I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 633, Land of Hay

Although Liu Bei has a good reputation in Sichuan, in order to support the front line in Hanzhong, Yuan Ji has been searching for food and grass in Sichuan for two years. During these two years, the young and strong men in Sichuan are either going to the battlefield or transporting grain. On the road, there are even many women doing such things. The entire population of Sichuan is only more than 2 million, but 300-2% of them are transporting grain and grass. The large population maintains the later stage of Liu Bei's army, so that the entire There are not many young and strong people in Sichuan.

This kind of cruel exploitation has left the fields of the people in the middle of Shu barren, the wives and children of the people are scattered, and the whole of the middle of Shu is in a state of depression. Liu Bei's prestige in the middle of Shu has been quickly worn down in this year. Now the people in the middle of Shu have begun to curse Liu Bei. up.

It can be said that the entire central Sichuan has become a land of hay, and the team Xu Wei sent out is Xinghuo, and this kind of thing is also what Dagan is best at.When these squads came to Sichuan, they met the miserable people who were devastated by the war. As soon as the two sides united, the whole Sichuan began to burn. The people began to be angry, and they began to vent their anger!

Under the organization of the soldiers of the Dagan Army, the local people refused to continue to serve corvee in Hanzhong and evaded military service.In order to solve the problem of survival, the people in central Shu, under the leadership of the Dagan team, began to find ways to attack the Wubao and the city of the aristocratic families in central Shu.

The crowbar, which hadn't been used for a long time, reappeared, and the noble families in central Shu had not experienced the wars experienced by the Han clan, and they had nothing to do with the crowbar, a new type of siege weapon.

Any targeted Wubao will be surrounded by local people, and then use crowbars to pry off the bricks of Wubao little by little. Soon, with the efforts of tens of thousands of people, a small hole will expand into a huge trench. Countless people rushed in from this ditch, killed all the owners of Wubao, and robbed them of their food and money!

Each of these Wubao has a lot of money and food, enough to feed tens of thousands of people!Although Liu Bei has carried out certain reforms on the big Han, such as sharing the income of the people into the mu, and strictly supervising the taxation of the powerful and noble families.This greatly enhanced the taxation of the big man, after all, the clan of the big man did not pay taxes in the past.

But even with such a policy, as long as the land is not divided, the powerful and nobles still occupy the best land, and they still have a large amount of food income every year, even because of Liu Bei's large number of new farm tools, as well as struvite, soil and chemical fertilizers, etc. to increase production The means, the nobles in central Sichuan soon discovered that the increase in food production not only offset the taxes they were charged, but even made them more profitable!Therefore, under Liu Bei's policy, the wealth of the noble families in central Shu is still growing!

When the people in central Shu were in great pain, the nobles and nobles in central Shu still lived well. They could even curse Liu Bei in their respective forts for not being able to repel Lei Gong, and let their families bear a lot of taxes. Let the middle of Shu wither.

At the same time, he also cursed Yuan Ji for disregarding the interests of the powerful, and it was fine to increase the taxes and corvee of the mud-legged people, but even the nobles and nobles would not let them go. It is still unprecedented for them to be able to pay taxes. They have all appeared here with their family members in Sichuan, this is bullying them that there is no one in the court in Sichuan!

But they don't think that the people in the middle of Sichuan are almost unable to survive, and they can still eat and curse Liu Bei in their Wubao!

They are not ignorant of the surrounding situation, and they even contributed to the flames, pushing the corvee belonging to their family onto ordinary people, and trying to annex the land where there are not many people in central Shu!At the same time, they were worried about the rebellion of the vicious mob, and they hid in the Wubao early. They didn't think that the skinny and muddy legs who were already hungry could break through their Wubao!

As for the big army!It's not that Liu Bei's hundreds of thousands of troops are blocked in Hanzhong. If you want to come, the large army will not be able to enter Shuzhong. What are they afraid of!If Liu Bei is defeated, what are they resisting, they might as well surrender early!
As a result, the people who endured the disadvantages completely overthrew them, and now they are asking for trouble!

Yuan Ji soon discovered that several counties in central Shu could no longer be contacted. When he learned about the situation, he found that many counties and villages in Guanghan County and Berkshire had already been controlled by the Dagan. Even the county seat will be conquered by them!

But many Wubao villages in central Shu were breached by them, and now the clans in central Shu ran to him one by one and cried to Yuan Ji, wanting Yuan Ji to help them regain their property!

When Yuan Ji heard about this, he immediately understood that this was a means by the army. This is not the first time they have faced such a situation. Lei Gong is very good at bewitching the people. The rich are poor people. Back then in Bingzhou and Jizhou They all have such methods. Before the front line is defeated, the rear is bewitched by Lei Gong to become an enemy, and then their army completely collapses. Now Lei Gong is using this method in their Yizhou.

And Yuan Ji, as the commander-in-chief of the general, naturally understood how heavy the taxes and corvee were for the people in Sichuan in the past two years!Now he is trying to persuade them that they will definitely rebel, and he even started to rejoice that the young and strong people in the middle of Shu have been incorporated into the civilian husbands by him. , to some extent, the momentum of rebellion in Guanghan and other places has not yet expanded, thanks to this reason!
But soon Yuan Ji stopped laughing, and his subordinates ran over and said, "Yuan Changshi, something is wrong. The rioters defeated our team of transporting grain and grass. Tens of thousands of civilians joined the rioters!"

"What!" Yuan Ji stood up in horror when he heard this. If the civilian husbands were involved, these rioters would not only affect the food transportation at the front line, but the entry of the civilian husbands would also enhance the combat effectiveness of these rioters. More than 300 million people, if they continue to be bewitched by Dagan, the whole of Sichuan may be conquered by these rioters!

Faced with this critical situation, Yuan Ji had no choice but to contact Liu Bei on the front line.

Liu Bei was also taken aback when he heard about this situation. He is too familiar with Lei Gong. Qianjun, soon the entire central Sichuan will be captured by the Dagan army, his soldiers on the front line will also be cut off from food and grass, and hundreds of thousands of troops will be defeated by the Dagan army!And if the middle of Shu is captured by Dagan, and the hundreds of thousands of Dahan's army are wiped out by Dagan, the countdown to the demise of the whole Dahan will enter.

So Liu Bei sent Zhao Yun to lead 1 Han troops to clear up the main army in Shu, and they must not be allowed to continue to spread!At this time, the competition between the two sides had reached the most intense level, and Liu Bei no longer dared to retreat.
