Lin Zhenhai said angrily, "Fairy, the reason we rebelled is because our families were forced to make a living."

"There are more than 100 households in our village. Last year was a disaster year and the grain production of the whole village was reduced by half. However, Yang Gou asked for three times the grain."

"They not only took our newly harvested grain, but also plundered our stored grain. When it was still not enough for the amount they demanded, they captured young women in the village to pay off the tax."

"When they were about to take my sister away, I couldn't help it, so I took out my hatchet and chopped a few of the dogs. When the villagers saw me, they followed me and rose up in rebellion, killing all the dogs that entered the village."

"In just a few months, we had 50,000 militiamen and occupied four cities."

Zhou Xinfeng explained, "Fairy, originally we just wanted to hold on to a mountain and protect our loved ones."

"However, the people nearby heard the news about us and came to us one after another, seeking our protection. Our territory has been expanding again and again, and the number of people has been increasing. It has become such a large scale in a short period of time, which shows that people's minds have changed."

Another big man named Lin Shusheng clenched his fists and said, "Now that our scale has grown, we have the confidence to settle accounts with Yang Gou!"

"I admire Brother Lin's courage very much. He dared to pull out the hatchet and attack Yang Liu's people. I watched my sister being taken away to pay taxes, and her whereabouts are still unknown!"

Tian Ruomo understood these people's feelings. From their attitude and actions towards the people, she knew that the Shanhai Jiedushi's claim in the letter that the Qingshan bandits were robbing and looting, committing all kinds of evil, and leaving no grass wherever they passed was simply a slander.

They were all ordinary people who rose up in resistance out of the simple desire to protect their families.

Tian Ruomo roughly understood the cause of this group of Qingshan soldiers, so she said, "Okay, take off the strips of cloth!"

Lin Zhenhai and others were stunned. Could the cloth strip be torn off so quickly?

They only exchanged a few words, which could be said to be the blink of an eye.

However, they can also clearly feel that the environment they were in just now should be different from the one they are in now.

It was like being in the room just now, but now it felt like being outdoors, with a cool breeze blowing in my face, carrying the night dew.

They quickly took off the cloth strips and suddenly found that they were on the city wall, and not on the wall of Genting City.

"Who are you?"

Suddenly, a group of plainclothes soldiers patrolling on the city wall not far away discovered them, shouted, rushed over and surrounded them.

Lin Zhenhai quickly spoke up, "Don't be nervous, brothers, I am Lin Zhenhai!"

Lin Zhenhai?

The leader came forward to take a look and was immediately shocked, "General Lin, aren't you in Yunding City?"

"Why are you in Spring Breeze City?"

Is this really Spring Breeze City?

Lin Zhenhai and others looked at Tian Rumo in shock again.

It’s more than a hundred miles, and it only takes a few words to get there.

If Tian Rumo is not a fairy, then what else could she be?

Lin Zhenhai and the others were about to bow down again, but Tian Ruomo stopped them, "Don't waste time, where are you going? Let's save people."

One night, Tian Ruomo traveled around the four cities occupied by the Qingshan Army and taught more than 20 people, including Doctor Yun, the acupoint treatment techniques.

The plague problem in the four cities has been solved, and dawn is approaching.

When Tian Ruomo brought Lin Zhenhai back to Yunding City, Lin Zhenhai and others worshipped Tian Ruomo as a god.

Tian Ruomo told Lin Zhenhai, "Don't attack other cities yet. Defend the four cities you occupy. I'm going to the capital now to find a way to get the court to deal with Yang Liu and give you justice."

Lin Zhenhai and others looked at each other and nodded.

"Fairy, we don't trust the court, but since you said so, we will wait for your good news."

"If the imperial court can punish Yang Liu and other scoundrels and pardon our crime of treason, we are willing to surrender to the imperial court under the arrangement of the fairy!"

"Because we believe in you!"

The other leaders agreed and were willing to believe that Tian Rumo could protect them and their families.

In fact, they know very well that their abilities are limited.

They were all farmers who could barely read or write and had no great ambitions. They rebelled purely to protect their families.

Their greatest wish is to make Yang Liu pay a heavy price and seek justice.

They have almost no knowledge of managing a country. Just the four cities and 50,000 Qingshan troops are already a headache for them in terms of military rations, military discipline, and other management aspects.

Although the soldiers were very loyal, they still made the army look somewhat chaotic and were unable to keep them well fed and clothed.

Everything the army has comes from the people. The people nowadays are very poor, and they are just ordinary people. They don't want to levy taxes on the people, and they can't rely on attacking other cities and robbing the people in other cities to get money and food. They can't even rely on accepting money and food from the original official army to ensure that the soldiers have a full meal every time.

Even if they wanted to open up the land and grow crops, they had no chance, after all, it was only three months.

If the imperial court's regular army came, they might not be able to resist.

They bowed to Tian Ruomo once again, "Thank you, Fairy!"

The fairy in front of them really cares about them wholeheartedly!

Cured their plague and saved them all.

Now, they have to go to the capital for their future!

How could they not be grateful?

Tian Rumo was about to leave, but when she heard their voices and knew that they were short of money and food, she had an idea and a silver light appeared in the corner of the room.

Tian Ruomo pointed to a pile of silver in the corner of the room and said, "Here are 300,000 taels of silver. There are some marks on it. Send someone you can trust to grind it off and use it to buy food for the Qingshan Army or to help the people."

"I have only one request. Do not allow any of the people under your rule to starve to death!"

After saying that, Tian Ruomo entered the space, and Xiaomei whooshed towards the capital.

Lin Zhenhai, Zhou Xinfeng and others looked at such a huge pile of silver bars that filled half of the room and were stunned for a long time.

Zhou Xinfeng stepped forward, picked up a large piece of silver, turned it over and saw the words "Prince Qi's Palace" on it!

He said in surprise, "General Lin, this silver belongs to Prince Qi's Mansion?"

Lin Zhenhai came over and took a look, and it was true!

"Maybe the fairy brought it from the Prince Qi's Palace in the capital. No matter who it belongs to, since the fairy gave it to us, it's ours."

This money is really important to them.

At least in the short term, their soldiers and even civilians will not have to endure hunger!

His eyes were red, and his hands were clenched into fists. "From now on, we belong to the fairy. As long as the fairy gives an order, we will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

The others immediately agreed and followed Lin Zhenhai in saying that they would obey Tian Ruomo's orders and be loyal to her from now on.

Tian Rumo not only saved their lives, but also supported them. They had no reason not to listen to Tian Rumo.
