Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 381 Escorting the Captives to Xuan Town
Under Song Hu's order, the high platform was quickly built.

Song Hu sat on the high platform, and his personal guards stood on both sides of him, looking like an official who interrogated prisoners in a yamen.

There is a table in front of Song Hu, and a gavel is placed on the table.

"You, come up to talk, and this Wu Youdao, come up with me." Song Hu patted the gavel and looked at the middle-aged man and Wu Youdao.

Wu Youdao had 1 reluctances in his heart, but at this moment, he couldn't help it.

After a while, the middle-aged man and Wu Youdao walked up to the high platform.

Song Hu looked at Wu Youdao, clapped the gavel in his hands, and asked, "Wu Youdao, what do you have to say now?"

Wu Youdao knelt down on the ground in panic, "My lord, there are many wives and concubines in a villain's house, how can he fall in love with a little country girl? This old man is slandering the villain."

Song Hu looked at the middle-aged man, "He said you were slandering him, do you have any evidence to prove that you didn't slander him?"

The middle-aged man looked at Wu Youdao angrily, with a stern voice, "My lord, the villain definitely did not slander Wu Youdao, it is obvious to all in Daizhou City what kind of person Wu Youdao is.

If the Wang family in the city is the number one villain, then this Wu Youdao is the number two villain.A villain does not dare to deceive an adult, and all the neighbors of the villain can testify. "

"Where are your neighbors? Let them come up." Song Hu said.

"The villain's neighbors are below now, please allow the villain to call up the villain's neighbors." The middle-aged man nodded respectfully to Song Hu, and looked at Song Hu expectantly.

Song Hu nodded, "You find them."

"My lord, I can't look for it, I can't look for it. These people must have colluded. They must have colluded with my family's property on purpose. My lord, I can't." Wu Youdao panicked, and he looked panic-stricken. Shout out.

What Wu Youdao has done in Daizhou City for so many years is not clear to others, but he knows it very well. If those people get out of this way, he will really die.

Song Hu clapped the gavel in his hand suddenly, and shouted: "Huh, what you said is interesting, you said that these people have negotiated to take over your family's property, so why don't they take other people's property, why do they just want to take it from you?" To seek you? Shut up now, if you dare to disturb the court again, be careful, I will reward you with dozens of military sticks."

Wu Youdao looked at Song Hu's ferocious expression, closed his mouth tremblingly, and his body began to tremble.

Wu Youdao's heart is extremely guilty. These years, in Daizhou, he doesn't know how many big girls with yellow flowers have been harmed, because the harms are all ordinary people, so these people have nothing to do with themselves, but looking at today's situation, there is nothing to do Good.

Cold sweat began to flow from Wu Youdao's forehead, and he kept looking down, praying in his heart that the neighbors would not come up.

However, things backfired. Under the leadership of the middle-aged man, the neighbors of the middle-aged man climbed onto the high platform together, a total of 20 people.

"My lord, these people are my neighbors." The middle-aged man looked at Song Hu and pointed at the crowd behind him.

Song Hu nodded, looked at these neighbors, and asked in a deep voice: "Is what he said just now true? I hope you can answer truthfully."

A woman stepped forward, and she stood in front of the middle-aged man, "My lord, what Song Laosan said is true, and the body of Song Laosan's daughter was collected by the women."

"My lord, this Wu Youdao is a well-known bully in Daizhou City. Although he is not as good as the Wang family, he is also very harmful. He has done all kinds of bad things in Daizhou City. No one dares to hold a wedding if the eldest girl of any family gets married. .If Wu Youdao finds out who holds the wedding ceremony, then the girl's innocence will definitely be lost."

"That's right, this Wu Youdao has sores on his head and pus on his feet. He is very lustful. Even the daughters of ordinary people in the city dare not go out. If Wu Youdao targets him, it will be a disaster."

Song Laosan's neighbors started arguing with each other, accusing Wu Youdao of his evil deeds.

Not only Song Laosan's neighbors, but even the people below began to scold Wu Youdao.

"Wu Youdao is like a pig and dog, my lord, kill him."

"Kill Wu Youdao, kill Wu Youdao!"

All of a sudden, the sound of shouting, beating, and killing rang out endlessly.

Wu Youdao knelt on the high platform, watching the menacing appearance of the people behind him, sweating profusely, and trembling all over his body.

"You are farting, you are farting!" Wu Youdao pointed at Song Laosan and Song Laosan's neighbors on the high platform, and cursed guiltily.

Song Hu also understood when he saw this.This Wu Youdao is indeed an evil gentry and bully, otherwise it is impossible to cause public anger.

Song Hu clapped the gavel in his hands, and the people below hurriedly shut their mouths.

Song Hu stood up and looked at the people: "I have already understood the matter of Wu Youdao, this Wu Youdao is an evil gentry with all kinds of bad deeds, he is really a heinous person.

Regarding the various crimes committed by Wu Youdao, I have decided to make the following judgments on Wu Youdao.Wu Youdao fished the common people, disrespected the law, and sentenced him to be executed by shooting.

In addition, all property of Wu Youdao was confiscated, and all property of Wu Youdao was compensated to the victim's family.

As for Wu Youdao's family members, all his servants were dispersed on the spot, and the immediate family members were taken away by me for reform-through-labor education.Folks, how about my verdict? "

"My lord is wise, my lord is wise." When the people heard the verdict, they all cheered excitedly.

At this point, Wu Youdao, who had been rampant in Daizhou City for more than ten years, was finally eradicated, and these people finally felt proud, and all the grievances they had suffered in these years disappeared at this moment.

"Come here, pull Wu Youdao down and execute him by shooting." Song Hu pointed at Wu Youdao, who was limp on the ground like a pile of mud, and shouted loudly.

"Obey!" The guards standing on both sides came out, picked up Wu Youdao who was limp on the ground, and headed down the high platform.

After a while, several gunshots rang out, and Wu Youdao was punished by Ming Zhengdian.

Things have progressed until now, and the sky is gradually getting dark. Song Hu looked at the darkened night sky, and shouted to the people below: "Fathers and folks, it's getting late now, go back to sleep, my subordinates tonight The soldiers will be patrolling the city, you don’t have to be afraid.”

Under Song Hu's earnest persuasion, the people who gathered together retreated one after another.

When all the people left.Song Hu pointed at these rout soldiers, and said, "Put all these rout soldiers under my custody, and take them back early tomorrow morning."

"Obey!" The soldiers guarding the routs clasped their fists at Song Hu, and escorted the routs to Zhenwuwei's camp in the city.

Zhenwuwei's camp is big enough to hold these people.

All the soldiers and horses led by Song Hu were stationed in Daizhou City.

"My lord, the commander-in-chief has come to order."

Song Hu was sitting in the big tent when a messenger rushed in.

Song Hu looked at the messenger and asked, "What orders does the Commander-in-Chief have?"

The messenger took out a bamboo tube and handed it to Song Hu. "My lord, the commander-in-chief asked my lord to lead the soldiers and horses and bring the prisoners back to Yanmen Pass in time tomorrow, except for the soldiers who stayed in Daizhou City."

Song Hu opened the bamboo tube, checked the wax, and then opened the bamboo tube. After opening, Song Hu took out the documents inside and looked at it carefully.

After reading it, Song Hu put the bamboo tube and the documents inside on the table, and waved to the messenger. "I see, you go down and rest first."

Looking at the back of the messenger leaving, Song Hu set his sights on the military counselor Liu Tichun, "Mr. Liu, the commander-in-chief intends to keep you here to preside over the affairs of Daizhou City. What do you think?"

Liu Tichun sat at Song Hu's lower seat, he said with a smile: "Since it is the command of the commander-in-chief, I will obey it of course!"

"Well, this is the order of the commander-in-chief, take a look." Song Hu said and handed the document in the bamboo tube to Liu Tichun.

Liu Tingchun took the document and read it carefully.

The content of the document is very simple, in addition to asking Song Hu to lead the troops to escort the captives to Yanmen Pass, it is also to let Liu Tichun lead 1000 troops to station in Daizhou City.

The document also said that when Liu Tichun was stationed in Daizhou City, he was going to clean up the bullies and evil gentry in Daizhou City, distribute land to those people who did not have land, and at the same time maintain the law and order of Daizhou City.

Of course, all of this is only temporary. After Zhao Wen takes the whole of Shanxi into his hands, he will send officials back again.

At present, Liu Tianchun's most important task is to ensure the stability of Daizhou City, and at the same time hold Daizhou City firmly in his hands.

……

The next day when the sky was bright, Song Hu left a thousand households for Liu Tichun, and then led the rest of the troops to escort the captives to Yanmen Pass.

At noon, Song Hu finally arrived at Yanmen Pass.

"grown ups!"

Song Hu came to Zhao Wen's big tent, and saluted Zhao Wen who was sitting on the main seat with his fists clasped.

Zhao Wen stood up and said with a smile on his face, "How is it in Daizhou City?"

"Returning to my lord, it's not bad in Daizhou City. After I broke through Daizhou City, I followed the order of my lord to put down the chaos in the city first, and then proceed to clean up the bullies and evil gentry in Daizhou City. However, because of lack of time, my subordinates It hasn't been cleaned up completely." Song Hu replied.

With a smile on his face, Zhao Wen said indifferently: "That's why I left Liu Tichun in Daizhou City, that's enough, let's not talk about it, how many people have you captured?"

"My lord, there are more than 600 prisoners in total. The governor of Daizhou and the commander of Zhenwuwei were all captured by his subordinates."

"That's right, 2000 prisoners. In this way, including my captives at Yanmen Pass, there will be more than 3000 people and nearly [-] people. With sufficient manpower, the speed of railway construction will be much faster.

Now that Liu Wu has led the rear army to Yanmen Pass, these captives, together with my captives at Yanmen Pass, can just be escorted back by Liu Wu. Zhao Wen nodded in satisfaction.

Liu Wu led the troops who had just arrived at Yanmen Pass this morning. After all, the troops led by Liu Wu were basically infantry, and their speed was much slower than that of Zhao Wen and Song Hu.

At this time, Liu Wu had just finished packing up the affairs in the army, and led a few personal guards to Zhao Wen's big tent.

Not long after, Liu Wu and his personal guards appeared in Zhao Wen's big tent.

"Hey, Cao Cao is here! You came in time." Zhao Wen looked at Liu Wu who was slowly walking into the big tent, and pointed to the chair next to the big tent with a smile on his face, "Sit down! "

Liu Wu clasped his fist at Zhao Wen, thanked him, and sat down.

Song Hu sat next to Liu Wu.

Zhao Wen sat on the main seat and looked at Liu Wu, "You came just in time, and I have something to do for you."

Liu Wu stood up and cupped his fists at Zhao Wen, "Your subordinate obeys orders!"

Zhao Wen cleared his throat and said seriously: "Now there are more than [-] prisoners in our department. These prisoners need to be sent back to Xuan Town as soon as possible and handed over to Sun Yuanhua."

"Your subordinates take orders!" Liu Wu shouted loudly at Zhao Wen.

"Of course, you just arrived today, so it's okay to rest for a day. And you don't need to escort the prisoners yourself, you only need to send a few hundred people." Zhao Wen said solemnly.

"After dealing with these matters, the Chinese army and the front army attacked Shanxi Town, and the rear army and horses were in the rear, gathering and appeasing the people in the occupied city."

"Follow your lord's order!" Everyone in the big account stood up and categorically shouted at Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen nodded, "Now you can arrange the order and leave in two days!"

……

When Zhao Wen's order spread throughout the barracks, all the soldiers were gearing up.

Song Hu returned to the camp and began to transfer the prisoners to Liu Wu's rear army.

The prisoners of the central army were also transferred to the rear army at this moment.

All the captives were transferred, and Liu Wu sent people to take them all under custody.

At dawn the next day, Liu Wu sent 600 people to escort the prisoners to Xuanzhen.

At this time, Sun Yuanhua led his construction team to start building a railway to Datong Town from Xuan Town.

Datong Town separates Shanxi and Xuanzhen, so the construction of the railway must go to Datong Town first.

From Zhao Wen's departure to the present, Sun Yuanhua led the workers who built the railway to build a total of less than [-] miles.

Sun Yuanhua stood on the construction site of the railway, looking at the dusty construction site with a sad face, "It has been almost half a month since the start of the sir, and it has only been built for less than [-] miles. The speed is really high." It's too slow."

"My lord, there is no other way. The railways from Xuanzhen to Zhangjiakou and Zhangjiakou to Longmenbao have not yet been completed. We don't have enough manpower, so the progress will inevitably slow down a lot. Wait until your lord brings the prisoners who built the railways. And after those two railways are completed, our speed will be much faster." A supervisor on the construction site followed Sun Yuanhua, looked at the extremely busy construction site, and said to Sun Yuanhua.

Sun Yuanhua let out a long breath, and the worry on his face eased a little, "I hope so, otherwise, our speed will be too slow."
