Chapter 1056 Catastrophe is imminent
Many wounded men sitting on the ground in Longdan Village immediately stood up, clenched the guys in their hands, and gathered together, knowing very well that from this moment on, it was a battle of life, and killing each other first would reduce one enemy.

As the two villages of Longmen Village and Longyi Village were speaking, the strong men of the two villages rushed up. Compared with the first time to bury the well, this time they rushed to kill people. You won’t let me live well. Then I will kill you!
The sound of cursing, the sound of guys colliding, the sound of wailing and screaming, the scene is chaotic and tragic, no doubt like a real battlefield.

Both sides are to live, and they can't tell right from wrong.

Su Huaizhang kept yelling, revealing his identity as the son of the Jijiu family, and promised to help everyone tide over the difficulties with gold and silver, but his shouts were so insignificant compared to the chaotic voices, and no one cared about who he was. My eyes are red.

Su Huaizhang's voice was suppressed, and he looked at all this blankly, full of powerlessness, and he couldn't do anything.

The women of Longdan Village sent their husbands knives, forks, sticks, kitchen knives and axes from home.

Because of the addition of these weapons, the situation further intensified, blood and flesh splattered, and many people fell to the ground and remained motionless.

A Gou was fighting desperately, when suddenly his son's voice came from beside him: "Father, I'll help you!"

Agou turned his head and saw that his son was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and immediately yelled: "Go back! Go back!"

Suddenly, the opponent swung a hoe at his leg, Kacha's leg broke, and he knelt down.

Seeing his father being beaten, the boy swung a kitchen knife to take revenge, but he was a boy after all. When the opponent picked him up with a hoe, the knife fell to the ground.

Seeing that the young man was about to lose his head, at this time a strong shoulder blocked the hoe for the young man, but it was Ah Mang, who struck the opponent's head with the ax in his hand, and the man suddenly lost his head.

A Mang turned his head and yelled fiercely at the young man, "Go home!"

The young man had never seen such a bloody scene before, and he was frightened and ran away in a hurry.

"Ah Mang, thank you."

"Agou, I don't owe you any more."

After all, due to the gap in the number of people, Longdan Village is at a disadvantage.

In this kind of fight between villages in the past, one party would run away if he couldn't fight, and when the other party ran to the house, you could shout at the door, but you couldn't chase into the house. This is the bottom line.

But this time the fighting with weapons was different. Longdan Village couldn't fight, but they didn't run home, but stayed around the well.

This led to bloody fighting that continued.

Seeing that many people were killed, the old man's hands trembled slightly. He didn't expect the people in Longdan Village to be so tenacious. He has lived for more than 70 years, and he has seen hundreds of fights with weapons, but he has never seen such a An endless scene.

Just as Long Dan Village responded just now, he would rather die than surrender.

Things have progressed to this point, and no one can stop it.

At this moment, a large number of officers and soldiers appeared and ran towards the location of the weapon fight. Their lower limbs were covered with mud. It was obvious that they came in a hurry after receiving the news.

In addition to the yamen servants in charge of the county's security, there were hundreds of people who came to arrest the important criminals. It seemed that all the security forces in the county that could be mobilized immediately were mobilized.

As soon as these officers and soldiers arrived, they showed off their bright sabers in demonstration.

Seeing these officers and soldiers, the red-eyed two sides instantly touched a certain nerve, and stopped fighting involuntarily.

People have been afraid of officials since ancient times, but the situation seems to be far more than that.

Seeing that the two sides stopped fighting, the elder was not happy, closed his old eyes, and his face seemed to have aged a few years in an instant.

Guo Tai, the village official of Longmen Village, murmured: "It's over, it's over, it's all over."

And Huang Xin, who was clamoring for the destruction of the village just a moment ago, turned pale at this moment, and slumped on the ground.

The young men of Longmen Village and Longyi Village all looked ashen, and they didn't need to be scolded by officers and soldiers, so they consciously threw away the guys in their hands, all of them looked downcast, waiting for the verdict.

Nothing can be done now.

An official sedan chair stopped, and an adult wearing a scarlet official uniform descended from the sedan chair. It was Zhao Baohua, the Governor of Ji County.

Zhao Baohua glanced around lightly, and asked in a stern voice, "Where is the elder?"

The old man who was over seventy years old quickly stepped forward to pay homage: "The little man Hu Yuanyi has seen the governor."

Although the old man is the head of a township, he has no actual authority and no official title, so he needs to practice the ritual of seeing an official by the people.

"I heard that someone dug a well without permission, is there such a thing?"

The sheriff didn't ask the reason for the fighting, but first asked if someone dug the well, which shows that in his heart, this is the top priority.

Early in the morning, while he was still asleep, he heard a report from his subordinates that someone had dug a well within ten miles of the mausoleum of the king's mansion in Yudong County. He was so frightened that he immediately led all the government officials in the county to come quickly.

The elder nodded.

Zhao Baohua's eyebrows trembled slightly upon hearing this, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Did you dig it?"

The old man nodded again, Zhao Baohua trembled with anger, and after a while he shouted with murderous aura: "Bold! Damn it!"

The scene of thousands of people was as silent as a chilling cicada.

Zhao Baohua trembled and said: "Since the first day I took office, I have repeatedly issued strict warnings that anyone who dares to dig a well within ten miles of the royal residence in Yudong County will be sentenced to death."

"Who dug the well? To do such a disrespectful thing."

Disrespect is one of the top ten felonies in Daguan Kingdom, and the offender is sentenced to beheading.

"Old man, who dug the well?"

Zheng Guotai of Longmen Village collected himself, and walked forward quickly: "My lord, Xiaomin Guotai of Longmen Village."

Zhao Baohua's eyes showed a fierce look, he gritted his teeth and asked, "You dug the well."

Guo Tai pointed at Qiuban: "It was Zheng Qiuban of Longdan Village who encouraged the villagers of Longdan Village to dig water wells privately. I received the news and led the villagers of Longmen Village to come to stop it. That's when I started fighting with Longdan Village."

The well has been dug, and the news has leaked out. Guo Tai knew that he would also be implicated, thinking that he would put all the charges on Longdan Village first, and with his efforts to prevent it, he might be able to save the villagers of Longmen Village from death.

"How unreasonable! Bravery! Lawless!"

Zhao Baohua turned pale with anger: "Who is Qiuban! Get out of here!"

Qiu Ban stepped forward from the crowd: "My lord, Xiaomin Qiu Ban, dare to ask your lord, digging a well to fetch water, what is the crime?"

How could Zhao Baohua talk nonsense with him, pointing at Qiuban, and shouted in a cold voice: "Ignore the official's prohibition, openly instigate, commit such a serious crime of disrespect, this person will be executed on the spot!"

Two policemen came forward with knives and were about to execute Qiuban on the spot.

At this moment, Ah Gou stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Wait a minute, I also have a share!"

As soon as Ah Gou said this, all the men in Longdan Village came forward without knowing where the courage came from: "I have a share too!"

"I have a share" sounded one after another, and the crowd of hundreds of people also drowned Qiu Zheng in the middle.

After feeling the joy of getting water from the well, they were unwilling to go back, just as the saying goes—it is better to die than surrender.

Zhao Baohua sneered angrily: "Okay, okay, it will save me to find out one by one, you all have a share, right?"

"These people will all be executed on the spot!"

Anyway, it was death. All the villagers in Longmen Village held on tightly to their knives, forks, sticks, kitchen knives and axes, and planned to fight to the end.

Seeing hundreds of people openly resisting with weapons, all the yamen servants and arresters were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Zhao Baohua sneered: "Well, well, if you want to rebel, it's a death penalty."

At this moment, there was a sound of running in unison from a distance, and a large number of soldiers came trotting, wearing uniform uniforms of the county soldiers. There were about [-] of them, and it was the Jijun army who came.

Zhao Baohua seemed to be on a killing spree before he came, so the county army was mobilized in advance.

A general in armor stepped forward and said, "My lord, I will lead the Jijun army to report here!"

"General Xu, you came at the right time. This group of rebels committed serious crimes of disrespect, digging wells privately in disregard of the official's order, and destroying the tomb of the king's marquis. Second, they openly resisted the law and rebelled. You are hereby ordered to arrest these rebels. Kill all the thieves!"

"The subordinate takes orders."

Responding, the county lieutenant issued a call: "Archer!"

Three hundred archers lined up, and two hundred infantry stood guard with swords, waiting for the general's order to shoot.

Facing this group of well-equipped and well-trained regular troops, hundreds of villagers looked at the knives, forks and sticks in their hands, and Fang felt that the so-called resistance was nothing more than hitting a stone with an egg and overestimating their own capabilities.

No one gave orders, didn't know how to escape, and no one rushed to kill, they just held the thing in their hands tightly.

Although death is imminent, facing the officers and soldiers, the fear in his bones, like a mouse seeing a cat, still cannot be erased.

Agou suddenly saw his son in the crowd, his eyes turned red and tears flowed out.

The county lieutenant slowly raised his hand, and everyone in Longdan village gasped, feeling the coldness to the bone.

At this moment, Su Huaizhang stumbled out of the crowd, shouting: "Wait a minute, my father, Guozijian, sacrifices wine to Su Changhe."

Su Huaizhang was hit by a sap in the chaos just now and passed out. He just woke up and found this scene.

Hearing this, Zhao Baohua hurriedly shouted: "Stop!"

Su Huaizhang's identity does not play much role in the face of the villagers, but it has some influence in front of the officials.

Ordinary officials would not dare to offend high-ranking officials in the capital, let alone shoot and kill the son of a high-ranking official's family.

But seeing that this person was dressed in rags, but he was handsome, with delicate skin and tender flesh, obviously he was from a wealthy family.

Looking at his posture and spirit, his graceful steps are calm, elegant and youthful, and his whole body is full of the nobility of an official family, only the word "eunuch" is written on his forehead.

Being in the officialdom, he has to watch his words and demeanor every day. Zhao Baohua's eyes are so vicious, and he already believes it in his heart.

Su Huaizhang went directly to Zhao Baohua, and bowed his hands in a salute neither humble nor overbearing: "I'm Su Huaizhang, my father, Guozijian sacrificed wine to Su Changhe, what's your name?"

The flesh on Zhao Baohua's tense face melted instantly, and he laughed: "So it's the son of Master Jijiu's family, I really don't know a thing or two today."

He said in return: "Zhao Baohua, governor of Ji County."

Su Huaizhang looked at Zhao Baohua in a crimson official uniform rather arrogantly: "Master Zhao mobilizes people, what do you want to do?"

"Young Master Su, you have seen that these unscrupulous people dare to dig water wells in spite of the official's strict order, and they deserve to be punished!"

Su Huaizhang smiled: "Digging a well to fetch water is necessary for the people's livelihood. What is the reason for the prohibition, my lord? Besides, I have never heard of the absurd thing that digging a well is punishable by death. Your lord's move It’s a bit of a suspicion of bullying the people by taking advantage of the situation.”

Zhao Baohua replied: "Of course it is possible to dig a well to get water, but it is impossible to dig here. This place is the mausoleum of the Yudong County Prince's Mansion within a radius of ten miles. Instead of being grateful to Dade, he did a disrespectful act of destroying the mausoleum of the prince."

Just as Su Huaizhang was about to speak, Zhao Baohua spoke first, "Mr. Su has never heard of the absurd thing that digging a well will punish him with death. I will ask Mr. Su, does Mr. Su dare to dig a well near the imperial mausoleum to fetch water?"

Su Huaizhang was speechless for a moment. Although he was knowledgeable and talented, he was no match for Zhao Baohua, an old official in the officialdom. To put it bluntly, he was able to talk to Zhao Baohua because of his skin as the son of Jijiujia.

The villagers of Longdan Village saw that the governor was polite and respectful to Su Huaizhang, and after secretly breathing a sigh of relief, they began to discuss in a low voice.

"Who is this person? It seems that he has a lot of background."

"I seem to see him walking very close to Xiaotang."

"What kind of official is the Guozijian Jijiu? Is it bigger than the county guard?"

Qiuping and his son showed surprise. Unexpectedly, Mr. Su really has some background. Earlier, he thought that he would only cheat and cheat, bragging and talking big.

Qiuhong also looked at Su Huaizhang with admiration at this meeting, and responded to everyone's doubts: "This young master is Xiaotang's friend."

"So it's Xiaotang's friend."

"Where did Xiaotang meet such a noble friend?"

"He's Xiaotang's friend, so he should help us?"

Qiu Hong blurted out: "Yes! Mr. Su values ​​love and righteousness, and will definitely help us."

Hearing Qiu Hong's words, everyone's nervous faces finally showed joy, and temporarily pinned their hopes on Mr. Su.

Su Huaizhang pondered for a moment: "Master, I think they are first-time offenders, can you be tolerant."

As soon as this remark came out, the old fox's Zhao Baohua immediately took advantage of it: "Mr. Su, the national law is ruthless. The first crime is disrespect, and the second crime is to resist the law and rebel. Both of these are capital crimes! How can you ask me to be tolerant."

If it was an ordinary matter, Zhao Baohua would naturally be willing to sell the face of the wine-sacrificing master, but this matter is of great importance, if it is not handled well, even he himself will lose his head.

As the king of the Yuzhou area, the Prince's Mansion of Yudong County would kill a small county guard with a single sentence.

Don't talk about Jijiu Master's son, even if Guozijian Jijiu Su Changhe is in front of him, he still knows who to favor and whom to do things for.

Su Huaizhang asked in a deep voice: "Master Zhao is really unwilling to tolerate." He wanted to save the lives of these people first, and then slowly mediate.

Zhao Baohua smiled and shook his head: "Forgive me for not bending the law for personal gain."

Su Huaizhang was so forced that he had no choice but to shout loudly: "I also have a part in digging the well without permission, so the Lord will kill me."

In order to save the lives of these villagers, Su Huaizhang did not hesitate to kill himself.

It's a pity that he is still a bit tender when facing an old fox like Zhao Baohua.
