The chaos first erupted near the city of Anyi, triggered by salt workers who had been unable to exchange grain for two months.

Although salt is usually expensive, after the drought and locust plague, the price of grain has jumped higher than the price of salt, because food can make people starve to death, but salt cannot do it. So even if they took the salt and sold it privately, they wouldn't be able to exchange it for a grain of corn in the nearby villages.

So the salt workers were driven to a dead end, and after being rejected by the city officials again, they couldn't help it when they saw the grain carts passing by. The city officials who insulted them were dragged downstairs and trampled to death, and after killing the people who stood in the way, the salt workers began to loot the food in the market, and gradually spread to the point of plundering everything they could eat, first stuffing it into their mouths, and then putting it into their pockets until they could no longer put it down.

There were no noble slogans or motives for this revolt, it was a purely instinctive riot of hunger, but the consequences were not expected.

In the past few months, not only have the salt workers been starving, but there are also many Chinese people in and around Anyi who are hungry, and whether they have land or not, they have no food at home, so they can only wander the streets to find work. The salt workers' revolt aroused their eagerness to join in the looting, and soon the huge city of Anyi was in chaos, and the chaos even triggered a chain reaction in the city, and the crowds of beggars in the streets began to rush into the homes of the Chinese people to rob.

The gloomy and oppressive tide of anger erupted completely, and the ragged and hungry people were immersed in the carnival, forgetting one thing.

The head of the Wei family is a cold-blooded politician, not Cao Bo who only knows how to hunt, and not even the Wei Hou who can't even clean up the people under his rule.

Less than half an hour after the start of the riots, the city of Anyi had all fallen, and the chaos was still spreading to the nearby streets, but the salt workers, rangers, and poor people who were indulged in looting did not realize that danger was approaching.

The sound of footsteps sounded in front of the rioters, and what appeared in front of the rioters was a group of heavily armed soldiers armed to the teeth.

They were tall, dressed in heavy armor, armed with bronze swords, carrying bows and crossbows, and straddled arrows, and walked silently from the barracks into the streets.

This is the Wei Wushu who almost defeated the Qin people in the Battle of Hexi!

The salt workers and rebels who were pulling a cart of grain outside the market, trying to go out of the city and go home to give their wives a good meal, froze, they looked at the slowly approaching invincible phalanx, the armor soldiers in the front row raised their large oars one by one, and the spears were flattened in the gap, so that they could not cross, and in the back row, the cold bows and crossbows were already aimed at them.

"Wait......" The salt workers and the paupers suddenly came to their senses, and in the face of this invincible force, they involuntarily put down the food in their hands, and wanted to kneel down and surrender and ask for forgiveness.

However, the general on the opposite side waved his hand mercilessly, and countless crossbow arrows shot out from Wei Wu's pawn, tearing the defenseless hungry people to pieces!

In the past, many of these warriors were also born as salt workers, and in the past, they walked the streets with today's rioting hungry people, collected salt for Wei in the salt ponds under the scorching sun, and even drank under the mulberry trees in Lilu at sunset......

But today, in the face of their former neighbors and the village party, they did not hesitate to raise their butcher knives.

The spearmen parted on both sides, and they rushed into the market, raising their weapons, and slaughtered the hungry people who were looting.

The Wei learned from Zhao Wuxian a powerful battle array and weaponry, which were used to slaughter civilians with a very low degree of organization very quickly, and with more than 100 Wei soldiers advancing on all sides, this small riot was quickly suppressed, and a few people tried to flee into the surrounding streets and alleys, while the rest chose to surrender on the spot.

But what awaited them was a cruel punishment, and Wei Wushu did not stop attacking, but pointed arrows and spears at those who were already lying on the ground begging for mercy.

At the head of Anyi City, watching the blood flowers bloom in the city, Lu Xing's face was unbearable.

"Uncle, will you kill too much, it will hurt benevolence......" Lu Xing is a brave general who has fought many times, but he has a pimple in his heart about the slaughter of civilians, especially Wei's own people.

"It's to make an example." The head of the family, Wei Manduo, had no mercy, and he coldly taught Lu Xing: "Don't believe in any benevolence, the nature of people in the world is to bully the weak and fear the hard, and they have to make inches of progress." Therefore, it is better to make the people fear the lord than to make them love him. ”

The martial arts created by Wei Ju are the best basis for Wei's fear.

What's more, it is more convenient to kill some rebels than to find food to feed them.

In politics, the monarch should only consider what is effective and harmful, not what is right and what is wrong, and should have the purpose of governing the country in his heart, not benevolence and benevolence.

Although I haven't read the monarchy theory, this is precisely Wei Mando's strategy for governing the family. The soldiers began to chase and suppress the chaotic people scattered in various streets and alleys, and this small turmoil will be calmed down in the near future, and hundreds of thousands of people in Hedong and Hexi are still firmly in his hands.

As long as they ensure that Wei Wushu is well fed and clothed, they will work hard for the Wei clan and suppress all those who disobey!

He ordered: "Let all the mob at the head be put on display, and the sin will not be forgiven!" Then take the heirs of his family and send them to Hexi to serve hard labor! ”

……

Holding the bloody grain in her arms, the daughter of the salt family cried into tears.

Her father died, in a rain of arrows fired by Wei Wushu, and before he died, he shoved a packet of corn into her hand, told her to go, let her go out of the city, and brought the grain to her mother and younger siblings, who were anxiously waiting at home.

"Useless daughter, get out!" The old salt worker's last rebuke hissed to his heart, and his withered hand, which had become ugly after years of labor, shoved her away, but the daughter of the salt family seemed to see him weeping.

She staggered out of the market with the chaotic and frightened crowd, and everyone worked together to tear down the walls of the city and make a way out of the city, and enter the endless Anyi Lilu.

It's also a chaotic world, with hungry people rushing in the market and sporadic looting continuing.

The daughter of the Yan clan is a weak woman, although her face is full of tears, she still has a bit of a look, and she still holds a bag of food in her arms, which is simply the best target for the hungry. The package in her hand was quickly snatched away, and a group of hungry people covered in sweat surrounded her with malicious intent, trying to defile her in the corner.

When it was too late, the three hungry people who had forgotten their sights were hit by a stone, and their heads were bleeding, and when they looked up, they saw a man with a long sword and a light man standing on the roof, looking at them fiercely, with a slingshot in his hand, and another stone was already aimed at them.

"Why don't you get out of here?"

A few hungry people scolded and carried the grain away, but as soon as they stepped out of the street, they fell to the ground like wheat that had fallen in the wind. The screams of the hungry people came from the street outside, and they were like the screams of animals, and then the iron hooves of Wei's newly established cavalry trampled over and trampled to death those who dared to flee, and the hungry people were also shot to death by them, and they also looked into the alleys, and saw that there were no people to beat their horses and leave.

And the daughter of the Yan family was pulled into the crack of the wall by the light man, and escaped a catastrophe, and after Wei rode away outside, the light man scolded: "Before entering the martial arts, he was just an evil boy on the street, and he forgot his book when he got the field." ”

The daughter of the Yan clan looked at him tremblingly, and then said in surprise: "It's you!" ”

……

By the next day, the small riot in Anyi had completely subsided, and the streets were bustling again, and there was no sign that they had fallen into a frenzy.

Sure enough, as Wei Mando said, after seeing the blood and corpses, the people of Anyi did not dare to make another attempt even if they were hungry. In line with this idea of making the people "afraid", the head of the Wei family also asked the heads of those slaughtered salt workers to be inserted into the city.

And the daughter of the salt clan looked at the human head on the city wall, grief-stricken and trembling.

"That's my father." She said to the light man next to her that he was his husband's robe and governor, and that he had come to the house to drink when he was in Xinjiang, and that she had also asked him about her husband after the war.

The light hero Du Qiu glanced at the head of the city, and on the rammed earth wall of Anyi, every five feet, there were pheasants for the archers to use, and those heads were located between the pheasants, and they were stuck in the tips of the spears, like ripe berries on the branches, red and black.

"It's so far away, it doesn't have to be your father."

"It must be, I know ...... beard," the daughter of the salt clan insisted on not leaving, her eyes searched the city, and finally found her eldest brother, who was wooden but loved her, the third brother who was anxious, and a few distant brothers who were also salt workers. There was a large row of more than 100 on the battlements, facing the outside of the city, and under their dead noses, there was the bustling streets and the afterglow of the sunset.

Seeing so many familiar people die unexpectedly, the body of the daughter of the Yan clan is trembling, and if it weren't for the protection of the governor in the past two days, her head may also be in the city.

But even if the governor protects her out of the city, what will she do in the future? The men of Yanchi-eup were revolted, and it was heard that the officials of the city had led troops to the eup, and the women and children would be taken as concubines, while the men were forcibly taken to Hexi to serve hard labor.

Her home is certainly no exception, and even if she goes back, it is estimated that it will be an empty piece of rubble.

Du Qiu pointed out a clear way for her: "I have a way, I can ask Shang Jia to take you to the Zhao family's territory, there is no war there, and a person can be fed and clothed if he has a skill." ”

As he spoke, he also stuffed a piece of cold stuff into her hand, and when the daughter of the salt clan opened it, she saw that it was a piece of gold of good color! At least one or two! That's enough to get a large piece of farmland.

"This ...... It's too precious for a concubine to accept. Although her husband was still there, she also lived a life of fine clothes and food for a period of time, and there was no shortage of gold and silver utensils at home, so she knew that this kind of gold was the coin of the southern Chu State. There were quite a few in the family back then. But when the Zhi clan was defeated and she escaped incognito from Jiangdu as a sinner, she lost everything.

She went from being a scholar's wife to a widowed daughter of the Yan family, and now she is an orphan girl who has lost her relatives.

But the governor of the enemy cannot be distinguished, "Boqian is my brother, you are my sister-in-law, not to mention that I am also entrusted by others, why should you refuse!" ”

At the mention of that person's words, the daughter of the Yan clan suddenly became excited, and hurriedly asked: "Is he still alive, he asked you to come to me and give me a way to live?" ”

"Not really." Du Qiu sighed, "I was afraid that my sister-in-law would be sad before, so I didn't dare to say it frankly, so I'll tell you everything now." Yu Rang is dead, died in the Battle of Changping, buried on the shore of the bones and less water, and there is no Yu Boqian in the world from then on. Listen to my brother's words, forget about him, go to the Zhao family's territory and settle down, find a good person to marry, and live a good life! ”
