When Zhou Yu led the men and horses to Xuwen County, he happened to meet the sugar farmers besieging the county government.

It turned out that Ma Jiyuan rushed to Xuwen County after writing a letter to Zhu Hongsan. Ma Jiyuan knew that Zhu Hongsan was a murderous person, and when Zhu Hongsan's army arrived, he would definitely kill a river of blood.

So Ma Jiyuan thought about the people and saw if he could solve this matter independently.

But Wang Youdao kicked their noses in the face, knowing that after Ma Jiyuan came to Xu Wen, they forced Ma Jiyuan to agree to stop the sugar factory. This kind of major event is something that Ma Jiyuan can decide, so they are at a stalemate with Wang Youdao.

In the past few days, Wang Youdao also wants to force Ma Jiyuan to solve this matter as soon as possible. It happened that Sun Chao, the political envoy of Guangdong, asked Lord Sun's writing to also arrive in Xuwen County, so Wang Youdao brought people to negotiate with Ma Jiyuan.

Wang Youdao thought that there was a document from the prefect's boss, and this Ma prefect could give in obediently, but he didn't expect Ma Jiyuan to have a relieved look, which made Wang Youdao feel very bad.

Ma Jiyuan didn't pay attention to Sun Chaorang's words at all, not to mention that Feng Ruoshu, the governor of Liangguang, was there, and the political envoy couldn't take his own four-grade prefect. What the political envoy can do is to go straight to the Ministry of Officials and let the Ministry of Officials transfer themselves.

Ma Jiyuan originally wanted to save these sugar merchants, after all, they were all Daming people. Ma Jiyuan had already received Zhu Hongsan's letter and knew that the King of Chu had mobilized the Qiongzhou garrison army to reinforce him. But seeing that Wang Youdao was still so unrelenting, Ma Jiyuan also made up his mind, since this Wang Youdao in front of him was looking for death, then he Ma Jiyuan didn't care.

Therefore, Ma Jiyuan was noncommittal about Wang Youdao's threat, which made Wang Youdao very depressed. Of course, he didn't dare to do anything to Ma Jiyuan in the county office.

You must know that Ma Jiyuan is different from the unlucky Xue County Order, Ma Jiyuan is already a high-ranking official, if he dies, it will not be as simple as dying in Qipinzhi County.

Therefore, Wang Youdao ordered his subordinates to besiege the county government when he came out of the door of the county government, and he must force Ma Jiyuan to comply.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhou Yu came. As soon as Zhou Yu and his people arrived at Xuwen County, they saw many people on the street at the gate of the city. Zhou Yu had already received Zhu Hongsan's order, and this time he came to Xu Wen to kill people.

So at the gate of the city, Zhou Yu ordered to branch out the three artillery pieces he brought, this time he was in a hurry, and all the artillery was not brought in Qiongzhou, so he only brought three artillery pieces.

But that was enough, Zhou Yu ordered all the shotguns to be loaded and fired in the back of the sugar farmer.

After the artillery was replaced with new gunpowder, the range of the shotgun has reached 600 meters. Now only 300 meters away from these sugar farmers, each lead bullet can penetrate three or four human bodies.

After Zhou Yu gave the order to open fire, the sugar farmers were knocked down in rows like cutting leeks in front of the dragon's eye-sized lead bullets, and more than a hundred people were killed in the first salvo. There were countless wounded, and many people with broken hands and legs were lying on the ground, and screams were everywhere for a while.

At first, the crowd in front of the county government was stunned by the loud noise coming from behind, and no one thought it was the sound of artillery, because no one thought that the government could be so ruthless.

After the second artillery salvo, everyone heard the sound of artillery, and someone shouted behind that the officers and soldiers were coming. For a while, the crowd was in chaos and scattered and fled.

Wang Youdao had just come out of the county government at this time, and he was also stunned. But when I saw the dead bodies behind me that had been broken into two knots by lead bullet, I was so frightened that I peed in my pants. It's not that he hasn't seen dead people, and he also spent some time on White Sands Island when he was young. However, the brutality of killing with hot weapons is not comparable to that of cold weapons.

Seeing the rows of people behind him being broken in two by lead bullets, Wang Youdao knew that the prefect had a strange smile on his face just now, and it turned out that he had been prepared. But where did these officers and soldiers come from?

The Hai'an Institute has already obtained its own silver, indicating that it will not be mixed in. Could it be from Guangzhou? Wang Youdao suddenly felt that he had done something wrong.

If you make a mistake, you will think about it later, the most important thing now is to run for your life, Wang Youdao is waisted, and the fleeing crowd escaped from the county. Flee back to Wangjiazhuang.

Ma Jiyuan and Tang Qiu saw Wang Youdao going out, and Tang Qiu was just about to speak when he heard a loud noise outside. Tang Qiu said: "The weather is very good today, why is it thundering?" ”

Ma Jiyuan had heard the sound of artillery and knew that it was the sound of artillery firing. He knew that reinforcements had arrived, so he hurried out.

Ma Jiyuan and Tang Qiu went out and saw dead bodies all over the ground, and the death was extremely miserable. The ground was covered with all kinds of internal organs, and the wounded were rolling all over the ground. Ma Jiyuan saw a man with half of his body lying on the ground holding his intestines and screaming, and there was another person next to him holding half of his head and crying, it should be that his relatives were killed.

Ma Jiyuan experienced the bloody battle of Xinyang back then, saw the cruelty of the war, and was able to adapt to it. But Tang Daxian Ling on the side saw this, his legs trembled in fright, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and no one paid attention to Tang Daxian Ling peeing on his pants.

Here Zhou Yu saw the crowd scattering, and ordered to start cleaning up the idle people, etc., Zhou Yu said: "Don't live the mouth, don't be wounded, and those who don't squat down will be killed." ”

The commander shouted on the side: "If you don't squat, you will be killed!" ”

The crowd in front of them quickly squatted down with their heads in their hands after hearing this, but most of them were stunned by the artillery, ran around, and were killed on the spot by the musketeers.

Here, Ma Jiyuan saw that the crowd had dispersed, and the musketeers still shot one after another, so he couldn't help but get angry, stepped forward to find Zhou Yu, and asked, "Commander Zhou, the crowd has dispersed, why do you still want to kill innocents?" ”

Zhou Yu said expressionlessly: "Lord Tong, the lower officials have received an order from the King of Chu, and all the sugar farmers who make trouble will not be forgiven. After speaking, he handed over Zhu Hongsan's order to Ma Jiyuan.

Ma Jiyuan saw that the order was written by Zhu Hongsan himself, and no one knew his kind of simplified Chinese characters in this era. It is clearly written that all the resisting sugar merchants have their families killed, and the sugar farmers led by them will be killed.

Seeing that it was indeed Zhu Hongsan's order, Ma Jiyuan had nothing to say, and handed over the order to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu said: "Please send a guide to Lord Ma, so that I can arrest the sugar merchant." ”

Ma Jiyuan couldn't turn around and grabbed Tang Qiu, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Lord Tang, let your servants lead the way to catch Wang Youdao." ”

Tang Qiu was so frightened that he agreed again and again, and regardless of whether his pants were still wet, he hurriedly went to the county office to find the team leader and let him lead the way to arrest people.

Zhou Yu divided the 2,000 people he brought with him into ten groups, and every group of 200 people took a servant to catch the sugar merchants. At the same time, they ordered them to kill the man on the spot after they were caught, and the woman was escorted to the county government to wait for treatment.

After assigning the task, Zhou Yu led a team to Wangjiazhuang to arrest Wang Youdao, and at this time Wang Youdao had just fled home. As soon as I changed into clean pants in the house, a family member outside reported that the official army had arrived at Zhuangzikou.

Wang Youdao knew that his Zhuangzi could not resist the artillery, so it seemed that he had to flee to Hai'an first. The money guards there have received bribes from themselves for so many years, and they should be able to keep themselves safe for a while.

Wang Youdao didn't stay at all when he thought of this, and immediately escaped from the backyard, leaving his wife, concubines, sons, and daughters in the mansion.

As soon as Wang Youdao left, Zhou Yu led people to the door, and he didn't knock on the door, and directly opened the door with cannonballs. Then lead the team into the slaughter. Wang Youdao is a big family, and his family has been operating in Xu Wen for decades. The population of the house is more than 200 people, who would have thought that the end of the world would come today, and the entire Wang family would become a Shura hell for a while.

Regardless of the master, the servant, the elderly, or the child, as long as the man was killed on the spot, the woman was gathered in a courtyard to be guarded. An hour later, all the men of the Wang family were killed cleanly.

Zhou Yu came to the courtyard where the women were held and saw more than 100 women, mainly in the color of the maid's ring. This is an old lady who rushed out and scolded, "Where are you pirates, don't you know our royal family? ”

Zhou Yuyi frowned, thinking that the king of Chu said that he would sell these women to a brothel, and such an old man would not be able to sell them for a price, plus insulting himself. Zhou Yu pulled out his handcuffs and shot the old woman to death. Then he said, "Who else has something to say?" ”

Seeing Zhou Yu so ruthless, and the one who dared to speak, all the women trembled with fright.

Zhou Yu asked, "What about Wang Youdao?" Who knows, speaking out can save you from death. ”

Hearing that there is no need to die, these maids have come out one after another.

When Zhou Yu heard this, it turned out that Wang Youdao had run away. These people will be escorted to the county government first, and Wang Youdao's whereabouts will be discussed later.

The next step is simple, start digging three feet into the ground in Wang's house to find silver. Wang Youdao didn't expect that he was unlucky, and the silver accumulated by the three generations of the Wang family was cheaper than Zhu Hongsan. In the Wang family, 500,000 taels of silver were dug up, and countless other gold jewels.
