On the way from Yingtian Mansion to Yangzhou Mansion, Wei Ming's face never looked good. If you can't walk a few steps, you will see the dead body, and the only common people look at the passing army with expressionless expressions like walking corpses, indifferent. Wherever he went, Wei Ming couldn't feel any anger at all.
"Master Hou, the people must have rebelled for food. Now that the Yangzhou government has gathered tens of thousands of troubled people, they must have been looted here, and experienced natural disasters and military disasters. Such a scene is nothing strange. "The expression of Li Zicheng next to him is also not pretty. He was originally born in poverty, and he felt the same for the suffering of the people. As long as they can survive, they will definitely stick their teeth. But this time the people rebelled because of the officials and wealthy businessmen in the Yangzhou government. The people were persecuted by them. Who is responsible for causing such great harm? Who can afford it? I remember the last time I came here, there were bazaars everywhere, the people lived and worked in peace, and everyone could see a smile on their faces. But now, a few years ago, it has become like this. How much do those careerists hurt for their ambitions!
"Pass the order, speed up the pace, and feel the Yangzhou government as soon as possible. This matter is by no means simple, and it will change after a while. At that time, I don't know what will happen." Wei Ming said with a gloomy face. A whip hit the horse's ass.
"Drive!" Wei Ming rushed out first, and Li Zicheng immediately fought forward, and the army's marching speed increased again.
This time, Wei Ming brought five thousand soldiers and horses from the Nanjing Guardsmen, all of which consisted of cavalry. They advanced at full speed, quite quickly, and arrived outside Yangzhou in a day and a half. Luanmin looked at Wei Ming's five thousand cavalry nervously, with all kinds of weapons in his hand, using everything. Some even confronted Wei Ming tremblingly with a bamboo pole. Wei Ming believed that with the five thousand cavalry under his hand, only one charge could disperse, encircle, and annihilate the tens of thousands of people on the opposite side. But Wei Ming still couldn't give this order. What's wrong with them? They just want to live.
"Send the order, set up camp on the spot, send someone to talk to the peasant army, and say that Benhou is going to talk to their coach." Wei Ming gave the order, and the army got busy. Although facing a peasant army with no combat effectiveness, neither Wei Ming nor Li Zi CD dare to take it lightly. No one can believe it now. Only the gun in his hand can be trusted.
"No!" Li Zicheng agreed, and proceeded to make arrangements. A hundred of his subordinates were sent over to talk to the peasant army. And Wei Ming's banner was also erected. When the people saw Wei Ming's banner, their horrified eyes became flat and hot again.
"Did you see it? Did you see it? It's Weihou, it's Weihou here! We are saved!" An old man said in tears. They couldn't survive in the 48th year of Wanli. If Wei Ming hadn't brought a large amount of grain to suppress grain prices, they would have starved to death at that time. Therefore, it is no surprise that the people of Yangzhou Prefecture are grateful to Wei Ming. Seeing Wei Ming is like seeing a life-saving straw. They believed that since Wei Ming was able to save them once, he would naturally be able to save them twice.
"It's Weihou, it's Weihou! It's Weihou's banner!" The people who started the riots were basically the people of the Yangzhou government, and they were no strangers to Wei Ming. Even if he didn't know, his eyes became fierce after word of mouth. They all understand that rebellion is not a good way out, and it will be annihilated sooner or later. But you can still have a bite when you rebel. If you don't rebel, you might not even be able to live today. When Wei Ming came, he would be saved, and there was no need to continue the rebellion.
"What should I do? Wei Ming's influence is so great?" In the handsome account of the peasant army, seeing the restless people below, a white-faced scholar holding a folding fan, frowned and said.
"Wei Ming rescued the people from Yangzhou Prefecture back then. It’s no surprise that the people behave like this. It’s nothing. You don’t know what the people are like? Frightened, hacked two people to death, and then calmed down. You have done all the actions for so many years for nothing? Go ahead, just find a few who are in their early days. Could it be that we have been preparing for such a long time that we can still destroy a Wei Ming? And, do you have to remember, Someone behind us is supporting. He Weiming wants to stop us, he is like a man with a man's arm as a car." The middle-aged man in the main seat said disdainfully.
"I'll do it now. However, I'm still a little worried, we'd better prepare. After all, Wei Ming is not a good person to deal with." The white-faced scholar said.
"Qian Longhao, Lord Qian Xiang, when did you become so careful? Wasn't it that one of your little girls was arrested by Wei Ming? Her apostasy was because of her unsteady will and nothing to do with you. The leader has made a decision a long time ago, what are you still worried about? Okay, let's do your thing." The middle-aged man said.
"Wang Xuyi, although you are an elder in the teaching, I, Qian Longhao, really have nothing to fear from you. Don’t forget our vow when we joined the teaching. What we have to do is to help the people and be able to make The people in the world can live and work in peace and contentment. It is not for the benefit of a few people to make the world be charcoal and the people will not live." Qian Longhao gritted his teeth and said with flashing eyes.
"Qian Longhao, don't pretend to be in front of me. I will ask you, senior officials do you want to do it? Houlu, do you want to take it? He used to be a commoner in Fengyang, but now he can sit high in the temple. Overlooking the world. Why can't we?" Wang Xu said disdainfully.
"You..." Qian Longhao was speechless when asked. Although he didn't want to do something to be sorry for the innocent people. But at the thought of being able to appoint Hou Baixiang and his wife Yinzi, I couldn’t help but feel excited. His ambivalent mentality made him live a very painful life. After hesitating for a long time, he finally sighed and said: "Elder Wang, then we don't overdo it. Just kill the chickens and the monkeys. There is no need to kill evil. ."
"Well, well, we have long known that Lord Qian Xiang is a kind person. Killing chickens is good, and I don't want to see the blood flow in rivers. Lord Qian Xiang, please!" Wang Xu gave the order, Qian Longhao coldly He snorted, turned and walked out of the big tent, and went to look for the people who were not pleasing to the eye and could use it. After Qian Longhao got out of the tent, Wang Xuyi snorted disdainfully. Do you think you can kill less if you want to kill less? What a joke! If the people are so controllable, how could my Bailian Sect still be like this? I just stood up and said a few words, do you think this kind of life is really easy
"Come here!" Wang Xu clapped his hands, and two people flashed out from behind the tent, bowing their hands to Wang Xu with expressionless expressions.
"Go, prepare things, notify senior cadres, and be ready to evacuate at any time." As soon as Wang Xu finished speaking, the two got out of the tent.
"You know that Wei Ming is not easy to deal with, do you think I don't know? Ten thousand people can stop Wei Ming's iron hoof? Do you think I am stupid? The leader has long seen that you are wrong. This time, just let it go. You are here, bear Wei Ming's anger! Hahaha!" Wang Xu laughed up to the sky.
Hundreds of households sent by Li Zicheng came to the gate of the peasant army and reported the letter with the same name to indicate their intentions. Seeing that Wei Ming had sent someone over, Qian Longhao let him in when he knew the intention.
To be able to work under Li Zicheng's one hundred households, his subordinates must be born in poverty. Li Zicheng doesn't like the kind of noble sons who are born with a golden spoon. Therefore, this hundred households also fully understood the difficulties of the people. Seeing the yellow-faced and thin-faced peasant army, it was not a feeling in my heart. If he can choose, he really doesn't want to fight these peasant army.
"Are you Wei Ming's messenger?" Qian Longhao came to his tent and sat on the main seat.
"The messenger can't talk about it. Because this is not a battle between the two countries, you are still the people of Ming Dynasty. I just wanted to tell you that my guardian wants to talk to your coach. If you have any problems, you can naturally meet face to face. Weihou said that Qing Daoming is better than suffering here." Baihu said.
"Suffering alive?" Qian Longhao was unhappy when he heard this. Standing up, pacing to the front of Baihu, grabbing Baihu by the neck and shouting: "You also know that you are suffering here? So what did you do earlier? Weihou shouted all day for the welfare of the people. The slogan, what did he do? Originally, he was thinking of the people, but now that he is worth a million, does he regard himself as a noble? After worshiping the general, he is also sealed, does he look down on our mud legs You know, without our mud legs, where can he have the Wei Ming of today! Go back and tell your Wei Hou, if you want to meet, come to my big account to meet. I am not going to other places. Okay. , Please go back!" Qian Longhao said coldly, letting go of the hundred households.
At this moment, a few people walked in from outside the tent. Qian Longhao glanced at them. They were all from the White Lotus Cult, and he didn't care. Maybe he yelled too loudly just now, and he called in his men. But he couldn't understand the next thing. The few people didn't ask him anything, but went straight up and knocked Baihu to the ground, stabbing him several times with a steel knife in his hand. Hundred households didn't understand why this was happening until they died.
Not only hundreds of households didn't understand, even Qian Longhao didn't understand.
"What are you doing!" Qian Longhao roared, and several Bailian cultists knelt down quickly, and the leader said consolently: "Long Lord, I wait, I waited for the incense lord to be so angry, I thought it was this servant. After saying something that angered the incense lord, he did this, and asked the incense lord to forgive him."
Qian Longhao glanced at the hundreds of households who were lying on the ground and couldn't die. They were all dead, what else could they say? Waved his hand and let his subordinates dispose of the corpse. The matter this time is really big.
