Go back to the Three Kingdoms to grow vegetables

Chapter 34
On the night of February [-]nd, the members of the Liu clan who had just celebrated the completion ceremony of Wubao were awakened by shouts one after another in the darkness before they fell asleep. The fire in the village gathering was shining like a will-o'-the-wisp, and I could vaguely hear the cry of Xiang Zhan: "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky will stand; the year is Jiazi, and the world will be blessed. Kill!"

As time passed, more and more will-o'-the-wisps gathered around, and the shouts became louder and louder.At dawn, groups of peasants holding torches appeared under the wall of Wubao with their families. Hundreds of members of the Liu clan stood guard on the wall of Wubao with their mulberry bows pointed at the city and gathered together. farmers.

There is no yellow turban touching the forehead that is the signature of the Yellow Turban Thieves, just simple farmers, want to shoot them all?Liu Bei looked at the farmer in front of him at a loss. If it was Taiping Road or bandits, Liu Bei's entanglements might be less.

"My fellow Liushiwubao has corn that is as good as ten thousand stones. If you capture Liushiwubao, you won't have to starve this winter!"

A man in thin clothes was holding a stick in his hand and shouting loudly.

Wanshi's grain, some wild vegetables in one shi's grain can barely feed a family of four for a month (in the case of not starving to death), how many years will Wanshi have to eat?The invasion of the Xianbei slaves robbed the farmers of Youbing and the two prefectures of even the last bit of surplus grain. The farmers who originally only wanted to come to Liushiwubao to find a way to survive this winter heard that there were thousands of stones of grain in Liushiwupu immediately. With red eyes, he waved the sticks, hoes and other things in his hand and shouted loudly: "Break the Wubao and distribute the food for the winter."

"Brother Ahu, do you want to shoot an arrow?"

Liu Zhong looked at the densely packed human heads under the wall of Wubao, and was so frightened by the shouting Wang Yang crowd that his whole body trembled even his voice trembled a little.

The endless sea of ​​people seems to merge with the night, like a beast staring at Liu's Wubao, as long as there is a slight flaw, it will not hesitate to pounce on Liu's Wubao and tear it to pieces.

"hold on!"

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the water vapor condensed into frost, and bean-sized beads of sweat flowed down Liu Bei's forehead one after another. The great grandfather watched the people Wang Yang defeat the bald aircraft, artillery and tanks. At this moment, the people Wang Yang led by the great virtuous teacher could not Can't we deal with only four or five hundred farmers holding mulberry bows?For the first time, Liu Bei lost confidence in his suppression of the peasant uprising.

"Break the Wubao and distribute food for the winter."

The shouting lasted for a quarter of an hour before it stopped slowly. A big man with a forehead and a yellow scarf riding a donkey appeared under the torch surrounded by some young and strong. He looked at Liu Bei on the wall and shouted: "Liu Tingchang? Mr. Zhu Lei is right! I came here today to inquire about the right and wrong of a certain wish. It is because the fellow villagers cannot survive, so I ask Liu Tingzhang to give me a bite of food for the sake of fellow neighbors. We will leave Liu's Wubao immediately after we are full. Never stay longer."

Finally someone broke the silence, Liu Bei relieved from the panic of the people Wang Yang, and quietly said to Liu Zhiran beside him: "Take aim at the leader and kill him with my gestures."

"Yes."

Liu Zhiran was taken aback for a moment, and then responded, "Since the Xianbei slaves left, Liu Bei has trained the members of the Liu clan through military training, and the executive power of the Liu clan has greatly improved.

"Zhu Qushuai, hello to the great virtuous teacher on behalf of me! I really want to agree to your proposal, but I really don't have so much food, not to mention there are so many old and young women and children in the castle open their mouths to eat?"

Zhu Leigong opened his mouth and defined Liu Bei as oppressing rural officials, and Liu Bei also defined him as the way of peace.The great virtuous and good teachers are the spiritual pillars on top, and the help to the people of Zhuojun is just medicine, but Liu Bei recruits a lot of young and strong people nearby to work, and the wages distributed really make the people of Zhuojun live a good life for a few days.

At the top of the city, some leading figures from various villages who were accepted by Liu Beixin also called their friends: "Grandpa, Ahu gives us ten buckets of grain every day, and there are more than a thousand villagers who work every day, so there is still so much surplus food." Ah! Don't listen to the rumors of the demon way!"

"Stop trying to confuse the crowd with demonic words. It's obvious that you want to avenge Liu Ji, so you have the guts to do it yourself! Why do you want to encourage the villagers to die?"

"Uncle Nine, Ahu has the strength to kill hundreds of Xianbei slaves in one night. Are you stronger than Xianbei slaves in our village?"

"..."

Sure enough, the leading figures in the villages on the city wall did not disappoint Liu Bei, and they tried to persuade the people in their own village.As early as when accepting the construction of Wubao by the young and strong in other villages, Liu Bei often gathered influential people from various villages together. Let your own dock reduce the pressure of some peasant troops.

The persuasion of the younger generation really played a big role. The short-sighted and soft-hearted peasant uncles started talking about it one after another. Zhu Leigong saw that the people's hearts he had managed to gather were disintegrated by Liu Bei's few words, and he shouted: "Everyone don't Believe Liu Ahu's nonsense, in the past two or three months, more than a dozen carts of corn have been transported here from all over the world, how can there be no food in Wubao?"

A white-haired old man said: "But the younger generation takes back ten buckets of corn every day?"

"Uncle, you have been deceived by Liu Ahu!"

Compared with Zhu Leigong who joined the Taiping Road, Uncle Uncle obviously believes in his nephew more.

Zhu Leigong regretted why he didn't attack the city in one go just now, why did he want to recruit Liu Bei?It was useless to regret, Zhu Leigong said cruelly: "Uncle, we will not be able to cook for a day! If we don't get food tomorrow, some people will starve to death! Compared with the tall city walls of Zhuocheng, is Liushiwubao in front of us? Easier to attack?"

Uncle opened his mouth but didn't say anything. Tens of thousands of people are waiting to open their mouths to eat?He couldn't help being kind.

Seeing Uncle Zhu approaching him again, Zhu Leigong not only showed a smug smile on his face, he raised the wooden stick in his hand and was about to shout: "Siege the city." A sharp arrow pierced the night sky and pierced straight into Zhu Leigong's body in the throat.

Well!Zhu Leigong fell off the donkey holding his bleeding throat, and the big man beside Zhu Leigong was also taken care of by the Liu clan.

"Qu Shuai was shot by Liu Ahu! Take revenge for Qu Shuai!"

The believers of Taiping Dao who woke up from the tragic scene of the people around Zhu Leigong being shot into sieves shouted loudly. Several bamboo arrows were shot down from the wall and stuck in him. disaster.

Although the members of the Liu clan on the wall had been specially ordered by Liu Bei to shoot and kill those who encouraged people, there were fish that slipped through the net after all, and the densely packed crowd finally surged towards the Wubao under the stimulation of blood.

Liu Bei tightly clenched his big hands in his long sleeves, and said loudly, "Shoot and kill indiscriminately in rapid succession."

Bamboo arrows fell like rain on the Wubao wall, and the farmers with numb eyes who just wanted a full meal approached the Wubao wall fearlessly.

The continuous rain of arrows made the members of the Liu clan exhausted, and also caused most of the Taiping Dao believers who took the lead to be killed or injured. It is unknown who was the first to turn around and run away with a roar like a madman. The farmers turned around and disappeared into the night sky in front of the rain of arrows. middle.

Liu Bei finally won the first victory in suppressing the peasant uprising with the endless bamboo arrows in the farm and the rough preparation in advance.
