The officer thumped in the water and shouted furiously: "Take them down!"

The soldiers following behind the officer all changed face.This group of people are all experts who have waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so they inevitably have arrogance; moreover, they were newly transferred to Zhigu Village recently, so they have a strong sense of vigilance.

Although Guo Ning did not publicize the rebellion of the leaders at sea, rumors had already spread.Hundreds of leaders and ministers were ordered to go to Zhongdu to receive rewards. As a result, a rebellion broke out in the middle of the night, seriously injuring the Ding navy general, and almost alarming Marshal Guo's family.As a result, Marshal Guo was forced to hold Tie Guduo in person, guarding the gate of the inner courtyard to fight with him.This is no ordinary matter!
Since then, although the city of Zhongdu was turned upside down by this, some elite officers and men of the Ding Navy were urgently transferred to Zhigu Village, firstly to calm the situation, and secondly, to arrest and control the followers of the rebel leader.Even in various ports in Shandong and farms that have been assigned to sailors, officials from the Dinghai Infantry, Inspection Department, and Recording Department repeatedly checked.

During the past two days, Marshal Guo took his wife and children to stay in Wuqing, north of Zhigu Village.It is said that because of the death of Emperor Daxing, the marshal was depressed, so he brought his family here to relax, but who knows, whether the marshal came here to personally watch the movement of Zhigu Village?

With this thought in mind, most of the soldiers stationed in Zhigu Village at this time were eager to try and show off in front of the marshal.There were also people who were worried that if there was another disturbance at sea, the marshal would be furious, and there would be nothing good for everyone.

Since the officer gave the order, dozens of soldiers drew their swords and drew their swords, and moved forward together.

Zhou Keshan fell to the ground with his back to the sky, shouting repeatedly: "It's a misunderstanding! Don't resist!"

Before he finished speaking, he was already being pinned down, and a rope was involuntarily put around his neck, and then he went around his back and tied it up in a big way.Even so, he was still yelling, "Don't do anything! Wang Erbai! It's you! Kneel down!"

Wang Erbai's temperament is a bit naive, but he is not stupid. How can he really fight against dozens of sword-wielding warriors?What's more, he has been on the sea for a long time, and he understands that the rules of the sea are the most important, and that an order cannot be disobeyed.

At that moment, he was stunned and knelt down on the ground.Immediately, more than ten soldiers came out with swords and swords, and they lined up densely around his neck, just like an iron ring with sharp edges.The soldiers turned their heads to look at the officer, and waited for the officer to give an order to kill 200 kings.

Fortunately, the officials in charge of the wharf at this place were still friendly, and hurriedly came up to persuade him: "You can't kill him! The boss of this guy is named Zhao Bin, and he is an old senior in our Ding Navy. He has friendship with Marshal Guo!"

Another small official was busy throwing the cable, let the officer pull it, and used his strength to land.While pulling the cable, they also explained: "This Zhou Gangshou is an acquaintance of our Dinghai Navy. He has met Marshal Guo many times! They are all from our own! Selling those iron wares is authorized by the superior... Li Yun and Li Langzhong also knew!"

The officer stood back on the trestle bridge with splashing water dripping from his body.

The officials continuously reported the background of Zhou Keshan and his party, which is supposed to be enough in exchange for forgiveness, but the officer only sneered:
"Our own people? After what happened in Central Capital, who can guarantee that these people at sea are all our own people?"

As soon as this remark came out, the officials were all silent, allowing the soldiers to tie up Zhou Keshan and Wang Erbai, kick and beat them away.After walking a few steps, the officer turned around and said, "These two ships are also under surveillance! The people on board are all detained in the camp. If there are fewer ships or fewer people, you are the only one to ask!"

Zhou Keshan stumbled and walked beside the officer, turned his head and asked: "This general, what happened in Zhongdu? My two ships were still buying goods in Chuzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty half a month ago, and I just returned today. Zhigu Village, I really don't know..."

"Chuzhou!" The officer suddenly raised his voice.

An hour later.

The prison camp of Zhigu Village.

Zhigu Village is a place full of dragons and snakes, relying on the daily presence of strong soldiers, there is no possibility of ordinary petty thieves or local ruffians making trouble.However, most of the sailors at sea were brutal and rough. After going ashore, they gambled and gambled with their money, and it was common for them to compete with each other and fight each other.

Most of these people carry weapons with them, and they often splatter blood five steps and even injure innocent people.So when Li Yun was stationed in Zhigu Village that day, he set up a special inspection department here in the name of Qun Mu Jian, and whenever he found reckless behavior, he should be arrested and killed, and he would never indulge him. People fled to sea.

This prison camp is an agency under the Inspection Department.Since it was a prison camp, the living conditions were naturally simple and rough. Rough logs were driven into the ground in rows, and a depression that was slightly sheltered from the wind was dug down, and then a grass roof was built.Because the surrounding terrain is low-lying and salty, there are too many people in the prison, and the ground in the depression is trampled into a muddy pond.With fewer people, the rotten mud pond dries up slowly, leaving circles of brine and alkali close to the ground.

When Zhou Keshan was kicked into the prison camp, there were a lot of people, and most of the ground was slippery and muddy, with water on the soil and sand.He stepped on the mud, his hands and shoulders were bound numb again, he couldn't keep his balance, so he fell to the ground and rolled, his body was immediately covered with black, yellow, white, fishy and rotten. The smell is strong.

When he was about to get up, Wang Erbai was also kicked in behind him.The guy was careless and didn't pay attention to avoiding it, and directly bumped into Zhou Keshan who was halfway up.The two fell to the ground and rolled over, becoming more and more embarrassed, and it took a long time to move to a slightly dry place and stand still.

Wang Erbai looked behind and saw rows of wooden fences, so he rattled and kicked the wooden walls of the prison camp, yelling loudly.

And Zhou Keshan stood still slowly, his eyes swept around.

He saw dozens of familiar ship owners and leaders.Those acquaintances also saw him, and suddenly they were raging: "Old Zhou! Why are you here?"

Zhou Keshan asked blankly, "Huh?"

Another person asked: "You are familiar with Lin Zhen, but do you know who is behind him?"

Zhou Keshan was still at a loss: "Ah? What happened to Lin Zhen?"

The crowd asked questions again and again, and it took a while to realize that Zhou Keshan had come here due to an unreasonable disaster, he had only been off the boat for less than two quarters, and he didn't know anything about Zhongdu at all.

Immediately, everyone hurriedly explained to him, and described in detail the situation of the rebellion of gang leaders and watermen in Zhongdu City. It turned out that Lin Zhen was the leader of the group of traitors.Marshal Guo didn't know about it when they were fighting, so he killed him. After asking others, he found out that it was Lin Zhen's instigation.

So here comes the question: Does Lin Zhen have a colleague?Who did he order?How many people like him are in the fleet of the Ding Navy?Can Marshal Guo still trust the people in the fleet?

No one can explain it clearly, and no one can guarantee it.

If people on the sea really have any ulterior motives, not only will they do great harm, but it will be easy to escape.As long as the boat enters thousands of miles of wind and waves, where can't it stay?Therefore, Ding Haijun simply waited on the sidelines, assigned personnel in several ports, and directly arrested all the people who had close contact with Lin Zhen on a daily basis. Ordinary sailors make them temporarily stay in the barracks.

Life in the prison camp was of course not easy.Many people are also worried that being involved in such a thing may affect the possibility of getting a military position in the Ding Navy and getting a field allocation in the future, and even the prospects of serving the Ding Navy will be dimmed.

At the end, everyone said with a sad face: "That guy Lin Zhen is naturally a heinous crime, but he usually has prestige and means, knows the secret of attracting stars, and has a lot of friends. If the superiors ask, who has been in contact with him, We all agree, but we never talked to him about the rebellion!"
