When Liu Qun heard Zhang Twelve's arrangement, he didn't say a word, and immediately passed on Zhang Twelve's words.

Hearing the news, all the soldiers cheered.

They were so hot, not only because of the weather, but also because they were wearing thick military uniforms and armor, and under the scorching sun, the whole person seemed to be steamed, and the clothes were all soaked, not to mention how uncomfortable!

Liu Qun ordered a rest just now, giving them a chance to breathe, but they also knew that this rest was also temporary, and it was estimated that it would not be long before they had to get up and continue to walk against the sun.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little tired, but when the march was out, they wouldn't talk much.

Now they suddenly heard Liu Qun say that they would set up camp here and wait for the sun to set before continuing their journey, and they became excited!

Just now, because I felt that I was temporarily camping, even if everyone sat down, they didn't dare to take off their clothes, so they could only take a little rest, ready to set off again at any time.

But now it's different, after hearing Liu Qun's command and cheering, everyone took off the thick armor outside and put it aside, which can be regarded as relaxed and cool.

Then some people ran to the side of the stream and poured water on their bodies to cool off, and some began to set up pots and tables, and took out the grain, ready to make a fire for cooking.

The Jinling Cavalry Regiment led by Zhang 12 enjoyed a rare comfortable time.

………………

Inside the city of Quzhou, outside the yamen.

At this time, a lot of Quzhou people gathered at the door, and everyone was looking at the notice above, frowning slightly.

"Why do you want to increase taxes?"

"Isn't it, didn't you just hand it over once a few days ago? How many days have it only been? ”

"Last year's harvest was not good, where can I find so many taxes? Is this still not a way to live? ”

It turned out that the notice posted outside the yamen was written because the defenders of Quzhou City were going to organize troops to resist Zhang Twelve's northward march, so they wanted to collect taxes from the people of Quzhou to fight the war!

Quzhou is not Jinling, and the people are not very wealthy, and now they are arbitrarily collecting taxes, and the common people have a lot of complaints, and they have all started complaints there.

"You're all fed, there's nothing to do, right? If you have nothing to do, hurry home and get your taxes ready! Don't wait for us to collect it, we won't be able to get it out! ”

At this time, a sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked official came out of the yamen, stared at the people who were looking at the notices and whispering, and shouted directly.

When the people heard this, their brows furrowed again, and there was no doubt that they were extremely disgusted with the official in front of them!

But as a flat-headed commoner, in front of an official, even if he is dissatisfied, even if he hates it, what can he do?

These people glanced at the official in disgust, turned around and prepared to leave, when some curious people couldn't help but ask: "Official, will Uncle Zhang really come to Quzhou City?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people who had turned around and walked a few steps just now immediately turned around and no longer left, but looked at the official with a curious expression, waiting for him to speak.

The official first snorted disdainfully, and then stared at the people who asked just now with some dissatisfaction and said, "Uncle Zhang? Which Zhang County Uncle? ”

"Naturally...... The eldest grandson of Wei Guogong, Zhang Xianbo ......"

If Zhang Twelve heard this, he would be very disappointed.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Twelve was a household name in the Tang Dynasty, but few people knew his name, and the most well-known thing was the three words Zhang Xianbo!

"Uncle Zhang? Wei Guogong? Hehe......"

The official sneered, and then scolded: "Okay, you Diao Min, believe it or not, just by relying on your words, I can punish you for your crimes and arrest you in prison?" ”

Looking at the hideous face of the officer, the common people were frightened, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "The official spares his life!" If the little one collides with the official master somewhere, I hope the official can come forward to testify......"

The official sneered twice, then his cold gaze swept around everyone again, and then he said, "Okay, then I'll tell you!" Wei Guogong? Does Datang still have Wei Guogong now?

Since the current Holy One succeeded to the throne, there is no more Wei Guogong in this world!

And that twelve, I'm sorry, what county uncle? That's the murderer who killed King Kang, everyone will be punished, if anyone dares to call him Zhang Xianbo again, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will arrest you all in prison! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath and was silent.

Seeing that everyone was frightened by themselves, the official was also very proud, and continued: "I also tell you that this time Zhang Twelve came from Jinling, it was really beyond his strength!

As long as he dares to come to Quzhou, our Song Shou General will let him know that the officers and soldiers of our Quzhou City are not easy to mess with!

And you, hurry up and go back to prepare for the tax, and let Song Shou buy more weapons and horses when the time comes, and leave no armor for Zhang Twelve's killing, hahaha............"

The more the official talked, the happier he became, and he didn't care about everyone, and after he finished speaking, he strode towards the county office.

Speaking of which, this official's hatred for Zhang Twelve can be said to be from the bottom of his heart.

He hadn't seen Zhang Twelve, but he was full of hatred for Zhang Twelve, why was this so, it was because of Zhang Twelve's last trip to Quzhou!

After Zhang Twelve came to Quzhou last time, the first stop was Zhoujiazhuang, where he not only killed that Zhou Yuanwai, but also took all the family wealth of Zhou Yuanwai!

After that, Zhang Twelve left Quzhou, but some people hated him, such as the sharp-beaked monkey servant just now, Zhou Bobo.

Zhou Yuanwai is Zhou Bobo's uncle, because Zhou Yuanwai has no descendants, so it is natural that Zhou Bobo thinks that after a hundred years of Zhou Yuanwai, his big industry will be his!

Whenever he thinks about this, he can be woken up laughing!

So sometimes, he wished that Zhou Yuanwai could die early, only when he died, Zhou Bobo could inherit his family property smoothly!

But I wanted to think about it, but when Zhou Yuanwai really died, Zhou Bobo didn't think so, not only was he not happy, but he was almost angry to death!

It's not because he cares about his uncle so much, for him, it doesn't matter how Zhou Yuanwai dies, as long as he leaves the family property!

But unexpectedly, Zhou Yuanwai died a result he didn't want to see!

Not only did people die, but even their possessions were gone!

Isn't this a cheat?

After waiting so long, you gave me this?

At that time, Zhou Bobo was like thunder, and after many inquiries, it was determined that the person who was ruthless to Zhou Yuan at that time was Zhang Twelve!

Since that day, he hated Zhang Twelve, and later heard that when Zhang Twelve committed suicide by throwing himself into the river in Jinling, although he was happy, but he was unhappy, because Zhang Twelve was dead, but those family properties outside Zhou Yuan were also gone, which made him a little unhappy!

Now I suddenly heard that Zhang Twelve was not only alive, but also going all the way north from Jinling to Jingzhou!

When I heard the news, Zhou Bole didn't sleep all day and night!

What a godsend!

He didn't believe that anyone could fight against a country by himself, and Jinling City was more prosperous than Quzhou, but the army was not stronger than Quzhou, and Quzhou City was still on defense, Zhou Bobo really couldn't think of how Zhang Twelve could fight Quzhou!

If you can't defeat Quzhou, you will definitely be killed by the officers and soldiers of Quzhou when the time comes!

At this time, Zhou Bobo once again saw the hope of Zhou Yuanwai's family property!

So he has recently become very close to Song Dashan, the guard of Quzhou City, and has been inviting Song Dashan to drink in private, so that when Zhang Twelve attacks the city, he can also stand on the city wall and stand on the front line!

At that time, as long as Zhang Twelve is taken down, he will rush down and secretly ask Zhang Twelve about the whereabouts of those family properties, and when the time comes, wouldn't it be beautiful to take back Zhou Yuanwai's family property?

I heard that Zhang Twelve has already set off, I'm afraid it will come tomorrow, right? Hehe, this time he will not come back!

Thinking of this, Zhou Bobo was even more excited!

………………

Besides, the people of Quzhou City have long been very dissatisfied with the county government's practice of indiscriminately collecting taxes.

was reprimanded by Zhou Bobo just now, which added a lot of anger.

Coming out of the gate of the county government, all the people came to a teahouse, saying that it was a teahouse, but in fact, it was a large shed on the side of the road, and there were some tables, chairs and large bowls under the shed.

At this time, there were already a lot of people inside, but looking at the undershirts worn by these people and the straw sandals they wore under their feet, it could be seen that this teahouse was a civilian teahouse.

Here, you can drink a big bowl of herbal tea for only a few pennies, cool and quench your thirst and get rid of fatigue, very pleasant, but this tea is not a good tea, it is generally just some leftovers from selling tea, but the price is there, and not many people care.

Most of the people who come here to drink tea are ordinary people, who work hard and do heavy work on weekdays, after all, those rich people have gone to restaurants or good tea houses, where will they come to such a bad place?

This also leads to the fact that people who come to this small teahouse don't have to worry about anything when they talk.

When these people entered the teahouse, they told the scene that had just happened outside the county office, and they were filled with righteous indignation.

When those people heard this, they also began to talk nonsense.

"Fighting wars and collecting taxes? Hehe, I don't think this tax is for war, right? ”

"Not really! Quzhou County Government collects so many taxes every year, and every time it sets up a name, it has collected a tax once before, saying that it is to buy equipment for the soldiers defending the city, how long has it been? ”

"Hehe, Quzhou City has not been in war for many years, and every year the imperial court has allocated so much military salaries and collected so many taxes from us, not to mention fighting a war, even if it is half a year, it is enough!"

"This money, I don't know whose pocket it will go into if I collect it!"

It seems that the people of Quzhou City have long been very dissatisfied with the officials of Quzhou City, and it is precisely because of this incident that everyone vents their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Everyone talked a lot, most of them were complaining about how the Quzhou prefect and the guards were not good, and at this time, someone suddenly asked in a whisper: "Do you all know why Zhang Xianbo went north this time?" ”

Immediately someone couldn't wait to say, "I know, I know!" I heard that the rise in our grain prices was all because of the instigation of the current saint, and Uncle Zhang found out that this matter happened to offend him!

That's why they will hunt down and kill Zhang Xianbo and punish the Zhang family! ”

"Also, I heard that the first emperor and King Xiang, they are all ............"

Everyone immediately told what they knew, and it seemed that what Zhang Twelve asked Wang Chengen to send out had spread in every city.

"Do you think this is credible?"

After saying this, someone suddenly asked.

"I think it's believable! Wasn't it because of Uncle Zhang that our grain prices recovered? I have a distant relative who lives in Jinling, and he was also present when Zhang Xianbo killed King Kang.

He said that it was because Zhang Xianbo found out that the rise in grain prices was related to the Jinling guard Sui Wuyuan, King Kang and several grain owners, so he offended them, and King Kang ordered to kill Zhang Xianbo, and Zhang Xianbo was the first to strike! ”

"Yes, Uncle Zhang is the one who does practical things for our people!"

"I'll not hide it from you, I happened to go to Jinling a few days ago, guess what?"

"What's wrong?"

Everyone asked curiously.

"Sui Wuyuan or Zhao Baiyu and other grain owners who participated in the rise in grain prices have been killed by Zhang Xianbo, and Jinling City can now be said to be Zhang Xianbo's Jinling City!

The current Jinling prefect Wang Chengen, that is also Zhang Xianbo's person, he became the prefect, not only exempted the people from all kinds of taxes, but also for the sake of the people everywhere, now the life of the people of Jinling is so good! ”

Hearing this, everyone was envious.

In fact, Quzhou City didn't collect too many taxes before, but since Tang Yizhi became the emperor, all kinds of taxes have increased, so when it comes to it, this is bad from the root!

Therefore, if you want to live a good life, you must be like Jinling City, and no longer under the jurisdiction of Tang Yizhi!

At this time, some people couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I just hope that Zhang Xianbo can come soon and take Quzhou City, and then it will be the same as Jinling, so that everyone can live a good life!" ”

"yes, yes! I don't care about you! Anyway, as long as Uncle Zhang calls, if I can use my place, I will help Uncle Zhang no matter what! ”

"Do you still need to say that? Now who doesn't know that Zhang Xianbo is a person who works for the welfare of the people of the world? If he comes, everyone will naturally help him! ”

"In that case, then you say, do we need to gather everyone, when Uncle Zhang County attacks the city, let's join forces with Uncle Zhang County, open the city gate inside, and let Uncle Zhang County enter the city directly?"

As soon as the man said this, the crowd was silent for a while.

Support is support, but if this man does what he says, it will be an uprising!

It's good that Zhang Twelve succeeded, but if he didn't succeed, they would only have to kill their heads!

After a while, someone said, "That's not necessary, right?" I heard that Zhang Xianbo has great powers, and the Xiao Li flying knife in one hand is even more superb, and it is easy to enter the city! ”

"Yes, yes!"

Everyone quickly chimed in.
