Since Emperor Xuanhe succeeded to the throne and fell into power, the imperial court, which was already in a state of crisis, gradually intensified, the imperial court and local decrees were chaotic, and the people lived in hardship.

Luo Guang was originally just a Taoist priest in the mountains of the Northland, a dilapidated Taoist temple, who could not bear the suffering of the people, and used "spells" and spells to heal people everywhere, and many sick people drank his talisman water, and were cured without medicine.

Luo Guang also established the Heavenly Master Sect at this point, and during this period, he sent the following six Taoist children to preach abroad, and in just a few years, more and more believers were pursued, up to tens of thousands, all over the northern states.

Later, there was a great drought in the north, and Luo Guang also took advantage of the situation to rise up, and believers all over the northland responded one after another, from the original tens of thousands of believers, to hundreds of thousands, or millions.

In order to take refuge in Luo Guang, many people did not hesitate to sell their property, traveled thousands of miles, and rushed to be the first.

In order to manage the Heavenly Master Army, he divided the forces into 36 districts, called Fang, with a generous 30,000 to 60,000 people and a small Fang ranging from 3,000 to 10,000, and each side pushed a leader, called Qu Shuai, all controlled by Luo Guang.

Among them, there are many big families, heroes, and officials in the Northland.

However, with the continuous development and growth of the Heavenly Master Army, it gradually deviated from its original intention, which caused many contradictions within the Heavenly Master Army.

Among them, the reason why the family family took refuge in Luo Guang was because he was the first to show the posture of a king, coupled with his strong strength, he could summon the thunder in the sky, and he thought that he could succeed, so he made an investment.

However, recent developments have made these families faintly uneasy.

Chuanhai, the northernmost inland sea of the Great Song Dynasty, is also the name of a state.

Among them, the Nangong family is the first "family" in Chuanhai, it has only been developed in the past 100 years, and it started by relying on the sea, although its influence is not comparable to the seven famous families, but the wealth is not inferior to the seven famous families.

Because he often went overseas to do business, there were many pirates and bandits at sea, so a sailor division was established.

At that time, the world was not chaotic, and the people were not allowed to raise private soldiers, and they were very strict, so the water division of the Nangong family was established in secret, and the recruited people and horses were also some orphans, black households without civil registration, at the beginning, there were not many people, only less than a thousand.

Later, the overseas business became bigger and bigger, and the wealth of the Nangong family accumulated more and more, so as to buy off officials at all levels in Chuanhai, and from a lowly businessman, he became a local gentry and wealthy family.

In the next few decades, under the continuous marriage and benefit transfer with the local and surrounding clans, the Nangong family became a lot bolder, and the private soldiers grew from less than 1,000 at that time to 5,000, and the pirates on the sea were reorganized, and they were in the limelight for a while.

Of course, the ambition of the Nangong family is not only that, its goal is to be an official and a big official.

Therefore, with Luo Guang's incident, the Nangong family saw the potential of the Heavenly Master Sect, so they quickly contacted Luo Guang and offered assistance.

Because the Nangong family understands that they are business in the end, they are looked down upon by the real family members, which can be seen from the marriages in recent decades, most of the Nangong women who married in the past are the concubines of those big families, and the women of the family who marry are either concubines or daughters of side branches.

The Nangong family has a long-term vision, and which of the seven famous families today has not undergone the change of dynasties.

In mid-October, Luo Cheng's envoy once again urged the Nangong family to ask for grain, grass and warships, asking for too much, making Nangong Jin, the current head of the Nangong family, feel unbearable.

In the past two months, in order to support the Heavenly Division's attack on Fengzhou, Nangong Jin sent all the sailors of the Nangong family to the front line, contributing people and money, which can be said to be a great effort, but the results were unsatisfactory and lost again and again.

This made Nangong Jin feel that the Fengzhou battlefield was like a bottomless pit, and the recent performance of the Heavenly Master Army also made him extremely disappointed, because the looting of the Heavenly Master Army in the north also damaged the interests of the Nangong family.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you hurt the benefits, provided that you want me to see the benefits in return, but when all else is gone, the mind will find a change.

In a garden, Nangong Jin had just sent away Luo Guang's envoy.

"Master, I heard that King Qin's army has hit Zhentianmen, once the Zhentianmen is broken, King Huai's army of King Qinwang can fight all the way to Beijing, and then the internal war of the imperial court is over, turn back and clear the anti-thieves, can the Tianshi army withstand it?" Nangong Jin's wife, Zhang, served Nangong Jin soup cakes and asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, ma'am." Nangong Jin smiled and said: "King Qin's army is composed of many forces and parties, although it seems to be united, but in fact, it looks like it is detached, and the dark tide is surging, take King Huai as an example, even if Xu Guozhong is killed, King Huai will return to power to the Son of Heaven?" I'm afraid it's not the second Xu Guozhong, this war can't end so quickly. ”

"Although this is the case, at present, the Heavenly Master Army is more complicated than this Qinwang army, and the soldiers below often harass the people, but all the women who have a little appearance dare not go out, for fear of being captured by the sergeants."

Zhang sighed, she is also the daughter of a big family, although she is a concubine, but she is not a village girl, she can see things far, she said:

"Master, there are some things that the concubine doesn't hide from you, recently there is a suspected person from Fengzhou, and then contact Brother Feng."

Zhang Feng, the younger brother of Zhang's fellow soldiers, is also a concubine, and currently serves as the commander of the Nangong Water Division in front.

Hearing this, Nangong Jin stood up suddenly, frowned, and said urgently: "How many people know about this matter?" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, Brother Feng has only written to tell the concubine so far, please ask the master to take an idea." Zhang's Road.

Nangong Jin breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, and said, "What do the people over there in Fengzhou say?" ”

What is suspicious, there is a high probability.

"That person claimed to be the envoy of the prefect of Fengzhou, and assured his brother that as long as the brother turned against him at a critical moment, after the matter was completed, he would definitely report to the imperial court, and the old man would be the prefect of Chuanhai, and the brother would be the defense envoy of Fengzhou. Zhang said.

The ultimate goal of the rebellion is not to be prosperous and prosperous, and to glorify the ancestors.

But there are too many uncertain factors in the rebellion, I don't know when I will die, accept Zhao'an and be able to stabilize for a while, and Xu Xu Tuzhi is not afraid of being in the court in the future.

The most important thing is that the current Celestial Master Army seems to have seen the future.

"Master, it's time for us to find a way back." Zhang's Road.

Nangong Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, his fingers lightly tapped on the table, and then said:

"It's not proper, at least not yet, in addition, the prefect of Fengzhou is also a fourth-grade official, where does the face protect others as fourth-grade officials, in my opinion, I'm afraid that Fengzhou will not be able to support it, and will start to make some tricks to discord."

Although the current Heavenly Master Army is giving people too many disappointments, it has not hurt the muscles and bones, and at this time, the "jumping back" will definitely be dealt with by the Heavenly Master Army as a model.

Chuan Hai can be in the rear of the Heavenly Master Army.

"Hurry up and write back to tell Zhang Feng, ask him to immediately dissociate himself from that person and report it to Luo Guang." Nangong Jin continued.

Zhang's family is mainly based on Nangong Jin, and the big thing must be to listen to Nangong Jin, when he was about to reply to the letter, he saw the newspaper on the table, and said, "Master, what is this?" ”

"This is the Di newspaper issued within the Tianshi Army, the only thing that attracts attention is that Yang Minggui's subordinate a young general named Chen Mo, only seventeen years old, is already a six-grade martial artist, this time on the battlefield of Yuzhou, it is a big break in the Yuzhou army, heavy damage to the Xuanbao cavalry, beheading the enemy 5,000, capturing the enemy 6,000, even Xu Jie, one of the three major generals under Liang Song, was beheaded by him." Nangong Jin said.

"Oh?" Zhang became interested and said, "Could it be the Tianjiao of some family?" ”

Nangong Jin shook his head and said: "This newspaper does not write Chen Mo's life, but I haven't heard that there is a family surnamed Chen in the north, but there is a Chen family in Jingshi, but I have never heard that there are people from the Chen family in Jingshi who come to the north." ”

……

Charlin.

At the end of the day, the people came to the cooking place, looked at the soup and water in the bowl, and suddenly sighed.

The porridge is getting clearer and clearer.

At the beginning, the porridge water was still thick, but the later it went, the fewer rice grains there were.

They do hard work again, not to mention that they can't maintain nutrition, and their stomachs will rumble in the middle of the night just after drinking.

"My lord, it's okay, let's have another bowl, this is really not enough to eat."

An old man with a sleaked face, dressed in tattered linen clothes, already hungry to the bones, and looking to be in his fifties, stretched out his arm thinner than firewood, and said tremblingly to the sergeant who was cooking.

"Roll out of the way for Lao Tzu, there is only one bowl per person, everyone has enough to eat, but you don't have enough to eat? Roll it, get it. ”

The sergeant picked up the wooden stick on the side, and if the old man was one step behind, the wooden stick would have been struck.

Xia Lin has more than 30,000 people, and Yang Minggui only provides them with 300 stone of food every day, normally speaking, 300 stone, which is only 10,000 people's food a day, but now it is for more than 30,000 people, you can imagine how much each person can get.

I don't have anything to eat, and the soldiers who are responsible for distributing porridge naturally have no oil and water, and the treatment is poor, so how can I have a good temper.

After drinking the porridge, many of the people lay down in a large resettlement camp, and in order to conserve their strength and cope with tomorrow's work, they had to reduce their movement.

Because many people were recruited from nearby cities and counties, thousands of people were crowded into each resettlement camp, and the smell of sweat was overwhelming, especially when it rained heavily a few days ago, and the roof was leaking, and the resettlement camp was damp.

But in this regard, Yang Minggui's people did not deal with it.

You can imagine how bad the environment inside is.

The people had to endure a long torment before they could sleep.

As the night deepened, the guards outside the resettlement camp were also lazy, and at this moment, the "joke" made a few days ago sounded in the resettlement camp again.

"His mother, eating less and less, if you continue like this, you will either be beaten to death, or you will be starved to death and exhausted, folks, we can't go on like this, we have to resist, we will die horizontally and vertically, in my opinion, fight with them"
