Chapter 103: News of the Regiment Training Envoy
"Presumptuous! Ding Li! The furious Cao Si couldn't vent his anger at Tian Xiangwen, so he had to turn the spearhead at Ding Li, and the Tang knife in his hand was raised, pointing directly at the people behind Ding Li who were ready to save people: "The matter has come to this!" You're only going to have to come in! Do you say you will leave? β
"Gather the brothers, no matter what you want today, you can't let Ding Li escape!" As he spoke, Cao Si turned his head and ordered loudly at his subordinates outside the door behind him, but before the words fell, his body shook violently, and his eyes looked straight out of the door.
"What? Could it be that you still want to gather a crowd to rebel? A leisurely voice attracted the attention of everyone present, this time Cao Si was not the only one who was surprised, everyone was stunned, and the one who appeared outside the door was Yang Hongwen, who returned to Guangzhou with Ding Li early in the morning, at this time it was still the suit of armor when he returned to the city, but the bandaging on the original body seemed to have been re-processed, and behind him, there was a small team of well-equipped Jiedu Mansion guards, although the number was not large, but it was enough to shock the audience.
"Yang, Yang Hongwen." Tian Xiangwen was the first to react, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, his gaze at Yang Hongwen was extremely complicated, he groaned slightly, raised his feet and walked towards the door, and explained softly with an indifferent face: "I came in by the way to take a look, there is still something in the house, I will leave first, Brother Jingyi!" β
Saying that, when he walked in front of Yang Hongwen, Tian Xiangwen still arched his hand towards the other party in a similar manner, while Yang Hongwen smiled slightly, also bowed back, and responded indifferently: "Brother Tian is polite, I am on business, I will not send it away!" β
Seeing this, Tian Luo, who was hiding in the corner of the room, hurriedly caught up with his master, and went all the way with his waist down, not even daring to look up to see everything around him, until he left the musical instrument store behind Tian Xiangwen, he slowly straightened up, constantly gasping, but he didn't forget to come to the master to look at the injury: "Young master, you are injured. . . β
"Rubbish! Go home! Tian Xiangwen didn't have much anger at Tian Luo's performance just now, although his henchman didn't have any skills, the best thing was that he was loyal to himself, which also made Tian Xiangwen more content, just reached out and slapped the other party's head, scolded in a low voice, and left quickly.
Watching the smart Tian Xiangwen leave, Yang Hongwen sneered in his heart, the reason why he didn't stop the other party was that Yang Hongwen didn't want to make trouble for both parties, even if he detained the other party, he didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary, and in the end, it was inevitable that Tian Gaolang, the envoy of the city, would use this as an excuse to make some tricks behind his back and bring some unnecessary trouble, it was better to turn a blind eye directly.
"Cao Si, what's the matter? Do you still want to stay here? Seeing that the Cao family's people were still in the room, and even still had a posture of doing it at any time, Yang Hongwen took two steps forward, pressed his right hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist, and asked the other party in a cold tone: "And Cao Chen, are you waiting for a helper outside?" Or do you want these brothers behind me to send you away? Or do you want to wait for your master, Young Master Cao, to come forward to pick you up and take you home? β
This question is very connotative, completely informing Cao Si and Cao Chen that they are already turtles in the urn now, not to mention the extravagant hope that the men who are ambushed outside will help, and they also warn the two that if they don't know each other again, the guards of the Jiedu Mansion behind Yang Hongwen will have to do it.
Cao Si glared at Yang Hongwen who was killed halfway viciously, and was extremely angry that the other party had ruined his good deeds, but Cao Chen was a good man who didn't eat the loss in front of him, and grabbed Cao Si, who was about to move, and then hugged Yang Hongwen hard, and said with a face full of unwillingness but still clearly: "Don't dare to bother General Yang!" β
After that, Cao Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed Cao Si's arm and was about to leave, but Ding Li behind him suddenly shouted: "You two, wait!" β
The voice was very flat, but Cao Chen and Cao Si listened to it in their ears, but it was extremely cold, the two of them were more like they were frozen, and their movements were extremely slow, and then what they saw was Ding Li's iron-blue face that was almost covered by frost.
"I'll give you three days to prepare!" Ding Li clearly saw the trace of panic in the eyes of the two, and he could feel the discomfort of the two at this time, when he spoke, the corners of Ding Li's mouth rose slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he told the two of them with 'kindness': "Either get out of Guangzhou City, or wait for me!" β
"Arrogance! What do you think Guangzhou City is? You.. Even though Cao Sidang couldn't help but jump to his feet and scold, he was stopped by Cao Chen as soon as the words came out, and he struggled a few times and finally had to give up, but then Cao Chen threw a look at Ding Li without showing weakness, and responded to the threat with a sneer: "If you have a kind, you will come!" Waiting for you at any time! β
After that, Cao Chen raised his eyebrows at Ding Li with a provocative face, but when he turned around, he was stopped by Ding Li again, only to see that Ding Li didn't look at the other party at all, and his attitude was extremely contemptuous: "Cao Chen, your two good brothers will find you to drink tea with tonight!" Also, I don't have to waste any more effort to arrange manpower, I'm a little worried that Cao's money is not enough to hire people! The seventeen people today will be returned to you as they are, see you tomorrow, and wait to go to the dock to collect the corpses! β
Originally, Cao Chen was still a little unimpressed, thinking that Ding Li was scaring himself, but when Cao Chen, who turned around and left, heard the seventeen people in the last sentence of Ding Li's mouth, his body shook significantly, and the people who were arranged to watch near Ding's Mansion were all arranged by Cao Chen himself, a full seventeen. Since Ding Li said the actual number, Cao Chen didn't think that Ding Li was right, but in front of everyone, he was afraid of destroying his prestige, so he had no choice but to snort coldly, no longer say more, and pulled Cao Si to leave directly.
"Wait, wait!" Although Yang Hongwen dodged the passage of the store door sideways, he spoke to the two of them again a little lazily, and was interrupted continuously, almost making Cao Chen's nerves collapse, but this time it was Yang Hongwen who spoke, and no matter how much anger he had, he didn't dare to erupt casually, so he had to stand patiently, take a deep breath, and ask in a deep voice: "General Yang, is there anything else?" β
"These things on the ground, do you want the brothers behind me to help you clean up?" Yang Hongwen raised his head towards the people brought by Tian Xiangwen on the ground, and then slowly raised his arm and pointed to the mess around him, and continued to add: "There is also compensation for the damage here, I will send someone to check it tomorrow, got it?" β
"Got it!" Cao Chen felt extremely aggrieved in his heart at this moment, and a sense of humiliation that he had never felt before enveloped the whole person, but he still only dared to nod in agreement, and then shook his head at his subordinates, and Cao Si took the lead in leaving the musical instrument store.
"Send it back to the house first, and find the doctor quickly!" Seeing Tian Xiangwen and Cao Si and the others leaving one after another, Ding Li gave a deep command to a few brothers who were carrying Saidade and others, and then threw the blade in his hand to the subordinates behind him, walked quickly to Yang Hongwen, and gestured with a solemn face: "Brother Yang, these people are trying to rob Liu Sheng to threaten me, and even use this to plot against the Nanhai Gang and the Zhang Chamber of Commerce!" In the vicinity of my new house, I caught a total of seventeen suspicious people early this morning, and according to several of them, all of them were instructed by the Cao family to keep a close watch on everything! β
"Well, I see! Thank you! Yang Hongwen saw that Ding Li's eyes were still slightly swollen, and his face was a little apologetic, and then he frowned slightly, and told Ding Li in a deep voice: "Ah Li, don't act rashly in this matter for the time being, after I arrived at Jiedu Mansion this morning, I heard new news!" It's not too good for you, for righteousness, or even for me! β
"Huh? What news is so serious? Ding Li was also interested suddenly, and he really couldn't think of any news that could produce such a big series of negative reactions.
"The Cao Chamber of Commerce proposed to the imperial court a few days ago the matter of forming a militia group, and now, the appointment of the imperial court has come down, it is Liu Laosan of the Chaozhou Gang!" Yang Hongwen first looked around, and then lowered his voice to explain, and then after seeing Ding Li's surprised expression, he leaned forward half a step forward, lowered his voice and added: "But you don't have to worry too much, although this is personally appointed by the imperial court, it has not awarded Liu Lao Sanjing Festival!" Moreover, even so, Liu Laosan's current militia is only a local armed force, and it still cannot be compared with the regular army mastered by the Jiedu Envoy! β
"Understood." Ding Li nodded slowly, he knew that the original intention of forming the militia was to train a reserve army in advance to resist the rebel army that had begun to attack the Fujian region in the future, but Ding Li never thought that the regimental training envoy of the militia would be replaced by Liu Sanye of the Chaozhou Gang, after thinking about it, he still raised his inner doubts to Yang Hongwen: "Brother Yang, if Liu Sanye becomes a regimental training envoy, how big is his position and power?" β
"This, if you want to talk about the position, it stands to reason that at least it is a six-rank military attachΓ©! It's about the same as my current position! Yang Hongwen obviously had some disdain on his face when he talked about these, he had always been disgusted with Liu Sanye, and he was very dissatisfied that the other party was almost a person of the same class as himself in an instant, but then Yang Hongwen raised his hand and patted Ding Li's shoulder, and explained in a low voice: "But don't worry, even so, we will not let him expand his power, after all, he is a member of the Cao family, and even if it is the Cao family, he does not dare to sit back and watch Liu Sanye develop and grow the militia!" β
"That is, I got another puppet out, put on a layer of vigilante skin, and do evil everywhere!" Ding Li understood now, shook his head, and had a lot less worries in his heart, if Liu Sanye used the name of the militia to develop the power of the Chaozhou Gang, then the original intention of the establishment of the Nanhai Gang would definitely be hit and even subverted.
"That's understandable, but you still need to pay more attention! Especially when you have an intersection with the Teochew Gang in the future! Yang Hongwen nodded, and slowly shook his head, seeing that he was also worried about this, then sighed lightly, turned his eyes to look at Ding Li, and his tone became much more solemn: "Ah Li, Cao Si and Cao Chen, you can't move!" β
"Huh? Why? Hearing this, Ding Li was stunned, but he didn't expect Yang Hongwen to suddenly turn the topic to this, and looked at the other party in a daze, full of puzzlement.
"The dog jumps off the wall! Now is not the time! Yang Hongwen smiled slightly, but the bitterness at the corner of his mouth could be seen: "The Cao family is already in a hurry, but it has not yet reached the point of complete madness!" If Cao Si and Cao Chen have any more accidents, it is inevitable that Cao Xiangming will not do anything excessive! β
As he spoke, Yang Hongwen glanced at Ding Li meaningfully, and when he turned to leave, he dropped a word of advice: "Don't forget today's incident, continue to make trouble, I'm afraid that the first one to have an accident is Liu Sheng!" β
Suddenly realized, Ding Li suddenly understood Yang Hongwen's reminder, looking at Yang Hongwen's back, Ding Li's eyes narrowed slightly, pondered for a moment, and a fine light suddenly burst out.
