Many years later, Min Yuanqi may recall this day. On the cold and bone-blooded Huai River, he stood on a dilapidated canal ship, his muscles were tense, and his heart was extremely nervous.

Liang Shifa, Yang Zhijin and Gao Cuncheng should have a tacit understanding. Although the three of them dare not violate the order, they will never rush forward for Min Yuanqi at this moment.

The same is true for the other flag soldiers. Even though Guan Er was scolded by blood, they all lowered their heads and frowned, and did not dare to speak out.

Xie Xiang was only twenty years old, and his whole life was like a stone, his whole body was full of muscles, and his eyebrows were square. This was a young man with a violent temper, but when he heard Guan Er scolding "the donkey and horse ejaculation", Xie Xiang's face turned red and his body was trembling, but he also forced himself to not go forward and speak.

Who is Guan Er?

The salt class recommendation like Yang Shida is actually just an official title. More than a hundred people under him are all gangsters, scoundrels, green skins, and idle hands. They pick out any of them. They are quite famous figures in all villages and villages. Ordinary gangsters on the streets cannot get under Yang Shida's nose.

Guan Er enjoyed fighting with others since he was a child, and he started with a black and ruthless move. He was a typical brave and ruthless bastard. He was sent to serve as a military officer for many times because of his life, and then he was given a general amnesty and released back.

From Yuntiguan to Guannan, Guan Er is a famous and tough guy. Many people rumored that there were many major cases of kidnapping and tearing up meat tickets, all of which were done by Guan Er and others.

He bullies men and women and acts rampantly. He is afraid that more than one person will be killed in the past twenty years. With Yang Shida as his backer, how could ordinary people dare to provoke such a murderous person? Not to mention ordinary military households, even Min Yuanqi, Guan Er was not afraid of it at all.

Fortunately, in the 17th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, the status of warriors was actually slowly increasing. People knew that it was a chaotic time, and subconsciously became more awe of those who held the knife handle, but that was for "soldiers". The military servants in front of them were still considered to be looked down upon.

Li Junsun and Wang Wumai stood beside Min Yuanqi on the left and right. Both of them lowered their heads slightly, as if they had to go forward, but they didn't know what to do. Their expressions were a little embarrassed, and they seemed a little embarrassed, as if they felt like they wanted to say sorry to Guan Er. This caused trouble for Guan Er and the salt diners...

As for Min Yuanjin and Min Yuanzhong, although the two brothers of the family did not retreat behind and put on a stance that had nothing to do with them, Min Yuanqi was a relative of the clan, and in addition, they tried the hundred households and general flags. Whether it was a kinship or official relationship, the two brothers had to stand in front, but that was limited to this...

It was only then that Min Yuanqi realized that he had no consideration for his work. If it were Min Yuanqi in this life, he would not be able to think thoroughly. Min Yuanqi in later life had worked for many years. Although the environments in the past and later life were very different and the things he came into contact with were very different, the basic principles could still be shared.

Simply put, it means ignoring the enemy's strength and pressure, and also ignoring the preparations of one's own side.

This kind of tax-like commission method has been in operation for many years. Many thousand households and even the commander's salt ships have received bank payments. Isn't the interest involved here easy? Min Yuanqi had no idea of ​​resisting at all. The will of later generations and the impulse in this life made him make a decision. Now it seems that he is still a bit rash.

This is not bad... The most important thing is that Min Yuanqi really understands now that his subordinates, including servants and clan brothers, are not reliable. Min Yuanqi has been in office for less than a year, and neither of his kindness nor power has been displayed. Even a general flag like Han Sen clearly looks down on him. He has no confidant in encountering problems and no thugs during disputes. This is the origin of the embarrassing situation at present.

Even so, Min Yuanqi did not intend to retreat.

This time it shrinks and spreads it, it will definitely lose its reputation. It will take ten times more effort to recover it. Moreover, Min Yuanqi didn't think these people in front of him were terrifying. They were just bullying good gangsters. If they were evil, you would be even worse than him.

Although the decision is a bit rash, it does not mean that the decision is wrong. Min Yuanqi knew that the current situation had to open a gap, and he had to calmly spread it both internally and externally. He could follow the steps and start slowly and calmly, but now it is the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, so how can he have time?

Guan Er cursed a few times, and saw the flag army's reaction, his eyes were full of suspicion.

"What exactly should the thief be with the army?" A man next to Guan Er cursed: "How can we have that time to waste with you, the dogs?"

"What are you calling me?" Min Yuanqi jumped up and landed on the wooden dock.

Min Yuanqi's burly body stepped on the semi-wet wooden board, and the pressed wooden pier made a creaking sound.

"I asked you to try the master of the hundred households?" Guan Er smiled at first, then spat, spit on the ground with a "slap", and said angrily: "The official who is not a good person, where did the bachelor come from? Want to show off his power to your Master Guan Er? You call you a thief and a military officer to lift you up, hurry up and take out the silver. Ten taels of silver beards must be one cent less. If you dare to lose, my eyes will recognize you as a hundred household, and my fists must not recognize you..."

Guan Er really never took Min Yuanqi seriously. He was just a test of a hundred household officials. In Huaian Prefecture and various counties, there must be hundreds of military officers in Huaian Guards and Dahewei, which is less valuable than the village chief. The poorer 100 households are stronger than beggars. A few broken thatched houses cover their bodies, and food and clothing may not be able to make ends meet. The Ming Dynasty court had long since paid normal salary to military officers in the garrison. If the ancestors had not purchased some land and left behind, let alone the general banner, hundreds of households, and thousands of households were poor and fewer?

"Then let's compete with fists!" Min Yuanqi was originally calm, but although he was thinking about taking action, he was unable to punch for a long time.

He was a human being in a group fight when he was a child, but he was just a kid playing tricks. Min Yuanqi in later generations has always been a good student with good character, and in this life he is a family of military officers. Who would really fight him if he had nothing to do?

At this moment, listening to Guan Er's scolding, Min Yuanqi was first upset, then his anger surged, and his blood was boiling, and a heat of resentment arose. At the last moment of Guan Er's noise, he saw Min Yuanqi punching him in front of him.

Guan Er hurriedly dodged, but Min Yuanqi's movement was extremely fast. He even had a faint fist when he punched. He held his left fist to his waist, twisted his waist from the right, and slid his legs one by one and one by one behind. His whole body turned half a circle like a gyro, and then he swung his right fist and suddenly hit Guan Er's face.

Everyone heard a "click" sound, Guan Er groaned, but the bone on the bridge of his nose was shattered by this powerful punch!

Seeing Guan Er’s entire face twisted in pain, tears and blood splattered together, and his entire nose was beaten so hard that it was not crooked, Min Yuanqi felt a sense of pleasure in his heart!

Everyone around was shocked. He had always only one group of people to beat others. Who dared to attack Guan Er?

"Kill him to death, kill this thief's army." Guan Er was in pain and angry, and took a few steps back and pointed at Min Yuanqi, and shouted: "Don't bother him, the small flag of the Hundred Houses General Banners, kill him to death, I will pay his life for him!"

If it is a dark night or a private fight, it is only a trivial matter to beat people to death. If more than a hundred people in this pier are killed, they are probably afraid that they will be punished. Guan Er is also fierce. At this time, he does not shrink at all, and is not even afraid of being arrested and punished.

Min Yuanqi also slightly experienced the fierceness of the rogues in this era. These people may not dare to go to the battlefield to fight with the enemy. They fight privately but are willing to live. The kind of good thing that the other party immediately frightened and begged for mercy with a punch, Min Yuanqi had no chance to meet.

When Guan Er shouted like this, more than a dozen scoundrels rushed up.

Whether it is tax or salt, these people are all tycoons raised by Yang Shida and Guan Er. The daily food, clothing and expenses are all based on Guan Er and Yang Shida. If they don’t dare to take it, the job will be ruined. Therefore, since Guan Er said that he dared to pay his life, these people rushed up with red eyes.

Min Yuanqi rushed up to five or six people in front of him.

They are all men with tall donkeys and big horses, but ordinary people are not qualified to be gangsters. Jiangbei is not as developed as Jiangnan. If all prefectures and counties in Jiangnan have battles, the fighters should be more professional in taking action. Whether they are beaten to others to death, or torture people to harm others, or even to fight for life, there are public prices for a life of dozens or hundreds of taels of silver. As long as there is a buyer, someone will sell it. It is generally used to sue the yamen. Once a person dies, from officials to officials to three squads of constables, the idle yamen will fall on blood like flies. If the accident is broken, it will never be done.

But here in Jiangbei, it’s straightforward!

Several people fought together, some punched in front of each other, some kicked sideways, and some people flashed aside, pointing at the bow of the ship, Wang Wumai and others cursing, warning these people not to take action.

Min Yuanjin and Min Yuanzhong looked excited. No matter what, Min Yuanqi was a superior and a clan. According to the custom of the Ming Dynasty, it was to help relatives but not help others. People in this clan fought with outsiders, and they always only helped people of the clan. What's the reason? After the fight, the two small flags were in an extremely awkward situation. If it were an ordinary group fight, they would naturally go up to help Min Yuanqi. But the group of people in front of them were all extremely vicious rogues, and they knew Min Yuanjin and others well. After the fight, there were still follow-up troubles. These people said they were military officers of the Wei Institute. In the eyes of these rogues, their identities were no different from ordinary people.

What other military officers who can’t even eat enough to talk about their identity?

But as he watched the clan relatives and superiors be beaten, the Min family had some foundation in Dahewei at least. This matter spread, and Min Yuanjin and Min Yuanzhong would not be able to be human.

Anyway, it's a dilemma...

It seemed as if they could see the hesitation and fear of Min Yuanjin and others. Several green skins pointed at Min Yuanjin and others and scolded him, while looking proud.

They have always been the only ones who bullied others, and no one dared to resist. The top class of the Ming Dynasty were of course the emperor, eunuchs, nobles, civil officials, and military officials. In recent years, the status of military officials has also increased. But these people are the ruling class and do not involve the civil order. Among the people, the sixth house clerks and the third squad leader are already unattainable big names. Those ordinary clerks, scoundrels in the yamen, and the general armor in the local area are the most feared by the people.

The green scoundrel who is good at fighting with local governments is the most difficult person in the lower class. When they form a force, even the casual yamen troupe and gentry are unwilling to provoke them.

When everyone was hesitating, Min Yuanqi had already been punched a few times. He was good at it. Two of them were hit by the green skin in front of him. One of them was swollen with his eyes and covered his eyes and retreated. The other was hit in the abdomen with a heavy punch, and he huddled to the ground and vomited.

But there are a lot of salt dips at the pier, and knocking down two of them will arouse more people to come and fight.

Guan Er was in pain and burst into tears. Seeing that there were five or six people surrounding Min Yuanqi, there were about a dozen green skins on the periphery. The flag soldiers were so scared that they dared not move. His face showed cruelty and excitement.

If Min Yuanqi really beat him to death, Guan Er dared not.

Now the status of the martial artists is gradually rising. After all, the other party is a sixth-rank military officer, and it is a lot of trouble if he is beaten to death. But if he is beaten to death, he will be seriously injured. As long as the person does not die, there will never be any official to stand up for Min Yuanqi.
