Traveler Major League

Chapter 21

"Don't run around, I will stab you to death!"

"Mom, where are you?"

"Oh, stop hitting, stop hitting!"

This is the result of Liu Ze's order to maintain the order of the recruits. Liu Ze counted, and the number of recruits who took the initiative to join the recruit team exceeded 200 people, old and young, and those who mixed with the old All the weak ones have joined, seeing this Liu Ze doesn't care, one counts as one, and they are all his subordinates. The corresponding part of the old and weak people is really only the old and the weak now, there are only more than [-] people , the other people and the people in the original Zhuangzi all ran away.

Seeing that the sky was getting late and no one came out of the fire, Liu Ze watched the people around turn over and climbed onto the top of the cart and said, "Brothers, I just panned, and there are more than 2 catties here." Food, it sounds like a lot, but it is only enough for more than 400 of us to eat for a month!"

Hearing this, the crowd buzzed into confusion: "Then what should we do? We snatched these from the fire with all our might, and gave them all to Huode Xingjun!"

"Which son of a bitch set the fire just now?"

"How can you rush to collect food if you can't eat enough!"

"This little food is enough to last for several days! I don't want to go hungry any more!"

Hearing the big guys scrambling to complain, Liu Ze held his forehead and sighed.

If I knew this earlier, why did I do it in the first place!
"This is a lesson. Whose fault is it that such a big village has been burned, and so little food has been robbed?" Liu Ze stood on the top of the cart and questioned the crowd below.

Everyone was silent.

Seeing this situation, Liu Ze continued: "So, this is the first and last time!"

"I blew the door open this time, and rushed inside, ignoring my orders. Is this all right? Seeing so much grain in the granary, what can you do? Can you move it all out at once? Or can the food fly out by itself? At most, one person can only move out a few dozen catties!"

Seeing everyone's remorseful expressions, Liu Ze changed his tone and comforted him again: "As long as you follow me and join the team, if I have a bite to eat, you will definitely have a bite to eat. I will never eat alone!" Liu Ze said Ze slashed at the handrail of the car with his waist knife, and the handrail broke in response, "As long as we get together, the combined power will be greater than your imagination. In the future, I will announce that anyone who dares to disobey my order and act without permission will kill everyone." amnesty!"

Everyone lowered their heads with guilt, and were silent. Only Wang Shanbao raised his fist and shouted: "Listen to the master! The master is right!"

After that, he looked around and saw that no one agreed with him, so he lowered his fist in embarrassment.

"Start cooking now, follow me to Majiazhai tomorrow, and when you get there, your parents and children can be settled. This is not enough food, we have to send people to the surrounding villages to borrow money and food!" Liu Ze encouraged Morale, the force is insufficient now, and we can only use words to prevent the appearance of large-scale escapers at night.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Ze counted the number of people. Fortunately, there were not too many fugitives last night, and it was not in vain that he ran on the cart and gave a speech for a long time!

Without waiting for his subordinates to dawdle, Liu Ze ordered to march towards Majiazhai with all his strength.

The morale along the way was not bad, it was fun, and everyone was willing to listen to Liu Ze's orders, unlike the previous road to Zhaojiazhuang to collect grain, everyone was hungry and weak, and they all followed Liu Ze on the road , did not quite believe him.

Now it finally looks a little organized, Liu Ze is secretly happy.

When he came back to Majiazhai again, Liu Ze was in a completely different mood. Before he left last time, he was just a passer-by, but this time he became the owner, and he brought a team of more than 400 people!Although more than half of them can only be regarded as old and weak, this is still the power of the pot of gold!

The overall scale of Majiazhai is not large. When it is said to be a village, it actually refers to its dangerous location and the protection of the wall. There are not many buildings in the core area. After all, there were not many villagers before.

Standing on a high place, Liu Zecai discovered that the layout of the village is very distinctive. Basically, five houses form a unit, gradually expanding outward from the big brick-and-tiled house in the middle. Each unit is divided by streets and alleys. The layout is neat and orderly. There are farmlands in front of the plain, and a small river flows through it in the distance. The whole village is on a hilly slope. Behind the wall is the place where Liu Ze was imprisoned. There are only a few thatched huts. Beyond that are the mountains.

It is really a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you put up a defensive formation, it is really not easy for hundreds of people to attack. It is no wonder that Second Brother Wang will be the primary raid target.

It's just that compared to Liu Ze's team of several hundred people, the houses are still extremely insufficient, so they can only make do.

Now the wheat in the fields below Majiazhai is about to be harvested. At that time, there will be some food to meet the shortage, but it may not be too late to plant food again, because by then, there will definitely be a large army of encirclement and suppression from the imperial court. .

This Majiazhai is very difficult to defend, I am afraid that they will have to retreat to the depths of the mountains in the future.

What can be done now is to accumulate strength and develop in the mountains. Even if the officers and soldiers come to suppress them, they can drag them first. Anyway, there are many other rebels except him, and only climbing technology is the ultimate way to break the situation!
This was Liu Ze's idea, but Lao Kong obviously didn't think it was a wise decision.

"Boy, if you want to be a traitor, do you know how to make it to the end?" Old Kong stroked the tip of his beard with his right hand, acting like a master.

"Old Kong, what do you think the rebels will do?" Liu Ze asked him back.

Old Kong replied: "Of course I'm going to be a bandit. I follow your plan. What's going on? Are you going to be a bandit?"

"How about sitting bandits? What about wandering bandits?"

In fact, Liu Ze doesn't care about bandits and bandits, as long as it can develop, it doesn't matter what form it is!
"All dynasties and dynasties just started to sit down, but once you become a sit-down, the imperial army's counter-insurgency army immediately rises again and again, making you unable to develop. How can a region's population and product economy resist it? The whole country?" Lao Kong continued, shaking his beard, "Now the Holy Son of Heaven is reborn! The world is at peace! The best way for you to survive to the end is to become a bandit, don't care about one city or one place, as long as you coerce the people and destroy the order of all places. Chaos, the more people who lose order and have to rebel, so that there is a chance of survival."

Liu Ze stared at Lao Kong in surprise: "Old Kong, who are you? How do you know these things?"

Unexpectedly, the old man pulled his face up to the sky: "Yang's water is chiseled by white stones. Plain clothes and Zhu Chen follow Zi Yuwo. Now that you see a gentleman, why don't you be happy? Yang's water, white stones are bright. Plain clothes and red embroidery, from Zi Yuwo. Zi Yuhu. Now that I see a gentleman, why worry about it? The rising water is sparkling with white stones. I heard that I have a destiny, but I dare not tell others. This old man is a scholar!"

Cheng Mo, who was standing next to him, looked at Lao Kong's tugging, made an annoyed "cut" and turned his head away.

On the contrary, Wang Shanbao was very interested in the conversation between Liu Ze and Lao Kong. He kept praising Lao Kong as a "smart star", and even came to pester Lao Kong to talk about it. It is best to speak plain language, otherwise he will not understand!
Old Kong stared back at Cheng Mo's back.While brushing away Wang Shanbao's begging hand, he found an excuse and ran away.

He has no time to tell stories with Wang Shanbao here!There are many things in the team!
Now Liu Ze's team is divided into two parts. He personally leads an armed team of more than 200 people, and the other 200 people who are old and weak are led by Lao Kong.

The best house in the middle of Majiazhai is occupied by Liu Ze, which will become Liu Ze’s bedroom, meeting room, and material warehouse. The other four houses connected together are occupied by Lao Kong, Cheng Mo, Guo Shunwang, and Wang’s siblings. , and the houses in the surrounding villages were allocated by Liu Ze to the young and strong, basically five people to one room.As for other houses, they can only be allocated to the remaining old and weak. In fact, there are definitely not enough houses, but no matter how insufficient they are, they can only make do.

Everyone took it for granted, except Liu Ze, but now is not the time to express his thoughts.

First arrange for the old and the weak to clean up all the houses, and then Liu Ze personally leads the young and strong to bury all the corpses behind the mountain, and Lao Kong arranges a simple memorial ceremony.

It was evening, and the fiery red sunset shone on the back hill of Majiazhai, and also shone in front of the tombs that had just been piled up. Standing in front of the team, Lao Kong looked solemn. He picked up a pile of paper money and burned them in the brazier.After a while, the paper money burned more and more vigorously, and the flames rushed into the sky.

Liu Ze slowly came to the tomb with a glass of wine. The red light of the setting sun and the burning paper money were reflected on his face. He poured down a glass of wine and watched the paper money flying in the air entangled like several white cranes. .

At that moment, he really felt that the people under these tombs had gone to a new world.

"This is the troubled times at the end of the Ming Dynasty!" Liu Ze said silently to the hundreds of graves in front of him, "I can't save you, and many of you really deserve to die! The first time I killed someone here, I still killed you!" I lost three, but I don’t regret it! I don’t know why I came to this era of cannibalism in the late Ming Dynasty! But after seeing so many cruel scenes, I gradually understand the meaning of my being here!”

Old Kong behind him listened to Liu Ze's chatter, but because he was a little far away, he couldn't hear clearly, so he moved two steps forward quietly. Seeing his appearance, Wang Shanbao came over curiously.The two sneaked around, but their heads accidentally fought in the air. With a "bang", Lao Kong was in pain, and his beard flew up in shock. He stared angrily at Wang Shanbao, who was still scratching his head.

Just as he was about to explode, he heard Liu Ze talking again in front of the tomb, so he kept quiet and leaned over to continue eavesdropping.

"I want to change this era. Many people may die, but I don't regret it! Because I want to save more people, and only I can. History tells me that everyone else's choice is wrong! As long as the future can go On the right path, no matter how many people are sacrificed, it is worth it, including me." Liu Ze clenched his fists and looked straight ahead, this time Liu Ze did not have the slightest fear.

Because in this world, Liu Ze is ready to use his trump card!
(On the choice of ideological construction in the book: As people in two worlds, they don’t understand each other’s values. This is the point of contradiction where ideas collide. It’s the protagonist’s wishful thinking and obsession. Therefore, there are all kinds of defectors, even the first subordinates have defected, many subordinates do not trust the protagonist, and many subordinates think that the protagonist is a pure idiot who rebels against the wishful thinking, but this is also a process of elimination , he also gained staunch supporters, and even those who called him a fool had to admit that the protagonist is a good man worthy of entrustment. The fish may be caught by the fishbone, and this plot was written. You can’t say that your author should not write the plot of eating fish, right? The above mentioned some readers’ doubts about the ideological construction of the latter part.)
