The people in the village were frightened all day long. First, the cannons were fired in an earth-shattering way, and then they were shouted to kill. [No pop-up novel website] Because the village was destroyed so quickly, the villagers realized that a large group of people had entered the village without getting any news. The men were busy looking for guys to resist, while the women were hurriedly smearing pot ashes on their faces. Fortunately, the team that entered the village didn't do anything to intrude on people's houses. They went to attack the owner's house, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief. For most people, the owner of the village is an extremely hateful person, and it would be best if all of his family must die. But I am afraid that I will suffer a disaster. So every household is worried. Hearing that every household was being called to a meeting, they knew they couldn't shirk it, so they had no choice but to walk towards the crossroads. For a time, there were crowds of people at the door of the Gou family's house.
The travelers piled rubble and bricks in front of the steps, and put the blown door panels on top to make a conference platform. A gas lamp was hung on a pole. Although it has not yet set, the gas lamps everywhere have been lit up, making the whole street bright and dazzling early in the morning. The people who were called looked at these lights with fear and surprise, which were brighter than a hundred lanterns.
The villagers saw that the sturdy and towering gate had been blown beyond recognition, and the stone lion that always showed its teeth and claws was blown to the ground. Several young men winked at each other, feeling a little happy. There were just groups of short-haired men wearing iron hats and green clothes holding shotguns, standing on all sides. The three-edged daggers on the shotguns flashed in the sun, and some even had blood stains on them, making them look very scary. A few sharp-eyed people spotted Zhang Xingjiao, the village's "waste" and "Sour Ding", dressed in short-haired clothes, and he was also there - this man had come back a few days ago, bringing some rice and salted fish, which he distributed to some people. He said that he was working for Shorthair after he was caught. Everyone thought how could he, a scholar, be willing to betray the "famous religion" he preached all day long and succumb to being a thief? Maybe he was caught and couldn't help himself. At this moment, it seemed that he had completely surrendered to these pirates. I don't care whether I despise or not. Those who had been kind to him in the past rushed to say hello and get close to him. Those who had offended him in the past hurriedly hid in the crowd, fearing that he would see him and do evil things. He would force himself to have some relationship with the Gou family and kill someone with a borrowed knife.
The conference began, and Wu De first took the stage to speak. He first said that he was of Chinese descent from overseas and had the same roots as everyone else. Then he reiterated his slogan of "eradicating the strong and evil, protecting the environment and the people" - this slogan has now been recognized by the Executive Committee and serves as the main propaganda slogan at this stage. Focused on their victory in the Bairentan battle. The local tyrants and evil gentry who have a long history of bad deeds like the Gou family and cause harm to one area will be beaten one by one until they can no longer cause harm to the common people. He called on the masses to boldly expose these people, including their lackeys. After he said these words, there was a big commotion below. The people were not really interested in the slogans, but it was really satisfying to get rid of the owner of the village and liquidate the scoundrels who were usually domineering. things. There are also some people who usually rely on relatives or friends with the losers in Zhuangzi, but they became uneasy after hearing this.
"Bring those bastards of the Gou family up!" With an order, the teachers, village bosses, accountants, housekeepers, housekeepers, attendants, and even the fat men in the kitchen who were caught in the battle were all seen. The head cook and several other members of the Gou family, wearing colorful paper hats, were led off the stage, and all of them bowed their backs to plead guilty. These domineering and domineering figures who usually dominated the village and even the county were now disgraced and looked embarrassed with their buttocks stuck out. Laughter came from the crowd, first a few people laughed, and then the laughter slowly infected everyone, and the whole place burst into laughter. Xi Yazhou and the others looked very excited. The trick of vilifying the opponent is indeed useful.
Next, there is Tan Chengqingyan from Yanchang Village. He has studied in Du Wen's farmer training center for more than ten days. He is already good at mass speech and speaks in an orderly manner. He explains what Gou Xunyi did in Yanchang Village. He made a fuss about it, and then expressed that the people of Yanchang Village and Damei Village were good citizens of the Ming Dynasty, and they would never tolerate the perverse behavior of local tyrants like the Gou family. He also quoted from classics that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding father of this dynasty, had originally attacked the tyrants. There are many examples - this is to eliminate the common people's worries that this move will be suspected of "rebellion". Of course Tan Chengqing didn't know these things. They were all materials obtained for him by Zhang Xingjiao, an intellectual.
Then Zhang Xingjiao came on stage to give his own account. Everyone in the village knew what happened to him, but hearing his emotional accusations in person still made many people feel sad. Wu De saw Zhang Xingjiao talking, taking out something like a thigh bone, crying while talking, and then hugging him on the table and crying loudly, which made the people below also booed and shed tears, and they couldn't help but become confused. Ask Xiong Buyou next to you:
"What is Lao Zhang talking about?"
"It is said that his family's ancestral grave was dug up by the Gou family, and this is the only remaining skeleton of several generations of ancestors."
"Didn't he say in the past that even if the bones were dug out of the ancestral graves, no bones could be found?"
"He's just making a fool of himself," Xiong Buyou said. "He just found these bones in some wild grave."
"Lao Zhang is really a creative talent. He can really make things up."
"It's not considered a fabrication. It's a fact that the ancestral grave was dug up by the Gou family. As for the bones, it's just a propaganda prop. It's no big deal to make some false propaganda."
Zhang Xingjiao became more and more excited as he spoke on the stage, and finally demanded that all these people be brought to the stage and handed over to the common people for struggle and criticism. The village soldiers from the salt farm, who had been gearing up for a long time, immediately pulled these people to the stage. Zhang Xingjiao grabbed the Feng Shui Master Qingke by the collar, scolded him, and sometimes punched him. The old man Qingke had already received a lot of sticks from Zhang Xingjiao just now. After receiving this punch and kick again, it hurt and scared him. Still able to stand up, he collapsed on the ground and excreted and peed. The more the people watched, the more excited they became, and they kept pushing forward.
Zhang Xingjiao secretly hooked up with several villagers who had a big feud with the Gou family in the afternoon. At this time, they also came forward one after another and exposed many crimes of these people, from grabbing land and exploiting usury to molesting women, and then to manipulating women. Dog bites people, big and small things, trivial things are all available, but these things rarely involve Gou Dagouer himself. After hearing this, Wu De always felt that it was not powerful enough and the atmosphere was not uplifted. Just when I was thinking about what I could do, I suddenly saw someone striding up to the stage and violently kicked an old man of the Gou family. This old man, whose center of gravity was already unstable, was suddenly thrown to the ground. , the people in the audience suddenly sighed in surprise. So far, no one has dared to take action against the Gou family. Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was Gou Bri, the cook of the Gou family.
Gou Bri actually had little contact with Zhang Xingjiao, and there was no grievance between them. It's just that Zhang Xingjiao knew that this cook had always had the habit of stealing food and stealing - which was nothing special. In the past, there was a saying that "if the cook doesn't steal, he won't harvest the grain." Although his surname is Gou, he is a foreigner. He has some skills and is very unpopular among the servants of the Gou family. From time to time, the supervisor will give him some eye drops, and he will often get slapped or withheld from his wages. After a few months He was so angry that he stole some money and was about to run away, but he was caught by the Gou family master who was in charge of the house, beat him half to death, and was imprisoned. He has a feud with the Gou family, and he fits the characteristics of a complete proletarian who is fearless of heaven and earth, so he becomes the target of the time travellers.
Gou Bri was still playing the drums a little while standing on the stage. He turned around and glanced at the corner of the stage. Xi Yazhou nodded to him, then he mustered up his courage and started to speak:
"I am a poor cook, and I have been cooking for the Gou family for many years. The weather has been bad these years, either drought or rain, and typhoons and hailstorms have come in turns. Everyone has a difficult life on weekdays. In the porridge A piece of sweet potato is considered a New Year. (Note: This is no exaggeration. Before the rebellion, Hong Xiuquan’s biggest wish was to eat white rice porridge and sweet potatoes every day. You can imagine the poverty of ordinary people. What about the Gou family? I am a low-class person. The cook, without knowing why, just said that I know their food is good.
"The first-class chefs in his family are all highly skilled at making dozens of dishes from one pig. For a plate of fried meat, a piece of meat from the back of a live pig is used, and nothing else is needed. To eat fish, you have to open your mouth and exhale. , to eat shrimps you have to eat them alive, and to eat rice you have to grind it three times. When cooking, it is all white rice, and there is not a single grain or sweet potato in it! If you get tired of eating white rice, you will make fried cakes and eat them once fried. A big pile...it takes ten years to drink. The ginseng soup comes from Liaodong and is half a foot long. The most hateful thing is Gou Xunyi's son Gou Dashao. This kid has been stabbed for eating steamed buns since he was a child. If he doesn’t want to eat it, he won’t eat it when it’s cold. When it’s neither cold nor hot, he asks two beautiful maids to hold a corner each and bring it to his mouth. He will take a bite of one of them and throw the rest away to feed the dog - "
Wu De frowned and asked Xi Yazhou in a low voice: "Who made this up? Do you have to be moderate when making up random things?!"
Xi Yazhou was not calm at all: "It was Du Wen who led Zhang Xing to teach them how to do it, isn't it good? You think it's outrageous, but the people love this tune."
"Isn't this nonsense..." Wu De was talking when the head of the Gou family who was kicked to the ground suddenly stood up and said tremblingly:
"Nonsense! There's no-" Before he could finish his words, several militiamen from the salt field villages around him had already swung down their sticks, stuffed a hemp core into his mouth, and dragged him away.
