Late Qing Dynasty Executioner

Chapter 210 Comprehensive Suppression of the White Lotus Sect

"Boom~!"

A submachine gun on a wheelbarrow fired, and then ten consecutive rounds rang out at the same time.

Then there was another burst of rifle fire.

The three thousand volunteers fell down one after another like wheat. Xian Dachuan, Gou Wenming, Qi Zhenshan on the city wall, and all the soldiers defending the city were stunned.

Just that round of gunfire had knocked down nearly half of the 3,000 volunteers.

It's not like everyone has never seen guns and other firearms before, and everyone knows that the Huaxia tribe is powerful, but no one expected them to be so powerful!
The fallen rebel soldiers howled like ghosts, and the standing rebel soldiers also gave a uniform shout, then turned around and ran away, at this time they only regretted that their parents had not given them two more legs.

Unfortunately, the city gate was so small that it became crowded in an instant and was eventually blocked. The people behind ran to both sides around the city wall.

On the city wall, Qi Zhenshan felt his scalp tingling. He looked at Lao Nian as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. He reached out to grab Lao Nian, but just as he was about to speak, he was shot in the hand. A flower of blood spurted out from his wrist, followed by a flower of blood spurting out from his temple and neck.

At the same time, people around Lao Nian and his two companions were shot and fell to the ground one after another. The people around the three were so scared that they quickly bent down to avoid them and quickly moved away from them.

Since the other party dared to shoot and kill people, it would be useless to threaten them with just three people. They definitely wanted to save people, but between the army and individuals, no one would abandon an army, or even a strategic goal, just one person.

That won’t work even if the person is an emperor, such as the one called Men Tianzi or the Ming God of War in the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, Qi Zhenshan is dead now, Xian Dachuan and Gou Wenming have also escaped. Why should these little pawns like them fight for their lives? It would be fine if fighting was valuable, but if they fight now, they will really lose their lives.

"Hahaha, let's go into the city!" Lao Piao laughed and raised his voice and shouted, "Those who surrender will not be killed!"

After Lao Piao entered the city, he immediately climbed up the city wall and untied the ropes that bound Lao Nian, teasing him, "How did you fall into their hands?"

"Be careful, ah~!" Lao Nian suddenly raised his foot and took a step sideways, followed by a scream.

It turned out that there was a man on the ground pretending to be dead. He suddenly swung a knife at Zhong Lao Piao's knee, but Lao Nian blocked the knife for Lao Piao.

"Die!" Lao Piao yelled and kicked out, but the opponent dodged it.

"Humph!"

Lao Piao snorted coldly, strode forward, and when he got close to the opponent, he kicked him again. The opponent chopped at him with a knife, and Lao Piao, who was already prepared, raised his leg to let the opponent chop on the shin guard, then he suddenly popped out his toes and kicked the opponent in the chest.

The opponent took several steps back, and Lao Piao chased him and punched him in the chest continuously. The second punch made a bone cracking sound in the opponent's chest, and the third punch made the opponent spit out blood.

But Lao Piao threw five consecutive punches before stopping, then turned around to check on Lao Nian's condition. As for the man who was hit by five punches by Lao Piao, he died before he fell to the ground.

"How are you?" Lao Piao hurried to check on Lao Nian's condition.

At this time, Lao Nian was sweating profusely, gritting his teeth and unable to utter a word. Lao Nian's feet had been chopped off at the knee. After Lao Piao tore a piece of cloth to tie Lao Nian's legs to stop the bleeding, Lao Nian took a few deep breaths and said with a bitter smile: "I'm afraid my life is over."

"You shouldn't have blocked this knife for me. My legs are thick and the other party may not be able to cut them off!" Lao Piao said with a wry smile.

"It's okay. In our Huaxia Department, Lao Nian can be without legs, but Lao Piao cannot be without legs. The White Lotus Sect is not that simple. Some people have been completely controlled and have become diehard fans of the White Lotus Sect.

You killed their leader. They don't dare to fight us openly, but they will not stop retaliating. You should be careful, and remind the leader to be careful too. It's easy to dodge an open attack, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark!" After saying this, Lao Nian finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.

Lao Piao couldn't help but sigh. Now he really didn't know how to explain to Chen Gu.

The White Lotus Sect was indeed difficult to wipe out. After the army entered the city, even with bulletproof vests, they still lost more than a dozen people and had twenty to thirty injured before they finally cleared out the resistance forces in the city.

When Lao Piao learned about the situation, he became furious. He asked the surrendered rebel soldiers to identify the core members of the White Lotus Sect, and then arrested the real White Lotus Sect members, but killed anyone who resisted.

Two days later, Chen the Judge, who learned the detailed military situation in Pingchang County, was also furious. He ordered the entire Sichuan province to wipe out the White Lotus Sect. Believers must reform, missionaries must be arrested and sent to labor camps, and the backbone members must be sent to Chongqing to be tried by Chen the Judge himself.

At this time, half of Sichuan had completed the equal distribution of land, and the remaining half was also in full swing. This made Chen Ju's reputation among the people reach a very high level.

The White Lotus Sect was originally banned by the Qing court, and now even the new leader Chen Gu has banned the White Lotus Sect, which shows that the White Lotus Sect is really not a good thing.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, Chen Gu must be a good leader. Not only was he willing to distribute land to them, but he also exempted them from corvée and various exorbitant taxes. They only had to pay 10% of the grain.

Even if a joint defense team is formed, the team members will not work in vain, because the joint defense team has public land.

Each person had five acres of land that could not be divided up, and the remaining land was naturally taken by Chen the assassin as public land. The members of the joint defense team were responsible for cultivating the public land, and after the harvest, half was used for the daily needs of the joint defense team, and the other half was turned into public reserves for future disaster relief.

If a person is born, five acres of public land will be used to support the newborn baby. Conversely, if someone dies, the five acres of land belonging to him will also be taken back.

This is very fair. For ordinary people, although the fields do not belong to them, the harvest is theirs, and no one can take these fields away. After all, they do not belong to them in the first place. Whoever steals them is also stealing Chen Ju's fields.

Now that Chen the Executor wants to ban the White Lotus Sect, the people will no longer believe in it.

The White Lotus Sect, caught up in the people's war, suddenly found it difficult to move forward. If they did not preach, they would be fine, but if they did, they would be reported immediately.

In a very short period of time, the White Lotus Sect was on the verge of extinction. After all, without preaching, the White Lotus Sect would no longer exist.

Chen Gu's terrifying appeal frightened the Buddhists and Taoists for a time, fearing that Chen Gu would use the same method against them.

Originally, Chen Gu's legislative assembly had naturally invited Buddhists and Taoists, but these masters who claimed to be out of touch with the world were dismissive.

Before Chen Gu had the chance to take action against them, his suppression of the White Lotus Sect served as a warning to others, and these masters finally came down the mountain.
