Fox of France

Hearing the sound of horseshoes outside, Hidalgo was slightly surprised. Dolores is a fairly remote place, and there are not many people coming and going during the day. At this time, a group of people galloped on horseback, and something must have happened. So he said to his mistress Josephine who was helping him organize the sermon supplies: "You are here, I will go out and have a look."

Catholic priests have always required chastity, but this does not mean that priests do not have certain requirements. The reason why the Catholic Church is particularly prone to priests who love little boys morbidly is actually not without reason. However, this rule of Catholicism has gradually undergone new changes. That is, the rules of chastity continue to exist, but the meaning has changed to that as long as the marriage is not open, you can do whatever you want. For example, the famous Pope Alexander VI had a lot of mistresses, one of whom was even his own illegitimate daughter.

As a result, although Catholic priests still do not marry, many of them have mistresses and children. At this point, Hidalgo is no exception. As for the "revolutionary theology", it directly stated: "God is in the love between people, and only the devil hates the love between people."

Josephine nodded, and Hidalgo held a lantern with one hand and a revolver with the other, pushed open the door, and looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

At this time, the sky in the east was still dark, which was the darkest time before dawn.

From a distance, Hidalgo saw several lanterns coming towards him.

"Who is it?" Hidalgo asked.

The horses stopped, and a person could be faintly seen jumping off the front horse. At the same time, he raised the lantern hanging on the saddle to his face, and the yellowish light immediately illuminated his face. A face full of beards.

"Father, it's me, it's Allende!"

Hidalgo's friend was Captain Allende, who was also a Mudblood native. Prior to this, Dolores' wine and olive oil could be smuggled relatively safely, and Captain Allende helped a lot.

When Father Hidalgo began inserting some "revolutionary theology" in his sermons, Captain Allende immediately warned Hidalgo. He told Hidalgo that his thinking was so dangerous that if the Mexican Inquisition found out, he would be judged a heretic.

He told him that if it was in Europe, it would be no big deal if it was judged as heresy now. But in Mexico, the Inquisition is still able to kill!

"I know, you have a point. I think so too. But my friend, I don't want to see you turn into a torch. But you... I mean, you mean it, you really believe what you say and are you willing to work hard for it?"

"Yes, my friend. As Jesus said, 'Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.' I do not live to eat, but to the truth." Father Hidalgo replied road.

"Then, count me in too!" Captain Allende said, "It's time for this world to change!"

This conversation was a crucial step in the Mexican Revolution. Revolutionary organizations began to have their own armed forces.

"Allende, my friend, what happened?" Hidalgo asked quickly.

"Someone informed the Inquisition that you are a heretic who believes in 'revolutionary theology'. You know, half a month ago, a bishop was sent from Rome to supervise and investigate the heresy case of 'revolutionary theology'. At midnight, I got a message that people from the police department will come to arrest you after dawn today." Captain Allende said, "Fortunately, they don't know that we are in the same group and are all 'heretics'. The situation is very serious now. Urgent, tell me what to do, we all listen to you!"

Hearing this news, Hidalgo originally thought that he should be surprised or something, but even he himself was surprised that at this time, he was extraordinarily calm. Facing this sudden news, his heart didn't fluctuate at all, and he even actually laughed out loud.

"My friend, we have been preparing for so long, isn't it for this day? You didn't come alone, but you brought all our comrades in the army, isn't it for this day? These days In the past, we worked in the wilderness, didn’t we just prepare his way and make his paths straight for this day? Now, this day has finally come! Well, everyone has worked hard all the way, come in and have a rest, When day breaks, the crowd gathers..."

The cavalry led their horses and went to the back of the church to prepare.

As the sun rose, Father Hidalgo put on a black dress, came to the door of the church, and rang the church bell himself.

When it was almost noon, the crowd gradually gathered. Everyone gathered around Father Hidalgo's pulpit, waiting to hear him preach.

Father Hidalgo began to preach. In this sermon, he no longer conceals the content of "revolutionary theology", he will "reverse the Bible that was reversed by those false churches that follow Satan". Finally, he told everyone that the way of Jesus is the way against all oppression, the way of redemption, and the way of liberation.

"It is said in the Bible: 'Someone in the wilderness cried: Prepare his way, make his way straight.' This way is the way of Jesus, which is the way of redemption and liberation that leads the people to get rid of slavery and move towards freedom. Just as Moses the lawgiver brought the Israelites out of Egypt..."

At this time, some dust rose on the other side of the road-this was kicked up by several galloping horses. This is probably the police who came to arrest Father Hidalgo.

After a while, several policemen arrived at the door of the church. Led by a native white man, several policemen waved their batons, pushed away some Indians surrounding them, and walked towards Father Hidalgo's pulpit.

Father Hidalgo had noticed them long ago. At this time, his sermon also came to the last moment. So he shouted to the crowd: "My children, do you desire to be free? Do you wish to live a happy life? Three hundred years ago, the hateful Spanish colonial robbers robbed the land of our ancestors, and you are willing to do anything. to take them back?"

The surrounding Indians and native whites shouted together: "Hang the colonial robbers!" "Long live independence!" "Long live freedom!"

At this time, the few colonial policemen had just crowded by the pulpit and were about to announce that they would arrest Hidalgo, a heretic, in the name of God and the King, when such shouts rang out all around. Shouting like a tsunami was deafening, and the chubby policeman who took the lead opened his mouth wide, but didn't say anything.

At this time, the shouts around gradually subsided, and everyone saw the policemen who had squeezed to the side of the pulpit. Countless pairs of eyes were fixed on them. These gazes were as heavy as the Rocky Mountains, making the policemen sweat.

The chubby policeman leading the team trembled all over. He opened his mouth and finally shouted: "Hang the colonial bandits, long live Mexican independence!"

The few policemen who followed him immediately raised their fists high and shouted: "Down with the evil Spain, long live Mexico's independence!"

After shouting these few words, the policemen felt a lot lighter all of a sudden. The gazes of those around them staring at them suddenly became much gentler.

The policeman who led the team hurriedly grabbed the native white man who brought them here just now, and kicked him down in front of Father Hidalgo. Father Hidalgo looked down and recognized a smuggler named Leonardo who had bought their wine.

"Father, this guy is the one who informed!" The policeman pointed his baton at Leonardo angrily.

"So it was you kid! It was you kid who brought the police here?" A mixed-race white man pulled out a knife from his waist.

"Did you tell the secret? How many eagles did you sell us for? Thirty?" Another Indian also asked.

Father Hidalgo stepped forward and asked, "What's going on here?"

"Father, it's like this." The fat policeman replied with a smile on his face. "Recently, a damned Bishop Carlos came to the Inquisition and is offering rewards everywhere for the heresy of 'Revolutionary Theology'. This traitor, this shameless Scumbag, for money, go to inform! I bah! This shameless bastard, traitor, Judas! He went to inform the Inquisition, saying you are a heretic of 'revolutionary theology'. Bah! What's wrong with revolution ?Mexico should have had a revolution TM long ago! Revolutionary those peninsula people, those great nobles, and archbishops, it’s really deserved! Father, you don’t know, we have long had revolution in our hearts, and we have long wanted to put those damned Colonial brigands all hung to dry on the gallows! So we've brought you this traitor."

"Sheriff, how could you..." said the smuggler.

The fat policeman immediately hit his mouth with a baton, knocking out two of his front teeth.

"Shut up, you damn Judas! I hate Spanish bandits second, and traitors like you first! I can't beat Spanish bandits, can't I beat you?"

Then he said to Father Hidalgo with a smile all over his face: "Father, are we going to revolt? I know the reality in the city, and I am willing to participate in the revolution. Please let me contribute to the revolution. I am willing to give to the revolution." The army leads the way!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" several other policemen also shouted, "Father, we are willing to lead the way for the revolutionary army! Let's act now, priest! We will catch those Spanish bandits by surprise!"
