Because everything happened too quickly, the mountain bandits who were entrenched here basically understood what was going on because they were stubbornly resistant, and the others who were still at a loss were tied up and gathered in an open space.

It was not in vain that Cui Xihao had trained for the past few days, and the county soldiers who participated in the battle for the first time were intact except for a few who were slightly injured, and this time the suppression of bandits was a complete victory.

"Phew!" The three masters who were tied up were still unconvinced, and scolded: "Dog officer! What kind of hero is a sneak attack, I have the ability to let go of grandpa, and I will do it again! ”

Wang Hang, who is usually weak and weak, was rarely angry, and went up and unceremoniously gave the third master a kick.

"What kind of face do you have!" Wang Hang kicked and scolded: "Have you ever thought about those ordinary people who were looted and killed by you? ”

There is no other reason, during the period of Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu's "disappearance", the gang of the three masters was still unscrupulous, and once they even harassed near the county seat, and were seen by the sentry on the city gate and reported to Wang Hang.

After that, Cui Xihao took a team of people and Wang Hang to rush to the village, but unfortunately it was still a step too late.

By the time they arrived, the three leaders had already left, and the entire village was engulfed in flames, and the corpses of the rebellious villagers were scattered on the ground.

The smell of burnt wood, the smell of burnt straw mixed with the smell of burnt human flesh, Wang Hang, who saw this scene for the first time, crawled aside with a "wow" and vomited, and then had a nightmare for half a month.

Wang Hang recalled that scene, the force under his feet became heavier and heavier, and the screams of the three masters became more and more harsh, and in the end, Xiao Qishu couldn't stand it, so he let the two county soldiers pull people away.

With more than 200 mountain bandits, he returned to Kushui County.

When the refugees who were building the camp heard that the county soldiers had returned triumphantly, they all came to both sides of the road, and some of them didn't even know where to get the rotten leaves.

"You brutes! Give me back my life! ”

"Brute! God has eyes! ”

The people cursed and smashed the rotten vegetable leaves at the mountain bandits.

The cells in Kushui County were not large, and more than 200 people were packed.

As for the three leaders of the bandits and some small leaders, Wang Hang decided to openly interrogate them in front of all the people to set an example.

The three were immediately escorted to the county government with heavy wooden flails and shackles, while the rest of the small leaders were handcuffed and shackled.

Standing on both sides of the heavily armed officials, Xiao Qishu temporarily acted as the master, Cui Ximiao sat on the left side of the county order, and Song Qingyou and Cheng Yuxi stood behind him to watch the excitement.

Syllable!

As soon as the hall was shocked, Wang Hang shouted: "The prisoner in the hall has reported his name." ”

Liao San, the third master, was picked up since he was a child, and he has been growing up in Qingfeng Village, and the two of them are also taken care of as if he were his own brother, so his personality is also very perverse, and he always feels that he is the eldest and his second, except for the big boss, he has never been afraid of anyone.

Therefore, when the big boss passed away, he had a crooked mind and wanted to control the entire Qingfeng Village.

Now that Cui Xihao has uprooted the basis he has relied on for many years with lightning speed, he finally has a little fear.

"Villain Zhangmu." This is the one who led people to harass Qingfeng Village that day, and he looked like a roe deer, but he was also a person like his name.

"The villain Liao San is the third master of Qingfeng Village."

"You bastard!" A scolding voice came from the gate of the county ya, "You are doing such evil, Hugh wants to pull Qingfeng Village!" "It turned out to be the second master who came to get the news.

Liao San turned his head when he heard this, and his eyes were red when he saw Ran Ji, "Second brother, I know it's wrong!" ”

Knowing that he regretted his death, Song Qingyou sneered, "Crocodile tears." ”

"Quiet!" Wang Hang was shocked again, "The criminal Liao San, entangled in the mountain bandits, burning, killing and looting crimes, after rough estimates, looted three villages such as Zhaojia Village, and robbed hundreds of passing merchants in the first-line valley, can you have any objections to this matter?" ”

"I ...... I'm all bewitched! It's all him! Liao San pointed to Zhang Mu on the side as he spoke, "It's what he said is the point of living a poor life in Qingfeng Village, it's better to find some money." ”

"Big brother, you!" Zhang Mu didn't seem to expect this to be the case, and he couldn't say anything for a while.

Wang Hang already hated Liao San and them, but now he is such a person who dares to do it, his heart is even more disgusted, and his tone is gradually dissatisfied, "This official asked you if you did it!" ”

This cannot be relied on in any case, not to mention the more than 200 people who are still in prison, even many people present have seen him do evil.

"Yes." In desperation, Liao San could only admit it.

Wang Hang glanced at Xiao Qishu, and the other party nodded slightly, "You can take a look at this confession, if there is no objection, sign it." ”

A servant stepped forward to put the confession written by Xiao Qishu in front of Liao San, and there was pen and ink and red clay on the side.

The evidence was conclusive, Ran Ji was not moved by the bitter meat plan, Liao San naturally knew that there was no hope of getting rid of the crime, so he simply signed and drew the charge without looking at it.

The official put the confession on Wang Hang's table, and he read: "The prisoner Liao San, entangled in the ploppy occupation of the mountain as the king, burned and looted the people and passing merchants several times, burned and looted all kinds of evil, and now the evidence is conclusive and confesses, according to the law, he should be sentenced to beheading, and he will be executed in a few days. ”

"Good!"

"The county lord is wise!"

The onlookers erupted in cheers.

Liao San knelt down in the lobby in despair, while Ran Ji left silently with red eyes.

As for Zhang Mu, because he was an accomplice, he was sentenced to Qiong, and then sent to the border pass to build the city wall for ten years, and the rest of the minions were sentenced to Qiong, sent to the border pass and beaten according to the severity of the crime.

At this point, the bandit problem in Kushui County has been completely solved.

Since the food problem was solved, the development of Kushui County has been getting better and better, and now there have been restaurants, inns, silk and other shops in the county, and there are gradually more merchants.

As soon as Wang Hang took office, he solved such a major event, he was the east, and invited Song Qingyou and others to a banquet in the newly opened restaurant in the county seat.

He took the lead in picking up a glass of wine, got up and said: "This is the first time I have gone to work in a field since the middle of the day, and I am grateful to you for taking care of Wang Hang during this period of time!" "Drink it all.

For this young man who has just come out of the Hanlin Academy and is ignorant of the world, whether it is Song Qingyou, Xiao Qishu or Cui Xihao, they all have a mentality of guiding the younger generations.

Fortunately, Wang Hang is also angry, has been conscientious and dedicated, and accepts guidance with an open mind, and will be a rare good official in time.

It stands to reason that Cui Xihao should have returned to Beijing at the end of the county order's death case, but now that he has stayed for so long, he really can't delay it, so today's meal has also become a send-off banquet.
