The sharp bayonet dazzled the eyes with cold light. Some people who couldn't bear it and wanted to take action woke up one after another.
The idea that the tiger-character flag was a rebel came to mind again. The scholar Kong Yan looked around and found that no one came forward. He was a weak scholar. Even if he stepped forward alone, it would not be of much effect. Moreover, there were many equally strong Tiger Flag soldiers around him.
"Let's all come together, they don't dare to do anything to us! Come on all of us!" Kong Yan himself did not dare to come forward, and called on others to rush forward.
But no one is stupider than anyone else. If everyone sees him, they won't go up to him, so naturally they can't take the initiative to be stupid and rush towards him. Yu Huai glanced at Kong Yan contemptuously, and then said to the crowd in front of him: "Since everyone is so anxious to know why I want to arrest those two people, I will have them escorted out for a public trial now." Hearing that a public trial was about to be held, no one else seemed to be doing anything well, and Kong Yan had a look of anxiety on his face.
He brought people to gather at the county government office just to prevent the public trial from being held. Now that the public trial is about to be held, everything he has done will be useless.
"Don't listen to him. He is deliberately lying to everyone. He just wants to delay his release. He must be released immediately." Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
When Kong Yan heard this cry, he immediately seized the opportunity and shouted loudly: "That's right, you are deliberately delaying time. You must let him go immediately. You have no right to arrest him."
"Let them go, let them go!" Many people in the crowd shouted blindly.
"Quiet, quiet!" Kong Zhenkan wanted to stop the restless crowd. However, there was no shortage of people in the crowd who had been inserted into the crowd, and they kept confusing the crowd, giving Kong Zhenkan no chance to stop the crowd.
Seeing that the crowd is getting more and more chaotic, a riot may break out at any time.
"Bayonets ready!" Yu Huai shouted, but he was targeting the Tiger Flag soldiers at the Yamen Gate.
Wow! All the soldiers held their bayonets in front of them, and some of the soldiers who did not have bayonets on their fire guns also took out their bayonets and installed them on the mouth of the fire guns.
"Take a step forward!" Yu Huai shouted, while pressing his right arm forward. tread! tread!
The soldiers took a step toward the crowd with bayonets in hand. The originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet, and some timid people sneaked away from behind the crowd and hid in a distant place.
"Is the stage for the public trial ready?" Yu Huai asked Kong Zhenkan, who was standing next to him, while it was quiet.
Kong Zhenkan said hurriedly: "Someone from the Yamen came back to deliver a letter, saying that the wooden platform we built two days ago was ripped off."
"Then go find more tables and put them on them. A living person can still choke to death." Yu Huai said to Kong Zhenkan,
"You should prepare now, the sooner the better."
"Yes, I will take people to prepare now." Kong Zhenkan, who had no intention of staying here for a long time, turned around and returned to the Yamen.
At this time, there were crowds of people outside the main entrance of the Yamen, and he was about to leave through other doors of the Yamen. Yu Huai turned to a soldier on the side and ordered: "Take more people to the prison and escort those two people to the public trial meeting. Be more careful on the way. If anyone dares to rob someone, you are allowed to do it. "
"Yes." The soldier who received the order turned and left. And just as the people on the Tiger Flag side were leaving, someone sneaked out from the crowd.
After Yu Huai arranged everything, he looked at the crowd in front of him again and said: "The public trial will be held soon. You can follow me there first. If there are still people who deliberately cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude." As he said that, his eyes After scanning the crowd in front of him, he finally landed on Kong Yan.
Compared to others hiding in the crowd and shouting secretly, Kong Yan, the obvious target, stood out the most.
"It makes sense for you not to let me go. I see that you have no intention of letting me go." Naturally, Kong Yan would not be frightened by Yu Huai's words, and he still kept shouting.
"Catch him and take him to the public trial for trial." Yu Huai pointed at Kong Yan with his hand. Two soldiers immediately walked out and grabbed Kong Yan.
Kong Yan did not expect that he would actually take action. He was so frightened that he hurriedly backed away from the crowd. At the same time, he did not forget to shout: "You have seen it, they want to kill people and silence them. They are not justified. They want to take action even if they can't talk." It's a pity that the two The soldier didn't care about this at all, and directly held down Kong Yan and searched him. After making sure that there were no dangerous items, he tied Kong Yan's hands with Kong Yan's belt.
"Let me go. I'm a scholar and have a great reputation. You can't arrest me." Kong Yan was afraid and hurriedly put out his support.
If you want to arrest someone with a meritorious service, you must first go to Xuezheng to cancel the person's meritorious service before you can arrest the person.
It's a pity that the Tiger Character Flag doesn't pay attention to this at all, not to mention that the Tiger Character Flag doesn't recognize the Ming Dynasty's fame. One of the soldiers punched Kong Yan in the stomach. In pain, Kong Yan only sucked in the cold air and had no time to scream.
The two soldiers dragged Kong Yan like a dead dog.
"Everyone will go with me to the public trial. I believe that after experiencing the public trial, you will definitely not say that I arrested the wrong person in Tiger Character Banner." Yu Huai said to the crowd in front of him.
At this time, a team of soldiers stepped forward to open a path through the crowd. Yu Huai led a group of soldiers to the location where the public trial was held.
Facing the uniformly armored Tiger Flag soldiers, the crowd in front of the Yamen Gate not only gave way, but no one stood up to stop Yu Huai from leaving.
And most of the people followed him and went to the public trial together. The servants arranged by the elders of each family also took the opportunity to escape back and deliver messages to their masters.
In order to know the results of the attack on the Yamen as soon as possible, the elders of each family gathered in a restaurant closest to the Yamen.
A servant had already sent back what happened in front of the Yamen.
"Trash, you can't do such a small thing well, and you still say you are some kind of genius. I think you are a fool." A clan elder at the table yelled.
Even the leader was arrested, and the plan to attack the Yamen had failed.
"I said at the beginning that we should prepare more people. When the time comes, don't talk nonsense to that guy named Yu and just rush into the Yamen to save people." A clan elder said at the side.
-
"It can't be that easy. Those mud-legged guys are not fools. The tiger thieves have all shown their weapons. How can there be a few who have the courage to take action?"
"I would say that Kong Yan is still useless. If he had some ability, he wouldn't end up like this." The elders on the table said something to each other, complaining to each other.
"Okay, don't blame this one or that one." The elders of the second Kong clan interrupted several clan elders and said immediately,
"We can't stop the public trial now, let's think about what to do next!" The table became quiet.
The two clan elders of the Kong clan looked at the clan elders on the table and said, "Why are you silent? Weren't you very talkative just now?"
