Chapter 90 City Defense Army

Wuyang Yizhongwai, Caramel Cafe, in a box on the second floor.

Chu Tianming and Chen Shaojie sat opposite each other.

Rarely, Chen Shaojie's face was not as carefree as usual, quiet and deep.

"About Team Leader Miao...do you know what's going on?" Chu Tianming asked.

"Yesterday at three o'clock in the morning, the guards discovered that the chief's house had been attacked. When we arrived, the chief and her husband were lying in a pool of blood," Chen Shaojie said, his voice a little hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot. "A deputy team leader personally led the investigation, and the verdict given was that some of the criminal organizations that she destroyed before had slipped through the net to retaliate."

The highest officer of the garrison is the "team leader". Under the team leader, there are three deputy captains. One general team leader was attacked and killed. It is not unusual for a person at the level of the deputy team leader to personally investigate.

But the findings of this survey...

Chu Tianming was silent for a moment, then twitched the corners of his mouth: "Isn't it too arrogant? Don't you even plan to act?"

"Acting? What's there to act?" Chen Shaojie smiled wryly, "In the eyes of the Fang family, the guards are nothing more than a group of dogs they raised. Perhaps for them, giving the chief team leader the reputation of "died in the line of duty" is just This is already a kindness, although it is more likely that they are too lazy to spend more energy to tarnish the reputation of the chief group leader."

Chu Tianming was silent.

Miao Fang's matter, I think it's not a coincidence, the murderer didn't even have much intention to conceal his identity, otherwise he would have to wait at least a few months before doing anything.

The patriarch was just sued, and the person who sued the patriarch was attacked and killed within two days. It can only be said that the Fang family is completely unscrupulous.

"If they do this, they won't be afraid of dissatisfaction from the rest of the guard? The news can't be suppressed, right?" Chu Tianming frowned.

"Do you know what level the position and importance of Chief Miao in the garrison should be?" Chen Shaojie asked suddenly.

"Well... I remember you told me about the composition of the garrison team. She is the chief leader of the action team. Above her is Yaya, the captain of the executive team, and several of her vice-captains. Above her are the vice-captains and Team leader, if the principal and deputy are in the same rank, she will be counted as the third rank?" Chu Tianming said.

"And she is already the highest position that a commoner can hold in the garrison," Chen Shaojie said. "Positions higher than the general team leader can only be held by members of various nobles."

"Yaya is also a nobleman?" Chu Tianming asked.

"She is considered a special case. She seems to be born as a commoner, but she has a close relationship with the Luo family, one of the three major families. There are even gossip that she is the illegitimate son of the current patriarch of the Luo family." Chen Shaojie said, "This kind of gossip It is not credible. But what is certain is that since the establishment of the garrison, except for Yaya, no one of civilian origin has been able to obtain a position above the general team leader."

"The team leader, the deputy team leader, the other captains and the vice-captains are all members of the family, and further down, the ordinary members of the garrison are all recruited from civilians, including me, but at the same time there are A large number of family members joined, they will not be ordinary team members, at least they are also the team leader of a team.”

"That is to say, although the main composition of the garrison is civilians, the important positions, as well as the position of the team leader at the grassroots level, are all under the control of the nobles, right?" Chu Tianming concluded.

"Almost, so it is impossible for the garrison to resist the city hall, and it is impossible to resist the nobles." Chen Shaojie clenched his fists, "The garrison is just a tool recruited by the city hall from civilians to maintain superficial law and order. It’s just used by nobles to manage ordinary people.”

"The nobles all have their own private soldiers and family law. The private soldiers are above the garrison, and the family law is above the law. In the face of the power of the nobles, the garrison itself, and even what the garrison maintains and enforces. The laws of Wuyang City are nothing but a joke!"

"By the way, I have never understood why the security of the whole city is handed over to the guards controlled by the City Hall," Chu Tianming asked curiously, "What about the City Lord's Mansion? The urban district and Chengdong district, the two richest districts in Wuyang City, should be stronger than the city hall, why didn't they form their own 'garrison' and hand over the power to the city hall?"

"In my capacity, I shouldn't know about this, but out of curiosity, I asked Team Leader Miao," Chen Shaojie said, "She said that this is an exchange between the City Lord's Mansion and the City Hall. At the beginning of the establishment of the City Lord's Mansion, there was an attempt Establishing a city defense army and recruiting troops from all over the city met with fierce opposition from the city hall, and after several rounds of negotiations, the City Lord's Mansion finally established a city defense army."

"In exchange, the city lord's mansion promised the city hall to 'never interfere with the security of the city'. The city hall will establish the garrison completely independently. In addition, the city defense army cannot easily enter the city and can only be stationed at the city border. If you want to enter the city on a large scale, you must Comply with some special regulations that have been stipulated, or be agreed by both the City Lord's Mansion and the City Hall."

After a pause, Chen Shaojie continued: "Team Leader Miao also revealed to me that the nobles had been investing in the city defense army at the beginning of its formation, so the relationship was very close. It wasn't until the City Lord's Mansion introduced high-tech enterprises later and the funds were sufficient , the nobles were strictly prohibited from investing in the city defense army, and the nobles were very dissatisfied with this, but the attitude of the city lord was extremely tough, and in the end it continued like this, and the source of funds for the city defense army is now only the city lord's mansion."

No wonder...

When Chen Shaojie said this, Chu Tianming understood.

From the first time he saw Feng Xueji, he felt that this person was definitely not a good person, and he couldn't understand why he would give up the whole city's law and order. Now it seems that he most likely wants to play big.

Although the aristocrats have profound background and abundant resources, their number is flawed. They rely on blood as a bond, and their advantage lies in unity. In any case, the number cannot be compared with the common people in the whole city. Ordinary talents are the foundation of society.

Although the private soldiers of the nobles must be of high quality and well-equipped, as long as the city defense army recruits and trains soldiers for the civilians in the city, the number will definitely exceed the private soldiers of the nobles by a large margin. Elite soldiers of the nobles.

What's more, with the style of the nobles, if the public security of the city is entrusted to them, ordinary citizens will definitely accumulate resentment because of the oppression of the noble privileges. When the resentment accumulates to a certain extent, it will become resistance to the city hall or even Resentment, when the time comes, the city defense army that has grown up will turn around and enter the city to "put things right"...

If it goes well, I'm afraid there will be no city hall in the city, only the city lord's mansion.

As for the agreement between the City Lord's Mansion and the city hall that "the city defense forces are not allowed to enter the city at will"...

It can only be said that agreements are sometimes used to tear up.

Judging from the recent details, the friction between the city hall and the city lord's mansion has become more and more serious. If his guess above is correct, then the day when the city defense army enters the city may not be far away——

Thinking in his shoes, if he was Feng Xueji, he would definitely not start when the smell of gunpowder was pervasive and both sides were already at war. He would definitely pick a time when the face was not completely torn apart, release the signal that he wanted "peace talks", and then choose On a sunny day, set up an ambush, entertain the heads of various families, and then kill them all.

At the same time, the city defense army immediately marched towards the city, taking advantage of the brief confusion when the nobles lost their heads, and wiped them out with a thunderous force, without giving them any chance to react.

Chu Tianming sighed inwardly.

I hope this day, if it is going to happen, comes as late as possible.

For one thing, he still needs time to develop and become stronger.

Secondly, when his strength allows, he actually wants to send the Fang family away with his own hands.

And with his growth rate, that day shouldn't be too far away.
