A certain person is the Heavenly Killer Li Gui.

Chapter 52
The old governor, Guan Suli, was used to beating and scolding soldiers in the palace. How had he ever seen soldiers dare to resist?

Now, a young man suddenly appeared out of nowhere and dared to attack him. He was about to be stabbed to death without any precautions. Suddenly, a strong force came from behind him and dragged him back, but it was next to him. The guard commander came to the rescue.

Lao Duguan sat down on the ground. Only then did he realize what had just happened. He was suddenly covered in cold sweat and felt that his hands and feet were so sore that he could not move.

He was frightened and angry, pointed at the taxman with a trembling finger, and kept shouting in his mouth:
"You, you dare to 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 taxman thrust out his spear, he knew he was in trouble. Seeing that the enemy's malicious intent was obvious, he didn't have time to think carefully and immediately came up with the solution that the leader of his own village used to deal with this kind of thing.

He quickly took a few steps back and stood side by side with his brothers, forming a small team. At the same time, he raised his spear high and shouted:
"As long as there are no survivors, this will not happen!"

"Brothers, kill and silence!"

A dozen people moved forward quickly, aimed at several people in the convoy, and thrust out their spears.

If this was just a caravan, maybe they would have succeeded, but this was a convoy transporting birthday packages, and the escorts in it were all military officers. Their martial arts skills and training levels were far beyond that of ordinary soldiers.

I saw the guards pulling out their swords from behind, forming a military formation, and charging forward.

The strength of each other is too far apart, and the result of the battle is obvious.

After misjudging the situation, the side that was massacred became the side of the tax collectors.

As soon as they met, half of the people on the tax collector's side were dead. The remaining people saw that the situation was not good and immediately turned around and ran away. However, they couldn't escape. After being caught up by a group of guards, they were hacked to death with swords.

After a while, the guard commander pulled the knife out of the last man's belly, kicked the body away, came back, lifted the old man on the ground, and put him on the car.

The old man was so angry that he kept mumbling: "We'll find out who set up this tax later. Grandpa must make him look good!"

The guard commander secretly shook his head, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could only deafen him, put him into the car, and urged his horse forward. When he reached the checkpoint, he cut off the crossbar with a knife, led the convoy to rush past, and drove away. .

At noon, the soldiers who had eaten came down to change defenses, only to discover the tragedy at the checkpoint. They were immediately shocked, turned around and rushed up the mountain to report to Li Gui.

Li Gui became angry when he heard this. He picked up his ax and started to go down the mountain. The other people hurriedly stopped him.

"Brother, we have been recruited now and are no longer thieves. Please stop killing people indiscriminately!"

Li Gui glared and said angrily:

"What is indiscriminate killing?"

"A certain family is now an official, and the brothers under him are all officers and soldiers. Anyone who dares to kill the officers and soldiers is obviously a traitor!"

"So what if I kill him?"

"Now that we are recruiting ourselves, we are lacking in merit, and now someone comes to our door. Isn't it God helping me?"

"If God doesn't take it, you will be to blame!"

"If you don't want to go, just wait on the mountain, and I will go and make meritorious deeds!"

The crowd didn't dare to let him go, so they hurriedly followed him down the mountain, leading their troops and horses to follow him all the way.

These vehicles simply carry gold and silver treasures. They are not light in weight, and the ruts are obvious, so there is no risk of them being chased and lost.

But he said that Li Gui was very fast, leaving everyone behind and running at a fast pace, and it didn't take long for him to catch up with the convoy.

He rode forward, stopped in front of the convoy, pointed his axe, and shouted:

"Bah!"

"Wuna convoy!"

"A soldier from a certain customs station was harmed by you?"

The guard commander came out of the crowd, clasped his hands in his fists, and was about to speak, but the pig teammate behind him got out of the car, pointed at Li Gui and cursed:
"So you are the bird official who set up the private checkpoint!"

"Do you know who grandpa is?"

"Grandpa is the steward of the Huainan East Road Governor's Mansion. This time he is here to deliver birthday packages." "You dare to set up a card to collect taxes, which is a crime of dismissal from office!"

"Your subordinates actually dare to be violent to grandpa. It's obviously because of your lax discipline!"

"If you know what's going on, come here honestly so that Grandpa can give me a good beating and let this matter go."

"If not..."

It's not that the old governor doesn't want to learn a lesson, but he simply doesn't believe that a low-level official like Li Gui dares to fight against him.

It is normal for a young pawn to be passionate and angry, but few officials do things in a hot head. Basically, they 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. A high-level military attaché like Li Gui would never do anything stupid.

But who would have thought that before he finished cursing, the big black man opposite him smiled, swung his ax, urged his horse and rushed over.

"what……"

The old governor was immediately frightened and screamed. He couldn't understand why the official rules of Yizhou were so different from those of his Huainan East Road?

The guard commander hurriedly grabbed the guy to stop him, but he was knocked off his horse with just one move. He then used an ax to cut off his head.

Seeing that the enemy general was so tyrannical and dared to attack again, all the guards fled and got out of the way.

Li Gui rode on his horse and charged, killing all the guards.

Most of the people in the convoy were porters. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately abandoned the car and fled into the surrounding dense woods.

Li Gui didn't bother to chase these guys, so he went back to the carriage and chopped off the head of the old man who was paralyzed with fear with an axe.

The old governor hurriedly dodged, but he didn't have time. His body was immediately cut in half at the waist. Half of his body fell to the ground, blood spurted out, and his lips were still squirming and muttering:

"You...can't...kill me, I am..."

Li Gui ignored him and let him savor the pain and torture before death while he rummaged around in the back of the carriage.

He had heard about the name of the birthday card for two lifetimes, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes, and he didn't know how many good treasures it contained.

When the other three village masters hurriedly arrived from behind, they saw only corpses scattered all over the place. The master of his own village was sitting on the shaft of the cart, holding a handful of gold beads in his hand, playing with them like marbles. The lid of a box of jewelry had been pried open, and various pearls and gems were scattered on the floor. Next to it was half a mutilated corpse.

This scene is simply... a picture of bandits plundering!

"Brother!"

"Why did you kill so many people again?"

The three of them screamed in pain, but Li Gui ordered:
"Go and chop off those heads and send them to the county town to report your merits."

"We should be rewarded for killing the bandits who attacked and killed the officers and soldiers."

The three of them only looked at the carts of gold and jewels, fearing that they would cost no less than a hundred thousand gold. How could they be thieves? How could they believe it?

Zhu Fu looked around, sighed, called the other two people aside, and whispered:

"Just looking at the treasures in this team, you can tell that the owner of this car has a great background."

"If the news is leaked, I'm afraid there will be trouble later."

"For the current plan, we can only avoid disaster by following Brother Li Gui's method and labeling all these people as thieves."

"I just saw that many people escaped alive. This is not possible. We must find them and silence them."

The three of them had decided on a plan and immediately sent out a large number of people to hunt and avenge the dead brothers in the mountain village.

Only dead, not alive!
　The birthday card here is from the fourth year of Zhenghe, and the one by Yang Zhi is from the fifth year of Zhenghe.

　　It is understandable that Taishi Cai celebrates his birthday every year, after all, every passing year is less and less.

　　By the way, Taishi Cai’s birthday is February 2th.
