Chapter 20 The Trickster

Yangcun.

On the canal embankment that leads directly to the capital.

“The river flows eastward!

The stars in the sky are the Big Dipper!

…”

Yang Feng, who was standing high on the carriage, howled while beating the drum.

"Yola hey~ yah~ yah..."

Around him were neat accompaniment.

However, this is someone else's boatman's trumpet, and it was not intended to accompany him.

Pulling fibre requires commands like the army, even more neat than the army at this time. Everyone's pace must maintain the same rhythm. Only in this way can they use force in a neat way, and only in this way can they ensure the stable course of the ship behind them. The trumpet they shout is the command when they act. Under this command and the instinct formed day after day, even their pace can always be consistent.

It's like a mechanical one.

But at this time, these boatmen were not pulling heavy grain transport ships, but pushing chariots for the soldiers.

Huge side van.

Small light car, lighter cannon car.

In their neat steps, we kept moving forward.

In this world covered with snow, chariots formed a moving city wall along the embankment, and around this city wall were countless accompanying people. These poor people in the bottom of the ragged clothes gathered into a torrent that swept forward, constantly swallowing the white of snow. Many people even walked on the snow-covered ice surface in the embankment. This season, the arteries of this embankment were completely frozen into a road.

There were also a large number of porters behind them, carrying pots and pans on their shoulders...

Well, this is the logistics team.

From Yinerwan to Zhangjiawan, it currently takes at least three days to walk in this kind of road condition, and it still takes one day to go from Zhangjiawan to Beijing. Even if there is no accident, they will have to four days to arrive in the capital to meet the emperor.

Of course, we have to ensure logistics supply along the way.

"I saw unfairness on the road and shouted.

Take action when it's time to take action.

The wind and fire broke into Jiuzhou.

…”

Yang Feng continued to howl.

But at this moment, the person in front suddenly stopped.

In Yangcunyi in front of them, hundreds of officers and soldiers had blocked the road, holding swords, guns, three-eyed guns, etc., gathering in a mess behind a green robe's officials...

It can only be gathering.

Could it be that they are still arrayed?

"Do you want to rebel?"

The official shouted angrily with his hands behind his back, as majestic as usual.

Yang Feng glanced at him speechlessly.

Immediately afterwards, he waved his hand back, accompanied by the laughter of the soldiers, six light chariots went straight forward from left and right, and then fell in front of him. The muzzles of six Franzers extended from the shield wall and pointed them at the officials and soldiers with a arrogant attitude. The gunners behind him held ignition poles and looked at them with contempt. The face of the official opposite changed instantly, and the officers and soldiers behind him looked at each other in panic. Several holding three-eyed guns quietly lowered the shabby weapons in their hands, and even began to look back and prepare to escape at all times.

Yang Feng tilted his head and sniffed his ears.

"Master, what did you say just now?"

He asked with a pure face.

"Big, bold and treacherous, troublemaker, do you know that inciting civil rebellion is a death sentence?"

The official said tremblingly.

"boom!"

The answer to him was the Six Flames.

Just as the cannon sounded, the official screamed in horror, then threw himself to the ground, hugged his head and plunged into the snow, and even threw his official hat out. The officers and soldiers behind him were also screaming in horror, abandoning the weapons in his hands without hesitation, and in a blink of an eye, the birds and beasts scattered.

"Go ahead, keep moving forward, and pick up the swords and guns they threw!"

Yang Feng shouted.

Then his carriage continued forward.

The official lay on the ground, holding his head with his hands, and screamed heart-wrenchingly like a strong woman who was about to lose her tribute.

But no one paid attention to him.

Yang Feng's carriage drove directly by his side.

The boatmen laughed and walked straight past him, then picked up all kinds of weapons abandoned by the soldiers, and continued to move forward while mocking the soldiers running away. The officials hugged their heads, buried their faces in the snow, screaming constantly, and chariots continued to drive by him, countless big feet were also trampling by him, as if he was just a piece of disgusting shit.

No one paid attention to him.

"Let's go, let's go.

You have, I have, everything.

…”

The howling song continued to walk away behind him.

Then……

Suddenly stopped.

Yang Feng looked at the other side of the canal. Countless onlookers gathered on the embankment there, all of whom were silently watching them, and even the defeated officers and soldiers just now ran over there to look at him...

"Young and young men, we are going to Beijing to ask the emperor why the people in the world live so hard, why he is obviously a farmer but he can't have enough food, why Taizu's military household has now become slaves to the generals, and why there are so many corrupt officials in the world who are left alone.

Don't you go together?

Don't you want to live clearly?

If you are willing to go together, come here. Let’s ask the emperor together to find out that there is food and drink here, so let’s go to the capital together.”

He shouted loudly with the trumpet.

"Go together!"

"Go together!"

...

shouted the people around him.

The canal is not very wide, not to mention that many people watching the fun on the opposite side were standing on the surface of the river. When they heard their shouts, someone immediately walked over to this side, and then more and more, and even among the officers and soldiers just now, some people came back. In fact, most of the area are military households, who maintain the river channel along the canal. Nowadays, military households are basically equivalent to serfs. Who wouldn't want to ask the emperor, why did the descendants of the soldiers who followed Taizu to conquer the world, but now they are not as good as ordinary farmers?

It's really not as good as it is!

A farmer's daughter would rather marry a tenant than a military household.

Looking at this scene, Yang Feng continued to move forward with satisfaction.

Behind him, the team entering Beijing also continued to move forward, but it expanded rapidly in the forward direction, just like the river water gathering along the streams, rapidly expanding into surging waves...

A long time later.

The unlucky official raised his head tremblingly.

"Unforgivable!"

With a covered in snow and soil on his face, he turned to look at the back and cursed in grief.

But then he saw a large number of cavalry suddenly appearing on the dam opposite, and they were obviously elites on the Great Wall line. Then a sedan chair also appeared among the cavalry. As the sedan chair fell, an old man in red robe walked out and stood there silently watching the crowd leaving.

He immediately got up in surprise.

"Tutang, Capital Hall, Xiaguan Shuntian Prefecture Tongzhe, Capital Hall, you are here!"
