433 m riot
"Who? who's farting, stand up for me...... I'll hack you alive......" Boss Mi heard the voice in the crowd, and suddenly became angry and scolded the street with his feet.
"Lose your conscience, who said this kind of loss of conscience? Without the Prime Minister, without the New Army, we would have slaughtered the Japanese a long time ago, and you still want to have rice to eat? How can you forget your roots......
Boss Mi's eyes were torn apart, and he pointed to the corner where the voice came out and scolded, "Stand up... Do you dare to do it, a grandson? There's a kind of ...... you stand up for me."
But no matter how he shouted, how the crowd searched, trying to find those provocateurs in the dark night was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
After scolding for a long time, many people around sighed, "Hey...... Boss Mi, don't scold, we are not people without conscience, we are also forced to do so, the family has to eat...... Forget it, it's up to you, half a liter is half a liter......"
Boss Mi calmed down for a long time, and finally gave up the attempt to find those villains, and more than a thousand people in the black hole couldn't find it if they wanted to.
He turned back to the second shopkeeper and nodded, "Open two door panels and sell rice......
With the boss's order, the frightened little and pale man in the shop removed the two door panels and officially began to sell rice to the people, but this time the sale was opened, and the situation was a little wrong.
"Oops, oops, don't squeeze it...... People say they're selling rice, why are you in a hurry? My shoes ......."
"Feet, my feet...... You can trample me to death......"
I don't know how to make a mess in the crowd, there is always a force surging in the dark, the crowd keeps squeezing forward, and the people in the front layer are about to be squeezed into photos.
Boss Mi saw that it was not good, and hurriedly yelled, "Don't squeeze it, it's going to die...... Damn, close the door, if you squeeze any more down, the shop will collapse......"
This time Boss Mi's response is completely wrong, he still has no experience in dealing with group incidents, you have given hope to the chaotic crowd, how can you close it again?
It's not a wooden board that's closed, that's the hope of people to eat, and now people's feelings are already very delicate, and it's not easy for the crowd to maintain this sanity, where can I stand up to the excitement of Boss Mi.
"No...... My rice ......" Countless people shouted and rushed forward, half a bucket of rice is nothing in normal times, but now Naha, that is the life of the family.
The crowd swooped forward with one heart, and several guys didn't want to block it at all when they added a few wooden boards, only to hear a bang, and the door panel facing the street was all knocked down, and the guys who were stiff in the rice shop were slapped under the door panel one by one, and a few of the weak ones were directly knocked unconscious.
"Folks, grab it...... I just said that they were profiteers, now you can see it...... They don't want to sell us rice at all......
"It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let's take care of myself...... Anyway, our parents and children can't starve to death, let's rob them..."
The crowd suddenly went crazy, countless heads were squeezed into the rice shop, the guys under the door panel were crushed and vomited blood, the mountains of white rice were in trouble, and the ant-like people rushed up to open the rice bags and filled them, not caring how much white rice was scattered on the ground and was wasted in vain.
Outside the chaotic crowd was the angry roar of Boss Mi, and he even pulled out the self-defense pistol from his waist, but before he could fire a warning shot, the second shopkeeper grabbed his arm and dragged him desperately into the alley.
"My boss, don't get into trouble, just let them rob it...... Is money or life important?"
"You fart... It's not a question of money, it's military rations, and more than half of the store is military rations...... "But what's the use of shouting now? The crowd has fallen into a frenzy, and there is no reason to talk about it at this time."
"Look, there's silver dollars here...... It's all Mexican eagles... Everyone hurriedly grabbed ......" The silver coins in the rice shop were not saved in the end, and the mob finally found the treasure.
The momentum of the rice riot has become bigger and bigger, and it is impossible to hide this movement from the new army, and General Liang Kun, who was secretly monitoring the warships at sea in Qixing Mountain, soon got the news of the riot.
"What? Rice riots...... Snatched all our military rations? bastard......" Liang Kun was so angry that he smashed the telescope in his hand, he was in a bad mood tonight, and a brand-new sea ship appeared on the sea for some reason, and no one knew what the conspiracy of the French was.
Liang Kun had no more than eight hours of rest in the past four days, and he was like a grumpy lion tossing and forth in the hidden fortifications.
In all fairness, Liang Kun and Cai Mao are not talented military strategists, they are at best two fierce generals, their understanding of the strategic level is far inferior to Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun and others, to put it mildly, their judgment of the general trend is even inferior to Xiang Ying, Jin Sanshun and other students.
The higher the education process, the higher people's vision, and God's perspective is helpful to help people establish a sense of the big picture.
Liang Kun and Cai Mao have plenty of actual combat experience, if you let them fight a local war, they guarantee that they can complete it very well, but let them lead a national war, which will cost their relatives.
The French navy is desperately bombarding, the army is constantly charging in Beishan, the country has to adjust the deployment of troops at any time, and the people must be careful of the infiltration of spies...... Coupled with the fact that a large amount of materials needed to be mobilized, countless tasks had already exhausted the two generals and made them miserable.
Today, when Liang Kun heard that someone dared to rob the military rations, the anger that he had been holding back suddenly came out: "Damn, the foreign enemy hasn't been killed, and the internal ghosts are starting to make trouble again...... Come on, bring two companies of men and horses to suppress me, and those who dare to rob the military rations will be killed......"
"Yesβ" The herald turned as if to walk, but at that moment a group of people walked in from outside the fortifications.
"Stop... What are you going to do? What kind of order is this, how can you suppress the people? Don't you think Ryukyu is chaotic enough?" Walking in from outside the fortifications was Xiao Letian's father-in-law, Fan Yao, the shopkeeper.
"Old shopkeeper, why are you here, it's dangerous here..."Liang Kun didn't dare to play a prestige in front of Fan Hao no matter what, he hurriedly greeted him.
After the torment of the past few days, Fan Yao's eyes were also full of red bloodshots, and his whole body was full of the smell of smoke: "The general must not do it, the prime minister has already said that the people are the water and the army is the fish, if we suppress the people today, who will support us in the future?"
"Oh, old shopkeeper, when is this, what do you still want to do? The military rations have been robbed, what will we eat in the future? The French are determined to play with us, the sea is blocked, and now there is a shortage of domestic supplies in the Ryukyus, and there is no food and grass, what do you let me use to fight?"
Fan Yao waved his hand to signal the general to calm down, "I know, I know what you said, but have you ever thought about it, general, is it really that the people can't eat in today's rice riot?
"Lao Yu is a businessman, and he has seen things like people's livelihood more or less, although our Ryukyu is not very rich, but for more than a year, the prime minister has governed far better than Jiangnan, and the people have more than two or three months of surplus food......
"It's only been four days of fighting, and I admit that the people are a little panicked, and they are willing to store more supplies, but they don't burn their eyebrows?
Liang Kun was stunned when he heard this, "What do you mean?" Fan slapped the table, "There are ghosts here, there are definitely people instigating them, and it is difficult for us to catch these little ghosts in the dark night, if you suppress it again, I'm afraid things will make a big fuss..."
"Oops...... I'm confused..."Liang Kun patted his head and shook his head desperately, "I'm really a waste, why can't I understand this, if there is some bloodshed between the military and the people, the good situation laid down by the prime minister will be completely abolished...... Damn, shit..."
Fan Yao took out a cigar from his arms, lit it, and handed it to Liang Kun, "Don't be upset, you're just too busy, I have a way to ...... the current chaos."
Fan Yao really guessed correctly, this rice riot was someone secretly playing ghosts, when the chaos of the rice shop reached its peak, several sneaky figures drilled out of the crowd and soon disappeared into the alley.
"Oh mom, I'm tired to death, who would have thought that this group of people is so energetic, I'm almost trampled to death as a free waist horse kung fu master, and I won't serve me next time I have this errand to kill Lao Tzu......"
"Phew...... Stubborn donkey, you will make trouble, just now you have a loud voice, almost let people find out, you don't want to live, don't bother me......"
"Chang Sanhao...... You're fucking against me again, don't you? I really think I'm not going to beat you up......?
The two people who quarreled were the two spy chiefs of the Manchu Qing Dynasty stationed in Ryukyu, Stubborn Donkey and Chang Sanhao, and the woman in front of them was the object of jealousy, the female detective Sun Xiaomei.
"Enough, can you two stop it, this is not the Qing Dynasty, this is Xiao Letian's territory of Ryukyu, you two don't want to live, aunt and grandma I still want to live..."
Sun Ximei scolded one after another, which made the two enemies shut up, but just after a few minutes of silence, a spy on the periphery guard suddenly ran back and whispered, "My lord, there is a dense sound of horses' hooves from the west, it seems that Liang Kun and they have been tricked, this is to send cavalry to suppress it, right?"
When the stubborn donkey heard this, he immediately jumped up from the ground, "Okay, good, it's good, let them kill, as long as they see blood, Xiao Letian's people's hearts will be completely finished......"
Chang Sanhao also became excited, "Yes, yes, yes, no wrong, no wrong...... A group of Diao people robbed the military rations, I don't believe that this group of soldiers can bear it?"
The horseshoe on the stone pavement of the long street trampled all the way, knocking out countless sparks. Ryukyu was originally an island country, where horses were very scarce and concentrated in the hands of the army, and when the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the long street, all the people knew that the new army had arrived.
"Broken...... It's the new army, the new army has sent cavalry, is this to kill us?" The old man who grabbed the rice pocket in his hand trembled like a sieve, and forgot to flee for his life.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with me? What kind of confusion am I making in my head? How dare I rob money......" The woman who came to her senses let go of her hand and all the silver coins fell to the ground.
Xiao Letian's rule over the Ryukyus had only been established for more than a year, and now was the time when his prestige was at its strongest, and the scene of the massacre of the Japanese was still being replayed in front of the people's eyes, and the people's awe of the army at this time was unimaginable.
"Run...... We've committed a great crime......" The crowd shouted in unison, and thousands of people flew around like flies with their heads covered, and the situation suddenly turned into a stampede.
