Chapter 881 It’s hard to prosper the people, and it’s hard to destroy the people
"Boss Fei! What...what should we do?"
Peng Hu was completely exhausted. He no longer had any ideas. In fact, he was not a particularly strong-willed person. After joining Feizhan, his life became easier.
But in the current situation...even if it is a waste stack, there is no idea.
After thinking for a long time, Fei Zhan raised his right hand high. In short... he gave up using force for the time being.
Seeing the other party like this, Yi Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a very wise decision. After all, if you really take action, I can guarantee that everyone present will not be able to walk out of this house alive."
But this time, Fei Zhan and Peng Hu rarely refuted.
Peng Hu seemed to be completely relaxed and scratched his head helplessly:
"The one among you who wields the gun must be more than just a follower, right? If someone like him can only serve as a follower of a businessman of yours, then it's really hard for me to imagine what your true identity must be.
It’s so noble.”
"Hey, your... name is Zhao Xiongyuan, right? You must have been on the battlefield too, right? If not, how could an ordinary person have such a soldier-like iron-blooded killing intention?"
Zhao Yun couldn't comment, he looked at Yi Xiaotian, and Yi Xiaotian took over the conversation.
"Of course you don't have to worry about his identity. I am indeed just a businessman now, so you don't need to mind too much."
"But as you said, Xiong Yuan has been on the battlefield... It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an enemy of ten thousand people, but this Peng Zhuangshi should have known this for a long time, right?"
"Because of this, it actually reveals that you no longer have the intention to kill - after all, giving up the distance advantage of the longbow encirclement and suppressing us, and leading us into our lair, doesn't it give Xiong Yuan the opportunity to kill every ten steps?"
Yi Xiaotian peeled off the cocoon bit by bit. He was stunned to see Sun Feng'er, Ying'er Ning'er and others. One of them was the daughter of a wealthy family, and the others were maids who had always stayed by the daughter's side. How had they ever seen so many secret games?
Just listening to Yi Xiaotian and the others' explanation is already overwhelming. How can I have time to talk?
Peng Hu and Fei Zhan shook their heads helplessly and said to the followers who were already at a loss:
"Go and warm tea for the guests and get the best tea."
"Um...yes!"
——
Finally, the situation became clear.
Because of the change in attitude, Yi Xiaotian was able to start normal communication with the other party.
Both parties cleared up their previous suspicions and spoke freely, and Yi Xiaotian finally knew some details about how these poor Shanyue people had been persecuted.
"They are all forced to make a living. If the world is peaceful, who would be willing to become a bandit?"
Peng Hu sighed.
He was just an ordinary hunter. He was able to shoot tigers before because he had stayed in the mountains for a long time and slowly developed his magical skills in order to protect the people around him. But apart from these, when he actually arrived on the battlefield, his performance was only
Describe it as a disaster.
"I've been offended so many times before... I just heard that person's name, and I felt scared... I really couldn't control it..."
"After all... After all, he killed all my relatives and tribesmen... I have never seen such a terrifying army... I can only say that for a mob like us, the elite troops of Soochow killed us like chickens."
Yi Xiaotian knew this well, he was talking about how he led troops to rebel, but was defeated by Dong Xi with only a small number of troops.
From then on, the name of Peng Hu, the leader of Shanyue, appeared briefly and then quickly disappeared.
His contemporaries include Yan Baihu, Zu Shan, Jin Qi and other Shanyue leaders - they are basically strong men who are supported by the poor under their respective leadership. However, the good times do not last long - just like that
Just like the Yellow Turbans, once real heroes appear, their army, which is composed of poor people who don't have enough to eat or wear, will be completely vulnerable.
This is the shadow of Peng Hu's life.
But-
"If this is the case, it seems that Peng Zhuangshi has not come down the mountain for a long time. I can only say that you may not have to worry anymore - because... Dong Xi has already been killed in the previous battle between Cao Cao and Sun Liu in Xiangyang.
Cao General Xu Chu was beheaded."
"What...what did you say...Dong Xi...Dong Xi is actually dead?"
This kind of news makes it really difficult for Peng Hu to understand... A brave man like Dong Xi was killed on the battlefield... So who is the Xu Chu who killed him?
At the mention of Xu Chu, Zhao Yun's arms felt numb - he had fought with Xu Chu many times before, and it was usually Zhang Fei who faced him. On the rare occasions when Zhao Yun faced off against that fierce opponent like a mountain of meat, this time he was always
You can only fall into the disadvantage.
Thinking about it this way, Dong Xi's defeat was indeed excusable.
Not to mention Yi Xiaotian... To a certain extent, Dong Xi's death was inseparable from him. After all, he was the one who ordered Xu Chu to guard the bridge alone.
"Well, it's true. Dong Xi is dead, and He Qi is not in Xindu now. If I guess correctly, he should be near Jianye now."
With just a few words, Yi Xiaotian once again cleared away the shadows in the hearts of the two of them.
In addition to these, Feizhan also added some:
"Jin Qi and Zu Shan were originally the leaders of this mountainous area with me, but they chose to confront He Qi head-on, and in the end they had to die - of course his subordinates scattered like birds and beasts, and those who did not want to fight with the Soochow people
Those who live together have chosen to join me."
Through this, Fei Zhan also told Yi Xiaotian some information that could not be collected elsewhere.
"Today's Shankoshi is actually no longer the one who dared to fight with officers and soldiers and was originally willing to fight for survival."
"One wrong step, one wrong step... Soochow people should be living and working in peace and contentment now, but we have lost the opportunity to integrate with them. Only I, and some brothers who stayed back then, helped many people build villages
——From Linli Mountain to Anle Mountain to the north of She County, there are about a dozen villages, with a total of less than 1,500 people. They are all a group of poor families. This is what we call "strength" or
'Remnants'."
Hearing this, Sun Feng'er was actually quite sad.
He did not expect that these Shanyue people were actually poor people. He just thought about the persecution they had suffered in the past, and the concept that was spread in the world and had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people... Shanyue was "evil", which was actually the absurdity of the world.
"Sir... I... I did something wrong... Brother Peng, Brother Fei, I... I'm sorry for you..."
"It's not your fault, it's the government's fault."
Yi Xiaotian looked at the aggrieved Sun Feng'er and rubbed his head.
When Fei Zhan and Peng Hu saw how pitiful Sun Feng'er was, they actually had no intention of blaming her.
"Miss Sun is indeed a kind-hearted person...but...this situation was definitely not caused by you, so there is no need to blame yourself too much."
How can anyone be born evil?
Harsh government is as fierce as a tiger, and the officials force them to do so, but the people will rebel.
The rise and fall of dynasties, the ups and downs of mountains and rivers, the only thing that remains unchanged is the "suffering of the people".
