Chapter 840: Extinction of Humanity
Under the clouds and snowfall, riots are taking place in the city of Tokyo. Not only were there people chasing and fleeing in the area of Songying Lane in the southwest of the city, but similar things had happened in the northwest corner and due south, and many thieves were flying out of the way into the streets, and then jumping into the ditches that were one person high, and burrowing into the entrances of the black rumbling waterways.
is the so-called cunning rabbit three caves, and these evil troublefree cave bandits are much more cunning than rabbits, just the hiding place, they have set up no less than four or five places in the capital. Among them, there are not only individual inconspicuous courtyards, but also those who simply get the entire alley and live together.
Originally, they made these preparations in order to take care of each other when things happened, and at the same time to facilitate them to do some unseemly things. But now, when the three yamen of the Criminal Department, Kaifeng Mansion and the Sub-district Division joined forces to handle the case and arrest them, these people did not dare to resist fiercely, so they could only flee in a hurry.
In the final analysis, these people are just some guts bandits, although they do a lot of evil on weekdays, and there are many innocent lives who die in their hands, but they really think too much about letting them confront the officers and soldiers with open swords and guns, and when they are rounded up by a large number of officers and soldiers, their first reaction is to seize the road and flee.
However, this time their choice was quite correct, because this time the officers and soldiers were prepared, and even prepared a large number of bows and arrows, once they really fought hard, some of them could certainly fight their way out, but the casualties must be several times that of the current one, and it is impossible for more than half of them to jump into the waterway.
And when they fled underground, the pursuit of the officers and soldiers ceased, leaving only a few men to guard on the spot in case they came back with a rifle. It's just that this movement not only made the residents near these nests panic, but also finally attracted the forbidden soldiers and horses who patrolled the capital to investigate and investigate.
Zhao Kangming was confronted with a question at this moment: "We have never heard of any problems with the people here, and we have not heard of the street division saying that the prisoner will be arrested today!" This is Bianjing City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how can you wait for the chaos to come. Take them all down for me! ”
As this official became quite aggressive, the soldiers of the forbidden army behind him immediately pressed forward, and the weapons in their hands were already raised high, ready to attack at any time. This made the soldiers of the street division beat a drum in their hearts, there were only a dozen of them here, and the other brothers were all searching in the alley, but they couldn't handle it.
However, Zhao Kangming still maintained his composure, and immediately showed his token: "Zhao Kangming, the official street secretary, which of you dares to be presumptuous?" When will my street division arrest the bandits with the consent of your forbidden army to patrol the city? And what do you think about you saying that you want us to release people and bring us to justice? Isn't it to shield the prisoners here? ”
The officials on the opposite side suddenly felt weak in their hearts, and their momentum was immediately counterpressed. really let Zhao Kangming say it, he rushed to intervene at this time just to disrupt the rhythm of taking people here. The reason why these bandits in Sanssouci Cave can live here with peace of mind but are not investigated by the government is because they have already opened up these security forces on the ground, or bribed them with money, or intimidated them through their backers.
However, this has also caused them to lose their vigilance. If they do those tricks outside, they may be cautious and dare not show any flaws. But as soon as they returned to their lodgings after the incident, they were almost all relaxed, after all, there had been nothing for many years, and who would be useless every day?
But sometimes things happen when people are not alert. These people never dreamed that when they abducted women and children by various means and stole property in various tiles and crowded places, their whereabouts would be targeted by Sun Tu's eyes. Moreover, these people did not mean to take people on the spot and get the stolen goods from everyone, but they were patient, and followed them through the streets and alleys, and through half of Tokyo, until they confirmed their foothold and nests in the city.
Because Sun Tu knew very well that if he wanted to catch all these ditch rats and cure them completely, he had to find all their whereabouts, and then attack everywhere at the same time to kill them by surprise.
To this end, he made many arrangements, and also said that the relevant people of the three yamen were mobilized, so that today's joint action was born, and in one fell swoop, he destroyed all the nests in the city of Sanssouci Cave, and while holding the small half-human prisoners, he drove most of the people into the underground waterway.
It's just that the scene in front of him still seems to be a little beyond Sun Tu's expectations, he didn't expect that these guys' protective umbrellas would be so blatant, and they would dare to come out and reverse black and white at this time. Zhao Kangming was also stunned at the time, but at this moment, he had already settled down and completely suppressed the other party in terms of momentum.
was asked by him like this, and the other party was a little panicked, so he could only say inwardly: "It's just nonsense, how could this official and court official do such a thing that violates the law and discipline?" I'm just trying to prevent anyone from disturbing the peace of the capital. Besides, you say that there are all prisoners here, but do you have any proof? ”
"Naturally, there will be credentials, and the people under this official are searching it, if you are suspicious, you can go in with me to see what is clear." Zhao Kangming immediately replied. And just as he finished speaking, he saw a subordinate hurrying over. The look of the person who came was extremely ugly, as if he had found something terrible inside, and even the more forbidden troops around him were directly ignored by him, and as soon as he saw Zhao Kangming, he hurriedly reported: "Si Cheng, we found in one of the courtyards, and found a lot of corpses......
"What?" Zhao Kangming and the forbidden army official both changed color at the same time and exclaimed, neither of them expected such a discovery. The subordinate swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said with difficulty: "The corpses are all dug up from the ground, and they look dead not long ago, and they are ......" Speaking of this, he looked different again, and felt quite embarrassed.
Zhao Kangming couldn't care about listening to his report anymore, waved his hand and asked a few soldiers to guard before and after the entrance of the waterway, and hurried to the alley. The forbidden soldiers hesitated for a moment, and the official followed the alley, but their expressions became a little strange.
A few people soon came to a house in the back of the alley, where there were already several street guards inside and outside the door, all of them with solemn faces, and several of them were trembling slightly, obviously caused by a great shock to their hearts.
And the subordinate who came to report the news whispered: "This courtyard is the last one we entered." At that time, I felt strange, people had already run out of other courtyards, and there was no one here, and we were on guard, and a few more brothers came over the wall and hit the door. It turned out to be empty, and there was not half a human figure. After searching around, I found that the mud floor in the backyard was a little abnormal, and it looked like it had just been turned over. So some brothers tried to dig and check, and the result was ......"
Needless to say, for they had come to the backyard, and the excavated pit was fully displayed in front of everyone.
Although Zhao Kangming thought that he had some insight and had dealt with some murder cases in the capital, he was still shocked when he suddenly saw the scene in this pit. I saw six corpses lying in the pit, which had been dead for a while and had been buried in the earth, so they had begun to rot and rot, and maggots kept popping up on the corpses.
Of course, this is not too much for him to accept, what really makes him feel cold and angry is that these corpses are all children! Although they have begun to corrupt and can't see their appearance clearly, just looking at their figures, it can be inferred that they are only six or seven years old, which is the same age as his second son Zhao Kangming!
This makes people unable to deal with it calmly, the innocent dead, or the most innocent child was hastily buried in this yard after being killed, those thieves in the Sanssouci Cave are more inhumane than he thought, and they are more damned!
After being silent for a moment, Zhao Kangming's face was as pale as everyone else, and then he looked at the leader of the forbidden army who was also discolored next to him: "I don't know if you still think they are innocent?" ”
"I'm ......" the one opened his mouth a little dazedly, but couldn't say anything. How so? Who are the people living in this alley, and why do they dare to be so lawless in the city of Tokyo?
Zhao Kangming didn't pay attention to him at all, and immediately turned around and ordered: "Show me that everyone is dead, but if anyone dares to resist and escape, they will be killed!" And everything in this alley must be searched carefully, even if an innocent person can be rescued, it is good! ”
"Whoa!" All the soldiers responded in silence, and then got busy again.
If it were placed in the border area, such a tragic scene would not arouse too many feelings, after all, there are people dying in that place, and it is difficult for adults to protect themselves, let alone children. But this is Bianjing, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and the severity of such a tragedy here is not acceptable to any person with a conscience.
If Zhao Kangming did all this before this, he still had a bigger plan in mind, and he still wanted to use it to deal with some people. After seeing this tragic situation, he has left all these things behind, and only thinks about bringing to justice the criminals who exterminate humanity, no matter what forces they have behind them, he will completely eradicate them!
And those forbidden soldiers were also stunned at this moment, not knowing what to do or what to say for a while.
