Chapter 146: The Brief Slave Revolt

Gillian, who is richer, more self-reliant, and more confident, is undoubtedly terrifying.

It's definitely not something that a woman who looks prettier than Gillian and is younger than Gillian can beat.

Liu Che himself is not a long-term person, so Gillian calmly waited for Liu Che to visit again.

It's like Jiang Taigong sitting on the edge of Weishui waiting for the big fish to take the bait.

Life is full of battlefields......

The war between the slaves and the nobles finally arose.

A family of five doctors in Yangling-eup bought twenty-six slaves to cultivate the farmland.

This would have been a good thing, the family's farmland was cultivated, and the master only needed to keep the slaves from starving.

When the slaves came to the house of the five masters, under the supervision of the whip, they still worked very hard, whether it was the summer harvest or the autumn harvest, they all helped the master's family a lot.

The masters, who saw the profits, felt that the efficiency of slave use could be further developed, and the cost of spending on them could be reduced a little more.

As a result, the slaves were forced to work day and night, and if they resisted a little, the five doctors invented many strange punishments to deal with the slaves.

According to Cao Xiang, one of the most famous is to put a flock of rats in burlap bags and put them on the lower bodies of slaves......

There was also a slave who was tied up in the scorching sun for three days by the five doctors for stealing food, and the slave did not survive the torture of these three days and was about to die, and was discarded by the five doctors to the mass grave to feed the wild animals.

If it was an ordinary slave, it would be fine, but this slave who stole food was captured from the battlefield by Huo Quai.

He survived by eating dead human flesh in a mass grave, and recovered well, and then he couldn't bear the hatred in his chest.

One dark and windy night, he colluded with the rest of the slaves of the five doctors' families, secretly smashed the shackles, killed the guards of the five doctors' families, and then closed the doors of the five doctors' houses for three whole days.

It wasn't until the smell of corpses that the stench of corpses diffused that the government sent people to jump over the wall and enter the house of the five doctors, only to discover a brutal and inhumane disaster scene.

The five doctors were skinned alive and died, and his human skin was stretched on the wall of his house, and his technique was skillful, the human skin was complete, and his facial features were clearly recognizable.

"Do you know what it is like to die of adultery after death?" Cao Xiang put his hands in his sleeves and asked Yunlang quietly.

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

Cao Xiang nodded and said, "I haven't seen it either, but my housekeeper has seen it, and he insisted on not telling me what the scene was like."

I was worried that I would not be able to sleep well at night, so I only told me that none of the women and children in the family of the five doctors escaped. ”

"Now, where have all the slaves gone?"

Cao Xiang gritted his big white teeth and smiled: "Enter Shanglin Yuan!" ”

"Entered the Shanglin Garden?"

"I didn't know it at first, but then a slave thought it would be better to join us, so he took the initiative to run out and report his companion to the government, and then the matter became very clear."

Yun Lang pointed to the room full of nobles and asked, "So, these people are gathered for a meeting, are they going to discuss how to hunt down slaves?" ”

Cao Xiang shook his head and said: "The men who hunted down the slaves have been dispatched, those slaves can't escape, and they are now discussing how to manage the slaves more effectively and prevent such a thing from happening again!" ”

"Isn't there anyone proposing to deport the slaves?"

"How is it possible, slaves are very profitable."

"We don't have slaves in our two families, what are we calling us to come over?"

"This is a collective matter for the nobles, and the decisions they make will be followed in the future, as long as they are the ones that the nobles will follow in the future.

You and I are both nobles, so naturally we can't be less. ”

"What is Zhang Tang doing there, look at what this guy is talking about?"

"Formulating slave management regulations, how can it be less than Zhang Tang's punishment for everyone, this guy is now desperately courting everyone, I heard that as soon as this happened, Zhang Tang began to formulate rules, and now it is just the right time."

Yun Lang nodded again and again.

Since it is a large collection of nobles, the Yun clan naturally cannot be less, I don't know if there is any benefit, at least there is no harm.

This kind of large collection generally has no conflict of interests, and the rules formulated are also regulations that are beneficial to all nobles, and the Yun family must not be too high-minded, otherwise, it will be troublesome to be excluded by all.

Yun Lang is not surprised that such a thing happened, if the slaves are oppressed, the slaves will rebel, which in itself is an inevitable result.

I just don't know if these twenty or so slaves have the courage of Spartacus to make things bigger.

A room full of indignant nobles perfected the regulations, unbeknownst to distant Rome, a few decades later there would be a massive slave revolt that would leave the mighty Roman Empire in disarray.

When Yun Lang was recalling the epic and grand scene of the movie "Gladiator" in his mind, the dry mouth Zhang Tang squeezed over from the crowd, sat opposite Yun Lang, and drank three cups of tea in a row, then he heroically wiped the water stains on his beard and said to Yun Lang: "Strict punishment can determine people's hearts!" ”

"What if those twenty or so slaves take the opportunity to connect with other slaves, and then hide in the Qinling Mountains, constantly looking for opportunities to sneak attack us?

What should you do if there are tens of thousands of such people, and they don't die one by one? This is the center of Gyeonggi, and small things will be spread into big events by the messengers of the country. ”

Zhang Tang was stunned for a moment and smiled, tapped his fingers on the table and said, "If it is more than twenty people like you and me, it is indeed a big trouble, but - it is a group of slaves, a group of illiterate slaves!" ”

Yun Lang frowned and said, "Liu Xiang never reads!" ”

Zhang Tang still smiled and said nothing.

It's a shame.

Yun Lang was only interested in the huge slave uprising, and the slaves who fled into Shanglin Yuan had already been captured by the generals and family members sent out by the nobles.

Zhang Tang laughed, patted Yun Lang's shoulder with his right hand, and got up to avenge the five doctors who made people skin.

Seven were killed in the process of capture, and eighteen were left alive, and the slave who had been briefed was thrown in, counting as nineteen.

Nineteen large vats were neatly placed outside the city of Yanglingyi, each containing a slave, and around them, there was a dense group of slaves.

This feast was for the slaves.

When the firewood under the vat is lit, the place becomes a living hell.

Yun Lang naturally couldn't stand this kind of scene, and dragged Cao Xiang, who was meticulously preparing to watch the excitement, to the big tree where he couldn't hear the screams.

"It's so exciting, you say, how did Zhang Tang come up with this method?"

Yun Lang smiled bitterly: "I told him, once I accidentally said an allusion to invite you into the urn, Zhang Tang asked for the source, I made one up casually, as a result, he didn't care about the connotation of my words, but he remembered this punishment clearly." ”

Cao Xiang looked at Yun Lang in surprise and said, "Tell me, I also want to know the allusion of inviting you into the urn." ”

"This story is not very famous, a local little cool official, asked an old cool official, said that there was a thief who was very hard-mouthed and unwilling to confess, and asked the old cool official if there was any way for him to speak.

The old officer told him to put the prisoners in the altar, and then to light a fire under the altar and barbecue them, and that no prisoner would confess.

So, the little cool official lit a fire in the courtyard, placed the jar, and asked the old cool official to enter the altar, and he wanted to know about the lawlessness of the old cool official!

The old cool official immediately collapsed, and no matter what kind of confession the little cool official wanted, he would say, and then, this allusion was handed down. ”

Cao Xiang nodded and said, "Very interesting allusion, when is the story?" ”

"I don't know, maybe it's the story of the Seven Heroes."

Cao Xiang sighed and said: "We have to be careful in the future, don't let others use the methods we have used to deal with us in the future, in that case, it will be too fucking uncomfortable." ”

I don't know who this punishment is punishing, the slaves are naturally silent, and even the nobles who are watching from the side are all like earth.

Only Zhang Tangzhi was complacent, sitting quietly on the high platform, his eyes constantly wandering over a few nobles who did not deal with him.

Those nobles who were very unkind to him on weekdays lost their arrogant appearance at the moment, and they didn't dare to look at Zhang Tang!

This scene fell in Yun Lang's eyes, and there was a different feeling in his heart, where is Zhang Tang currying favor with these nobles, he is standing up for power, using the most vicious punishment in the world to warn those who oppose him.

If he doesn't die!

He will definitely invite those who hurt him to go to the urn!
