Chapter 36 Grass Stirrups

With a place to live, food for the hungry, and clothing for the cold, the hard-working farmers can settle down, instead of turning into ant thieves who are not afraid of death and destroy everywhere as soon as they rebel.

Liu Bei admitted that he had entered into the misunderstanding of being a thief from the very beginning. Most of the Taipingdao Bundled Association who had just started the incident were unarmed, kind-hearted, and hard-working farmers. As long as someone gave them food, they would settle down. Eat them and they will become the cheapest fighters.

It seems that I should send troops to wipe out the rebels around Lucheng Pavilion, so that the peasants who were rebels can settle down again, otherwise, once they become plundering, so many peasants will be exhausted and all the members of the Liu clan will be exhausted to death.

A cloud of smoke from outside the Lucheng Pavilion quickly rushed into Wubao, and two dusty men broke into Liu Bei's house and shouted loudly: "Brother Xuande, do you want to save Yongyi?"

Liu Bei was worrying about how sad life would be without Jian Yong, and Jian Yong appeared in front of his eyes: "Brother Xianhe, aren't you well? How can Bei Bei save you?"

Jian Yong, contrary to his usual arrogance, said in a disrespectful manner: "The Wubao of my family was surrounded by ants and thieves around. Fortunately, all the servants resisted desperately and did not fall. The form is already crumbling! My grandmother, my mother, my wife and my family The women and children of Jian's family are all in Wubao, if Xuande doesn't help, my family will almost be wiped out!"

Jian Yong cried with his head in his arms, but Jian Hao didn't dissuade him when he heard the words, but kept wiping away his tears.

Liu Bei already had the intention to send troops to quell the chaos, but he stayed in Wubao only after the onset of delayed disease. Jian Yong's arrival gave him no reason to shirk, saying: "Brother Xianhe, don't worry, I will send troops to Jian's Wubao when I call the elders."

Patriarch Liu Le, Elder Liu Hun, Military Marquis Liu Zhong, Military Marquis Liu Zhiran, and Chief Scout Liu Ling were quickly summoned. When they heard that Jane's Wubao was besieged, they had mixed reactions. Although Patriarch Liu Le didn't say it directly, The meaning is that now Taiping Dao is against the chaos in the world, and it is not appropriate to sacrifice the lives of the Liu clan for the sake of self-protection.

Liu Zhong, Liu Zhiran, Liu Ling and other young men believed that Jian Yong had contributed a lot to Liu's Wubao, so he couldn't just leave him dead.

Liu Bei looked at Liu Hun: "What do the elders think?"

Liu Hun's cloudy old eyes glanced at everyone, and said: "The world is in chaos, and the Liu family in our Lucheng alone may not be able to protect themselves, but the thousands of young and strong outside the wall also have to guard against it!"

"What the old man said is true. To save Jian's is to save ourselves. Otherwise, when all Zhuo County falls into the hands of the rebels, how long can we hold on in Lucheng Liu?"

Liu Bei's rhetorical question left the elders headed by Liu Le speechless, but Liu Le still said: "Xuande led people to rescue Jian's, what about the thousands of young men outside the city?"

"Take them away together." Liu Bei waved his big hand and said vigorously: "Let their parents and wives live in Wubao, and the men should protect them from the wind and rain outside."

As soon as the opinions of the Liu clan were unified, the archers composed of two hundred Liu clan members were immediately ready to go. Liu Ling even led a group of scouts to explore in the direction of Jian's Wubao, and the remaining group of scouts were sent to all directions of Lucheng Pavilion Observe for suspicious situations.

More than a thousand young adults who were working were suddenly summoned, and a pot of yellow corn and rice was placed in front of everyone. The fragrant corn and rice made the young and strong who had not eaten for a long time salivate. For the meal, why did Liu Ahu put out such a good meal?"

"What the hell? Just let him eat!"

"What else can you do except eat?"

"..."

Liu Bei was wearing ancestral lock armor, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and appeared on the wall of Wubao surrounded by a group of Liu clan members wearing reed armor, reed hat, reed shoes, holding bamboo spears and carrying mulberry bows.

Liu Bei looked at the chattering thousands of young adults under the wall, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, listen to Bei."

Although Liu Bei's voice was loud, the thousand or so young men were still talking about it. Liu Bei looked helplessly at Liu Zhiran beside him, and Liu Zhiran comprehended the dozen or so members of the Liu clan with loud voices shouting in unison: "Shut up, the pavilion chief is here! Talk."

More than a thousand young and strong were still clamoring, Liu Zhiran was furious: "Whoever talks again will have nothing to eat."

Qianyu young and strong shut up obediently, and Liu Bei nodded in satisfaction: "I know you must be very dissatisfied with me for only giving me two bowls of gruel every day? But have you ever thought that without you, our Liu clan can eat three meals of millet a day?" Rice instead of the current two meals of corn and rice."

Liu Bei's words made more than a thousand young and strong people under the wall curl their lips: Liu's Wubao has no food, why don't you come here?
Liu Bei continued: "Perhaps some people will say that there is no food in Liu's Wubao, so why don't we come? But have you ever thought about it? You know that other people also know that if they all flock here, you may not even have gruel." I can’t drink it anymore! Maybe some people will want to simply grab Liu’s Wubao. One day is a day! Not to mention the power of my Liu’s Wubao’s bow and arrow, even if you rob my Liu’s Wubao’s food, you can still eat it How many days? How can there be a constant stream of people begging for food outside to fight with their lives? You may survive, but will your wives, children and parents survive the struggle?"

How many days can you live without food?Can you survive until the autumn crops come down?Can the parents, wife and children come down?

More than a thousand young and strong people were puzzled when they asked themselves. A big man with cheeks frowned and said, "Liu Ahu respects you as a character, so you just say what you have to say, why bother to beat around the bush?"

Well!So many words about feelings just now are in vain!It's a real headache to get a bunch of monotonous farmers to start thinking.

Not only did Liu Bei support his forehead, he said: "In order to prevent others from robbing us of our rations, we must wipe out the Taiping Road and return to our homeland."

The cheeky man took the lead in echoing: "For rations, destroy the Taiping Road and return home."

"For rations, destroy the Taiping Road and return home."

Sparse voices sounded, and slowly began to shout in unison: "For food rations, wipe out the Taiping Road, and return home."

"Let's eat, and take Jane's Wubao straight after the meal."

Following Liu Bei's full meal, more than a thousand young and strong lined up to get the meal in an orderly manner. The big man with the cheeks quickly finished a bowl of corn and rice and went to the line. At first, some people laughed at him for not knowing the rules, but the big man with the cheeks received another bowl before coaxing And up.The Liu clan who was in charge of the meal flicked his whip a few times, and the excited crowd restored order.

After dinner, everyone received a bamboo gun, lined up in a line under the supervision of the Liu clan, and then headed for Jian's Wubao.

Jian's Wubao is in the north of the city, and Liu's Wubao is in the west of the city. The distance between the two is more than ten miles, and the fast horse will arrive in less than half an hour, but more than a thousand young and strong can't finish ten miles in an hour.

Liu Bei rode staggeringly on the horse sent by Zou Qiao. In order not to lose his reputation as a dog and horse lover, Liu Bei invented the double stirrups in advance. Each stirrup can be retrieved.
