It feels really good to receive monthly money.
Wrap the money in a handkerchief, hold it in your heart, and go back to the den. Of course, you should cover the newly earned money. No matter how chaotic the outside world is, turn a deaf ear to it. When you get back to the den, you will sleep on the silver and gold.
The world outside is still so chaotic. Li Tang is crumbling and vassal kings are everywhere. What's interesting is that those vassal kings have begun to fight. Some have greatly increased in strength, and more have been annexed by some so-called rebels.
Again, don’t think that having the name of a rebel is a good thing.
Ordinary people don't have the brains to lead troops to conquer cities and conquer territories. They are just manipulated by some powerful clans and clans. For example, a certain hero struggled to survive from a poor family when he was young. Later, he rebelled against the corrupt imperial court and expanded from the original dozens of people. There were tens of thousands of people and some famous people came to join him because of his reputation.
whispering sound
It's funny, if the family is really poor and struggling to survive, those people who have read military books and know how to plan will come to join them.
It's okay for a wealthy family to deceive ignorant people, but a smarter person will understand the trick once they think about it.
They just want to take advantage of the troubled times to gain benefits. What they say about serving the people is pure nonsense. They have fought for the people for several years and saved ten or two. This is the so-called serving the people of the world.
History is written by the victors, and the content can be imagined.
There was great tension in the city. It was rumored that a group of rebels had arrived from Hedong outside the city and were preparing to cross the river to attack the city.
Bai Yu was very angry because there were too many people messing around on the river and he couldn't catch any fish. He thought about it and gave up. He ate fish every day and now he could smell a fishy smell when he opened his mouth. It didn't matter if he ate anything else.
Returning to the small courtyard, making a pot of tea to supplement vitamins, the small wooden door separates two worlds.
Men were noisily recruited outside the city to defend the city, and they were busy preparing to resist the so-called rebels outside the city. People living in this era knew very well who those people were. Panic spread and the security in the city declined.
“Looks like we’re moving again”
He sighed helplessly.
Someone outside the door took advantage of the chaos to act violently, robbing and hurting people in the street. Bai Yu didn't bother to evaluate what he did. There was no need, because the IQ of this kind of person was already at an extremely low level.
A fierce strongman rushed to the door of the store with an iron knife and chopped the wooden door into pieces.
Under the flower tree, Bai Yu stretched out his index finger and dipped a drop of tea into it. He bent his finger and flicked the water droplet away. The small water droplets were shaped into fine needles during the high-speed flight.
The thin needle passed through the crack in the door and disappeared from the center of the vicious man's brow just before the machete was about to fall.
The fierce man fell backwards, and the iron knife clattered to the ground. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't even see the small blood spot on the center of his eyebrow. Water dissolves in blood, so it is probably the most advanced hidden weapon.
The tea enters the throat, bringing a slight fragrance to the lips and teeth.
afternoon.
When I arrived at the brothel, I found that the brothel was also in chaos, and the rebels outside the city were about to attack the city. At this last moment, someone finally thought of escaping earlier, and fled far away until the situation calmed down before coming back. It was just a case of urgent medical treatment.
The brothel was in a mess. Some people nailed the windows with wooden boards and moved tables, chairs and benches to block the door. Some people moved food. Fortunately, there was a pond and well in the backyard so they didn't need to move water.
I can't be happy now that my job is gone.
Wandering back to the den, I killed a few thugs who took advantage of the situation and committed crimes.
In the distance, from the direction of the city wall, there were overwhelming shouts of killing and screams. It was so noisy that there was no peace. It must be a rebel army attacking the city. Thick smoke billowed into the air, covering the small town like black mist.
A certain snake started to do nothing
It is impossible for the rebel army to retreat and attack elsewhere. Only this nearby city has enough food and grass for them to eat. The remote towns and villages cannot feed so many people. The rebel army has no logistics and can only attack one place and eat one, and then eat all the food. Coerce the people in the city who are out of food to eat at the next house.
Therefore, the rebel army must break through the small town, eat it all, and rob it all. There are food, wine, and beauties in the city.
As a result, a particularly strange scene appeared.
Stones were flying at the city wall, arrows were covering the sky, and blood and stumps were everywhere. They were roaring and fighting. A guy under a flower tree in a small courtyard in the city was making a bamboo umbrella stand by himself, humming a song he had learned somewhere. Looking at the black smoke but not listening to the fighting, to put it nicely is called the heart as still as water, and to put it worse is called being indifferent.
Attacking the city is difficult and requires constant attrition of ten times the number of troops to break the city.
The leader of the rebel army, who claimed to serve the poor people of Li, didn't care how many people died. The worst he could do was break the city and hijack the men of the small town to form another large army.
The first day ended in chaos. Many people hung up paper flags and cried endlessly in the night.
On the second and third days, they fought desperately for several consecutive days.
The price of food in the city has increased, and those with wells at home have become a treasure. One well can feed countless people, and there are even armed fights over the wells. The rich and powerful drink water, but ordinary people drink water from the pond, and the taste is a little better to survive. That’s it.
The nobles finally tasted the bitter consequences. Those rebels were all desperate people who had been exploited and oppressed too hard. Of course, except for the leader, the leader could only take advantage of the situation and could not take full control. In the troubled times, people's hearts changed and they rushed into the city to rob. The biggest wish of every rebel is to win a big household.
It is estimated that the happiest people in the city are those mentally ill people who believe in evil gods. They all swear that they will face heavenly punishment and that only by believing in the so-called true God can they be freed. They have become very popular for a while.
In the small courtyard, a certain snake looked up at the fate of the sky above the small town. It was gloomy and bloody.
"The weather is a little weird. The bad luck is gathering in the city. Could it be that the Xiaoqiang is causing trouble?"
Bai Yu's fortune-telling ability is quite accurate.
One night at night, the nobles who had surrendered to the rebels in the city and hoped to keep their family property secretly opened the city gate, and tens of thousands of hungry rebels rushed into the small town with gleaming eyes.
The fire lit up the small town, and there was fire everywhere, especially several city gate towers turned into huge torches.
In this ancient era, the whole city can be illuminated at night except during the New Year and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, when the city is broken. There are people and dead people everywhere. The smell of blood is unpleasant and pungent. Some people actually say that the smell of blood is delicious. , that's just compared to ferocious beasts, the smell of rust is uncomfortable for anyone who smells it.
At the entrance of a large house, a man in rich clothing and a housekeeper looked at the fierce rebels in panic.
"These heroes are led by my family to open the city gate."
The man in fine clothes and the housekeeper died tragically, and the murderous man with a knife spat.
"I can't understand what they are saying. Brothers are robbing money and women. The rich lady belongs to me, hahaha."
The luxurious compound was filled with men's dying cries and women's cries.
In the distance, a group of more than a hundred soldiers were hacking at the doors and windows of the brothel. The screams and cries of the women inside deeply stimulated the men under the firelight in the dark night. They seemed to be full of energy while hacking, but they did not dare to set fire for fear of burning the people inside. Thousands of charming young men and enchanting girls.
"Hahaha, beauty, don't worry, my brother is coming soon."
The sawdust was flying and swaying, and the girls in the brothel were scared. They were afraid that they would be tortured to death by the lunatics outside the door. Even if they didn't die, there would be no good results. After long discussions, everyone secretly left the brothel under the leadership of a certain spirited young man. Escape through the side door and into the alley. Chapter content is being restored, please visit again later.
