I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven.

Seeing that all the people from Xiaoli Village were plunged into a heavy, despair, Wang Chao couldn't help but step forward and ask a familiar person among them.

"Li Shu, what's the situation in your village now?"

"What? What else can we do? We don't have any food left. We can only wait to die."

Li Shu's tone was filled with resentment and helplessness, as well as a hint of deep despair and confusion. He had no idea where the road ahead lay.

"Oh~!"

After listening to Li Shu's story, everyone couldn't help but sigh in unison.

Sadness, despair, confusion, all kinds of emotions were shown on everyone's faces, and even the air pressure around them seemed to drop suddenly.

Then the size of the teams led by Wang Dahu and Wang Shi was expanded.

The next step was easy. Wang Chao asked them to go back to the village to mobilize the rest of the people, prepare their weapons, and then gather at the village entrance.

Secondly, the current situation has pushed them into a desperate situation.

Xiaoli Village is adjacent to Xiaowangzhuang, but is much larger, with an area of five Jia and a population of more than fifty households.

Without that food, we would just die.

Some of the villagers in Xiaolizhuang couldn't help but take a step back and hesitated slightly.

But if they face real regular troops, they are just a group of lambs to be slaughtered.

Afterwards, Li Shu frowned instantly, with a fierce look in his eyes. He turned around and looked at the people in Xiaoli Village and said:

"Since you're going to die anyway, you might as well give it a try. Maybe you can still survive.

Although everyone was already starving, coupled with the hot weather, they had already become weak and exhausted.

In fact, more people were there mainly to prevent anyone from Mr. Wu's family from escaping.

Even Wang Dahu and others fell silent at this time.

If we really have to wait until night or even dawn, everyone will be so hungry that they may not have any fighting power at all.

In fact, to be honest, now is not the best time to attack Wujiazhuang. It is best to wait until night or even dawn, which is the best time to attack.

In fact, if everyone rushed forward, those guards of Mr. Wu might not dare to resist much.

They are now, intentionally or unintentionally, temporarily suppressing it in their hearts.

Mr. Wu was forcing them to either sell themselves and become slaves of his family, or starve to death.

Even those who had been about to retreat stopped.

The original team of ten people was changed to a team of twenty people, and then Li Shucheng formed a team with the remaining twenty people.

If someone escapes and reports to the authorities, they will surely be surrounded and attacked by soldiers, and their lives will become difficult.

The whole family rented land from Mr. Wu, and most of the grain had been taken away. Once a disaster occurred, they would have no ability to resist it at all.

Looking at Wujiazhuang in front, except for the large courtyard in the middle, the rest is no different from Xiaolizhuang and Xiaowangzhuang.

"You allow Mr. Wu to steal our food, but you don't allow us to take it back?"

In just half an hour, everyone arrived outside Wujiazhuang.

Afterwards, Wang Chao led everyone towards Wujiazhuang.

Looking at the sky, Wang Chao pondered for a moment.

Wang Chao did this simply because his team would be the main combat and frontal attack team, so naturally he had to choose the strongest group of people.

The moment Wang Chao finished speaking, Li Shu and others caused a commotion.

"If you don't let us live, then no one will have a good life."

Attacking Mr. Wu's house to steal food would be tantamount to killing officials and rebelling.

But this time, Mr. Wu miscalculated.

Facing the servants and guards of the landlords and rich people, we might still be able to launch a counterattack.

"you."

After hearing what Wang Sanshun said, everyone present immediately felt angry.

Although if you choose this path, you will definitely face officers and soldiers.

In everyone's mind, Wu Yuanwai's identity as the head of the village had already been removed from the list of officials.

In an instant, everyone present responded.

"Yes, yes, yes, I robbed the motherfucker."

Firstly, when you speak to ordinary people at the bottom of society and use roundabout ways of speaking, they may not understand you.

But, certainly not now.

It can even be said that many places are not as good as them.

Whether it is self-deception or something else.

Especially the sentence that Mr. Wu was not an official, which gave them great courage.

"This"

To them, they are all officials.

"Hehe, so what if we kill officials and rebel? In this world, God won't let us live, and the court won't let us live either. Are we going to wait here to die? We might as well rebel."

As for the corruption among the officers and soldiers, they are much better than the victims.

However, unlike Wang Chao, they were not baptized by the power of heaven and earth. Not only were their strength twice as strong as at their peak, but even their hunger and fatigue had been washed away.

Someone couldn't help but speak a little hastily.

However, it is only a few miles from Xiaoli Village to Wujiazhuang.

So in comparison, these tenants may be worse off than Wang Chao and his men.

Wang Chao looked up at the sun. It was probably the end of the Shen period, which was around four or five o'clock.

However, Wang Chao was worried about Wang Shi, Li Shu and others. After all, they were just ordinary farmers. Although they had been forced into a desperate situation, they were still a little timid when facing Wu Yuanwai and others who represented the government.

Now, after hearing Wang Chao's words, they instantly understood that they were preparing to rob food.

And Wang Chao now directly points it out and shows them a way out.

Looking at the large mansion in the center of the village, Wang Chao and others had fierce eyes and were breathing heavily.

Does it mean that when the time comes, we will really have to rely on Wang Chao alone to fight and charge?

Although he was confident, he was not confident enough to attack a team of 10 to 20 guards alone.

In this way, including the Dynasty team of more than 30 people, there are four teams in total, with a total of nearly a hundred people.

Anyway, if we can delay it for a day, it’s a day. Wang Chao and the others can make more preparations, right?

Therefore, except for the team led by Wang Chao himself, the other teams were more focused on preventing anyone from escaping from Wu Yuanwai's family.

Wang Chao glanced at everyone without concealing anything and spoke directly.

When everyone heard this, it seemed to make some sense. If they went into the mountains, the officials might not be able to control them.

"We can't be considered a rebel now, right? We haven't attacked the county town.

"The village head is not considered an official. The county magistrate in the county town is the official."

Seeing that many villagers in Xiaoli Village were already beginning to be tempted, Wang Sanshun took two steps forward and said to the crowd:

Including Mr. Wu, who is also the head of the village here and also an official, they represent the imperial court.

"Of course!"

He doesn't have that intention now.

The reason why the dynasty selected the strongest people was not to form cliques or build up its own powerful force.

But even so, they were once again plundered by Mr. Wu.

Regardless of whether people believe or not that the village head is not an official.

If they were not forced to do so, why would they give up their good lives to do this business that could get them killed?

But more people had their eyes flickering, staring at Wang Chao, Wang Dahu and others, and their breathing gradually became heavier.

Normally, there are six people in one household. There may be some differences at this time, but excluding the elderly, the weak and the disabled, there are more than sixty people gathered in Xiaoli Village.

Moreover, after robbing Mr. Wu, we can hide in the mountains, and those officials may not have the time to pay attention to us. "

Once they see blood, the crowd will be filled with enthusiasm and he will personally lead the charge, which will make them put aside their fear and timidity.

"Y-really?"

They all need this statement to strengthen their beliefs.

"We are going to Mr. Wu's house to take back our food."

It’s okay if you don’t pay attention to it at the beginning. Even if you are a little surprised, you won’t take it to heart.

Now everyone is just a group of hungry villagers without much fighting power.

Because most of the villagers in Wujiazhuang were tenants of Mr. Wu's family and they did not own any land at all.

Including Wang Chao and others, Wu Yuanwai mainly forced them to sell their land and themselves. It can be said that after a natural disaster, even if some people could survive, they would end up penniless, and even they themselves would become slaves and maids of Wu Yuanwai's family.

By the time everyone had finished lining up, the sun had already set and the originally hot temperature had dropped slightly.

When the time comes, they will rush forward together, but how strong can the fighting power of the guards of a mere village head's house be?

For ordinary people like them, they don’t know the difference between officials, clerks and menial servants.

Wang Chao did possess a certain amount of extraordinary power, and with the advantage in numbers, he was confident that he could deal with those dozen guards.

Are there fewer bandits these days? The government has not sent troops to suppress them.

It was at this time that they noticed that Wang Chao and others were holding axes, sickles, hammers, and even kitchen knives.

They are only in their twenties or thirties, in the prime of their lives. Who would want to starve to death?

What the dynasty needs to do is to break the shackles and cowardice in their hearts.

Wang Dahu took a hatchet in his hand, took a big step forward, glared with bloodshot eyes, sneered, and said with gritted teeth.

Like Wang Chao and others, although most of their land was sold to Mr. Wu, they still had some land of their own.

"You...you are killing officials and rebelling."

Looking at everyone, Wang Chao immediately selected the strongest group of people and added them to his own team.

What's more, Mr. Wu is not actually an official. We are just trying to take back our own food.

"Isn't Mr. Wu our village chief? Why isn't he considered an official?"

However, someone still asked hesitantly.

Obviously, they were moved.

The truth is, in today's world, natural disasters and man-made calamities have forced them to make such a choice.

Do you want to be starved to death?"

Thinking of this, Wang Chao's eyes became fierce.

In that case, let’s just start fighting now.
