Chapter 23: Peasant Revolt at the End of the Ming Dynasty

Wangjia Village, back hillside.

The second king of the white water looked at the villagers in front of him with a black face.

Last night, he organized a group of villagers to go to Gaojia Village to steal water, and each of them picked up two buckets of flour, which was really uplifting.

A group of people were in a good mood and walked with the wind.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned to the village, my good mood was struck by lightning.

Taking advantage of his absence in the village, the official raided Wangjia Village overnight, wounding several villagers, burning down a dilapidated thatched hut and robbing the villagers of their growing grain.

Several injured villagers, with cloth wrapped around their heads and blood oozing from the cloth, lay down in front of Wang Er and cried: "Brother Wang...... You've got to be the master for everyone. ”

"My family's grain has been robbed, even if the drought passes, God appreciates the rain, my family has no food to plant, and the whole family can only starve to death."

"My family's grain is gone, and I'm going to die."

Wang Er was furious, and his fists clenched: "Brothers, I brought flour back, and everyone used it to make gnocchi, eat it first, and then ...... Reverse fucking. ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked: "Want to rebel? That's a crime of killing the head. ”

Wang Er roared angrily: "Afraid of killing your head? You don't even have food to grow at home, so what else is there to be afraid of? Horizontal and vertical are all dead words, rather than starve to death, it is better to behead the dog head of the county order Zhang Yaocai and then die. ”

Everyone thought about it: this is also true.

Wang Er grabbed a handful of black soil on the ground, blackened his face, then raised his hand and shouted loudly: "Who dares to kill Zhang Yaocai?" ”

The villagers blackened their faces in unison and responded together: "I dare!" ”

"Okay, make a fire, make rice, eat gnocchi, kill the county seat when you are full, and chop off Zhang Yaocai's dog's head."

He looked around him, there were less than 100 villagers, and the number of rebellions seemed to be a little thin, so he summoned two young people and ordered: "You two, go to Chongjia Village and Zhengjia Village respectively, and contact my two brothers, Chongguangdao and Zheng Yanfu." Tell the two of them, just say that I, the second king of Baishui, are going to rebel now, and ask them if they dare to come with them. ”

The two young men hurriedly went to Chongjia Village and Zhengjia Village.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The fifth year of high school took three young people into Chengcheng County.

The second time they came to the county, they were much more courageous than the last time.

The first time I came, I cringed, but the second time I came, I was naturally calm.

This is about the difference between having seen the world and not seeing the world.

The mouths of the four of them were still very sweet, and when they saw people on the street, they inquired about "the residence of the former master thirty-two", and soon someone pointed them in the direction, and the four of them walked through the streets and alleys and came to the gate of the three houses.

Gao Chuwu raised his hand and was about to knock on the door.

Unexpectedly, the door actually opened from the inside first, and the high school slap was empty, a little embarrassed, and smiled innocently.

It was Thirty-Two who opened the door, and while he opened the door, he was also shouting to the people behind him: "Hurry up, hurry up...... Hey? ”

The voice stopped, he stared at Gao Chuwu for a second, and suddenly suddenly said, "Are you ...... The descendants of Gaojia Village, what is the name of Gao? ”

"The fifth year of high school!"

"Ahh Thirty-two's eyes rolled twice, and he immediately understood: "What does the Heavenly God command?" Under [Listen to me]. ”

Gao Chu Wu Lengzhu: I haven't said it yet, you know? Sure enough, learned people are just different from me who are naΓ―ve. If the village chief and grandfather want to make one thing clear to me, he has to hold my ear and yell for a long time.

Gao Chuwu picked his head in embarrassment: "Lord Tianshen is asking the artificial iron armor in our village, saying that there will be many thieves running out to cut people indiscriminately recently, and asking us to build iron armor to protect ourselves, but the only blacksmith in the village, Uncle Gao Yiyi, is not very good at technology, so Lord Tianshen wants to find you to think of a way to get some skilled blacksmiths over." ”

Thirty-two as soon as they heard the word iron armor, people were stunned, privately made iron armor, you are going to kill the head, no, the focus is wrong, the real focus of this sentence is the first half of the sentence, "Recently, many thieves will run out and cut people indiscriminately."

Thirty-two instantly understood!

Lord Celestial God means that the second king of the white water is going to be reversed.

He just guessed that the second king of white water was going to rebel by "grabbing the grain", but now that he has this sentence from Lord Tenjin, it can be judged almost by one percent that the second king of white water is going to rebel.

Good my mom! It's scary.

Thirty-two turned his head and yelled at his family: "What are you procrastinating? Don't pack up all the things you haven't packed yet, go, go immediately. This is called "discarding the armor". ”

His wife ran out of the house with a daughter in her arms, and the maid and the servant each carried a large package containing gold and silver, and when they ran out, they asked in a panic, "Where are we going?" ”

Thirty-two gritted his teeth and grabbed Gao Chuwu's hand: "Gao ...... The fifth brother of the junior high school, right? ”

Gao Chuwu was taken aback by his excited movements: "What's wrong?" ”

Thirty-two hurriedly said: "I bother you and the other three descendants, escort my wife and daughter to Gaojia Village, and ask Lord Tianshen to take care of it, as long as my wife and daughter are safe, I will have no worries, and I will help Lord Tianshen do things if I work hard." This is called "reciprocating the peach". ”

Senior High School Five: "Huh? Ay? Ay? ”

He had a silly look on his face, and he didn't understand what was going on at all.

Thirty-two hurriedly said: "Go, go, don't ink here!" The second king of the white water may be killed at any time, and he will not be able to leave if he wants to. It's called ...... Oh my mom, stop listening to my nonsense, you guys hurry up. ”

Gao Chuwu still didn't understand what was going on, but he had the advantage of being a simple person, that is, he listened to others very much, and when the village chief was talking, he listened to the village chief's orders. When the gods were talking, he listened to the orders of the gods, and now that the thirty-two things are over, he will listen to the thirty-two orders.

Grinning and laughing, "Okay! Then here we go. ”

Four young people, protecting thirty-two wives, daughters, maids, and slaves, a group of eight people, quickly left the county seat and returned to Gaojia Village.

As soon as the eight of them left the city, and within two miles of their walk, hundreds of people with blackened faces appeared on the hillside in the northwest of the county seat.

The first person is the second king of Baishui, and next to him are his two sworn brothers, Chong Guangdao and Zheng Yanfu.

The second king of Baishui roared loudly: "The unscrupulous county order, the urging is very cool, take me to grow food, under the jurisdiction of such a guy, we can't survive for a day, today everyone will follow me into the county, cut off the head of the county order, kill the shit in the city for the rich and unkind, open the granary, let the poor have a full meal, do you have the courage to follow me?" ”

Everyone: "Courage! ”

"Who dares to kill Zhang Yaocai?"

"I dare!"

"Who dares to kill Zhang Yaocai?"

"I dare!"

"Who dares to kill Zhang Yaocai?"

"We all dare!"

The second king of the white water laughed: "Then what are you waiting for? Come on! ”

Hundreds of villagers shouted in unison, brandishing hoes, wooden sticks, pot lids, shovels, firewood knives, dung forks and other weapons, and killed Chengcheng County.

The vigorous peasant uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty was officially announced.
