Xiao Rui and his entourage walked out of Tanzhou City with a two-carriage of treasures, and hundreds of people looked sideways, but no one dared to block the road. Everyone didn't know Xiao Rui and the three, but some people recognized the fourth tiger in the mountains. Then there was shocking news in the city that the Tanzhou County Guard Xie Yuhou's Mansion was slaughtered, and the murderer was nowhere to be found.

Nowhere to be found? Needless to say? It must be the downhill tiger of the Five Tiger Village, has this Tanzhou changed the sky? The bandits entered the city and killed the local emperor? Killing people and seizing treasures in broad daylight, is there still a royal law?

The captain of the city defense army who had just exterminated the trapping horse village was sitting in the trapping horse village drinking tea, waiting for his men to count the spoils, although half of the thieves had escaped, but as long as the village was in hand and the silver was in hand.

"Report ...... Report! Oh no, there's something going on in the city! ”

A long trumpet sounded, and a herald galloped up the hill, but before he could dismount, he fell directly to the ground, and crawled to the side of the captain.

"Captain, it's not good, there are bandits sneaking into the city to make trouble, the county guard is ......"

Du Wei stood up suddenly, "What? Bandits enter the city to cause trouble? Don't they want to live? When did the bandits dare to enter the city blatantly? Say, "What's wrong with the county keeper?" ”

Although his face was angry, he couldn't help but feel weak in his heart, he led his troops out to suppress bandits, there were almost no soldiers available in the city, if there were really bandits, then ...... The consequences are unimaginable, if the above blames it, the first one will definitely be to investigate his failure to defend the city.

"Guarding him, he ...... He's dead. The entire county guard mansion was slaughtered, and no one survived. The bandits went out of the city with the treasures of the county guard's mansion in a grand manner, and some people saw that the downhill tigers of the Five Tiger Village were among them. ”

What???

How is this possible? How dare they?

Could it be that the tiger is turning away from the mountain and striking the west?

Du Wei suddenly had a very terrible guess, if this is really the case, then the matter of Tanzhou City is a big deal, not just as simple as bandits suppressing bandits, I am afraid that it is a premeditated rebellion.

"Report, it's not good, Lieutenant, we have searched all around, the stockade is empty, and there is no money and food at all."

"Impossible, they were beaten and fled by us, and they didn't have time to pack their bags and find their treasure trove?"

"I found it, but there was nothing left, and I could see that there were valuables inside, but all of them were removed."

……

It's over, the captain is full of frustration, and he sits down with a plop, a real hammer! was transferred from the mountain and calculated.

"Captain, should we quickly return to Tanzhou City? The county keeper is dead, this matter is too big, Tanzhou can't be left unattended. ”

As soon as his subordinates reminded him, the lieutenant came to his senses, and hurriedly got up and ordered: "Everyone gather, quickly go down the mountain and return to the city." ”

No one thought that a group of people in Trap Horse Village would resist for a morning like a simple show, and then retreat into the mountains in an orderly manner and return to the territory of Wuhu Village.

At this moment, Xiao Rui took the fourth child and others to walk on the rugged eighteen bends of the official road in Nanshan with treasures, which was so blatant and swaggering.

The fourth child asked puzzledly: "Master Hou, you have all entered the city, how can the corner horse and the others honestly listen to your arrangement and resist the Tanzhou city defense army?" ”

Xiao Rui smiled slightly: "It's very simple, just like for you, just one medicine per person." ”

Burst...... If the fourth child wants to vomit blood, I shouldn't have asked.

"Master Hou, if we move forward with such fanfare, will we meet the returning city defense army? If you are recognized......"

"Recognize?" Xiao Rui shook his head, "No, they don't know the three of us at all." It's you, you are a familiar face in Tanzhou City, and there are many people who know you. If you are recognized, let alone know us. ”

The fourth child's face was bitter, and his smile was more ugly than crying, "Master Hou, if you give me a good time, I don't have to wait for being recognized, and you will be involved." ”

Sell? You think too much, I'm not going to make a move for you, a bandit. Fang Er pursed his lips and said with a merciless blow.

Xiao Rui thought for a moment, "Fourth, you are a smart talent. And when you kill Xie Yuhou, I see that you still have a bit of righteousness, so it's not impossible to spare your life. ”

It's true?

The fourth child's heart was pounding with excitement, "Xie, thank you for your great kindness." The villain knows that it is not a pity to die for a sin, but if he can live, he will definitely change his past mistakes in the future, and make up for his mistakes by doing good deeds in the second half of his life, so as to repay the great kindness of the Hou Ye. ”

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't need to be flamboyant." Since you know that you don't regret dying, then Ben Hou won't spare you so easily. The death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped. Give you a chance to live, if you can grasp it, let you change your identity and live a new life, if you can't grasp it, then go to hell to find Lord Yama to repent, in short, you won't lose anything. ”

……

The fourth weak didn't dare to speak, and said in his heart, how can human life be counted by accounts?

"But according to the orders of the Hou Ye."

Xiao Rui's voice said firmly: "Ben Hou has made a plan, and it is bound to eradicate the ghosts and ghosts in Tanzhou. Whether it is officialdom or bandits in the mountains, they will not let go. The city of Tanzhou, which is beyond the reach of the imperial court and Lingnan, has become the cleanest and most peaceful pure land in the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop. ”

"Now, the officialdom has cut off the leading county guard, and the head of the city defense army has not been eliminated, and there are also some attached miscellaneous fish. Don't look at their power, but they are closest to the people, and they are more troubled than the county guards. ”

"It's simple in the mountains, the black blind man in the Black Wind Village, the corner horse in the Trap Horse Village, and the leaders of the Running Bull Village and the Black Dog Village have all been drugged by me, and I dare not disobey my orders. Today, I will take you to collect the Seven Wolf Mountain, Bali Fork, and Nine Ditches. ”

"In this way, the bandit forces of Nanshan Jiuzhai in the entire Tanzhou are all deployed by you."

Hiss......

Such a big deal? Roughly calculated, there are almost 2,000 people, right?

The fourth child was not carried away by such a big interest, but asked calmly: "Then what does the Hou Ye want the villain to do?" Did you lead your troops into the city and slaughter all the corrupt officials? ”

Xiao Rui sneered: "You are really bold, leading troops to directly attack the county town, then you are really a thief, and I can't save you." ”

Yes?

The fourth almost fell off his horse.

"You guessed right, Ben Hou really wants you to use the bandits to clean the Tanzhou officialdom. But not offensively, but defensively. We killed the county guard and a few corrupt officials today, and the captain of the city defense army can't escape the responsibility of a dereliction of duty, so in order to keep his hat, he will definitely lead troops to surround and suppress you. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain to the court. ”

"I want you to lead a group of bandits to resist desperately, and you can't surrender and escape."

Burst...... I see, this is to both of us lose, and it is better to die together! Hou Ye is worthy of being the god of killing in the Tang Dynasty, he is too ruthless.

"I'll give you two tasks, one of which is to kill Captain Nadu on the battlefield; Second, in the war, all the thieves of the other cottages were killed. ”

What???

The fourth child is about to cry, these two, no matter which one of them is impossible to complete, right? Master Hou, you give me a good time.

"If you can successfully complete these two tasks and survive successfully, then you go to Xiaojiazhuang in Chang'an to report, and Benhou will promise you a fortune." Xiao Rui added.

Yes?

The fourth child came to the spirit in an instant, following the wealth of the Hou Ye? What a godsend! Done!

His fists slammed into his chest, gritted his teeth and roared: "Master Hou, don't worry, the villain will fight to complete the task." ”

Xiao Rui smiled and nodded: "Okay, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, whether it can be done or not, it's up to you, you are a smart person, Ben Hou will not look at the wrong person." If you can't do it, hehe, then Benhou can only let the imperial court send someone to clean up Tanzhou. ”

"Let's go, I'll help you subdue all the bandits, and then we'll go south, you have to make plans."

As he was talking, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in front of him, and Fang Er said vigilantly: "Brother Xiao, it seems that there are soldiers and horses coming quickly." ”

The fourth child said worriedly: "It's the city defense army, it must be the city defense army, they have to march back to Tanzhou City in a hurry." ”
