Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 1593 1595【Offensive and defensive battle】

"Miss Qiuxue, you don't have to be so inferior. My junior brother doesn't mind it at all. He told me in person that you are a good woman." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Furthermore, our old gentleman sees no one but our own people. Who will chew the root of the tongue?"

Hearing what he said, Qiu Xue couldn't help feeling a little bit moved.

Xiang Nan observed his words and added fuel to the flames, "Miss Qiuxue, there is only one life in this life, why bother to care too much about worldly perspectives. Only by letting go of your obsessions can you embrace happiness."

Qiu Xue was persuaded by him and nodded.

In the next few days, under Xiang Nan's persuasion, Qiuxue took the initiative to attack, not only showing affection and warmth to Jun Bao, but even sewing clothes for him with her own hands.

Although Jun Bao has a pure mind and never thought about love between men and women, he is not a heartless person. Facing Qiu Xue's affectionate style, she couldn't help being very moved.

Coupled with Xiang Nan and Xiao Donggua's continuous beating of the side drums, the relationship between the two finally achieved a sublimation, from friends to lovers, which can be regarded as a happy ending.

In the film, Junbao and Qiuxue were not able to get together, which once made Xiang Nan very regretful, but now it is finally made up.

...

At the same time, tax collectors were killed all over Heluo Prefecture.

When those tax collectors went to the countryside and cities to collect taxes, they all lost their lives.

Either they were caught in a trap, or they were hit by a cold arrow, or they were assassinated... In less than half a month, hundreds of people died, and the rest of the tax collectors were frightened, and they dared not go out to collect taxes.

When the common people heard about this, they secretly applauded.

Those tax collectors relied on their status as officials and led a large number of soldiers, so they often went to the countryside and cities to collect exorbitant taxes. Anyone who dared to refuse to pay, they would beat them severely, so everyone dared not speak out.

Now, hearing that these tax collectors have all been killed, the common people are naturally all happy.

"Okay, these eunuchs also have today, what a retribution!"

"God has eyes, these dogs are finally dead, retribution!"

"Which hero did it, it really made us angry!"

...

The common people cheered happily, but in contrast, Liu Jin almost exploded with anger.

He intends to rebel and support his own self-respect, so he continues to expand his armaments. Originally, there was only an army of ten thousand under his rule, but he suddenly expanded it to an army of one hundred thousand.

With such a large army, people eat horses and feed them, and they consume a lot of food and grass in a day. Not to mention military uniforms, weapons, armor, pay and so on.

However, the imperial court has limited allocation of money, which is allocated according to the quota of 10,000 people. For the remaining 90,000 people, Liu Jin had to find a way. That's why he collected so many exorbitant taxes, otherwise, how could he maintain the expenses of the 100,000 troops.

But now, all the tax collectors he sent out have been slaughtered, and the tax money cannot be collected, so Liu Jin has become a source of water. At that time, the army's food and salary supply will not be timely, but it will easily cause mutiny.

At that time, his grand plans and great career, the road to be king, will all be in vain. This naturally made him very angry.

"You trash, can't you do this little thing well?" He asked his deputy He Kun angrily, "If you don't collect taxes, I will kill you."

"Elder-in-law, it's not that the lowly job is ineffective. It's that the rebels are too cunning. They hide in the dark, set traps, shoot cold arrows, and poison... It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows. It's impossible to guard against." He Kun immediately explained. , "Furthermore, their whereabouts are erratic, whether east or west, or south or north, they gather and disperse suddenly, and their old dens have not been found out, and it is difficult to catch them all."

"Hmph, what a waste, what's the use of raising you." Liu Jin couldn't help cursing after hearing this.

"It's a humble job and incompetence!" He Kun quickly knelt down and said.

"Send more people out, and increase each team to a hundred." Liu Jin then said, "I don't believe that those rebels are so powerful. If a team of 20 people kills, a team of 100 people can also kill them."

"Yes." He Kun said immediately.

...

However, the tax collection team of a hundred people still couldn't stop the joint assassination of heroes.

Especially Deng Chang, Zhu Gui and others from the Tai Chi school, they have high martial arts skills and are good at combined strikes, so it is no problem to deal with three or four hundred people.

In addition, the common people have learned to be good now, and they will no longer accept it and kill them at will. As soon as Shui Ding went to the countryside, they hid and returned to their hometown after they left.

The food, clothing, money, and livestock in the house are all taken away, so that even if these taxpayers go to the countryside, they can't find anything.

So after more than half a month, Liu Jin still hasn't received enough tax. In order to maintain his army, he has begun to pay out of pocket. After all, if soldiers don't get food or pay, once they mutiny, it's useless for him to guard the eunuch.

"Waste, waste, all waste. A team of hundreds of people will be killed. He Kun, how do you usually train soldiers?" Liu Jin cursed.

"Father-in-law, it's a humble job that is ineffective. But those rebels are indeed powerful, with high martial arts skills and agility. Our soldiers are no match for them." He Kun explained, "From the perspective of the humble job, should we increase the number of people? How about five hundred people, one thousand people?"

"Mobilize a team of 500 people to collect taxes?! Wouldn't it be ridiculous to spread the word?" Liu Jin said in a cold voice.

"What's your opinion, father-in-law?" He Kuan asked quickly.

"Since those rebels are all from the rivers and lakes, martial arts masters, then use martial arts to rule martial arts." Liu Jin ordered, "Find more martial arts masters and let them mix in with the gangsters. They caught them all."

"Father-in-law, that's a great idea, I'll do it right now in a humble position." He Kun said immediately.

"He Kun, you have already failed two major events. If you can't handle it this time, you should come and see me." Liu Jin said coldly.

When He Kun heard this, his face froze.

...

Subsequently, He Kun began to recruit martial arts masters.

The so-called learning literary and martial arts is selling goods to the emperor's family.

Not all people in the martial arts are righteous, so they quickly recruited a group of scum from the rivers and lakes, willing to be the minions of the government's eagles and dogs.

They pretended to be taxpayers and went to the countryside to collect taxes. The heroes of the rivers and lakes thought they were just ordinary soldiers, but they hit a wall.

In less than ten days, more than a dozen heroes were arrested and imprisoned. They were put in large prisons and tortured severely, which also severely damaged the anti-eunuchism.

"Elder-in-law is really good at predicting things, seeing thousands of miles away, he caught them with only one move. I am ashamed of my humble job, and I have no place to be ashamed." He Kun flattered him repeatedly.

"Don't say such beautiful words, He Kun, you know my character, what I want is not a dog that can only wag its tail." Liu Jin glanced at him and said, "Those rebels must have accomplices, we must interrogate them as soon as possible to avoid They fled."

"My father-in-law taught me that. But those people are very stubborn, and for a while, I really can't pry their mouths open." He Kun said hastily.

"Trash, do I need to worry about this?" Liu Jin said coldly, "All of you guys in Dongchang are vegetarians?"

"Yes." He Kun said immediately.
