retaliate

Chapter 190

The assassin was brought back, and the arrow shot him in the shoulder.

Chen Huagu, a well-known doctor from Taiping, was called, and just took a look at it, then shook his head, "The internal organs have also been injured."

Li Han looked at him, "This person is so determined, isn't he good at medicine?"

In his opinion, it is impossible to have any famous doctors in places like Taiping.

The old thief said: "Every year, he experiences at least dozens of stab wounds, and at most hundreds of them."

This is better than the famous doctors in Chang'an... Li Han: "..."

"Punishment!" Yang Xuan no longer considered life and death.

Li Han was eager to try, "I'll do it."

The old thief coughed dryly, "This is the job of a villain."

"I've seen the execution by the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Li Han used to be a high-ranking nobleman, but now he wants to experience the fireworks in the world.

The old thief glanced at Yang Xuan.

"Give it to him."

Li Han nodded politely to Yiniang and Zhang Siniang, "There will be some big disturbances later."

He carried the assassin into the house, and the old thief walked up to Cao Ying, "Why does this old man think he is just trying to plot something!"

Yiniang is not alone, and she can't see through another stick... Cao Ying glanced at Yiniang, smiled, and said calmly: "He wants to take the initiative to blend in."

"Yiniang said that King Liang is an old dude, and Li Zhen is a bastard, but a grandson wants to join the gang, so she is afraid of being cheated."

"Lang Jun and he saved each other on the grassland."

"The savior will also turn against each other."

"Do you think the old man is an idiot? The important thing is that Liang Wangfu is willing to sit and watch him die in Jibobu for money. This person has no relatives. Only in Taiping can he feel that he is still alive here, understand? "

The old thief wondered, "The old man's relatives are all dead, and his family is alive and well."

Cao Ying: "..."

"Lang Jun treated him with sincerity, let him practice in the army, opened it up for him to see, let him ponder. He even let him go to the county school at any time. Now even the backyard is allowed to come and go freely, what is Lang Jun thinking? You should know, right?"

"The old man knows this." The old thief nodded, "I'm just wondering if it's worth it, you may have seen through this person?"

"This man... the old man doesn't really see through."

"Hey! It's rare that you, old Cao, are humble."

"what……"

There were screams in the room.

What the hell!

Wang Laoer's hair stood on his head, "It's a ghost."

Yiniang was not frightened by the screams, but was frightened by Wang Laoer, and she stretched out her hand to slap him.

"what!"

I don't know what method Li Han used, but the assassin's screams seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hells, not human voices.

The screams continued.

"I say!"

Just as Cao Ying was about to go in, she heard Li Han's calm voice inside.

"Confessing so quickly, I'm afraid there will be false ones, so wait."

"what!"

Zhang Siniang crossed her arms, rubbing the goosebumps on her arms.

On the contrary, Yi Niang remained indifferent.

When she was in the palace, she had seen worse. She arched Cao Ying with her shoulders, "Tell me, is this person a little twisted?"

Cao Ying pondered for a while, "Distortion is not accurate, what Lang Jun said about abnormality is more appropriate."

"I'm recruiting!"

Confessions came out soon.

"It's a tribe under Vase. They used to make a lot of money from trade. But since the opening of Taiping, many merchants have moved here. Their business is bleak and they can't make ends meet, so they want to assassinate Zitai. Taiping If there is a mess, a new county magistrate will most likely stay behind closed doors."

Li Han frowned, "The method is a bit simple."

There were people outside, the old thief went over to ask, and came back and said: "Mr. Lang, several merchants who came to trade today were killed, less than three miles outside the city."

"Extremely rampant!" Cao Ying was also angry.

Li Han rubbed the scabs on his hands, "This is a gang. They killed Zitai, and then intercepted a few businessmen. This is killing chickens and monkeys. Naturally, those businessmen dare not come again."

"Go and see."

Outside the city, Nongha knelt on the ground.Just now, the last partner swallowed his last breath in front of him, tears streaming down his face before he died.

A man bleeds but does not shed tears, but at the last moment of his life, he shed all the tears of his life.

"Pitiful."

"Someone assassinated Yang Mingfu before, and now someone intercepted and killed the businessman. This means that I am not allowed to wait for the Taiping trade."

"Damn, who is this man?"

"I won't dare to come in the future."

"That's right! Although you earn less money from trading elsewhere, there is no risk. When you come to Taiping Trading, you accidentally traded your life."

"Yang Mingfu has come out."

Yang Xuan came out with people.

The accompanying sergeants stared at the people around them vigilantly, especially the old thief and Wang Laoer.

"Yang Mingfu!"

Nong Ha knelt down, choked with sobs and said, "According to our rules, if a brother is killed, I must find the murderer to avenge him. Otherwise, I will have no face to go back to see their wives and children."

"This is a provocation against Taiping, Chenzhou, Beijiang and Datang!"

As soon as Yang Xuan opened his mouth, he determined the matter.

"It is a crazy provocation to the peace-loving people in the grassland!"

The merchants cheered up.

"The murderer has been found. The purpose of the attack is to threaten the businessmen who come to Taiping for trade. The tribe behind it has sinister intentions!"

The merchants looked sad, obviously a bit sad.

"They went to the city to trade, they paid taxes according to the Taiping rules, they honestly earned money and food for the family, their hands were innocent, and now they lie here silently."

"When they paid taxes, they signed a contract with Taiping. If they die because of trading with Taiping, who will avenge them!?"

Yang Xuan drew his sword.

"Peace!"

Amidst the sound of countless swords being drawn, the merchants lowered their heads.

Businessmen have a reputation similar to thieves in this era. They can always use various methods to steal money from people's pockets.

In Datang, the status of merchants is not high...it used to be even lower.

In the grasslands, merchants are just a communication tool.

So they can't count on anyone to make decisions for themselves.

"Paying taxes means signing a protection contract. If so, the old man has signed countless contracts in his life, but he will still be robbed."

"have a look."

"Yes, look."

A group of businessmen were all looking at Yang Xuan, and immediately spread the news of today's events to the places they passed by.

——Some people were killed because of trade with Taiping, and the Taiping people said they would avenge them.

When the news came out, it was all laughter.

Businessmen die when they die, and as long as they have enough benefits, they will still take endless risks to come to Taiping.

In the eyes of everyone, Yang Xuan's words are a comfort.

Including that tribe.

The tribal leader, Zu Han, is a burly man, holding the leg of lamb and biting it vigorously.His hair danced and he looked like a lion.

Tiger Foot Han, this is his bandit number in the Vasie Department.

"leader."

Tu Duo, Zuhan's most loyal subordinate, entered the tent.

"how?"

Tu Duo said: "A few merchants have been killed, but Yang Xuan's fate is high, and someone around him blocked the arrow."

Zuhan put down the leg of lamb, rubbed his hands, and the crumbs of meat fell on the ground. A dog squatting next to him glanced at him, Zuhan nodded, and the dog came to lick it.

After eating, the big dog lay down at Zuhan's feet.

Zu Han put one foot on the big dog's head and said casually, "How about Taiping?"

"Yang Xuan said in public that he wanted to avenge those businessmen."

Zu Han was taken aback, then laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha!"

The guard outside was worried and looked inside, thinking that the laughter was too crazy.

After a long time, Zuhan finally stopped and gasped: "Don't worry about it, those businessmen will restrain themselves in the future, and we will continue to do business."

Tu Duo said worriedly: "Boss, those merchants will probably wait and see for a while to kill the greedy adventurers. As long as the goods in Taiping are cheaper and more, they will definitely continue to go."

"Then continue to kill."

Zu Han picked up the leg of lamb, and smiled sinisterly, "They are scared to kill them, and they will come back naturally."

"I'm afraid that Taiping will send troops."

"Do you think Yang Xuan's words will be taken seriously?"

"..."

Zu Han tore a piece of mutton, and said vaguely: "He was assassinated and didn't think about revenge, and he didn't shout to kill. But because of a few irrelevant businessmen, he was furious and vowed to send troops to take revenge... He If it is not the gods, the gods will ignore themselves and only care about mortals."

……

The cavalry has assembled.

As soon as the merchants left, Yang Xuan's response came.

Naturally, King Wei wanted to go hack and kill, and rode his horse with Li Han, "Is it worth it for a few businessmen?"

"How do you know that he is not for yourself?" Li Han asked.

King Wei said: "If it's for him to avenge himself, Yang Xuan will let others lead a team to attack instead of going by himself."

"What do you mean?"

"He will go by himself. This is official business. The king didn't like him before. After thinking about it for a while, he can still distinguish between public and private."

"I have seen the master."

Wu Da came with more than a hundred guards. He dismounted and walked over. After saluting, he reverently kissed Yang Xuan's shoe upper.

"lets go."

Five hundred riders set off like this.

The three businessmen were on their way home when they heard the sound of horseshoes behind them and looked back.

"It's the Taiping cavalry!"

"Where are they going?"

The cavalry rushed past them, Qiu did nothing wrong.

A businessman ventured to shout: "Dare to ask where the army is going?"

A cavalryman looked back on horseback, "Revenge!"

The businessman was stunned. After the cavalry walked away, he patted his head and said, "Is this really going to take revenge?"

"Maybe it's just for show, to see, just for us to see."

The three businessmen sighed for a long time, until the sun went down, and then they found a place to camp.

Yang Xuan is also camping.

Li Han set up a tent with the sergeants, covered in sweat, but still enjoyed it.

Yang Xuan and King Wei squatted together, watching the sunset.

"The sunset is so beautiful. I don't know if the sunset seen by Chang'an is also like this."

It is rare for King Wei to be so emotional.

"It's burnt yellow, the setting sun looks like a pancake!"

Wang Lao Er watched the sunset from behind, rubbed his belly, and went to find the old thief's food.

A prince is sad about spring and autumn, and a fool is thinking about food happily, but Yang Xuan feels that it is particularly harmonious.

"Aren't you worried about offending the Vasie Department?" Wei Wang's sentimentality was defeated by Wang Laoer, and he changed the topic of reality.

"I was worried before, but after returning from Tanzhou, these worries disappeared."

"Why? This king feels that Taiping is still no match for the Vasie Department."

"almost."

"Having more than a hundred warriors calling you master will not help."

"Isn't there still a king here?"

"..."

King Wei thought for a long time, "You have such a thick skin!"

King Wei is here, if there is a panic in Taiping, he can naturally find a way to get some troops to protect himself.

No matter how cold the emperor was, the local government would not dare to let the prince die under his nose.

Yang Xuan looked at him, "You think too much."

"What do you mean?"

"There are loose alien races in the grassland. Today they are under the command of the Vasie tribe, and tomorrow they may go to others."

King Wei was taken aback.

Someone sat down behind him, and Li Han's voice came, "Zitai wants to thank you today."

Yang Xuan said with a smile: "In the past, some people wanted to buy a Chollima, but the origin of the Chollima was too far away. The merchants were worried that no one would trade them. The man asked the people below to come to see him with a bone of a horse, saying that it was the leg of a Chollima. bone, the man paid a thousand gold to buy it...then the merchants really sold the Chollima."

"The deaths of those merchants are your bones." King Wei felt a little uncomfortable.

Li Han sat up and gave Yang Xuan a wink.

King Wei was hit.

The eldest nephew wanted to counterattack with all his heart, get the prince down, enter the East Palace by himself, and then ascend the throne as emperor.

But his methods are still a lot worse, a little rough.

Yang Xuan comforted: "Among the county magistrates in the world, I say that I am the second, and no one dares to say that I am the first."

"Your way of comforting people is also shameless." King Wei got up, "This king is not that weak."

Li Han said: "Do you want to gather foreigners as your subordinates and fight against the Vasie tribe?"

"Can't you?"

"It's okay, it's just that those people are hard to control."

"There's always a way."

"This is called using barbarians to control barbarians!" Suzaku said proudly.

On the third day, a tribe appeared ahead.

"This is it." The shepherd who led the way shrank back.

"The money will be given to you after the verification later." The old thief threatened: "If you lie, I will drag you to death with a horse!"

"The villain doesn't dare." The shepherd said in panic.

Yang Xuan looked at the situation, "The tribe is not big, about seven to eight hundred people, scattered."

"This king wants to lead an army alone." King Wei stared at Yang Xuan while pressing the handle of the huge knife.

Do it if you don't give it.

"The king leads 100 people, go to the left."

"The old thief leads 100 people, go to the right."

"Leader!"

"Hold the opponent from behind..." Yang Xuan looked at the crowd.

Nan He didn't come, but Zhao Youcai came.

Li Han said lightly: "Who else is it to me!"

Zhao Youcai had a bitter face and wanted to fight, but this is the son of the clan.

"Jianming goes, Zhao Youcai follows."

Jianming is Li Han's word.

Yang Xuan brought more than a hundred guards, plus dozens of Taiping cavalry, ready to make a surprise attack from the front.

Li Han and Zhao Youcai led the troops to circle behind the small tribe.

It was morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the weather was unbelievably good.

Guessing that Li Han was in place, Yang Xuan waited for a while.

"Attack!"

He pulled out the horizontal knife and pointed it forward.

"For the master!"

Wu Da beside him shouted frantically.

More than a hundred people shouted in unison, "For the master!"

Yang Xuan: "..."

At this moment, Zu Han was in a daze in his tent.

When he heard the shouts, Tu Duo also rushed in.

"Boss, someone made a surprise attack!"

"Get on the horse and prepare to fight!"

"Assemble, all assemble!"

Zu Han and more than [-] cavalry hastily assembled were just about to attack when Yang Xuan arrived.

A tribe of 800 people can pull out more than [-] horsemen, which means that the whole people are soldiers.

"who is it?"

Looking at the guards in front of him, Zu Han hissed and asked.

These guards could shoot arrows on horseback, and the rain of arrows caused heavy casualties to the warriors of this small tribe.

Zu Han led his subordinates to rush and kill, and was finally trapped in a small circle.

Yang Xuan was surrounded and stepped forward.

"Who are you?" Zu Han asked panting.

"Raise my banner." Yang Xuan wanted to imitate the characters in the scroll by snapping his fingers, so he tried it.

Snapped!
Not bad!

Crisp!

Behind him, Wang Lao Er raised a large banner with a spear.

The banner is waving in the wind.

"It's Yang Ziqi!"

An old man in the tribe shouted in despair: "It's the dog Yang!"

This time Li Han was considered a serious battle to kill, and a lot of blood was sprayed on his body.He rode over and asked, "How to deal with them?"

Yang Xuan said:

"Anyone who dares to hold a weapon will be killed."

The sound of horseshoes immediately drowned out the people in the encirclement.

"The corpses were collected."

"Zhujingguan!"
