Soon, Han Xi led a group of people to find the Kang family grain store. The store was very large. Seeing this grain store reminded him of the Kang family grain store in Pingyang Mansion.
From the looks of it, this grain shop belongs to the Kang family of Pingyang Prefecture.
In this way, Han Xi led hundreds of people into the grain store.
But as soon as he entered the grain store, he was chased away by the waiter: "Go, you bunch of beggars, what are you doing here?"
The waiter's face was full of disgust, and the soldiers who came behind Han Xi lowered their heads. Their slovenly appearance at this time was indeed no different from beggars.
This was caused by the lack of corrections and food replenishment during the continuous battle.
Han Xi glanced at the waiter in the shop who was wearing a decent dress, then looked at the soldier behind him, and immediately kicked him.
The waiter was kicked away and several bags of food were knocked over his body.
"Things that look like humans and dogs." Han Xi snorted coldly.
The movement here quickly attracted a crowd. At this time, the shopkeeper also came over. When he saw a group of soldiers making trouble, his face suddenly turned cold: "Do you know where this is? How dare you make trouble here?"
Glancing at the shopkeeper, Han Xi also smiled, and then said: "Isn't this a grain store? Could it be the slave stronghold?"
Han Xi's words startled the shopkeeper, and then he winked at the waiter beside him. The waiter understood and ran out immediately.
"Stop slandering me and leave now, otherwise you will be in trouble later." The shopkeeper pointed at Han Xi and said.
Well?
Han Xi saw the shopkeeper looking like this and the people around him pointing fingers at the officers and soldiers. It seemed that the food was not easy to buy today.
"I suspect that you are having an affair with a slave and leaking secrets to a slave. Seal this grain store for me and move all the food away. The food inside contains evidence of an affair with a slave." Han Xi shouted directly.
After hearing this, the storekeeper of the grain shop was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. He looked at Han Xi with contempt and said, "I'll move this grain for you. Do you dare to move it?"
Seeing that the shopkeeper was so arrogant, Han Xi was stunned for a moment, then looked at the soldiers around him and shouted: "What are you still standing there for? Everyone else has been asked to move, why don't you move quickly?"
this?
A Mr. Qian stepped forward and whispered: "Mr. Han Qian, there is a figure from the Ministry of War behind this grain store. It is not appropriate to offend."
The shopkeeper stood by with his nostrils raised in the sky, looking like he was watching how Han Xi would end up.
Han Xi looked at the officers and soldiers who were following him with some contempt: "You are like this and still want to follow us to build slaves? Go and go, you have to go back there."
Mr. Qian, who kindly reminded him, turned red when Han Xi said it.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the store, and the waiter who had just left the store led hundreds of people towards this direction.
"Sorry, we are here from the patrol camp of the capital." Mr. Qian stepped forward and said.
Hundreds of people in the patrol camp were neatly dressed, giving people a majestic feeling from a distance. When the leader, Du Si, arrived, he shouted: "Are you, defeated losers, making trouble here? Arrest them all." "
Following Du Si's order, hundreds of people from the patrol camp gathered around.
"Pa~"
With the sound of a gunshot, hundreds of people in the patrol camp froze.
I saw Du Si being shot and knocked down.
"Hum, you bitch, when I was out killing the slaves, you were probably sleeping with a woman in your bed!" Han Xi cursed.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and a group of cavalry was seen approaching quickly in the distance.
In just a moment, thousands of cavalrymen surrounded the store tightly.
Seeing the cavalry coming, Han Xi said loudly: "Evacuate this store and take back the shopkeeper. If anyone dares to obstruct it, he will be treated as a spy and killed."
When the people in the patrol camp saw Du Si being beaten to death, and there were so many cavalry around them, they immediately withered and fled, without the arrogance they had just now.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground. He didn't expect to meet a bold guy today.
The officers and soldiers who followed were also a little at a loss.
At this time, the cavalry who came over had already followed Han Xi's orders and started carrying food.
The people who were hiding far away looked at this scene with surprised faces.
I don’t know where this murderer came from, and he actually dared to kill even people in the patrol camp.
At this time, an imperial soldier came over and reported: "There is too much food in the store, and we may not be able to carry it all."
Han Xi was surprised after hearing this, and then walked to the street and shouted: "Those who come to carry food will be rewarded with one bucket afterward. Those who carry the grain will be rewarded with two buckets."
Han Xi shouted, and the people around him suddenly became commotion.
Just like that, thousands of people came to help carry the food. In less than half an hour, all the food in the Kang family's food store was carried back to the camp.
After counting, there was still a lot of food, as much as tens of thousands of stones, enough to consume the army for half a year.
The incident of Han Xi killing people and robbing food quickly spread to the palace.
This surprised Chongzhen and the cabinet ministers who were discussing the matter.
The Minister of Rites, Zhou Yanru, who was speechless by Han Xi yesterday, came out and said: "Your Majesty, at this time, the murderer should be arrested and killed quickly to appease the people and at the same time deter the rebellious border troops."
At this time, another cabinet minister wearing a red robe stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this. This is the time to employ people. I'm afraid doing this will chill the hearts of the soldiers. They should be allowed to serve for their crimes and wait for the establishment of the army." I'll make a decision after I retreat."
Chongzhen frowned, he didn't expect this frontier army to be so bold.
While Chongzhen was deep in thought, several cabinet ministers started to quarrel. On one side, they demanded severe punishment, while on the other side, they said that it was the right time to employ people, so they should be given a lighter sentence.
Chongzhen felt a little irritated by the noise, and finally said: "Arrest the person first and then talk!"
Seeing Chongzhen speak, all the cabinet ministers fell silent.
Finally, the arrest order was assigned to Jin Yiwei.
A group of Jin Yiwei wearing Feiyu uniforms set out one after another and headed towards the military camp.
Fearing that people in the military camp would cause trouble, a large number of Jin Yiwei were dispatched this time, and the commotion was very loud.
the other side.
Han Xi, who had killed someone, knew that King Qin's army might not be able to act anymore. So as soon as he returned to the military camp, he began to summon soldiers. Prepare to plunder the capital.
Han Xi knew that Li Zicheng would collect 20 to 30 million taels of silver in the city in the future. Such a large amount of silver would be enough for him to summon an army of one million people. Then he has nothing to fear.
The more he thought about it, the more motivated Han Xi became. He upgraded the officers of the imperial soldiers a little faster.
At this time, Han Xi had organized 20,000 imperial soldiers, and including the soldiers in the camp, there were 23,000.
It is not easy to defeat these incompetent officers and soldiers in the city.
"Brother Xi, what's wrong, a group of people calling themselves Jin Yiwei broke in and said they wanted to catch the person who committed the murder today." A Niu hurriedly broke into the camp, but was blocked outside.
Are you coming? Han Xi couldn't help but get a little excited.
