MTL - Han’s Son is Not a Slave-Chapter 42 kidnapping
It is too laborious to explain with Ge Wu and the others, and it will not be effective, so Zhou Shixiang once again "tactfully" explained the meaning of including all the young and strong family members into the army.
"These old and weak women and children are actually the hostages in our hands. You think, this wife and children are all in our hands. Then he will not listen to us and not go with us? Under the banner of the army, the Qing army will never let us go, so the brothers will definitely fight against the Qing army. At that time, these young men will be our support. We will hold their wives and children, not afraid that they will not give their lives! Someone will take care of them! We are working hard, brothers are still afraid that we can’t beat the Qing army? It’s really impossible to beat them. With so many people standing for everyone, how can they escape?”
"rational!"
Hearing this explanation, Ge Wu suddenly realized that he dared to play for a long time, and the Zhou brothers had done a kidnapping business.
"It makes sense, the question is that there are more than 800 people, what can we feed them? Today, you are guaranteeing in public that everyone will have food, clothing, and meat to eat! If there is no food, what should I do?" Zhao Sihai was troubled by this question.
"I have already figured out a way to do this." Speaking of this, Zhou Shixiang glanced at Song Xianggong, who knew what he wanted to say, but only opened his mouth slightly but did not speak. Seeing this, Zhou Shixiang then said to everyone: "I plan to kill the big households and collect all the money and food in the city into our hands, so that we can feed these old and weak women and children who follow us."
Kill the big family?
Brothers Ge Wu and Ge Liu's eyes flashed with brilliance instantly, and the rest of the crowd also shone with strange brilliance.
"After that, Luo Ding has a total of several big families, and we knocked out a sum of food. How much is left on hand, and how long can it last? If this food is exhausted, what should we do? Raise them?" Zhao Sihai was still not optimistic about this method.
"Of course you can't keep them in vain. If they want to eat well, drink well, and dress warmly, they have to follow us to grab it."
"Then grab it?" Zhao Sihai was startled, "Who is it for?"
"Qing Army."
"Stealing Tartars?"
Zhao Sihai and Ge Wu were both shocked.
Zhou Shixiang stared at them: "Why, are you afraid?"
Hearing this, Zhao Sihai suddenly became unhappy: "Scholars, don't look down on the brothers, if the brothers are really afraid of Tartars, they won't come to Luoding City with their heads up!"
Ge Wu took a sip and snorted: "I was born a bandit. I used to do some small things like robbing houses. Now, Brother Zhou, you said that you want us to do big business with Big Brother Hu, then our brothers will follow suit. If the two of my brothers are frowning, they are not raised by their parents!"
"Brother Zhou, Tartars are not easy to grab. We are lucky this time." Hu boss, who was Li Chengdong's personal soldier, was a little hesitant. He knew that the Qing army was powerful. There is no such thing in the world that can be done a second time. Yes, if you really want to fight the Tartars head-on, the odds of winning are really small.
"I heard Mr. Song say that the Qing army in Guangdong has not many green battalions garrisoned in other places except Guangzhou, which is heavily entrenched, so I thought we could start from the places where these green battalions were garrisoned and rob him a few times. Don't you have any food?"
Hearing Zhou Shixiang's plan, Boss Hu frowned and said, "This is going to make too much noise. The Tartars will definitely attack us with heavy forces. Then we will drag and help the old and weak, women and children, how can we escape?"
Zhou Shixiang smiled and said: "So we have to shoot a shot and change the place, so that the Qing army can't suppress us."
"Take a shot and change a place?" Hu boss was taken aback, not knowing what Zhou Shixiang meant.
Ge Wu, Zhao Sihai, they are also inexplicable, this is a strange saying.
Zhou Shixiang explained: "After robbing this place, let's go to another place immediately, so that the Qing army can't figure out where we are, and where we are going to grab the next place. As long as we start in front of them every time, their Our noses are always pinched by us. At that time, we will not be afraid of not being able to grab something, nor will we be afraid of being surrounded by them. If they can’t surround us, we can naturally run away.”
After this explanation, Boss Hu understood. After nodding his head, he did not agree. He said, "According to what you said, then we are no longer rogues? The old prince said when he was alive that since ancient times, officials are not afraid of rogues, but are afraid of sitting down. Bandits and rogues were violent at first, but after a long time, the government always had a way to deal with them, so the rogues could not become a climate. Besides, I just received the appointment of the Yongli court, and the Zhou brothers also said in the stockade that everyone should rely on them. The Yongli court is born, and if we go to the rogue, what does the Yongli court think of us? How can we be the Ming army?"
Hearing what Boss Hu said, Zhao Sihai also said: "Yes, the Xiucai told us yesterday that if we want to make a fortune, we have to become a government by ourselves, but if we become rogues, we won't be able to do it if we return to the government. ?"
"The rogue and the government are not contradictory."
Zhao Sihai's question gave Zhou Shixiang a headache, and he felt a sense of trouble in tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, but no matter how troublesome he was, he had to tell the truth, otherwise, he would just slap himself.
In the beginning, I said that I wanted to lead others to become an official government to make a fortune, but after turning my ass, I said that I wanted to take someone to become a rogue and make a fortune. If you don’t give a reasonable explanation, what will people think of you?
"We have too few people to follow, our strength is too weak, and the enemy is right in front of us, so we just wanted to be the official of Luo Ding, and we have been for a few days. How much money can we make in a few days? Therefore, we have to Take advantage of these few days to expand our strength, and then go to grab other places. When we grab more money and food, and more people are tied up, there will naturally be more young people who can fight. Then we will be strong and strong. Of course, you don't have to be afraid of the Qing army coming to attack us, and we will be able to deal with the government safely at that time. So I said, this rogue and the government are not contradictory, the key is whether our strength can support the brand of the government! The same The truth is, if we have the strength, the Yongli court will recognize us, if we don't have the strength, they won't even look at us!"
"Oh, yes, isn't that what it is, sustainable development!" Ge Wu scratched his head, and finally came up with the term.
"Yes, sustainable development!" Zhou Shixiang glanced at Ge Wu with admiration, and the latter suddenly felt a sense of joy of being recognized.
"Then the public treasury happened yesterday? Do you really plan to keep the things that you robbed in the future, and then distribute them to those people?" Zhao Sihai thought about this in his heart during the day, and didn't spit it out until now to ask for clarity.
"Yes, I am indeed planning to set up a public treasury. In the future, all the money, grain and materials seized by the brothers will be kept and distributed uniformly."
In front of everyone, Zhou Shixiang would not deny what he said, and it is imperative to set up a public treasury. Otherwise, everyone has selfishness, and everyone thinks about the wealth that has already been obtained, then no one will Once again, the desperate Qing army will fight to the end.
This time, without Zhao Sihai saying anything, Ge Wu jumped up: "The brothers have tried their best to **** things but they have to share it with others, so what are the brothers trying to grab!"
"Yeah, why should I give it to them?" The bald man listened to it for a long time, and he heard this most clearly, and he shouted regardless of the pain in his shoulders.
Zhou Shixiang signaled to Ge Wu and Baldy not to worry, he shook his head at Ge Wu and said, "Brother Ge Wu just said something wrong."
Ge Wuyi was startled: "No? What am I saying wrong?"
Zhou Shixiang said: "I dare to ask fifth brother, who is keeping this public treasury, and who is responsible for distributing the money and grain?"
"This..." How did Ge Wu know.
The bald man said angrily: "It doesn't matter who will take care of it, we can't let those people take care of our things, right?"
"It's over!"
Zhou Shixiang gave a high five, "As long as we hold the public treasury in our hands and hold the power of distribution in our hands, aren't the things in the public treasury still owned by the old brothers? It doesn't matter when the time comes, you still have the final say? Besides, There are so many people grabbing for us, and then it is not the problem of being indistinguishable, but the problem of being afraid that everyone can't handle it!"
"So it is!" Ge Wu's black face immediately turned red again, "I said, Brother Zhou is a hero with good brains, how could he come up with what to do for others... what to do?"
"Wedding dress." Song Xianggong coughed twice. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
Ge Wuyi patted his head and said excitedly, "Yes, make wedding gowns for others!"
"If it is such a public treasury, then I have no objection."
Zhao Sihai pondered carefully, if he really put the power of the public treasury in the hands of his own brothers, then it would be no problem to set up another hundred public treasuries. Anyway, everything is his own, and it will not be a matter of words if you want to take it. Thinking of the benefits here, he couldn't help but smile.
"Do you have anything else to say, brothers?"
"No, no more!"
Zhou Shixiang's arrangements were all for the sake of the old brothers, and he explained it well, so there was no dissatisfaction among the people.
Boss Hu shook his head with a smile, Song Xianggong told him everything Zhou Shixiang was going to do, although some of the practices were spread out and had a bad reputation, but he was a bandit, and he was afraid of a bad reputation.
Song Xianggong's words are the most true, someone has food and territory, you are an official; no one has no food and no territory, you are a bandit. This is too reasonable, so as long as Zhou Shixiang's method allows him to quickly have his own people and territory, he will support him unconditionally. As a scholar, their brains are definitely better than those of us rough people, so let them move.
"Since everyone has no opinion on my arrangement, please cheer up everyone. The soldiers under your command will be trained well in the past two days. We will lead them to do great things in two days!"
