Changzhou Mansion.

"Yang Feng?"

Changzhou Governor Zeng Ying said blankly.

"Fujun, please make the king send troops quickly, the rebellious party has captured Henglin, arrested Zheng Taichugong and other elderly villagers and sages on the stage to humiliate and beat them, and also burned the land deeds and IOUs of each family on the street, looted all the gold and silver property, and the chaotic people in the four towns were like crazy slaves, and the good and peaceful world was like a ghost.

also shouted that the rich and the poor were both rich and low.

What to fight the local tyrants and divide the fields.

The ignorant and foolish people are all confused, and the entire Henglin is like a group of demons dancing wildly! ”

A boy cried.

A group of Wujin gentry who followed him instantly cursed angrily.

"Jane, it's crazy!"

Zeng Zhifu said with trembling lips.

It seems that he is also angry, as a magistrate who still has some brains, he knows very well how terrible these slogans are to shout, especially at this time, when the earthquake has just been experienced, in fact, aftershocks still occur occasionally, and the people are already in a panic, and if such slogans are incited, if they cannot be extinguished by thunder, it will cause a big chaos. What's more, there had already been a civil uprising here just now, although he knew what was going on with this popular uprising, but it was impossible for the surrounding people to understand that they had already been made up of a civil uprising in Wujin City.

I have to say that the Wu family is a stinky move......

Just thinking about getting out of Wu Liang's property, but forgetting that this kind of thing can easily trigger a chain reaction.

This kind of thing is easy to start with, but difficult to end, what is the situation of those ordinary people? Even if you don't incite it, you are often on the verge of eruption, let alone lighting your own fire, which is completely death. In the eyes of the prefect Zeng, this matter is to put it bluntly, it is the consequence of the Wujin gentry who played the civil rebellion before, and they played a fake civil rebellion here, but the hungry and cold people outside don't care, as soon as they hear about the civil rebellion here, they must follow the study first regardless of anything else, and finally the fake people become the real people.

This is purely self-inflicted.

But now he has to wipe his ass with this local official.

"By the way, what about the Swinging Army in Henglin?"

Something suddenly occurred to him.

"Fu Jun, Henglin Fort was besieged before, we didn't save them, how could they save us? What's more, it is rumored that Yang Feng is actually Yang Xin. ”

An old countryman said sadly.

Yang Xin swept through Henglin too fast, and the local gentry did not escape, after all, Henglin was less than ten miles away from Henglin Fort, and those gentry were afraid that they would arrive when they knew the news, as for these guys, they were all around Henglin. It is naturally impossible for them to stay outside after getting the news, in this case, they have no ability to resist at all, and it is the only wise choice to run into Wujin City to hide, but what is the specific situation in Henglin, they also got it through rumors.

In fact, it's a complete mess out there.

Not only Henglin, but also these villages in the east of Changzhou are all in chaos.

All the gentry were running away with their belongings, and some had run to Jiangyin, and they all knew very well what would happen next.

"Don't talk nonsense about this, I know you all hate him, but you can't just make it up for him, who will believe this kind of words? Is he rich or poor? Rich and poor with a family fortune of at least 5 million? Or divide the fields? His Yang family doesn't say that there are millions of acres of fertile land, but there are always 500,000 acres, so such people divide the land? You hate him and look forward to his mood of being punished by Ming Zhengzheng one day sooner, Zeng can understand it, but after all, we still have to make some sense, we are not as lawless as him after all. ”

Zeng Zhifu said

It's a pity that he still speaks for Yang Xin.

However, those gentry also don't believe that Yang Feng is Yang Xin, after all, this is too unbelievable, a person who is said to have a family property of at least five million taels and more than 500,000 acres of fertile land takes the poor ghost to play with the rich and the poor to divide the land, this kind of thing is really no one believes it!

As for this rumor......

It must be just like what Zeng Governor's Mansion said, that is, which gentry who hated Yang Dudu to the core, deliberately fabricated this rumor by virtue of the surname Yang of the bandit leader and Yang Dududu, and it was also a single-character name, and then it quickly spread among the people with false rumors. This kind of thing is not a big deal, Yang Dudu can't be Yang Feng, these gentry can still be sure of this, they just casually mentioned Zeng Ying.

"I will immediately report this matter to Governor Gu and Chen Shangshu, but at this moment, there are no soldiers and horses in Nanjing, and it will take some time for Governor Gu to mobilize troops and horses, but Henglin is close at hand, I'm afraid we can't wait, you can only have money to contribute to this crisis, 180,000 is not too much for you, but it is enough to recruit young people to defend the city.

In addition, you have to scrape together some silver, what are the soldiers and horses of these guards around, I think you all know very well, that is, there are still some soldiers in Su Song who can fight, but most of them are also transferred to North Korea, if you really want to suppress the rebellious people, you have to find Yang Dudu and his barbarian soldiers.

You can only give up your old suspicions.

After all, this life-saving life has to rely on him in the end! ”

Zeng Zhifu said earnestly.

At this time, Jiangnan is almost undefended, although theoretically there are a large number of guards in the area of Su Songchang, Suzhou Wei, Taicang Wei, Zhenhaiwei are all in this area, but the guard is not mentioned at this time, in addition, there is a deputy general soldier on the side of Songjiang, that is, Qi Jin's errand back then.

But now it's actually all transferred to North Korea.

Qi Jin still controls Jeolla in Korea, Li Hui is currently unable to continue the offensive, but the Ming army and Li Ju are also unable to counterattack Seoul, after Sun Chuanting arrived in Liaodong last year, the boar skin is unable to break through his blockade, so the importance of North Korea has increased greatly, so he provided more support to Li Hui. All Qi Jin's partial division could do was to help Li Liang control Jeolla, but almost all of his troops were transferred from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, although there were not many of them, but they also emptied up all the troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who could fight.

At present, these are the guards, and it is difficult to count on these people to ensure the suppression of the rioters.

But there are also those who can fight in Nanjing, that is, Yang Dudu and his native soldiers, and in fact, as long as Yang Xin orders the militia in Wuxi next door, they can be recruited to participate in the war.

Those militias are also very capable of fighting.

In recent years, they have been in constant friction with the local gentry, and there are often gentry who organize domestic slaves and fight with them under the banner of fighting for water sources, and even have more than 1,000 people, but the result of the fight has always been the militia winning, if it were not for the local officials to pull the shelf, it is estimated that the Wuxi gentry would have been beaten into quails by these militias, and even then it is still gradually being controlled by the militia.

But this also had to be ordered by Yang Xin.

Without Yang Xin's order, whether it is the Dangkou army in Henglin or the militia in Wuxi, they will only watch the surrounding gentry unlucky, the two sides have been like fire and water in recent years, and even the gentry have forbidden their tenant daughters to marry the militia, and the commercial system they control also rejects the militia, not to mention that they have just instructed the bandits to attack Henglin. It is impossible for these people to take the initiative to save the gentry, they can only be ordered by Yang Xin, so at this time, no matter how much the Changzhou gentry hate him, they must pay money to coax him, and only Yang Xin can save them in this area.

"How much silver does that cost?"

A fellow sage said in amazement.

The others looked at each other in the same tangled way.

"How much silver you can also come to the point, this Jiangnan currently has no other soldiers to fight in addition to him, Yang Xin doesn't save us, no one can save us, I don't care about martyrdom, this kind of thing happened, Zeng Mou can't escape the blame, but are you willing to die with me? Not only the silver, but also the affairs of the Wu family, you also have to give him an explanation, Yang Xin will repay him, if you don't give him a satisfactory result, don't expect him to come before Wujin is breached. ”

Zeng Ying said.

He also despises these guys now.

"What is this called?"

An old countryman said sadly.

The other gentry looked at each other sadly, saying that this was just lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot, if they didn't play a fake civil uprising, maybe it would not lead to a real civil uprising, originally planned to deal with Yang Xin, but now they have to pay money to beg him for help, I knew that it would be like this, so why do I need to make so many things?

Zeng Ying looked at them silently.

This thing is really difficult to do, these guys just slapped Yang Dudu in the face, and transferred all the Wu family property that Yang Dudu is determined to get, the Wu family is too big to say, there are always 500,000 properties, which have been regarded as a bag by Yang Xin, but they were mixed up by these guys, and they also bought bandits to besiege his subordinates, at this time, if you want to ask Yang Dudu to save them, you have to be ready to be cut with a knife.

I'm afraid I can't get rid of two or three hundred thousand.

Maybe Yang Xin deliberately watched this place being attacked by the rebels, and then purged these gentry, and after cleaning Yang Xin came to take over a militia area.

The real purpose of this guy is not silver at all, he really took the Wu family to confiscate the Wu family's fertile land, and then create another militia area like in Wuxi. But now that the title deed of the Wu family has been transferred, Yang Xin has to find someone to die for the Wu family, then these gentry in Wujin are undoubtedly the best choice, and it is in his best interest for those rebellious people to kill all the gentry for him.

These gentry want to make him happy?

It really had to be cut and bloody, and even a lot of flesh and a lot of blood.

Unless these gentry in Wujin can defend the city by themselves, this will also have to cut their flesh and bleed, after all, those young and strong people will not give them nothing to do.

Maybe people prefer Wujin Chengpo.

At this moment, Zeng Fujun was really sad, because he had almost seen a hanging rope waiting for him, but he was still a responsible official, and he had not thought about escaping yet.

"Fujun, the big thing is not good, the thief army has captured Qishuyan!"

A civil servant ran in screaming in terror.

All the gentry were dumbfounded.

"Quick, what are you waiting for, hurry up and go back to get the silver, ten taels of silver each, let those young people go to the city!"

Zeng Ying shouted anxiously.

Then, as soon as he finished saying this, another official ran in outside......

"Fujun, the thieves are outside the city!"

He wailed.
