I may have taken a fake system

Chapter 63 During the Ambush

"Elder Yin, the target will appear soon, and I have to work hard for you."

"Humph."

There is a place with special terrain near the junction of Yishui and Linshui.

When the official road was opened here, it encountered a hill with a relatively gentle terrain but a large area. If you want to bypass this place, you will need to spend a lot of resources.The officials responsible for building the official road at that time not only built the road directly from the middle of the hill out of some considerations, but also created a common modern mountain road.

Fortunately, the hilly terrain is gentle, and this section of the official road is relatively smooth except for being slightly narrower.It's just that there is a forest with chaotic trees on this low mountain. It has been the most popular holy place among bandits and horse bandits for a long time.

It is really because this place can hide people and ambushes without anyone noticing, making it difficult for people to discover. The road is narrow and easy to be surrounded and difficult to defend. Even retreat and escape are extremely difficult.

There used to be successive generations of bandits who occupied this place, and then the more ferocious younger generations occupied the magpie nest. The replacement of generations was very frequent.It's just that these groups who make a living by stealing and robbing have also been seriously damaged in the battles, and there is no absolute winner.

Later, the bandits also learned to be smart.

The historical background is here. There were also many bandits in Fengan at that time, and there were three relatively powerful bandit villages in this area.The three bandits have reached an agreement to compete every two years.

Whether it's a drinking contest, a martial arts competition, or drawing lots to test one's character, in short, everyone has to fight for this holy land based on their ability and take turns to occupy it.

But whenever officers and soldiers came to suppress the bandits, the bandits were still able to unite and resist.

Originally, the terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, which was not conducive to suppressing bandits. In addition, the officials only cared about making money for their own enjoyment and did nothing, so that for a long time, people passing by this official road had to pay a large sum of money to buy the road. .

The prefect before Liu Fenggu was the most thoughtful one. He discovered the business opportunities and sent people to contact the bandits. In the end, the two parties reached a consensus!The government turned a blind eye to this situation, but the robbers on duty handed over [-]% of the property they robbed to the government. Inexplicably, the two parties became mutually beneficial and a win-win situation!

Of course, no paper can stop the fire. This incident was discovered and reported by a county magistrate who had been jealous of the position of prefect for a long time. The former prefect was dismissed, imprisoned, and the entire clan was exiled as a matter of course.

Later, the county magistrate failed to get promoted, and the position of prefect was taken over by an airborne person, none other than the living Koi Liu Fenggu.

Governor Liu is so unique and individual, so different from the previous officials.The second thing he did when he took office was to rectify the bandits in Feng'an. In just half a year, he wiped out all the big gangs and used more than half of the seized finances for the construction of Feng'an, which was deeply loved by the people.

The small half was left to Madam to do business.

The big groups were gone, and the small ones were afraid of the threat and soon disbanded.

The official road then ceased, and there was no more talk of tolls.

It's just that the terrain cannot be changed, and it is still difficult to prevent an ambush here.

There were two people standing on the top of the mountain, one old, one young and one middle-aged. It was Elder Yin, a master of martial arts, and Qiao Gaoshi, the young master of the Qiao family, plus a strange man.

"Liu Fenggu has a servant with high martial arts skills beside him. There are not many guards accompanying him, only 51. My people will deal with those guards, and please take action to deal with the servant who is good at martial arts." Qiao Gaoshi had already After investigating the situation of Liu Fenggu's team, standing here now feels quite exciting.

For this ambush, the Qiao family specially allocated him an elite force.Coupled with the team sent by Zhang Guanyuan and led by the middle-aged man, as well as the help of Elder Yin, he is sure to kill the prefect!
"What's the skill of the man named Liu?" Elder Yin looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle and looked very proud, and asked casually.

"Liu Feng Gu is a scholar, but he doesn't know martial arts." Qiao Gaoshi said with certainty.

No one has ever seen Liu Fenggu take action in so many years. In addition, he has a bookish air. Even when traveling, he rides in a carriage as delicately as a woman. He doesn't look like a man who has the time and effort to be with him at all.

"Huh, with or without him there would be no way to escape death today." Elder Yin sneered, his eyes gloomy and ruthless. "Boy, I'll help you kill Liu Fenggu. It's time to fulfill your promise to me."

Qiao Gaoshi nodded with a smile and responded hurriedly. "Elder Yin, don't worry. Someone has come to report that Liu Fufeng has appeared in Yangzhou and will be back soon." When he said this, his smile became a little more meaningful, "Besides, Liu Fenggu is dead, he will definitely He will return as soon as possible to pay his respects to his father, right?"

"When the time comes, I will send this boy to reunite with his father. It will be considered a good deed."

"That's what Elder Yin said."

The expressions on the faces of the two men, one old and one young, are very similar, and they share the same insidious and vicious look.

"Elder, this junior will go back and make arrangements first. We have to rely more on you here." Qiao Gaoshi said respectfully, and fisted the middle-aged man again, "Uncle Zhang, thank you for your hard work."

"Yeah." The old man hummed and looked at Shanxia Guandao with squinted eyes, indifferently.

The middle-aged man twitched his lips and nodded in agreement.

This man was an old servant of the Zhang family and was deeply trusted by Zhang Guanyuan. This time, he was asked to bring people to ambush Liu Fenggu together.

After riding away with his servant, Qiao Gaoshi suppressed the excitement in his heart and returned to the city, preparing to take the next action as soon as he received the news of Liu Fenggu's death.

"Master, there are still two miles ahead to reach Jinshan." Wen Song rode beside the carriage and said to Liu Fenggu in the carriage.

The name Jinshan was first called by Ye Lanjin. Needless to say, everyone knows its meaning.

"Send the order and everyone be on full alert." Liu Fenggu calmly ordered.

"Yes." Wen Song left to arrange the arrangements.

"Sir, do you think there might be an ambush?" Bai Zhu, who was sitting next to the coachman, turned around and asked curiously.

"Be prepared." There was no hint of nervousness in Liu Fenggu's voice, as if he really just said it casually.

"You are wise, you should take precautions!" Bai Zhu agreed very much, "The Zhang family seems to be honest these years, and they have done a lot of trouble behind the scenes. Maybe they will be more careful!"

The county magistrate who had no hesitation in reporting on the newly appointed prefect was none other than Zhang Guanyuan, who had been serving as magistrate for several years without making any progress.

Liu Fenggu smiled and said no more.

The team moved forward in such an orderly manner, and everything seemed very peaceful.

On the other side, a carriage drove toward the outside of the city and passed by Qiao Gaoshi who was returning to the city.

"Brother, have you made arrangements?" Liu Fuyun glanced at the eldest sister who was shaking her fan leisurely and asked.

"Of course, brother, I will take you to the theater."
