The rain in Zhide County was still falling, and Guo Ren took the two mice to the cellar of the Wang family's compound next door to the county government, and coerced and lured them with the silver of the white flowers: "If this thing is done, you can do things under the hands of my family, not only can you be an official but also have endless silver, but if you two go back tomorrow, then Lao Tzu will advise you to hurry away and fly high, as long as you are caught by Lao Tzu, you will definitely be crushed."

The two rats patted their chests and promised that they would reform their evil ways and return to the right and devote themselves to joining the army and not being thieves, and they would definitely contribute well tomorrow.

On the other side, Chang Yu was mobilizing the prisoners in the cell: "Do you know the name?" ”

"I know, the military master is asking us to kill people to show loyalty, right, you say kill whom, I'll do it" A thief shouted, Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Kill thirty, can you?" ”

"Uh...... Then let's do it together, "The thieves said a word, and I said a word, and it was very noisy."

"As long as this job is done beautifully, you can follow me in the future, and this job is not for you to do in vain, all the income belongs to you" Chang Yu began to give sweetness, and a thief was very clever: "Listen to the official's words, it seems that the person we want to kill is not an ordinary person, but it is not ......"

"Tiger Tip knows," Chang Yu asked with a heav.

"Yu Datou, does the official want us to take Yu Datou's stockade......" The captives were stunned, but they all frowned again: "The terrain of the tiger tip is dangerous, but it is not easy to fight, just rely on our dozens of people to ......"

"What if they are not in the stockade?" Chang Yu smiled, and the captives were confused.

Early the next morning, Chang Yu got up and saw that the rain had stopped, but the weather was still cloudy and heavy, and it might fall again at any time, so Chen Ruxin came over when he was washing: "Dugong, the old master brought more than 20 young men and waited to see you outside the yamen."

Chang Yu and his entourage stayed in Zhide County for a short time, but the yamen here has no officials and no soldiers, and it is a state of no government, which is easy to have an accident, so he will launch the respected old master for the time being, and let him recruit some young people to be responsible for patrolling the city and fighting more matters, but I didn't expect this old master to be very efficient in handling things at noon yesterday, and brought people over early this morning.

"You can go and explain, and by the way, take some silver for them" Chang Yu asked Chen Ruxin to deal with it, he didn't like to communicate with people like the old master, and he always felt awkward and there was no topic.

As soon as Chen Ruxin walked on his front foot, he came over: "The flying rat is out of the city" Chang Yu snorted: "What about Chen Suole?" ”

"He left earlier, before dawn and took more than 20 brothers with him."

Chang Yu nodded, and asked again: "When is the right time for those captives to leave?" ”

"It's almost late afternoon when the rats are gone, so you can let them eat and drink enough and then go to the stepping spots, and then lurk around noon."

"Duke, the old master wants to see you and talk" At this time, Chen Ruxin ran from outside the yamen and shook his head with a wry smile: "I said that I have something important to discuss with you."

Hey, Chang Yu smiled bitterly, he couldn't figure out what the old master could discuss with him, but he couldn't let the old master go to the lobby to wait for him.

Hastily ate breakfast and went to the lobby, the old master has been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Chang Yu coming in, he quickly put down the teacup and got up to salute, Chang Yu arched his hand and let him sit down and went straight to the topic and asked, "What does the master have to do?" ”

Unexpectedly, the old master was more direct than him: "Ask for money!" ”

Chang Yu was stunned, he had already asked Chen Ruxin to take some silver just now, isn't it too little?

That's really a lot less, the old master really came to ask for money, and the amount is not small, but not for himself, but for the squire in the city.

After Jiang Yitao entered the city, he tortured the rich gentry, some of them directly ruined their families, and some of them broke their wealth to avoid disasters, anyway, they looted a lot of money, the old master meant that those who were ruined didn't care, but there were a few big families who still wanted to go back.

Very sensible, not all, can ask for a part.

This...... Chang Yu didn't want to give it in his heart, but he couldn't find an excuse for a while, after all, the thief army didn't escape from the city, you can't say that people took the silver away, if you cheat, it will affect the image of the officers and soldiers.

"It's not a secret, we did steal some silver, but there is not much left, only about 10,000 taels left, according to the thief's confession, most of the heads have been transported elsewhere" Chang Yu lied without blinking his eyes, but the master believed it, and he was very excited, because he could hear from his words that the young general really meant to return.

You must know that this is something that he didn't dare to mention in previous years, and he also saw that the young general was easy-going and upright, so he took the liberty of trying it, but he didn't think it would be ...... What a man!

"Then, dare to ask the general, how much can you refund?" The master stammered a little excitedly, and Chang Yu was embarrassed: "I don't want to leave a penny, but after all, it is a city that the brothers are desperately trying to capture, and I always have to take something out to reward, otherwise I won't be able to bring this soldier in the future......"

"That's natural, it should be, it should be" The master quickly stood up: "How many generals keep for themselves, we have no complaints and absolutely approve" Chang Yu got off the donkey: "Then I will let my subordinates count the specific number, except for leaving some rewards for the soldiers, the rest will be returned, as for who will be refunded, how many generals will be refunded, it will be up to the master and a few squires to decide, but Ben will hope to be fair and just, and he can't fatten himself and ignore the orphans and widows of other people's families."

The meaning of this is very clear, now the eight of you in the city are the right to say, but the thieves have tortured more than eight households, and you can't divide the eight households equally, and the others have to take care of it somewhat.

"We will never let down the general's trust, and we are willing to accept the general's supervision...... Master felt that he had done a very remarkable thing today, and he was able to pry money out of the mouths of the officers and soldiers, which was enough for him to brag about for a lifetime, and his reputation in Zhide County and even the entire Chizhou Prefecture would be like thunder in the future.

Since he wants to have a good reputation, he will not do two days off, Chang Yu decided to open a warehouse in addition to the loose silver, Jiang Yitao has saved a lot of grain and grass in this business for several months, but now he can't use it and don't have so much manpower to transport it, so he will take out some of it for the people.

The news of the opening of the warehouses and the release of grain by the officers and soldiers soon spread throughout the county, and the people beat gongs and drums and took to the streets to cheer.

However, the atmosphere in Anqing City, which is a hundred miles away, is diametrically opposed to this place, and the whole city is shrouded in panic and suppressed emotions, and a big event has happened here.

To be exact, when the sky was still dark, Li Yan, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up, and Fan Jiaqian appeared outside his tent with a solemn face.

"Grandpa Fan, you are not in the city...... Isn't something wrong? Li Yan frowned, and Fan Jiaqian exhaled deeply: "General Li, Liu Zeqing was stabbed to death!" ”

"What! Liu Zeqing died, how did he die? ”

Soon the news spread throughout the battalion of officers and soldiers, and the sleeping generals rushed to hear the news and were shocked by the news.

"He entered the barracks to torture the prisoners, and someone suddenly attacked him and stabbed him to death...... "Fan Jiaqian felt like a dream when he said this, and it was not real at all.

He was not in the barracks at the time of the incident, but led the Gongzi battalion to receive inspections everywhere in the city to prevent officers and soldiers from disturbing the people, he didn't even know when Liu Zeqing went to the barracks, thinking that those bigwigs were happy in the yamen, as for their men going to the barracks and what they were going to do, he naturally knew, but he had no right to interfere, not to mention Li Yan's acquiescence, that is, Chang Yuzai also turned a blind eye, what did the soldiers attack the city and kill the enemy? You have to let him have benefits, and he will work hard for you.

After getting the news of the riot in the military camp, Fan Jiaqian immediately mobilized people to support, and only after arriving did he know that dozens of prisoners were unwilling to be humiliated and tortured, and suddenly burst out and stabbed Liu Zeqing.

However, only a few dozen people rioted and were quickly suppressed, killing more than ten people on the spot, and the rest were tied up into zongzi after hearing it, but because of this sudden incident, the officers and soldiers stopped squeezing the prisoners and entered a state of readiness, Gao Jie even issued a military order, if there is any change, slaughter!

Although there were two or three thousand thieves in the barracks, their weapons had already been captured, and although there were only more than a thousand officers and soldiers to slaughter them, it was as if they were to be slaughtered, so those captives did not dare to move obediently.
