Chapter 30 The Situation

[Name: Liu Zhenhua.] 】

[Prestige: 452.] 】

[Current number of forces: 140 (refreshed in the early hours of the morning.] 】

[Current prestige meal: a bowl of white porridge, a plate of mustard/day/person (refreshed in the early hours of the morning), each serving can provide a little prestige (prestige required for upgrading: 1000). 】

[Maximum number of grants: 200 (3000 reputation required to level up.] 】

Liu Zhenhua glanced at it, it is impossible to upgrade the number of distributions in a short period of time, with the current number of people, it can be upgraded in five days.

Liu Zhenhua and others found an empty village, barren loess caves.

The highest standard buildings in Shaanxi are the courtyards of the 'bright, five, dark, four and six chamber kilns' type caves, and at the moment these caves are obviously the lowest peasant houses.

Liu Zhenhua glanced at it roughly, there is not even a decent compound here, let alone a large manor, it should be a place where there is no landlord Huo Huo.

The people here have obviously fled the famine, and the whole village is empty, and the doors are not closed.

Now that this world is out, there is a high probability that it will not come back.

"The first dove occupies... Let's help take a look at the house for the time being, and if someone comes back, pull him in," Liu Zhenhua temporarily led the team to use this place as a base.

In one of the cleanest caves, there were eight people standing.

These people are all talents discovered by Liu Zhenhua.

Ren Hongli, Yang Lichao, Zhao Shigong, these three force values are good, especially Ren Hongli, this person does not need to say much.

Ren is excellent, shouting, attracting new people, and so on can be competent.

Ren Fanyi, the highest diploma in a group of people, has entered the examination room, and there must be a scholar in a team.

Liu Zhenhua sighed with emotion, there are really many talents in the Ren family.

Zhao Shicheng, Zhao Shigong's elder brother, a native of Shanxi, is familiar with Shanxi and has a good cultural level.

A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a long face, Zhang Youliang, is a grass doctor who understands medical skills, Liu Zhenhua was fighting with the horse bandit, and a subordinate broke his arm and it was this person who picked it up.

The last one named Wang Yousheng was one of the victims he met that day, a native of Shaanxi Province, and he happened to be a villager near Yanchuan, so he was quite familiar with this area.

"Do you know where Chengcheng County is?"

Liu Zhenhua suddenly asked, making Wang Yousheng's body tremble.

After reacting, he hurriedly replied, "Back to the young master's words, I don't know about Chengcheng County, but Chengxian County does." ”

"Yes, it's Cheng County."

Liu Zhenhua nodded, the first peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty was in Chengcheng County, in 1627, that is, in July last year, a man named Wang Er led hundreds of hungry people to rush into Chengcheng County and killed Zhang Douyao, the county magistrate.

This man also gave himself a very powerful name, the king of Dashun, who exempted taxes, abolished the imperial examinations, made a series of decent policies, and also sounded the clarion call for peasant uprisings.

If the current Ming Dynasty is compared to a person, then the peasant uprising is like a cancer cell, once it breaks out, it will spread rapidly.

There will always be cancer cells that will be eliminated in the process, but more cancer cells will jump out, for example, a month or two later in Fugu, the farmer Wang Jiayin gathered a group of hungry people to rebel, and Wang Er went north to join forces with him after learning the news.

Wang Er, Liu Zhenhua remembered that after this guy became king, he was jointly exterminated by the Qing army (Dajin) and the Ming army within two years.

The first one stood up, but they were exterminated early.

Liu Zhenhua asked this Chengxian just to know where this person is now, although this person is in full swing now, but he can't get involved with him, this person can be beaten by the Ming and Qing Dynasty armies, and he will also face such a situation if he is touched.

"It's about four hundred miles south of Yanchuan," Wang Yousheng replied, bending slightly.

"So close."

Liu Zhenhua rubbed his chin, and after some thought, he made a decision.

Before the number of people is refreshed in the early hours of this morning, the number of personnel will be increased to two hundred, and after the number of prestige meals distributed in a single day will be upgraded for a few days, and two hundred to four hundred newcomers will be recruited, and the extra meal will be enough for about four hundred people to eat after being diluted.

The benefits of this are numerous.

First, the rank appears, although the newcomers eat less, but some eat, can survive, they are very satisfied, see that there are old people who eat better, they have the motivation to struggle, the old people see that they eat better than the newcomers have a sense of superiority and crisis, in their opinion, the porridge and mustard given by the king of the stove may be limited, they will be replaced if they do not perform well, and there is also motivation with a sense of crisis.

Second, the extra people will be able to directly eat the prestige of these people after the maximum number of prestige meals is upgraded.

"Knock knock."

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Liu Zhenhua called.

After the door opened, Ren Heitu walked in, "Young Master, someone is coming outside, there is blood on his body, and it looks like he is injured." ”

"Go out and have a look."

Liu Zhenhua's heart moved, "Could it be the villagers here?" Or the person who was chased and killed in front of the county seat. ”

He thought, but no matter who it is, he already has a base, and it is the time to take root and develop, so he naturally does not refuse to come, and he will find a way to pull these people into the gang.

......

Zhang Sanquan and some villagers walked in twos and threes, went out with more than 100 people, and came back with more than 20 people.

And those who rode on tall horses and wore armor shouted to kill the thieves, and rushed back and forth among them, and his wife died there, dead in front of him, and was struck by the ruler on the horse.

The blood all over his body was from his wife, and the hot blood poured on him, and he only felt that his throat was uncomfortably blocked, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his chest.

Zhang Sanquan glanced blankly, there was a horse tied to the open space in front of a cave, and people came out of the cave, these people were holding sticks, and the leader seemed to have a knife pinned to his waist.

His body trembled, instinctively retreated, the fire in his heart was almost extinguished, too many people died, and a hundred people went out and only came back more than twenty.

What can more than 20 of them do?

The people around discovered the situation in front of them, and some of them knelt directly on the ground, holding their heads, "The official spares his life, we really don't want to rebel, we can't live anymore." ”

"Don't arrest us, can't we fight back."

Only Zhang Sanquan was still standing, but he only stood for a while, and then his knees fell to the ground.

Liu Zhenhua and the others walked forward quickly, and when he saw these people, he knew that they were the uprising peasants who had been slaughtered in front of the county gate.

Seeing these people kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, Liu Zhenhua knew that they had misunderstood.

"Put away the weapon," Liu Zhenhua said, sensing the knife at his waist, and he hurriedly said goodbye.

Then throwing out a piece of mineral water, Ren Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward to tear the plastic film open.

"Wang Yousheng."

Liu Zhenhua shouted.

"Young master, you command," Wang Yousheng came up, hunched over and bowed his head.

"Tell the folks to get up."

The mood of the victims was unstable, so it would be better for the locals to speak.
