"What are you running away from?"
Shen Tang looked down at the patriarch of the Zhang family.
Looking at the fury on his face, I chuckled...
"What's the use of getting angry? Your eyes can't kill people. Be careful, your eyes are too protruding and might pop out of your eye sockets!" Shen Tang pinched the chin of the Zhang family patriarch through his handkerchief, smiled, and used his fingers to violently remove it.
However, the Zhang family patriarch struggled as expected, causing his lower jaw to be severely dislocated. He rolled over in pain, holding his cheek.
Shen Tang said regretfully: "You were a bit too harsh."
Gong Shuwu snorted coldly: "We are all going to die anyway."
It doesn't matter whether you strike lightly or hard.
He added, "My lord, there is no need to feel guilty about this man. It would be better if he could not speak at all. Then the King of Hell would have less dirty talk and would have peace of mind for a while."
Shen Tang didn't expect Gong Shuwu to be so upright.
He smiled and said, "How can I feel guilty?"
She just felt sorry for her handkerchief, because she had used too much force and it was stained with saliva due to the struggle of the Zhang family patriarch.
Shen Tang kicked each of them and broke their legs.
Two bans were issued as a double insurance.
"Half a step, let two people come over to keep an eye on them, and we will clean up the mess." This operation went much more smoothly than Shen Tang had expected, which was also related to her overestimation of the strength of the He Yin Zhang family.
Shen Tang subconsciously thought that these local tyrants were powerful and well-armed, but he overlooked the fact that it was impossible for Zhang's guest officials to stay in the Zhang family for twelve hours a day.
She was the type who would suddenly attack over the slightest disagreement. Even if the local tyrants in He Yin thought that Shen Tang would sharpen her knives, who could have imagined that she would draw her butcher knife on the second night after taking over He Yin, before she had figured out the complicated situation in He Yin
Everything happened too suddenly!
Furthermore—
One force can break all laws, one force can defeat ten skills!
If the powerful local tyrants in Heyin unite to put pressure on Shen Tang, it will be difficult for Shen Tang to defeat him with thunder and lightning. Even if he has high-level warriors like Gong Shuwu and Zhao Feng, and scholars like Qishan to assist him, once the two sides start fighting, with Heyin as the main battlefield, even if Shen Tang wins, Heyin will be basically destroyed.
Shen Tang chose to defeat them one by one.
Take action when no one expects it.
Although the operation went smoothly, we cannot really underestimate the He Yin Zhang family. Shen Tang is short of manpower now, and one-third of them are borrowed by Zhao Feng. We cannot lose them here. After settling the Zhang brothers, Shen Tang took up his sword and went out without blinking.
Wherever the sword pointed, heads rolled.
After only a quarter of an hour, the screams from the Zhang family gradually died down. They were all tied up and thrown into a place for centralized custody. Shen Tang silenced every scholar and warrior, and prepared to go to the next battle.
"You thief, you shall not die a hapless death!"
Shen Tang paused and looked in the direction of the sound.
The one who spoke was an old man with white hair and beard, and was in good spirits. Because he was well-maintained, he looked much younger than his actual age, and his curses were full of energy. Through the crowd of hundreds of people and the howling of the crowd, his voice could still be clearly heard by Shen Tang.
"I can't die a good death? I can't die a good death? I can't have a house?" This curse not only failed to break Shen Tang's defense, it even provided a bit of the effect that only a cold joke could have. Before that person could curse again, a silence was issued to stop him from speaking.
“No wonder everyone wants to be a powerful person…”
Shen Tang looked at the frightened people nearby.
Not being silenced is better than being silenced.
"It feels really good." She murmured.
No matter how good or bad a person's eloquence is, whether he can win the argument or not, he can be silenced if he disagrees with something. Even if that person has a lot of curses in his heart, he can't vent them. Countless anger can only brew and churn in his stomach, and he wishes he could explode on the spot with anger!
Hehe, it’s really cool!
Shen Tang looked indifferent and silenced the loudest barkers. Soon the only sounds in the crowd were the cries of a few children in fear. The other adults watched as the people around them were forced to shut up, and they somewhat understood Shen Tang's quick and decisive style.
I was afraid of angering her and bringing about a fatal disaster.
Gong Shuwu watched from the side.
He had no other thoughts, he just felt that his lord's words of silence and voice were becoming more and more handy, and he felt itchy seeing it.
Shen Tang looked at the Zhang family who had quieted down.
A member of the atmosphere group was called in to warn: "Keep an eye on all these people, especially the women, children, the elderly and the weak. You can intimidate or threaten them, and kick them if they are not obedient. But if I find any other violent or harassing behavior, no matter who it is, I will chop off their heads!"
The atmosphere group clasped their fists and responded: "Yes."
These were also the details of discipline that the bandits had been brainwashed about again and again. Killing the enemy was killing the enemy, but other dirty tricks were avoided. They used to be bandits, but now that they were under Shen Tang's command, they had to be under her control, especially certain taboos!
They can kill because of the enemy and friend positions, they kill the enemy rather than a specific gender, but they cannot torture because after winning, both sides are the winner and the prisoner, and the means of torture are no longer directed at the enemy but the enemy's gender.
This is naturally not allowed.
She raised her hand to call Gong Shuwu and Qi Shan who had counted the number of people and came over: "Time is running out, let's go to the next one."
The next target is Ha Yin Zhou.
The overall strength is stronger than that of Ha Yin Zhang family.
They were not like Zhang who lost manpower in the military camp, so the overall difficulty was greater. The seal of the governor of Heyin County was also in Kang Shi's hands. Shen Tang could not be invited in by using the title of governor of Heyin County, and he was afraid of alerting the enemy and attacking directly.
"I wonder what the situation is like over there."
Gong Shu Wudao: "It has been accomplished."
There is absolutely no suspense about this.
One is Chu Yao, the other is Zhao Feng.
The two cooperated to raid a small local family.
It's really a waste of talent.
Not to mention the detailed information provided by Bai Su.
Shen Tang felt slightly relieved after hearing this.
"Then we have to speed up as well."
According to the intelligence Bai Su had gathered, they took advantage of the time when the Zhou family's servants and guards were changing shifts to attack from the southwest corner gate, where the guards were the weakest. Nearby was the servants' residence, where the guards were the weakest and the easiest to break through.
We captured two gates in a row but still hadn't encountered any patrolling guards.
At this time, after having a full meal and drinking, it was the right time to wash up and enjoy the warmth and softness of the jade. Candles were lit in the west courtyard. The third wife of the Zhou family was working with her concubine ". Both of them were masters of painting, and were best at splashing ink on landscapes. However, after being busy for a long time, they had only painted a small part of the landscape painting on the table.
The concubine has seductive eyes and a lazy demeanor, a rare beauty. The third wife of the Zhou family was very happy.
He liked this concubine the most. She had superb painting skills and was as good as him. The key was that she could always flatter him just right. He immediately prepared to pick up the wolf brush again and finish the remaining half of the landscape painting in one go. The concubine was about to make a coquettish noise.
Bang—
There was a loud bang and the tightly closed door broke open.
The cold wind from outside rushed in, taking away the warm spring atmosphere inside. When the cold wind blew on the exposed skin, goose bumps immediately appeared. The third wife of the Zhou family was so angry that she was about to pull up her clothes and go around the screen to see what was going on.
"Where are the people? Where did they die?"
He could only hear the noise but not see the scene through the screen, and he thought it was caused by a careless servant, and he was furious and wanted to kill. He had just walked around the screen and was about to speak to show off his prowess when a corpse was knocked in from outside and almost hit him.
Good guy—
He was so shocked by the scene that he lost all his inspiration for painting.
"yes-"
The rest of the words came to an abrupt end.
A black shadow flashed before his eyes, and a heavy object hit him in the face. Before he could scream, his jaw was removed, and then there was a sharp pain in his calf. He bent over in pain, and his lower abdomen was hit hard again. After a series of sneak attacks, his fighting power was completely lost.
He opened his mouth and wanted to scream for help.
The concubine was also frightened by this scene.
He opened his mouth to scream but no sound came out.
Another silence and silence!
Shen Tang stormed Zhou's house, distributing the Silence and Sound package for free. All the living creatures along the way who might make a sound to warn others received the Silence and Sound package. Yes, it was living creatures, not people. The yellow dog that Zhou kept at the corner gate was also banned.
Gong Shuwu: “…”
Come one silence one, come two silence two! Therefore, the two walls following the Zhou's main courtyard were discovered, and the guest official of the Wenxin scholar who came over had not yet begun to show his power, and Yan Ling was silenced by her half-heartedly, and retaliated on the spot.
Gong Shuwu: “…”
Qishan: “…”
At this moment, Qishan was very regretful. Very regretful.
Why did he have to teach Shen Tang this when there were so many other words to teach him
After this night, I'm afraid I'll have mastered it.
Finally, outside the main courtyard of the Zhou family, Shen Tang and his party encountered resistance. The Zhou family's guards and servants came one after another, including several brave warriors leading the way, no less than five fourth-class warriors, three fifth-class doctors, and one sixth-class official doctor. Among them, the head of the Zhou family was a scholar with a strong literary talent.
These are only the combat forces that can arrive from Zhou’s internal ranks. The others have not received the news yet, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Shen Tang rolled up his sleeves and was not polite.
This time is different from the time at Bingfang.
Shen Tang not only had to deal with several brave warriors and literary scholars, but also had to distract herself to protect the people she brought with her to avoid large-scale casualties, which was not worth the loss. But now with Qi Shan and Gong Shuwu, she had no worries.
what does that mean
It means she can let loose.
The head of the Zhou family looked at the chaotic scene and was so angry that his face trembled. His family was well-known in Heyin and secretly dealt with nearby bandits. Not to mention attacking other people's land, even kidnapping other people would be a big deal.
"Who are you? Get out!"
Shen Tang was too lazy to talk.
Pick up the sword and kill!
In the blink of an eye, he rushed into the enemy group, kicked them away or stabbed them, disrupted the team formed by the Zhou family servants, and made it impossible for them to take care of both ends. He then killed the sixth-rank official. He stabbed the opponent's heart with a sword, but was blocked by the surging martial energy.
In the end, he only tore the other person's collar.
Even so, it is enough to scare the other party.
After all, this was the main battlefield of the Zhou family, and the house was not Shen Tang's, so she had no regrets about destroying it - well, sooner or later she would have to tear it down and rebuild it, and she would use the Zhou family's manpower to help her with the demolition. One side was timid, and the other side was fearless.
The overall strength of the two sides was very different, and the balance of victory undoubtedly tilted towards Shen Tang, who took down the Zhou family in just two quarters of an hour.
Of course, there are bound to be some that slip through the net.
Qi Shan: "The head of the Zhou family escaped under escort."
Gong Shuwu said: "I'll go after him!"
What if the head of the Zhou family escapes
The results of this action were halved.
Shen Tang tried to stop Gong Shuwu: "No need, let's hurry up and leave these missed fish to Ji Shou. We should find him something to do, otherwise it will be boring."
If she really let him run away, it wouldn't matter. Most of the Zhou family members fell into her hands. Without manpower and assets, the head of the family alone wanted to make a comeback and pose a threat to her? Does he have the foundation? If he did, he wouldn't be a hero in Ha Yin.
at the same time-
Kang Shi sneezed in the night breeze.
When he received the blue bird message from Qishan, he knew the action had begun. He immediately closed all four gates of Fugu City, imposed martial law in the city, and ordered the people assigned to watch various places on the city walls to keep a close watch and not allow any living creature to leave.
"I wonder how many 'turtles' we can catch."
This is the lord’s first battle in Fugu City.
The more thorough the victory, the more solid the foothold will be, and future development will be less constrained. Even Kang Shi, who was used to big storms, felt indescribably nervous. He took it seriously and checked back and forth, fearing that there would be omissions somewhere and the "turtle" would slip away!
If so—
That would be a shame in Kangshi’s life!
Shen Tang and his team raided several houses, but quite a few escaped - after all, not all clan members lived in the clan territory and went back to sleep at night. In addition, the scene was chaotic during the fight, so some people might take advantage of the situation and slip away.
When these people who had escaped the net learned that it was the new governor of Heyin County who had murdered them, they were filled with indignation, their teeth grinding at the back of their mouths, and they wished they could capture Shen Tang and chop him into pieces. Many of them even didn't know that there was a new governor in Heyin County.
When he learned that it was the county magistrate who did it, he was shocked.
"Didn't he fall into the pond and drown in the middle of the night?"
"That was the one before that!"
"What should I do now?" He was panic-stricken.
They were ready to seek refuge with a family they were close to, but as soon as they approached, they were blocked by an invisible barrier of cultural energy. They knew that this family was also in trouble! In order not to reveal their whereabouts, they had no choice but to continue to flee, and they were desperate to escape from Fugu City!
However, how could it be so easy to escape
As soon as he approached the city wall, he was discovered by a secret stalker.
"Why is the city wall closed?"
You have to know that because the government office of Fugu City is too poor, the people guarding the city gates are all old soldiers with gray hair and blurry eyes. They have no land to farm and they do this job to avoid starving to death and for a little bit of extremely meager food.
They are old and weak, and the guards are basically non-existent. It takes strength to open and close the city gates, and the city gates are generally not keyed.
Of course, another reason was that there were always a few disciples who went out to play and returned late at night. Who dared to stop them from going outside the city? Previously, there was an old soldier who closed the city gate, but was beaten to death on the spot by a few dandy boys the next day.
Over time, the city gate was no longer closed.
Today, not only are the city gates closed, but the long-lost city defense barrier has also been raised! You must know that this barrier cannot be opened without the county governor's seal, and it is a defense that can only be opened for a short period of time during war.
This new county magistrate obviously came prepared!
With such thoughts in mind, the faces of those who had escaped the net turned grim, but they had no choice but to try to break out.
If we are blocked in the city, we will be caught sooner or later.
Although they didn't know Shen Tang's attitude towards them, whether he would simply arrest him as a deterrent or kill him, they couldn't afford to take the risk!
