Zhang Weili came to Wang Jiayin's hands and received a lot of rewards, in addition to Wang Jiayin, Queen Zhang also rewarded his younger brother. The leaders of the peasant army also gave gifts one after another to show their closeness. One of them, Wang Guozhong, is very compatible with Zhang Weili.

Although Wang Guozhong's position is not very high, he also has Wang Jiayin's trust, because Wang Guozhong is Wang Jiayin's fellow villager and brother of the same clan. Zhang Weili and Wang Guozhong have never participated in the battle of the peasant army, they both rely on the identity of relatives, the situation is similar, the position is comparable, the temperament is quite similar, plus Zhang Wei's flattery, the two of them are so good that they almost talk about nothing.

And then an incident happened that made Zhang Weili and Wang Guozhong even closer, and this incident was that Wang Guozhong was beaten.

Wang Guozhong actually deserved to be beaten because he robbed the people's daughters.

It stands to reason that robbing the people's women was not a problem at all in the initial stage of the peasant uprising, everyone was like this, and no one could say whether they were black or not. However, as the power of the peasant army continued to expand, some leaders of the peasant army realized that if the possibility of a successful rebellion increased, it was impossible to disturb the people. Although the number of people who thought this way was not too large in the peasant army, the most important people determined the direction of the peasant army during this period.

This includes Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong, Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng and others. The change in the concept of these people is actually inseparable from Li Guo. Because Li Guo once tirelessly said that the power of the common people is infinite. The common people are water, the peasant army is fish, and so on.

When Li Guo said it at the beginning, these people were still impatient, but the successive failures made these people feel that what Li Guo said was reasonable.

So, as soon as Wang Jiayin arrived in Yangcheng, he formulated a decree not to disturb the people, of course, the peasant army sometimes carried out some killing and looting in order to collect grain, these, Wang Jiayin could only open his eyes and close his eyes, what to eat without food?

However, the superficial article still needs to be done, which shows that the peasant army uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty was only a struggle within the system of a single feudal dynasty to overthrow another feudal dynasty.

The most quickly appeased the people's hearts was the intrusion on the female dependents of the common people, although men were inferior to women at that time, but female dependents were always regarded as men's accessories. When the female dependents were harassed, in addition to the women being disgraced, the men and the men's families were also disgraced.

Robbing people's daughters is naturally the top priority!

Wang Guozhong's job is to rob the people's daughters.

In fact, the loyal daughter of the kingdom is not a virgin martyr, but a widow*. It is said that the widow has been absent for many years, and when he looks at the two people next to him, he naturally holds back the fire in his heart. The widow had a few colors, and began to show off his branches, attracting bees and butterflies, and a few men were not clear. The family shows up all day long, and it is not a system. The in-laws' family was angry and had to take care of it several times, but the widow* was not jealous, and after a few quarrels, the in-laws were silent.

One day, the widow* went to the market again, and unfortunately Wang Guozhong met him. Wang Guozhong was originally a countryman, and most of the women at that time lived in a simple place, which was not easy to see, and suddenly saw a beautiful young lady with flowers and branches, and the lust in his heart burned.

Wang Guozhong looked at the widow* and waved his hand to the pro-soldiers, who were very sensible and took the little lady away like wolves.

Hearing the news that the widow was taken, the widow's in-laws and uncles were hesitating and wanted to sue, but the peasant army was like a wolf and a tiger after all, and they didn't dare. If you don't go, you can't get over it on face.

At this time, Wang Jiayin didn't know where to learn the news that Wang Guozhong robbed the people's daughters. Wang Jiayin was about to be killed as an example, and when he heard that Wang Guozhong was in turmoil, Wang Jiayin was on fire at that time, so Lao Tzu's words were not taken seriously! And the robbery of the people's daughter itself did not make him so angry, because his own daughter-in-law was also robbed, but it was just early. But it is disrespectful to commit a crime against the wind.

"Grandma's, grab me!" Wang Jiayin commanded.

In fact, if Wang Jiayin didn't know about this, Wang Guozhong would have already lived with that widow*. The widow* was scared at first, but when he calmed down and knew that he also had misconduct, he stopped struggling. And seeing that Wang Guozhong looked very powerful, there were really a few people under him, and the house was big, so he half-pushed and half-pushed Wang Guozhong, and you lived sweetly.

Within two days of the good days, Wang Guozhong was arrested by Wang Jiayin, and without saying a word, he was beaten up.

Wang Guozhong was not afraid of being beaten by the board, but Wang Guozhong was angry that Wang Jiayin ordered the widow* to be sent back to his mother-in-law's house, and strictly ordered no one to harass him. The widow was unwilling to leave, and Wang Guozhong couldn't bear to separate. As a result, the two cried and cried, causing the two second-hand men and women to fly separately.

So, Wang Guozhong went to Wang Jiayin to distinguish two sentences, and wanted to return to the widow*. As a result, it was another meal.

Wang Guozhong was ashamed and angry, extremely depressed in his heart, and sick at home.

Zhang Weili knew about this, but he deliberately pretended not to know, and came to Wang Guozhong's mansion, "Brother Wang, what's wrong?" You and I serve by the side of the king (Wang Jiayin) day and night, why do you take leave to hide from leisure? ”

Wang Guozhong told Zhang Weili about the matter with shame and shame.

"I mean, I've heard some rumors from you, and it's true! Alas, the king is really, dismantling a pair of mandarin ducks alive. Zhang Weili said in a sympathetic tone.

Wang Guozhong was full of resentment, "No, Brother Zhang, you are commenting, among the leaders of our rebel army, which wife is not robbed, why can't you come to me?" Don't talk about others, just say that your sister, the current Queen Zhang, wasn't he Wang Jiayin robbed it? ”

Zhang Weili was told that he felt pain in his heart, and he was speechless for a while.

"Oh, look, I'm not talking about you, look at my mouth." Wang Guozhong was a little embarrassed.

"Probably so." Zhang Weili changed his spirit and said to Wang Guozhong, "Now we don't let us do anything, what's the point?" Originally, rebellion was a matter of losing your head, and maybe it would be over one day, and you can't play with women if you want to. ”

"Who says it isn't!" Hearing Zhang Weili's complaint, Wang Guozhong was even more resentful, "I knew this, I might as well have followed the army of the imperial court before, anyway, it was all a game, but it was the right way, it was better than now!" ”

"Hey, why do you have such thoughts, don't talk about it to others. In fact, I also feel that rebellion is not the right way, and there is no future! Zhang Weili also felt the same way.

"What can be done? can only accept fate, after all, we are thieves in the eyes of the imperial court. Wang Guozhong sighed.

"It's a small thing to be a thief, but it doesn't matter if you can make meritorious contributions. I have a friend who is said to be working in Cao Wenzhao, and one day he sneaked into Yangcheng and saw me and said, why don't you make some contributions, not only for promotion, but also for the future. I didn't say anything. Zhang Liwei added, "I heard that at least you can be a guerrilla or deputy general, which is a serious official rank in the imperial court." ”

"Is there such a good thing?"

Zhang Liwei and Wang Guozhong spoke in smaller and smaller voices, and the content of the conversation became more and more confidential.

"I wonder, you are Wang Jiayin's brother-in-law, under the command of the palace, why do you hate him so much." Wang Guozhong was a little puzzled.

"The woman of my Zhang family was forcibly taken by Wang Jiayin, which is really a shame, not to mention my sister. In the first few days, when I entered the palace, I saw my sister washing her face with tears, and my heart was even more sad. No more than you and the widow* are in love. Zhang Liwei gritted his teeth and said.

Wang Guozhong nodded and understood.

So, the two of them looked for an opportunity to kill Wang Jiayin.

The peasant army had a large camp in the southern mountains of Yangcheng, where Wang Jiayin often lived in order to engage the invading Ming army.

Zhang Liwei planned with Wang Guozhong and sent someone to contact Cao Wenzhao, and the action was scheduled for June 2. Late that night, when Wang Jiayin was already asleep, Zhang Liwei and Wang Guozhong sneaked into Wang Jiayin's tent, and Zhang Liwei and Wang Guozhong picked up a knife and cut Wang Jiayin's head.

Poor Wang Jiayin's generation of heroes, suddenly, before he even had time to react, he died in a daze.

At this time, because Zhang Liwei was the commander in front of the palace, his own people had been placed around, and Zhang Liwei ordered someone to light a red light on the flagpole as a signal.

The Ming army had been prepared for a long time, and when they saw the red light hanging, they knew that the big thing had been accomplished.

Cao Wenzhao jumped on his horse and shouted at the Ming army, "Wang Jiayin is dead, come, follow me to kill the remaining bandits." ”

The peasant army was very well defended, and when they found that the Ming army was attacking, they prepared to fight. But I saw Wang Jiayin's brother-in-law Zhang Liwei and brother Wang Guozhong riding horses and shouting, "Wang Jiayin was killed, run!" ”

How do these two people not believe what they say? As a result, the peasant army was in chaos and had no intention of defending, so they fled for their lives.

In this battle, Cao Wenzhao won a great victory, and the peasant army of 200,000 people died and fled, and in the end only 30,000 people gathered under Wang Ziyong's men, and Wang Ziyong was regarded as the leader of the alliance.
