Chapter 150 General Kong Wu dies in grief(1/2)
"I'm here to announce a news. General Kong Bosun and Kong are not dead, and Tianzong's undercover agents should have obtained the same information. They have no way out now. Therefore, there will be chaos in the city tonight, and we need to remain extremely vigilant to pursue and suppress
The work of thieves is done jointly by the city defense troops and police officers, and we do not need to participate. Our task is..."
Yuan Zhan's personal guard captain is assigning tasks according to the prior arrangement.
Because it is not certain whether there is an undercover Tianzong in the Guards, the true situation of General Kong Boxun remains secret.
Now that things have happened, Tianzong can no longer remain calm.
Although the energy they erupted did not exceed Qingyun and others' worst estimates, it was already a catastrophe for Ye County.
This time, in order to assassinate Kong Bosun, they obviously used their trump card.
In order to cover up this trump card, Tianzong had to expose most of the power they had secretly accumulated over the years.
Guards kept coming to the governor's house to report on the situation in the city.
"Report! There was a mutiny in the prison. Some guards opened the prison door and let all the prisoners out. There seems to be an undercover Tianzong among the prisoners, and they are causing trouble outside with those evil spirits."
"Report! The boss of Luji Teahouse actually drugged his guests, took hostages and confronted the officers and soldiers."
"Report! Old Xu Tou, the watchman, tried to set the granary on fire and has been captured."
"Report! The general of the south gate guard rebelled, killed his colleagues, and opened the city gate privately."
"Report!..."
The city was restless that night, and all kinds of bizarre security cases kept happening.
Except for Yuan Zhan's bodyguards who are relatively reliable, even ordinary city guards and police officers are hard to trust, and one after another people defected to participate in the incident.
If Yuan Zhan is led by these messy things, even if Yuan Zhan's manpower is expanded ten times, he will only be fooled around.
Fortunately, a plan had been made in advance, and Yuan Zhan's personal guards ignored these nonsense cases and only waited for Yuan Zhan's orders.
"Report! General Cheng and General You rebelled. They chopped off the head of Wuye Gui in Guanyi and rushed out of the south gate to join General Wei."
General Cheng, General You, and two people involved in the first scene of Kong Bosun's assassination were finally involved.
Yuan Zhan stroked his beard and smiled and responded,
"Okay! Let's go take care of it."
When the soldier walked away, Governor Yuan took a deep breath, looked back and strode forward,
"Finally, the truth has been exposed. Master Qing, you are really good at predicting things."
This chaos lasted for more than a day.
Because Yuan Zhan's personal guards did not personally participate in the arrest, after a series of fierce battles, General Cheng, General You, and General Wei successfully broke through the siege and left the city.
The people who eat melons can no longer understand the situation in front of them.
Tomorrow morning it's time for the Taoist priest to point out the real culprit, but the suspected real culprit has left the city. What's the point of these smoke bombs set off by the governor's office?
Could it be that all of this was just a smoke bomb to scare people, and the governor just wanted to force out all the Tianzong undercovers before taking action?
If that were the case, this series of arrangements would seem a bit inferior.
Although there are a lot of thieves, it is the common people who suffer. If the governor's office fails to act for a day, it will lose real popularity.
The people in the city were quite critical of this, and were all waiting for a satisfactory explanation from the governor's office.
As a result, the governor opened the door of the government and promoted the case to the court, and the common people who had no criminal record could hear the case outside the court.
How could the people who had been on tenterhooks for two days miss such a big melon? In an instant, the streets were deserted by tens of thousands of people, and the governor's office was surrounded three times inside and three times outside by the young and old.
Although the people crowded outside could not hear or see, they all left everything and gathered together with the intention of being able to eat the melon as soon as possible.
"Dear fellow villagers, the Tianzong bandits have been rampant these days, causing everyone to suffer.
As an official, you should make decisions for the people. I can see the sufferings of the people.
Although the evildoer is the demon of Tianzong, the compensation will be taken care of by the government.
Starting from tomorrow, the county magistrate will set up a special working group to verify the damage of each household.
If a house is destroyed by fire, property damage caused by a fight, or personal injuries, compensation can be paid according to the facts.
Officers and soldiers who die in the line of duty will receive meritorious deeds and their pensions will be doubled.
For the family members of those who died in the accident, I will allocate special allowances from my private salary to comfort the family members. The standards are based on those who died in the public service.
Everyone must remember that this is a war launched by the demons of Tianzong who want to shake the foundation of the Wei Dynasty!
Each of us is a frontline warrior!
Our sacrifices today are all for peace in the future and to completely eradicate the remnants of the demon!
General Kong defended one side to protect Guangzhou's peace, but he was plotted by a monster!
He shed blood for this city, he worked hard for this city, but he was never defeated!
Although General Kong can no longer stand in front of us to protect this city, we can bleed and fall, but we will never be defeated!"
Yuanzhan was worthy of being from a noble family, and he was definitely an expert in creating atmosphere and doing ideological work.
His impassioned speech made the crowd excited.
"We will not be defeated!"
"Destroy the demons of Tianzong!"
"I want to join the army! Fight monsters!"
Seeing that the people's grievances had been successfully grafted onto Tianzong's head, Yuan Zhan made a placating gesture and announced that today the big melon would fall:
"The Taoist Master Chongxu next to me successfully saved General Kong.
But unfortunately, the general's life was only extended by two days.
In the end, General Kong regretfully left us.
But the general will not die in vain!
Today Taoist Master Chongxu will personally lead everyone to catch the murderer!
Yes, the real murderer is still in this city!
Let us work together to root out the real culprit, wipe out the bandits, and avenge General Kong!"
"Eradicate the real culprit, wipe out the bandits, and avenge General Kong!"
"Eradicate the real culprit, wipe out the bandits, and avenge General Kong!"
"Eradicate the real culprit, wipe out the bandits, and avenge General Kong!"
Thousands of voices outside the governor's office spoke in unison, waiting for the final answer to the mystery to be solved.
"Please invite Taoist Master Chongxu!"
Yuan Zhan stretched out his right hand and stepped back, letting the Taoist priest who had been invited from Qingzhou overnight pass in front of him.
"Wu Liang..." The Taoist mouth announced the Taoist title, and suddenly remembered that the word "Tianzun" was closely related to the Tianzong. Now that it was taboo, he hurriedly changed his words, "Zhenren Taiyi!"
Taiyi, the First Heavenly Emperor in the East, was inexplicably demoted to become a real person.
"Pindao has captured General Kong's consciousness in this jade bottle. This bottle can lead us to find the real murderer!"
Yuan Zhan nodded,
"All officials who were present on the day of General Kong's assassination came out!"
Twenty-six people lined up, Qingyun, Cui Yu and Zu Xunzhi also entered the queue.
Taoist Priest Chongxu held up the jade purification bottle and shook it from the twenty-nine people one after another, and finally shook his head.
"The murderer is not among the twenty-nine people."
》》》》》Time to knock on the blackboard》《《《
During the blackboard time for this chapter, we will talk about two questions, both of which came from feedback from readers.
First of all, what we want to talk about is that readers pointed out that the use of punctuation marks in this article is not standardized. Colons are rarely used before quotation marks in dialogues.
This matter is indeed a poisonous point for all students who have not taken the college entrance examination and must not learn it.
But what we want to discuss next is the rationality of the use of punctuation marks.
Chinese punctuation marks only began to be used in the late 19th century, which is not a very long historical process. Just like what we discussed before, this is the product of the standardization of modern writing and grammar.
Since it is a product of grammatical standardization, every punctuation mark must have its own comments.
Colon: is a punctuation mark used to indicate the following or to summarize the previous text.
Its main usage is as follows:
1. It is used after the salutation in letters and speeches to indicate the following.
2. Used after the name of the speaker in records of interviews, debates, discussions, court trials, etc. to elicit the content of the speech.
3. Used after prompting words to indicate the mention of the following.
Fourth, it is used to introduce specific explanations after general remarks.
