Da Ming started to ascend the throne

After receiving the signal, the soldiers divided into three groups and began to suppress the rebellious gentry.

Don't underestimate these southern gentry, they are the behind-the-scenes forces of the Ming Dynasty civil official group, and they are no less harmful to Ming Dynasty than the rogue bandits.

If there is no internal fighting among the civil servants, neither the rogues nor the captives would be successful.

When Qinglong gave an order, the cavalry immediately drew out their sabers, bypassed the officials who were knocked down and rushed towards the rioting crowd.

There are many gentry, most of whom are literati. Although there are guards around them to protect them, it is impossible to block the cavalry attack.

When the cavalry rushed up, the horses knocked hundreds of people into the air instantly, and most of the gentry were hit by the horses with broken bones and tendons, and the scene was in chaos.

The gentry who could still move got up from the ground in embarrassment and shouted:

"You fools, don't you know that we are all scholars? What you did today will chill the hearts of scholars. Daming is in danger. Hey, today's matter is not over. The imperial court must give an explanation to the scholars of the world."

In the past, the status of literati in the Ming Dynasty was quite high, and military officers of the third rank even had to pay respects to civil servants of the fifth rank.

This also cultivated the pampering and arrogance of the gentry, until now they still can't recognize the form, and this demonstration was also launched for the purpose of seizing power.

In their hearts, the gentry of Ming Dynasty is the group that should be protected the most. As for the safety of the country, it is not as important as their self-interest.

Qinglong laughed wildly:

"Hahaha, it's just a big joke. If there is no scholar, Daming will collapse? Where were you when the bandits made trouble in the east, why didn't you come out and spray them to death? !"

With Qinglong's order, the knights immediately drew out their sabers, urged their horses to charge forward, and dropped their heads to the ground with their sabers in their hands.

The scene was full of the sound of swords piercing into flesh and the screams of the gentry, and blood flowed quickly.

The gentry, who were still unscrupulous just now, and who didn't even care about the emperor, began to run away crying and crying.

Qinglong and several Jinyiwei got off their horses and helped governor Zhu Yinxi and others.

"My lords, it's too risky for you to do this, you must protect yourself, they have all fallen into madness."

Zhu Yinxi saw that the gentry were enjoying the tyranny of the cavalry attack, and he was very happy.

But there are also concerns:

"Master Commander, is it too bloody to do this, they are all scholars of Ming Dynasty!"

Feeling snorted:

"My lords, did they look like scholars when they suppressed looting and burning? And did they look like scholars when they besieged you officials just now?

The Holy Majesty said that they are cancers of the Ming Dynasty. This commander was ordered to wipe out the rioters. You should avoid them immediately, or you will be implicated. "

Qinglong Huaxia hadn't landed yet, he had already flew on his horse and charged forward, and Jin Yiwei followed behind him like a gust of wind.

Seeing Qinglong leave, Zhu Yinxi turned around and said to the officials:

"Go, go back and check whether the officials who escaped just now have committed corruption."

When the Qinglong suppressed the gentry in Jinling, Wuxi, where Donglin Academy was located, was also attacked by the gentry.

As the headquarters of the Donglin Party, the demonstrations here are even crazier.

Not only did they vandalize, loot and burn, but even many ordinary people became their targets.

Not only the gentry were among the crowd, but also the servants of their families participated. The bustling southern business center has almost turned into a family hell.

Along the way of their demonstrations, as long as they saw someone coming in and out, they would immediately go up and beat them violently, and all their belongings were robbed.

If they resisted a little, they would immediately be beaten more bloodily. They didn't look like scholars at all.

Going forward is the location of the government office. At this time, they are even more crazy and are ready to attack the magistrate's office.

Suddenly a team appeared on their way forward, the number was not large, it looked like more than 200 people in a university.

These people were all armed with flintlock guns, and the leader was a handsome man with a slender figure and fair skin.

I saw that this person was wearing a flying fish suit, but his hands were coldly looking at the demonstrators rushing towards them, and he said coldly:

"Everyone stop, disband immediately and go home and stay honest, otherwise next year today will be your memorial day."

When this person spoke, his tone was extremely cold, giving people a feeling of being cold to the bone.

It was Yu Huatian, the governor of the West Factory of Ming Dynasty, who was also in charge of combating customs smuggling and supervising official corruption.

Yuhuatian doesn't talk much, and he is usually reticent, but he is very low-key and never fights for power and profit.

Generally, eunuchs almost always speak in a high-pitched voice, because they have no descendants, and they attach great importance to money, fame and fortune.

But Yuhuatian is a different kind of eunuch. Not only can he not be seen as a eunuch, but he also treats money, fame and wealth as dung.

There are more than 1 protesters and rioters. Of course, they are not afraid of the 200 people in Yuhuatian.

As for Yuhuatian and the others having firearms, the gentry didn't care at all.

It wasn't that they were not afraid of firearms, but that they didn't believe that Yuhuatian dared to shoot at all.

Of course, they didn't know that the person facing him would be Yuhuatian, the governor of Xichang.

"Hahaha, did you hear that? They told us to stop, but these few big soldiers dared to come out to mess around. It's ridiculous, rushing to grab their firearms..."

Instigated by some people, the crowd began to rush towards Yuhuatian and the others.

He didn't dare to shoot, what a joke, Yuhuatian wouldn't even frown if he killed them all.

Seeing these disorderly gentry who don't care about life and death, they don't care about their existence at all, and there are still people shouting for guns, Yu Huatian swung his right arm violently:

"Three rows of continuous fire, shoot!"

"Bang bang bang bang..."

With a wave of Yu Huatian's hand, gunshots rang out instantly, and two hundred soldiers stood in six rows and fired continuously.

A volley came down, and the gentry rushing to the front fell instantly.

"shot"

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Gunshots rang out one after another, and two hundred flintlock guns fired in turn.

The rioting gentry also fell down in rows with the gunfire, and nearly 1000 people were quickly killed.

I saw my companions fall down one by one, some had their heads blown off, and some had their stomachs pierced.
