Chapter 74 Confrontation with the government
Qinzhou.
Under Xiao Yuan's highest order, the Qinzhou army began to move, and nine thousand soldiers were transferred to various places to eliminate the bullies.
To put it simply, this is a comprehensive anti-gang operation.
Outside the prefect's mansion, a thousand soldiers have been assembled.
Xiao Yuan did not wear official uniform, but wore a black brocade suit and tied his hair with a jade hairpin.
After he came out, Ye Cheng quickly stepped forward, cupped his fists and saluted, "Sir."
"Are the weapons ready?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"According to your request, everything is ready. I'm just waiting for your order." Ye Cheng said.
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded and glanced at the thousand soldiers in front of him.
The soldiers all had straight waists, sabers hanging on their waists, hard bows, and arrow pots on their backs. They looked more like they were going to fight.
After the inspection, he waved his hand and shouted in a loud voice: "Let's go!"
Following his order, a thousand soldiers all turned around. Immediately afterwards, the sound of neat infantry steps was heard, and the army began to take to the streets. The people didn't know why, and they gathered around both sides of the street and pointed.
Outer city.
The houses here tend to be dilapidated, and it is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and it is also the lair of the bully Ding Laosi.
Within this area, there are many gambling stalls and brothels in several alleys, all of which are owned by Ding Laosi, especially the chaotic brothels. The women in them were robbed by Ding Laosi, or
It is to use means to oppress, or to force good girls into prostitution.
Just like now, he is inflicting evil acts on a man in an attempt to force him into submission.
The man had been beaten to a state of disgrace. He was kneeling at the feet of Ding Laosi and kept pleading: "Master Ding, Master Ding, please be merciful and let this villain go..."
"Hmph!" Ding Laosi sneered, stepped on the man's back unceremoniously, and said, "Let you go? What about the money you owe me!"
"Ten taels of silver, I, I will definitely find a way to return it to Master Ding when I go back." The man said quickly.
"Ten taels? You damn thing didn't wake up! It's already two hundred taels now!" Ding Laosi said fiercely.
"What!? Master Ding, are you kidding me..." The man almost cried.
"Are you kidding? Paying back debts is a matter of course!" Ding Laosi stepped on the man with his foot and stepped on the ground. He leaned over and said, "What, you want to default on my debt?"
His tone was full of threats. The man was stepped on the ground and could not resist. He could only plead: "No, no, Master Ding..."
"Okay!" But before he finished speaking, Ding Laosi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and then said: "I don't think you can pay back the two hundred taels of silver, but I can give you some instructions.
road."
"What...what clear path?" the man asked subconsciously.
Ding Laosi laughed evilly: "I heard that your daughter is already sixteen..."
"No! Master Ding, Master Ding! Just be kind and let the villain go. Please..." the man began to shout.
As a result, Ding Laosi was furious and shouted directly: "Drag me down and beat him! Beat him hard! Beat him until he agrees to sell his daughter!"
Following his words, two minions immediately stepped forward, dragged the man away, and the man was also wailing desperately.
This kind of evil deeds is all too common for Ding Laosi. His evil deeds are spread all over Qinzhou and everyone hates him. However, due to various reasons and the protection of the government, he has never been sanctioned.
At this moment, a young man ran in in a panic and shouted in a trembling voice: "Master Ding! It's not good! The officers and soldiers are coming!"
"What did you say!?" After hearing this, Ding Laosi immediately stood up and yelled: "Bullshit on your mother! The officers and soldiers never dared to come to my place. Have they eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard today!"
"
He was talking about the former Qinzhou, but today, Qin is under the rule of Xiao Yuan.
Hearing this, the subordinates hurriedly said: "No, Master Ding, it's true! There are many officers and soldiers coming! And they are not the same ones as before."
"Damn it!" Ding Laosi cursed. He never looked down upon the government. He immediately slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted angrily: "Brothers! Copycat!"
Following his order, chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded throughout the city, and many shirtless men ran out of the house. It didn't take long before hundreds of men holding sticks and other things had gathered around them.
Arrive at Ding Laosi's place.
This is the power he wields rampantly in Qinzhou. Many scoundrels obey his orders and do some evil deeds.
But as soon as the people on his side gathered together, screams were heard outside, and some minions ran back screaming.
"What's going on!?" Ding Laosi shouted. In his heart, he still thought that the officers and soldiers did not dare to touch his people.
As soon as he finished speaking, before the minions had time to reply, the sound of neat infantry running filled the whole place.
Immediately afterwards, a thousand soldiers instantly surrounded Ding Laosi and others.
Seeing this scene, many people's Adam's apples slipped and they swallowed subconsciously, inevitably feeling a little frightened.
But Ding Laosi didn't show any nervousness at all. Instead, he separated from the two people in front of him, stood up swaggeringly, glanced coldly at Xiao Yuan who was taking the lead, and then sneered:
"His grandma, when did the government become so capable and make such a big move? Do you know who I am?"
"Haha." Xiao Yuan chuckled lightly and said, "Ding Laosi is very famous. Everyone in Qinzhou doesn't know him."
Hearing what he said, Ding Laosi laughed again, curled his lips and said: "Now that I know Master Ding's name, let's see who dares to arrest me!?"
Xiao Yuan didn't talk nonsense to him anymore, but directly raised his right hand slightly.
Following his movements, the sound of armor scraping could be heard everywhere. The soldiers in the front row half-crouched one after another. All the soldiers drew their bows and loaded arrows, and faced forward in unison.
This situation was a bit scary, and many people couldn't help but take two steps back, but Ding Laosi looked up and smiled, saying: "Who are you trying to scare? Do you dare to kill me? Do you know what Mr. Chang Shi has to do with me?"
!"
As he spoke, he also had a fierce expression, waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, come on! Drive these officers and soldiers away! Don't be afraid, they are just showing off, I, Ding Laosi, will be responsible for anything that happens!"
He carried out Qin Governor Shi. When the minions heard this, they couldn't help but feel determined. After looking at each other, some people who were not afraid of death began to rush forward with sticks in hand.
As a result, Xiao Yuan waved his hand forward without saying a word and shouted in a cold voice: "Fire the arrow!"
Following his order, a large row of sharp arrows flew away from the string, killing dozens of minions in just an instant.
Miserable howls were heard everywhere, and those minions who did not rush forward were frightened by this scene and even retreated.
Are the officers and soldiers serious this time?
Ding Laosi was also a little frightened. He swallowed hard and couldn't help but retreat. At the same time, he stammered: "You... you..."
Xiao Yuan didn't even pay attention to him, but said coldly: "Confronting the government is the same as rebellion! Anyone who dares to act rashly will be shot to death!"
