Chapter 99 Dispute

Wu Qi is one of the team captains, and he is in charge of about ten brothers. He is currently searching for people's wealth in a bank bank, and the boss has already escorted him out to his subordinates.

The soldiers who came in were like jackals and began to frantically plunder everything they could see.

Until, the store was looted.

Just when he was about to go out to the next store, he found that someone had already surrounded him outside the store.

Before Wu Qi could react to what had happened, he saw the county captain leading a group of people over, and everyone had their swords out of their sheaths, ready to go.

Wu Qi thought he was planning to take advantage of others. After looking at the number of people he brought over, he found that he was indeed superior to him. He could only endure his displeasure and said:

"Lord County Captain, what are you doing?"

However, the other party ignored him at all and directly ordered: "Beat me to death."

The men immediately took action upon hearing the news.

They are superior in numbers, and they are calculated mentally but not intentionally.

And Wu Qi's men were all holding the property they had just plundered. They couldn't free their hands at all, and they were beaten for a while and screamed.

"Wang Laohei, what are you doing!"

In desperation, Wu Qi didn't care about disrespect and directly called the county captain by his name.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

In this small county town, the nominal magistrate and the county captain who holds military power are at odds with each other.

And Wu Qi happened to be from the county magistrate's faction, so naturally he didn't have much respect for Wang Laohei.

Wang Laohei's name is just like the person he is. He is dark and thin. What is very striking is his broken arm. It is said that he lost an arm on the battlefield and was sent here as a small county captain.

After hearing Wu Qi's question, he smiled, pointed at the shop destroyed by these "bandits", and shouted:

"You ask me? See for yourselves what you are doing now?"

"You are soldiers, protecting your home and country, and guarding the safety of a place. Let's see how your behavior is different from that of bandits."

His righteous and awe-inspiring words aroused applause from the people around him.

Unfortunately, Wu Qi did not accept this trick. He snorted coldly:

"Wang Laohei, everyone is sensible, why are you pretending to be so confused?"

"Since you have been in office for so many years, the taxes collected from various hawker stalls are no less than ours. There is no need to laugh at the fifty steps and the hundred steps."

Wang Laohei was born in the military and was not good at words. When he exposed his background like this, he suddenly felt helpless and gritted his teeth and shouted:

"It seems you are unrepentant, so give me a beating."

When the soldiers heard this, they killed this group of people, and Wu Qi even had several of his teeth knocked out.

Things got louder and louder, and within a short time, the news that Wu Qi had been beaten spread.

Many county soldiers from the county magistrate's faction who were robbing also gathered around, trying to find justice for Wu Qi.

Soon, the two factions began to confront each other.

The matter then reached Magistrate Luo. After Magistrate Luo heard the news, he was so angry that he threw the teacup in his hand to the ground and cursed:

"This group of guys who don't succeed enough but fail more often don't know how to save people's worries all day long."

That being said, things still have to be worked out.

God knows, he just wanted to leave quietly, but he ended up causing such an incident before he left.

Just thinking about it makes me angry...

When Magistrate Luo arrived, he found that his men had basically controlled the scene. Looking at it again, his face became extremely gloomy. This damn Wang Laohei actually brought all of his more than two hundred people over.

Damn it, did I poke you in the back?

Magistrate Luo felt MMP in his heart. He smiled and pretended not to know, and said, "My lord, what is happening here?"

Wang Laohei was not polite to him, and showed no mercy to him: "Magistrate Luo, you allow your subordinates to rob the people, what is your crime?"

Magistrate Luo's face was gloomy, and he silently greeted Wang Laohei's relatives and friends, but he had to pretend to be surprised:

"Why did the county lieutenant say this? I have been staying in the government office and know nothing about things outside. Please don't pour all the dirty water on me."

After the people around Magistrate Luo pretended to "explain" and made things clear, Magistrate Luo was furious:

"How brave are you? You actually dare to rob people in the name of me and slander my name. Do you think you are guilty?"

Wu Qi was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of his head.

Oh no, didn’t you acquiesce in this robbery? Don’t you still want to take a commission after everything is done? What, do you want to regret it now?

Magistrate Luo County saw that Wu Qi could not understand what he meant for a long time, and he felt anxious in his heart, and said quickly: "Come here, put all these instigators in jail, and set a day to bring them to court for interrogation!"

When Wu Qi heard this, he quit.

Co-author, you are trying to kill the donkey, right?

Thinking of this, he suddenly became furious.

It wasn't until he saw the people around Magistrate Luo winking at him desperately that he finally understood and quickly cooperated.

Wang Laohei yelled angrily and said, "Magistrate Luo, what do you mean by this? Are you blatantly shielding them?"

Magistrate Luo smiled and said: "The county lieutenant doesn't want to slander anyone. Didn't I put them in jail according to the law? How can I protect them?"

Wang Laohei was furious. Once he is put in a cell, it is not up to you, the county magistrate, to decide when he will be released.

However, this was indeed the county magistrate's right, and he had no choice but to look at him bitterly, and said with a smile:

"Then please ask the county magistrate to keep an eye on your own dog, otherwise it will be bad if you are caught and killed on the spot."

Magistrate Luo's eyelids twitched, and he said forcefully: "This doesn't bother the magistrate anymore."

Wang Laohei snorted and said, "Just do it for yourself."

Then he walked away.

Magistrate Luo looked at the county lieutenant who was always against him, with a gloomy face. It took him a while to resume his laughter, and shouted to the crowd still surrounding him:

"Everyone, please disperse. Get ready quickly. The Qifeng Kingdom's army will attack soon."

"For these people who disturbed the people this time, I promise everyone that they will be severely punished and will never be tolerated."

When everyone heard this, they only caught the previous sentence: "What? Is the Qifeng Empire really going to attack?"

Although there have been rumors that there is going to be a war, the government has never come forward to clarify. I only heard the official notice today, which will inevitably cause riots.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I will lead everyone to resist the invasion of foreigners. The city is alive and the people are there, but the people are dying in the city. I swear to live and die with everyone."

"You just need to stick to your posts and don't cause more trouble for us to defend the city."

Everyone was extremely surprised. When did this county magistrate, who was a slave to the common people, actually have such backbone?

They thought that once the enemy troops came over, the county magistrate would be the first to run away. It seemed that they were trying to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart.
