    At this moment, Ding Fu had already led more than a hundred cavalrymen to rush out of the formation. Behind them were Fan Kuai, Wang Zhou, Zhou Bo, Wang Huang, Zhang Chun and other infantrymen, waving their weapons and shouting.  Kill the robbers.  The bandits fought all night, suffered repeated setbacks, and were exhausted. At this time, reinforcements came from the other side. They were attacked before and after, and they lost their command. They no longer had the intention to resist, and immediately fled in all directions.  The masked bandits knew that the situation was over and had no intention of gathering the fleeing bandits. They kicked the horse in the belly and took the road to the south.  Except for the masked bandit who saw the opportunity quickly and rushed out of the battle group with a few of his men, the remaining ten bandit leaders were blocked by the bandits who were running in chaos. Although they ran into the bandits regardless of their lives, their speed was still slow after all.  When they came down, Lu Yuanpeng, Dong Zhu, Liu Zhao, Xue Ou, Wang Hui, Chen Bi and other ferocious spirits who were chasing after them violently hacked and killed them all.  When Lu Yuanpeng tried to chase away the masked bandit again, the bandit had already run far away.  At this time, the bandits were fleeing in all directions. Ding Fu was leading his hundreds of cavalry and the escorting coachmen who rushed out of the carriage formation and were busy chasing the bandits. Lu Yuanpeng ordered Xue Ou and Wang Hui.  "The bandits no longer have the will to fight. Those who surrender will not be killed." Xue Ou and Wang Hui took the order and called on their men to run out of the circle on horseback. They scattered around the bandits, slashing and killing the fleeing bandits while shouting loudly.  "Those who surrender will not be killed. Those who surrender will not be killed" Driven by more than 200 cavalry and more than 300 infantry, most of the remaining bandits surrendered. Only a few bandits broke into the road and rushed towards Daze.  This time the booby-trapped bandits were completely victorious.  When Lu Yuanpeng met Chen Xi and Ding Fu, as well as Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo and Chen Xi and Ding Fu's subordinates, he couldn't help but express his gratitude and condolences.  In this battle, more than 800 bandits were burned, drowned, shot, and hacked to death, and more than 600 were captured. Only less than 200 bandits took advantage of the chaos and fled into Daze.  More than 40 of the guards and carriage drivers led by Chen Xi and Ding Fu were killed and more than 100 were seriously injured.  For these dead and injured, Lu Yuanpeng promised to provide compensation according to his cavalry standards.  In addition to receiving pensions for the deceased¡¯s family members, the drivers from Peixian County can also work in the Lu family¡¯s workshop if they are willing.  As for the pensions for the businessmen¡¯s guards, Lu Yuanpeng promised to collect them at the Lu family when the businessmen come to Pei next time.  The fat businessman also came with the convoy this time. Hearing what Lu Yuanpeng said, he immediately changed his mind and said to Lu Yuanpeng with a bright smile.  "L¨¹ County Lieutenant kills thieves to eliminate harm for the people. How can the County Lieutenant pay for the death and injury compensation from his own pocket? Li is not talented. For the five bodyguards who were killed or injured by me, the compensation expenses will be based on the amount mentioned by the County Lieutenant.  Li is out." As soon as the fat man said this, not only Lu Yuanpeng, but also Chen Xi, Ding Fu and a group of wealthy businessmen were stunned. Lu Yuanpeng never expected that this fat man would have such a good heart despite his greedy appearance.  .  There was a businessman who was familiar with Fatty¡¯s behavior and was even more surprised by what Fatty said.  Without waiting for Lu Yuanpeng to appease him and say goodbye, the fat man cupped his hands and said, "There are some small things that the county lieutenant shouldn't worry about. It's just that Li has something to ask for, and I hope the county lieutenant will agree to it." "Okay. But it doesn't matter." Successfully killed the bandit, and he has this  The fat man was willing to donate his money. Lu Yuanpeng was in a good mood and nodded in agreement without thinking.  The fat man said with a smile on his face: "This visit to Pei, the Lu family's red and yellow oils and sake are eye-opening, but there are many people. According to the rules set by the county captain, Li can only buy red and yellow oils next month."  Ten jars each of oil and sake. Li wants to ask the county captain to sell five jars more for the sake of killing the bandits." After saying this, the fat man also felt embarrassed, and his tone was a little hesitant.  .  It was only then that everyone understood what the fat man was thinking, and they couldn't help but admire the fat man's cunning and clever mind.  You must know that a jar of red and yellow oil or sake can be taken back as huge profits several times over. Even if Lu Yuanpeng follows the pension rules set by Lu Yuanpeng and provides pensions to his subordinates, there will still be a lot left over.  Not only was he not at a loss, but he also had a relationship with the Lu family, so he wouldn't do such a good thing.  A group of wealthy businessmen who had thought clearly came forward one after another and said impassionedly that they would not let Lu Yuanpeng, who was doing harm to the people, pay out of his own pocket, and they would take care of all the pensions themselves.  Of course, these people also expressed the hope that Lu Yuanpeng could sell them more red and yellow oil and sake next month.  Lu Yuanpeng couldn't help but secretly sigh that the wisdom and scheming of the ancients were no worse than that of a man like him who lived for more than two thousand years.  Lu Yuanpeng is in a happy mood today. It is also his wish to have a good relationship with these wealthy businessmen.  "Peng Ling thanks you all for your kindness. This eradication of the bandits depends entirely on your help, and Peng has agreed to your request. If one of your men dies, the Lu family will sell an extra jar of butter every month, and if one person is seriously injured, an extra jar of sake will be sold.  If one person is injured, one jar of red oil will be sold.?.  .  " The Qinzheng Hall in the Qin Palace in Xianyang was the place where the First Emperor usually reviewed official documents and met with close and important officials to discuss matters. In the spacious and tall palace, with high silk curtains, the thin and stern face of the First Emperor sat on his knees behind the desk, under his tall  Behind the body, there stood a eunuch holding several scrolls of silk in both hands, with a pale face and half-closed eyes, as if he was asleep. On the left and right sides of the First Emperor, there were four tables, and on his knees sat the Prime Minister Wang Wan.  There are several dwarfs placed around the main hall: Right Prime Minister Feng Quji, Tingwei Li Si, Yu Shi Mengyi, Su Zheng, the official in charge of grain management, Zhang Han, the Shaofu Ling, Cui Ping, the Sishui County Supervisor, and Xu Kan, the Pei County Magistrate.  The red charcoal fire inside the bronze cauldron emits warm heat. Even though it is winter, the empty palace feels like spring. Although the doors and windows of the main hall are closed, hundreds of candles as thick as arms can illuminate the surroundings.  Below, the hall is as bright as day. There are four bronze cranes more than five feet high standing in the four corners of the hall. The long sharp mouths at the front of the curved and slender necks of the bronze cranes are emitting a faint green smoke, exuding a refreshing fragrance, which is obviously right.  The best spices are burning. Unlike in the past, it seems that today the Emperor is not discussing matters, but the Emperor is entertaining these ministers. The same dishes are placed on the copper beans on the nine desks, including the Emperor.  There are four hot and cold dishes: winter melon meat slices, cold shredded bamboo shoots, stir-fried mutton, and preserved eggs, plus a plate of golden donkey rolls. From the number of dishes left in the copper beans, it can be seen that this is a banquet for the monarch and his ministers.  It has been going on for some time. Ji Ping and Xu Kan arrived in Xianyang a few days ago. They have been summoned by the First Emperor several times. In the past few days, Ji Ping has visited the palace every day to explain to the palace chef what he had learned at the Lu family.  The cooking skills of the palace chefs were indeed excellent. They had mastered the cooking skills to 78% just by Ji Ping's explanation, and the dishes they produced were extremely delicious, which greatly pleased the First Emperor.  It was a great honor for the two of them to be summoned by the First Emperor to have a banquet with these important ministers. According to the request of the First Emperor, Jiping told all the ministers what Black Dragon Fu Ying and Lu Yuanpeng had done during the banquet.
