Chapter 7 Raiding the House

Northern Plains.

Snoring abounded, and the peasants, who had eaten some food, fell asleep on the floor and fell asleep with sweet smiles.

The church's carriage drove slowly back into the city, the church's holy mountain coat of arms reflecting silver light, and the light of the torches corresponding to the moonlight.

Luo Lan rode a white horse and walked slowly on the grassland, he couldn't sleep, and he didn't want to go back to the stinky city.

The late-night wind carried a hint of coolness, blowing Luo Lan's hair, and there was a trace of joy on his face, as well as a touch of ambitious confidence.

Not far away, a tall strong man ran over with a petite girl on his shoulder.

"Hey, bastard prince, what are you doing here secretly?"

Barrett was very rude, and he still didn't trust Luo Lan. The same was true of Ellie on his shoulder, who looked at Luo Lan with a scrutinizing gaze.

"It was Ms. Bina who made us believe in you once, I can be regarded as repaying her for saving her life, if you dare to repent, we will still attack the city!"

Elle threatens Luo Lan, but unfortunately she is so cute, and the threat is like a hamster grinding its teeth.

Luo Lan couldn't help laughing, "Okay." Miss Ellie, you said you were a student of Hailing Academy, why did you come back to Phuket? ”

"I was kicked out because I questioned the way the guru taught, who always praised the greatness of the lord and belittled the contribution of the peasant, and I was not convinced because I was the peasant."

Ellie puffed up that she was not a nobleman, but because of her talent, she was favored by the nobles, adopted her as an adopted daughter, and raised her all the time.

Now that the nobleman has died, she has also been kicked out of the academy and can only return to Phuket.

Luo Lan thought for a while, looked at the angry girl and said, "This peasant uprising, you are a military advisor, not bad, very smart." I plan to build a school in Phuket so that all children can read and write, how about you become the first teacher? ”

"Huh?"

Ellie was stunned, Barrett was also stunned, and the rough man said in a rough voice: "What books to read, that's a matter for the nobility, we can't work, where is there leisure to read, it's useless to be literate." ”

Indeed, it is a great rebellion for civilians to study, and if it is on land, I am afraid it will cause an uproar.

However, this is an island, an island that is not valued by any country, and Luo Lan is the king of the island.

Who would have thought that the island was quietly changing while the land nations were fighting to the death for a small piece of land?

"The school is going to be built, Ellie, you are my person, don't go back to the village to farm."

Luo Lan smiled and said, Ai Li was stunned, and then said angrily: "What do you mean?" How dare you tease me? ”

As soon as the words fell, her brother had already rushed over.

Luo Lan fled on horseback, "Barrett, you are also my man, I will give you ten gold coins, and you can choose two hundred strong young men among the people you brought to be my guard." ”

"Ten...... Ten gold coins? ”

Barrett opened his mouth wide and shouted loudly, despite his sister's objections, "Really? ”

"Really, we're going to raid our homes, it's time to eliminate the feudal remnants, this is the beginning of a great revolution!"

————

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

This is a truth that applies everywhere.

A few days ago, Luo Lan was still a single commander, but now he has a huge base of public opinion, and he can form his own guards at will and form the first armed force to defend the regime.

The city of Phuket was bustling with activity at dawn, and the people who had not yet fled looked at the farmers outside the city in amazement.

The peasants were all smiling, packed up their tools and weapons, and went home happy.

The prince's chancellor, Gandalf, rode his horse to the ground, and the white-bearded old man screamed with excitement.

"Friends, get the prince's decree out and tell all the peasants that we are free and need no longer fear the lord! We're going to bring them down! ”

"Good!"

The Northern Plains were full of cheers and enduring, this was a spark that would affect the peasants of the entire island in a matter of months, and its effect was no less than a mental emancipation, and the enemies of the feudal lords changed from Luo Lan to 200,000 peasants.

At this time, the city is also lively.

Barrett was being inspected by Luo Lan with two hundred sturdy young men.

The quality of the 200 people who got together overnight is actually not very good, but it is already very good among the peasants, and good training can be of great use.

Luo Lan nodded with satisfaction and called the general of the city guard next to him. This general's name is Karl, he must be in his forties, he has always been the leader of the city guard, nominally protecting the prince, but in fact he himself does not know what he is protecting.

"Carl, how many weapons are there in the city? Is it possible to equip an army of two hundred people? ”

Luo Lan asked, Karl smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, this is too unrealistic, if you want to expand the army, at least there must be enough food, now fifty city guards are difficult to fill their stomachs, half of them do not have long swords, and the establishment is also very chaotic, if you add two hundred more people......

Carl had never been on the battlefield, but he was a soldier after all, and he was far more familiar with the army than Luo Lan, so he naturally thought that Luo Lan was going crazy.

Luo Lan was not crazy, he decided to fight to support the war.

"Carl, you take them to raid the homes of the nobles in the city, there are many nobles living in the city, these bastards have been evading taxes, and they will be rich if they raid their homes. Moreover, the feudal lords outside the city had not yet left, so they also copied them and confiscated the weapons of their soldiers. ”

It is not so easy to move the feudal lords, so we must start with Phuket City, as the only city on the island, there are many feudal lords, these feudal lords are used to living in the city, and their own territory is handed over to the servants to take care of, they just sit and enjoy.

Luo Lan's method was very simple and rude, which scared Carl so much that his face turned white, and Barrett and his party were also greatly surprised.

Although the prince said that he would expel the feudal lord, it was too hesitant to go to the house so rudely.

The commoners of this world are destined to be lowly, who would dare to raid the homes of nobles.

Luo Lan couldn't help but smile when he saw them all frightened, he naturally understood everyone's mentality.

In fact, Luo Lan is not acting recklessly, the so-called revolution must have a revolutionary foundation. To reform the life of the feudal lords, there must be a basis for overthrowing the feudal lords.

And now, the foundation is there. Luo Lan has the first batch of armed forces and can do something, and the feudal lords are categorically unwilling to fight with the prince because it is not worth it.

Moreover, Luo Lan had the support of 200,000 peasants.

This is Luo Lan's greatest confidence.

"Don't worry, whoever dares to resist will be arrested."

Luo Lan waved his hand, his tone became cold, Carl looked hesitant, Barrett gritted his teeth: "Lao Tzu, damn, I'm afraid of him as a bird!" ”

"Okay, Barrett, you will be the leader of the Guards in the future, you can mobilize the city guards, Carl, you listen to Barrett's orders and take the soldiers to raid the house."

Luo Lan gave the order, Carl nodded hesitantly, and left with Barrett and his party, to go to equip it first, and then raid the house.

Soon, Phuket City began to jump chickens and dogs.

The commoners were stunned to find that the nobles who were usually arrogant and did nothing evil had their homes raided!

This was so strange that all the civilians in the city ran to see the excitement, watching the angry feudal lords scolding and scolding but there was nothing they could do.

The first shot of the revolution was fired.

Luo Lan was very satisfied, and he returned to his palace while thinking.

The palace was also bustling with activity, and the officials who had followed him had finally something to do, and they had to count the gold coins of the "treasury", which Gandalf had requested.

When Luo Lan returned to the study, he saw several sweaty officials sorting out the record books, they had been busy all day.

A petite girl was reading a book in front of the bookshelf and was fascinated by it, and this person was Barrett's sister Ellie.

Luo Lan went over and patted her on the shoulder, "Ellie, what are you looking at?" ”

Ai Li was startled, and when she looked back, she saw that it was Luo Lan who opened her mouth and complained: "What are you asking me to do here?" I'm bored to death"!

The little girl couldn't be idle, and she didn't want to stay in the palace at all. Luo Lan chuckled: "You will be the Minister of Education in the future, responsible for counting the child population and building schools. While everything is still being planned, you can look at the demographic record book. ”

"Huh? What Ministry of Education? I can't even understand it. ”

Ellie looked disgusted.

Luo Lan shrugged, "It's a big noble, in the future, you will be responsible for the education of the whole island first, and when we have money, we will build schools." ”

"So when will you get money?"

"This ...... Ahem, wait. ”

Luo Lan laughed dryly, very depressed.

Money, money, Phuket Island is too poor, it is simply a poor and white New China, no, it should be even worse than New China, because Phuket Island does not even have talents.

There are no talents in all aspects, all departments have not been formed, from education to transportation, from the people to the army, all are smeared.

"When will you get rich? If you are exempt from taxes for three years, then there will be no tax income in three years, do you have to wait until three years before you go to school? ”

When Luo Lan was depressed, Elle gave him another stick, which made him even more depressed.

The depressed Luo Lan looked at the territory divided into patches on the map, and his expression gradually turned cold.
