On the fifth day after Shen Hao arrived at Beach Stone, the first case occurred: a Military Supervisor refused to implement the new requirements from the Inspector, would not accept the Inspector's revisions or suggestions, and insisted on making "amendments" to a military document for which there was clearly no need. Consequently, the Inspector ordered his arrest on charges of "disrupting discipline." The deputy Thousand Households Officer, Zhang Ye, carried out the arrest on behalf of the Inspector.
With the first case as a precedent, a second quickly followed. In just half a day, a report came from Li Jiang as well: a Military Supervisor who refused to cooperate with the Inspector's new duties was killed. The reason: when the Inspector tried to arrest him, the man reacted too violently, and his conduct was deemed a threat, so the Inspector and his men surrounded him and killed him.
