Chapter 35: The Boiling Yongning City
"The Wang family fell, and Master Wang died. He died a tragic death. It was Liang Ge'er from the Shen family who killed him. God is indeed merciful."

"I heard that last night, Liang Ge'er was alone with a knife, killing people everywhere, from the west to the east of the fort, from the north to the south, and blood flowed like a river."

"Wang's huge fortune is a bargain for Liang, isn't it? Ten thousand acres of fertile land, and dozens of shops. The Shen family is prosperous."

"I heard that the Shen family is recruiting 300 servants with generous benefits. Do you want to go? This is a rare opportunity. It's just a matter of life and death, so why not give it a try?"

The small Jingbian Fort was suddenly in an uproar. Many ragged people looked in the direction of Shenjiawu Fort, their eyes unconsciously revealing envy mixed with a little jealousy.

However, thinking of Shen Yuanliang's peerless martial arts, everyone looked around and hurriedly hid the jealousy in their eyes, but their mouths felt bitter and unpleasant.

Ever since the commander of the combat battalion, Shen Zhong, was killed in the Battle of Sarhu, the pillar of the Shen family collapsed. Coupled with Shen Yuanliang being in a coma and seriously ill, everyone thought that the Shen family was going to fall.

Things are changing, come to my house this year!
Unexpectedly, in just over half a month, Shen Yuanliang not only became a tiger-fighting hero, but also brought down the local tiger Wang family, replacing the Wang family and becoming a new powerful family within a hundred miles.

Yongning City, Military Preparation Office.

"Master, that old man Wang Shan is dead. He was killed by a young boy. It's really lawless. Is there still law in Yongning City? Is there still law?"

"Quickly send someone to arrest Shen Yuanliang. Such a powerful person is not allowed to exist in Yongning City!"

Shi Guangxian, a soldier with a big belly and wearing a loose robe, sat on a mahogany armchair, squinting his narrow eyes and said angrily.

After saying that, still not satisfied, he grabbed the teacup on the coffee table and smashed it heavily on the ground. The scalding hot tea spilled all over the floor, making the living room a mess.

As the Wang family was a powerful family within a hundred miles, their every move was closely watched by others. At dawn, the news that Shen Yuanliang had killed Wang Shan with a knife and occupied the Wang family's fortress spread like wildfire, and the Military Affairs Office naturally knew about it.

In the opinion of Bingbei Shi Guangxian, all the property of the Wang family should belong to him and no one else should get involved.

"Sir, Wang Shan was born in Shaolin Temple. He was very powerful and had no rivals in southern Liaoning. But I didn't expect that he would die at the hands of Shen Zhong's son Shen Yuanliang."

"From this point of view, Shen Yuanliang's martial arts skills are probably stronger than Wang Shan's. We should not act rashly at this moment. As the saying goes, it is better to be still than to move."

Master Li, who was thin, stroking his gray goatee and wearing a melon-shaped hat, looked solemnly at the pot-bellied general Bingbei and said with fear.

In the past, Wang Shan relied on the military force in his hands to overwhelm the Bingbei Mansion, and even made the Bingbei Mansion dependent on the Wang family and act according to the Wang family's wishes.

At this moment, the old powerful Wang family has fallen, and the new powerful Shen family headed by Shen Yuanliang seems to be even more difficult to deal with, leaving people helpless and helpless.
"Does it mean that the Wang family's assets can only benefit him?"

"I am the military commander of Yongning City, representing the imperial court. I am the most powerful person here."

Seeing that the duck that was within his grasp flew away and that the huge Wang family fortune was out of his reach, Bingbei Shi Guangxian was very unwilling to accept this and his fingers were creaking from pinching them.

As the military garrison of Yongning City and a fifth-rank military officer of the imperial court, Shi Guangxian was the garrison commander of Yongning City. He was a powerful figure in the entire southern Liaoning region.

However, being an official outside the Great Wall was almost equivalent to being exiled. Shi Guangxian had been devoted to making money for so many years, hoping to bribe his superiors with the money so that he could leave this "barren land".

"My lord, there is a solution!"

"No matter how powerful Shen Yuanliang is, he is alone. If you take him down while he is still unstable, won't the Wang family's assets be yours?"

Li Shiye's gloomy eyes rolled around like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time. In Li Shiye's opinion, although Shen Yuanliang was powerful and no one could be his opponent for the time being, Shen Yuanliang had a fatal weakness.

The reason why Mr. Wang was able to become a powerful tyrant is not only because of the military force in his hands, but also because of the numerous minions and vassals. He has people in both the underworld and the white world. But what does Shen Yuanliang have?
By then, a situation of "a pack of wolves devouring a tiger" will be formed, and he will be killed by the sheer number of people. Shen Yuanliang, who is "alone and helpless", will be doomed.

"The manpower we have is not enough."

When the military officer Shi Guangxian heard this, his eyes as big as green beans lit up instantly, but when he thought of the soldiers under his command who didn't know how to stand or sit properly, his heart sank.

In the past, in order to make more money, Shi Guangxian focused on food and wages, which was a fine tradition of the Ming army.

As a result of exploitation from all levels, 50% of the food and wages were lost again by 30% in the hands of Shi Guangxian, the military commander, making his subordinates miserable. Many military households fled, so that there are no soldiers available now.

"The bandits in Huya Mountain, the guards and servants of the Wang family, and the big and small horse thieves in southern Liaoning are all possible partners."

"While the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits. Let them fight against the Shen family. Then, you can catch them all in the name of suppressing bandits, and you will have both money and credit."

Since ancient times, scholars have not used knives to kill people. As a failed scholar who has failed the imperial examinations many times, Master Li has some skills, otherwise he would not have been hired as an aide.

It’s a pity that in this world, having talent doesn’t guarantee success in the imperial examination. Family background, connections, and money are all essential.

"Hahaha!"

"Master, you are amazing. You scholars are cunning. I will leave this matter to you."

Bingbei Shi Guangxian patted Master Li's shoulder, smiling happily, his eyes narrowed into slits, just like Maitreya Buddha.

Huya Mountain, Juyi Hall.

"Boss, Master Wang was killed by Shen Yuanliang."

The second in command, "Yidaohong", hurried over with an anxious look on his face.

"Shen Yuanliang? Is he the person that the Third Master was planning to kill a few days ago?"

"This little bastard is not simple. He must have killed the Third Master, and now he has killed Master Wang. He is so powerful at such a young age. Could it be that he learned from a famous sect?"

The big boss "Zuoshandiao" put down the barbecue in his hand and said thoughtfully.

After the third in command was killed, the entire Huya Mountain was in a state of panic. They thought that it was a disciple of some big sect who was training in southern Liaoning, and they were in the dark. Unexpectedly, it was that bastard Shen Yuanliang who killed their people in Huya Mountain.

Even Mr. Wang could not escape Shen Yuanliang's clutches.

"The mysterious man who threw Young Master Wang's head into Tiger Tooth Mountain last time was most likely that bastard Shen Yuanliang."

"He has been instigating a fight between our Tiger Tooth Mountain and the Wang family for more than half a month. This guy is quite vicious. Now is a rare opportunity. Why not take advantage of it?"

The second in command "Yidaohong" was quite afraid of Shen Yuanliang. A conspiracy of his forced Huya Mountain into a corner, and they were almost destroyed in his hands. How could he not take revenge for such a deep hatred?
Not to mention that the Wang family's huge fortune is clearly displayed before everyone's eyes. It would be a lie to say that they are not jealous!
