"The scouts saw very clearly that the merchant group at the foot of the mountain had horses, and they were all good horses!”
The person who spoke was the Second Head Pei Yuan Shao,"If we rob them, not only will our brothers be able to have a good meal, but our days will also be better. You and I brothers will also be able to have a good horse.”
Pei Yuan Shao's head was wrapped in a yellow turban and he wore a battle robe. His figure was tall and sturdy, and he looked much more spirited than the others.
Zhou Cang's physique was even stronger than his.
However, there was a hint of hesitation on his resolute face."After the death of the great teacher, our lives are getting worse by the day. If we continue to rob merchants, will we really become bandits?”
"We're Yellow Turban bandits. Do you still look down on mountain bandits?!”
Pei Yuan Shao's face sank when he heard this and he said in a muffled voice,"If we don't rob the merchants, what will our brothers eat and drink? Are we going to starve to death?"
"That's not what I meant…"
Zhou Cang shook his head and swept his gaze across the crowd."What I mean is that as leaders, you and I should lead our brothers to find a future. We can't be bandits forever and live in darkness!”
His voice was loud and clear, and he had an aura and might.
In the village, many people followed his lead.
"Heh, you're thinking of joining the government army again?”
Pei Yuan Shao sneered, clearly having a different opinion from Zhou Cang,"Don't forget that we are the remnants of the Yellow Turban army, traitors of the imperial court. Once a thief, always a thief. If we join the government army, it's hard to say if we can survive.”
"It's already good enough that those ruthless government troops didn't take our heads and take credit for it!”
Fang Mu saw the lingering fear on many people's faces when he said that.
It was mixed with sorrow and hatred.
It was extremely complicated.
Pei Yuan Shao became more and more resentful as he spoke." Let's take a step back. Even if we are lucky enough to survive after joining the government army, in this world, you and I brothers should return to our hometown to farm…and then starve to death?”
"Brothers, do you think that there are not many families who have starved to death?!”
The moment these words were said, even Zhou Cang's expression could not help but change.
"Of course we can't surrender to the government army. I, Zhou Cang, will not lead my brothers to their deaths!”
"But-"
He took a deep breath and raised his voice."Although the great teacher has failed, the Yellow Heaven that we Yellow Turban brothers have been searching for can no longer exist in the world. The Great Han Dynasty's world may not last long!”
"Due to the calamity of the Path of Peace, the world is in turmoil. Liu Yan, the governor of Youzhou, has submitted a petition to change the governor to the governor. He allows the governors and prefects to recruit their own troops to suppress the bandits!”
"The Imperial Court has agreed!"
"Precisely because of this, we have to be even more careful…"
"It is precisely because of this that we, the remnants of the Yellow Turban, have a future to look for!”
Zhou Cang's words were sonorous as he interrupted him,""You and I brothers rebelled because we couldn't survive. Don't you understand that in this f * cking world, bandits can never be eliminated!”
"In this way, the various provinces and counties will have military power all year round. The dignity of the Great Han Dynasty will definitely be lost day by day. Many ambitious people in the world will definitely take advantage of the chaos to rise!!”
" When the time comes, the world will be divided by the warlords. Even if you and I have rebelled and are traitors of the imperial court, we can still choose a wise ruler to serve…"
His eyes were bright as he stared at Pei Yuan Shao,"Brother Pei, after the failure of the great teacher, haven't you seen it clearly?!”
"See what clearly?"
Pei Yuan Shao was dumbfounded.
"Look at this world clearly. It's not something that we, lowly people who can't even eat our fill and can't even read a few words, can conquer!!”
Zhou Cang's voice shook the entire arena, as if he was using all his strength to shout,""Only those aristocratic families, relatives, and relatives have a chance because they have money, food, people, and fame. They also have generals and soldiers, strategists, and the support of the aristocratic families!”
"If we commoners want to fight for a future, we can only choose one of them to be our leader!!”
"Other than that, there is no other way out!!”
After he finished speaking in one breath, the four to five hundred people inside and outside the hall were stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
They obviously didn't expect that their leader, who had always wanted to bring them to the government army, didn't just want to be a bandit.
He had actually thought so far ahead.
Following a wise ruler to establish a foundation was clearly a hundred times better than being a bandit here!
Fang Mu's eyes lit up.
"This Zhou Cang…isn't a brave but foolish warrior!”
Just this knowledge alone surpassed Pei Yuan Shao by too much.
It was no wonder that as a valiant general under Zhang Bao, he did nothing after the failure of the Yellow Turban uprising. He would rather occupy the mountain and be a small bandit than join the powerful Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan, White Wave Army Guo Tai, or Qingzhou Mount Tai bandits...
Zhang Jiao's failure had enlightened him!
"Brother Pei, don't look down on Zhang Yan, Guan Hai, and the others. They seem to be doing very well now. Once the various prefectures and counties really recruit soldiers and buy horses to suppress the bandits, they won't be able to hold on for long…"
Zhou Cang finally voiced out his inner thoughts and took advantage of the situation to persuade Pei Yuan Shao.
But although Pei Yuan Shao didn't understand what was going on, he felt that it was very serious.
However, he still shook his head firmly.
"No matter how reasonable you are, the most important thing in the village now is to let our brothers have their fill!”
He didn't look at Zhou Cang, his gaze falling on the bandits.""Let the brothers choose for themselves. Agree with your opinion, or follow me to rob merchants and fill their stomachs!”
As soon as he said this, the entire place fell silent.
The four to five hundred people were used to being ordered around, and they did not expect that the decision would fall into their hands. They looked at each other with blank expressions.
It could be seen that Zhou Cang had quite a reputation in the village and had many supporters.
But just as Pei Yuan Shao said.
The most important thing right now…was to eat!
If they couldn't even eat, how could they talk about seeking refuge with a wise lord and making contributions?
It was precisely because of this complicated mentality that the inside and outside of the hall fell into a strange silence.
Pei Yuan Shao impatiently rolled up his sleeves, grabbed his twin hammers, and was about to head down the mountain when a voice suddenly rang out.
"I disagree!"
His voice was clear and melodious as it spread throughout the entire arena.
