This year's New Year will undoubtedly be stored in everyone's memory. Bai Jiaxuan woke up at dawn and washed his hands and face, lit two red candles on the altar table, inserted five purple incense sticks, kowtowed three times, and then
He walked out of the street with a bundle of thunder cannons tucked under his arm and stood in the still dark alley. He dug out the gunpowder twister of the thunder gun, blew the fire paper in his hand with a pop and ignited the twister. The hemp paper was rolled with black gunpowder.
The twister squeaked and burst out strings of shining sparks. He flicked his arm, and the dark night sky above him let out a joyful explosion. He liked to fire cannons, and only thunder cannons. He stood in the gatehouse
In the street outside, he picked out the thick thunderbolts and threw them into the air. With the crisp sound one after another, the broken firecracker confetti floated down slowly in the cold night sky, covering his hat and shoulders.
.When he returned to the main hall of the upper house after firing off all the cannons, his son and daughter-in-law had already paid homage to their ancestors and kowtowed to the Bai Zhao family, just waiting to give him New Year blessings.
When the peaceful light of the New Year illuminated the outline of the roof, the family gathered around the large table to eat dumplings. A panicked tribesman came to him and reported the news that Hei Wa was smashing and digging in the ancestral hall. Bai Jiaxuan remained calm.
Busy eating dumplings, he actually ate a lot today. Contrary to most people, whenever something happened, he not only did not reduce his appetite, but also had a huge appetite. After he was full, even if he died, he would not starve to death. He put down his chopsticks and sat at the dining table.
He announced: "Xiaowen, think about what you need to do, and don't forget anything. Xiaowu, go and ask for the deacon at noon. Xiaoyi, go and pay New Year's greetings to your third uncle first." After finishing the instructions, Bai Jiaxuan
Then he walked into the horse house. The long-term worker Lu San went home three days before the Chinese New Year. He moved into the horse house every year after Lu San got off work and would never let his sons do the work for him. On the first day of the new year, he let
The whole family took a rest, but after he had worshiped his ancestors in the ancestral hall, he led the gongs and drums team to play a good time at the entrance of the ancestral hall. Now, after feeding the livestock, he threw down the grass-churning stick and walked into the cotton gin room, stepping on the cotton gin again.
Sing.
On the third day of the first lunar month, he was preparing to marry Xiaowu. His relatives and friends all advised him to wait until the current troubled times had passed. Even his in-law, Mr. Leng, also agreed with this intention, but he insisted that he would not change his original intention: "He is making trouble for him."
Revolution, let’s arrange our marriage, the two have nothing to do with each other. Didn’t the Kainong Association say that men are not allowed to marry wives?” He completely handed over the marriage of his second son Xiaowu to his eldest son Xiaowen, so that he could be familiar with many etiquette and etiquette in the marriage.
Some things to pay attention to, but he himself was just helping Xiaowen come up with ideas in important aspects. At this time, the third son Xiaoyi ran into the cotton gin room and said: "Dad, the third uncle is holding a spear and going to poke Heiwa. Third grandma taught me
I told you to go." Bai Jiaxuan was stunned after hearing this, put on his robe and hat again and walked out of the gin machine room.
He walked into the round door of Lu Santu's wall and saw Lu San holding a long-handled spear in his hand, the woman rolling on the ground hugging his legs, and Heiwa's younger brother Tuwa hugging Lu San's
On the other leg, Lu San was still beating angrily. Before Bai Jiaxuan could persuade him, he scolded Bai Jiaxuan: "If Lu Zilin doesn't stand up, you won't show your face. People are smashing ancestral halls and burning ancestral axes. You are pretending to be blind."
I'm not afraid of being guillotined. It's my fault for the sins committed by my ancestors in eight lifetimes. I stabbed that scoundrel..." Bai Jiaxuan said calmly: "You should put down your spear, smack your pipe, put your hands behind your back, and go to the door of the ancestral hall.
Go watch the fun at the bottom of the theater. There are more than a dozen gong and drum guys with dozens of muskets, and you can’t even spend money to invite people from Bailu Village. In case you don’t like to watch the fun..." Bai Jiaxuan said calmly and seriously, "I entrust you to
What you have to do... you should be reliable again." Lu San suddenly remembered that the sedan chair that carried Xiaowu's wife was rented by him. He saw Bai Jiaxuan pouting meaningfully, shaking his head, and threw it away.
Dropped the spear, squatted on the ground and sighed loudly...
The storm of the Farmers' Association has swept through Bailuyuan. Bailu Village has also established a Farmers' Association, with Hei Wa serving as the director, Bai Xing'er as the deputy director, and Tian Xiao'e as the women's director. The farmers' association organizations in each village imitated the practices of the headquarters when they were established.
A bright guillotine was placed on the stage, and there were two incidents of guillotining people. Lu Zhaopeng immediately asked Heiwa to convene a meeting with directors of various agricultural associations, stating that in the future no one would be arbitrarily guillotined, and guillotines were not allowed to be placed at the meeting again.
If someone needs to be punished, it must be discussed and approved by the headquarters. Each village peasant association can decide the target of the struggle and parade, but it must prevent the masses from killing people intentionally or accidentally. The leaders of the peasant association, who are inspired by the revolutionary enthusiasm, feel that they have lost their enthusiasm.
Son, howling and complaining that Lu Zhaopeng was too timid, too kind-hearted, and too soft-handed. There were so many rich men and evil gentry in the village, but only three or five were guillotined. How can the revolution be carried out thoroughly? Lu Zhaopeng shouted loudly
He warned: "Comrades, revolution is not a guillotine..." In the end, what encouraged Heiwa and the leaders of the Farmers' Association was that Zhaopeng finally listened to their calls and decided to focus on attacking Yuetian Fuxian, Bailucang Township, for the reason
Yes, the Agricultural Association requires that the accounts of the warehouse's annual imperial grain collection since the Republic of China be published to all villagers.
A new scene of street parades appeared in Bailu Town. Hejiafang, the first to establish a farmers' cooperative, took the lead in street parades. He Yaozu and his wife, the richest man in Hejiafang, were tied up with ropes and dragged to Bailu Town like a cow and a sheep.
After eight turns of the journey upstream, the farmers' cooperatives from each village scrambled to drag the rich and evil gentry of their villages to Bailu Town to parade them through the streets. The tricks were constantly updated, and paper pointed hats were placed on the heads of the victims.
, red and green shrouds were forced to be worn on their bodies, their faces were smeared with black ash from the bottom of the pot and dotted with white paste, and some were ingenious in pouring watery feces down on their heads. On March 69 market day, the town was unprecedentedly lively.
Crowded, people watched the pranks and ugliness of those who used to be the most respectable people in the original villages. The parade scene in Bailu Town subsequently became more common, and soon lost its audience. By the time the Agricultural Association Headquarters arrived,
When the news about You Doutian Fuxian came out, the enthusiasm and novelty that had just cooled down rose again. There is also a more exciting factor, that is, Lu Zilin from Bailu Village will be pushed onto the stage at the same time. The son of the Communist Party is fighting against Lao Tzu. Really
The other one is opening his eyes and not recognizing his relatives.
Pushing Tian Fuxian to the theater in Bailu Village was the highest peak in the development of the peasant movement in Bailuyuan. The venue of the meeting was still chosen in the theater in front of the ancestral hall in Bailu Village. Lu Zhaopeng personally presided over this extraordinary struggle meeting.
There are nine township contracts for the nine security stations under the jurisdiction of Bailucang. It has been found that since Tian Fuxian took office as the chief township committee of Bencang, he has quietly increased the number of imperial grain collections for almost a year. There are no contracts for the nine townships.
One exception participated in the division of the spoils. Heiwa announced year by year the proportion of their increase and the number of overharvest of grain, and announced one by one the amount of grain shared by Tian Fuxian and the nine townships. The terrible silence in the audience suddenly turned into a violent storm.
Lu Zhaopeng stood in front of the stage with the same call: "Bring up the guillotine." He shouted hoarsely but could not stop the boiling commotion. He had no choice but to pull out a short gun from his waist and fired a shot into the air.
After being able to calm down, he seized the opportunity and announced that he would let witnesses make revelations.
The person who testified and exposed was Jin Shushou from Bailucang. All the details of Tian Fuxian's increased grain collection were recorded in his detailed account. Before Heiwa and his brothers went to settle accounts with Tian Fuxian, they first called Jin Shushou to the Agricultural Association headquarters.
, and at the same time he carried a guillotine to the steps outside the door. When Jin Shushou saw the guillotine stained with the blood of the bowler, his face suddenly lost color: "Good Heiwa, good Master Lu Zhaoqian, listen to me.
...What are you asking? I'll tell you the truth... Take the guillotine away quickly, I saw that... I was so confused that I couldn't speak." Hei Wa asked someone to take the guillotine away. Jin Shushou's expression stabilized as expected.
Instead, he said cheerfully: "Oh, you asked me about the mischief that Mr. Tian made during the grain levy, and I said that's it. I can't remember it. It was just last year, and I still haven't forgotten it. I am the original resident of this warehouse.
The land, time and place are conducive to the people and the six-level system has a total of 1,112 hectares and 50 acres. The amount of summer and autumn grains is 3,081 stones, 1 bucket, 5 liters, 7 in 6 spoons. Each stone is worth 1 tael of silver, 3 qian, 1 cent, 8 centimeters, 3 milliliters, 5 silks, 8 husks and 9 microns.
6 fibers, 2 dusts and 5 tiny particles, a total of levied silver..." Hei Wa was already impatient: "Don't be verbose, just talk about how much food and silver dollars you got through your tricks." Jin Shushou said: "I'm talking about the old accounts from the past few years.
I can't remember exactly, but I just remember that last year, the extra tax on grain was more than 1,200 taels. The original amount of the warehouse was 21,297 ding, and the levy was 1,211 taels, 4 cents, 1 centimeter and 2 cents. The extra levy was more than 200 taels. The above two items of land were levied.
The extra levy was over 1,400 taels. Each of the nine townships divided the spoils about 100 taels. I took 100 taels myself. The rest of Tianzong Township was about to be taken to myself." Heiwa and his brothers followed Jin Shushou to Bailucang in person, and took the spoils.
He carried all the account books locked in the drawer to the headquarters of the Agricultural Association, and settled them one by one year by year. In the end, it was discovered that the total amount of stolen goods embezzled by Mr. Tian and his nine security offices was astonishing.
When Zhaopeng got the news of this major breakthrough, he was so excited that he punched Heiwa on the shoulder and said: "Heiwa, you are amazing. Now there is really going to be a storm in Bailuyuan."
…………
Jin Shu held a list in his hand and read it, his legs and hands were trembling. Tian Fuxian and nine ministers lowered their heads and let him expose one by one... Monk Shaobang was only a woman who had bullied the tenants, and Wan Ke also
Only a few villages at the base of the Nanyuan Mountains are resorting to violence, but Tian Fuxian and his nine villagers are facing the entire villagers on the plains. More than 20,000 men and women in Bailuyuan have now become their enemies. Jin
Before the calligrapher had finished reading, there was another commotion in the audience. Lu Zhaopeng immediately ordered the pickets to take them to the headquarters of the Agricultural Association of the ancestral hall and keep them under guard. In order to prevent the angry villagers from beating them to death, the originally planned public parade was therefore not allowed.
Cancellation. Lu Zhaopeng announced loudly: "Bring Tian Fuxian and other eleven people to Zishui County Court for trial." The angry villagers immediately expressed their dissatisfaction with such a decision and poured in from the theater downstairs to the door of the ancestral hall.
He surrounded the ancestral hall, shouting and shouting that he wanted to snatch Tian Fuxian out and guillotine him in public. Hei Wa also lost control: "Comrade Zhaopeng, look at what you are going to do now. I told you not to guillotine Tian Fuxian. The people are angry, guillotine him."
There is something wrong with this idiot." Lu Zhaopeng also got angry and cursed: "Hei Wa, you bastard, I have repeatedly said that Tian Fuxian is neither an old monk nor a bowler. You can't guillotine this. This is a major matter involving the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. You order it immediately.
The leaders of each village's agricultural association withdrew members."
Tian Fuxian went to Zishui County after hearing the news about the "Farmers' Association" audit. He first went to Secretary Yue and then to County Magistrate Hu. When he met them, his first words were: "I will cooperate with Lu Zhaopeng to make revolution."
Sincerely, I didn’t expect that Lu Zhaopeng was cheating on me behind my back. How can I be the secretary of the district branch of the main township?" After saying this, he burst into tears... Yue Weishan and County Magistrate Hu agreed to summon Lu Zhaopeng.
When Lu Zhaopeng walked into Yue Weishan's office, he still couldn't figure out the cause of the matter. He sat on the chair in confusion and carelessness. Yue Weishan asked straight to the point: "Comrade Zhaopeng, why did you target the revolutionary comrades?" County Magistrate Hu
Then he said: "The entire administrative structure of Bailuyuan has been paralyzed." Lu Zhaopeng said without hesitation: "There is conclusive evidence that Tian Fuxian is not a revolutionary comrade, but a corrupt official. This vampire not only ruined the reputation of the National Revolution, but also ruined the Kuomintang.
Now that the words have been explained, I request you to immediately send a clean district branch secretary and general township appointment to Bailuyuan." Yue Weishan avoided the topic and said: "I also want to tell you something, the county continues to receive
A lawsuit was filed in Bailuyuan Township, accusing the heads of the Agricultural Cooperative Association of killing customers and raping their daughter-in-law. It is said that the heads of the Agricultural Cooperative Association are all deadbeats from various villages. How can these people do this?
Promoting the national revolution in the countryside is not about chaos. Your party should also consider it when looking for the leader of the agricultural association." Lu Zhaopeng was unconvinced and said: "The deputy director of the agricultural association who slept with the daughter-in-law of the bowl guest has been dismissed. Tian Fuxian
At the beginning, he said that the leaders of the Agricultural Associations are all deadbeats. The Qing government criticized Mr. Sun Yat-sen for being deadbeats." Yue Weishan stopped him and said: "How can you make such random analogies and slander the founding father?" Lu Zhaopeng insisted: "
The same principle applies. Corrupt rulers call those who oppose them as rebellious ministers, rebels, and traitors." County Magistrate Hu turned to specific matters: "Comrade Zhaopeng, you must ensure Tian Fuxian's life safety.
The Agricultural Association is not allowed to kill people casually, and those who have committed serious crimes must be brought to the county court for trial." Lu Zhaopeng said: "I am responsible for handing Tian Fuxian into your hands."
After dark, Lu Zhaopeng sent pickets from the Agricultural Association to escort Tian Fuxian to the county. Then he sat down with Hei Wa to discuss the next step - allocating land and forming farmers' armed forces. Hei Wa was in a depressed mood because he did not kill Tian Fuxian.
He raised his voice again: "Brother Zhaopeng, if our farmers' cooperative confiscates the land and floating wealth of the wealthy gentry and distributes it to the poor, then we will completely defeat them."
As soon as this work was launched, they got involved in Tian Fuxian's case. Tian Fuxian stayed in the court for half a month and then swaggered back to Bailuyuan. He was reinstated and stationed in Bailucang. Heiwa led three people from the Agricultural Association headquarters
The revolutionary brothers rushed to the county court to inquire, but the judge said: "There is no solid evidence." Lu Zhaopeng went to County Magistrate Hu's office in person: "Why did you let Tian Fuxian go?" Magistrate Hu said humorously: "Jin Shushou
All the confessions were retracted. It seems that the confessions forced by the guillotine are unreliable." Lu Zhaopeng immediately went to Yue Weishan: "I am not much concerned about Tian Fuxian's affairs now, but I am worried about the national revolution." Yue Weishan said rudely: "Comrade Zhaopeng,
You are a member of the Communist Party and the Kuomintang, and you have the important responsibilities of both parties. Your preference for discriminating against the other is too blatant. You have defeated all the grassroots cadres of the party. The national revolution can only be carried out by your party alone.
Done." Lu Zhaopeng also said bluntly: "Please don't be too sensitive. If a bad element like Tian Fuxian sneaks into the Communist Party, we will automatically hand him over to the court."
When Lu Zhaopeng returned to Bailuyuan, Heiwa said: "I said you were beaten to death, but you have to hand it over to the court. After trial and trial, Tian Fuxian was not found guilty. Instead, he was framed by the Agricultural Association." Lu Zhaopeng
Peng and Heiwa reported to the preparatory office of the Provincial Farmers Association together, and then went to the provincial government together. After Chairman Yu listened to the situation, he still said the same old saying: "Whoever blocks the revolution will be trampled down." Lu Zhaopeng and Heiwa returned to Bailuyuan.
, reliable news soon came that Magistrate Hu of Zishui County had been dismissed by the provincial government, and Yue Weishan, the party secretary of Zishui County of the Kuomintang, had also been transferred. When Heiwa and his revolutionary brothers went to Bailucang again to arrest Tian Fuxian, Tian Fuxian had already
After hearing the news, he ran away, and Jin Shushou also disappeared.
In less than a year, four county magistrates of Zishui County were replaced. This was a record-breaking event since Qin Xiaogong established Zishui County. The villagers could not tell whether they were bare-faced or pock-marked, and even
Without knowing their names and surnames, they disappeared from Zishui County like a revolving lantern. This incident troubled Mr. Zhu a lot. He looked through the county annals of the past dynasties. Although there were many discrepancies in the various versions of the county annals, there was no information about Zishui County and Township.
The people's evaluation is consistent with eight words: deep water, deep soil, and simple folk customs. Mr. Zhu thought: Can such a conclusion be made in the newly compiled county annals?
