Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xu Laosan was a retired soldier who was shot through the shoulder at close range by Wu Zhenchao, a Tartar soldier.

    ? Although the injury has healed, the right arm cannot be exerted too much strength, and even doing farm work is somewhat affected.  After he retired from the army and returned home, he served as the chief instructor of farmers and soldiers in the town. He had no grade or salary, but he could go to the county government to receive an instructor's subsidy every year.

    Going to the fields to farm when he is busy, and calling farmers and soldiers for training when he is free, this is the living condition of Xu Laosan.

    Seedlings are about to be jointed. One month from transplanting to jointing is a critical period for rice harvests, and a lot of nutrients are needed to grow rice organs.

    The eldest son is studying in elementary school, and the second son and eldest daughter, who have not yet reached school age, come to help topdress the seedlings today.

    Xu Laosan and his wife each carried a basket of silkworm dung, and a son and a daughter followed them, spreading the silkworm dung evenly in the rice field.  Don't topdress too much at one time, it will kill the seedlings, so you have to apply appropriate amount of topdressing every three to five times.

    After being busy for a while, someone came to the edge of the field and asked loudly, "But veteran Xu Zhengliang?"

    "It's me." Youngest Xu looked at him suspiciously.

    This person stood on the ridge of the field, opened his bag, took out a piece of clothing, and quickly put on the white uniform on his body: "Cao Benshu, the Inspector of Integrity of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate corrupt officials in Quzhou. The Ministry of War has dispatched orders here.  Veteran Xu Zhengliang immediately returned to the team to assist the Integrity Inspector in arresting criminals!"

    "yes!"

    The peasants who had just bent over to fertilize, straightened up like a conditioned reflex, and saluted the incorruptible officer under the sun.

    Xu Laosan put the silkworm manure on the edge of the field, told his wife and children a few words, and followed Cao Benshu away.  As he walked, he said, "The Ministry of War sent me an order to take a look at. The Shangguan took it, and I can just look at it. I touched the silkworm dung with both hands, and it was still dirty."

    Cao Benshu took out the dispatch order of the Ministry of War, and took out his waist badge, explaining: "The officials in Quzhou are very gangsters. Afraid of leaking the news, they can only call farmers and soldiers to arrest people."

    "It should be caught!"

    Xu Laosan no longer doubted, and said: "We peasants and soldiers are not allowed to manage local affairs, and we can't do anything when we see corrupt officials. It's good that you come here. The mayors, village chiefs, and peasant association chiefs here are all bad people. They  Don¡¯t dare to provoke farmers and soldiers, but dare to bully farmers who have no support. The canals that everyone built together, now let other farmers irrigate the fields after they irrigate the fields.¡±

    "Is there such a thing?" Cao Benshu was even more angry.

    Xu Laosan said: "These bastards can do a lot of bad things."

    Cao Benshu said angrily: "Village officials and peasant associations can occupy the canal, so who will contribute to repairing the canal in the future?"

    "Isn't it?" Xu Laosan said angrily, "Going back a few years, the village head and the peasant association ordered the whole village, men, women, and children to build roads and dig ditches. Now there is no more shouting, and everyone is unwilling to contribute  , the village head had to lead someone to whip him with a whip."

    "The first one is to arrest the village chief!" Cao Benshu was furious.

    Xu Laosan's trouser legs were still rolled up, and mud remained on his feet and calves.  He walked to the drying yard in the village, where there was an iron plate hanging, which could be used as an iron bell to ring.

    "Dang Dang Dang Dang!"

    From time to time, peasants and soldiers who were working quickly came from the field, and seven or eight of them came in a blink of an eye.

    Xu Laosan commanded: "Xu Er, you go to the east of the village to ring the bell. Liu Si, you go to the west of the village to ring the bell. Zhang Da, you go to inform the peasants and soldiers of Huangtou Village. Zhang San when all the groups are assembled, we will  Gather at the training ground outside the town!"

    "yes!"

    One after another, the peasants and soldiers followed the orders.

    They carried neither weapons nor armor.  He was even barefoot, with trouser legs rolled up, exactly like a farmer.

    But the action was extremely fast and methodical.

    The village head and the villagers didn't take it seriously, thinking that the imperial court was going to fight again, and urgently called up peasants and soldiers to fight.

    At noon, all the farmers and soldiers in the town arrived, except for one who was sick.

    Xu Laosan shouted: "Go to the armory, fully armed!"

    Everyone knew it was an urgent task, so they queued up and ran to the armory without asking too many questions.

    All the bamboo armor, bamboo helmets, wooden shields and bamboo spears are all made by farmers and soldiers.  It is vulnerable to the regular army, but it is not a problem to wipe out the rogue bandits.

    "Stand at attention!"

    "Look to the right, look forward. Take a break!"

    "A team obeys orders!"

    "exist!"

    "Surround the town office, and all the officials inside will be detained. If the mayor Zheng Changming is not there, ask where he is, and search and arrest immediately!"

    "yes!"

    "The second team obeys the order!"

    "exist!"

    "Go to NiuThe door, otherwise it is a crime of resisting the decree!  "

    The gate of the city was opened, and farmers and soldiers filed in.

    After entering the city, Dai Wenmeng yelled: "All the police officers in the city, hand over your weapons, and return to your own yamen, waiting for someone from the department to come to inspect! The peasants and soldiers went to the yamen in the city to arrest people according to the established tasks. Not a single official was allowed to release them."  Let's go, I want to take the trial slowly!"

    The people in the city panicked at first, thinking that the peasants and soldiers rebelled.

    Immediately after seeing the peasants and soldiers arresting the officials, they immediately understood and walked out of the house to watch the excitement.

    There are also many people who have been bullied, running with the peasants and soldiers, telling which officials are bad guys.  When they saw the bully being arrested, they were so excited that they burst into tears and knelt down on the spot and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty, long live Lord Qingtian!"

    ?Integrity officials handle cases at the local level and cannot be tried alone. They must be juried by local judicial officials throughout the process.

    On the side of Quzhou Prefecture, there are three counties and one prefecture. If the village and town levels are counted, more than 300 officials and civilians have been arrested.  After arresting all the people, they went to Hangzhou to inform Yousi Yamen, which scared the top officials of Zhejiang into ashes.

    Quzhou government is so rotten, why don't the judicial and clean government officials in Zhejiang know anything about it?

    The first and second leaders of the relevant agencies in the province will all be held accountable!

    In the slightest, he will be demoted, in severe cases, he will be dismissed from office!  </div&gt
