Chapter 417 Reality is ruthless

The people are the most realistic. The reality is that they have milk. They welcomed the Liu family army at the beginning because the Liu family army brought them safety, but now they are no longer short of safety, only money. The Liu family army cannot get money for them, so they can only hope that they will be transferred.

These stupid ordinary people also believe in the propaganda of the government, that is, there are so many taxes at present. If they do not have to pay this military pay from the Liu family army, the tax will be greatly reduced, and various levies and various official taxes will be reduced. Therefore, these people spontaneously joined the ranks of boycotting the Liu family army's hope that he will follow.

Of course, no one dares to drive them away publicly. After all, Liu Bu is the general of Fengyang, and Yangzhou is his defense range. If he is unwilling to leave, no one can do anything to him.

But Liu Bu was not a person who looked at people's faces. Since the local people didn't welcome him very much, he also drove the camp north after entering the military camp outside the city for two days.

He did not send troops north to eliminate the bandits as required by the court and Wu Zongda, but went to Xuzhou Prefecture.

As the general of Fengyang, he had such a large area, so he had to have a place to settle down. Although the people in Yangzhou and the people in Jiangnan did not welcome him, it did not mean that the people in other places did not welcome them either, and they dared to urge them to leave.

So Liu Bu decided to go north to get rid of the state and then decide to stop. After arriving in Xuzhou, he was very mobile, whether he went north or south.

Of course, Liu Bu himself did not go north with the main force. His main force went north and was stationed in Xuzhou, while he himself took a boat and returned to Shandong by sea.

This time he came to Jiangnan, but he gained a lot of benefits. After gaining so many benefits, he was a little ignorant of the generalities when he stayed here. Since the court and local people all hoped that he would leave, he would leave.

However, Liu Bu sneered in his heart that you dare to drive me away, and one day you will regret it.

These stupid people, these stupid ordinary people, actually believe what the government said, are really brainless. If the Liu family army had not blocked them, there would be more taxes and levies. It was all because the Liu family army had blocked them. They didn't know what was going on and regarded the Liu family army as a burden for them. Since you made your own choice, he would start to retreat.

Of course, this kind of retreat is the retreat of the main force. He still has many troops and offices to stay here. After all, he is the General of Fengyang, responsible for guarding this area and has the right to garrison and garrison in this area.

The so-called garrison and staying at the garrison means that his food will still be released from this area. If the place does not, his Liu Bu's army will come to visit at any time.

Liu Bu will teach him how to be a noble person. Don’t think you are from a Jinshi or an official. I can tell you one thing. I have a soldier in my hands and feel unhappy. You can do whatever you want.

As a result, Liu Bu's army left, and Chen Wenruo, an officer in his local office, went to the prefect's office, and demanded that the two-month grain be distributed.

At first, Gao Wang thought he had heard it wrong, so he prepaid for two months of grain in advance. Are these soldiers crazy? In the Ming Dynasty, only the military arrears were arrears. If the border troops in the north were in a peaceful area, it would be normal for them to arrears for five or six months.

Now these stinky soldiers are not owed military pay and are paid on time. Instead, they have made their appetites difficult and wild. They dare to ask them to advance military pay in advance. I am afraid they are crazy about being poor?

If Liu Bu is here, Gao Wang still has some taboos, but after Liu Bu conflicts with them head-on, he didn't have any measures in the end, and just left in shame. This made Gao Wang full of confidence. With the great master Wu Ge Lao, I was afraid that Liu Bu would not succeed? Could it be that Liu Bu would not like to enjoy such a great wealth and dare to rebel? Gao Wang saw Liu Bu being a human with his tail between his legs, and he was no longer afraid.

Even when Liu's army left, he had already conspired to increase the amount of money, pay levy and various taxes. Who knew that he had not received his money? Liu's army first attacked him. He sneered and thought to himself, am I like such a good person to be cheated?

So without any doubt, Gao Wang directly rejected the request of these people, and he said, "No silver!"

The officer Chen Wenruo, who was in charge, sneered, and said, "Our general takes your high hopes seriously. You are just a person. If we don't take you seriously, you are just a bullshit. Now we are just informing you in advance, not asking you for food. At this moment tomorrow, we will not see the sound of food delivered to our military camp. Just wait and see the show."

After Chen Wenruo gave up this harsh words, he left with his strength. Gao Wang was very unhappy and very unhappy. If Liu Bu was there, he would be scared. But now even Liu Bu has left, and his main force and himself have left Yangzhou. What else can you threaten? The troops of these soldiers are fewer, and the boss is gone, but they become spirits? They are even more arrogant. Not only do they dare to ask him for food, but they also dare to advance their support in advance. Are they crazy?

If Liu Bu said this, he was still a bit taboo. He would be disdainful to say this, a small deputy Qianhu said this. If he hadn't heard that when he led ten people to pacify the civil war a few days ago, he would have dared to charge against thousands of mobs, killing the other party to cry and cry, and blood flowed into a river, which shocked Yangzhou City, he might have beaten up immediately.

Liu Bu's attitude was very firm when his main force withdrew from Yangzhou this time. Why do you say that? Because his main troops were all withdrawn from Yangzhou City, several generals under him also withdrew, and all the cannons and warships were also evacuated one by one. Only Chen Wenruo had more than 400 officers and soldiers, and more than 400 officers and soldiers were still guarding such a large place. To put it bluntly, it was equivalent to not.

Liu Bu was nominally the General of Fengyang. Since he was stationed in the local area, the local military pay must be provided by the local government. However, the local gentry had already made a calculation immediately, that is, military pay was required and could be obtained, but it must be calculated based on the head. That is to say, as many people you can come, you will be given as much as you can, instead of giving tens of thousands of military pay to you with a wave of your hand and saying that you have tens of thousands of people on your hands.

Gao Wang and others were sneering here. He was thinking that Liu Bu was probably crazy about being poor. He refused to be on duty in a colorful world like Yangzhou and left in shame. Since you have left and are so ignorant, I still want my official to send you military news, and I also want my official to pay you tens of thousands of people. I am crazy about being poor? I don’t even give you a single one.

Gao Wang was sneering, and he was thinking, "When Liu Bu was there, he could not do anything to him." Chen Wenruo's small deputy Qianhu could do what he could do. Although the other party had the nickname of Chen Yanwang and was valued by Liu Bu, he ordered him to stay in Yangzhou here, but a small deputy Qianhu official had only four or five hundred people under him, and he really didn't get into Gao Wang's eyes. Gao Wang directly forgot this person.

Gao Wang thought that after two days, he had to start collecting taxes and levies. If it could not increase taxes quickly, he would go to Beijing to take this year's Carbon Jingjing before the beginning of winter. It is estimated that the Beijing examination will be waiting for him. It is hard to say whether he can stay here.

He Gao Wang first made a sum of money, in order to ensure his position. Only by ensuring his position can he think of more ways to make greater money and fill this deficit.

Gao Wang now hates this Baiyun Zhenren, Fan Ruoshui and others. If there is no such incubation, he will be here, and eat and drink every day, how happy it is? How poor and destitute are like now?

However, Gao Wang's environment is still good. Although he borrowed a lot of money, no one dared to chase him. If Zhu Dadian was here in the past, he was afraid that Zhu Dadian would hold him accountable. Now Zhu Dadian avoided Wu Zongda and went to Fengyang. Even if he was an unattended man in this area, he had nothing to be afraid of except for the big guys in Nanjing City, which allowed him to prepare to make money peacefully.

Who knew that early the next morning, he heard the complaints from his subordinates. It turned out that Gao Wang sent his yamen runners to declare to the gentry in various townships and towns. The content of the announcement was nothing more than telling the court that it was about to wipe out the bandits and to wipe out the Jiannu, and 20% of the tents were collected. These 20% of the tents must be collected within this month, so that they could be prepared to wait for him to collect them quickly. Who knew that one of the yamen runners sent out was counted as one, and they were basically beaten by Chen Wenruo's soldiers. The other party was very fierce. When he saw his officers and soldiers and yamen runners, he directly beat them with big sticks, but they did not beat them to death, but they were also injured. The other party was so arrogant that they directly made these officers and soldiers and yamen runners dare not go out. They were worried that as soon as they went out, they would be beaten to death by the other party.

Gao Wang was shocked and angry, and he said, "So many of you have let them fight, are they using cannons or muskets?"

His subordinates said embarrassedly: "The other party just took a stick and did not use muskets or cannons."

Gao Wang became even more angry. The other party used sticks, and you also used sticks. Why do you let the other party press and beat them? Are your knifes all for a good meal? Liu Bu is no longer here. If you have anything to be afraid of, if they dare to hit you, you will hit you back. If something happens, I will bear it."

He said with a bitter face in his senior year of high school, "The villain dares not fight with King Chen Yan. You must know that he kills people without blinking."
