The water flooded Jinshan Mountain, razing the entire Jinshan Temple to the ground, and killing all the evil monks such as Fa Hai. Xu Xian has reversed the disaster of flooding Jinshan Mountain.
In Xu Xian's view, Bai Suzhen's fate has been rewritten.
He didn't know that Fa Hai still had his last life.
Xu Xian disbanded the Refugee Self-Defense Force and retained only the 30,000 troops of Wujiang Camp.
Wujiang camp was rectified by Xu Xian, with only more than 23,000 people left. Xu Xian recruited soldiers from the civilian population, and some former refugee self-defense forces joined.
In the next time, Xu Xian planned to use his status as the prefect to equally distribute the fertile land of Jinshan Temple to the tenant farmers.
This work was too complicated to do, Xu Xian just put forward his idea and let Qisha, Pojun, Greedy Wolf, Tiancan, Dique and others do the specific implementation in order to ensure fairness and justice.
Huijue was bored and volunteered to join.
Qiao Da, Qiao Er, Qiao San and Wu Jiangying also joined in.
Michelle Li and Zhou Qingyun also proposed to join.
Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, Xiao Qing, Qiao Xiaodie and others are responsible for coordinating the overall situation and controlling the execution process.
To be more specific, it means to go among the people, travel around the mountains and rivers every day, help the living people, and listen to the tenant farmers' opinions on the distribution of fertile land.
There is strength in numbers, and after about half a month, it was basically done, and the system’s voice also sounded at this time:
"The city of Hangzhou was destroyed, Fang La was unable to restrain military discipline, and Hangzhou has become a hell on earth.
Mission: Rescue innocent victims in distress.
Rewards: Different rewards are triggered based on the number of people rescued, and you get a chance to draw a lottery. "
The city of Hangzhou was destroyed. Xu Xian was worried about the danger of his parents and sister. He was also worried that Jishi Hall would be affected by the war. Without a systematic mission, Xu Xian would go back.
The affairs of Zhenjiang Mansion are almost settled, and the rest is left to the Qiao family to follow up. Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, Huijue, Qiao Xiaodie, Qisha, Pojun, Greedy Wolf, Tiancan, Dique and others will directly Back to Hangzhou.
Except for Tian Can and Di Que, everyone can fly. In order to return to Hangzhou as soon as possible, this time I chose to fly back.
On the eve of the Fangla Uprising, there was a severe drought in the south of the Yangtze River. The ground in Zhejiang was cracked by the sun, the leaves were withered, and the ground was scorched, but there was no rice harvest.
The people ate bark, grass and roots, unable to fill their stomachs, and suffered from hunger every day. In order to prepare for war, the government came to collect taxes and collected all the grains that the people collected from the mountains.
The people's bellies were starving, but the grain depots in the mansion were filled to the brim with cart after cart of food.
Regarding this grain levy, Zhuge Banshan proposed a reform, not to levy the poor people, but to levy large landowners like Fa Hai.
Those big landowners were members of various forces, and many of them even held high positions in the court, which harmed their interests and naturally met with fierce opposition.
In Da Chu, the status of scholar-bureaucrats was very high. Chu Taizong proposed "ruling the world with scholar-bureaucrats." The scholar-bureaucrats in Da Chu had very strong political power.
Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of Chu, also ordered that the well-known "Three Precepts on Stones" be engraved on his tombstone, hoping that the civil service system would continue to develop and grow in future generations.
"Taizu laid a stone and locked it in the palace, so that his successor could ascend the throne. He entered and knelt down to read. There are three precepts:
1. Preserve the descendants of the Chai family;
2. Do not kill scholar-bureaucrats;
3. Do not add farmland gifts.
Alas! If there are these three, it cannot be called a great virtue. "
He also stipulated that scholar-bureaucrats could not be killed, so naturally, civil servants also became the targets of protection. Throughout the history of Da Chu, almost no civil servants were executed.
The status of scholar-bureaucrats is one of the reasons.
On the other hand, it was because it didn't matter to Chu Huizong which side the food was collected from, he only wanted food.
The common people are relatively weak, no one speaks for them, and there are few voices of opposition. It has always been like this, so Chu Huizong's choice did not change.
Fang La seized this opportunity to encourage the refugees to rebel and formally attacked the city.
On the eve of the fall of Hangzhou, there were more than three million refugees outside the city, three times the number in Zhenjiang Prefecture.
Under normal circumstances, there would not be so many refugees outside Hangzhou. Most of them were driven over by Fang La's rebels from various places.
Hangzhou is not as serious as Zhenjiang. Land annexation is not that serious, and there are more wealthy people. They often go out in groups to give porridge.
From time to time, wealthy people would go outside the city to give porridge, while 30,000 military troops were responsible for maintaining order.
During a routine meal, the refugees suddenly took action and attacked the Wuwei army.
The ones who attacked Wuwei Army were not ordinary people, but assassins trained by Fang La.
The strength of the Wuwei Army was mediocre to begin with, and they lost the opportunity to mount an effective counterattack. However, the defender at the top of the city was overconfident. Instead of strictly guarding the city gate, he led his troops to rescue the Wuwei Army.
A large number of rebels poured out from the side and rushed directly into the city.
Fang La's rebels effortlessly broke through the city using the cover of the refugees.
Zhao Ting heard that the city gate was broken and Wuwei's army suffered heavy casualties, so he escaped from Hangzhou with his trusted followers. Fortunately, he escaped with his life.
Fang La, like other peasant uprisings, was brutal and killed innocent people indiscriminately.
Fang La captured the Chu army officers and killed them all. This includes death, dismemberment, disembowelment, random arrows piercing the body, and even boiling oil in a pot.
When attacking Hangzhou, Fang La's army set fires without any scruples and burned a large number of innocent people to death.
Fang La actually wanted to avoid harming innocent civilians as much as possible.
Fang La's military personnel were too complicated. Some were even bandits who robbed homes and houses. They revolted in the name of fighting local tyrants, not killing officials for the people, but just for their own selfish interests.
In order to strengthen his own strength, Fang La could only turn a blind eye, close one eye, and pretend not to see it.
After entering the city, the rebels burned, killed, and looted all the way. They were so red-eyed that they went crazy.
No one can tell who is a wealthy person and who is a good citizen. Whether to kill or not depends on their mood.
Fang Qifu, Fang Baihua and others can maintain their original intentions and restrain their subordinates, but they cannot stop the surging trend.
Although Shenggong Fangla was a little worried about the loose discipline of the rebel army, he had no idea of rectifying it. He wanted to conquer the world with thunder first, and then establish rules after conquering the world.
Fang Qifu and Fang Baihua advised Fang La to rectify the rebel army first and then take over the world, so as not to harm innocent people.
Fang La said that there was not enough time, and the court would not give him that much time. The rebels were a ragtag group. If they were to be reorganized, there would definitely be internal conflicts, and they might just disperse.
Fang La needs everyone to work together to conquer the world.
Fang La did whatever it took to achieve his goal, and even allowed his men to coerce refugees and attack the city, thus losing the support of the people.
Fang La's rebels have lost their justice and become bandits who do all kinds of evil.
Called Fang Bandit, he is well deserved.
Fang La's rebels seemed to be unscrupulous in Hangzhou, but they still avoided places related to Xu Xian wherever they went.
Xu Mansion, Ji Shi Tang, and Qiantang County Government were not attacked by the rebels because they were related to Xu Xian.
