The situation was getting more and more chaotic. As the Zhennan Army soldiers rushed in, the villagers surrounding the Rong Estate were all dispersed. The entire Rong Estate was surrounded by the Zhennan Army, not even a drop of water could escape.
Inside the Rong Residence, under the general's orders, a group of strong soldiers immediately rushed forward to push aside the guards and servants, who were also dumbfounded, and seized the dumbfounded Rong Bing.
Rong Bing immediately realized that he had been caught.
"Who are you people?! How dare you break into my Rong Estate?! Someone come! Quick … save me! Quick, save me!! "
Rong Bing shouted, waking up the dumbfounded guards and his youngest son, Rong Zhichang.
The guards immediately surrounded them. Rong Zhichang grabbed a stick and tried to save them.
Deputy General Zhao waved his hand again.
"How dare they attack the soldiers! They're rebelling! They're rebelling! Guards! Kill these rebels for me! "
The gunners who were already prepared immediately raised their flintlocks, took aim, and fired decisively.
With a burst of gunfire, the guards were killed on the spot and fell to the ground. Rong Zhichang was shot in the chest and fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
Rong Bing's eyes widened.
"This family is a bunch of rebels! They're the accomplices of the traitor, Shen Yicheng! Take them all down! Kill anyone who resists! "
Under Deputy General Zhao's command, the murderous soldiers immediately rushed in. In just a moment, they had already defeated dozens of guards. Then, even more soldiers rushed into the Rong Estate, killing all the armed guards they saw. They rushed all the way into the Rong Estate. As the saying went, "Their operation is as ferocious as a tiger."
Deputy General Zhao didn't leave the main entrance. He only turned to look at the captured Rong Bing when he heard the gunshots coming from the backyard of the Rong Estate.
It was a strange feeling to have such a sudden operation go so smoothly.
The grievances he had felt for the past few days were swept away.
However, to Rong Bing, it was just the beginning.
He watched as his youngest son was shot to death, blood splattering all over the ground.
Kill …
Murder?
What's going on?
Why did he suddenly kill someone?
This … this wasn't a dream, right?
"Deputy General Zhao."
Xie He, who had arranged the defense outside, walked in with his men. Seeing the corpses and bloodstains on the ground, he frowned.
"Thank you, Sir."
Deputy General Zhao cupped his hands towards Xie He, then pointed at the dazed Rong Bing who had been captured.
"This is Rong Bing, the leader of the Rong Clan. He has been captured."
Xie He nodded, looked at the dumbstruck Rong Bing, and then looked at the hooligans standing at the side, unable to move. He especially focused on the leading hooligan, Zhang Sihou, whose face was bleeding from the beating.
"You've done well. I'll reward you handsomely. I'll give you an additional twenty taels of silver, for a total of fifty taels of silver!"
Zhang Sihou immediately showed a look of ecstasy.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! "
This voice stunned Rong Bing for a moment before he reacted.
"You … you are …"
Xie He turned around and looked at Rong Bing, whose face was flushed red.
"Master Rong, this is the first time we've met and I haven't introduced myself. I am Xie He, courtesy name Qing Quan."
"You … it's you …"
Rong Bing's lips were trembling, his face was flushed, and his breathing was very heavy. "You ordered my son to be killed?"
"Yes, it was me. Master Rong, I'm not only here to kill your son, but also to kill your entire family and take over your family business."
Rong Bing's eyes widened.
At this moment, another wave of concentrated gunshots came from the backyard of the Rong Clan. Along with the gunshots, one could faintly hear the sound of crying.
Rong Bing's body trembled, and his expression became anxious. He immediately shouted, "Who are you people? Why do you want to harm me? Why do you want to harm my Rong Clan?! "
"Don't be nervous, Master Rong. This is just the beginning."
Xie He took a deep breath and revealed a slight smile. "I'm very sorry, Master Rong. I'm very sorry for making your Rong clan the first to be buried with us. However, you can't blame me for this. Who asked you to resist the imperial army the most fiercely?"
"The imperial army?"
Rong Bing was instantly furious. "Xiao Ni wants to harm me? Xiao Ni wants to harm me?! How dare you all! How dare you all! Do you know who I am? Do you know who in my family is in the imperial court? How dare you kill a member of my Rong Clan? I'll exterminate your entire clan! Exterminate your entire clan!! "
Rong Bing struggled violently, but how could he break free from the control of two elites from the Zhennan Army?
"It's not about courage. It's just a plan. Master Rong, do you really think I don't know what you've been doing? You've been colluding with the local tyrants to take advantage of the autumn harvest. Master Rong, do you think that the imperial army is blind and deaf? Even if General Xiao didn't send me to do this, you'll still die. "
Xie He's cold smile shocked Rong Bing.
"Do you know what you're doing? Do you know what the consequences of your actions will be?!! "
Rong Bing roared loudly.
"We're eliminating traitors for the country, eliminating the accomplices of the traitor Shen Yicheng. As for the consequences, the consequences are that your Rong Clan will be annihilated and cease to exist. Hmm, not only you, but the other major clans as well. None of them will be able to escape. All of them will die."
Rong Bing's eyes widened.
"You … What did you say? My Rong Clan is not only related to the Shen Clan by marriage, but also to countless other clans in Ningbo Prefecture! How dare you harm my clan! You're cutting yourself off from the rest of the world! Cutting yourself off from the rest of the world! The rest of the world will condemn you, and your name will go down in history as a stink! Xiao Ni is courting death! He's courting death!! "
Xie He's expression did not change, and he continued to smile coldly.
"The rest of the world? Killing you means cutting yourself off from the rest of the world? Don't you think your clan has too many in-laws? Does the world belong to you High Scholars and High Scholars? Other than you High Scholars and High Scholars, is there no one else? Daming, there are only a few tens of thousands of High Scholars and High Scholars in the entire country, right? "
Rong Bing opened his mouth, but no words came out.
"The world doesn't belong to you. The world belongs to the people of the world. With just a few tens of thousands of people, you dare to call yourself the world? Aren't you a little too arrogant? But that's right, your tens of thousands of people have taken up too much, so much that I almost starved to death. Do you know that? "
Xie He's face was filled with viciousness: "Master Rong, I'm also a scholar. It's just that I'm an Elementary Scholar, and did not pass the High Scholar exams. Just like that, because I did not pass the High Scholar exams, I almost starved to death!"
Rong Bing's eyes widened.
"In the past, no one dared to do this, and no one thought that they would do it. But this time, it's different. Rong Bing, General Xiao will sweep all of you clean, and make all of you disappear. You can bring your people and plead for mercy to King Yanluo!"
Xie He waved his hands, and two soldiers immediately escorted Rong Bing out.
At the same time, a group of crying people were escorted over by the Zhennan Army soldiers, along with many corpses.
"Who are you people?! Let go of me! Let go of me!! "
"Murder! Murder! "
"Someone come and save me! Save me!! "
Among the group of men and women who were still alive, some were crying, some were howling, and some were dumbstruck. It was obvious that they were unprepared for this unexpected disaster. They were caught unprepared by the sudden attack and didn't even have the time to resist. Just like that.
"The intelligence was right, they really did gather at the Rong Corporation to discuss how to divide the spoils! You people from Black Water are really capable! "
Xie He smiled at a young man beside him.
"We're all working for the General, Mister Xie is too kind."
"This is not an exaggeration."
Xie He shook his head: "With your help, this can be considered as half the work, twice the result. This feeling of catching all of them in one fell swoop is better than anything else, it's so smooth that I can't believe it."
Xie He took a deep breath, and then looked around the mansion.
"No, although it's big, it's dirty, don't."
Xie He muttered to himself, and said to Deputy General Zhao: "Deputy General Zhao, let's go parade the streets!"
"Yes!"
Deputy General Zhao nodded.
"Also, when you go to raid other people's houses, don't kill people in the house. Take them out and kill them outside. Don't let this house see blood, and try not to make a scene. A house with blood is inauspicious, and it'll take a lot of effort to get people to exorcise evil spirits. I don't want it."
Deputy General Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and nodded.
