5-7 Shuanggui. Civil uprising

In the city of Suzhou, a small news spread quickly, saying that it was Cao Yin, father and son of Jiangnan weaving, who were taken down on the spot because of the collision with the Qincha, and the craftsmen who had been cut by the Weaving Department for many years could hardly believe their ears, but when they walked to the door of their respective weaving factories and saw the notice covered with a big red seal, the hanging heart was put down, and the Cao family, which had been hanging over their heads like a dark cloud for decades, finally fell.

The dignitaries and dignitaries of Suzhou Mansion also received this shocking news in the shortest possible time, who is Cao Yin, who is also the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, the hereditary marquis, the soul of Jiangnan Weaving, the backbone of Suzhou's high society, I didn't expect it to be taken so casually.

What kind of thing is that Qincha, it's just a martial artist, relying on the merits of the dragon, he doesn't take the Jiangnan gentry in his eyes, and he says that he will take it, and there is no royal law, and there is no heavenly reason?

The Suzhou Mansion immediately moved, and the officials went to Daguan Yuan to investigate the case, and the gentry jointly signed a guarantee, hoping to redeem the people first, and there was also a group of forces that were secretly entangled, trying to put pressure on Lord Qincha, so that he understood that the gentry in Jiangnan were a united whole, and it was not so easy to bully them at will.

Jia Yucun led a group of officials from Suzhou Mansion to find Liu Ziguang and asked euphemistically why he wanted to arrest the father and son of the Cao family, Liu Ziguang said with a shocked face: "Why did the Jia Governor say this, this official did not arrest Lord Cao, but because it involved some money and silver problems of the Weaving Department, so I ask the two of them to explain things clearly in the specified place and within the specified time, and so far their black yarn is still wearing on their heads, please relax." "Jia Yucun's nose is crooked, what's the matter?

Isn't it house arrest to confess the problem at a specified place and at a specified time? This Lord Qincha acted recklessly, and some officials of this level like Cao Yin, even if he held the sword of Shang Fang, he could not dispose of it at will, and he could only be disposed of after the impeachment of the cabinet by the imperial history, and the sword of Shang Fang in this year could not be disposed of after the cabinet was played to the emperor, in fact, it was not as good as the text said, and he could behead whoever he wanted, at most, it was just a ceremonial tool on behalf of the imperial power, but this Liu Ziguang, who was not familiar with the routine of officialdom, was stunned and took the sword of Shang Fang seriously, Jia Yucun was the newly appointed prefect of Suzhou, and it all depended on the arrangement of the Cao family, he always wanted to find an opportunity to repay the Cao family, how could he stand by and watch at the moment, he tried to say that Lord Qincha was normal's judicial procedures to deal with this matter, but Liu Ziguang just didn't accept it softly and hard, and ignored it no matter how they persuaded him.

Jia Yucun had no choice but to politely arch his hand to Liu Ziguang, and turned around and left with a group of officials.

Liu Ziguang didn't send each other off, and waited for them to go out before turning around and asking, "Did their father and son recruit them?" Behind him was the torture master of the South Factory, and when he heard the words of the adult, he hurriedly replied: "Back to the factory, the supervisor of the Cao family, the father and son are very arrogant, and they refuse to confess, and the adults have confessed that they are not allowed to be tortured, so there is no progress at present." Liu Ziguang groaned and said: "Put them in small rooms, seal the doors and windows to prevent light, and then use electric lights to shine on their faces for twelve hours, take turns to interrogate them, and don't let them sleep, I want to see if the Cao family is beaten with iron." "The so-called master of torture is only good at using all kinds of torture tools, such as meat punishment such as pouring chili peppers on a tiger chair, and whipping in salt water.

Jia Yu went to the village not long after the gate of the Daguan Garden gathered hundreds of craftsmen from the Weaving Bureau, and 66 continued, there are still people who continue to surround them, since Liu Ziguang and the Cao family turned their faces and arrested the Cao father and son, the Cao family slaves in the Daguan Garden have left, and the nearby patrolling Suzhou government officials have disappeared, leaving only one hundred and ten soldiers of the Red Shirt Regiment guarding the garden, seeing that the craftsmen are more and more encircled, and the black pressure of the crowd has been thousands, but at present, these people are still restrained and have not moved, the impact on the Grand View Garden, the Red Shirt Regiment soldiers have loaded their muskets, and the bayonets have been polished, as long as the group of people move to the Grand View Garden, they will shoot and suppress, these people are veterans of a hundred battles, and they faced thousands of people back thenTens of thousands of Tartar soldiers armed to the teeth have never been terrified, let alone these unarmed craftsmen.

At this moment, Liu Ziguang was standing on the second floor of the Grand View Building with a clairing mirror, watching the situation at the gate from afar, he looked at it for a while and asked, "Do you know these people?" ”

"Back to my lord, the leader was the foreman of the Weaving Department, and there were servants of the Cao family behind him, and some of the households were private weavers who relied on the Weaving Department to make money for their work, and the rest of the people didn't know each other, and it seemed that they were not good." It was the flower cannon that spoke, and he also held a clairvoyant mirror in his hand.

Liu Ziguang sneered, that group of people was arranged by the Cao family to put pressure on themselves, there is no doubt about it, looking at the hundreds of guys wearing craftsman clothes in the back, they are all full of flesh and fierce eyes, they must be local scoundrels, and they actually want to rely on these people to deal with the battle-hardened Zhen Wubo, it is too child's play.

"All right, go down and gather the real craftsmen. Do as I tell you to do what I tell you to do. After Liu Ziguang sent out the cannons, he called two guards and asked them to go to Suzhou Wei and Suzhou Mansion to seek support respectively.

After a while, the crowd outside the gate finally began to move, and as they approached the Grand View Garden, they rhythmically shouted the slogan: "Return me Lord Cao!" Give me back Lord Cao! When the team approached the gate, a white and chubby guy waved his fist and shouted: "Qincha has arrested our food and clothing, and our parents, Lord Cao, is cut off from our way of life, can we agree, workers?" ”

"Can't! No! The so-called workers raised their fists together and roared angrily, and then countless rotten eggs, rotten vegetables, and other garbage flew out from the back of the line, and in a moment, there was a mess in front of the gate of the Grand View Garden.

The soldiers of the Red Shirt Regiment were ready to rush out and fight, but the orders of the adults were delayed.

In this way, the crowd that had been making trouble for half an hour saw that there was no reaction in the garden, and threw sundries again, this time it was not rotten eggs, but lethal bricks and tiles, looking through the clairvoyant mirror, there seemed to be a faint flash of weapons in the crowd behind them, if these thousand mobs were allowed to rush in, it was inevitable that there would be a fierce battle, and the soldiers were dodging the attack of bricks and stones, and anxiously asked their respective squad leaders why they didn't fight back.

It is said that the officers and soldiers of Suzhou Wei went out to practice, only a dozen old soldiers stayed in the barracks, and there was no way to support the officials of Suzhou Prefecture, and it is said that now the entire Suzhou City is in chaos, and the striking weavers are making trouble everywhere, and the three classes and six rooms of the government are sent out to play and suppress, and there is no manpower to help Lord Qincha relieve the siege.

It seems that the entire Suzhou Mansion is going to have trouble with me, huh! No matter what you draw out, Lao Tzu will follow all of them, and these guys will not inquire about what Lord Qincha used to do, it is the spy leader of the South Factory, Zongma Jinan, the brave general who captured Dolgon, this kind of trick will only bring more trouble to the initiator.

It's just that at this time, it is inconvenient to use the Red Shirt Regiment to suppress it, although a hundred people are enough to subdue these mobs, but it is difficult to control human lives if it really fights, if dozens or hundreds of people are killed, this problem will be troublesome, and the imperial history and the cabinet will not let go of themselves, so they can only rely on the fireworks, their gang of craftsmen who have been tortured have gone out, and not letting the Red Shirt Regiment attack does not mean that they will endure it, and Liu Ziguang has let people put tear gas on the mob when the workers of the brigade have not arrived.

Tear gas is the latest scientific research achievement of the South Factory, simple and easy to use, easy to use, can be made with red-hot charcoal and urine, urine is packed in a wooden barrel, and then a piece of red-hot charcoal is thrown in, charcoal and urine react, releasing extremely foul-smelling gas, so that after a dozen simple tear gas bombs are thrown, the crowd is permeated, white urine vapor, pungent and spicy smell actually forced the crowd back for a moment, but this weapon has no hard lethality after all, and after the smoke clears, the mob gathered again.

Seeing that the thousands of mobs were excited, and they were about to start smashing the door at the instigation of a few leading brothers, at this time, more people rushed over in the distance, all of them were dressed in rags, with vegetables and vegetables, but their spirits were extremely excited, and they were all carrying kitchen knives, rolling pins, wooden sticks, rattans and the like, and they were the real craftsmen of the Weaving Bureau, and three or four thousand people were surging towards the Grand View Garden, chanting slogans: "Protect Lord Qincha!" Punish the corrupt official Cao Yin! The two groups of men and horses finally collided together, first verbally invective, and then began to scuffle, and finally the two sides pressed the whole line into a scuffle, at this time the side door of the Grand View Garden also opened, dozens of capable figures rushed out, they held iron rods wrapped in rubber, specifically to find those who had previously provoked trouble, a stick smashed down head-on, knocked people unconscious, and then caught in the garden, this is not a disciplined battle between the two armies, but between two groups of very poorly organized groups, there is no coordination of the fight, so the duration and intensity are much smaller than imagined, not a quarter of an hour, those mobs who demanded the release of Cao Yin scattered as birds and beasts。

Several of the main messengers were arrested into the garden, tortured, they all quickly confessed the crime, it turned out that these people were ordinary craftsmen sent by the Weaving Bureau, and did not listen to their orders, so they lured and coerced some households who relied on the Weaving Bureau to survive to come and make trouble.

Now it's good to send the evidence to the door, and if you dare to use such a bad trick to deal with Qincha, don't blame me for being unkind, Liu Ziguang immediately summoned people to arrest the other officials of the Suzhou Prefect and the Weaving Department back for tea.

Tell two small stories, when I was a child, I lived in a large courtyard, and the door of the house used the sewer, and the night incense was poured into it every day, and a pot of night incense had not flowed away, just when the briquette stove was replaced by briquettes, I suddenly wanted to put the replaced lack of briquettes into the sewer, and as a result, a rush of white smoke rose, and the smoke made me dizzy, it was too bad to smell, and since then I have wanted to identify a chemical weapon…… Another story is that a friend said that when he was a child, there was a classmate who was very bad, and in the winter there was a stove in the classroom, and the teacher asked each person to bring two briquettes to this person, and put two briquettes in the old urine of the hut toilet, soaked overnight, and dried for another day, and then brought to the school and mixed into the briquettes of other classmates, and then waited patiently, and finally one day it was his turn to add two briquettes...... The result can be imagined, absolute poison gas!

Or chronic gas.
