At this time, the content of Liu Haojia's decree had spread among the surrounding people, and everyone knew that Zhang Jingping had been promoted from earl to marquis! Moreover, Zhang Jingping has a good reputation in Datong Town, so people watching the excitement congratulated him, and it was extremely lively for a while!
Only a small number of people in the crowd either sneered or shook their heads and sighed, probably trying to understand the reasons behind the incident. But there are too few such sober people!
Seeing the behavior of the people around him, Zhang Jingping secretly hated Liu Haojia! I hate him for reading the imperial edict in public, letting everyone know that the emperor and the court have great favor for Zhang Jingping. If he gets into any trouble again, he will be labeled as unfaithful and unfilial!
When the time comes, there will be no one to help him. Maybe there will be an endless stream of people who add insult to injury! At this time, Liu Haojia took a step forward, narrowed his eyes and said, "Why, are you still not accepting the order?"
Zhang Jingping knew that if he hesitated any longer, Liu Haojia would first be charged with resisting the imperial decree and being disrespectful, and he might be arrested on the spot by the Jin Yiwei! So he could only hold back the sadness in his heart, stood up and took the imperial edict with both hands.
Unexpectedly, this action triggered huge cheers from the surrounding people! There are also many people who feel that their status is enough to congratulate them from afar. It is estimated that the news spread throughout the city in just one stick of incense! This actually made Zhang Jingping wish he could kill these talents!
However, he still wanted to save the situation, so he lowered his status and said, "Also, why not go into the city and go to Xiaguan's place to have a rest!"
But Liu Haojia put his hands behind his back and said: "There are still people who came here to announce the decree. Now that the court's arrangements have been completed, there will be no more stay! But I would like to remind you that there is a time limit in the imperial decree! And where is Mr. Qi? I've already sent someone to notify you, and it will arrive in about ten days, so you'd better take care of yourself!"
After Liu Haojia finished speaking, he didn't even enter the city gate, but directly mounted his horse and led the team to turn around and leave. Zhang Jingping looked at Liu Haojia's back with mixed feelings in his heart! But what he can be sure of is that what he regrets most is breaking the agreement with Liu Haojia! Now Liu Haojia's counterattack has ruined the future of the entire family! I'm afraid that now he wants to die!
Just when everyone thought Liu Haojia had turned back to the capital, they didn't expect that the team walked a certain distance, met three people on the roadside, then went down the official road and rushed directly to a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Datong Town!
If Qian Shounian were here, he would be shocked! Because the people stationed in the Zhuangzi under his name are a group of swordsmen and salt lords he invited! And Liu Haojia led his people straight to this Zhuangzi, and he definitely didn't intend to have a good chat with them!
Although the team brought by Liu Haojia had marched a long distance, they were still in high spirits. Go straight to the target with someone leading the way. Finally we got close to our target in the evening!
And those salt lords felt that no one around them could do anything to them. In addition, they themselves were a group of rabble, so they didn't even have a sentry, so they didn't even realize that they were surrounded!
Seeing that the encirclement was set up, Liu Haojia waved his hand for the soldiers to rush in. Upon seeing this, the officers at all levels who had been waiting for a long time immediately led the soldiers and rushed in along the Zhuangzi intersection. The other Jin Yiwei cooperated with a small number of soldiers to roam around the perimeter to contain any fish that might have slipped through the net!
But one Zhuangzi was too small for hundreds of soldiers. They just blocked all the intersections before rushing in. It was impossible for anyone to escape!
The officer who first rushed into Zhuangzi led his men to block the intersection in front, and then began to search door to door. Because Liu Haojia had told them not to accidentally injure civilians as much as possible, they did not plan to shoot with muskets easily. They only started to tighten the encirclement after mounting their bayonets.
These soldiers had received strict training in street fighting. They rushed to the door of a house, kicked the door open, protected their bodies with bayonets, and rushed in! Before the people in the yard knew what was happening, they saw a large group of soldiers rushing in with bayonets drawn, and they were all scared out of their wits! Then they were knocked to the ground one by one by the soldiers! 33??qxs??.????r/>
Moreover, when Liu Haojia and his people arrived, it was just after dinner time. Many salt lords were eating in the rooms where they were assigned accommodation.
So now I am completely trapped in the house!
When a large group of soldiers entered the village, the noise could not be ignored, so they quickly alerted these salt owls! When they heard something was wrong outside, they immediately grabbed the knives and rushed out! But the villagers in the courtyard had already been dragged to the courtyard wall, and what greeted them was a dense barrage of bayonets!
The first salt owl who rushed out was stabbed in the chest and abdomen by three bayonets before he could swing his knife out! He immediately fell to the ground without saying a word!
The three salt owls at the back who were holding knives did not dare to rush out when they saw that their companions were dead. Instead, they confronted the soldiers through the door. Moreover, they saw that the gun in the soldier's hand was very long, and they thought it must not work well in the room, so as long as they were lured into the room, they might be able to fight back!
But just then they heard the sound of wood breaking! It turned out that other soldiers in the yard had smashed the windows! They looked into the room and shouted loudly: "There is no one else in the room, just the four of them!"
Because the soldiers had been instructed in advance not to accidentally injure civilians as much as possible, the soldiers were very cautious about shooting! But now that they heard the news from their companions, they knew that there was no risk in shooting, so the soldiers blocking the door immediately fired their guns!
The gunpowder was preloaded and fired immediately, so as long as the soldiers pulled the trigger, the lid on the medicine tank would open, the flint and the gear collided, and the sparks ignited the gunpowder in the medicine tank, and the gunpowder In an instant I started!
The three Salt Owls had no room to dodge in such a narrow room, so in the blink of an eye the three of them were beaten into pieces by lead bullets fired from outside the door and windows! Then the soldiers rushed in and searched the room. By the way, they gave each of the three men a stab wound and rushed to the next yard!
At the same time, soldiers rushed in from the yard next door. There were only five people busy in the yard of this house. They saw soldiers rushing into the courtyard, and before they could react, they were knocked to the ground by the soldiers!
The officer first directed the soldiers to guard the room, then pulled the oldest farmer and said loudly: "Are there any outsiders living in your house?"
The old man was so frightened that he couldn't speak. He could only shake his head desperately, but the meaning was expressed clearly enough. The officer felt relieved when he saw this. He raised his hand and two soldiers kicked open the door and rushed in! Then a woman's scream rang out in the room!
