"A grain of ashes from the times fall on one's heads, and it's a mountain!"

Marshal Yang recited Chairman Wang’s famous quote with emotion.

Well, under his feet is Zuo Guangdou's dead body.

Zuo Fuqiu seeks benevolence and gets benevolence, and finally died in the battlefield to defend his holy lord and wise king.

He thought Mei Guozhen's army would follow up, and when he went north, Mei Guozhen agreed to him like this, so he foolishly led two thousand cavalry out of Tongcheng, trying to temporarily restrain Yang Feng, so as to gain enough time for Mei Guozhen to invest as much force as possible. After all, the latter's army of more than 100,000 went north and took some time to arrive. Even though the distance was only more than 100 miles, he had been entangled with the Red Turban Army for more than an hour after leaving the city, but he did not see Mei Guozhen's army.

Although the cavalry of his subordinates performed well and could at least fight in real terms, they were not fools either.

This is obviously coaxed by Mei Guozhen.

So they simply chose to abandon Zuo Guangdou and flee.

They are cavalrymen, so it is easy to escape. The road from Tongcheng to the west is smooth, so just run back to Jiujiang.

The deceived and abandoned Zuo Guangdou also tried to return to Tongcheng to continue defending. As a result, Fang Xuejian's third son Fang Daqin led the militia to attack the Confucian Temple while the Dingsheng Army saw that his companions had escaped, so they quickly opened the north gate to escape. Fang Daqin released Zhang Chun and others, and then directly closed the city gate to Zuo Guangdou who was trying to return to the city.

In the end, he was shot to death by the Huaiyang cavalry.

Poor death!

At this time, Zhang Chun, Fang Xuejian, Sheng Shicheng and other groups of old people who had just been released were looking at this demon-like man tremblingly...

"Actually, you are not considered as a surrender at most. I am a very reasonable person. If you are not in Tongcheng yet, you will tie up the rebels, then this is considered anyway. But my army has arrived and started fighting. Then it is obvious that you are not sincere, but are forced to open the door to greet each other. Then this is surrender."

Yang Feng said.

"Master, I was originally going to welcome the Master, but I was imprisoned in the Confucian Temple by Zuo Guangdou. I am also your old minister. My loyalty to Your Majesty can be seen."

Zhang Chun quickly said with a smile.

Anyway, it is different from surrender. Anyway, nothing is affected. It is just that the land is divided. To be precise, it is the crimes that have not been blamed during the period of conspiracy. That is, the crimes after the establishment of the Hongguang Dynasty were written off. For example, Bi Maokang, no matter what he did after the establishment of the Hongguang Dynasty, it is written off. However, if he committed a serious crime before and was sued by the victim, the accounts must be settled. However, this has nothing to do with conspiracy, and it is a normal criminal case.

After all, before they were rioters, they were also subjects of His Majesty the Emperor. Even if Hongguang did not rebel, as long as they committed a crime, someone sued them would be judged.

This is very reasonable.

Including the public trials conducted in various parts of Jiangnan, which are aimed at this situation.

But surrender is different.

Surrender is to liquidate other crimes during the period of contradictory reversal.

Surrender is only exempt from the serious crime of rebellion, and this crime is to be implicated in the nine tribes, and surrender is only exempt from this.

However, in order to harm the people during the period of rebellion, this is necessary to liquidate the people. This has nothing to do with rebellion or rebellion. If you violate the law without rebellion, you also need to be punished according to the law. What's more, if you are rebellious, you can be exempted from punishment by surrender?

So isn't it too unfair to those who are punished for crimes that are currently loyal to the emperor?

Fair, fair, or fair!

Fairness is the most important thing.

Most of these gentry had done bad things to resist during this period.

Force donations, collect rent by force, lynch the troublemakers, and even rob the men and women. During this period, they were local emperors. In the past, they had more or less restrained styles of painting becoming increasingly violent. If Yang Feng had not taken action quickly, they would have returned to the prosperous era of the Yuan Dynasty. It would have been a dream for Mr. Huang to delay Mr. Huang for a few more years! In fact, at this time, the local officials in Shandong already had this tendency, because they still insisted on officials from other provinces, so it was normal for local gentry to bully officials.

The county magistrate is really almost kneeling down to beg for food.

So anyway, there is a fundamental difference between surrender and these gentry!

"Ha, you are all the great clans who have made the masters in the city. If you weren't still swaying in your heart, how could Zuo Guangdou imprison you?"

Yang Feng said.

"After all the time, you are just trying to search the house. You regard yourself as a loyal minister and claim to be trying to save the people of the world. Are gentry not considered human beings?"

An angry voice rang out.

"Ye, do you have a daughter?"

Yang Feng unexpectedly looked at a girl in the crowd.

The latter was seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a plate armor, and glared at him, but his unique charm made Yang Dashui's vicissitudes of heart rippled.

"Returning to the Grand Marshal, this is my granddaughter. I led the militia to escaping the rebels from the city with my three sons."

Fang Xuejian said quickly.

"Of your eldest son's house?"

Yang Feng said.

However, his eyes still did not move as he spoke.

And the girl still glared at him.

“That’s right.”

"Your eldest son is the Minister of Justice of the Hongguang pseudo-official court, right?"

"This is indeed the case."

"ah!"

Yang Feng smiled meaningfully, then walked straight towards the girl, standing in front of her less than a meter away.

This distance made the latter obviously panic. Although she was so angry that she could not bear it anymore, she was still very scared when she calmed down. After all, the person in front of her was notorious, and she was even rumored to use it out like some legendary tyrants before eating. She trembled and touched her waist. She also had a short gun around her waist, but she was either a cavalry or a super small trumpet for self-defense, but she didn't dare to pull it out after all.

This thing has to be wound, and it is useless to pull it out now.

Then, in her panic gaze, Yang Dashuai stretched out his claws towards her...

"Yes, in my opinion, gentry is not a human being!"

Yang Dashuai said while tapping the steel plate on her chest with his fingers.

The steel plate sounded softly.

Then he turned his head...

"Do you think gentry is a human being?"

He shouted to the people around him.

"Not count!"

"Not count!"

...

Countless voices answered.

"Look, they don't count. In the past, the gentry treated them as human beings, and treated them as cows, horses, pigs and sheep, but now they have begun to truly live a life of human beings, so why should they treat gentry as human beings? If gentry wants to be human beings like them, then they have to ask whether they agree or not. I am a very reasonable person, and I am also a person who respects public opinion. If the people accept gentry, then they can be human beings. If the people do not accept it, then they are really not human beings.

So whether the gentry here is considered a human being is not up to you and I have the final say, but the people have the final say.

Is he considered a human?"

Yang Feng pointed at her grandfather and said.

The people around were talking...

"Mr. Fang teaches, he didn't do anything bad, right?"

"Yes, he bought my father's coffin for money."

...

It is obvious that Mr. Fang has a good reputation.

In fact, these ordinary people are very simple and kind. The ancient moral system ultimately affects them. If it weren't for the kind of people who were extremely guilty, they would really be difficult to kill them. After all, the villagers and their ancestors lived on the same land for generations. In addition, they mainly do not consider things too deep. If Yang Dashui personally reminded them, the situation might be different. But Yang Dashui, who is facing other people's granddaughter, obviously has no time to care about this.

"Calculate!"

"Calculate!"

...

Then shouts rang out.

"Then, welcome back to the embrace of the people!"

Yang Feng opened his arms and said sincerely and enthusiastically to the girl.

"snort!"

The latter snorted and ignored him.

"Are you refusing to return to the embrace of the people? If you refuse, it is your Fang family who refuses. You should know that your father is still under Hongguang. Although your Fang family has made contributions to expel the rebel party, this cannot change the fact that your Fang family is still a family member of the rebel party. So are you refusing to return to the embrace of the people or willing to return to the embrace of the people?"

Yang Feng said seriously by opening his arms and holding them openly.

The girl was stunned for a moment.

She looked at her grandfather with help, but her grandfather was looking at her with help. She was hesitating there in shame and anger. Yang Feng opposite was still open his arms, like a poisonous scorpion with big claws. After all, she took a step forward helplessly, gritted her teeth and hugged him, and then quickly separated like she was avoiding a scorpion...

"You are wearing steel plates, and I am wearing steel plates. When you hug them, you can jingle and make a sound. Is it necessary to be so squeaky?"

Yang Feng said dissatisfiedly.

There was a burst of laughter around immediately.
To be continued...
