0589 The storm is coming
And just when everyone was discussing for a few days and still had no clue, there was a fight outside Tianjin, which soon spread all over Tianjin! The reason is said to be that the people of the River Gang blocked the people of the Cangzhou Gang who came to spy on the news, so there was a fight outside the city.
The Cangzhou Gang is also a gang like the River Gang, and they all rely on waterways for their livelihood. And the size of the two sides is about the same, so although there is some small friction between the two sides, it is always controlled in a small range. And the gangs on both sides will never get close to the core area of the other party until they have to do so, and this time the Cangzhou gang can actually touch the periphery of Tianjin, it seems that there are major changes!
Just when there were different opinions, there were several weapons fights in the city in a row! The scale is not large, but the rumors that come out are the same, it is the people of the Cangzhou Gang who have come to test the success of the River Gang! If the River Gang can't resist it, they will attack it in a big way and drive the River Gang out!
There was a little commotion among the people when they heard the news! Because they feel that the current days are very good and they don't want any change at all. But then news came that the River Gang had begun to look for the former gang members with the old roster and let them rejoin the gang.
But they didn't force those who left, they just persuaded them repeatedly. But now these people have their own livelihoods. Getting paid more than before, and not being pumped, is naturally unwilling. So the matter is over. But the discount made the people worried!
Just more than ten days after Liu Haojia left, two major events happened in Tianjin! The first big thing is that the people left by Liu Haojia began to be taxed normally! The number of tax collectors is small, but the action is very orderly, and the grate of street by street has indeed collected a lot of silver and copper coins!
However, the small traders who had been worried found that they did not charge much silver, which was quite reasonable. At least there were a lot less than those who were blackmailed by those splashes and servants before, so they put their hearts in their stomachs.
The second thing is that there were many armed fights outside the city that morning, and the two sides of the armed fighting were the people of the River Gang and the Cangzhou Gang! Moreover, the people of the River Gang obviously suffered a loss, and they all shrank in the city and no longer came out.
According to the news uploaded on the street, this time the people of the River Gang were beaten very badly, one by one they broke their heads and bled out, and many people were carried back, I am afraid that they will suffer a big loss!
And in the afternoon, some Cangzhou Gang people appeared in the dock warehouse area and other locations, openly declaring that this place will be taken over by the Cangzhou Gang in the next few days, and all those who do river transportation and shipping must obey their management, and they will also pump water!
Many of those who worked were originally members of the River Gang, and they were fierce in themselves, so they naturally refused to agree, so some skirmishes broke out between the two sides. But then the Cangzhou gang withdrew.
Although these people eventually withdrew, the impact was great! Some people in Tianjin and its surroundings are panicking. At this time, the people felt how peaceful it was for Marquis Wu Ning and his army to be in Tianjin!
But the next day, things took a complicated turn! On the first day, the tax collectors were relatively smooth in collecting taxes from the peddlers, but today it has become more difficult to collect the merchants!
The merchant with a good attitude accompanied by a smiling face said that the silver is not enough today, and it must be made up within two or three days. Those who have a bad attitude directly shouted and shouted, saying that there has never been a rule for collecting taxes in Tianjin, and your lord can't collect taxes. What's even worse is that they won't even let the door in! The tax collectors argued a few words, but in the end they could only leave with hatred.
By the afternoon, there was a new change in the city! That is, the people of the Cangzhou Gang actually entered the city and fought with the people of the River Gang! The fight between the two sides is very fierce, and it is obvious that the people of the River Gang are invincible! Quite a few people were carried back, their heads covered in blood!
Because Sun County Ling was imprisoned in the prison and no one presided over it, the county Cheng suddenly fell ill again, and the entire county government was leaderless! The officers also seemed to sense the coming storm, and they were grinding to do things one by one. It is often after the two sides have fought for a long time that they cower and rush to the scene, and then disappear after a circle!
And there were rumors that night that there was something wrong with Master Hou! The River Gang has been very effective in maintaining local law and order over the years, but it has been targeted by the Hou Ye, and it has become worse day by day! Now Tianjin has been invaded by other gangs
, I'm afraid that there will be chaos in Tianjin for a while!
In the following days, the whole city of Tianjin began to become chaotic, petty theft increased countless times, not to mention, there were many splashes from other places rampant inside and outside Tianjin, eating for nothing, extortion, doing everything, but trying to turn Tianjin into their own territory!
And there was one of the largest clashes, with more than 200 people! The conflict first started near the dock, and it seems that the Cangzhou Gang wants to seize control of the dock, and the River Gang is blocking it!
But the Cangzhou Gang is overwhelming, and the people of the River Gang retreat step by step! At this time, the people in the river gang asked for help from their former companions, who are now working on the docks! Those who asked for help were in the way of the face of their acquaintances, and some people went out of the field to punch, and as a result, they were involved!
But you still haven't saved the River Gang's defeat! The two sides fought until they reached the city, until the River Gang retreated to the vicinity of their main altar and held their ground!
In this fight, the inspectors of the dock were also involved! Originally, they wanted to admit that they were living on both sides, but they were inexplicably mistaken for opponents by both sides, and were attacked by both sides at the same time! As a result, many people were injured, and the injuries were more serious!
When they finally counted, they found that they were not seriously injured or killed, but they really wanted to recuperate for ten days and half a month! As a result, Liu Haojia's armed forces left in the local area were completely emptied!
Then it was calm for a day, but all kinds of complaints about Liu Haojia were very loud! "It's not as good as when the River Gang was there, but it attracted foreign gangs!"
"The money that those tax collectors collected for the first time was just to fool the court, and they should be their own when they collect the money again!"
Some people even say that Liu Haojia designed to imprison Sun County's order and forced the county to pretend to be sick, the purpose is to mess up the already made, so that it seems that Tianjin can't do without him!
There are many other strange rumors circulating, which make people in and out of the city panic! Even the surrounding villages have been affected! The village chiefs of each village organized young people to start patrolling along the village, as if they were coming in!
