Chapter 15
Li Gui immediately beat the drum to gather the crowd, and soon everyone was fully armed and lined up in the square.

Fearing that the morale of the bandits would be shaken, Li Gui did not explain, but led his troops out of the stronghold.

Li Gui led five soldiers, wearing armor and carrying swords, and Li Laoqi walked in front, with fifty spearmen in the middle, and five soldiers at the end to supervise the battle team.

It's not that he doesn't want to take more people, but the mountains are narrow and taking too many people will make it too crowded and difficult to fight.

If fifty spearmen are left to guard the stronghold, even if something happens, they won't be robbed.

The group of people didn't know the purpose of their trip, and didn't dare to ask, so they just went on their way.

Not long after, we arrived at a mountain col with dense forests on both sides and a mountain road in the middle. The road was slightly flat and spacious, making it a good place for an ambush.

Li Gui ordered his two guards, each with 25 people, to ambush in the mountains and forests. When the drums sounded, they came out and lined up in the road.

Everyone just said it was a drill and were not afraid, so they took their orders.

Li Gui brought his own soldiers, inspected carefully, and made up for all the flaws, then retreated a distance and hid in the forest.

About half an hour later, a group of people from afar were seen walking along the mountain road.

There were about a hundred or so people in this group, wearing knots on their heads, soap robes of government officials on their bodies, swords on their waists, and sticks in their hands. There were also some people who carried bows and arrows on their backs. They gathered in a casual group, surrounded by a person. The handsome-looking man was walking up the mountain, talking and laughing.

This look is more like an outing than suppressing bandits.

If he hadn't learned the information in advance, Li Gui would have thought he had ambushed the wrong person.

After he killed Butler Li, he obtained a large number of weapons and armor from the Li family. Official Li would not have known this, but the government servants who came this time did not have any armor on them, and they were so casual, as if they were unprepared.

Seeing this situation, Li Gui didn't know whether to call them arrogant or stupid.

However, Li Gui vaguely guessed that these government officials were probably tricked by Li Daguan's people.

Qian Ke Tong has been very happy recently.

He was originally a street gangster in Yishui County. He wandered around the streets all day long. With some boxing skills, he made a name for himself on the street. With this, he got a salary from Jubao Gambling House. .

Originally, I was just going to hang out like this for the rest of my life. When I got older, I would find a mother-in-law and have a few babies, and my life would just go by like this.

Unexpectedly, things have turned around, and his fortune has turned around recently.

First, Li Gui went crazy and hacked Huang Xiu, the steward of the gambling house, to death.

Others were so frightened that they fled in all directions, but Qian Ke, a master of arts and crafts, was brave enough to sneak into the gambling house after Li Gui left and made a fortune.

If this is all, it will be nothing, and this extravagant wealth will be spent sooner or later.

But who would have thought that his luck had not run out yet. Li Gui not only killed Huang Xiu, but also hacked the county magistrate to death.

This can poke a hornet's nest!
The elders blamed him, sent troops down, and captured all the officials and servants in the yamen. I'm afraid they won't be able to get out unless they peel off their skin.

The wealthy people, looking at the opportunity for advancement, went to the new magistrate to flatter him, and gave all the money they got from gambling houses to the magistrate. As a result, they successfully got a position as head of the capital.

Even though Dutou is just a subordinate, his salary is not high, but he actually has a lot of power, especially in handling lawsuits in the county and making connections for the gentlemen, which is a lot of money.

A mere amount of money will be used up sooner or later.

But the location of the capital is the real heirloom.Sure enough, as soon as he became the head of the capital, financial resources came to his door.

On the nearby Yushan Mountain, there was a group of grass bandits who were so daring that they committed crimes in Shagou Town and even killed the housekeeper of Mr. Li Daguan.

Official Li was angry and came repeatedly to urge the magistrate to carry out a campaign.

When the new county magistrate took office, he needed to make great achievements and had the support of the gentry. He immediately called Qian Ketong and asked him to lead his team to capture the thieves.

Qian Ketong took the opportunity to propose a plan, asking the county magistrate to apportion the bandit suppression tax and pay a sum of money, and he learned that the county was pleased.

Qian Ketong took the opportunity to accept bribes from the government officials who were in trouble. He exonerated everyone in front of the magistrate on the grounds that he needed manpower to suppress the bandits, and threw all the charges on the original captain, creating opportunities for the magistrate to extort money.

After some activities, several officials became rich, Qian Ketong secured his position as head of the capital, and the government officials were relieved of the responsibility for the murder of the previous magistrate, and everyone was happy.

As for the bandits on Yushan Mountain, Qian Ketong was not worried at all.

As a person in the martial arts world, he has long been very aware of the situation of heroes in the surrounding cottages.

They are said to be bandits, but they are actually a group of poor people. There are quite a few of them, but they are all farmers. They may be able to rob homes and houses, but they are not worth mentioning when facing the third class of government officials.

At that time, just one sprint will probably make it collapse and escape.

When the time comes, I'll behead a few more and come back, treat them as military merits, and spend money on activities, maybe I can even go one step further!

With this beautiful vision, Qian Ketong led his team to Yushan.

Unexpectedly, just after walking through a mountain col, I suddenly heard the sound of drums and shouts of killing. A group of big men rushed out from the forest opposite.

Qian Ketong was agitated, drew his knife hurriedly, and shouted loudly: "There are only a dozen of them. There are more of us. Let's hack him to death!"

The other officers were slightly panicked, but seeing Dutou being so brave, they immediately calmed down and drew their swords one after another, preparing to defend themselves against the enemy.

Qian Ketongfang composed himself and took a closer look, only to see the leading man holding a knife in one hand, wearing armor, with a murderous look on his face, and a fierce look on his face. He looked familiar.

The big man rushed forward in a few steps, raised his steel sword, and slashed it down.

In the flash of lightning, Qian Ketong suddenly recognized that the person in front of him was clearly the murderer Li Gui!
It's really a narrow road for enemies!

When Li Gui killed Huang Xiu, he ran away in fear, but now he bumped into him here!
If I had known that Li Gui was here, he would not have come to suppress the bandits!

No, if he knew that doing everything would lead to a collision with Li Gui, he wouldn't do anything!

He was quite afraid of Li Gui, but when he really fought, he couldn't even make a three-pointer with all his strength. He only felt that his body was stiff, his hands and feet were weak, and he was unable to block. After three or five moves, Li Gui slashed him down with his shoulder. The head and body were split into two halves.

The surrounding government officials were fighting with Li Gui's soldiers when they saw the heroic Qian Du's head being chopped to death with a knife. They were immediately shocked and the timid ones turned around and ran away.

If there is one deserter, there will be a second, third... and the whole situation will collapse immediately.

The army was defeated like a mountain. Even if there were still a few government officials with strong martial arts skills, it would be impossible to save the situation!
Unexpectedly, when they turned back to escape, they discovered that a group of people had come out of the forest on both sides behind them and lined up behind them, blocking the way.
