My life skills in Daming Liver.

Chapter 92 Killing the Fox

The clerk of the ceremony room who was in charge of recovering the petition came to Changning Weizhong in a show of force. He held the official document of the county government and yelled for Lin Baihu to come out.

Lin Mojun happened to lead his troops to practice at sea, and his grandfather took Su Ze, who had just returned to Changningwei from the county, to meet with the secretary of the ceremonial room.

"The magistrate of the county has ordered that the petitions of Changningwei's former hundred households be sent back to the county government for the time being."

Hearing this, the people of Changningwei said angrily: "My family died for the country! Why do you want to recover the envoy!"

The clerk of the ceremony room was a little scared at first, but when he saw the yamen servant behind him, he thought of Dianshi and Xu Shisheng who supported him, and immediately said viciously: "The county yamen is not recovering the petition, but sending it back to the county yamen for the time being." , wait until the survey is correct before sending it back to you! Are you Changning Guards going to rebel??"

As soon as the big hat of rebellion was buckled, the common people dared not step forward.

The clerk of the ceremonial room said triumphantly: "Hurry up and bring back the letter, I want to go back to the county government office!"

The elder Ah Gong was about to step forward to argue, but Su Ze stopped him and whispered in his ear:

"Grandpa, the county government suddenly wants to withdraw the notice. I'm afraid there is something hidden. I'll go and find out."

After finishing speaking, Su Ze took out some pieces of silver from his body, and then pulled the clerk aside.

Skill, activate.

After a certain skill was activated, the attitude of the assistant was much better.

The ceremonial room itself does not have much profit, and only a few occasions can make money. Originally, the assistant thought that Changningwei was a poor place and could not get filial piety, but he did not expect Su Ze to be so good.

After the helper accepted the scraps of money, he cleared his throat and said, "This little gentleman is a sensible person at first glance. It is an order from the magistrate of the county to temporarily withdraw the letter. Please don't make things difficult for me." .”

Su Ze cupped his hands and said, "I know it's the magistrate's order, but why did you suddenly withdraw the letter?"

The helper looked at Su Ze pleasingly, then weighed the money in his arms and said:

"This is what our householder Mr. Xu suggested to the elder."

Sure enough, Xu Shisheng was the one who made a hindrance. Su Ze suppressed his anger and continued to ask:

"I don't know what big mistake our Changning Guard has made, and we will be taken back?"

The assistant of the ceremony room said: "The fault is that you offended Uncle Xu. For the sake of you being a scholar, let me tell you a piece of news."

After finishing speaking, the receptionist's helper hooked his hands, and Su Ze immediately understood the meaning of adding money.

Su Ze handed over some broken silver again, and the clerk said:
"News from Fuzhou City, Qing army imperial censor Yan asked the order of the chief envoy to call the officials in charge of households in various counties to assist the Qing army. Uncle Xu is the official in charge of households in Nanping City. Your Changning guards are about to fall. Bad luck!"

Su Ze was startled, and the helper told the story of Yan Maoqing's torment in Fuzhou Mansion, and Su Ze immediately understood the whole story.

It turned out that Xu Shisheng hooked up with Yan Maoqing in this way, and then falsely accused Changning Wei.

After all were connected, Su Ze regained his composure.

There is no room for relaxation between Xu Shisheng and Chang Ningwei, it can only be the result of endless death.

Yan Maoqing of the Qing army was the king of Hades, while Xu Shisheng, who was a slave to the tiger, was a little ghost.

Hades is easy, but the imp is hard.

Su Ze thought for a while and said: "Lin Baihu has gone to sea for training. This means that our Chang Ningwei sent it to the county government by himself. Please go back to the county first."

The group of books hesitated for a while, Changning Wei's envoy is a rather heavy plaque, and it would take a lot of work to transport it back.

Seeing the broken silver that Su Ze sent, the helper said: "You will be sent to the county government within three days."

"sure."

The assistant nodded in satisfaction, and Su Ze asked again: "I wonder if Uncle Xu is leaving for Fuzhou City now?"

"Why are you asking this?"

"Don't you want to move around a bit, what if Uncle Xu forgives our Changning Guard?"

The assistant immediately understood Su Ze's meaning. He nodded and said, "Uncle Xu will leave tomorrow, but I advise you not to waste your money in vain."

After saying this, the clerk of the ceremonial room led the staff and left Changningwei without looking back.

It was not until the afternoon that Lin Mojun led the troops back to Changningwei. When she received the news, she immediately came to the ancestral hall to discuss matters.

The old grandpa, Su Ze, nine aunts, shipyard master Lin Xianzong were present, and Lin Xianyang stood behind the old grandpa.

This is how Changningwei is in charge of decision-making. With the addition of Lin Mojun, a hundred households in the guard, the major issues of Changningwei are all discussed and decided by them.

The atmosphere in the ancestral hall today is very heavy, Lin Mojun asked after stepping in, "The county government wants to recover my father's letter?"

The old grandfather sighed helplessly, Su Ze said: "Recovering Jingbiao is only the first step, it is Xu Shisheng who is going to attack Changningwei."

When Lin Mojun heard Xu Shisheng's name, she was not too surprised. She knew the hatred between Laobaihu and Changningwei best.

After Su Ze finished talking about the key points, Lin Mojun was silent for a while and said:

"My father still has some old friends with the chief executive, so why don't we think of a way?"

Su Ze shook his head and said, "Censor Qing Army, everyone in the chief department is at risk. How can anyone stand up for Changning Guard? Besides, even if they help, it may not be effective."

Lin Mojun clenched his fists and said, "Is there no other way?"

Thinking of his father's death for the country, now he will be recovered by the county government, and he may even be blackmailed by the censor and lose his hereditary military position.

Lin Mojun felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

For the first time, she was shaken by the belief that her father taught her to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Su Ze winked at Lin Xianyang, and Lin Xianyang closed the door of the ancestral hall, after confirming that there were no eavesdroppers.

Su Ze then said: "There is another way."

Everyone looked at Su Ze. At this time, he actually said there was a way?
Lin Mojun asked: "What way?"

Su Ze said, "Kill Xu Shisheng."

The ancestral hall fell silent for an instant, and the voice seemed to freeze.

After a long time, Lin Mojun said: "Xu Shisheng is the official of the county government."

"We pretended to be pirates outside the city to rob and kill him."

Lin Mojun was silent for a while and said: "Nowadays the border is restless, Xu Shisheng will definitely be escorted."

Su Ze said, "Just kill Xu Shisheng."

"How sure are you?"

"About five points."

Ninth Aunt suddenly said: "This method is good, but Su Ze can't go!"

Lin Xianyang also said: "Yes! Brother Aze will have to take the imperial examination to become an official in the future, so we can't get involved in this kind of thing."

Su Ze said, "I'm going."

He looked at Lin Mojun and said: "The people escorting Xu Shisheng must be Min Zhuang in the county. If they recognize the main soldier, they can't use the main soldier in the guard."

Lin Mojun nodded. Sometimes the county townsmen would join forces with the soldiers of the guard. Even if it was a masked robbery, the size of the soldiers could be easily recognized.

Su Ze said: "Let the newly trained bird gunners go, I will take them."

Lin Mojun said: "The people in Nanping City are strong and fierce. The musketeers have only practiced for such a short time. Can they beat it?"

Su Ze said: "We just want to kill Xu Shisheng, not to wipe out Minzhuang, we just need to deter those Minzhuang."

Lin Mojun thought for a while and said, "I want to go too."

"That's natural."

Su Ze said to his old grandpa again: "I also need to ask my old grandpa to pick out some reliable young men from the army."

"Aze, don't worry, this time I will definitely choose those who are all in the guard."

Su Ze said again: "You must volunteer."

The old man nodded and said, "I see."

Just when everyone in Changningwei agreed to kill Xu Shisheng, Xu Shisheng was buying goods to be shipped to Fuzhou City.

There are many dignitaries and dignitaries in Fuzhou City, and many commodities from Nanping City can make money when they are transported to Fuzhou City.

But this road is not safe, not only Japanese pirates and bandits are haunted, but also Yanping Guard and the private checkpoints set up by various guards in various counties. Ordinary businessmen can offset most of their profits by paying a lot of miscellaneous taxes once they go back and forth.

Although Xu Shisheng is the head of households in Nanping City, there is Yanping Mansion outside of Nanping City, and other prefectures and counties outside of Yanping Mansion. If he wants to transport goods to Fuzhou City, he still cannot escape these tax cards.

But this time, Xu Shisheng received the order from the Fujian chief envoy to go to Fuzhou on business, and with the backing of Yan Maoqing, the imperial censor of the Qing army, he was not afraid of being robbed by the checkpoints along the way.

But this time when he went out on business, County Magistrate Bai was also afraid that Xu Shisheng might make a mistake, so he ordered Li Hu, the leader of the county yamen minzhuang, to lead thirty minzhuang to escort him along the way.

Li Hu is a ruthless man who dared to go out of the city to fight when the Japanese pirates besieged the city. The bandits and small groups of Japanese pirates along the way were no match for Li Hu at all, so Xu Shisheng took out the money he had accumulated over the years and extorted money from other hereditary military households in Nanping City. With this sum of money, he purchased three carts of goods worth 200 taels of silver, and prepared to bring them to Fuzhou City for sale.

Xu Shisheng only brought two assistants, and pushed the whole three carts of goods to the gate of the county seat.

In order to save money, Xu Shisheng was even reluctant to hire mules and horses, and directly drove Min Zhuang to help him push the cart.

Li Hu is a tall and strong man with black curly hair, quite resembling the image of Zhang Fei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Li Hu also took Zhang Fei as his idol, and practiced a snake spear hard since he was a child, because his strength is greater than ordinary people, and his spear wielding is amazingly powerful, and he is also well-known around Nanping County.

Li Hu has a fierce personality, but Xu Shisheng made a cake for him when he came up, saying that this time he was assisting the imperial censor Qing army, and if he had a vacant military post, he could help Li Hu to make up for hundreds or thousands of households.

Li Hu is the leader of Minzhuang, and Minzhuang is just a servant, lower than the officials of the county government. They are completely temporary workers hired by the county government, and they are not paid at all.

Although the status of the hereditary military position is not high, it will be much better than Li Hu, a temporary worker in the county government.

Li Hu's family is poor and has no money to read and write. He was brought up by his old mother. He worked hard in the county since he was a child, and he was once a bandit. He must not be able to take the martial arts exam.

Later, after County Magistrate Bai arrived in the county, he was ordered to be safe for the sake of maintaining stability and made him the leader of the people's village. Finally, he didn't need to bring his old mother to live in the windy cottage.

If he could get a hereditary military position, it would be regarded as honoring his ancestors, and Li Hu's old mother would definitely be very happy.

Therefore, Li Hu turned a blind eye to Xu Shisheng's driving of Min Zhuang under him. Anyway, Min Zhuang in the county town often did things like pulling carts and transporting goods.

Without Li Hu's support, Xu Shisheng intensified his efforts and made two of his assistants work as supervisors, constantly urging the villagers to move forward quickly.

These two helpers are also the same bully as Xu Shisheng. Seeing these folks who usually run rampant in the county are being driven around by Xu Shisheng, it is even more of a tossing up of the folks.

The folks complained a lot, but Li Hu didn't make a sound, and they didn't dare to contradict Xu Shisheng.

After walking stumblingly for half a day, they only walked [-] miles out of the county seat. The villagers were exhausted enough. Xu Shisheng and the two assistants felt that they were walking too slowly. They had just rested by the river for a while, and urged Li Hu hit the road.

For the fame Xu Shisheng promised, Li Hu had no choice but to stop repairing and continue pushing the cart on the road.

At this time, Su Ze, who was ambushing in the woods ahead, said to Yu Qingzhuang, the guard of Changning, "Have you remembered the key?"

The rest of the army were all masked, and the musketeers were divided into two rows. The first row was led by Su Ze, and the second row was led by Lin Xianyang.

Su Ze looked at the sparse team of Min Zhuang from the county yamen who were about to set off in the distance. A thin middle-aged man in the clothes of a soap-colored scribe was urging Min Zhuang to pull a cart with curses under the service of two assistants. Su Ze Pointing and asking: "Is that Xu Shisheng?"

Lin Xianyang nodded, and Su Ze finally told:

"How do you remember?"

Lin Xianyang nodded and said: "Remember, the first row should aim and shoot at a distance of [-] steps, and the second row should wait for the enemy to be within [-] steps before shooting."

"If the county townspeople run away, don't continue to pursue them. If someone rushes within fifty steps, you must resolutely kill them. Do you understand?"

"understand!"

Lin Mojun was also covered with a black cloth, and she squatted in the bushes holding a spear horizontally. After Su Ze finished explaining to Lin Xianyang, Su Ze walked over and said to Lin Mojun:

"Do you still remember the phrase in "The Art of War" that we once said? 'Use correctness to achieve victory'."

Lin Mojun said: "Remember."

"Very good. Brother Xianyang and I are leading the main army this time, and you are the odd army. You will be the one to assassinate Xu Shisheng this time."

Lin Mojun nodded immediately and said, "Understood!"

"Everyone take a final rest and attack when they are almost in the woods."

Xu Shisheng finally packed up the convoy, Min Zhuang pushed the truck, and finally started to move forward. When he reached the forest, Li Hu frowned and said, "There are usually many animals in this forest, why is it so quiet today?"

Xu Shisheng said indifferently: "I have only walked out of the county for less than thirty miles, how can there be bandits ambushing here? You are too cautious, Lord Tiger."

Li Hu frowned slightly and said, "That's right, I hope I'm worrying too much."

But when the convoy was about to enter the woods, suddenly a group of people rushed out of the woods.

Min Zhuang on Li Hu's side was pushing the cart, but when he saw someone rushing out suddenly, he panicked.

However, Li Hu was very prestige in the Minzhuang team on weekdays. He stabilized the team with a loud shout, and the Minzhuang people drew their knives out one after another.

At this time, Su Ze had already lit the match, and he ordered: "First row, shoot!"

The soldiers of Changning Guard, Yu Qingzhuang, have not been trained for long, and they have just been able to skillfully complete the action of shooting. The blunderbuss are also fired in an irregular manner. There are sparse gunshots, and the smoke from the burning gunpowder comes out. There was chaos on the battlefield.

However, Changningwei's side was in chaos, and Xu Shisheng's side just collapsed.

Min Zhuang from Nanping City had fought Japanese pirates before, and of course they had seen the blunderbuss, and they also knew the power of this weapon.

So many bird guns!That must be no ordinary bandit!It must be Japanese pirates!
Only after the first round of gunfire, all the villagers were unable to stand still, and some even dropped their weapons to escape.

Xu Shisheng and the two assistants were even more unbearable. One assistant was trembling with his hair in his arms, and he didn't have the arrogance he had just oppressed Minzhuang.

The other one had already hid at the end of the team, ready to turn around and run away at any time.

At this time, Li Hu stood up with a spear in his hand, and he shouted: "The distance is so far, the blunderbuss can't be accurate! They fired once, and they won't be able to fire a second shot in a short time. Hurry up and shoot!" I charge and still have a way to survive!"

After saying this, Li Hu rushed forward immediately.

Seeing Li Hu charging, five courageous Min Zhuang also rushed up.

The army Yu Qingzhuang on Su Ze's side was also a little flustered when he saw Li Hu rushing up with people.

However, Su Ze remained calm. He shouted to Lin Xianyang in the back row: "Reload! Wait until you are within seventy steps before shooting!"

"The first row is loaded!"

After saying this, Su Ze began to clean the gunpowder chamber and the barrel, and then reloaded the gunpowder according to the steps, and reloaded the gunpowder and lead bullets again.

Li Hu's speed was very fast, he had rushed within eighty steps, and finally someone couldn't help but fired.

The accuracy of the blunderbuss is already impressive, and these young soldiers have not been trained for a long time, so naturally they failed to hit Li Hu who was moving at high speed.

Li Hu yelled even more, like a tiger descending the mountain, Su Ze, who was in the front row, pounced on him.

The five subordinates who followed Li Hu's charge were not so lucky. When they charged within seventy steps, the second row of bird gunners began to shoot intensively. Although the accuracy of the bird guns was not high, the seventy steps The hit rate of aiming at the human-shaped target was quite impressive, and the five minzhuang who followed Li Hu's charge were shot one after another.

Although they failed to hit the vital point, the severe pain of being shot made them fall to the ground one after another, wailing miserably.

Now those folks in the back no longer have the will to fight.

Seeing the lethality of the bird guns on the opposite side, you know that this is not an ordinary Japanese pirate, maybe it is the famous iron artillery team under King Lu's command!

The last time I fought desperately to defend Nanping City was to protect my homeland, and the county government also offered a generous bounty.

Then why protect Xu Shisheng this time?Originally, they were bullied by Xu Shisheng and the helpers along the way, and there was no reward for protecting Xu Shisheng, so they didn't want to work hard at all.

The minzhuang put down their weapons one after another, ready to flee at any time, but Xu Shisheng's two assistants had already fled.

As for Xu Shisheng, he also wanted to run away, but he couldn't bear to part with the goods he bought with a lot of money. He looked at Li Hu who charged alone, and hoped that Li Hu could drive away the Japanese pirates with his bravery like the last time the Japanese invaded Nanping City. When I can return to the county, I ask Yanpingwei to send troops to escort me.

Sixty steps, fifty steps!
Li Hu had already seen the black hole of the muzzle, he raised the spear in his hand with a smirk, aimed at Su Ze, who looked like the leader, and was about to throw the spear.

This is Li Hu's famous stunt. Within thirty steps, he can nail the enemy with a spear!

Li Hu grinned grimly. According to his experience last time, as long as one pirate is crucified, the other pirates will run away in terror, and this pirate can be repelled.

Forty steps!
Li Hu calculated the distance, and it was almost there!
At this time, Su Ze had already loaded and finished loading first!

A lead bullet wrapped in oiled paper was pushed out of the gun chamber by the expanding air, and shot straight at Li Hu who was moving!

Lv3's "Shooting" skill is much stronger than those of Chang Ningwei, who have just trained for a while.

It was less than fifty steps away from Li Hu, which was already quite a short range.

Lead bullets wrapped in oiled paper are more air-tight than ordinary lead bullets, but they need to be wrapped in oiled paper for loading. Except for Su Ze, the rest of the bird gunners only use ordinary lead bullets.

Su Ze's lead bullet flew out beautifully and hit Li Hu's shoulder!

It's a pity that it wasn't Li Hu's hand holding the spear. Being shot didn't make Li Hu give up charging, but aroused his fierceness even more!
At this time, his left shoulder was shot, and he could no longer use his whole body to throw the spear.

Li Hu simply came over with a spear, wanting to fight Su Ze in the front row!

Li Hu's distance was getting closer and closer. At this time, it was too late to reload. Su Ze also decisively put down the blunderbuss and drew out the big knife at his waist.

Enduring the severe pain in his shoulder, Li Hu stabbed out with all his strength. He just wanted to kill Su Ze in front of him!

[Find the location battlefield, you can learn the skill "Sword Technique", do you want to learn it? 】

"Learn and learn!" Needless to say, learn now!

"System, add strength to both points!"

Su Ze's strength reached 9 points in an instant, and he immediately used basic saber techniques to block Li Hu's spear.

What a lot of strength!
Li Hu had never met such a powerful opponent. Su Ze held his spear tightly, and he couldn't move forward no matter what.

This is master!There are such characters among the pirates?

All kinds of thoughts flashed by, and Li Hu's viciousness disappeared, and he was also decisive, directly gave up the spear in his hand, and then squatted down to run for his life!

This Li Hu was also fateful. When he squatted down, Lin Xianyang and his second row of gunners had already reloaded, but they were afraid of accidentally injuring Su Ze, so they hesitated to shoot.

When Li Hu squatted down to escape, lead bullets flew past his scalp.

Blood flowed down his cheeks, and Li Hu felt the fear of death.

This is much more powerful than the Japanese pirates last time!It's better to run first!
Li Hu quickly escaped from the effective range, and Su Ze immediately asked people to stop shooting.

Seeing that Li Hu also retreated, the remaining Min Zhuang lost their will to fight and started to run away one after another.

Xu Shisheng also wanted to run away, but he was wearing a robe, not as fast as the bunt-clad Min Zhuang, and was soon left behind.

A masked black figure appeared from behind, and Xu Shisheng immediately said: "Hero, spare your life! I am Xu Shisheng from Nanping County, and I have friendship with you King Deer!"

Xu Shisheng added another sentence: "I provided all your gunpowder! Spare my life, these goods are all good men!"

The black shadow asked in a neutral voice: "Do you know our King Deer?"

"Of course! The last time King Lu ambushed Changningwei's former hundred households, I provided the information! You King Lu even gave me a piece of gold cake!"

Xu Shisheng took out the gold cake from his arms and held it high above his head.

When Xu Shisheng saw the silence on the other side, he thought he had a way out and was about to continue begging for mercy.

Hearing the sharp sound of piercing through the air, Xu Shisheng instinctively felt the threat of death, but he couldn't dodge it in time, the spear pierced through his body and nailed him to the ground.

Then there was a flash of the knife, Lin Mojun drew out his saber, and chopped off Xu Shisheng's head.

Grabbing Xu Shisheng's head and pulling out the blood-stained spear, Lin Mojun let out a long howl.

His father's revenge was avenged, but Lin Mojun was not at all happy.

Discussing the facts with Su Ze these days, Lin Mojun understood that Xu Shisheng was not the only one who killed his father. Xu Shisheng was just the most insignificant member of this group, but his hands were the dirtiest.

Su Ze blew the whistle, Lin Mojun put away his spear, and Su Ze led his men to clean the battlefield.

The valuable goods were unloaded from the truck, and everyone carried the valuable goods on their backs, and then set Xu Shisheng's body and the truck on fire.

The crowd withdrew into the forest under the leadership of Su Ze, hiding the traces of escape. Lin Mojun was out of his mind along the way. After seeing Changningwei's Hundred Households, Su Ze said to Lin Mojun:
"Changningwei still needs you."

Lin Mojun nodded silently.

Su Ze watched the sunset glow in the sky expand rapidly, gradually dyeing half of the sky red, like a flame burning a dirty night.

Su Ze murmured in a low voice:
"A single spark can start a prairie fire, and we still have time."
