Chapter 853 Break with the old times

At this point, the time has come to see the picture.

As a result, the judicial officials and officials of the three divisions were dispatched in an all-round way, and together with the soldiers of the Yanyun Corps, who had been transferred to command by Su Yonglin, they began a large-scale arrest of Shandong scholars.

This time, the scale of the arrest was quite large. The judicial officials led the soldiers to completely surround the gathering places and residences of the Confucian scholars.

No matter how the terrified Confucian scholars resisted, the soldiers swarmed up without leaving their hands, and regardless of whether they resisted or not, they went up to knock them to the ground with the wooden sticks they were carrying, tied them up, and arrested them.

No matter how much the Confucian scholars resisted, they were no match for the soldiers, not to mention that Su Yonglin dispatched [-] soldiers to initiate action. Although there were a large number of Confucian scholars, they did not reach [-], and the number was far less than that of the soldiers.

Under such circumstances, the well-trained soldiers charged quickly, rushing the Confucian scholars into pieces with lightning speed.

The Confucian scholars were in chaos, and they fled in all directions. Some ran into the street, some ran into the house, and some even wanted to jump into a well or climb a tree to avoid arrest.

It was useless, the soldiers ran faster and soon knocked the fleeing Confucian scholars to the ground and arrested them.

And Confucian scholars who jumped into a well or climbed a tree couldn't escape. They were carried up or dragged down by the soldiers, and fell to the ground and rolled around in pain.

In order to avoid arrest, some Confucian scholars living in houses or hotels blocked the door with heavy objects to prevent the soldiers from entering, and then tried to escape by jumping out of the window.

The soldiers who were blocked outside chose to break in through the window, crushed the scholar in the room directly to the ground, tied them up, and arrested them.

When things got to this point, the Confucian scholars finally realized that the court no longer tolerated them, and the emperor no longer tolerated them.

They felt fear, felt a deep fear of the future.

They cried out loudly, or confessed their mistakes, or begged for mercy, or insisted that the soldiers would not offend these honorable scholars, but what awaited them was only a ruthless blow.

At this point, what is the point of being a reader or not being a reader?

One after another Confucian scholars were arrested and brought to justice, and one after another distinguished scholar lowered their proud heads.

Their era is over, and the future does not belong to them.

On the evening of June [-] in the third year of Hongwu, the prison in Zhongdu City was full and could not hold nearly ten thousand Confucian scholars who were arrested, so a large number of Confucian scholars were escorted by the army to the barracks outside the city to be detained, awaiting the results of their disposal.

Kong Maojie, Jiang Chengyue and Shen Ge stood in front of Su Yonglin, waiting for Su Yonglin's final decision.

"What else is there to hesitate? Immediately carry out screening, but if the family commits corruption crimes, they will be executed and sentenced according to law. At present, no crime has been found, so ask about their origin, search their homes, arrest them, and escort them all to Jishi Prefecture. !
Remember, this is the revolutionary stage, and it is a life-and-death struggle. For these people, no matter how pitiful they are, remember that they are high-class scholars who grew up on the blood and sweat of the common people, and there is no possibility of reconciliation with us. .

Therefore, to deal with them, only fight to the end, clear up to the end, and never compromise!I demand that all the local revival associations in Shandong take action, the village peasant associations, the village peasant associations, and the villagers' self-defense force all mobilize!
Tell them that now they should do what they should do for their suffering brothers and sisters who are being oppressed and exploited!Break with all the filth and filth of the past! "

Su Yonglin clenched his fists and ordered, Kong Maojie and the other three immediately took the order.

The decisive moment of the revolution has come, Su Yonglin decided to launch a dimensionality reduction attack on the Confucian scholar group, and launched the second and real purge of Shandong.

It launched a comprehensive attack on the Confucian family, the landlord family and the rich businessman family, carried out a comprehensive cleaning of Shandong, and completely completed the transformation of Shandong.

He has tolerated too much for this place where he started, and this time, he will never tolerate it.

Shandong Confucian scholars can be said to be the most intolerable group of people in his regime. He wants to fully promote the ideas of the Renaissance Society and replace Confucianism as the official guiding ideology of the Ming Dynasty. This group of people who master Confucianism must be Shovel clean.

In comparison, the Yanyun clan, the foreign clan clan, the landlords and gentry, the old bureaucrats and the old officers, etc. are all skin problems, which are only visible to the naked eye. .

Ideological erosion is the real problem.

It's time to take the revival action to the end.

This is a blow to the old era, it is a break with the old era, and it is also a self-cleaning and innovation of the Ming regime. It will sweep away all the parasites brought in from the old era, and go into battle lightly to face the future.

At the same time, Su Yonglin asked the Supervision Department of the Renaissance Society to take action and focus on his own people.

In this action, anyone who shows signs of something wrong will also be hit mercilessly.

Compared with external enemies, internal ghosts are more abominable and terrifying. Su Yonglin has a deep understanding of this.

Su Yonglin's decisive actions shocked not only the group of Confucian scholars who were arrested, but also the remnants of the Shandong faction who hid behind them and fanned the flames and tried to reverse the court's decision.

As soon as Su Yonglin made his move, he swept them all away like the autumn wind sweeping leaves.

After Kong Zheng and other Shandong bosses were dealt with, some of the remaining Shandong bureaucrats were not dealt with for the time being. They were not reconciled to the failed situation and tried to rescue the bosses and restore the situation.

At least keep the basic plate of the Shandong department.

So they tried every means to fool the Confucian scholars to rush to the front, hiding behind themselves, trying to take advantage of the situation, thinking that no matter how vicious the court was and how decisive the emperor was, they would not dare to attack the Shandong Confucian scholar group.

Because there are too many people, and since ancient times there is a tradition of not blaming the public, it is difficult for the emperor to start with so many Confucian scholars, and in the end he can only let it go.

But they did not expect the emperor to be so decisive, and their actions were also detected by the Skynet Army spies.

When it was time to close the net, judicial officials immediately led soldiers to the residences of these Shandong officials and arrested them one after another. A wave of purges wiped out almost all Shandong officials in the DPRK and China.

There are only two or three kittens left, because they really have no status, they are very honest, and they did not make mistakes, so they were let go.

Of course, they won't have any more political achievements.

On June 25th, the arrests of Shandong Clan and Shandong Confucian scholars gradually came to an end.

The arrested Shandong scholars and officials who were not pardoned all began the process of escorting Jishi Prefecture for distribution.

What awaits them will be extremely difficult environment and extremely heavy construction work.

For the future westward expedition plan, Su Yonglin needs to build Jishi Prefecture into an important advance base, which requires a lot of infrastructure, which is obviously impossible with local human and material resources.

These exiled laborers will become the main force for the construction of Jishi Prefecture.

At the same time, the three departments of the Judiciary, which were freed up, also carried out the purge of the foreign clan and Yanyun clan.

According to the clues and information obtained after the large-scale interrogation, as well as the materials submitted by the criminal officials of the Shandong department in order to reduce the punishment, the Third Judicial Division identified a group of criminals of the Yanyun and foreign ethnic groups, and arrested and arrested them. trial.

For example, Yelu Yixian, Yelu Hu Dugu, Sun Yixin and others who were bitten out before.

These people are the backbone members of the Yanyun clan and the foreign clan clan. They are young and energetic. They also had certain official positions in the Jin Kingdom and possessed administrative skills. They are the basics of these two factions.

And after a group of backbone members represented by them were taken by the Third Division of Judiciary and interrogated, the forces of the Yanyun clan and the foreign clan clan also suffered a very serious blow.

For example, the Huo Jianbai family of the Yanyun clan boss was uprooted by Su Yonglin. Although Huo Jianbai himself had no major sins, he was implicated by his nephew Hoger and was taken down.

Another bigwig, Han Shiling, was also implicated by the clan, and was taken down from official positions and lost his political status. He also had to serve a prison sentence for accepting a gift from his nephew.

The Yanyun faction suffered a heavy blow, the upper and middle ranks were deposed and taken down in large numbers, and the faction forces were almost at a loss.

At this point, the entire army of the Shandong Department was wiped out, and the Yanyun Department was completely devastated.

For the time being, the only ones who can maintain their power are the foreign clans.
