Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2158 Guanzhong Hong Furnace

  Tonight is extraordinarily long.

  In the land of Sansuke, in many counties and counties, countless flames were ignited.

  Among the raging flames, some shouted and fought, and some were at a loss. Even many refugees were alarmed because of this, and they were confused and didn't know what to do.

  Some villages were breached, flames were everywhere, the sound of crying continued, and thick smoke wrapped in black ash drifted around. If it weren't for the end of the autumn harvest and the approaching winter, these fires would burn the whole country into charcoal!

In the flickering fire, some people will always be controlled by greed in their hearts, and start to fish in troubled waters, take advantage of the fire to rob, and carry out zero-yuan purchase activities. Those whose eyes were red and their hearts were darkened, were fighting and scrambling for goods in the flames. From time to time, they heard screams and blood splattered...

  When human nature shrinks, animal nature is magnified.

   Chaos spread, and the sound of shouting and fighting overwhelmed the sound of fire, crackling, explosion and burning in a blink of an eye.

Countless people wrestled into a ball, some were stepped into the mud with their hands full of treasures, some ran away desperately after grabbing some, some hacked and killed indiscriminately with red eyes, and every time they killed a person, Go to break off the fingers of the dead body, collect the treasures on the body, no matter what you catch, just put it in your arms.

  The wealth in Guanzhong has made many people jealous.

  When there is order, it’s just swallowing your saliva and fantasizing about it, but under "full freedom", the original fantasies can be put into practice...

The market is broken and settled, and there is nothing good except being brave and ruthless. I ate food today, but I don’t know where tomorrow’s food will be. When they thought about the yellow and white things in their hearts, it was the ecstasy from the heart, which made their faces almost distorted.

  However, these people are not the focus of all the riots, or even just some inconspicuous ripples.

   But those who really stir up wind and rain and strangle flesh and blood will never be these people who participate in zero-yuan purchases.

  『Besides this way, there is no other choice! 』

"But…"

  『There is no other way! If we just stop here, our lives may be saved, but the family property will be wiped out! 』

  『"Juetian Law" is like poisonous wine. Although drinking it can live for a while, it will surely die! 』

  『At that time, under the underworld, how can anyone see their ancestors again? ! 』

  『The death of the Bian family means the chaos in Yanzhou, and the death of the Zang family means the collapse of the Yuan family! If the hussars don't know the lessons learned from the past, they will fall straight into **** together! 』

  『There are many bitter hussars in Guanzhong! Now that you and I have revealed the pole, it is Yun Ying! 』

  『The hussars go against the sky, and the sky punishes them! We will do justice for the heavens, righteousness is in hand! 』

  『Wait, wait...If you do it, this...if the hussars are turning, how will you deal with it? 』

  『This matter has been planned a long time ago...Everyone, let’s see...』

  哗啦啦A map was displayed under the light and fire, with ink drawn vertically and horizontally on it, like scars, twisting and wriggling between light and darkness.

  『The hussars and horses are scattered all over the place... Now that the army is out, Guanzhong is actually controlled by you and me! Among Lin Jin, there is a certain person...why be surprised? I believe the same is true for you in other counties...』

  『Cough cough...Brother, continue, continue...』

  『Now the incident happened suddenly, under the chaos, especially the big hussars are not seen. From this, it can be seen that some soldiers from Longyou and Beibei were transferred from Guanzhong! Why should we be afraid of such soldiers? The hussars and horses are indeed strong, but far away from the water, it is difficult to save the fire near the fire. Even if the hussars got the news and returned immediately, it would become a monstrous force, so what can they do? ! 』

"What's more, I have an old relationship with the general... If we mobilize, the general will go all the way to Hedong, break the way of Pingyang to the south, occupy Chang'an all the way, and return to Juewu Pass, and the hussars will be wandering outside. tree! It's an instant to fall apart! What is there to be afraid of? At that time, you and I will both be heroes, enough to last for a hundred years, to benefit our descendants! 』

  『Hiss…』

   A group of people fell silent.

  Among the flames, whichever map is swaying, it seems that everyone's hearts are also swaying.

The reason why the gentry is strong is that they control almost all the key departments in the local area, from local administration to law enforcement, from taxation to population. In many cases, even the newly appointed local officials need to look at the faces of the local gentry Otherwise, even the basic operation cannot be carried out.

   It is precisely because these big gentry families have gained too much power in the three or four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, it is not so easy to let them down now...

   Then these people feel more and more amazing.

  Cao Cao rebelled in Yanzhou.

  Even Yuan Shao, the so-called model leader of the gentry, had Zang Hong's rebellion.

   Not to mention that Sun Dadi sat on the stove for many years, and his face was purple from the heat.

  Then, will the Hussar ride here be smooth and stable?

  It's impossible, especially when these people feel that they have finally seized a chance.

  Many people in later generations couldn't understand why the big gentry were so arrogant in the Han Dynasty. They often thought that as long as their own butcher's knife was used in one fell swoop, all the people would submit, but in reality? In feudal dynasties, isn't it not uncommon for local gentry to override national laws?

  History said: "There is a big family making wine, Jia Yuliang. Yuzhi said, "The effect of my wine is that no disease can invade it." Everyone believed it, and there were a lot of buyers. However, those who have the discomfort of drinking will keep it secret. Some people in Jiaozhou were very suspicious and denounced it as poison. The big family was angry, and the officials of Liang County set up dispatches, traveled thousands of miles, arrested the people of Jiaozhou, punished their crimes, and appeased the big family's anger. 』

  『Things are not secret, they must be leaked. The people were angry, and criticisms were boiling. The superior also knew it, asked him three times why, and the officials of Liang County talked about him from left to right. Three months after being handed over to the people and prisoners, Fang Shi was panicked like a frightened bird. A few months later, everyone forgot about it, and the big family brewed and sold wine as before. 』

The reason why the big gentry can override the law and even replace the law with their own wishes is because the cost of breaking the law for a big gentry is extremely low. The big gentry themselves are the ruling class in feudal society and belong to the protected object, so how can they be easily accepted? damage? I didn't hear some officials shouting openly, whoever makes the big family unhappy, will he make anyone unhappy? Therefore, it is not surprising that there are 2630 violations in ten years, and it is still safe. Some people even said that they should look at the problem from the perspective of development, "don't stare at other people's past".

Secondly, the big Han under the county system, for the local administrative constraints and their lack, often the court can only issue edicts to reprimand, but the edicts, the local agencies can pretend that they have not seen, heard, or received it, and wait for it to be done. When everything was almost done, he let out a yell, so there was an imperial edict, why didn't he say it earlier?

   Another important point is that sometimes more than 60% of the taxes paid by local officials to the court, and even more come from a certain big family. Will the local officials fight against the local big family? Obviously impossible.

On the one hand, if the local officials really did this, not to mention the past, the failure to achieve performance after several consecutive years is not only a county problem, but also involves the entire county. Do the officials pay the bill?

On the other hand, even if the top iron official really manages to deal with the local big family, and has a way to solve the tax problem within the term of office, then when his term of office is about to expire and he wants to be transferred to another place, the next local big family will have nothing to do. As, are you even welcome to do it? It must be doing everything possible to kill this tough guy first...

   Therefore, it is actually very troublesome to really deal with some big local households.

Just like when Pang Tong wants to deal with these small groups that raise food prices, it is naturally impossible to use local law enforcement agencies to arrest them, because this is often ineffective, and he can only mobilize troops across counties, that is, use soldiers from Longyou to attack them. Put out the evil fire of Guanzhong Sansuke. The soldiers of Longyou belonged to Longyou, and they obeyed Longyou's assignment, and left after finishing their work, without any taint of cause and effect, and naturally moved swiftly.

  But it was precisely because the number of soldiers transferred in the initial stage was a bit small, on the contrary, these big households felt that the counterattack of Pang Tong and others was too weak, completely different from what they expected, and even had an opportunity...

  『So... Hangu Pass is a jeopardy for military strategists, even if it is a general... how can it be easily passed? 』

  『Hehe...you don’t know, there is a secret passage in Hangu Pass, you can pass it lightly without using weapons...』

  『Really? ! 』

  『If it weren’t for this, how could someone lightly say that this would happen? 』

"so…"

   Everyone looked at each other, as if some flames were reflected in their pupils...

  …(`dish)(`dish)(`dish)(`dish)…

   There is a mountain in the south of Linjin, named Jing, and there is a military camp on the side of Jingshan.

  The disturbance in Linjin was like the wind blowing to the Jingshan camp, making the camp unavoidably agitated.

   There are four songs near Jingshan Mountain in Jin Dynasty, led by an army Sima.

  In the middle of the night, a messenger who escaped from Linjin County took advantage of the chaos and brought orders from Linjin officials to let these soldiers go to Linjin and obey Ma's arrangement...

   It would be okay if there was only this order, but before there were several hussars who went outside the camp to announce the order.

  The order brought by the hussar soldiers was to let the soldiers of the Jingshan barracks stand by and not move without authorization!

  The two completely opposite orders immediately made the soldiers in the Jingshan barracks confused, and many middle and lower-level military academy non-commissioned officers found Zhao Qilang. Zhao Qilang is just a song leader, but he is a veteran in the Jingshan camp, and sometimes he even speaks better than the military Sima.

Zhao Qilang is a generous man, and he often invites his friends to eat with money, but whenever someone asks Zhao Qilang for a loan, Zhao Qilang always donates money without saying a word, and never urges him to pay back the debt, so everyone in the army When mentioning Zhao Qilang, everyone gave him a thumbs up.

   But the problem is that Zhao Qilang was originally from a poor background, and his family didn't have a gold mine, so where did his money come from?

  This question, some people really didn’t think about it at all, some people thought about it but couldn’t think of it, and some people already knew it but pretended not to know it…

   Taking money from others naturally needs to eliminate disasters with others.

  Now Zhao Qilang's complexion inevitably turned a little grim, and he completely lost his usual kind appearance.

Wang Chang sent people to order the people in the Jingshan camp to stay put and not to move without an order, because any fool would know that there must be local aboriginals who have worked **** these county soldiers near Jingshan in Linjin. I don't know how many people have been hooked up in the dark. If they rush out, can it be said otherwise? If they lose their restraint a little, and suddenly explode at some critical moments, it may hinder the overall situation!

  So simply use only the soldiers from Longyou, and none of the soldiers from the counties where these incidents happened.

  When Zhao Qilang was silent, he didn't know where he was in the camp, suddenly several people shouted in unison: "In Linjin City are our food and clothing parents!" Now that the people are in chaos and their parents are worried, how can we just sit back and watch? ! If you are a coward on this occasion, how can you have the face to meet Lin Jin's elders the next day? ! 』

  As soon as this roar came out, it overwhelmed other voices, and more and more people began to join in. For a while, the camp was full of boiling water, as if it was about to explode.

  Jun Sima also heard the voice, hurried over, saw Zhao Qilang and others gathered together, frowned immediately, pointed his halberd and shouted, "Zhao Qilang! You are equal to this, what do you want? ! Why don't you go back quickly and suppress the subordinates? ! If something goes wrong, you are the only one to ask! 』

  Zhao Qilang's thoughts changed. If it is said that the hussars army is turning around and everything is well prepared, there will be no situation where anyone can run out to send a message to the camp. If someone in Linjin can run out, it means that Linjin is not completely controlled by hussars. You can become an important weight to turn the balance of Linjin!

  In case my backer falls, even if I obediently stay in the barracks without acting rashly, will someone reward me for it? Certainly not, and at the same time, after the backer collapsed, his source of money would be cut off. At that time, everyone inside and outside the camp, but anyone who owed him money would definitely become his family's enemy!

  How shameful and despicable he was when he borrowed money before, how cruel he must be in the future!

   You can not only beat the dog in the water, but also forgive your debts in a fair and honest manner. If it were Zhao Qilang himself, he would definitely be willing to do it!

  So, the only thing we can do now is to give it a try!

   Little people have the criteria for judging little people. It is impossible for Zhao Qilang to know the overall situation, he can only make inferences based on his own experience, but most of the time these experiences are limited to his own, so there are often problems...

   It's just that Zhao Qilang doesn't think there is anything wrong with his idea now.

  Seeing that Jun Sima was going to blame him directly, Zhao Qilang no longer hesitated, and raised his arms and called out: "Now that Jin's father and elders are in trouble, how can we sit idly by?" ! It is our bounden duty to get rid of the bandits and chaos and calm the land! After the chaos to be determined, there will be great rewards! 』

  Following Zhao Qilang, all the confidantes he had beckoned had already been gearing up. At this time, after hearing Zhao Qilang yelling, they also yelled together, and their faces were a little fierce and terrifying.

  To cut off one's fortune is to kill one's parents.

  My parents were killed, so naturally it was a sworn enemy!

Whether Hushi is a good person or a good leader is not so important at this moment. In the eyes of Zhao Qilang and people like Zhao Qilang, whoever blocks his way of making money is different. Dai Tian's enemy!

  Jun Sima's face turned pale, he didn't expect Zhao Qilang to be so decisive, and even turned against him on the spot!

  Jun Sima didn't say anything, and immediately retreated!

  But Zhao Qilang didn't allow him to go. Seeing Jun Sima retreating, he immediately rushed forward, fished his hand into his boot, and pulled out a sharp short blade, stabbing Jun Sima's chest and abdomen.

  Jun Sima escaped the fatal blow, but couldn't dodge the follow-up attack, so he had to kick with his feet, but Zhao Qilang slashed his thigh fiercely. He couldn't bear the pain immediately, and fell to the ground.

  Army Sima's guard stepped forward and stopped Zhao Qilang, saying, "Okay! He is wounded and will not stop you. 』

  Zhao Qilang frowned, "You are..."

  『My surname is Ma...』 Said the guard of Army Sima.

  Zhao Qilang slowly wiped away the blood on the dagger, then looked at the pale Jun Sima, "Then...he..."

  『He’s too timid... 』 Said the military guard Sima, 『It seems that you are more courageous than him...』

  『Wealth and honor can only be found in danger! Zhao Qilang backed away, then turned his head and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze, if you have the guts, hurry up and prepare your armor, and ask me for a fortune!" 』

  Zhao Qilang's confidantes immediately scattered, and flew to take up soldiers and lead horses, and the camp was in a mess with people shouting and neighing. Some people coerced unsuspecting soldiers around them to act with them, some followed in a daze, and some sneaked into the corners of the camp, not wanting to participate in the chaos.

  In the barracks, the armor was naturally ready-made, and in a blink of an eye these people were fully dressed and gathered in one place.

  Zhao Qilang originally wanted to kill Jun Sima, mostly for the sake of gaining prestige, but since he is also a fellow man now, there is no need to be cruel again.

  If it succeeds this time, it means that the powerful stance maintained by the original hussars actually has flaws. If it fails, then the only option is death. Well, maybe, at worst, you can escape...

   Anyway, it's better than waiting to die in the camp.

Amidst the shouts, a group of rebel soldiers got on their horses, Zhao Qilang and other confidantes, together with those who were coerced by him at the moment, there were more than hundreds of riders, roaring and rushing through the already opened camp gate, heading towards Linjin gallop away!

   Hussars are heavily paid to support the army, but they are also divided into ranks. The ones directly under Fei Qian are naturally the highest, followed by the generals of the major military regions, and then the general hussars. Although these county soldiers are actually paid by the hussars, they are actually paid by the county itself. .

In addition, before the hussars took charge of the Guanzhong Sanfu, there were more or less county soldiers in various places. Of course, it is impossible for these soldiers to be dismantled after the hussar Feiqian came. Now, it is normal to show alienation or rebellion.

  Of course, in most cases, if Zhao Qilang and others did not intentionally manipulate and confuse, most of the soldiers in these counties and counties would also guard their camps peacefully...

And in Sansuke in Guanzhong, if there is a falcon looking down from a high altitude, you can see that there are countless flames swaying on the land of Sansuke, as if the original good scar was torn apart again. open, blood flowed out...

   And pus.

  The land of Sansuke in Guanzhong, this piece of land that had begun to decay a hundred years ago, the cancerous tumors and pus buried under it finally rushed out!
