After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

Chapter 122 The two thieves Liu and Zhang

"After capturing the county seat and killing the government officials, Liu Jinguang opened the county government granary and let those who followed the rebellion take it for themselves.

Even if the brave people in the county went to get food, he would not stop him. As a result, he gained people's hearts and the number of people who took refuge in him increased day by day.

He accepted everyone who came, even those who committed crimes, and specially opened the county government cells to select the most vicious people as his confidants. Soon, his team exceeded 5000 people. "

After Liu Jinguang's rebellion, Gao Lingying had already figured out his background and his rise to power. Of course, some of the information was also provided to him by Governor Dou.

"If you don't stop people from getting food, this person still has a conscience."

Wei Wen said, as for Liu Jinguang using prisoners to fight, the Wei army also used to use prisoners to fight, but they did not use them as confidants, but as consumables.

The generals below heard that Wei Wen said that Liu Jinguang had a conscience and was not easy to talk to, so they pretended not to hear. Seeing that everyone was silent, Wei Wen immediately understood that she wanted to be simple.

Gao Lingying did not answer and continued:

"And such a group of people gathered together to eat and drink, consuming an unknown amount of food every day. Soon, the food in the granary was consumed by them.

What should I do if I don’t have anything to eat?What will a group of people who are lazy but have power do?Grab it! "

"So the wealthy families in the county destroyed the rice fields first, and then these people, under the banner of justice, rushed into the wealthy families' homes and grabbed whatever they saw.
At the beginning, they only attacked the big and wealthy households in the county. When they saw the wealthy and wealthy households suffer, the people in the whole county cheered and gloated over it.

But later, within a few days, they were the ones being robbed. "

"Qingjun, why! Why does Liu Jinguang want his people to rob ordinary people? They don't have much money left, so what's the use of robbing them? Robbing ten thousand civilian households is not as good as robbing a rich household."

Wei Wen asked her quietly in Shen Qingjun's ear. This time she learned wisely and stopped asking questions loudly.

It is not difficult to see from her words that Wei Guoping often taught her robbery skills in front of her. After all, the Wei army was still robbing Chen Guoda a year ago!
In fact, before and after the founding of the country, the Great Wei Army had a tradition of looting the local big families after conquering a place.
And the methods are not as rough as Liu Jinguang. They usually send letters to famous families in counties and counties, asking them to "donate" some money and food to Wei as military supplies.

"Because Liu Jinguang can no longer control the people under his command. Of course, it is also possible that he does not want to control. After all, rebellion is a business of beheading. Many people actually do not have the courage to rebel. They can only let the newcomers get blood on their hands. Those who Only people will follow him wholeheartedly." Shen Qingjun explained her doubts.

At this time, Gao Lingying's words came,

"It wasn't until Liu Jinguang's people brought disaster to a county that Liu Jinguang took his people and left.

When he left, almost everyone in the county followed him, because there was no food in the county, and because of this, his team quickly expanded to more than [-] people. "

"But apart from the more than 1 strong men who followed him wholeheartedly, all of the team were women and children."

There are countless lives hidden in Gao Lingying's calm words. Does one county only have more than 1 men and women and more than 4 women and children?Certainly not possible, where did all those few people go?
"In this way, he found another unlucky county to attack, and the cycle started over and over again. He has already harmed dozens of counties. This thief also moved from Lintong County, Shuofang County to the vicinity of Sihe County, Liugu County."

Gao Ling pointed at the marching map behind him one by one with his commander, "This is the first county Liu Jinguang conquered, Shuofang County and Lintong County. This county was also his hometown. After that, he ran around aimlessly, passing through Lingwu County, Yantong County, and Yantong County. Chuan County, Huining County, and Liugu County.”

As Gao Ling used bamboo sticks to point out these counties one by one, everyone understood the general route of Liu Jinguang, the thief.

"All the counties on the route map of this thief's escape have been breached by him, and after attacking two counties, this thief will not kill the people anymore. He thinks it is too wasteful, so he will coerce the people instead." "After that Every time a thief breaks into a county, he opens the granary and eats like crazy. When the food is almost gone, his men force the people to leave the county.

Then the elite old thieves act as the supervising team, and use these common people as consumables to attack another county. Because they use all possible methods to destroy the city, no county can be destroyed. "

"This man has no conscience and is really hateful. The Wei army never allowed the people to attack the city."

Wei Wen gritted her teeth and said, this time everyone in the account nodded in agreement.

Gao Lingying has said so much, and everyone knows what kind of person Liu Jinguang is - he commits crimes on the run, robs women and people of their property, and hijacks the people... so he is a complete bandit leader!Then, when dealing with such a person, one must hit him with one blow and avoid future troubles forever.

"As for Zhang Yuancheng, another rebel leader, at the beginning, although he followed the path of rebellion, he also followed the path of a rogue bandit, destroying the countryside - holding the villagers hostage - attacking the county government...

But this person has a bottom line and can exercise restraint. His methods are not as cruel as Liu Jinguang's, and he can also control his men. "

After Gao Lingying saw that everyone had digested the information about Liu Jinguang, he got Shen Qingjun's permission to name the next rebel leader.

"After he conquered the county government, he did not do anything to the big households who took refuge in him.

He will kill all the big households who reject him, and ordinary people will win the hearts of ordinary people with small favors!

Of course, all wealthy families must surrender their names to him. "He paused for a moment.

"How do I hand over my certificate?" Wei Wen has a straightforward personality, and she immediately asks if she has doubts in her heart.

"It's just to drag out an official from the Wei Dynasty and let the head of the family, heirs or important clan members of the family who surrendered to him stab him one by one."

Shen Qingjun said, Hey!Why is she so familiar with these ways of rebellion?

"Zhang Yuancheng's soldiers and horses are also following the route of elite soldiers. Now he only has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and this man eats and lives with his thieves.

Not like Liu Jinguang, who was greedy for pleasure and obsessed with women, and stole more than 100 women around him for his pleasure. "

"He doesn't like wine and sex. He eats millet and wheat. He shares the joys and sorrows with his subordinates. He is quite ambitious." Shen Qingjun said.

Why did Shen Qingjun say this? Because Zhang Yuancheng used a method of winning people's hearts. He at least had the ambition to dominate one party and rule as king.

"Look, everyone, this is Wencheng County where he is entrenched. It is backed by the Helan Mountains, with the Wei River flowing through it. It has natural and dangerous mountains and rivers.

It was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and his people also wantonly built fortresses, which meant that the separatist party would fight against the imperial court. "

As expected, Gao Lingying's next sentence confirmed Shen Qingjun's suspicion.
