After the text inventory is over, the next step is to inventory the video.

First video:
The land of Shaanxi, where there has been a severe drought for several years.

On an official road with people coming and going, the refugees fleeing famine all looked pale.

Many people fell on the side of the road as they walked, turning into dead bodies.

Those hungry red-eyed people simply ate human flesh.

"Li Hongji, you are asking for salary maliciously! Do you want to die? If you don't want to die, quickly kneel down and kowtow to me three times, then go back to the barracks."

More than a dozen of the kingdom's tall and burly soldiers were also swearing at Li Zicheng and others.

Li Zicheng glanced at his comrade behind him, and suddenly shouted loudly,

"Brothers, we joined the army to protect the country just to earn some money to support our family. I hate this general kingdom, who has money to go to the city to hire prostitutes to play tricks, but they don't pay us a penny.

Brethren, if we have no money, our families will starve to death at home.

In the past few months, how many brothers' parents and elder brothers have starved to death?Shall we still endure it?
These dog officials didn't give us a way to survive, so we cut off his dog's head, and it's against his mother! "

"Left and right soldiers, behead Li Zicheng, a traitor, for me."

Several soldiers surrounded him with knives and guns.
