After having land, they were able to cultivate their own land without being oppressed by the landlords as tenants. A piece of land has been passed down from generation to generation, and as a common person, who doesn't want to own a piece of land that belongs to them?

The people's dependence on the land is like that of a fish relative to water.

Life as a bandit in the mountains was not so easy, and you still had to go hungry. And every day, I have to worry about the extermination of the government and the retaliation of the landlords......

Once you have land, you can live a stable life when you go down the mountain.

It's better to see how it is.

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the hall.

"What are you arguing about?" The Flying Tiger stood up and scolded angrily, "A piece of land is enough for you to covet? Look at your little bit of work! It has been five years since we went up the mountain, and the land below the mountain has been abandoned for five years. In the first year, if you don't get food, everyone will starve to death. And now that you are going down the mountain, what will you eat before the grain grows? ”

"Besides, you are not unaware of the decay of the imperial court. Who knows if the notice posted is a conspiracy of the government? I think they're trying to trick us down the mountain and catch them all! ”

"Big boss, as long as we turn over those barren lands a few more times and apply more farm fertilizer, we can have a good harvest in the coming year." A bandit said. They are all authentic farmers, they know the characteristics of the land well, and they are also very confident in their farming skills, "As for the problem of eating before the harvest, eating some wild vegetables every day can always survive until the harvest time." ”

The people's thirst for land has reached the extreme. Even if the land has been abandoned for five years, they want it. Even if they eat wild vegetables every day, they plan to stay up until the day of the harvest.

It can even be said to be crazy, some people would rather sell their sons and daughters than sell their land.

"In addition, the big boss's announcement may be a conspiracy of the government, and if he wants to catch us all, I don't think it's possible." Another bandit said, "If the government really wanted to exterminate us, it wouldn't have given us the money to go down the mountain, and we would have cheated a lot." ”

"The sixth is right." Another humanitarian, "The establishment of the new imperial courts in the past dynasties was mainly to appease the people, and they also wanted to let the people recuperate and consolidate their country." ”

Most of the bandits were peasants, and even some of the cottages could not even find a single literate person, and all of them were illiterate. But they also have channels to acquire knowledge, such as listening to storytellers and watching Yuan miscellaneous dramas.

"Big boss, we went up the mountain to be bandits, and we were originally forced by the old court and the landlord's old wealth." Lao Liudao, "If the government is really willing to give land, in my opinion, we can go down the mountain and accept the court's recruitment." ”

"Life as bandits is not much better than before, and we still have to go hungry in the mountains." Another humane, "And every day I have to worry about the government sending troops to exterminate it." Now that Emperor Zhu has won the world, we have no future as bandits in the mountains. Sooner or later, it will be exterminated by the government, and it is better to go down the mountain now and live a peaceful and stable life. ”

"After I have my own land, I can marry and have children in the future......"

Not to mention that it is not easy to be a bandit in the mountains, the key is that there is no future yet, and I don't know if I can see the sun tomorrow after today.

"Do you want to rebel?" Seeing that the crowd was coaxing, the Flying Tiger shouted angrily and pulled out his knife, his expression cold.

Seeing this, the crowd fell silent, and they dared not speak out against the big boss. This Flying Tiger can be the leader of the cottage, which is definitely not a good stubble. Not only is it ruthless to the local officials and soldiers, but it is also cruel to the poor people.

After entering the village and looting food, they immediately burned down other people's thatched houses, and even wiped out the entire families of the rebels. When you meet a woman, you have to vent whether you are old or young, which is simply inferior to a beast.

"Tell the big boss that the land given by the government is not the land that we used to be barren, but the fertile land of the landlord's family." Seeing that the noise was quiet, the spy said again, "The notice says that as soon as we lay down our arms and go down the mountain, they will give us all the fertile land of the landlord's family according to the number of people in each village. So if we can go down the mountain, we will get good land instead of wasteland. ”

"Once you come down the mountain, you can grow food and wait for the harvest. Moreover, the government will also distribute the grain stored by the landlord's family to everyone, so that everyone will not go hungry during the period of growing crops. In addition, the government will also distribute grain seeds, rice seeds, cattle and sheep one by one, and we don't have to borrow seeds from the landlords at all. In addition, once we agree to go down the mountain, there will be two taels of silver as a settlement fee!! ”

The conditions given by the government are so generous that it is equivalent to letting them move in.

When the crowd heard this, their eyes widened and their hearts were ecstatic.

If they go down to the mountains to serve the people, the government will not only give them the landlord's fertile land, but also pay them a settlement fee, seeds, cattle and sheep...... To put it simply, as long as they are willing to go down the mountain, they will be able to live a good life in no time.

In the future, there is hope immediately.

"The big boss, beg, take us down the mountain and accept the appeasement of the imperial court." At this time, a bandit stood up in an almost pleading tone, "The conditions given to us by the imperial court are really too generous. The imperial courts of all dynasties have never given such favorable conditions to bandits. ”

"In my opinion, there has never been an emperor in the past who has been so good to the people as Emperor Zhu." Another humane.

"I heard that Emperor Zhu was also born as a peasant, and he knows the suffering of the people, so he will never embarrass us."

"That's right! As soon as we go down the mountain, the court will divide the property and fields of the landlord's old wealth. In the past, those landlords and old fortunes bullied us miserably, and I supported the imperial court for this alone. ”

"And this time it is General Mu Ying who came to recruit us, he is the righteous son of Emperor Zhu, a well-known general, and our manpower is not enough in front of him. If we don't accept the appeasement, I'm afraid it won't take three days before he will be wiped out. ”

……

The bandit crowd petitioned.

"Big boss, I think this is feasible!" Seeing that everyone was thinking about this, the second master stood up and said.

"If you are in charge, it is better for us to ......" the three masters.

"No way!" However, the Flying Tiger looked very stubborn and said coldly, "You just saw the favorable conditions of the imperial court, have you ever thought about how many officials and soldiers we killed and how many civilians we killed before?" We have already committed the heinous crime, and the imperial court will easily spare us? ”

"If any of you dare to say a word about surrendering to the court, Lao Tzu will cut him first!" After speaking, he pulled out the ghost head knife and stabbed it on the table.
