Chapter 67 Have to Fight
(It's difficult to be a husband, but it's even harder to be a father! My wife just got out of the hospital, but my son was hospitalized again because of a severe respiratory infection! It's hard! It's hard to calm down! My son is bigger than the sky! I have to stay with him in the hospital for a few days. Fortunately, there are still some manuscripts, otherwise I will definitely update it this time! Here is the manuscript, and the outbreak is estimated to be out for the time being! I'm sorry, brothers!)
"What kind of thing? Obviously, I'm aiming very accurately, but why do I still deflect?" Xiao Tianjian muttered.
Yan Chongxi followed him, with a slightly mocking look on his face. He said to Xiao Tianjian, "I don't know anything about the palm plate. This thing is really not easy to use. It's only more than 30 steps, so it's difficult to hit people, but the palm plate is still rubbing the edge of the tree, which is already good! If you want to hit a person fifty steps away, it can only be regarded as a bad person's life! Seventy steps away, let alone think about it! It's almost enough to scare people!
Besides, the power of this thing is limited. It's okay within fifty steps. Thirty steps can break the armor, fifty steps can defeat the person who is not armored, and seventy steps want to kill people, unless the person is bare! You have to hit the point!"
After listening to Yan Chongxi's words, Xiao Tianjian is really discouraged by the power of the musket in this era. This thing really doesn't have much advantage over bows and arrows. It may not be as good as a skilled archer! At least the archer can control the accuracy of the arrows, but this thing depends on luck! The shooter still has to risk the explosion and accidentally kills himself! No wonder Yan Chongxi doesn't like this thing so much. It's really rubbish!
"That's all! It's better than nothing! Let's make do with it first! The main reason is that the quality of these guys is too poor. If it is made by Seiko, it should be much more powerful! You can't say that the musket doesn't work just because of these garbage! In the future, I will find a way to make some powerful things to open your eyes! Go and pick out the new people who can use this thing and start working later!" Xiao Tianjian had no choice but to throw the gun to Yan Chongxi and said to him.
If there is no fire with Wang Tianlong this time, Xiao Tianjian can fight against Fan Jiabao. After all, he still has a little grain, which is enough for his servants to deal with for a period of time!
But now, he has to stay here and take the risk to continue to attack Fanjiabao. For nothing else, it's just because the number of people he wants to feed now has suddenly increased by nearly 200, which is far more than his ability to store grain. He must immediately obtain a considerable amount of grain to support it. Otherwise, so many people will be hungry. It's impossible to follow him. This is how the world is. If you have money and food, someone will follow you. If you have no money and no food, hum! Sorry, few people will be hungry with you!
So since the merger with Wang Tianlonghuo in the morning, Xiao Tianjian has been thinking about whether to fight or not. After he subdued Wang Tianlong's so many men and added dozens of Fanjiabao tenants, he made up his mind to continue fighting.
But how to play? Xiao Tianjian has no better way at present. He can only learn Wang Tianlong's method first and think about it while playing. But first of all, what he has to solve is still the problem of people's hearts. Now that there are so many people under him, most of them have just surrendered to him. It is hard to guarantee that people's hearts will fluctuate. The first thing to solve is to encourage these people first. Just come.
After eating, everyone was gathered by Xiao Tianjian again. Because they had just merged and had not been integrated with each other, Xiao Tianjian could only separate the new and old people. Seven people who could use muskets were selected, and several archers were also selected. When they came out, a group was formed separately, and the remaining new members were uniformly formed into a brigade and handed over to Yan Chongxi's temporary command.
More than 200 people began to gather outside Fanjiabao again, which made the atmosphere tense again.
"Brothers! Yesterday's thing is over! There is no need to mention kindness and resentment! But now you are my brothers! I want to ask you, what are we doing here? Do you still remember?" Xiao Tianjian stood on a mound in front of the team and asked loudly to everyone below.
"Come and fight Zhuangzi..." The people below immediately answered loudly.
"Good! Just don't forget about it! Let me ask you again! Why can these old money ride our heads? Why do we have to suffer from poverty and starvation, but each of them is full of fat? Why do we work hard all year round and can't even eat? These officials and landlords are old money, but they are guarding a lot of food and comfortable? Why do we starve to death, but they don't care about us? Xiao Tianjian stood on the mound and continued to ask the people below loudly.
This time, everyone looked at each other and couldn't figure it out! Because the vast majority of them have been born in poor families since childhood and have lived like this since childhood. Few people have thought about these problems at all. Many people even think that their lives are not good, and they are born poor, and they deserve to suffer! The reason why I'm doing this now is that I can't live anymore, so I desperately beg for food! Suddenly, Xiao Tianjian asked them these questions, and they really didn't know how to answer them.
Xiao Tianjian glanced at these men and knew that they could not answer, so he continued to say loudly, "You definitely can't answer!" All right! Now I'll tell you why! Just because of this bastard world and this damn system! Officials and the rich can not pay food, but all the taxes in the court have to be borne by us poor people, so we are getting poorer and poorer! You can't blame others. You can only blame the stupidity of this damn court and officials! They don't care about us at all! That's why we have to do this!
Since this world has forced us to do this, we can only ask for a way to live from these damn rich and old rich people! The imperial court and these rich people don't pity us, so we can't pity them! Our life can only be in our own hands. In order to survive, we can only rob his mother! Only by robbing these immoral local tyrants can we survive! Do you understand?
Who does this world depend on? Only by relying on our own hands to fight and grab can we live! Otherwise, even if you are hungry at the door of these rich people, no one will pity you! Do you understand?"
Xiao Tianjian stood on the mound, constantly waved one hand, and almost did not rest. He held his breath and said such a long paragraph at once! When he stopped, even he admired his speech level. I didn't expect him to be able to speak so now. Compared with the past, his eloquence seems to have improved a lot!
For these people, he can only explain it to them in as easy-to-understand words as possible, which is also what he can think of at the moment. Although he knows a lot about the principles of the revolution, it is obviously impossible to instill in these mud-legs for a while, so he Speaking of simple things, that is, to encourage these people to sacrifice their lives to fight with him first, so that they can understand that their robbery has a high-sounding reason!
These words are easy to understand. After listening to it, the people below thought that it was really the case. Most of the good land in the world were occupied by these officials and local tyrants and bad gentry. The people could only plant some thin land, which is not to mention that. These local tyrants and bad gentry still want to do their best not to pay taxes and make all kinds of harsh donations. Miscellaneous taxes are basically on the heads of these ordinary people. This year, growing some grain is not enough to pay all kinds of messy taxes to the government. Not to mention the tenants. If they want to rent the land of these local tyrants and evil gentry, the taxes will be heavier, and the whole family will not be able to eat a few full meals all year round.
But they have also seen that the food hoarded in these old rich people's homes is enough for them to eat for many years. In the present, in the year of disaster, these old rich people cover the food tighter one by one and take it out to help the disaster victims at all. The price of food is getting higher and higher by them, and many people starve to death.
They are all people who have gone through these things. As long as someone gives them a gentle touch, they will naturally understand. After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, they can't help thinking about it, the more angry they become, and they all began to cheer up.
It was still Xiao Tianjian's brothers, who immediately raised their weapons in their hands one by one and shouted, "I understand! Take the bitch! ..." The rest of the people shouted with these people as soon as they heard it. More than 200 people shouted together. The momentum was really not small. They gathered together, like thunder, rolling towards the distance of the sky.
This roar naturally spread to Fan Jiabao, which surprised the Fan family and turned pale.
Fan Laocai trembled and quickly shouted to Zhuang Ding, "Listen! Listen, is there any king's law? Today, my surname is Fan. Our Fan family expects you to keep this castle. As long as you keep our village, my surname is Fan will never treat you badly! And you have also seen that if these poles are poured in, no one can please anyone! I'm here for you to eat and drink. If our Fan family is broken, where can you go? If they dare to fight, you beat me hard, beat their dog brains out, and kill one and I will be rewarded with two taels of silver. Even if you kill them, even if my surname is Fan, I will take out silver to reward you! Also, kill the pig quickly and let these brothers be full. I'm counting on you for everything!"
Fan Laocai is really afraid. He also sees that this matter will obviously not be good. If he doesn't take out some benefits to motivate these Zhuang Ding, I'm afraid he won't be able to pass this! Although this money is heartbreaking, it is much better than Zhuangzi being broken by a pole and killing their whole family! So he didn't care about being stingy at this moment. He announced in public that as long as he killed a pole, he would be rewarded with two taels of silver and wanted to encourage these Zhuangding to work for him.
When Fan Laocai said this, Zhuang Ding is really energetic. It's not easy to earn two taels of silver. Usually, they can't get two taels of silver in a few months. Fan Laocai is also a mean person. Although he usually takes care of rice, what he gives them is very ordinary, at most is coarse grain. It's half full. It's basically impossible to eat better. Now Fan Laocai promised to take out the money to reward and kill the enemy, and kill pigs to reward them, which made them really excited. They quickly thanked Fan Laocai and said that Master Fan was benevolence!
Only the strong man surnamed Luo looked at Fan Laocai sideways, with a trace of contempt on his face, and he cursed secretly, "Old boy, are you afraid now? You are willing to spend money! I told you a long time ago that I asked you to move the tenants outside to the village, but you didn't listen to me. I asked you to take out more food, let these Zhuang Ding eat well, and practice more every day. You can't bear to bear it. Now you know that you are in a hurry? I'm afraid it's too late!"
