65 Get rid of him!
"All the generals, listen up and change direction!"
From the border between Yinzhou and Zhuzhou, take a detour along the mountain road to Zhuzhou.
Xu Huaili glanced at Yang Jianping casually, and Yang Jianping nodded slightly.
Xu Huaili's eyes turned cold, then his expression returned to normal.
The army was well-trained and left a vacant position. Xu Huaili rode forward on his horse, holding the sword tightly in his big hands, his posture as straight as a pine tree.
The team quickly called back successfully, and Xu Huaili shouted, "Let's go!"
Yang Jianping followed beside him and whispered, "General, everything is the same as before!"
Xu Huaili hummed calmly, but his eyes were terribly cold.
Yang Jianping turned around and shouted with a smile, "Brothers! Let's work harder today. When we get to Yinzhou Post Station, we can eat a lot of meat. I heard that their meat is famous for its freshness and tenderness!"
"Is everyone ready!?"
“Ready!”
“Ready!”
“Ready!”
The troops shouted "good" three times in a row, the momentum was amazing!
The army quickly set out for Yinzhou. A man in the forest waited until the army left before fleeing quietly.
The man was small and thin, with shifty eyes. He hurriedly took a small path into the forest, moving as quickly as a fish in a pond or a loach. When he reached a slightly wider place, he untied the horse rope that was tied under a tree.
Riding fast towards the mountain road...
At dusk, he finally arrived at a dense forest in Yinzhou. He jumped off his horse, gasping for breath.
"Boss! The big job is coming!" The man ran into the ravine in the woods and said excitedly.
The big boss had a pipe in his mouth, his face was dark, and he was full of flesh. When he heard this, his eyes were filled with greed, and a light flashed in his cloudy eyes. "Monkey! Did you see how many boxes there are?!"
The one called Monkey was the one with the shifty look in his eyes. "There are more than 30 boxes. Judging from the marks left by the carriage wheels, they are probably all filled with silver!!"
"Go call the second in command, the third in command, and the fourth in command!" the eldest in command shouted anxiously upon hearing this.
The monkey responded excitedly, "Okay!"
After a while, several bosses gathered together.
The eldest boss spoke first, his mouth full of foam, "Brothers, Monkey has gone to explore the way, and the group of people are changing their route to Yinzhou!"
The third brother was short but very strong, with a blind right eye. He stood up quickly and said arrogantly, "Brother! Let's get him, and we brothers won't have to worry about food for the next few years!"
The second brother thought more, "Brother, should we reconsider the government's disaster relief money? If they take action to suppress the bandits, we will definitely not have an easy life."
"What are you afraid of? The government won't care about us. We give them a share of the money we eat!" The third brother sneered and shouted with his hands on his hips.
What a joke, the government sends troops to suppress bandits? They wish they could do more and get some money from it.
"The second brother has the will but not the courage to do it!"
The fourth brother's rustling voice sounded like a bellows. "The person above sent a letter asking us to take action. It would be best to catch all these people in one fell swoop."
"Isn't that even better! We've done a perfect job, and the government can help us cover it up, and we can also collect money. Isn't that the best of both worlds?!" The third brother's left eye widened, looking extremely terrifying.
They found a random excuse and threw the body into the river, where it just flowed away, and no one knew what happened to it.
Worst case scenario, we can say that those foreigners have sneaked into Yinzhou and killed them!
The big boss took a puff of his cigarette and exhaled heavily, his fat face blurred by the smoke, "Then let's beat him up, does the second brother have anything to say?"
The second brother thought for a moment, his eyes full of viciousness, "I heard that the general is very powerful, it would be best to use some means to get rid of him first!"
The big boss opened his drooping eyes, his face grim, "They passed by the tavern, it's getting late, let's block that part of the road first, let them rest there for a night, so we can work!"
"Okay! I'll take my brothers to do it!" The third brother was eager to go.
"Second brother, go ahead. Fourth brother and I will support you from behind. Once you succeed, fire a cannon to signal." The boss stopped the third brother and told him to be careful this time and not to be careless.
Those people are from the regular military camp and are not easy to deal with.
When Xu Huaili and his troops were about to enter Yinzhou, they saw a tavern with seven or eight people staying inside.
Yang Jianping dismounted and asked the waiter, "Waiter, how far is this from the post station?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Sir, it's still fifteen miles to the nearest post station. However, the bridge ahead has been washed away and is being repaired. It will not be repaired until tomorrow."
Yang Jianping got the news and went back to report to Xu Huaili.
Xu Huaili's eyes darkened, and Yang Jianping suddenly said, "General, it's getting late, why don't you stay here for a night?"
The horse exhaled hot air, and Xu Huaili held the horse's head, "Okay."
The tavern was too small to accommodate so many troops, so they set up camp on the spot.
Xu Huaili and several of his subordinates entered the tavern.
The sword at my side was always touching my wrist.
The waiter brought out two bottles of wine and said with a smile, "Gentlemen, these are two bottles of good wine sent to you by our shopkeeper. You can have a taste to relieve your fatigue. We also have two excellent guest rooms in our tavern, which you can stay in for free."
Yang Jianping took it upon hearing the voice, glanced at the people in the store, and his gaze disappeared instantly.
Yang Jianping pretended to be proud and said, "You are a very sensible kid, no wonder your store is doing so well!"
With a defiant look in his eyes, he patted the waiter on the shoulder and said, "We don't need the guest room anymore. Cook a few more dishes. Don't you see we are all still hungry?!!"
“Yes, yes, yes!” The waiter nodded and bowed immediately, not daring to make a sound because of the pain.
As he left, he stole a glance at Xu Huaili, who was sitting there without saying anything.
Yang Jianping invited several colleagues to come over and drink with Xu Huaili.
The waiter quickly brought some cold dishes.
A few people sat around, and Yang Jianping poured wine for Xu Huaili, "General! Come, drink!"
Several other people in the tavern looked sideways, sizing up Xu Huaili and the others vaguely.
Xu Huaili said nothing, raised his glass and clinked it with the others, then raised his hand and drank it in one gulp.
Those gazes suddenly became dense and fierce.
Half a minute later, Yang Jianping frowned and muttered, "What's going on... The wine I drank today is particularly strong, I..."
"Just a few drinks... and I'm already drunk..."
"Yeah...what, are you drunk..." Several men responded with thick tongues.
After saying this, he grinned happily, and then fell on the table with a "bang".
Xu Huaili also frowned, held his forehead with his hand, and felt more and more dizzy. He shook his head and loosened his grip on the sword.
"Bang!"
After a few seconds, everyone fell down and lay sprawled on the table.
The eyes of several people in the tavern suddenly became fierce, and they slowly stood up with cold smiles.
The second brother walked lightly towards Xu Huaili, stared at the sword in his hand, greedily, and slowly touched it.
Such a good sword, he really belongs to a rich man's son.
He tried to pull it out of him with force, and the second brother's face was full of satisfaction with success.
Suddenly, the second brother's smile stopped, and the sword in his hand did not move at all.
