That night, in the thatched hall of Wuyun Mountain, everyone sat down around the thatched hall.

What is being held now is an enlarged internal meeting of Wuyun Mountain, and it is Mo Qian who has asked for the meeting.

The theme of the meeting was simple: to formulate a policy of rebellion.

At the meeting, Mo Qian said to everyone present: "Everyone, the Ming Dynasty has been crumbling, after my night observation of the sky, within ten years, the Ming Dynasty will inevitably die!" ”

Yi Jiu, who was sitting at the doorway, couldn't help but look up at the dark night sky when he heard this.

In addition to the layers of dark clouds in the sky, there is not a trace of starlight, how did Mo Gongzi observe the sky at night?

Above the main seat, there are now three seats.

Zhang San was still in the main position, and Lu Zhao and Mo Qian sat on both sides.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since we are forced by the court and the government to go up the mountain and fall grass, but being a thief every day is not a day after all, in my opinion, since we have rebelled, it is better to make a big scene."

"What's the big law?" Zhang San beside him couldn't help but ask.

Mo Qian paused for a moment and said, "Let's play the banner and officially create the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Zhang San couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

He said: "Xiucaigong, what kind of rebellion is this, you said, I have been on the mountain for almost two years, and I have made up these twenty brothers when I come together, you say, how are we going to make it bigger?" ”

Mo Qian gave Zhang San a roll of his eyes, and his heart was difficult to explain with this kind of mud legs.

Zhang San, this guy is a lot smarter, but he lacks strategic vision, plus this guy is short-tempered, if he is allowed to do it alone, Mo Qian can be sure that this kid will have to be swept away by the government after only three years.

As for Lu Zhao, he is better than Zhang San, he doesn't have Zhang San's fiery temper, his personality is more calm and calm, if he is cultivated, he can still be competent.

In fact, Mo Qian didn't want to rebel against Zhang San at all, but now his back road has been blocked.

On the boat, his teacher, the boatman, and the teacher's two family members, all four of them saw that they had become thieves.

If you sneak back now, you're just throwing yourself into a trap.

Immediately was directly arrested by the county lord and put in prison to give a knife, not to mention, the county lord turned around and told his superiors to kill an anti-thief leader, a proper great achievement!

Mo Qian would not be stupid to give credit to the county magistrate, it was better to keep his little life.

Now that there has been a rebellion, let's just make a big fuss, and if the trouble is too small, it will inevitably come up with a knife in the neck.

Either it was destroyed by the government or it was destroyed by bandits.

Of course, Mo Qian, who knows the direction of history, will not wait stupidly to cut off people's heads, anyway, it is now a troubled time, since others can create the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty, then they can also make it themselves.

It's all the same rebellion, no difference.

After clarifying his thoughts, Mo Qian had a plan in his heart.

He said to everyone: "Everyone, we can't rob this small section of the Yuan River, we have to take the initiative!" ”

"What's the initiative?" Everyone was immediately interested.

"As the saying goes, wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs walk thousands of miles to eat, we can only eat half full when we guard this section of the river, since we have rebelled, let's just go and eat big households!"

"Big eater?"

"Yes, eat big households, those unscrupulous landlords have caused us to have no land, no land, and even more harm to our family, who will we eat if we don't eat them?"

Mo Qian's words immediately resonated with everyone, especially the second leader Lu Zhao.

He had a blood feud with the landlord Yan Zhenchuan, and at this time, when Mo Qian said this, his blood was suddenly stimulated.

"Third child, what do you say, we all listen to you!"

"Yes, we all listen to you!"

"Okay, since the big guy gives me face, I'm not welcome, my plan is, let's take the Yanzhen River in Wentang Town first!"

......

Wentang Town is located in the southwest of Yuanzhou Mansion 36 miles, is located at the foot of Mingyue Mountain, a famous local scenic spot, Wentang Town is famous in Yichun, is a town that dignitaries and nobles love to travel to, this is because there is an ancient well hot spring in the town that has not dried for thousands of years.

There is also a beautiful legend about the town of Ontang.

Legend has it that after Hou Yi shot the sun and made miraculous achievements, the Queen Mother of the West rewarded him with an elixir of immortality. Hou Yi and Chang'e couldn't bear to be separated in love, so they handed over the elixir to Chang'e for safekeeping.

One day, Pengmeng came to steal the elixir, Chang'e ran all the way to the foot of Mingyue Mountain, swallowed the elixir in desperation, and ran to the moon from Mingyue Mountain. In the Guanghan Palace, Chang'e thought about Hou Yi and her relatives in the mortal world day and night, and was sad.

"Tears flew into a downpour, turned into a hot spring to stay in the world." The hot springs in Wentang Town are Chang'e's tears.

The daily output of the hot springs reaches more than 10,000 tons, and the average annual water temperature is 68-72 degrees.

Sitting on the hot springs, Onyu Town has opened all kinds of shops for foot soaking.

At this time, it is the end of August and the beginning of September, and the weather has already entered autumn.

In addition, this year's cold air seems to have come earlier, and Yuanzhou, which was still a little hot in the past, is much colder this year.

There are quite a lot of tourists in the town, almost every store has customers, and most of the shops that open their feet are very lively, and the shop owners are still recruiting customers one by one.

Just a moment after the afternoon Shen hour, three more guests came to the town.

Looking at the three people dressed up, it seems that a son who is studying leads two subordinates on a trip.

He Laosan, who was located at the entrance of the town, was the first to greet him.

"Childe, do you want to soak your feet and take a bath? We have freshly made hot spring water here, give you a soak, ensure your physical and mental pleasure, if you take a bath, there are beautiful women to rub your back! ”

When the young man heard the words of Yan Laosan, his eyes suddenly popped out.

"What? Is taking a bath a woman's back? ”

"Of course, the big beauty who is not bullied by Tong Su is definitely not the kind of village woman who is forty or fifty years old!" He Lao Sanmei said with a smile.

When the young man heard this, he seemed to be a little itchy.

He stopped, walked into the shop of Yan Laosan, and said to him: "Boss, let's get three buckets of hot spring water first, let us soak our feet to relieve fatigue!" ”

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!"

He Laosan was very neat and brought three buckets of hot spring water that had already been prepared, and called two guys to press his feet.

The three buckets of water had just been fed up, and the lid on the barrel could be lifted and the hot air coming out of the bucket could still be seen.

Mo Qian put his feet in the water, and suddenly a warm feeling passed from the soles of his feet to his head.

"Cool!" Mo Qian couldn't help but praise!

The other two brothers were also there enjoying the hot springs.

The two were none other than Yi Jiu and Yi Chenggui, who were in prison with Mo Qian before.

Both of them have shown their faces in front of the government, and the hat of the anti-thief has been buttoned to death, and now they can only follow honestly as a thief.

This time, the purpose of the two of them following Mo Qian to Wentang Town was very simple, that is, to find out.

According to Lu Zhao, the population structure of Wentang Town is very complex, and it is different from other folk villages in Yuanzhou Prefecture.

In this place in western Jiangxi, many villages are a village with a surname, and all the people in a village worship an old ancestor.

This phenomenon is particularly prominent in Yuanzhou, where every village in Yichun County is under the jurisdiction of Yuanzhou.

The surname Yi is the largest surname in Yichun County, accounting for more than 10% of the population under the jurisdiction of the entire county.

The second largest surname is the surname Liu, second only to the surname Yi in population, and the third largest surname is the surname Peng.

The surnames Li, Zhang, and Huang are also populous surnames in Yichun County.

These six surnames alone basically account for as much as half of the population under the jurisdiction of Yichun County.

But in the place of Wentang, it is out of this law, and there are more than 20 surnames in Wentang Town.

The exact reason for this is unknown, but the fact that so many surnames live in one town can create all sorts of problems.

First of all, the biggest problem is that the rule of the feudal dynasties in previous dynasties was only at the county level, and there were no officials appointed to manage the court at the township level.

Often, many people live at the township, township, and village levels, and so many people live at the grassroots level, which leads to all kinds of contradictions.

And when contradictions arise, they often need people to solve them.

At this time, the existence of the family ancestral hall is very necessary.

Each village and each town has a big surname, and the patriarch of this big surname is basically equivalent to the head of each township, and once the villagers have a conflict, the final decision is in the hands of the chief.

But Wentang Town is an exception, there are too many surnames in this town, resulting in everyone being yours and mine, everyone has nothing to do with each other, even if there is a conflict, you can only go to the county office thirty miles away to fight a lawsuit.

In a word, it can be summed up: the people in Wentang Town are not aligned.

And the reason why Mo Qian preferred the landlord of Wentang Town, Yan Zhenchuan, was that he was not in harmony.

If you really want to pick a big village without miscellaneous surnames to rebel, I'm afraid this thing may not be possible.

The whole village of a large village without miscellaneous surnames basically listens to the patriarch, and the patriarch is often a landlord like the landlord.

You go to rebel and raid the house of the rich man, and the people shout every minute that the people will come to fight with you?

Mo Qian is not stupid, when his strength is not enough, the first factor is to learn to develop obscenely and find weak places to attack.

And Yan Zhenchuan is the best target.

According to Lu Zhao, Yan Zhenchuan can be said to have done all kinds of evil in Wentang Town, not to mention that he occupied the land and property of the villagers, but often did things that hurt the heavens and the reason and hurt people's lives.

Yan Zhenchuan was already full of evil in Wentang Town, if it weren't for him Yan Zhenchuan who became the county magistrate, I am afraid that he would have been raided by the mob.

Mo Qian called the owner of the store and asked, "Boss, I heard that this ancient hot spring well in Wentang Town has been flowing all year round, and you must be very profitable to do business with this hot spring well, right?" ”

"Make money? I'm thankful I don't lose money! The shopkeeper grumbled.

"Where do you start?" Mo Qian suddenly became interested.
