37. Defending the Territory


The shouts of the people in the audience became louder and louder, more and more passionate, and endured for a long time.Wang Shuo waited for the shouts of the people in the audience to calm down, and said loudly: "Okay, since everyone is willing, we will elect a chief for every hundred households and come to the county government tomorrow."

You may have had a captain in the past, but that was appointed by the county lieutenants in the past, and they didn't do their duty, they didn't take everyone to get up and beat the bandits out, and they didn't necessarily really represent you, I can't trust them.I want you to elect your trusted leader, and let's discuss the plan together."

The common people of Zhangxian County suffered from the scourge of bandits, and then from the common people who fled from Ningyuan, they heard that the soldiers of King Chuang were worse than the bandits, and who did not care about their future fate That night, the people in the entire Zhangxian County almost did not fall asleep.Those who have the ability plan to run to a safer place now, but most of them are incapable, so they have to gather in groups of three or five to discuss the topic that Wang Shuo left for them during the day.In the end, he took the initiative to gather together in accordance with the regulations of the Ming Dynasty.The flock of geese without a head goose does not fly far, and it is easy to have a young general to be the leader for them, and only by organizing themselves and following Wang Shuo, the head goose, can they not be harmed by bandits and rebels, and can they save their lives.In just two days, the eighteen armor guards were elected, and they came to the county government together to discuss with Wang Shuo how to resist the enemy.Wang Shuo has also been thinking about how to use this place in Zhangxian County to establish his own base in the past two days, and he already has a preliminary plan in his mind.When the armor guards came, he first reassured them.He pretended to be easy and told them that as long as the people were willing to help, it would not be a problem to defeat the rabble of the invading army, who were similar to bandits.He fought bandits, and many people saw it with their own eyes, and the 3,000 bandits killed by more than 300 people could not form an army, and everyone trusted him very much because of this.Seeing that the armor chiefs all expressed their trust in him, waiting for him to make an idea, Wang Shuo began to make demands.Now, there is not much food in the hands of the people, and there is not much food gathered by the bandits in the county yali, about 100,000 catties.Everyone also had to hurry up to repair the city walls, and also build a backup base in a ravine farther away.In case the army is strong and Zhangxian County cannot be saved, it is necessary to consider transferring the people to the mountains, gradually resisting, dispersing the enemy, and destroying them one by one, so that they will not dare to enter Zhangxian easily.Therefore, first, it is necessary to organize the people to build all kinds of fortifications as soon as possible.Second, we must also let the people reclaim the surrounding wasteland, plant grain, and when the surplus grain is eaten, there will be new grain in the coming year, so that they will not go hungry.The armor guards said that there was a lot of wasteland around Zhangxian County, and it was completely possible to grow grain.However, those wastelands belong to their owners, and they are not allowed to plant.Wang Shuo said, no matter who it is, if you don't grow food and let the land be barren, it's a crime to leave it unified, and whoever plants it is who's whoever.If the landlord disagrees, let him come to me, and then someone proposes again, many tenants give the landlord to farm the land, the landlord only gives two cents of profit, and the famine year also has to pay rent, the common people are not willing to farm, it is better to do some small business, sell salt and still have something to eat.Wang Shuo said, this landlord is too bad, the common people can't farm and eat, who is willing to farm the land, you negotiate a reasonable rent distribution method, whoever collects more rent in the future, I will punish him, and besides, no rent is allowed in the famine year.Everyone thinks this method is good, but this must have an order from the court, and without an order, there is no basis for speaking.Wang Shuo thought about it and said, Li Zicheng will soon hit Beijing, and the court will soon be over, so we don't care about the court, some people were surprised: "This, isn't this a rebellion" Wang Shuo said: "Now the world is in chaos, how many people are rebelling, let's let the people eat, it's also called rebellion, then I'll just rebel" Someone echoed: "That is, the court is not towards our people, and if we rebel, we will rebel." ”Located in a small and remote county, the common people don't know what the imperial court is.Besides, the court has long been in chaos, and the world's kings have been the big ones by now the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the King Chuang, and Zhang Xianzhong, and the small ones are even more numerous.Most of the people agreed to throw the court aside first.However, if you want to give an order, you have to have a name, Wang Shuo thought about it: "Just call Longzhong the new law, Gongchang prefect surrendered, Longzhong has no Ming officials, I will call Longzhong the general of the land" Everyone listen, Wang Shuo is obviously going to rebel, but as long as he is for the people, whether he is a rebel or not, then first find someone to engrave the seal of the general of Longzhong.Wang Shuo said: "This is not possible.I can only take care of the military, I can't be busy, and one of you has to come out and take charge of the civil affairs.And choose one of you to be the magistrate. ”Everyone said in their hearts, this is good, choose the county order by yourself, this is equivalent to everyone following him to rebel, but the soldiers can't eat, and the rebellion is not a big deal, the court will take care of itself, and no one will take care of them.Everyone, you pushed me to let me, and finally elected a teacher to be the county magistrate.Mr.

Teaching was afraid that he would not be able to do it, so Wang Shuo asked the remaining armor chiefs to form a political participation meeting, and when there was a major matter, everyone would discuss and solve it.If the county order is not done well, everyone can correct it at any time, and if it really doesn't work, choose someone else to do it
