Chapter 1836: Recruitment Certificate Chapter 1836: Recruitment Certificate Editor: Henyee Translations The bandits couldn’t resist ridiculing the Prefect Lord, deriding him as a mere bookwormaEUR”pedantic, absurd, and ignorant.

They wondered if he had only ascended to his position this year.

While they roamed the mountains, the Prefect Lord was likely burning the midnight oil, buried in his books!

To think he had the audacity to issue such proclamations to themaEUR”it must have been a strain for him to fill a piece of paper with such nonsense.

They yearned to descend the mountain immediately and teach that reckless Prefect Lord a lesson, to show him the boundaries of his speech.

What a load of rubbish, this so-called “recruitment”!

They felt insulted by such words!

If they didn’t know that the Prefect Lord had a handful of constables and subordinates skilled in martial arts, if they weren’t aware of their grasp of the Imperial Court’s constraints, they wouldn’t have hesitated to raid Anze Province, let alone venture into the government office to stir up trouble.

As they gathered, they couldn’t resist mocking and jesting at the purported documents.

“Lord Shao must have lost his mind!” “These scholarly types are all the sameaEUR”lost in their books!” “Heh, he’s quite confident!

Let’s see how that turns out for him!” “This time, we’re not just after food.

We’re going to give him a lesson he won’t forget, so he learns not to overstep!” “aEUR|” In the end, the bandits reached a unanimous decisionaEUR”they would join forces in this endeavor.

Failure was not an option; they were determined to deliver a resounding blow to that pedantic Prefect Lord with their actions!

As luck would have it, they had learned that the next shipment of grain would be making its way back to Anze Province City from Liangshan Town in three days’ time.

Liangshan Town, situated to the north of Anze Province, lay a hundred miles away from the city.

En route, they would pass through a vast rock canyon spanning over ten miles.

The canyon, deep and lengthy, boasted towering cliffs on either side and treacherous peaks.

Remarkably, this colossal rock formation was situated not far from Liuhe Fort.

It seemed like the perfect gathering point for their plans.

The second-in-command of the Tiger Head Tribe spoke with icy resolve, “I’ll lead the charge.

Those constables are going to meet their end!” After half a year of recuperation, his injuries had finally healed.

But this matter had left him deeply humiliated!

It felt like a stain on his honor, a wound that refused to heal.

He couldn’t bear the thought of facing his comrades with his head held low.

Revenge was now imperative.

Only by avenging his past humiliation could he regain his dignity.

Moreover, he harbored a deep-seated hatred for the Prefect Lord.

Despite his outward appearance of recovery, he knew his body’s foundation remained compromised.

His strength and agility were but shadows of their former selves.

If it came to a fight, his endurance would pale in comparison to what it once was.

The momentary lapse in judgment had led to grave consequencesaEUR”how could he not feel enraged?

The fourth-in-command of the Min Family Tribe chuckled softly, “I have no objections to you leading the charge, but let’s not rush to execute the leaders.

I prefer to capture them alive, bring them back to our mountain stronghold, and let you unleash your fury upon them.” Second-in-Command Cao looked at him disapprovingly.

The fourth-in-command of the Min Family Tribe grinned, “Our fourth brother has taken a liking to that horse and wishes to pressure Lord Shao into exchanging it for another!

Second Brother Cao, I’d appreciate your assistance in this matter.” In the Min Family Tribe, the first and third heads bore the surname Min, while the second-in-command and fourth-in-command adopted the surname Min as well, making all four leaders Min Family Heads.

Second-in-Command Cao frowned reluctantly, “Exchange hostages?

I can’t guarantee their survival!”
