In the middle of the threshing floor, a man in a robe was speaking loudly, "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs!" We worship the heavens, but the heavens do not take care of us! For several years in a row, the rain has not fallen, and the fields can catch the soil foam with their hands, and the fields are so dry that they can't grow crops at all! Tang Enbo, the chief executive of the four provinces of Lusu, Henan, and Anhui, not only did not sympathize with the people, but in the year of the catastrophe, he increased taxes and arrested strong men, which became more and more intense! Don't give us the peasants of southern Henan a way to live at all! ”

"The guerrillas in the Henan-Hubei border area are fighting against Japan under the sign of resisting Japan, robbing men and women, extortion, kidnapping tickets and robbing all kinds of evil! Last month, Zhang Laosan of our village married his daughter-in-law, the bride and groom were worshipping heaven and earth, and the guerrilla brigade from the Henan-Hubei border area came. These national soldiers are good, after getting drunk, they rush to the bride and leave! It took three days to call someone to spread the word, saying that Zhang Laosan was asked to take a hundred yuan to redeem his wife! When Zhang Laosan borrowed all the people he knew, he collected enough 100 yuan to send them over, but the bride asked those mourning consciences to be ruined to death! Zhang Laosan vomited blood when he got home, and his father and mother were all angry to death in less than ten days! ”

Zheng Guotai shrank his neck, did anyone recognize him? Why does the person in it seem to be talking about himself?

"Is this still the army? This is clearly a bandit! Bandits more brutal than the Japanese! Since ancient times, the government has forced the people to rebel, they don't let us live, and we won't let them live well! We peasants are not willing to starve to death with our necks stretched! I don't want to let them bully to death! Old and young masters, there are bloody, and if you don't want to be bullied to death, let's go find them! Go to the guerrilla headquarters to find their commander-in-chief and ask him how he led the troops! Go to Towneburgh and ask him how he manages his subordinates! If they don't care, let's go to Chongqing to find the chairman of the committee to complain! ”

"Look for them! Don't let them bully people anymore! Someone in the crowd responded, but most of them couldn't hear it. The few who took the lead in shouting only made a sound and didn't show their heads, looking very much like To!

"Old and young masters of Zhaojiagang, why don't you say sonar? Do you still want to continue to live such a hard life and continue to be bullied by those so-called national troops? Zhao Hongyuan! You are the village chief of Zhaojiagang, you stand up and say something, what are you going to do in Zhaojiagang? Seeing that no one was participating, the speaker was a little unhappy, so he simply stirred up people in the crowd.

"Mr. Wang, I can understand what you say. But I'm just an illiterate peasant, and I can only pick up hoes and tend to crops in the fields all my life, and I don't know what to do with the things you said. You say a charter, I'll go back and discuss with the people in the village, if it wins, we Zhaojiagang will follow it, if not, then it will be as if there is nothing to do tonight, and the big guys will go back to their respective homes to sleep. ”

"Want me to tell me a charter? That's easy to do, Zhao Jiagang gathered all the young and middle-aged men, followed me to the guerrilla headquarters in the Henan-Hubei border area, went to find their commander-in-chief, He Zhanghai, and asked him to punish the traitors and eliminate the evil, and get rid of those scum who have done a lot of evil! Then go to Tang Enbo's office of the governors of the four provinces, find Commander Tang, ask him to take back his orders, strictly investigate his subordinates, stop arresting strong men indiscriminately, severely punish officers and soldiers who violate laws and disciplines, and leave a way for us farmers in southern Henan to live! Mr. Wang impassionedly explained the path he would take in the future.

"Then you can't just call us from Zhaojiagang Village, right? How many young men are there in our village? If people don't want to do it, won't all of us have to be arrested? "There has been a drought for many years, the crops in the field can't grow, the young and strong men in the village have gone to the west exit to break through the east to the South Seas, and the rest of the people have to deal with Tang Enbo and He Zhanghai taking turns to catch the strong men, and there are really not many men in Zhaojiagang.

"Of course, not only you Zhaojiagang, but also Yangdian, Shangtun, Gaomiao, dozens of villages and towns, and tens of thousands of farmers participated." The one in the middle in a robe waved his hand, "We Zhuanghu people just want to unite and twist into a rope to do a great cause, to alarm the governors of the four provinces, to alarm the central government!" Seek a way out for the people of southern Henan! ”

It turns out that someone here is organizing the victims and preparing to turn them into a mob! After listening to it for a while, Zheng Guotai felt a cool breath rise from his heart, God, these people want to rebel! In history, whether it was the uprising of Zhang Jiao at the end of the Han Dynasty, or the uprising of Huangchao at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zicheng at the end of the Ming Dynasty, or the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom of the Qing Dynasty, which time did not kill countless people, and millions of people died. In an uprising, the land of China will be shaken by a great shock, and the Chinese nation will face a danger of life and death. Are these people ready to create a tragedy of extermination for this country and this nation?

Seeing that a new peasant uprising was about to break out in front of his eyes, Zheng Guotai, who had read history and knew that peasant uprisings could cause great harm to the country, trembled. What to do? Did he order Wang Hua to immediately lead the soldiers to rush in and kill the leader of the peasant army who was bewitching the people? But looking at the black and dense crowd around him, Zheng Guotai's scalp was numb, he was afraid that before he killed the leader of the uprising, countless people around him would be able to trample his thirty or so people into meat sauce!

Zheng Guotai was thinking about things here, and he didn't pay attention to the extent of the speech in the field. Wang Hua is only taking care of Zheng Guotai's safety, as long as no one can threaten Director Zheng, how does he know what the director is thinking?

It wasn't until a ** voice shouted his name that Zheng Guotai recovered from this state of being confused. "Brother Cathay, is Brother Cathay you?" There was a ** shout and walked over to the place where Zheng Guotai was standing.

Cathay Brothers? Is this calling me? Why is this so strange? Zheng Guotai opened his confused eyes and followed the sound, and saw that several people were walking in this direction, and the surrounding black crowd also turned around to look at him! Broken, discovered! Zheng Guotai hurriedly turned his head to find Wang Hua, and when he turned around, he saw Wang Hua standing three steps away from him, staring at him.

"Brother Cathay! I shouted to you, why didn't you agree? Mr. Wang is waiting for our village to give an answer, do you think our Zhao Jiagang will participate in Mr. Wang's big event? The visitor stood two steps away and stopped and asked Zheng Guotai.

The dim lantern illuminated this person's face, and Zheng Guotai recognized it, this was Zhao Hongyuan, the village chief of Zhaojiagang.

Do you want to discuss with me if your village participates in the peasant uprising? Zheng Guotai didn't know what Zhao Hongyuan meant, he just looked at Village Chief Zhao blankly, but his hand was behind his back and he was holding the gun tightly, I don't know why, Zheng Guotai was a little nervous in the face of this illiterate village chief.

"Brother Cathay, you should have an idea!" Village Chief Zhao walked up to Zheng Guotai in a few steps as he spoke, and looked directly into Director Zheng's eyes, which contained an indescribable meaning.
