Chapter 9 The Marine Police Go Ashore
The water patrol team is a yamen under the jurisdiction of the Jingshi Police Department, with more than 100 guns, three small steamers, and a number of sampans, responsible for water security in the Gyeonggi area.
Nowadays, the railways are developed, Beijing to Tianjinwei, to Shanhaiguan, to Zhangjiakou, to Hankou, all connected to the railway, the train is much more convenient and faster than the ship, the trade on the canal has plummeted, only some cargo ships and some small fishing boats are left, and the life of the marine police is also sad, except for the monthly salary of seven yuan, there is very little other income.
Recently, the police chief Wu Bingxiang made a personnel transfer, and transferred Xu Guodong, the former director of the out-town police station, to the Marine Police Force to be the captain, Xu Guodong knew that this was Li Dingbang's secret trick for himself, and he hated it so much, but he had nothing to do, so he could only stay on the small steamer all day long to fish to pass the time, fantasizing that one day he could return to the city and be promoted to make a fortune.
The opportunity soon fell on Xu Guodong's head, when the small steamer was patrolling the waters around the Yongding River Mentougou, someone on the shore shouted, as if something big had happened, although the things on land were not under the control of the water police, but the bored Xu Guodong didn't know which tendon was wrong for a while, and actually sent someone to bring the person up in a small boat.
The man was in his forties, dressed as a poor man, Xu Guodong thought it was a small case like a neighborhood dispute, so he lazily lay on the chair and took a sip of tea, and said, "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”
The man hugged his fists, his spirit was strong, like a person who practiced martial arts, "Official, there is a big case, the young lady of the Ministry of Communications Yao's family was tied up by a thief, and she was tracked down to this point, and she lost her trace, the thief should be down the river, and he is weak in the next situation, and he also asks the official to mobilize people and horses to chase and suppress the thief!" ”
The tea that Xu Guodong just drank squirted out, and the small teapot almost came out of his hand, and the young lady of Yao's family was kidnapped, this is a monstrous case! He didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked for details, the man recounted it like this, Xu Guodong gasped, and a voice sounded in his heart: Xu Guodong, your opportunity has come!
"Make a fire, drive at full speed, and chase Lao Tzu!" Xu Guodong jumped up and gave an order, and then said to the middle-aged man: "What do you call it?" ”
The middle-aged humanitarian: "My surname is Xia, Tianqiao is a trick, and my daughter went to Xiangshan to worship the Buddha and encountered this incident, we can't ignore it, my daughter took the first step to track it down, leaving a secret mark by the river, I thought that the thief was fierce, and I had to ask the government to come forward, so I alarmed the official." ”
Xu Guodong was in awe: "It turns out that Master Xia is a person in the rivers and lakes, disrespectful and disrespectful, in the underwater police captain Xu Guodong, Master Xia, please bow of the boat." ”
"Captain Xu, please." Master Xia's eyes were blazing, and he made a gesture of please.
The two came to the bow of the boat, standing side by side, the boatman took off his coat, picked up the shovel, shoveled the best Kailuan white coal into the boiler, the fire was blazing, black smoke was billowing, Xu Guodong shouted at the top of his voice: "Brothers, my surname Xu has just taken office, we are not familiar with each other, I have nothing else to do, just one, I can't see the brothers starving and poor, now there is a big case, the young lady of the Ministry of Communications Yao's family let his mother be kidnapped by the bandits!" ”
The marine policemen looked at each other, and their long-standing ordinary life had made their sharpness disappear, and they still had the courage to face the bandits.
Xu Guodong then shouted: "Brothers, our water police have a chance to raise their eyebrows, destroy the kidnappers, save Miss Yao, I guarantee that everyone will have a heavy reward, at least this number per person!" ”
As he spoke, he stretched out five fingers and shook them.
A police officer said, "Fifty? ”
Xu Guodong glared: "What do you think of Vice Chief Yao, he is a rich man, five hundred!" You know no, five hundred is now in the ocean, and it can only be more, not less. ”
The policemen's eyes are straight, five hundred oceans, what a concept!
The average patrol officer's monthly salary is seven yuan, and after deducting three yuan and five for food, there are only three yuan and five left, and he has to feed his family, this day can be imagined, five hundred yuan, which is equivalent to ten years' salary!
Xu Guodong saw that the eyes of the marine police began to liven, and continued to bewitch: "What's so great about the bandits, it's not that they have one head and two arms, and they still have to die if they are shot, we have twenty brothers in a boat, we have knives and guns, and we are afraid that they will not succeed?" Saved Miss Yao, at least 500 yuan per person, buy a house and marry a daughter-in-law, it's up to you, if anyone is unwilling to do it, I won't force him, just let him get off the boat, brothers, what's the matter, you have the final say! ”
"Yes, what Captain Xu said is reasonable!"
"Do it with them!"
"Save Miss Yao and make a big ocean!"
The emotions of the marine police were aroused, brandishing their rifles and screaming, Xu Guodong smiled with satisfaction, he not only effectively boosted morale, but also confirmed his prestige.
The small steamer was rampage in the Yongding River with black smoke, and all the ships avoided it, and it was not long before it was found that there was a wooden boat leaning against the shore in the distance, and the cabin was smashed to pieces, and there were blood stains everywhere.
Master Xia's heart hung up, what he was worried about was not the safety of the hostages, but the safety of his daughter, who was anxious and reckless, in case of an accident, how could he be worthy of her mother under Jiuquan.
Xu Guodong held a gun in one hand and a microphone made of foreign iron in the other, shouting loudly: "Come out and surrender, or we will shoot." ”
There was a dead silence, no one answered.
"Look, Captain." A marine policeman shouted pointing to the river.
There was the corpse of a dwarf floating in the river.
Master Xia's heart moved, according to Ah Fu's account, there was indeed a dwarf among the kidnappers, he was worried about his daughter, and he flew to the other party's boat with a shake of his body, and the beautiful light skills made the marine police amazed.
After searching the boat and not finding his daughter, Master Xia shouted at the little steamer: "There is no anger, come here." ”
The marine police jumped over with confidence, searched and found five bloody corpses, as well as a cabin full of oceans and banknotes.
"Captain, there's still one alive." A marine police officer spotted the dying old smoke.
Xu Guodong went up to inspect it, ordered someone to bandage Lao Yan's wound, and cheered up the water police: "Brothers, the duck in hand can't let it fly, there is a seed, follow me ashore to save people." ”
"Help, save!" Seeing the heavy casualties of the bandits, the marine police had a better chance of victory.
"Xiao Wang, you immediately go back to the team headquarters and report to Director Wu of the Police Department by phone, saying that our Marine Police Team has found kidnappers, and after a fierce exchange of fire, five bandits have been killed and one person has been captured alive, and they are currently pursuing them on the shore."
"Yes!" Xiao Wang took two policemen, stopped a passing boat, and headed north.
Xu Guodong left a few policemen on the boat to guard, and with the rest of the men and horses, the bullets were loaded, the bayonets were unsheathed, and they chased away murderously.
……
The sky was getting dark, the black wind was riding on the back of the horse, his brain was dizzy, the scene in front of him was gradually blurred, and the horse's hooves kicked him so badly that he coughed up blood, and almost met the king of Hades.
The military advisor was not lightly injured, he was shot in the foot, the blood soaked through the shoes, and the arm was bitten by Miss Yao, and the flesh was blurred and painful.
"Damn, this woman is a dog!" The military advisor cursed in a low voice.
Miss Yao was no better, her clothes were in tatters, her face was bruised, and there was a big bump on her forehead, she looked like a refugee, and at the moment she was riding on her horse with her hands tied, and she looked at the two bandits with angry eyes.
"Look at what, believe it or not, I gouged out your eyes." The military advisor whispered to threaten her.
Miss Yao smiled contemptuously: "You're not that kind of person. ”
"Tell me, what kind of person am I?" The military advisor sneered.
"Xiucai rebelled, and if you don't succeed in three years, you will be a sour Xiucai." Yao Yilei said.
These words hit the sore spot of the military advisor, and his face turned cold, and he no longer paid attention to her.
"I know you're a good person, if you let me go, I promise that I won't hold you accountable, and I'll give you a reward, give as much as you want, how about it." Yao Yilei judged the situation and knew that the kidnappers were currently in a very poor situation, and it was a good time to divide and disintegrate and mess up their position.
The military advisor couldn't help but glance back at the big boss, Hei Feng sat on the horse and staggered, the blood on his head covered his eyes, and he didn't notice the conversation between the two of them at all.
"Hmph, I'm a righteous person, and I won't do anything to betray my brother, so you can save it." The military advisor rejected Miss Yao sternly, but Yao Yilei saw a hint of wavering in his eyes.
"Big boss, are you alright?" The military advisor rode to the side of the black wind and asked.
Hei Feng raised his head, and his voice was hoarse: "I was kicked by this beast, and it hurts a lot." ”
"Where are we going now?" The military advisor looked around vigilantly, and said in a low voice, they were wounded all over their bodies, and they didn't dare to take the road, and they didn't know where to go at the moment, there were farmlands and villages in the distance, and sheep were grazing on the hillsides, so idyllic.
"Go home, I'm afraid I won't be able to, I have to see my mother for the last time." Black Wind spat out a mouthful of blood, and his voice was weak.
"What about this chick?" The military advisor asked.
"Take her with you, if I die, I have to have a girl with me." Black Wind took out a few gold bars from his arms and handed them to the military advisor.
"Qingyan, eldest brother can't stand you, you are a talented person, but you entered the green forest with me as a bandit, I am not a good master, I do things roughly, and I have caused my brothers to give their lives, if I die, you don't want to avenge me, take the money to Tianjin, go to Hankou, do some small business, don't take the black road again."
"Big boss, you can't die, I'll help you find Langzhong." The military advisor choked up.
Hei Feng waved his hand weakly: "Don't delay, go home, I miss my mother." ”
The military advisor nodded with tears in his eyes.
"Don't let her run." Black Wind Nunu Mouth.
The military advisor turned his head to see that Yao Yilei didn't know when to roll off the horse and was running wildly.
