Turbulent Times Chapter 973: The people being used
When the morning light was getting brighter, the closed city gate of Rongcheng County was slowly opened. Wang Junlin led a group of five hundred soldiers out of the city gate and headed towards the navy camp.
In the middle of the team is Wang Junlin, wearing the official uniform of the prefect, extremely luxurious and majestic. In addition to the five hundred soldiers led by Shan Xiongxin, who are surrounded by soldiers, Wang Junlin is also followed by perfume, insect demons, and spring and autumn valleys. Zhu Yukun, Huang Shaoqiu, Lu Shijun and other nine naval officers were among the more than forty masters led by Zhu Yu, Chunqiu Nu, and Zhang Tiangang, and of course Lu Youwei.
County magistrate Guan Fengping stayed behind to guard the county seat, in case the prefect leaves the city and there are young people making trouble.
Last night, the county soldiers also took part in arresting people and ransacking their homes in the later stage, so what happened in Dou Mansion has actually spread in the city, but it has not spread outside the city, so the people of Rongcheng County early in the morning Discussing with each other, soon everyone got a general idea of what happened last night, and they flocked outside the city gate to watch this scene. The bold people pointed at the prefect and his party. Wang Junlin listened carefully, Many people are saying good things, which shows that Dou Shihai has a bad reputation in Rongcheng County, but the people dare not speak out.
Suddenly, several people cried and knelt down to Wang Junlin, shouting in their mouths: "Your Majesty, you are alive!"
"Thank you, sir, for making decisions for us."
"Then Dou Shihai should have died a long time ago."
"Father, the thief Dou Shihai was killed by the prefect..."
…
As several common people took the lead, more common people knelt down and kowtowed in front of Wang Junlin and his party. It was obvious that these people were all murdered by Dou Shihai. And those who hadn't been entrapped before, felt grateful and awed in their hearts, and also knelt down.
It didn't take long, so the people knelt down, and everyone was grateful for the words of praise. In the end, everyone's voices gathered together and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Mr. Taishou, for eliminating harm for the people."
Wang Junlin was stunned, looking at the black mass of heads, he was filled with emotion. In fact, he did not think of eliminating harm for the people when he got rid of Dou Shihai. He made the move, but unintentionally, he removed a big villain for the people of Rongcheng County.
Wang Junlin rode on a blood-maned horse, bowed his hands to everyone, and said loudly: "I am the prefect of Fanyang County. I am the official of your parents. Dou Shihai is using his power to do evil in Rongcheng County, bullying men and women, and taking advantage of others." , so that countless people's properties were robbed, and even innocent people died tragically. After hearing this news a few days ago, I couldn't sleep or eat, so I came to get rid of this thief and eliminate harm for the people. After working hard with you adults last night , finally get rid of this thief."
"Thank you, Lord Prefect."
"The prefect is really a good official."
"The prefect has a long life."
"A long life is not enough! Long live the prefect."
I don't know who shouted "Long live the prefect, long live the prefect", and all the people shouted in unison: "Long live the prefect, long live the prefect."
Wang Junlin's complexion changed, so did Xiang Xiang, Shan Xiongxin, Shen Guoer and others.
And there was a smile on the corner of Zhu Yukun's mouth. He specially asked someone to arrange it last night. He didn't expect the effect to be so good. It would bring about a serious disaster, but at least His Majesty will never trust Wang Junlin in recommending the Navy Zhonglang General again, and the backing behind him will definitely make him become the Navy Zhonglang General.
Wang Junlin jumped off his horse suddenly, knelt down in the general direction of Luoyang Xindu, and said loudly: "I am also ordered by His Majesty to eliminate harm. Let us wish His Majesty the Emperor long live long live long live long live."
How could the common people know how powerful this was? Seeing that the prefect had spoken, they shouted in unison: "Long live, long live, Your Majesty."
Wang Junlin got up and took a look at the county magistrate Guan Fengping who was seeing him off at the gate of the city. persuade the people to leave.
Wang Junlin took a look at Guan Fengping and then turned his eyes back, thinking that it was not arranged by Guan Fengping. As he got on his horse, he glanced at the nine naval officers and saw nothing wrong with their faces. He gave Shen Guoer a wink, and the latter said in a low voice: "I'm going to find the person who shouted Long Live first, and find out who is behind the scenes."
After speaking, Shen Guoer left the team with four sword servants and a dozen masters, dismounted, and quietly followed behind the scattered people.
…
…
From Rongcheng County to Naval Camp, take the official road for ten miles, passing a valley and a forest on the way.
Soon, they came to the entrance of the valley, but the blood-maned horse under Wang Junlin's crotch suddenly stopped by itself, and let out an irritable neighing sound towards the valley in front, and the people behind also stopped. Jun Lin looked at the valley in front of him, and found that there were no rocks on the mountains on both sides. Through the valley, he could already faintly see the navy camp next to the harbor.
"Zhang Tiangang, take a few people to check both sides..."
Not waiting for Wang Junlin to finish speaking, suddenly there was a loud and clear bird song in the sky, and then Xiang Xiang shouted: "It's Xiang'er, Xiang'er is warning, there is an ambush in this valley."
Xiang'er is the female sea eagle among the two sea eagles tamed by Nie Xiaoyu. Wang Junlin looked up and suddenly his earlobe trembled. , because this is the sound of Nie Xiaoyu's divine bow being fired with all its strength. Immediately afterwards, he heard the sound of some kind of heavy crossbow pivot being pulled.
"No, there are crossbowmen in ambush." Wang Junlin shouted and tripped the blood-maned horse. The blood-maned horse was full of spirituality and lay down with Wang Junlin.
Wang Junlin was worried about the perfume again, and turned his head to see that the girl had got under the horse's belly.
But at this moment, from above the short mountain, a huge crossbow arrow pierced through the air, and with the sound of howling wind and thunder, it flew over Wang Junlin's head, and shot through a mansion soldier behind him. He shot through three government soldiers in one breath before stopping.
Wang Junlin was lying on the ground, his eyes were like lightning, and he could see clearly that it was not an ordinary crossbow, but a city defense crossbow about the length of two adult arms.
"Buzz buzz..."
Immediately afterwards, countless terrifying, suffocating sounds of crossbow arrows sounded in the dense forests on the hillsides on both sides of the valley!
This was the sound of at least a thousand arrows firing at the same time. Wang Junlin secretly rejoiced that the blood-maned horse had detected it in advance, and then Nie Xiaoyu asked the sea eagle to warn them, so they did not enter the valley.
