Chapter 059: Public Indignation
The rich have no land, and the poor have no place to stand.
The people in the courtyard, sure enough, are all dressed in fine clothes and food, white and fat, compared with the hungry people outside and dying on the way, it is really a world of difference.
It is no wonder that in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, people were uneasy and thieves rose. There are Song Jiang and Fang La in the front, and Zhong Xiang and Yang Qi in the back, it's just weird, these people's eating looks are too ugly.
Xu Wenchao had a group of wives and concubines, and there were five or six young women of all sizes. These people are dressed in brocade clothes, full of gold and silver jewelry, all white and tender, full of red light, and they seem to have a really moist life.
"The rules in the army are known, if anyone is in trouble against the wind, don't blame Lao Tzu for not recognizing people with the steel knife in his hand!"
Seeing that the eyes of some of his subordinates frequently swept towards the trembling young women in the courtyard, a sullen heart could no longer bear it, Dong Ping opened a pair of bull's eyes, and the six-foot long knife in his hand was raised.
The sergeants came to their senses and hurried away. The rules in the army, not to mention the ravaging of women, is to molest, that is also the separation of head and body. Everyone is dreaming of hair color in broad daylight, and no one dares to go to Lei Chi for three points.
Besides, the military is not forbidden to go out to solve problems, so why bother to go against military regulations.
Dong Ping's eyes swept over the group of people in the courtyard, and he snorted coldly in his heart. A group of soft bones, the golden people go south, these people will never resist, but will open the door and surrender as soon as possible.
Weekdays of brocade clothes and food, the sound of dogs and horses, gentle township, the bones have already been soaked crispy, when you encounter a fierce god and evil Jinren, don't say resist, you must have wanted to pee your pants a long time ago!
If you are innocent and conscientious, it is not too much to eat and wear extravagantly. The key is to suck the marrow of the people, pill the corpses of the poor, and fill the tears of the poor with the lights and wine, songs and laughter, that is guilty.
I really don't know why these people can still live so peacefully?
If it weren't for Wang Song's military order, he really wanted to wipe out all this group of people.
Having said that, the Loyal and Righteous Army is now a source of water, and food and grass have become a big problem. I heard that this Xu Wenchao is the richest family in Linzhang County, and Dong Ping came to borrow grain, but he was blown out.
As soon as everyone inquired in private, it happened that Xu Wenchao relied on his black and white to eat all, doing all kinds of evil, and doing all the bad things, but he was a person who was cursed, so he made up his mind to get rid of this person.
The sergeant came out and said in a low voice: "Big brother, this guy has thousands of stones of food in his house, which is enough for everyone to use for a month." ”
Dong Ping nodded, glanced at the men, women and children of the Xu family in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Leave them half a month's ration, anyway, the crops outside will be harvested!"
When the sergeant went down, the cattle and horses in the village were brought out, and the carts were all sheathed, and in a few moments they were filled with grain.
"Xu Wenchao crisscrossed the township, for the sake of neighbors, and took advantage of it, and he was eradicated by my brother in Huangyazhai. If you dare to continue to do evil, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After Dong Ping finished speaking, he stood up from his chair and said loudly: "Brothers, go!"
With Dong Ping's order, carts full of grain and grass slowly drove forward.
"The villagers have listened well, the righteous army has not committed any crimes, so there is no need to panic. If the Xu family continues to run rampant in the township, the villagers can go to Huangzhuo Village to find the righteous army. The rebels will stand up for the villagers!"
The shouts of the rebels wafted through the village, and the villagers pricked up their ears to listen, while the bolder children and young people leaned on their respective walls and looked out.
"Da Lang, what are you doing here?"
Xu Tao picked up the long knife, and as soon as he stepped out of the lobby door, he bumped into his father and mother who were standing in the courtyard with tears in his eyes, as well as his neighbors.
"Da Lang, the strong man is fierce and vicious, so don't go out and be strong."
The bloody corpse of his younger brother lay in the courtyard. The strongmen shook the sky and thundered, and the younger brother and Xu Wenchao's second son Xu Liang were killed together.
"Dad, mother, Erlang is gone, I'm going to settle accounts with the strongmen!"
With a "snap", Xu Tao was slapped heavily in the face.
"Second uncle, what are you doing, why are you beating me?"
Xu Tao stood in the courtyard with his face covered, shouting aggrievedly, and the long knife in his hand was also snatched by his mother.
"Why, do you want your father and mother to be sent to the end?"
Xu Bingtian's face was pale, and he scolded his nephew sharply.
"Erlang fooled around with that Xu Liang every day, and he didn't change how many times he said, our family had already been poked off the backbone! A strong man came to embarrass the Xu family, and he had to come forward, but he lost his life. If you want to find someone to take revenge, you should also find Xu Wenchao's family!"
The rebels attacked, and the three or four people who died were all idlers and scoundrels in Zhuangzi. The children of serious families, who would have a relationship with Xu Wenchao's family.
"Big brother, Da Lang, carry Erlang's body and settle accounts with the Xu family! If it weren't for them, how could Erlang become what he is now, how would he die!"
"Go to the Xu family and ask Erlang for an explanation!"
The crowd shouted noisily, stepped forward to lift the body, and shouted and went out. Xu Tao had no choice but to follow behind, and his father and mother followed him closely.
"Mother, I'm scared to death, my life is finally saved!"
Seeing the other party swaggering away and leaving the sight, a group of people in the courtyard of the Xu family collapsed all of a sudden, and many people sat on the ground one after another.
"Xu Peng, go to the county and call the big officials back, there must be someone in charge of this family!"
Hearing that the other party had left the village, Xu Wenchao's Hun family gave an order in a sharp voice.
"The big officials spend all day drinking, sleeping in the willows, and Linzhang County is so big, where can the villain find it?"
Xu Peng rolled his eyes and replied irrationally.
"Hook the fence tiles, look for them one by one, how to find the big officials back. He is the only man in the family now, and he doesn't preside over who presides!"
Xu Wenchao's Hun family was calm, and continued to say sharply: "As long as you get the big officials back, your family's arrears in the past few years will be paid off!"
"Thank you master, the villain will do it!"
Xu Peng was overjoyed, hurriedly answered, and hurried away, but as soon as he got out of the gate, he was blocked by a large group of people.
"The surname is Xu, my Erlang was blown up by the thief's firearms, you return my Erlang's life!"
"Xu Wenchao is dead, my father-in-law's leg was injured, in case he is lame, how will he live this life in the future. You've got to stay with us!"
"Xu Wenchao is this dog, he killed my third brother, more than ten years of blood feud, now it's time to pay it back!"
"The dog thieves of the Xu family, return my daughter's life!"
A group of villagers in Xujiazhuang were full of righteous indignation, with fierce momentum, blood-red eyes, hideous faces, and gathered around one after another.
In the crowd, someone shouted loudly: "Xu Wenchao and the second child of the Xu family are dead, and the boss is a waste." Everyone's rushing in together and robbing him of a shit!"
"The Xu family has mountains of gold and silver, those strongmen only took away the grain, they didn't ask for gold and silver, everyone worked together to rob the Xu family!"
The Xu family turned pale, retreating step by step, doing many evils and rampaging in the township over the years, but they didn't expect that they would finally have retribution today.
"What are you going to do? Aren't you afraid of lawsuits?"
Xu Wen's harsh scolding of the Hun family was more like a struggle before dying, and the intimidation was just a bluff.
"Eat lawsuits? The birdmen from the government came to break their dogs' legs. Don't look at what time it is!"
A few people flinched, but more people hugged up, and the crowd was even more excited.
"Rush in and rob the shit!"
Some people shouted loudly, and the people were so angry that they shouted and rushed over.
", you guys are going to drive our Xu family to a dead end!"
Xu Wenchao's Hun family suddenly lay on the ground, played a trick, and howled loudly.
The villagers did not stop, they stepped over Xu Wenchao's Hun family, their eyes were warm, and they rushed into the inner room.
When the strongmen broke the village, there was a thunderstorm, Xu Wenchao and his son Xu Liang died immediately, and a group of dogs were also killed and injured.
Take advantage of your illness and ask for your life, and this matter will not be avenged, let alone when.
Several villagers came out with vases and antiques, Xu Peng and several strong men stepped forward to stop them, but they were knocked to the ground by the villagers, and the two begged for mercy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, where did everyone dare to delay, they quickly hid in the corner of the courtyard, or ran out of the gate, and fled frantically.
Once these people go berserk, it is possible to kill them. For now, the only way to do this is to hide for a while.
"Folks, don't chase it, those wrecks don't have anything on them!"
Someone shouted loudly: "The law does not blame the public, let's go in and divide the Xu family, I believe that no one in the government dares to care!"
Everyone rushed in, the backyard of the main hall, full of crazy snatching villagers, everyone rummaged through the cabinets, went to the room to drill the cellar, you come and go, robbing is very happy.
A large number of borrowed documents and land deeds were turned over, and one by one they were distributed to the borrowed villagers. For a while, the sky was full of snowflakes, and the borrowing coupons and other documents were torn to shreds.
"Xu Liu, this is your family's borrowing coupon! Xu Gu, this is your family's title deed!"
Xu Liu's hands trembled, he tore up the IOU, threw it into his mouth, his mouth was vigorous, swallowed and swallowed, and ate it cleanly.
Seeing the villagers carrying finely carved tables and chairs, dragging colorful brocade quilts, holding vases and antiques, carrying pots and pans, and even vegetables, pigs and mutton in the kitchen going out, Xu Liu's eyes were red and he joined the ranks of robbery.
Xu Tao couldn't help but be dumbfounded, seeing the crowd of people, you coming and going, he hurriedly shouted loudly, greeted his father and cousin, and carried his brother's body out.
Before going out, Xu Tao inadvertently looked at the corner under the willow tree in the courtyard, but saw that Xu Wenchao, the most handsome concubine, was pulling and pulling with Xu Peng, the banker of Xu's house, and whispered something.
Xu Tao shook his head and left. There are rumors in Zhuangzi that Xu Wenchao's concubine is a romantic person, and she often goes out of the wall, but now it seems that it is true, and the adulterer is in front of him.
Zheng Wu was the last to come with an axe. When he entered the courtyard, the Xu Mansion had been almost completely robbed. Zheng Wu turned around, didn't find anything useful, stood in front of the gate, and stared at the gate.
The sound of the axe chopping of "Titica" came, and the villagers who were crazy about robbing looked at it, and saw that Zheng Wu was chopping down the gate and threshold of the Xu family piece by piece and putting them aside, as if they were going to take them back as firewood.
Dong Ping led people away from Lixu, and his sergeants shouted in surprise, Dong Ping looked back, but saw the direction of Xujiazhuang, smoke and dust billowed and the fire soared into the sky.
