At this moment, the soldiers from the first team had arrived. Without any explanation, they pushed the more than twenty gatekeepers aside and took over the guarding of the city gate. The guarding officer was at a loss and thought there was a mutiny! Just when he quietly retreated and prepared to escape, a war horse stopped in front of him. The person on the horse was wearing a python suit. It was Liu Haojia who arrived in person!
Liu Haojia waved to the officer to come over. The officer hesitated for a moment and then stepped forward tremblingly. Liu Haojia said: "Don't worry, it's none of your business! I'm going to the city today to catch the pirate den owner. You just need to guard the gate normally, but the gate must be manned by navy soldiers!"
After hearing this, the officer felt relieved and agreed repeatedly! Anyway, it was to catch pirates, not a mutiny, so it had nothing to do with him!
After the soldiers of the brigade entered the city, they attracted many people to watch. I wonder what these soldiers were going to do? Those who wanted to do something good simply followed the soldiers, only to see these soldiers heading straight for Beicheng. The people who lived there were all the powerful people in Quanzhou City, so the people following him had a lot of guesses!
And their suspicions were soon confirmed! I saw these soldiers rushing into the street and quickly surrounding a mansion. I saw the word "Zhao Mansion" written on the plaque in front of the door!
The Zhao family is a well-known local family in Quanzhou, known as the family heirloom that has been cultivated and studied for generations! Moreover, scholars have been serving as officials from generation to generation. Although their positions are not high, they are enough to take care of the clan, and they can be said to have long-lasting prosperity! Moreover, the Zhao family also owns a proprietary medicine shop and often sells porridge and medicine, so the Zhao family has an excellent reputation in Quanzhou! Seeing the Zhao family being surrounded, the onlookers couldn't help but say: "Is there a mistake?"
But at this moment, the officers surrounding the Zhao family shouted loudly: "The navy officers and soldiers are searching for the pirate den owner, and no one can come near! Anyone who disobeys will be guilty of the same crime!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him were in an uproar! No one thought that the Zhao family was actually the owner of pirates! Thinking about the fact that the navy captured a large number of pirates, they might have arrested them after obtaining confessions, so most of the people immediately believed it! Immediately, some people pointed at the Zhao family and started yelling!
However, the actions of the common people did not delay the actions of the soldiers. They directly opened the door of the house and swarmed in. At the same time, they shouted loudly: "The navy is arresting the pirate den owner. Anyone who resists will be charged with piracy! Those who kneel down will not be killed!" "
At the same time, there was the sound of the clash of weapons, the sound of fighting and the scream of a woman! It seems that his nursing home is unwilling to give up resistance, and the two sides have already fought! This makes the people even think that there is something wrong with the Zhao family!
At this time, Liu Haojia did not follow him into the Zhao Mansion. He and a group of officers pulled their horses and stopped in front of the mansion gate, watching the soldiers rush in to arrest people.
A moment later, the first soldier to go in dragged several dead bodies out and threw them on the street! The officer leading the team said: "Young Marshal, these guards refused to surrender, so I will kill them directly!"
Liu Haojia nodded and said: "Well done! There is no need to hold back on people like this! They may have been pirates before, otherwise how could the army still dare to resist here! Continue to clean up!"
The officer agreed and led people into the house again. At this time, the resistance in the Zhao Mansion had completely stopped, leaving only the shouts of the soldiers! It seems that they have taken control of the situation and are searching for people from the Zhao family to escape.
Sure enough, not long after, an old man with gray hair was taken out by the soldiers first! The soldier holding him threw him directly in front of Liu Haojia's horse! Liu Haojia took a closer look and couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Isn't this Mr. Zhao! We were having a banquet together the night before yesterday, but today Mr. Zhao has become a prisoner!"
The old man surnamed Zhao was thrown to the ground, causing extreme pain in his knees! But when he heard Liu Haojia speak, he couldn't help but be shocked! He hurriedly raised his head and looked, and sure enough, it was Liu Haojia riding on the horse looking at him with a smile!
The old man surnamed Zhao ignored the pain in his legs and pointed at Liu Haojia and said: "You, how dare you rush into the Zhao mansion in broad daylight to rob and kill people! Isn't there no law in this world!"
Liu Haojia laughed and said: "You still have the nerve to talk about Wang Fa with me! Why can't you remember the word Wang Fa when you were the master of a pirate den?"
When the old man surnamed Zhao heard this, he almost jumped up on the spot as if he had been stung by a scorpion! He shouted loudly: "You are talking nonsense! My Zhao family has been a pure man for generations, and I have never been the owner of a pirate! I will definitely accuse you of frame-up!"
Liu Haojia said leisurely: "Really? I think the poison-eyed osprey will definitely be willing to confront you!"
The old man surnamed Zhao turned pale instantly when he heard this! He subconsciously said: "This is impossible! Wasn't he beheaded?"
When the people around who had been listening attentively heard this, they suddenly made a noise! This time, the Zhao family's accusation of colluding with pirates was completely confirmed! However, there are still many people who feel that there is no real evidence and this may not be true!
At this time, the old man surnamed Zhao realized that it was of no use! However, he still stared at Liu Hao's house with hateful eyes, as if he was the culprit! He said loudly: "You said my family colluded with pirates? You are making a false accusation! I will sue you for making a false accusation!"
Liu Haojia reached out to the servant beside him, and the servant took out a thick confession and an account book from his arms. Liu Haojia took it, shook it in his hand, and then smashed it directly into the faces of these old men! Only then did he say: "This is the confession of the poisonous-eyed Osprey, and the account book he kept! The things between you are clearly written on it! What else do you have to quibble with?"
The old man named Zhao suddenly turned pale! , he hurriedly grabbed the confession and read it, then he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground! Because the confession is true, he knows all the things written on it, and some things were even arranged by him himself!
At this time, I heard Liu Haojia say again: "Did you see clearly? Also, don't even think about destroying the confession and the account book, because these are copies, and the originals are still in the naval camp!"
The people heard this clearly, and there was an uproar! At the same time, they fully understood that the Zhao family was really the owners of the pirate den! So everyone yelled and cursed, and some started throwing debris, but they were immediately stopped by the soldiers.
At this time, Liu Haojia said casually: "Do you think those people who were executed yesterday were all? I can tell you, no! Those people executed yesterday were just some stubborn pirates. The real ones None of the pirate leaders are dead, and they are still being held in the navy camp! And in order to prevent you from being unwilling, I have another message for you! You are just the first family member I want to arrest today. There will be someone to accompany you on the road!"
