The waste prince is so fierce

Chapter 127 Thunderous Means

Therefore, Yang Zhentian guessed that Li Quan would not take any drastic measures against them, and could only adopt the method of boiling a frog in warm water and slowly eroding them like a nibble.

"We just need to send someone to keep a close eye on him. Don't let him find out that we have noticed him, otherwise our plan will fail." Yang Zhentian warned.

"understand!"

The other family heads answered in unison.

……

A month later.

The situation in Yangzhou city is treacherous and unpredictable.

On this day, a group of soldiers marched into Yangzhou City in a mighty manner, and then arrested powerful families and officials everywhere in the city, causing the common people to feel insecure.

For a time, the entire Yangzhou city was in panic.

Some heads of aristocratic families could no longer bear the pressure and secretly found Li Quan, hoping that he could stand up to uphold justice and quell the unrest.

Li Quan did not hesitate and immediately called everyone together.

When he announced his plan, everyone was shocked, "Is he crazy?"

"Isn't this inappropriate? We have no grudges against him, why is he targeting us?"

"Yeah, we have no conflict of interest with him, so why should we be enemies?"

"I heard that his son got into trouble in Chang'an City, and he wants to put the blame on us. He wants to kill us all!"

"I suggest that we withdraw from Yangzhou immediately to avoid being involved with him."

……

Many schools of thought were filled with indignation.

They didn't expect Li Quan to be so cruel. Once they were involved, they would probably die without a burial place.

"I know what you are worried about." Li Quan said with a smile, "We can leave Yangzhou temporarily and come back after the storm has passed. I can guarantee that Li Quan will not vent his anger on any family after we leave. All he has to do is to clean up the pests in Yangzhou."

After hearing Li Quan's promise, the group of people felt relieved.

"Humph! Li Quan, do you really think we are fools?" The head of the Yang family snorted coldly, "I tell you, without us six great families, it is not certain whether Yangzhou City can continue to operate normally!"

"That's right!"

"What does a man have to fear about death?"

"That's right, at worst we'll die!"

The other family heads echoed.

"Well then." Li Quan said calmly, "I happen to be short of a group of people here. How about this? Each family head can select a group of elite soldiers and I will train them together so that they can serve the country in the future."

"You're going to take them to Chang'an?!"

Hearing this, Yang Zhentian's expression suddenly changed, and he blurted out, "Are you disgusted with yourself for living too long?!"

They left Yangzhou this time because they were afraid of being targeted by Li Quan.

If Li Quan really sent them to Chang'an City, they would probably never be able to escape in their lifetime.

"Why? No?" Li Quan asked with a cold face and a chilling tone, "I gave you the last chance. Since you are unwilling to cherish it, don't blame me for being cruel!"

"you!"

"What are you!"

Li Quan shouted coldly, "Do you think I don't know what you are planning? You think that as long as you are in Yangzhou, you can fight against me. Unfortunately, you forgot that I have the imperial court behind me. As long as the imperial court intervenes, you will not be able to make any waves even if you have great abilities. I will give you one day to consider. If you cannot give me a satisfactory result within one day, I will personally escort you to Chang'an. As for the result..."

After a pause, Li Quan continued, "What is the result? I don't need to say more, right?"

"you!"

Everyone's expression changed suddenly.

Li Quan threatened them, which made them very angry, but they could do nothing about it.

After all, the influence of the imperial court is there.

They have no qualifications to challenge the imperial court.

The head of the Han family, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up and said, "Okay, my Han family agrees."

Li Quan's words already revealed his murderous intent.

If he disagrees, he will probably die miserably immediately, or even his entire family will be implicated.

Moreover, the Han family has no way out.

Upon seeing this, the other family heads gritted their teeth and agreed.

"it is good!"

Li Quan smiled and said, "The heads of the families are indeed wise men who know how to deal with current events. They will be rewarded handsomely in the future."

"Hmph!" The family heads snorted coldly, ignored him, turned around and left.

Before they left Li's Mansion, they left a confidant to monitor the Mansion to prevent things from getting out of hand.

……

Not long after the family heads left, a loud rumbling sound was heard outside Yangzhou City, deafening, like thunder.

The family heads were shocked.

Li Quan's eyes also narrowed slightly.

He was very familiar with this noise; it was the noise of a bombing at the armory.

His confidant hurried over to report: "Your Highness, the armory is on fire, and the armory's inventory is almost destroyed."

"what?!"

Li Quan was shocked.

He immediately ordered his guards to check the details.

After a while, the guards returned in a panic and reported: "Sir, the armory caught fire and the losses were heavy."

Upon hearing this, Li Quan almost vomited three liters of blood.

"That's unreasonable!"

He cursed angrily.

The armory was built by him in recent years. It is filled with a huge amount of weapons and ammunition of great value. Any loss would be enough to make him feel painful for a long time.

What's more, the armory is now in complete ruins, everything has been burned down, and there is nothing left.

Moreover, he was forced by Li Yong to borrow 8 million taels of silver from wealthy merchants in Yangzhou City as compensation.

"What shall I do?"

Li Quan looked worried.

"Sir, at this time you should first think about how to overcome the difficulties ahead." Zhang Hu reminded in a low voice.

Yes, this is a critical moment for the rectification of Yangzhou.

But there was a fire in the armory.

A large amount of ordnance was lost.

How does he maintain the normal operation of the army?

"Sir, I just received news that General Li Yong sent 500 sets of armor and 1,000 war horses." Zhang Hu suddenly said, "They are now placed in the armory. Do you need to deal with them immediately?"

Li Quan was stunned.

After being in a daze for a long time, he suddenly became ecstatic: "Quick, move the armor to the tower, I want to inspect the cavalry."

Outside the gate of Yangzhou city, five hundred soldiers in black armor were lined up in a row, each riding a white horse, looking extremely majestic.

These are the elites.

They are well-trained and disciplined, and they are lined up in a row, like a mountain.

Li Quan was riding on his horse, looking at these armored cavalrymen, and he felt that his whole body was filled with endless energy.

"This is a real man, a tough soldier!" he murmured excitedly.

Although Li Yong has a violent personality, he is very particular about military regulations.

The armored cavalry under his command is like a sharp sword.

With their protection, he dares to laugh at the sky with his sword in hand.

"Yangzhou!"

Li Quan's eyes were sharp.

Next, Yangzhou City was where he implemented his new policies.

The memorial regarding the new policy was sent to the capital seven days ago, eight hundred miles away.

Counting the days, it should be here tonight.
