Chapter 191: Creating a Peasant Uprising(1/2)
Qin Xiaogong's territory, Qingshi Village, is a second-level village with a population of about 300 households. It is said to be big or small.
The night is like a thick ink inkstone, so deep that it is difficult to melt.
The village’s simple land temple often cried out, breaking the quiet night, making the villagers creepy. Many villagers covered their children’s mouths and prevented them from crying.
"It seems like there are foxes entering the Land Temple. Look at me to catch them."
A bold hunter wants to catch foxes alive, which is the material for weaving fox furs and can be exchanged for a lot of food.
"Iron Pillar, this is the fox fairy, don't go out!"
The village woman stopped the hunter and begged hard.
"Woman with long hair and short knowledge, get out of the way. If we get a few pairs of complete furs, we will not be hungry this year!"
Although the hunter also thought that the sound of fox cries from the Land Temple at this time seemed a bit strange, but people died for money and birds died for food. He really didn't want to miss the opportunity to get fox fur.
The hunter carefully opened the wooden door, held the hunting bow, groped in the mud walls in the village, and approached the Land Temple.
As we approached the Land Temple, the fox's screams became clearer and clearer, which was somewhat similar to the human voice.
"Are these foxes transformed?"
The hunter's heart was beating faster and his palms were sweating, so he could not move another step.
He had hunted all his life and had never encountered such a strange situation.
Suddenly, next to the Land Temple, a blue ghost fire appeared and swayed in the air, which was extremely terrifying.
In the gloomy and terrifying forest, the mountain wind whistles, like ghosts crying and wolf howling.
"ah!!!"
The hunter no longer dared to think about the fox fur. He was so scared that he collapsed on the ground, turned around and struggled to crawl towards his hut.
All the villagers in Qingshi Village were awakened by the screams of hunters, and they heard strange fox screams. They went from house to house, door to door, door to window, and even women kept kneeling in front of the Buddha statue and kowtowed and praying...
The next morning, the villagers of Qingshi Village whispered and pointed at the iron pillar of the hunter who saw the fox fairy at night.
Tiezhu was so scared that he was incontinent and had a pale face. He quickly killed the old hen at home, enshrined him in front of the Land Temple, and kowtowed him repeatedly, begging the fox fairy not to come to him.
"The ghost fire fox is ringing, this is a strange phenomenon. Is God signaling us something?"
The elderly village chief wandered uneasy in the village with a cane.
"Village Chief, vision, vision!"
A villager was holding a grass carp and shouting in panic in the village.
"Ergou, what's wrong?"
"Look at the fish belly, the fish belly!"
This villager, known as Ergou, is already hysterical.
Many villagers surrounded him, and even if his head was sharpened, he would squeeze into the crowd just to see clearly what Ergou said about the strange phenomenon.
Ergou took out a silk parfait from the fish's belly.
"It's really strange that there is a silk squid in the fish's belly."
"Can it be that the fish accidentally ate this silk parsley?"
"Look, there are still alchemy books on the silk handkerchief!"
"Who knows how to read?"
"Let me see, these words seem to be 'Chang'an Xing, King Zhang Hua'."
The villagers were in an uproar and speculated what the alchemy book from heaven that they obtained from the fish's belly meant.
"A few days ago, a fortune teller came to our village. He might be able to explain God's will!"
"Go and ask the fortune teller!"
Clustered by the villagers, a fortune teller holding a guise came to the poor grass carp and carefully looked at the alchemy book obtained from the fish's belly.
The fortune teller comforted his heart and said: "Chang'an should refer to Chang'an City, and Zhang Hua should be the lord of Chang'an City Zhang Hua. This person can achieve the king's career."
"hiss……"
These villagers looked at each other. They had heard that the king of the country, Qin Xiaogong, was fighting with Zhang Hua, the lord of Chang'an City, and the heaven gave the order, but the result was that Chang'an was prosperous and Zhang Hua became king.
A villager nervously asked the fortune teller: "Sir, why do these strange phenomena appear in our village?"
"Yes, our Qingshi Village is just a small village, but we can't afford any major disasters."
"In order to raise food and grass, officers and soldiers almost plundered all the food in our Qingshi Village. If there is another disaster, I can't imagine it."
"Sir, please give me some advice."
The villagers looked at the fortune teller at the same time.
The fortune teller sighed: "I could not reveal the secret of heaven because it would be a long time. But this matter is related to the life and death of the three hundred families in Qingshi Village. I am afraid I can't stand by. Qingshi Village provides food and grass for the Qin army, and is an enemy of the son of destiny, and goes against the heavens. If I cannot follow the destiny, I may be able to destroy the village."
"Destroy, destroy the village disaster..."
The villagers of Qingshi Village were all frightened and frightened.
Various visions that occurred in Qingshi Village have shown that Zhang Hua is the real son of destiny, and Qingshi Village is a village in Qin Xiaogong's territory. Qingshi Village is an enemy of Zhang Hua, and it is an enemy of heaven, and there will inevitably be a bloody disaster.
The ghost fire fox song not only happened in Qingshi Village, but also in many villages in Qin Xiaogong's territory, all kinds of strange phenomena appeared.
In some villages, villagers dug out a stone man with an eye near the river channel.
In some villages, there are mentors who use talismans to help villagers cure their diseases.
White snakes appeared in some villages and were killed by righteous men passing by the village.
Some villages have strangers who are invulnerable to swords and guns.
...
In Zhaojia Village, above this third-level village, a huge and holy white lotus blooms, layer by layer of petals blooming, appearing from mud without stain, and washing in clear water without being charming.
The goddess scatters flowers and is a masterpiece of Sanskrit, which captures the heart.
Tang Sai'er was dressed in white, with barefoots and barefoots, and was walking in a slight way, floating like a worldly independence, and ascending to the immortals.
The huge white lotus flows down with holy light, like a river, showing miracles.
"God! This must be a god!"
"The white lotus blooms, Maitreya comes to the world!"
"Please ask the Saint to save us. The food in our village is no longer good!"
"Pray that God will make good weather and weather in the coming year!"
Under the mound where Tang Sai'er stood, hundreds of villagers prostrated themselves and knelt down to Tang Sai'er, just like kneeling down to worship gods.
After Tang Saier showed off the magic of the White Lotus Sect, these villagers regarded Tang Saier's magic as a miracle, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, and were extremely pious.
In particular, Cao Zhen's grain road was continuously attacked by the Xia cavalry. In addition to supporting the Qin army, Qin Xiaogong also had to support Cao Zhen's Wei army. Therefore, Qin Xiaogong increased the exploitation of villages and towns in the territory, collected all food and grass, tightened his belt, and fought to the death with Zhang Hua.
However, Qin Xiaogong plundered food, causing the people in various villages and towns to decline and panic.
Many towns and villages in Qin Xiaogong's power are territory that have been captured by Meng Tian recently. They may not necessarily regard themselves as Qin people. These villagers are not loyal to Qin Xiaogong.
Under the instigation of Tang Saier, the villagers of Zhaojia Village joined the White Lotus Sect and became first-class soldiers of the White Lotus Sect.
A very small number of talented villagers were transferred to the White Lotus Sect’s guardians by Tang Sai'er.
"The white lotus blooms, Maitreya comes to the world!" Tang Sai'er said in a cold tone, and glanced at the many religious people. "The Lord Zhang Hua of Chang'an City is the reincarnation of Maitreya. If he can win the world, the world will be the public, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment! Our White Lotus Sect, obeys the will of God, assist Lord Zhang Hua to obtain the world! Capture the town and take back our food!"
"kill!"
The villagers of Zhaojia Village were hysterical and fanatical. Under the leadership of Tang Saier, they headed towards the nearby town.
The White Lotus Sect’s Protectors have created various “visits” in advance these days, which incites people’s hearts. When the peasant uprising army organized by Tang Saier passed by, the villagers of these villages and towns joined Tang Saier’s uprising army one after another.
After Tang Sai'er traveled to this world, his awakening talent was quite terrible, so Tang Sai'er was able to fight in the Nanyang Basin for two years, and then fled to Shangluo Mountain and defeat Yuan Shu.
If it weren't for the internal strife of the White Lotus Sect and let Zhang Hua take advantage of the situation, Zhang Hua wouldn't have conquered Tang Sai'er so simply.
When Tang Saier led his troops to the nearby first-level town, Tang Saier's uprising army had already had thousands of people, and it was very powerful!
The White Lotus Sect Protectors scattered all over the place also brought the peasants incited by them to join Tang Saier's uprising army.
There are four towns in Qin Xiaogong's territory, and more than 60 villages were affected by the sudden outbreak of the White Lotus Rebellion and were in turmoil.
"This...what's going on?!"
Suddenly, the town surrounded by the White Lotus Sect, when the guard saw the peasant uprising army with fanatical eyes, his scalp was numb.
Almost all the Qin army in Qin Xiaogong's territory were transferred to fight Zhang Hua by Qin Xiaogong. This first-class town had only 500 defenders.
There were thousands of peasant uprising troops outside the town, and the number was still increasing.
"Sir, what should we do?"
"You ask me, who will I ask?"
The guards of this town were extremely desperate.
To be continued...
