Xu Youzhen and Gu Yi, the political envoy of Shandong, Li Chengming, the governor of Shandong, and Zhu Qiaozuo, the envoy of Shandong, received the money and grain raised by the 37 righteous people in Shandong, which can be regarded as keeping their promises.

Emperor Jingtai was also quite lamented when he heard the news, and immediately issued an order: order Gu Yi, the political envoy of Shandong, to build a memorial arch of merit for these righteous people, and write the righteous deeds of these righteous people into the local chronicles and pass them on to future generations.

At the same time, Emperor Jingtai also rewarded these 37 righteous people with brocade and silk, which was rumored to be rumored in various provinces and localities as a model.

At the same time, Liu Juntao also received a message from the Ministry of Intelligence, and learned that although the disaster areas were in full swing to save themselves, there were also many black-hearted businessmen!

Taking advantage of the catastrophe, these black-hearted businessmen continued to hoard grain, raise prices, and snap up some urgently needed medicines in the disaster areas, and then resell them at high prices.

And the most hateful thing is that these black-hearted businessmen actually took advantage of the danger of others to coerce and lure some victims of the disaster and broke their homes, and committed the abduction and trafficking of women and children!

At the same time, in the disaster areas of Yanzhou Mansion and Qingzhou Prefecture, there are also a lot of ruffians who continue to make trouble, and these ruffians are making trouble everywhere, ganging up among the victims, and constantly doing some bullying things, which has aroused great public resentment!

Liu Juntao was furious when he heard the news, and he didn't have a good impression of these black-hearted businessmen and ruffians in his heart, only full of anger.

"These miscellaneous pieces are simply inhumane, they are simply thieves who bring disaster to the country!"

Liu Juntao was furious, and immediately ordered all departments of the Tiance Army, ordered the soldiers and horses of the trapped army stationed in Yanzhou Mansion, and the soldiers and horses of the Yingyang Army stationed in Qingzhou Mansion to immediately dispatch to comprehensively investigate the black-hearted merchants in Yanzhou Mansion and Qingzhou Mansion, and garrison troops in all the disaster settlements to eliminate the ruffians among them!

Yanzhou Mansion, twenty miles east of Shanxian County, is a settlement of Shawan victims.

"Are you fucking tired of being alive? Dare to play tricks with Lao Tzu! ”

A ruffian roared loudly, and behind him there were two dozen loafers, and a group of people were roaring around a family of six.

This family was originally a farming family outside Shanxian County, but when the flood came, the family was gone, and the family followed the wave of victims to run around, and was finally temporarily settled here by the government.

However, when the family was in a state of shock and was thinking about how to live in the future, this group of ruffians set their sights on the fifteen-year-old daughter of the family, and they actually wanted to snatch the little daughter of the family away in broad daylight and in front of many surrounding victims!

The family naturally struggled to resist, and the leading ruffian suddenly jumped like thunder, took out a oxtail knife that had been notched, and wanted to "bleed" the family!

At this moment, a little boy in the family shouted: "This is Yanzhou Mansion, a place where there is a king's law, aren't you afraid of the government's blame!" ”

"Haha!"

The ruffian laughed impudently, pointed around, and said loudly: "This place is already dilapidated, where is the official mansion?" Little cub, I'll tell you! Here, Lao Tzu is the official government! ”

"Who is so rampant!"

The ruffian was stunned for a moment, and looked at the eyes of the people around him, only to see the surrounding crowd parting and flashing out a passage, and a team of Tiance Army soldiers wearing helmets and armor and red uniforms lined up and controlled the place.

A sentry commander stared at the group of ruffians with a frosty face, and said in a cold voice, "Who was shouting here just now? Stand up for Lao Tzu! ”

Seeing this, the group of loafers suddenly lost their temper, and a few timid loafers knelt directly on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

The ruffian at the head stumbled and said, "General, general, the little one is just joking and laughing with them!" ”

The sentry didn't pay any attention to the ruffians, but said loudly, "Listen, everybody! Liu Juntao, the commander-in-chief of Shandong Town, ordered: From now on, the Tiance Army will be stationed in various disaster relief points to maintain law and order everywhere, and all those who oppress the good and do evil will be severely punished! ”

The surrounding victims cheered when they heard this, Liu Juntao's prestige among the people is very high, and he can be said to be a hero of the Shandong people.

At this moment, the boy who was protecting his sister stood up, pointed at the ruffians and said, "This general, these scoundrels have been bullying us, and they want to take my sister away!" ”

"General! This kid is talking nonsense! ”

"That's it, the general spares his life!"

When the sentry commander heard this, he immediately said, "Someone! Take all these bastards, escort the Yellow River embankment to do hard labor, and the local ruffian headed by him will correct the law on the spot! ”

"Order!"

When these ruffians heard this, they immediately made a fuss, and in order to escape, they risked their lives, preparing to confront this team of Tiance Army soldiers.

But where are these ruffians who are the opponents of the wolf-like soldiers of the Tiance Army, they were beaten in a blink of an eye, and two unlucky ghosts were killed on the spot!

"Take it away!"

More than a dozen wailing hands were taken away by the soldiers of the Tiance Army, and the ruffian led by him trembled even more, and the sentry commander directly stepped forward to draw his knife and cut it down, and beheaded him in public.

"Long live Mr. Liu!"

"Long live the Tiance Army!"

Seeing this, the surrounding victims immediately cheered, and the family of six even knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

And the little boy looked at the mighty soldiers of the Tiance Army, his eyes were even brighter, and he muttered: "Tiance Army! When I grow up, I will also join the Tiance Army, like these generals, to eliminate violence and peace! ”

At the same time, this scene is also constantly being staged in Yanzhou Mansion and Qingzhou Prefecture, and black-hearted businessmen everywhere have also been wiped out.

With the full cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Intelligence, the officers and men of the Trapping Army and the Eagle Yang Army cooperated with the Investigation Department of the Inspection Department to attack everywhere, and within half a month, they arrested 128 black-hearted businessmen, seized all the food, medicine, cotton clothes and other materials hoarded by these black-hearted businessmen, and all these black-hearted businessmen were raided and imprisoned!

"Zongzhen, these days, the officers and men of the Trap Army and the Eagle Yang Army have assisted the Public Security Department of the Inspection Department, and a total of 876 ruffians have been arrested, and all of them have been escorted to the Yellow River embankment for hard labor; And killed 51 people who committed the most heinous crimes on the spot, and the victims and officials from all over the country applauded our Shandong Town! ”

After Liu Zi'an finished reporting the news, Liu Juntao was very satisfied and said: "Order the inspection department and the military department to continue to maintain, as long as the disaster relief is not over for a day, there will be no relaxation!" ”

"Good!"

"And!"

Liu Juntao continued: "Count the materials seized from the hands of black-hearted businessmen, transport them all to the disaster area, and distribute them to the victims in various places. In particular, grain prices and prices are soaring in all parts of the disaster-stricken areas, and we must stabilize prices as soon as possible, otherwise there will be big problems! ”

Liu Zi'an hesitated a little and said: "General Town, although the prices and food prices in the disaster area are high now, it is also because of the shortage of materials, and some law-abiding businessmen are also involved. ”

"Humph!"

Liu Juntao snorted coldly and said, "When the country is in crisis, can't these businessmen solve the country's worries?" At this time, I still want to make money, don't these businessmen make less money with us on weekdays! ”

Liu Zi'an said: "General Town, what if those businessmen are blinded by interests and fight a price war with us? This will cause local unrest! ”

Liu Juntao did not hesitate and said directly: "Kill!" No mercy! As long as someone is against us, then raid the town! ”

Hearing this, Liu Zi'an was shocked, and at the same time felt that Liu Juntao had become more and more decisive, and the momentum of the superior had completely shocked Liu Zi'an.

"What? Do you think I'm a little bloody? ”

Liu Zi'an thought for a moment and nodded.

Liu Juntao said: "Zi'an, you remember, we are the generals of the Ming Dynasty, and our duty is to defend the family and the country and protect the people. ”

When Liu Zi'an heard this, he immediately got up, bowed to Liu Juntao, and said, "Humble position, I have been taught!" ”

A few days later, Shandong Town put a large amount of grain and materials in Yanzhou Mansion and Qingzhou Prefecture, and the prices in the two places dropped rapidly, and the merchants everywhere were surprisingly calm, and no one had the courage to confront Shandong Town.
