Chapter 20 Outbreak Tipping Point
Liu Yue was now full of confidence in Yang Feng's decision to go to Montenegro, because he had seen Yang Feng's prestige among the local people of Montenegro with his own eyes.
I saw that after Yang Feng listened to what the people said to him, he himself knew that he might really succeed in going to Montenegro this time.
Yang Feng said to the people who surrounded him with tears and sweat: "Okay, fathers and fellow villagers, be quiet first, your situation, I, Yang Feng, are clear." ”
"What you mean, basically mean that since I, Yang Feng, left Montenegro, Montenegro has changed again, hasn't it? You've had a better life just now, and now you're running out of it, aren't you? Yang Feng helped a young man who injured his foot because of Yuan Shao's carrying grain and grass and said: "You all rest assured, I, Yang Feng, are back, this time I, Yang Feng, came back to Montenegro to lead everyone to live a better life!" ”
"Well, it's good that Yang Er is the master of the house, so that we have the backbone." A middle-aged man with a meaty face kicked the cart carrying grain and grass to the ground, raised his hands and said: "Listen to me, don't forget what we used to do, now Yuan Shao has forced us to have no way to live, work for him, don't even give him food, what are you doing for him?" Throw it away, throw it all away, let's follow Yang Er to take charge of the house, go up the mountain and fall into the grass! ”
In the Montenegro region, Yuan Shao collected taxes again and again in order to collect military rations, which has made the people quite angry, and in addition, so many passes have been built in the Montenegrin region, most of which are recruited by the local people of Montenegro to help build and do those jobs. But if you don't have a salary, the most you can do is provide a lunch at noon, and most of them are thin and add some black steamed buns. Right now. In the Montenegro region, it has been made as if the local people are Yuan Shao's free labor.
Speaking of which, most of the people in the Montenegro region have actually been bandits and robbers, everyone is brave and ruthless, and the people are quite strong, it stands to reason. The people who can't bear the hardships of Yuan Shao, the government, should have rebelled a long time ago, how can Yuan Shao still be properly governed until now?
In fact. All of this is Yuan Shao's light that occupies Liu Yi, and the light of Yang Feng, Tian Feng and others.
When Zhang Yan of Montenegro was destroyed at the beginning, in order to facilitate the governance of Montenegro, because the people in Montenegro were living very hard. Lewis hoped that a little relief could be given. So that the people of Montenegro can live.
Therefore, at that time, Tian Feng and Yang Feng almost all acted in accordance with the policies of the New Han Dynasty. From the very beginning, a roster was registered for the people of Montenegro, and according to the names on the roster, subsidies and relief were given and their production activities were arranged.
Later, Tian Feng and Yang Feng. Even after the officials such as the frustration were gone, the roster of the Montenegro region or something. All fell into the hands of Yuan Shao's government.
At the beginning, they could barely carry out production according to the original policy methods, and the people in Montenegro saw more or less hope that they could live a stable life and support their wives and children. Even after Tian Feng, Yang Feng and others left, the government asked the people of Montenegro to increase taxes or something, and they paid them in full. Because the people still thought that Tian Feng, Yang Feng and others asked for it.
The people received the favor of Tian Feng and Yang Feng, and their lives could barely pass, and everyone had a heart to repay their kindness and paid taxes on the remaining money and grain obtained from production and labor. Later, Yuan Shao added some more, and the people could still tighten their belts and free up some money and food. Even, Yuan Shao recruited the people to build passes, etc., thinking that it was the meaning of Tian Feng, Yang Feng and others. Later, the people found out that Tian Feng and Yang Feng had already left Montenegro, and now the chief official who governs them is not the official they want to repay and obey.
The hearts of the people finally understood what it meant to be called a son of heaven and a courtier, and some people were replaced to govern them, so that they could know who was good and who was the one who really treated them well.
However, at this time, the people woke up a little late, because their rosters were in the hands of the government, and anyone who dared not obey the orders of the government, disobeyed the government, was unwilling to pay taxes according to the amount, and was unwilling to build a pass for the government, would be condemned, imprisoned, or even killed.
The people of Montenegro, although they are fierce, but if they have a family and a room, for the sake of their families, most of them dare not speak out, so they have to swallow their anger and obey the orders of Yuan Shao's official government.
For the time being, the people in Montenegro have not been forced to the point where they can't live, so there is no big problem for the time being.
In private, many people in Montenegro who are already good and have no families have already returned to their old jobs and gone up the mountain to the grass. It's just that after going up the mountain, their lives are even more difficult, because, after the good bandits, they finally found out in their conscience, they are thieves again, whose money and food can they steal? The Black Mountain area is full of Yuan Shao's officers and soldiers, and once they show up, they may be captured by Yuan Shao's army. Therefore, their life is still sad, and once they go up the mountain to become a coward, their names will be on the wanted list, and it will be difficult to be good again.
In this way, most of the people of Montenegro who are really determined to fall into the grass actually leave the Montenegrin area and go to other places to find another way out.
In addition, some people who still have a little bit of knowledge, they inquired everywhere about the whereabouts of Tian Feng, Yang Feng and others, and they hoped that these officials who could really do good for their people could come back to govern them.
Anyway, the people in the Black Mountain region, they are becoming more and more dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's rule, as long as a little spark falls among the people, it will spark the prairie fire.
Bang bang bang!
There was a sound of smashing things, and the more than 1,000 people were a little excited and threw the carts or flat burdens in their hands to the ground, and shouted in a surging voice:
"Yes, yes, Yang Er is in charge, we can't survive, you can take us up the mountain and fall into the grass together, we will all work against Yuan Shao's officers and soldiers! We're the opposite! It's not like I haven't done it! ”
"Yang Er is in charge, we all listen to you, Montenegro will always be our Montenegro, when will Yuan Shao come to be a blessing?"
……
Historically, Yuan Shao has always been helpless against Zhang Yan of Montenegro, and even if Yuan Shao died, Zhang Yan of Montenegro is still alive and well, and he can still be crowned a marquis. Why did Yuan Shao never bring the Montenegro region under his rule? In the final analysis, this is the reason why Yuan Shao's governance policy is too brutal.
Well, it's hard to imagine that after the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes, how could a person who has lived a pampered life since he was a child know how to govern the people? What does he know what the people need? He didn't know anything. This is not to say that Yuan Shao's intention is not that he doesn't want to govern the people in his powerful territory, the key is that he doesn't know how to do it well. In many cases, when civil affairs are carried out, it is usually the people around them, or the strategists and generals under them, who say they want to do whatever they want. For example, the problem of taxation, people around me say that now that the army is short of food, it has to collect some from the people. Yuan Shao heard it, well, okay, then levy it.
Hehe, it is conceivable that Yuan Shao ordered the expropriation, and when it came to the officials at the next level, they naturally wanted to get a little benefit from it, and the officials at the next level were the same, and so on. If it is said according to the head, one pound of grain will be collected, and the order is given below, I am afraid that it will cost ten pounds and a hundred pounds. If this continues, will the people below be burdened?
Perhaps, Yuan Shao is not brutal, but there is no court like the New Han Dynasty, where the government decrees are strictly enforced, and there will definitely be a lot of corruption problems in the general political group. In fact, even in the New Han Dynasty, there will be some illegal things of officials from time to time, but only with effective supervision, there are no big problems.
The current people of Montenegro have reached an outbreak point, and it depends on how to detonate it.
Yang Feng was made to cry and laugh by the shouts of these people, he jumped on a boulder in three or two steps, and pressed his hands: "Brothers of Montenegro, how are you hearing about me first?" In particular, stop yelling, we are all around us now, there are Yuan Shao's military horses, and there will be patrols from time to time, so I will make a long story short. ”
"First of all, everyone should have known that Lu Dao had already taken refuge in the New Han Dynasty and served Taifu Liu Yi back then. Therefore, there is no need to mention the matter of falling early. Yang Feng said: "Secondly, there may be some people who don't know the way, now, our New Han Dynasty has begun to send troops to unify the Han Dynasty, and the first thing to be seized is our Black Mountain region." Let me tell you, after our Xinhan army captures Montenegro, in the future, I, Yang Feng, will be the chief officer of the Montenegrin region, and in the future, I will not leave, I will lead everyone to truly live and work in peace and contentment. ”
"Really?"
"Hmm!"
"In the future, you will not leave Montenegro and leave us in the future?"
"No, Montenegro is my Yang Feng's home, where else can I go?" Yang Feng affirmed.
"It's great......"
……
The people all looked elated, and with Yang Feng's promise, they were all relieved.
"However, there are still some difficulties." Yang Feng said: "In order to prevent our New Han army from entering the Black Mountain region, Yuan Shao sent a large number of military horses to guard the passes of various roads. It's not that our Xinhan army can't conquer those passes, but if it is a strong attack, I'm afraid our soldiers will also have great sacrifices. Therefore, I, Yang Feng, plan to start a rebellion in Montenegro, everyone raised troops, turned against Yuan Shao, and defected to the New Han Dynasty together, everyone said, okay? ”
"Okay, let's all listen to Yang Er, do what you say!"
Yang Feng is the backbone of these Montenegrin people, how can the people not follow it?
Then, Yang Feng asked the people about the current situation in various parts of the Montenegro region, and then instructed these people to quickly contact the people in various parts of Montenegro. Mainly some people who are relatively famous and have been dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's official mansion, everyone agreed, tonight, as long as they see a fire on Montenegro, they will revolt together, and the people of Montenegro will revolt with 10,000 people!
