In the past, although Zhao Datong exploited the local people very strongly, but they have become accustomed to living under the control of Zhao Datong, although the life is hard, but they can barely survive, and suddenly changed people to control this area, no one can figure out how the new strongmen will treat them, in the eyes of everyone, since they are strongmen, there must be few good ones, they who have just arrived will definitely follow the habits of the poles and even the iron law, first wash in the local area, and treat the local people more severely, Therefore, in order not to be harmed by the new strongmen, many people began to choose to leave here spontaneously and flee to other places to find another way to survive.

In one day, there was an endless stream of people fleeing from Dongye Town on the road out of Dongye Town, and there were at least two or three thousand people at a glance.

Just as these people were staggering on the road leaving Dongye Town with a simple salute on their backs, a detachment of men and horses appeared on several roads, blocking their way.

Xiao Tianjian had just taken control of several local mines and iron furnaces, and he learned such news, when even if he was nervous, he ran here so hard to fight and kill Zhao Datong and Xiao Butchers to grab territory, what was the picture? Is it just a little bit of turf?

If there is no one to farm and mine here, the people brought by him alone will not be enough to gain a foothold here. Now that he heard that the local people and miners wanted to flee from this place with their families, Xiao Tianjian suddenly became anxious.

So he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately assigned his subordinates, while going to various crossings to intercept, be sure to persuade these local people to go home, even if the people have to go, they can't use force, and on the other hand, they arranged Luo Yingjie and other scribes in the army to immediately start writing notices for the people, and went to the villages and mines around Dongye Town to post them, and personally led more than 200 Xingtian army troops to block the road to Yangcheng County and block this dirt road.

When the people who were trying to flee to Yangcheng County first saw such a man with knives and guns suddenly appear in front of them, they all panicked and crowded on the road, and no longer dared to take half a step forward.

Looking at these nervous people in Dongye Town, Xiao Tianjian sighed slightly, this world makes the people really unhappy, in addition to the exploitation of the government, they will also suffer from all kinds of bandits, even if he killed Zhao Datong, who was the party to the disaster, but the people still don't appreciate his feelings, and would rather choose to flee from their hometown than stay in their homes, it can be seen that these so-called rebels, while fighting against the government, they also have a deep harm to the people.

Xiao Tianjian nodded to Li Lingfeng who followed him, for persuading these local people to go home, these people with foreign accents are definitely not as convincing as Li Lingfeng, who was born and raised here, so it is better to let Li Lingfeng come forward for this kind of thing.

Li Lingfeng nodded, and as soon as he lifted the reins, he slowly came to the front of this large group of people who were dragging their families and people who were about to leave here, and said loudly to them with both hands and fists: "Fellow villagers, fathers and elders, please!" Please don't be afraid, you are polite under Li Harrier (Li Lingfeng's nickname for himself)! ”

The people crowded on the road looked at the strongman who came to talk to them in front of them in disbelief, and when they heard his accent, they immediately found that the person who called himself Li Harrier was a local person in their Yangcheng, and he didn't seem to have any ill will towards them, and he spoke very politely, so they all quieted down, and no one gave Li Lingfeng a salute, just quietly listened to what Li Lingfeng was going to say next, and now what they were most worried about was this group of newcomers here, who would rob them. Some people hurriedly blocked their children or wives behind them, for fear that they would be taken by these thieves and robbed to do something to suppress the lady of the village.

Li Lingfeng saw that the hundreds of people in front of him had begun to quiet down, so he clasped his fists again and said, "Dare to ask all the villagers, where are you going?" ”

Facing Li Lingfeng's question, these people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer, and finally one of them was an old man, who walked out of the crowd tremblingly, bowed deeply to Li Lingfeng, and replied cautiously: "This good man is invited!" We, the common people, are going to Yangcheng County, and I ask the good man to raise his noble hand to make a way for us and let us go! ”

Li Lingfeng rolled over and got down from his horse to the ground, this action startled the old man, and he took a few steps back.

Li Lingfeng walked up to this old man and asked him, "Then I dare to ask, what are you going to Yangcheng County for?" It's good, on such a cold day, you don't stay at home, but you have to drag your family to run away from home, aren't you afraid of freezing and starving outside? ”

The old man looked embarrassed, and after thinking about it for a while, he still mustered up his courage and bowed to Li Lingfeng and said: "Don't hide it from you, we heard that Zhao Da's family was killed, Feng Baimian (Feng Tiancheng's nickname is the white-faced fox, so he was referred to as Feng Baimian by the locals) has blood to wash Zhaojiazhai, these years our ordinary people are already almost unable to live, if they are harmed again, then they will really all die!"

Although the old man also knows that if you go out to escape on such a cold day, you will end up in a foreign country if you don't get it right, but it's better than waiting here to die, isn't it! So please have mercy on us poor people, just let us go and let us pass! ”

Li Lingfeng sighed, and then faced the hundreds of ordinary people in the area of Dongye Town who were looking at him with their eyes, and said loudly to them: "I know what the big guy is worried about!" Because all of us are newcomers, and most of us are foreigners! As soon as I came here, I had a fire with Zhao Datong who was entrenched in the area of Dongye Town and Xiao Butcher in the area of Lotus Mountain, and killed him Zhao Datong and Xiao Butcher, so everyone was afraid! I'm afraid that when we get here, we'll harm you, folks, fathers, and elders, right? ”

These ordinary people all looked at Li Lingfeng with fearful looks, and no one dared to stand up and say it, but most of them also showed a look of approval on their faces.

Li Lingfeng continued: "Actually, all the villagers and elders have misunderstood us! We are just a pole in your eyes! But I, Li Harrier, can tell the big guys today that we are by no means strongmen like Zhao Datong and Xiao Butcher! You may not know that since our big boss came to the realm of our Yangcheng Territory, he has issued a death order among us, that is, to make us 'freeze to death without demolishing the house, starving to death without taking prisoners!'" 'No one under his command will be allowed to do anything that harms our local people!' Maybe the big guy doesn't believe my words, but please think about it, you are dragging your family away from home on such a cold day, and all parts of the world are not quiet, where can you go?

I, Li, can use the head of the Xiang to promise to all the villagers! I promise that after we come here, we will never do anything hurtful, and we will definitely make the big guy's life better and better! Please believe me once, let's go home! The reason why we came here to stop the big guy and prevent the big guy from leaving his hometown and home is not to loot everyone and exploit everyone! Let's go back! Let's all go back! Even if it's a gamble! It's better than a big guy running around so headlessly! ”

After listening to these people, they looked at the strong people who were blocking the road in front of them, and saw that the other party did not mean to use force on them, and the person who spoke to them was a native of their hometown, and they spoke so politely, so they were all at ease, since they said so, and swore that if they didn't know how to go, they were afraid that they would really anger these strongmen and force the other party to use force on them, in that case, they were defenseless people, How can it be someone else's opponent?

Moreover, this strongman who called himself Li Harrier made it clear that he would not harm them, and then listened to their military order of 'freezing to death without demolishing the house, starving to death without taking prisoners', and made it clear that he wanted to treat them as ordinary people, so that the minds of these people who planned to flee their hometowns were activated.

Some hesitated for a moment, then took their families and turned around and walked towards their home.

Looking at this group of ordinary people who returned to their homes, Xiao Tianjian finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to Li Lingfeng and said, "What Ling Feng said is very good, he finally persuaded them to go back!" ”

(Very good, I wasn't invited to tea, updated as usual, by the way, to celebrate, the broken monument erected by Fangzheng County for the devil was finally demolished, and it cost the people and money!) What a picture! ）
