Chapter 203: Arrest
Dawang Village, on this day, . v mīŧ
The first person, with a face like black charcoal, round eyes, a lion's mouth and a wide nose, and a body standing on the ground like a hill, was very shocked, this person was Dian Wei, he was ordered by Tai Shici to arrive at Dawang Village with the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion, and the soldiers surrounded the village and rushed straight into the village.
"Who is the village chief, come out for me!"
Dian Wei stood in the middle of the village with an iron halberd in his hand and yelled.
The sound of thunder echoed at the entrance of the village, only the sound of footsteps was heard, and in a short time, all the figures in the village disappeared, and everyone returned to their homes and closed the door.
Dian Wei was an uninvited guest, and no one came out to greet him.
"Damn, Uncle Dian came to find someone, but no one came out, the village chief came out immediately, I counted three times, counted to three, and no one came out, I ordered the village to be slaughtered!"
Dian Wei raised a finger and shouted, "One !! â
As the words fell, a gray-haired old man walked out on crutches.
The old man had horror in his eyes, he walked very slowly, swaying, as if a gust of wind was blowing, he could blow the old man to the ground, and if he looked closely, he could also find that the old man's body was trembling slightly.
At the critical time, Dian Wei didn't have the heart to respect the old and love the young, and with a wave of his big hand, he ordered: "Go to two people, bring the old man over to me!" â
The soldiers acted immediately, and soon, the old village chief was directly put in front of Dian Wei.
"Master Jun, you, you, what do you command!"
Cold sweat broke out on the old man's forehead, his body trembled, and he almost couldn't stand on crutches.
Dian Wei went straight to the topic and asked, "What are the prominent clans in the village, you tell me, and I will send someone to call their patriarch and go with you!" â
"Where to go." The old village chief asked tentatively.
Dian Wei replied crisply: "Barracks! â
The old village chief exclaimed, in his cloudy eyes, his eyes were dripping, and his head shook like a rattle, "No, no, the people of Dawang Village are very poor, there are no big clans, they are all small people!" â
"Fuck your shit!"
Dian Wei's eyes widened angrily, pointed to the surrounding houses, and shouted: "They are all poor, where are there so many blue brick houses in the village, can this be lived in by the poor!" â
"Say!"
With a loud roar, the village chief was almost shaken to the ground, and he only felt a buzzing in his ears.
The village chief secretly slandered in his heart, this reckless thing is really too scary.
It's not wrong to be ugly, it's not right to be scary.
The old man is a person who is accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, standing still in place and standing still, and said steadily: "Master Jun, there is really no big clan in the village, and the houses in our village are built by the villagers together, please believe me, I swear, there must be none!" â
"The ghost only believes you, I'll count three times, if you don't say it, I'll cut off your head first!"
Dian Wei picked up the iron halberd in his hand, the sharp halberd blade was extremely dazzling in the sunlight, which made the village chief panic, he saw that the iron halberd was about to fall, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Master Jun, I said, I will say everything!" â
"Dishonest old man!"
Dian Wei nodded and motioned for the village chief to speak.
The village chief said: "There are the Zhao family, the Lao Li family, and the Lao Qian family in the village, and these three are the most prestigious!" â
Dian Wei commanded: "You lead the way, bring people with you!" â
In about a quarter of an hour, the patriarch of the wang clan in the village or the patriarch of the big household was brought out, in addition to the three people mentioned by the village chief, there were also five people, everyone looked at the old village chief's eyes, they were all fierce, but they were helpless, things came to this point, they couldn't blame the old village chief, it was really too scary for the black charcoal general.
Dian Wei nodded with satisfaction and said, "You show me the way and go to the next village!" â
"Yes, yes!"
The old village chief didn't hesitate, nodded and agreed.
Dawang Village and Xiaowang Village next door are not compatible, they belong to a feud, and they can harm the Wang clan and the village chief of Xiaowang Village, and the old village chief is a hundred willing.
My back doesn't hurt anymore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I walk faster.
Dian Wei led the army to leave and went straight to Xiaowang Village.
From Dawang Village, Xiaowang Village, to the surrounding villages, and even nearby towns, they were all arrested by Dian Wei, and all the patriarchs of the big clans, or the village chiefs of each village, were taken to the military camp in Wangzhuang Township by Dian Wei.
Dian Wei had arrested too many people, more than 100 people, and Tai Shici chose to meet everyone in the school yard.
In the school field, Tai Shici stood on the high platform that was built.
Around the high platform, all the people who were forcibly invited by Dian Wei sat around.
At this moment, everyone was extremely curious.
Since he didn't do anything to them, he definitely didn't intend to kill anyone, but something was announced.
Tai Shi Ci coughed lightly twice, his eyes swept away, and all the people around the high platform consciously quieted down, looked up at Tai Shi Ci on the high platform, and only heard Tai Shi Ci say loudly: "Everyone, it is Yuan Shao's order to bring you here!" â
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar below, and my heart sank.
Is it to ask for sin?
They all got the order issued by Yuan Shao, knowing that a head could receive 10,000 yuan, and because someone had already received the money, after this news was confirmed, the people were moved.
When Tai Shici mentioned this, everyone was uneasy.
Tai Shi Ci smiled and continued: "Everyone, please rest assured, I invited you here, not to ask for guilt, but to give you a chance to make money, the army has arrived in Wangzhuang Township, and ten miles in front of Wangzhuang Township, there is a checkpoint set up by the army under Yuan Shao, with Yuan troops stationed, tomorrow, we will launch an attack and conquer the other party in one fell swoop!" â
Speaking of this, Tai Shici paused for a moment and continued: "After the first battle, there will be countless corpses of Yuan soldiers left at the checkpoint ahead, when the time comes, I will let you return, and when you go back, immediately mobilize your people to cut off the heads of Yuan soldiers and go to the county government to receive money, even if it is the heads of Yuan soldiers, you can also say that they are the heads of our soldiers, one head is 10,000 yuan, enough for you to make a lot of money."
In the crowd, there was an uproar.
Many people suddenly had endless anticipation in their eyes, and after the First World War, it was definitely countless corpses.
However, there are also many who are reluctant.
It was his own villagers who died, and he went to cut off the heads of his fellow villagers, which was a matter of being poked in the back.
Most people, however, are tempted.
Tai Shi Ci smiled slightly and said: "In order to avoid the leakage of news, I have wronged you to stay in the camp for a day, and tomorrow when the war starts, I will let you go!" â
"Okay, thank you, General!"
There are always people who are tempted to be moved, and one person echoes loudly.
Immediately afterward, countless more people chimed in.
Tai Shici saw the excited scene of these people on the high platform, and his heart was relieved, judging from the reaction of the people, Guo Jia's strategy has worked, and the wealth is moving, these people went to the battlefield to cut off the heads of Yuan Jun's soldiers and went to the county government to receive money, and the county officials of the counties must not be able to bear it, and the people did not receive the money, they will definitely make trouble, and then Yuan Shao's strategy will have to stop.
The counties are chaotic, and Tai Shici can take the opportunity to lead the army forward.
This strategy can be said to kill two birds with one stone, not only relieving the crisis, but also opposing Yuan Shao's army.
