The Gao family is the largest landlord in Qi County. The master Gao Zhongwen has a nickname called "Gaobancheng". Half of the land and industries in the county are in his hands.

Since Chongzhen, wars have continued, and Henan has been a severely affected area. Li Zicheng and the Ming army have repeatedly tug-of-war. Logically speaking, there is no end to the collapse of the nest, but the power of the Gao family has risen against the trend, and the more turbulent they are, the greater their power.

The reason is also very simple. Gao Zhongwen is willing to spend a lot of money and gathered a large group of thugs, with thousands of people. No matter who comes, he must not ignore this local snake. Gao Zhongwen is good at getting along with everything. In the past few years, his power has expanded faster. The nickname of Bancheng is almost going to become "the whole city".

A flood gave the Gao family another opportunity to make a fortune.

"Dad, it's so unlucky. I just went to Sumu, and those mud legs were so hungry that they ran away." The eldest son Gao Jue said angrily.

Gao Zhongwen was not angry, and his big round face was full of smug smiles: "Well, I can't find the toads with three legs in this world, and there are living people with two legs everywhere. I will take over all the land and recruit refugees in the future."

"Dad, I'm afraid it won't work. The governor repeatedly ordered that he would not allow annexation of land and would give the people a way to live. We should do this, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Gao Zhongwen sneered: "No need to be afraid at all. Chen Qianfu borrowed three thousand dans of food from his father a few days ago, eating someone's short mouth and taking someone's hands short. No matter how ruthless Chen Qianfu is, does he still have the face to make things difficult for us men? Tell the people below, let me go and take all the land around Qi County. When the flood completely retreated and refugees were recruited to farm, we also expanded our team and brought up an army of three to five thousand people."

"Dad. I'm afraid there are too many people. Looking at the small Qi County, there are no need for so many people."

"Don't worry!" Gao Zhongwen said to his son without hesitation: "Dad tells you what you are every day, take a long-term view. When is this? Swords and weapons are everywhere, and some people are the kings of grass. If our Gao family has three or five thousand people, who dares not care about us, and then he will surrender to whoever takes power. At the worst, he can be a guerrilla general or something. Isn't this the glorious ancestor?"

Gao Jue heard his father's words and immediately smiled happily, stretched out two thumbs, and couldn't help but praise: "Dad is my father, you have such a high idea. My son will take people out now and grab more people back, so that you can shine your family and glory to the ancestors!"'

"Well. Go, but remember, as long as you are young and strong, the elderly, weak, women and children will be slaughtered by me and thrown into the river!"

"Yes!" Gao Jue hurriedly agreed and left his father's study, the more he thought about it, the more beautiful he became.

Guerrilla? General? I am going to be an official too!

Gao Jue was so beautiful that he almost burst out of his nose and went outside. He shouted loudly: "Hurry, the young people follow me, let's go and fight for wealth."

"Master, what should you do?"

"What are you doing? Follow me to grab people and things."

"Okay!" The rich slaves shouted, and they were all ready to go. Some of them got on war horses, and those without war horses rode mules and donkeys. There was nothing, so they could only spread their legs and keep up desperately.

The group of people left Qi County and rushed towards the southeast. People kept fleeing to Juzhou these days. Originally, the Gao family didn't care, but since they had the intention of being a powerful man, they could not let these refugees go.

From a distance, he watched a group of thousands of refugees running towards Juzhou. The third year of high school could not help but say, "Young master, kill me and take away all these people!"

"Slow down!" Gao Jue stopped him and said with a sinister smile: "It's so unreasonable to grab people like this. Master, I have a way to make them obedient. You can tell these ordinary people that the Gao family can hold porridge and let them all follow them. After they are trapped, you will start and pick out all the sick people, the old ones who can't move and the young ones who can't do their jobs, and slaughter them. Our Gao family cannot raise waste."

Gao Jue laughed as he spoke, and the dog legs also started to shout.

"Young Master, your idea is too high. It's simply the rebirth of Zhuge Liang!"

"Stop talking nonsense, go and stop them, don't let these fat sheep run to Juzhou."

"As for order!" The senior high school senior rushed over quickly with his people, and the mules and horses ran together, quickly blocking the group of refugees.

"Stop it all, stop it if you hear it!"

The senior high school urged the horse to rush forward and knocked an old man over.

"Did you hear me? Old man, the third master has something to say!"

These vicious and evil guys were so scared that the refugees were timid and stood on the spot, trembling and did not dare to move!

Seeing these people so scared in his senior year, he was proud.

"What are you trying to do?"

"Uncle, the little people are going to Juzhou. I heard that the food there can be saved and a master!"

"Yes, please, let us go, we have nothing left."

"In the past? Why?" said the senior high school student with a smile: "Not only have good people in Juzhou, but there are no good people in Qi County? The third master tells you that Mr. Gao and Mr. Gao are all good people with kind hearts and cannot bear to suffer. The eldest master has already said that he wants to give up porridge and help you."

After hearing this, some refugees showed joy, while some people disagreed. The Gao family was in the most situation in their hearts. Could it be that a group of evil wolves could change their temperament?

"You don't have to believe it. The eldest young master comes here in person. Can he still lie to you? They are all from the villagers, and they can eat and drink at home. Why bother going outside to suffer?"

Seeing more and more people hesitating, the senior high school senior said with a smile: "Don't listen to them nonsense. Can that Duke Ji really treat everyone well? This is all a lie. After hearing about it, he sent you to the mine and was exhausted."

The senior high school spoke in his mouth, and finally fooled the common people. Then he smiled and said, "Don't stand stupidly, follow me quickly!"

These noble slaves drove the refugees to a bare valley like driving animals. Gao Jue had already set up a few big pots here and was cooking. There were noble slaves from the Gao family on both sides of the valley. When he saw the refugees walking in tremblingly, Gao Jue sneered on the corner of his mouth.

"God has the virtue of being a virtuous person. Our Gao family has developed a great kindness, but everyone cannot take care of it. Everyone is lined up, the young and the strong eat the food, the old and the weak get out!"

"Why?" a young man shouted: "I carried my mother on my back and finally escaped from the flood. If I don't give the old man food, will I still have filial piety? I won't eat it."

The young man was about to leave as he said, Gao Jue sneered and curled his lips. He whipped the war horse hard, and in a blink of an eye, he reached behind the young man and whipped it down hard. The old lady on her back was immediately sucked out of a blood mark.

"mother!"

The young man seemed to be crazy and put the old lady on the ground and was about to pounce on Gao Jue. At this time, several Hao Nu came over and pressed him directly to the ground, punched and kicked him, and pressed the young man on the ground.

Gao Jue waved his hand, and Haonu rushed into the crowd, and the older ones were pulled out one by one, and the children in their arms were also taken away.

"Beast, do you want us to be the last one? Can't we leave?" A pair of parents ran away with their children. As soon as they ran a few steps, Gao Jue rushed up. The boy held a long knife in his hand, gritted his teeth and inserted it into the woman's back. The tip of the knife penetrated out of his chest and stabbed the child in his arms. The blood was dripping with dazzling redness, and the two lives disappeared in an instant.

The man's eyes suddenly turned red, his teeth were broken, and he waved the wooden stick in his hand and hit Gao Jue. The man who had been hungry for many days had burst out with amazing strength at this time. He hit the horse's head with a stick. The left eyeball jumped out. The war horse was in pain and threw Gao Jue hard to the ground.

"Young Master! Big Master!"

A group of Haonu rushed up, and the man was still waving the wooden stick and hitting Gao Jue. Several Haonu waved their weapons and hacked the man to death on the spot.

When other people saw this, they had no intention of eating porridge. This was clearly the Hongmen Banquet!

"Hurry, run away!"

The refugees ran away, and the valley was suddenly in a mess. Gao Jue finally got up from the ground and stared at him, "What are you doing when you stand stupidly? Go quickly and kill all these people for me, and don't leave any of them!"

"Abide by the order!"

These slaves rushed up, killing and slashing, and the bodies kept falling down, and the blood stained the valley red. These slaves were all rascals. They killed people and looted them. Some simply caught a few women and took off their pants on the spot.

Just when Gao Jue was crazy, the soldier who was suddenly on guard was so scared that his butt was like he was urinating and rolled down the hillside.

"Young master, no, some officers and soldiers are coming!"

"Officers and soldiers, where are they?"

"I don't know! You can find a way!"

Just as he spoke, a rapid sound of horse hooves rushed over from the flanks, sweeping in the wind and sand. Along the way, all the knights drew out their shiny scimitars. Under the sunlight, they were like a mountain of swords.

"kill!"

Yue Polu took the lead and roared. The cavalry camp was like a gust of wind, rolling over the weak grass. Those slaves had no combat power. Once they charged, they would be killed and injured everywhere, and their broken limbs were everywhere.

At this time, the infantry brigade behind had gradually caught up, and these infantry were all composed of refugees.

"Did you see that those murderous thugs are the executioners who once bullied you, pick up your spears and kill them all!"

Gu Zhenhua urged the war horse and passed by everyone. The refugees were like chicken blood. They all had red eyes and roared loudly.
