Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

"Kill the local tyrants, divide the land, and after dividing the land, I will be able to support myself!"

The scene before him gave Li Zicheng an illusion!

He inexplicably felt that he had seen this scene somewhere before.

Seeing that the morale of the villagers was getting higher and higher, and everyone was shouting with red faces and thick necks, he suddenly drew out his dagger and shouted loudly.

"Uncles, nephews, and grandchildren, follow me!"

"First, rob Mr. Deng and take his silk and satin to make clothes for his children!"

"Open their granary so that the ladies can have enough food to eat!"

"If you are not afraid of death, follow me!"

After saying that, he squeezed the horse's belly hard, pulled the reins, and rushed towards Mr. Deng's house at the other end of the village.

When it comes to survival, all the so-called etiquette and laws have been thrown into the cesspool.

The villagers hesitated for only a moment, then followed Li Guo and chased after Li Zicheng.

At the other end of the village, Mr. Deng's family had already been startled by the slogans that were getting louder and louder.

Mr. Deng, wearing a wolfskin cloak and holding a heater in his hands, sat in the flower hall and frowned at the housekeeper in front of him.

"Hurry up and send someone out to see what happened in the village!"

The butler said yes, turned around and left.

But not long after, Mr. Deng heard the sound of horse hooves.

Then, screams and curses from the servants were heard from the front yard.

Then, the butler came running back covered in blood.

"Master, run away!"

"Those untouchables came here together to kill us, and threatened to rebel!"

"Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't leave now!"

Mr. Deng's eyes widened as he heard this: "He, he, they want to rebel?"

"boom!"

Just then, a corpse was suddenly thrown at his feet.

"That's right, men want to rebel!"

"Use the Deng family as a sacrifice first!"

Li Zicheng walked in with a ferocious look on his face, and the short knife in his hand had been replaced with a spear at some point.

The tip of the gun was pointing directly at Mr. Deng’s chest!

Mr. Deng's face turned pale instantly and his body began to tremble.

"Yellow boy, why do you have to do this?"

"You, you, you just want food, right?"

"Uh, I'll give it to you! Isn't it okay for me to give it to you?"

"All the food in the house is at your disposal."

"Please, don't, don't kill me..."

As he said this, he fell to his knees with a thud and began to kowtow frantically for mercy.

"Flower dog, I leave it to you!"

Li Zicheng looked at Mr. Deng with disdain, strode to a chair nearby, sat down, and waved to the outside.

The spotted dog wrapped in a bed sheet pushed through the villagers and squeezed in, blood still dripping from the hatchet in his hand.

When he saw Mr. Deng, he immediately shouted and chopped him down with a knife.

"Give me back my life!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the knife fell!

Mr. Deng was so frightened that his body turned into mud. He wanted to hide but couldn't move. His huge head was chopped off in an instant.

Those eyes, until death, still maintained an expression of extreme fear, looking at the sky helplessly.

Hua Gou did not stop. After killing Mr. Deng, he called his son and rushed to the backyard.

Mr. Deng was just an accomplice, and his son was the real murderer who killed his wife!

Li Zicheng turned a blind eye to this, sat in the flower hall, and began to direct others to act separately.

Search for money and food!

This is the primary purpose!

Half an hour later, Mr. Deng's family, young and old, were sent to the underground to reunite.

A big pot was set up outside the flower hall. The white flour buns and fragrant bacon made every villager who participated in the rebellion swallow their saliva.

It seemed like they had never eaten such a sumptuous meal in their lives!

Rebellion is great!

After finishing his meal, Li Zicheng ordered his men to take the money, grain and valuables seized from Mr. Deng's house and head straight to Mr. Liu's house in the neighboring village.

He still remembered what he promised Hua Gou.

However, they had not walked far when he stopped the team, reined in his horse and looked at everyone.

"If we rob the Deng family, we will be in the same boat!"

"I have a rule to tell you first!"

"We rebelled because we couldn't survive!"

"So, in the future, if anyone dares to bully poor people, don't blame me for chopping you off first!"

"Also, don't abuse women!"

"It just so happens that I don't have any eunuchs to serve me. If anyone dares to abuse a woman, I will castrate him!"

He knew very well that he was only rebelling in compliance with the emperor's order, and that he would be cleared of all charges sooner or later!

Therefore, evil gentry can be killed, local tyrants can be beaten, and even a few corrupt officials can be killed, but oppressing the good is absolutely not allowed!

The emperor won’t let him go if that happens!

The villagers...

Oh no, now it should be called the Rebel Army!

How could the rebels have any objection?

They are kind-hearted people who cannot survive. They have just raised the flag of rebellion, and I would not be able to bear to let them bully people with the same fate as them.

Of course, if Li Zicheng does not set rules at this moment, and they do such things in the future and taste the sweetness, he will not be able to control them even if he wants to.

Half an hour later, Mr. Liu from the neighboring village was executed by the rebels. The only survivor was Mr. Liu's daughter, who was left by Li Zicheng to Hua Gou's son.

This is paying off a debt!

It also gives her a way to survive!

Liu was very sensible. Facing these fierce rebels, she knew what her family had done over the years, so she obediently followed the team.

After coming out of Liujia Village, the team looked completely new.

Those who had no clothes changed into new clothes looted from the two officials' homes, and those who had no weapons acquired dung forks and hoes.

Not only that, the number of troops under Li Zicheng also expanded from about a hundred to nearly four hundred!

The spotted dog rode a mule, caught up from behind and smiled at Li Zicheng.

"Master, I heard that there's a new magistrate in Mizhi who's greedier than a dung beetle. Should we go and rob him?"

"New magistrate?" Li Zicheng looked at him suspiciously, "Where is the old magistrate?"

Hua Gou answered without thinking: "I heard that he was transferred back to the capital. The new county magistrate seems to be called Mao Songguang. He was originally the Minister of Personnel of the imperial court. I don't know why he was suddenly demoted to become the county magistrate!"

"Although Magistrate Mao has only been in Mizhi for less than a month, I heard that in this month, he has already taken in two concubines!"

"besides......."

The Mao Songguang he was talking about was one of the officials who was banished from the capital by Zhu Youxiao. Perhaps because all his wealth was confiscated, Mao Songguang revealed his greedy face as soon as he arrived in Mizhi.

Although the tax increases and plundering under various pretexts have not lasted long, they have become notorious.

Li Zicheng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.

The emperor just replaced the county magistrate, and now he wants us to come back and rebel?

Could it be..........

Chapter 27 Li Zicheng's Crazy Expansion

Is the emperor using his own hands to kill those disobedient officials?

Otherwise, why would the magistrate of Mizhi be replaced in advance?

There is only one reason, that is, the new county magistrate is even more damnable than the previous one!

In this case, don't blame yourself for being rude...

Damn him!

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng waved to Li Guo.

"Bring out the land deeds found in Mr. Liu and Mr. Deng's homes!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guo quickly took the package from behind him and opened it, revealing a bunch of yellowed land deeds.

Li Zicheng looked at the 400 people behind him, picked up a stack of land deeds and raised them above his head.

"Uncles, nephews, and grandchildren!"

"I've said before, fight the local tyrants and divide the land!"

“Now is the time to divide the land!”

"Who has ever been educated? Come out and help me divide the land!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became excited, and three slightly frail men squeezed out of the crowd and bowed to Li Zicheng.

"Sir, I studied in the village school for two years!"

"I've studied for half a year!"

"Well, I studied for three years!"

Li Zicheng stuffed the land deeds into their arms and said, "My family is poor and I have never been to school. I will leave this matter to you!"

"Let's calculate how much land there is in total. Everyone here has a share!"

"Each of you three will get an extra five acres of land!"

The three guys were so excited when they heard this that snot bubbles almost popped out of their noses.

Others even knelt on the ground and expressed their gratitude to Li Zicheng profusely.

Although the two farms did not have much land, when it was divided among these people, each person got three acres of irrigated land and two acres of dry land.

As soon as the land deed was obtained, everyone shouted excitedly.

But at this moment, Li Zicheng suddenly interrupted them.

"Uncles, nephews, and grandchildren!"

"I'll give you some of the field!"

"But do you really think this is yours?"

"If we want to keep your fields, we have to keep fighting!"

"Take down Dianshi! Take down Mizhi, burn down the warehouse, and the government will no longer have the land deeds on file. Only then will these fields truly belong to you!"

Everyone woke up from their ecstasy.
