I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Chapter 321: Not a hair grows

"Emperor Tianwu was incompetent and the treasury was robbed, but he oppressed the people instead."

"The drought is so severe now, but the government doesn't open its warehouses to provide relief, and is collecting taxes in advance!"

"Are you willing to be forced to death like this!?"

Zhao Cheng stood on the grain that was forcibly moved from the government and shouted at the top of his voice.

As more and more refugees gathered around, Zhao Cheng shouted more and more excitedly.

"I won't accept this! I won't accept this!"

The guards following Zhao Cheng waved their fists and shouted angrily.

The corners of Jiang Xu's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand, but he didn't want to open his mouth at all.

He wanted to roll his eyes.

The 15 palace guards who were poisoned by the Xiao family all shouted that they were unwilling to do so.

If they had known earlier that Zhao Cheng had come to the south to rebel, they would have escaped quietly long ago.

It is better to follow Xiao Yunzhan than to follow Zhao Cheng in rebellion. At least the Xiao family has private soldiers who can fight.

What's the big deal about Zhao Cheng? Just these hundred or so palace guards want to rebel?

The most important thing is that the families of these 15 people are still in Beijing.

Zhao Cheng, this bastard, didn't even give them a chance to breathe along the way, but his own family members escaped early. He really lacks virtue.

If they join the rebellion, all their family members in the capital will be beheaded.

Jiang Xu and Wei Heshan looked at each other and rolled their eyes.

The onlookers licked their cracked lips and looked at the bags of grain at Zhao Cheng's feet with shining eyes.

Hearing the shouts of the palace guards, they all echoed with hoarse voices.

"Not reconciled!"

“I’m not willing to…”

"..."

Zhao Cheng smiled as he listened and continued to shout,

"Emperor Tianwu doesn't want the people to live, so let's rebel against him!"

"We are fighting for food, water and land. We just want to survive!"

"Whoever doesn't let us live, we will make him die!"

Along the way, we found that the disaster in the south was also quite serious. All the rice in the fields was dried to a scorch and could not produce any grain at all.

However, the south has more water resources than the north and east, so the people will not die of thirst.

Zhao Cheng also regretted running south. He should have run east earlier.

People from the northeast are tall and strong, and are better at fighting.

Fortunately, many prefects and county magistrates in the south knew him. When they saw him, they were afraid from the bottom of their hearts and would automatically lay down their arms and surrender.

Most of the officials in the south are children of the aristocratic families in the capital. How could the oil-rich south allow children from poor families to be in power?

Children from poor families naturally have to go to cold and desolate places to suffer and achieve political achievements in order to get promoted.

"He rebelled against the tyrant, let him die!!"

Zhao Cheng's little dog legs screamed loudly.

The refugees don’t care who rebels or who becomes the emperor. Whoever gives them food has the final say.

"Rebellion against the tyrant, let him die..."

"Rebellion against the tyrant, let him die..."

"..."

The refugees followed suit, shouting, with their eyes all fixed on the food.

If Zhao Cheng and his men had not been holding sharp swords, these refugees would have rushed over to grab the food...

Soon, Zhao Cheng recruited a group of refugees by using the food he had looted from the government.

Before he knew it, he had nearly 10,000 soldiers under his command. You can imagine how many refugees there were.

Jiang Xu and others were stunned.

Can everyone rebel?

Their lives were still in Xiao Yunzhan's hands, so they could only ask one of their inconspicuous younger brothers to secretly go to Brahma City to deliver the message to Xiao Yunzhan.

As for sending the news to the capital, they didn't need to do anything at all. The government offices in the south that were robbed by Zhao Cheng had already reported Zhao Cheng's rebellion.

This is also the reason why Jiang Xu and others looked down on Zhao Cheng. They rebelled and robbed the government, but they didn't kill those officials.

He said that the families of those officials were powerful, and if he could get the support of those officials' families, he would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

It's just a fart!

Why do the noble families support you, a leader of the imperial guards, when they don't support their own descendants?

It is estimated that by this time, the aristocratic families in the capital and Emperor Wu of Liang had already received the news of Zhao Cheng's rebellion...

......

"Bold!!"

"Zhao Cheng, this bastard, actually dared to rebel!"

"How do you do things, ah!"

"Such a big thing has only been presented now!"

Emperor Wu of Liang looked at the memorial sent urgently from the south and was so angry that he threw it directly at Wei Jianxiong, the Vice Minister of War.

Seeing the hair growing on the top of Wei Jianxiong's shaved head, he became even angrier.

How come everyone can grow hair but he can't? !

I don't know how many ointments were applied on his head.

As a result, more than a month passed, and there was still no hair on the top of his head.
