Stimulated by the money and women, the sluggish morale of the rebels suddenly rose.
The Confucius Mansion fell into chaos, with maids and servants running around in the gardens and corridors like headless flies.
Some servants who tried to escape were hacked to death by Wenxiang Sect rebels with knives.
The big and small leaders commanded the mob, and more than 300 people worked together to plunder hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from various rooms in Confucius' mansion.
The white money was placed in the yard by the mob, and piled up into mountains of silver in front of Yan Shenggong.
"Tsk, tsk, Mr. Kong is so rich, I'm afraid I might have moved all the money from Shandong to his house!"
"Move quickly! Don't talk nonsense. When the Kaiyuan soldiers catch up, they won't be able to take away even one tael!"
The stolen carriage parked neatly at the gate of the Confucius Mansion, and the money quickly filled the carriage, causing the ruts to sink deeply into the soil.
After the fifteen carriages were filled, there was still a thick layer of silver on the ground.
"It's a big cabinet. There are several cellars in it. Can you move it?"
A burly leader rushed to the door of the courtyard excitedly, holding a handful of jewelry in his left hand and a maid under his right arm, whose clothes were already torn.
Xu Hongru said angrily:
"What are you moving! The carriage can't pull that much, and the pursuers are behind you. Let's go quickly! Mao Laosan, didn't I tell you not to take a woman with you? Why don't you have ears?!"
While talking, the big cabinet glanced at the maid and found that the maid was quite pretty. He turned to the guard and said:
"I'll spare Mao Laosan this time. I think this girl has some wisdom. She may be related to Lishan's mother, so she brought her to my carriage! I'll teach her the teachings of smelling incense later."
After Xu Hongru finished speaking, he saw Er Ke standing in front of Yan Shenggong, mumbling what he was talking about.
Xu Hongru couldn't help but became furious. What time has it been? Why don't you move things quickly?
Yan Shenggong was tied to a tree and could not move his hands and feet. The second cabinet stuffed his socks into Kong Yinzhi's mouth.
Kong Yanzhi, who was dressed elegantly, immediately opened his eyes wide and fainted.
The second cabinet slapped Kong Yinzhi on the face, woke him up, and said angrily:
"I spent ten years hanging from my penis and having sex, but in the end I was just a scholar. My wife and children were separated, and I was forced to become a Wenxiang sect. You are a bitch, you play with women and kill tenants every day, and you can still be a saint! Bah!"
Like Kang Yingqian, Ergui, who was a scholar, had no respect for the descendants of Saint Kong in front of him. He stuffed the smelly socks into Yan Shenggong's mouth, opened his bow from left to right, and slapped Kong Yinzhi more than a dozen times in his face. Pointing to the gold, silver and jewelry piled in the yard.
"You bunch of rats are so greedy that you hollowed out Shandong and hollowed out Ming Dynasty. Are you satisfied now? Liaodong is at war, Southwest is at war, Shandong industry is at war, you are the cause of the Tatars, and you are the cause of the chieftains. Yes, the Wenxiang Sect was also caused by you! Today, I will do justice for heaven! I will disembowel you! Pay homage to the people who died in the Ming Dynasty."
The second cabinet, who was a scholar, finished a long speech to Yan Shenggong, raised his sword and was about to take action.
Ergui was one of the few scholars in the Wenxiang Sect. He had his own unique views on the situation in the Ming Dynasty, so he chose to follow Xu Hongru in the rebellion.
From Yanzhou to here, he and the Wenxiang Sect he believed in were about to be completely destroyed.
The extremely desperate scholar raised his sword and faced the obese Yanshenggong like a butcher killing a pig, preparing to disembowel Kong Yanzhi.
Kong Yinzhi's eyes were full of fear, his feet were kicking desperately, beads of sweat covered his forehead, and he made a gurgling sound in his throat.
At this time, the familiar sound of walking and drumming came from the distance.
"The Kaiyuan soldiers are here!"
The Wenxiang sect was in chaos. The rioters who were carrying money dropped the money and fled around in a hurry.
~~~~~~
Qian Zong Deng Changxiong, Wang Erhu Qi Jin, together with Jin Feng of the Chinese Army Guards and several generals of Zhenfu soldiers, mobilized elites from various ministries to gather 2,000 people and invaded the Confucius Mansion.
Oh, their name is to protect Duke Yan.
The remaining 300 Wenxiang Sect rebels were either killed or surrendered to the Kaiyuan Army.
The leader Xu Hongru was captured, the second cabinet committed suicide, and the remaining twelve big bosses all surrendered.
All living rebels were beheaded on the spot, including the twelve big bosses.
Yanshenggong, who had been in coma for a long time, and Xu Hongru, who was about to fall into coma, were escorted to Qufu County Yamen by Jin Feng and others to await the disposal of Marquis Pingliao.
Kang Yingqian, Qiao Yiqi, Yuan Chonghuang and others led the officials and officials stationed in Wendeng, including hundreds of civilian officials, to go to Confucius Mansion to count the seizures.
The money brought out by the Wenxiang Sect alone amounted to millions of taels.
~~~~~
At the suggestion of Chief Instructor Sen Ti, Wang Erhu ordered some recruits from the 2000 headquarters to go into the dungeon.
The new soldiers will be responsible for rescuing these tenants who have been imprisoned in Confucius' house and have never seen the light of day.
The instructor wanted to use this method to win over the people of Qufu, expose Yanshenggong's atrocities, and arouse the anger of the recruits, letting everyone know that Pingliao Marquis was too kind to his enemies, and that Kong Yinzhi deserved death and should be killed more This beast several times.
Yang Tong led his four brothers in the damp and cold tunnel.
On the ground not far from the heads of the five people, soldiers were carrying gold, silver and jewelry in full swing in the Confucius Mansion Courtyard.
However, it was quiet in this gloomy and cold tunnel. There was no sound around, only the footsteps of the five people and the scraping of the iron armor leaves on their bodies.
The five fire gun soldiers all belong to the first flag team of the 2000th Army. Yang Tong is the corps commander. The corps commander is the lowest-level officer in the Kaiyuan Army system. Above him is the captain and flag captain.
In the last Kaiyuan guard battle, the fire gunners failed to cause enough damage to Zhengbai Banner. After the war, Mr. Wang Qian complained that the new fire gunners were not courageous enough and needed to be tempered.
Therefore, the glorious mission of rescuing people from the dungeon was handed over to these new recruits, the Fire Gunners.
Five grown men walking in the dark and silent tunnel felt more terrifying than on the battlefield.
"Do you know? An old man from Qufu once said that the tenants of the Kong family who couldn't pay the rent were buried alive here..."
"The Kong family has been around since the Song Dynasty. How many people do you think we need to bury?"
"Stop saying a few fucking words, or you'll wake up the dead!"
Yang Tong listened to the chatter of several recruits and knew that they were emboldening him, so he did not ask them.
The tunnel became darker and darker as we went inside, and soon we couldn't see the faces of the people around us.
Yang Tong took out the fire folding bag from his mandarin duck coat and lit the torch to illuminate the pitted dungeon.
"This is?"
A finger stretched out from the low and cramped earth wall. Yang Tong quickly stepped back and suddenly pulled out his sword.
When they looked carefully, it turned out to be a dead bone. After looking at it for a while with torches, they discovered that it was a dead person buried in the wall. After countless years, the body turned into white bones.
After walking a few more steps, there were more and more bones around. Everyone gritted their teeth and continued to move forward. Finally, several fences appeared at the corner of the tunnel. Yang Tong guessed that this was the Kong Mansion dungeon.
He suddenly stopped and signaled everyone to stop talking.
"Everyone lit the fire sticks, raised the torches, and looked carefully. They were all brought up, alive and dead, to show to the soldiers and the people of Qufu."
After Yang Tong finished speaking, he led everyone to the cell, held a torch and looked inside.
"Hey, are you still alive?"
A Shandong gunman shouted loudly into the dark cell.
There was no echo in the darkness.
"Dead, next."
After passing five or six cells, there was no response, and a strong smell of corpses came from the last two cells.
The five people present have killed people, seen blood, and are not afraid of death.
"Brother Yang, there's no one alive anymore. Let's go up and catch our breath first, and then move the bodies."
Yang Tong agreed, turned around and walked outside.
After taking a few steps, I suddenly heard a faint voice coming from behind.
"What's your name?"
His heart was pounding, and he waved the torch around.
"Did you hear that?"
"What did you hear?"
"Nothing."
Yang Tong muttered to himself, scratched his head, and continued walking forward.
The voice rang in my ears again.
Yang Tong turned around suddenly, walked straight to the front dungeon, swung his one-handed waist knife, and cut off the hanging chains.
The chains burst out with dazzling sparks.
The strong fireman kicked open the wooden fence and searched carefully with a torch.
The thin woman was curled up in the grass in the corner like a cat.
"What's your name?"
