Water Margin begins as a captain in Yanggu County

Chapter 11: The Chief is Really Courageous

Su Wu became excited after hearing the praise, and ran towards the slower rascal. He was really good at grappling and fighting.

Compared to Wu Song, he may not have enough experience in street fighting, but many of the routines and techniques of later generations may be more scientific.

In fact, it is not easy to compare. I can just communicate, practice and learn more with Wu Song in the future.

There is still something that needs to be learned, that is the use of cold weapons. Compared with Su Wu and Wu Song, he is almost a layman in this regard.

Just as Su Wu was about to knock down another person in an instant, Wu Song wanted to show off even more. He used all his strength and, with his left hand and right hand, he actually grabbed the necks of the two scoundrels and pressed them to the ground.

The two men's heads were already bleeding and they were wailing non-stop.

Everything happened so fast that Ximen Qing was stunned. When he came to his senses, he looked around and saw that his men were all retreating.

Instead, he stood in front, right in front of Su Wu.

Ximen Qing quickly raised his hands and prepared to fight.

Su Wu suddenly stopped and stood two or three steps in front of Ximen Qing. He asked, "What did you say in the yamen yesterday about going back to discuss with the brothers? How did the discussion go?"

Wu Song knocked down two more people and was already standing next to Su Wu.

Ximen Qing looked at Su Wu, then at Wu Song, and then at the bound Yun Lishou. He swallowed and replied, "That's just a small matter."

"It seems that the deal is done?" Su Wu asked again.

"No problem!" Ximen Qing answered quickly, but he was still exchanging glances with Yun Lishou.

"Okay, sir, please don't delay." Su Wu said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'll come and get it in the afternoon." Ximen Qing nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, it seems that the master is not going to save anyone anymore, so let's go back." Su Wu waved his hand.

Ximen Qing really turned around and ran... After running a few steps, he suddenly stopped running because there were too many spectators on both sides, and he knew that he should not run away in fear.

He immediately stood up straight, opened the folding fan in his hand, waved it, and walked slowly.

Wu Song laughed beside him: "He's still pretending to be calm in the face of danger?"

Su Wu also laughed: "Master Ximen, you are naturally very powerful."

I don’t know whether Ximen Qing heard it or not, but his pace quickened a bit.

Wu Song also asked: "Brother, why did you let him go so easily?"

"There is a long way to go, and many things have to be done step by step. Let's destroy his prestige today. He will definitely not behave himself this time. He still has reinforcements to call on, and his reinforcements are interesting..."

Su Wu wanted to use Ximen Qing as a reputation tool, and he wanted to fleece him time and time again, and he wanted to get all the money out of him time and time again, starting with 500 strings of cash to buy a car and a house.

"Oh..." Wu Song seemed to understand but not quite.

After Su Wu won the victory, he looked at the onlookers who were watching the victory. Some of them were surprised, some were secretly happy, and some were just there to watch the fun.

Someone else came forward and asked, "Does Captain Su really want to punish that Ximen official?"

Su Wu waved his hand and said, "I don't have to punish anyone. I am the head of the county government. It is my duty to protect the country and the people. Whoever commits a crime will be punished."

"The captain is really brave." The person who came forward praised him, seeming to have more confidence in this hero who fought the tiger.

Then someone else said: "If the captain really does what he said, then he is really loyal and brave!"

This person still seemed a little unconvinced, but he also had expectations, and there was actually encouragement in his words.

In this world, compared to tigers, humans are more vicious.

It is obvious that Ximen Qing and his gang have oppressed more than one or two people in Yanggu County.

Su Wu turned to look at the tied Yun Lishou and asked, "Does your brother usually take care of you or not?" This matter needs to be clarified. In fact, it is strange that Yun Liwan is the chief officer of the wing army stationed in Yanggu County and a lieutenant general under Dongping Prefecture. Usually, he is not under the jurisdiction of the magistrate Meng Yi, but is directly under the jurisdiction of Dongping Prefecture.

Yanggu County is also under the jurisdiction of Dongping Prefecture. Yun Liwan has a famous superior, the military commander of Dongping Prefecture, also known as the Double-Gun General Dong Ping.

Dong Ping is also one of the most powerful generals in Water Margin and one of the Five Tiger Generals of Liangshan Cavalry. The other four are Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, Qin Ming and Hu Yanzhuo.

So Yun Liwan is very powerful in Yanggu County, and the soldiers guarding the city gates are all under his command. How come his brother is following Ximen Qing and hanging out in the streets?
Yun Lishou replied, "Are you scared now? My brother will come to the county government office to look for you. Let's see how you explain it to him."

It seems that they are in charge, which is good. Su Wu raised his hand and waved: "Let's go, take it back to the county government office."

When they returned to the county government office, the body of the big tiger was still lying in the yard, so Yun Lishou was put in jail first.

Su Wu called the debtor who was beaten to his front.

The man just knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you, Captain. Thank you, Captain."

"What's your name?" Su Wu asked.

"I am a villain." The man answered while kneeling.

"Well, are you afraid of Yun Lishou?" Su Wu asked.

"Afraid..." Cheng San looked pitiful, but every pitiful person must have something hateful about him.

"Do you think he will let you go?" Su Wu asked again.

"He...he..." Cheng San couldn't give a clear answer.

"Do you still want your wife?" Su Wu asked again.

"Yes, of course." Cheng San nodded repeatedly.

"What do you think will happen after you leave this government office?" Su Wu asked.

"I...I..." Cheng San naturally knew what the consequences would be, and his face was full of fear.

"Alright, I won't say any more. You know your current situation. Please sign your confession first. If the magistrate asks you about it later, just tell him the truth. I will protect you in the future. Maybe you can really escape this disaster. You should hide in the government office for the time being. I will have someone bring your wife here to hide from the spotlight."

"I know, I know. I know. Only the captain can protect me." Cheng San kowtowed repeatedly and looked ahead. He realized that he had no way out.

As soon as Cheng San went down, someone followed him to give a statement. Wu Song said, "Brother, are you going to sue me?"

Su Wu nodded: "We are government officials. We should abide by human relationships and laws. We should fight lawsuits. To deal with these rogues, we should stand on the moral high ground and achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"Oh..." Wu Song nodded, as if he had made some progress.

Dong Jian, who was standing by, seemed to have something to say, but hesitated for a few times before finally saying, "Captain, I wasn't afraid just now, I just didn't react for a moment. If there's a next time, I will definitely be the first to rush forward."

Su Wu actually believed this. He was just an honest man, not a heartless person. So he nodded and said, "Well, it's okay."

Hearing the word "it's okay", Dong Jian felt relieved. It was obvious that he had been very troubled about this matter throughout the journey.

There were several yamen runners around, who were actually Su Wu's confidants. They kept saying, "Captain, you should have given the order first, so that we would have known..."

"Yes, we all listen to the captain. Once the captain says so, we all attack together. How can we be a step behind?"

"Brother Wu is really good at martial arts. It only takes a few seconds. I was too slow to react and couldn't find him when I went forward."

Wu Song laughed loudly: "This is nothing, just a small fight. I will have a chance someday and show you my real skills."

"The captain is also very fierce... I have never seen the captain really fight with others before, but today I saw it, it was really terrible."

"That's right, we are all so weak, how can others stand it?"

"Okay..." Su Wu waved his hand and said, "Wait at the gate of the yamen. When General Yun arrives, we'll welcome him in."
