Chapter 193 Preliminary decision on the overall situation
Jiangdu County Yamen
Lin Hongfei sat upright behind the desk and received information from all over the county.
"County Principal, Guo and others eliminated all 2,500 Ren Family militias in Crow Valley, and none escaped!"
"The Zhang family, Xu family and other five wealthy families were robbed by the Ren family militia, their houses were burned down, and most of the tribe members were killed, and only some of the young and old survived."
"Captain Wu led a team to attack the camp stationed near the county town of Ren's militia. More than 500 enemy soldiers in the camp were wiped out!"
"The county camp of the Renjia Militia Group has been occupied by our army!"
"County magistrate and Director Chu Liangyi have emptied the money and grain stored by the Liang family and Ren family and transported all the money and grains to the county camp of the Ren family for storage."
"Company Commander Chen Deshan has arrested many important figures of the Ren family, including Ren Zhi and Ren Xiang, and has now been detained in the county prison cell."
"With the assistance of Ren Jiu, Director Huo Yunshan took over the family industries of the Ren family, Liang family, Zhang family and other major gentry. Within two days, all the account books and money will be sealed and sent to the county government for inspection."
"Company Commander Ding Dehu has set out to Wu City, Hubei Province to withdraw money from the Ren family and Liang family.
"County magistrate, there are many gentry outside the county government office asking for a meeting. They claim that the Ren family, Liang family, Zhang family and others are now fighting bloody internally, causing order in Jiangdu County to turmoil, and you need to come forward to take charge of the overall situation!"
"By the way, they all carry heavy gifts. This is a gift list. Do you want to take a look?" A civilian staff member placed several gift lists on Lin Hongfei's desk.
Lin Hongfei didn't even look at it, and waved his hand and said, "The Ren family, Liang family, Zhang family and other families are gone. The remaining so-called gentry are just local rich people in the countryside."
"Let them go home and listen to the letter first. I don't have time to pay attention to these small characters now!"
"Yes, I'll tell them now!"
The civilian staff member held the gift list again and then quickly walked out of the county government office.
At this time, more than a dozen gentry dressed in silk clothes gathered outside the county government.
Originally, with their power, they were not qualified to talk directly with Lin Hongfei in the past.
But who made the Ren family, Liang family, Zhang family and other big families wiped out?
Only when the generals were drawn from the shorts did these rich people in the countryside have the qualifications to directly ask for Lin Hongfei.
Seeing the staff coming out, these local rich men rushed up, smiling all over their faces, and speaking politely:
"Sir Wu, what did the county magistrate say?"
"Can we meet the county magistrate?"
"You have to say a few more good things for us!"
This civilian aide is named Wu Qishan, who is Wu Yongquan and Wu Yushu's cousin.
Listening to the compliments from these gentry members, the young Wu Qishan did not feel ashamed, but said indifferently:
"The county magistrate said, let you go home first, and when there is news, he will naturally notify you!"
After saying that, Wu Qishan was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, so he turned his head and left.
Seeing this scene, everyone had to look at each other, with a little panic on their faces.
"If the county magistrate doesn't see us, it's not that he looks down on us."
"Oh, I have been re-elected as An Fu and Liang Wanyi have been taken down by the county magistrate. How can we little characters be attracted to others' attention?"
"I've misunderstood my opinion. Who would have thought that there was such an elite soldier hidden behind the county magistrate?"
"When the Ren family is watching, the Liang family fights to the death. When both sides suffer losses, they will use thunder to suppress the two families."
"Good means, good means!"
Everyone sighed heavily. Unlike Liang Wanyi and Ren Anfu and other big-headed snakes, they were not Lin Hongfei's opponents even if they united together.
Moreover, Lin Hongfei destroyed the Ren family and Liang family, who knows whether he will attack them next?
The most important thing is that the militia under Ren Anfu has more than 2,000 people who have not been wiped out by the county magistrate.
These people stole all the Zhang family, Xu family and other families. Maybe they had already gone up the mountain to become bandits, and maybe they would go down the mountain one day and snatch them, the local rich man.
After Lin Hongfei sent people to wipe out more than 2,000 militia soldiers in Crow Valley, he did not make any statement. Instead, he spread rumors in the county through some of Ren Jiu's subordinates, claiming that the militia robbed the Zhang family, Xu family and other gentry, because he was afraid that someone would investigate, he hid in the mountains and became a bandit.
Because no one saw the tragic situation of the militia in Crow Valley with his own eyes, no one could see any corpse in his life or death. For these Schrödinger's militia soldiers, no one was sure that they all died.
Therefore, everyone gradually believed the rumors spread by Lin Hongfei.
Therefore, the people in Jiangdu County were worried every day that those militia groups that had fallen into the mountains to rob, but they all dared to destroy the ruthless characters of the Zhang family and the Xu family!
What Lin Hongfei wants is this effect. Only by keeping the people in Jiangdu County in an atmosphere full of crisis and uneasiness, they will involuntarily move closer to the nearby strong people and surrender in the hope of obtaining shelter.
Lin Hongfei, by asking Wu Yongquan to lead troops to wipe out the militias near the county town, made the people of Jiangdu County realize that Lin Hongfei was a ruthless character who could protect them.
Therefore, in just three or two days, the people in Jiangdu County quickly changed their attitude towards Lin Hongfei, hoping to get Lin Hongfei's care.
In addition, this group of Schrödinger's militia can also be a perfect culprit, as long as any gentry or force in Jiangdu County dares to sing a stage play against Lin Hongfei.
He directly asked his soldiers to pretend to be a militia and eliminate them physically.
Although the method is rough and simple, the effect is very obvious.
When he completely grasped Jiangdu County, he launched another wave of fake bandit suppression operations, and claimed to the outside world that he had wiped out all these militia soldiers.
From then on, Jiangdu County will be calm and peaceful. The Liang family, Ren family, Zhang family and others have all become the past. No one will pay attention to a group of dead people who have long turned into bones.
"No, we must find a way to meet the county magistrate and ask him to send troops to wipe out the remaining militias, otherwise this will be a knife hanging over our heads!"
"Yes, and I also have to express my opinion to the county magistrate. We will all listen to the county magistrate in Jiangdu County in the future!"
Just as everyone was discussing, a man in a silk shirt ran away not far away, and he panted:
"Call it, I found out!"
"The chief of the Military Law Department under the county magistrate is Huo Yunshan, the eldest son of the Huo family!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly looked happy!
"real!"
"Very good!"
"Let's go to the Huo family quickly and ask Mr. Huo to help me pass on a message."
"If the eldest young master of the Huo family can ask for help, the county magistrate will definitely appreciate his face!"
"Go ahead, go quickly!"
Chapter completed!
