Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 87 Hit the Door
In the next few days, nothing happened, Xu Shan never came to make trouble again, the affairs of Yizhou were carried out in an orderly manner, and the repair of the river embankment progressed very quickly, which was mainly due to Li Ce's various incentives.

First, the river control craftsmen arrived one after another. The first to bring people was Liu Biaotou of the Liu Family Escort Bureau. He brought an old man who was nearly fifty years old. This old man was indeed an expert in river control. A series of related measures were quickly taken, and the flood was reduced a lot immediately, and Liu Biaotou was also highly praised by Zhou County Magistrate, who promised that he would be the next head of the bank.

Then several specially hired chefs also arrived, which immediately improved the food for the servants and officers and soldiers. Four large pots were set up in the open air, and every time the food was cooked, the aroma of the food could be smelled throughout Yizhou City.This led to a consequence. Many people came here smelling the smell of food, and quietly inquired about it. When they heard that the food was still full, they suddenly became red-eyed, so many people voluntarily asked to join the river control team, only to manage the river. One meal is enough.In this way, many new recruits were quickly joined, and the speed of the project was also accelerated a lot.

Xu Shan and Li Ce are governed by sections of the river. Li Ce is in charge of the upstream, repairing from top to bottom, and Xu Shan is in charge of the downstream, repairing from bottom to top.After a few more days, it seemed that the two teams were about to meet, and they could already vaguely see each other's men and horses. At this speed, the work could be completed in another three or four days.

The river repair project was handed over to Zhou De'an and the old river craftsman. Li Ce just made inspections every day, and then watched Guan Zhen and Di An drill the soldiers.Because of the joining of many people, some officers and soldiers were replaced. Anyway, it was fine. Li Ce ordered Di An to start training soldiers. Unexpectedly, Di An was very good at training soldiers, so Li Ce simply ordered the soldiers under his command. It's all up to him to train.

This Di An is skilled in martial arts, understands formations, and knows how to train soldiers. He is definitely not as simple as a small Xiang army leader. In terms of martial arts alone, I am afraid that there are few people in the entire Hebei army who are his opponents, let alone he has other abilities. , How could such a talent be buried in the Xiang army?

In the afternoon of that day, Li Ce was leading people to patrol the river embankment. Not long after walking, he saw a group of people limping and staggering towards this place, who seemed to be his own people.

When the person came closer and took a look, Li Ce was shocked, isn't this Liu Tingzhu?How could he be beaten like this?
I saw Liu Tingzhu drooping his head in disgrace, his face was bruised, his nose was broken, there were blood stains in the corners of his eyes, his hair was messed up, his clothes had a few big holes, and he was limping on one leg. The five people following him were also in the same distress as him, as if they had just been robbed.

Liu Tingzhu was walking with swollen eyes and lowered head. He felt a person standing in front of him. When he looked up, he was a little blurry. After squinting his eyes, he saw that it was Li Ce. He was so scared that he backed away suddenly and almost fell down.

Li Ce stared at Liu Tingzhu with a sullen face. When Liu Tingzhu was embarrassed, he blushed and whispered, "My lord..."

"What happened?" Li Ce asked with a frown.

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent, I'm embarrassing to my lord!" Liu Tingzhu said dejectedly with his head downcast.

"He was beaten?" At this moment, Guan Zhen couldn't help but ask.

"There are so many of them!" Liu Tingzhu suddenly raised his head and explained, when he looked up and saw Li Ce's stern gaze, he couldn't help being a little scared.

"What's the matter? Who beat you?" Li Ce was a little angry. What happened to him, he was beaten like this.

"My lord, please make the decision for your subordinates." Liu Tingzhu knelt down while weeping. "Today, when I went to the city to buy vegetables, I encountered a few officers and soldiers who were robbing civilian women. The subordinates were angry for a moment, so they stepped forward and taught them a lesson. Unexpectedly, those people were Xu Shan's subordinates. When we walked back, we were overtaken by Xu Shan's leader, Wu Yun and the others surrounded us and beat us, and the vegetables we bought were trampled to pieces." Liu Tingzhu said angrily.

"Is there such a thing? Robbery of women? Are you reading that right?" Li Ce asked, did the classic plots in the film and television dramas of his previous life really happen?

"How could it be possible to get it wrong? The little lady resisted to death, crying and struggling. His father stepped forward to stop him but was kicked to the ground by Xu Shan, and the girl was slapped several times by Xu Shan. Many people on the Internet can see it clearly and can testify." Liu Tingzhu said with his neck stuck.

"It's so unreasonable! The officers and soldiers are actually robbing civilian women in broad daylight. Are they here to help the people of Yizhou, or to harm the people?!" Zhou De'an said angrily.

"Where's that girl and her father? They took them away?" Li Ce stretched out his hand to support Liu Tingzhu, and continued to ask.

"No, the one surnamed Xu was afraid that things would become serious, so he didn't take the little lady away." As soon as Liu Tingzhu stood up, the wound on his leg was touched, and he bared his teeth in pain.

Li Ce glanced at the six people, all of them with bruised noses and swollen faces, and thought, "The robbery of the women's daughter today is probably just a cover, and the surname Xu took the opportunity to retaliate."As their commander, if I can't seek justice for them at this time, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the soldiers. People in the army have the best face. They value dignity more than anything else. What happened like this , it can be said that it is a matter of their entire commander's face, so this must be said.

"You guys go down and clean it up, I'll take care of it myself." Li Ce ordered Liu Tingzhu and the others to go down.

"Guan Zhen is going to gather the brothers." Li Ce said.

"Brother Li, if there is a conflict rashly, I'm afraid it will affect the affairs of Yizhou. Besides, the embankment is about to be repaired, and there are so many people in Xushan, we may not..." Zhou De'an said that his voice was a little bit later Xiao, what he meant was very clear, if we fight, we may not be able to beat them, so don't ask for trouble.He is the county magistrate of Yizhou, so he naturally doesn't want these two evil stars to clash on his territory, as it will definitely implicate him as well.

Seeing that Li Ce didn't speak, he continued: "The Great Song Dynasty strictly forbids private fighting between officials and soldiers. If there is a conflict in seeking justice like this, no one will be able to bear the responsibility." Zhou De'an persuaded again.

"Brother Zhou, I know you have good intentions, but this matter is about a man's face, so you don't need to persuade him anymore. Since Xu Shan is not afraid, why should I, Li Ce!" Li Ce stretched out his hand to stop Zhou De'an from continuing.

In the previous life, he was a useless person, so he must do whatever he wants in the next life!
Guan Zhen quickly spread the news of Liu Tingzhu's beating to the whole camp. Liu Tingzhu stood outside the tent with a gloomy face, watching Guan Zhen running around, and just wanted to strangle him to death. Now the whole camp knows that he was beaten. And he was beaten badly...

When all the officers and soldiers saw Liu Tingzhu with a bruised nose and a swollen face, they couldn't help but want to laugh. Liu Zhuzi, who has always been bluffing, was beaten into such a bear.

But when they saw that the other six people were also seriously injured, everyone couldn't laugh anymore. This is the brother who accompanied him to fight on the battlefield!He once blocked a knife for me!
Soon everyone began to speak out unanimously. My brother was beaten, and he was also beaten by the opposite officer. They were also officers. Why was he the only one who bullied us?They were all raised by their biological parents, and no one is a coward, a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood!revenge!revenge!

A group of officers and soldiers were fully armed, and under the leadership of Li Ce, they headed towards Xu Shan's camp three miles away.

It took only one stick of incense to reach Xu Shan's camp.

The soldiers guarding the gate, when they saw Li Ce acting as if he was provoking a teacher to inquire about crimes, and the heavily armed officers and soldiers behind him were also aggressive, they rushed in to report, and after a while, Xu Shan and Wu Yun came out.

Xu Shan walked in the front with an ugly face, and he was the first to say, "Instigate Li, what are you doing?" He didn't expect Li Ce to be so brave, to bring troops with him, and to be fully armed. Ready to do it, what the hell is it, isn't it just a few soldiers?Is it worth playing with me?
"Is Wu Yun the one you beat? Come out to me." Li Ce ignored Xu Shan, but pointed at Wu Yun and said bluntly.

"Li Ce, don't be too arrogant, Xu Dushi is here, it's not your turn to be presumptuous!" Wu Yun scolded.

Xu Shan also looked at Li Ce with a sullen face. This Li Ce was getting more and more presumptuous, and he didn't take himself seriously at all.Although he is not his immediate superior, he is also a commander, and his rank is one level higher than his.

Xu Shan snorted coldly and said, "What did I think was the matter? It turned out that it was the matter that caused our Commander Li to be so angry. It's easy to say, easy to say, come and get the money." Xu Shan looked indifferent.

Soon a soldier came up with a money bag, Xu Shan winked, the soldier understood, and handed the money bag to Li Ce.

Xu Shan continued: "Didn't it just hurt a few people? Here is ten taels of silver, take it."

"I just want people today." Li Ce looked at Xu Shan and said.

"I won't hand it over to you, the money is here, do you want love!" Xu Shan sneered.

"Xu Shan, do you have to protect yourself?" Li Ce stared at Xu Shan and said.

"Li Ce, I have endured you for a long time, I have long wanted to beat you!" Xu Shan stared at Li Ce and said in a low voice.

"Haha...then don't hold back anymore, let's compete today!" Li Ce said coldly, I'm not afraid of making things big, at worst, I won't do it anymore, I've already done enough of this shit up.

The two sides are at war with each other, and no one is willing to make concessions. A big battle is about to break out.

"Stop!" A majestic voice came from behind, and only one person came out slowly, it turned out to be He Ruinian!

Li Ce was startled, why is he here?
"Li Ce, you are too arrogant! How dare you offend me? What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel? Isn't it just to beat up a few soldiers? If you beat them, you beat them. Didn't Xu Shan already lose money? Are you free? Is it done? Is everything about the embankment settled?" When He Ruinian saw Li Ce, he immediately scolded him.

Li Ce was stunned. He Ruinian would be here, which was completely beyond his expectation. He never thought that He Ruinian would be in Xu Shan's camp.

The situation in this battle is changing rapidly, Xu Shan is He Ruinian's confidant, He Ruinian will naturally protect him, and he has already called to stop just now, if he does it himself, it will be openly disobeying the military order and gathering a crowd to rebel, and he can be executed on the spot Yes, when He Ruinian finds another excuse, it will be over for him and these hundreds of brothers.

He Ruinian didn't speak, just looked at Li Ce with such a livid face, Li Ce was angry but knew that he couldn't force it at this time, otherwise not only his own life would be in danger, but also this group of brothers would be implicated.He took a deep breath, tried to squeeze out a smile, reached out to take the purse, and said: Mr. He is too worried. This subordinate came today just to ask Xu Dushi for an explanation. Since Xu Dushi has lost money, then this time Let go of the matter and leave the subordinates.

He Ruinian watched Li Ce turn and leave coldly, his eyes getting colder and colder.Xu Shan also came over and said: "This Li Ce is really lawless. Doesn't he know that this West Hebei Road is up to you?"Didn't he think about his future?What a fool, I will teach him a lesson one day.

He Ruinian glanced at Xu Shan and said, "Can you use your brain sometime? If you can have half of his skills, hmph, I won't worry about it."

Xu Shan's face turned red, and he argued, "I'm not as good as that kid? If someone hadn't helped him that day, I would have beaten him up, and if you hadn't come forward to stop him today, I would have made him go all the way. How dare you come to provoke me!"

He Ruinian stared at Xu Shan angrily, pointed at Li Ce's leaving back in front of him, and said, "You still feel wronged when you say you don't use your brain. If I didn't come forward to stop you today, who would suffer? That kid is obviously prepared. Come on, can't you see it? With you pussies, do you think there is an advantage if you have more people? Can't you see that the hundred or ten people behind that kid are all cavalry? Just you soldiers, can you withstand the impact of cavalry? He Ruinian reprimanded mercilessly, he paused for a moment, then frowned and said to himself: "Then again, where did that kid get so many war horses?"

Xu Shan was left speechless by the training, he really didn't notice it, He Ruinian said this, he also reacted, and the jealousy towards Li Ce in his heart deepened.

Li Ce and his party walked back without saying a word. Guan Zhen glanced at Li Ce several times and wanted to speak, but finally couldn't hold back and said, "Brother, why did you take his money just now? You seem so spineless..."

Seeing Guan Zhen's look of contempt, Li Ce smiled and said, "Why?" He tossed the purse at Guan Zhen, and said, "When you see Xu Shan's subordinates on the street, beat me hard. , I also have money!"
