Yuan Bin clasped his hands and shouted, "Drink", and hit Li Yang's back with all his strength, and there was a muffled sound of "bang", Li Yang's face was red, and his ears were red, and he screamed "Wow-ah", feeling that the flesh on his back seemed to be about to crack

"Bang" is another torture battle

Li Yang's eyes were red, his face was bruised, his muscles were tense, and he screamed "Ah", and there was a concentration pain in his back, and he felt that there was a layer of slimy things on his back

"Bang"

Li Yang's eyes were full of tears, his hands clenched "ah", and the moment he opened his mouth and screamed, the spit hung on his mouth like glue, and Gao Yuan and others saw Li Yang's back clothes bloody, and they closed their eyes and couldn't bear to look at it directly

"Bang-Bang-Bang"

Li Yang no longer felt any pain, only felt that his back was numb, and his vision gradually became a little blurred, his eyes became heavier and heavier, and he really wanted to close his eyes, and the clothes on his back had been torn by the torture

Wen An and Ji Fang were a little uneasy when they saw this situation on the side, and every time the torture battle hit Li Yang's back, the two couldn't help but close their eyes

"Bang-bang-bang..."

At this time, Li Yang looked at his eyes, his face was bloodless, and he looked like he was about to die, Li Yang's appearance looked like a weak scholar in the blink of an eye, and he was originally very white and clean, not to mention how scary it was to add bloodless white

There was a crisp sound of "bang" and "click", and this last blow interrupted the torture battle

Li Yang's hands trembled involuntarily, and he suddenly felt so tired and just wanted to close his eyes and sleep well, Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui hurriedly came to Li Yang when they saw this, raised their hands and patted Li Yang's face: You must not sleep, there are still many things waiting for our brothers to do in Alan County, and your two-room lady is still waiting for you to go back

Li Yang looked at Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui, although he was a little vague, but he could probably see the magnanimity of the two, and saw that the two of them kept opening their mouths and couldn't hear what they were talking about, even if they couldn't hear what they were saying, Li Yang probably guessed it, they were worried that if I closed my eyes, I might never be able to open them again

Li Yangmimi's eyes smiled slightly, and said with some difficulty: Brothers, help me up, I'm fine

Seeing this, Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui's eyes were full of tears, and the two raised their hands to wipe the tears on their eyes, and smiled in response, "Alas"

Ji Fang hugged his fist at Sun Yuanwu and saluted: Lord Sun's strict management of the army made Ji very impressed

Sun Yuanwu looked at Li Yang and took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at Wen An-Ji Fang and the others: Now that the whole thing has been figured out, the government that should be punished has also punished a few adults, and it is time to return to the country, and the mansion will not be far away

Wen An and Ji Fang saw that they had already issued an eviction order, so let's not be annoying, anyway, the purpose of our coming this time has been achieved, and we have taught Li Yang a lesson for Zhang Wenzheng

Seeing Wen An and them leaving, Sun Yuanwu looked at Li Yang with a worried look and said to Yuan Bin: Yuan Bin, why are you so heavy, it almost means something

Yuan Bin's face was innocent: My lord, you have wronged me, and there is a way in this punishment

A trace of doubt leaked from Sun Yuanwu's face: "Gross-then you come and listen."

Yuan Bin: There are three kinds of adult punishments, the first is the normal punishment, 20 fights down ordinary people keep a layer of skin and are not dead and crippled, the second is that it looks very hard in fact, it only hurts the skin and flesh and does not hurt the muscles and bones, as long as you recuperate well at home, there is basically no big problem, Li Yang is the second type, as for the third kind of hemp is that it looks very light, but it is actually a wound to the muscles and bones

Li Yang saluted Yuan Bin with some difficulty: Thank you Lord Yuan for your mercy

Sun Yuanwu: Okay, it's all injured like this, you quickly help him go back to rest

Li Yang looked up at Sun Yuanwu: The last general wants to ask for the official certificate of Taizhou to sell salt

Sun Yuanwu smiled slightly: Let's talk about this when you heal your injuries

Li Yang: General Long is waiting for you in Alan County

Long Chuan was very refreshing: Okay, let's make a decision

Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui helped Li Yang out of the state capital yamen, and when he walked, there would be a sharp pain in his back, "Oops" No, I can't walk, as soon as I walk, my back hurts intently

Plateau: "Oops", it looks like you can't ride that horse

Li Long was on the side: Why don't I hire a carriage nearby?

Yuankui: That's all it can be

Returning to the manor plateau, he and Yuan Kui helped Li Yang down from the carriage, Li Long and Li Hu opened the way in front of them in a hurry, "The young master is injured, hurry up and let go" After returning to the room, Song Shiting saw that Li Yang was helped back, and hurriedly stepped forward to take Li Yang, his back was slimy, and when she raised her hand, she saw that her hands were full of blood, "Wow, wow, woo, "Husband, why are you so seriously injured."

Li Yang raised his hand and wiped Song Shiting's little face: Madam, don't worry, I'm fine

Song Shiting looked at Li Yang with a pained face, stretched out her hands, and just wanted to take off her coat, there was a huge pain on her back, "Ah, no, the clothes may be stuck with the flesh and skin."

Heng Qi led Heng Yan in, and Heng Yan saw that Li Yang's back was already blurred: bring a pair of scissors

Song Shiting hurriedly found a pair of scissors in the room and handed them over, Heng Yan reached out and took the scissors, cut Li Yang's clothes open, leaving only the back piece: Is there any wine here

Li Song shouted softly: If you have a sister-in-law, I'll get it later

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out, and it didn't take long for him to run back with a jar of wine in his hand, panting and handing it over, Heng Yan reached out and took the wine jar, tore off the seal, and drank a big mouthful of "poof" and sprayed it on Li Yang's back

Li Yang raised his head and screamed "Ah"

Heng Yan kept patting Li Yang's back lightly with both hands: endure the pain now, and when the injury is healed, there will be no inflammation

After treating the wound, Heng Yan and Song Shiting glanced at each other, and the two twisted their heads to the side with a "hum", and Heng Yan got up and went back to her room

After breakfast in the early morning, Li Yang summoned the big guy to the conference hall, and today he specially invited the second uncle Li Jingfu and the third uncle Li Jinglin, Li Pingping helped Li Yang to walk in slowly, and when he saw the second uncle and the third uncle, he hugged his fists and saluted: The nephew has seen the two uncles

The third uncle responded: Nephew, don't be so outside, is there something wrong with me and your second uncle coming today

Li Pingping helped Li Yang to the chair and sat down: Second Uncle-Third Uncle asked you to come here today to ask you two to help take care of some things

The second uncle responded: "Big nephew, why did you suddenly think of us two old guys."

Third Uncle: Second brother, what are you talking about, Li Yang, what do you want me to take care of with your second uncle?

Li Yang: Second uncle, I would like to ask you to help take care of the brick-burning workshop, and ask the third uncle to help take care of the salt fields

The third uncle responded: Second brother, it seems that our two old guys can also come in handy, nephew, you can rest assured that you can leave this matter to your second uncle and third uncle, and I will definitely do my best to take care of the brick-burning workshop and salt pan

Li Song was a little panicked when he heard this: Boss, what will I do in the future

Li Yang smiled slightly: After the second child, you will be in charge of these shops in Alan County, you have to think of a way to make these shops operate as soon as possible, Alan County should not only pay attention to construction but also pay attention to the economy, and the burden on your shoulders is not light

Li Song responded: Boss, then I'll give it a try

Li Yang thought for a while: Kang Ze Ze Nuo, you two handfuls of hidden goods come back, 210 two carriages and 435 mules will be distributed according to ten thousand households, these domestic animals must be raised and bred well, and you must not be good at killing and eating meat

A family member came to report: There is a Longchuan general outside the young master's manor who wants to see you

Li Yang hurriedly got up: Hurry up, please

Before Long Chuan came in, Li Yang got up to greet him, and when he saw Long Chuan, he enthusiastically stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please: General Long Chuan, please come in

Back in the conference hall, Li Yang looked at Long Chuan with a smile: General Long will introduce you to the generals who are currently in charge of the sailors, this is my eldest brother Hengqi, these people next to the banner are Kangze-Zeno-Yuwenzhi, and they will cooperate with you to train the sailors

Long Chuan responded: Okay, you guys will take me to the sailors' camp to have a look

Hengqi: General Long, then we'll take you there now

A few days later, Li Yang felt that his back was a little stiff and very prickly, and he couldn't help but always want to scratch it with his hands, washed himself, changed into clean clothes, walked out of the door, and rode to Taizhou City with Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui

When they arrived at the inner hall of the state capital, it happened that Yuan Bin was also there, and Li Yang and the others hugged their fists and bowed: The last general and others have seen the two adults

Sun Yuanwu is in a good mood today: find a place to sit by yourself, what do you want to toss when you come today

Li Yang looked respectful: The last general came today to ask for an official certificate to sell salt

Sun Yuanwu gasped when he heard this: Li Yang, you don't know that the Zhang family monopolizes private salt because they have backers in the national capital, and this government has been an official for many years, and knows that private salt is intertwined and involved in high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and this government advises you not to go to this troubled water

Li Yang responded: Your Excellency will dare to ask the Zhang family how much tax they can pay in a year for selling illicit salt

Sun Yuanwu calculated: I can probably pay about 10,000 silver coins a year

Li Yang responded: My lord's annual tax in Taizhou is only around 210,000 silver coins, and the 30,000 defenders in Taizhou cannot receive full pay throughout the year

Sun Yuanwu and Yuan Bin were extremely surprised when they heard it, they couldn't believe that their ears had heard it wrong just now, 100,000 silver coins This is half of Taizhou's taxes, which makes Sun Yuanwu really fall into a dilemma, if he agrees, it means that he will offend some dignitaries, if he disagrees, this is 100,000 silver coins, and he also hopes that these brothers under his command can be paid a full salary for either side

Sun Yuanwu looked puzzled: Li Yang, why do you dare to take care of it so much

Li Yang: There are nearly 400,000 people under the rule of Taizhou, and they have to consume about 400,000 catties of refined salt every month, and there are 16,000 silver coins in a month

Sun Yuanwu looked at Li Yang and took a deep breath: This matter has to be thought about carefully, and I will give you an answer in a few days, how many salt fields have you mined now, and how much salt you produce in a month

Li Yang: At the end of the year, there will be 1,000 acres of salt pans, which can produce more than 600,000 catties of refined salt every month, and there are about 1,000 craftsmen

When Sun Yuanwu heard this: Li Yang, you can't leave a handle on this matter, even if you are a member of an official family, you have to pay taxes if you mine the salt field, and one mu of salt field will be counted as 10 silver coins

Li Yang: Your Excellency and other officials will send someone to deliver 10,000 silver coins at the end of the delegation

Yuan Bin on the side: My lord, I think this is feasible

Sun Yuanwu sighed lightly: Li Yang, you should go back first today

Li Yang and others bowed: The last general will retire

A few days later, in a very gorgeous brothel in Yufeng City, the national capital, Ji Fang knelt respectfully outside a side room, and several black figures were reflected in the candlelight of the doors and windows: The Li family in Alan County, Taizhou, Huaye, is going to replace the Zhang family to sell salt, he wants to cut off our financial route, if we continue to let it go, I am afraid that sooner or later it will be a big mistake

Hua Ye: Is it also the Li family who saved the gang of Hengqi in Maple Village?

Ji Fang responded: That's right, it's this Li family, this time the subordinates went to Taizhou to find out about Hengqi, and they are now in Alan County

The black shadow on the side stood up: Hua Ye, then send the murderer to Taizhou

Hua Ye: Kill the entire Li clan and Hengqi, and don't leave any of them

Dark Shadow: Yes

Ji Fang raised his head slightly, only to hear the sound of "whoosh", and the black shadow disappeared without a trace

The night of this day is exceptionally clear, a full moon hangs in the air, the stars in the sky are shining, there is a way that is "the night of the moon is dark and kills - the wind is high and the day of fire" More than 200 people in black wearing hats stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the mountain down the mountain

With a scream of "ah", Li Yang woke up from his sleep and immediately reached out to grab the steel knife, and looked at Song Shiting with a panicked face: Madame close the door and find a place to hide, no matter what happens, don't come out

Song Shiting nodded slightly, "Hmm"

Li Yang took out the steel knife and rushed out, and saw that Jiang Yu was holding a long sword in his hand, surrounded by dozens of black-clothed people, and there were six or seven black-clothed corpses lying on the ground: Jiang Yu, what are these people

Jiang Yu turned around: I don't know, but you have to be careful that these people are very strong

Li Yang shouted loudly: "Someone, an assassin has infiltrated the manor."

Jiang Yu shouted softly: Be careful

After speaking, he jumped and rushed forward with a long sword in his hand, Jiang Yu and the people in black shuttled in mid-air, and the swords collided together, sparks splashed, after Jiang Yu landed, the bodies of the four men in black fell, and a man in black clenched the steel knife with both hands and slashed at him, Jiang Yu flashed and waved the long sword in his hand, and a blood splashed out of the head of a man in black and fell to the ground over

The three men in black swung their knives at Li Yang and slashed over, Li Yang waved the steel knife in his hand left and right to defend, the man in black kicked Li Yang out with a fierce kick, and the three men in black immediately stepped forward and slashed at Li Yang with a knife, Li Yang saw that he rolled on the ground a few times, and a carp stood up from the ground

At this time, Heng Yan kicked open the door and rushed out, holding the long sword with both hands, and slashed towards the man in black with all his strength, the man in black set up the long sword with both hands to defend, "bang" There was a crisp sound "poof", a stream of blood spurted out, and the long sword in the hand of the man in black was cut off by Heng Yan with brute force

Li Long and Li Hu led the soldiers with torches and blades to rush over and fight with the man in black, Li Pingping held an iron shield in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand to open the way in front: Big brother, don't be afraid that we are coming

After speaking, Li Pingping rushed over with all his strength like a bull, knocked several black-clothed people head-on, and "Drink", smashed the black-clothed man's head with a hammer, and killed him on the spot

Gongs rang out in the manor and in Alan County, and several soldiers shouted in the manor and Alan County, respectively: Oh no, an assassin has infiltrated Alan County

The men in black were all martial and strong, and after only a few moments, dozens of soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and the men in black were also very good at fighting, some of them blocked the attack outside, and the rest shot the soldiers in the middle with crossbow arrows

Li Yang saw that he shouted after that: These people are all martial and strong, don't step forward easily, where is the shield hand to surround them with a shield

At this moment, the man in black aimed the crossbow arrow at Li Yang with a "whoosh", and the crossbow arrow shot out quickly, and before Li Yang could react, he only felt a huge pain in his left shoulder, and looked down to see that the crossbow arrow had shot through his left shoulder

Li Long looked at it and shouted: Quickly protect the young master

More and more soldiers rushed in, and Heng Yan waved his long sword and rushed over to support Li Yang: Husband, you are injured

Li Yang hugged Hengyan in his arms: Madam, be careful, this is too dangerous, you quickly find a place to hide

After saying that, he turned around and knocked on the door: Madame, open the door quickly

Song Shiting opened the door, and Li Yang pushed Hengyan in: close the door and find a place to hide

Li Hu shouted: The shield stepped forward

The soldiers "drank" and surrounded the man in black with their shields

Li Pingping roared angrily, "Oh", and swung his right hand outward with all his might, and the three black people were knocked out by brute force, "Drink", jumped up, and swung the hammer and smashed it on the man in black

The two black-clothed men raised the steel knife and rushed towards Li Yang, Li Yang shouted, "Bloody Battle Field", holding the steel knife with both hands, rushed forward, a 360-degree rotation, a knife flash flashed, "poof", a stream of blood spurted out, and the two heads rolled and fell to the ground

Li Yang grabbed the steel knife with one hand, ran forward quickly, jumped forward, leaned forward and slashed the steel knife in his hand, and when he passed by the man in black, "poof" blood splashed everywhere, and his head rolled to the ground

"The Wind Sweeps the Fallen Leaves" squatted down with a 360-degree whirlwind sweeping leg, and after getting up, he clenched the steel knife with both hands and continued to slash in all directions

Li Long shouted: The pikemen stepped forward

The pikemen clasped their hands and the steel guns in their hands "Drink" and stood behind the shield wall, forming an iron shield wall

Gao Yuan rushed in with nearly a hundred archers: the archers released their arrows

There were only more than a dozen black-clothed people left in the encirclement, and Li Yang looked at it and shouted lightly: Leave a few alive to find out who instructed them

The black-clothed people in the encirclement looked at each other and nodded, only to see them pick up the steel knife and wave it on their necks and fall into a pool of blood, and everyone present was very surprised to see this scene, who the hell are these

Li Pingping rushed over and threw the shield and hammer to the ground: Big brother, you are injured

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the crossbow arrow on Li Yang's shoulder and was about to pull it out, but Gao Yuan saw it and hurriedly rushed over and shouted: Can't pull it out

Li Long and Li Hu also surrounded them

Li Yang looked around: Why didn't you see Yuan Kui and Hengqi

The plateau is on the side: they are taking their brothers to hunt down the men in black on the outskirts of the manor

Li Yang responded: Then you don't care about me, hurry up and bring someone to help them, be careful that these black-clothed people are all martial and strong

Li Yang dragged a chair in the middle of the courtyard and sat on it, and slammed the steel knife to the ground with his right hand

Gao Yuan: Li Pingping and I are guarding here, and Li Long-Li Hu and you will take your brothers to help Yuan Kui and them

Li Yang looked at Jiang Yu: Jiang Yu, you can go too

The fight with the man in black lasted until dawn, Yuan Kui rushed over with his brothers, and saw that Li Yang was injured and all of them surrounded him, Yuan Kui held the crossbow arrow on Li Yang's shoulder with both hands and nodded to Gao Yuan, Gao Yuan slashed the steel knife with both hands to cut off the crossbow arrow, Yuan Kui pulled the crossbow arrow out with both hands, and Li Yang screamed "Ah".

Li Long put a jar of wine on Li Yang's mouth, "Goo Dong-Goo Dong" poured down, and then he drank a big mouthful of "poof" and sprayed it on the wound, Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui put the steel knife on the torch and burned red, Da Niu and Er Niu immediately stepped forward and pressed Li Yang with all their strength when they saw it, and the red-hot steel knife pressed Li Yang's wound, "Eat, eat", Li Yang's face was flushed, his eyes were angry, and he screamed, "Ah", his feet went straight to the ground

Li Yang looked listless: How many people have we hurt

Gao Yuan sighed lightly: 116 soldiers were killed, 301 were wounded, and 201 black-clad assassins were killed

Li Yang heard it: More than 2,000 people surrounded and suppressed 200 casualties, and the casualties were still so large, so did there leave a living mouth?

Yuan Kui looked at Li Yang and took a deep breath: Even if he catches the mouth, he can't ask anything

Li Yang looked puzzled: Why

Yuan Kui: These men in black have all had their tongues cut out, and once they are at a disadvantage, they will immediately wield knives and kill themselves, who the hell are these people and why did they come to assassinate you?

Li Yang: I don't know about this, don't there be any clues on these people?

Guanshan: It is not an idle person to be able to train such a dead soldier

Gao Yuan thought for a moment: these people have a common characteristic, that is, there is a chrysanthemum on the back of his left hand, and a scorpion is lying on it

When Heng Qi heard this, a trace of fear leaked from his face, so he ran towards the body of the man in black, picked up the left hand of the man in black and took a closer look, Heng Qi leaned back and sat on the ground

Li Yang: What's wrong with you, uncle?

Hengqi closed his eyes and took a deep breath: I have seen this chrysanthemum, these people were sent by Hua Ye to kill us, yes, Hua Ye must be afraid that things will fall and send them to kill people, Li Yang is we are tired of you

When Li Yang heard this, he got up suddenly: Plateau-Yuankui-Li Long-Hengqi listened to the order and ordered you to gather all the soldiers and horses to set up checkpoints on the main roads leading to the state passes, and strictly inspect the passers-by

Gao Yuan and the others knelt on one knee and clasped their fists to salute: the last general waited for the order

Li Yang: Da Niu-Er Niu loaded all these black-clothed corpses into the carriage, and brought all the private salt of the Zhang family, you and I will go to Chuzhou with me, and Jiang Yu and I will leave the safety of all ages to you

Jiang Yu stretched lazily: Don't worry, they will be fine with me

Li Yang took 300 soldiers and drove 200 carriages for a day to the Chuzhou camp, and several soldiers stepped forward to interrogate: The idle people in the barracks left as soon as possible

Li Yang dismounted and hugged his fists to salute: Li Yang was guarding in the northern part of Xiataizhou, and he had an important matter to ask for a meeting with the general, and I bothered you to report it

The armor soldier looked Li Yang up and down, glancing at the carriage behind him: Then you can wait here

After a while, Sergeant A ran out of the camp and panted: The general is invited, please come with me

The soldier took Li Yang and the carriage to the camp tent of the general Lei Cai, Li Yang knelt on one knee and clasped his fists to salute: Li Yang, the last general of the northern garrison of Taizhou, visited the general

Lei Qi lifted the curtain and walked out: Get up, why do you have time to see General Ben

Li Yang bowed: The general came back at the end and brought 300,000 catties of salt to the general

Lei Qi was very happy when he heard it: It's rare that you still think about General Ben, don't tell you that the most lacking thing in the army now is salt, I don't know what happened this year, the price of salt has skyrocketed several times, okay, don't stand outside, what do you have to say inside

Li Yang hurriedly went to Lei Qi's side and whispered: The general's mysterious organization "Hua Ye" has finally started, more than 200 assassins came to assassinate the last general last night, but they have all been killed by the soldiers under his command, the bodies of these assassins are in those carriages, and the assassins have a common feature with a chrysanthemum on the back of their hands and a scorpion on their stomachs

Lei Qi listened: There is such a thing, you can take me to see

Li Yang asked the soldiers to remove the corpses from the carriage and put them on the ground, Lei Qi stepped forward and looked at Li Yang with an incredulous expression: I don't know if your kid's life is big, or the punishment is as big as before

Li Yang looked puzzled: General, do you know these assassins

Lei Qi: I should have thought of it a long time ago, but I didn't expect them to still exist, this mysterious organization is called "Flower Scorpion", and these assassins are the strongest killers "Punish the Murderer"

Li Yang: General, do you know the "flower scorpion"

Lei Qi nodded: This matter starts from when my royal brother ascended the throne 15 years ago
