Chapter 1701 entering the temple

PS: Thanks to book friend A Hao for his reward.

"Master, find a few ladders from the bottom of the mountain." The captain of the peasant soldiers came to Chen Guang.

Chen Guang looked behind him.

Several peasant soldiers came over carrying ladders behind the other party.

Naturally, these ladders cannot be made by peasants who have cut down trees. One is that they have no time and the other is that they have no tools. These ladders can only be borrowed from farmers at the foot of the mountain.

"Press the ladder by the wall and let the musketman go up to the wall." Chen Guang ordered the captain of the peasant soldiers.

The courtyard walls of Bujie Temple are taller than those of ordinary farmers, and they are all made of blue bricks. They are very strong and taller than those of ordinary wealthy families. The courtyard walls of officials who can only live in Yanqing Prefecture can barely be compared with the courtyard walls of Bujie Temple.

The peasant soldiers carried a ladder to the edge of the courtyard wall. The front end of the ladder was on the courtyard wall, and the length of the forearm was just the same as the height of the courtyard wall.

Two of the three ladders are topped on the courtyard wall to the left of the temple gate, and the other ladder is topped on the right of the temple gate.

"Milt gunner, go." The captain of the peasant soldiers shouted at several peasant soldiers holding muskets.

Six musketeers among the peasant soldiers ran towards three ladders respectively.

Six peasant soldiers, two or two ladders.

A musketman was climbing a ladder with a musket in one hand, while the remaining musketman was holding a ladder for the other party.

When the musketman climbing the ladder was about to poke out of the courtyard wall, he began to recharge gunpowder and lead on the musket in his hand and lit the fuse on it.

Although the three ladders are arranged separately, they are not far apart.

The three musketeers standing on the ladder made gestures to each other, and then the three suddenly stood up, causing their bodies above their chest to poke out of the courtyard wall, and the musketeers were also raised and aimed at the courtyard wall.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three muskets were fired almost at the same time, and screams came from the yard.

Chen Guang looked at the temple gate of Bujie Temple with a blank expression.

If there is no reason for a temple like Bujie Temple, it is difficult for him to attack it. Now the monk from Bujie Temple gives him an excuse to attack Bujie Temple, so how could he let Bujie Temple go because of a few words of surrender to the abbot of Bujie Temple?

As long as the monk from Bujie Temple insists on not opening the temple gate and surrendering, he does not mind slaughtering Bujie Temple.

After three musketeers standing on the ladder fired the musket, they hid their bodies back behind the courtyard wall and reloaded the musket in their hands again.

After loading the medicine, my body poked out from behind the courtyard wall again, and pointed it into the courtyard and fired the gun again.

The monks who were shot in the temple were in a mess and could not stop the monk behind the temple from running around for life.

The musketeer who had fired the gun did not hide his body back on the ladder this time, but instead rode on the courtyard wall and greeted his companions below to come up.

When the musketeer under the ladder climbed up the courtyard wall, the person riding on the courtyard wall had already loaded the musketeer in his hand.

Two musketeers riding on the courtyard wall were lifted up and placed inside the courtyard wall. One of the musketeers stepped on the ladder and entered the temple.

The monk who was originally hiding behind the temple gate ran away now, leaving only two corpses and a few people who were not killed in the gun. No one stopped a few musketeers from climbing over the wall.

Bang!

A wooden stick fell to the ground from behind the temple gate, and then the temple gate was opened from the inside.

"The rural soldiers entered the temple to arrest people. When they encountered resistance, they would be killed on the spot." Chen Guang ordered the rural soldiers to enter the temple.

He had no resistance to killing the monks in the temple. When he was on the grassland, he was a horse bandit. Later, when he was fighting with the Northern Lu, he broke two fingers and withdrew from the Iron Armored Cavalry Battalion and entered the martial arts lecture hall to study.

He only came from the grassland to Yanqing Prefecture and became the mayor of the town.

The peasant soldiers entered Bujie Temple through the temple gate.

It was divided into three teams, each team was equipped with two musketeers, and began to search the temples and courtyards of Bujie Temple one by one.

Chen Guang walked behind the peasant soldiers with a few police officers and a grain tax officer.

Half an hour later, monks were captured outside the Main Hall. Chen Guang stood in front of the threshold of the Main Hall, and the only tiger squatting cannon was aimed at the many monks outside the hall.

"Senior Brother Chen, I have agreed to pay the grain tax, why do you have to make trouble?" The fat monk was also among the crowd. At this time, he was no longer as calm as before, and the monk's robe was stained with a lot of soil.

Chen Guang looked at the other party coldly and said, "I have given you a chance before, but unfortunately, you don't cherish the great monk. Now that I have taken action, it constitutes a de facto tax resistance. Wouldn't it be too late to pay the grain tax?"

"Bujie Temple is willing to compensate Mayor Chen." The fat monk said anxiously.

Previously, he thought that a town mayor was just an assistant, and even an official was not considered an official. In the past, those who made friends with Bujie Temple were all high-ranking officials and nobles, and local magistrates would be polite when they saw him.

He naturally didn't take a town mayor who was not even a magistrate, so he wanted to fight for Bujie Temple and exempt Bujie Temple from paying taxes.

If he had known that a mayor was so fierce, he would not have resisted anything he said.

Chen Guang said indifferently: "It's too late. The outcome of Bujie Temple was decided at the moment when your great monk decided to resist taxes."

The fat monk couldn't help but tremble after hearing this.

He felt a little murderous intent from the other party's tone, but he couldn't think of any reason the other party had to kill him.

Although he did order the monk to take action against him, the one who suffered the loss was Bujie Temple, and the monks who died were all from Bujie Temple, and the people brought by the other party did not suffer any loss.

"Master, I found some women." The captain of the peasant soldiers came to Chen Guang and stared at the fat monk in the crowd with a fierce look.

The fat monk standing in the crowd suddenly changed his face.

Chen Guang said: "Take me there."

The peasant captain walked in front and led the way.

Chen Guang, who had taken a few steps, turned around and explained to the peasant soldiers who were watching the fat monks and others: "I am optimistic about these monks. If there is any abnormal movement, I will allow you to kill them on the spot."

After saying that, he quickly left.

The captain of the peasant soldiers took Chen Guang to a cross-yard of Bujie Temple.

"This is where the monks live, and the women are in the yard adjacent to the monks live." The captain of the peasant soldiers explained to Chen Guang.

The two of them walked through the yard one by one and the other one behind and came to the next yard.

Two peasant soldiers stood in front of the courtyard gate.

The yard is not big, and there are three large tiled houses opposite the yard.

As soon as he entered the main room, Chen Guang was stunned, and his eyes soon showed a cold look.

"As soon as the peasant soldiers searched for this yard, they found them." The peasant soldiers captain said in a gloomy tone, with a hint of murderous intent.

On the earthen kang in the house, more than a dozen women without inches of strands were squeezed together, and only a quilt was used to cover it.
