In fact, there is no need for Lin Jiuxi to publicize this. The people were persecuted by the Lin family army and dared not speak out, which led to a lot of accumulated resentment.
Lin Jiuxi was more targeting General Lin himself, believing that it was because of his failure to exercise proper discipline that the soldiers were allowed to harm the people.
The people of Jizhou City thought she was right.
General Lin won the battle, even though he used some despicable means, but in war, the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits. General Lin did not care, he just felt very proud.
Although this victory has been discounted now, Lin Jiuxi actually ran away right under his nose.
However, that fire also caused some of the Taoyuan Gang members to die or flee, and they were unable to achieve anything significant.
He only needs to wait until Lin Jiuxi is captured, and then he can return to Beijing to report, get promoted, make money, and support his son.
General Lin looked coldly at the officials behind him and said rudely, "City Lord Mo is drunk, why don't you take him back? There are swords everywhere in my barracks. If someone accidentally hurts City Lord Mo, what will be your punishment?"

But the people of Jizhou City were ungrateful. He had solved a problem for them, so wasn't it only right that they give up a few women and some money?
Lin Jiuxi laughed: "How can this be called instigation? This is just to make him recognize the facts. Lin Weiyuan is a villain. To plot against him is just to plot against a tiger. It is better for him to join me in protecting Jizhou City."
"Lord Mo, you are too excited. They are just a few ordinary people. What power can they have? They will definitely not hinder your future. Don't take it so seriously." General Lin drank his wine and didn't care about it. He thought the people he sent did a good job.
"Am I too excited or are you being too presumptuous, General Lin?" City Lord Mo is nearly sixty years old. He was so angry at General Lin's behavior that he was almost out of breath.
This is called killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and it is to warn others not to act rashly.
Lin Jiuxi doesn't care much about these comments. All she wants is for the country to be peaceful and the people to live well.
"What do you mean it's his territory? The whole world belongs to the king! This is Jizhou City, not Lin Weiyuan's world."
"Mo Yunkai, you better open your dog eyes and figure out who has the say here now."
"You! Lin Weiyuan, are you threatening me?" City Lord Mo said angrily.
Reputation and the like are all false.
"City Lord, this is his territory after all. We...we should go back and discuss it carefully. It would be better."
Even if the court stipulated that large numbers of people and horses must be reported when they gathered, they had not disturbed Jizhou City, nor had they robbed anyone. Whose business had they disturbed? He should not have let the wolf in and brought in such a scourge as General Lin.
The person he sent to supervise was one of his confidants and also his nephew, named Lin Qingshan.
You know, in order to be able to go to war, he also sold two shops to raise military pay! They were not grateful at all and still cared about a few taels of silver.
"Report to the police?" The widow of her deceased husband, holding her two children, trembled and refused repeatedly: "I dare not, I dare not. It was my old Li who talked too much and angered the military commander. How dare I report to the police? Miss, please be kind and let my family go. I just want to bring these two children up, I dare not think of anything else..."
So General Lin got angry and ordered his men to arrest several people who had said bad things about him on the street and beat them to death in the street.
Lin Jiuxi has found out a lot of things in the north and south of the city these days, such as the victims harmed by General Lin's subordinates.
However, how could the voices of the refugees be silenced? The Qin Emperor and Han Emperor, no matter how great their achievements were, were still widely praised. How much more so could he.
"Do you want to incite him to rebel?" Cai Cai asked.
City Lord Mo slapped the official who said this on the head.
"I think you are trying to take over my position." Cai Cai commented with a roll of her eyes.
He thought that even if he did not love his people like his own children, he still fulfilled his duties as a city lord with trepidation.
Cai Cai told Lin Jiuxi what happened here.
"How dare you?" General Lin's face changed. He didn't care that City Lord Mo was almost at the same level as him, and threatened directly: "Mo Yunkai, don't take yourself for granted. Are you trying to issue orders to me with a chicken feather? If it weren't for the order of His Majesty, do you think I would be willing to come to your godforsaken place? I'm here to suppress bandits for you and do things for you!"
He really regretted it.
She found that Lin Qingshan had ordered the killing of civilians, and their bodies were hung high on flagpoles, and their families were not allowed to collect the bodies as a warning.
When City Lord Mo rushed over after hearing about this, he was so angry at General Lin's actions that he almost choked.
The officials did not dare to offend either side, so they had to persuade City Lord Mo, who was more easy to talk to.
Pointing at General Lin's nose, he said, "You, you, you are such a fool! How could such a fool do such a thing that harms the people?"
Several civilians cried bitterly, but no matter how much they apologized and begged for mercy, the military clubs still came down, blood flowed halfway down the street, and in front of a crowd of onlookers, the person who gave the order was smug.
Even so, it was a fact that General Lin had more troops than them and they were no match for him. City Lord Mo had no choice but to be dragged back to the City Lord's Mansion by a group of officials.
"It seems that City Lord Mo is better than I thought. Since he is determined to waver, this is our chance." Lin Jiuxi's eyes turned.
"Brother Li just said a few words on the street. How can that be considered a mistake? It is unreasonable for them to kill people. Just go and report to the police. I believe City Lord Mo is a good man and he will take care of it for you." Lin Jiuxi said encouragingly.
The widow still shook her head: "City Lord Mo is a good man, but how can he do this? How can he not know about this? The body of our old man Li is still hanging there! If he can do this, why doesn't he do it?"
"Sister Li, you can't just pin all your hopes on others and do nothing yourself. How can City Lord Mo manage it if you don't even dare to try?" Lin Jiuxi looked at her firmly and encouraged her secretly.
The widow smiled bitterly with a pale face: "Aren't the people who beat our old man Li to death also officials? Aren't they supposed to be the ones protecting us? Why…"
Lin Jiuxi held the widow's hand and said, "Let's go to the city lord together and ask him to seek justice for everyone. I will accompany you. What if it works? Then the spirit of Brother Li in heaven will be relieved..."
