Chapter 576: A tit for tat

With the pull of the trigger, the steel wheel driven by the clockwork rotated instantly, and the steel teeth kept rubbing against the flint clip and burst out from Mars. Then the gunpowder in the fire hole next to the flint was ignited...

The gunshots instantly resounded through the mountains and forests.

It was only a few meters away. Jiang Lei's short gun was actually a carbine. The bullet hit the man's chest. He seemed to be hit by a critical punch, and he took two steps back and fell back on his back.

Everyone stopped.

"Those who dare to rebel will be killed without mercy!"

Jiang Lei said.

The source of this, looking blankly at the man lying beside him, the huge carbine bullets with a caliber made the same huge wound on the man's chest without any protection, and blood was pouring out and pouring into the rain, and then dyeing the grass under him red.

He suddenly cried out with a sad voice.

The next moment, he was like crazy, dragging his still bleeding legs forward, and suddenly hit Jiang Lei's chest.

The latter was caught off guard and fell backwards as well in his impact.

The man snatched his short gun and smashed it hard at his head like a hammer. Jiang Lei finally had some martial arts skills and swayed his head to avoid the attack, but the man snatched the gun again...

"shot!"

Wu Yangchun said angrily.

A soldier hurriedly raised his gun.

The civilian who had punched the soldier before suddenly hit him. The moment he pulled the trigger, the muzzle was tilted to the side, accompanied by the fire of the muzzle, and the bullet hit Shi Prefect. The unlucky Shi Prefect screamed and fell down in the impact of the bullet, and even instinctively pulled Magistrate Ni together.

"Brothers, fight with them! Kill me, for our descendants not to be slaves, fight with them!"

The man yelled.

At the same time, he pulled out the soldier's sword and threw his hand at another soldier next to him. The soldier who was knocked down by him wanted to get up. Then his fist fell down, and at the same time, there were shouts behind him, and all the civilians rushed towards the soldiers like crazy. These soldiers were just escorting, with few people at all, and the entire transport team was dragged half a mile, and the ones behind didn't even know what was going on in front. The civilians took turns pushing carts in groups of two, and some were even porters. From here to Jixi was also a mountain road, but it was not the kind of Guizhou. The mountain road in the hilly area of ​​Jiangnan was a normal road.

The sudden attack of these civilians instantly submerged the soldiers.

Wu Yangchun was shocked.

"Master, go quickly!"

His cronie Wu Wenjie pulled him and shouted.

This slave is different from other people.

According to the standards of the gentry, this is the righteous servant or something.

Wu Yangchun was awake now.

He hurriedly escaped with Wu Wenjie. County Magistrate Ni also got up, not even his hat, and followed him in muddy and water. Several accompanying yamen runners and slaves protected them. The slaves of the prefect of Shi also carried the prefect who had not yet died. At this time, the whole road was already in chaos. The civil servants and soldiers were fighting with each other, and there were soldiers behind him to reinforce. The most recent one just raised his gun, a porter next to him suddenly shook the shoulder pole, and the box was carrying the horse. The war horse stood up in a woe. The soldier who pulled the trigger on the horse was caught off guard. Under the recoil of the short gun, he fell directly backwards. Almost at the same time, two civil servants who were pushing the carts pounced on him.

And Jiang Lei was still fighting with the civilian.

Wu Yangchun didn't bother to think too much, and with Wu Wenjie's support, he quickly got into the forest next to him.

The stimulating civilian behind him finally knocked the soldier under him unconscious with his fist, and then picked up the short gun. He didn't know how to use it, and he carried it like a hammer, and walked directly to Jiang Lei who had just turned up...

"Song Qi, you dare to rebel!"

Jiang Lei said angrily.

He wanted to get up to fight, but the man below held his hands tightly.

"Rebellion? Yes, it is the rebellion of you landlords and old wealth!"

Song Qi said.

After saying that, the short gun in his hand smashed down hard, and the hard wooden gun handle directly smashed a splash of flesh and blood on Jiang Lei's head.

Jiang Lei's body shook suddenly.

The civilians under him were touching a stone from the side. When Song Qi fell down, they also slapped Jiang Lei's head with a stone, and then kept slapping like crazy, with blood splashing on his face. Song Qi then stopped caring about them. He stood up and looked around. There was a lot of melee everywhere at this moment, but the advantage of numbers made the civilians completely overwhelmed the soldiers, and some soldiers behind were already running away.

"Brothers, go to Linxi and summon more brothers who don't want to be slaves anymore! The Duke of Yingguo's army is at Congshan Pass. Let's disrupt Huizhou for Duke Yingguo, and then welcome the army to the south!"

He raised his gun and yelled.

There were roars of excitement around him.

"We don't have weapons!"

A civilian shouted suddenly.

"Weapon? If you want to kill someone, you are also a weapon!"

Song Qi shouted.

The civilians did not hesitate to find the right things nearby. The soldiers' knives, muskets, and shoulder poles even smashed the car. When a civilian who was pushing the cart smashed his car, he was shocked to find that he had actually pushed a cart grenade. A surrendered soldier immediately taught them how to use this thing. Then the civilians excitedly distributed the grenade, each carrying a piece of fuse prepared, while Song Qi called the soldier and asked him to load bullets by himself.

After a chaos, thousands of civilians were armed with wooden sticks and rushed towards the nearest Linxi.

At this time, Wu Yangchun and others had just arrived, and several local gentry in Linxi were still panicking for manpower, Song Qi's army of civil servants arrived.

And the number has increased dramatically.

During this period, the people of Huizhou had long understood the situation. Although Congshan Pass fought tenaciously, he also suffered heavy casualties and was just holding on. Behind the attacking Jingnan Army, there was an invincible Duke of Yingguo. It can be said that Congshan Pass was broken. It was just a matter of time before he took the lead and did not dare to take action. Now that Song Qi and others have taken action, the local tenants and slaves in Linxi are certainly not so stupid that they do nothing. When he arrived in Linxi, there were already more than 2,000 people, and many tenants just smashed their hoes as spears.

And those gentry pieced together the servants...

The servants turned against each other.

What they could rush together was nothing more than domestic slaves, and most of the attackers were slaves. How could these domestic slaves resist?

It’s a hell that you don’t turn against me!

Then Song Qi's army instantly captured Linxi...

Wu Yangchun and others still ran away.

In fact, they didn't dare to stay. When they arrived in Linxi, they took a breath and continued to run away. They did not run back to Shexian County or Huizhou Prefecture City. They could not guarantee safety. What they feared the most was this kind of thing, so they had to mobilize the army to suppress it immediately.

But it's also very troublesome.

Because there is no army to mobilize.

All those who can fight are in Congshanguan. Although theoretically, there will be hundreds of thousands of young and strong people in Huizhou alone, these young and strong people dare not be armed. The only ones that can be trusted are only those real close branches. But how many such people can be collected in total? Not only Huizhou, but the entire Jiangnan gentry faces this embarrassing situation. In theory, there are millions of young and strong people who can be armed, but unfortunately, after being armed, they will turn against each other 90% of them. They can guarantee that they will not turn against each other. Not only are there many, but they can also say that there are few pitiful.

And a large part of this pitiful little person is respectful of identity and it is impossible to go to the battlefield to be cannon fodder.

It's really hard for them!

Wu Yangchun and others ran away, and the local gentry in Linxi was in trouble.

"Drag it out, drag him out!"

An excited slave was wearing his master's crown on his head and wearing his master's brocade robe, but his feet were still rotten straw sandals, and he waved a knife in a funny way.

Behind him is a fellow villager.

However, the fellow villager who was usually tall and tall was trembling as if he was plague chickens, and his luxurious clothes were stripped off. He wore a pair of close-fitting clothes and was soaked in the rain, showing his shriveled body, looking like a handful of dead wood. He walked out of the joyful tenant serfs on both sides, lowered his head and held a gong in his hand, and a rope tied to his neck was restrained by the slaves in front...

"Scream!"

A slave shouted.

"Friends, our fellow villagers..."

The fellow villager said with a smile.

"Middlemen, why didn't you say that when you whip me with a whip?"

A tenant shouted.

"He also stabbed me with an awl!"

A slave shouted.

Then he took out awl and rushed forward.

The fellow villagers were so scared that they hurriedly dodged.

But several tenants and servants next to him immediately grabbed him, and then he tucked the awl on his arm, making him scream in pain...

"Does it hurt?"

The slave shouted.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

The fellow villager said crying.

"It hurts like this when you stabbed me!"

The slave roared.

"Take him, then stab him!"

There were roars around.

However, the slave did not continue, but instead squatted there with his head in his arms and cried. He didn't know what sad things he had remembered. There was a silence around him, and the fellow villager lowered his head awkwardly.

"Scream!"

Suddenly a tenant shouted with a whip.

The fellow villager was still hesitating, and then the whip fell on his back. He screamed again in pain. Now he became honest and looked at the tenant holding the whip next to him with fear, and then knocked the gong with a humiliation...

"As the master, don't be as mean as me!"

He shouted.

There were cheers of joy on both sides.

"Continue to shout, keep shouting, let the villagers see and hear!"

The tenant roared.

"As the master, you must not be as mean as me!"

The fellow villagers shouted in humiliation.
