Chapter 2 Chapter Two

In the autumn of 1926, the Northern Expedition army captured Wuhan, and the army of the Beiyang warlords was crushed like fallen leaves by the autumn wind.The voice of revolution quickly spread throughout Hubei.In order to adapt to the rapidly developing revolutionary situation and lead the peasant movement more effectively, the party organizations and peasant associations in the two counties of Huangma were changed from secret to open, and the special branch of the party moved into the county seat immediately. After the party organizations and peasant associations were disclosed to the masses, they immediately led the peasants to carry out a large-scale anti-imperialist and anti-feudal revolutionary struggle, and an unprecedented upsurge of the rural revolution quickly appeared in the jute area-"Down with the local tyrants and evil gentry!" "Down with corrupt officials!" Pollutants!" "Down with imperialism!" "Abolish feudal forces!" "All power to the peasant association!" and other revolutionary slogans, together with revolutionary songs, sang joyously like larks in the ancient and fresh land of Huang'an and Macheng above.

Listening to the slogans and songs, the local tyrants and evil gentry gritted their teeth like mice.They mobilized one after another, secretly invited the "teacher" and organized the "Red Spear Club", each of them declared that they would fight against the farmers' association to protect their family property with arms. Blood for blood, tooth for tooth.The farmers picked up their hoes, poles, and harpoons, ready to fight to defend their newly acquired rights to survive.The revolution has come to the point where swords meet. Wang Jian and the others were gearing up in Huang'an, but Xu Ziqing, the head of the farmers' association at the Chengma Guild Hall in Macheng, had already received the news that the local tyrants and evil gentry had begun to challenge.

"Hurry up, Dingzhenyu is instructing his henchmen to smash the farmers' association in Luojiahe!" The visitor gasped. "what?" Wang Shu, who was talking to Xu Ziqing, stood up suddenly, turned to Xu Ziqing, Hu Jingshan and the others and said, "I suggest an emergency meeting be held immediately, and we will deal with this tiger first." It turns out that this dingzhen fish is known as "a tiger in the north of Macheng", with 120 mu of land.Relying on his own wealth and power, he was extremely dissatisfied with the farmers association.He also felt that he was Wang Shusheng's real uncle, so he didn't dare to do anything to him.Therefore, on December 20, 1926, when people were rushing to the temple fair to buy new year's goods, he ordered his lackeys to destroy the office of the Luojiahe branch of the Dahepu Township Farmers' Association and tear up the slogans posted by the farmers' association. , The reactionary arrogance is very arrogant.

After hearing the report from the visitor, according to Wang Shusheng's suggestion, Xu Ziqing, Hu Jingshan and others immediately held an emergency meeting. It was already late at this time, but within an hour, everyone woke up. "Sound of the tree, what do you think we should do? It's obvious, he is your uncle, we will do whatever you say." Wang Shusheng almost roared: "Even the king and I can't do it! Whoever wants to sabotage the revolution, we can use the knife!" In less than ten minutes, the Peasant Association of the Riding Horse Association issued the first battle order in history: catch the tench immediately and put down the arrogance of the reactionary landlords!

It was already midnight when the war order was issued. As soon as the members heard that the district peasant association was going to arrest the dingzhenyu, they were all gearing up, beaming with joy, and quickly picked up knives, spears, black guns, hoes and poles. "Boom! Boom! Boom—" Three gongs sounded, and in the vast night, the lanterns and torches of more than 2,000 peasants immediately illuminated the sky. They drove into the Luojia River in a mighty manner, and quickly surrounded the high-walled compound of Dingzhenyu. . "Open the door—" "Open the door!"

"Break it open!" "Break it open!" Hearing the roar like a flood, the tench fish was already frightened.He didn't even dare to get out of the quilt, so he just asked the servants to guard the door: "Don't let them break in." After speaking, he covered his head with the quilt, not knowing what to do. But the door on this side still wouldn't open.People are a little anxious, and they don't know what to do. "Rongkun, come on!" Wang Shusheng gave a wink, and Liao Rongkun, a tenant of the Ding family who had been a soldier for a few days, led a dozen young farmers with swords on their backs and entered over the wall.

"It's not good, master, they climbed over the wall and came in!" "Ah - shoot! Shoot!" Before Ding Zhenyu's servants could find the bolt, Liao Rongkun and the others had rushed upstairs.Liao Rongkun broke into Dingzhenyu's bedroom with a stride like a tiger predating, and dragged him out of the bed.At this time, Dingzhenyu lost all his arrogance in the daytime, knelt on the ground barefoot and single-clothed, begging for mercy repeatedly: "Please forgive me, please forgive me! Send a message to the tree voice, I will never dare to Already!" "Now you know how to beg for mercy? No way!" Liao Rongkun picked up the trembling dingzhenyu like an eagle catching a chicken, and threw him in front of the eagerly waiting farmers.

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous.Seeing the dingzhen fish thrown on the ground, the angry farmers rushed forward like a frying pan, punching and kicking each other, wishing to beat him to pieces. At this time, Xu Ziqing pushed aside the crowd, walked up to Ding Zhenyu, stopped the angry crowd, and said to everyone: "Stop beating. Stop beating. We have bitter complaints, and we have grievances. What should we do?" We, the peasant association, have our own way to deal with the tench fish." "kill him!" "Kill him to death!" The angry crowd roared loudly and wanted to kill the tench fish!

"Ding Zhenyu ran rampant in the village and oppressed the people. He did all kinds of crimes, and he deserved death. I wanted to kill him too, but we now have a peasant association, which is also a first-level organization. Since it is an organization, it must have discipline. Even if you want to beat him There must be an explanation for death, right?" After Xu Ziqing said this, the angry crowd calmed down a little.At this moment, a stupefied young man rushed out of the crowd, holding a hoe in his hand, aiming to smash Dingzhenyu's head down as soon as he came up.Xu Ziqing supported his body, and the hoe deviated from the dingzhenyu's bald head and fell on the bluestone in the yard, bursting out a few sparks.

"You bastard! In the past, you dominated the sky, the land, and my fiancée to prevent me from getting married or starting a family! Now it's time for me to take revenge! I'm going to chop off that old bastard of yours with a hoe! I'm going to chop off your old dog's head—" As he spoke and cursed, the stunned young man wanted to rush forward again. Everyone knows that the fiancée of the young man in Lengtou is Miss Xiao from Dengjiawan.The girl is in her early twenties, but Ding Zhenyu insists on not letting her get married.Therefore, seeing the young men with lengtou want to charge again, the crowd couldn't stop rushing forward again, and all the torches were thrown at them, trying to burn the tench to death.

Xu Ziqing was in a hurry, so he ordered Wang Shusheng and others to quickly tie up the dingzhenyu and escort it to the peasant association first. Ding Zhenyu escorted away, but the angry crowd refused to leave for a long time.It wasn't until the time when the rooster crowed that they came into groups of three or four, all of them gritted their teeth and left the Ding's compound with gritted teeth. "If you catch a tench, you will tear yourself apart with the landlord." The flames of the revolutionary struggle burned more vigorously in Macheng."Tubob" from all over the country were arrested one after another, paraded in the streets, fined, and sent to the county "Macheng Farmers' Association to collect five poisons" (referring to local tyrants and evil gentry Wang Zhiting, Zhu Bishan, Wang Mianzhi, Fang Xiaoting, Yu Ziyou, etc.), and became a hot topic in Wuhan's progressive newspapers. topic. But when Xu Ziqing, Wang Shusheng and others escorted Ding Zhenyu to the county, county magistrate Liu and interrogator Xu Cheng refused to take him into custody. It was the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the streets and alleys of the county were covered with the slogans of the peasant association and hung all kinds of colored flags.People from better-off families put new clothes on their children.The children were laughing, running to and fro among the hurrying adults.Occasionally there are a few firecrackers, which add to the joy of the coming New Year. Xu Ziqing and the others walked all the way, and it was noon when they arrived at the county government.When he found Magistrate Liu, he seemed to be about to go out.Looking up and seeing Xu Ziqing and the others, he was stunned for a moment unconsciously, and then said: "How can you arrest people casually?" This day, the county magistrate Liu was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, with his hair parted in the middle, and was tall and standing there. There is also a feeling of getting ahead.But seeing that Xu Ziqing and the others were silent, and didn't care that Ding Zhenyu was giving him a wink, they blushed and said to everyone: "The peasant association must have the king's law. What kind of law is Ding Zhenyu breaking?" Is it? Let it go, let it go. If you have something to say, speak slowly." After speaking, he was about to step forward to untie the dingzhenyu. "Wait!" Wang Shu yelled, and the people around him rushed up. "What? You don't even listen to my county magistrate?" "It's not that he didn't listen to your lord, but that Dingzhenyu deserved what he deserved." Since he wanted to let Dingzhenyu go, Xu Ziqing stepped forward and said calmly. "who are you?" "Who am I? Huh, I'm the head of the farmers' association in the riding area." "Why do you want to catch a tengu?" "He smashed the office of the peasant association, tore up the slogans posted by the peasant association. He oppressed the people, forced rent and debt, occupied the women of the peasants, and ran rampant in the countryside..." "Okay, okay, since he is so bad, you can send him to the judge." Before Xu Ziqing could finish speaking, County Magistrate Liu quickly waved his hands and said a word without even looking at everyone. Turning around and entering the office, with a bang, even the door was closed. "What should I do?" Wang Shusheng was a little anxious. "We'll talk about it after seeing the judge." Xu Ziqing looked confident.In fact, he was also in a mess.It is said that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperate, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperate.But in fact, neither "cooperate" nor "work".In the final analysis, the Kuomintang and the local tyrants and evil gentry wear crotch pants.But today he intends to send the tench fish to where he should go.If you don't care, the self-owned farmers' association will hold up the sky. So, after seeing the tricky-looking interrogator Xu Cheng, Xu Ziqing only asked one sentence: "We caught dingzhenyu, and the county magistrate wants us to send it to you. Do you want to accept him or not?" Judge Xu Cheng was originally a flattered character, and just now he answered the phone call from the county magistrate. How did you explain it? After receiving Xu Ziqing's words, he said: "So what if you accept it, so what if you don't accept it? Hmm!" Xu Ziqing was tepid.Seeing that Wang Shusheng was about to speak, he stepped forward and said: "If you accept it, we will deal with the result; if you don't accept it, we will have our own way to deal with it." "Hey, do you still have a solution? I won't accept this person today. Let's see how you deal with it." "Okay. Then we will take people away." "Let's go, let's go, the farther the better, don't let me smell the fart again." "you--" "Forget it, let's go." "Hmph? A small bird farmers' association is really nothing like a black hat." Having said that, after seeing Xu Ziqing and his group walking away, Judge Xu Cheng still dialed County Magistrate Liu. "Hello——Magistrate Liu? I'm—" "Come on, tell me, where is the tench fish?" "I let them take it." "Where did you take it?" "I guess I'm going to the farmer's association." "Stupid, stupid! How can you let them take him to the peasant association! That's not the same as sending him to death." "No, can't it?" "It's not a fart. Do you know what a peasant association is? What are they afraid of? Well, how can this save Zili and them?" "County magistrate, I, I'm confused, I'm confused..." When the county magistrate said this, the trial judge was indeed a little scared.Although the tench was the first to be caught, it was the last to be sent to the county.These days, the county magistrate is busy with Wang Zili and the others.Unexpectedly, a tench fish came.But the county magistrate was impatient with his long-winded words, and stopped him before the nonsense was over, and then said: "Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense. Go and discuss it with Shunqing and the others to see what can be done." ? Remember, Zili and the others must be rescued, and Zhenyu must be kept. This is not just a matter of a few of them, but a major event related to the survival of the party and the country. Do you understand?" "Understood, understood. Don't worry, magistrate, I'll go here right now." When he put down the phone, Judge Xu Cheng was already sweating profusely, but before he had time to wipe it off, he raised his legs and ran towards Shunqing.And this person called "Shunqing" by the county magistrate is Li Shunqing, the lackey of Tao Xincheng, the chairman of the Macheng Chamber of Commerce, and the chairman of the agent association.He was a little gloating when he "received the five poisons" earlier.It deserves it, the fucking President Li doesn't look down on me, so I know I have a "satisfaction", now I can't do it, right?But after a few days of unhappiness, Tao Xincheng had something to say to him. "Shunqing, Zili and the others have been arrested, do you know?" "Everyone in the city knows that Wuhan has been published in the newspaper." "Yes, Wuhan has been published in the newspaper." "I think they deserve it too." "What? You deserve it, what does it mean to deserve it? Without them, you'd be farting?" Li Shunqing thought to herself, if I didn't catch them, I wouldn't be able to get farts, so I might as well catch them.But he didn't dare to say anything. Didn't he rely on the support of the president to get to where he is today? Tao Xincheng saw Li Shunqing's careful thinking at a glance.So, with a smile, he put the small smoke pot in his hand on the table of the Eight Immortals beside him, and said, "Don't be tempted, Shunqing, I know what you think. But, this is an opportunity, even the county magistrate Liu They were all alarmed." As he spoke, he deliberately paused, motioning for Li Shunqing to come closer.When Shunqing came over, he stretched his body on the grand teacher's chair, covered Li Shunqing's ears, and then said: "It's the news from Wuhan, he wants to release him. County Magistrate Liu wants us to do some work. Do you understand?" ?” "Understood. But how do I work?" "Idiot, what do you want to eat with your head?" Before Li Shunqing could figure it out, a person ran in quickly at the door and said to Tao Xincheng, "President, they sent the tench fish to the county farmers' association." gone." "Ah - what about them?" "I don't know, it's probably still in the old place." "Troublesome. Now it's troublesome!" Tao Xincheng knew that the "old place" was actually the place of the farmers' association, and he picked it up from the farmers' association to arrange for them.But the place has been changed to a more comfortable place, but the people who take care of it are still members of the peasant association.This side has not been resolved yet, alas, there is another tench.How the hell is this year going? "President—" "you say." "I think Luo Biantou will tell Battalion Commander Yan to dispatch troops." "No, no, no. Did you forget? When Song Zili and the others came, didn't County Magistrate Liu just want to mobilize the guards? But what happened? They almost shot the mud legs!" "then what should we do?" Seeing that the chairman Tao Xincheng disagreed with his "ingenious plan", the acting chairman Li Shunqing didn't want to say anything more.However, he knew about the confrontation between the peasant association and the guard.It happened to be a sunny day, and the county magistrate dispatched a security team as soon as the district officials sent the people up.Originally, I wanted to fend them off, don't be so mean, catch everything.But the mud-legged members of the peasant association were not afraid at all, their faces were shining brightly by the sun.Instead of leaving, they threatened that if they dared to release him, they would burn down the county government office.Later, they had no choice but to take in what they called the "five poisons".And as soon as the "five poisons" were collected, the county magistrate was busy.Damn, it seems that the world is really about to change. "Shunqing." "Shunqing is here." "Just as you said, you go to Luo Biantou and go with him to meet Commander Yan. If there is any movement here, he will send troops." "Then what should we do here?" "I'm going to meet Xu Chengshen right now." "Don't dare, I'm here." Tao Xincheng just wanted to put away the hookah, but the judge Xu Cheng entered the door dripping with sweat.After entering the door, he didn't care what happened, just sat down on another grand teacher's chair, and said, "It's really hard for me to find it! The county master lost his temper. They even brought the tench fish." "It's easy to talk, easy to talk. You, let's have a pot first, and we'll talk slowly when we're done." Once the place is settled here, Tao Xincheng said to Li Shunqing: "Go ahead, let's talk slowly here. " "Okay, then I'll go." Saying that, Li Shunqing nodded to the two of them and went out. The reason why Xu Ziqing told the county magistrate that he was the head of the peasant association in Chengma District was to see if the county magistrate still recognized him as the vice chairman of the county peasant association.Sure enough, within a few days of the establishment of the peasant association, he didn't even know the vice chairman.It can be seen that his thinking is reasonable. With the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the pork cannot be pasted on the sheep, and it is still double-layered. "The county magistrate doesn't care, and the trial judge doesn't accept it, so what should we do?" At this time, Xu Ziqing and Wang Shusheng had already arrived at the residence of Cai Jihuang, the secretary of the county Kuomintang and the secretary of the special branch of the Macheng Communist Party.As soon as he entered the door, Wang Shusheng hurriedly asked Cai Jihuang without saying a word. "Then we have our own way, don't we?" Cai Jihuang passed the words to Liu Wenwei and Liu Xiangming who were sitting there. Only then did Wang Shusheng greet them. "I haven't seen you for a few days, but I still can't change your monkey temper." "It's not like you people sitting in the yamen. We are anxious, but not as anxious as Ding Zhenyu and the others." Holding Liu Wenwei's hand, Wang Shusheng's words made everyone laugh. After a short chat, Cai Jihuang said to Liu Xiangming, chairman of the county peasant association: "In the name of the peasant association, arrest Li Shunqing and Luo Biantou. It doesn't hurt, let's kill their pawns first." "That's what I mean too. As for Tao Xincheng and Xu Cheng, I'll talk about it later. Clean up Li and Luo first, and then deal with Ding Zhenyu and Wang Zili." "I agree." "I agree." "I agree." Finally, Wang Shusheng said, "The sooner the better." Before dawn on the second day, thousands of peasants from Magang rushed to the outside of the yard of Li Shunqing, the president of the agent association, which was not very conspicuous in the county. man, he was tied up a lot. "Tell me, what did you and Luo head do yesterday?" "Look...find, look for Yan..., Battalion Commander Yan has gone." "What are you looking for him for?" "Call him, tell him to send troops." "Okay, I still want to collude with Commander Yan. I'll tell you to eat some old punches first." While speaking, Li Shunqing howled like a pig. "What? What?" Before Li Shunqing finished howling, a somewhat complacent judge Xu Cheng appeared in the crowd.Everyone looked back, and at some point, soldiers with big guns were already standing around them.The bayonet of the gun stabbed, and the handle was shining coldly in the winter sky.Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then began to whisper in a bit of bewilderment. "How is it? Are you not proud?" Seeing the whispering voices in the crowd, Xu Cheng stood on the stone table in Li Shunqing's courtyard even more proudly, and said loudly to the black crowd: "Everyone Folks, listen up, under the order of County Magistrate Liu, the judge hereby informs you that Wuhan received a call on the 2nd day, and from the date of receiving the call, we will start the 'peasant association', and your peasant association is illegal. It can’t be done anymore. Therefore, people can’t be arrested anymore, they can’t be beaten anymore, and they can’t be killed anymore. But what about the people who were arrested before?” At this point, Judge Xu Cheng deliberately paused.You could hear the crowd starting to growl.Judge Xu Cheng smiled slightly, and glanced at the battalion commander Yan who was not far away, and was about to continue talking about his conspiracy with Tao Xincheng, when suddenly he was pushed down and fell to the ground sprawled.Before he could understand what was going on, a pistol was unequivocally pressed against his head. Almost at the same time, Cai Jihuang jumped onto the stone table and said to the poor farmers in the four townships: "Listen, folks, we will not be fooled by them. Everything they say and do has only one purpose. It is to release the tench fish, to release Wang Zili, and to let them ride on our necks to shit and pee again. Folks, can we agree?" "cannot--" "Then what shall we do?" "Kill the tench fish!" "Kill the prince!" "Kill the judge!" The crowd responded, yelling and rushing forward. "Bang—bang—" Two crisp gunshots pierced the sky unexpectedly. Only then did people realize that there was a battalion commander Yan.Battalion Commander Yan walked straight towards Cai Jihuang.Before the gun was inserted into the holster, a gloved hand stretched out, smiling all over his face: "I admire! Admire! Brother Jihuang, Yan is really admired!" But Cai Jihuang didn't hold his hand. Instead, he said coldly: "Brother Yan Zheng, you are the commander of the garrison and battalion. You should not interfere with local affairs. Since you have already come, remembering the friendship between you and me working together in the same place, there is only one sentence, take away Brother, do yourself a favor." "Where is that--Brother Ji Huang misunderstood. Since someone Yan came forward, there is a reason for him to come forward. I can take it away. But there is a sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not?" "Let's talk. They are all seven-foot men, so why bother to cover up." "Okay! With your words, Yan can't think of himself-excuse me, is the peasant association reasonable?" "What do you mean?" "You understand—" Battalion Commander Yan said at this moment, but there was no smile on his face.Then, he said slowly: "Everything has to be reasonable. What's wrong with Shunqing? Just because you saw me, you are going to shoot him? What's wrong with Xu Chengshen? Isn't it just a microphone? You don't want to let him go." Yes? Then let me catch it together, and I will give you the whole world, how about it?" After hearing what Commander Yan said, Cai Jihuang laughed.Immediately, he said to Commander Yan: "Is this what you said? Regardless of Li Shunqing and the judge, if you want, as long as I send a word, you can immediately shoot your gun." The crowd who rushed forward and back took a look, then turned to Commander Yan and said: "You can do it yourself, brother Yan Zheng. 'The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard'. Otherwise..." Seeing that Cai Jihuang spoke earnestly, and seeing that the surging crowd had already surrounded him and Cai Jihuang densely, shouting continuously, so before Cai Jihuang could say anything, Battalion Commander Yan turned around and was about to leave without raising his head. "Give him a way, let him go—" Cai Jihuang yelled, and then Battalion Commander Yan ran despondently along the path that the crowd evaded, without looking back. Then, Cai Jihuang announced: In the name of the County Farmers Association, Li Shunqing, the chairman of the agent association, was brought in for trial, and Luo Piantou, the "chairman of the labor union", was arrested!From today, stop the county magistrate and trial judge! The crowd suddenly boiled, shouting like a wave, impacting the sky and the earth of Macheng County. Macheng has been dismissed as county magistrate, what shall we do?The news of Macheng spread to Huang'an County.After punishing Li Jieren, Ruan Chunqing, Zhang Yingting, Li Shixian and Shi Heizi, 19 tyrants and tyrants who had committed the most heinous crimes, Wang Jian, already a special commissioner of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee, set his sights on Longtan Temple. Longtan Temple is a large temple located on a sandbar in the Daoshui River.Surrounded by clear water, the temple is elegant and quiet.At first glance, it is really a good place for self-cultivation.The morning bell every day can vibrate the spiritual birds, flutter in the rays of the sun, and land on the sandbar.The scenery is beautiful, just like a clear sky.However, if you take a step forward, you can see a wall more than ten feet high, almost covered with moss and covered with vines, but there are nine-section thunder, mountain-splitting guns, white dragon guns, etc. in the four corners, which are very chilling. s things. "The monks are compassionate," but the head monk of Longtan Temple colluded with the county government to occupy more than 900 acres of fertile land around the temple and employ more than 100 long-term workers.Both rent and lend.Wearing a religious cloak, fighting against the power of the government, oppressing the people, and harming the good people.Whoring and staying with prostitutes, jealousy.Playing tricks and playing ghosts, doing all kinds of evil.The nearby peasant masses gritted their teeth with hatred, but they were afraid of "God", so they dared to be angry and dared not speak out. One morning in March 1927, Wang Jian and Xia Guoni, who was also a special commissioner, came to the archway shop near Longtan Temple on purpose.As soon as they entered the office of the peasant association, Wang Guoxiang, Wang Libo and others who were working here stopped talking, and hurriedly offered tea to let them sit down and asked how they were. "What were you talking about just now? We heard the movement from afar, why didn't you say it again? Are we outsiders?" As soon as he sat down, Wang Jian asked everyone with a smile. "Where is that? We just said... oh, it's all good deeds done by those bald donkeys!" A quick-talking farmer's association cadre said quickly, and then looked at Wang Jian and Xia Guoni who were a little more alert . "What's the matter?" They both asked almost at the same time. "What's the matter? Those bald donkeys are harming people again!" As she spoke, the female cadre burst into tears. "Yes or no--?" "Yes, it's the bald donkey who is in charge. Last night, while Wang Laosan's guest was digging yams at the sandbar, she was given to... well, that woman has been married for less than a month. You say, you say this Is the old bald donkey still fucking human?" Hearing the farmers' grievances, Wang Jian quickly exchanged glances with Xia Guoni.Then he said to the cadres of the peasant associations present: "The 'Songbu Missionary Plan' must be known to everyone. There is nothing to say, Longtan Temple is the second Songbu Church!" At this time, the farmers heard that there were people coming from the province, and they rushed to the yard of the farmers association office.I don't know what Wang Jian and the others are talking about, but the inside and outside of the room are crowded with people. Seeing the enthusiasm of the crowd so high, Wang Jian put aside the topic of Longtan Temple temporarily, got up from his seat, walked to the center of the courtyard, and said happily to everyone: "Everyone knows that the bully landlord Ding Zhen was arrested in Macheng." Yu, Wang Zili, let alone the county magistrate and judges. Our peasants in Huang'an County, under the leadership of the party, organized a peasant association to punish local tyrants, evil gentry, and corrupt officials like Li Jieren, Ruan Chunqing, and Zhang Yingting. We fought resolutely and won great victories. When we were in Wuhan, Comrade Dong Biwu praised our Huang'an County and gave instructions for future work. Facts have proved that the local tyrants and evil gentry are nothing special, they can only write a few There are a few dog legs. As long as we all unite and work together, we can defeat them with hoes and poles! Now that the struggle has begun, we must persevere to the end. I hope we can continue to work hard and make new achievements. Greater achievements!" As soon as Wang Jian's words fell, the members of the peasant association raised their arms and shouted revolutionary slogans. At this time, a farmer who had been beaten unreasonably by Jueming, the head monk of Longtan Temple, stood up and asked Wang Jian: "Is the head monk of Longtan Temple considered a gentry, and should we be defeated?" Wang Jian didn't expect him to ask this question, because he hadn't planned how to solve Longtan Temple.But when the farmer asked him, he didn't think about it, and said with certainty casually: "Forget it, count it as a gentry!" As soon as Longtan Temple was mentioned, the farmers immediately became a sensation—— "Are they gentry, or are they gentry!" "Let them do it for a few more years, and we won't even be able to wear pants!" "You know? The donkey ruined Wang Laosan's guest yesterday!" "It's not bad! Let's go, go to Longtan Temple to settle the score!" "Kill the old bald donkey and burn that temple!" All of a sudden, the farmers spontaneously picked up their hoes and poles, and flocked to Longtan Temple in the center of the sandbar like a tide.The people who were working in the fields, when they heard that they were going to capture Jueming's old bald donkey, they all picked up a farm tool as a weapon and joined the team of settlements that were fiercer than pouring water. In early spring, the Daoshui River was very shallow, and the riverbed in Miaodong was filled with sand washed down from the upper reaches, exposing a sandy land. Wang Jian and Xia Guoni led the army of farmers across the beach, waded across the river, and rushed into the main hall of Longtan Temple.No matter what "gods" or "ghosts" are, as soon as the enthusiastic peasants entered the hall, they overturned the divine case of the Buddhist hall, smashed the incense burner, wooden fish, and smashed the "Bodhisattvas" made of mud. "Where's the person? Where's Jueming, that old bald donkey?" He beat him up for a long time, but he couldn't find the monk Jueming who was in charge. "There's also 'carp shell', that bald donkey is worse than his mother." But he couldn't find it either. The masses were in a hurry, so they searched on the third and outer floors of the temple. "You won't run away?" "Impossible. I saw him in the morning." "Then it can go to heaven, but the house is not burned down." "That house burned down." "Don't, talk to someone first." "Look——look at this tree!" When he found the back wall of the temple's backyard, the speaking farmer stared at a slender pine tree in a strange way and stopped.They stepped forward and saw that there was a piece of cloth wrapped around the tree, and the tree leaned out of the wall, as if something was hanging. "What's over the wall?" "Sand." "Then why doesn't this old bald donkey run away?" After he asked such a question, the young farmer who answered also understood that this old bald donkey was hanging outside.At the same time, he also made a new discovery, so he hurriedly called his companions and said, "Look at that strip of cloth, it's the cloth for their legs. It's a bit long, the wall is more than ten feet high, and the sand and soil are frozen hard. The old bald donkey Do you dare to dance?" "Huh--the old donkey, he'll figure it out. Come on, where's the old donkey--" When the strange crowd surrounded the tree, the two youths climbed up to the wall—not only the old bald donkey Jueming, but also the "carp shell" hanging beside it.Seeing the young peasant climbed onto the wall, he was trembling with fright, but he didn't dare to let go. Looking down, he couldn't fall to his death.Therefore, the young peasant who laughed at "haha" shouted: "Forgive—forgive—" "Forgive me, hmph, whose life did you spare when you did something bad? Bring the knife!" Before the voice from the top of the wall finished speaking, a gleaming "ghost head knife" flew up from under the wall. A young man on the wall firmly caught the "ghost-head knife", and only said, "Take the rope and go outside", and raised his hand to cut the cloth with the knife. "Shells" fell one by one onto the frozen sand.Before they kowtowed and begged for mercy, the crowd rushing over obediently detained the two of them. "Parade, let them bow their heads and confess their crimes first. As for the old monk, after the parade, hand it over to the farmers' association directly, and wait for it to be dealt with." As soon as Wang Jian spoke here, the farmers over there carried the seized weapons, charged Jueming and "carp shells", and went to the main street of the archway shop.People watching along the road, some pointed and cursed at the monks, some spit at them, while the tenants broke off the thin willow branches in early spring, and teased the two bad guys like monkeys, telling them to bow their heads and confess their sins.However, after almost all the people who made a fuss at Longtan Temple had left, Wang Jian faintly felt some tightness in his chest, and it was difficult to breathe freely. "Sit for a while before leaving?" Seeing Wang Jian's pale face, Xia Guoni, who was careful, knew that his old problem had recurred.Originally, he was not arranged to come back this time, but he insisted on coming back to take a look.Although comrades respect him as a brother, he is only twenty-five or six years old.Seeing his originally tall body thinning day by day, Xia Guoni's heart was also very heavy. "Just sit for a while." Wang Jian sat down slowly, but he didn't want to affect the emotions of his comrades because of his illness.Therefore, seeing Xia Guoni's pretty face was also gloomy.He teased her reluctantly and said, "How do you think that Jueming was able to climb the tree? Just thought of such a stupid way?" Because the appearance of Monk Jueming hanging there with the "carp shell" was too funny, so when Wang Jian said it, Xia Guoni smiled innocently.After laughing, he said: "I was scared out of my wits by the peasant association. Oh, listen—" Wang Jian listened carefully to the archway shop, and sure enough, the "Song of the Peasant Association" composed by themselves floated over—— "It's such a good situation, but there are still people who say that our peasant movement is 'very bad', a 'ruffian movement', a 'love peasant movement', and they do everything possible to sabotage and make trouble." Listening to the "Farmer Movement" I participated in editing Cange", Wang Jian's mood is also better.But I didn't know what to think, but I talked about these again. "Isn't that what the old rightists of the Kuomintang said?" "Not only Chiang Kai-shek of the Kuomintang, but also some people in our party were frightened by others. They didn't dare to support the peasant movement, not to mention that they said behind others that the peasant movement was 'overdone' and 'messed up'. Alas, Forging iron itself is not hard. Do you know? This kind of thinking has also reached us in Huang'an. Many gentry who were driven away by the peasant association have almost all returned. They are secretly sabotaging and making trouble, trying to counterattack and reckon!" "Yes, I know that. When I was still in Wuhan, there were a lot of rumors like this. It's just that I didn't expect it to spread to Huang An so soon." Seeing Wang Jian's mood improved, Xia Guoni talked to him seriously. these disturbing things. "Where do you think Huang An is? Huang An and Macheng are only a short distance away from Wuhan. However, I heard that Mao Zedong in Hunan wrote an article "Investigation Report on Hunan Peasant Movement", which is very powerful. The conclusion is that the peasant movement' very good'." "I've heard of it, but I haven't read it. However, he will come to Wuchang to set up the 'Central Peasant Movement Workshop' recently. You might as well go and listen to it then." "Yes. Hey, are Huang An and Macheng going to study?" "It's settled. Huang'an has Dai Kemin and Wang Dianchuan; Macheng has Liu Wenwei and Gui Buchan. There are others." "Oh, that's good. It's strange. I always have an intuition that as long as I follow Mao Zedong, the peasant movement will be successful!" Wang Jian stood up after speaking.Looking at the majestic Dabie Mountains in the north, I wanted to say something, but I didn't say it.After watching quietly for a while, he said to Xia Guoni: "Let's go to the Jianchang River in two days and see how Wu Huan is doing?" When Wang Jian and Xia Guoni Xu talked about the revolutionary situation, Mao Zedong had already arrived in Wuchang and began to host the "Central Peasant Movement Workshop".During this period, Hubei Province held the first peasant congress in the province. Mao Zedong was hired as the honorary chairman of the congress, met with all the representatives, and according to the situation at the time, issued a clear-cut call that we must overthrow the local tyrants and evil gentry, and fight for the interests of peasants. When there is a conflict with the interests of the landlords, the revolutionary comrades must stand up for the interests of the peasants, be a revolutionary who supports the interests of the peasants, and fight resolutely against the reactionary forces. 消息传到黄安和麻城之后，大大地刺激和震奋了黄麻两县农民的革命斗志。就在这时，中共湖北省委又颁布了《惩治土豪劣绅暂行条例》。按照《条例》规定，黄安和麻城两县都分别成立了“审判土豪劣绅委员会。”于是，心情忧郁了一晌的王鉴又笑逐颜开。这天一大早，他就告诉夏国倪：“我去箭厂河一下。” “我不去了？”夏国倪有点赌气的样子。 “你不去了。在家把报告整理一下，好不好？” “那还有什么不好的。”看见夏国倪满脸的不高兴，王鉴差点改变主意，打心眼里，他是喜欢这个健康而向上的姑娘的。让她多跑跑，也许会有好处。转眼一想，就又下了决心似地笑着对她说：“有的是机会给你跑。别泄气，革命的日子还长着呢。”话虽这么说，王鉴心里其实还有更隐密的另一层意思，也许，箭厂河是一场风险呢。再说，他也想单独见见吴焕先，和吴焕先一起，收拾掉吴惠存这个大恶霸。 正是早春3月，走在路上的王鉴看到田间地头河边都是春光一片的样子，不自觉地就想起了曾把马克思画像供奉到自家香案上的吴焕先。 就是这个与戴克敏、戴季伦是姑表兄弟的吴焕先，“五卅”惨案之后，回到黄安开展抗租、抗捐、抗债、抗税、抗课的“五抗”运动时，亲自点名要大地主吴惠存等家各设20桌酒席，宴请农民工友，以示对他们的初步惩罚。受剥削受压迫的贫苦农民，走进了地主的高堂大院，扬眉吐气地坐在椅子上；平时作威作福骑在人民头上的大地主吴惠存，吓得不敢着家。接着，他就带领农民清算了恶霸地主方晓亭霸占的公田公房。农民喜气洋洋，但地主恶霸对吴焕先却恨之入骨。 就在去年冬天，在吴惠存的指使下，恶霸方晓亭带着地方民团，烧了吴焕先家的房屋，杀害了他的父亲、哥哥、嫂子、弟弟等六口人。吴焕先回来后，看见母亲和最小的弟弟伏在亲人身上哭得死去活来，自己也悲痛万分。他擦去了眼泪，对母亲说：“娘，你们快走吧，不打倒军阀，地主阶级，儿誓不为人！”在他的一再劝说下，母亲忍痛才离开了家，到外面四处投亲靠友，漂泊度生。 “要想取得革命胜利，就得有自己的武装。”当王鉴见到失去了六位亲人的吴焕先时，他已经组织农会骨干，在家门口架起20盘火炉，群众有钱的出钱，有碎铁的捐碎铁，大火三天三夜，赶制鱼叉、大刀、梭标。见此情形，王鉴肯定地说：“焕先，你说的对，也做的对。没有自己的武装，迟早都得挨打受气！” “何止是挨打受气！” “焕先，仇，我们一定要报！如我王鉴还在，我一定帮你，杀掉方晓亭，杀掉吴惠存！告慰伯父他们的在天之灵！” “鉴兄！”吴焕先这个看似单薄的铮铮铁汉子，这才伏在王鉴的肩上，一起一伏地放声痛哭！ 他们分别之后，吴焕先立即组织参加红学的人，赤背光膀，刻苦训练。 奇袭民团，打盐卡，烧公所，夺钢枪，农民武装飞速发展，如今已是个初显规模的农民自卫队了。 后来方晓亭跑了，所以这一次王鉴赶来就是要收拾吴惠存这个恶霸的。 吴惠存是箭厂河地区的大土豪、大恶霸和大淫棍。是紫云区郑家边村人，担任着伪红枪会会首、民团团总等职，又是吴姓族长。长期以来，他依仗权势，横行乡里，鱼肉百姓，高利重租，盘剥工农；又勾结官府，制造假印，包揽词讼，坑害公民；同时，网罗土匪，打家劫舍，私设关卡，敲诈勒索，谋财害命，拦劫花轿，强占民女！可真是罪恶累累，罄竹难书。农民运动兴起后，不仅毫无悔改，反而变本加厉，诽谤农会，咒骂农友，暗中杀害农会干部家属，破坏革命武装，实属罪大恶极，不杀不足以平民愤，不杀不能发展农民运动。 想到这里，王鉴热血都往上涌，脚下加快步伐，口里还念念有词，这都是宣判吴惠存死刑的罪状！来到紫云区四角曹门村(今河南新县箭河)，王鉴先到农会干部周业成家，交待一番之后，又赶到了吴焕先的住处。 看到王鉴突然出现在面前，吴焕先又惊又喜，一把抓住王鉴的手，说：“只说你调到省里了，怎么说来就来了？” “怎么，不欢迎吗？” “哪儿呀，想都想不来呢。快喝点水，看汗津津的。”却握住王鉴的手不放，看了一会儿又说：“怎么搞的嘛，怎么瘦成这样了？比我还瘦！” “人生难买老来瘦嘛。”话一出口，王鉴自觉失口。 吴焕先虽然瘦小，却是十分的敏感。果然，王鉴一句玩笑话还没说完，吴焕先就松了他的手，联想起王鉴曾经说的“我要是还在”的那句话，就像感觉到了什么。半晌才说：“鉴兄，什么都可大意，就是病这东西大意不得。” “说什么呀，见面连口水也没喝，就说这些没边没沿的事。”说到这里，周必成、吴先筹、汪宗明、吴维如等十来个农会的负责人就都赶来了。进门自然是一阵高兴的寒暄。稍坐片刻之后，王鉴即说明了他来此的意图，传达了省党部关于依法惩处吴惠存的指示。接着才说：“现在我们说说，怎么惩处吴惠存？” 王鉴话一说毕，吴先筹他们七嘴八舌地就说开了。 “毙了算了，这家伙实在是太坏了！” “蒋介石还委任他当总团长，土匪也由他指挥……” “就凭这权力，他私设盐卡，代筹备军粮，放三青(即水稻、花生和木子)，五斗收一石，一箩收一担……” “还包人头税、六畜捐，逼得人都没法活，有的大年三十晚上跳塘死了，有的在家吊死了还勾结方晓亭……” 见大家越说越多，王鉴就制止了大家，说：“我们现在不说吴惠存的罪恶，他肯定是死有余辜。现在我们要商量的是，怎样抓他才牢靠？抓住以后怎么审判？” 王鉴一说毕，吴先筹就说：“我先说，吴惠存是个大恶霸，又有流氓地痞一大堆。我们不但要抓吴惠存，还得防止那帮小地痞闹事。” “有道理。”吴焕先这才接过吴先筹的话，说：“我们有三堂红学。我看就以他们为主要力量，一堂红学打地痞流氓，两堂红学来对付吴惠存。” “那怎么抓呢？”有人问道。 “也好抓。一般吴惠存睡在他的药铺里，一是寻花问柳方便；二是药铺简单一些，跑起来比他的深宅大院要容易一些。他也知道作恶多端，好日子过不了几天了。” “我看焕先说的有道理。基本力量就靠红学，分工也可以那样分。现在更重要的是，第一，今天晚上必须瞄准，看吴惠存是否进药铺；第二，药铺四周情况怎么样？是晚上动手呢？还是明天早上天不亮动手的好？噢，还有一点，抓住后先把他带到什么地方去？是就地处决？还是带到七里坪？或者是县上？” 王鉴一说毕，屋子里静了一会儿。接着吴焕先又说：“第一和第二都不难办到。即使他不住药铺，他家的情况我已经熟悉了好长时间。而药铺周围，就更容易行动了。四周都有出处，而离其它人家又远，只要我们包围了药铺，他就插翅也难逃。关于是早晨还是晚上，我建议是早晨。因为吴惠存这个王八蛋差不多夜夜都要吃喝玩乐，最近还有个从武汉弄来的一个团长的小姨太什么的，夜夜都玩得很晚，一般早晨都起不来。我们正好下手。最后，逮住后是送到七里坪还是就地处决？我觉得应该送到七里坪公决。吴惠存民愤极大，公决会给我们带来更大的影响。但是，如果万一有其它情况的话，就地处置也不是不可以。对吧？” “基本情况就这样吧，现在我们来议一议具体分工和其它细节问题。” 王鉴一说，众人又是群情激起。待到安排、布置停当之后，天色已经擦黑了。 这时，吴焕先变戏法似的，“咣”的一声，一只倒满了酒的老碗就搁到了桌子上。接着一举手，一只雪白的公鸡又被他倒头提到碗上面。公鸡挣扎了一下，那殷红的鲜血就洒在了碗的边边沿沿，之后便顺了酒水，把个碗染成了丝丝缕缕地游动着的红色。 见状，王鉴第一个端起了老碗，面向众人，说：“这酒应该叫'鸡血同心酒'！” 众人齐声作答。王鉴便又看了吴焕先一眼，说：“为了吴伯父及焕先兄亲人的在天之灵，为了天下的劳苦大众，愿我们各位同心、同力、同智、同勇，打倒土豪劣绅，打倒吴惠存！” 说着，王鉴仰脖子而长饮一口；接着，众人都默不作声，一个一个地把酒同心示忠勇。最后轮到吴焕先，他将碗里的酒一饮而尽之后，便“啪——”地一声，将碗摔在地上，摔成了花一样开着的碎片。 最后，等众人都悄然四散之后，王鉴才起身，对吴焕先说：“我要去看看吴惠存的药铺房。” 说是药铺房，其实比想像的药铺要大得多，不算前边的门面，也是个两进两房的大院子。四周松柏参天，院子灯火通明。 吴惠存不知死到临头，此刻却在最后一幢房子的一间偏房里与吴焕先说的那个武汉什么团长的三姨太在调笑。 “说个谜语给你猜，猜对了今晚放你去老六那里。要是猜不对，可得陪吴爷我好生耍一耍噢。” 那三姨太就在吴惠存的腿上坐着，春寒料峭的，花布旗袍的衩却开到了大腿那里，屁股一扭，全是白肉。她见吴惠存又在调自己的胃口，便在搂着吴惠存脖子的两条胳臂上使了些劲，还歪了一下头，才撅起厚嘴唇儿对他说：“你说吧。可不准耍我，要是我猜出来了，就得放我走。” “好。要是猜不出来呢？”那女人却撒了娇似的踢腾起双腿，“噌”地一下，把个红嘴唇儿就印在吴惠存那张老脸上。 “嗯，这还差不多。我说了——” “说吧，说吧，我都等不及了。” “你可准备好了——” “快说呀——” “听着——”吴惠存却不急着说，只用一双色迷迷的眼，直盯女人的脸。 “再不说我走了！”女人便装生气。 “好好好，就说就说——'掀开花被窝，伸手往里摸，掰开两条腿，就往眼上搁。打一物'。快猜。” “你说什么？再说一遍。”吴惠存又说了一遍。再听了一遍之后，女人却飞红了脸，闹着吴惠存说：“恶心死人了，我不说！你们乡下人都这么恶心，你另说一个。” “就这一个。”说着，吴惠存的手就有点儿激动。但不等撩开旗袍，就被女人装模作样地推开了。 “我就是不说。”她又说。 “不说也行，指给我看也可以嘛。” “不嘛，那东西怎么能随便指呢。要指，要指你自己指嘛。”女人的声音软绵了，吴惠存的手便就有了去处。但等女人娇浪出些声音之后，吴惠存却占了便宜似地说：“不过，不是这东西。” “那是什么？”吴惠存的慢怠把女人给惹恼了。 “你看——”吴惠存却不恼，只从鼻梁上取下眼镜，放在盒子里，然后再取出来，又架在鼻梁上。 “不算——”女人这会儿有笑了：“你这个恶心人的流氓。你敢这么欺侮我，看我不打你，看我不打死你——”说着，女人就又是闹又是打，打得吴惠存直假模假样地朝桌子底下爬。 就在这时，院子里“眶”的一声却惊动了吴惠存。 “谁？”吴惠存在桌子底下吼了一声，四房里的小丫头也都跑了出来。 见没有答应，吴惠存迅速爬出桌子，提枪就往处奔。 “老爷是我——”寻声望去，却是个站在窗台底下的小娄罗。 “你他妈站在这里干什么？” 吴惠存见他的长枪在地下倒着，就不耐烦地踢了他一脚。又见窗子上的粉纸被那斯舐了个小洞，就又踢了他一脚，吼着说：“滚，小公鸡连鸣都不会打还他妈就想压蛋！快滚！” 等那小娄罗拖着枪跑出了里院，吴惠存绕着院子转了一圈之后，才又回到了房子。 “怎么回事？”女人甚是关切地问了一句，吴惠存却答了一句十分下流的话，过去搂着女人，哼哼呀呀地就进了他的卧室。 第二天天刚蒙蒙亮，王鉴和吴焕先带着一律身背大刀的红学队员，把吴惠存的药铺包围了起来。他们身后，是闻信赶来的扛着锄头、举着长矛的农会会员。里三层、外三层，可真是围了个严严实实，水泄不通。 起初吴惠存听到了一点动静，却以为是风声，转过身子就又睡了过去。等到他再听见清脆悦耳的敲门声时，就不耐烦地坐了起来，一边穿衣服，一边不停地骂：“他妈的，死了人了，这帮王八蛋，还不如养几条狗灵醒。” “你干什么去呀？”女人这才醒来了。 “没听见敲门声吗？”吴惠存正没好气地伸胳臂穿衣服呢，“嗵——”的一声，卧室的门却被撞开了，一下子闯进来三五个虎彪大汉。女人“啊”地叫了一声，藏到了吴惠存身后。吴惠存下意识地去摸枪，没想却抓了一把女人的头发。拉了一下女人的头，见女人不动。这才赶紧下地，顺手拿起他的二马珠水烟锅来招待“穷人”，假惺惺地说：“坐，坐，你们坐呀。想必是有要紧的事，来得这么早？” 见没人接他的水烟锅，吴惠存的身子又到枕头那边挪。女人已经钻进了被窝，枕头在那里亮着。只要一伸手，就能摸到枪。 吴焕先明白了吴惠存的意思，一步冲上去，抢先从枕头底下摸出了吴惠存的枪，看了一眼，才不紧不慢地别在腰里，对吴惠存说：“你犯了罪了！” “我是蒋委员长任命的团长，你们可不得乱来！”软的不行，吴惠存就来硬的。枪虽然被摸了，嘴却还很硬。 “蒋委员长任命的。哼——我是省党部的特派员。省里有命令，要我们来捉你。上！”王鉴一声令下，汪宗明、吴维如等就扑上去，给他来了个五花大绑。 "you--" “我们要审判你！” 吴惠存还想反抗，却被农会会员们拖出了门。他们边走边呼口号—— “打倒贪官污吏！” “打倒土豪劣绅！” “打倒吴惠存！” 吴惠存被带走了。那些平时跟得很紧的一些狗腿子也逃散了。等天色大亮时，吴惠存的一干亲信和心腹又不甘心吴惠存被带走，立即纠集了一批人，杀气腾腾地冲出了四角曹门村。 半道上他们碰到了吴焕先的伯父吴惠干。 “你们干什么去？”吴惠干明知故问。 “我们去劫吴惠存！” “你们不要命了，他们是奉省里的命令来抓吴惠存的，谁敢违抗，就要诛戳。何况，就你们这些人，哪儿经得起三堂红学打。他们可都是些刀枪不入的勇士。就是追上了，你们还不是找死！” 吴惠干故意一气儿说了这么多，见有人有些动摇，迟疑着不太想走，那领头的心腹就过来推了吴惠干一把，骂着说：“去你妈的吧，老家伙！我们不听他说，救出吴老爷，人人有黄金。”说着喊着，就又一路尘烟地追了上去。 等王鉴他们压着吴惠存走到离七里坪还有三四里地的王锡九村时，他们便远远地看见了来劫案的人。 "what to do?" “谁来劫就杀谁！” “我看不必带到七里坪了。如果只有一个吴惠存，什么都好说。关键是那些劫案的人，都不一定该杀呀。对不对？” “也可以。那就把他带到大柏树下，征求群众意见，就地处决！”王鉴和吴焕先商量了几句，见吴焕先同意不必带到七里坪，就连忙转身对面前的红学队员和跟上来的上千群众说：“现在情况有变化，你们看，后边劫案的人就快要上来了。你们说，现在我们怎么办？” “打死吴惠存——” “打死吴惠存——” “打死吴惠存——” 群众的怒吼声滚动如雷，王鉴的心情也开始激动了，他信步走上大柏树下的碾盘上，面对群众，历数吴惠存的罪恶之后，他庄重地向大家宣布：“同志们，按照省里的指示，我现在宣布，就地处决吴惠存！” 王鉴话音刚落，农民们就举起锄头、扁担，把吴惠存的脑袋砸了个稀巴烂。 处决了吴惠存，即如麻城逮捕了丁枕鱼、王子厉一样，群情空前振奋。 黄安全县十个区，都先后成立了区农民协会，乡、村农民协会一下子发展到210多个，会员达5万6千余众。 3月下旬，麻城县农民协会筹备处也宣告成立，全县农会会员达12万4千余人。 农民运动，如狂风暴雨，所到之处，均呈摧古拉朽之势。这时的黄麻两县，除一座县城外，四乡都是革命的新兴势力。 但是，善良的农会会员们却怎么也想不到，就在他们
