A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

Resisting the government is easier said than done.

The official duties of several county government officials are nothing, if they are tied up, they will be tied up.

The difficulty is that the person standing behind the official is the government, the court.

The governor of Xuzhou has a rebellious intention, but he has not yet implemented it. If he resists the government today, he may be killed by the government tomorrow.

She told the village chief and clan chief that the government had no time to take care of them, but actually she had other preparations.

The official did not believe in evil, so he walked around the village, but there was still no one there.

From the west end of the village to the east end of the village, their eyes finally fell on the cloth workshop on the mountain at the east end of the village.

Along the way, not a single soul was seen.

They were extremely cautious when going up the mountain.

If there is a place in this village where the entire village is hidden, it is the cloth workshop at the east end of the village.

When they arrived at the mountain, the officer moved forward cautiously, slowly unsheathing the sword in his hand and getting closer little by little.

“Be careful”

In the cloth workshop, Bai Xia and the others stepped back, giving their place to the strong men in the village. The child and the woman hid in another room, and the woman reached out and gently covered the child's mouth.

Everyone is nervous.

In the quiet cloth workshop, the sound of swallowing was particularly clear.

Bai Xia, Jin Xi, and Yu Dahai each took a bow and arrow and lurked in the dark. If the situation went wrong or the villagers were outmatched, they would take action.

Bai Xia didn't want anyone's life, he just wanted to control him. It would be better if he could instigate rebellion.

Time passed extremely slowly, and everyone was tense.

"bang"

The door of Bufang was kicked open, and people were hiding on both sides of the door. Many people almost screamed and subconsciously covered their mouths. Even the children did not dare to breathe.

The official figure can already be seen at the door.

After the door was kicked open, no one came in for a long time.

After waiting for a long time, when there was no movement in the cloth workshop, the leading official signaled to one of his men. The man nodded and walked into the house in a swaggering manner.

"Up"

The person who had been ambush for a long time knocked down the person with a stick and knocked him unconscious. According to the order mentioned in advance, everyone filed out and rushed directly to the officials outside.

There were also people hiding outside. When the official was attracted by the movement inside, they rushed over from behind and surrounded him.

It was a matter of life and death. The villagers were very strong and subdued the officials in just a few moves. Bai Xia and the others were basically useless.

"Miss Xia, everyone has been arrested, what should we do next?"

The village chief's voice was trembling.

He didn't dare to look at the officials at all, for fear that he would faint from fright.

That's an official job, and I usually don't dare to offend him at all.

"Let everyone go home first and send two people to the county to keep an eye on them."

After sending the villagers away and asking them to tie up all the officials, leaving only the village chief and the old patriarch alone, Bai Xia began to talk about his next plan.

The surrounding villages are trying to catch young men, and Dou'er Village is not the last one. Some of them have not heard the news and think that paying the grain tax is enough.

Let the village chief send people to the surrounding villages to lobby and let everyone join them in resisting the government.

Things have been done and the more people the better.

The village chief arranged for the people to go out without even hesitating.

The captured officials were imprisoned in an abandoned thatched house. At night, each person was given a bowl of water.

Several villages around Dou'er Village had already captured their young men, and the remaining two villages had successfully established a relationship with Dou'er Village.

Representatives from the two villages came here with the people from Dou'er Village. They took a look at the officials who were tied up tightly and were dumbfounded.

Do they really dare to fight against the officials?
The two of them had an inexplicable luster in their eyes and left in a hurry.

"Will they secretly go to the government to report?"

Bai Xia and Yu Dahai hid in the darkness and watched them leave.

"They won't have this chance." Dou'er Village managed to survive this disaster, and it was not stupid. When discussing with the village chief to notify surrounding villages, they had already taken precautions.

Even though the people they sent to ventilate people have returned, there are still people guarding the only way from each village to the county government. If anyone tries to inform, they will be knocked unconscious.

So there is no possibility of whistle-blowing.

"What's going on over there, brother Yuan?"

"Jiazhou is already in chaos. The leader of the village has taken in many people and is now confronting the government."

"The imperial court wanted to take back the land, but it didn't make arrangements. Many people there were tenant farmers and there wasn't much food. I also heard that the imperial court wanted to take back the land. Many people who had saved up money and planned to buy land couldn't buy it. , it started causing trouble immediately.”

Yu Dahai was responsible for communicating with Li Xiuyuan, and all these information came from Li Xiuyuan.

"Looks like it's time"

Bai Xia narrowed his eyes and asked Yu Dahai to throw out all the food.

Having robbed the granary in Xuzhou, she now has a lot of food on hand.

People from those two villages returned to the village and told the village chief what they had seen, confirming that officials were indeed tied up in Dou'er Village.

The village chiefs of the two villages were also acquaintances, so they sat down to make a summary.

It's better to resist than to be taken away.

Just do it.

Both villages should be attacked.

Ten people from each side of Dou'er Village were sent there, waiting for the officials to arrive.

Not long after, only one day passed, news came over there that the officers who went to the two villages to arrest people had been subdued.

Dou'er Village is also facing a crisis.

"How long will it take for the government officials to arrive?"

"It depends on the distance, half an hour at most." Yu Dahai looked solemn.

This is the trouble later. The official who came out to arrest people did not return all night, and the government sent people to check.

Still a team of ten people.

"Let everyone be prepared and catch people before entering the village."

Yu Dahai nodded and arranged the people.

Because they were well prepared, these ten officials were also captured.

Jin Xi came back with the villagers who went to arrest people, looking relaxed.

There were no experts among these officials, so the villagers took care of it themselves without her having to take any action.

"You've all worked hard. Let's go back and have a rest."

The captured officer moved to another room and locked it up to avoid any accidents.

"Have you heard about the whereabouts of the people who were captured?"

"Except for the first batch, the people arrested later are still in the county government. A batch of about a hundred people is sent out every three days, escorted by twenty officers. This is the roster."

Yu Dahai told the news he had received and handed it to Bai Xia.

Bai Xia turned over the book, took a look at it, and then closed it.

"Follow the list in this booklet to find the corresponding village and find a way to save people."

Yu Dahai took a deep look at Bai Xia and took the order to retreat.

The strong laborers of several villages were captured. After receiving the news, each village chief saw the officials arrested in Dou'er Village like the previous two villages, and agreed to Bai Xia's idea without much hesitation.

One of the villages is considered a big one, with a population of 780. Even if some were taken away, there are still five to six hundred people left.

Several people from each village formed a team of 300 people.

After a brief training session, Bai Xia led them to rescue the captured people.

In the Qingyang County Government Office, the lights in Magistrate Li's room were not turned off even at midnight. Forty officials were missing from the County Government Office, but some people from the villages had not been captured yet, so there was a serious shortage of manpower.
