Liushuhezi Village is a village with a relatively high concentration of Hui people. It is less than ten miles away from the county seat, and the terrain is flat and wide.

Therefore, when Ma Zhongying attacked the county seat, he chose to set up camp here.

Moreover, when the army was defeated and fled east with the remnants of the army, he also invited County Magistrate Liu to meet here.

According to the unannounced visit, most of the villagers in the village did not welcome Ma Zhongying.

At the same time, to a greater or lesser extent, he has been harassed and exploited by horse bandits.

But there are also a small number of villagers and wealthy families who listened to Ma Zhongying's incitement and demagogy and made a lot of efforts for Ma Zhongying.

Now, the horse bandits have fled to southern Xinjiang in defeat, and those pro-horse people have no backers, and they are afraid that the government will settle accounts with them.

All day long, like ants on a hot pot, I can't stop worrying. A few people also plan to leave their homeland and make a living elsewhere.

And those who have been ravaged and robbed by horse bandits are screaming and scolding all day long.

Those dog days who said that they were pro-horses recruited Ma Zhongying to the village, clamoring for them to pay for their losses.

made the village panic, and even the dealer in the field was delayed.

County Magistrate Liu, seeing that the situation was serious and complicated, took Xiangzi and personally came to Liushuhezi Village.

He first visited several villagers and large households, and then exchanged views with the village chief. After lunch, the whole village was called for a meeting.

County Magistrate Liu, first of all, I declare that the horse bandits are against the Nationalist Government, and since we are under the jurisdiction of the government, we must completely draw a clear line with the horse bandits.

Those who have contributed to the horse bandits should not know the truth, are deceived by the bandits, or are coerced.

Now that the matter has passed, the government is not to blame for the past, and everyone can live with peace of mind.

For the families who have suffered losses and persecution, after detailed verification and identification by the village, the village and the county government will jointly compensate them.

As for the individual big households in the village, what kind of role did they play in this incident, they should understand in their hearts, and the county also grasps the situation.

Here, I won't name it all. I hope that in this compensation, I can actively donate money and materials in order to seek comfort in conscience.

From now on, if anyone dares, they will have anything to do with the horse bandits, or harbor and take in the horse bandits. Once verified, the same crime as the bandits will be punished!

After the meeting ended, the rich man Bao kept looking at the gap and accosted the county magistrate Liu. said that he wanted to invite County Magistrate Liu to sit at home.

County Magistrate Liu glanced at him contemptuously, and said with a cold face: "I was about to visit you." ”

The rich man said with a flattering smile: "It is an honor for County Magistrate Liu to come to the Humble House. ”

County Magistrate Liu sneered at him and said, "Okay! Don't make a joke, what a cold house. Your house is one of the best in the county, and the swill poured out by your family can feed several families. ”

When the rich man heard this, he said with an ugly face: "County Magistrate Liu is smiling, smiling. ”

After coming to the living room and sitting down, the rich man hurriedly beckoned people to make tea, and said with a smile: "At night, County Magistrate Liu will have a casual meal at home, right?" ”

County Magistrate Liu glanced at him, and said in a cold voice: "Even if you have a meal, there are a few questions I want to ask you, so it's best to tell the truth." ”

The fat face of the rich man convulsed a few times spasmically. Hurriedly made a look of sincere fear, and said, "If you ask, I will tell the truth." ”

County Magistrate Liu took a sip of tea and asked slowly, "When Ma Zhongying left, who was left behind?" ”

The rich man hurriedly said: "Don't leave people behind, you will go all the way, and even the people who have been shot will be carried away." ”

County Magistrate Liu's grim gaze swept across his face. Then he asked, "Ma Zhongying, didn't you leave anything to say?" ”

The rich man first shook his head for a moment, and then said with a smile on his face: "He treats me as a green onion." It's not that I'm here, don't talk about eating and drinking for nothing, it's still ...... I still want to beat my girl's idea. Hi! When I met that thief baby, I was bad for eight lifetimes. ”

The rich man said and cried.

County Magistrate Liu snorted coldly and said, "Did you really not even leave a word?" ”

The rich man made a look of digging out his heart and lungs, and said: "To be honest, don't even let go of a stinky fart, just shoot the ditch and leave." ”

Xiangzi saw that he looked cunning and cunning, so he glanced at County Magistrate Liu and said, "County Magistrate Liu, why don't you get the platoon commander who surrendered and face the rich man Bao at the third end, and shake everything clearly, so as not to wronged people." ”

As he spoke, he got up.

When the rich man heard this, his surprised gaze swept over the faces of the two of them.

Tentatively asked, "Yes...... Someone surrendered? ”

County Magistrate Liu snorted coldly and said: "People know the general situation, abandon the dark and turn to the light, and don't want to go all the way to the dark." Being an enemy of the government will not end well after all. ”

With a frightened face, the rich man spun back and forth on the ground a few times.

Suddenly, "poofed, fell to his knees, and said cryingly: "County Magistrate Liu, spare me!" Ma Zhongying did leave a grin.

Let me encourage some young people, and when I heard the news of his attack on Dihua, I was told to lead them to defect, leaving a dozen guns behind. County Magistrate Liu! I'm letting the thief be forced to fight. If I don't do what he says, the thief will take my girl away and make him small, I really can't do anything. ”

County Magistrate Liu's tone was a little softer and said, "I know you were forced, so I didn't take you to the county office for questioning." If you go to the county office, maybe you will be put in prison as soon as possible. ”

The fat body of the rich man was rolling on the ground, and he looked grateful.

County Magistrate Liu waved at him, looking a little impatient, and said, "Okay! Okay! Let's get down to business, what about guns? ”

The rich man hurriedly got up and shouted to the door, "Ersa! Ersa! ”

A middle-aged man rushed in.

The rich man's fat body shook and said, "Come quickly, bring the bundle of guns." ”

The man turned and left, and without much effort, he walked in with a bundle of broken guns of various lengths.

The rich man said with a sincere face: "Just these broken guys, they said that they were left for us to practice aiming, and when they got there, they would shoot the guns." Oh, yes, and a box gun, and two packs of ammunition, in my house, and I'll give it to you. ”

As he spoke, he shook himself and took it out of the back room.

County Magistrate Liu smiled at him and said, "You can be regarded as a precipice, fortunately you understood it early." Otherwise, you will not only be sorry for your ancestors, but also affect your children and grandchildren. ”

The rich man nodded like pounding garlic, and said yes again and again.

County Magistrate Liu paused for a moment, and then said: "You and Ma Zhongying, the entanglement has already caused a bad impact in the village. Those who have been plagued by horse bandits are also very angry with you. I think you will take the initiative to give more money this time, so as to plug people's mouths. They are all from the same village, and they don't look up to see each other. Don't make chickens and dogs bark all day long, no Ontario life. ”

The rich man hurriedly said: "What you said is that I will do it, and I will do it." ”

After leaving the Bao family and getting on the horse, County Magistrate Liu looked at Xiangzi with suspicious eyes and said, "You kid, you have so many ghost ideas, you almost made me stunned." ”

Xiangzi smiled and said, "Didn't you pick it up quickly, I saw that guy had something in his heart, and he didn't want to explain it honestly." With an idea, I tricked him. Unexpectedly, he was really weak-hearted. ”

County Magistrate Liu smiled happily and said, "After all, he knows that with Ma Zhongying's current strength, he can't move Dihua at all. In the future, it will not become much of a climate. He's just grass on the wall, falling with the wind. He was reluctant to leave such a large family property and run errands for Ma Zhongying. This guy is a thief. ”
