Chapter 237 Territory

Regret is definitely something to regret, especially the kind of regret you had at the beginning.

Ever since he saw that Wei Zhen dared to swing his sword at Zhang Fei who brought a dense army without saying a word, and Zhang Fei showed a soft attitude towards Wei Zhen, the head of the nine villages felt bad. The army was afraid of him.

Team Tailwind?

This was not what was promised at the beginning. Did the army secretly see that they were defeated by the Shunfeng Team and did not dare to confront them head-on? Or did they want to simply give up and ignore them?

If this is true, who will dare to follow the Yang family's army with peace of mind in the future?

However, the Yang family is used to being domineering, who would care about people at the bottom like them? The head of the Nine Villages was a little confused for a while.

"We didn't grab it. It was because you didn't pay the toll, so we planned to get it ourselves, but we didn't get it. How could we be wrong?"

The village chief knew that he must not compromise, otherwise they would not be able to bear the consequences.

"Sir, you have seen that these bad guys are still making excuses at this time.

Collecting tolls? Haha! Isn’t that what the government is supposed to do? Who gave you the courage to collect tolls? Do you want to overthrow the Da’an Dynasty and make yourself king?”

That would be awesome, a complete rebellion.

The expressions of the village chief and the villagers changed greatly. That was a serious crime that would punish the nine tribes. Who dares to commit such a crime? "You are talking nonsense! We are not guilty!"

"Since there is no rebellion, it is robbery. What you didn't take away is because we have some strength, but the losses suffered by our Shunfeng team are real. Do you want to compensate? Haha, being stubborn is a double crime.

"

If you make a mistake, you have to take responsibility, otherwise anyone can hurt others for their own sake.

"I, at most we considered it an attempted crime. Anyway, we don't have any money or food." The head of the nine villages was defeated, but he didn't want to pay compensation.

I have no money and no food, what can you do to me? A dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He is talking about the village chief of Ninth Village.

"It doesn't matter, we have no money, no food, but we have land! Your Excellency, the county magistrate, they voluntarily allocated land for us to use Shunfeng Station."

Mi Le said that he had been coveting that fertile field for a long time, and it would be the best if he could take it.

"Impossible! This is going to cost us our lives. Without the land, we will starve to death." The village chief began to cry, and the others also cried.

Li Dabai sneered, haha, it really looks like the acting. Those fields belong to the army. They have been serving them for a long time. Do they really want them to be their own assets?

Or maybe if the fields are lost in their hands, they will be held accountable? That's why they want to protect it with all their lives.

"Hmph! Our Shunfeng team has always been merciful. Since you are willing not to compensate, then Sir, you can sentence us.

For robbery, what sentence will be given to the robber?"

The county magistrate was sweating profusely and looked at Zhang Fei cautiously, then at Mi Le, Wei Zhen and the others.

It really creates problems for people. What should I do if he can't afford to offend both sides? The fields are impossible, those fertile fields actually belong to the Yang family.

Should these people be sentenced? That's fine, but if they were sentenced for robbery, it would be severe. The Yang family would be angry, right?

But without compensation, Shunfeng Team will definitely quit.

"Here, girl, do you think this is their first offender's crime? Can you give them a lighter sentence? They still have a family to support."

The county magistrate pointed to the tied people in the middle. There were family members around them crying, as miserable as if they were parting from life or death.

"You are the county magistrate. Of course we believe that you can be fair and strict. As for how to judge, of course it is you who has the final say."

If you don't accept my proposal, then you can make up your own mind. Mi Le spread his hands and retreated.

The county magistrate then really faced Wei Zhen. As soon as he saw her face to face, he immediately trembled.

This, this is the legendary Princess Jin, right? She was so evil that she killed many people.

"Then, then let's use the land to compensate?"

"Ahem!" Zhang Fei beside him suddenly felt a discomfort in his throat and coughed twice.

The county magistrate's body trembled, "Otherwise, we should just sentence him directly? For attempted robbery, he will be sentenced to exile."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Master! These harmful people! You are driving people to death. There is no way to survive. Our whole family will die with you."

"Wow! Daddy!" In an instant, the crying at the scene became even louder.

"Here, how about half the fine and half the execution?" As soon as the county magistrate said these words, the crying stopped immediately, and he could stop crying easily.

Zhang Fei didn't say anything, and Wei Zhen didn't say anything either. The two of them just stared at the pudgy county magistrate.

"For the land, let's give ten acres of top-grade farmland as compensation, but we can have more land. This piece, that piece, and that mountain can all be given to Shunfeng Escort Company.

Let the rest of the prisoners get twenty pieces." Anyway, the land is ownerless.

It was a very arbitrary punishment, but neither party said anything.

Wei Zhen didn't say it, but of course it was because she needed land to build Shunfeng sub-station and inn. It just so happened that the master gave it to her directly. She also got an extra mountain and ten acres of farmland. What else is there to say.

Zhang Fei didn't complain, but he just lost ten acres of land. It was too shabby to give it to a princess, so what's there to say?

When the county magistrate saw that the two people did not object anymore, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a dozen land deeds from his pocket and handed them over.

Was this prepared a long time ago? I don’t know what the county magistrate had in mind.

Mi Le stepped forward and quickly took the land deed, the smile on his face getting wider.

If you feel sleepy, someone will give you a pillow, which is a nice treat!

"Then the case is closed, come here, take the person down and execute him!

I'm leaving first, I'm leaving first." Once again, he escaped from the two tigers, oh my, he is so wise.

The county magistrate admired himself, bowed his hands to everyone, shrank his neck, and sat on his sedan chair again.

"Since there's nothing going on here, let's say goodbye!" Zhang Fei put his hands behind his back and left.

The thirty-year-old young lieutenant took a deep look at Wei Zhen, then turned around and rode away.

The Sichuan troops retreated silently like the tide.

It wasn't until after walking for a while that the thirty-year-old man asked his doubts, "General, are you really going to let those people go like this?"

When they came out this time, not only did they not grab the goods, but they also lost ten acres of land. It's hard to explain to the master, right? Even if it dampens the spirit of the Shunfeng team, it would be good.

"Why are you so anxious? This has just begun, and it's not a life-or-death situation. Do you think there's a need for conflict? You can't fight anyway, so you don't think you can't die, right?

Have you ever experienced that shot? If she really dares to kill you, she can kill you.

Why bother to rush in and act as a backup? You are so stupid, how long do you think you can live?" Zhang Fei sneered.

The backers behind them, no matter how close they are, who would be stupid enough to risk their lives?

The specious words made the big man hear them vaguely, but he also realized that the people in the Shunfeng team were really not easy to deal with.

Then let them go to the next level. The land of Sichuan is not so easy to live in.

"It's done! It's done! Brothers, have a good rest and continue on your journey tomorrow." The horn downwind sounded again.

Everyone immediately resumed their duties in an orderly manner, treating the injured, patrolling, and sleeping.
