    "I know all this!" The gentle smile on Song Shen's face just now has disappeared. At this time, he has become very cold: "But you have also seen that the soldiers all want to go back to plant their own fields. This is what we started with  We can't break our promise!" "Promise?" A dumbfounded expression appeared on Tu Xingzhe's face: "Song Shen, you are not so naive, are you?  You have to fight those cunning nobles and monks. The use of any weapon is allowed in this battle. If those monks can kill you with blasphemous methods, they will never hesitate at all, but you are now  But you told me that you have to keep your promise? Are you crazy?" "That's different!" Song Shen looked into Tu Xingzhe's eyes calmly: "I will not hesitate to use it to deal with the enemy as long as it is beneficial to our cause.  Any means. But they are different. They are our companions in fighting together. Just as I will never deceive you, I will never deceive them!" Hearing Song Shen's words, Tu Xingzhe's face showed emotion.  look, but soon disappeared.  Then he continued to persuade: "Song Shen, this cannot be regarded as deception. You know, if we are defeated, will those farmers be able to keep their land? The nobles will take the land back from them.  This is all for their own good!¡± ¡°You are right, but we cannot use such deceptive methods. We can tell the brothers everything clearly and let them make their own choices instead of using deceptive methods.  "Song Shen, you have a ruby ??heart! But this will harm you!" Earth Walker shook his head in despair: "Even if those people understand this truth,  Who is willing to serve as a soldier and face the guns of the nobles for the sake of other people's land and happiness? Even if some people are willing to sacrifice themselves, how many people are left? The army of the nobles will easily wipe out all of us!  "Turkey, don't be so pessimistic, okay? Our companions have proven their courage and sacrifice with their actions!" Song Shen comforted with a smile.  "That's because they had no other choice at that time!" Earth Walker sighed, looked at Song Can sadly, and said, "The gods and Buddhas in the sky must destroy our cause, otherwise why didn't they put something in your chest?"  "Where is your heart of stone?" Half an hour later, the rally horn was blown in the rebel camp, and more than 800 men in the camp quickly gathered. When they formed their formation according to their own organization,  , they saw Song Shen standing on a small mound in front of them. Song Shen had a gentle smile on his face. In sharp contrast, the face of the earthwalker behind him was dark and ugly.  "Comrades! When I first saw you, the vast majority of you were tired and hopeless, with nothing and despised by the world. Many of us have fallen in these days, but  More people joined in, and their blood was not shed in vain. Now, you are a respected army, defeating the powerful British several times, and the noble king is also expressing his gratitude to you!  Yes." When Song Shen said this, he paused and raised his voice: "You have allowed thousands of poor people to get their own land for the first time. These poor and kind people no longer have to go hungry.  Others work!" A burst of cheers broke out from the crowd, interrupting Song Shen's speech. The insurrectionists were moved by Song Shen's speech. People recalled the hardships, battles and failures they had experienced on the road and in the battle.  Many of the fallen companions had tears in their eyes, and even the cheers became choked with sobs.  Song Shen raised his arms, and the rebels gradually quieted down. He continued to preach: "Now, many of us want to put down our weapons, return to our hometowns, and return to our families. No, I am not here.  I blame them. After all, the purpose of our uprising at the beginning was to be able to live such a life again, but I want to ask these people a question - has our purpose really been achieved? Indeed, in Central Myanmar, there have been  Many farmers have obtained their land, but in Lower Burma, in Upper Burma, in the vast land from the sea to the plateau, there are still more farmers who have nothing. They are waiting for you to do something. Can you let them do something?  Are you disappointed? "Some people may say that we have done enough, much more than we should do. Now it is our turn to go back to our own homes and plan for ourselves. Yes, you do.  We have done enough, but if you put down your weapons now and return to your homes, can you really live a peaceful life? More than two months ago, our two companions Kubu and Buji came here.  Farm, ask Master Basong here to distribute some grain to the farmers here to prevent them from starving to death.?What did the respectable Master Basong do?  Song Shen paused for a moment, pointed to two big trees not far away and said: "Under these two big trees, Kubu and Buji were brutally whipped by Master Basong and then hanged to death. The masters are  This is the answer to the farmers who dare to ask them.  Today I am bringing up old things not for anything else, but to tell you what the gentlemen will do to protect their property. If you put down your weapons and return to your own homes, the gentlemen will start again.  Come here, hang you one by one on the tree like Kubu and Buji, and take the land back from the hands of the farmers!  You know, the gentlemen will never be merciful in this kind of thing!  " There was silence in the open space. The relaxed smiles on the faces of the rebels disappeared at first, leaving only solemnity. Song Shen's eloquence powerfully conquered them. Those who planned to lay down their weapons and return home, especially those deserters, all  He lowered his head in shame. ¡°If someone asks me, when can we put down our weapons and return to our hometown to enjoy a peaceful life?  Then here is my answer: As long as there is a farmer in Myanmar who cannot own the land he cultivates, and a nobleman still rides on the heads of the farmers, then we cannot put down our weapons, because there are always such a group of people in the world.  People, they live on the blood and sweat of others. As long as they exist, hardworking people will not be able to live a good life. Only on that day can we put down our weapons!  " As soon as Song Shen's speech stopped, the rebels responded to their leader with cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami. There is no doubt that the idea of ??laying down their weapons and returning to their hometown has been temporarily given up in these people's hearts, but standing on  The expression on the soil traveler behind Song Shen was a bit strange, with surprise, admiration, and of course a little disappointment. This man who had always been loyal to Song Shen felt more lost than ever before. "'As long as there is still one in Myanmar.  A farmer cannot own the land he cultivates, and a nobleman still rides on top of the farmers' heads. Do we take up arms, bleed and sweat, just to return to the dilapidated hut and dig the mud ourselves?  Earth Walker shook his head gently: "Songshen, Songshen, your behavior disappoints me so much, and also disappoints the soldiers who follow you. It seems that you are not the man chosen by God!"  " Song Shen looked at the rebels cheering loudly with satisfaction, turned around and asked Earth Walker: " Earth Walker, you see, you and I are not the only ones with a heart like ruby!  " "Chief, your wisdom always makes you one step ahead of us!  "The earth traveler bowed his head humbly, and at the same time covered his flashing eyes. "Hanjing, Rongbaozhai, it is already January, and it will be the New Year's Eve in a few days. The locust trees beside the road have been  The north wind blew away all the leaves, and the dark branches pointed to the sky. It seemed that there was a bit of chill in my heart. Ever since the news came out from the palace more than ten days ago: In order to educate the world, extravagant items such as jewelry and fireworks have been banned.  The increase in taxes on shops has caused a lot of depression in Hanking's market. This well-established Rongbaozhai shop has known about the news for a long time and simply closed most of its stores, leaving only a two-person storefront for the shop.  The shop's clerks were out and about, and the shop was closed early for the New Year to take stock.
