He burned the village with fire, took away everything he could, and burned all the land deeds. If the tenants in the village wanted to leave, they could leave. If they didn't want to leave, they could stay here. He didn't force it.
Wang Shun marched all the way to Panshi County, attacking the landlord Zhuangzi he met along the way, and obtained a large amount of food, money and weapons from it. The people who followed him no longer had to fish hard and could eat food every day.
Later, after paying more than fifty lives when attacking Zhuangzi, a large landlord, Wang Shun also captured eight crossbows and fifteen pairs of armor.
Zhou Qixiang was very surprised when he saw the armor.
"These are absolutely contraband. The imperial court strictly ordered civilians not to have crossbows and armor, but there are actually some here. What on earth does this family want to do?"
"No matter what he wants to do, they are all dead now. We have nothing to worry about. They are all people who are going to die after all. Why don't we give him a hard blow before we die!"
Wang Shun smiled, picked out a pair of armors, and then gave another pair to Zhou Qixiang. The next thirteen pairs of armors were given to his favorite thirteen fierce men.
A somewhat promising team has been initially established.
After that, the refugee team led by Wang Shun entered Panshi County and met a large number of other refugee teams in Panshi County. He distributed food to these people who were about to starve to death and saved their lives. Then these refugees They all thanked Wang Shun for his life-saving grace.
Zhou Qixiang suggested that Wang Shun gather them, and Wang Shun claimed that he was the reincarnation of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun, and that he would lead the poor to clean up the dog officials and fill their bellies.
The refugees knew nothing else but that Wang Shun had food here, so they immediately knelt down to worship him and expressed their willingness to obey his orders. Wang Shun was very happy and called on them to attack Panshi County with him and let the dog officials in the county Go to hell.
Then the Zizhou governor in the county really went to hell.
Mainly, Wang Shun also learned the lesson and sent his fierce men to push the carts containing grain close to the county town. He told the city gate soldiers that they were delivering grains to the grain shops in the county town, and while they were inspecting the carts, he took out the carts and hid them inside. With his sword, all the Song soldiers guarding the city gate were hacked to death.
Then Wang Shun immediately rushed over with his men, wiped out the small number of city gate guards, and then entered the city.
The capital of Zizhou was captured by Wang Shun.
The governor of Zizhou and the magistrate of Panshi were hanged by Wang Shun. Every wealthy household in the city was killed one by one. All their property was confiscated and distributed to the people who followed him.
He only took what he deserved and didn't take any more.
During dinner that night, Wang Shun and Zhou Qixiang discussed their ideas.
"It's not a problem to run around all the time. I think we should just treat this county as a long-term residence. The weather is cold and running around can easily freeze people to death. What do you think?"
"It's okay, then the food..."
"I'll take people out to look for farms. Kill every one we find, and kill every one we find. With luck, it will be enough for us to survive the winter and survive until spring. Then we can cultivate food on the surrounding land, and then we won't have to worry about anything until the autumn harvest. "
Wang Shun happily told Zhou Qixiang his plan.
Zhou Qixiang felt that it would be a big problem and too much trouble to survive next year's autumn harvest, but now he had to survive this winter, so he had no other opinions and nodded in agreement with Wang Shun's plan.
They settled the refugees who came with them in the county town and gave them houses from wealthy families to live in. In the end, they arranged livable houses for everyone, and shelter from wind and rain was no longer a problem.
So in the next period of time, the wealthy landlords in Zizhou were in trouble. Wang Shun led a group of roaring old men and swept through almost the entire Zizhou, knocking down all the farms that could be seen, and killing the landlords. All the rich men were hacked to death, and all the food and property were distributed to the poor who fought with him.
So the poor people supported Wang Shun more and more.
In the end, Zhou Qixiang simply suggested that Wang Shun get a decent title, which would make him look more imposing and better command everyone, and bring them together to form a strong survival team, so that everyone would be more likely to survive. big.
Or just break up with this greedy court. Anyway, it's impossible for everyone to go back to the past.
"If the imperial court knows that we are killing officials, they will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress us. Surrendering means death. It is better to just openly rebel, so that the officials know that we who are begging for a living are definitely not easy to bully."
Wang Shun felt that what he said was right, so he decided to call himself the beggar commander, and led his men to call themselves the beggar army. They formally raised the flag of rebellion and broke with the Chengdu court.
From November of the sixth year of Hongwu to March of the seventh year of Hongwu, more than a dozen rebel armies emerged across Sichuan and Shu. The main participants were farmers who could not survive.
Wang Shun's beggar army in Zizhou is not the largest one. Wang Shun only has more than 2,000 soldiers fighting with him. The largest one is Ba Shu, a copper miner from Tongshan County, Tongchuan Prefecture. General Liu Zhuang.
He directly called on the copper miners to rebel. Copper miners, their families and surrounding farmers were mobilized by him. In just over a month, about 100,000 people followed him to rebel against the Chengdu court. There were many people under his command. There are nearly ten thousand soldiers, so the scale is huge.
After killing all the officials and landlord Lao Cai in Tongshan County, Liu Zhuang marched towards the capital of Tongchuan Prefecture, which was a great deterrent.
Faced with such a terrifying situation, the governor of Tongchuan looked at the three melons and two dates beside him and knew that he was no match at all, so he immediately lost the courage to resist, abandoned the city, and ran away with his cronies and family members, without fighting. .
His behavior is by no means an exception.
Faced with such a situation, the weakness of the local officials in Sichuan and Sichuan was fully exposed.
When the people didn't dare to resist, they were extremely ferocious and looked like man-eating beasts with snarling teeth and claws. But once the people united to violently resist, they revealed their true weakness. It turned out that the snarling fangs and claws were just an act. of.
The sharp teeth and claws turned out to be fakes, and they would break if beaten.
So what are you afraid of?
In February and March of the seventh year of Hongwu, a large number of uprising troops swept across Sichuan and Shu.
Although various local governments also mobilized armed teams to carry out resistance, there were only a few people. However, the peasant rebel armies that had sprung up in various places were tens of thousands of people and stormed the county seat in one go. The county seat could not be defended at all.
The county magistrate was killed, the wealthy and powerful were picked out and beaten to death, and then the sky lanterns were lit.
Across the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, peasant uprisings broke out in more than a dozen state capitals one after another, and the farmers' anger finally broke out uncontrollably.
At the same time, on March 11th of the seventh year of Hongwu, Xu Tong, who had collected intelligence from various places, held a meeting of the Sichuan-Sichuan branch and clearly announced at the meeting that the time for the uprising had come.
This time is not a simple resistance by the unemployed, but a resistance by farmers who occupy the majority of the population in Sichuan and Sichuan. It is a resistance with a broad social basis.
The Chengdu court has successfully forced the peasants to rebel. If they don't rebel now, then when will they?
"According to accurate information, peasant uprising armies of varying sizes have appeared in thirteen state capitals in Sichuan and Sichuan. The small ones number more than 10,000 people, and the large ones number more than 100,000 people. Whether they are landless refugees or landless people who have been brutally exploited and oppressed, The farmers have stood up and started to resist.
This time is a real peasant uprising, a peasant uprising with a broad social base. It is a great opportunity for us to take advantage of the trend. I suggest that we immediately organize our own uprising army in Linjiang County and join this Sichuan-Sichuan uprising. In the midst of a peasant uprising! "
Xu Tong's suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone in the congregation.
