At this time, Wang Junlin faced countless looks of anxiety, resentment, or numbness, and walked onto the wooden platform with his hands behind his back. A group of soldiers behind him escorted more than a hundred people to the stand. Between him and countless other people, there were ten thousand people.
Elite army.
Wang Junlin walked up to the wooden platform, first glanced at the silent crowd, and then looked at Dong Bo who was looking at him with a group of government soldiers in the distance, with a smile on his lips.
After taking two steps forward, Wang Junlin faced hundreds of thousands of people. He exerted force on his Dantian and his voice could be heard for miles.
General, General Zhenyuan Wang Junlin, you must have known me before, but from today on, you must remember my appearance!"
"Since the beginning of winter last year, it has been snowing continuously. Until the beginning of spring this year, the sky was mostly gloomy and heavy snow fell from time to time, causing snow disasters in the three counties in the north of Yongzhou. Then rumors began to appear, saying that I set fire to the mountains and attracted divine punishment.
.”
"I have the courage to do what I do. When the Tuyuhun people invaded the border and attacked Xiping County last year, five thousand Turkic cavalry pretended to be Tuyuhun people and burned, killed and looted in our Zhangye County. I lured them into the Qilian Mountains. I really let them go.
The fire burned them all to death, and indeed burned to death some of the creatures in the mountains. But how many creatures can there be in the Qilian Mountains in the winter? As locals, don’t you know? This matter will make the old man
A disaster from heaven?"
"It's what I did. I'll admit it by patting my chest. But if it wasn't what I did, how could I admit it? Right and wrong, black and white, good and evil, justice lies in people's hearts. I know you don't believe it, but I have my say."
It’s hard to argue. Today we have brought 174 people. Many of these people should be familiar to you. They have been scattered throughout Jincheng County in the past few days, spreading rumors, making up rumors, and doing some things in the name of me.
When I heard about the oppression of the people, I was very angry, so I sent people to arrest them!"
As he spoke, Wang Junlin turned his head, the smile in his eyes gradually turned cold, and said in a loud voice: "Now who will these people instruct them, what is the purpose, the right and wrong, let me explain clearly to everyone in front of everyone.
"
The two soldiers guarding the person on the far right pushed him forward. The man's rather fat body staggered two steps and was pushed to stand in front of the stage.
"This man is Li Zheng from Shili Town. We, the people who came from the north to Jincheng County, were all robbed of their belongings by him. He also said... and said it was for..."
Immediately, many victims recognized this person. Seeing how he was tied up, the crowd in the audience murmured in surprise.
Li Zheng from Shili Town had a pale face and a gloomy expression. He bowed his head and said nothing in front of the people in the city. Wang Junlin waited patiently for a moment, and when he saw that he didn't say a word, his brows suddenly furrowed.
The two soldiers were very discerning. When they saw this, they stepped forward and kicked the crook of Zheng Zheng's knees hard. Zheng Zheng plopped down and knelt in front of the stage facing the people. They screamed in pain.
"Tell all the truth, otherwise your life will be worse than death and your whole family will be killed." Shen Guang said coldly in a low voice beside him.
Hearing the murderous intent in Shen Guang's tone, Li Zheng, who was usually quite powerful in the town, twitched violently a few times, raised his head and glanced at the people, then lowered his head and cried loudly: "More than one person
A few months ago, after the snow disaster occurred, a steward from the Li family in Longxi came and called me and some people from the county together... In short, this rumor was spread by people from the Li family in Longxi. I led people to rob the victims' belongings and use them as
The title of Marquis of Qin An was also what Li Shi of Longxi ordered me to do."
The people in the audience were silent for a moment, and then burst into discussion.
At the edge of the clearing, Dong Bo, who was watching from afar, suddenly turned ugly. Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Dong Bo gritted his teeth, stamped his feet fiercely, turned around and ran towards Sima Mansion.
Wang Junlin said solemnly: "Next!"
In this way, more than a hundred people told the truth one by one, and the people were already in an uproar. Especially nearly half of them mentioned that the Li family in Longxi forcibly sent away the nobles and big landowners who owned food and hid them.
When the government tried to raise food but was unable to do so, the victims suddenly became angry and began to curse the Li family of Longxi loudly, making a noise as if a pot was exploding.
As the saying goes, if one or two people say this, these people may not believe it, but a full 174 people say this, and each of these people has some disaster victims who know them, and they spread it in the audience.
Ten, ten times a hundred times, I will believe ten points of what these people say.
"Some of you are under the instructions of some officials. Now tell them their names and official positions one by one. I guarantee that your family members will never be threatened or retaliated against."
Some people trembled all over, their faces quickly turned pale, their lips lost all color, and they pursed their lips without saying a word.
Shen Guang smiled coldly and said softly: "If you don't tell me, not only will you die, but your family members will also die."
These people suddenly shed more tears.
At this moment, they finally realized how stupid and desperate it was for them to take part in dealing with Wang Junlin.
On the wooden platform, Wang Junlin looked at the sky with his hands behind his hands, and said coldly: "I am waiting for your answer."
Question after question, Wang Junlin and Shen Guang pressed forward step by step.
These people probably understood at this time that their final day had come. In front of the people in the city, all the conspiracies were clearly explained. Even if Wang Junlin spared them, the people would not be able to spare them. As for the Li family in Longxi, they would definitely
I won’t stand up for them, let alone...
These people suddenly raised their heads and looked at the group of common people in the distance who were surrounded by Shen Guang's subordinates. This was their family. There was nostalgia and regret in their eyes.
The family's comfort finally broke through the last line of defense in their hearts. One of them took the lead and said sadly: "The person who instructs the villain is Hu Guangming, the recorder of Jincheng County..."
"The person who instructed me to do these things is not only the manager of the Li family in Longxi, but also Sun Hong, the director of the governor's office. Otherwise, I am an official..."
…
A series of official positions and names came out of these people's mouths. Every time a name was spoken, the people below cursed.
Looking up at the dumbfounded people in the audience, Wang Junlin suddenly raised his voice: "Did you hear clearly just now? Are you not deaf? You should all ask yourselves with conscience. Although I, Wang Junlin, have killed many Tuyuhun people,
Turks, have you ever done anything to harm our people in the Sui Dynasty? Have you ever done anything to be sorry for the elders of Yongzhou? How can you treat evil thieves like your relatives and good people like enemies? I also
I don’t expect you to thank me for protecting my country, and I have already raised food for you.”
