Xiao Chen took the lead and knelt down to worship the more than a hundred dead heroes. The thousands of households behind him dared not to kneel down.
On the beach, dozens of military attachés knelt on the ground and bowed three times in succession.
A soldier from the Shenji Army shouted, "Raise the blunderbuss," according to Xiao Chen's instructions beforehand.
Three hundred exquisite fire blunderbuss were held in the hands of the captain of Shenji.
"Light the fire." The captain gave another order.
"Chi chi chi." I remembered the sound of a burning fire.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening explosion sounded, and more than three hundred blue smoke rose into the sky. After a while, the blue smoke merged together, like a huge cloud, covering those on the ground.
Bodies were surrounded in the middle.
Xiao Chen slowly stood up and said slowly: "Push the corpse into the sea. Their lives have been dedicated to the area they are defending. Let them stay in this sea area forever."
The soldiers of the Shenji Service put away their guns and began to take action.
Pushing all the corpses on the beach, along with the wooden boards underneath them, into the sea one by one.
When it was time to get into the crib under Wu Shuisheng from the Jiangwan Village, Zhang Xiaozhong from the Chengnan Village came to Xiao Chen's side.
"Sir, Wu Qianhu and I are from the same hometown, and our relationship is even more like that of brothers. Can you let your subordinates personally send him into the sea?" Looking up, Zhang Xiaozhong's sad eyes were full of expectation.
"Okay, then you can send Wu Qianhu on his last journey." Xiao Chen nodded.
Walking to Wu Shuisheng's crib, Zhang Xiaozhong picked up the half-human-high fire blunderbuss leaning next to him and gently placed it on the crib.
He picked up the exquisite crossbow and put it on the boat.
After taking a look at Wu Shuisheng's purple face, he let out a long sigh, grabbed the edge of the crib with both hands, and slowly pushed it into the sea water.
When Wu Shuisheng's body and the cot were completely gone, Xiao Chen slowly turned around.
"From today onwards, Songmen Guards will thoroughly and fully launch the Japanese pirate extermination operation. Previously, someone violated the orders of Commander Tang Xingtang and sometimes did not carry out the orders he issued. I do not intend to continue to investigate. However.
, From today on, if there are still people who continue to violate the law, I don’t care whether you are a thousand households or a hundred households, I will pick off your Wusha as soon as possible, and pick off your head at the same time."
Xiao Chen's eyes swept across everyone's faces coldly.
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, everyone looked at each other.
There was anger, disdain, and even more unwillingness in his eyes.
What happened to Dongchang? Even if you have overwhelming power of life and death, can you still change the entire Songmen Guards?
Even if they are afraid of Dongchang's statement, everyone obeys Tang Xing's command in front of you, Dongchang, making Songmen Guards look like they are united.
But Dongchang can't stay here forever, he will eventually leave one day.
Now there is harmony. When you leave, Songmen Guards will not only return to the previous situation, but may also transfer their resentment towards Dongchang to the commander Tang Xing.
By that time, the contradiction between Yin and Yang no longer exists.
It will become a complete failure to carry out orders, causing the Songmen Guards to truly fall apart.
When that day comes, look back at today.
Aren’t the things you announced a big joke?
Xiao Chen was very clear about these murmuring thoughts in everyone's mind.
If you don't kill a few people in front of them, they won't really take Dongchang into their hearts.
Xiao Chen raised his right hand and pointed at the military attache who was in the crowd just now and said that there was not a single Japanese pirate left at Jiangwan Station.
This man is thin and small, wearing the clothes of a hundred households in the imperial army.
A pair of triangular eyes looked around erratically.
"come here."
"Sir, are you calling me?" Baihu pointed to the tip of his nose and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it's you, come here." Xiao Chen nodded.
Baihu was in a state of confusion as he walked out of the crowd and came to Xiao Chen.
"Do you know why Dongchang called all the military attaches from Songmen Guard here?" Xiao Chen asked lightly.
"Announce the fact that Jiangwan was attacked by Japanese pirates and all were killed," Baihu said.
"that's it?"
"May I ask, sir, what else is there?" Baihu said with confusion on his face.
"Dongchang called everyone here just to show everyone how much it cost a hundred-household office to think about the people and carry out the tasks assigned by the imperial court."
"..." Baihu was speechless.
"Although they died, they died for the well-being of the people. They died because they offended the Japanese pirates and the interests of some people who colluded with the Japanese pirates, and were jointly attacked by these people. As an army of the Ming Dynasty, Jiangwan is the
Our example. Kneeling down and worshiping is to show them the incomparable respect and sadness in our hearts."
While speaking, Xiao Chen's eyes swept over the faces of the other military attachés one by one.
Baihu lowered his head, but felt puzzled in his heart.
A hundred households were killed by Japanese pirates. Apart from showing their incompetence, this incident has so many other emotions.
"Today, standing here are all the military attaches of Songmen Guard. I can't help but tell you that among the Japanese pirates who attacked Jiangwansuo, there were soldiers and military attachés of Songmen Guard who were missing at sea before. The Japanese pirates bullied our common people.
Our own army, driven by interests, does not hesitate to betray the army and join forces with the Japanese pirates. Whether there are any spies of the Japanese pirates among you, you know for yourself. I don’t want to pursue the past things, but in the future, when the guards act in a unified manner,
If anyone continues to collude with the Japanese pirates, then let your nine tribes eat and drink well in advance and enjoy the few remaining years of their lives."
Looking at Xiao Chen, everyone had a variety of expressions on their faces.
But no one dared to stand up and question Xiao Chen's doubts about him.
Seeing everyone's silence, Xiao Chen smiled.
"As an army of the imperial court, we should march forward bravely, carry out the orders of the imperial court without hesitation, and protect the peace of the country. But our Songmen Guards are a strange flower in the imperial army. There are many cheap people in the Songmen Guards. When we meet the Japanese pirates, we will
It is retreat and avoidance. Inside the guardhouse, there is endless scheming and the courage to compete with each other. For these people, Dongchang can only kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, and make an appearance to make these people feel sad.
There are truly many.”
As he said that, Xiao Chen looked at the hundreds of households, and a sunny smile appeared on his face: "It stands to reason that as a hundred households, on such a solemn occasion, you would say what you want to say about all the dead people in Jiangwan."
If you make disrespectful remarks, you will at most be scolded, but you will not be beheaded. But now, Dongchang wants to kill chickens to show the dogs, and there are no suitable chickens to kill, so you are unlucky."
At this time, everyone finally realized that the reason why Xiao Chen called these hundreds of households out of the team was because he planned to kill him.
On this occasion, if he dared to say such disrespectful words, he would not wink.
But just because he wanted to kill him, did Dongchang go too far?
A Qianhu also walked out of the team with a straight face.
He raised his fists towards Xiao Chen and said, "Sir, we are all very sad that all Jiangwan soldiers were killed. But if you kill people just because of a word, this behavior may be a bit inappropriate."
"Jiangwan insisted on fighting the Japanese pirates head-on. Although all of them were killed, in my heart, each of them is a hero. Every disrespectful word towards the heroes is an indirect support for the Japanese pirates. Since you have stood up, kill one
I think the chicken's deterrence is a bit small, and two chickens are about the same."
Xiao Chen had a smile on his face, but no matter who looked at it, there was endless coldness hidden under that smile.
The Qianhu pointed at his Qianhu uniform and smiled coldly: "I am a Haiphong Qianhu appointed by the imperial court. You want to kill me too?"
"In my eyes, there is no difference between thousands or hundreds of households and ordinary people." Xiao Chen's words were extremely cold, leaving no room for maneuver.
When they heard that they were going to kill themselves, the hundreds of households turned pale and trembled with fear.
Staring at Xiao Chen, he said tremblingly: "Sir, we are all distant relatives of the Commander-in-Chief of Zhejiang Province. Please think twice."
"Relatives of Zhao Wuming?" Xiao Chen's eyes widened and he looked at the others: "I heard that many of you are relatives of Zhao Wuming. It is precisely because of this that you dare to attack Commander Tang Xing.
You can say one thing and do another. It just so happens that when you go back today, you can send a message to Zhao Wuming and ask him to wash his neck and wait for Dongchang to come to his door."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chen's figure shook, and in an instant, he stood on the same spot again.
However, with two "dong dong" sounds, the heads of Baihu and Qianhu standing in front of them had already rolled to the ground.
Then there were two more "puff-plop-plop" sounds, and their bodies fell to the ground.
