Chapter 481: More and More Chaos

An oil lamp with a soybean-sized flame, a few clay bowls with cold water, and half a handful of peanut shells scattered on the kang table. Four or five thin men sat around the kang and whispered, and some people rummaged through the peanut shells on the kang table from time to time, as if they were still trying to find a fish that had slipped through the net.

"Dazhu, pour all the things in the blanket onto the kang table!" A man with a wrinkled face who could not tell his age said to another young man leaning against the door.

"Master Li, that's the rations for the two of us these days......" the young man said reluctantly.

"Look at your little bit of interest! Lord Yan nodded, then we are now the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and we can't afford to eat without that little food, don't embarrass me! Sharp, give me a shake! Listening to the tone of the pleated man, it was really irrefutable.

Several men saw the young man take off the blanket on his shoulders, muttered and moved to the edge of the kang, and hurriedly swept the peanut shells on the kang table with his sleeves and wiped the table by the way.

Crash! The young man poured the contents of the blanket onto the kang table, a few pieces of donkey meat wrapped in dried lotus leaves, and a large handful of peeled walnut kernels, peanuts, and dried red dates, which were scattered on the hula floor and occupied half of the table.

The men didn't care about what they were eating, grabbed the food and hurriedly stuffed it into their mouths. After a while, someone choked, and the pleated man hurriedly handed him a bowl of cold water.

"Master Li, let you see the joke! To tell you the truth, we must have not eaten enough for half a year. Earlier, I could go outside to find some wild vegetables and wild fruits to top my stomach, but now it's almost winter, and even the grass outside is yellow, how can I still find something to eat, and I'm going to eat Guanyin soil at this glance. An older man said to the pleated man.

"Ouch, I don't dare to call myself a master in front of you, you are too exalted to me! Grandpa, now in addition to Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion, how can there be enough people in this Shandong territory? The man with this wrinkled face is Li Lezi, who was sent out by Yan Feng to "reconnoitre" the enemy a few days ago.

"Anyway, there are no rations until the beginning of spring, so we might as well fight back with Li Ye and go to the Great Song Dynasty together, uncle, do you think it's so reasonable?" A man who was burying his head in eating heard Li Lezi mention Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion, and immediately said to the person who was made his grandson by Li Lezi.

"Shut up! A mouthful of food can't stop your mouth from squirting feces, is there a place for you to interject? Sun Laifu scolded, it is a big crime to punish the nine clans.

"Grandpa, I know that pulling the flag and rebelling is a big crime for the nine clans, but think about it, how many people can survive in the nine clans of your seven aunts and eight aunts?" Li Lezi continued to brainwash.

"There's a ball left! Even if it comes to the beginning of spring next year, it is a dead word! Even the seeds have been scraped away for military rations, and there is no way to survive at all! The man who had just been scolded by Sun Laifu also added fuel to the fire.

In the history of time and space, after the defeat of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the First Opium War, a large number of Western industrial products poured into China, and the self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy was greatly impacted, and the Shandong region, which has a long coastline, suffered a lot. This situation worsened after the Sino-Japanese War, when Hans took advantage of "intervention to return Liao" to Shandong's sphere of influence. So much so that the overwhelmed peasants joined the Boxer Rebellion with the slogan of "helping the Qing Dynasty and destroying the foreigners".

In this time and space where the time-traveling crowd intervened, Lushun did not fall into the hands of polar bears, and Shandong was not included in Hans's sphere of influence, but the flat-headed people of Shandong did not live more comfortably than in the history of the original time and space, but at this time they experienced more suffering than the original time and space.

The footpot chicken, who was beaten badly by the crossing crowd, was eager to rebuild the fleet, but the war reparations had to be divided by the crossing crowd. Since the total amount of compensation is inevitably shrinking, the Foot Pot Chicken can only ensure their cash flow by increasing the amount of each instalment of compensation. In other words, although the total amount of compensation is the same as in the history of the original space-time, the actual compensation cycle has been shortened, and the compensation for each period is much more than in the history of the original space-time.

These extra money are still obtained by increasing various donations and taxes for the people of Pingtou, so the rich Shandong region has been exploited by the Manchurians more cruelly than in the history of the original time and space!

Of course, this was not the last straw that broke the camel's back. Because an "Osprey" accidentally landed in the Yantai area, which led to the crossing of the crowd sending a large number of ground troops into Shandong, and at the same time, in order to prevent John Bull from interfering in Weihai, the Provisional Executive Committee dismantled and brought back the malfunctioning "Osprey" transport plane, and the shrimp soldiers and crabs intended to fight with Li Bingheng will continue to fight a bad battle and not withdraw to the Liaodong Peninsula.

Li Bingheng's tactic of "revolving but not dispersing" seems to have blocked the pace of the "pseudo-Song Dynasty" to occupy Shandong, but the price paid is also huge. "Collapse" means that a large amount of supplies and baggage will be lost, and to maintain "non-dispersal", you must not only collect and reorganize the scattered personnel, but also replenish them.

Li Bingheng used the tactics of the sea of people to accompany the people to train the troops, and the materials that needed to be consumed were really sea. Although Guangxu and the old witch were very concerned about the war between Shandong and the "pseudo-Song Dynasty" and gave him a lot of support, but judging from the current situation that the Bohai Sea has become a bathtub through the public, Li Bingheng can only obtain material replenishment from the land transportation with huge losses.

In order to trap the "pseudo-Song Dynasty" in Yantai and drive it out, Li Bingheng has already adopted such an extreme method as scraping the ground to raise grain and grass materials in Shandong, and only then will there be a tragic situation in which the seeds used for spring sowing in the man's mouth just now have been scraped away.

The traversal used so much manpower and material resources to do things in Shandong, of course, they also had the mentality that what they could get was nothing, and while fighting a bad battle with Li Bingheng, they did not forget to take in refugees and transport them back to the Liaodong Peninsula. In fact, the traversal is not a loss, they can only rely on the materials discarded by Li Bingheng's waste dim sum men to complete the containment work, and they can easily send the population back to the Liaodong Peninsula with complete control of the sea, and there is no pressure on the materials at all.

This also led to the fact that Li Lezi could preach to others without shame, and the current Shandong was also in some areas of Dengzhou and Laizhou controlled by the people, and there were still well-fed ordinary people.

"Alas, if we can't survive, we can only fight, but how can we drag our family to Dengzhou Laizhou?" I don't know how long it has been since I got meat, Sun Laifu, after taking a bite of the donkey meat in the sauce, he was already inclined to defect to the Great Song Dynasty.

"What are you doing in Dengzhou Laizhou? I'm not afraid to tell you that it won't be long before the head of Jinan Mansion will have to change the flag of the Great Song Dynasty. Li Lezi whispered to Sun Laifu in his ear.

"So fast? This Laizhou Dengzhou is hundreds of miles away from Jinan Mansion, right? Didn't the government still send troops over there, how could it ......." Sun Laifu was a little skeptical of Li Lezi's statement.

"Grandpa, after I didn't succeed, I hid in the foreigner's tea garden and waited for death for a few days, right? You don't want to think about it, just a person like me, I dare to run out and hang around if I have nothing to do, I'm full? Li Lezi said.

"That's right, you're ....... You are a noble person's life, and I think this matter is mostly certain. Say, let's do it, shall we? Sun Laifu finally made up his mind to vote for the Great Song Dynasty.

"This Liangshan hero also pays attention to getting a vote, and we can't vote for the Great Song Dynasty empty-handed. I thought, why don't we smash the county office. opened the granary and cut off the dog's head in Nazhi County, ate and drank enough to take the head to the Great Song Dynasty! "Yan Feng's appearance is like adding an extra courage to Li Lezi.

"Master Li, can we still smash the county government with these two foreign guns in our hands?" Before Sun Laifu could speak, the pillar who came with Li Lezi panicked first.

"Hmph, there are still a few people with waist knives in the county ya, and people are either sent to Dengzhou Laizhou to die, or they go down to urge food and donations, and I'm afraid of him!" The more life-saving people are, the more careful they are.

Shandong's folk customs have always been fierce, and the cold winter is about to lead to a shortage of food and clothing for the people in many places, so Li Lezi really gathered a group of people to attack the county government in a few days. It remains to be said whether these people will all vote for the Great Song Dynasty, but the idea of smashing the county government to open a granary to tide over the difficulties is really unanimous!
