Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A year ago, although his family was poor, his ancestors had good deeds and left him a few acres of land.  He married a neighbor who was ordinary-looking but virtuous and gentle.  Although life is poor, everything is very comfortable.

    Hu Cai believed at that time that the so-called happiness was like this.  He is willing to live an ordinary life like this, with men farming and women weaving.

    Just when Hu Cai was living an ordinary life and thinking about having a few babies.  Suddenly, there was a new magistrate in the county. I heard that this magistrate was a member of one of the ten permanent servants in the court, a member of someone's clan, and had great power.

    As soon as the new county magistrate arrived, Hu Cai's life was enveloped in nightmares.

    The land tax, which was already high, was increased six times in three months.  Many people in Hu Cai's village could not afford the terrible land tax, so they went to the county to plead with the new magistrate.  Unexpectedly, the new county magistrate thought that these people were going to rebel, and sent the county army to suppress them. Hu Cai saw with his own eyes that these imperial troops armed with swords and spears chased the unarmed peasants and hacked them to death one by one.  , stabbed to death.

    And, while they were killing people, they were laughing at the same time.  If Hu Cai had never married, he would have rushed out and beaten these so-called court soldiers to death one by one!

    But he can¡¯t. Once he marries a wife, he must be responsible for his wife.  If he goes against these soldiers representing the imperial court and is imprisoned in the government prison, what will happen to his wife?

    So, Hu Cai gritted his teeth and endured it, hiding at home, comforting his wife while swallowing the raging anger in his stomach.

    Hu Cai only has a few acres of land, but he can still survive. As long as he saves a little and survives for a few years, when the county magistrate is transferred to Gaosheng and the land tax comes, he can have a few children and continue the Hu family's lineage.

    But people's greed seems to be endless. Since the new county magistrate added land tax five times in a row two months later.  Hu Cai sold all his family's land and could not afford to pay heavy taxes.

    If he couldn't pay, the government sent troops to collect him.

    Hu Cai clearly remembers that day. It was almost winter and there was no rice for cooking at home.  He was still joking with his wife that if they couldn't survive this cold winter, then he would take her up the mountain to weed the grass and let her be the wife of the village.

    At that time, his wife was still smiling happily and said that as long as she was with him, she was willing to be a thief.

    Just as his wife finished speaking, dozens of court soldiers rushed into his home, captured his wife, and coldly said that if he did not pay the land tax, he would sell his wife to a brothel.  Pay off debts.

    How could the hot-blooded Hu Cai endure his wife being sold into a brothel and subjected to humiliation?  The resentment he had accumulated for a long time finally burst out. He took out the big knife he kept under the bed at home and started fighting with the dozens of imperial soldiers.  Hu Caitian was born with a supernormal body. He went crazy and killed dozens of imperial soldiers with one person.

    But in the middle of the fight, a court soldier accidentally killed Hu Cai's wife.  At that time, Hu Cai suddenly felt that his world was dark, and the death of his wife took away all the light.

    The heartbroken Hu Cai vowed to fight to the death against the imperial court. He went to Bailong Mountain with overwhelming resentment and later became the leader of the Bailong Rebel Army.

    "No~! Xiaoyu!! Xiaoyu!!!"

    Hu Cai jumped up suddenly, and the scene where his wife was hacked to death by the soldiers and horses of the imperial court appeared again in his dream.  Before Hu Cai, a big man with a full face, could react, he only raised his hand and felt two strange winds blowing beside him.

    Hu Cai reacted quickly and immediately avoided the situation. He looked up and saw two familiar figures, both holding hemp ropes in their hands. Many things suddenly became clear to him.

    "White wolf, black wolf! You two actually want to betray me!!!"

    "Hu Cai, you are too cruel! We brothers originally respected your ambition and force, but we didn't expect that you are a reckless man who doesn't care about his brother's life and death, and just pushes the brother below him into the death pit!"

    "That's right. Hu Cai, today we two brothers are going to tie you up and sacrifice you to Champion Wen. We will open a way for the brothers below to survive!"

    "You!! Ahhh! You actually believe the hypocrisy of Champion Nawen, and you don't believe me, the big boss. You two deserve to die!"

    Hu Cai rolled around a few times, pulled out the big knife he had hidden a long time ago from under the bed, and killed the white wolf and the black wolf like a violent tiger whose tail had been stepped on.

    Hu Cai slashed Huashan with one move, with a force of hundreds of kilograms, and chopped off the two brothers White Wolf and Black Wolf.  White Wolf and Black Wolf finally stopped their attacks, and then Hu Cai's wild attack came again.

    "Brothers, come out quickly! Let's kill this reckless man together!"

    The white wolf shouted sharply.Roaring, the black wolf next to him whistled at the same time. After a while, shouts of killing were heard from all directions in Tucheng.

    Groups of thieves, led by various petty bosses, rushed out and soon surrounded Hu Cai.  Hu Cai looked at his former subordinate, who was now pointing a cold knife and gun at him. He felt like his heart was overturned. For a moment, he didn't know what the taste was, but he felt resentment, disbelief, and at the same time, he felt guilty.

    "Why! Why! You would rather believe Wen Bufan's lies than believe me, the big boss. Have you all suffered from the oppression of the imperial court!? Can the Han Dynasty still believe it today!!"

    Hu Caijie roared hysterically, with raised veins all over his face.

    "He is the one who talks nonsense. Don't listen to him! Kill him and we can survive!"

    When White Wolf saw Hu Cai drinking, many people stopped drinking. He immediately did not dare to let Hu Cai continue to incite people. He looked at each other and the two of them drew out the sharp swords from their waists and rushed towards Hu Cai together.  Seeing this, the other little bosses waved their hands and issued orders for their men to attack.

    In an instant, the area around Hu Cai was densely packed with people.  No matter how brave Hu Cai was, his abilities were still limited, and he could not withstand this impenetrable surging attack at a low level. He was hit by several knives. He retreated while fighting. When he retreated to a corner, seeing that there was no way to retreat, he had to stare violently.  He opened his eyes and used all his strength to make the final resistance.

    "Second boss, third boss! You guys!"

    Many thieves who were awakened by the sound of fighting came out one after another. When they saw the white wolf and black wolf leading many people to kill Hu Cai, they were shocked and fell asleep.

    "Brothers, White Wolf, Black Wolf and the court lackey Wen Bufan have a private agreement to rebel against everyone. Why don't you hurry up and take up arms to kill this group of rebels!"

    Hu Cai's shout immediately made the awakened thieves scream in surprise, but White Wolf and Black Wolf were too lazy to talk nonsense. The two launched an even fiercer offensive. As long as Hu Cai was killed, they had their own way at that time.  Address the others.

    Although Hu Cai was tyrannical, some of these thieves, like him, were deeply persecuted by the court and forced to sell their wives and children. They had a blood feud with the court.

    Like Hu Cai, these people hated the imperial court deeply, so they obeyed Hu Cai's orders.  When these people saw Hu Cai being surrounded and killed by White Wolf and Black Wolf, and heard that they were conspiring with the imperial army, they became furious. They rushed into the room, picked up weapons, and rushed into the crowd.

    When Hu saw someone coming to save him, his desire for survival aroused his potential. He swung the knife with all his strength and swept the white wolf away. Then he shouted loudly and rushed into the crowd like a red-eyed bullfight.  go.  The thieves who came to rescue also rushed in the direction of Hu Cai. Hu Cai knew that he was on the line between life and death. As long as he could rush into the rescuers, he still had a chance to survive, otherwise he would definitely die.

    "Who dares to stop me!"

    Hu Cai was stabbed several times in the back, but he raised his arms and shouted, as if he didn't feel the pain at all. Then he suddenly unleashed his strength and hacked two thieves to death, scaring the surrounding thieves so much that they couldn't help but retreat.

    Hu Cai immediately seized the opportunity and ran to the crowd of people coming to rescue him.  At this time, White Wolf and Black Wolf realized what they were doing and yelled at the thieves around Hu Cai to block them.

    But how could Hu Cai wait for them? He took a few steps and jumped, falling among the people who came to rescue him. The thieves chasing him were immediately attacked by the thieves who came to rescue Hu Cai and killed them all.

    At this time, there were still many thieves present who were hesitant and didn't know which faction they wanted to join.

    "Brothers, have you forgotten the terrible land tax that is only increasing and the miserable situation of us being forced to sell our wives and children? Why do we want to become rebels? Because the imperial court is ignorant and indulging in treacherous ministers!

    I, Hu Cai, swear to the death to be at odds with the imperial court!  Whoever takes refuge in the imperial court today is my enemy, Hu Cai!  "

    Hu Cai had more than a dozen bloody holes all over his body, all spurting blood. His hoarse voice from shouting hysterically reminded many thieves present of the scene of a tragedy they would never recall again.  These people slowly came to Hu Cai's side, and their numbers were increasing.  It has the potential to be evenly matched with the White Wolf and Black Wolf factions.

    White Wolf opened his mouth and was about to shout, but how could Hu Cai let him open his mouth? A killing cry sounded, and he led the men and horses to rush towards White Wolf and Black Wolf's men.

    The two factions in the past became enemies tonight. The two factions fought fiercely, with blood splattering everywhere. The originally peaceful night suddenly became noisy, and the sound of fighting resounded throughout the Bailong Mountains.

    And just as the number of people from the two factions continued to decrease, the number of corpses on the ground continued to increase.  Suddenly, there was a deafening sound of rushing outside Tucheng.

    &nbsp"It's Champion Wen, Champion Wen is here! They must have noticed the fighting here, hurry up, open the door! Let Champion Wen's court troops enter the city!"

    Bai Lang's face suddenly filled with ecstasy, and he said to a little boss next to him.  The little leader nodded, led a group of people and rushed towards the city gate.

    When Hu Cai heard it, his expression changed on the spot, and his eyes became extremely gloomy.  He knew that as soon as Wenhan's troops arrived, he would definitely die.

    "Big boss, I will leave the green hills without worrying about having no firewood. A man can bend and stretch. We will retreat for the time being. I heard that there is a Baibo Valley near the Xihe River, and there are tens of thousands of martyrs and leaders in it. He was the original commander of the Yellow Turban Sect.  One is Guo Da, Guo Tianshi. This man is known for his strategy and strategic vision, and he is the most powerful rebel in Hedong. If we lead the army to help Guo Tianshi achieve his great cause, we can also avenge us. "

    And a quick-witted little boss next to Hu Cai quickly whispered in Hu Cai's ear.  Hu Cai knew that time was tight at this time and he could not allow him to think too much. What the little leader said was very reasonable and he made a decisive decision and wanted to retreat.

    "White Wolf, Black Wolf, you two traitors, remember this for me. Sooner or later, I will settle today's account with you two. Brothers, retreat!"

    Hu Cai roared loudly and led the men and horses towards the back door of Tucheng. Although the white wolf and the black wolf were bandits, they also understood the principle of not pursuing the poor, and they did have some affinity with Hu Cai in their hearts.  A little bit of emotion, if it weren't for Hu Cai's stubbornness and unwillingness to listen to others' advice, he would become more and more irritable.

    It is absolutely impossible for White Wolf and Black Wolf to betray Hu Cai easily.  The two men shouted to stop the chasing troops and allowed Hu Cai to lead the army to escape.  After a stick of incense, Wen Han and Gao Shun led the troops into Tucheng.  But when they saw that there was no more killing around them, they immediately understood that the war was over.

    The two brothers, White Wolf and Black Wolf, came to Wen Han and Gao Shun with a group of subordinates, and they all knelt down on one knee and put down their weapons.

    "The sinner White Wolf (Black Wolf), pays homage to Champion Wen. We know Champion Wen's righteousness and are willing to seek benefits for the people of Hedong. We don't want to be deceived again, so tonight I and a group of people originally wanted to arrest Hu Cai,  Dedicated to Champion Wen.
