At the same time, in order to seize the hearts of the people, Liu Zhiqiang imitated the future generations and set the eight big rules of the Heaven Valve Military Administration:

(1) Listen to the commands of all actions, and achieve victory by taking steps in unison;

2. Not to take advantage of the poor people, poor people like me;

(3) to make efforts to reduce the burden on the poor by returning all seized goods to the army;

4. If you do not tease or commit adultery, otherwise, the military law will not show mercy;

5. The sale price is fair and no one is allowed to be overbearing or overbearing;

(6) to not damage agricultural crops and to not damage fifty military sticks;

(7) compensation shall be paid for the damaged or damaged items, and not a bit less than the compensation for the damaged or damaged items shall be paid according to the price;

8. Be kind and don't beat or curse each other, and supervise each other not to violate the rules.

Preserving the mountains and rivers, apart from internal instructions, opening up territories and expanding the seas.

The ones that couldn't be invited could only be robbed. There was no helping it, his current military officer's education level was too low, this was also the performance of the current generation's culture, only a few people had the ability to study, ordinary people only wanted to eat and wear warm clothes, there was no time, if they had the money they could study, plus having the children study, it would mean they were missing a labourer.

At this moment, Liu Zhiqiang had already become the tyrant of Cheng Xiang County. Of course, no one could have imagined that this tyrant of Chengxiang would actually be a babysitter. The locals only knew that these bandits had recently become rich and had expanded their manpower. In order to quickly become an army, Liu Zhiqiang only asked the people he was in charge of to commit adultery.

Normally, he would hand over the task to Wen Shou Si, Old Qin San, and Li Ben. For some Elementary Scholars, not to mention those who couldn't even afford oil and salt, they were persuaded by Wen Shou as being rather sensible; while for those who couldn't make it, they could only be tied down by Old Qin San and Li Ben. Liu Zhiqiang didn't set a rule that they couldn't rob rich people, and according to Wen Shou's report, they were very gentle in their actions, but forcefully tied up and returned, without beating them or scolding them. This was what the Elementary Scholars did.

It was said that Chen Ziwen, a shrewd scholar who had been unable to pass the examinations throughout the year, had spent almost all of his family's money. In the beginning, his family was rich, he had a large number of literati friends, swine friends, and dog friends, but as soon as his family's money was exhausted, he was left behind in front of his family, while his relatives took the opportunity to swallow his family's land and leave them in the streets, relying on begging for leftovers for a living. He was ashamed that he had spent his entire life studying those eight pieces of writing and didn't even know how to deal with things.

In these days, Chen Ziwen had already been freed from the corruption of a cultured man, becoming a bit more at ease, and his personality had also become more frivolous. Because he was familiar with the ways of the world, he often succeeded in stealing all the food he could eat, and he also frequently sent food to the beggars around him, and in this area, he became a certain power of beggars. A small gang, of course, couldn't compare to a real gang.

Because he threw too many stones at someone else, the butler did not know that it was a beggar who threw them away. He thought that he had angered the people in the neighborhood, because he was worried about stealing away the wealth of the family, and because he still had a little bit of conscience left in his heart, he could only helplessly let them go.

This morning, Chen Ziwen was dragged around by a few servants, and then the butler pointed at his head and said, "You think you're the Chen family's eldest young master? Why did you come so quickly? It's been a few days and you still don't know how to write the word 'die'?" Then he waved his hand.

Chen Ziwen then threw it over to the other servants, who then spat at Chen Ziwen who was lying on the ground and shut the door of the original Chen Residence.

After the door was closed, a few beggars came over to pick up Chen Ziwen, who was playing dead on the ground. Chen Ziwen only pretended to be stupid for a short while, rolling his eyes and revealing his dark pupils. He looked at the beggars and said, "I'm fine, just a few ingrate can't kill me. Let's go!"

As he walked through the streets of C Village, he looked around at the residents who were glaring at him coldly. He then looked at the food on the beach, which he could no longer afford, and gulped down his saliva.

Ye Zichen waved his hand, then got the beggars to follow him towards the outskirts of the town.

Suddenly, a crackling sound came from behind him. It was neat like a human being.

Chen Ziwen and a few beggars turned around and saw two rows of people in strange clothing jogging along the street. It was not only their leather shoes, but also their orderly footsteps and steel-like movements.

Chen Ziwen wasn't the only one who was constantly watching the group of nearly four hundred people. As the two leaders of the group responded, they shouted, "One, two, three, one, listen to the commands of the first two leaders and achieve victory in unison; one, two, three, two, not only do not support the poor, but the poor also like me; one, two, three, three, all gains must be returned to the army in order to reduce the burden on the poor. One, two, three, four …" In addition to the two leading the way, the two rows behind him were arranged in an orderly manner, from low to high. Their footsteps jogged across the street as if they were following the rhythm of the word.

A few days ago, when the local hawkers saw these strange clothes, they hid far away and closed their doors, but now, other than maintaining their novelty, they didn't hide anymore, because there were people who once ran into them and weren't able to hide or snatch them away. One of them, a man dressed in strange clothes, was shown with a stick when he was taking a rest by the river, when he was teasing the washerwoman by the river, people around him would bravely come out to do business, these people dressed in strange clothes would even buy snacks during their breaks, their money made people's hearts burn with envy.

Chen Ziwen looked at the bandits that passed by them, and his heart shook.

Chen Ziwen was distracted for only a moment before he said to the beggars who were still distracted, "Go check out who these people are, and where they're from and what they do with their clothes." The beggars all nodded. Except for one beggar who chose to stay and hold onto Chen Ziwen, the other beggars all ran off to get some information.

Chen Ziwen said to the beggar that stayed behind, "Yao San, you go too, I'm fine." As he spoke, he let go of Yao San and stroked his hand.

Hearing this, Yao San said, "I do know a little about them, but I don't know much about them. But Big Brother Chen, you …"

Chen Ziwen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I won't die. Go on!"

Yao San could only say, "There are still some food hidden in the weeds at home."

Looking at Yao San leaving, Chen Ziwen thought to himself: "Who are these people dressed in strange clothes? They look like bandits, not soldiers." Enduring the pain and hunger on his body, he walked towards the living area outside of the city. It was a dilapidated temple with only three walls. This temple gave off a very homey feeling when there was no breeze and no rain.

He had to spend a lot of time to find Yao San's stash of food, eating these grains, which he had never seen nor knew how to eat before, but now he was eating them very sweetly, slowly experiencing the warmth of human nature. After a few hours, four beggars came back to report, and the one called Yao San took a piece of paper and handed it to Chen Ziwen before they lay down together on a pile of grasses.

Chen Ziwen was lying down on a pile of grass as he took the folded document. He looked at the document before looking at Yao San, who then pouted at the folded document in Chen Ziwen's hands.

Chen Ziwen had no choice but to open the folded paper. He saw that he had been born with a wealth of knowledge and was an Elementary Scholar, so he still took paper very seriously.

On the paper, written instructions were given: This army is from Yanling Mountain, it has changed to the Heaven's Gate Mountain, the Heaven's Gate Army is established, it is considered to be the internal governance, it needs many people who know how to read and write, the Elementary Scholars are given better treatment, this army will be treated with the courtesy of the Scholars, the main teaching will be taught to read and write, the families will receive two taels of silver per month for their servants, the army will not fight back with the imperial court, they will be able to do wrong with others, they will not stay in high school, at the same time they will pay a high price —

Looking at this weird notice, Chen Ziwen felt a sense of wonder. What the hell? There are even bandits recruiting Elementary Scholars and becoming an army by themselves. Is this a rebellion? Just a bunch of bandits?

Yao San looked at Chen Ziwen, who had a puzzled and strange expression on his face, and said: "This message was sent by the bandits of Yanling Mountain. Many houses in the village were posted, as well as the surrounding villages.

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "Originally, no one knew, but later on some of the old masters' servants said that it was the people from this mountain who did it, and I also heard that it was done by them. "It was a brother of mine who helped people carry the salt. Yanling Mountain is very powerful right now, and most of the salt merchants are actively trying to curry favor with them. The poor Elementary Scholars nearby are all forced to go up the mountain to teach the bandits."

Chen Ziwen said, "Is that the Mountain Bandit we saw this morning?!"

Yao San nodded his head, saying, "I heard from my brothers outside the village that these bandits have been running around the village for a lot in the past week. Sooner or later, each of them will be arrested by Big Brother Chen for a few days.

Chen Ziwen loosened his grip on the gun, feeling the pain from the blow to his arm.

Chen Ziwen thought: Look at this Mountain Bandits' singing and drinking when they were training this morning, forcefully grabbing the Elementary Scholars to teach, it seems this leader of the bandits has some experience!

Chen Ziwen then personally went outside to find out the situation. Although his family fortune had been taken away, there were still some close relatives in the village, as long as they didn't testify in the county hall, they could still speak a few words about the matter of Chen Ziwen's wealth being taken away. There was no other way, half of the land Chen Ziwen had taken away would fall into the hands of the county magistrate.
