I’m The King Chapter 1329: : Han Banner World (19) Darkness in the Sun
In the mining area, tens of thousands of miners used ore to pile up barriers, and everyone was nervously watching the distance below the mountain. There were more and more troops, except for the defenders stationed in Helin they knew. In addition, there are young guards with clear banners, excellent weapons, and high morale. Although they have as many as ten thousand people, they are all a group of rabble. Just be brave.
In a small stone house, more than a dozen leaders who led the riot gathered together, and all eyes were fixed on a person who looked like a tent in a long robe.
"Mr. Mu, do we really want to surrender?" asked the man who had previously shouted loudly in front of Cao Tianci that he would surrender when he saw the king.
"Yes, when the king arrives, thenpigpigislandnovel www.(zhu)(zhu)().om is the time for us to surrender." But it has a hint of excited red. "Lazabe, have you forgotten my intention when I believed in the plan? What we have to do is to let all your clansmen live with dignity, and live better day by day like those in other parts of Dahan. Better. We don't want to rebel, we love the big man just the same."
A dozen or so people in different costumes in the room nodded.
"You have never been to other places in Dahan, and you don't understand Dahan's laws. Those laws are excellent, but in our place, they have been sung in a crooked tune. Black-hearted mine owners have concealed Those places that are crucial to you, he will lock you up in this place like slaves, and work for them. They **** your blood and sweat to nourish themselves, but this is not allowed by the law of the big man. But Tongji But the mine is really high and the king is far away. The eyes of the king of the Han Dynasty did not project to this small place. What the king wants to manage are the tens of thousands of people in the Han Dynasty. It will never appear in front of him at all. But now is an opportunity, we have this way to attract the eyes of the king to this place, Lazabe, what we have to do is not just let the people of Tongji Mine To be rescued, and more importantly, all people of different nationalities in Liaodong can continue to bathe in the sun.”
"Lazabe is willing to follow the teachings of Mr. Lazabe." Lazabe bowed while touching his chest with his right hand.
"Okay. Since everyone has no objection, let's make a decision like this. Are you ready?" Mr. Mu said with a smile.
"Sir, according to what you said, even though we were compelled to launch this riot for a good purpose, we still violated the law of the great man. Even if our demands were met in the end, we still You may have to pay the price of your life for this. Is it true?" another man said loudly.
"Yes." Mr. Mu nodded and said: "No matter what the goal is, our behavior is still not allowed. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, everyone in this room may lose their lives. .But our death will be exchanged for the happy life of the people of all ethnic groups in the Liaodong Peninsula, are you willing?"
"I am willing." Lazabe nodded emphatically. "This time we launched a riot and killed hundreds of Zhu Da's mine guards. And those policemen, just for this, will not be tolerated by the court. But Mr. Mu, you are Han, you are educated, you Showed us a clear path, you shouldn't die here, you can go now, leave here, go eastward, and it won't take long before you can leave the big man and go to a place where they can't find them. We These people are willing to die."
Mr. Mu smiled slightly, "Without me, there would be no riot this time, even if my wish was good, but this time, so many people died, and those mine guards were not all bad guys. The police are not guilty of death, but they are all dead, and I should pay the price for it. This is the law of the Han Dynasty. The result is that justice is not perfect, but procedural justice is also necessary.”
A dozen people in the room stood up and bowed deeply to Mr. Mu.
"Okay, okay, since I came here a year ago, I have made up my mind to do this. Now, we are about to reach our goal. We should be happy, and we shouldn't be so sad. Lazabe, have you put away those explosives, there must be nothing wrong with this."
"It's all sealed and packed. We'll send all these things out as soon as the king arrives." Lazabe said loudly.
"Very well, now, let's go!"
Mr. Mu walked out of the stone house with more than a dozen people. Outside, the dark miners gathered together. There are many tattered clothes, old and weak women and children with sallow complexions.
Gao Yuan ignored the persuasion of Mao Dewang and others. After Cao Tianci came back to explain the situation, Gao Yuan immediately set off for Tongji Mine. After his Wang Banner appeared outside Tongji Mine, the mining area has been closed The gate opened with a clatter, and dozens of men came out of the gate carrying wooden boxes one by one, and placed these boxes in front of the gate.
Wu Ya led a team of guards forward, opened the box, and saw the contents of the box, his face finally revealed a relaxed expression. These were the explosives they were most nervous and worried about in the mine.
"Governor Mao, are you sure there are only so many explosives in the mine?" Wu Ya asked.
"Yes, the purchase of explosives must be registered in the register, and every catty is registered, so it should be here." Mao Dewang nodded.
Wu Ya breathed a sigh of relief, this thing is too scary, if it really explodes, it will be enough to wipe out Tongji Mine. With a wave of their hands, the soldiers carefully carried the boxes and backed away.
From the gate, the miners who came out of this riot continuously, after walking out of the gate, they knelt down on the ground consciously, and the garrison soldiers of Helin County quickly drove in, and took out the ropes that had been prepared , ready to tie them all up.
"There's no need to tie it up." Gao Yuan waved his hand and said stupidly to Yang Da next to him, "They have already surrendered."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Da foolishly stepped forward. These people had no intention of resisting. The Young Guards were enough to kill them all here one-sidedly.
Gao Yuan looked in front of the black miner kneeling on the ground, a man in a green robe led a dozen guys who were obviously leaders, they were standing there, looking at him.
Gao Yuan rode his horse forward slowly. Behind him, He Weiyuan led his personal guards to surround Gao Yuan. Everyone's eyes were fixed on that group of people. I really didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that someone in the middle would explode and make trouble. On the other hand, Yang Dasha didn't take it seriously, what kind of kung fu is the king, even if these people want to assassinate or something, they can get benefits from the king.
As the only general in the Han army who dared to fight Gao Yuan with real swords and guns, Yang Dasha knew very well how powerful the king is. Even if he tried his best, he would eventually be beaten by the king and lie on the ground like a dog, unable to get up.
Gao Yuan's eyes fell on the man in Tsing Yi at the front, with a look of surprise on his face, "Are you from the Central Plains?"
Mr. Mu knelt down on one knee, following his knees. A dozen riot leaders behind them knelt down, "Student Mutu, I have met the king."
"Student?" Gao Yuan frowned.
"Yes, the student is the first graduate of the Law Department of Jicheng Comprehensive University. Your Majesty is the honorary principal of Jicheng Comprehensive University. Naturally, I can also be regarded as your student."
"Law Department?" Gao Yuan's eyes were a little playful, "Since you are studying Dahan's law, you should be familiar with my Dahan's legal system. I want to ask you a question. Do you know that this Consequences?"
"The students understand and are ready." Mutu nodded.
"In that case, why do you still do this. It seems that you are their leader." Gao Yuan said.
"I'm not the leader, I'm just their organizer." Mutu said, "Your Majesty, would you like to take a walk inside. Would you like to take a look?"
Gao Yuan looked up at the dusty mine and nodded, "Okay. Let's take a walk and have a look. I also want to hear from you. The first batch of graduates from Jicheng Comprehensive University, now They are all leaders in all walks of life in my big man, why did you come here instead of being an official?"
Looking at Gao Yuan who got off his horse, Mu Tu said: "The student's family background is good, but he doesn't like to be an official. After graduation, he wandered around the territory of Dahan. He came here two years ago and never left again. Your Majesty , students will guide you."
Gao Yuan nodded, "Let's go." He took a big step and walked in. He Weiyuan and his group guarded Gao Yuan's surroundings nervously, but this time Yang Dasha didn't dare to push him any further, and waved his hand , Wu Ya had already commanded the soldiers of the guards, and entered the mining area before Gao Yuan.
Outside the mining area, tens of thousands of miners were kneeling, but inside, there were more old and weak women and children. They gathered together and watched the soldiers with bright armor rush in with panicked faces.
"Your Majesty is the wisest monarch in history that I know, whether in martial arts or martial arts." Mutu said.
"This is not flattery, this is my true heart, the big man is also the most enlightened and the best country in history."
"In that case, why do you still incite miners to riot?" Gao Yuan asked lightly.
Mutu pointed to those yellow and thin people around, "But your majesty, although the sun is shining brightly, there are still corners and people that cannot be taken care of, just like them. Obviously, such small people It is impossible for a small group of people to listen to the heavens and reach your ears. In the past two years, I have traveled all over the three provinces of Liaodong, and what I have seen and heard is far from what I think in my heart. Your Majesty As I said, where the flag of the Han Dynasty is flying, all the people of the Han Dynasty enjoy the same rights, but I have not seen it in these places.”
"Here, maybe it's just an extreme." Gao Yuan said slowly: "There are many ways to solve it. It doesn't have to be this one."
"Maybe this is just an extreme, but in the entire three counties of Liaodong, it is undeniable that people of foreign races enjoy much less rights than Han people. What we Han people enjoy here, here Dozens of ethnic minorities can't even think of it, and they can't enjoy it. First of all, they don't know what rights they should enjoy." Mutu said: "The officials here are not like what the king thinks, they really treat them Also regarded as an equal member of myself."
Gao Yuan casually walked into a thatched hut, which was a miner's home. After stepping through the door, Gao Yuan's eyes couldn't help shrinking. There was a smell, at the door, a woman was kneeling with two children, and one of them, a boy about three years old, was not naked.
Going to the rice vat in the corner, Gao Yuan reached out and lifted the lid, and it was empty.
"This is not an isolated case, but a phenomenon that has happened all over the place. Now when you walk into any shed, you will see the same thing." Mutu's face was expressionless, "I came here two years ago. At that time, I was really shocked. I didn't expect that such a situation would still exist in the years since the founding of the Han Dynasty. I watched the carloads of woolen iron starting from here, and watched the mine owners in the past two years. This place has obtained huge sums of money and wealth, but here is the blood and sweat of these miners! The laws of the big man are hidden here, and the miners are more like slaves. It is easy to come in, but difficult to get out!"
"Many mine owners here have cleverly used the work contracts signed with the miners~IndoMTL.com~ Hey, it can't be regarded as a contract but a contract of selling one by one. After signing this, Even if these miners want to leave, they can’t, because from the content of the contract, the government absolutely believes that these miners have violated the contract and not the mine owners. The mining area has become a cage, and they are imprisoned. Prison confinement here, the whole of Liaodong is similar, the only difference is that some mine owners are a little bit kinder and pay higher wages, so that those miners and their families can survive, but here, there are indeed some I can't live anymore."
Gao Yuan's face is very ugly, because in the mines in Liaodong, many ministers of the DPRK and China have participated in the shares. Became one of these Zhou Papi who knocked the bone and sucked the marrow.
"When the students were in school, they heard a class given by the king. The main purpose of that class was that everyone is equal before the law." Mutu looked at Gao Yuan, "But I am here, Without seeing equality, the students tried many ways to let more people know about the situation here, but it was useless. Even the students almost lost their lives here. In the end, it was Lazabe and the others who saved me. Since then, I have stayed here, and I want to help them, and this tour of the king has provided me with an excellent opportunity. Only when the king sees it with his own eyes and hears it with his own ears, will there be a change "(to be continued...)
