The more than 100 people led by the officials performed like frightened birds. I believe that if they were scared, they would scatter birds and beasts. Obviously, these people were not opponents of the Musketeers at all.
The only person who showed some backbone was the young magistrate in a green robe who made generous speeches and scolded Zhang Ning in the face of violence.
But if you think that he is ready to die, it would be wrong. Zhang Ning saw the sword in his hand trembling and his wide pale eyes...
This person is obviously scared.
Raise the gun!Wei Bin shouted, and the twelve rifles were lifted up, and the soldiers' calm movements seemed to be the contempt of the winner for the loser.
More than a hundred people on the opposite side arched their backs and retreated again, which was completely imagined after the gunshots.
The magistrate's right foot raised, and hesitated and put it back in place again, still standing there.
Zhang Ning observed him without saying a word and thought to himself: He originally wanted to retreat, right?
In the end, I still held back. Indeed, when people face violence, they just need to take a step back, and then take a lot of steps back and then surrender.
He was frightened and desperate, and was at a loss for a moment.
For some reason, this stranger touched Zhang Ning's heart...
Perhaps it wasn’t the straight line that touched yourself, but was touched by the feelings in your heart.
Zhang Ning seemed to be able to experience his despair at this moment with empathy, perhaps because he looked similar in age and had also been a civil servant?
Once this civil servant surrendered to the invaders, his reputation and career would almost be over, at least he would think so himself.
So I want to be broken, but I don’t want to be completely clean?He was forced... When he saw others desperate and lost everything, Zhang Ning felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.
Wei Bin turned his head to look at Zhang Ning. As long as he nodded slightly, the ruthless lead balls would take some lives.
It is so powerful that it is not a comb, it is just a tool. In the era of Huangdi, people could only master stone tools and fight.
slow.
Zhang Ning said, raised his hand to stop the soldiers, and then turned over from his horse.
He looked back at both sides of the confrontation and said: The battle has ended... Wei Baihu restrained the soldiers from burning, killing and looting without authorization.
He said lightly again, grabbing one piece of cloth will lose the wealth of ten pieces of cloth in the turmoil, which is not worth it.
yes.Wei Bin responded, and the troops put their guns down one after another.But soon Zhang Ning's actions made everyone brave again, and he was walking towards the opposite side, but the other party's troops had not yet been disarmed.
Adult... Someone wanted to persuade him, but he still stopped.
Lao Xu and other followers hurriedly followed and protected them nervously.The magistrate stared at Zhang Ning with his eyes wide open, holding the hilt of the sword tightly.
Zhang Ning walked up to him, looked down at the sword in his hand and said: Let it go, this thing is just a symbolic thing.
He looked at the officials behind him: Put down our weapons, we will not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
There was a sound of dinging and everyone threw their weapons to the ground.
Old Xu suddenly rushed forward, grabbed the magistrate's wrist with one hand and gently exerted force, and then kicked the magistrate's knee. The magistrate fell to the ground without any stability, and then struggled to get up. He was kicked on the back and fell to the ground again, making his face gray.
The troops rushed up and surrounded everyone at the door.
Soldiers... Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated...
Zhang Ning said: General Zhang, he picked up a few people in official uniforms and tied them up, and escorted them to other city gates, asking the rest of them to surrender, telling them that the county government has been broken and that all officials have been surrendered, so there is no need to resist.
Get order!Zhang Chengzong raised his arm to hold the salute, and then led his troops to arrest people.
The prisoners were escorted to the lobby, asked them to open the prison, and invited the Houtan Lord out to meet in the lobby.All soldiers obey orders, abide by military discipline, and reward them according to their merits.
……
There is a red-backed, sun pattern on the lobby, and four large characters on a plaque are hung high with a mirror. It seems that many government lobbies like to use these four characters to represent integrity and integrity.
Zhang Ning walked up step by step from the door and sat down on the seat. Old Xu and Song Hu and others stood beside him. Some soldiers escorted the captured officials to the hall.
Zhang Ning took a look at the things on the case, including the box of kings, official seals, red pens, etc. Theoretically, these things can be used to issue political decrees in the whole county, but in the end it will be ruled by man.
He was ready to win over the original officials in the county government. These people were industry insiders. Regardless of whether they were trying to save their lives or not, as long as they were able to win them, they could quickly control the local area and start to use the resources of a county.
In full view of everyone, the tied magistrate still looked unyielding, but he no longer verbally verbally.
At this time, a team was walking in, walked straight to the seat, and whispered: Sir, I found the county magistrate's family in the backyard of the county government, and I have sent someone to watch.
After a while, another soldier came in to report that Hou Tanzhu and others were rescued in the county jail and were outside.
Quick, please.
Zhang Ning, who was silent, immediately said enthusiastically.
He then left his seat and walked towards the gate. As soon as he reached the hall, he saw more than a dozen people wearing prison uniforms and hair spreading out from the gate.
I smelled a foul smell from afar. I don’t know how long it took for them to wash up, and I guess they had never washed their faces after being caught.
The current man with a wide face was covered with scars. Zhang Ning probably should be Hou Mao. He hurriedly greeted him and said: We came too late, so we made Lord Hou suffer!
Without saying a word, the man fell to the ground first and kowtowed immediately, and the person behind him hurriedly fell in the lobby.
The man said: Mr. Hou will never forget the kindness of His Highness the Third Prince today. In the future, as long as His Highness speaks, I will never say anything to the sea of fire at the foot of the mountain!
The people behind them all said excitedly: We all thought there was no life, just to have fun, but unexpectedly, someone would be saved by being locked in prison...
It's easy to say.
Zhang Ning hurriedly supported Hou Mao, regardless of how smelly he was on his body, and helped him up affectionately and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "The family doesn't speak two families. The master of Hou Tan is my old minister. He has followed him for more than 20 years. How can I bear to give up on it?"Someone came, and found some doctors to heal the wounds of Hou Tanzhu and others... Master Hou Tanzhu asked for a while to sit down, and I told someone to find a few rooms to get some food.
Hou Mao limped over, turned to look at the trembling officials, and snorted. Someone behind him immediately spat at the officials, and one of them cursed: Dog officials are gone!
At this time, Hou Mao asked: Did Your Highness catch the Jinyiwei?
Zhang Ning turned around and replied: I didn’t see you.
Hou Mao said: There are at least two Jinyiwei lieutenants in Shimen County. They torture and force us to confess almost every day. Although the brothers gritted their teeth and said nothing, it seems that they know a lot and they have to find a way to hunt them down and kill them to avoid future troubles.
Zhang Ning thought to himself: This Hou Tanzhu has been arrested for more than half a month and has been tortured every day. I haven’t said anything yet?
He estimated that Hou Tanzhu and his group of people had almost shaken their background, but he didn't plan to expose it...
The Jinyiwei is specialized in this, and his methods are great. Zhang Ning feels that if he is caught, he may have to confess. No wonder the Lord Hou Tanzhu. He can't ask everyone to be a party member who refuses to obey until his death, right?
After thinking about it, Zhang Ning turned his eyes to the officials, looked at the green-robed magistrate, and cared about him. He looked at the old man with green-robed goatee next to him, and pointed at him and said: You, come out and answer.
The goat beard hurriedly walked out and knelt down on the ground. Before he could ask him, he hurriedly said: The court hawks are extremely fierce, we are all forced!My colleagues were dedicated to the people and didn't want to provoke noble education, but they didn't dare to disobey the emperor, so they offended the king and asked the king to let him go... Seeing that defending the city was not good, the hawks ran away early. The whole family of officials in the county were all in the city, so they dared not run away, so they had to suffer for their own sake...
A prisoner immediately stood up: The old turtleman named Wang is a history of the county government, and is a bird of a feather with the hawks in the court. He is very diligent in deceiving his superiors and concealing his subordinates!Your Highness, don’t believe what he said. Now that we have fallen into our hands, we will give in and pick up the nice things. You can do anything you want after you turn your body in your hands!
Zhang Ning didn't speak, and Hou Maoze immediately shouted: Old Fan sits down, is there any part of your conversation here?Your Highness has his own right to deal with it.
There are many houses behind the county government office. I will take Hou Tanzhu and others in, wash and rest first, and check the injuries.Zhang Ning ordered quietly.
After the prisoner left the lobby, he said kindly to the kneeling old man in green robe: There are rules for being an official, and we have our rules.Although Wang Dianshi calls me the king, we are not the mountain bandits who robbed the wealthy families and robbed the houses. Why should we make a grudge against each other?
Big...Grandman is wise.Wang Dianshi bowed with admiration.
Zhang Ning said calmly: You are Dianshi... It seems that his Buzi should be the county magistrate?The gentleman next to him may be the master.What kind of officials are you before? Now, I will leave a few officials behind later to take out the roster files, warehouse accounts, etc. of the county government office to help you do something. Others can go home first to report their safety.This will also restore order in the city as soon as possible and allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Isn’t that great good?
The officials looked at each other and started to discuss quietly.
Wang Dianshi hurriedly turned around and advised his colleagues: People's livelihood is the most important thing. How can you bear to watch the urban and rural areas fall into chaos and the people are displaced?The most important thing at the moment is to appease the people and guard against thieves and take the opportunity to make trouble.
The officials who were originally trembling gradually became active and nodded seriously, saying, "The rise and chaos are all the suffering of the people, how can I bear it?"
Lord Li said, Anmin is the only thing he has to do...
Hahaha... Suddenly the young magistrate raised his head and laughed.The officials frowned and looked at him wondering.
Zhang Ning hurriedly said: "Please" the magistrate to the hall first... Don't worry, I will advise the magistrate to let him understand as soon as possible.
The only person who showed some backbone was the young magistrate in a green robe who made generous speeches and scolded Zhang Ning in the face of violence.
But if you think that he is ready to die, it would be wrong. Zhang Ning saw the sword in his hand trembling and his wide pale eyes...
