The Reborn Wife is Farming

Qi Haoran was a little frustrated, because Shu Wanniang said that Mu Yang hadn't had a decent birthday at such an age, and wanted to give her a decent birthday gift when she was twelve years old.

Qi Haoran volunteered to take over this important task. It was planned to be done in the Qi Mansion of Hanzhong Mansion. He invited a few people he knew well to come and play together. The most important thing was to let Mu Shi spare time to attend his daughter's birthday. present.

Qi Haoran even prepared a big gift for her, but now because he is going to rehabilitate Tongchuan, it is impossible for him to participate.

Frustrated, he went to Mu Yangling and told her the bad news.

Mu Yangling's mind was not on this, she heard that Qi Haoran became the first general to lead an army to be rehabilitated, her first thought was that Qi Haoran was going to be recorded in the annals of history, um, the kind that was scolded by later generations—— Feudal rulers suppress peasant uprisings!

The second thought is, if Qi Haoran kills the common people, will it harm his virtue?

So, Mu Yangling persuaded him sternly, probably meaning that rehabilitating is rehabilitating, but those are poor people, and they can be let go as soon as they can. The key is not to kill the old, weak, women and children.

Qi Haoran rolled his eyes and said: "Is the Lord such a cruel person?" He said with a dark face: "But if they also participated in the rebellion, killing people and stealing goods, I will definitely not let them go."

"They are just ordinary people, how could they kill and rob?"

"How is it impossible?" Qi Haoran was very unhappy with Mu Yangling's arbitrariness, and said, "Many wealthy households in Tongchuan were robbed, and many families were killed, and several of them had a good reputation in the countryside. , and usually do good deeds.”

What Qi Haoran didn't tell Mu Yangling was that almost none of the men from those families survived, and all the women's family members were ruined, and all of them committed suicide.

If Qi Haoran was somewhat resistant to rehabilitating at the beginning, then now he wants to hurry up and rush to Tongchuan.

Mu Yangling couldn't refute for a while, and said after a while: "There are good people and bad people everywhere, and there are naturally scum among farmers, but you can't deny that there are also many good people among them."

"Will good people rebel?"

"When pushed to the extreme, even a saint can't help but want to rebel. Haoran, watching his relatives starve to death one by one in front of him, unless he is a ruthless and cold-blooded person, no matter how generous his heart is, he will be ground into hatred." meaning."

Qi Haoran was silent, thinking that there were more or less people rebelling everywhere, he also became a little dazed for a while.

Mu Yangling patted him on the shoulder and said: "As long as you have a clear heart, Haoran, when you go to rehabilitate, you only need to kill the leader and the evildoers. If no one encourages them, they will disperse." Now, those old and weak women and children will let them live."

Qi Haoran complied, but when he arrived in Tongchuan, he realized that the situation was more complicated than he imagined, and the rebellion was not all in one group.

The rebel team in Tongchuan is roughly divided into three factions. The first faction has the largest number of people, reaching more than 40,000 people. Qi Haoran, who only brought 20,000 people over, was a little nervous at first, but when he heard about their composition, Qi Haoran Instantly relieved.

Of the more than 40,000 rebels, only 10,000 are young and middle-aged, and the remaining 30,000 are all old and weak women and children. The younger ones are three or four years old, and the older ones are in their sixties. Rush in and grab it and leave, never leave a grain of rice, but only hurt people and not kill.

According to the survey statistics, in their many operations, the most seriously injured person from the imperial court was a broken leg. Qi Haoran didn't even ask about the specific situation, and the scouts who came to report told him what happened vividly.

This group of people felt like magic soldiers, as if they had fallen from the sky, and the imperial army had never been able to figure out their whereabouts. When they sent troops to guard the grain depot in this county, they bypassed several counties and headed directly towards the I went to a county, and when the imperial army and yamen servants rushed over again, no one was there, only more than a hundred defenders in the grain depot were bound and thrown in the grain depot.

The one who was injured the most was because he had been tied up for a long time. When he stood up, he fell and accidentally broke a bone.

"Little general, do you think they are like divine help? Now they have robbed three granaries, but the prefect of Tongchuan has not even found their shadow." The scout said excitedly.

Qi Haoran glared at him, and said: "What's so difficult about this? Tongchuan has countless fork roads, plus the jungle is densely covered. There are so many old people among the 40,000 people. I don't know how many passages the court doesn't know. As for those people in the yamen," Qi Haoran gritted his teeth and said, "their actions don't shy away from others, I'm afraid people will know which grain depot they are guarding after a little inquiry."

"But what I admire is that the leader can control 40,000 people. When he rushed into the grain depot, no one was hurt, and there was no looting when the grain was moved." The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, the young and middle-aged, women and children, such a mixed group are most likely to have conflicts and casualties, and the leader can control it.

Since this faction had never killed anyone, Qi Haoran didn't want to kill them, he decided to deal with the other two factions first.

The other two factions are almost entirely composed of young and middle-aged people. One is what Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling said, robbing wealthy households and killing them all. Eight years old, with a total of more than 2,400 people, this person not only robbed wealthy households, but also the villages he passed by, and some villages were even massacred. Not as good as him.

So Qi Haoran's first target was him, he would not let anyone who participated in murder and rape be spared.

The third faction is much more normal, a typical rebellion.

The leader is Jiang Zhong, a native of Tongchuan Jiangyou, almost the first faction. As soon as the first faction robbed the county government and the granary, he took 400 people to pick up the bargain in the back, directly occupied the county seat, and then took the original government servants Incorporated with the young and strong in the city, gathered 1,700 people, and occupied another county before the court recovered. His characteristic is to attack the city. This kid has a talent for rebellion. , opened the spare small granary of the county government, and then appeased the people, and forced the rich households in the county to reward his army with food, grass and silver. Randomly killed people.

According to the estimate of the damage, Qi Haoran put this faction in the second place to deal with it, and planned to take back the county government that Jiang Zhong had occupied after Feng Yu was dealt with.

But the magistrate doesn't think so. He thinks that Jiang Zhong is the most harmful, followed by the 40,000 people who can't see the end of the dragon, and finally Feng Yu.

Qi Haoran was never the one who succumbed to civil officials, so he told him directly that he was fighting this battle, so he had to listen to him.

The prefect of Tongchuan was choked, pointing at Qi Haoran, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
