Chapter 84: Wang Hongcai colluded with horse bandits
"Without them, can you stand here alive? No! I don't know how many wives, children and children will die tragically at the hands of horse bandits."
"So they should be remembered, we should help them take care of their wives, children, and children, and we should give preferential treatment to their children."
"They are called martyrs!" Jiang Yang smoothly took the booklet from Li's right hand.
Opening it slowly, each page is very painful.
"In the battle of New Countryside, forty-eight people were killed! 236 people were seriously injured and 438 people were slightly injured." Jiang Yang said word by word, and every word represented pain.
"Zhang Xingjun! He was twenty-one years old, and there were two elderly people at home. The child was less than three years old! He bravely killed the enemy in the battle to defend the new countryside, beheaded three of the enemy's heads, and died tragically at the hands of horse thieves."
"Liu Er, nineteen years old, was supposed to get married to his fiancée next month, but he died in a battle with horse bandits. Before his death, he seriously wounded five enemies and killed four!"
"Li Rongcang..."
Jiang Yang was reading from the notebook he had prepared. Behind the ordinary words were living lives, and behind them were broken families.
Many family members of the martyrs also came here, lowered their heads, covered their faces and cried.
However, they admired Jiang Yang more and more in their hearts. If in the past, their own people died in battle, it was just a mute eating Coptis chinensis at home. What about now?
The county magistrate actually held such a grand event for a grassroots like himself. If his men...if he could see it under Jiuquan, he would probably feel at ease.
After receiving this county magistrate, what else can I ask for? I just pray that God can make the county magistrate well.
Jiang Yang read word by word very slowly, but no one was impatient. They were all listening quietly. A few words of indignation and a few vague cries could be heard.
Jiang Yang was not impatient. As time passed little by little, everyone recognized the name on the stone tablet, but they would rather not know it in this way.
They wonder if if they had been braver, this would not have happened.
Originally, this battle did not injure so many people, but... Na Dianshi at the county government office was still very fierce in the battle. After a fierce battle, he actually suffered the most damage in the entire new rural defense battle.
At this time, Jiang Yang waved his hand. Some people came up, and surprisingly they were those who were seriously injured. Some of them were still on stretchers, wrapped like mummies, and some of them were seriously injured and became disabled.
Their faces were pale, and when they raised their heads and looked at everyone, the corners of their mouths were slightly raised.
Jiang Yang didn't let them talk and asked the doctors to escort them to the new county government office.
"They can't forget!" Jiang Yang stood on the stage and said with high spirits, "The county government will be responsible for the rest of their lives."
"Everyone who died in this heroic battle! Take the lead in allocating new rural houses and hang the Martyrs' Home on the door to show your glory!"
"To all those who were injured in heroic killings this time! The second batch will be allocated fertile land and houses, and a hero's home plaque will be hung! To show the glory!"
"All the people who contribute to the construction of the new countryside will be allocated houses and fertile land in the third batch! I, Li You, am here to guarantee to you that all those who are committed to the new countryside and work here will be allocated houses and fertile land. However,
Come in turn."
Jiang Yang said and asked Li Youshang to make arrangements. Of course, it was not on-site room allocation. With so many people, it would be impossible to handle things later today.
Naturally, Li You would tell you where to start with the specific allocation of houses, who to claim your house, what procedures are required, when to give them the title deed, and how to divide the fertile land.
How to implement it, etc.
Although it sounds very simple, Li You wasted half an hour to clarify this for everyone.
The matter has basically come to an end here, but Jiang Yang cannot be like this. He must draw a big picture before the chaos breaks out.
Ah, bah, what does painting a cake mean? You have taken action and done what you said, right?
What is this called? It leads the people to look forward to the future.
Jiang Yang walked onto the stage, thinking about what he wanted to say. When autumn comes on September 8th, he will be on stage...
After we wait for this to stabilize, we will find you a job. When the money comes, it will be delicious, fun, and useful. You can spend your money and call us all your seven aunts and eight aunts.
Let me increase the population. Jiang Yang was still thinking happily, should he tell them now that the liquor factory and sugar factory are recruiting workers, and that the blacksmith shop that will be available soon will also be recruiting workers.
While I was still thinking happily, I heard a commotion outside.
Jiang Yang was still a little surprised, calling him? Now is not a good time to take action.
Before Jiang Yang could say anything, he saw the two brothers from the Liu family rushing forward in a hurry.
Liu Chuanyi was sitting in the wheelchair with a sad look on his face, and Liu Chuanxin was pushing the chair behind him with an angry look on his face.
"Sir, I have something to report!" Liu Chuanyi held a thick stack of paper in his hand and said with a very serious face: "Sir, your righteous deeds are known all over the world. You have dedicated yourself to Xiami County and died. We admire you very much. This time the horse thieves have caused chaos.
, I am also very sad that the martyrs died heroically in battle."
"But I unexpectedly learned something. Someone in Xiami County actually colluded with the horse bandits! This attack on the new rural area was entirely his revenge. It was him who caused so many of our deaths in the battle!"
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was shocked!
The family members of the martyrs stood at the front, holding young children and supporting the elderly at home. When they heard this, their legs became weak and they fell to the ground.
They can accept that their men died heroically in battle with the enemy, but they cannot accept that they were assassinated, or that someone colluded with horse bandits to seek wealth and death!
The people watching all rolled up their sleeves.
Bastard!
Jiang Yang felt happy in his heart. He originally thought that Liu Chuanxin would have the guts to reveal that the king was bullying the people and wasting human lives, but he didn't expect that a shocking news came to him.
Since you dare to explode, how can I not accept it?
Jiang Yang said with a gloomy face: "Who is it? He actually colluded with the horse bandits and harmed the people! He deserves to be punished for his crime. Say! Who is it! I will definitely report it to the court and destroy his entire family!"
Jiang Yang was very angry every word he spoke.
Liu Chuanxin clenched his fists, handed the document over and said, "Sir! It's Wang Hongcai!"
"The people in Xiami County also call him Wang Yuanwai. I have letters here about his collusion with the horse bandits. He said that the people no longer farmed the land for him, but came here to reclaim wasteland to show the people some color.
.”
"He also said that your opening of warehouses to provide disaster relief and build new rural areas hindered his plans to make a fortune, so he wanted to kill you too."
"Moreover, over the past few years, the king has oppressed the people, disregarded human life, and seized property. His crime will never be forgiven even if he is killed! God will hate you even if you see him!"
"These are the blood and tears of the common people. I hope the county magistrate can give an explanation to the martyrs who died in the war, to the people who longed for the new countryside, to the merchants who suffered from the horse bandits in Xishan, and to Xiami County.
