44. People Power


The next battle in Zhangxian County made all the people of Zhangxian find the confidence to defeat the Shun army, and their trust and worship of Wang Shuo also reached a peak.Five thousand Shun troops, killed by three thousand Wang Shuo's regular army, although the Ming army also lost nearly half, but the common people still have no reason not to believe that Wang Shuo can lead them to hold Zhangxian, and even defeat the Shun army, liberate the entire Longzhong.Originally, the common people were worried that Wang Shuo would not be able to stand in Zhangxian and would be driven away by the Shun army or other forces, so the new land law he promulgated would also become invalid.Even if the rent is reduced, the common people are not very motivated, and some are even afraid that after Wang Shuo leaves, the landlord will turn over the old accounts and take back the land and refuse to plant, thinking that he will still pay rent to the landlord according to the share of the previous land reform.Now it is completely different, when the new grain comes down, the common people will pay the rent according to the four cents stipulated in the new land law, and the landlords will not be able to do it more, but the landlords will be honest, and they will not dare to collect more rent, and they will not need to be urged by the officials who collect taxes, so they will pay the land tax to the county government office as early as possible to obtain the tax certificate.The wasteland around Zhangxian County has been reclaimed piece by piece, and it is expanding every day.Whoever drives it is who's who, only paying two sub-rents, what a good thing Since Wang Shuo can't leave, why not reclaim the countryside The people in the village are more enthusiastic, and many villages that Liang Min has not had time to take care of, take the initiative to send representatives to find her, asking her to go to them to carry out land reform.Later, Liang Min was too busy, so she found someone to be rigid, and directly printed a copy of the new land law and election platform for them, and asked them to go back and do it herself, and then she trained people to guide her.The entire Zhangxian County, including the surrounding areas where the Shun army did not reach, organized themselves to submit to Wang Shuo, and even the areas ruled by the Shun army, and many villages took the initiative to organize against the Shun army under the influence of Zhangxian County.A large number of young people came to the city and offered to join the army.Wang Shuo didn't want to expand his team too much, first, the food was limited and the territory was small, so he couldn't feed so many troops; second, weapons and equipment can't keep up; Third, there are not so many people training the new army.He kept the regular army at about eight thousand, recruited another three thousand new troops as reserves, and then no longer recruited new soldiers.Zhangxian County is already in the deep mountains, the terrain is barren, the population is sparse, and if you recruit soldiers, I am afraid that there will be no strong labor for farming.He asked Liang Min to organize militias in various villages, and he was busy working in the fields to supervise the implementation of the new land law and defend his family's victorious achievements.When the Shun army and bandits invaded the village, they organized themselves, fortified the walls and cleared the wilderness, did not leave a grain of grain for the enemy, covered the villagers to retreat to the mountains, and tried to protect the safety of the villagers as much as possible.He tried to recall in his mind what he remembered about the knowledge of guerrilla warfare invented by the great man, and he found Xiucai to compile what he had recalled into a booklet, which was then printed in large quantities and distributed to the leaders of each village as part of his wartime guidance on rural work.When the peasants did not have a leader, they were scattered and trampled up, and when they were truly organized, they would burst out with great strength and wisdom, which was also the reason why Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was able to develop in a short period of time.At that time in Henan, people heard that King Chuang did not pay for food, and many farmers in villages and towns looked through their eyes, looked forward to the stars, and hoped for the moon to come to them and lead them to rebel."

I am afraid that I will not be able to become myself", and "tens of thousands of people will become self-formed".It is a pity that Li Zicheng was not able to properly guide and use this tremendous enthusiasm and strength.Under the leadership of literate people, the peasants around Zhangxian County learned the things in Wang Shuo's booklet, drew inferences from one another, and soon invented many ways to deal with the Shun army.Later, the Shun army of 1,000 people was no longer good.Without waiting for the village, there were constant blows along the way, to the vicinity of a village, before entering the village, people from other villages rushed over, there were thousands of people at once, and there was nowhere to run Wang Shuo listened to the deeds of the villages to resist the attack of the Shun army, and couldn't help but sigh that the great man's thought was really brilliant and great, and he didn't even learn the things of the great man's skin, just with that little impression, he could let the people exert such great strength, and he finally believed that President Jiang's eight million army died not unjustly at all, The power of the people is infinite, he told his officers about this feeling, to the civil officials, and to Liang Min, repeatedly, it is a concept: stand on the side of the people, always put the interests of the people first, no matter how weak you are, you are strong; No matter how strong the enemy is, you will finally defeat him in front of the people, President Chiang's eight million troops with aircraft and artillery are all scum, a small Lu Wenbin, what is 30,000 people:
