Chapter 17: The Temple of Valor, Posthumously Sealed

Wujun Gu County, yes, this county is also called Gu County. Dachu is so big, with many places, and occasionally there are duplicate names, which is normal.

Today, three days have passed since many representatives of aristocratic families were invited to watch the gunshots together.

Today is Xiong Yan's first time leaving the Wujun Prefect's Office, so many interested people are waiting to see Xiong Yan's next actions, intending to make plans.

Xiong Yan did not disappoint them and came to Gu County directly.

Gu County is the most sea-rely county in Wu County, and it is also a county that is often visited by pirates.

The probability of this county being patronized by pirates is the highest among the six counties and eighty-one counties in Jiangdong.

The county magistrate of this county is also the most difficult to be a member. When the pirates come, the county magistrate cannot run away. He must organize county soldiers to fight with them.

But to be honest, the strength of the county soldiers organized by Gu County alone is really limited.

There are few numbers, insufficient training, and insufficient equipment. Facing the cruel pirates on the other side, they are no match for them at all.

Most of the pirates are elite, have strong personal strength and skillful weapons. In the case of a one-man challenge, one person can even deal with three to five county soldiers at the same time.

At will, five or six pirates can form a small team and come and go freely in front of a 20 or 30 county soldiers.

What is even more helpless is that no matter how small the total number of pirates is, it will not be less than that of Gu County’s county soldiers.

Therefore, the previous Gu County Magistrate usually had two choices afterwards. One was to resolutely organize county soldiers and try his best to fight against the pirates. In the end, they could not be defeated, or they were killed on the spot, or they were retaliated afterwards.

In short, those who choose to confront each other will definitely not have a good end. Moreover, wealthy families who collude with the pirates will take the opportunity to deal with these officials who dare to resist firmly.

It can be said that over the years, every time a pirate attack has been a test for the imperial officials.

Those wealthy families who secretly colluded with pirates took advantage of this opportunity to clean up those officials who were incompatible with them.

If you don’t cooperate with us in smuggling, and if you don’t cooperate with us in collusion with pirates, then let the pirates attack your county.

Even if you successfully resist, you will find the mistakes and move your official position away, allowing you to become an official in other places.

And once the resistance fails, you can deal with you with justice.

Xiong Yan hated this routine. It was precisely because of this that he sacrificed the interests of the local aristocratic families without hesitation and directly attracted the army from the province.

It can be said that when the soldiers from the province were brought over, his relationship with these local aristocratic families became opposite.

However, Xiong Yan didn't care. He even began to think secretly about how to capture all the local local wealthy families in one go.

"Is this the tomb of the late county magistrate Mr. Huang?" Xiong Yan asked directly.

"That's right, it's just here, although it's relatively simple. However, it's because of the simplicity that it's not destroyed." Lihua said.

In Dachu, after a person dies, generally speaking, rich people will build a beautiful and better feng shui tomb. Those who have no money will of course make up for it.

However, as simple as before, they are usually the graves of poor people.

On the ground, there was a pile of yellow mud, not even bricks and stones. Above the yellow mud, there was a wooden sign with the tomb of someone on it.

"Mr. Huang, I have been fighting against pirates all my life. When I was a county magistrate, I fought against pirates, and eventually the defeated officer was gone."

"But even so, I still have no regrets. I have spent all my family's wealth and continued to fight against the pirates. Such a righteous act is indeed a hero."

"My Great Chu has always been fair and just, and he pays for all kindness and revenge. The court is no exception. Mr. Huang, who has fought against pirates throughout his life, deserves respect..."

After saying a long nonsense, Xiong Yan began to move his grave. He wanted to build a heroic temple in the Wujun County City, and specialize in the ancestral halls to worship such heroes who made contributions and even sacrificed to fight against the pirates.

Moreover, they have to give them a title on their official front. With this title, life in the underworld will be much better.

Soon, Xiong Yan's actions spread. Mr. Huang, who died in the fight against the pirates, paid tribute to many heroes who fought against the pirates, and even wrote a few poems and articles to commemorate them. He also established a heroic temple, which was obvious.

Looking at this information, many powerful families began to secretly connect.

In a certain house, it is extremely dark here, and every guy who comes in is wearing a mask and does not show his true face.

"This new adult is so cruel. In just a few days, all the underworld members of the six counties in Jiangdong were killed. Even if they escaped by chance, their courage was scared at this moment."

A guy wearing a wolf-faced mask said. His tone was plain and no one could tell how much his family had lost in this operation.

"Yes, the underworld is temporarily abolished. He even established his prestige with the help of this action. At least, the prestige has already risen for the people. It is not us, we can change it casually." The man with the monkey-faced mask said with some regret.

If the army is in charge, whoever dares to spread rumors is responsible! Once caught, the final result will be 80% of the house being searched.

In this case, which aristocratic family dares to stab? After all, what aristocratic family is good at is not straightforward.

"This person is innocent of being the prefect of Wujun, but he takes the initiative to introduce provincial troops to join the governor to seize our local interests. I want to impeach him."

"Hehe, what's the use of impeachment alone? The provincial liba cannot cooperate so much. Even before the province completely grasps the state, it is impossible for him to transfer it."

"Other state governors are trying every means to seize power from the province. He is better off, he doesn't want power directly. How can he do this?"

"Hey, this person is not wanting rights, he is just sacrificing the interests of us locals."

It hit the nail on the head of the six counties, but after all, it was airborne. I don’t know enough about the officials below.

In this case, there are very few rights that can be directly held in your hands.

The ultimate sacrifice of the power was not the powerful families who took the majority of the majority. This was a dispute over interests, otherwise the families would have shrunk long ago.

"Looking at this boy's resume, he can be said to be decisive in killing. We cannot sit still and wait for death. We must react." The dog-faced mask suddenly said.

"Yes, if this continues, the money will be gone. Without money, why can the family develop so quickly? I will never agree to this."

"Okay, then let's do it, it's still the same rule. Alas, after finally calming down for so long, is it still going to be bloody?"
