over the years.

I promise that when you die, I will send your concubines away with your children, and I will give them a fortune that will last a lifetime. Of course, it is impossible to eat and dress all day, but the money for coarse tea and light rice every day is still enough. Moreover, they are all human beings, and they should not sit on the empty side of the mountain but should rely on their hands to earn wealth.

Forget it, it's useless to talk to people like you, you just need to know. If you don't pay the money, I will kill all your family, and I will only kill you if you pay the money. Choose that one, and be happy! ”

In the face of this threat of extermination, this county lord who originally wanted to sell his old and leave a huge fortune for his family, finally inevitably filled in the family property. Seeing the huge wealth of nearly two million, Xu Bin knew that this big fish had finally been fished. When the soldiers took the old county magistrate away to confiscate the property, they looked at the group of people who were still resisting.

This time, there was no need for him to name them one by one, there was the example of the old county magistrate, and the crowd with the majority of these officials quickly reported the money for atonement. When Zuihou Xu Bin counted it, the number that shocked him appeared.

Just the local tyrants and corrupt officials who are blocked in the city by him today, excluding those fixed real estate, the money bills stored in various banks and money banks and the wealth confiscated from the family alone exceed 10 million Long Yang.

Rich! These people are so rich! Looking at the numbers, Xu Bin couldn't help but shout in his heart with a smile!
