Chapter 580 Action Day (3)

Although Haihan has taken over Danzhou for several months, there are still many local "die-hards" like Huang Zixing who are not willing to cooperate with Haihan. Although this attitude will not be disliked by others, if

If pirates are involved, everyone will avoid him.

When pirates attacked Danzhou, the city of Danzhou, which had complete city defenses, fell within half a day. This incident itself was very strange in the eyes of the local people. After the Haihan militia recaptured Danzhou, the answer was revealed - Danzhou

Many people inside and outside colluded with the pirates, and when the pirates attacked, they sold Danzhou City together.

During that time, the Haihan militia arrested hundreds of "traitors" in Danzhou. Although they did not end up killing many people, many people were indeed implicated in this incident and their families were sent to Nanyang - it is said that they were sent to Nanyang.

Going to Haihan to work as a coolie in the new ports opened by the Han people in Southeast Asia could save their lives, but all their family property was confiscated.

After that period, the locals in Danzhou became very sensitive to the crime of "colluding with pirates to cause rebellion." Almost everyone who was involved in this crime was quickly eliminated from Danzhou. And Zhang Xin was in

Today, on this occasion, Huang Zixing, the principal of Chung Ming Academy, was publicly accused of colluding with pirates. Onlookers did not bother to distinguish the truth from the false. Their first reaction was to keep a distance from Huang Zixing and put aside the relationship. However, Huang Zixing usually behaves alone and does not want to interact with other followers.

Haihan was in the academy where he worked, and no one took the initiative to speak up for him at this time.

At this time, someone came over and whispered something in Wang Tom's ear. Wang Tom nodded and announced loudly: "Everyone, there is no fire downstairs, and all the gangsters who tried to cause trouble have been subdued. This is in front of everyone.

, look at what these gangsters are!"

The guests who were originally uneasy because of the fire downstairs all calmed down now. Anyone with a hint of eyes could already see that the Haihan people did not just happen to create this scene today, but that they had come early.

Be prepared to take advantage of this occasion to deal with some people. Although they don't know what exactly is going on, most people present want to watch the fun.

Tom Wang snapped his fingers and ordered: "Bring in the criminal involved!"

Soon there was a sound at the top of the stairs. Soldiers from the Haihan Militia in gray military uniforms dragged up the tied prisoners one by one like dead dogs. Some of these people had their mouths gagged with rags, and some were already injured.

As he was dragged upstairs, the blood stains underneath his body left long traces on the floor, and he kept moaning in pain.

The last few people who were dragged up seemed to have died. The militiamen who dragged them hit the floor hard, but there was no response. Then the militiamen used the large trays used in the restaurant to hold a large plate of short knives and daggers.

Come up, and then a pile of oilcloths and matches.

"According to our investigation, we learned that Huang Zixing, the head of Zhongming Academy, has been planning to attack local government agencies in Danzhou since last year and assassinate government dignitaries in order to cooperate with South China Sea pirates to attack Danzhou again." Wang Tom pointed to the man lying on the floor.

The prisoner on the board said: "Are several of these people from Zhongming Academy? Huang Zixing, please don't tell everyone, you don't know them."

Huang Zixing had naturally recognized the people from his academy for a long time, but he still dared to admit it at this time. He could only keep denying it: "Although there are people from my academy, I didn't know that they would do such lawless things."

This fact has nothing to do with me!"

Tom Wang snorted coldly: "Do you think you can protect yourself by selling these students? You don't even think about how we found out your details! Here is the pass!"

Zhang Qianzhi appeared at the stairs calmly, bowed to the main table first, and then cupped his hands towards the stunned Huang Zixing, and then introduced himself: "I am Zhang Qianzhi, who works for the Haihan Security Department.

Specially responsible for investigating cases of collusion between civilians and pirates in Qiongzhou. A month ago, I claimed to be a scholar from Leizhou and went to Zhongming Academy to register as a student. During this period, I found out that the suspect Huang Zixing and others intended to assassinate local officials, and

I colluded with the remnants of pirates and made corresponding preparations. I and five other people from the academy were dispatched by Huang Zixing. Today they are responsible for setting fire to this restaurant to create chaos and create opportunities for other assassins to assassinate Lord Yan, Director Zhang and other important people. As for what happens next.

Everyone knows the matter now."

The guests present were in an uproar. Although they were not all willing to accept the current situation in Danzhou, they would not use such force to fight against the government. What's more, Huang Zixing was not trying to overthrow Haihan's local rule.

Instead, they want to collude with pirates to harm the local area, which seems to be on the opposite side of public interests.

"Huang Zixing, do you have anything else to defend yourself?" Wang Tom asked, looking at Huang Zixing, with a mocking expression on his face.

Huang Zixing raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Qianzhi, but he could no longer say a complete sentence: "You... you..."

"If you want others to be unaware, you have to do it yourself. Mr. Huangshan, you think you are doing these things without knowing it, but you don't know that we have been monitoring you as early as last year, but we have never obtained real evidence of your evil deeds.

." Zhang Qianzhi said calmly: "Looking at you, a scholar, you actually colluded with pirates to harm the countryside for your own personal gain. Have you read all the great principles written in this book into the dog's belly?"

Huang Zixing almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He really didn't expect that this traveling scholar who took the initiative to come to seek advice was actually a lackey of the Haihan people. Moreover, the purpose of coming to Zhongming Academy was to set a trap. Otherwise, how could he still be there?

He was talking nonsense here, accusing Zhongming Academy of colluding with pirates. It was obvious that he had just met Mr. Zhao of the imperial court just this morning.

Zhang Qianzhi did not mention the involvement of officials from the Ming Dynasty. It was obvious that Haihan had planned to frame him from the beginning. If Huang Zixing now wanted to confess that this was actually an action organized by officials from the Ming Dynasty, he would probably not be able to comply.

——After all, he has no way to prove that the so-called Ming officials were involved. Even if the Haihan people capture Zhao Ye, they probably will not admit the existence of this person.

Huang Zixing knew that he had fallen into a pit, and the consequences would be quite serious, but there was no chance of saving his life. There was at least one person present who could pull him out of the pit. Huang Zixing looked at the main table with hope.

, now the only person who can protect him is sitting there. As long as the other party is willing to take action, he believes that he will at least have a chance to escape from this matter.

"Master Yan, what do you think about this matter?" Zhang Xin deliberately asked Yan Mingjun as if he felt Huang Zixing's eyes asking for help.

Yan Mingjun was also in a mess at this time. When Tom Wang announced that all the gangsters had been captured, all his previous delusions were thrown out of the window, and the remaining thought was how to clean himself out of this matter.

Not to be implicated. Zhang Xin had already said hello to him before, and as long as he cooperated in his attitude, he would be able to safely complete his term in Danzhou. But how could he cooperate in this attitude? Before that, he had

No clue at all.

It wasn't until Zhang Xin asked him a question that Yan Mingjun suddenly realized that the Haihan people had already set up a ladder for themselves. If they wanted to shirk all their responsibilities, they could only use Huang Zixing as a stepping stone.

Got it!

Yan Mingjun stood up slowly, coughed twice to clear his throat, and then said: "Since I took office this month, I have seen a peaceful scene in Danzhou. The contribution of everyone in Haihan should be the greatest. I

The officials were also thinking about writing to the court in the near future to express their merits and ask for rewards, but they did not expect that there was still an undercurrent surging in Danzhou. Such thieves were determined to cause trouble, and they even wanted to assassinate the court officials on this occasion and disrupt Danzhou.

order……"

When Yan Mingjun said this, he heard a "pop" sound. He turned his head and looked over, only to see that Huang Zixing had fainted to the ground in despair. At that moment, two militiamen came over and grabbed his legs directly, holding him upside down.

Drag him to the stairs and place him with the captured criminals.

Yan Mingjun coughed dryly and continued: "For these lawless people, I think the way Haihan everyone dealt with it is extremely appropriate. These thieves who make trouble should be dealt with strictly and quickly! Before I came to Danzhou to take up my post,

He has been authorized by the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Mr. Wang, to act arbitrarily and expeditiously. In my opinion, after the charges are confirmed, he should be executed as soon as possible to eliminate the banditry in Danzhou!"

In order to be able to escape, Yan Mingjun did not care about the legal system. According to the Ming Dynasty Law, in principle, the death penalty must be reviewed and approved by the Ministry of Punishment, reviewed by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, reviewed by the Dali Temple, and finally approved by the three judicial departments.

After a circle is drawn on the list, the approval document is sent back to the local government for the so-called post-autumn execution. Of course, the local government also has room for emergency deeds, such as the suppression of bandits. It is impossible to capture them all alive until the trial is completed.

After that, he was kept in prison and waited for the approval of the court before killing him. Moreover, when the Haihan militia "recovered" Qiongbei, they also killed many people in the name of suppressing bandits, and this process did not go through any public trial.

Yan Mingjun's answer obviously made Zhang Xin very satisfied. He nodded and said: "Master Yan is the parent officer of Danzhou. Since you have already expressed your attitude, we will handle it accordingly. This case will be temporarily handed over to the Ministry of Security.

The trial will be held, and after the trial is over, notices of peace of mind will be posted everywhere in the city, and all the criminals who should be executed will be executed together at that time. Master Yan, what do you think?"

Yan Mingjun responded: "What Director Zhang said makes sense. Since the case is being investigated and handled by Haihan, he is also familiar with the case, so it should be tried by your case handling personnel. I think there is nothing wrong with this move, even

Good, very good!”

Yan Mingjun really rubbed his face and put it in his pocket. Zhang Xin's statement simply used the Danzhou government as a decoration. He only wanted to arrest people, and even took away the job of trial and execution. This is fundamental

He would not give face to the state government. However, Yan Mingjun did not dare to refute Zhang Xin's words, because it was difficult for him to ensure that another so-called witness would jump out at the next moment and testify face to face that he was actually in cahoots with Huang Zixing and others.

Dang. Looking at Zhang Xin's smiling expression, Yan Mingjun really couldn't muster the courage to take this risk.

"Everyone, this case is not over yet." Wang Tom took over the conversation again and announced: "According to our investigation of the case, the pirate remnants that harmed Qiongbei last time were not the only ones captured today. In fact, in

There are still many of their accomplices lurking inside and outside Danzhou City, waiting for them to mobilize in all directions after they succeed here and take Danzhou again. But there is no need to panic, we have already made comprehensive arrangements for this.

And their locations and identities have been identified. While everyone was enjoying the banquet just now, the Haihan Militia has launched simultaneous operations in many prefectures and counties throughout the Qiongbei region to comprehensively arrest these pirate remnants and local spies.

.Everyone can rest assured that as long as the Haihan Militia is stationed in Danzhou, it will definitely maintain local security and ensure that everyone can live a stable life!"

"Okay! General Wang said it well!" As soon as Wang Tom finished speaking, some quick-reacting people in the banquet immediately responded.

Those who were a little slow to react immediately realized that this was a good opportunity for Brush to flatter him. Flattery and admiration arose everywhere, and some literati present even wanted to compose poems on the spot and sing praises for Haihan's "righteous deed". Of course, some people saw that they had already

Being robbed of the opportunity, he immediately found another way and quickly flattered Zhang Xin - General Wang was just an official who came to Danzhou temporarily to catch pirates, but Director Zhang was in charge, so he had to find the right person to flatter him.

Only talents can achieve good results.

However, during this process, everyone seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally ignored the two civil and military officials sent by the imperial court to take charge of Danzhou, and no one even said a word of praise to them. Although Yan Mingjun felt that he was a little embarrassed, in fact, he was okay in his heart.

Understand what these people are doing - in front of the Haihan people, who would flatter them at this time?

Zhang Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered people to take away a group of prisoners, and then asked the kitchen to prepare dishes quickly, and re-arranged the banquet and served wine to calm the frightened local distinguished guests. This move naturally did not work.

People objected. Those present wished that the banquet could last longer so that they could have more opportunities to get close to big names like Hai Han. Maybe Director Zhang would like him and get something from Hai Han this year.

Agents of goods in short supply accidentally make a lot of money. Compared with the considerable amount of money, saying a few soft words on such occasions is not a big deal.

As for the captured Huang Zixing and others, no one cares about their life or death. Losers are losers, and the only outcome is to be swept into the garbage heap of history.
Chapter completed!
