Chapter Seventy-Six: Eliminate Harm for the People!
The thieves of the wolf village in Dongbaishan were bold, and broke into the city of Yuezhou at night, looted several people's houses, and about more than a dozen large households suffered disasters, and the current Yuezhou governor Cheng Jingzong took the people of the yamen and the city defense camp that night, and fought hard to drive the thieves out.
On the second day, the governor of Yuezhou went to the affected households to inquire about the situation, and after asking three or four families, he finally arrived at the Lin family in Xingwenfang.
This time, the Lin family is the one with the biggest loss, forty or fifty members of the family were killed, many servants also died, and more importantly, the children of the Lin family, there were also thirty or forty people who died at the hands of those bandits, and about a hundred were injured.
By the afternoon of the next day, hundreds of coffins had been placed in the courtyard of the Lin family, and the main hall could not be placed, so they were placed outside the door, and the white flags were already hung outside the house, which was quite desolate.
Lin Sizheng, the patriarch of the Lin family, after this incident, was also frightened, lying on the bed and getting seriously ill, after Cheng Zhizhou heard the news, he hurriedly rushed to Lin Sizheng's bed to condole, Lord Zhizhou's face was full of shame, and he sighed at Lin Sizheng on the hospital bed: "Master Lin, this time it was the time when the West City Gate changed guards, there were some gaps, I don't know who leaked it to those thieves, so that they broke in, this is a dereliction of duty, ashamed of the parents and villagers in Yuezhou......"
Although Lin Sizheng was not injured, but many Lin family members died in front of his eyes last night, the old man was old, and he was a little depressed at this time, after hearing Cheng Jingzong's words, he looked up at Cheng Zhizhou from the capital, and his voice was weak.
"Dare to ask Cheng Zhizhou, my Lin family is in the south of the city, these thieves entered the city through the West City Gate, why did they come straight to Xingwenfang?"
"Probably because of the wealth near Xingwenfang."
Cheng Jingzong's face was full of seriousness, and he said: "These thieves are treacherous, most of them have already found out which neighborhood in Yuezhou City is rich in advance, so after entering the city, they went straight to the vicinity of Xingwenfang. ”
"The old gentleman doesn't know that this time it is not only the Lin family that is affected, nor is it just Xingwenfang."
Speaking of this, he glanced up at Lin Sizheng and said softly: "Fortunately, the old man is safe and sound, which is a great luck in misfortune, but I don't know Lin Shilang's ......."
After the thieves retreated last night, Guo Xing, the commander of Shanyin County, came to the scene as soon as possible to ask about the situation of the Lin family, but now the officials of the entire Yuezhou are dissatisfied with this new Zhizhou, so until now, no one has communicated with Cheng Jingzong about the situation of the Lin family.
He didn't know what the situation of the Lin family was last night.
I don't know...... That Lin Shilang, is he dead?
"Dead."
Lin Sizheng was extremely disgusted with this Zhizhou in his heart, but he couldn't attack on the spot, so he could only snort: "Qilang was shot to death by that group of thieves last night, this time, is Cheng Zhizhou satisfied?" ”
Cheng Jingzong's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he immediately stood up from the side of the bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Is this true? ”
Lin Sizheng closed his eyes and stopped talking to Cheng Jingzong.
Cheng Zhizhou took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "Lin Shilang is the pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the cultural context of Yuezhou, how can he die in the hands of those thieves?" ”
"These thieves are really heinous!"
Cheng Zhizhou gritted his teeth angrily, and said loudly to Lin Sizheng: "Don't worry, old man, this official has already asked for help from the garrison near Yuezhou, and it won't be long before there will be a garrison to support Yuezhou, and when the time comes, this official will personally lead the team to exterminate those bold thieves!" ”
Lin Si was lying on the bed, closing his eyes and not saying a word, but he was already sneering slightly in his heart.
If Lin Jian really died in the hands of those bandits last night, the Lin family would have fallen into the middle of the road, that is, it would only be a few years, after all, Lin Jian had completely offended the general of Shuo Fang, and he would definitely invite revenge.
After Cheng Zhizhou said a few words arrogantly, he sighed and bowed his head to Lin Sizheng and said: "Old man, Yuan Dagong is Cheng's predecessor and a famous Confucian in the world, I don't know where the coffin stops, Cheng wants to go and put a few pillars of incense on Yuan Dagong to express his heart." ”
He was also a smart man, and he wouldn't believe that Lin Jian died like this before he saw Lin Jian's corpse.
"You don't have to put on incense."
A low voice came, but it was not Lin Si on the bed who was talking, Cheng Jingzong's heart sank, and when he looked back, he saw a middle-aged man with a long figure, walking in, this middle-aged man was expressionless, and said coldly: "Just kowtow." ”
Cheng Jingzong's heart was shocked, but after all, he had seen the world, so he quickly reacted, breathed a long sigh of relief, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.
"It turns out that Yuan Dagong has nothing to do, so he can scare Cheng to death."
"If Yuan Dagong is really harmed by those thieves, Cheng really doesn't know what to do."
Lin Jian didn't have any expression on his face, and only said slowly: "If I die, most of Cheng Zhizhou's dreams will be woken up by laughter." ”
His voice didn't stop, and then he said: "I just heard Cheng Zhizhou say that he asked for reinforcements and a crusade against those evil bandits, yes or no?" ”
"Exactly."
Cheng Jingzong cleaned up his mood, quickly calmed down, and said: "In three days at most, I will be able to send troops to fight against the bandits in Yuezhou, and give an explanation to the people of Yuezhou who died innocently last night." ”
"That's very good."
Lin Jianqiang held back the anger in his heart and said slowly: "I have a son and nephew who was captured by those thieves and needs to be rescued as soon as possible." ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at Cheng Jingzong, and his voice was hoarse: "As for the account between me and Cheng Zhizhou, let's come to Japan for a long time, and we can take our time in the future." ”
Cheng Jingzong asked himself if he had any handle in this matter, and the person who contacted the bandits had nothing to do with him, and even the gap in the West City Gate was because of the normal change of guards, which could not involve him, so he didn't have much fear in his heart.
He bowed his head slightly to Lin Jian: "Yuan Dagong has to forcibly accuse Cheng, and Cheng has nothing to say." ”
"Since Cheng is in Zhizhou, he will do what Zhizhou should do."
What he said he should do is naturally to exterminate those bandits in Dongshan, after all, these people are likely to be buried hidden dangers, especially the leaders of these bandits, they must all be killed to get rid of future troubles.
After saying this, Cheng Jingzong arched his hand at Lin Jian, turned around and left.
The Lord Zhizhou's movements were very fast, and on the second day, the nearby garrison sent 800 people to support, and Cheng Jingzong entangled the Shangcheng Defense Battalion, as well as the officers and soldiers in Yuezhou City, together with about 1,500 people, and marched towards Dongbai Mountain.
Dongbai Mountain is quite steep, the people of Tianwolf Village are based on the mountain, although there are only more than 300 people, but these manpower of the government may not be able to take Tianwolf Village, Cheng Jingzong's real reliance is the 200 Shuo Fang army hidden in the team.
These Shuofang troops have really seen blood in Shuofang, and they are the main force attacking the stockade, whether it is the bandits on the mountain or the local garrisons he invited, compared to the border army like Shuofang, they are much worse.
Dongbai Mountain is only more than 100 miles away from Yuezhou City, and more than 1,000 people have already seen Dongbai Mountain from the morning to the afternoon of the next day.
Cheng Zhizhou personally led the team, he stood at the foot of Dongbai Mountain, looking at the peak in front of him, his eyes were fierce.
"Brothers, it is this thief on the mountain who plundered the people of Yuezhou, and now we will ......."
"Eliminate harm for the people!"
