Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 251 Fighting
Dai County began to live a good life, and the nearby Yuanping also had disaster relief supplies, and began to recover a little bit of life. It seemed that the world was peaceful. However, this was the end of a dynasty after all. Fan Zhi was still shrouded in darkness.

This place can be regarded as wider than the past. Fanzhi is located between the northern mountain Hengshan and the famous Buddhist mountain Wutai Mountain. There are high mountains and dangerous mountains outside, and the Hutuo River Plain inside. The Yang family used to fight the Liao army here. The famous Pingxingguan Great Victory of later generations also took place on this land.

Later generations, relying on a one-day trip to Pingxingguan, the economy here has developed quite well, but now, following the universal rules, Fanzhi has also fallen into a serious social crisis.

Needless to say, the land is highly concentrated. The rich land cannot fit in one village, and two or three villages are connected. The poor can't even afford a house. There were thieves and thieves again, who robbed houses every now and then.Recently, there was a plague again, and the dead people went away. Tiantian county organized people to carry the corpses out early in the morning. The whole street disappeared, and several big pits were filled.

Illnesses come and go like a mountain, and the disease has caused many middle-class people to go bankrupt. There are more and more poor people, and the accumulated contradictions are like a big powder keg, which can be ignited at any time.

This kind of social crisis is like a bomb, a fuse will explode in the past. The out-of-control peasants have abandoned all feudal shackles and rushed to the landlord class one after another. Just like in many places in Shanxi now, Jin people have become The main body of the peasant uprising started a bloody fight with the armed forces of the government and landlords in various places.

Or, in another form, it exploded on others like a cannon. This was the case in Fanzhi County in November of the fifth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty.

"See those lights on the opposite side!"

There are as many as tens of thousands of Fanzhi clansmen carrying hoes, hammers, and even housewives carrying kitchen knives. All they have in common is that everyone's face is full of anger and a strong jealousy.

Standing on the hillside, the leading group of a dozen angry old youths also stood there with stern faces, especially the fat old man in silk in front, his face was flushed red, and his forehead was like countless earthworms crawling. Climbing like that, the voice is full of emotion, hissing and roaring with all his strength.

"Why do they live better and better on behalf of the people in the county? Why do people die every day from the plague here, and they don't die? The old man told you that they used Gu to do it! Transfer all the bad luck to our Fanzhi people In the head, get all the luck on yourself, seeing how much money they are making now, it should have made us proud!"

This reason is nonsense enough, but in this era of feudal superstition, there are people who really believe it, not only believe it, but believe it to the core, and as the old fat man raised his arms, he asked loudly: "What should we do?" Below 1 The poor and desperate people in the village near Wanduo hoarsely held up the thing and roared.

"Call over!"

"Fight with these monsters!"

"Killed to Dai County, pouring black dog blood broke their demon law!"

It’s really exciting, everyone’s heart is full of destructive desires, anyway, doing something, it’s better than starving and waiting to die now, seeing the flickering excitement, this old guy swung forward again His carrot hand.

"Go! Fight to pass!"

Clan fighting in China has always been of a long history, and it is even fierce. The degree of tragedy is not much less than that of foreign wars, but it is even worse. During the Warring States and Shang Yang's reforms, special orders were issued to prohibit private fighting, and those who violated the order cut!

However, the state of Qin has a noble system such as the twelve military merits, which can create benefits and stimulate the people through foreign wars. The subsequent dynasties and dynasties are not so fair. Naturally, this private fight has been repeatedly prohibited, especially at the end of the dynasty, in order to fight for water. Fighting for face, in order to divert the hatred of the tenant farmers under the inequality of the rich and the poor, private fighting has become a common occurrence.

It is said that Qi Jiguang's Qi family army recruited his famous army in Yiwu because he passed by Yiwu once and saw a large-scale fight broke out between Yiwu miners and neighboring counties in order to compete for mines. The fight lasted for more than four months. The two sides dispatched more than 3 person-times, and more than 600 people died in the fight, which shows that it was tragic.

The people of Fanzhi in this era don’t know how they are compared to the miners in Yiwu. Anyway, they are brave enough tonight. On the other hand, the nearby Zhujiazhuang in Fanzhi has just finished their hard work during the day, and the villagers have just gone to bed. After a while, countless torches came to the door, and the out-of-control Fanzhi clan rushed into the village screaming and cursing, and the hoes were smashed from house to house. The screams of being beaten.

With one bare foot, he crawled out from the arms of the concubine in the third room, and Master Zhu staggered out in the dark by himself.

"It's not good, it's not good!"

During the day, the Hutuo River Textile Factory has just opened, and the villagers are very lively. Many powerful families who brought gifts to congratulate stay here at night. This season, the little fat man also invited a famous Jin opera actor who is said to be from Datong, and was babbling there. While singing opera and everyone enjoying the village feast, a sloppy fat man jumped up with one bare foot, stood on the stage and pushed aside famous actors and yells. There was a weary hum of the squire below.

"Where did the beggar come from here to disturb the scene? Didn't you see that Mr. Liu is here in our county?" Someone shouted dissatisfied immediately. Coincidentally, this season's little fat man and this master Zhu still know each other, and they still have some festivals. Listening to those squires There were angry discussions, and he also yelled gloatingly.

"Isn't this our Zhuye? If you don't sleep in the arms of your newly married famous flower, why are you so interested in coming to our place to steal the show?"

"Oh, you still have the heart to listen to the show!" Master Zhu was really on fire, jumping on his feet and shouting sadly: "Fanzhi, those poor ghosts and lunatics have all hit us on the head of Dai County. It won't be long before they will also have to fight!" Broke your shit!"

"Who are you fooling around? It's not spring yet! Isn't it a grab for water?" Fatty Ji hummed disdainfully again, and Master Zhu was even more anxious when he heard it, patting his fat face with one hand and shouting.

"Why don't we really call at the door, would our old Zhu run over at night with bare feet and make you miserable? Call someone quickly! It's too late!"

At this time, the faces of the gentry below really changed, some of them hurried out, Fatty Ji was stunned for a while, and then spat fiercely in hatred.

"Damn it, at the beginning of this year's spring, those poor Fanzhi's hadn't had enough to suffer from the stick, and now this one has gone crazy and hit him again. It's really lighting a lantern in a latrine, looking for death?"

"Oh, Master Ji, now is not the time to complain!" My own Zhuangzi was about to be smashed, and this Master Zhu was as aggrieved as Yang Bai, patting his thigh and muttering: "Isn't Shuai Song here with you?" Is it? Tens of thousands of Fanzhi are here this time, hurry up and ask Shuai Song for help!"

The Hutuo River originates in the territory of Fanzhi. In the past few years, there has been a severe drought and the water supply has decreased. The people of the two counties have fought for water almost every year, and the accumulated hatred has also accumulated a lot. Now the people from Fanzhi are calling. Although it is a bit unexpected, But the gentlemen of Dai County are not in a panic.

On the contrary, Song Qingshu is now more important than fighting with weapons. Not to mention that the peasant army he brought is a group of kings of hell. Just recently he saved the plague and the lives of many people present. This popularity is not comparable to that of ordinary people Well, he didn't come to the show this time, which already made Fatty Ji feel uneasy. When he heard this, he immediately ran to the theater in a hurry.

This house repair already looks like a factory of later generations, and there is even this manager's office behind the labor workshop. Of course, it is called the shopkeeper these days. I really couldn't get interested, so I didn't even show my face at night, and stayed here all the time.

When Fatty Ji came, Song Qingshu was playing Go with Sun Chuanting by a solitary lamp. Don't look at Sun Chuanting's strategy, this game has seven apertures and six apertures, and he doesn't know anything. Song Qingshu is also an amateur among amateurs. Being together, it was a joy to kill, and Miao Mei couldn't see any signs of it, she was stunned for a while.

"Marshal, it's not good! Those poor people from the north are coming!"

"Shh!"

Before Ji Xiaofatty was sweating profusely, Song Qingshu had already put his finger on his mouth and made a movement of silence. The little fatty immediately froze there as if he had planted sunflower acupuncture points. Not daring to move, for a while, as if thinking of some wonderful chess, Song Qingshu dropped a sunspot heavily, and Sun Chuanting, who was playing chess, suddenly laughed.

"Good chess, handsome and good chess!"

In fact, what a fart!The dragon does not become a dragon, and the eyes do not achieve the goal, so the two stinky chess baskets were happy with each other, and killed more than a dozen lifeless sons of Sun Chuanting at once. Song Qingshu himself was complacent, and immediately waved to Miao Mei, who had been looking at it for a long time. .

"The hozen from the north is here, take the children to play with them, remember, don't be too harsh!"

I can't understand what I'm doing here, and I'm bored when I'm idle, Miao Mei is really as if she's been pardoned, she quickly bowed, and then pulled Fatty Ji, who was hit by the fixed body technique, and the two rushed out in a hurry .

Sun Chuanting didn't even look at the two of them, it seemed that his attention was all on the chessboard. Sun Chuanting, who had lost a position, was once again indecisive, while Song Qingshu was waiting there refreshed. voice.

"Oh, it's a disaster!"

…………

There are many strange things these days, the emperor is poor and the eunuchs are rich. The old and young men in Dai County who were dragged out heard that the water grabber next door was coming again, and they immediately felt like they had been beaten with chicken blood. In the middle of the night, the people from Fanzhi had just smashed the tortoise-like Zhu family compound. Tens of thousands of people in Dai County The clans also gathered together to welcome the past.

"Folks, we have the support of Marshal Song behind us, don't let these poor people laugh that we have no men in the county! Come on! Fuck him!!!"

This scene is like the morale bonus in the game. Seeing the village in my county being smashed by someone, this stupid son of an unknown landlord is chattering, and the men and women in Wandai County are not talking nonsense, and they roll up their arms. Just go up, see for a moment, a large group of hoes crashed, and the picks collided violently in mid-air. .

Miao Mei brought more than 2000 knives and poker players from the begging army, but now she was really lagging behind. In the black light, there were more than 2 people swearing at each other and twisting together, and the hoes and sticks were fierce. Shouting on the forehead, amidst the bang bang sound, a large group of people who had been opened scooped screamed and rolled into gourds. The men fought passionately, but they were not as good, and the women fought more ferociously.

Tear it together, pull hair, scratch face, tear clothes, more than a dozen women's magnificent hair are all entangled together, two-faced man tilted his head and hissed and dragged desperately to both sides, there was a man from Dai County It was too close, and was immediately caught by several women from Fanzhi, who pressed her on the ground to pick out her eyes, and then cut off her children and grandchildren's feet. Listening to the screams, Miao Mei, who was staring behind her in a daze, didn't stop for a long time knife to go.

"Hey, this old Xi'er is so desperate in battles? Fortunately, our commander-in-chief led us to take root. If we go together and fight together, the fight will be miserable!"

Seeing the old men in that generation county covered in blood, clutching their crotches and moving back miserably, Miao Mei also felt that the crotch was cold, and subconsciously clamped her legs.

The clan fight in Yiwu lasted for more than four months. It is still winter and the farm is slack. It is uncertain how long the fight will last. In the middle of the night, the two sides got entangled and fought non-stop, shouting loudly. Even the begging army had to move along with it. In the big camp under Dai County, batches of begging army soldiers rushed out with open fire, and even the old camp in the mountains was affected.

The footsteps of soldiers gathering resounded heavily and fiercely in the yard, mixed with the scolding and scolding sounds of the officers and leaders. The living quarters of Song Qingshu and the other beggar army leaders are next to the big playground, and they were exhausted even after a beauty sleep. A quarrel broke out, Li Gu'er yawned and went out wearing thick pajamas, standing on a small two-story building similar to later generations, looking down, just in time to see Hongniang Xing standing in the yard, putting on a suit of armor Putting it on his slim figure.

"Sister Hong, what's the matter? It's a wild night!"

"Some thieves came to the door to provoke, our man ordered the army to gather, my sister and I have to hurry up!"

I really doubt that Xing Hongniang was born with the wrong gender. Fighting is a game for men in this era, but she is so excited when she encounters a war. She buckles her armor and drags her spear to go out.

However, before she could leave the door, Hongniang Xing seemed to remember something, and ran back in a hurry, raising her head and urging the upstairs with concern.

"By the way, Sister Bao'er, tonight... probably won't be peaceful, so you and Caiwei must not go out!"

"Oh!" Rubbing those big eyes, Li Bao'er agreed in a daze...
