Zhang Rubao has been in Yangzhou for five days. After the assassination of the garrison, the boss Xue Zhinong immediately came to the action team. He took the order of the garrison and asked the action team to send people to Yangzhou to retaliate against the Qi family. Because Zhang Rubao was the captain of the last action team leading the team to Yangzhou, the personnel sent by the action team will also be led by Zhang Rubao.

The order Xue Zhinong issued to Zhang Rubao was very simple, which was to ask the action team to go to Yangzhou to kill the head of the Qi family. Xue Zhinong only set a time for Zhang Rubao that the day to kill the head of the Qi family must be one month later, July 4, 5 and 6 days. How many people should be dispatched by the other action teams and what methods should be used to assassinate? Xue Zhinong ignored everything, and it was up to Zhang Rubao to decide on it himself.

And this time, Xue Zhinong would not lead the operation team to Yangzhou in person, because Xue Zhinong would also do something arranged by Wu Shigong in Henan.

So, Zhang Rubao selected twenty good players from the action team and gathered these people together. Everyone brainstormed a plan for assassination.

However, in the current operation team, there are many soldiers from soldiers. Even if there are a few bandits, they are good at robbery and kidnapping, and they are indeed laymen in assassination.

So everyone discussed for a long time and proposed methods such as poisoning, ambushing, etc., but they were also denied by everyone. Because there were two difficulties in this assassination:

One is that the head of the Qi family must have guards around it, and it is difficult for the members of the operation team performing the assassination to get close to the head of the Qi family; the other is that because it is summer now, everyone is wearing very thin clothes, so those members of the operation team cannot carry very long weapons except for some short daggers.

In the end, the members of the action team thought that the most suitable assassination weapon was the handgun. The assassination method was discussed, so the easiest method was proposed - to send a member of the action team to approach the head of the Qi family with the handgun and shoot at the head of the Qi family.

Don't say that in the end, all the team members agreed that this simple and crude method was the best method. After the method was decided, the person who performed the assassination had to be determined. Zhang Rubao took the initiative and snatched this task.

Zhang Rubao has been in the teahouse opposite the Qi family for four days. He found that every morning, the Qi family always parked the carriage at the main entrance. After a while, the head of the Qi family would take his entourage out of the door and get on the carriage out for business. Yesterday, the action team had already discussed it. Today is the day when Zhang Rubao assassinated the head of the Qi family.

When he saw that the carriage at the main entrance of Qi's house had been parked again, Zhang Rubao left some broken silver on the table, picked up a paper bag on the table and walked out.

In the oil paper bag, there was a hand gun that had long been loaded with gunpowder and bullets. When leaving the teahouse, Zhang Rubao saw that no one around noticed him, so he quickly lit the fuse of the hand gun with the fire medium.

There was a large open space in front of the main entrance of Qi's house. Zhang Rubao walked over slowly. Because he was carrying an oil paper bag, others thought that he was carrying a piece of pork or chicken or duck he had just bought.

Zhang Rubao was getting closer and closer to the carriage. He took two steps and then blew the fuse burning outside the oil paper bag, for fear that the fuse would be extinguished. At this time, the head of the Qi family also walked out of the Qi family's door. He was chatting and laughing with the Qingke beside him, and also walked towards his carriage.

When the head of the Qi family walked to the carriage, Zhang Rubao was only seven or eight steps away from the head of the Qi family. But for the final affirmation, Zhang Rubao raised the oil paper bag in his hand and shouted to the head of the Qi family: "Master Qi!"

The head of the Qi family was about to get on the carriage when he heard someone calling him loudly. He raised his head, raised his chest, and looked at the man who called him. The head of the Qi family saw a thick man holding a grease paper bag in his hand and aimed it at him.

The head of the Qi family found that he didn't know the big man at all, and the big man looked very strange when he held the oil paper bag. The head of the Qi family muttered in his heart: "I don't know where a madman came out." The guards next to the head of the Qi family also walked forward, trying to drive away the madman.

But just now, with a loud bang, a flame spurted out from the oil paper bag. The head of the Qi family felt that his chest was hit hard. He immediately fell down weakly.

When Zhang Rubao saw the blood of spider web-like seeping out of the chest of the head of the Qi family, he knew that the head of the Qi family was already out of salvation. In this era, the bullets of muskets and hand guns were flying very irregularly, so when they hit people's bodies, the bullets would roll and fly. They rarely cause penetration injuries.

Therefore, the bullet that Zhang Rubao fired has caused great damage to the internal organs of the head of the Qi family. In addition to the medical conditions of this era, it can be said that Zhang Rubao is already sure that the head of the Qi family will definitely enter the gates of hell.

After Zhang Rubao fired his pistol, he turned around and ran without hesitation. The guards who had just stepped forward to stop Zhang Rubao were startled by the loud sound of the pistol. When they found that Master Qi behind them was already in a pool of blood, they wanted to find the assassin, but they found that the assassin who assassinated Master Qi had run away without a trace.

The head of the Qi family was not dead for a moment. He was very unwilling to accept it because he didn't know who was going to assassinate him. Because the head of the Qi family didn't know at all, Wang Mi of the Qi family had concealed him and hired assassination to assassinate Wu Shigong. Even no one told him the news of Wu Shigong being assassinated.

So when the head of the Qi family took his last breath, he still opened his eyes wide. He was indeed a little nervous to die.

Zhang Rubao led the members of the operation team to retreat and the retreat was astonishingly smooth, and there was no obstacle at all. Because there had been no such vicious incident of assassination in broad daylight in Yangzhou City for a long time, both the various yamen in Yangzhou City and the guards of the Qi family were at a loss about how to deal with this situation.

When they finally remembered that they wanted to close the Yangzhou city gate and search for assassins in Yangzhou city, Zhang Rubao had already left Yangzhou city with the members of the action team and left.

There were 20 members of the action team who were brought to Yangzhou City this time. However, except for Zhang Rubao's assassination mission, some of the other team members were prepared to make up for the second assassination when Zhang Rubao failed; some wanted to cover Zhang Rubao's escape. Even Zhang Rubao arranged three team members on the edge of a remote city wall in Yangzhou, preparing to climb from the city wall to outside the city if the Yangzhou city gate was closed. However, Zhang Rubao did not use all the follow-up methods.

The news that the head of the Qi family was assassinated caused a sensation in Yangzhou City. The Qi family immediately offered a reward of 5,000 taels of silver to investigate the murderer. Other salt merchants also speculated about the reason for the assassination of the Qi family.

Of course, among the people in Yangzhou City, the origin of the assassin who assassinated the head of the Qi family was also spread, and the most widely spread was the pink news that was jealous for women.

But these rumors were immediately calmed down seven or eight days later. Because everyone knew immediately who assassinated the head of the Qi family. Because at this time, big news came from Henan that shocked the entire Yangzhou salt business community.
