Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Come on, boss, let's have another bowl!"

"This crab has eight claws! And it's this big with pointed ends!"

"Fifteen, fifteen, twenty!"

Inside the county government office, Dong Ping's two hundred men were enthusiastically playing drinking games and making fistfights. Some were arm wrestling, some were grappling, and others were gambling.

In short, this soldier's thuggishness is off the charts!

"Boss, how about we have some fun tomorrow?"

A trusted confidant, standing beside Dong Ping, offered him a bowl of wine and then spoke.

"Where can we go for fun in this shabby little county town? Let's grab our stuff tomorrow and then go back to have some fun!"

Dong Ping got more and more bored as he drank. Seriously, he thought he could spend the night with the girls, but he ended up with you guys instead. A bunch of roughnecks, can't you do anything else besides drinking, playing drinking games, wrestling, and gambling?

"Going back to have fun would be even better. Yanggu County is really not interesting. I'm not saying this to be mean, but boss, of the six counties under Dongping Prefecture, this is probably the worst!"

Just as Dong Ping was about to answer, he suddenly heard a loud shout coming from outside the county government office:

"Don't let the traitor escape!"

Then, Dong Ping saw a large number of armored soldiers file in from the entrance of the county government office. As soon as they entered, they began to circle around the area and surrounded Dong Ping's troops who were still drinking.

At this moment, the magistrate of Yanggu County also appeared from the crowd, followed by three men dressed as military officers. Together with Wu Song, who had run out of the county government office, they arrived not far from Dong Ping.

"Your Excellency, don't you owe me an explanation? What are you trying to do?"

Dong Ping was puzzled. What's going on? How dare they ambush the entire prefecture's military commander in a mere small county town?

This is outrageous!

"Hmph, what am I going to do? Don't you know the answer in your heart?"

The magistrate put on a very angry expression.

He was also helpless. When Ren Yuan proposed this plan, he was shocked because it was practically impossible. "Ren Yuan, before you give me a county to govern, don't you dare strip me of all my current positions."

But Ren Yuan told him directly, "You've already helped this far, so why not go all the way? In the end, as long as you say you were misled by bad people, nothing will happen."

As for the rest, we'll talk about it later. Just don't go back on your word later.

So now, the magistrate of Yanggu County is an Oscar-winning actor!

"Of course I don't know, Your Excellency. We are from the prefecture. Where did you get the audacity to let this group of people surround me and even pull out knives at me?"

Dong Ping slammed his hand on the table and stood up, exuding an aura of dominance, intending to intimidate the county magistrate.

But Xu Ning and Hua Rong stepped forward at the same time, shielding the magistrate behind them and blocking Dong Ping's oppressive aura.

“If you were truly from Dongping Prefecture, I would naturally not neglect you, but you are not! You even pretended to be a soldier from Dongping Prefecture to freeload here! You bunch of petty thieves, you have some nerve!”

Look, the magistrate of Yanggu County, how well he acts!

"Bullshit! What nonsense! We don't freeload anywhere! Who told you that?!"

Dong Ping was furious, and his men were angered as well!

"That's right, we are the legitimate Dongping Prefecture army, who's pretending?"

"That's right, that's right. On the contrary, you, a mere county magistrate, actually have so many armored soldiers. Are you planning a rebellion?"

"Heh, they won't shed a tear until they see the coffin."

The county magistrate sneered at Dong Ping and the others.

"Look at yourselves! How can you be considered elite soldiers of Dongping Prefecture? You're all drinking, playing drinking games, and gambling. Is this how Dongping Prefecture trains its soldiers?"

"Then, you came to Yanggu in the middle of the night without any documents or seals, only the verbal orders from your so-called supervisor. Who knows if they're real or fake!"

"Furthermore, our county government office was attacked by bandits this afternoon, and you came here late at night, behaving rudely and trying to break down the door. Are you government troops? You're just a bunch of bandits!"

It must be said that the magistrate of Yanggu County is indeed capable; he can just spout nonsense and keep bringing up all sorts of dirty tricks!

"Bullshit! Who are you calling a bandit!"

Dong Ping particularly hated being called a bandit. He was a heroic double-gunner and a dashing nobleman!

"You're just a lowly county magistrate, yet you've hidden so many armored elite troops. You're the real bandit!"

"Hmph, do you know who they are? They are soldiers transferred from Lin'an Prefecture to Kaifeng Prefecture! They're passing through Yanggu County tonight to rest! I'll have them deal with you imposters again!"

The magistrate of Yanggu County is having a great time confronting Dong Ping!

That bit of arrogance from before has now truly been unleashed!

What makes you say they're genuine?

When Dong Ping heard that the troops were government troops transferred from Lin'an Prefecture to Kaifeng Prefecture, he felt somewhat relieved. After all, they were all government troops, and everyone could just explain it to each other.

But the magistrate kept insisting that it was true or false, which annoyed Dong Ping.

"First, they have official seals!"

The magistrate of Yanggu County said this, and Ren Yuan stepped forward and took out their official seals.

"We are the Linhai cavalry of Lin'an Prefecture, ordered to be transferred to Kaifeng Prefecture. We passed through Yanggu County, and the magistrate of Yanggu County said that there was a group of people with a bandit-like demeanor who also claimed to be government troops and stopped here. May I ask which unit you belong to?"

Dong Ping took a look and exclaimed, "Good heavens! There really are official documents and seals. It seems they really are from Lin'an Prefecture."

What's Kaifeng Prefecture up to? They actually transferred people from Liangzhe Road.

"We are from Dongping Prefecture."

"Is there any document or seal to prove it?"

Ren Yuan had already heard from the county magistrate that Dong Ping did not produce any documents when he came in.

Since you don't have it, then my fake one is the real one.

"No."

Dong Ping suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He usually does this escort work without any paperwork, because their job is shady!

How could the prefect possibly approve the document for him? That would be giving himself leverage against him!

So I always do this work secretly.

Who would have thought that I would run into this now!

For a moment, Dong Ping cursed inwardly, "Yanggu County Lieutenant, you unlucky bastard! Who told you to get injured at this time!"

"Without official documents and seals, how could your Dongping Prefecture garrison arrive in Yanggu County in the middle of the night? This is completely against the rules! And without documents, how can you prove you are from Dongping Prefecture!"

Ren Yuan sneered and retorted to Dong Ping.

“Magistrate of Yanggu County, have you heard that the prefectural army is coming to your Yanggu County tonight?”

"Of course not, sir. I suspect that these two hundred-odd people are a band of bandits! They tricked their way into opening the city gates, intending to rob and plunder!"

The magistrate of Yanggu County made a resentful expression.

"I was caught off guard and let them in. Luckily, a major disaster hasn't happened yet. Please, sir, assist Yanggu County in capturing these bandits!"

"Good! Today, the Lin Hai Army will make a name for itself!"

Ren Yuan and the magistrate of Yanggu County worked in unison and quickly gained the upper hand in the situation!

"Wait a minute! This is a misunderstanding! Your Honor, you can ask your county constable; he knows me!"

Dong Ping admitted defeat, after all, they had just put aside their troops' weapons in order to drink.

The group of people surrounding them now were all fully armed and ready to fight.

We can't beat them, we really can't beat them.

Moreover, they are all government troops. If they are arrested, Dongping Prefecture will lose face in front of Lin'an Prefecture!

"Sir, he's lying! Our county constable was just injured by thieves this afternoon! He can't possibly testify!"

The magistrate of Yanggu County has delivered the decisive blow!

"It seems you really are imposters!"

Ren Yuan looked at Dong Ping and grinned:

"Brothers, take down these imposters!"
