Chapter 2869

Seeing that the fighting in the town had gradually subsided, Suksaha rode slowly into the town under the guard of his own soldiers.

When they got closer, everyone could see clearly that this so-called small town was actually composed of many tents and huts, and the courtyards were only surrounded by fences as tall as one person.There seem to be few houses that are actually built of bricks and stones in the whole town, and judging from the appearance of the houses, it is obvious that they are not newly built recently, and most of them are properties left by the Han people who lived here before.

The officer who commanded the operation brought Sukesaha and his party to one of the houses. They could live in this kind of brick and tile house, which is rare in the local area. Without asking, the head of the house must be a well-known figure in Niu Lu.

Among the people kneeling on the ground in the yard, apart from a few crying women and children, the most eye-catching one was a man with his hands tied behind his back.This man was bare-chested, with a black-feathered arrow sticking out of his shoulder, blood was still flowing down the shaft of the arrow, it looked like he was injured in the previous fight.The man watched Suksaha walk in, trembling uncontrollably, apparently very frightened.

The officer whispered a few words beside Sukesaha, Sukesaha nodded, and introduced the situation to Zhu Ziwu and others in unproficient Chinese.

The man Zhongjian is said to be the leader here, named A Lin, and his official official position is "Niuluzhangjing". Litigation, etc.

Although Alin argued that his resistance was just a mistaken belief that an enemy was coming, the stolen goods that the Qing army seized from his home later proved that this person's statement was not credible.

The soldiers of the Qing army presented the two boxes of wine found under his bed to Sukesaha and the others. After seeing it, several Haihan officers nodded repeatedly, thinking that this time they must be the master.

This kind of "Sanya Special Wine" filled in glass bottles is originally produced in Hainan Island. Because of the inconvenience of long-distance transportation and high freight costs, only four or five batches of goods are shipped to Liaodong every year, adding up to only three to four thousand bottles. Most are digested internally.The quantity resold to Manqing is about a thousand bottles a year, and the price in the Manchu market is more than ten times higher than the original place. It can be said that it is a real luxury.

The so-called rarity is the most precious, and it is naturally difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to come into contact with this stuff. Those who can buy this kind of wine with the strength and channels are mostly the powerful class of the Qing Dynasty.And A Lin is just a small Niu Luzhang Jing, and the price of these two cases of wine is more than his normal annual salary, so it is obviously unreasonable to appear at his house.

Of course, the most conclusive evidence is the conspicuous "Xianghongji" seal on the box.After the guy snatched the item back, he didn't even think about removing the mark on it, and just put it at home as it was, which just provided irrefutable evidence for the investigators.

Then other stolen goods were found from A Lin's house, salt, tea, cigarettes, sugar...almost everything, apparently he planned to keep some of them for his own use.

At this point in the investigation, Suksaha didn't talk nonsense, and immediately asked Alin where the other goods were hidden, as well as the people involved in the robbery.

Seeing that the matter was brought to light, Alin wanted to bargain with Suksaha to seek life.However, Sukesaha showed no mercy, and immediately ordered to drag one person out of his family, and without explanation, executed him in the yard and beheaded him.

The process was so fast that the few Haihan officers who were watching were defenseless, and Zhu Ziwu was even more taken aback.It's not that he hasn't seen a dead person before, but it's the first time he saw a beheaded execution at such a close distance. The visual impact and the bloody smell made him want to vomit, and he finally endured it.

However, Suksaha, who witnessed the whole process, was still expressionless. It can be seen that he has long been used to such scenes and has a cold heart that is difficult for ordinary people. It is no wonder that Shunzhi sent him to handle the case.

Suksaha just told Alin coldly that if he did not confess truthfully, his family members would be killed face to face one by one.

Seeing that Alin was still hesitating, Sukesaha waved his hand, and his soldiers immediately dragged out another child from Alin's family.This time, Ah Lin didn't dare to wait and see, and immediately shouted to express his willingness to cooperate.

Even if Suk Sahadang asked Alin to confess the participants one by one first, if he missed one person, he would kill one of his family members.At this time, Alin had collapsed and did not dare to resist at all. Every time he said a name, someone was ordered to go and capture him from other places in the town.

The town has been surrounded by Sukesaha's people into an iron barrel, even a bird can't fly out. As long as the people A Lin confessed to are still in the town, they will definitely not be able to escape.However, it was quite time-consuming to catch all these people one by one. It was not until noon that all the people who A Lin confessed were caught.

More than 200 people directly involved in the robbery had their hands tied behind their backs and knelt together on the side of the road outside the town.These people accounted for more than half of the local men, ranging from gray-bearded old men to teenagers of fifteen or sixteen years old. It seemed that they really came out at that time and used all the combat power of this cow record.

At that time, during the battle with the caravan guards, more than 20 of these people led by Alin were killed.Suksaha didn't even spare these dead people, ordered their families to lead the way, dug up all the bones of these people, and verified the injuries on their bodies to ensure that no one escaped by feigning death.

At the same time, the search of the entire town by the Qing army finally came to an end.According to the confessions of these arrested persons, the Qing army found most of the looted goods that had not been processed in time.Except for a few who were kept by A Lin and other key personnel for their own use, most of the goods were hidden in an abandoned brick kiln outside the town.According to the final statistics, almost [-]% of the stolen goods were recovered.

Haihan originally thought that the robbers would sell the goods in the underground black market for cash, and wanted to find clues in this regard.Alin confessed that he actually had the same idea, but the limelight was too intense after the incident. He also knew that the officials of the two countries would definitely investigate the case, so he hid the goods first, and planned to find a way to sell the goods after the limelight passed.

At this point in the investigation, the only remaining questions are why A-Lin organized this operation, where did he get the news, and whether there is someone behind it.Especially the last point is the most concerned issue of the investigators of the two countries.

Suksaha camped in the town that day, conducted overnight surprise interrogations on all these suspects, cross-verified their statements, and allowed Haihan officers to observe the interrogation process.

The night of interrogation was not a joke. A dozen or so key members headed by A Lin were tortured for a whole night, and two of them were killed on the spot.If it weren't for Suksahat's instructions, Alin probably wouldn't have survived the night.
