I was pulling trees in Daming, and Lao Zhu begged me to come out of retirement

Chapter 84 Zhu Yuanzhang's Fame
The so-called opening of the river in the Yuan Dynasty was actually to bring the Yellow River back to its original course.

According to the design of water conservancy expert Jia Lu, the laborers had to dig from Huanglinggang (Lankaodong, Henan) south to Baimao Dike and west to Yangqing Village, deepen the 280-li river channel, and then bring the Yellow River back to its original course into the sea.

Many people thought that Prime Minister Tuotuo opened the river for the sake of the people affected by the disaster. Since he was a famous official with clean governance, he was determined to solve this hidden danger for the Yuan Dynasty.

In reality, the flooding of the Yellow River destroyed the salt fields along the river, causing a significant reduction in the salt tax revenue of the salt merchants along the Yellow River and the country.

This is the real reason why Tuotuo opened the river.

The imperial court ordered the conscription of 25 laborers, but only 17 were actually conscripted. Now, after a month of devastation, there are only 15 laborers left on the entire construction site.

In just one month, nearly 20,000 people died on the construction site.

This may be a small number compared to the more than one million starving families and more than five million disaster victims caused by natural disasters.

However, these 15 laborers were gathered together. The supervisors beat and brutalized the workers, withheld their food rations, and beat and scolded them at will, which made the workers resentful and unable to bear it any longer.

An atmosphere of resentment and anger enveloped the entire river control site.

These migrant workers who left their individual farming households and gathered on the banks of the Yellow River became the most convenient civilian base for launching the Red Turban uprising.

And now, the departure of Jialu and Chelibuhua has brought this resentment to its peak.

Another citizen who couldn't stand the hunger came to the supervisor and knelt down:
"Sir, please give me some food. I really can't hold on any longer."

The greasy-mouthed supervisor looked at the skinny laborer with disgust and cursed:

"Get lost! Didn't we just distribute porridge at noon? You are a bunch of lowly people and you are still not satisfied. Get lost! Otherwise, I will let you fill the river like those troublemakers a few days ago!"

The migrant worker's eyes turned red when he thought of the bland porridge he had had at noon. He looked at the roast chicken next to the supervising official, let out an inhuman roar, and then pounced on him.

The official was frightened by the civilians.
When he came to his senses, he saw the other person holding his roast chicken and eating it frantically, and he immediately became furious.
"How dare you! Someone, come! Kill him for me!"

However, this time, he did not wait for soldiers, but a pair of scarlet eyes like those of wild beasts.

"What are you doing? Are you going to rebel? Get out of here right now!"

The supervisor looked at the people who were surrounding him with a timid look on his face, and they were becoming more and more panicked.
When he caught a glimpse of the officers and soldiers being beaten to death in the distance, his whole body trembled like a sieve.

It's over,

At this moment, the supervisor only had these two words in his mind.

Without hesitation, he turned around and fled madly in the direction away from the construction site. However, before he had taken a few steps, a crossbow arrow fell from the sky and pierced his forehead.

The migrant workers were shocked.
He looked in the direction where the arrow came from with horror.
They thought that those officers and soldiers had returned, but now they would be torn into pieces for their actions.

However, the army that came towards them was not the Yuan Dynasty's army.

Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a diamond suit, while Xu Da and Tang He were wearing gold suits and appeared on the river bank.

"The gods have come down to earth to save the common people! They have slaughtered the Yuan dogs and are invincible!"

"Those who believe in science will have eternal life! Those who believe in science will reach paradise!"

A deafening roar followed, and tens of thousands of troops continued to appear on both sides of the river, leaving the civilians below stunned.

Zhu Yuanzhang faced the sun, his diamond suit emitting sparkling colorful light, and he seemed to be completely deified at this moment.

The people below knelt on the ground excitedly, shouting unconsciously:

"God! It really is a god!"

Zhu Yuanzhang once again proved that in this era metaphysics is always more useful than science.

The recruitment of 150,000 migrant workers went more smoothly than Zhu Yuanzhang had imagined.
A wave of gods descended to earth, plus the ability to turn void into food (taking food from boxes) directly increased the faith values ​​of this group of civilians to the maximum.

Especially when they learned that the two collapsed river embankments had been repaired by the messengers of the gods, they were completely loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang and others.

In addition, they had previously taken action against the supervising officials, cutting off their own escape route, so Zhu Yuanzhang easily recruited these 15 civilians.

This time when he came out of seclusion, Zhu Yuanzhang directly gathered more than 20 troops to establish a revolutionary army.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not hesitate at all and led the revolutionary army directly towards Ruzhou, Runing, Guangzhou and other counties.

The revolutionary army was invincible wherever it went.
The Yuan Dynasty officials were terrified by the news of killing officials, opening granaries, and seizing the property of landowners and wealthy businessmen. Before the army even arrived at the city, a group of people had already fled.

For a time, Zhu Yuanzhang and his revolutionary army became famous.

At the same time, people from all over the country were greatly encouraged by Zhu Yuanzhang's reputation.

Many counties and districts responded by taking up arms in the name of the Celestial God Church and the Scientology Church.
There were also quite a few members of the White Lotus Sect who flattered Tianyu and said that he was also their god, and they established a part of the Red Turban Army.

But this time the Red Turban Army's power was obviously not as strong as in history.

It is clear that the Tianshen Sect, which was only spread in the Huaixi area, was divided 64 with the Red Turban Army composed of the White Lotus Sect.

At this time in Taoyuan Township,

Above a colorful floating stage, spotlights illuminate people's faces in flickering light.

A DJ stood on a high platform holding a speaker and shouted loudly:

"Come on~ Draw a dragon with me on the left, and a rainbow on the right~"

"Come on~ Draw me a rainbow on the right~ and draw a dragon on the left~"

"Make a gesture of Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty on your chest and shake your head left and right~"

A group of villagers below were jumping around on the dance floor and were having a blast.

Tianyu sat on the sofa at the edge with a look of emotion on his face.

The nightclub that I never went to in my previous life was now visited by myself.

He originally intended to make guns, but accidentally made a stone suspension lamp.

This thing is a product of the industrial revolution after the version update, but surprisingly it only requires redstone energy to activate it.

Combined with the clock circuit and stereo speakers, Tianyu built the first nightclub disco in Taoyuan Township.

At first, the villagers were a little confused about this new era of entertainment.

However, with the popularity of a series of DJ square dances such as the most dazzling ethnic style and above the moon, this nightclub disco, which claims to be the best in the city, has become one of the most popular facilities in Taoyuan Township.

But in Tianyu's opinion, these people are still too conservative.

Why are there only grown men here, but very few girls and women?

And even if they come, they are wrapped up like dumplings. Who are they looking down on?

So many years of compulsory education have not changed their thinking.

Tianyu sighed as he picked up a plate of puffer fish sashimi.
After eating the delicious puffer fish fillet, the scene in his vision began to shake like the world spinning.

He skillfully picked up a glass of milk and poisoned it, and the pufferfish toxin was instantly eliminated.

"Hiss~Comfortable~This is life~"

Tianyu groaned and wondered if he should go out and hire a few ragged young ladies to do pole dancing.

However, considering the criticism from the moralists, Tianyu had to give up the idea.

It would be more legitimate to wait until Zhu Yuanzhang rises to power and then let him get a few Hu concubines for him.

Evil feudal society... bah... five thousand years of traditional culture, Tianyu feels that he should support it.

A hero's elders once said that with great power comes great responsibility.

In this era where women have a low social status, Tianyu feels that he should save more women who are suffering...

Just as Tianyu's mind was wandering with DJ,
The third sister hurriedly pushed the door open and said excitedly:

"Master Tianyu, Brother Chongba and the others succeeded!"
