- On the border of Hong Kong, more than a hundred people are constantly fleeing for their lives. These people are all local indigenous people of Hong Kong. Because they participated in the conspiracy to riot, they were chased by the Ming army after the incident and fled for their lives.
"Quick, quick!"
"The border with Cornwall is just ahead. As long as you escape, you'll be fine."
John shouted loudly to the people behind him, and at the same time he used all his strength to run away, because he had faintly heard the sound of horse hooves, and they were chasing him from far to near.
He was originally a local native of Hong Kong, and his life was very hard in the past. However, after Hong Kong became a colony of the Ming Dynasty, his life became easier. With his hard work, his family could not only eat well and wear warm clothes, but also There are also plans to demolish the old dilapidated house and build a new one.
However, until recently, he was deceived by others and felt that all the life he had now was given by God, not by the Ming people. On the contrary, the people of the Ming Dynasty were pagans and heretics. As God's people, they should Overthrow the rule of the Ming people and drive them all out of Cornwall.
So he participated in the conspiracy to riot, preparing to riot with others, kill those Ming people, drive the Ming people out, and welcome the return of Henry VII.
However, people reported the matter before it even started. A traitor betrayed them and told the people of Ming Dynasty everything about them. As a result, they were brutally hunted down by the people of Ming Dynasty.
Originally there were hundreds of people plotting a riot, but after escaping for their lives, only a dozen of them were left.
"Hurry! Hurry!"
John ran for his life desperately, and soon he saw the boundary marker. He was overjoyed and ran away desperately.
"Haha~haha~"
"I am finally back in the arms of the great King of England!"
Having successfully escaped from the confines of Cornwall, John couldn't help shouting excitedly.
The dozen or so people who escaped with him all had smiles on their faces, and then quickly continued to flee away to prevent the Ming army from crossing the border to pursue them.
Escaped from Cornwall and entered Devon.
Tired and hungry, John and his party went directly to a small town in Devon County and explained everything to the town officials, hoping to get their help and provide them with food and a place to rest.
¡°Bang!¡±
"Is this something people eat?"
"We risked our lives for the great England, and they gave us horse bread."
The town officials readily agreed to their request and provided them with food and accommodation, but when the dark, hard horse bread was brought to their tables.
John and others couldn¡¯t help but explode.
Horse bread, they haven¡¯t eaten horse bread for a long time.
Since Cornwall became the Hong Kong of the Ming Dynasty, they have begun to eat soft bread, rice, corn and sweet potatoes from the Ming Dynasty. Many people have even become accustomed to eating food from the Ming Dynasty. , like noodles, steamed buns, rice noodles, etc.
"As long as they work for Ming merchants and trading houses, they will have a meal at noon, pork stewed with vermicelli, which is the best for many people. As for horse bread, they have forgotten what it tastes like.
Here in Hong Kong, even horses eat better than this. Livestock will not go to horse bread. In major stores, you can no longer find horse bread to buy. The worst food is sweet potatoes. , but even sweet potatoes are a hundred times more delicious than this horse bread.
He had been raised by Daming's food. After more than two years, he was recruited with horse bread again. These dozens of people who escaped from Hong Kong were fried one by one.
"Come here~ come here!"
"We have worked hard for the king, and this is how you treat us?"
John looked at the town official, holding a hard piece of horse bread in his hand, his eyes as wide as a bull's eye.
I thought that after escaping to Devonshire, I could at least be regarded as a warrior. Henry VII should treat himself well, and granting himself the status of a nobleman was nothing more than that.
But everything was ruined. The food they were fed turned out to be horse bread. In Hong Kong, even feeding horses is disgusting.
"Whether you like it or not!"
"Here, there is only horse bread, and you only deserve to eat horse bread."
The town officials looked at them and said coldly.
A group of humble poor people, without any identity or status, only deserve to eat horse bread.
 nbsp;As Jiang Liang's order was issued, the heads of the first batch of more than a hundred people put on trial were flying with bright sword lights.
"Death penalty!"
"Death penalty!"
"Execution!"
Group after group of prisoners were pressed up, and without exception, they were all sentenced to death.
Blood dyed the sea water next to it red, and the headless corpses were pushed aside like a hill. The human heads were pushed together, so ferocious and terrifying that everyone present could not help but shiver.
Too cruel!
Killing all the arrested people at once, everyone was deeply shocked by the scene in front of them, and firmly remembered it all.
"My name is Tom!"
"I used to be a fisherman. I risked my life every day to go fishing. Most of the time, I harvested very little. But even so, I still had to pay half of the fish to the local nobles, and another tenth of the harvest. church."
"So my family is very poor. We don't even have enough to eat every day. What we eat is the most unpalatable and hardest horse bread. When it comes to Christmas, I can't even prepare a decent gift for the children." .¡±
"But since we became the people of the Emperor of Heaven, everything has changed."
"I don't have to risk my life to go fishing at sea. I can easily find a good job. As long as I work hard every day, I can earn two taels of silver every month, which is enough for my family. I have enough food and warm clothes, and I also saved money to build a new house, which is beautiful and clean.¡±
"My family has flour as white as snow and as fine as powder. We can still eat meat every now and then. We can go to the pub for a drink. We no longer need to pay high taxes, nor do we need to pay one-tenth of our own money to the church. income."
"I am very satisfied with my current life. It is the Emperor of Heaven who has given me everything I have now, allowing me to live a decent life."
"We must be grateful and grateful for the emperor's kindness and gifts, and we must keep this firmly in our hearts."
¡°The life that Henry VII gave us was to eat horse bread, wear tattered linen clothes, and live in shabby houses like pigsties. The life that Emperor Tomorrow gave us was to have abundant food and clothing, and to live a life with hope, dignity, and a future. life."
"Long live the Emperor of Tomorrow!"
At the end, when it came time to complain, people who had already been arranged came forward one after another to talk about the days they lived in the past, and then compared them with the lives they live now. They used the simplest, direct, and sharpest comparison to tell everyone that as a big man, Tomorrow¡¯s people are the happiest.
