0355 Execution
Liu Pingjiang suddenly sat down on the ground when he heard this, and seemed to have completely collapsed! And the people behind him cried and screamed, and it was a mess!
Liu Haojia ignored them, he turned to the Quanzhou officer who had a different look and had already walked out of the cell and said, "This officer knows that there are still some of you who are involved, but they haven't been exposed!" But this official can clearly tell you that this official does not want to pursue it any further! But if anyone can't think about it, there is still a lot of empty space in this cell! ”
Hearing this, everyone said in unison: "Thank you for the forgiveness of the young marshal, the lower officials and others know that they are wrong!" ”
Liu Haojia continued: "The official can not blame the past, but from today onwards, the official's orders must be implemented to the letter!" Then there are military salaries, fornicating with pirates, and responding to the local gentry, once they are discovered by the officials, the new accounts and old accounts will be counted together! ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, knowing that Liu Haojia would no longer pursue it, and they all said sincerely: "Xiaguan and others understand!" ”
Then Liu Haojia walked out, and said at the same time: "Although you have been released, it is not appropriate to show your face right now." This official has arranged a barracks next to it for you to live in temporarily, and when you have disposed of them, you will be reinstated! ”
Everyone was completely relieved when they heard this, and said in unison again: "Thank you, young marshal!" Congratulations to the young marshal! ”
When Liu Haojia walked away, these people stood up straight and looked at each other with surprise on their faces. I'm glad I escaped! Then he glanced at Liu Pingjiang and the others with pity, and went to rest as the soldiers came out of the prison.
The time was soon close to noon, and the front of the pier was already crowded! Almost half of the people in Quanzhou come here to see the excitement! There are even countless small merchants and hawkers selling in it, and they actually make this kind of execution look like a grand festival!
Just as the time was close to noon, the gate of the camp of the sailor battalion was opened, and a large number of soldiers poured out, dispersing the people blocking the road, and then another group of soldiers drove out a group of unkempt and shackled people! When the people saw these people, they immediately cheered, and some cursed loudly! Some people even threw stones, vegetable leaves and other debris, and these pirate leaders staggered! If it weren't for the soldiers to stop them, I'm afraid that these people would be killed before they could reach the execution platform!
Quanzhou is located by the sea, and the livelihood of the people is mostly related to the sea. On weekdays, these pirates do a lot of evil, and many people have died at the hands of pirates, and the people naturally hate them! Now I am of course very happy to see these people in a mess!
After a while, all these people were driven to the high platform and knelt down one by one, and the soldiers read aloud who these pirates were and what evil they had done! Every time a name is announced, there is a cheer among the people!
At this time, in the restaurant, Li Shusheng and the others all listened with bated breath to the names announced by the soldiers, and when an old man in a green shirt and an old man surnamed Zhao heard the names of the poison-eyed osprey and another pirate leader, they were obviously relieved! Especially the old man surnamed Zhao sighed again and again while being relieved, looking compassionate!
As noon came, after a cannon shot, a row of shirtless soldiers armed with broadswords walked up to the high platform, and it seemed that the leader was the man who had been entrusted with the task of beheading.
When they were on their feet, two soldiers on the platform took a pirate leader and knelt on the edge of the platform. The pirate leader probably knew he was going to die, and knelt there motionless! At this time, a soldier stepped forward with a big knife in his hand, looked at the position and slashed down, the head fell to the ground, and blood spurted out of Lao Gao!
The slashing soldier raised his foot and kicked the freshly cut head off the platform. Immediately under the high platform, a soldier rushed forward and tied his head to a bamboo pole and raised it high! When the people saw this, there was a huge cheer! The sound was so loud that almost half of Quanzhou City heard it!
Over time, more than forty pirates were decapitated and their heads were picked! The people who satisfied their desire for revenge were reluctant to leave. They were still talking loudly about what had just happened when they left! There are also some people who finally wait for the open space and start worshipping their dead relatives here, which shows the depth of resentment!
In the private room of the restaurant, Li Shusheng got up and closed the window and said, "It's so bloody, it's all here!" ”
The old man surnamed Zhao saw that the other two people were still worried, so he comforted and said: "You two rest assured, without the news of those two people, they should be safe and sound, they are probably looking for a place to hide!" ”
Zhang Liren also said: "Lao Zhao is right, no news at this time is the best news!" ”
One of them sighed and said, "It would be best if that were the case!" ”
Li Shusheng said: "Zhao Gong, what Zhang Gong said should be good!" However, we should still be careful, contact the prefect of Qian and other gentry as soon as possible to put pressure on him to leave as soon as possible, and at the same time dispel the change of defense between the north and the south! Otherwise, he left, but there is a group of northerners here, and it will be troublesome for me to wait for the goods to go in the future! ”
Zhang Liren nodded and said, "This is right!" According to the old man, you don't want to stay here for a long time, it's right to hurry up and contact the talents! ”
The old man surnamed Zhao nodded and said, "You said a human word this time!" Alright, let's go our separate ways. ”
At this time, Zhang Liren had no intention of confronting him, but just snorted and took the lead in getting up and saying goodbye to everyone. He had just left his seat and walked to the door to open it when he heard a knock on the door. He pulled the door and saw a middle-aged man standing outside the door, dressed as a servant.
When he recognized someone, he turned his head and said, "Lao Zhao, your family is looking for you!" ”
After speaking, he motioned for the middle-aged servant to enter the room. After he saluted everyone, the old man surnamed Zhao said in surprise: "How did you find here?" What's the matter? ”
The middle-aged servant bowed down and said, "Master, the sailor camp sent people out to urge the purchase of materials, and his attitude is very tough!" And the villain just received the news that many things on the market, including food, have increased in price! The villain sent someone to ask, saying that there are a lot of them sold today! And most of the people who go to buy goods everywhere today are not local accents, so the villain thinks that it should be the sailor who sent people out in civilian clothes to buy everywhere, and bought out all the things on the market! It looks like they're almost out of stock in their camp! ”
Several people were overjoyed when they heard this, especially Li Shusheng even laughed! Then he said, "That's a good thing! If those 10,000 people don't eat or drink, it only takes two or three days to make a fuss! Not to mention that there are still hundreds of ships parked on the sea, and I don't know how many people there are on them! I'm going to see how he changes his defense from north to south! ”
