Longevity begins with a dog

Chapter 23 Do it! ! !

On the tenth day.

All the yamen servants who knew about it 'coincidentally' entered the rotation, and were summoned to the county yamen by Xu Chong.

Their eyes passed over Xu Chong under the eaves, and landed on the main seat in the hall.

There, sitting there was a blood-clothed man whose face could not be seen clearly.

Obviously, this is the big shot of the Blood Clothes Guard.

Everyone knows,

Looking at Xu Chong again, he has an extremely tired face, a slightly messy bun, and his wide official robe is full of folds.

Eyes... What kind of eyes is that?
Pain, unwillingness, intolerance, helplessness...

It looked like he clearly wanted to save them, but was powerless.

Sure enough, he was really going to die.

Lao Li was angry in his heart, and wanted to take a step to scold it so that he could have a good time before he died, but when he thought of his wife and children at home, he could only suppress this impulse.

Not long after, Xu Chong spoke.

"I believe you have already guessed some things. The matter is of great importance, so I won't hide it."

Xu Chong's eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces, and his voice was calm and powerful, "The purpose of the ten-day blockade and investigation is to catch a traitor from Taipingdao."

"Now, the whereabouts of this traitor have been grasped by the officer, and you are about to participate in the encirclement and suppression of this traitor."

"I know that you have been spreading rumors in private these past few days, saying that this traitor is extremely skilled."

"I can tell you responsibly that this is true."

"You may be injured, or you may die!"

As soon as the words fell, Fu Yuanlong in the hall frowned.

What did Xu Chong do?

Doesn't it shake the morale of the army to describe the strength of the enemy before the battle?
At this time, Xu Chong changed the topic.

"But I can assure you!"

"No matter what the price is, I, Xu Chong, will definitely do my best to save your lives!"

"You guys, would you like to believe me?"

All the yamen servants looked at each other in blank dismay.

Liu Er, Zhao Liu, Lao Li, Yang Laohun...about a dozen people spoke one after another.

"I believe!"

"I believe in adults!"

"I will do what the adults say!"

"..."

Driven by these people, hope sprouted in the hearts of the remaining ones, and they also echoed.

"it is good!"

Xu Chong raised his hand abruptly, "Let me arrange it next."

"Liu Er!"

"exist!"

"You take 20 people, ten crossbows, and go to the south wall to change defenses. The crossbowmen are hidden in the tower!"

"Yes!"

"Old bastard Yang!"

"exist!"

"You bring 20 people, five crossbows, and hide them at Old Man Zhou's house!"

"Yes!"

"Old Li!"

"exist!"

"You bring 20 people..."

After some arrangements, the hundred or so yamen servants were all arranged into an ambush circle.

"remember!"

Xu Chong shouted loudly again, "Do it after hearing my order, do you understand?"

"clear!!!"

Everyone responded in unison.

"Go."

Xu Chong waved his hand.

Everyone dispersed and rushed to their respective ambush locations.

After finishing all this, Xu Chong turned around and walked into the main hall, "Master Fu, do you think this arrangement is feasible?"

"You are very good, with brains and means, but you are a little soft-hearted."

Fu Yuanlong nodded, "It's just a group of ordinary people. If they die, they die. There's no need to tell them so much."

"When this matter is over, come with me. The county government is too small. Follow me, and you will see a wider world."

Hope you still think so when the time comes.

Xu Chong cupped his hands: "I can't ask for anything."

.........

"Liu Er, what's the situation now?"

At the corner outside the county office, Lao Li held Liu Er back, "Can your lord help us?"

"The adults have already hinted at us."

Liu Ersi looked around and said in a low voice.

"hint?"

Lao Li thought for a long time, but he didn't feel that he had received a hint.

"Didn't you notice, my lord... he didn't order to capture him alive!"

Liu Er narrowed his eyes, "This is tantamount to allowing us to kill that traitor!"

"Kill... I understand!"

Lao Li suddenly realized, "Indeed, only in this way can we reduce casualties as much as possible."

He couldn't understand what martial arts was, but he knew very well that even if it was just an ordinary person, capturing alive and killing them were two completely different levels of difficulty.

If the order was to capture him alive, because of his small family, he would not even dare to greet him with a knife.

But Xu Chong didn't say to capture them alive, so they can rely on their own strength and do everything possible to kill each other.

"But... can we kill that traitor?"

Lao Li doubted the ability of the brothers very much.

"do not know."

Liu Er took a deep look at Lao Li, "My lord, he can only do this."

"Only..."

Lao Li was taken aback for a moment, then reacted.

Xu Chong didn't order to capture them alive, even if the rebels were killed, those government servants would not be guilty if they didn't know.

If the rebels can't be killed, they will naturally die, so there is nothing to say.

"This is the only chance your lord has won for us, and I know what to do."

Old Li clenched his waist knife tightly, and his expression unknowingly became stern, "If I die, please help me say thank you to your lord."

"I hope you don't die, go and tell the adults yourself."

Liu Er smiled, turned around and joined his team.

It's not a thank you thing if you're not dead.

Lao Li said something silently in his heart, then turned and left.

.........

At the end of Yin time.

The county seat is still locked down, and the Nanchengmen area is just like other places, empty and silent.

All the ambush personnel have already taken their positions, hiding in the darkness and waiting silently.

As the person in charge of the ambush, Xu Chong was staying with Fu Yuanlong on the watchtower two hundred steps away.

This place was chosen by Fu Yuanlong. It has the advantage of vision, and it is not too far from the ambush circle.

Xu Chong's face was tense, he stared at the ambush circle, with a conscientious appearance.

Fu Yuanlong wanted to laugh a little, but at the same time he was more satisfied with Xu Chong.

These days, it is too difficult to find such an upright subordinate.

Hmm... How about giving him some credit for letting him step into the martial arts before the time?
Fu Yuanlong suddenly had this idea.

Because the minimum standard for joining the Blood Clothes Guard is the first level of martial arts.

Time passed in silence.

At Mao, the sky was slightly brighter.

A figure wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat appeared on the edge of the ambush circle and walked slowly inside.

Xu Chong's heart instantly rose to his throat.

If all his judgments are correct, then the figure in the bamboo hat must be Huo Tong disguised as a water ghost!

'Hold on!Don't panic! '

'Huo Tong's current position is not enough! '

'If you want to kill, you have to wait for him to go deeper. '

Xu Chong stared at the man in the bamboo hat, constantly calculating the position in his mind.

almost!

Soon!
Two more steps!

Correct!
It's now!

Xu Chong lifted his breath, and the command of 'do it' was about to come out.

However, at this moment, a hand was suddenly placed on his shoulder!
It's Fu Yuanlong!

"take it easy."

Fu Yuanlong explained with a smile, "This is not the person we want to catch. The real traitor hasn't appeared yet."

"..."

Xu Chong's whole body was stiff, and his heart fell straight into the abyss.

He had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't expect that Fu Yuanlong was so patient with him!

I thought that as long as I gave the order first, I could push it to nervousness and ignorance afterwards.

He never expected that Fu Yuanlong would explain to himself the first time!
Aren't you the Chief Banner of the Bloody Guards?
Aren't you the aloof Mrs. Fu?

What a fart you are explaining a sesame-sized classic history to me!

What about force? !

Xu Chong was incompetent and furious.

Now that he knew that the target was not the man in the bamboo hat, if he gave an order again, he would write the words "rebel gang" on his face.

Forget it.

The matter has come to this point, and the plan can only be abandoned.

Poor Sun Yourong, it seems that she can only stay in Xu's mansion to teach her husband and children.

Just when Xu Chong was disheartened and comforting himself, a manic roar suddenly rose up, resounding through the night sky.

"—Do it!!!"

In an instant, Fu Yuanlong's pupils shrank to pinpoints.

So is Xu Chong.

Because of that voice he recognized it.

It's Liu Er.
