Chapter 265 Salt Owl
Naturally, everything that happened in Qingfu County would not spread to Junlian Prefecture within half a day. In the early morning of the next day after Wu Hou's death, Wu Tong ordered two hundred Fan soldiers and set off from Junlian to Qingfu.

He didn't expect that when selling private salt in a neighboring county, he would encounter such a fierce counterattack from the local salt merchants, who wanted to take people to the town.

It's nothing more than setting aside the Fan soldiers to let the Qingfu people know that if they want to fight Wu Tong, no one can beat him in black and white.

It's a shame that Li Xia eats [-] guan a year, but it's so useless to do things.

This is also a common bad habit in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty. Wu Tong is not surprised, he is used to everything by himself.

Yanxiao earns hard money...

In the same morning, Li Xia also gathered troops and horses, and went up the Fu River to meet Wu Tong in the south.

He wanted to ambush at Zhucao Mountain by the Fujiang River, which happened to be within the territory of Qingfu County.

Li Xia had already thought about what to say afterwards.

"You, a patrol inspector of Junlian Prefecture and a well-known salt lord, first sent people from your tribe to sell salt and kill people under the rule of Wei in this county, and then led troops to Qingfu County. What's wrong with Wei in this county to protect the people? Is there?"

"What? I received six thousand yuan a year from you? I have nothing to do. When I took office in Qingfu, I didn't even have a place to live. I lived in the county magistrate's house, and the land was distributed to the Xiangyong who died in battle. I had no money, no land, and no shop under my name. , when did you receive your money?"

It's a pity that these remarks probably don't need to be said, because Li Xia intends to silence Wu Tong, and there is no proof.

At three o'clock, the ambush started on Fujiang.

Li Xia stood on the pig trough mountain and watched the battle, his mind gradually moved further away.

It is easy to kill Wu Tong, but this is only the beginning of exploring the power into Jun Lianzhou.

And Junlian Prefecture is just one end of the Wuchi Road, passing through the Wuchi Road is the vast Yunnan.

……

"We have been ordered to suppress the Yan Xiao, and only the evil leaders will be punished, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

Amidst the shouts, the Miao soldiers named "Hai Jinliu" looked up and saw the Huohu and Xiongshan Mountains on the hillside, and the big flag on the top of the mountain.

Hai Jinliu fought with Luhu and Xiongshan together, and followed Li Xia to recover Hengzi Village.

Before the new year, he had a drink with Jiang Fan, heard about Li Xia's killing of Wu Liang and many other things.

At that time, Jiang Fan asked suddenly: "I heard that inspector Wu doesn't trust you much anymore? What's going on?"

"Where did you hear that?" Hai Jinliu didn't expect the news to spread, and said, "I don't know why, after the war, my brother is like that."

"The people who followed the county lieutenant to Mount Hengzi were all ignored by inspector Wu?"

"It's because of this?" Hai Jinliu was very surprised, and said in surprise, "It was my brother who told us to follow Li Xianwei to rob the mountain, and he ordered us to do so!"

"Haha, I guessed wildly, guessed wildly." Jiang Fan laughed loudly and said, "It seems that Wu Xunjian has a small stomach, unlike my county captain, you know? I used to follow the landlord of the county. , I followed Li Xianwei later, but whether it is the landlord or Li Xianwei, they never make things difficult for me...By the way, after the last battle, how much reward did you get?"

"Twenty sticks."

"Didn't the former county captain of Shanghengzi send you fifteen guan? Didn't Wu Xunjian say to send you another [-] guan?"

"No……"

These conversations flashed in Hai Jinliu's mind, and when he looked at the battle situation in front of him, he saw that all the soldiers in the village were still in a panic, and the Qingfu army had already rushed towards Wu Tong mercilessly.

It seems that there are only two choices in front of him, whether to fight to the death with Wu Tong, or not to kill those who surrender.

"I surrender..."

Hai Jin stayed in his mind and went through these things before making a decision. He suddenly turned to the front, his eyes widened, and he was very surprised.

"Already dropped? This..."

~~
"What did you say?"

"Wu Tong has already landed, he was the first to land." Xiong Shan said: "The villain didn't expect it to be so sudden, and he is still dividing his ship. Yu Tian has already captured him."

Li Xia was silent for a while.

Even with many assumptions, the war ended much faster than he imagined.

Those Miao and Yi soldiers were actually quite vicious, and they shouldn't be defeated as soon as they came into contact, but Wu Tong had already made a decision, and that's it.

Xiong Shan didn't react, he cupped his hands and said: "The county captain has an order to kill Wu Tong, the villain has always remembered it, but...'We said that the descendant will not be killed'."

"There is another sentence in front of 'only punish the evil leaders'." Li Xia said.

"Yes, but he descended too fast, and if he was killed in public, I'm afraid it would cause chaos? The villain doesn't know how to deal with it."

"Understood." Li Xia said: "Go and control those soldiers and bring Wu Tong up."

~~
Li Xia didn't tell Yu Tian that he wanted to seize Junlian's private saltworks. After all, this person had just joined him.

Yu Tianzhen thought it was the Yan Xiao who came to suppress the invaders this time.

In his opinion, these salt lords were too much, and the county lieutenant was protecting the environment and the people.

Therefore, although he was ordered to kill the evil leader, he thought he was just used to shouting like this, and failed to understand Li Xia's intention of "killing people to silence them".

Yu Tian was very happy that he was caught alive and quickly put down the chaos of the Yanxiao. He dragged Wu Tong up the mountain and shouted: "County Captain, fortunately, the villain did not disgrace his life. He has been captured alive."

~~
Wu Tong had bitterness on his face, but he still had a hearty smile.

"Brother Li, this is the flood that rushed into the Dragon King Temple, and my family hit my family..."

At this point, Wu Tong was led by Yu Tian to walk towards Li Xia.

He has already figured out the whole thing, and this time he fell into Li Xia's trap. No wonder those who sell official salt dare to be so arrogant. It is Li Xia who is behind the scenes, with the purpose of swallowing up the salt industry of a county and a state. .

But Wu Tong is very rational, and there is only one thought in his mind, the most important thing is to save his life right now.

Where there is life, there is hope.

So seeing Li Xia's cold face, Wu Tong didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and said directly: "Brother Li, don't kill me, I will give you whatever you want, and I will do my best to help you."

Li Xia took a few steps, took the rope binding Wu Tong from Yu Tian, ​​and asked, "Really?"

"Yes, yes." Wu Tong smiled apologetically, "My saltworks and foreign soldiers can belong to you in the future, I will help you take over these, as well as the high-ranking officials and rich smugglers, I will introduce you one by one... ..."

"You're blocking me." Li Xia said.

"what?"

Suddenly, Li Xia kicked Wu Tong and kicked him off the cliff.

"what……"

The time to fall from the top of the mountain to the cliff is not long.

But Wu Tong had countless thoughts in his mind.

For a moment he thought that Li Xia had missed it?Shouldn't this be the case?Even if he wants to kill, he should wait for a while... Even if it's only for a while, he still has to try to find a way to survive...

He thought of Li Xia's sudden arrival in Junlian Prefecture. He greeted him with a smile from the beginning to the end. He never did anything to offend Li Xia. He gave money and soldiers, but in the end he only ushered in betrayal?
Even after being betrayed, he was so aggrieved, why?Why was he kicked off the cliff by Li Xia?I can't figure it out!What does the phrase "you're blocking me" mean?
As soon as these flashes passed, there was endless anger.

anger!
"You take my money, bully me, kill me, I want you to be ruined..."

"Oh!"

A loud bang.

~~
Yu Tian was completely stunned.

Everything happened too fast, he led Wu Tong up the mountain, Li Xia took Wu Tong, took him to the edge of the cliff, and kicked him down.The process is nothing more than a few sentences.

"This……"

Soon, endless admiration filled Yu Tian's heart.

He already understood those three or two sentences. After being captured, Wu Tong, the all-powerful salt lord, wanted to bribe the county magistrate, but the county magistrate would not accept such bribes, so he killed Wu Tong without saying a word.

There are such honest, upright, and honest officials in the world!

"Yu Tian." Li Xia said.

"The little guy is here!"

"Go down and see if Wu Tong fell to his death, and bring back his head...Jiang Fan, you go with him."

Yu Tian didn't understand why he did it like this, he might as well beheaded right from the start, but he still replied loudly: "Yes!"

Only Jiang Fan understood what Li Xia meant...

~~
Jiang Fan and Yu Tian walked in the forest with one foot deep and the other shallow.

"General Yu Bai."

"What did Bantou Jiang say?"

"You said that Wu Tong is too cunning. He even jumped off the cliff after feigning surrender. It's easy for us to find."

"Ah? He wasn't kicked down by the county lieutenant..."

Jiang Fan said "Huh?"

Yu Tian was taken aback.

Jiang Fan laughed and said: "Wu Tong has escaped, Yu Bai will hunt him down and behead him, it's as simple as that."

"Ah, I see, Team Leader Xie Jiang reminded..."
