The pastoral concubine of space

Chapter 815 Bandit Army

Although the Lin family was very worried that the insurgents would misbehave and would take advantage of the fire to rob ordinary people like them, what should come would always come, and the atmosphere in Xiaohe Town became uneasy after a while. Pedestrians on the street came and went in a hurry. Some people would stop for a while to talk and laugh, but now they just nodded hurriedly or even passed by as if they didn't see it.

More and more people began to go to the grain shop to buy rice and stockpile food. They were afraid that once the war came, they would be hungry, so they kept the food they bought as secret as possible to ensure that even if the rebels really wanted to requisition them They couldn't find or find enough food, and they could still leave the rations for them to feed themselves.

Feng Yunxiu and Xiao Yunchu had been fasting for a long time, but in order not to stand out too much, they followed the example of others and hoarded a batch of grain and put it in the warehouse of the house.

In this way, another month later, according to the news from the outside world, the rebel army from the west had arrived in Fucheng, a county town away from them, and more and more details about the rebel army were known to the townspeople.

The rebel army in the west is not just a group of people, but two groups of rebel troops led by different people. One group is called Liu Jiajun, also called Bandit Army, and the leader is Liu Bucheng. It is said that he is a very ordinary villager, because the local government He kept oppressing the villagers, and finally became a bandit with a few gangsters in the village. He usually robbed the government or wealthy businessmen. Later, the government sent troops to suppress the bandits several times. He used his strength to overthrow the county government office, smashed the government government office, and directly launched an uprising to overthrow the royal family of Xiaowan Kingdom.

After a few months of hard work, the number of Liu Bucheng's bandit army has reached 8000. Because he robbed a small barracks in the local area, he got a lot of weapons and the equipment is not bad. However, fighting not only needs weapons, but also food and grass. ah.

Every time the bandit army went to a place, they would ask the local rich and wealthy gentry to subsidize their food and grass. It sounds good to call it subsidy, but it sounds bad to say that they are intimidating and robbing. It is not once or twice that the family property is snapped up after being killed.

Compared with the imperial court, Liu Jiajun, a bandit uprising army, did not have much better reputation in the west. Basically, there was no place where they passed that could get a good result. Ordinary people did not have much food to provide, and Many families with beautiful daughters want to vent their desire to supply the insurgents. The most annoying thing is that the other party can confidently say that they are desperately trying to win more benefits for the poor people. , Sending their daughter to relieve them, what's wrong as a thank you gift?
The people in Xiaohe Town were angry and afraid when they heard about the evil deeds of the bandit army. Those who had beautiful daughters or granddaughters at home were afraid that the bandit army would spoil their children after they passed by, so they tried every means to send them away. I went to a relative's house farther away to take refuge. The family has a little money, so I packed my bags and prepared to move.

However, not all the rebels were as bad as bandits. Another group of rebels named Yao Jiajun was very popular among the people. It is said that the leader of Yao Jiajun, Yao Fengming, was from a family of benevolent merchants. However, Yao Fengming, who really wanted the people out of suffering, did not act unscrupulously like the bandit army, and exploited the people just like the court under the guise of a name.

As a family of benevolent merchants, the Yao family does not claim to be rich, but it is not difficult to provide funds for the initial uprising. What's more, the Yao family is originally a grain merchant, and there is no shortage of grain and grass. , On the contrary, when they met the common people who were bullied by the bandit army and couldn't live longer, they would help them, gained an excellent reputation, and the team continued to grow.

Compared with the bandit army, which only has 8000 people so far, the Yao family army has almost 2 people, and there are many common people who welcome them wherever they go, and the treatment is very different from that of the bandit army.

When the townspeople of Xiaohe Town were living in panic, they also eagerly hoped that Yao's army would come to the town first, and provide them with shelter when the bandit army came, so as not to let the town suffer too much persecution, but soon It's a pity that people's wishes failed, and the bandit army was the first to arrive in Xiaohe Town.

The news of the arrival of the bandit army completely panicked the people in Xiaohe Town. No one dared to walk around on the street, and all the shops were closed. If the town didn’t have a city gate, the mayor would have wished to turn Xiaohe Town into a city. A fully enclosed fortress that cannot be entered or exited, preventing the bandit army from entering and harming them.

Feng Yunxiu and Xiao Yunchu didn't feel any sense of urgency at all, they were still enjoying themselves in the yard, exercising their muscles and bones, picking a fruit to make a jam, reading books on the customs of Xiaowan Country, and their days were peaceful It was the same before getting up, oh, if there is any difference, probably the people of the Lin family didn't dare to let the great-grandchildren run away, so it was rare for them to live in a world of two.

After learning about the bandit army's arrival, Xiao Yunchu had a face full of jokes, "Although the residential area we live in is not the wealthiest family in the town, it is also a well-to-do family. I guess it will take a few days to wait until the richest people in the town live in it. Man, it's our turn."

Feng Yunxiu casually waved a mortal sword that he got specially after he entered the mortal world. Even if he didn't use any spiritual energy, he swung the sword casually, it still made a loud piercing sound, and the walls were cracked by the sword energy. Create a deep sword mark.

"If they are not afraid of death, they can just come." Feng Yunxiu's tone was light, but a gleam of coldness inadvertently leaked from his eyes.

They just came to experience the ups and downs of the mortal world, but it didn't mean that they would be bullied by some people who didn't know the so-called. As long as the bandit army dared to attack them, he would dare to make those mobs regret coming to Xiaohe Town to die.

On the other side, the bandit army that has already domineeringly occupied the mayor's house and the houses of the rich people around them, and got all the valuables and hoarded food inside, is gathering in the yard to eat the mayor's wife and the rich people's house. At the banquet prepared by the servants, beside them sat a few young ladies and girls with ugly smiles on their faces.

Some of these people are beautiful servant girls from rich parents, and some are the daughters-in-law of the master's family. Liu Bucheng doesn't care whether they are married or not, as long as they are good-looking, they will snatch them away. Come to serve yourself, regardless of whether they are happy or not.

While nephrite is warm and fragrant, he also called the pale mayor and asked him: "Is there any other family in your town who has a lot of money? Tell me honestly, as long as I have enough food and grass for the army, my lord I won’t embarrass you too much in this small broken town.”

The mayor glanced at Liu Bucheng's pretty daughter-in-law who was molested by Liu Bucheng in public regardless of the public, and saw her face full of shame, indignation and despair. home temporarily.

After hearing Liu Bucheng's question, he lowered his head respectfully while his heart skipped a beat.
