Chapter 71: Secret War Between Rogues 2

Sun Chengzong, as the governor of Shaanxi Province and the capital, was about to be promoted to the governor, holding military and political power, and if he wanted to manage the prefectures and counties under his rule, he first had to settle a large number of displaced people who had been affected by natural disasters and wars, uprooted from their hometowns, and starving, and sufficient food was the only solution.

Expect the gentry to provide money and food to help the hungry homeless? Don't tease B, they are desperately raising the price of grain to make the country rich, the life and death of the people have nothing to do with them, borrowing money and grain from them? Give you a little, like sending a child, he really can't pull this face.

The Red Gang brought a large amount of grain, half of which was purchased by the official at a low price, and half was sold to the people at a low price, for Sun Chengzong and the people, it was simply a living Bodhisattva who rescued the suffering, and it was too late to welcome it, not to mention that the backers behind the Red Gang were stronger than everyone imagined, and Sun Chengzong did not dare to be a little sloppy, not only sternly warned all the officials under him, but also dispatched a team of people to protect the safety of the Red Gang.

It's not that the gentry don't want to borrow the hands of the government, but without exception, they all hit a wall, even if those officials who took their N benefits decisively shook their heads and refused, and advised them to take it easy, don't provoke the Red Gang, as for the reason, they don't know, the governor didn't say it, they can only speculate that the governor has received N benefits from the Red Gang, so he will protect him like this.

Of course, if you consider it from the political performance, they will also support the Red Gang, but the Red Gang did not give them benefits, and they are naturally a little unhappy, but due to the prestige of the governor, no one dares to come nonsense, during the resettlement of the displaced people, there are a few officials who do not know whether they are alive or dead dare to stretch out their black hands, and as a result, they were beheaded by the governor on the spot.

The gentry and heroes took the warnings of those officials as wind in their ears, they thought that the power of the Red Gang was limited to the area of Jingshi, and even the fierce dragons crossing the river could not fight them these local snakes, not to mention smashing their jobs, even if they didn't kill people, they had to retract them and keep their own one-third of an acre of land.

Sent peasant households in the village to pretend to be homeless people to buy grain, stirred up the people in the city to buy grain frantically, and even paid money for the people to buy grain, giving a benefit fee of 20 to 1, but all of them hit a wall, and the people obviously calculated it, and these tricks could not be played.

The people in the city have to use their household registration books to buy grain, and they are limited to two days' worth of grain according to the actual population of their families, and they are provided with grain according to the amount of gruel, and each household is clearly registered.

This trick is really amazing, blocking all the yin tricks of those gentry and heroes, making them so angry that they almost vomit blood, and these tricks are all made by Zhu Jian, and they are explained to the red master Lu Jiantong, and then he will explain to his subordinates to carry them out.

Even the official food supplied to the displaced people, especially when the grain is in and out of the warehouse and when it is cooked, it is also watched by the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, and a guy who is caught as a traitor will be credited, and he will be promoted to a certain level of merit, and there will be a bonus to take as an encouragement.

Zhu Jian has a radish in one hand, a stick in the other, and both grace and power, those Jinyiwei and Dongchang who are responsible for monitoring and supervising have to think carefully, whether they want silver or heads, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang are natural rivals, who looks at each other is not pleasing to the eye, supervise each other, who dares to come nonsense?

And the officials who dare to stretch out their black hands, once they are caught, they will correct the law on the spot and make an example of them, if the official position is high and the rank is high, Sun Chengzong will not be able to deal with it, and he will be taken over by Jinyiwei and sent to the edict for interrogation, don't want to come out of Jinyiwei's edict alive in this life, Zhu Jian's secret order to Lei Yin is to be killed directly, and it is light not to raid the house.

If the local officials are allowed to deal with it themselves, it is estimated that only a dozen or twenty catties of 100 catties of rice will be put into the pot, and the rest will be sold at a high price on the black market.

Of course, those black-hearted officials can only look at the mountains of grain and swallow their saliva, but after thinking about it in every possible way, they are honest, the punishment is too heavy, this kind of loss-making business is not cost-effective, and they do it stupidly, but they can hate the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang to death in their hearts, and they have to dig their ancestral graves to relieve their hatred, and this is what Zhu Jian wants, if Jinyiwei and Dongchang don't honestly hug his thighs, they will definitely die a miserable death.

Those gentry and heroes have failed in all kinds of bad tricks, but they will not stop there, cutting off people's financial routes is equivalent to killing their parents, they can only fight to keep their own one-third of an acre, one does not do, two endlessly, and sends people to pretend to be the people's army to rob the grain transportation team of the Red Gang.

This kind of thing is too risky, and it is impossible for everyone to know that those few well-connected non-bird factions secretly discussed, selected people, and made preparations.

And the big move in the mouths of Cao Wenzhao and Qin Wentao has already been prepared, and everyone from all walks of life has already taken place, just waiting for it to get dark before acting.

In the middle of the night, when the people who have been tired for a day fall asleep, black shadows emerge one after another in the woods far away from several granges, like ghosts at night, they carry the dead wind lanterns covered with black cloth, and walk carefully on the dirt roads in the countryside.

These black shadows are all the Guangping Army under Cao Wenzhao, and now they are pretending to be the people's army to do the business of stealing chickens and dogs, and the soldiers are all from poor families, just to eat with a mouthful of food, even if they can fill their stomachs, but lack of meat, nutrition is difficult to keep up, they basically suffer from night blindness, and they really can't walk at night without lights, but fortunately, Qin Wentao came up with the trick of using black cloth to cover the lights, which not only solved the big trouble of soldiers walking at night, but also avoided the light being too bright and exposing the target.

Cao Wenzhao sent a thousand soldiers to disguise themselves as civilian soldiers, in order to ensure safety, he was only divided into two teams, under the banner of Gao Yingxiang and Wang Jiayin, and sneaked into the two granges respectively.

There was originally a family member on patrol duty in the grange, but there was no accident in N years, and the family member in charge of the patrol had already fallen asleep in the grass, and the defense was useless.

However, there are pastoral dogs in the village, and when there is a slight disturbance, these pastoral dogs with a keen sense of smell all roar wildly, and they call the police very faithfully, but no one pays attention to it.

The reprimand, also known as the night does not collect, is responsible for infiltrating behind enemy lines to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and is generally composed of experienced veterans in the army, who hook the not-so-high wall with flying claws, climb up, and then throw in pieces of sick barbecue, those pastoral dogs rush up to grab food, and soon there is no sound.

The scouts crouched on the wall, carefully observing the situation in the village, and the soldiers outside the wall set up a wooden ladder to climb up the wall, and then pulled up the wooden ladder, put it inside the wall, and went down the ladder, swaggering into the village.

After taking control of the high point and the gate of the village, the scouts lowered the suspension bridge, opened the gate of the village, and let the companions gathered outside the village enter the village.
