1626 Lombard's Struggle

What Gao Tianlu said is indeed what is happening.

After the establishment of the Champa Revival Association and returned to China, according to the information from the Skynet Army, Su Yonglin learned that peasant uprisings were constantly breaking out in Zhenla, with a large or small scale, and a long or short period of time.

The current ruler of Zhenla, Tribupanadiedovamore, usurped the throne, and there were many people opposing him in the country, but his military power was relatively strong. Although his rule was strict, his rule was relatively stable.

Su Yonglin wanted to prepare in advance, so he arranged a small organization for the Revival Association to follow the Tianwang Army and enter Zhenla Kingdom as a business traveler, settled in Zhenla Kingdom, learn the local language and culture, and observe the situation.

According to their observations, the domestic conflicts in Zhenla Kingdom have been around since Tribuna Diedovamore came to power. From time to time, small military unrest occurred, and the living conditions of farmers were getting worse and worse, and uprisings broke out in many places.

Although these uprisings have not been successful at once, it at least proved that there was soil for revolution in Zhenla, so Su Yonglin decided to bet on the Zhenla area and provide activity funds to allow them to take action in the Zhenla area.

It's true that their actions are quite efficient.

The son of a Zhenla businessman led a peasant uprising in the northeastern part of the Zhenla Kingdom.

The uprising was very small in scale and was soon defeated by local landlords and powerful people. The businessman's son retreated into the jungle area with a group of defeated soldiers and lost news.

This is nothing unexpected. Such a thing is not a rare thing in the local area. If it doesn't happen twice or three times a month, it will make people feel abnormal.

But this peasant uprising was really abnormal, because the organizer of the uprising, the son of the merchant, actually organized the peasants to carry out the uprising in the first volume of Hongwu Political Comment.

When they learned the news, the members sent by Su Yonglin to Zhenla were very surprised. Unexpectedly, someone had read Hongwu political commentary in the deep mountains and forests.

The local Skynet Army in Annan led several revival members from southwest Annan through some channels and relationships to the northeast of the Zhenla Kingdom, where they found the son of the merchant.

When he found this person, he had a undressed face, his hair and beard were very long, his clothes were ragged, and his bones were as thin as his hair, and he looked like a savage from the primitive society.

At this moment, only thirty-six people were left following his subordinates. They hunted here, ate wild fruits, lived in trees, fought against the violent beasts and poisonous snakes, and survived with difficulty.

His name is Lombalin, and he can communicate in simple Chinese. Although his accent is quite special, the Revival members who are not very familiar with the language of the Zhenla region have a wonderful encounter with him, and their communication is actually very smooth.

Lombalin was very surprised that these Ming people could find him and thought it would not happen. However, because the other party was a Ming people, he was not alert, but chatted openly with them and told his past.

It turned out that his father was a maritime businessman who traveled between Zhenla and Quanzhou to do business. He was still a well-known rich man in Zhenla Kingdom. His family had a powerful and wealthy family, so he had a very good living environment since he was a child.

When he was a child, he was taken to Quanzhou by his father to see the world. He lived in Quanzhou for five or six years. He mastered the ability to communicate simply and was even better in reading and writing Chinese characters.

In the sixth year of Hongwu, he was in Quanzhou and was brought to him by his father. His father said that this was a book written by the emperor of the northern power. In Quanzhou, which was under the jurisdiction of the Southern Song Dynasty, it was a banned book and could not be promoted to the public, but could be read secretly.

So he read the book under his father's guidance.

Lombarin said that his father was his leader and highly praised this book, thinking that Ming was an amazing country and the emperor of Ming was also an amazing person. He also said that this book would definitely have a great effect in the future, so that he could collect it well and study it carefully if he had time.

But at that time, he was not as deeply aware of this book and did not remember it seriously in his heart.

In the eighth year of Hongwu, the Ming Dynasty went south to destroy the Song Dynasty. The situation in Jiangnan was turbulent. Lumbarin and his father left Quanzhou due to the war and returned to Zhenla to live, preparing to wait until the situation eased before returning.

As a result, his family encountered a catastrophe. For some reason, he offended the current king who usurped power and seized the throne and was brutally exterminated. His father died tragically in order to cover his escape. He ran alone and fled to the northeast.

He lost everything and only brought the Hongwu political comments that his father had stuffed into his arms before he died.

In the years that followed, in order to survive, he joined the refugee team and found a large landlord family who was willing to recruit refugee farming, signed a contract to sell their bodies, became a serf, and farmed the land for the owner all year round, and exchanged for food for food.

During his time as a serf, he deeply understood the sufferings of the life of the lower-class farmers and witnessed with his own eyes how the landlord class abused and enslaved the serfs. He himself was whipped in pain because of several times.

This was an unimaginable suffering in his past life.

At this time, Hongwu's political commentary became his spiritual pillar. Every time it was late at night, he would secretly go to a place with a little light outside the landlord's yard. He read through that light, read it over and over again, and shed tears over and over again.

Gradually, he felt that he had sublimated, a little different, and his perspective on things was completely different.

He began to try to secretly establish reputation among the serfs who worked hard with him. Some were injured and he was the first to come forward to help. Some were hungry. He squeezed out some of his own food to help others. Some were bullied. He must come forward to help.

Although he was beaten up miserably every time, he took it all.

Gradually, he had the right to speak among the serfs, and some people began to listen to, some believed, and some followed.

Later, he could not suppress his desire to rebel. He began to secretly teach the serfs the principles of Hongwu political theory, and taught them to read and write Chinese characters and local texts of Zhenla Kingdom, help them open their horizons and talk about some things they had experienced before.

So he became more prestigious.

A year ago, the landlord they served probably saw that their lives were barely still like that, and felt that this would not work and would not make him further money. So he decided to modify the agreement with them and increase the proportion of food handed over.

By doing this, everyone’s mentality was broken.

The original food ration was barely enough to make a living in Hukou. Now, if the proportion of food being handed over is further increased, should they still eat or survive?

So everyone resisted and raised strong protests. At this moment, Lombarin became the leader of the protest movement, leading everyone to protest strongly, and using the resistance of not farming or employed workers, he asked the landlord to modify the measures and make compromises.
