Chapter 738: Shanxi (6)
The powerful explosion blew up the courtyard in front of the main gate of the Fan family's compound, and the bodyguards who were killed and injured by the battle everywhere fell into the courtyard and screamed loudly. Fan Sanba was hit by a sharp sawdust, almost piercing his shoulder, and he kept rolling and howling there in pain.
Although Fan Yongdou and several big shopkeepers of the Fan family hid in the house, they were still dizzy by this earth-shattering loud noise, and they looked at the two huge wooden doors of Fan's mansion, which had been shattered, and they were immediately shocked.
"Don't mess around, everyone, quickly block the gate and don't let the thieves in......"
Fan Yongdou rushed out of the house, loudly commanding the courtyard and the family Ding Qingzhuang, blocking the gate of the Fan Mansion that was damaged by the explosion. A group of panicked nurses and family members woke up like from a dream, desperately carrying dirt bags, rocks and logs, and rushed over to try to seal the bombed gate again.
"Boom...... Boom ......"
Several more muffled sounds sounded one after another, and the Tiger Squat Cannon, which had already been set up by the Far Eastern Army, opened fire almost simultaneously, and the overwhelming scattered bombs swept away the Fan Mansion and the courtyard that rushed up.
Wang Bo waved his hand behind him, and more than a dozen non-commissioned officers with 40-millimeter grenade launchers fired a round of high-explosive grenades into the anti-armor compound, blowing up the guards gathered in front of the main gate of the Fan Mansion into a wolf howl, throwing away the dirt bags and stones in their hands, and scattering in a hurry.
The sword and shield bearers took the lead in the Fan Mansion compound with their square shields, and behind them were rows of riflemen and arquebusiers. They had just entered the Fan family's compound, and the bodyguards hiding on the roof, holding three-eyed guns, bird guns and crossbows, were shooting frantically at the Far Eastern Army.
But in a panic, they didn't have any chance, and even if they hit, they were blocked by a wooden shield that was nearly a man high. The power of the Ming Dynasty's bird guns and three-eyed guns is very average, facing a square shield covered with thin steel plates. It is impossible to break down at all.
The riflemen and arquebusiers hiding behind the shields, armed with double-barreled shotguns and front-loading arquebuses, launched a fierce attack on the roof of the building in the front yard of the Fan Mansion.
With the continuous influx of the Far Eastern Army into Fanfu. The bodyguards hiding in the courtyard relied on the terrain to resist desperately. However, in the face of the overwhelming bullets, as well as the ferocious attacks of 40-millimeter grenade launchers and grenades, the resistance of the bodyguards in the compound became weaker and weaker, and finally they simply threw away their weapons and surrendered.
The whole battle ended in less than half an hour, and the Far Eastern Jin swept away all resistance in the mansion and completely occupied the Fan Mansion compound. The people of the Fan clan in the Fan family's compound were also arrested one by one and taken to the front yard to kneel full.
After a careful search in the compound, Fan Yongdou and Fan Sanba, as well as Fan's daughters, were also found in a dark room. Caught in the front yard. At this time, the front yard was already in chaos, the cries of women and children were continuous, and the rest of the tribesmen were also terrified.
Fan Yongdou, who was trembling all over, was dragged over, he carefully looked at the group of thieves opposite with the torch, his cloudy eyes flashed, and he instantly saw that the tall thief at the head was the leader of this group of thieves.
He took a deep breath. smiled at Li Ming and said: "I don't know what kind of hero the king is, if the king is just seeking wealth." The property of our Fan family is at the mercy of the king, and I only ask the king to be gracious and let go of my Fan family, and my Fan family will definitely be remembered in the five, and there will be heavy gratitude in the future. ”
Li Ming looked at the old man in front of him and sneered, "Fan Yongdou." You are a man of the Han family, but you are fornicating with the East, willing to be a traitor, and providing material information for the Tartars, today. Your retribution has arrived......"
Fan Yongdou listened to Li Ming's words and was stunned for a moment. He didn't react for a while, thieves are just robbing money on weekdays, how did he get such a show today, and he has something to do with his fornication.
Wang Bo next to him also scolded loudly: "Just because of you damned profiteers, how many brothers in Liaozhen died at the hands of the Tartars back then." Fan Yongdou, you big traitor, today next year will be your sacrifice day. ”
Fan Yongdou's cloudy eyes suddenly widened. Wang Bo's thick Liaodong accent made him faintly feel something, it seems that today's Fan Mansion is afraid that there will be less luck.
He hurriedly hissed and shouted loudly: "King Kaien, although my Fan family has business dealings with Dongyu, but the smuggling of slaves is not limited to my Fan family, Shaanxi Sanbian, Xuanda Sanbian, Jizhen, Liao Town, all the side forts are heavily gathered, if there is no one to help, how can my Fan family export commercial goods."
The civil officials and military generals of the nine sides, as well as the king of Jin, the king of Dai and the king of the valley, who are not slaves, my Fan family has been in business for generations, just seeking wealth, the king...... I, Fan Yongdou, am willing to die and apologize, and the Fan family is also willing to give all my wealth, I only ask the king to let go of my Fan family's wives and children, and the king ......"
Li Ming ignored Fan Yongdou's roar, he waved his hand, and asked several soldiers to drag Fan Yongdou down, and then turned to Wang Bo behind him and said: "Hurry up and raid the house, these rich families have some means to hide their property, let the soldiers not let go of every corner, give me a careful search, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must scavenge Fan's family wealth, even if it is a grain or a tael of silver, you are not allowed to leave it for me." You have to keep an eye on me, this is the life-saving money and food for the victims of the disaster in Shanxi, no matter who it is, as long as you dare to stretch out your claws, don't blame me for being rude. ”
Wang Bo thought for a while and said, "Commander, these people from the Fan Mansion ......"
Li Ming thought for a while, then took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You can do it yourself......
Wang Bo hurriedly shouted excitedly: "Please rest assured, commander, to ensure the completion of the task!" ”
Li Ming looked at Wang Bo's rushing back, and then at the Fan clan people kneeling in the front yard, among which there were many female dependents and children. He was suddenly a little tired, and an inexplicable feeling of unbearability rose in his heart. But when he thought of what that guy told him yesterday, Li Ming felt a surge of blood surging over his head.
He turned his head away from the people in the courtyard, and pretended not to hear their cries. Since he arrived in Daming, he has watched the victims everywhere waiting to be fed, and people are dying every moment, but these traitors and Jin merchants are not rich in clothes and food every day, and they live an extremely luxurious life.
The gentry, bureaucrats, wealthy merchants and landlords in all parts of the Ming Dynasty would rather rot the grain stored at home than take out the grain to help the victims, but raised the price of grain to sky-high prices to make huge profits, they hoped that these victims would starve to death, and then colluded with the government to annex the land and shops of the victims. Every day they can't eat the leftovers they throw away, how many displaced people can be saved.
"The way of this dog's day......" he scolded fiercely in his heart.
Thinking of this, Li Ming's mood became more and more depressed. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he beckoned to the two special combat team members next to him, and then turned around and left the Fan Mansion compound. (To be continued......)
