Chapter 141 Seventy-eight heads!
Liang Pengfei hurried into the lobby of the governor's mansion. At this time, several high-ranking officials had gathered in the governor's mansion. Governor Fu Kang'an, Zhao Chenglin provided by the Guangdong Marine Division, and Guo Shixun, the governor of Guangdong, had already sat in the hall. Fu Kang'an looked calm and said nothing.
"I have seen you, my lords." After entering the lobby, Liang Pengfei did not dare to neglect and quickly saluted these powerful people.
"Peng Fei, look at this, the emergency military report just came back from the Xin'an Water Division Camp." After Fu Kang'an nodded slightly to Liang Pengfei, he turned around and nodded to Master Zeng beside him.
Master Zeng quickly reported the army to Liang Pengfei. As soon as Liang Pengfei opened the military newspaper, he saw the familiar handwriting of Wu Liang, the general manager of the camp. After reading the content of the book clearly, Liang Pengfei couldn't help but change his color: "What?!"
The flood of Nantou Village, a new camp of Guangdong sailors, was attacked by hundreds of thieves, with heavy casualties. Eighty-five patrolmen stationed in Nantou Village, except for seven people who escaped, all died, and what's more abominable is that all the heads were cut off and inserted into the wooden shed railings of the camp... Liang Pengfei's heart was cold, pinching the thin one. The big hand of the thin official document trembled like the bleak withered leaves in the autumn wind. Eighty-five patrols are those selected by Liang Pengfei from the old, weak, sick and disabled who are no longer suitable to be soldiers, but can at least be responsible for patrolling, arresting thieves, maintaining public security and other tasks.
Originally, Liang Pengfei swept away the smugglers, which not only made them famous, but also shocked the thieves who were operating outside Xin'an County. Although the opposite side of the strait was the territory of the family, with the relationship between Liang Pengfei and Shi Xianggu, there should be no unnecessary conflicts.
--------------------
However, Liang Pengfei, who thought he was safe, never thought that he had left the Xin'an Water Division Camp for less than six days, and such a tragedy happened. How could Liang Pengfei not be shocked? However, what shocked him more was Zhao Chengling said.
"Those who attacked the garrison of our Qingshui Division are not others, but the group of Shi Xianggu, the thieves." Zhao Cheng's face turned blue and said gloomily.
In the military newspaper, Wu Liang recorded the original descriptions of the surviving patrols, with purple flags and stone war flags.
And after killing all the people and blowing their heads down and inserting them on the fence, the pirates specially left a letter to tell those people that because of the private auditing behavior of the Xin'an Water Division, they lost their Xiyi allies and one of the most important smuggling channels. Let him know that this is ** naked revenge.
Hearing Zhao Chengling's words and the content of the official document, Liang Pengfei looked angry and angry, but there was a cold smile in his heart.
If this matter was done by Xiyi pirates, Liang Pengfei would believe it. If it was done by those other pirate groups, Liang Pengfei would definitely believe it. Even if Zhao Chenglan told Liang Pengfei that this matter was done by another colleague of the sailor camp who didn't like him, Liang Pengfei could understand it, but if it was done by Shi Xianggu. Even if Liang Pengfei travels through time again, he will never believe this fact.
There is only one explanation. Some people want to destroy the relationship between Liang Pengfei and the Shi family, sow discord, and try to let the Shiliang families have a dispute again, and destroy the stable environment of peaceful coexistence between the Shiliang family. Liang Pengfei's sensitive nose has smelled something called conspiracy.
"Liang Shoubei, early tomorrow morning, you will rush back to the new camp to appease the soldiers, rectify the defense, and don't let such things happen again, and humiliate me, understand?" Fu Kang'an said lightly, but there was faint displeasure in his words.
He also knew that it was no wonder that the Xin'an sailor in front of him was guarding. There was a flood in Nantou Village, and there were less than a hundred people. Hundreds of people on the other side suddenly attacked and were caught off guard. It was not surprising that no one escaped.
But this is really not good news for the unparalleled Fukang'an on the ground, who just went to Qianlong to praise the public security of Liangguang.
"The officer obeys the order, and the Governor can rest assured that after the officer returns, he will rectify the defense to prevent such incidents from happening again." Liang Pengfei Liang Pengfei gritted his teeth and said with hatred, and his eyes were full of blood-eating light.
"No matter who did it, I have to repay you twice, otherwise, I will write it upside down." Liang Pengfei swore secretly in his heart.
Fu Kang'an seemed to feel Liang Pengfei's anger. After a slight pause, he slowed down his tone: "Pengfei, after going back, don't make trouble without authorization. The thieves of the family are powerful, far from being invincible to you. You are the one I like. Don't lose your big because of your small size."
After returning to the house, Liang Pengfei still felt that his heart was hurt. Although those patrols were not Liang's children, at least they were his own subordinates. After more than two months of getting along with each other, there was still a friendship.
But in such a blink of an eye, seventy-eight fresh lives were fleeting, and their heads were cut off and inserted into the wooden stake, which made Liang Pengfei's heart really hold back a fire, a burst of anger that could burn the fine iron.
"The sooner you give this letter to Shi Xiang's hands, the better." Liang Pengfei handed over the envelope to Wu Qianjin's hand, and then turned his head and ordered the scholar Bai.
When Mr. Liang didn't know that he had returned to the house, when he heard about it, he couldn't help clapping the table and scolding her. The dog said, there must be someone who doesn't like the two families of Shiliang.
"It's true, but who has such a suspicion?" Liang Pengfei frowned tightly.
The official Liang, who was scolding, turned his eyes and said, "Pengfei, do you think it was done by the red flag gang of rabbits? Didn't you tell me last time that Zheng Yi, Zheng Lianchang's son, wanted to marry Shi Xiang, but was rejected?"
"However, Aunt Shi Xiang just refused, and she should not have leaked my affairs with her." Liang Pengfei shook his head and rejected Dad's conjecture.
The official Liang rolled his eyes. Could it be the governor of the customs who did it?
"It's possible. This time, his nephew died and lost nearly a million taels of silver. It's really possible to take risks and want to take revenge." Liang Pengfei nodded and continued, "However, my son thinks that the biggest suspicion is the Zheng family."
Hearing his son's words, Liang's face was black: "Son, you are playing with your father, aren't you? Just now you said that it had nothing to do with the Zheng family. Why do you say that they are the most suspicious now?
"Dad, I just thought of it. Although Aunt Shi Xiang will not reveal my relationship with her, the news that the two families of Shiliang jointly rejected the enemy... It's hard to guarantee that the Zheng family, who are also pirates, will not know." Liang Pengfei's words made the official Liang suddenly.
"This truth makes sense. Then the Zheng family really wants to swallow the Shi family, but the Zheng family is dominant. How can the world go?" The official Liang's eyes are also very vicious.
"I think it is precisely because they only think that our old Liang family and the Shi family are temporary cooperative relations. If they use the name of the Shi family to attack the new camp, they will not only provoke the relationship between our Liang family and the Shi family, but also arouse the anger of the court. The power of the Shi family is naturally not enough to compete on both sides, then, even if It was the Shi family who didn't ask for help. After the Zheng family, who was also a pirate of the family, extended a helping hand..." Liang Pengfei's face became more and more gloomy.
"What a Zheng Lianchang, who can have such a scheming, is worthy of being a great figure of tens of thousands of people in the Red Flag." Liang's official smiled strangely, and there was a cold murderous intention hidden in his eyes.
--------------------
"But all this is just our guess. We can't count it. We can only know the truth until our son returns to the new camp and understands the ins and outs of the matter." Liang Pengfei stood up and took a deep breath. Although he hated to wave the knife in his hands to his compatriots, he must protect his interest groups and ensure that his ideals can continue to develop smoothly. Then he must rely on the knife in his hand to maintain a safe environment.
"All the stones that hinder my progress will only end up with one." Liang Pengfei looked at the bloody sun outside the window and said faintly.
The official Liang looked at the son whose face was full of sunset halo. On his young and handsome face, there were things and emotions that he had never seen before. His seemingly verbose words were like thunder in Liang's heart.
Liang Yuanxia opened her mouth, and finally shook her head and stopped saying anything. At this moment, he found that he seemed to be unable to see through the adult son.
"When I grow up, I have my own opinions." Liang Yuanxia seemed to have a sense of old age. Similarly, his heart was full of inexplicable expectations. Perhaps the goal of his son was far higher and farther than he thought... so far away that he didn't even dare to think about it.
"He is my son after all, and I will naturally be on his side." When Liang Yuanxia left, there was a faint smile on the corners of her mouth, which was very satisfied.
"Please guard and forgive me." Mr. Wu Qian, a group of soldiers, and the seven patrolmen who escaped from death and were still wrapped in bloody gauze, all lowered their heads gloomyly.
Liang Pengfei, who had just rushed back to the Xin'an camp, jumped off the boat. Seeing these people, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. He hardened his heart and pulled Mr. Wu Qian up with a cold face: "Get up, get up, what are you doing? Do you think that if you kneel at me, our enemy will bow down and surrender? Can the names of our 75 dead brothers be found?! Answer me!"
"No!" Wu Liang replied in a low voice.
"My ears are a little back, and I can't hear what you're talking about. Mr. Wu Qian, can you speak a little louder?" Liang Pengfei's wild eyes swept over those soldiers who had looked up at him. His great body was as straight as the undefeated god of war, and the roar would be overshadowed even by the thunder in the sky. And you, your voice is hoarse, or you are deaf, answer me!"
