176 The White Robe Army (Today's Chapter 2)
(It's not that I'm going to drag the plot, and there's no need for that, it's just going to cause me damage.) There are really too many people to introduce, and these are not tricks, and they are all very influential in this book. )
Zhang Geng nodded and said: "The first problem is our name, since we have decided to rebel, we must have a name, the miserable people who are oppressed by corrupt officials and corrupt officials in this world, I don't know how many, we have to let them mention our name, they know that this is the righteous army, and they are here to rescue them!" You can't scream like mobs and bandits, if that's the case, what's the difference between us and ordinary bandits? So, we've got to find a name, I have an idea. Everyone also knows that my Zhang family is in the coarse cloth business, and my Zhang family still has 30,000 undyed white cloths at home, and I am willing to take them out to make clothes for our rebels. ”
"White-robed rebels? Good! Huan Xinchen applauded: "Forty-five years ago, the army of Liu Liu and Liu Qi of Bazhou, which is only dozens of miles away, rose up and seized a large number of white cloths, and all the soldiers were wearing white clothes and white robes. Let's come up with this name, when there are many descendants of the white-robed army! ”
"Then it's settled." Zhang Geng smiled and continued: "The second thing is to set the name of the charter!" ”
"As the saying goes, there are no rules, there is no circle, since our righteous army is open, we must also set rules! According to my meaning, I will first be a big leader, Uncle Shi, you will be a second leader, and my uncle, Uncle Wang, is also very experienced, and when he was young, he was a well-known leader, so he became a third leader. What's going on in the future, let's discuss it together? How is it? ”
As soon as the words fell, the little boy showed indignation on his face, and when he opened his mouth to say something, he was slapped hard on the shoulder by his father, so he had to shut up. Eun Xinchen bowed his head and said: "This also makes it!" ”
In fact, it is understandable to do this, Zhang Geng is now the most powerful, it is natural to be the big leader, he is the big leader, then Eun Xinchen can only be the second leader. In addition to him, one is a childish boy, and the other is a thug who can only shout and beat, and he is not suitable to be the leader, and the three leaders naturally fell into the hands of Zhang Geng.
Zhang Geng said again: "There are a lot of people outside, but the old, weak, sick and disabled will definitely not succeed, even if these people join the righteous army, it is only a drag, just now I have ordered someone to check, and the young and middle-aged people who can become an army are about 3,000 people." Most of these 3,000 people have been mastered by my Zhang family's buddies, and of course, there are also many in the hands of the Hada masters. I mean, if you reorganize these people, ten people will be a small banner, one hundred people will be one hundred households, and on my side, I will be in charge of twenty hundred households, and on your side, I will be in charge of ten, how about it? ”
The strength is not as good as others, and Eun Xinchen naturally listened to everything, so he also followed.
Zhang Geng nodded with satisfaction: "The third and most important thing, where do we go from here?" ”
As soon as they heard him say this, everyone immediately sat up and put on a serious look, in the final analysis, everyone's future and wealth now depend on the next action. If it succeeds, everyone will naturally be rich and prosperous, and if it fails, what's the point of fighting in the nest at this time? Just wait for the guillotine together!
Huan Xinchen knocked on the handrail and said worriedly: "Big Chief, our four counties have made Zhou Papi clean up, and the people hate the government to the core, plus they have suffered from Ma Zheng for a long time, and the people are extremely angry. Therefore, in the land of these four counties, there is no need to worry, as long as our army is one to one, it will immediately be a follower. But what if you go out of these four counties? ”
"Second leader, don't worry, you don't farm at home, and you can't feel it, my Zhang family originally had 30,000 acres of land!" Zhang Geng said in a deep voice: "Since the beginning of summer, the entire northern Shandong Province, Jinan Prefecture, Qingzhou Mansion, Zhili Hejian Mansion and other places, there has not been a single rain, the fields are dry and cracked, a piece of yellow, no harvest of grains, a great famine is inevitable. A few days ago, there was still food in the government's warehouse, but the food was almost used up. Now the price of grain is rising everywhere, and the price of grain in Jinan Prefecture has risen to one stone of rice and eight cents of silver, an increase of as much as sixty percent. ”
There was a hint of hatred on his face, which was fleeting: "The little nephew has already finished his business this time and turned around from Yanjing, just to look around at the price of grain to see if there is anything that can do a big business, so he came back late." It's just that he escaped because of this! Hey, hey, it's a man! ”
He sneered a few times, and said, "Second leader, you don't need to worry about this. ”
Zhang Geng no longer calls Uncle Shi, one by one, the two leaders are called, and Eun Xinchen also tastes it, obviously Zhang Geng wants to deliberately emphasize the humility of the upper and lower levels.
"The most important thing now is how to do it now! I have sent men to seal the four gates, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave, and no word will be spread from this city. However, this trick can't last long, and you must come up with a charter immediately, otherwise, people's hearts will be scattered, and everyone's spirit will be gone. ”
Eun Xinchen heard the song and knew the elegance, got up and hugged his fists and said: "Since we have already served the big leader, naturally everything is up to you!" ”
Wang Zixiang and He Laomao stood up together, hugged their fists and said, "Everything is decided by the big leader!" ”
Hanut Moor and Euntu also had to stand up and serve the great chief.
"Good!" Zhang Geng laughed: "Then it's disrespectful." ”‘
He cleared his throat and said, "We have four major difficulties now, the first is lack of money!" The second pile, lack of ordnance! The third pile, unorganized! The upper situation cannot be issued. The fourth pile, there is no goal, I don't know whether to stick to it or to wander. ”
Therefore, the next action should be aimed at these three major difficulties. Money is not a problem, Zhou Xingbo's tax collectors have amassed a lot of wealth, and we will go out and raid their homes later, I estimate that there are always tens of thousands of taels of silver. This money is our military salary, which will be sent down first to boost morale. As for their wives and daughters,"
Zhang Geng's face changed for a moment, he remembered his little sister who was abused and hanged, his heart immediately became extremely hard, he gritted his teeth, and said coldly: "Three leaders, you are responsible for establishing a military battalion and taking them in." Those tax collectors do all kinds of evil, and their families will also have to pay the price! In war, there is tension and relaxation is the last word, and our brothers sometimes have to be happy. ”
Huan Xinchen's face was ugly and said, "Big leader, this, I'm afraid that something is wrong, right?" We're ...... rebels."
"Nothing wrong!" Zhang Geng interrupted him, with an indifferent face: "What about the righteous army?" Didn't the rebels rise with blood? There is also a saying in the imperial court that a person commits a crime, and his wife and daughter are sold as slaves, why can't we do it? These tax collectors follow Zhou to fight for the tiger, and I don't think it's too light to punish them! ”
Eun Tu said a few words in his father's ear, and Eun Xinchen sighed and stopped talking.
