Chapter 190: Are You Cheap?
"Ma, I don't know if he had such courage when Jiannu came!"
Yang Xin looked at the old guy speechlessly.
Yan Shenggong continued to be silent.
"Yang Yanshi, if it doesn't work, let's go around, right?"
Li Chengzuo said tremblingly.
He didn't think that these young men didn't dare to do it, there were many tax eunuchs who were killed in Jiangnan back then, and all of those eunuchs had holy decrees, all of them were cronies of the emperor, but they were still beaten to death by people, set on fire, and thrown into the Yangtze River to feed the fish, and it was not a place, almost everywhere dared to do this. In the final analysis, this Ming Dynasty is the imperial power of the county, the local gentry have the final say, the family has the final say, as long as you provoke the anger of the people, they dare to directly incite the people to change and kill you.
It's just a matter of blaming the blame afterwards.
I'm afraid that this old guy in front of me will have at least ninety, and this age is completely exempt, and he can't be arrested, tried, or sentenced.
Even capital crimes will not be pursued.
When the time comes, as soon as people enter the city and shout and fight, Yang Xin's thousands of people will be completely drowned.
What's more, it is impossible to really kill, this is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty's taxation, Su Song Changsanfu supports the Ming Dynasty's finances, and the Changzhou Mansion may pay more than a northern province, and the capital will starve if it is chaotic here.
I can't afford to mess with it here.
So Suzhou was so ruthless back then, and Wanli endured it.
"Bypass? Yang doesn't have this habit! ”
Yang Xin sneered.
After saying that, he walked straight forward, and the Swing Kou army behind him immediately followed.
Li Chengzuo looked at Yan Shenggong, Yan Shenggong continued to pretend to be dead, he looked at the guy who wore the crown of Zhongjing, the latter quietly retreated to the crowd, poor Fengcheng Hou stomped his feet in a hurry, but he couldn't do anything but watch Yang Xin cross the bridge. However, Yang Xin stood in front of the doorway of the urn city, and then turned back and said something to Huang San, who quickly ordered the soldiers to separate, and then untied the ropes around their waists one by one, and then these mountain people threw out their flying claws and quickly climbed the city wall like a group of apes.
Yang Xin continued to stand in front of the doorway.
Behind him, a steady stream of soldiers crossing the bridge also divided into two sides, and then quickly climbed the city wall one by one, and soon all the 1,000 Bandits were on the city.
There was no reaction in the city.
The young men inside didn't care about the city walls at all.
Anyway, Yang Xin dared to go in, and countless big wooden sticks were waiting for him on both sides of the street.
The old guy continued to stand tremblingly in the doorway of the main city wall on crutches, far away from Yang Xin across the road in the urn city.
There was silence all around.
Just after the last of the Dangkou soldiers climbed the city wall, Yang Xin finally began to move forward.
Li Chengzuo watched in horror.
Soon Yang Xin walked through the urn city and stood in front of the old guy, and the two continued to look at each other so closely......
"The Holy Purpose is here!"
Yang Xin held up the holy decree given to him by the Apocalypse and said in Wujin dialect.
"What, the old man can't hear it!"
The old guy said.
And then he smirked.
"Isn't it funny?"
Yang Xin said.
"Ah, did you say I had dinner? No, I was so angry with those traitors that I couldn't eat it! I'm ninety-two, and I hate those traitors the most. ”
The old guy said with a smile.
"You forced me, I hope you'll be able to laugh later!"
Yang Xin said.
After speaking, he stretched out his hand upward, and the two ropes on it hung down at the same time, and then Yang Xin jumped up, grabbed the rope in mid-air at once, and then kicked the city wall with both feet, and the whole person turned upside down, and the next moment directly turned over the arrow buttress and landed on the city wall. The four Dangkou soldiers quickly put away the ropes coiled in the arrow stacks, and Yang Xin immediately jumped up again, jumped onto the tower above him, and then walked behind the tower facing the street inside the city.
What unfolded in front of him was a torrent of human heads.
Countless young men were on the street leading to the south in front of them, one by one with big sticks and looked up at him, stretching for nearly a mile to the south, and the alleys on both sides were also crowded with young people, and it was obvious that a vast sea of people's war was waiting for him.
It was a surprise indeed.
He gave the Donglin Party these days to prepare, and the latter fully fulfilled his requirements.
I have to say that these guys still have some skills.
Yang Xin stretched out his hand to the side, Yang Huan hurriedly handed him a copper horn, this was made by Yang Yanshi himself, and the effect of his loud voice was okay, at least it could be transmitted dozens of feet away, which was basically enough, anyway, there was no other way.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Yang Xin held the horn and coughed twice very magnificently.
The young men below looked at this traitor suspiciously, obviously inexplicable by his actions.
"I'm curious."
Yang Xin shouted.
Of course, it is also in Wujin dialect.
"I'm really curious, what make you, a group of tenants who are oppressed by the gentry on a daily basis, hired laborers who work hard every day under the beating and scolding of the workshop owner, who have no food and clothing, and who even women are likely to be bullied by their masters, what makes you listen to them so much?
Will they do you any good?
Will they let you tenants not have to pay rent?
Will they give you hired workers a raise?
Or will they give you back the deeds of sale of your slaves?
Please tell me, what makes you so obedient that you dare to fight against the emperor for them? What I have in my hand is a holy decree, and I am going to Wuxi to arrest a suspect, so what does this have to do with you? This suspect's family is still a usury, are you doing this, and the old men who gave you usury will be able to find out in their conscience that they don't want your Hades account?
Can any of you give me any other reason why you are standing here at this moment, other than being cheap? ”
He shouted.
There was a head-to-ear below.
"Everyone will be punished for traitors!"
One of the nearest green worms shouted indignantly.
Several green insects around him shouted in the same way, and even raised their sticks in their hands.
"Look at them, look at them, are they the same as you?"
Yang Xin said.
"They are different from you, Shi Nong and Gong, they are high soldiers, they are going to be officials to beat you boards, they are going to force you to pay taxes with officials, they are corrupt officials who trample on your heads, drink your blood and eat your flesh.
Look, you all have different clothes.
Tell me, who of you has not been forced to pay rent by the landlords and gentry? Who of you hasn't been deprived of wages by your employer? Who of you hasn't been whipped by your master? They force you to hand over your rations and then eat bran for your whole family, they force you to sweat and blood to earn millions for them, and they bully you like animals.
And what about you?
But you came to rebel against them, and did this kind of thing to kill the heads and punish the nine clans?
Aren't you cheap?
Tell me, aren't you cheap? ”
He yelled.
In those alleys, young men began to quietly leave.
"Don't listen to him reversing right and wrong, this traitor has killed countless Zhongliang, and he thinks that we are framing Zhongliang here, we must not let him go!"
The greenworms continued to shout.
"The family property of the person I killed is three million taels, and the Ye Mao I just caught is the previous third-grade official, and the person I want to arrest is a loan shark, I'm very strange, what does this tama have to do with you? The family with a fortune of three million was made by corruption and perversion of the law, and the third-grade official never gave you a penny of benefits, as for the usury, he taught at home, but I want to ask, do any of your children study in Donglin Academy? Is Donglin Academy for your children?
Your children may not even be qualified to enter the gate of Donglin Academy?
So I'm going to catch him and your?
I arrested him, you have to pay seventy percent of the rent, pay off the debt of the king of Hades, and get tired half to death every day to earn those few cents of silver and then hurry up to buy rice for the pot, if I don't arrest him, you will change the transaction to thirty percent of the rent, no need to roll the profit, you can earn a penny of silver every day? You all know that this is a dream, whether I catch him or not, you will not change anything, you are still poor ghosts, you will still be trampled under the feet of the gentry, in this case, what are you here for?
For love and justice? ”
Yang Xin shouted.
The young people on the street dispersed.
Those green insects roared angrily in the crowd, and even grabbed the young men who left, angrily scolding them and trying to save their hearts, but unfortunately, the most people smiled at them embarrassedly, and even threw them aside when they met a bad temper. And the number of people who dispersed became more and more, like a crumbling sand, and even those who could not be heard in the distance were scattered, and the poor green worms pulled one after another in vain, as if a trick had been smashed, begging the audience to stay. It's a pity that everything is meaningless, and soon the originally crowded street is like a stadium after the end of the football game, and only a few people are left there at a loss.
In the end, even those green worms stopped pulling people.
They were all there looking at each other with their heads downcast.
However, Yang Xin didn't bother to look any further, and then he stuffed the copper horn to Yang Huan on the side in his adoring gaze, and then jumped off the city tower.
"Let's go, let's go into town!"
He beckoned to Huang San and the others.
Huang San hurriedly called out to the soldiers and followed Yang Xin down the city wall.
"Wait!"
Yang Xin, who was standing behind the city gate hole, suddenly said.
Then he turned around and walked over to the old fellow......
"Are you still laughing?"
He asked, leaning his head out.
The old fellow turned his head tremblingly, looked at him with a sad expression, and then raised his cane in the same trembling manner.
Yang Xin looked up suspiciously following his movements, looking at the crutch that kept shaking, and also watching the crutch fall towards him again......
"I'll kill you traitor!"
The old squire scolded weakly.
Then Yang Xin fell backwards more than a foot as fast as he could, the old guy didn't pump him, and at the same time he couldn't continue to stand firm, and then fell to the ground directly with the crutch and twitched......
"You've all seen it, and I haven't touched him with a finger!"
Yang Xin raised his hands and looked at Yan Shenggong and Chen Chengzuo outside with an innocent expression.
