New Beginnings (10)

After the part of presenting grievances is over, the emotions of the masses have been fully mobilized. According to the plan, Xu Dian should appear on this matter. As you step by step onto the judgment stage, the perspective is constantly changing, from the beginning you can only see the crowd in front of you, to gradually see more people, after fully stepping on the stage, the whole scene under the stage is in full view. It was a sea of angry and excited masses. Completely different from looking down from a simple watchtower, the watchtower is in a surveillance angle, and what you see is more of the backs of the masses.

"You are going to do justice for the people, not for the sake of your own fame." Chen Ke's words echoed in his ears. Raising his eyes and looking at Chen Ke's figure on the stage, Xu Dian felt that he had enough willpower to face these people from the front.

"Folks, kill people to pay off their debts and pay off their debts. Isn't this a heavenly principle? Xu Dian shouted, "Liu Yixuan killed and raped." Have we wronged him? ”

"He was not wronged! Kill Liu Yixuan! ”

"Kill Liu Yixuan!"

The tidal wave of shouts came from the audience with strong passion. Just the sound wave has a kind of pressure, which makes Xu Dian's sweat straight, as if he is about to be pushed back by the enthusiasm of the masses. And Liu Yixuan on the stage was already weak, and he was paralyzed on the table like mud. He had cried and pleaded, but to no avail. The people didn't have the slightest pity for him, all the voices were cursing and scolding, and all the statements were to ask Liu Yixuan to pay for his life. The accusations of so many people completely deprived Liu Yixuan of his will, and his whole body trembled slightly, and his eyes were sluggish caused by fear and despair.

"Folks, our People's Party just wants to uphold justice for everyone. Never wronged a good person, and never let a bad person go. According to the law of the base area, we pronounced a verdict that Liu Yixuan was sentenced to death in accordance with the law for murdering villager Wang Deshui. Liu Yixuan raped Wang Deshui's wife and was sentenced to 7 years in prison in accordance with the law. Liu Yixuan was sentenced to death for several crimes, and he was executed immediately after the public trial! ”

"Good!" "Good judgment!" "Liu Yixuan should be killed!" "Kill him now!" The agitated crowd immediately responded with a thunderous roar.

"Folks, now that the judicial power of Fengtai County is in the hands of the People's Party, everyone must believe that we will enforce the law impartially. The execution of Liu Yixuan will be carried out publicly after this public trial, and we will definitely not let these criminals go. Next, we interrogated Zhang Youliang. How can everyone be bullied by Zhang Youliang on weekdays, everyone can come up to redress their grievances. Don't be afraid, now Fengtai County has our People's Party to uphold justice for everyone, our children are all soldiers in the insurance group, the insurance group is our people's team, whoever dares to bully our people, the People's Party and the insurance group will uphold justice for our people. ”

"Good!" The crowd couldn't help but applaud. Finally, they have their own armed forces to support the people, and the people only feel confident in their chests.

When the court's bailiffs dragged Liu Yixuan, who was like a dead pig, down, there were already people rushing to come to the stage to redress their grievances. "Line up, line up, don't crowd, everyone has a chance to redress their grievances." Xu Dian hurriedly shouted.

Zhang Youliang is different from Hu Xingzhi, he relies on armed forces to run rampant in the countryside. Therefore, Zhang Youliang not only does not do the slightest "good thing" for the people, but all kinds of blackmail things emerge one after another.

In addition to collecting rent, usury, robbing men and women to buy and sell people, one by one, the people remember it clearly. But I have to admit one thing, Zhang Youliang is also a hard bone. When the people were angry and scolded, Zhang Youliang stubbornly scolded back.

The people scolded him for collecting rent, and Zhang Youliang scolded the people for being lazy. The people scolded him for usury, and Zhang Youliang replied that the people were all poor ghosts, and they had to borrow money to spend if they had no money. The people scolded him for killing people, and Zhang Youliang scolded the people for not knowing the current affairs. From time to time, the people who redressed their grievances rushed up to beat Zhang Youliang in anger, his mouth was broken, his face was bruised, one eye was beaten high and swollen, and it was difficult to even open it, but Zhang Youliang just didn't cry out for pain, and didn't beg for mercy, and he went toe-to-toe with the people.

"You are rebelling, and when the government army comes to suppress the bandits, you rebels will be beheaded one by one." Zhang Youliang even kept cursing at the people.

"Comrade Xu Dian, are we going to shut up Zhang Youliang's mouth?" The comrade in charge of maintaining order asked angrily. The people had never seen such a fierce person, and they had all arrived at this step of the field, and they had not made any soft offences. Some of the people were even frightened by Zhang Youliang, and the scolding below was much quieter.

"Let him scold and gag him like we're afraid of him." Although he said this, Xu Dian was really a little stunned in his heart.

Zhang Youliang committed a lot of crimes, and it took more than three hours for those who redressed their grievances to speak out, and only then did they barely finish appealing to the murder case and the crime of taking away the ancestral land by Zhang Youliang by borrowing usury. Zhang Youliang is also old after all, and after scolding back for so long, his mouth is also dry, except for trying to straighten his body, he also keeps his mouth shut.

"Comrade Xiong Mingyang, I'm going to work hard for you soon." Xu Dian said.

Xiong Mingyang has been in charge of the fence, and he only rushed back from outside a few days ago, and he carefully wiped the big knife with a cloth while saying: "Don't worry, when I cut off this old dog's head, I will definitely not be soft." "The last time I met someone who dared to scold like this, it was a young lady of a landlord's family when I attacked Weizi. As for what the name is, Xiong Mingyang has long forgotten that the hostility and hatred of the bully landlords towards the people cannot be resolved at all. A young lady of the landlord's family whose hands have never been stained with blood would rather be killed than surrender, and Xiong Mingyang has no sympathy for this kind of person at all. The more fierce Zhang Youliang scolded, the calmer Xiong Mingyang's heart was.

Xu Dian went to announce the verdict, Xiong Mingyang didn't even look at it, he danced a few knife flowers with the big knife in his hand, and adjusted the feeling at hand. But after hearing Xu Dian read out a series of charges against Zhang Youliang, he announced Zhang Youliang's death sentence more than a dozen times, "Zhang Youliang, death penalty, execute immediately." As soon as the words fell, in the roar of the crowd, Xiong Mingyang raised his head and strode onto the judgment platform.

Seeing Xiong Mingyang carrying a big knife and walking steadily towards Zhang Youliang step by step, the voice of the masses weakened in an instant. Xiong Mingyang didn't notice this at all, his heart was empty, and in his eyes, only Zhang Youliang's dry neck remained. Already the bailiffs had already pushed Zhang Youliang down and made the old landlord kneel on the ground. Xiong Mingyang waved his hand and motioned for the bailiff to get out of the way. At the moment when Zhang Youliang tried to stand up, Xiong Mingyang's big knife thundered. Zhang Youliang's neck was neatly cut off, and he flew into the air and flew off the stage.

"Zhang Youliang, you old dog also has today!" With a cry, someone had already rushed to Zhang Youliang's head with a flat stick or something, and began to hammer hard. Xiong Mingyang didn't care so much, he motioned for someone to drag Liu Yixuan up. At this time, Liu Yixuan had completely collapsed. There is a wooden pier on the public trial table, and Liu Yixuan kneels in front of the wooden pier, and his upper body rests on the wooden pier. Xiong Mingyang looked at Liu Yixuan with disdain, and his hand fell with a knife, cutting off Liu Yixuan's neck like chopping vegetables.

Where have the people seen such a clean and neat killing method, the audience was silent at first, and then the cheers of the whole day rang out.

A foul smell came into Xiong Mingyang's nasal cavity, and he turned his head to look, but saw that there was already a landlord trembling in fright, and feces and urine flowed down the crotch of his pants. "You already knew that you had today, what evil did you do before?" Xiong Mingyang shouted loudly to the landlords.

The public trial meeting went very smoothly, and the three-day public trial basically paid off the blood debts owed by the landlords to the people. There are only women and children left in Zhang Youliang's family, and there are not many left in the Zhang family. The other landlords didn't have so much blood debt, but just killed the criminals. Then the People's Party divided the floating wealth of the Zhang family and the landlords, and repaid what should have been returned to the people, especially the families of the victims. These are all done publicly. On the public trial platform, the families of the victims knelt on the ground and wept bitterly with the money for compensation.

The new government immediately announced that usury would not be allowed in Fengtai County, and the annual interest rate on private loans would not exceed 15 percent.

After the public trial meeting, the image of the People's Party as a blue sky was thoroughly established. Dare to ask those once majestic landlords to repay blood debts, this is something that has never happened in Fengtai County. The propaganda organs in the base areas have also gone all out to mobilize, the People's Party is the party of the people, and the insurance regiment is the people's soldiers, and if the people have any grievances or disputes, they will go to the courts led by Comrade Xu Dian of the People's Party.

The division of the land then proceeded smoothly.

After the trial, Hu Xingzhi's two sons were released home. Hu Xingzhi no longer dared to mention anything about "people's representatives." Liu Yixuan was still the people's representative who Chen Ke personally agreed, and he said that he would cut it. Although Liu Yixuan himself is to blame, Chen Ke's words are completely unbelievable, and this idea is also deep-rooted. Hu Xingzhi only hopes that he can escape this time quietly, and then have the opportunity to leave Fengtai County, the land of right and wrong, and never come back. Although the land is important, even the life is gone, what is the use of this land?

Hearing that Ren Qiying came to visit, Hu Xingzhi was trembling in his heart. It seems that Chen Ke will not let go of himself.

What do you think in your heart, you have to get by on face, Hu Xingzhi invited Ren Qiying in, and after the guests and hosts sat down, Ren Qiying said straight to the point: "Uncle Hu, I came this time to talk about the division of land." The base land should be divided into three acres of land per person in accordance with regulations. According to the hope of the field, the model of the production team is implemented, that is, according to the voluntary way, everyone forms a production team, cultivates and harvests together. ”

Hu Xingzhi didn't think about it, he said depressedly: "This matter is up to you, Miss Ren." I'm too old to do that. Whatever you young people say, I'll just do it. ”

"Uncle Hu, do you think that at this time, you can stay out of the situation if you want to?" Ren Qiying asked, "Before I came, Chairman Chen Ke specially explained to me that since the matter of your people's representative has been decided, it must be fulfilled." ”

Hearing this, Hu Xingzhi simply told the truth, "Miss Ren, don't you think it's too much of a deception?" ”

"Uncle Hu, wouldn't it be a pity that you took out so many things, if you didn't see the benefits? Our People's Party is now going to set an example of getting rich, Uncle Hu, you are also a capable person, why don't you do it well at this great time? ”

"The right time? I'm a good bird, won't I be liquidated in the future? That's a good thing, I don't think about it anymore. I just want to be able to live honestly. ”

"Uncle Hu, I won't hide it from you, the insurance regiment has already sent troops to attack Fengyang Mansion. If you want to wait, you can also wait and see, if we can't beat Fengyang Mansion, then naturally there is no need to say. If you beat Fengyang Mansion, what were you afraid of at that time? ”

"Even if Fengyang Mansion is defeated, what about Anqing Mansion?" Hu Xingzhi asked.

"After defeating Fengyang Mansion, we naturally want to fight Anqing Mansion next. Or Uncle Hu, you wait until the news of Anqing Mansion comes out? Ren Qiying said with a smile.

Hu Xingzhi looked at Ren Qiying in astonishment, "Miss Ren, what is your official position in this People's Party?" How do you know so much news? ”

"It doesn't matter what position I am. We, the People's Party, are not just carrying out revolution in Fengtai County, but the purpose of the revolution is to liberate the whole of China. Chairman Chen Ke asked me to take the words, if you refuse to join or force you, when we conquer Anqing Mansion, you can come and go freely. We're not going to hold you back. But girl, I think so, you ran out of Anhui, and you are not familiar with the people in other provinces, why bother? When we liberate the whole of China, will you still go to foreign countries? ”

Hearing this, Hu Xingzhi's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say.
