As Chunxu and the others walked, many people from Nanwang County began to follow behind them.
Looking at such a group of people wandering on the street, there is no one who would not be curious.
Following all the way, these people arrived in front of the county government office in Nanwang County.
Seeing thousands of people crowding the county government office, and seeing that these people were holding knives, swords, arrows and other weapons in their hands, the people of Nanwang County began to discuss in low voices in front of the county government office.
The brothers standing in front of and in the yamen didn't say a word. They looked at the thin people in front of the yamen with their eyes.
"Brother Hong, tell me." Chunxu said with a smile on his face.
Listening to Brother Chunxu's words, He Yuhong was still a little nervous in such a scene. Thinking about the lives of his family, He Yuhong said bravely:
"Folks!"
"We are from Xitong County, just like you, we are ordinary ordinary people. At first, like you, I was hungry almost every day, thinking that the court would take care of it, and that life would get better day by day. Yes. But as for the imperial court, does it care about our people?"
"Last year! Grain production decreased. My family is a rich family, so it's better. We only go hungry two or three days a week, but it's not like a rich family like mine, who go hungry every day. No, a few days ago, the court collected taxes without thinking! How can you afford this?"
When the young man on the stage shouted, some people nodded, knowing this feeling very well.
"Last September, the imperial court suddenly implemented a sea ban, which seriously hindered our people's business transactions. As long as we sell goods overseas, we violate the sea ban. Now, I can't figure it out. This is obviously a business. This is You didn't do anything, so why did you end up with the whole family beheaded?"
"Yes." Several people below said.
He Yuhong continued to express his thoughts: "Perhaps you don't know much about this matter. If you live on the coast or have a big family at home, and have business cooperation with overseas, you may be able to understand the cruelty of this sea ban."
"Yes, I am the one who violated the sea ban. A dozen days ago, because there was a lot of money from overseas, I wanted to sell the brocade at home overseas. My slave Zimo was arrested by the government for this. Later, He also died in prison. In order to leave a legacy, my whole family expelled me from the family tree, and the whole family died for me."
"I'm not willing to give in! Why is a business that violates the sea ban? Why is this sea ban so important and has such broad scope?! If the sea ban hadn't come out yet, would what I did be illegal?"
After listening to this man's words, some people standing outside the Yamen sympathized with him.
"Folks in Nanwang County! Today, we can no longer rely on the court to give us a good life. The brother next to me is a great hero in Xitong County, and he leads the folks in Xitong County. My brother Zhang Chunxu said , only by overthrowing the imperial court can we live a good life! Live a life where the world has the same clothes to wear, the same food to eat, the same money to make, and the same fields to farm!"
"Okay!" Some people in Nanwang County clapped their hands and cheered.
Looking at the supportive faces of the common people, He Yuhong no longer knew what to say and looked at Chunxu with a smile on his face.
"Brother Xu, tell me next," He Yuhong said.
"Okay. Then let me talk." After answering, looking at the large group of people standing in front of him, Chunxu said: "Folks of Nanwang County! Today the governor led troops to suppress our Nanwang County. Wangxian County was beaten by us on the way and the whole army was wiped out. Folks! Follow us, as long as I have a bite to eat, you will be able to eat.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If you don’t have a bite of rice, I will have to work hard to let you have a bite of rice. "
Seeing that the people in Nanwang County had noticed the horse meat carried on the shoulders of his brothers just now, Chunxu shouted: "Folks! Knowing that you are hungry, I asked the brothers to kill the governor's horse. , brought the meat for the people to taste." After saying that, Chunxu turned and looked at the brothers standing behind him in a row carrying horse meat, and then said: "Folks of Nanwang County! As long as you join us, there will be You have food to eat. If you don’t want to join, it doesn’t matter. As long as you stand with us and have the heart to resist the imperial court together, you will have your food to eat.”
Chunxu's words made the thin people standing in front of the yamen show happy faces, and they all agreed in unison for food.
Listening to the words of the villagers, Chunxu looked at General Lin Xubai: "You order people to cook the horse meat and give it to the villagers in Nanwang County to taste."
Lin Xubai didn't think much and agreed: "Okay."
After responding, Lin Xubai turned to look at the brothers behind him and said: "Brothers, cook this horse meat and give it to the folks in Nanwang County to try!"
"yes!"
Later, I saw General Lin Xubai's soldiers setting up a large pot in the yamen and starting to cook horse meat.
Although there are no good ingredients, if you sprinkle some salt on it, this horse meat is the most delicious in the mouths of these people.
Thinking that the horse meat would not be cooked so quickly, Chunxu ordered He Yuhong to come: "Brother Hong, order two people to move the table and start recruiting troops." After saying this, Chunxu looked at He Yuhong with a smile on his face.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
Then, He Yuhong ordered two people to move a table out of the Yamen and place it in front of the Yamen.
Chunxu took the booklet and sat on the bench, grinding the ink. After grinding it, Chunxu looked at the many villagers from Nanwang County standing in front of him.
"Folks! Those who are willing to follow us! Come here and sign up. In the future, we will go to the battlefield to kill the enemy together, bring peace to the people, and be the great heroes of the folks!" Chunxu shouted.
After hearing this, it turned out that the horse meat was not ready yet anyway. In order to eat the meat faster, these people came forward one after another, all clamoring to join.
The sky suddenly became cloudy.
The booklet at this time had a few more pages than the original one, but not as many as those in Xitong County. After all, Xitong County had the largest population among the counties managed by Yishi Prefecture.
Just when there was only one citizen to be recorded, rain suddenly fell from the sky.
I thought it was just a light rain, but suddenly the rain started pouring down like an angry tiger.
Looking at the people of Nanwang County who were soaked in the rain in front of him, and looking at the brothers standing in the yamen behind him, Chunxu hurriedly ordered his two generals to come.
"Brother Hong! Xu Bai! This county's yamen is small. Let the brothers find shelter from the rain and make room for the folks in Nanwang County. If the yamen is small, let the brothers feel aggrieved first and go to the prison. Make room for the people of Nanwang County." After saying this, Chunxu hurriedly took the booklet in both hands and ran towards the Yamen.
Seeing Brother Xu's hurried look, He Yuhong, who had just wanted to say something, stopped thinking. Seeing Lin Xubai go to the Yamen to give instructions, He Yuhong hurriedly followed these people in Nanwang County and started talking: "Folks ! Quick! Enter the Yamen to take shelter from the rain!"
At He Yuhong's words, the people of Nanwang County ran towards the Yamen one by one.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
In the yamen, the brothers from Xitong County gave up a large space and crowded under the eaves and in the cells.
Fortunately, there are only tens of thousands of people from Nanwang County, so they can still hide in this yamen.
The cell is located under the county government and can also be called a dungeon.
This cell is about the same size as the entire county government office. Therefore, including the cell and the county government office, it can accommodate more than 20,000 people.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and sometimes you could still smell the smell of horse meat, which immediately made the people standing under the eaves to hide from the rain a lot happy.
At this time, some of the brothers who were hiding from the rain in the cell were unwilling and started shouting in the cell.
"Why are we sheltering from the rain in this cell?"
"What do you think we are?"
"Being a prisoner?"
"Why should the people of Nanwang County be so superior to us that we brothers should be sheltered from the rain in this cell? It's so dark and boring!"
As soon as the bold brother said this, he immediately asked some brothers to side with him.
"that is!"
"What do you think of our brothers?"
Several brothers shouted.
Seeing that one of his own people was complaining like this, a brother hurriedly went to find someone.
Walking out of the cell door, passing through the crowded crowd, I happened to see He Yuhong.
"General!" the brother shouted.
After hearing this, He Yuhong stopped, looked at the brothers in front of him, and said, "What's the matter?"
"Some of the brothers down there complained, saying that they didn't treat them as human beings, and that they were just making noises," the brother said.
"Can you see who it is?" He Yuhong asked.
"He seems to be a great hero." Brother said.
"I understand, please go down and I'll go find him to discuss it."
"Eh."
He Yuhong hurriedly went to find Chunxu.
In this crowded crowd, it is still difficult to find someone.
Finally, after searching for a long time, I found Chunxu. At this time, Chunxu was squatting under a drum and flipping through the booklet with both hands.
This drum is set up by several supports, probably only four supports, and Chunxu is hiding among these supports.
"Brother Xu!" He Yuhong shouted.
After hearing the sound, Chunxu raised his head, looked left and right, and then saw He Yuhong.
"What's wrong?" Chunxu asked.
"Brother Xu, the brothers below are making a fuss, saying that we don't treat them as human beings. In short, they are just arguing. Go and have a look." He Yuhong said.
After listening, Chunxu carefully walked out from under the drum, holding the booklet in his hand, and walked towards the prison with He Yuhong.
Chunxu had just walked to the entrance of the prison and walked on that road. He might have seen Chunxu's figure. The brothers who had just refused to accept it said nothing and looked at the people in front of them who were squeezing through the crowd. Chunxu.
"Who was making trouble just now? I don't treat you as human beings." Chunxu asked.
For a long time, no one answered, but all looked at Chunxu.
Seeing that no one responded or acknowledged, Chunxu stopped.
