night.

Outside Fugu County, on the river beach where the victims were resettled, several piles of bonfires were burning.

A strong man was sitting in front of the fire from a long distance away, staring at the flames intently, as if he was thinking about something, the intermittent fire light shone on the strong man's face, it could be seen that the strong man was capable.

"Sixth brother, I think Mr. Shi's leather rafts are almost sun-dried. In a few days, we will be able to go down to Henan on these leather rafts. In a short time, we will be able to reach Dongting Lake. Start a new life." Yang Qi sat next to his sixth brother, happily talking to his sixth brother.

"Yes! Sixth brother, I think the government's relief is quite effective this time. In such a catastrophe year, you can still eat mutton. I haven't heard of it for many years. Now this sheepskin raft is It's almost ready to dry, and in a few days, you will be able to escape from this sea of ​​suffering..." Another person also said by the side of the fire.

This kind of fire is used for lighting at night, and many of them are lit outside the city of Fugu County.A group of people, sitting far away in front of the fire, were Yang Liu and some of his brothers, some old guys. They stayed in Fugu County for some days, watching the sheepskin tire slowly Dry it in the sun, knowing that the time to stay in Fugu County is running out.

Seeing that the leader Yang Liu was silent and silent, some people explained: "Brother Liu, I think that the matter will not be pursued by the government. It has been so long and there is no news. I am afraid that this matter will just pass away. The imperial court pretended not to know, so we don’t need to be afraid. The Holy Son of Heaven has moved millions of immigrants, how many of us are there? With the land to plant, who would rebel? Besides, it hasn’t been done yet, right? Six Brother, I think, after two days, let's go. I'm afraid people will suspect me if I stay here in Fugu County. I always use the excuse of letting others go first. I'm afraid Mr. Shi will be suspicious... "

One of Yang Liu's old subordinates persuaded them that they were the group who were going to raise the flag to rebel. However, at the last moment, the rebellion did not start. The officers and soldiers got the news in advance and closed the city gate. This rebellion, which had no hope of success in the first place, was even closer to no hope of success.Therefore, under the leadership of Yang Liu, this group of people gave up the rebellion at the last moment and went to the immigration point along the river. However, they were also afraid in their hearts. I have been lingering for a long time, just to see how the court treats them and see if the government will pursue that matter. If the investigation is serious, these people can still resist when they get together. The river drifted down, and once it dispersed, it was like meat on the chopping board, and there was no room for resistance.However, it is not an option to stay together like this and stay in Fugu County. The rafts made by Shi Kefa are almost finished. If you don't go, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of others, so whether to go or not to go has become a difficult problem for Yang Liu.

Yang Liu threw a branch into the fire with no expression on his face. The dead branch flew in the air for a while before it fell onto the fire and started to burn.The flames became brighter.

"Sixth brother, how about I quietly puncture those tires at night, so that we don't have to go..." A teenage boy said.

"Shut up!! Da Mao, don't talk nonsense. The sheepskin raft is a life-saving tool for the victims. If the sheepskin tire is punctured, when Mr. Shi loses the raft to transport the victims, how many victims will starve to death? Do you know that you are committing crimes? We don’t do things that are against the law of nature, we will be struck by lightning, and we will go to hell..." Yang Liu lowered his voice as much as possible, and severely reprimanded the young man who came up with such a bad idea just now.

The hairy boy named Da Mao quickly lowered his head.

Yang Liu seemed to be thinking about something, and said: "Old fellows, brothers, I, Yang Liu, have thought a lot these days and figured it out. Now, when we meet a holy emperor who comes out once in a thousand years, we will make him Therefore, I, Yang Liu, advise everyone that as long as the Holy Son of Heaven is alive, the word "rebellion" will not be mentioned again... Sigh..." Yang Liu said a few words and sighed Take a breath.

Everyone heard Yang Liu's words, and everyone went into their hearts. If it hadn't been for the birth of a holy emperor in Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi would have been surrounded by wars. Judging by the immigrant's posture, it would be impossible to rebel. There are no disaster victims in a catastrophic year to coerce. It is really a joke to talk about rebellion. Even if you raise the banner of rebellion, the government may not treat you as a rebel. Thieves, I have no time to care about you. Years pass by. After a few years, wives, daughters-in-law, sons and daughters have made a lot of them, and there is no thought of rebelling and becoming king.

Seeing what his sixth brother said, Yang Qi said, "Then sixth brother, let's emigrate with peace of mind. When we arrive at Dongting Lake, we will open up several hundred acres of land for him, and we will harvest two or several thousand shi of grain for him every year. If you can't finish eating, you can have white rice every day, isn't it a good day?"

Yang Liu continued to throw a dead branch into the fire, the dead branch flew a certain distance in the air, fell into the fire, and burned.

"Hey... To be honest, listening to that song these days has brought my mind back to Yang Liu. Your brother and I originally planned to do the same, to be a good citizen with peace of mind, to plant a few acres of land, and manage it every year. The food, the wife and the children are on the kang, and I just passed it with peace of mind, but the song these two days, alas...'If the heart is there, the dream is there!' I, Yang Liu, am really not willing to be so mediocre. Live a lifetime!" Yang Liu finally uttered the reason for his hesitation.

"Brother Six, do you want to?"

"Brother Six, what do you plan to do?"

"Sixth brother, don't you want to join the army again?"

"Sixth brother, what do you say, what should we do, we will follow you..."

These brothers and subordinates of Yang Liu immediately shouted and supported Yang Liu's decision.

"Old fellows, brothers, please be quiet and listen to me, Yang Liu." Yang Liu quickly suppressed it. Apart from the sound of the waves of the Yellow River, it was actually very quiet at night. people pay attention.

Everyone quieted down and listened to what Yang Liu had to say.

"I, Yang Liu, thought this way. I took refuge in the official army again, and I didn't think about it for the time being. Before I saw that the official army was worth taking refuge in, I didn't even think about this road. Everyone knows what happened back then... Dog officer Don't treat us as human beings...Lao Qi will take everyone to continue to immigrate, and go to the south to settle down. It's good to get rid of this sea of ​​suffering...You guys have taken root, and we can feel at ease. I, Yang Liu, was originally an official Jun, I was born to play with knives and guns, and I, Yang Liu, would not be reconciled to living a mediocre life. Therefore, I wanted to go outside the customs and try my luck in Liaodong. I heard from my former colleagues that now, His Majesty is Outside the customs, we recruit warriors who dare to go to Donglu's lair to hunt and kill heads. Regardless of men, women, young or old, soldiers or civilians, as long as they can get the heads of Donglu, they can get high rewards and even divide the land. Dividing the land, or even changing the official position is also possible, I think, with my Yang Liu's martial arts skills, I can get some Donglu heads out of the cold, which will come in handy, and it will not be in vain for so many years..."

As soon as Yang Liu's words came out, the people around him immediately split into two sides, one side was clamoring to follow Yang Qi to headhunt, and some remained silent.

"I, Yang Liu, welcome anyone who is willing to go headhunting with me. However, there should not be too many people. About a dozen or so people are enough. For the rest, follow Lao Qi to immigrate. Take good care of our wives and children, and settle down in the south." Xiagen, when we get rich and promoted in the future, we will have a place to stay... and a place where we can honor our ancestors..." Yang Liu opened up his plan, and his mood became much brighter, with a smile on his face. Said with a smile.

"Brother Six..." Yang Qi said anxiously. "How can you go to Liaodong outside the Guan? The head of Donglu is so easy to get? How many people died in our officers and soldiers in the past few years? Isn't that enough? Sixth brother, I don't agree with you going there, that is How can we go somewhere to die?" When the Ming Dynasty army was defeated in Liaodong, I don't know how many people were killed or injured. They, the guest troops who went to support, died. , Wounded and wounded, fleeing, how many people have homes and dare not go back, fearing that the court will investigate, how many people fall into the grass and become bandits, living a life that the sky does not care about, and the land does not reap. Now I finally have a hope, I can go to the south of the Yangtze River, Away from this sea of ​​suffering, but going to that place of death, how can we not be in a hurry.

"Old Seven! Sixth Brother has already considered this matter clearly and inquired about it clearly. Now, the Holy Son of Heaven is recruiting headhunter warriors, and the rewards given should not be in arrears. I think the tens of millions of taels of silver are worth it." Be willing, there is no reason to short us a few rewards, don’t you know your sixth brother’s martial arts? It’s not difficult to take old buddies and brothers to get a few heads... Hehe..." Yang Liu said of himself Martial arts, very confident.

"But, Sixth Brother, I still don't trust you to go. Donglu are all barbarians, and it's very dangerous to fight against them..." Yang Qi said anxiously.

"Hehe, old seven, your sixth brother has already inquired about it. This time, the outside of the customs is different from before. What kind of military control is implemented outside the customs, and I am allowed to kill thieves with guns and knives. Your sixth brother even heard about it. Now Ouchi has released a new type of musket, called 'Ouchi made', which can fire without lighting a match, and it is quite sharp. Think about it, a dozen of us bought dozens of this new type of musket from him, and sneaked into Donglu Behind us, with a shot of muskets, we killed a few Dong captives, cut off their heads and left. With our ability, who can catch up with us? When we ran to the court's territory, those Dong captives would not dare to chase us. This head , as long as we are cold-blooded and don’t fight against Donglu, are we afraid that we won’t get a kill? Now that there is no dog officer to command blindly, we can do whatever we want...what are we afraid of..." Yang Liu said with a smile , as if he was secretly going to get people's heads in the dark.

"But..., this..." Yang Qi was in a hurry. Although he wanted to stop Yang Liu, unfortunately, he had nothing to say.

"Sixth brother, really, is there really such a good thing? Can you sell us all the latest muskets in Ouchi? Tsk tsk, if there is such a sharp musket, you can go up there at night and let him go secretly. The gun, who knows, it’s not the matchlock gun of the past, you have to light the matchlock, and you can see us from a long distance... If you really have this kind of musket, it’s a good guy to steal a few heads at night..., Take a cold breath and leave, with our skills, isn't that easy to catch?" Some people firmly supported Yang Liu.

"That is, of course it can't be wrong. I also heard that His Majesty also made a kind of grenade, which is specially used to defend the city. When you use it, hundreds of them are thrown out at the same time. As many as you come, you will die. It is a very terrifying method." Things, listen to them, even if it is a small fort now, as long as there are grenades, Donglu can't easily take it down. If you want to take it down, it is basically impossible to break it except for people's lives. Haha, that's why I, Yang Liu, have this This kind of plan, when the time comes to get heads and run into the city, what will those Eastern captives do to us? After getting some heads, saving some money, or getting an official position in the past two years, we will go to the south again Wouldn't it be fun to live a stable life, and it's not in vain to practice this martial art..." Yang Liu is always a person who is unwilling to be lonely. He wants to die of old age peacefully, and he feels that it is always a pity, so he decides to try it out, just like the song As sung in the song, if the heart is there, the dream is there, but it is just starting from the beginning. Yang Liu is also determined to get back the lost official body. Back then, he had no choice but to become a deserter. Now, he can start all over again. No matter what, he, Yang Liu, wanted to try.

"Brother Six, we'll go with you..."

"Brother Six, we'll go with you..."

……

Yang Liu is very prestigious among this group of people, and there are not a few people who want to follow Yang Liu to hunt and kill heads.

"Sixth brother, but? We still have the old, the young, and the wives, what should we do? We can't leave them behind, can we?" Yang Qi said anxiously. He had no choice but to take out the children and wives.

"Hehe, old seven, this is also where your sixth brother entrusted you. Everyone's wives and children, and the elderly in the family are all taken care of by you. You can take them to the south to settle down, and wait for us to make a name for ourselves outside the pass." , go back again, that's the scenery,...hehe, I have won everyone's hearts, but this time there don't need to be too many people, a dozen people are enough, and the rest of the people, follow Lao Qi to immigrate to the south , if there are fewer men in our team, we are afraid that others will bully us, Lao Qi, please..." Yang Liu is a man of one word, and what he says is already a certainty.

Yang Qi had no choice but to sigh a few times in frustration, as a tacit acquiescence, and it was impossible for his sixth brother Yang Liu to repent of what he had made.

"Brother Six, I'll go..."

"Brother Six, I'll go too..."

"Brother Six, take me with you..."

Everyone began to compete for these places.

"Okay, old man, brothers, don't argue... whoever will go, I know in my heart..., those who go, follow me to Mr. Shi tomorrow to ask for a road, a license, and send Yang Qi away. They, let's go to Liaodong..." Yang Liu said happily, as if a bunch of human heads were placed in front of his eyes.

……

Along the Yellow River, in the darkness, a burst of singing came, it was "Start Over Again".

"If the heart is there, the dream is there..."

"...It's just starting all over again..." A burst of heroic singing shook the night and the water of the Yellow River.

[Worry, this song is sung in Mandarin now. If you travel to ancient times, there is a problem with this song, that is, the problem of dialect. Haha, I don’t know if this song is good to sing in Shaanxi dialect. It will change. If you have book friends from Shaanxi, you might as well try it and see what effect it will have if you sing this song in Shaanxi dialect. If you can, you can reply in the book review area.Hehe, time travel is risky, imitation needs to be cautious! 】

Outside the customs, Liaodong, Shenyang.

This is the original Shenyang Wei of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is the capital of "Dajin".

In a fairly luxurious palace, a man in his thirties was anxiously looking at a letter in a daze. This man had a red complexion and was handsome. If it wasn't for his conspicuous clothes, he would most likely be considered a scholar. This one is the khan of "Great Gold", Huang Taiji.

"Khan, what does this letter say?" asked a 30-year-old Confucian scholar next to him.

"Xiandou, take a look for yourself." Huang Taiji handed the letter to the Confucian scholar in his 30s next to him.

The Confucian scholar took the letter and read it carefully, the more he read, the more bitter he felt.

"...the emperor of the Ming Dynasty made a thing that can carry people to the sky. It is said that it is the same as a large Kongming lantern... August [-]th..." The Confucian scholar finished reading the letter bitterly, and then said bitterly Speaking of it, he couldn't help sighing in his heart. If Fan Wencheng had been born a few years later, and had met the Holy Son of Heaven earlier, things would not have happened. Now that he has nearly invested a lot of money, it would be impossible to look back. Looking at it now In this form, Da Ming has regained his breath, thinking of being the founding father of Daikin, I am afraid it will be a dream.

"Yes! Xiandou, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is very powerful! Several moves, all hit the key point, the Kongming lantern that can carry people to the sky, Xiandou, have you heard of the telescope in the past? With this thing, The movements within a radius of dozens of miles can be seen at a glance... In the future, I, Dajin, will fight against the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that if I have not fought, I have already lost..." Huang Taiji said disappointedly. When a hairy boy becomes emperor, the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos. He just took the opportunity to expand his power. How can he know that the emperor is young, but he is honored as the Holy Son of Heaven, and what he has done is extraordinary. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence that Nine Thousand Years was brought down, and I borrowed the power of the North Korean officials, but when other things came, Huang Taiji felt more and more that things were not good.

Just a tens of millions of taels of silver went to disaster relief, Huang Taiji was amazed. At first, he thought that the emperor was too young, too naive, whimsical, joking, and joking. Now it seems that it is definitely not the case. It is said that the emperor has He paid millions of taels of silver to the immigrants, and it became true even if it wasn't true. As a result, the emperor's reputation among the people climbed to the top. In the Ming Dynasty, he became the Holy Son of Heaven praised by everyone. , everyone will have three disasters and nine disasters, and everyone wants someone to save him when he is in disaster.

Because of this, Huang Taiji paid more attention to the news of the Ming Dynasty. The news that came out now disappointed him more. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be coming towards him, and he seemed to regard him as a big Although the enemy didn't shout to fight and kill, and didn't gather hundreds of thousands of troops with millions of taels of silver to attack him, but the more news came, the more frightened he was!Huang Taiji gradually developed the desire for the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to send hundreds of thousands of troops to attack.
