Even these people, who had formed a crowd to protect themselves, were mostly ragged and hungry, and some of the poor families were hungry for a long time, and they were all skinny, and from a distance, it seemed as if a group of skeletons were kneeling on the ground.

Most of the trees on the roadside and in the countryside have been stripped of their bark and leaves, and they are all eaten by hungry villagers. Many paddy fields are also overgrown with weeds, and at a glance you can see that they have been barren for many days, and most of the landowners are in doom.

Occasionally, you can see only half of the corpses lying down between the ditches, and see if they are dead in the chaos of the villagers or homeless people, and even wolves and dogs are rampant, dragging the corpses that have not yet turned into white bones to eat, and they are not afraid to see the large group of chariots passing by on the road, and they are not afraid, and they bark at the dust from afar.

Gao Shisheng led his troops to sack Shinano Yasuun County last year, and he did more evil things than this terrible person.

Such a scene on the side of the road was not worth mentioning to the samurai and Lang party of the Hirayama Party, and when they saw this scene again after a few months, they did not feel touched again, but they still subconsciously clenched their swords and guns, and strengthened their vigilance without being reminded.

Hugh said that the sister road Qianhuayuan who was sitting in the car, that is, the young warriors in the accompanying tripartite crowd saw this scene, and all of them were terrified.

Even if the poor family occasionally dies of cold and starvation, there are also people from the prison who pay to find black shovels or filthy people to come forward and send the deceased out of the righteous grave of the temple outside the city for burial, and there will never be a scene of corpses on the spot and let wild beasts eat them.

Most of the samurai of the three parties lived in the vicinity of the city, and no matter how poor they were, they were all serious samurai.

Although most of the family is poor, this is also compared to the rich and wealthy merchants in the city, even if they really lack food, they can ask the clan for help, and be assigned to the manor in the township to be a steward who watches over the vain work, and Yuanjiang Chengping has never seen such a miserable thing for many years.

Even the accompanying disciples were a little frightened, but they were quickly appeased by the accompanying samurai and ashigaru.

Seeing this scene today, the samurai of the three parties were shocked in their hearts, and then they looked at the armor and guns, and did not squint, obviously the Hirayama Party was accustomed to such a situation, and some people were so discouraged that they felt ashamed, and some people would rise to the heart of victory.

These samurai from the famous family of the Genji clan, it is difficult for them to be as light as an ordinary one, and when they think of the words handed down by the old country division of the family, they can't help but press the knife on the side, just waiting for the order of the family governor, they will kill in the township, so that the wealthy family of the Mikawa country will know the martial name of the Yuanjiang Gao clan.

There are miserable scenes, and naturally there are manors that have resumed production, but these are mostly owned by the wealthy families and the Pure Land Shinshu Temple.

The people were so miserable, and the people of the country did not want to help, which really made Gao Shisheng extremely angry, and when he killed and plundered Shinano, even though he regarded the Shinano wealthy family as domestic slaves, he still recognized their willingness to help the people in the territory.

Minkou is the property that can really be passed on to the descendants in this troubled era of the Warring States, and there is no vain attachment or subordination, who will support the samurai who live in the manor? It's just stupid.

Of course, he could not care about the lives of the people when he was in Shinano, but how could he not care if the people of the eight prefectures could become his laborers in the future.

Zhongquan Pavilion is in sight, Gao Shisheng temporarily put down the strategy of governing the county in his heart, cheered up, if he wants to fight against the eight wealthy families in the county, he must first control the situation in the townships in the county, and if he wants to control the situation in the eight counties, he must first restore the villages of Junfu in the townships in the county.

It was noon, the spring sun was shining, and it was warm and pleasant.

At the head of the city of Zhongquan Pavilion, two large flags with black stripes on a white background stand obliquely in the wind, and more than 20 soldiers of Yuanjiang County are patrolling in armor on the city wall. The castle gate was ajar, and a samurai with several ashigaru guards the bridge, and several townspeople came and went.

When I was at the county border, no one greeted me, and now there is still no one to greet me outside the official hall.

Gao Shisheng rode hundreds of steps in this line, not to mention that the inspection did not violate the rules and made the travel have their own honor guards and flags, but the hundreds of people who accompanied the trip brought up the Nuo big momentum, and traveled several towns away, and it was impossible for the wealthy families along the way not to know that Gao Shisheng had arrived, but even after arriving outside the city, there was still no one to greet him, and he was really too deceitful.

Not to mention Aoki Daizen, who is close to his henchmen, even Shimazaki Keishin, who opened the way in front, can't help but be angry.

Although Shimazaki Keishinobu had a prejudice against Gao Shisheng, thinking that he had let people trick his family into killing his brother-in-law, after seeing Sunfu Castle, a famous town in the East China Sea, and seeing the truth about Gao Shisheng's fellow governor Imagawa clan, he still decided that he could rely on his personal bravery in the Imagawa family and then soar to prominence.

Ono Tadaaki's persuasion can be said to be right in his heart, and when he left Junfu City, he was paid by Gao Shisheng to go through the door, and he exemplified the official career of 'seeing the governor' of the non-embassy office.

Although the 'Governor of the Governor' was only a servant to catch sinners, it was also on the list of officials in the Jun Mansion, so he was extremely dissatisfied with the contempt of the eight wealthy families in the county.

Guoji Yuangang and Isshiki Zhenxiu came to the outside of Gao Shisheng's car and said, "Judge, please enter the museum first, and I will wait for someone to call the wealthy families in the county to pay respects." ”

Shimazaki Keishobu, Nagaoka Uemon, and Yamada Toyogoro approached together, and asked with disgust, "Judge, the three of us are willing to lead troops to protect the national division and the two adults of Isshiki to go to the countryside together!" ”

Hayato Hasegawa and Hokusho Shengzhong also came back from the front and said, "Judge, please go into the city to rest first, and I'll go to the countryside to spread the word." Beizhuang Shengzhong was supposed to go to the Hosojiang Pavilion with the confession document to find the Changtian Sheng clan and return to Pingshan Township, but he insisted on escorting Gao Shisheng to his post before returning to Yuanjiang, so he remained in the team.

Gao Shisheng lifted the curtain with a folding fan and said, "Didn't I say that you should act frugally? Why are you still so impatient? After that, he gently patted the back of his wife's sister Xiaolu Qianhuayuan's hand, signaling his peace of mind, and then said with a smile, "Enter the city!" ”

Ashigaru guarding the door outside the Nakkaizumi Pavilion, Ashigaru had already seen the arrival of Gao Shisheng and others, hundreds of foot riders were very loud, and the dust and smoke were billowing out, and they were still making trouble at first, but the samurai who were responsible for guarding this city were the troops under the command of Asahina Shin, and they had served under Gao Shisheng.

Although he didn't know the honor guard in front of him, what kind of majesty it was, but he knew Gao Shisheng's 'Suwa Divine Banner', and more importantly, he recognized Shimazaki Keishinobu, the 'Ueno Imabonsen', who opened the way in front, just because the 'Shoyoshi' Haori he was wearing was too famous and conspicuous.

He hurriedly asked people to go to the Zhongquan Temple in the city to ask the abbot to go out of the city with him to greet him, but no one came, seeing Gao Shisheng's frame parked outside the city for a while, he suddenly couldn't sit still anymore, got up and paced back and forth on the city gate watchtower, looking outside the city for a while, and looking inside the city for a while.

In the end, he didn't care about the abbot of Zhongquan Temple in the city, so he hurriedly trotted and brought the three samurai who stayed behind with him to take care of Zhongquan Pavilion, and came to Gao Shisheng's frame and asked for respect.
