Chapter 1133: The Unbearable Sight (2)
Su Tiancheng led the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion to Haiyan County, and there happened to be a sergeant under Liu Zeqing, who collected taxes in the villages and towns, and the two sides soon fought again, the result was self-evident, Liu Zeqing's sergeants, after learning that the Jiangning battalion took the initiative to attack, instinctively chose to escape, ignoring the looted wealth and women, and ran away, because the military uniforms of the two sides were the same, this situation is still very interesting.
A village and town outside Haiyan County.
Su Tiancheng accompanied Fan Jingwen and the others, walking slowly, the withering scene in front of him was heart-wrenching, in the entire village and town, there was no cooking smoke, and the people who could see it had a numb and indifferent look on their faces, because the military uniforms of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion were exactly the same, but the momentum was different.
When Fan Jingwen was about to speak, a white-bearded old man suddenly rushed out of the courtyard and began to scold Su Tiancheng and the others.
"You guys have been in the village for so long, you have been robbing all the food, and the women in the village have been insulted by you, what else do you want to do, do you want to kill all the people in the village, you are comfortable......"
The old man was well-dressed, and he seemed to be a rich family in the village, but his face was pale and his eyes were blood-red, since he dared to rush to Su Tiancheng and others to scold, he probably didn't want to live.
The old man's scolding caused a chain reaction, and soon a young woman also came out, with scissors in her hand, her clothes were a little sluggish, the woman's face was full of despair and anger, she was holding scissors, and a pair of eyes searched among the passing sergeants, but she didn't say anything.
Some ordinary people also came out, with the same indifferent expressions on their faces, silently looking at the passing sergeants.
Su Tiancheng already understood, it should be said that all this was a good thing done by Liu Zeqing's sergeants, and he called He Renlong.
"He Renlong. You go to do two things immediately, the first thing is that the Jiangning battalion was the first to enter the village and town, and the sergeants who fought with Liu Zeqing's men all turned back and came to the village. Let the people identify, if anyone dares to harass the people, leave it to the people here to deal with, and the second thing is to send elite sergeants to capture the fleeing bandits, even if they run to the ends of the earth, they must be caught by me and caught here. Let the people identify ......"
Fan Jingwen and the others on the side did not speak with a calm face, of course they understood what all this meant.
After He Renlong quickly implemented the task, Su Tiancheng spoke to Qu Qingze beside him.
"Master Qu, you are still responsible for completing the aftermath, and take out some of the money and food to help the people here. It seems that Liu Zeqing has nothing left, damn. If Lao Tzu catches Liu Zeqing, he will hand him over to the people and see what the people will do to him. ”
The people around them gathered more and more, and they obviously found that the army that came this time was completely different from the army in front. This army did not enter the house or the courtyard, and marched with their heads bowed, without looking at the people around them, and without any intention of collecting food. The common people instinctively felt that this army was different. I'm afraid it's the Jiangning camp that was rumored a few days ago, the Jiangning camp that loves the people.
Qu Qingze took the soldiers of the law enforcement battalion and began to contact the people, preparing to relieve the people, but this work is very difficult, the people don't believe it at all, the damage they have received is too great, most of them are gathered around Su Tiancheng and others, they all heard what Su Tiancheng said just now, they want to see the actual action.
Su Tiancheng didn't plan to leave immediately, and Fan Jingwen and the others didn't speak, standing beside Su Tiancheng.
An hour passed, and He Renlong came back in a hurry, followed by a thousand soldiers and more than two hundred prisoners, although the military uniforms of these prisoners were the same as those of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, but the temperament on their faces was completely different.
Su Tiancheng first demanded that all the soldiers of the 1,000 Jiangning Battalion stand up.
He walked over to the young woman who had been standing with scissors in hand.
"This girl, see if there is anyone you are looking for here, don't be afraid, if you find it, just say, this official will call the shots for you."
The young woman didn't speak, walked over slowly, and began to scan with her eyes.
After a quarter of an hour, the woman shook her head, indicating that there was no one she was looking for among the thousand.
Su Tiancheng waved his hand.
"He Renlong, bring those bandits up."
Soon, more than 200 people were escorted up, and several of them, after seeing the young girl, instinctively retreated, this scene was seen by Su Tiancheng and Fan Wencheng and others, but everyone did not speak.
The young girl saw the retreating men, howled, and rushed forward with scissors.
These people had long been tied up, unable to struggle at all, and the young girl took the scissors and stabbed them fiercely, and screams began to appear.
Su Tiancheng didn't have the slightest expression on his face, looking at all this.
After all, the young girl's strength was not enough, and after a few stabs, she began to cry bitterly, and the next girl's movements, no one expected, she turned the scissors and pierced her heart......
Su Tiancheng pointed to the few prisoners who were injured by the explosion and spoke to He Renlong.
"Take care of this girl, these funerals, you have to find this girl's family, see what difficulties her family has, and give some help."
After saying this, Su Tiancheng turned around and spoke to the people around him.
"Folks, this is the bandit we have caught, you can come and identify it, see who has entered your house, even if you point it out, and among the thousand sergeants, if anyone harasses you, you also point it out, and the officer will definitely make the decision for you......"
The common people began to stir, and many people rushed up, biting and beating at the captives, venting their anger in their hearts.
The old man who yelled at Su Tiancheng and the others at the beginning was not very far away from Su Tiancheng, he saw all the situations, he didn't make a move, and even showed a rare calmness.
But at this time, the old man moved, and he tried to get close to Su Tiancheng.
When he was still five meters away from Su Tiancheng, the old man suddenly knelt in front of Su Tiancheng.
"Lord Qingtian, you must be the master for us, these bandits, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, many people in the village have fled, and everyone can't survive......"
The people who were fighting the captives saw this scene, turned around and followed the old man, knelt in front of Su Tiancheng, and wailed for a while.
Su Tiancheng stepped forward, thinking about helping the old man, and He Renlong on the side also hurriedly helped, but the old man was very stubborn and unwilling to get up, he was waiting for Su Tiancheng's statement.
Su Tiancheng sighed, gave up helping the old man up, and spoke to the people kneeling in front of him.
"Fellow villagers, what happened to you, the official knows the way, the official will definitely seek justice for you, these people who were caught by us are not the army of the imperial court, they are out-and-out bandits, the official is now leading the soldiers, to crusade against these bandits, the official promised to the villagers, will completely exterminate this gang of bandits, this is Lord Qu, this official has asked Lord Qu, responsible for the relief of the villagers, you have encountered robbery, life difficulties, the official will not stand idly by, and please help Lord Qu, Settle your life down as soon as possible......"
The common people slowly stopped crying, they still knelt, they believed the words of the lord in front of them, facts speak louder than words, none of the sergeants led by this lord did anything wrong, and this lord caught the bandits who were making trouble in the village and dealt with them in front of them.
After Su Tiancheng finished speaking, he stepped forward again and helped the old man up.
"Old man, the village is in trouble, the official is also very uncomfortable, these bandits, the official has been arrested, what bad things have they done, the people need to say it, the official needs to have a basis to deal with these people, the official can't kill people indiscriminately, and ask the old man to assist Lord Qu to testify against the evil deeds of these bandits, the official has said, he must be the master of the villagers."
The old man shuddered and spoke.
"The kindness of adults, the grass people will never forget for the rest of their lives, and the grass people will definitely pray for the adults."
Su Tiancheng shook his head slightly.
"Old man, these things don't have to be done, let the villagers live a good life, is the wish of the official, the old man seems to be a knowledgeable person in the village, and his words have weight, please tell many villagers, including the nearby villagers, Jiangning Ying has entered Jiaxing Mansion, and will never allow such a scene to appear again, please don't have to flee, feel at ease at home, the official will arrange a special person to solve the problem of the villagers' difficult lives, until the autumn harvest season, the official does what he says."
When he walked forward again, Fan Jingwen's face turned pale and he sighed heavily.
Su Tiancheng spoke to Fan Jingwen.
"Lord Fan, you will be able to enter Haiyan County soon, and then please take a look, what is the attitude of the government, I don't believe it, there have been so many losses here, and the people have been forced to have no way to live, doesn't the government know all this, these soldiers of Liu Zeqing, what they do is worse than the bandits, the bandits still know the rules of the road, know what they can do and what they can't do, presumably what Liu Zeqing did was not what he meant alone."
After a slight pause, Su Tiancheng spoke again.
"Lord Fan, what I hate most in my life is to attack innocent people, I have the ability to do it against me, Liu Zeqing's gang of bandit sergeants, must be responsible for their own actions, I once said, in fact, Hangzhou, Huzhou and other places, this is also the case, but adults pass by, I don't see these, I'm afraid I don't care about these, I want to say more bluntly, the court and the emperor probably don't care about these things, since they don't care, then I will care, I have promised the people, Anyone involved in this matter, no matter what high position they hold, I will pursue it to the end.
