Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 582

"Let me tell you guys, Liu Ziyan will take back our land soon. Are we just sitting there waiting to die?"

In Qinghe County, a local tyrant said to everyone present.

Another squire asked suspiciously: "What is this Liu Ziyan going to do? He took back the land, and it was nothing more than distributing it to his meritorious ministers. The land in the hands of the big families in Jizhou accounted for ninety percent of the land. More than [-]%, he took it back, is the distribution over?"

"That's right, he took the field back, we don't cultivate it anymore, where does he go to collect taxes, what does he use to feed his army horses!"

The local tyrants talked a lot, and most people thought it was a rumor and couldn't be believed.

However, some people who understood stood up and said, "Why did he take back the land? Didn't he want to distribute it to the untouchables and let the untouchables cultivate it."

"What? Give it to the untouchables? That's not okay, I still expect this to squeeze those untouchables and let them work for me!"

Immediately, a squire roared.

"That's right, but what should we do now? I think Liu Wei is determined to take back our fields!"

A young man who had studied for several years and came from a wealthy family stood up and said: "If we sit and wait to die, the land of this family will definitely not be kept. Instead of waiting here to die, it is better for us to unite as one and hug each other. Gather all the gentry and local tyrants and squires in Jizhou, and use our power to oppose Liu Wei, and our teacher is famous, he Liu Wei forced Yuan Gong to death, we will use the name of revenge for King Jin to seize Take Liu Wei's prefectures and counties, kill Liu Wei, let's set up another master, what do you think!"

After the man finished speaking, someone immediately agreed and applauded: "Okay, let's do it like this. Instead of letting Liu Wei take over the land and live the days of starvation, it's better to fight Liu Wei and die." I also admit it!"

But some people didn't have the guts to object, "I'm afraid this won't work. Even the hundreds of thousands of troops in King Jin's hands were defeated by Liu Wei. How many people can we gather, and how many people can we gather?" They are all mobs with no fighting power at all!"

"Hmph! Timid and fearful, think back to those days, the Yellow Turban Thieves were also a mob. If Zhang Jiao hadn't died early, the world would have been surnamed Zhang long ago!"

A bold person waved his big hand in a high-spirited manner, which is quite similar to that.

"Don't do it recklessly. This matter should be discussed in the long term. If we are not prepared enough, I'm afraid we will be slaughtered by that Liu Wei before we act!"

An elder sitting in the first place spoke.

This person is also surnamed Yuan, if you talk about it, he and Yuan Shao still have some relatives, this person is already in his sixties, he has lived most of his life, he has experienced many things, so he is naturally considerate.

After hearing what the old man said, everyone became quiet and looked at the old man.Someone said: "Mr. Yuan is from the family of the King of Jin, and everyone listens to Mr. Yuan!"

I saw the old Yuantou standing up with a cane, and then said: "I can understand your anxiety, you are anxious, and I am also anxious. It's just that I want you young people to make trouble, but our Yuan family has thousands of hectares of land, which were accumulated by my Yuan family's ancestors from generation to generation. I can't let them ruin it in my hands, so , this old man swears, even if all members of my Yuan family die, it is absolutely impossible to give him the land to Liu Wei!"

After a pause, the old Yuantou said again: "But we can't be reckless. Liu Wei is a demon king who kills people without blinking an eye and eats people without spit out bones. If we want to drive him away from Jizhou, we have to make a long-term plan. But this time can't be short, because Liu Weigang has occupied Jizhou, and his foothold is not stable!"

Immediately afterwards, the old man clapped his hands, and immediately someone brought a pen and paper and handed it to Old Yuan Tou.

Old Yuantou said, "I've prepared the form of alliance a long time ago. Since everyone wants to fight against Liu Wei, they should all press bloody fingerprints on the form of alliance!"

As he spoke, the old man picked up a dagger beside him, cut his index finger, and pressed the first bloody handprint on the paper.

"Come, come, everyone, press your fingerprints!"

With that said, the old Yuantou handed over the form of alliance to the next person.

Everyone bit or scratched their fingers one by one, and pressed their fingers on the form of alliance.

At this time, someone will ask, aren't there still people who are unwilling to rebel, have they also pressed their finger prints?
Can you not press it? Most people are willing to rebel and press their finger prints. Although they don’t want to press it, so many people look at them. If they don’t press it, those people are afraid that they will leak the secret. Their heads are not guaranteed.You have to press if you don't want to.In addition, they are also unwilling to hand over their family property in their hearts, so if they grit their teeth and set their hearts aside, the opposite will happen. At worst, they will die. If they succeed, what awaits them is prosperity and wealth!
After everyone had done their fingerprints, Lao Yuantou took the covenant and counted them. A total of [-] people had their fingerprints.Nodding in satisfaction, he put away the form of alliance, and said again: "It's impossible for us to raise troops against Liu. Therefore, after everyone goes back, they will contact the gentry, local tyrants and gentry in other counties and counties. , find some reliable people, and bring them in. All of us have money to contribute money, food to provide food, and someone to provide people. We will deal with Liu Wei together. After Liu Wei is killed, we all share the glory and wealth. Now I Let’s temporarily assume the position of leader, but it’s obvious to everyone how old I am this year. When Liu Wei is driven away, I’ll go home to live for the rest of my life. This Hebei is yours! Let's enjoy together!"

"Okay! Mr. Yuan is right. We will definitely get rid of Liu Wei!"

"Yes, yes, let's go back and take out our wealth, recruit people, form an army, and then gather all the local tyrants and gentry in Jizhou who oppose Liu Wei to make a big event together!"

After the crowd clamored for a long time, it gradually dispersed.

After returning home, they took out their wealth to buy weapons and armor, and recruited manpower. Some of them could gather one or two thousand soldiers, and some of them could gather three to five hundred soldiers and horses. But they were afraid that something would happen, so they hid their soldiers and horses in the mountains and woods. .

At the same time, most of the local tyrants and gentry in Jizhou have arrived in Qinghe County. The news that the local tyrants and gentry have secretly recruited troops has also received their letters, and they have responded one after another. Raise troops to respond.
