The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 15 I just ask, who of you objects?

"Master, won't you go in?"

Liu Ming looked at Liu Tai, then turned to listen to the noisy noise inside the county government office, which could even reach the door.

Obviously, at this time, Gongshi Yu and Chu Hui were afraid that they would not be very comfortable inside.

"You can't make any noise if you go in, so you might as well let me have a good sleep at the door. I didn't sleep well last night, I was so sleepy!"

Liu Tai yawned loudly, and had several benches brought in and put together. While basking in the sunshine that was approaching the ninth month of the lunar calendar, he yawned vaguely.

Liu Ming looked at Liu Tai who was about to take a nap, looking a little hesitant, and finally couldn't help but say to Liu Tai:
"Young Master, why did you give this fat man to Tian Zhen's beggar army? Our soldiers can do the same!"

When Liu Tai heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Liu Ming. Liu Ming dodged somewhat when he saw Liu Tai's eyes, but in the end he still confronted Liu Tai with a bit of stubbornness.

"First of all, I don't want the soldiers I brought to become a group of bandits who rob the people after the war." Liu Tai looked at Liu Mingdao,
“I want us to be Han troops, not bandits, so looting after the war is not possible now, nor in the future!

Tell them that if they feel there is no way to make money by following me, the brothers can get together easily and leave at any time. This was the case before, and it is even more so now. "

"Young Master, don't be angry..." Liu Ming looked at Liu Tai, but he was anxious in his heart and wanted an urgent explanation. When the words came to his mouth, all he could say was: "Brothers... brothers …”

To be honest, Liu Ming couldn't tell if it was bad to follow Liu Tai.

After all, it has to be said that Liu Tai can eat three meals here, which is better than other rebels.

Moreover, among the entire rebel army, although Liu Tai's army has high mobility, its real death rate is not high.

Because from a certain point of view, Liu Tai values ​​​​the soldiers the most. He really treats people as human beings. How could the soldiers not feel this?

“I know what you guys mean, that’s why I tell you to read more.

In the beginning, the uprising may have been just for a bite of food, but in the future it is impossible to continue fighting just for a bite of food.

How do I get everyone to eat meat and drink wine? This is what I need to do, so you don’t have to worry.

But if you feel that what I did is sorry for the brothers who came out of the dead together, you can leave at any time! "

When Liu Tai said this, he took a deep breath and changed the topic,

"And you only see the benefit of looting, but if Tian Zhen can't restrain the beggar army, then the more they take, the more they will spit out in the future!"

"What do you mean, Shaojun?!" Liu Ming was a little confused when he heard Liu Tai's words.

"Up to now, neither Tian Zhen's beggar army nor the local clan forces in Yecheng are our own.

If the beggar army does not abide by our rules and kills randomly in Yecheng, we will have no choice but to find local clans to cooperate! "

Liu Tai couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. After all, considering that they were both from the lowest level, Liu Tai was more willing to give the beggar army a chance.

But if Tian Tian couldn't seize this opportunity, he couldn't blame himself for being cruel. After all, he was reasonable!

"If the beggar army invades Yecheng, what are you going to do?" Liu Ming asked Liu Tai curiously.

"It's very simple. Go apologize to the Yecheng clan who are still discussing inside, and then join forces with the Yecheng clan to destroy Tian Tian!" Liu Tai said calmly.

"Apologise?! Is this okay? They will listen!" Liu Ming felt incredible.

"I am only 12 years old, so it is normal for me to be deceived by hateful adults.

As the saying goes, people cannot be resurrected after death. In order to allow the dead to rest in peace, their fields and property must naturally be distributed to those who avenge them. Is that right? "Liu Tai looked at Liu Ming and said sincerely.

"Young Master has long-term plans, and Tian Qi is completely in your hands!" Liu Ming complimented Liu Tai and breathed a sigh of relief.

Because Liu Ming didn't know whether those clan forces would give Liu Tai face, but these clan forces were absolutely willing to give face to the land that had lost its controller.

That is to say, Liu Tai didn't care about these lands, so he could easily control Tian Zhen's beggar army, and he could also control the county soldiers who were mainly local clans.

Because one of them cannot go back to Bingzhou, they need a place to establish themselves, while the other local clan has the ability to completely digest these lands, and there is no need to worry about these things becoming enclaves.

In contrast, his men are more like prodigal sons. Even if these lands are thrown in front of people like himself, I am afraid that they will not be tempted at all.

Because the vast majority of Liu Tai's army are bachelors, or to be more precise, they are the kind of bachelors who have no elders above them, no heirs below them, and are dependent on each other, so the land is not attractive to this group of people at all.

This feeling is probably that things like land are precious, but this is for the entire society, at least social organizations.

Personally speaking, if there is no concern, it is just like real estate to modern junkyard workers, it has no appeal.

I'm ready to spend my whole life alone. It doesn't matter whether I own a house or rent a house. I just want to enjoy myself in time.

This is also the reason why Liu Tai's soldiers complained that Liu Tai handed over the task of plundering wealth to Tian Tian's begging army instead of himself and others.

But in the face of Liu Tai's majesty, they did not dare to make mistakes.

After all, Liu Tai usually treats them well, plus Liu Tai can win battles, and a commander who can win battles, even if he has some quirks, can be tolerated by the soldiers.

After all, Huo Qubing went even further in history in this regard. He strictly enforced the rule that those who were able to eat meat were not qualified to eat shit if they were not, and his soldiers did not have any objections.

Relatively speaking, Liu Tai at least advocated strengthening the soldiers' meals during normal times, and even taught the soldiers how to read. Now he is preparing doctors to treat them after the war, which is already quite amiable.

Liu Tai understood that to some extent, this should be regarded as a conflict between his high moral level and the almost normal habits of soldiers in this era.

The very important reason is that even now, the Xiongnu and Han Kingdoms have not come up with a corresponding system and can only rely on the prestige and morality of the commander to implement the discipline of the soldiers.

But Liu Tai understands that as long as he fails to defeat the battle, the soldiers will endure it even if they are unhappy. But as long as he loses once, then this kind of discipline may not be implemented!
"Invincible on the battlefield..." Liu Tai pressed his temples, "Is this something that people should think about? It's better to take a nap!"

While Liu Tai was taking a nap and patiently waiting for news from Tian Tian, ​​Tian Tian also led an army of beggars and plundered villages one by one according to the addresses given by Liu Tai.

The heads of their clan heads or clan elders were put into sacks by Tian Zhen.

In these destroyed villages, the men were naturally beheaded, and the women were stripped naked and played with by the beggar army.

Of course, the reason they can survive is that they are women and can be exchanged for property.

However, after being a celebrity, even if he was reduced to the leader of the beggar army, and even gave orders by himself, Tian Zhen felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart, and found that he and the beggar army he led were not noble. It made Tian Tian very painful.

"Boss Tian, ​​Zhenjia Village is ahead. Let's rob this village too!" someone suggested.

"That's enough. Liu Tai only gave us a list of three families. If he attacks other villages, we will break his rules!" Tian Tian said seriously. "What's the point? I think Liu Tai only has a few hundred soldiers. He was caught off guard by his surprise attack at the beginning. Now that we have launched a battle and continue to fight, we must be able to capture Ye City and be happy." Once!" someone shouted.

"Little monkey, you were the one shouting just now, come out!" Tian Tian said cheerfully.

Soon a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, who looked like a shrewd person, came out and said with a smile:

"Boss Tian, ​​we have captured Yecheng. Even if you are not the emperor, you can still be a king. Brothers, please be happy too!"

"What about the rules set by Liu Tai?" Tian Tian said calmly after hearing this person's words.

"What's the point of making rules with that Han thief? When you become emperor, you won't be the one to set the rules!" the little monkey complimented.

"This dream is very good, don't have it in the next life!" The spear in Tian Tian's hand was directly fixed on the little monkey's throat.

When the people around him saw this scene, they took a few steps back in panic and looked at Tian Tian in shock!
Tian Tian looked around at everyone and said solemnly, "Everyone came from Bingzhou together, and I, Tian Tian, ​​just want to lead everyone to survive.

Although Liu Tai is violent, cruel, cunning and sinister, at least until now, he has followed the rules.

The world is in such chaos now that we can't survive even if we want to. It's because there are too few rules and too many people who break them!

Now we at least have a chance to take root in Yecheng. If you want to continue to follow me, Tian Tian, ​​then follow me to see Liu Tai.

If you want to leave, I won't stop you. Just walk faster, because I'm afraid if you walk too slowly, brothers will kill each other in the future! "

"Follow Boss Tian, ​​follow Boss Tian..." Soon the crowd started shouting, not knowing whether it was because of support or because they were really smart.

The people around him who reacted slowly looked at the scene in front of them with a bit of shock, but they also started shouting.

Tian Tian said: "Okay, since you are following me, then follow me back to Yecheng!

We heard that Liu Tai only killed three families, so the life and death of these three families will be recorded on him.

If anyone else is affected, then those sins are on our heads.

We want to gain a foothold in Yecheng in the future. We can continue to cling to Liu Tai, but there is no need to make unnecessary enemies. Let's go back to find Liu Tai! "

To be honest, Liu Tai looked down upon Tian Tian more or less. After Tian Feng, the aristocratic family should have a lot of education.

Even in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he was at least considered a poor man, and because of the Sima family's shady manipulations, he fell to the bottom of society, but he was able to organize himself into the leader of a beggar army.

If he could really climb up, not to mention becoming a hero, but becoming a governor would definitely be more than enough.

It's just that maybe because of the use of guns, his life was relatively poor. In history, he met Shi Le and died.

Now, because Tian Zhen is not the kind of rebel leader who simply climbed up from the bottom, he understands the rules of the game.

Just as Liu Tai said, this matter was ordered by Liu Tai, so he slaughtered three families and took the land of three families. Even if he becomes Liu Tai's dog next, the beggar army will be counted within the rules of the game. Get the ticket to settle in Yecheng.

Perhaps the clans and families in Yecheng would be disgusted with Tian Tian's begging army, but they would not deny that the begging army was now eligible to settle down.

But if he kills someone other than Liu Tai's order, Liu Tai's family in Yecheng will bear it now, but when Liu Tai leaves, Yecheng's big and small families will definitely join forces to resist the beggar army.

Because the begging army didn't listen to Liu Tai's words and destroyed other aristocratic families last time, so no one can guarantee that the begging army will destroy other aristocratic families next time without following the rules.

And if the local aristocratic family does not accept him, then he will have to fight with the local aristocratic family. This is definitely something Tian Tian does not want to face.

Tian Tian naturally didn't expect that Liu Tai's bottom line was much lower than he thought.

Basically, Liu Tai is fishing for law enforcement now, waiting for him to massacre other villages, and then plans to use Tian Zhen as a target to integrate the power of other aristocratic families in Yecheng.

However, Tian Zhen followed the rules and asked Tian Zhen to return to the county government with the begging army. Liu Tai showed a satisfied smile.

"What's in the sack?" Liu Tai looked at Tian Zhen and looked at the sack that Tian Zhen was carrying.

"The heads of the heads of the three families!" Tian Tian replied coldly.

"Very good!" Liu Tai made a gesture of invitation, and then said slowly, "Bring a sack, I've been waiting for you until sunset. After all, how can the clan meeting in Yecheng be without you!"

When Tian Tian heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart. Liu Tai had been waiting for him!

"No, five thousand shi of grain, even if you sell our entire Yecheng family, we won't be able to pay for it!"

The elder of the Zhen family shouted to Gongshi Yu, "Besides, there are only more than 400 of you, are you prepared to eat so much food for the rest of your life?"

Gongshiyu looked at the eloquent talk of the Zhen family in front of him, and he only hated himself for why he crossed the Zhen family off the list.

But there are no regrets in life. At this moment, Gongshiyu can only reason and present the facts to the Zhen family in front of him.

But the local aristocratic families, headed by the Zhen family, had begun to confront Gong Shiyu.

After all, if the Han army wants to rule here, it still needs the cooperation of local noble families.

"Bah!" At this moment, the door opened, and everyone saw Liu Tai and Tian Zhen coming in, especially the sacks carried by Tian Zhen. The hearts of all the aristocratic families present felt heavy for some reason.

Liu Tai waved his hand, and Tian Tian didn't say much. He opened the sack and rolled out several heads with blood stains that were not yet dry. The aristocratic clans present could not help but widen their eyes, and some even said, "Wow." Yeah” screamed.

And these people soon saw clearly that these heads were the heads of several aristocratic clan heads and clan elders who had not come here today, especially the one named Song, whom they basically knew!

The most important thing is that when Tian Jin came in carrying sacks, they understood that Liu Tai had recaptured Tian Jin, and the problem of insufficient number of soldiers under Liu Tai's command was greatly supplemented.

"Where did we discuss just now?" Liu Tai turned to Gong Shiyu and asked.

"Reporting to the captain, we are discussing the possibility of renting five thousand shi of grain!" Gongshi Yu said shyly.

Liu Tai glanced at Gongshi Yu very differently, then turned his head and looked at all the aristocratic families in Yecheng,

"I will leave eight thousand shi of grain in the county office at noon tomorrow. I don't care who goes out or how.

I just ask, who of you objects? "

Everyone looked down and lowered their heads, and the entire conference hall seemed extremely quiet for a while.
