The untouchables mentioned by Kuang Youhui, that is, these troublemakers, were still confiscating the Xu family.

These people rely on the law to not blame the public and frantically transported the Xu family's property out.

In fact, their main purpose in participating in the riot was indeed just to make a fortune.

Although they spin and raise silkworms, because the teeth shop will not give them a high price, the price increase of raw silk and cotton yarn has nothing to do with them.

They also like to see this opportunity to make a fortune by confiscating the Xu family.

Besides, the clan behind them supports them in doing this, so they feel like they have received an imperial edict and feel that they will not pay any price to do so.

At this time, Kuang Youhui and Qin Daoba and others who were led by this riot had fled to the Wusong River and were preparing to escape by boat.

But at this time, there were no ships by the Wusong River.

"Where is the ship?"

Kuang Youhui was shocked and asked Bao Liang.

Bao Liang also said nervously: "I don't know, I don't know what happened."

But not long after, many people from the East Factory appeared on both sides.

Yang Huan personally walked over with the knife: "I want to escape from the golden cicada?"

Kuang Youhui and Bao Liang, Qin Daoba couldn't help but retreat: "You, why are you so fast?"

“It’s already very slow!”

Yang Huan is telling the truth.

If it weren't for the fact that the gentry in Jiangnan was the actual ruler of the local major clans, they could have quickly mobilized a large number of villagers, with his ability in the East Factory, they would have been able to arrest these people before they made trouble.

Now, the people from the East Factory can only know in advance through the inside line that the leaders such as Kuang Youhui would flee from the Ming Dynasty by boat in advance and first came to Wusong River to wait, so as to prevent these leaders from fleeing.

So, Yang Huan said they were already very slow.

"Catch them all!"

Then, Yang Huan shouted, and suddenly, the people from the East Factory arrested Kuang Youhui and others.

...

"Kill them all, no one left! The chief culprit must have escaped by boat, but I believe that Yang Qitou of the East Factory has taken them, and these rioters here cannot tolerate them!"

At this time, Zhang Tongchang also arrived in Xujiazhuang with the officers and soldiers of the 3000th headquarters of the Guards Battalion, and directly issued an order to suppress these rioters.

In addition, Zhang Tongchang has now replaced Feng Quan as the governor of the Southeast, and has sent orders to the governor Li Zhaohe's troops to block the passage from Suzhou to Songjiang, and also sent orders to Jinshanwei and block the sea route.

Although Li Zhaohe received a warrant from the governor that he would not make any moves, Zhang Tongchang is now the governor and he had to listen.

The Jinshanwei navy naturally did not dare to violate Zhang Tongchang's orders.

After all, the scholars and people in Jiangnan do not care about the court, and the civil and military officials in Jiangnan dare not take the governor sent by the court seriously.

These rioters who are still confiscating the Xu family still do not know that they are about to be suppressed.

But when they came out with food or silk cloth, they saw rows of sparkling officers standing on the road they must pass.

At this moment, these people realized that they had committed a crime and seemed to have caused the official army.

These people began to look back for the leader.

Because many of them actually have no opinions and follow the instructions of the gentry in the clan towns.

So, at this time they need the leader to give them an order.

But they soon found that the leader had disappeared.

So, these rioters began to panic, and they didn't know how to face the sudden appearance of the official army in front of them.

boom!

boom!

boom!

But the official army had already launched an attack at this time.

The cannons fired the cannon first, and the shells overturned like rain, killing and injuring countless rioters.

Then, the officers began to advance and began to shoot muskets.

The dense lead bullets shot out of the barrel, cutting these chaotic people to the ground like cutting wheat.

And these rioters didn't even know how to run away because they had lost their backbone.

After many people were killed and injured, many chaotic people realized that the government troops were suppressing them. They became panicked and began to run around rushing.

But at this time, the workers of the cotton yarn mill, the Xu family's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe's tribe'

These workers and the Xu family members and the Xu family are both locals and are very familiar with the roads in the entire Xujiazhuang, so these people quickly surrounded the important roads everywhere.

In addition, these people are not ruthless to these rioters. After all, these rioters have burned many houses of the tenants and tribesmen along the way, destroyed many mulberry fields and rice fields. Even their relatives and friends died at the hands of these people, so they were all angry.

This also makes these rioters feel like they are surrounded by an iron barrel and cannot escape at all.

At this time, Zhang Tongchang ordered: "The officers and soldiers of the Third Thousand Infantry Headquarters immediately divided into various teams to suppress these rioters!"

"yes!"

Chen Xin, Guo Mu and others replied.

"stop!"

But at this time, Kuang Jihe, a large gentry in Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture, hurried over with a cane and supported by several scholars.

Zhang Tongchang looked back and replied coldly: "Who are you?!"

"This is our Master Kuang, former Minister of Rites of Nanjing, Kuang Dazongbo!"

A scholar answered loudly for Kuang Jihe.

At this time, Qiao Kai from the East Factory came over from behind: "Report to the capital, Yang Qianhu from the East Factory is not here, so it is difficult for the officials to make decisions without authorization, so he has to come to your place."

Zhang Tongchang didn't say anything.

But Kuang Jihe first said to Zhang Tongchang: "I heard from them that you are Zhang Dutang and Zhang Wenzhenggong. How can you kill innocent people indiscriminately? This is contrary to the way of benevolence!"

"These are all troubles and troubles. I am the official who is ordered to suppress it. How can you, the old guy, be suspicious here!"

Zhang Tongchang replied directly.

"you!"

Kuang Jihe was quite angry and pointed at Zhang Tongchang and couldn't speak.

"Your Majesty's secret decree is to kill three thousand by mistake rather than let one go."

Zhang Tongchang said, then shouted: "Dongchang Qiao is available!"

"There is the official!"

Qiao Jiao replied.

"You brought your Dongchang people to the official, immediately circulated the Kuang family to the official, arrested Kuang Jihe for strict trial, and arrested all the Kuang family members. At this time, Kuang Jihe pleaded for these rioters, and it was obvious that he was with these people, and maybe he was the mastermind behind the scenes!"

Zhang Tongchang started talking.

Because Zhu Youxiao's decree to Zhang Tongchang was to authorize him to mobilize all troops in the southeast, and the East Factory was temporarily controlled by him, he directly issued an order to Qiao Kai.

"yes!"

Qiao Gong replied quickly and asked someone to arrest Kuang Jihe.

Kuang Jihe was shocked: "Zhang Dutang! This is a mess! How can you frame me for no reason!"

Zhang Tongchang smiled: "Don't think that I don't know why you suddenly came to stop me for these rioters. In my opinion, it must be because most of these rioters are your tribe members and villagers. You also make money by relying on their raw silk and cotton yarn, including their rent. Now that I want to kill all these rioters, you will naturally care, and you are worried that there will not be many tribe members who can give you raw silk and cotton yarn and food in the future!"

"You are talking nonsense! I just don't want to sit idly by and watch you kill innocent people indiscriminately, and I can't stand the cruel acts you and others!"

Kuang Jihe roared. He did not expect that the court would violate the principle of law and not blame the masses, and sent officers and soldiers from the Guards to directly suppress these civilians. Although he did not care about the life and death of these civilians, many of these civilians who caused trouble were his hometown brave tenants. If these people were killed by the official army, the Kuang family would naturally have fewer people who could exploit, so they hurried to stop Zhang Tongchang.

Of course, Kuang Jihe naturally would not admit it so now.

"The capital, the officials are one step late! These leaders are caught in trouble, one of them is named Kuang Youhui, who he confessed to was the legitimate grandson of the Minister of Rites of Nanjing."

At this time, Yang Huan came over.
