The grain collector surnamed Huang reacted quickly, hurriedly dismounted, and hurriedly saluted the people in front of him.

"There are a lot of lords, this time it is a small one who has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and offended the Marquis of Dongshan, and I hope that the lord will forgive us and let us go."

The posture of the grain collector surnamed Huang was very low, and he didn't ask the reason when he opened his mouth, and directly admitted his mistake and begged for mercy.

The man who was the leader of the people, raised his eyebrows, and put the big knife he snatched from the state soldiers directly on his neck, and said lightly.

"Yo, you're quite acquainted, but who told you that you offended the Marquis of Dongshan? Who is Dongshan Hou, and does it have anything to do with us?"

As soon as these words came out, the grain collector surnamed Huang was stunned, his eyes flashed, he raised his eyes to look at a large group of fierce and vicious people behind him, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's small nonsense, all of you are heroes of the green forest, this food will be given to you, and I hope you can spare your lives."

The man at the head of the people, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he said softly, "Hehe, I'm a smart person, uncle, I like to deal with smart people, it's good, your life has been saved."

"The surname Huang, you are crazy, where are they bandits, obviously Su Qi'an's people, who dare to injure the state soldiers in broad daylight, it is clear that they don't take the state pastor in their eyes, it can be regarded as a rebellion."

"I'm waiting for the dignified grain collector, it's the people of the state shepherd, you have no backbone at all, and you kneel down like this group of people, I despise you."

"You dare to grab food in public, you wait, the state pastor will not let you go, acquaintances, let us go, otherwise the state pastor will come in person, and he will definitely set foot in Qingcheng County, don't talk about you when the time comes, even Su Qi'an will not be able to escape."

The grain collector in the rear, watching his companion kneel down and beg for mercy, his eyes were full of contempt, and he even shouted frantically at the head of the people.

In the eyes of the grain collector surnamed Huang, I don't know how many times I scolded the fool in my heart.

At this time, I still want to threaten the state pastor, and I don't want to think about who this group of people is in front of me.

was able to take advantage of their conversation to capture five hundred state soldiers almost silently, and he didn't know what his identity was?

If it is useful to reveal his identity, he will kneel down and beg for mercy, the best way is to follow the words of the people, it is a group of bandits, and it has nothing to do with Su Qi'an.

Everything is to save his life, and this matter was originally passed by him, and then he just had to obey, and then let him go.

At this time, such a fool appeared, not only pointed out the identity of the other party, but also brazenly threatened the state pastor.

The status of the state pastor is indeed easy to use in Jiaozhou, but it does not mean that everyone will buy it.

The group of soldiers under Su Qi'an in front of him, who dared to pretend to be bandits, were already ready to kill people and cross goods.

Well, now this stupid companion of his, most of them is in a catastrophe, and the grain collector surnamed Huang only hopes in his heart that he will not endanger himself when he goes.

Sure enough, as soon as the grain collector finished speaking, a whip was thrown out and whipped on his body, and the next moment, the grain collector who was still shouting just now fell off the horse directly.

Immediately afterwards, seven or eight men stepped forward, holding large knives, turning the hilt, and slamming the shouting grain collector with the back of their knives.

Every time the knife fell, the grain collector wailed, he really didn't expect that this group of people would really do it to him.

"Yo, wasn't it quite tough just now? Why, now that you've been doing it a few times, you're just cowardly?"

"Brothers, they were all politely beaten by the uncle, so that these officials knew that no matter what dog things he had behind him, as long as he spoke wildly, he would have to pay the price."

Each time the back of the knife fell hard, it was whipped on the grain collector, and his body twisted and curled up like a shrimp.

At first, the mouth was still quite hard, and there were still all kinds of threats, but when the back of the knife was whipped on the body, it immediately softened, and the more fierce the scream, the more fierce the hit.

Soon, the cries were replaced by cries begging for mercy, but the movements in their hands did not stop, and after about half a cup of tea, the wailing and begging for mercy were silent, and if you looked closely, the man had already passed out.

The big man led by waved his hand, and his subordinates stopped, kicked the unconscious grain collector aside, and then headed towards the surname Huang

The grain collector walked away.

This scene made the grain collector surnamed Huang tremble in his heart, and hurriedly begged for mercy from the big man in front of him.

"Uncles spare their lives, the little ones didn't see anything, everything was bandits robbing food, we couldn't stop it, there were heavy casualties, and in the end only the little one escaped back."

As the footsteps got closer and closer, the grain collector surnamed Huang felt a wild beat in his heart, and finally his footsteps stopped, a hand on his shoulder, he slowly raised his head, and looked around.

The man who was whipped just now had already returned to the team, and the big man in front of him said with a smile.

"Remember what you just said, Uncle Ben has always been a man of words, as long as you cooperate obediently, your life will be saved."

"As for these people, Uncle Ben can let some people go back to you with you to cooperate with the authenticity of your grain collection this time, but how they are trained, there is no need for Uncle Ben to teach them."

"The little one understands, please rest assured, the little one must be trained to understand." The grain collector surnamed Huang kowtowed again and again to promise."

"Alright, you can take your people with you, get out."

As soon as these words came out, behind them, seven or eight state soldiers were singled out and kowtowed to the big man in front of them.

Came to the side of the grain collector surnamed Huang and helped him up, and then they got up, retreated step by step, and waited until they kept a distance of more than ten zhang, then turned around, and ran forward with their hands and feet, but after a while, they disappeared away.

"Brother Yong, just let them go like this? What if they go back and talk nonsense?" One worried.

Su Yong, who was the leader, shook his head, "This surnamed Huang is a smart person, he knows what to say, so as to save their lives to the greatest extent, if you don't cooperate with the anti-water, it doesn't matter, anyway, there are our people in the state city, and they won't be able to run if they want to."

The people behind him nodded, their eyes swept over, looked at the controlled state soldiers and asked, "Then what do they do?"

"Since I acted as a bandit this time, I will do all the plays, bring them all back, and use them as meat tickets, and send a letter to Li Kang when the time comes, saying that if you want your soldiers to live, you have to prepare silver, otherwise you will tear up the tickets."

Everyone behind him smiled and nodded, and then returned home with a cart of food and state soldiers.

And the grain collector surnamed Huang, who had escaped from Su Yong's sight for a short time, gasped for breath after making sure that there were no pursuers behind him.

"Lord Huang, do you really do what those people say? Isn't that a bit too embarrassing, what if the governor doesn't believe it?"

"Why don't we go back and tell the truth, let the state pastor send troops and set foot in Qingcheng County, so that at least we can breathe a sigh of relief."

At his suggestion, the grain collector surnamed Huang snorted coldly and said coldly, "Angry? If we tell the truth, I'm afraid we will all die."

"What kind of character is the state pastor, you don't know? Five hundred of us went down to collect grain, but instead of bringing the grain back, Su Qi'an calculated and took five hundred state soldiers, will the state shepherd let us go?"

"Even if Lord Governor really sent troops, is he really angry for us? I don't look at what kind of goods we are, at most we are a pawn of the state pastor's troops."

"When the time comes, we really fight with Su Hou, do you think Su Hou will let us go? If you want to save your life, you have to do what I say, when we encounter bandits robbing food, I can't wait for the enemy, regardless of whether the state pastor believes it or not, I have to say so, otherwise Lord Wang will be a lesson from the past."

The eyes of several state soldiers flashed, recalling the half-dead Lord Wang, who was beaten half-dead, suddenly had a chill in his heart, and nodded again and again, if he said anything, they couldn't escape the blame of the state pastor, so they simply pushed it all on the bandits, even if they were blamed, at least it was lighter than Su Qi'an's people snatching it.

After confirming the rhetoric, under the leadership of the grain collector surnamed Huang, everyone continued to set off, and it took about an hour to finally return to Jiaozhou City.

After entering the city, about two quarters of an hour, Jiaozhou City Mansion, in a side room.

The sound of the teacup breaking sounded, accompanied by Li Kang's angry scolding in the middle.

In the room, Li Kang stood above, and below were seven or eight people including the grain collector surnamed Huang, who were trembling and kneeling on the ground.

"Bandits steal food, hmph, don't you make up nonsense and don't make drafts? Where are there bandits in Jiaozhou now, even if there are bandits, Benzhou gives them a few guts,

I don't dare to touch the people of this state."

"Say, is it Su Qi'an who led the troops to ambush you, Benzhou will give you another chance, and those who dare to deceive Benzhou will die!"

"Lord Governor spares his life, this time the grain requisition really encountered bandits, this group of bandits is different from other bandits, I don't know where they came out, all fierce, we resisted fiercely, and finally lost the enemy, only a few of us escaped by luck."

"What we said is true, and we will never dare to deceive the state pastor."

Looking at the people who still insisted on saying the word until now, Li Kang's face was pale.

Either way, he still couldn't believe that there would be bandits who would have the guts to rob him of his food.

The bandits before Jiaozhou were supported by him, but they were exterminated by Su Qi'an halfway, even if there were remnants of bandits, they had absolutely no courage to attack him.

Li Kang's eyes flashed, and he planned to torture these people, but he didn't believe it, and at this point, these people were still so hard-mouthed.

At this moment, the state envoy, who had been standing beside him and had been speechless, spoke.

"Lord Governor, I think most of what they said is true, and the focus now is not whether the bandits have the courage to grab food, but the people behind this group of bandits."

"My lord, the bandits were indeed exterminated in Jiaozhou, but don't forget, who is the person who exterminated? What the adults did before, I think they should be able to do."

Li Kang's eyes flashed, and he hesitated, "You mean, Su Qi'an has re-supported a group of bandits?"

The state envoy did not answer, and said to the few people kneeling below, "Okay, you stand down, remember, you don't know anything in the room."

"My subordinates understand." The state envoy relieved them at the critical moment, which made several people breathe a sigh of relief, nodded again and again, and then left.

Since he left, the state envoy continued, "This is not impossible, after all, the state envoy, your oppression this year is really too ruthless."

"I said a year ago, don't worry, you can slowly use personnel to infiltrate, but adults, you can't wait, you have to use strong means to directly sanction it, and now this incident is naturally expected."
