At this time, the content of Liu Haojia's decree had spread among the surrounding people. Everyone knew that Zhang Jingping had been promoted from earl to marquis! Moreover, Zhang Jingping had a good reputation in Datong Town, so the people watching the excitement congratulated him one after another.
The time is extremely lively!
There were only a few people in the crowd who either sneered or shook their heads and sighed, probably trying to understand the reasons behind the incident. But there were too few such sober people!
Seeing the behavior of the people around him, Zhang Jingping secretly hated Liu Haojia! He hated him for reading the imperial edict in public, letting everyone know that the emperor and the court were very kind to Zhang Jingping. If he caused anything else, no one would be able to do it.
The label of being loyal or unfilial will be slapped on his head immediately!
When the time comes, there will be no one to help him. Maybe there will be an endless stream of people who will add insult to injury! But at this time, Liu Haojia took a step forward and said with squinted eyes: "Why, are you still not accepting the order?"
Zhang Jingping knew that if he hesitated any longer, Liu Haojia might be charged with disrespecting the imperial edict first, and he might be arrested on the spot by the Jin Yiwei! So he could only hold back the sadness in his heart, stood up and took the edict with both hands.
.
Unexpectedly, this action triggered huge cheers from the people around him! Many people who felt that their status was enough even congratulated him from a distance. It is estimated that the news spread throughout the city in just one stick of incense! This made Zhang Jingping wishful in his heart.
It would be better to kill these people!
However, he still wanted to save the situation, so he lowered his status and said: "Also, why not go into the city and go to Xiaguan's place to have a rest!"
But Liu Haojia put his hands behind his back and said: "There are still people who came here to announce the edict. Now that the court's arrangements have been completed, there will be no more left! But I would like to remind you that there is a time limit in the imperial edict! And where is Mr. Qi?
I've already sent someone to notify you, and it will arrive in about ten days, so you'd better take care of yourself!"
After Liu Haojia finished speaking, he didn't even enter the city gate, but mounted his horse and led the team to turn around and leave. Zhang Jingping looked at Liu Haojia's back with mixed emotions in his heart! But what he was sure of was that what he regretted most was breaking the agreement with Liu Haojia! Now he was
Liu Haojia turned back and ruined the future of the entire family! I am afraid that at this time, he wanted to die!
Just when everyone thought Liu Haojia had turned back to the capital, they didn't expect that the team walked a certain distance, merged with three people on the roadside, then went off the official road and rushed directly to a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Datong Town!
If Qian Shounian were here, he would be shocked! Because the people stationed in the Zhuangzi under his name are a group of swordsmen and salt lords he invited! And Liu Haojia led people straight to this Zhuangzi, it is definitely not
I plan to have a good chat with them!
Although the team led by Liu Haojia had marched a long distance, they were still in high spirits. With someone leading the way, they headed straight for the target. Finally, they got close to the target in the evening!
And those salt lords felt that no one around them could do anything to them. In addition, they themselves were a rabble, so they didn't even have a sentry, so they didn't even realize that they were surrounded!
Seeing that the encirclement was set up, Liu Haojia waved his hand for the soldiers to rush in. Officers at all levels who had been waiting for a long time saw this and immediately led the soldiers to rush in along the Zhuangzi intersection. Other Jinyi guards cooperated with a small number of soldiers to roam around the outside, so as to block the possibility of encirclement.
A fish that slipped through the net!
But one Zhuangzi was too small for hundreds of soldiers. They just blocked all the intersections before rushing in. It was impossible for anyone to escape!
The first officer who rushed into Zhuangzi led his men to block the intersection in front of him, and then began to search door to door. Because Liu Haojia had promised not to accidentally injure the people as much as possible, they did not plan to shoot with firecrackers easily, and they were all good.
After using their bayonets, they began to tighten the encirclement.
These soldiers had received strict training in street fighting. They rushed to the door of a house, kicked open the door, protected their bodies with bayonets, and rushed in! The people in the yard didn't know what was happening.
Seeing a large group of soldiers rushing in with bayonets drawn, they were all scared out of their wits! Then they were pushed to the ground one by one! 33??qxs??.????m
Moreover, when Liu Haojia brought his people here, it was just after dinner time. Many salt lords were eating in the rooms assigned to stay, so they were completely trapped in the room now!
When a large group of soldiers entered the village, the noise could not be suppressed, so these salt owls were quickly alerted! When they heard something was wrong outside, they immediately grabbed their knives and rushed out! However, the villagers in the yard had already been dragged to the edge of the courtyard wall, and the people who greeted them were
It’s a dense bayonet!
The first salt owl who rushed out was stabbed in the chest and abdomen by three bayonets before he could swing his knife! He immediately fell to the ground without saying a word!
The three salt owls at the back who were holding knives did not dare to rush out when they saw that their companion was dead. Instead, they confronted the soldiers through the door. Moreover, they saw that the fire blunderbuss in the soldiers' hands was very long, and they thought it must be working inside the room.
It doesn't work, so as long as we lure them into the room, we might be able to fight back!
But just then they heard the sound of splintering wood! It turned out that other soldiers in the yard had smashed the windows! They looked into the room and shouted loudly: "There is no one else in the room, just the four of them!"
"
Because the soldiers had been instructed in advance not to accidentally injure civilians as much as possible, the soldiers were very cautious about shooting! But now that they heard the news from their companions, they knew that there was no risk in shooting, so the soldiers blocking the door immediately fired their guns!
The gunpowder was preloaded and fired immediately, so as long as the soldiers pulled the trigger, the lid on the medicine tank would open, the flint and the gear collided, and the sparks ignited the gunpowder in the medicine tank, and the gunpowder
I started in an instant!
The three Salt Owls had no room to dodge in such a narrow room, so in the blink of an eye the three were beaten to death by lead bullets fired from outside the door and windows! Then the soldiers rushed in and searched the room, giving
The three of them each took a stab and rushed to the next yard!
At the same time, soldiers rushed in from the yard next door. There were only five people busy in the yard of this family. They saw the soldiers rushing into the yard, and before they could react, they were knocked to the ground by the soldiers!
The officer first directed the soldiers to guard the room, then pulled the oldest farmer and said loudly: "Are there any outsiders living in your house?"
The old man was so frightened that he couldn't speak. He could only shake his head desperately, but his meaning was expressed clearly enough. When the officer saw this, he felt relieved. He raised his hand and two soldiers kicked open the door and rushed in.
