At this time, people looting could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys of Lanling County, South Vietnam.
Look here.
When the shopkeeper of a fruit stall was about to close the door, several people gathered around him, and some people joined forces and hugged the shopkeeper tightly.
The remaining people walked into the door that had not yet been closed, and used their pockets and clothes to put the fruits in the store into their own bags.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper shouted anxiously: "Don't rob! Don't rob! What will I eat if you rob me?!"
However, no one paid attention to him and insisted on grabbing the fruit.
Seeing that he was being hugged and unable to move away, and then seeing his fruits being snatched by the common people, the shopkeeper's eyes became red and a few tears fell.
"That's all my food." The shopkeeper said sadly.
Nowadays, it is difficult to see rice in Da Mo. Since the Jiang Lai disaster last year, coupled with the bad weather conditions in the second half of the year, the price of all rice in Da Mo has increased dramatically.
In the past, you could buy rice for a little money, but now you may not be able to buy it even if you pay three times the price.
Many people in Damo only rely on flour and some fruits and vegetables.
Even this flour is also affected by rice, and the price increase is terrible.
Seeing the inhumane people walking out of the store with their own fruits made the shopkeeper feel very distressed. He cried and said: "We've finished robbing, what should I eat?"
However, it was still the same, no one paid attention to the fruit shopkeeper.
Seeing that the plan had been accomplished, the people holding him let go and ran away.
After being freed, the shopkeeper hurried to the store.
Seeing that there were still a few people who were still using their things for nothing, the shopkeeper was so angry that he threw a few fruits at these people, and then shouted: "Put them down! Put them down! They are all my things, why? Take it away!”
I saw that after seeing these people who were still having sex for free, they hurriedly picked up a few more fruits, and hurried out of the store with the fruits in their hands, and disappeared without a trace.
At this time, there is still a brave common man who is still having sex for free.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper picked up a stick and was about to swing it at the young man.
Seeing that the shopkeeper was getting mad, the man hurriedly grabbed some more fruits, dodged the shopkeeper's stick, and ran out in a hurry.
Some fruits that were not held firmly fell down and rolled at the door of the shopkeeper's shop.
Several people who were scrambling for food on the street saw a few fruits lying on the ground over there, and hurriedly came here.
There are only a few fruits left in the shopkeeper's shop at this time.
Seeing these fruits and the people running over there, the shopkeeper hurriedly locked the door.
Fortunately, this time the speed was fast enough, the door was closed, and several fruits in the shop were saved.
Several people outside the shop started grabbing some fruits lying on the ground.
The weaker people were even punched a few times.
The shopkeeper in the shop looked at the few remaining fruits and was very sad.
What he saw lying on the ground was the one he had just smashed with fruit.
Seeing the fruits on the ground, the shopkeeper hurried over, picked them up carefully, held them tightly in his arms, and shed a few tears for this.
Then, I heard the shopkeeper crying in the dark shop.
"God
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Lord! How can you treat poor people like us like this? "
…
"Master! Master!"
After saying these words, the housekeeper Cen Sheng hurriedly walked towards Master Sun Zhicai's study.
After hearing the words of the housekeeper Cen Sheng, Master Sun Zhicai hurriedly put down the books he was holding and looked at the housekeeper Cen Sheng who hurried in.
Sun Zhicai asked: "What's wrong?"
Seeing this, the butler Cen Sheng looked at Mr. Sun with a smile on his face and said, "You are really good at predicting things."
"How come things are like gods?" Mr. Sun Zhicai didn't understand what the housekeeper Cen Sheng meant.
Seeing that the master didn't seem to know what he was talking about, the housekeeper Cen Sheng hurriedly explained: "Sir, have you forgotten? A few days ago, you asked me to stock up on food, saying that we wouldn't be able to buy it in a few days. "
After hearing what the housekeeper Cen Sheng said, Mr. Sun Zhi remembered it and looked at the housekeeper Cen Sheng with a face of realization.
"Master, you really guessed it right. Now the street is full of people rushing for food, and it's a mess." Butler Cen Sheng said.
Listening to Cen Sheng's words, Master Sun Zhicai frowned, looked at Cen Sheng, and asked: "How long will the food we hoard be enough for us?"
Cen Sheng thought for a while and said, "It should be enough for a month or two."
After hearing this, although Sun Zhicai didn't worry about eating now, thinking about eating in the future made Sun Zhicai worried.
Seeing the master's silent and sad expression, the housekeeper Cen Sheng asked: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
After listening to Cen Sheng's words, Master Sun Zhicai raised his head, looked at Cen Sheng, and said: "It's nothing. Please pay attention to the outside during these days and don't let anyone steal our food."
"Okay, don't worry, Master." After saying this, the housekeeper Cen Sheng walked out.
On one side, Nanyue Province was hoarding food, while on the other side, the people in the capital were still living in an orderly manner.
"Grand Governor Du Antong!" Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi shouted in the court hall.
After hearing the sound, Grand Governor Du Antong stood up, looked at Su Yunqi, and then lowered his head.
"Your Majesty is here." Commander Du An said.
"I heard that the governors of two provinces acted without authorization. What happened?" Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, asked.
After listening to the sound, the Grand Governor Du Antong answered truthfully: "Back to the Prime Minister, the governors of Mozhang Province and Nanyue Province acted without authorization. This... this..."
Seeing Du Antong suddenly hesitant, Su Yunqi asked: "What, what? Tell the truth."
"The two governors were dissatisfied with the plan given by the imperial court, so they took action without authorization. After the Guangnan incident is over, I will hold the officials accountable." Du An channeled.
After hearing this, Su Yunqi thought about it and realized that there was nothing he could do. There was no new news about the matter and he didn't want to say anything more.
Su Yun frowned when he thought of the memorials that had been sent from various prefectures and counties in Nanyue Province in the past few days.
Looking at the civil and military officials in front of him, Su Yun said: "Recently, local officials in various prefectures and counties in South Vietnam have sent memoranda one after another to the court, and what they say are all because of the locust plague."
"In many places, because of the locust plague, people have been hoarding food. The price of food has risen rapidly. Many people cannot afford it. They are robbing and beating in the city. The local government is helpless. Let the court come up with a solution. .”
"Everyone, is there any way to solve this locust plague?" Su Yunqi asked.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
I asked, but no one answered.
At this time, Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, had no choice but to name him: "Ding Shangshu, please tell me."
After hearing his name being called, Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, stood up and looked at the look Su Yunqi was giving him. Ding Liu spoke bluntly: "Prime Minister Zuo, the only way to solve this problem is food and silver. But now the imperial court has food and silver." They are all in short supply and there is nothing we can do.”
"If you can't think of anything, just think about it. I give you three days to think of a way. If you can't think of anything, just retire and return to your hometown." Su Yunqi said.
After hearing this, Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, had no choice but to agree: "Yes."
At this time, on the Guangnan side, Chunxu and his team were encountering Governor Du of Nanyue Province who was coming.
Looking at the tens of thousands of unruly people in front of him, Governor Du was still a little panicked.
With an attitude of giving it a try, he looked at his brothers and shouted: "Don't look at the number of them! We are soldiers of the imperial court after all. Beating them is nothing more than hitting a few flies!" After saying this, Governor Du raised his hand He gripped the long knife tightly and stabbed towards the leader Chunxu on the opposite side.
A team of tens of thousands of people fought fiercely with a team of several thousand people.
General Lin Xubai took the knife in his hand and slashed at the governor's soldiers one by one.
If you don't touch it, you won't know. If you touch it, it will jump.
After all, Governor Du underestimated the enemy. When he met the leader on the opposite side, he found that this swordsmanship was not something that ordinary people could do.
Every time the long knife in his hand stabbed him, Chunxu could avoid it perfectly.
When Chunxu stabbed at Governor Du, Governor Du was almost hit every time.
"Who are you? Why are you so knowledgeable?" Governor Du asked.
Chunxu smiled slightly: "Of course I am what you call a troublesome person." After saying this, he made a cut on Governor Du's waist with a sword in order to prevent Governor Du from paying attention.
Not long after the fight, all Governor Du's men had been sacrificed, and Chunxu and Lin Xubai's brothers combined still numbered tens of thousands, or more than 30,000 to be precise.
"How? What can you say before you die?" Chunxu asked with a smile on his face.
Looking at the unruly people surrounding him one by one, and seeing that all his own people have been destroyed, and he can't escape even if he wants to, he will definitely not do the surrender.
Governor Du smiled: "I really underestimated you. Anyway, I'm going to die, so it's okay to tell you. You can defeat my army of one governor, but you can't defeat the forces of several governors. Now, there are still six governors. The troops are waiting for you to surrender." After saying this, Governor Du smiled again, took the knife in his hand, took the initiative to touch his neck, and fell down.
Seeing that everyone had been cleaned up, Lin Xubai on the side asked: "Brother Chunxu, what should we do next?"
"Go to Yishi Mansion and fight as many troops as you come." Chunxu said.
After finishing speaking, Chunxu led the brothers towards Yishi Mansion.
But He Yuhong and Zheng Chui, who were walking towards Liangcheng Mansion, ran into soldiers from the imperial court.
Looking at this posture, there are only seven or eight thousand people.
However, the combined strength of Zheng Chui and He Yuhong was only more than 10,000, less than 20,000.
Seeing this, He Yuhong felt a little panicked, thinking that after the fight, all the brothers would have to be only two or three thousand people.
While the two were still hesitating whether to fight, the governor in front of them rushed up with his soldiers.
This governor is Gu Guangqi, the governor of Nanzhong Province.
The brothers He Yuhong and Zheng Chui had no choice but to fight.
