On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, in the Qinzheng Hall of Xiyuan, Yang Lin sat upright, and the generals sat below, divided on both sides, waiting for the marshal's instructions, talking about the theme of the meeting, and summoning everyone to come.

To everyone's surprise, Yang Lin looked around left and right, and finally stayed on the first seat on the left, and said lightly: "Huo Xiong, as the chief official of the capital, you will tell me about the recent public security in the capital, especially in terms of social stability, the situation of crime. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's minds became active, and they speculated that the smart people had thought of some things, thought of some gossip in the past few days, and seemed to know the theme of the meeting.

Huo Xiong was very calm, as soon as Yang Lin's words ended, he immediately stood up, and said slowly without being shocked: "Report Marshal, since the sixth day of the first month completely took the capital, in the first two days, all kinds of crimes have occurred frequently, murder, robbery, theft, robbery, etc., there are dozens of cases every day, after the establishment of the military management police station, Jiangxi's master of solving cases has arrived, coupled with the strong cooperation of the army, the crime in the capital has dropped significantly, and it is now within a reasonable range." ”

However, everyone else here knew that this was not the answer that the marshal wanted, the content was not only too general, not targeted, not yet the main point, and did not involve substantive content, Yang Lin's next words just confirmed the speculation in everyone's hearts, making some people's hearts uneasy.

"Commander Huo, let's be more detailed, summarize the content of those crimes, and say, where do the main criminals come from? For example, the remnants of the Qing court engaged in sabotage, pure speculators wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the capital to make a windfall, and there were also underworld personnel who suddenly sprung up to collect protection money from the people, and so on. ”

At this moment, Yang Lin said very calmly, but it was very sharp, meaning that Huo Xiong was not nervous, but some generals were apprehensive first, and did not dare to meet Yang Lin's gaze, as if they did not see the dodging gaze of these people, the slightest change in expression, Huo Xiong still answered fluently.

Hearing this, Huo Xiong only hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "Hmm... In this case, I will tell the truth, report to the marshal, so far, the instability factors in the capital, the main criminals can be classified into four categories, first, the survivors of the Qing soldiers, those fanatical diehards, hiding in the capital, waiting for the opportunity, carrying out crazy sabotage operations, attacking and killing our patrol personnel, and taking revenge on those celebrities who show favor to us, intimidating the people, and trying to create an atmosphere of panic in the capital. ”

"Secondly, some idle people in society have set up some gangs and organizations with the nature of the underworld, threatening and intimidating some shopkeepers, merchants, and vendors along the street, so as to collect protection money and take advantage of the opportunity to collect money, and sometimes, they even dare to compete with our police personnel in secret, and once the victim reports the crime, the members of those gangs and organizations will retaliate, making the people in the city panic."

"Third, it is some pure petty theft, theft, no background and power, that is, when the people in the capital are panicked, when the normal order has not been restored, the people do not know the existence of the police department, and they still don't believe in us, and they want to make a big profit, so they steal a lot, and the people who are stolen dare not report the crime, and some people are afraid of things, so they want to calm the matter, so they add fuel to the fire The habits of those petty thefts."

Speaking of this, Huo Xiong paused, and suddenly said: "These three types of unstable factors that endanger the capital are easy to solve, as long as after a period of time, increase the intensity of patrols and the number and frequency of patrol personnel, increase the publicity of our police station, so that the people of the whole city have some understanding, after establishing a certain trust mechanism, the above three types of crimes will be disintegrated and completely cured, it is difficult to say, it belongs to the last category of people, it is the most difficult to govern, involving the interests of all parties." ”

Huo Xiong paused again, and the sensitive nerves of some people suddenly tightened, becoming more and more worried, ups and downs, the most fearful and worried things still had to be poked out, Yang Lin's voice sounded at the right time: "Oh... The trickiest part? Commander Huo, let's talk about it, what is the last one? What's the trick? I'd like to hear whose interests are at stake? ”

"Report Marshal, the last category is none other than our own threat~"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, the originally heavy atmosphere became extremely tense, aroused the sensitive minds of some people, the theme of today's meeting has been very clear, the marshal is going to borrow Huo Xiong's mouth, to say the stability of the capital, especially from his own people, and Huo Xiong does not seem to be aware of the change in anger, still silent and endless.

"Since taking the imperial city, there has been an atmosphere of arrogance and lasciviousness in our army, some soldiers and generals are arrogant and arrogant, and in order to bring disaster to the capital, they rob some shops at every turn, and when they see beautiful women, they will rob them home, and they also collude with some indiscriminate personnel to covet the wealth of rich and noble people."

|“ Not only that, but those soldiers and generals were still oppressing the people in broad daylight, confronting our patrolmen and policemen, almost misfired, and fought, if it weren't for the mediation of some people, and the mud, there would have been a weapon fight, and there would have been a large-scale casualty of military personnel and police personnel, and they fought viciously with each other. ”

Between the words, some people's bodies trembled slightly, cold sweat flowed, and their heads became lower and lower, but Huo Xiong was unusual, his tone became sonorous and powerful, and he was filled with righteous indignation.

"So, marshal, the first three unstable factors are very easy to solve, as long as we establish the prestige of our government, gain the recognition and trust of the people, and cooperate with the military, police and people, whether it is those remnants of the four central schools in the Qing court, or those underworld personnel and petty thieves, it will be nothing to worry about, there is no breeding soil, and the longer the time, it can be completely eradicated."

"However, due to the emergence of those scum in our army, the people who have brought disaster to the people, have expropriated and extorted, which has greatly damaged the image of our government, and the residents of the capital have begun to watch the fire from across the strait to see if we have stayed for a long time? Moreover, the guardiness against us is getting heavier and heavier, and it can be said that the police personnel are difficult to carry out their work, and they are often hindered by some inexplicable factors, and if this continues for a long time, the situation will be very serious, and the consequences are unpredictable. ”

Yang Lin was not angry, but very calm, calm almost a little weird, because of this, the tense atmosphere rose sharply, reaching a new level, as the saying goes, the night before a storm is often quiet, this is the case.

It seemed that an emotion was brewing, waiting for the kind of atmosphere he wanted, and after a short silence, Yang Lin finally spoke.

"All of you here are experts, I don't think there are many people who don't know Li Zicheng, right? After entering the capital, up to the king of Chuang, many generals and ministers, down to the smallest soldiers, rampant in the capital, robbing the open, exploiting, and raiding some famous ministers and the wealthy gentry's property, therefore, Li Zicheng in just over a month, the people's hearts were lost, and he withdrew from the capital and defeated Maicheng. Since then, he has been in a slump, defeated and retreated again and again, and was finally chased and killed by the Qing army, and ended up dying in Jiugong Mountain. ”

Yang Lin paused, his eyes became sharp, and he looked at the people on both sides one by one, forcing his gaze, extremely aggressive, and the people on both sides only felt that their backs were cold, as if they were being stared at by a wild beast.

After glancing at everyone, seeing that no one dared to look at him, his expression was a catch, but suddenly, Yang Lin's whole person burst out with a majestic awe-inspiring momentum, and the person who was pressed was out of breath, and his voice became even more passionate and cold and piercing, sonorous and powerful.

"Everyone says that you can't sell your name and learn to be the king, but for us, it should be that you can't sell your name and learn to break into the king! I don't care what you think, I don't care what you think, from today onwards, whoever dares to commit a crime, undermine the order and stability of the occupied areas, bring disaster to the people, pay for the lives of those who kill, and punish those who commit crimes, everything will be in accordance with the letter of the law! ”

Immediately afterwards, Yang Lin's words turned sharp, looked at Huo Xiong again, and said loudly: "Commander Huo, from today onwards, no matter whose soldier it is, once it is found that it violates the law and discipline, it should be arrested and judged, according to the wartime regulations, if anyone intercedes, let him come from himself!" ”

"If the strength of the police and patrol personnel is not enough, even if the troops are transferred into the city to encircle and suppress, no matter who is involved, they will arrest whom, there are no exceptions, you will be given half a month's time, you must manage the security of the capital well, and there will be no major chaos!"

Hearing this, Huo Xiong immediately came to his senses, became agitated, stood up, saluted a standard military salute, and at the same time, he also responded loudly: "Yes, marshal, I promise to complete the task, with your words, in less than half a month, within ten days, I will be able to restore order, and there will be no major chaos!" ”

"Well, that's good!" Yang Lin nodded with satisfaction, but the others were in a heavy mood, and they knew deeply that the marshal was knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, and he would take preventive shots in advance, so as to clear the obstacles for Huo Xiong's next actions and reduce the resistance and gossip from the top.

After saying this, Yang Lin began to change the topic, explain the tasks for the next few months, and make general directional arrangements, however, from beginning to end, it seems that he still hasn't come out of the atmosphere just now, some people's emotions are still not high, and their hearts are heavy, and they don't even know how they got out of the Qinzheng Palace.

From the moment the meeting ended, the situation in the capital that was gradually recovering became surging again, a big reshuffle was quietly coming, and an invisible cloud began to shroud over the capital.
