Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Zhou Shixiang thought he couldn't do it by breaking his promise to kill, but Boss Hu's worry was not unreasonable. Once these Qing army prisoners knew their details, there was no guarantee that they would surrender willingly. If chaos broke out, it would inevitably be another fight. Addition of variables. But after thinking about it, there is no good way to solve this matter for the time being, so I followed Boss Hu to lock people up first.

Seeing that the "Ming Army" was tied with a rope, Shao Jiugong and the others were also very cooperative and had no intention of resisting. They knew that this was a practice. In this way, after counting, including Chief Shao Jiugong, a total of 63 Qing army prisoners were captured. The rest were either burned to death by the fire or died in the battle to seize the gate. I don't know how many are still in the city.

Just in case, Boss Hu asked Ge Wu to bring a few people to block Ximen, and then personally bring the prisoners to the Zhizhou Yamen. Zhou Shixiang asked himself to lead people to search the remaining Qing troops in the city, and his performance in beheading Kong Guoliang had already established his prestige among the people in Daqiao Mountain, and made everyone fully recognize his ability. He heard that Yunlonghe beheaded him on the spot. The impact that Kong Guoliang brought to people is definitely different. Today's Zhou Shixiang is completely a big man, a hero, and a hero with both civil and military skills in their eyes!

Without saying a word, Boss Hu asked Peng Dazhu to bring six people to follow Zhou Shixiang. Just now, he led people to defend the west gate. For this reason, more than ten people were killed and injured. Now the number of people who can move is only twenty, and they have to look after the prisoners. , it is really enough loyalty to give Zhou Shixiang seven people. Zhou Shixiang asked for another Qing army prisoner, so that when he found the Qing army, he could help him call for surrender.

After leading people around the city, except for a dozen Qing soldiers who escaped after shouting that they were willing to surrender, no trace of the rest of the Qing army was found, but the swords and uniforms discarded on the street. I found a lot. I think it was those Qing troops who escaped from the barracks and disguised themselves as civilians to mix in the crowd.

As long as the Qing army did not form a regiment, Zhou Shixiang would not worry about it, no matter how many unorganized troops there were.

The wind has weakened a lot compared to before, and as the wind weakened, the fire also weakened accordingly, but the smoke was bigger than before, and people couldn't see far. Burnt taste.

Zhou Shiqi saw that some people had spontaneously organized to put out the fire, and saw that there were many fires in the city. The efficiency of the firefighting by the people who organized spontaneously was too low, so he brought Peng Dazhu and the other dozen Qing army prisoners to Zhizhou Yamen. , I would like to ask Boss Hu to organize personnel and mobilize the people of the city to participate in the firefighting, otherwise, let the fire burn. After dawn, most of the Luoding City will be in ruins.

The purpose of Zhou Shixiang's change of mind not to go to Guangxi to join the army was to use the bandits of Daqiao Mountain to capture Luoding City, so as to gain the approval of the Yongli court of the Nanming Dynasty. The key to this plan is Luo Ding. If Luo Ding City is in ruins, then this plan will be meaningless. At least, Zhou Shixiang could no longer rely on Luo Ding to obtain human resources and money.

.........

When he arrived at Zhizhou Yamen, Boss Hu had just detained Shao Jiugong and other prisoners, and was about to send someone to notify Song Xianggong and Ge Liu of the East Gate to meet them. When they saw Zhou Shixiang and the others, they were very happy. When they heard that Zhou Shixiang asked him to organize The fire was extinguished by hand, and it should be done now.

Boss Hu was originally from a poor family. If the Manchurians hadn't encircled his family's land and wanted to turn his family into slaves, he would not have fled south with his mother and brothers, so although he fell for the sake of bandits, he could. Deep down, he still sympathizes with the poor, and does not see the suffering of the people. Zhou Shixiang said he wanted to put out the fire, but he naturally had no opinion.

Unexpectedly, Boss Hu had no opinion, but Ge Wu's gang were not happy, they shouted that they carried their heads into the city to kill and set fire to make a fortune. Now that they have finally defeated the Qing army and controlled the situation in the city, how could this happen? The truth of not taking advantage of the fire to help put out the fire!

When Ge Wu shouted, the others immediately followed suit, and all of them eagerly went out to grab one.

It's really a dog can't change eating shit!

Zhou Shixiang secretly scolded the bandits for being really muddy and unable to support them. He pressed down his anger and said to them, "You guys came into the city with their heads in their heads to make a fortune. I understand that, and I won't stop you guys, but I want to ask everyone, do you want to grab the big one or the small one?"

"I came to Luoding for the big ticket. Yesterday, there was a saying that the big one was robbing the small one?" Ge Wu was puzzled. Is there any size of the robbery?

"Of course the robbery must be divided into large and small!"

In order to make the group of men hear clearly, Zhou Shixiang deliberately raised the volume, and continued: "There is fire everywhere in the city right now, if you are going to loot, you are looting small ones, because the fire broke out suddenly, the people were busy fleeing for their lives, and the people at home were busy running for their lives. How much can you bring out of valuable items? Which one has money and which one has no money, can you tell the difference? If you really want to hide it, can you find it? I’m afraid that before you find it, Luoding City will be burned down by fire. , At that time, I'm sure that what you can grab is not as good as being burned by a fire!  Does it make sense?"

"It sounds like this is the truth, but," Ge Wu seemed to understand, "then how can you get a big one?"

"Let me ask you, what makes the most money in this world?" Zhou Shixiang tried his best to say something else to convince the group of people to do what they wanted.

Ge Wu said without thinking: "Of course we do business, our robbers like to hijack this group of people, they are very rich!"

"Is there no other way to make a fortune in this world other than doing business?"

"That must be there. The landlord's family must also be rich, but it seems that there are not enough people to do business."

When Zhou Shi met Ge Wu, he didn't follow his train of thought, so he had to ask him directly: "Then let me ask you, do these people want to pay taxes to the government?"

Ge Wu nodded and said, "That's definitely necessary. Those who are in the business aisle are afraid of getting stuck. When the stuck is down, most of the profits will be in the hands of the government, and those in the family will definitely have to pay taxes, but if there are people in the government, the family has Fame, but not much to pay."

"Why does the government ask these people to pay and pay for food?"

"If you don't pay it, it will be a fight against grain and donations, and officers and soldiers will come to fight."

"So, isn't what the government does is robbery? We go to rob the people, the people don't give it, don't we want to shout and kill? So, the government is the most prosperous business in the world, and the business people are also Well, whether it’s the land owner, all of them have to pay the government. In this case, why can’t we be the government to **** him a big one? As long as we become the government, the people in Luoding city don’t care what they do, they all have to pay Let's pay the grain and tax! In this way, everyone is sitting and collecting money, which is faster than grabbing with a knife? Besides, if we go to grab it ourselves, how much can we grab, and how much can we take?"

"It's still a scholar who is thoughtful. This motherfucker's robbery has its own way. Isn't that the principle? Isn't the government doing the same business as us!" Ge Wu spent a lot of effort and finally understood what Zhou Shixiang meant, and was excited. Rub hands straight. "Since we are going to be an official government and we want to rob the big ones, then we can't watch the fire burn any longer. We must know that the fire is all ours! The valuable things in this common people's family are all called fire, so what are they going to give to them? we?"

"Brother Zhou, don't talk about it, UU reading www.uukanshu.com I understand Ge Wu! If you didn't say anything, brothers listen to you, let's go put out the fire!"

"Yes, go put out the fire, but you can't call all the good things on fire!"

He became active again, and Boss Hu was also convinced by Zhou Shixiang's reasoning on the side. The robber became the official government. He, Hu Quan, was the boss of the government.

"Everyone is going to put out the fire now. When the fire is out, the brothers will come to serve as officials. At dawn, everyone will split up and count how many people there are in the city. If you have money and don't have money, you will list them all, and then you will make a charter. At that time, whoever dares not to pay, we will fight them."

"it is good!"

All the men responded in unison. Ge Wu was about to go to put out the fire, but after two steps he turned around with a look of confusion: "This city is so big, I'm afraid we can't do it with just our manpower."

Zhou Shixiang just wanted to say that instead of letting them directly participate in the firefighting, he would organize those panicked people to participate, even if they were forced to use a knife!

Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Sihai rushed over again panting, saw Zhou Shiyan at first glance, and hurriedly shouted: "Xiusai, Mr. Song has organized hundreds of young men to help the people in the city put out the fire, and he asked me to inform you. With a bang, there are some rogues in the city who are taking advantage of the fire, and there are also some Qing soldiers who are trying to fish in the middle of the water, and I want Brother Hu to quickly bring people to clean them up, otherwise the situation will be too chaotic and it will be difficult to clean up."

"Mom is a jerk, I haven't even started to rob it yet, but they have started!" Hearing that someone was looting outside, Ge Wu's face darkened, he grabbed the knife and rushed out, "Brothers, talk to Lao Tzu. Go catch those **** who slew our business!"
