Xu Taiping thought about it all night.
Think of a way.
Lure the snake out of its hole.
Tune the tiger away from the mountain.
Yang Jintang is a county captain and also has an official seal.
The official seal has a certain power within the jurisdiction, which is comparable to a magic weapon or even a magic weapon, and has a bonus to combat power.
Therefore, even if Yang Jintang is only a third-rate martial artist, he can still guard one side.
A third-rate martial artist is nothing in the world of martial arts.
But it is blessed by the official seal.
There were also county soldiers guarding him.
That makes no one dare to underestimate him.
so.
Want to kill Yang Jintang.
Yang Jintang must be led outside the city, the more remote the better.
Although the area outside the city is also under the jurisdiction of Jianyang County, the further away from the county government, the weaker the power of the official seal and the weaker the blessing to Yang Jintang.
at the same time.
It can also free Yang Jintang from the defense of the county soldiers and weaken Yang Jintang's comprehensive combat effectiveness to the greatest extent.
Only in this way can we have a chance to win the battle.
The problem is that.
Will Yang Jintang take the bait?
Zhou Yucheng hid in the county government office all day long and hardly went out. It was not because of social fear, but because he was always at the peak of his combat power in the county government office.
Zhou Yucheng understands this truth.
Yang Jintang naturally understood.
It was a common practice for the county magistrate not to leave the city, just to guard against demons, ghosts, gangsters, and monks from various factions taking advantage of the opportunity to attack.
so.
This is a difficult question.
Xu Taiping thought hard all night.
Only then did he come up with a fairly comprehensive strategy.
Tune the tiger away from the mountain.
There must be scented bait.
Now, Yang Jintang hates me to the core.
Then I will use myself as bait to lure Yang Jintang out of the city.
April twenty-two.
early morning.
Xu Taiping led Wu Liuyi, Zheng Bowen and others, escorting an ox cart straight to the county barracks.
When he arrived at the gate of the county barracks, he was stopped by the guards again.
this time.
The guards took a tougher stance.
The reaction was also more intense.
When he saw Xu Taiping, he blew the whistle directly.
"Dudu——"
All of a sudden.
The county barracks was in action.
The archers on the sentry tower directly drew their bows and aimed at Xu Taiping and others.
The guard shouted sternly: "Go away——
"The dogs from the fast-tracking squad are not welcome here!
"If you don't leave after three counts, you will be treated as an enemy!
"three!
"two!
"one--"
Just when the guard counted down to "one".
Xu Taiping ripped off the black cloth on the bullock cart.
Eighteen black strong bows were revealed.
Bows and arrows were highly sophisticated weapons in the feudal era.
The production process is complex.
It also takes a long time.
A good bow takes at least half a year from material selection to molding. It is not uncommon for a more sophisticated bow to take two or three years to make.
The strong bows used in the county barracks are naturally not expensive.
But it is very practical.
Hard enough.
Strong enough.
The materials used are very solid.
The workmanship is more solid.
Xu Taiping asked.
Making such a hard bow would take even a skilled craftsman half a year.
This is under the premise that the materials are complete.
The purchase price is more than fifty taels of silver.
Eighteen handfuls are one thousand taels of silver.
and.
Money is still a trivial matter.
This is a standard weapon, every one is recorded in the file, and losing one is a crime.
Lost eighteen?
Behead directly.
The chief officer must be prepared to lose his head.
certainly.
There is definitely room for manipulation in terms of specific implementation, such as quietly filling in the vacancy, or using a fire dragon to burn the position without any evidence.
but.
Now, Xu Taiping pulled eighteen standard hard bows to the entrance of the military camp.
A village chief's pupils shrank sharply.
He quickly stopped: "Wait!"
He quickly ran up to Xu Taiping and asked in a very low voice: "Captain Xu, what do you want to do?"
Xu Taiping chuckled: "The property returns to its original owner."
"What are the conditions?"
"It depends on what conditions Mr. Yang is willing to offer."
"you……"
"You can't make the decision, so come to Mr. Yang."
The camp commander grunted, turned around and ran quickly back to the camp, where he found Yang Jintang: "Sir, Xu Taiping is here."
"oh?"
"Pull the bows and arrows we lost."
"Huh!" Yang Jintang also snorted: "What does he want to do?"
"It sounds like he wants to ask for benefits."
Yang Jintang was furious.
He slapped his palm on the table: "You thief, you are going too far!"
The village chief did not dare to answer the question.
a long time.
Yang Jintang suppressed his anger and said bitterly: "Tell him, five hundred taels of silver, if it works, then get out!"
The village chief's eyes suddenly widened: "Sir, this, this is too much. We don't need to suffer from this cowardice. At the worst, we can just find some connections and get a few hard bows to fill the gap. Even if we spend a little more money, it is better than being beaten by that dog." Thief threatens.”
Yang Jintang took several deep breaths in succession.
Shaking his head: "He is not an ordinary head catcher."
"ah?"
"Zhou Yucheng has been protecting him, his attitude is very unusual, not to mention his methods... are really clever. If he has a backup plan, I will be very passive."
When the village chief heard this, he said bitterly: "I'm really unwilling..."
Yang Jintang slowly clenched his fists: "Zhou Yucheng will not always protect him. When he is alone, I will let him know how powerful he is!"
A quarter of an hour later.
Xu Taiping and the camp commander Yang Xin completed the handover.
Hand over the money.
First hand delivery.
Xu Taiping counted the money with a smile.
No more, no less, a full five hundred taels.
He patted Yang Xin on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Captain Yang, bows and arrows are not just knives and sticks. They are important weapons. You must keep them well. If they are lost again, it will not be something that money can solve."
Yang Xin sneered: "Don't worry, Capt. Xu, you will never encounter this kind of thing again."
"I don't want this kind of thing to happen all the time in my jurisdiction, because it's too troublesome. Not only that, but also the family members of the deceased want to report the case. They don't agree with the sentence. Even if they are tortured, they insist that the mastermind is not the district chief."
Yang Xin's eyes were filled with fire: "You, you..."
Xu Taiping smiled: "Of course I can't just sit idly by and watch, so I took some notes and was hesitating whether to open a case for investigation."
Yang Xin grabbed the handle of the knife and said with murderous intent: "How dare you threaten the county barracks?"
"Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm not threatening you. On the contrary, it's a show of goodwill, okay? Otherwise, I'll quietly find the county magistrate to file a case. When the time comes, hehehe..."
Just file a case.
It's very troublesome.
Even if you just go through the process, it is very unfriendly to the parties involved.
Especially Yang Jintang, a dignified county captain, but he was summoned for questioning again and again. Where could he save his face?
If it spreads, it will not be good for your reputation, and may even breed rumors.
Yang Xin stared at Xu Taiping with eyes that seemed to be cannibalistic.
a long time.
Suppressing his anger, he went to Yang Jintang again to report.
Yang Jintang heard this.
He waved his hands violently.
Smashing the table with one palm.
I scolded my teeth and scolded: "Don't kill the dog thief, I swear! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yang Xin reluctantly tried to comfort him: "Sir, why don't you just endure it for a while and wait until you find an opportunity to kill him..."
At this point, he made a gesture of cutting his throat: "Kill him, and those who were sent out will come back intact?"
Yang Jintang was even more angry: "I am a high-ranking county lieutenant, but I have been blackmailed by this thief again and again. If I don't cut him into pieces, it will be hard to let go of the hatred in my heart!"
"But, now..."
"boom--"
Yang Jintang kicked the stool in front of him to pieces: "Give him! Give him another five hundred taels!"
"When he leaves, send a message to Wang Huaiyong for me!
“Having been protected by me for many years, it’s time to do something.
"snort!
"Tell Wang Huaiyong that no matter what methods and means I use, I will lure Xu Taiping outside the city within three days!
"I am going to cut this little beast Xu Taiping into pieces with a thousand cuts outside the city!"
