Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

Carter climbed into the tank and asked,

"Hu, what do you mean?"

"Carter, remember this: if you can't defeat them, join them! I'm changing my flag and banner, instantly becoming the hero who liberated the county. Even if the troops accept the reorganization, as long as my men remain, this industrial zone won't change!"

Two words popped up in Carter's mind: warlord!

However, Hu Zhenhua does not seek separatism, so it is more covert.

Carter already understood Hu Zhenhua's intention: this guy wanted to steal the fruits of the revolutionary victory.

After the troops entered the city, Hu Zhenhua walked while holding a loudspeaker to spread the word.

"Fellow villagers, I'm Hu Zhenhua, and I have good news for you: the county has been liberated! From today, the reactionaries have been swept into the dustbin of history! From today, there will be no more oppression, no more hunger! From today, the people have become the masters of this land..."

"Fellow villagers, I am Hu Zhenhua. If you have suffered any grievances, you may file a complaint with the newly established People's Government. We have zero tolerance for local tyrants, bullies, and corrupt officials. Once we discover them, we will punish them without mercy! I want to warn you all: Confess and receive leniency; resist and receive severity! Any attempt to resist will be met with a ruthless blow!"

"The People's Government implements the policy of land to the tiller. Landowners and powerful families are limited to 30 mu of land each. Any excess land, forests, ponds, and lakes must be surrendered! Those who take the initiative, as long as they haven't committed serious crimes, can keep their property!"

Wang Yunsheng, who was sitting in the back car, had a very unhappy look on his face. His favorite thing in his life was to accumulate land.

In his view, everything is illusory; only land is real and can be passed down to future generations.

Lu Xiangsheng also had a grim expression on his face. He had been actively trying to persuade the defenders to surrender, but upon hearing this, he immediately turned back and trotted after the tanks, smiling apologetically.

"Chairman, the situation is unstable right now. Can we implement the policy of 'land to the tiller' and proceed step by step?"

How could Hu Zhenhua not see his little tricks? He just wanted to delay and then use gifts and connections to preserve the land and property.

Old Hu snorted coldly.

"The situation is unstable? Who dares to be unstable? Show me!"

Hu Zhenhua picked up the microphone again and shouted,

"I only give you one day. Anyone with more than 30 mu of land must turn it in. Those who fail to do so will have their property confiscated and their heads executed!"

Hu Zhenhua was promoting the product enthusiastically when he heard a cry of surprise from the side.

"My Lord, you have to make the decision for me!"

Hu Zhenhua immediately ordered the tank to stop and asked,

"What grievance have you suffered?"

Kneeling on the ground was an old man, thin and with an unshaven beard, who kept kowtowing.

"I, Zhou Mancang, live with my granddaughter and make a living by singing. Half a month ago, Feng Batian snatched my granddaughter away and sold her to Hongxiuzhao. Please, sir, take action!"

The name Hongxiuzhao tells you it means a brothel.

Lu Xiangsheng's face turned dark. This Feng Batian, whose real name was Feng Xiucheng, was a man of gentle appearance, but in fact he was a perpetrator of all kinds of evil things. He ran brothels, gambling houses, opium dens, and even smuggled salt. There was nothing he wouldn't do.

None of this matters.

The key point is that Feng Batian did not give any filial respect to Lu Xiangsheng.

The reason why Lu Xiangsheng was so active in paving the way for Hu Zhenhua was to tell the people in the city: You poor people, be smart! No matter who enters the county, I, Lu Xiangsheng, will be the boss! Look, I have become close friends with Hu Zhenhua.

In fact, his trick was very effective. Since ancient times, officials have protected each other, and the people were intimidated and dared not say much.

Hu Zhenhua could never tolerate forcing women of good character into prostitution. He shouted angrily,

"Go, bring Feng Batian and Zhou Mancang's granddaughter here!"

Hu Zhenhua jumped off the tank, helped the old man up, and shouted into the microphone,

"Fellow villagers, if you have any grievances, speak out loudly! I, Hu Zhenhua, will take care of it for you!"

Lu Xiangsheng had a gloomy face and stared coldly at the people on both sides of the road, warning them not to talk nonsense!

Lan Shian noticed his expression, slapped him and shouted,

"What the hell are you staring at? The people are all our brothers and sisters!"

Hu Zhenhua came back to his senses and stared at Lu Xiangsheng with a smile.

"Feng Batian has committed many evil deeds. Are you backing him up?"

Lan Shian waved his hand, and two soldiers came forward and hung him on the tank barrel.

Lu Xiangsheng was very anxious and shouted,

"Chairman, I can help you quickly stabilize the situation. Captain Liu Xiping is my in-law, and I can persuade him to pledge allegiance to you!"

The subtext is: If you kill me, Liu Xiping will definitely fight to the death!

Hu Zhenhua looked at him with contempt.

"Threatening me? You're not worthy!"

His face suddenly turned murderous and he shouted,

"Order Xiao Ke's troops to move and intimidate Liu Xiping. Tell him clearly that I want to deal with Lu Xiangsheng. If he dares, go ahead and start a fight!"

"Yes!"

Hu Zhenhua picked up the microphone, changed his expression, and said with a smile,

"Do you know where my contempt for the reactionaries comes from?"

Hu Zhenhua said with a heavier tone,

"It comes from you! The people are the main force driving social progress! Long live the people!"

Carter's three views were refreshed again. Hu Zhenhua's shamelessness was beyond his imagination!

Without strong military power, do you dare to deal with Lu Xiangsheng?

Xiao Ke personally drove the tank, rumbling forward, ready to deal with Liu Xiping's troops.

Hu Zhenhua climbed onto the tank roof, clenched his fists, and shouted,

"Long live the people! Long live the people!"

Lan Shi'an was very scared. At this chaotic time, only one bullet would take Chairman Hu's life.

Lan Shian quickly ordered people to climb up and form a human wall to protect Lao Hu.

The common people were infected and started shouting too.

Lu Xiangsheng was frightened by the shouting of the crowd.

The shouts contained the people’s anger, unwillingness, and joy!

When people are united, they can move mountains!

The will of the people has become a torrent that no one can stop.

After Xiao Ke's troops passed by, the people immediately shouted,

"God, I want to report this! Lu Xiangsheng forcibly confiscated 300 kilograms of rice from my family without paying!"

"God, I want to report that Lu Xiangsheng accepted bribes and awarded my silk and satin factory to his relatives!"

……

The crowd is furious!

The common people grabbed whatever was at hand and threw it at the corrupt official.

Lu Xiangsheng's crimes can be described as innumerable.

Seeing the public outrage, Hu Zhenhua picked up the microphone and shouted,

"Now, on behalf of the People's Government, I sentence Lu Xiangsheng to death, to be executed immediately!"

Lan Shi'an immediately ordered his men to let Lu Xiangsheng down, tie his hands and feet, and throw him into the middle of the road.

When the people heard that Lu Xiangsheng was surrounded by people, they threw the things in their hands at him and cheered excitedly.

Lu Xiangsheng could hide from one person, but he couldn't hide from everyone. He shouted in fear,

"I am willing to atone for my sins! I am willing to donate all my property! I am willing to confess to being a corrupt official and a bully!"

But his shouting was useless. Lu Xiangsheng knew that he was doomed to die, and cursed,

"Hu Zhenhua, you bastard, you must die a miserable death. Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go. I want..."

His voice suddenly stopped, replaced by a roar of terror.

The roar of the tanks drowned out his screams. The corrupt officials who abused their power were executed by tanks, and in a way that won the hearts of the people.

Feng Batian, who was captured, witnessed the whole thing and was so scared that he became like a puddle of mud and couldn't even be lifted up!

When the people saw him, they cried out,

"Execute him! Execute him!"

Without waiting for orders from their superiors, the two soldiers lifted Feng Batian up and threw him onto the road.

A few minutes later, Feng Batian followed in Lu Xiangsheng's footsteps.

Carter felt sick and jumped out of the tank and hid in another car.

Hu Zhenhua picked up the microphone and shouted,

"Fellow villagers, please lead the way for us. Tonight, we will round up all the corrupt officials, local tyrants, and bullies! Tomorrow we will have a public trial. Everyone can complain if they have grievances, and seek revenge if they have grudges!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the people shouted,

"I know Liang Paopi's family. He's a loan shark. If you can't pay back your money, he'll force you to sell your children. I don't know how many people in the village have lost their families!"

"I know Yang Mahuang's family. He runs a dyeing factory. The workers work themselves to death all year long, and still owe him money!"

After each citizen finished speaking, several soldiers followed him.

Hu Zhenhua just wanted to have fun, but the actual work was done by Lan Shian.

In an organization, the top leader is responsible for formulating strategy, and the second-in-command is responsible for execution.

Lan Shi'an used tanks as fortresses to divide the county town into eight parts of different sizes, making it impossible for them to connect to each other. Then he concentrated his superior forces to sweep through each area one by one.

When the police chief Ma Sanyan learned that Lu Xiangsheng was crushed into a pulp, he knew that he could not escape death either. He decided to fight to the death and gathered more than 20 close friends to fight back.

In troubled times, there is a term called police and bandits.

There is no clear boundary between the police and the criminals.

After the two sides encountered each other, they fought and half of the group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals were killed, and the rest fled in all directions.

Ma Sanyan managed to escape because he was familiar with the road and hid in the home of a man named Liu Laoshi.

In order to prevent Liu Laoshi from telling on him, Ma Sanyan gave him a lot of warnings before he turned around. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his lower back.

Ma Sanyan turned his head and found that Liu Laoshi was holding the handle of the harpoon, and the tip of the harpoon was piercing his lower back.

He didn't understand how the originally honest and useless guy could dare to attack him!

Isn't he afraid of pistols?

When Liu Laoshi saw him turn around, he pulled out his harpoon and stabbed him twice more.

Ma Sanyan collapsed to the ground and uttered his last words.

"Sheep have horns!"

He often said: The people are like sheep, they can only bleat!

Before his thoughts fell into darkness, Ma Sanyan quickly reviewed his life: when he first put on his police uniform, he was full of vigor and ambition, repeatedly solving cases and earning the reputation of the "three-eyed detective." But at some point, he drifted with the tide, gradually turning evil and becoming the feared three-eyed vicious dog!

Ma Sanyan closed his eyes, and his era came to an end.

When the sun rose from the east, no more gunshots were heard in the county town, and peace was completely restored!
