Local chronicles record the annual events of a place. Many major events are reported to the capital and then recorded in the history books. Local chronicles can be regarded as the historical records of a place.
Yunjing sat in the teahouse, drinking tea while flipping through the local chronicles of Fengyang County with his mind, focusing on the past twenty years. He glanced at some small things and skipped them. When he saw the group of gangsters appearing in Fengyang County After recording, he became more and more frightened.
Sixteen years ago, in the summer, those gangs of villains came to Fengyang County. It can be said that this place has changed since then.
In the first year they came, there were only more than fifty people on record. The first crime they committed that year was to rob a manor outside the county. The owner of the manor was named Zhang, and his family of eighty-three were killed by the evil gang. The bandits were slaughtered and all the gold, silver, grain, oil and cloth were robbed, and the manor was burnt to ashes.
In the same year, they also plundered two or three such wealthy people's estates, and killed more than 300 souls under their swords. The details are unknown.
It is simply full of evil and heinous crimes!
It was still that year, they controlled the official road, robbed caravan travelers, and suffered many victims. From then on, no one dared to walk that road without a group of more than three to five hundred people.
Walking like this, the government was angered and nearly 500 soldiers were dispatched to encircle and suppress them. Unexpectedly, the thieves were too cunning and powerful. They paid less than ten casualties and killed nearly half of the people on the government side. The government was also killed. Collapse had to retreat. In that battle, the villains gained a reputation, and people with evil intentions took the initiative to join them.
From then on, they lived in a stronghold and took root in Wohu Mountain, more than 60 miles north of the county seat. They were known as the Tiger Stronghold!
After taking root, they became even crazier. The official road to the north of the county became their source of wealth, and the villages in all directions became their source of food. They often kidnapped young and beautiful girls from the surrounding areas and went up to the mountains for fun.
They were lawless. How could the government sit idly by and do nothing. The next year, the magistrate of Fengyang County planned for nearly a year to mobilize a thousand soldiers from other places to personally lead people to suppress the bandits.
That time, there were so many people on the government side that the bandits did not dare to confront them head-on. They abandoned the stronghold and fled to the mountains without a trace. The government was furious and burned the Tiger Village to the ground.
"However, we never expected that not long after, the gang of villains came back. Not only did they rebuild the village, but they also assassinated the county magistrate when he went to the countryside to observe the people's sentiments!
In the year when the Fengyang County magistrate was assassinated, the capital sent a new scholar to serve as the county magistrate. He had innate martial arts skills. His main purpose of coming here was to eliminate the gang of evil bandits in Menghu Village.
He planned for more than half a year, secretly mobilized more than a thousand soldiers to surround the Tiger Village at night, and personally went into battle to kill the enemy.
That killing caught Menghu Village by surprise and killed nearly half of the evil bandits. However, Menghu Village actually dug a secret tunnel early. Knowing that they were outmatched, most of the people ran away. The county magistrate of the innate realm and Menghu Village The masters had fought against each other, but they were no match for each other. The village master was also an innate master, and the county magistrate was even injured!
It stands to reason that nearly half of the Menghu Village was killed, and the village leader and half of the members ran away. They should have calmed down for a while. However, they took crazy revenge and massacred two villages, namely Xiaolin Village and Erdaoliangzizhai. The total massacre was There were more than 600 villagers, and they even said that if the government dared to target them again, they would retaliate even more crazily on the common people.
It¡¯s simply lawless.
Because two villages were massacred, the county magistrate who was a congenital Jinshi was dismissed from his post less than a year after taking office because of his poor governance!
This is officialdom. If such a big mess occurs under the government, one must be held solely responsible.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the money and life and the shameless hat, simply ignore the gangsters, and only worked for a year before using connections to transfer away, leaving the mess to the next person
Over the years, Fengyang County has had nearly ten county magistrates, but none of them have been able to get rid of the gangsters. The bandits have been suppressed every year without success. Instead, the gangs have grown stronger.
Although the counties and states all made efforts to eliminate the evil bandits during this period, as the gang became more powerful and had numerous spies, they got the news in advance and the government went to them. If they could beat them, they would kill them to death. If they couldn't beat them, they would run away in advance and then take revenge. For civilians, especially in recent years, border wars have occurred and the government has no time to take care of it. Menghu Village has become the overlord who is not afraid of the government.
In recent years, Menghu Village has lost sight of the gains from roadblocking and robbery. To the north of Fengyang County, there are two towns with more than a dozen villages, with a population of nearly 70,000. Menghu Village 'replaces' the government in collecting taxes, and they actually outperform the government. The charge is lower, but it does not cut off people's livelihood
Then, they mainly plundered the tax money transported from the county to the capital, as well as the military salary received from the superiors. In addition, they also sold salt and iron wine.??The uneven early days of tomorrow
Such a force is enough to be called terrifying.
The Tiger Village that has been running rampant for many years is really not a lie.
Yunjing's telekinesis was not affected by terrain obstacles. After careful observation, he discovered that there were actually four secret passages in Crouching Tiger Mountain, leading to different places. In addition, Yunjing could not escape from where their money and food were stored. of exploration.
One of the secret passages caught Yun Jing's attention. It did not lead to anywhere outside the mountain, but to the bottom of Crouching Tiger Mountain. However, it was still being excavated. Even at this late night, there were still people on it. Hundreds of people dug down under the threat of knives and whips from members of the Menghu Village.
The bottom of the mountain is made of hard rock, and it is very difficult to dig it manually. However, this secret tunnel has been dug for an unknown period of time, and it has now been dug down for more than a thousand meters.
Thinking of the way his master Li Qiuxian could easily tear rocks apart with his strength, Yun Jingxin said that if those three innate masters from Menghu Village were to dig, they probably wouldn¡¯t know how deep they would be.
But what are they digging for? Or is it really like Wan Fang heard about it, what are the people from Menghu Village looking for when they are entrenched in Crouching Tiger Mountain?
"Let me take a look"
