Chapter 163: Migration

Li Ze rode his horse slowly, and in addition to dozens of personal guards such as Li Mi, he also closely followed the core figures of the Seven Great Families in Texas led by the Hou family.

A distance of hundreds of miles is not a long distance for a lightly armed army, and it can reach its destination in three or four days, but it is a long journey for such a large and growing army of migrants.

Seventh, everyone has money and strength, and if they don't detain their important people by their side, how can Li Ze be at ease? You must know that now in his hands, there are only three thousand black-clothed soldiers who are the faΓ§ade of Tu Hu.

The three thousand black-clothed troops, looking mighty, actually belong to the level of the five scum in battle, once these seven families come back to their senses and join forces to fight back, it will not be good. You must know that these people who have been relocated now are almost all enemies to Li Ze. This could be felt from the resentful gaze of Li Ze who occasionally looked at him as he passed.

Whoever encounters this will not have the slightest good impression of Li Ze. Li Ze has this self-consciousness, so he still shows a calm and confident expression in these hateful eyes.

The three thousand black-clothed troops are very vicious, and for those who walk and drag, they often use fists, feet and whips at each other, but the more vicious they are, the more docile those who are on the move will be.

It's not cheapness, it's fear.

Because the other party's hatred must come from the full self-confidence in his heart. And the enemy's self-confidence is naturally his own misfortune, and no one dares to anger these black-clothed soldiers at this time. The heads of people hanging on the head of Texas City have always been in front of these people's eyes, and their hearts and minds are dangling.

Those people used to be high-ranking people in Texas, and they were killed when they said they were killed, and the ordinary grass people, in the eyes of these people, I am afraid they are even less valuable.

Ordinary people will cherish their lives very much, even if they only have the last glimmer of hope, they are not willing to throw themselves into a desperate situation. This mentality made this increasingly large migratory army, with only a few thousand people escorted, behaving like gentle little sheep, although it was difficult, but still trying to move forward.

The fact that the main force led by Shi Zhuang did not follow the migration army is Li Ze's biggest secret now, only a few people know about it, and these black-clothed troops naturally don't know either, if they know that their main force is not nearby, or they won't have the confidence to be so tyrannical to these migration armies.

The Hou family and other big families naturally didn't know.

In fact, until now, they are still trembling. In their opinion, Li Ze, the little demon king, is really too difficult to serve. The cavalry was not on the left, and the armorers did not show up, so they didn't think it was a good thing. Smart people tend to think too much, and thinking too much leads people astray.

That's what they are now.

Li Ze's disposal of the Zhu family and the Ma family in Dezhou City really scared them.

In this situation, they think that Li Ze is deliberately creating some opportunities for them to make mistakes. Once a mistake is made, those wolf-like armorers will inevitably appear, and at that time, it is justified to kill them again.

Killing, seizing property, that's what Li Ze did to the Zhu family and the Ma family. The Ma clan just gave him a small excuse, and with a word of disobedience, he wiped out the entire Ma clan, which made people chill all over his body just thinking about it.

So they are deferential and honest.

Their performance made Li Ze very satisfied, because what they did had far exceeded Li Ze's expectations.

"Good job, good job." Looking at a few large iron pots on the side of the road distributing spoonfuls of steaming porridge to the people walking forward, Li Ze said to Hou Zhen.

"Being able to share the worries of the son is a blessing for the Hou family." Hou Zhen bowed down on the horse and returned the salute.

"Porridge doesn't have to be so thick." Looking at the porridge in the pot, Li Ze said seriously: "It's good to have the strength to hurry." ”

"Yes, we will do what Childe tells us next." Hou Zhen nodded repeatedly.

Hou Jia started, and the others had to follow the example.

In fact, none of these family heads are fuel-efficient lamps, and they can maintain the existence of a family in such a world.

Hou Zhen did this not just to curry favor with Li Ze, it can even be said that currying favor with Li Ze is just one of the small reasons.

Hou Zhen knows very well that this migration, unless there is any particularly major change, will be an unchangeable fact, they will leave their familiar hometown and go to a place where they are not familiar with life to live again.

It is actually extremely difficult to re-establish roots in another strange place, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on money alone. No matter where people are, no matter how kind they are, when they encounter outsiders, that kind of xenophobic emotion will appear involuntarily and naturally.

Therefore, not only must you have money, but you must also have the support of officials, and finally, you must have people.

Li Ze must support them, but it is impossible for him to abandon his original subordinates and sit on their side, once there is a conflict, it is more about mediation. So most of the things still need to be solved by themselves.

At this time, people are very important.

If more people can be gathered, it will inevitably be even more powerful. It can make the locals jealous and dare not easily provoke them.

One thing is for sure, when these migratory armies arrive at their destinations, they will inevitably be resettled separately, and there can not be too many natives in any one place. Hou Zhen set up a cauldron, boiled porridge and soup porridge, which is a typical wide variety and thin harvest, and cast a big net, maybe you can catch several fish.

Besides, in front of these folks, you can still have a good reputation at this time. Usually their reputation is not very good, but now they don't pay much, but they will get a lot, which is really the most cost-effective thing.

The little boy in front of him is a talker, as long as they are willing to follow, they will never touch their property, he did what he said, so just waiting for the family, all the property is enough to load hundreds of carts, of which food accounts for most of it, and the clansmen who follow are also carrying large bags and small bags on their backs, with these, it will be much easier to go to a foreign place to re-establish roots.

Li Ze is naturally clear about his careful thinking, but he is also happy to see it happen. In fact, these seven masters helped maintain order and direct the march on top of these two days, which greatly increased the speed of his entire march. If he had continued like this, he would have arrived two to three days earlier than he had planned.

For Li Ze, even if it is a day in advance, it is good.

"The master of the family is a man who understands and is also a wise man." Li Ze waved his hand and signaled to disperse farther left and right, at this time, he wanted to give Hou Zhen more expectations and let him work harder for himself. "Therefore, the return in the future will inevitably be much higher than what you pay today."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Hou Zhen said honestly.

"Don't tell me you don't dare, I know it's a lie." Li Ze said disapprehantly: "My surname is Li, so what I promised you will never be just casual talk." ”

Hou Zhen was a little dazed, he knew that this little son's surname was Li, and with such strength, he naturally came from the Li family, but the name Li Ze was too unfamiliar.

"My name is Li Ze, and I am the son of Li Anguo, the envoy of Chengde Festival." Li Ze said lightly: "In the future, Chengde will be mine, so everything you do now will inevitably get a greater report in the future, and in the same way, the more you invest now, the greater the return in the future." ”

Hou Zhen almost fell off his horse.

"The son of Li Jiedu's envoy?" Doesn't Li Anguo only have one son, where did this pop up? But looking at Li Ze's expression, it definitely didn't look like he was lying.

"You will slowly know about the things here, you just need to know now, I will be the future envoy of the Chengde Festival, follow me, it is much better than following the dead ghost Zhu Bin." Li Ze smiled and said, "Now my relatives are not too many of them, are there any outstanding children in the Hou family's family?" ”

Hou Zhen suddenly understood, as Li Ze said, this is an investment and a big gamble, Li Ze's intention to win over is so straightforward, so straightforward that he can't afford to refuse.

"Among the three sons and one daughter, only the eldest son still has some talent and is willing to obey the orders of the son." Hou Zhen bowed down on his horse.

"My relatives and guards are all going to go into battle, and death and injury are inevitable." Li Ze said lightly.

"Wealth has never fallen from the sky, if you want to get the wealth of the sky, you naturally need to fight for your life." Hou Zhen said.

"Very good, when you arrive in Wuyi and settle down, you will let your eldest son come to report to my personal guard. By the way, I will also inform a few other companies about this matter to see if they have this intention, and I want to come. Li Zedao.

"This is their blessing, and why should they not come?" Hou Zhen said again and again.

"Very good, then so be it, next, I hope that you will work harder in organizing everyone to speed up the march!"

The migratory army slowly squirmed forward on the earth like a huge worm, but at this time, Texas City was like a dead beast, lying quietly on the earth, without a trace of life.

As soon as the fox lay down on the roof of a tall building, basking in the sun.

Now in the entire Texas City, there are only a few dozen members of the Heart Moon Fox left with him. Shi Zhuang and Tu Lichun had already left Dezhou City a day ago, and they didn't know where they went.

Texas City is the place where they prepare to face the Henghai army.

A chirping bird flew up from a distance, and with a sharp whistling sound, it went straight into the air, and one by one the foxes rolled over and stood up from the ridge of the roof.
