Happy Little Scholar

The situation in Cangzhou has always been tense. Strangers who pass by the village on weekdays will be questioned if they stay in the village for a long time. They cannot help but be careless, because there are too many lessons learned from the past. If they are negligent, they may be in trouble. It will cause the destruction of the entire village.

However, the villagers did not take much precaution against these people who appeared in Dongjia Village today.

They are not from the government, nor are they bandits who come down from the mountain. Neither the government nor the bandits will provide free medical treatment, free medicine, or distribute their food to the villagers. If such people are bad people, Then they hope to encounter such bad people every day.

The young man handed a few pills to the woman and warned: "Sister-in-law, this child just suffered a little cold. Remember when making the medicine, boil three bowls of water into one bowl. After drinking these pills, everything will be fine." , let’s wait and see again in two days.”

"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor for saving our child..." When the woman reached out to take it, her eyes filled with tears, and she knelt down for them again. The young man hurriedly helped her up.

A man held his hand and said firmly: "We have nothing to repay our kindness. As long as it is useful, just open your mouth. I, Dong Dahai, will go up mountains of swords and seas of fire without frowning." !”

The young man smiled, shook his head and said, "We are ordered by the Queen of Heaven to relieve the sufferings of the people. This is to accumulate virtue and do good deeds. If we want to repay you, wouldn't we be damaging the merits of the Queen?"

The man was stunned for a moment and asked: "Dare I ask my benefactor, the Queen of Heaven that my benefactor mentioned..."

A trace of solemnity appeared on the young man's face, and he said: "The Queen of Heaven is the embodiment of kindness and benevolence. Under her teachings, we punish the strong and eradicate evil, save the world and save people, wipe out the injustice in the world, and accumulate blessings for the Queen..."

"Thank you, the Queen of Heaven, thank you, the Queen of Heaven..." After hearing this, the man pulled the woman beside him to kneel down, and kowtowed respectfully in a certain direction.

After they stood up, the young man looked at him and asked: "I heard that there is a group of fierce bandits nearby, who commit rape, robbery, and do all kinds of evil. We, on the order of the empress, want to go and get rid of them. Do you know what this is called?" Where are the "One-Eyed Tiger" bandits now?"

"One-eyed tiger!" When the man named Dong Dahai heard this name, he clenched his teeth and a look of resentment appeared on his face.

He gritted his teeth and said, "They were the ones who rushed into the village a few days ago and robbed our food!"

The young man looked at him and asked, "So, do you know where those people are?"

"I know, of course I know!" The man nodded, shook his head violently, looked at him, and said anxiously: "My dear friend, this must not be done. There are dozens of brothers under the one-eyed tiger, all with different skills. As the saying goes, even the government can't do anything about them. If you go, you're simply going to die!"

The young man didn't take it seriously at all and said: "It doesn't matter, you just need to tell me where the one-eyed tiger is."

The man's face changed for a while, and after a while, a stern look appeared in his eyes, and he said: "My dear friend, you saved my Xiaoyun's life. If there is no food, our family will only starve to death..."

His eyes gradually became firm and he said: "If you want to find the mountain patrol tiger, please take me with you!"

"And I!"

"Count me in!"

"Both of you are dead. Even if I die in the hands of a patrolling tiger, it would be better than starving to death! At the very least, I can have someone on my back before I die!"

…

More than a dozen men poured in from outside, and they stood behind Dong Dahai in excitement.

The entire village has no food at all. After today, even if they are not killed by those bandits, they will slowly starve to death. It is better to follow these people and fight for a chance of survival.

In this world, your life is all your own!

The young man looked at them and said, "Everyone, please think carefully. If you go this time, you may never come back again..."

The person standing at the front shook his head and said with a sad smile: "That's better than a whole family starving to death!"

The villagers of Dongjiacun walked up and said: "Even if our benefactor doesn't come, we still have to fight with them. Only after fighting can we survive. If we don't fight, then the whole village will have to go together." died……"

The young man thought for a moment, but did not refuse. He nodded and said, "Then let's go together."

Dozens of young men from Dongjiacun took out hoes and shovels from their homes, put them on their shoulders, and followed the young man out of Dongjiacun, heading in a certain direction with great momentum.

No one is afraid of death. In the past, they couldn't even think of resisting those bandits, but it's different now. If they don't resist, they will only die of starvation.

They have been forced to a corner and have only two choices, resist or die.

If you don’t want to die, you can only resist.

Fortunately, they still have helpers. These benefactors don't seem to be ordinary people. There are about ten people. Plus, they are not much behind the one-eyed tiger in terms of number.

Dongjiacun.

In order to save the whole village, all the young people in the village have mobilized to fight to the death with the most powerful bandits nearby, vowing to take back their food.

The old, weak, women and children all stayed in the village, standing at the entrance of the village, silently looking in a certain direction.

A young child huddled in his mother's arms, raised his head and asked, "Mom, what did daddy do?"

The woman lowered her head and said softly: "Dad, they are looking for food for us. If we find food, we won't have to go hungry in the future..."

…

Ruyi City.

Li Yi looked down, Yang Liuqing, Old Man Wang, Wei Liang, Chen Qing and several deputy generals were all there, even Miss Liu Er found a seat at the back.

He nodded, turned around and knocked on the blackboard, and said, "Now let's start the class."

"Today, we are talking about the timing of rebellion." He cleared his throat and continued, "The timing of rebellion is very important. Think about it, is there anyone rebelling in Jingguo now?"

"No one dares to rebel in Jingguo. Why? Because Jingguo is strong, people's livelihood is stable, and people live and work in peace. They have nothing to do after eating, so why do they rebel?"

Wei Liang nodded thoughtfully, and Li Yi pointed at him and said, "General Wei, answer this question, why is there no one rebelling in Qi?"

"There was a rebellion in Qi." Wei Liang thought for a while and said, "A few years ago, the eldest prince of Qi was bewitched and wanted to rebel in Qi. The implementation of the "discussing silver for crimes" law caused domestic unrest, and officials from several states rebelled, involving a wide range of people. Later, they were suppressed forcefully..."

"Sit down!"

Li Yi glared at him and said, "The example of the failed rebellion in Qi tells us that rebellion must also be based on principles. When a country is still strong, blindly rebelling will definitely pay a heavy price..."

"The so-called timing of rebellion, that is, the times, must meet several prerequisites. The world is in chaos, the people are living in poverty, the court is untrustworthy, and the rebels are rising... Obviously, this is the current situation in Wu State."

...

Li Yi later found that it was not easy to change their thinking based on the words on paper alone.

Old man Wang was okay, after all, he was an elite among scholars, but military generals like Wei Liang and Chen Qing had a hard time understanding.

It just so happened that they should know these things the most.

So he could only go back to his old job and open a small class for King Jing, explaining to them for half an hour every day. Judging from the results of the lectures in the past few days, the effect was not bad.

He looked at the people below who were suddenly enlightened, and spoke again.

"Before rebelling, you need to understand the main contradiction in a region, whether it is between the people and the government, the people and the gentry, or the people and the bandits. Only by figuring out the main contradiction can you know what to do next and gradually expand your team..."

...

Cangzhou, Dongjia Village.

A group of old, weak, women and children quietly guarded the entrance of the village, silent until the sun was about to set...

Suddenly, a voice shouted loudly: "They are back! They are back!"

Everyone was refreshed, and when they looked up, they found a group of people walking out from a distance.

They saw their men and sons walking into the village happily, with smiles on their faces, and everyone carrying a big cloth bag on their shoulders...
