The soldiers obeyed Zhu Shiyong's orders mechanically, carrying hay and firewood from the nearby pile of firewood and piling them around the main hall. When they piled up to a certain amount, Zhu Shiyong gave the order and the fire burned him. (.
Su Jin was so anxious that he wondered whether he should take everyone out and rush out. He couldn't just let others burn his dozens of people alive.
Dynasty Mahan rushed out several times and kicked the firewood piled near the hall door all over the floor, but everyone knew that this would not help; they did not dare to leave the hall door too far and fall into the enemy's trap alone.
The consequence of the crowd is that no matter how powerful you are, you can't get out of it. You can only act in a hurry, but there is no good strategy.
Su Jin's eyes wandered over the figures of the officers and soldiers who were busy stacking firewood. Suddenly his eyes met the eyes of a person. That person was none other than Liu Dalang, the deputy warehouse chief whom he met at the temple fair that day; Liu Dalang and
When Su Jin's eyes met, he quickly lowered his head, put down a handful of firewood, turned around and walked away quickly, looking helpless.
Su Jin's heart moved. It seemed that these soldiers and government officials were all forced to have no choice. If they forced their way out today, there would be many casualties. Since things have reached this point, we can only treat dead horses as living horses. Zhu Shiyong
Even the commander of the Baoxin Army was killed. This move must have caused a great shock in the hearts of the soldiers. It was better to do some work while the fire was not lit. Once the fire started, they would have no choice but to fight hard.
"Brothers of the Xiang soldiers and brothers of the government officials in Luzhou Prefecture, you are making a big mistake, do you know that?" In the silence, Su Jin suddenly shouted loudly.
Zhu Shiyong grinned proudly and cursed softly: "This guy still doesn't admit it, he is still thinking of weird ideas." Then he shouted: "Move quickly, burn this guy to death earlier, everyone go back and rest earlier,
Don't listen to this guy's nonsense."
Su Jin ignored Zhu Shiyong and shouted to himself: "Brothers, I am Su Jin, the special envoy for grain affairs. I was originally entrusted by the emperor to handle grain affairs. But just a year ago, I ordered
Long Zhen, deputy commander of the Imperial Guards and Horse Army, came to Luzhou to escort 500,000 shi of grain to Yangzhou Prefecture for relief. You must have heard about this..."
The soldiers and government officials involuntarily slowed down their hands and feet, and listened to Su Jin's words. This night, everyone was confused by what they said to the public, and what was right or wrong had nothing to do with them.
Big, but driven by curiosity, I always want to find out.
"The prefect of Luzhou, Zhu Shiyong, originally had a personal grudge against me. In April and May last year, he colluded with the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce and wanted to kill me. However, Mr. Bao happened to be in Luzhou to help me clear my grievances. You are responsible for this matter.
I should have heard about it; but Zhu Shiyong held a grudge, and I accidentally learned that he, Tang Jiyuan and others from the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce secretly recruited Hei Qi, the bandit leader of Da Shu Mountain, and others as their thugs a few years ago, so
I, Su Jin, have become a thorn in his side..."
Zhu Shiyong took a breath of air. He didn't expect that Su Jin actually knew a big secret of his. How could he keep this person? It was ridiculous that he was still in the dark and was still unaware of it.
The soldiers and government officials were also shocked. As soon as Su Jin opened his mouth, he revealed a shocking secret. The bandit leader Hei Qi and others in Dashu Mountain were actually betrayed by the prefect. If they had not heard this with their own ears, no one would have thought of this.
Most people expressed doubts. This matter was a bit outrageous. It was really unbelievable how a dignified master could protect the bandit leader of Shu Mountain.
But the more unbelievable it was, the more they wanted to hear Su Jin continue talking. Many people stood there holding firewood, as if waiting for Su Jin to continue talking.
Zhu Shiyong cursed: "What can't a person say when he is about to die? You idiots are obviously making false accusations. What is there to say? Move quickly. If you continue to stand still, don't blame me for disobeying the order." .{."
Su Jin sneered and said: "Since this is a false accusation, why are you nervous? I have no evidence and I dare not frame you randomly. Do you think I am as shameless as you? You thought this matter was seamless, but it's a pity that after Qin Dalang was killed by Hei Qi, You sent people to kill Hei Qi and others, but unexpectedly one person escaped. When I attacked the Bagong Mountain bandits, this person happened to defect to the Bagong Mountain bandits and became their second in command. His His name is Qiu Dabao, maybe some of you will know him."
As soon as Qiu Dabao's name came out, several government officials couldn't help but say "ah". It was obvious that they had friendship with Qiu Dabao. Qiu Dabao was not as ferocious as Hei Qi and others. There were few people, otherwise Shen Yaozu of Bagong Mountain would not have been able to accept him as the second master. It was precisely because this person had a wide range of contacts and had good ears and eyes, and he took advantage of his good ears and eyes.
Su Jin continued: "I met Qiu Dabao on Bagong Mountain. He told me that after Qin Dalang's death, Zhu Shiyong failed to blame me, and he was afraid that Lord Bao would pursue it to the end, so he asked Ang Wuge, the widow of the Criminal Division, to take the blame. He also ordered people to invite Hei Qi and other people involved in the matter to a banquet, and poisoned them all with poisonous wine. Qiu Dabao went out to relieve himself and accidentally saw the poisoning process, so he pretended to be poisoned and took advantage of being carried. When he went out to bury him, he got into a violent incident and injured several people before fleeing to Bagong Mountain. I heard about this with my own ears. If there is any lie, he will not be able to survive the eternal calamity."
When Liu Dalang heard the name of Wu Wu Ge, his body trembled obviously, and the firewood in his hand scattered all over the floor. He did this with his own hands. How could Su Jin not be surprised when Su Jin said it in public at this moment? I thought Only Zhu Shiyong knew about it at this time, but unexpectedly it had been known for a long time; Su Jin knew it, but he didn't know how many people knew the details. I hope they only knew the general outline, and I hope they didn't know who strangled Wu Wu. elder brother.
Zhu Shiyong flew up and kicked a soldier who was listening in rapt attention to the ground. He kicked him several times and cursed: "You all listen to such ridiculous things with relish. Hurry up and do things quickly. Who will listen to his confusing words again?" , I am engaged in military law.”
Su Jin laughed loudly and said: "Look at how scared you are. You have the courage to do it, but not the courage to bear it. Don't worry, that Qiu Dabao was killed during my attack on the Bagong Mountain bandits' nest. Otherwise, how would you be here today?" ri is rampant, your black hat has fallen off a long time ago; it's a pity that you have done too many bad things. You are lucky in this matter. The main witness died without any evidence, but you have such deep hatred for me that you even lost your mind and sent someone to pretend to send someone away. The official document passed through Bagong Mountain, and the letter stating the date of the food convoy and the strength of the troops was deliberately left in the hands of the bandits, so that the bandits could steal the food I transported to Yangzhou. Although this was clever, it was exposed; you thought Chen Laogen, who delivered the official document, would have been killed by the bandits, but Chen Laogen was blessed with great luck. Not only did he not die, he was rescued by me, so your crime of collaborating with the bandits will be exposed to the world."
"Chen Laogen? How is that possible?" someone among the government officials shouted.
Su Jindao: "You must find it strange that Zhu Shiyong was so sanctimonious that he deceived Chen Laogen that the banditry in Bagong Mountain had been eliminated, and strictly ordered him to deliver the official document within a day, forcing Chen Laogen to take a shortcut from the foot of Bagong Mountain; Chen Laogen was
After the bandits were captured, you, Magistrate Zhu, falsely announced Chen Laogen's death in the government office, and personally sent pension money to Chen Laogen's old mother. The purpose was to confuse the public and cause Chen Laogen to be dead.
There are no signs; Chen Laogen has fallen into my hands. If Chen Laogen is lucky enough to survive, I believe that your Governor Zhu will definitely kill him and silence him; the reason why he publicly announced the news of Chen Laogen's death is to save thousands of people.
Once Chen Laogen comes back alive to make preparations, Chen Laogen has been his abandoned son from the beginning, and he will never allow Chen Laogen to return to Luzhou alive."
The more everyone thought about it, the more they felt that Su Jin'e's words made sense. Looking at Magistrate Zhu and Su Jin, one had a pale face and was speechless, while the other was talking with clear narration. If Su Jin was casually making up nonsense, he would have made it up in a short time.
If he is so precise, he is a peerless talent.
"If you are so sharp-tongued and spouting blood, you will be chopped into pieces and thrown into ashes after a while. I don't even bother to argue with you." Zhu Shiyong made a feeble argument.
Su Jin chuckled and said: "No matter how you argue, it can't change the facts. I can swear by the ancestors of my Su family. If there is any falsehood, there will be five thunders from heaven. Magistrate Zhu, do you dare to swear? Do you dare?"
By the ancestors of your Zhu family, have you never done such a thing?"
Zhu Shiyong's face alternated between green and red, and he said angrily: "Whoever does this boring trick with you, a little thief, if you swear, I don't dare. I just don't bother to argue with you. I have no gain or loss of identity."
Su Jin nodded and said: "I know you don't dare, but I don't want to hold you tight. I'm not saying this for you, I'm saying it to the Xiang soldiers and the government officials in Luzhou.
You hear it; you, Zhu Shiyong, committed a heinous crime all by yourself, but you dragged these brothers to follow you to death. This is too unkind. I said that you, an old thief, have a vicious heart. You knew that death was imminent, so you wanted to
I can understand why you want to kill me and my family to vent your anger. After all, I pulled out your pigtails, but you insist on asking these hundreds of brothers to accompany you to death, which is totally inappropriate."
Zhu Shiyong scolded angrily: "The little thief has a red mouth and white teeth, but he can sow discord. No matter how eloquent you are, you will definitely die today."
Su Jin said: "It doesn't matter whether I die or not, but if you insist on dragging these brother soldiers and government servants who don't understand the situation into rebellion, isn't this putting them in a situation of certain death? Even though there are grudges between you and me, there is no reason to drag them into trouble like this.
There are many people; if you close the gates of the four cities and impose a martial law, Ouyang Zhongcheng will lead the army and will definitely regard the soldiers following you in the city as rebels. There are more than a thousand people in the Baoxin Army plus the government officials, but the number is only 2,000. How can you resist nearly 10,000 people?
After the Forbidden Army's attack and the city's fall, these people were all charged with treason. Not only did they lose their lives, but they also caused trouble for their families. Are you still considered an individual by doing this? Have you asked for your opinions? If everyone is really willing to follow them to the death.
You, then treat me, Su Jinxian, to eat radish and sweeten the heart." dd
