After Li Zhongyi learned the news, he just smiled faintly, knowing that it was a good thing to be afraid. He didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of gossip, because he had more important counter-espionage work that needed to be deployed.

The time was still too short, and the news of the murder on the Dongcheng side had not yet fully spread to the Xicheng, so Li Zhongyi deliberately slowed down and did not follow closely to search for the Xicheng.

After the unstable elements were eliminated in Dongcheng, Li Zhongyi made a crooked move, and with the help of one of the magic weapons of the Red Army to mobilize the masses, he held a grievance rally.

Li Zhongyi moved people to complain, not to lead them to fight the local tyrants and divide the land, but to find out the handle of the county bureaucrats and officials from the trivial matters of the Zhang family and the Li family.

As the old saying goes, you will leave a mark when you walk through. Judging from Li Zhongyi's experience in the officialdom in his previous life, I dare not say that there are no officials in Hechi County and no bad guys, but there are definitely not a few guys with bad deeds in the county government.

Although Li Zhongyi trained a village soldier who didn't look very scummy, he was still a layman for the ancient war mode and command.

The most important thing to defend the city is to unite as one. Whether it is the gentry or the grass people, as long as they work together, Li Zhongyi believes that there is great hope for holding the river pool.

According to Li Zhongyi's own speculation, once the defenders suffered too much loss and there were loopholes in the defense line, it would be inevitable for the people to go to the city wall.

At that time, it is better to push out those officials who have done many evils as scapegoats in exchange for the support of the people.

At this time, in the backyard of a private house in Xicheng, a group of people were hiding in the firewood room, whispering.

"San Lang, you're too impulsive! We have agreed in advance that we will enter the city to find out the disposition of the defenders, and we will withdraw immediately. You're so bold that you went to the granary and set it on fire. Alas, now the trouble is big, the four gates are closed, and the Shu army is searching for us people all over the city. ”

"Brother Hualong, what are you afraid of? The elite of the second brother will arrive soon, and we only need to endure it for a few days, and we can join forces with the outside and seize the first granary in northern Shu. Hehe, the head work is mine, and no one is allowed to rob it. "San Lang has been trapped in this mansion and can't move, and he is still as arrogant as ever.

This dragon brother rolled his eyes in anger, but he could only retch, and he couldn't do it. No way, who let this kid be the younger brother of his hardcore brother?

At this time, a thin middle-aged man ran over in a panic.

Although Brother Hualong was vomiting in his heart, he was extremely alert, and after hearing the sound of hurried footsteps, he immediately took out the dagger in his arms and quietly hid behind the door.

There was a slight knock on the door of the firewood room, two long and one short, Brother Hualong knew that it was his own people, but still took advantage of the not very bright moonlight, secretly gesticulating to command his entourage to step forward and open the door.

The entourage lightly opened the firewood door, and the middle-aged man stepped into the firewood room in the dark, and before he could see the figure clearly, he gasped and said: "Brother Hualong, the big thing is not good, unite the township soldiers on the side of Dongcheng, and kill hundreds of people in one breath on the street." ”

"Zi ......" Brother Hualong, who was hiding behind the door, gasped, and a shadow immediately appeared in his heart.

According to the information previously obtained, most of the Shu generals are cowardly and incompetent, and only know how to covet pleasure, where did this come from, such a fierce unity of the township soldiers?

"The unity of the township soldiers in this county is subordinate to the inspection school Hechi capture and guard Li Zhongyi...... It was this person who Li ordered to kill on the street. The middle-aged man gasped a few times and forcibly suppressed his great fear, "Those township soldiers are so ruthless, not to mention killing all the people, even the dead have to be shot a few times, it's terrible......"

Seeing that the middle-aged man's legs and stomach were trembling, and his body was shaking for a while, Brother Hualong was secretly frightened, this ruthless character in front of him who had done a lot of bad things and even killed several people, was actually afraid of this Cheng Dù.

Can you imagine how terrifying the murderous scene is?

After all, the middle-aged man is a ruthless character who has seen a lot of the world, he barely calmed down, and analyzed: "Last night was Dongcheng, and tonight I will definitely come to Xicheng to search for arrest." ”

"Afraid of what? Come and slaughter one by one, come and kill a pair of pairs, the master will fight all the way out of the river pool, see who dares to stop me? ”

San Lang preemptively let out the words, Brother Hualong was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and he silently roared in his heart: You fuck, you don't know whether you live or die!

"What do you think we should do?" Brother Hualong directly ignored San Lang's crazy words, and humbly asked the middle-aged man for advice.

"I heard that the Dongcheng side has been dug three feet into the ground by the villagers. Even the bandit "Storm Sand" hiding in the sandwich wall of the cellar was found and killed. The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "The big family that harbored the wind and sand is all dead." ”

Brother Hualong is a person who understands, although the middle-aged man only described the situation of the search and murder in Dongcheng, deep down he probably still wants them to leave his house quickly, so as not to affect his whole family.

But the question is, after leaving here, where can they go?

Just when Brother Hualong hesitated, there was a knock on the door of the family.

The crisp sound of the copper ring on the door of "tom tom tom tom ......" spread a chilling breath of death in the silent night sky.

The middle-aged man went out for a while, and after a short time, he returned again, and said in a trembling voice: "Meng Shuai summoned everyone to the Shuai's mansion to discuss matters. ”

In the middle of the night, Meng Renyi suddenly convened the county officials to discuss the matter, and there was no need to ask too much, there was obviously a conspiracy in it.

However, the streets are full of Shu troops, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, who dares not to go to the Shuai Mansion, I am afraid that the army will be killed immediately, and the whole family will die.

Brother Hualong, who was worried, suddenly had a light in his eyes and immediately had an idea.

Unlike the impulsive and arrogant San Lang, Brother Hualong has traveled south and north, seen a lot of the world, and is also very courageous.

According to the Yan Zòng situation introduced by the middle-aged man, Brother Hualong immediately guessed that there was a clear conspiracy hidden behind Meng Renyi's sudden move.

Hmph, isn't it that they have already suspected the heads of the county officials, and they want to transfer the tiger away from the mountain first, and then enter the house to search?

Brother Hualong concluded that General Shu was only suspicious at present, and it should not have been confirmed which one or those people were the real traitors.

Otherwise, the Shu army would have attacked a long time ago, and the chickens and dogs killed would not be left!

At this time, several people in the firewood room suddenly heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the frightened screams of the women, the terrible screams of the men before they died, the crying of children, the sound of the blades striking, and the shouts of the soldiers, which were intertwined into a sad song of death, which made people shudder.

"Who's living over there?" Brother Hualong forcibly suppressed his fear and asked the middle-aged man in a low voice.

The middle-aged man sighed heavily and said, "It's Xia Bingcao from the county government, this guy is bold and reckless, and he actually secretly colludes with the thieves in the mountains...... Alas......"

Brother Hualong asked the middle-aged man: "No one knew before, he acted so recklessly?" ”

"He is quite cautious in doing things on weekdays, and I also got the news very accidentally, and I didn't want such a secret thing to be found out." The more the middle-aged man thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his face gradually became as pale as paper.

Brother Hualong's heart immediately floated with an ominous premonition, since the soldier surnamed Xia had something to do with the thieves in the mountains, once it was exposed, it would be a catastrophe, and he must have done it very secretly.

When did the Shu army's ability to counter-act become so powerful?

In fact, what Brother Hualong never imagined was that Li Zhongyi was just using the mass line.

The mass line of moving the masses, coming from the masses, and going to the masses is actually very good, as long as it is properly controlled and rewards and punishments are clearly distinguished.

Under the weight of the bloody terror and the huge amount of money, the ordinary county citizens of Dongcheng willingly succumbed.

So, Zhang's family, the Li family's short, the Zhao family's recent strange guests, the Liu family's dinner table yesterday had an extra chicken, and all kinds of trivial information were continuously delivered to Li Zhongyi's table, which has been piled up.

To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi just borrowed the methods used by Mao Taizu in the "Ten Years Movement".

The logic is that under the huge sense of insecurity, if you don't report others, others will protect themselves, and the reward equivalent to 20 yuan of income for several years is likely to reveal all the bad things you have done.

Everyone is in danger, everyone doesn't want to lose their heads and get out of poverty, everyone wants to get out of poverty overnight, so Li Zhongyi's yang plan succeeded!

Because of that Xia Bing Cao, after many years of transfer, he was already a third-class official. According to his authority, Li Zhongyi, the so-called "inspector of the school and the river pool", does not have the power to directly hunt down and kill the county officials.

Therefore, the killing of Xia Bing Cao's family was personally ordered by Meng Renyi, the head of the rear army and the envoy of Zhaowu Jiedu, and Li Zhongyi just provided sufficient evidence.

The military situation is extremely urgent, and in extraordinary times, thunderous means must be used to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, but also to startle the snake.

What Li Zhongyi was most worried about was that Zhou Jun was hiding in the city, and he was very calm, hiding in an official's house without any action.

Therefore, Meng Renyi convened the officials of the county government to discuss the matter, and Li Zhongyi sent people to surround the Xia Mansion and killed all the Xia soldiers and Cao's family.

Since Xia Bingcao has the courage to "gangster", it is a great security hazard, in order to ensure the safety of the river pool to the greatest extent, Li Zhongyi does not mind, his hands are stained with the blood of the Xia family.

According to the criminal law of Shu, banditry is a serious crime of extermination, and the crime is unforgivable, Li Zhongyi just made a move in advance.

Li Zhongyi firmly believes that walking must leave traces. Even if Zhou Jun's meticulous work is very hidden, as long as Meng Renyi's side charges all the officials in the county, he is ready to transfer troops to take advantage of the situation to take down all the slaves of each family and torture them, not afraid that they will not confess.

No way, who called Li Zhongyi's backer, so hard that he scared people to death?

After all, Hechi is only a small county seat, and even if the officials have some connections with Chengdu, they cannot be very powerful people in the DPRK.

In addition to the heads of the four internal officials, the county order, the county official, the chief bookkeeper and the county lieutenant, even if Li Zhongyi put all the county officials on the big hat of bandits or Tongzhou, and killed them, with Meng Renyi's power, he could easily press it down, and it would not cause the slightest ripple.

Hmph, enjoy the taste of special *right, awesome!

In addition, Li Zhongyi's adoption of such violent and bloody methods also hides a deeper conspiracy, that is: forcing the harborers and Zhou Jun to make infighting.

Zhou Jun's meticulous work is at least two or more, so if the harborer wants to kill these two people, he must mobilize the thugs in the family.

In the end, even if Zhou Jun's meticulous work was secretly disposed of, the thugs involved would always confess obediently under heavy torture and coercion and temptation.

Li Zhongyi pondered very thoroughly, and even the thugs who participated were finally killed.

Then, as long as there are multiple male servants in the current family who die suddenly, it is impossible for the harborer to escape from Li Zhongyi's palm.
