Chapter 136: Robbery of the Law Field (2)

With his serpent-like eyes, he scanned the faces of the people on the left and right sides of the street, trying to spot something unusual, and despite an ambush in the middle of the road, he could not guarantee that no one would come to the rescue of the revolutionaries.

None of the people who had seen it with his eyes dared to look at him, and before his eyes swept over, the people lowered their heads or involuntarily turned their gaze away.

Under the circumstance that the Qing army was so well guarded and used so many Qing soldiers to stand guard, no one dared to come out to block the way forward of the escort team of the Enahai, and the Enahai took the escort team and the prisoners into the entrance of the vegetable market.

Originally, there were only more than 70 people who were going to be beheaded, but in the ambush on the way, the Qing army captured more than 40 people, but more than a dozen prisoners were seriously wounded, and it was inconvenient to take them, and Enahai had already ordered all the more than a dozen seriously injured prisoners to be killed, and 30 lightly wounded and 6 uninjured prisoners were escorted over together.

After entering the vegetable market, Enahai dismounted next to the guillotine, and immediately a Qing soldier came to take away the horses, and Enahai walked up to the guillotine with a waist knife and came directly to the stand seat.

Seeing this, Li Xiumei, the magistrate of the county, and a cadre of county government officials immediately got up and walked out to salute Enahai: "Xiaguan Shanghai, acting magistrate Li Xiumei and others see Lord E!" ”

Enahai raised his hand expressionlessly and said: "Li Zhixian, all the adults are exempt from courtesy, let you come here today just to let you see how rampant the revolutionary party is, and see the results of this official in arresting the revolutionary party in the past few days. You should also share your worries for my Qing Dynasty, the emperor and the queen mother."

All the officials claimed in unison: "Yes, thank you for the reminder!" ”

"Lord E, please take a seat!"

Enahai sat down next to the lord's seat with the kindness of the officials. But there was no one sitting in the main seat in the middle, and all the officials knew it very well. This position is reserved for Daotai Cai Naihuang.

The seats where the officials sat were set up in pergolas, and at this time, it was about half an hour before noon, and the sun did not shine on the seats, and the officials chatted about the execution of the revolutionary party while drinking tea.

In fact, according to the law of the Qing court, the execution of the prisoner should be sent to the criminal department after the judgment of the presiding judge, and the criminal department will check that it is correct and approve it and then ask for beheading, but it is only spring now, and it completely violates the provisions of the Qing Dynasty law and related systems, but the Qing Dynasty has reached this point, and many of them are not completely in accordance with the rules. For example, Qiu Jin, a woman from Jianhu, was arrested in Datong School on the afternoon of July 14, 1907, and the Qing court executed her in the early morning of the 15th, with only a dozen hours in between, and the speed of action was extremely rare. The Qing court did not give the revolutionaries time to rescue them at all.

The sun was gradually rising, and it was about to be noon, when a team of people and horses escorted a sedan chair over, and the pomp was much larger than that of Li Xiumei, the magistrate. However, seeing this pompous vegetable market, everyone knew that this was the Taoist Lord Cai Naihuang who came.

At this time, all the prisoners were guillotined, divided into a dozen rows and knelt in rows, ten people in a row. Some revolutionaries would rather die than kneel, but the Qing soldiers smashed the kneecaps of these revolutionaries who refused to kneel one by one. The ruthlessness of the means is really embarrassing.

It's all come to this, all the arrested revolutionaries. Including the dozen or so innocent people knew that there was no hope of escape, although some people straightened their waists and were ready to die calmly, but there were still a large number of people who were so frightened that they were paralyzed on the guillotine, and it was normal for people to be afraid of death, and no one laughed at them among the thousands of people who were watching.

When Cai Naihuang walked into the official audience, Enahai and all the other officials came out to salute, after all, he was the highest-ranking official here, and even Enahai's grade was lower than him.

The officials stood up and shouted, "See Lord Daotai!" ”

Cai Naihuang showed a smile on his face, raised his hand and said, "Everyone, no courtesy!" ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Li Xiumei, the magistrate of the county, said at this time: "My lord, please take a seat!" ”

Cai Naihuang sat in the middle of the main seat, the original supervisor was Enahai, but at this time, how can Enahai account for this kind of thing? His idea was to cut down these revolutionary and chaotic parties and call it a day early.

Cai Naihuang sat down and turned his head and asked Enahai: "Lord E, how long is it until noon?" ”

"A quarter of an hour to go!" Enahai took out his pocket watch and looked at it, got up and said, "My lord, I'm about to start the knife and behead him, go and confirm the offender?" ”

Cai Naihuang nodded, although Enahai was asking for his opinion, he knew that this was a procedure that had to be implemented, he was invited by Enahai to sit down, in fact, he was very indifferent to this matter, does he need to be present in person to kill some revolutionary parties? He felt that Enahai was to be seen by all the officials of Shanghai Province, the purpose was to remind these officials not to collude with the revolutionary party, not to have anything to do with the revolutionary party for a little money, in fact, he was extremely annoyed that Enahai mobilized the patrol battalion to arrest the revolutionary party without his consent, but when he thought that this person came from the capital, his origin was not small, so he endured this mouth, anyway, this guy could not stay here for a long time.

Now no one cares what Cai Naihuang is thinking, thousands of pairs of eyes in the entrance of the vegetable market are looking at Enahai who walked from the official seat to the front, Enahai took the list and verified all the prisoners, and then turned to look at the grocery store opposite.

Qin Dahai, who was in the grocery store opposite, walked to the door and raised his hand under Wang Yaqiao's control, and Enahai was relieved when he saw it, and he was completely relieved at this time.

After returning to the official's seat, Enahai gestured to one of the officials, and the official got up and walked to the front with a roll of silk cloth and read it aloud: "Check ?????? A total of 123 people formed a party to confuse the public and bewitch the good people, and endangered the country?????? Sentenced to immediate execution! ”

The officer read it and then retreated, and the executioners went in a row behind the first row of prisoners, each of whom was in charge of one prisoner, and if the first row of prisoners was finished, they would go behind the second row of prisoners until all the prisoners had been beheaded.

The executioners were making their final preparations, saying that the whip was wrapped around their necks so that they would not interfere with the swing of the sword, and each of them carried a bowl of wine, first took a sip and sprayed it on the guillotine, then drank all the wine that was left in the bowl, and pressed the prisoner's head down to expose the neck, so that they could cut it easily.

"Lord Cai, it's almost time, let's start?" Ena Hai looked at the pocket watch again, and after saying a word, he asked Cai Naihuang's consent to take out a stick from the lottery holder on the table and threw it on the guillotine.

When the executioners heard the order, they immediately raised their ghost head knives to cut down collectively, when suddenly a burst of gunfire rang out, "bang ??????", this burst of gunfire was like a firecracker, and after the gunfire stopped, I saw that the Qing soldiers standing in front of the guillotine and on the north and south sides collectively fell more than a dozen.

"Ahh

"Oh my God, someone has robbed the Dharma Field!"

The whole vegetable market was in chaos in an instant, and thousands of people who watched were frightened and panicked, and they were bumping everywhere, because there were too many people here, it was almost a sea of people, and the people near the guillotine couldn't squeeze out if they wanted to. The people on the periphery desperately rushed to the north and south directions of the vegetable market, they just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible, this kind of place is a gunshot, and if you are not careful, you will be hit by a stray bullet, that is bad luck.

The whole vegetable market was in chaos, the order was all out of order, many of the Qing soldiers who originally maintained order were overwhelmed by the common people, and countless people were pushed to the ground and trampled on the death unknown.

"Protect your lordship, protect your lordship! Everyone moved closer to this side, and looked at all the prisoners, and don't let them escape, and those who escaped will be killed," one of the squad officers shouted and ordered everyone to assemble towards the guillotine.

Except for the officials in the official seat, everyone was frightened by the burst of gunshots, and one by one they squatted under the table, using the table to block the front to protect themselves.

It's not that Wang Yaqiao's brothers don't want to kill these officials first, in fact, because of the problem of sight and angle of fire, there are only two people in each shop, and these shops are in the north, south, and west directions, but there are more than a dozen rows of kneeling prisoners on the guillotine, in addition to the prisoners, there are executioners and Qing soldiers, these people are in the way of their sight to shoot at those officials.

Although Enahai also hid under the table, he pulled out his pistol and showed his head to observe where the enemy was, after the burst of gunfire just now, because there were too many people at the scene, and the current bullets were all smokeless gunpowder, he really didn't see clearly where the bullets were sent and killed more than a dozen of his soldiers.

"Bang Bang Bang ??????" Another volley of gunfire rang out, and more than a dozen Qing troops fell around Duantoutai.

At this time, a voice suddenly shouted: "All the revolutionary party brothers on the stage lie down, lie down!" ”

Hearing this voice, all the prisoners chose to believe it, and immediately lay on the ground, they thought that this time they were really dead, but they didn't expect that until now, those brothers of the Alliance are still trying to rescue them, and it is in this heavily guarded environment.

After the second gunshot, he finally found out that the bullets were fired from several shops, and he found three, the three shops in the north, and he immediately shouted: "The revolutionary party who robbed the Dharma field is in the middle of the three shops in the south, all shoot at me, shoot there!" ”

"Bang Bang Bang ??????" The Qing soldiers opened fire one after another at the three shops in the Erna Sea Finger, but because there were still many civilians in the middle, they could not rush over, so they could only keep shooting at the same place, in which two innocent people were hit by stray bullets and fell to the ground and died.
