Chapter 52: Suppressing Thieves
The old man Guan Ping Suri is used to beating and scolding soldiers in the house, how have you ever seen a soldier dare to resist?
Now he was stunned, he dared to do something to him, where to take precautions, he was about to be stabbed to death by a shot, and suddenly a strong force came from behind him, dragging him back, but it was the guard next to him who came to the rescue.
Lao Duguan sat down on the ground with his buttocks, and only then did he react to what had just happened, and suddenly he was covered in a cold sweat, and he only felt that his hands and feet were sore and he couldn't move.
He was so angry that he trembled and pointed his finger at the tax collector, and hissed incessantly:
"You—How dare you kill me?"
"I won't let you go!"
"Even the dog officer behind you, wait for me!"
"I won't let you go!"
After the tax collector stabbed out with a shot, he knew that he was in trouble, and seeing that the enemy's malice was revealed, he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately came up with a solution for his own big village master to deal with this kind of thing.
He took a few quick steps back, stood side by side with his brothers, formed a small formation, and at the same time raised his spear, and shouted:
"As long as there is no living mouth, this will not happen!"
"Brothers, kill people!"
A dozen people hurried forward, aimed at a few people in the convoy, and spears stabbed out.
If this was just a caravan, maybe they would have succeeded, but this was a convoy transporting the Birth Gang, and the escorts in it were all military officers, and both in terms of martial arts and training, they were far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers.
I saw that those guards drew their swords from behind them, and they also formed a military formation, rushing head-on.
The difference in strength between them is too far, and the result of the battle is obvious.
After misjudging the situation, the side that was slaughtered became the side of the tax collectors.
In one face, half of the people on the tax collector's side died, and the rest of the people saw that the situation was not good, so they immediately turned around and ran, but where could they escape, and after being caught up by a group of guards, they were hacked to death.
A moment later, the commander of the guard drew his sword from the last man's belly, kicked the body away, and returned, lifting the old man on the ground and setting him up in the car.
The old man was furious, chattering endlessly: "Go back and find out who set up this tax customs, grandpa has to make him look good!" ”
The commander of the guard shook his head secretly, but he had no choice but to be deaf, stuffed him into the car, urged the horse forward, and before reaching the checkpoint, he cut off the crosswood with a knife, and led the convoy directly to rush over, and drove away.
At noon, the soldiers who had eaten came down to change their guards, only to find the tragedy at the checkpoint, and immediately frightened, turned their heads and rushed up the mountain to report to Li Guiyu.
When Ghost Li heard this, he was furious, picked up the big axe and was about to go down the mountain, but the rest of the people hurriedly stopped him.
"Brother, we are now recruited, no longer thieves, don't kill people indiscriminately!"
Ghost Li glared at him and said angrily:
"What do you mean by killing people indiscriminately?"
"A certain family is now an official, and his brothers are all officials and soldiers, and those who dare to kill officials and soldiers are clearly thieves!"
"What if you kill it?"
"Now that we are recruiting ourselves and are lacking credit, someone will send them to the door, won't God help me?"
"If you don't take it, you will be blamed!"
"If you don't go, and wait on the mountain, I will go and make meritorious service!"
Where did everyone dare to let him go, he hurriedly followed him down the mountain, led the soldiers and horses, and tracked him all the way.
These vehicles are carrying gold and silver treasures, and their weight is not light, and the rut marks are obvious, and they are not afraid of being lost.
But it was said that Li Guima was fast, threw off everyone, galloped all the way, and it didn't take long to catch up with the convoy.
He rode forward, stopped the convoy, pointed at the big axe, and shouted:
"Phew!"
"Vulna Convoy!"
"A soldier at a certain tax customs, but you are so harmful?"
The guard commander came out of the crowd, clasped his fists with both hands, and was about to speak, but the pig teammate behind him came out of the carriage, pointed at Ghost Li and scolded:
"It turns out that you are the bird officer who set up the private checkpoint!"
"Do you know who Grandpa is?"
"Grandpa is the steward of the Governor's Mansion on Huainan East Road, and this time he is here to transport the Birthday Gang."
"You dare to set up a card to collect taxes, it is a crime of disgrace and dismissal!"
"Your subordinates still dare to be rude to grandpa, it's obvious that you are not strict in discipline!"
"If you know each other, come over honestly and let grandpa get angry, and the matter will be over."
"If not......"
It's not that this old man doesn't have a long lesson, but he doesn't believe that Ghost Li, a petty official, dares to do anything with him.
It's normal for a pawn to be angry and angry, but few officials do things with a hot head, and they basically have to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
So although he was frightened by those tax collectors, he still firmly believed that that was a special case, and a military attache of a grade like Li Gui would definitely not do something stupid.
But who would have thought that before he finished scolding, he saw the big black man on the opposite side smile, picked up the axe, and urged the horses to rush over.
"Ah......h
Lao Duguan was immediately frightened, screaming screams for a while, and he couldn't understand at all in his mind, why the officialdom rules of this Yizhou territory were so far away from his Huainan East Road?
The commander of the guard hurriedly copied the guy and stepped forward to stop him, but after a move, he was knocked off his horse, and then he made up for it with an axe and cut off his head.
Seeing that the enemy was about to be so strong, where did they dare to go up again, they scattered and fled, leaving the way to go.
Ghost Li rode on his horse and charged and killed these guards cleanly.
Most of the people in the convoy were porters, and seeing that the situation was not good, they abandoned the car and fled into the dense surrounding woods.
Ghost Li didn't bother to chase and kill these guys, so he went back to the carriage and cut down the frightened and paralyzed old man.
The old man hurriedly dodged, but where did he have time, his body was stopped in half, half of his body fell to the ground, blood spurted wildly, and his lips still squirmed:
"You...... No...... Kill me, I'm ......"
Ghost Li ignored him, let him savor the pain and torture before death, and rummaged in the back of the carriage.
He had heard of this name for two lifetimes, but it was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes, and he didn't know how many good treasures there were.
When the other three village owners hurried to the rear, they only saw the corpses all over the field, and their own big village owners sat on the wheel, holding a handful of gold beads in their hands, playing with marbles, a box of jewels under their feet, the lid had been pried open, all kinds of pearls and gems were scattered all over the ground, and next to them was half a corpse.
This scene is simply ...... What a picture of a bandit raid!
"Brother!"
"How did you kill so many again?"
The three of them cried out in unison, but Ghost Li commanded:
"Go and cut off those heads and send them to the county seat to repay the merits."
"We should have a reward for destroying the thieves who attack and kill the officers and soldiers."
The three of them only looked at this carload of gold and jewelry, and they were afraid that there would be no less than 100,000 yuan, where could there be any thieves, and how could they believe it?
Zhu Fu looked around, sighed, called the other two aside, and said in a low voice:
"Just look at the treasures in this team, you can see that this owner has a lot of background."
"If the news leaks out, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
"For the sake of today's plan, only by following the methods of Brother Li Ghost and designating all these people as thieves can we avoid the disaster."
"I just saw that there are a lot of live escapes, this is not good, we have to find out and kill the mouth."
The three of them had made up their minds, and immediately sent a wide range of men to hunt down and avenge the dead cottage brothers.
Just die, don't live!
