Chapter 65 After the War
The tenants did not expect that the Kitchen King would be so generous.

If they had known earlier, with the Kitchen King like this, why would they follow the Li family master? It is a pity that so many people from the same village have died now, and they should not be counted as killed in battle.

Liu Zhenhua has also thought about making a speech, but there are many variables in making a speech. Both parties are bidding. One party can draw the pie, keep raising the price, and have the opportunity to regret it. However, whatever Liu Zhenhua says must be what it is.

The militiaman who was kicked to the ground felt very uneasy when he heard the sounds around him. He was sitting on pins and needles, not knowing how Liu Zhenhua would deal with him.

Suddenly, he felt a gaze looking at him. It was the Kitchen God. His heart suddenly tightened. Is the sentence coming?

"As for you," Liu Zhenhua stared at this man, "you deserve to be punished, so you will be tied up and detained for the time being until the war is over."

When Liu Zhenhua established the system of killing three people to be promoted to heavenly soldiers, he thought that one day there would be such a person.

Right now, this person is considered a 'caught model'.

He has said before that people who do not resist cannot be killed, even if there are close associates of the main leaders, waiting for Liu Zhenhua to deal with them.

Now that this person was greedy for military success, he killed those who did not resist, and almost made the other people who gave up resistance take up arms to resist again, so this example is even more typical.

The militiaman's face was ashen. He seemed to have realized something. If Liu Zhenhua dealt with him now, this matter might not be a big deal. But now, Lord Stove actually wants to wait until the war is over to deal with it. This proves that he has committed a crime. The child is not small.

He couldn't even say anything to beg for mercy. The Kitchen King was good, indeed good, and he was kind to the heavenly soldiers, militia and people. He saw it in his eyes. Because of this, the Kitchen King planned to deal with him, which proved that he had indeed committed a terrible crime. Mistake, let him beg for mercy.

Liu Zhenhua waved his hand, and two heavenly soldiers immediately grabbed the man with his backhand.

The militiaman's body was limp, and he could barely stand up until he was supported by two heavenly soldiers.

Yang Lichao led the Heavenly Soldiers to search in the backyard, and found only a few maids and servants, but no major figures from the landlord's family. "They ran quite fast."

"Push these people to the front," Yang Lichao waved his hand, and the landlord didn't know where to go.

"Ah."

Li Hongguang sneezed. He sat in the sedan chair, opened the curtain and took a look outside.

It was deserted, much worse than his yard.

In his yard, there are always green plants and flowers in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but it is a pity that now he only has white, yellow, cold gold and silver.

"The injustice of this world is still on our heads," Li Hongguang sighed. He didn't have much flesh on his face. He looked more like a poor peasant than a landlord. Of course, leaving aside his luxurious clothes. , and the two beautiful concubines in the car.

Fortunately, he prepared in advance and not only left a checkpoint, but also asked his servants and tenants to delay. Now he is fleeing to Yan'an. After all, there is a larger city there, and it is indeed safer to stay here. At least there is no need to flee in such a hurry. .

"It's just a pity that those fields of mine and those shops in Jiaokou Town," Li Hongguang sighed.

The cultivated land, including the surrounding wasteland, is like a sea.

"Master, you will always come back. As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood."

The concubine next to her said in a soft voice, with a voice that sounded like a woman from the south of the Yangtze River.

It is indeed a Jiangnan woman. Li Hongguang bought this at a huge price. "You're the one with the best mouth."

Li Hongguang looked at the concubine in front of him and felt that there was something that he could not spit out quickly and could only come out through the concubine's mouth.

It’s time to harvest again after the war.

To Liu Zhenhua's helplessness, the landlord seemed to have taken away all the gold and silver. Searching the manor, he found not a single ounce of gold, not even jewelry.

"It seems that a family of landowners was slaughtered. Most of these landowners have long memories."

The place is so clean now, so the landowner of the Li family must have expected such a day, and has packed it up in advance. If the situation is not right, he will leave first to protect his property.

"However, this person can't take away the land or anything like that." Although the land deeds are gone, the impact is actually not too big. This is the land that Liu Zhenhua won, and will be re-measured and distributed at that time.

Liu Zhenhua felt that he should not wander around like those peasant armies, but lay down a solid territory, expand little by little, and implement his own laws and rules.

It can only be said that there is still a lot to be done. Fortunately, there are enough people. At present, there are many villagers near Lijia Village. The vacant population will still be weaved according to the method of men and women.

The remaining bits and pieces were placed in various places where manpower was insufficient.

In ancient times, we often plowed in the spring and served as soldiers in the war. But now Shaanxi, Shandong, Henan and other places are suffering from severe droughts and locust plagues. There is no farming, and we can only support war with war.

Fortunately, these wealthy households had a lot of food. Even in its last years, the Ming Dynasty was still very wealthy as a whole.

However, money is concentrated in the landlords and wealthy families, officials are corrupt, taxes cannot be collected, and refugees are everywhere in the north. Jiangnan seems to be prosperous and prosperous, but it is also in danger.

The people were so poor that they even changed their sons to eat each other, and Emperor Chongzhen was unable to take money from the mouths of the gentlemen who came.

The wealth in the hands of these wealthy landlords, corrupt officials and powerful ministers will all be harvested by the Manchu butcher's knife in the future.

But at the moment, Liu Zhenhua's sword is obviously faster than the Manchu sword.

Li Zicheng, who conquered Beijing, is now competing on the same stage as Liu Zhenhua, but he has fallen behind a lot. He only rebelled in the second year of Chongzhen. The title of Chuang King is also because his leader Gao Yingxiang was the King of Chuang. After Gao Yingxiang died, he inherited got this title.

He might still be a little servant now, with the same background as Liu Zhenhua.

One step at a time, one step at a time, coupled with the speed of Liu Zhenhua's expansion, it is unlikely that he will be able to swallow up Shaanxi in one year. Although Jie Shi's troops will not be able to pull out tanks, at least he will definitely have a well-disciplined and well-equipped army. There could even be a musketry camp or something.

The old grains that had been buried under the ground were dug out and placed next to the grains in the front yard. This was another stage of food distribution after the war.

But before that, there were obviously more important things.

The captured models were dealt with in front of everyone. The reason why they were not taken back for questioning was because they were 'models' of the battle, and those who were suitable to join the soldiers were basically here.

Whether it is the original subordinates or the extra young people of suitable age around Lijiacun.

All eyes were focused on the militiamen who were detained by two heavenly soldiers.
