Chapter 433: The Head Falls to the Ground
It is extremely difficult to recapture those released Confucian scholars because there is no list at all.
But there is no need to capture them because they are still causing trouble.
The most correct way is to send people to arrest the troublemakers one by one in Luoyang City from now on.
Luoyang Newspaper Office is located in the south of Luojing City. It occupies a small but rather elegant garden.
People in the newspaper office are now speeding up writing today's daily report.
The scale of newspapers in the Song Dynasty was expanding unprecedentedly.
However, many newspapers do not use printing.
This is also a rather helpless thing.
The efficiency of block printing was too low to meet the needs of daily newspapers.
If you want movable type printing to have good effects, it must be made of copper. The cost of making copper is too high, and it is extremely easy for the people below to steal it and sell it for money.
Therefore, newspapers in many places now basically ask people to write it directly.
In a big city like Luoyang, the number of daily newspapers published every day is one thousand, so you only need to hire ten people, each of whom can copy one hundred copies.
The wider dissemination of daily newspaper content still relies on storytellers from various places. After all, many civilians are illiterate.
But here comes the problem. Storytellers have a shortcoming: they are too subjective and too variable.
Let's talk about the current Luoyang. In the past two days since the Luojing University gang fight occurred on the first day of September, many storytellers who have not been recorded by the newspaper have suddenly appeared in Luojing city.
They spread the word in various restaurants, streets and alleys, and even outside the city that the imperial court was going to stop the new school.
These comments spread very quickly.
And we can quickly find out who is spreading it.
This is the disadvantage of word-of-mouth communication. It cannot be standardized and is very changeable.
That afternoon, a group of people suddenly came to the Luoyang newspaper office.
The leader was none other than Fu Tingfang, who took the lead at Luo Jing University the day before yesterday.
"Brother Rich, the newspaper office is here. Those people are still writing bullshit Xinxue remarks. It's really hateful!" The speaker was a student from Songyang Academy named Lu Wencai. His articles were well written and he was quite famous.
.
Fu Tingfang smiled and said: "Let's go in! Go in and smash it!"
"Wait a minute, I just heard that Uncle Zhang came to Luoyang at night, and now the Luoyang garrison has begun to conduct strict inspections in Luoyang City!"
"Strict investigation?" Lu Wencai laughed, "Are you going to arrest all of us again?"
"Hahaha, catch him today and release him tomorrow morning!"
"Maybe it will be released tonight!"
As he said that, everyone rushed inside.
After rushing in, they started smashing things without asking any questions.
"What are you doing! This is a newspaper office!" Li Changru, editor-in-chief of Luoyang Newspaper Office, shouted loudly.
But no one answered his question. People kept pouring in from outside, and they were fighting inside.
"Let you write!" someone roared, tearing up all the daily newspapers that had been written.
"These are nonsense! Tear them all up! Beat them! Let them slander the Holy Doctrine!"
"Tear this place down!"
"Smashed!"
More and more people are coming in.
Soon, the Luoyang newspaper office was in a mess.
As Zhao Ning said: When the group carnival begins, the individuals trapped inside will lose their ability to think independently. After reason is abandoned, there is no difference between humans and animals.
Someone crawled out of the newspaper office covered in bruises and shouted: "Help!"
The order on the streets of Luoyang is not much better.
"Report!" A group of patrolling soldiers ran over quickly, "Report to Zhang Jundu, the newspaper office! The newspaper office has been attacked!"
Zhang Bofen, who had just come out, heard the news and immediately rushed to the newspaper office with his people.
When Zhang Bofen arrived, there were screams from the newspaper office.
"Surround them all, and even a fly will be let go!" The Imperial Guard general who participated in the bloody battle to defend Tokyo and the Shangdang said in an iron-blooded tone.
"yes!"
The army immediately surrounded the newspaper club.
At this time, the Confucian scholars who were at the door rushed in to call people.
"Oh no, there are a lot of soldiers coming outside!"
Fu Tingfang and others had just finished smashing the newspaper office, and their blood was boiling. After hearing about it, they dismissed it and said: "Let's go! Let's see who it is!"
A group of people rushed out from inside.
When Zhang Bofen saw that the person actually came out on his own initiative, there was no need to go in and arrest the person himself.
"You smashed the Luoyang newspaper office?"
After all, Zhang Bofen was also a scholar. His father, Zhang Shuye, was a civil servant. He had read poetry and books since he was a child, so he still asked the questions that should be asked.
Each of these people was still panting, and obviously the blood was still burning in their heads. Lu Wencai said: "What do you want!"
An officer shouted loudly: "How presumptuous! In front of you is General Zhang Bofen, the commander of the Japanese army!"
Lu Wencai laughed loudly: "Isn't he just a Qiu Ba! What's so magical about it! Those who study are good men! Who are you Qiu Ba's! Why don't you get out of the way!"
Zhang Bofen asked again: "Did you smash the Luoyang Newspaper Office?"
"So what?"
"The newspaper office is the government office of the imperial court, you people are too courageous!"
"So what if I smash it! Do you know who I am!" This time, it was Fu Tingfang who spoke, "My great ancestor is Fu Bi! I am from a rich family! What? You still dare to kill me!"
"
"It turns out they are Fu Bi's children and grandchildren!"
He actually took the initiative to come out, looked around, and said with a smile: "It's good to know! A bunch of Qiuba! They dare to be so arrogant in our Song Dynasty!"
Seeing Fu Tingfang being so rude to these soldiers, the Confucian scholars suddenly became even more excited.
"We, the Great Song Dynasty, rule the country with culture, and the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together! It's not your turn for vulgar warriors to act recklessly here!"
Lu Wencai cheered from behind: "Yes! It's not your turn to be so arrogant here!"
The other Confucian scholars were obviously ignited, and they said: "You warriors! If you don't go to the frontier to kill the enemy, why are you here? How dare you point fingers at us!"
Zhang Bofen said: "Do you know what you are doing now?"
"We know very well!" Fu Tingfang continued, "What, you want to kill me?"
He took the initiative to come over to Zhang Bofen. With a look of disdain on his face, he actually stretched out his neck and said: "Kill me? Come! Give you a chance! You just need to chop here! My head will be destroyed."
Fall down! Do you dare!"
Seeing how brave Fu Ting was, those Confucian scholars became even more enthusiastic and arrogant.
They all shouted: "Don't you dare!"
Lu Wencai said on the side: "This is a person from a rich family, a person from a rich family! Do you understand?"
Fu Tingfang tilted his neck even more, his eyes widened, he looked at Zhang Bofen, made two gestures with his hands, and said provocatively: "Come on! Don't you dare to chop me down now! Come here! All you need is
Cut it off with one knife!"
"If you have the ability, chop it down!" Those Confucian scholars also shouted.
Zhang Bofen suddenly pulled out his knife and slashed it down.
In the Battle of Shangdang, it was Zhang Bofen who led three thousand Japanese cavalry to break up the main force of the Jin army at the most important moment.
Would someone who has seen mountains of corpses and seas of blood be afraid of killing someone?
