Chapter 224 Quail Egg Hitting a Stone
"Eggs hit rocks, haven't you tried it once?"

"If you can't win with one egg, is it possible that you can win with 260 eggs?"

Li Yuan couldn't help stammering after hearing Duan Yi's words, "260 eggs..."

Isn't it 260 eggs?
Although Duan Yi and her subordinates are powerful, there are only 60 of them.The bandits in Qingniu Mountain are just a mob who rob passers-by and pick up soft persimmons, how can they beat the one in Jingling City.

If we talk about the Shannan East Road, there are two most powerful places. One is Xiangyang, where the Taoist government is located, with the largest number of troops; Dare to provoke each other.

Although Dazhou has already changed the county into a state, Xiangyang is Xiangzhou, and Jiangling is Jingzhou, but both can be called.

On the contrary, this Jingling is the weakest.

But even the weakest, when his father was the governor, the state army had 3000 people.

"The current governor of Jingling is named Zhang Yan. He was originally my father's subordinate. My father was an official in the imperial examination and was not good at boxing. Although he is said to be the governor of a state, the state army is actually controlled by Zhang Yan. .”

"Speaking of which, I had a marriage contract with Zhang Yan's third daughter. In troubled times, Zhang Yan killed my father and took Jingling. I failed to assassinate and went to Qingniu Mountain with my wounds."

"The Jingling Mausoleum originally had [-] soldiers, and later that Zhang Yan recruited more soldiers in the city. Now the state army should have more than [-] soldiers."

More than 200 people against 5000 people, isn't it like what Duan Yi said, an egg hits a stone?
Duan Yi saw that he had a look of despondency on his face, and shook her head indistinctly.

Li Yuan has always been used to things going smoothly, she can't hold her breath, she can't stand things, that's why she spends her days drinking heavily.

These days, she deliberately kept him cold, but with little effect.

"Jingling is going to fight, but not now," Duan Yi said softly.

Not to mention that she brought Qi Lang and Lao Jia out of Jiannan, but if she took Cheng Qiong, a general who specializes in military training, she, Duan Yi, would never be confined to a mere bandit mountain.

In this chaotic world, if you kill others, or they kill you, who really enjoys the peace?
She really wanted Qingniu Mountain to become that paradise, but she couldn't resist him from doing it!

Once there was a big commotion between them, even if she was a bodhisattva who came down to earth and didn't want to fight Jingling, the governor of Jingling would yell at her, "How can you let others sleep soundly under the couch", and then go straight to Qingniu Mountain to suppress the bandits.

Li Yuan was overjoyed, he scratched his robe excitedly, these few days when he was carrying beams and stones, the scorching foam from his hands rubbed on the skirt of his clothes, it hurt a lot, but he was inexplicably happy.

"What's the harm in leaving that face to you?" Duan Yi said lightly.

With a plop, Li Yuan knelt down, "If Li Yuan is avenged, her life will belong to the general from now on."

"No matter where, if there is the dragon crossing the river, there will be the local snake. The local snake in the south of the mountain is surnamed Tian. This family is not capable of humanities, but they started their business as merchants. The status of merchants is low, so there is nothing to fear."

"But when I came here, what the Tian family did was to open a gambling shop, sell usury money, and trade flesh and blood. There were countless lawsuits involving human lives in their hands. When Mr. Qiao was still there, an old woman wrote a blood letter and sued the Tian family to kill her son. , forcibly robbing the family members..."

"Mr. Qiao is an upright person, and spent great efforts to uproot the Tian family. I don't want the Tian family to get lucky and have a favorite concubine there... Later, the Qiao family... this matter will not happen. It's over."

"After that, the Tian family walked sideways in the south of the mountain, no one dared to control..."

Duan Yi's eyes moved, "But now Your Majesty can't take care of himself, what is Concubine Tian?"

The Tian family, with no one to protect it, is like a three-year-old child holding a cornucopia.

No matter how powerful those housekeepers are, the local ruffians, how can they beat the well-trained state troops of various states?

Not only Duan Yi was interested, but Mr. Qi and Cheng Qiong also walked over quietly and listened carefully to what Li Yuan was talking about about the Tian family.

As if seeing through everyone's thoughts, Li Yuan said again, "When I passed by Xiangyang to return to Jingling, the Tian family had already controlled Xiangyang City. Concubine Tian's elder brother, Tian Yi, proclaimed himself a military envoy. , he can't count..."

Duan Yi frowned upon hearing this.

They couldn't even beat Jingling, so they wanted to go to Xiangyang to beat Tian's house?Then it's not an egg hitting a rock, it's a quail egg hitting a rock!
"Around Jingling, just near Qingniu Mountain, is there property owned by the Tian family?" Qi Lang interjected.

He said, taking a deep look at Li Yuan, "You want Duan Yi to lead someone to rob that?"

Li Yuan nodded heavily, "Yes. Although the Tian family lives in Xiangyang now, they were originally from Jingling. They came from Jingling. Outside Jingling City, it is not far to the west of Qingniu Mountain. Everywhere, there is a Zhuangzi.”

"That Zhuangzi looks like a farm on the surface, but in fact, it is a gold-selling cave full of food, drinking, prostitution and gambling."

As Li Yuan said, her face flushed slightly, "When I was the son of Jingling County Sheriff, I went there with Zhang Yan's son Zhang Huan many times, and I know the way very well."

"I'm a greedy drinker, but I don't like to gamble or be lustful. Once I went back home, I was drunk and wanted to show respect. I was stunned and went to the back of the villa. There is a winding path, and I passed a stone arch. , but there is a hole in the sky."

"Behind that, there is actually a small courtyard. I saw with my own eyes that many people were carrying boxes of things towards the small courtyard behind. in the warehouse."

"The Tian family is rich and ruthless, and all they earn is money from blood and tears. I, Li Yuan, dare to swear to God, I never slandered them, and I didn't tell a single lie about the warehouse."

As Li Yuan said, she raised her hand and swore to the sky.

He is not someone who hates evil as much as an enemy, but a local snake like the Tian family, how can they provoke outsiders like them?
He saw it at the time, half sober from the wine, and then turned back quietly, pretending nothing happened.

"My father and mother are dead, and there is no way for one person to take revenge. All those uncles in the past have closed their doors. I have no choice. I want to go up the mountain and borrow Chen He's knife to kill people. So I said that I would lead him to ransack Tian's warehouse. , and then he helped me to assassinate Zhang Yan."

Duan Yi did not doubt Li Yuan's words.

Chen He is good at using hidden weapons, not to mention the long range, and also likes to apply poison, so he is an excellent candidate for assassination.

"You not only want to borrow Chen He's knife, you also want to borrow the Tian family's knife, right? You want to steal the Tian family's property and lead the Tian family to attack Jingling, and Zhang Yan will die then."

"But you didn't expect that Chen He was obsessed with beauty, and he had lost the slightest sense of loyalty. He is a coward. After hearing what you said, he didn't dare to go to Tianjiazhuang, and he didn't dare to go to Jingling with you. Assassinate Zhang Yan."

Li Yuan's expression changed slightly, he suddenly raised his head to look at Duan Yi, and smiled wryly.

"The general only had one face-to-face meeting with him, and he saw Chen He clearly. I asked him for help, but he refused to help. He just gave me the false name of being the third leader. I had no hope of revenge, so I drank heavily every day." ..."

Therefore, when Duan Yi and the others went up the mountain, he was as drunk as a dead pig. He didn't see half of Duan Yi's ability at all, so he wasted a few days in vain...
