If hundreds of thousands of people rise up to resist, 10,000 Xiliang soldiers will definitely not be able to resist them.
In order to prevent the people from resisting, hundreds of thousands of people were divided into a hundred teams, each team containing several thousand people.
At the same time, the Xiliang soldiers were also divided into one hundred teams, each with one hundred soldiers.
The common people were staggering, tired and in rags. However, all the Xiliang soldiers were in high spirits. They were wearing armor, swords on their waists, and carrying whips in their hands. When they saw any common people slowing down, they immediately became excited.
They rushed up and whipped them a few times to urge the people to hurry up. In order to vent their evil spirits, some soldiers from Xiliang went to the people and whipped them randomly, beating them to death.
The soldiers in Xiliang were violent, but no people dared to stand up and resist.
The people had to take care of their families, which was a burden. They were afraid of involving their families, so even if they suffered a little bit, they endured it.
Wang Can took Pei Yuanshao and Wang Yue to patrol back and forth among the crowd, checking the situation of the people.
After walking around, there were countless people in mourning and infirm and sick. Wang Can looked at the people in ragged clothes and with bitter faces, and felt very sad for them. These are the people at the lowest level in troubled times. Human life is like a piece of grass, and they live a miserable life.
A life worse than pigs and dogs. Take the current situation as an example. The people were escorted to Chang'an by the Xiliang army like pigs and sheep, but they did not dare to resist, so they could only leave their homes and leave their homes.
Pei Yuanshao looked downcast and said, "Master, the situation is not optimistic. What should I do?"
Wang Yue also nodded. There were too many old, weak, women and children, and too many orphans and widows. This situation was not conducive to defeating the Xiliang soldiers.
Wang Can made a cold sound, glared at Pei Yuanshao, and shouted: "You're the one who's nosy, don't talk if you have nothing to do." After saying that, Wang Can ignored Pei Yuanshao and continued to walk forward. Wang Can saw an old man wearing a black cotton robe.
His hair was in a neat bun, his clothes were clean, and there were a few strong men around him to protect the old man's safety. He suddenly felt something in his heart.
He walked towards the old man and called out: "Old sir, please wait a moment!"
The old man looked back at Wang Can, and stopped the few strong men who wanted to stop Wang Can with his eyes. The old man stopped, and after Wang Can caught up with him, he slowly walked forward again. As he walked, he said: "
Young man, what's the matter?"
Wang Can asked: "Old sir, hundreds of thousands of people are migrating together. Where are they going?"
There was a trace of alertness in the old man's eyes and he asked: "Young man, you don't know where you are going?"
Wang Can nodded and said: "I was arrested on the way. I don't know what the Xiliang army did by arresting so many people. Are they arresting the people to catch strong men?"
The old man seemed to be touched by the pain in his heart, and sighed: "Hey, I am going to settle down in Chang'an."
When Wang Can heard this, he seemed very surprised and exclaimed: "No way, I live in Luoyang City. If I go to Chang'an to settle down, wouldn't it be like leaving my hometown and not being able to return to Luoyang?"
The old man deeply felt the same as Wang Can's words, with a sad look on his face, and said leisurely: "You think you are the only one who has left his hometown. My ancestors have lived in Luoyang for generations, and were driven out of Luoyang by the Xiliang army to go to Chang'an. Isn't this also the case of leaving my hometown?
." After a pause, the old man asked: "Seeing that you have sharp edges and corners and an extraordinary bearing, you should be a son of an official in Luoyang City, right?"
Wang Can had a look of surprise on his face and asked: "Old sir, how did you know?"
Pei Yuanshao laughed secretly when he saw Wang Can getting close to the old man and slowly getting information from the old man.
This old man actually regarded Wang Can as a son of an official from Luoyang. The old man smiled and stroked his white beard under his chin, and said: "You said you live in Luoyang City, and you are young, but you have an air of calmness about you.
You have the aura of self-respect that ordinary people don't have, so I guess you are a son of an official."
Wang Can nodded and said: "I admire the old gentleman's precise vision."
The old man shook his head and said: "It's just to see a few more people, it's nothing special. The poor old man is already old, and he was forcibly taken to Chang'an by the Xiliang army. He will die in Chang'an in the future and cannot return to his roots. His later life will be desolate.
!”
Wang Can listened to the old man's sigh, but his thoughts moved in his heart.
Judging from the old man's words, the old man definitely didn't want to leave Luoyang.
Moreover, there are people protecting the old man around him. From this point of view, the strength possessed by the old man should not be underestimated.
Wang Can thought for a while and said softly: "Old sir, I was forcibly pulled in to go to Luoyang. I saw at least 300,000 people being escorted. How come no one is willing to resist? If all the people are willing to resist
Xiliang soldiers, just Xiliang soldiers can't stop them at all, why is no one willing to escape?"
"Escape?"
The old man sneered and said with a smile: "You have just arrived. Don't make nonsense if you don't know the situation."
Wang Can asked: "Old sir, please give me some advice!"
The old man looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "The common people have their own sufferings. They have parents, wives and children. Once they resist the Xiliang soldiers, who will support their parents, wives and children after they are killed? And once they are found out by the Xiliang soldiers,
Whoever stands up to resist, the Xiliang soldiers will kill the family members of the resisters. In this situation, who dares to take the initiative to resist? No one is willing to take the initiative to die."
Wang Can said: "But the more this happens, the worse the situation becomes, and there is no chance of returning to Luoyang!"
The old man sighed and said: "The matter has come to this, what can we do now?"
Wang Can said: "From here to Chang'an, it will take a few days to reach Chang'an. The Xiliang soldiers are cruel and ruthless, killing people at every turn, and more and more people will be killed and injured. The next person to die is probably you and me. Instead of
In this case, it is better to fight with the Xiliang soldiers, there may be a glimmer of hope."
The old man said: "Young man, you think too simply. You can't resist just because you want to."
Wang Can said: "If you don't resist, there is nothing you can do."
The old man sneered: "You want to go back to Luoyang, so you want to encourage everyone to take the initiative to resist!"
There was no trace of embarrassment on Wang Can's face, but he said confidently: "The old man's eyes are bright, and the younger generation really wants to return to Luoyang. But I am not the only one who thinks so about returning to Luoyang. I believe everyone also wants to return to Luoyang, where I belong."
The place where my ancestors have lived for generations, instead of setting foot on a strange land, and having to endure the overbearing and arrogant bullying of the Xiliang army, I simply cannot live like this."
"This young man is right!"
"Yes! Yes, the Xiliang soldiers are too fierce."
…
Invisibly, more and more people gathered around the old man and Wang Can. As they walked, these people listened to what Wang Can and the old man said. Wang Can glanced at the people around him with his peripheral vision, and saw that the people's eyes were all on them.
Regarding the old man, he felt something in his heart. It seemed that the old man's identity was indeed extraordinary and his prestige among the people was also very high.
As long as the old man is tempted, he will have a chance.
"Huh!"
Wang Can suddenly saw a middle-aged man standing on the left with sinister eyebrows and gloomy eyes. The middle-aged man's eyes were very bright, his black eyeballs kept moving, and he had a goat's beard under his chin, which made him look very vulgar. The middle-aged man looked carefully.
He looked at Wang Can carefully, then glanced at the old man with a fearful expression, as if he had memorized Wang Can's appearance.
"A spy from the Xiliang soldiers!"
Wang Can was alert and immediately rushed to the left.
When the middle-aged man saw Wang Can rushing over, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he immediately prepared to withdraw from the crowd.
Wang Can snorted coldly, and formed his hands into claws, like an eagle pounced. When the middle-aged man was about to hide in the crowd, his hands grabbed the middle-aged man's shoulders. Wang Can used both hands hard, and the strength of the injury made the middle-aged man
People were yelling, but Wang Can didn't care how the middle-aged man yelled, and shouted in a cold voice: "If you want to leave, come back!"
"Let me go, why are you arresting me?"
The middle-aged man was thrown to the ground by Wang Can. His shoulders were still aching, and his face showed a look of grief and anger.
Seeing Wang Can's sudden attack, the old man asked in a deep voice: "Young man, he is mine, what do you mean by suddenly grabbing him?"
Wang Can clapped his hands and said: "Old sir, I just saw this man hiding and eavesdropping with a stern look on his face. When he heard the news that I wanted to take the initiative to resist the Xiliang soldiers, he immediately prepared to leave. Judging from his behavior,
He must have been bribed by the Xiliang army and came here specifically to inquire about the news."
"What, he was bribed by the Xiliang army?"
A cold look flashed in the old man's eyes, and he asked: "Third brother, is what he said true?"
The middle-aged man stood up with bared teeth, glanced at Wang Can viciously, then lowered his eyes and cried: "Grandpa, don't you know who I am? How could I do such a heartless thing? This
He looks very sanctimonious. On the surface he wants to return to Luoyang, but in fact he has evil intentions and wants to instigate everyone to rebel against the Xiliang soldiers and die. Grandpa, this man should be handed over to the Xiliang soldiers and let the Xiliang soldiers deal with him. We also
It’s great to receive the reward.”
The old man asked: "Receive the award, what award do you receive?"
The middle-aged man showed a hint of joy on his face and said: "Grandpa, if you hand over a person who attempts to resist the Xiliang soldiers, you can get a lot of money. A person is worth a lot of money! Grandpa, please give the order to live him up."
"
The middle-aged man looked at Wang Can proudly, his vulgar expression even more disgusting.
Wang Can's nerves became tense and he was on alert. Wang Yue and Pei Yuanshao also stood behind Wang Can, waiting for an opportunity.
The old man's expression was gloomy, and his eyes did not fall on Wang Can. Instead, he stared at the middle-aged man with a look of grief and anger on his face. After being silent for a while, the old man reached out and slapped the middle-aged man.
"Nie Zhan, how dare you say that you have not been bribed by Xiliang soldiers."
The old man's expression was cold, his eyes were like lightning, and he slapped the middle-aged man to the ground.
Wang Can breathed a sigh of relief. He stood nearby and saw the old man showing off his power, and became even more determined that the old man was not an ordinary person. Especially when the old man was angry, the aura exuded from his body was so majestic and powerful that Wang Can was stunned.
"Crash!"
The middle-aged man fell to the ground, and a small, round bag suddenly fell out of his body.
The small bag rolled on the ground, and pieces of red gold rolled out of the small bag.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man had an anxious look on his face. He immediately reached out his hand to pick up the small bag.
However, the old man suddenly stepped forward, stood in front of the middle-aged man, and shouted: "Beast, you have nothing to say now. With your ability, you can earn so much gold? Humph, it seems that in the past two days
It was you who informed the Xiliang soldiers about the deaths of the tribesmen, which led to the deaths of several tribesmen. You are also a member of the tribe, and you actually sold your ancestors to seek glory. It seems that you are tired of living."
After a pause, the old man shouted: "Here, send him on his way."
After the old man finished speaking, two strong men nearly 1.9 meters tall came out. One of the two men held the middle-aged man's arms, and the other took out a tissue from his sleeve and blocked the middle-aged man's mouth.
, quickly dragged the middle-aged man down.
The old man looked lonely and said: "My family is unfortunate, which makes me laugh."
Wang Can said: "The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds. It is normal for scum to appear who sell their ancestors for glory. Old gentleman, don't worry about it."
After a pause, Wang Can asked: "I wonder what your surname is, sir?"
