The people of the village were frightened all day, first with earth-shattering magnifying cannons, and then with shouts of killing. Because the village was broken so quickly, the villagers didn't get any news and found out that the brigade had entered the village. The men were scrambling to find a guy to resist, while the women hurriedly smeared the pot on their faces. Fortunately, the team that entered the village did not intrude on the people's house, and everyone was relieved when they went to attack the owner's house. For most people, the owner of the village is a hateful person, and it is better for their family to die alone. But I was afraid that I would suffer from the pond fish. So every household is uneasy. When I heard that I was going to call all the families to a meeting, I knew that I couldn't shirk it, so I had to walk towards the crossroads. For a time, there were crowds of people at the door of Gou's house.

The traversers piled the rubble and bricks in front of the steps, and put the blown away door panels on top to make a conference platform. Horizontal poles, suspended gas lamps. Although it was not yet nightfall, the gas lights were already lit everywhere, and the whole street was already bright. The people who were called looked at the lights that were brighter than a hundred lanterns with fear and amazement.

The farmers saw that the strong and majestic gate had been blown beyond recognition, and the stone lions, which had always been fangs and claws, were blown up and fell sideways into the street. A few young men winked at each other, a little amused. It's just a group of short-haired people wearing iron hats and green clothes holding shotguns, standing on all sides, and the three-edged short swords on the shotguns are shining in the sun, and some have blood marks, which are very scary. A few sharp-eyed people had already discovered that Zhang Xingjiao, the "waste" and "sour ding" of the village, was dressed in short-haired clothes, and he was also on the side -- this person came back once a few days ago, brought some rice and salted fish, and distributed them to some people, saying that he was doing things for short-haired after he was caught. Everyone thought that he, a scholar, was willing to betray the "famous teaching" he preached all day long, and succumbed to the thief, and he was probably caught and couldn't help himself. At this moment, it seems that he has completely surrendered to these pirates. This will not take care of the contempt and disdain. Those who used to be kind to him were busy greeting each other, set almost. Those who have offended in the past hurriedly hid in the crowd, fearing that they would see an evil coming to him, so they forced themselves to have something to do with the Gou family, and borrowed a knife to kill people.

At the beginning of the conference, Wu De first took the stage to speak, and he first said that he was a descendant of Chinese from overseas, and he had the same roots as everyone. Then he reiterated his slogan of "eradicating the strong and eliminating evil, protecting the territory and the people" -- this slogan has now been approved by the Executive Committee as the main propaganda slogan at the present stage. They focused on their victory in the Battle of Bairentan. The Gou family, who is known for their bad deeds and the local tyrants and gentry who harm one side, will beat one by one until they can no longer harm the common people. He called on the masses to be bold in exposing these people, including their dogs. When he said this, there was a lot of commotion below, and the people were not very interested in the slogan, but it was indeed a very happy thing to beat the owner of the village and liquidate those dogs who were powerful and prosperous on weekdays. There are also some people who usually rely on being related to the dogs in the Zhuangzi or making friends, and they feel uneasy when they hear this.

"Bring the Gou family's doglegs up!" At the sound of the order, I saw the teacher of the Gou family, the head of the village, the bookkeeper, the cleaner, the housekeeper, the entourage, and even the fat chef in the big kitchen, as well as a few of the same family members of the Gou family, wearing colorful paper-paste high hats, were escorted to the stage, and all of them bent over and hunched over to plead guilty. These characters who are powerful and domineering in the village and even in the county on weekdays are now discouraged, and they all look embarrassed with their butts pouted. There was laughter from the crowd, first a few people were laughing, and then the laughter slowly infected everyone, and the whole audience was daxiao. Xi Yaya and the others looked very excited. The trick of scandalizing the opponent is really useful.

Then, Tan Chengqing of Yanchang Village spoke, he studied in Du Wen's peasant training center for more than ten days, and he had a very good set of mass speeches, and he spoke in an orderly manner, adding fuel and vinegar to what Gou Xunyi did in Yanchang Village, and then expressed that the people of Yanchang Village and Damei Village were good citizens of the Ming Dynasty, and they could never tolerate the perverse behavior of local tyrants and bullies like the Gou family. This is to dispel the people's worries that this move will be suspected of being a "rebellion." Of course, Tan Chengqing didn't know these things, they were all materials given to him by Zhang Xingjiao, an intellectual.

Later, Zhang Xingjiao came to the stage to say that his experience was well known to everyone in the village, but listening to his emotional accusations in person still made many people sad. Wu De saw Zhang Xingjiao talking and talking, took out a thigh bone-like thing, wept while talking, and then hugged and cried on the stage, which caused the people below to cry for a while, and couldn't help but be puzzled, and asked Xiong Buyou next to him:

"What is Lao Zhang talking about?"

"It is said that his family's ancestral grave has been dug up by the Gou family, and the bones of several generations of ancestors are left with this bone."

"Didn't he say in the past that the ancestral grave had been dug up and the bones could not be found?"

"What about his nonsense," said Xiong Buyou, "this bone was found in a field grave that he did not know just now." ”

"Lao Zhang is really a talent. I can really make it up. ”

"It's not a fabrication, it's a fact that the ancestral grave was dug for the Gou family, and as for this bone, it's a propaganda prop. It's not a big deal to make a little bit of a fake propaganda. ”

The more Zhang Xingjiao talked on the stage, the more excited he became, and Zuihou demanded: pull these people to the stage and hand them over to the common people to fight and criticize. The militia of the Yanchang villagers, who had long been gearing up, immediately pulled these people to the stage. Zhang Xingjiao grabbed the collar of the feng shui gentleman Qingke, scolded while counting, and sometimes was full of old fists, this Qingke old man had already suffered a lot of sticks from Zhang Xingjiao just now, and then he was beaten by this punch and kick, it hurt and was afraid, where could he stand up, and collapsed on the ground with feces and urine. The more the people watched, the more excited they became, and they hugged each other vigorously.

Zhang Xingjiao secretly colluded with a few villagers who had a great feud with the Gou family in the afternoon, and at this time they also stood up one after another to expose many of these people's crimes, from grabbing land and tyranny, usurious exploitation to molesting women, and then to arson dogs and biting people, big and small things, trivial things, but these things rarely involve Gou Dagou Er himself, Wu De listened, always felt that it was not powerful enough, and the atmosphere could not be improved. I was thinking about what to do, and suddenly saw someone striding up to the stage, kicking at a master of the Gou family, this half-old man was already unstable, and at this time he suddenly fell to the sky, and the people in the audience suddenly sighed in surprise, until now, no one dared to do anything to the Gou family. Everyone looked at it, but it was the cook of the Gou family: Gou Buri.

Gou Buri actually has no relationship with Zhang Xingjiao, and they can't talk about grievances with each other. It's just that Zhang Xingjiao knows that this cook has always had the habit of stealing food and stealing -- this is not a big deal, and the so-called "chef does not steal, grain does not harvest" in the past. Although his surname is Gou, he is a foreigner, relying on his own skills, he is very unpopular in the slave group of the Gou family, and the steward will give him some eye medicine from time to time, often either hit the board or deduct his wages, a few months ago he was angry, stole some silver money and was ready to run away, but he was caught by the master of the Gou family who was in charge of the house, beaten half to death, and locked in prison. He has a feud with the Gou family, and he is in line with the characteristics of a complete proletarian who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and he happens to be the object of use by the traverser.

Standing on the stage, Gou Buri was still playing some drums, and when he glanced back at the corner of the stage, Xi Yaya nodded at him, and then plucked up his courage and began to speak:

"I am a poor cook, and I have been cooking for the old ladies and young ladies up and down the Gou family for many years. In recent years, the climate has been bad, either drought or rain, and typhoons and hailstorms have come in turn. Everyone has a hard time on weekdays, and the sweet potato in the porridge is considered the New Year. (Note: This is no exaggeration, Hong Xiuquan's biggest wish before the rebellion was to eat white rice porridge and sweet potatoes every day.) The poverty of ordinary people can be imagined. What about this Gou family? I'm a low-class cook, and I don't know what the truth is, so I say that what I know about their family is good.

"The first-class chefs in his family are all masters who can make dozens of dishes from a single pig, and a plate of fried meat uses a piece of meat on the back of a live pig, and nothing else. To eat fish, you have to eat those who open your mouth and exhale, to eat shrimp you have to eat alive, to eat rice that has to be milled three times, and that all the cooking is white rice, and not a single grain or sweet potato is added to it! When you get tired of eating white rice, you make fried cakes and eat them, and when you fry them, it's a big stack...... It takes ten years to drink, and the ginseng soup comes from Liaodong, and it is half a foot long. The most hateful thing is Gou Xunyi's son Gou Dashao, this little knife-beaten person, since he was a child, he ate steamed buns, he didn't eat when he was hot, he didn't eat when it was cold, and when he wasn't cold, he asked two beautiful maids to pinch a horn and send it to his mouth, and he took a bite in it, and the rest was all lost to feed the dogs-"

Wu De frowned and asked Xi Yaya in a low voice: "Who made this up, does it have to have a degree of nonsense?!" ”

Xi Yaya was not impassive at all: "It was Du Wen who took Zhang Xing to teach them, right?" If you think it's outrageous, the common people love this tune. ”

"Isn't this nonsense......" Wu De was saying, and the master of the Gou family, who was kicked to the ground, suddenly stood up and said tremblingly:

"Nonsense! No-" Before the words fell, several militiamen from Yanchang Village around him had already put down their sticks, stuffed a hemp core into his mouth, and dragged it aside.
