【Chapter 103】I want to take the chestnut from the fire, but I am afraid of burning

It is said that every midnight, under the cliff near the Eagle Nest Peak, there are groups of wild wolves that howl all night. There are many wolves, wild boars, red deer and other animals in Helan Mountain, which often attack pastures and people's houses, and many military households have been injured by wolves. Even, some people have seen the infestation of the golden leopard on the mountain near the Eagle Nest Peak.

The leopard is the most valuable prey in Helan Mountain, and a good leopard skin can be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver in Ningxia Town. If you sell it in a big city, it is estimated that it can be sold for 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver. Of course, it is not easy for you to hunt the leopard. In the hundreds of years in Ningxia Town, I have not heard of anyone hunting the golden leopard.

"Let's go!"

"Go back!"

Xu Xingxia waved his hand and said indifferently.

"Da Da Da!"

The sound of horses' hooves was crisp, and Xu Xingxia and his party quickly returned to Niujiaodun.

The military families who were kidnapped to Diaowo Peak were soon released back to their hometowns. Before leaving, Xu Xingxia specially warned them that everything about Diaowo Peak must not be leaked, otherwise, it will be a leak of military secrets and they will be held responsible. Leaking military aircraft is a serious crime, at least it is killing the head and stealing the house, and at worst it is even the nine clans, those military households are frightened, where do they dare to mention the three words of Diaowofeng?

After staying at Niujiaodun for a while, Xu Xingxia took people to Weizhenbao overnight. Wang Shoulu is dead, and Weizhen Fort is his territory. He wants to seize the opportunity to take control of Fort Weizhen, and create an established fact, so that the people above have nothing to do.

...... "Waste! ”

"What do you eat?"

"The two of you, one is a hundred households, and the other is a calmer, why have you been made to lose your temper by others? He Xu Xingxia has three heads and six arms, so you don't have any way to deal with him? What am I doing with all this waste of you? ”

In a certain mansion in Pingyu City, Zhang Qiuqing was blazing and scolding angrily. Chen Hai stood in front of him, his head almost drooping into his crotch. The current Zhang Qiuqing doesn't look like a deputy Qianhu at all, but like a ruffian old man, and the spit splashed on Chen Hai's face.

Zhang Qiuqing was sure that Wang Shoulu must have died in the hands of Xu Xingxia. What kind of horse thief or something, it's all. Such a result made Zhang Qiuqing feel too depressed. With Zhao Erlong's help, Wang Shoulu didn't even touch the skin of the horn pier, so one died, the other was crippled, and the rest were frightened. It's really too much. The divisive policy he carefully planned died before it could be implemented.

The most terrible thing is that after Wang Shoulu's death, his control of Weizhen Fort was completely lost. This is completely stealing chickens and not eating rice, not only did not control the horn pier, but also lost Weizhen Fort. Fort Weizhen was originally under his direct jurisdiction, but it was impossible for him to return to Fort Weizhen. Fort Wiltown is too unsafe. Therefore, he must use the hands of others to control Fort Willing. Wang Shoulu was originally a good watchdog, but unfortunately, this time, this watchdog was killed.

"Xu Xingxia, I'm not done with you!"

Zhang Qiuqing gritted his teeth and swore secretly in his heart.

He walked around the hall, thinking about how to deal with Xu Xingxia.

The best way, of course, is to summon Xu Xingxia alone, and then ambush the knife and axe man and kill him. There are many such examples in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". As long as Xu Xingxia is dead, other problems will be simple. However, this strategy seems simple, and it is not easy to implement. By his side, there is no master who can deal with Xu Xingxia. With Lu Yide's skills, he can't beat Xu Xingxia, let alone others.

If he Zhang Qiuqing does this, he must ensure 100% success and there must be no risk of failure. If he didn't succeed and let Xu Xingxia escape, he would be completely finished. With Xu Xingxia's perverted archery skills, unless he Zhang Qiuqing stays in the copper wall every day, he will definitely not be able to escape the fate of being pierced through the heart by an arrow. After thinking about it, Zhang Qiuqing felt that the risk of doing this was still too big and not worth it.

Finding someone to assassinate Xu Xingxia is, of course, also a good way. As long as you find the right killer, all problems will be solved. Not only can you kill Xu Xingxia, but you can also ensure that you will not be exposed. The problem is, this killer is hard to find. In fact, even if someone is willing to go, whether they can kill Xu Xingxia or not, it depends on two words. In case he can't kill Xu Xingxia and leaks the news, he Zhang Qiuqing will also be in great danger.

The most helpless way, of course, is to charge Xu Xingxia with rebellion and send troops to arrest him. Xu Xingxia's current gathering of minions is not very numerous, and his combat effectiveness is not particularly strong. As long as an elite army of a few hundred people is dispatched, it is still possible to kill Xu Xingxia. But in doing so, it is very likely that Xu Xingxia will be reversed. If someone else was forced to rebel, Zhang Qiuqing might not be too worried. However, if it was Xu Xingxia who was forced to rebel, Zhang Qiuqing would feel that his head was big.

Paying a heavy price, not to mention for the time being, if Xu Xingxia runs away, the consequences will be even more troublesome. As long as Xu Xingxia is alive, he doesn't even think that he can fall asleep at night. Besides, even the eldest prince of the Tatar Kylgin tribe can't kill this Xu Xingxia, with a person like Qianhu, can he be Xu Xingxia's opponent? Don't go over there, Xu Xingxia rose up to rebel, and the thousands of households here were served in one pot. Thinking about Xu Xingxia's perverted archery, Zhang Qiuqing shuddered.

After thinking about it, Zhang Qiuqing couldn't think of a foolproof plan that could wipe out Xu Xingxia while ensuring his own safety. He is a deputy thousand households, and Xu Xingxia is only a hundred households, and the status of the two is actually very different. However, he just couldn't arrest the other party. Seriously, Zhang Qiuqing felt that he was indeed too aggrieved.

"My lord, the thousand households are here." Suddenly, a family member came in a hurry to report.

"Peng Feng is here?" Zhang Qiuqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, feeling quite surprised. Although he and Peng Feng both live in Pingyu City, the distance between the two families is only thirty zhang, but Peng Feng usually holds his own identity and never takes the initiative to come to the door. If there is anything, Peng Feng sent someone to inform him. Peng Feng took the initiative to come to the door today, could it be that the sun came out of the west?

Immediately, Zhang Qiuqing felt that something was wrong. If you don't have anything to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Palace, since Peng Feng is here, he must have something important. The Lord of Qianhu took the initiative to come to the door, did he come to investigate Xu Xingxia's responsibility? That's not bad. If Peng Feng is willing to come forward, he will be a little more sure. The most important thing is that Peng Feng came forward in person, and he Zhang Qiuqing was safe. In case Xu Xingxia wants to settle accounts after the autumn, he is also looking for Peng Feng.

Zhang Qiuqing hurriedly walked to the door and found that it was indeed Peng Feng who came. Peng Feng's face was a little bad, gloomy and terrifying, and it seemed that he had also been hit by Wang Shoulu's death. Seriously speaking, Wang Shoulu did a lot of things for Peng Feng in private. Now that Wang Shoulu is dead, Peng Feng must feel that he has lost a capable subordinate, and it is natural for him to come to Xu Xingxia now for bad luck. Zhang Qiuqing hurriedly said: "I don't know if the Lord of Qianhu is here, I missed the welcome, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

Peng Feng nodded, and after entering the hall, he sat down, regardless of the fact that there was still a Chen Hai standing next to him, and said sullenly: "I just received the news that it was that Xu Xingxia, the son of the general soldier, and the son of the governor, were offended. Now the two sons are looking for trouble with him. ”

Zhang Qiuqing said in disbelief: "He ...... Offended two sons at the same time? ”

Peng Feng nodded, his mood was obviously a little irritable, his eyes were a little red, and it seemed that he was under pressure from the two sons. He said angrily: "This Xu Xingxia is simply too lawless, and he dares to interfere with the actions of the two princes. Didn't he know who he was? What a damn thing! ”

Zhang Qiuqing's face is really wonderful. This Xu Xingxia is looking for death by himself, but he can't complain about others. A small hundred households, who dared to provoke the chief soldier and the governor, simply thought that he did not die fast enough. The two sons, as long as any one of them, can wipe him out with a slight finger.

Chen Hai next to him also had dull eyes, slow breathing, and fluctuating heart. He was also frightened by the information revealed by Peng Feng. Damn, this Xu Xingxia is simply brainless! The Commander-in-Chief and the Governor, is that what he can provoke? What do you say this Xu Xingxia is going to do? Is it really to kill officials and rebel?

Zhang Qiuqing only came to his senses at this time, Peng Feng did not come here for Wang Shoulu's affairs at all, but for the two sons of Ningxia Town. Offending the two sons, the surname is even more serious than killing Wang Shoulu. No wonder Peng Feng couldn't hold it anymore and took the initiative to come to the door. However, Zhang Qiuqing is also an old slippery head, and he can't feel that he can gain any benefits in this matter. He hesitated and said, "That...... What shall we do? ”

Peng Feng slapped the table hard, and the teapots and cups on the table were all shaken and jumped, making a clanging sound. His face turned pale, and he said angrily, "What else can I do?" Immediately arrest him and give him to the two sons to deal with! ”

Zhang Qiuqing Huo Ran stood up and was about to give the order to arrest people. However, as soon as he stood up, he immediately realized that something was wrong. Damn, you have to arrest someone! If it is someone else, there is no problem, but the person to be arrested is Xu Xingxia! There are more than a dozen family members around him Zhang Qiuqing, why should he arrest Xu Xingxia? Even Zhao Erlong, who had just been recruited, was crippled by Xu Xingxia, what capital did he have to arrest Xu Xingxia? There was no way, Zhang Qiuqing had to say in embarrassment: "That...... I have to take action from a thousand households......"

Peng Feng shook his head and said, "It's inconvenient for me to make a move." ”

Zhang Qiuqing subconsciously asked, "Is this ...... Why? ”

Peng Feng pressed his palm on the table, and said with a gloomy face: "It's not time yet." ”

Zhang Qiuqing's heart immediately scolded. Grass, if you don't make a move, then you come to me and say a bird's egg! He's not a fool, and he skewered together the causes and consequences of things, and he understood it all at once. Obviously, Peng Feng was also afraid of Xu Xingxia's cruelty, and he was afraid that Xu Xingxia would be remembered, so he would come to him in person. The purpose is, of course, to take matters into their own hands and take responsibility for it. In case Xu Xingxia can't be caught, it is he Zhang Qiuqing who is unlucky, not Peng Feng.

Cao, you want to please the two sons, but you don't dare to offend Xu Xingxia, how can there be such a good thing in the world? Zhang Qiuqing secretly slandered himself. If you don't make a move, am I, the deputy Qianhu, an idiot? Help you pick up this hot potato? Zhang Qiuqing said embarrassedly: "Lord Qianhu, you also know that there are ...... around me."

What he meant, of course, was to hope that Peng Feng would dispatch his family members to openly arrest Xu Xingxia. Peng Feng's side, there are hundreds of armed soldiers, and they still have some combat effectiveness. As for whether Xu Xingxia can be caught, Zhang Qiuqing doesn't care. As long as Peng Feng's family is dispatched, this bad debt, Xu Xingxia will definitely be recorded on Peng Feng's head.

Peng Feng shook his head and said, "Who told you to use force?" Wouldn't you think of something else? ”

Zhang Qiuqing's meaning, how could he not understand? However, he would never use such a stupid method. So many Tatar cavalry under Sobud were not Xu Xingxia's opponents in the end, and with the hundreds of famous men in his hands, he wanted to capture Xu Xingxia? Isn't that a joke? If you can't catch it, your own life will be in danger.

Zhang Qiuqing looked at Peng Feng suspiciously, obviously not understanding what he meant. Or, he had understood, but he still pretended not to understand. Anyway, he had made up his mind, no matter what, he would not personally order Xu Xingxia to be arrested. He would never lead Xu Xingxia's hatred directly to himself. Peng Feng wants to take the chestnut from the fire, but he is afraid of the heat, why shouldn't he?

Peng Feng glanced at Zhang Qiuqing twice, and said meaningfully: "Doesn't Xu Xingxia need combat exploits?" You can send him more battle exploits! ”

Zhang Qiuqing still didn't quite understand, and looked dazed.

Peng Feng pointed to the north, sneered slightly, and said gloomily: "Their little prince is dead, they can't give up, right?" ”

Zhang Qiuqing suddenly realized, and he opened his mouth to speak.

Peng Feng stood up, waved his hand, signaled that Zhang Qiuqing didn't need to say much, and said coldly: "Weizhenbao is your jurisdiction, and Niujiaodun belongs to the jurisdiction of Weizhenbao. Otherwise, the two sons and gentlemen will be the only ones who ask. ”

Then he raised his head and walked away.

Zhang Qiuqing sent Peng Feng to the door, and when he came back, his face was already gloomy. Peng Feng's intention was obviously to use the hands of the Tartars to kill Xu Xingxia. However, the matter of contacting the Tartars was handed over to him Zhang Qiuqing. This is where Zhang Qiuqing is most dissatisfied. Damn, you want to borrow the hand of the Tartar to get rid of Xu Xingxia, but you want Lao Tzu to come forward, in case the matter is exposed, wouldn't Lao Tzu be burdened with notoriety?

"Peng Feng! you! ”

Looking at Peng Feng's distant back, Zhang Qiuqing scolded.
