I still have plenty of time, so I'll spend some time with you.

The revolutionary army was stationed at Gangan Temple.

It is surrounded by plains, perfect for training cavalry.

By the way, nearly a thousand acres of vigorously growing tobacco were leveled.

During his more than ten years of rule, Chongzhen often banned smoking intermittently, and in the most severe cases, smoking could even be beheaded.

Yang Shicong, who had just won the imperial examination, would later record in "Yutang Hui Ji" that "it is said that Shang (Chongzhen) regarded smoke as the Yan (capital). People say that eating smoke is a bad thing." 1 He first surrendered and then surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

Huang Taiji also banned smoking. "Anyone who violates the ban will be beheaded first and then smelled; those who are less than one kilogram will be imprisoned in Yizhou and given a severe punishment."

Unfortunately, both of their measures were of no use.

Smoking addiction is difficult to quit; as for growing cigarettes, "One acre of harvest can equal ten acres of farmland."

The benefits are so great that it is not easy to ban smoking.

Li Zicheng lectured a group of old farmers: "This is a harmful thing. You are not allowed to plant it again! Next time I see you, I will ransack your home! There will be floods next year and drought the next year. If you want to survive, you should be honest and stock up on more grain."

"Yes, yes..."

The villagers received the subsidy money and were both happy and frightened, so they were obedient to the short-haired master.

Li Jiantai in Quwo County should still be serving as a minister of the Imperial Academy, and it will be ten years before he is promoted to the chief minister of the cabinet.

There are also brothers from the Wei family, who will have one minister and one minister in the future - from the Qing Dynasty. They are still working as scholars at home. Unfortunately, Li Zicheng cannot enter the city and cannot establish relations with them to show his goodwill.

The commander-in-chief came to Nanji Village in the county.

Jia Hanfu has joined the army and is away. He left some money and cloth to express his condolences to his old mother. He would be promoted to deputy general of Huai'an in the Ming Dynasty, and then in the second year of Shunzhi he would be demoted to the Qing Dynasty and attached to the Zhenglan Banner of the Han Army. Later he would be the governor of Henan and Shaanxi, and his official reputation was still there.

Good.

There was a guard station in Xin Village, Beixin County, so they went directly to collect summer grain. The extra grain was distributed to military households on the spot. By the way, dozens of horses and mules from the nearby Mengcheng Station were taken away.

Early in the morning on June 30, the revolutionary army fired two cannons at Quwo City to vent the fire, broke camp and set off.

We walked to Houma at noon, collected grain, and drove away dozens of horses and mules from the post station.

Funds for the post stations were allocated locally, and Mengcheng and Houma posts were returned to the same county. The expenses were heavy and donations were heavy, and the officials were tired and the people were suffering.

Post stations that should be removed were not removed, and posts that should not be removed were cut off randomly. The court was confused.

On July 1, revolutionary troops surrounded Jiangzhou.

Lei Yuzhong, the governor of Lamb, was in a panic. He asked the gentry and Father Gao for advice, and they all said that losing money would avoid disaster.

The revolutionary army successfully extorted ten pigs, fifty chickens, two baskets of eggs, ten baskets of fried gourds, five hundred dan of grain, and some pure mud inkstones as tribute pens and ink.

It is said that last time Han Lin was punched down by Zhao Desheng, who was not a martial artist, and he cried to his grandfather afterwards.

Wang Zongyue was furious and ordered all his disciples and disciples to come from Taigu to kill him to regain his place. At this time, the old man happened to be in Jiangzhou.

The king boldly led his troops out of the city, and everyone else's jaw dropped. Why don't you want to be eaten alive by the bandits?

The Han brothers knew who Zhao Desheng was, so they were not worried and followed him out of the city together. Even Father Gao came out to join in the fun, preparing to take the opportunity to enlighten the lost thieves.

The two parties met in a harmonious atmosphere.

Wang Zongyue was already in his seventies or eighties, but Li Zicheng couldn't punch the old man unless he made two gestures.

He had no choice but to recruit some generals and said, "Go and play with him."

Liu Zongmin laughed and said, "Don't worry, brother, I'll stab him with one finger!"

"That won't work!"

Li Zicheng was given the opportunity face to face, "Only defeat but no victory! A fine of one hundred taels for winning, and a reward of ten taels of silver for losing..."

After the venue was cleared, the art team was dispatched to play "The Music of King Qin Breaking the Formation".

The title of the song is deceiving, but it is actually considered ritual music, not killing music.

It is said that in the second year of Wude, Li Shimin led his troops across the Yellow River from Longmen, stationed troops in Jiangzhou, and attacked Liu Wuzhou, winning consecutive battles. So the local people composed a song to celebrate. It was later adapted into a palace dance song.

Amidst the sound of drum music, Liu Zongmin was the first to take the lead.

A few feet away, Wang Zongyue had just made a hand gesture, and Brother Optimus Prime screamed "Ah!" and fell backwards.

"My father-in-law is very skilled in martial arts! Thank you for not killing me. Ouch, it hurts me to death!"

"Me!"

Li Zicheng was so angry that he stepped forward and kicked Liu Zongmin hard, "It's a full show, do you understand? The acting is exaggerated, which makes me angry!"

Gu Kecheng, Yuan Zongdi, and Li Zijia all stepped forward to help, "How can you be so stupid? You can accompany me for ten taels of silver!"

"Don't slap me in the face..." Liu Zongmin held his head and screamed.

Wang Zongyue was so angry that his heart and liver were trembling, and his beard was trembling, "You, you, you despise me!"

Li Zicheng hurriedly stepped forward to apologize, beating his back and loosening his bones.

"Old hero, as the saying goes, boxing is not as good as the young. How about you take a rest, and I will accompany your apprentice to do a few tricks?"

He is no longer an apprentice, and Jiang Fa is already running for five years. You cannot bully the old man.

His disciples Xing Xihuai, Zhang Chuchen and others were young and strong, and Li Zicheng had no burden to beat them.

Now I sparred with them a few times, and the back and forth was really exciting.

The onlookers applauded one after another, and even King Lingqiu who was watching the battle at the top of the city clapped his hands and praised him.

The scene was complete, and Li Zicheng knocked them down with one punch and one kick.

"Good boy!"

Wang Zongyue clapped his hands and shouted, "The old man is still dissatisfied, so let's do some push-hands."

Li Zicheng didn't know how to do this, so he insisted on being humble for six or seven rounds but was staggered.

Wang Zongyue stroked his beard and said proudly, "The young man has good qualifications. How about becoming a closed disciple of the old man?"

Li Zicheng handed over his hand, "Thanks to Mr. Wang for being considerate, but this junior thinks that rebellion is more promising."

"..." Wang Zongyue was stunned.

It turns out you are a rebel, forget this!
