Three days later, the porridge factory of the Dragon King Temple on Changsheng Island. A man who looked like a family member stood on the high platform and said loudly: "There is no food, my lord has to let you group of mud legs eat even if there is a mountain of grain." ”
His words immediately made the people below clamour. "Out of food? Didn't you say that the grain on Changsheng Island was piled up like a mountain when you came, and you couldn't eat it for ten years? ”
"That's right! The merchant who put me on board said the same thing! This ** businessman, find them to settle accounts? ”
"That's right! Find them! ”
When the family on the stage heard this, they almost didn't fall off the stage. I almost messed up the matter, and I immediately remedied it.
"Folks! Our lord has no food, but the Changxing army in Beishan does! They still have meat to eat every day! Let's go to Beishan to eat! ”
The people are not stupid, they know that there is a team called the Changxing Army stationed in Beishan. They had seen the drills of this team, and the soldiers were all physically strong and well-trained. If they go to Beishan to make trouble, it is likely that the food will not arrive, but will be killed there.
Just as they hesitated, someone in the crowd shouted, "Yes! Go to Kitayama! They recruited us in the first place, and now I go to them for evaluation if we don't have anything to eat. Why should we starve to death if they eat with a mouth full of oil? ”
Then a group of people walked to Beishan, and the others saw that someone had passed, for fear that they would be late, and the food would be robbed by others, and they all followed one after another.
More and more people joined the crowd, and in a blink of an eye, a crowd of 10,000 people was formed towards Changxinggou.
Qin Shi immediately received the news that someone was inciting hungry people to make trouble, and immediately ordered all soldiers to go to the wall to guard Changxing Ditch. This is Zhang Dou's base camp, their foundation, and there must be no mistakes.
When he saw the crowd of black presses, his hands and feet were cold. With so many hungry people, if he desperately attacked Changxinggou, would he really be able to hold it?
In particular, many of those recruits are related to the hungry people below, can they follow the orders to attack the hungry people?
These questions instantly filled Qin Shi's heart, and the second dog behind him was also full of cold sweat. The recruits were also so frightened that their hands and feet weakened, and some of them secretly turned their heads, unable to bear to look down.
When the hungry people crowded the front of Changxinggou, a man shouted, "We want to eat!" We want food! ”
His voice instantly moved all the hungry people, and they shouted along. Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, like huge waves constantly slapping against the wall, making the wall crumbling.
Suddenly, a woman's heart-rending cry caught everyone's attention. I saw a middle-aged man fall to the ground, and the woman kept crying: "Be in charge!" Wake up! Didn't you say that you would be able to live on Eternal Island? Hurry up! Don't scare me! ”
Her cry was like a sledgehammer hitting everyone's hearts, and they couldn't understand why the people of Immortal Island had gone to great lengths to get them to the island without caring whether they were alive or dead.
The resentment of the people reached its peak at once, and a man stood up, and he shouted: "Kill it!" Grab the food! ”
The hungry people were stunned for a moment, they didn't think about killing, but this sentence seemed to remind them. Their eyes grew red, and everyone's wheezing grew heavier.
Qin Shi on the wall of the wall could see that a big battle was inevitable. He quietly asked 500 veterans to stand behind the recruits, put the recruits in front, and killed them as soon as anyone retreated.
Changxinggou is the foundation of the eldest brother Zhang Dou, even if he is broken, he has to defend this place for the eldest brother.
The crowd suddenly fell silent, and they all seemed to be waiting for something. Everyone knew that breaking this short silence would inevitably be a bloody storm, and people were tense and nervous, as long as someone gave an order, they would be killed.
At this time, a person ran in from outside the ditch, this person was holding a huge steamed bun in his hand, and he shouted as he ran: "The imperial fleet has arrived!" The grain ships are spread all over the sea of the Dragon King Temple, everyone go and help the court unload the grain! Give a bag of grain for a day's work! ”
The silence was broken by the man's voice, and the people were stunned for a moment, then turned around and surrounded the man.
"Is it true?"
"Is it really from the imperial court?"
……
The man didn't expect so many people to gather here, and he looked at the crowd in panic. A little overwhelmed and said: "Many people have seen it, and many people have gone to unload food." There were hundreds of them. I don't know how many people the court wants, and if I go late, I may not have a place. ”
His words made the hungry people angry for a while, and they raised their eyes. There were already a few people running towards the ditch, and they couldn't help it.
Unloading the ship and giving a bag of food, this good thing is a way to live on this famine-ridden island of eternal life. No one wanted to be left behind, and they rushed to the Dragon King Temple.
Sun Youcai's family and gentry and military households who were mixed in the crowd were dumbfounded, originally they had planned everything. Just wait for the hungry people to break through the Changxing ditch so that the Changxing army can be driven out of Changsheng Island! As a result, they all took off their pants, but the person in front of them was gone.
Just playing a fart on their own, some people who don't give up still want to continue to agitate the hungry. They kept shouting: "This is all a scam of the Changxing Army, don't believe it!" It's all fake. Get back! It's right for everyone to go back and attack Changxinggou! ”
The people are not stupid, whether they really see it to know. If you attack Changxinggou here, you will be looking for death! Who will work hard if they have a way to live!
Several of them tried to stop the hungry people, and they also took out iron rulers to drive the hungry people back. But they forgot one thing, that no one could stop the more than 10,000 hungry people from running. There was only one end for daring to stand in front of them, and a few of Sun Youcai's family members were instantly submerged in the sea of people, and after the hungry people left, only a few piles of rotten meat were left underground.
Zhang Dou stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the vast sea, and sighed in his heart! Nurhachi, Huang Taiji, I'm back Zhang Dou!
At this time, a person walked behind him, "Virtuous nephew! Is Immortal Island really as huge as you say? Is there really a hundred miles around? ”
"Uncle Shi! No one will lie to you! When you get to Changsheng Island, you will know everything! Zhang Dou replied.
Zhang Dou stayed in Dengzhou for a month in order to prepare the grain and grass needed by 20,000 people, as well as hundreds of artisan households accompanying him.
In order to raise these things for Zhang Dou, Yuan Keli also made great efforts. It took a month of busy work to gather all kinds of goods, and Sun Yuanhua became the first parent official of Changsheng County without exception.
Although Sun Yuanhua, who was born in a person, was talented, he devoted all his energy to Western studies. I didn't pay so much attention to the articles of the Four Books, Five Classics and Eight Strands, so I didn't get into the exam until I was 30 years old.
If he hadn't studied under Xu Guangqi and was proficient in firearms, he wouldn't have been able to supervise Denglai's ordnance at all.
This time, Yuan Keli wanted to set up a county on Changsheng Island, and as soon as the officials of Denglai inquired about the location of Changsheng Island, they shook their heads like rattles.
Just kidding, it's in Liaodong. And it has been less than a month since it was taken from Jiannu, and it is only less than 3 miles by sea from Jiannu's land.
That's 3 miles, not 30 miles. That is, Jiannu can hit the island by throwing a cannon to the shore. Who would dare to go to such a dangerous place! Isn't this a long life of idleness?
When no one was willing to go, this county order naturally fell on Sun Yuanhua's head. Hehe! Zhang Dou was found by him, so naturally this pit had to be filled by Sun Yuanhua.
In this way, Sun Yuanhua was appointed as the first commander of Changshengdao County. And he is also a bare-pole commander, and there are no scribes, masters, and officials, and only a set of honor guards for the county order.
Sun Yuanhua, who was helpless, could only bring 5 people to the nursing home at home, and Governor Yuan Keli sent 5 more guards, and finally gathered the personnel of the honor guard. In this way, the most shabby county order in history finally appeared on the scene, sounding the clarion call for a counterattack on Liaodong.
They haven't reached Immortal Island yet! I met the merchants who escaped from Changsheng Island, and not all of them participated in the operation against the Changxing Army. Most of the merchants were still on the sidelines, and today they found that the hungry people had gone to besiege Changxinggou, for fear of being implicated, and fled from Changsheng Island on a ship.
As soon as he sailed out of Changsheng Island, he saw the shadow of a sail like a forest on the sea. A large number of sea ships were heading towards Changsheng Island, and when the merchants saw clearly that it was the banner of the Ming Dynasty, their hearts suddenly became alive.
They immediately leaned in and began to tell Zhang Dou about the situation on Changsheng Island.
Zhang Dou also broke out in a cold sweat after hearing about the situation on Changsheng Island, fortunately he came back in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Virtuous nephew! Changsheng Island can't be chaotic, we must quell the hunger and rebellion as soon as possible, be fast! Sun Yuanhua said urgently.
Changsheng Island is also under his rule, and there is such a big mess before he takes office, so you can imagine Sun Yuanhua's mood, he now wants to jump into the sea and swim to the island to quell the riots.
"Uncle Shi doesn't have to worry! It's just a hungry people, and the little nephew has his own plan. Even those greedy businessmen, the little nephew will not let go! Zhang Douyin said compassionately.
