Qin Jiben came over covered in blood and said: "Brother! I found a cellar in the back courtyard of the Wei Mansion, with mountains of grain and some gold and silver utensils piled inside!" Seeing that the two brothers were in a bad mood, Qin Ge didn't say anything. Stride to the cellar!
In the cellar, Qin Ge was shocked by the sight in front of him. He saw three granaries placed inside, densely packed with grain and some gold and silver utensils! There are also some weapons!
"These bastards! We have so much food at home, but they watch the refugees starve to death and exchange their children for food! They deserve to die!" Qin Fuguan clenched his fists and shouted in a low voice, which seemed to alleviate the sin in his heart a lot!
"We are here to kill people and seize food! Three little bastards, remember! If our Qin family wants to rise in this world, we must step on other people's bones and endless sins! Remember today!" Qin Ge's voice was low, Suddenly he turned his head and looked at Qin Jizong and the others.
The three of Qin Jizong fell into silence. Qin Jiben took a deep breath and said with a cracked smile: "From the moment you became my eldest brother in Qinjiazhuang, I decided to follow you for the rest of my life. As long as you give the order, eldest brother, I will follow you." My halberd can be raised to anyone!"
Qin Jiwu raised his war shield, cupped his fists and said, "For the glory of the Qin family, Jiwu is willing to be the eldest brother's war sword!"
Qin Jizong still looked hesitant and seemed unable to let go. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said: "Brother! This is a last resort in our territory where there is no way out. It is a helpless move to save hundreds of thousands of refugees. This is a worthy act." Justice in the heart!" But his voice became smaller and smaller, and finally fell into silence.
Qin Ge patted the shoulders of the three brothers and said: "You are the future pillars of the Qin family and my brothers and sisters. I hope that our brothers will work together to revitalize the Qin Dynasty!" Qin Jizong's eyes flashed with determination. Qin Fukian looked at the four figures in front of him with emotion in his eyes. He, Qin Fujin and other uncles had lived in the village for most of their lives. Although they had read poetry and were proficient in martial arts, some of their ideas had been fixed, unlike those of Man Chong and Sun Guan. Comparing the characters is like a flying firefly and a bright moon, but among the descendants of the Qin family, the five Qin Jizongs grew up rapidly after they came to the territory. Qin Jiwu was good at holding on, Qin Jiben was good at attacking, Qin Jizong was good at attacking, and Jiwen and Jiwu were good at politics. Growth is rapid. In the battle with the bandits in Jubao Village, Qin Jizong and the others had outshone Qin Fujin and others in terms of combat performance and military command! With unlimited growth potential, he will be the real pillar of the Qin family in the future!
Qin Ge collected all the supplies in the cellar, but unexpectedly robbed three million units of grain! This is enough to cover the expenses of the refugees for ten days. After converting other financial items, I found about 500 taels of gold, and I also found a gold-grade inner strength and mental method! No wonder during this period, many evolvers in China who colluded with bandits were keen on attacking the squires!
After plundering the Wei Village, Han Feng led the crowd and roared away! In this battle, one member of the Qin family was killed. Seeing this group of crazy bandits disappear, the entire Wei family village fell into mourning!
The news that Weijiazhuang was looted and murdered by Hu Biao immediately spread throughout Panshi Town. Since there have been many incidents of bandits attacking and killing squires in neighboring towns recently, it is not surprising that Weijiazhuang was looted. But now that the refugees have no food or clothing, who cares about this matter?
Three days later, all the squires from Panshi Town came to the Free Territory as if agreed! Free to lead the meeting hall, more than a dozen of the sons of Weijiazhuang, wearing sackcloth and mourning, accused Hu Biao of his crimes to other squires in the meeting hall! The eyes of the other squires shone with fear.
Man Chong arrived late at this time, and a squire slapped the table and shouted at Man Chong: "Where is Pavilion Chief Qin! Such a shocking murder happened in our Panshi Town, where is he! As a pavilion chief, he actually let the gangsters in the town. What did he do to commit murder! I want to report him to the county government!" At this time, a potbellied old man was the owner of Gaojiazhuang, which is adjacent to Weijiazhuang, and one of the famous squires in Panshi Town!
Man Chong had expected these people to come, and said with a faint smile: "Excuse me, everyone! Our lords are currently busy with the post-disaster reconstruction of Panshi Town! Today we went to Baishi Village to monitor the construction of the village!"
The head of the Gao family said angrily: "Lord Qin is putting the cart before the horse! We pay the tax to the court every year on his behalf, not the refugees. Lord Qin is so disregardful of our life and death, so don't blame us for being rude!"
Man Chong calmly clasped his fists and said: "Well! Nowadays, thieves are on the rise in the entire Taishan County. I heard that there have been seven or eight cases of squires being robbed in Shixiazhai and Lijia Town near the town, and bandits are even more rampant in the seven towns in the west. , speaking of it, our public security in Panshi Town is still the best! I believe that County Magistrate Gao will definitely know everything!" This head of the Gao family is from the same clan as Magistrate Gao Mo, but is a branch of the Gao clan!
The head of the Gao family was speechless when he heard what Man Chong said. To be honest, among the towns in Mou County, only Panshi Town is the most stable. The seven towns in the east have the least riots because Qin Ge has accepted a large number of refugees! The eight towns in the west are now in chaos, and many refugees from the seven towns are even flocking to Panshi Town!
"Then... Can Lord Qin send troops to protect us? Lord Qin is brave and good at fighting. His reputation for bravery is well known to everyone in Taishan County. The Free Army is an iron-blooded army. Can you drive away the Black Wind Village!" A squire grabbed the head of the Gao family and asked, Begged to Man Chong.
Man Chong shrugged and said: "Well... At present, all the Free Army has been dispersed by the Lord and sent to various towns to help the people rebuild after the disaster. The Free Territory has no other troops except self-protection soldiers!" At this time, a small official ran away outside the door. He came in and clasped his fists and said, "My lord in charge! Director Chen sent someone here to report something!" Man Chong clasped his fists at everyone and left in a hurry! All the squires were left looking at each other in shock!
Three days later, the Gaojiazhuang was looted again by Hu Biao. The two thousand warriors prepared by the Gao family to resist the bandits were killed and dispersed. The head of the Gao family's head was cut off and hung in front of the house.
The day after Gaojiazhuang was looted, all the squires in Panshi Town gathered in the meeting hall, clamoring to see Qin Ge, but this time they didn't even see Man Chong!
Behind the meeting hall, in Qin Ge's mansion, Man Chong and Qin Ge were playing chess. In order to adapt to the cultural customs of this world, Qin Ge and Man Chong learned Go! Seeing the board full of white stones, Qin Ge threw his chess piece away and said, "We lost again!"
Man Chong said with worry on his face: "These days! Refugees are pouring in. My subordinates underestimated the chaos in the entire Taishan County and the influence of the lord in Taishan County. Refugees from the eastern towns and surrounding counties and towns are pouring into the territory. Now almost three thousand refugees are pouring into Panshi Town every day. If the problem is not solved quickly, I’m afraid we won’t be able to survive for many days!”
Qin Ge looked at the chessboard and pondered for a long time, then placed a chess piece on the chessboard and said, "Since there is no other way! Then don't blame me for being cruel! Not only do we have squires in our town, there are also other towns, counties and cities!" Man Chong was shocked. , but finally let out a long sigh, attacking the squire in this way is tantamount to killing the goose that takes the egg, because most of the squires are talented people!
"Quack! Quack!" A black crow flew in and landed on Qin Ge's shoulder. The crow's voice rang in Qin Ge's mind: "Prefect Zhang Ji's cousin embezzled the court's disaster relief food funds and was beaten to death in public by Zang Jie, the father of Zang Ba. , Zhang Ji was furious, and took Zang Jie into custody, preparing to execute him. Zang Ba was furious! He issued a righteous order to Taishan County and called on the heroes to attack the county. All parties responded with force!" The crow finally turned into a ball of black air and disappeared.
Qin Ge's eyes widened in shock, and he was speechless for a long time. Finally, he sighed: "The broken house has been raining for many years, and the people of Taishan County will suffer!" After finishing the dungeon last time, Crow stayed in Taishan County to do it. Intelligence, an intelligence network has been initially established in Taishan County!
Man Chong had never seen Qin Ge so distracted. When asked about the situation, Qin Ge told Man Chong about Zang Ba!
Man Chong touched his palm and sighed: "This time the people of Taishan County will be in great trouble! Zang Ba, the five brothers of the Zang family, is known as the first righteous man in Taishan County. He is respected by the heroes from all walks of life in Taishan. "Zang Ba doesn't know it. Hardly a hero! "This shows Zang Ba's influence. Zang Ba also has four brothers, Zang Ren, Zang Jiang, Zang Jun, Zang Piao, and Zang Li. These four are also famous people in the prefecture and county. Now that Zang Ba has raised his arms, I am afraid that Taishan County All the people in the green forest will compete to be the vanguard, and recently the Yellow Turban Army has begun to spread propaganda and deceive the refugees, and the entire Taishan County will be a river of blood!"
Qin Ge's eyes flashed with evil thoughts and said: "Now we can only block it with soldiers, and the water and soil are covering us up. Send an order to monitor the Yellow Turban Taoist priests in Panshi Town. If found, kill them without mercy! Summon the soldiers of the three armies to prepare for the battle!"
Zang Ba's call for justice caused a sensation in Taishan County. Many bandits and powerful people raised their banners of justice in response to Zang Ba. However, some people with ulterior motives also incited the refugees. Incited by the refugees, the refugees began to attack villages and even towns. Taishan County was suddenly in chaos. It became a pot of porridge.
Not long after, something happened that caused panic in the seven towns in the east. The bandits from Heifengzhai and other towns gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses, combined with the refugees to form an army of hundreds of thousands, and actually defeated Lijia Town. The squires were slaughtered! For a time, the squires in the seven eastern towns were shocked. The squires from all walks of life in Panshi Town crowded into the meeting hall of the Free Territory and asked to see Qin Ge one after another.
In the back hall of the meeting hall, Qin Ge, Feng Lie, Man Chong, Sun Guan, Chen Yuan, and Qin Fuguan were sitting at attention, while Zhuge Xiaoliang showed them the video of Zang Ba's conquest of Taishan County on the forum.
Zhuge Xiaoliang rushed back from Taishan County yesterday. This auction can be said to have made a lot of money. A set of black scale armor was sold to a mysterious force for a high price of thirty gold, while the breaking knife was sold for fifteen gold. The price was sold out, and the large amount of wealth gave Freeman a brief respite.
Zhuge Xiaoliang smiled and said: "Brother! This time Zang Ba's rebellion can be said to be a small plot before the big plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Participating in the battle between the two sides and killing the enemy's evolvers and troops can earn points. 1 point for the iron product, 1 point for the bronze product. There are 5 points for each grade, and the points will increase five times for each grade. With the points, you can exchange rewards from the government and Zang Ba respectively, including official titles, weapons, transfer quotas for special arms, architectural drawings, and food and grass!" Qin Ge looked at it! For a moment, the official ranks start from the smallest pavilion chief. Each position of pavilion chief costs 5,000 points. There are also some artifacts and advanced architectural drawings, which all cost a lot of points.
Zhuge Xiaoliang rubbed his hands and said: "The highest redeemable official title here is the Lord of a County, which requires one hundred thousand points. With our strength, we should be able to achieve it!"
Qin Ge shook his head and said: "You are too naive, not to mention how many brothers we will die for these 100,000 points. In the current world situation, the real power is in the hands of each family. They will not favor you, just be a county magistrate." So what, we won’t participate in this plot mission, just defend the territory!” Qin Ge directly rejected Zhuge Xiaoliang’s proposal, and Zhuge Xiaoliang smiled.
Qin Ge looked around the crowd and said: "Zang Ba's rescue of his father this time not only made the entire Taishan County situation mysterious and dangerous, but this is not a good opportunity for us to consolidate our local power and develop and grow! Follow me out!"
In the hall, the village chiefs of each village, the squires of each village, and some evolved village chiefs gathered together. Qin Ge came to the hall surrounded by everyone. Everyone stood up and greeted Qin Ge.
Qin Ge sat on the main seat and said straight to the point: "Everyone! Natural disasters are ahead, and now Zang Ba has recruited powerful people from all over Taishan County to attack the county. Now Taishan County is like a pot of boiling water. If you want to survive in this environment, Going forward, everyone must unite as one. I decided to establish an alliance in Panshi Town to bring everyone's strength together to survive in this troubled world. Man Chong will read out the covenant I made to everyone!"
Man Chong spread out a roll of parchment and said: "In order to strengthen the power of Panshi Town and ease the impact of refugees on the territory, an alliance will be formed with the Free Territory as the leader! Article 1: Each village and squire will donate half of the food and materials. Open resource points to settle refugees! Article 2: Each noble clan donates half of the land to the alliance to settle the people! Article 3: Each village in Panshi Town must obey the administrative management of the Free Territory and accept the administration of the Free Territory Plan! Article 4: One person from every five households in each village will be selected for military service, and the service period is five years. Article 5: The number of village warriors in the alien territory cannot exceed 500, and all other troops will be under the unified management of the alliance! As long as you obey For the above five items, I, the Free Leader, swear in the name of Lord Qin to protect the harmony of Panshi Town!"
"Qin! You are trying to annex the entire Panshi Town!" an evolved village chief said angrily.
Qin Ge squinted his eyes and smiled faintly: "Now the Yellow Turban Army is everywhere in Taishan County, and bandits are rampant. If you join the alliance, you can hang my free alliance flag on the territory. I, Qin Ge, will protect them. If they don't form an alliance, then he will be responsible for it." Life and death, and I can tell you that now the food and grass in the Free Territory are almost exhausted. By then, these more than 400,000 refugees will become more than 400,000 rebels. I don’t need to tell you what will happen to you by then!"
A squire quickly came out and said: "Master Qin, you are the only one in Mou County who can protect us now!" Bandits are rampant in Taishan County now, and even some county towns are under attack. The squires see no way out, and Qin Ge is famous for his wars. , they saw hope, and what Qin Ge said had touched their life and death.
Several squires looked at each other and said: "Lord Qin, we are willing to obey your suggestion. The world is in chaos and thieves are rising. In ancient times, alliances were established in troubled times. We are willing to help you and live peacefully in these troubled times!" Other aborigines The lords came out to salute Qin Ge one after another. Although it was a lot of blood, it was better than the Wei family and the Gao family being wiped out. This is the law of troubled times. Only the strong can survive!
