Chapter 508 Conspiracy
County Magistrate Xiong took the people from the yamen to leave, but on this dam, there were not only Wang Wanchun and others. There were also a group of strong people who were always paying attention to the water situation, so naturally Wang Wanchun and the others could not do anything. After thinking for a while, Wang Wanchun came to a relatively high place and bowed and shouted: "Let me listen to my words, fellow villagers!"
When the people heard the sound, they found that it was the general who had just helped everyone block the breach. They listened carefully to him and saw what he would have to announce. Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted by themselves, Wang Wanchun continued: "Everyone has worked hard on this dam for several days. I believe there are many work at home for you to do. Since the soldiers who are in the army have come here with military orders, we should do our best. Moreover, we brothers are more experienced than you. I think you should go home and rest for a night first, and it is not too late to come for us after tomorrow and after tomorrow!"
"How does this make it?" A man who looked very strong and like an iron tower shook his head after hearing Wang Wanchun's words: "This is our hometown, and behind this dam is our relatives. How can we let the military men work hard for a night after rushing so many roads? We all have the strength, and it will not be a problem to guard him for three days and three nights..."
After hearing what this man said, all the strong men agreed: "Yes, we are very grateful that all the soldiers can come to help us guard this place, and we dare not let go..."
Seeing this, Wang Wanchun felt anxious. He had rushed so many times, but it was not really to help them guard the embankment. The adults in Hangzhou were still waiting to bring back the news of success. But these people were very firm and they couldn't force themselves to leave. This would arouse the suspicion of these people. What should we do? After thinking for a while, Wang Wanchun said: "I understand everyone's feelings very well, but there are really no need to keep so many people on this small embankment. It is enough to have us brothers. I am ordered to come here, so I dare not let the people take this risk again. Otherwise, if someone with a heart knows, he will sue us on the Shangfeng. Please understand our difficulties..." As he said that, he bowed all over.
Everyone was ordinary people, but they didn't understand what was going on in the officialdom. When he heard that he was serious, he hesitated. Wang Wanchun saw this and said while the iron was hot: "You see, it's very dangerous this night, so we soldiers are watching. When it's daytime, you will change us again. In this way, you have done your best, and we will not be criticized. What do you think?" All the people looked at the man who had just spoken. Obviously, this person has a great status among these people.
After pondering for a while, the man said, "Since that's the case, I'll listen to the generals. By the morning of tomorrow, I'll bring people to change the generals. Let's go home with me. You haven't been home these days, so it's time to go home to see it."
After hearing what he said, everyone nodded and responded. Seeing that he was so appealing, Wang Wanchun felt aroused and asked again: "I dare to ask what this brother is, we will all be brothers in trouble in the future."
"Your Majesty Jun asked, my name is Heizi." The man smiled heartily and led people to retreat from the dike.
"This is a man. If it weren't for this, I really wanted to make friends with him." Wang Wanchun sighed, then looked at the river water surging outside the embankment, and his face became gloomy.
The sky was completely dark, and the movements in the town in the distance were gone. It was obvious that the strong men had all returned home. At this time, a soldier came to Wang Wanchun and whispered: "Master Qianhu, now they are all back, and I have sent my brothers to guard the place everywhere. No one will come again. When will we take action?"
"Wait a little longer, it's not too late to take action after all the people in the town have fallen asleep. Otherwise, if they are asked to find out that something is wrong in advance and run out, we will be in vain and there is still the danger of being caught." Wang Wanchun said with a deep face.
"But in this way, the people in this town will..." The man said in a vain.
"Then they can only blame themselves for their bad luck. They do not care about minor matters when doing big things. The adults have told them that they must do no flaws and no omissions. The guy named Tang is still in our Zhejiang."
After half an hour passed, it was already the second day of the second day. Wang Wanchun waved his hand and said, "Okay, do it! Be careful, don't make the hole too big, otherwise we will even get in."
Hundreds of officers and soldiers agreed in a low voice, then picked up hidden tools and came to the stone wall of the dam, and knocked on the stone wall with hammers, shovels and other objects. The others came to a high ground first under the leadership of Wang Wanchun, and retreated together after those people were finished.
The jingle that deliberately stopped the force was not too obvious in the sound of wind and rain and precipitation. Wang Wanchun looked around nervously, fearing that a group of people would suddenly appear at this time. When he looked around suspiciously, he suddenly saw a group of people appearing in the darkness. "Who is this? Why are there anyone here now?" Wang Wanchun was anxious and had murderous intentions, and hurriedly signaled several soldiers to follow him.
The people who came were actually Heizi and some civilians who had just left the embankment. They did not pay attention to the faint sound, and said to Wang Wanchun and others with a simple smile on their faces: "General, we are afraid that those who have not eaten overnight will not be able to stand it, so we specially asked the women in the village to make some food for you, so you can just make do with it." As they said that, the few people took out the food from the basket they carried and handed it to Wang Wanchun and others.
Seeing that they didn't find anything, Wang Wanchun and others were relieved: "Since that's the case, I'll thank you all the older brothers." After taking the basket and food, Wang Wanchun said again: "You will come to serve us tomorrow morning, so go back and rest now."
"Okay!" Heizi nodded, and wanted to turn around and leave. Suddenly, someone beside him looked at the direction of the dam and said, "Brother Heizi, what's the sound?"
"Huh?" Heizi also raised his ears when he heard this and listened carefully. However, he did not notice that Wang Wanchun and others were already looking fierce. "It was the sound of iron chisels and other holes digging..." Heizi was obviously a person with stonemason experience. He knew what it was when he heard this sound. Then his face changed and he looked at Wang Wanchun: "General Wang, what are you doing?"
"Why are you going to come back? You can only take your life!" Wang Wanchun smiled grimly, and the steel knife in his hand suddenly pulled out, stabbing Heizi's chest. Heizi was shocked, but his skills were very flexible. When he saw the knife, he quickly flashed to the side, but he was stabbed in the shoulder. But the other people were not as lucky as him. In an instant, several officers and soldiers stabbed them into the vital point with their swords, and they saw that they were not alive.
Since he had made a move, Wang Wanchun had no intention of leaving a living, and then he slashed at Heizi's neck with another knife. Heizi was shocked and hurriedly rolled and rushed to the other side. However, he was first killed and surrounded by the soldiers. It was not that easy to leave.
"Who are they? Why do they kill us? What's the matter with that voice..." Although when his life was threatened, Heizi still remembered the voice on the dam: "Can they want to..." At the moment when he was distracted, a knife had already arrived in front of him. He was so anxious that he rolled to the side, but he was still hit by the left hip by this knife.
Seeing that Heizi was about to die in the hands of these people, a sudden sound of water came from the embankment, and then with a few rumbling sounds, the water that had been blocked outside rushed in. The embankment that had been persisting for more than half a month was finally destroyed!
The water came straight to him, which scared Wang Wanchun and others. They knew that the water was quite strong. If they stayed for a while, they would be submerged. At this time, they were no longer able to take Heizi's life. Several people rushed up and arrived at a safe place in a few seconds. When they turned back, the place just now was already a country of marsh, and even the shadow of Heizi was gone.
"It seems that even if this kid dies without losing blood, he will be drowned by the water. Lord Qianhu, our work has been done, so let's go back and report the news." One of the soldiers said excitedly.
"Let's go!" After staying for a while, Wang Wanchun nodded, then left Jiande without looking back with five hundred heads.
Xiong Can has not yet fallen asleep in the county government office of Jiande County. Although he had returned from the dam, he was still worried about the situation there. A young man who was somewhat similar to him but was obviously more fierce than him, was his younger brother Xiong Hui. Xiong Hui was from the Jinyiwei in the capital. This time he had a fake this time and came to Jiande to visit his brother. However, he didn't expect that Jiande would be flooded at this time, and he could only help with his brother.
"Brother, it's already the second update, so you can go and take a rest first." Xiong Hui looked at his brother who was still paced and said, "With the help of the officers and soldiers of Zhejiang garrison, the embankment here must be stable."
"How can I sleep? Even if the water has receded, the loss in our county will be huge. At that time... hey, you won't understand even if you say it..."
"Don't look at your brothers with old eyes. After I followed Lord Tang, I knew much more than before." Xiong Hui said disapprovingly.
