Chapter 1051 Emperor Shao’s Kingdom (added to the Alliance Leader Zheyiwen)
In midsummer, Bianliang is also hot.
The servants were slowly building the Liang Palace, while the new soldiers looked at them curiously, with a hint of pride.
These are all the soldiers or men from the Zuo Feilong Guard and Zuo Jinwu Guard, with a total of 4,000 people. There are more left Feilong Guard and fewer the latter.
They will be the newly established soldiers of the Heihuo Central Camp and will set off for Luoyang.
Zuo Xiao’s cavalry guard will also contribute a thousand children, but I wonder if those who have pressed their handprints to go to Hongcheng and Pingcheng will regret it.
The ordinary households in Chen and Liang counties contributed hundreds more, supplemented by a large number of martial arts students, which was the entire camp of Heihuo.
Feng Bachi, the deputy general of the Longxiang Mansion of Pingqiu, led 300 people to maintain order on the grass near Liang Palace.
"Can you walk twenty miles a day with these mobs?" Sima Xiawu, the other department of Nanliufang in Chutai Prefecture, wiped the sweat, feeling worried.
"How did your troops choose the people? Nanliufang's three hundred people came out in full swing?" Feng Bachi looked at the flag and drums and asked.
"What else can I do if I don't do this..." Xia Wu said, and saw at least three military flags erected behind Feng Bachi, he immediately smiled: "Everyone wants to go to Beijing to receive rewards."
"I can't make much money." Feng Bachi waved his hand and said, "I think it will take half a month to walk, so I will only receive a piece of silk for a reward, at most two. Remove the expenses on the road, and then How much money can you pay if you calculate the work that your family has been delayed? ”
"If you give two pieces of silk, you can save a little flower, and you can fall one piece." Xia Wu said with a smile.
Feng Bachi also smiled and said, "Are you planning this little money?"
"My family has seven sons, all of them are alive." Xia Wu said in silence for a moment.
"You..." Feng Bachi was shocked. You just crawl onto a woman if you have nothing to do, right?
Moreover, this person is definitely not over thirty-five, and may be in his early thirties.
People who get married and have children at the age of fifteen are really scary...
"The third son has grown up and is fifteen years old." Xia Wu said again, "The court has been kind to him and has given him a deserted field nearby, so the two sons have to buy a countryside. But now they still need to buy a land."
< br>
"Have you seen the place?" Feng Bachi said curiously.
"There is a field over the Kuragaki area, which is only a few dozen miles away from the blowing platform, not very far away." Xia Wu said.
"You have been involved in this life," said Feng Bachi.
"After Qi'er got married, my clan party will flourish and die with peace of mind." Xia Wu not only did not feel bitter, but instead smiled and said, "It is not impossible for grandchildren to be as many as fifty."
Feng Bachi really admires him.
"When the southern expedition is there any order to transfer the left Jinwu Guard? Can General Feng hear the sound of the wind?" Xia Wu asked.
"It's hard to say." Feng Bachi also had a urge to go south to rob.
Although the Daliang army's discipline and robbery were strictly controlled, they were all required to seek property by donating donations - some people jokingly call "redemption of city money" - they were not allowed to be happy at will, but the money was real.
When the Zuo Yulinwei, who was expeditioning to Liangzhou, returned to Puyang and Jibei, there were large and small bags on the ox cart. Feng Bachi even saw a large iron cauldron. He heard that it was distributed as a reward after being awarded, but he didn't know how those people would go back to share it.
"How much land does General Feng have in Pingqiu?" Xia Wu asked again.
"There are currently 700 acres." Feng Bachi said, "It's not easy to buy the land. It's not too big to buy. It's not very powerful and it's very inconvenient to take care of it."
"In fact, it's not that difficult to buy." Xia Wu said, "Continue to travel through the fields and clear out the fields occupied by the wealthy family Yu Yongjia."
Feng Bachi nodded, this is the reason. What kind of virtue did the aristocrats occupy so much land?
"How much rent is collected in the family?" Xia Wu asked.
"I have four, and my part has six."
"General Feng is really kind and righteous." Xia Wu was solemn and respected.
"The department needs to receive taxes and labor service." Feng Bachi said, "Although the family only takes 30 acres, it is not easy. It can't be eaten a few times a year."
"There are still wine and meat?" Xia Wu said in surprise: "My family can only eat millet and wheat. If there is a disaster, you will also eat flowers in spring, stems in summer, fruit in autumn, and fruit in winter, or prepare some Only by eating enough with bran and vegetables.”
"If there is a disaster, don't you reduce the rent?" Feng Bachi frowned and asked.
"Why should I reduce the amount of the Shengkou I caught back?" Xia Wu asked back.
Feng Bachi sighed.
This person is as fierce as the Han clan who helped him manage his family business.
He never learned this kind of cruelty.
"There are rewards for the troops, and I think life can continue." Xia Wu said disapprovingly: "Your Majesty, they all have red eyes to rob."
Feng Bachi laughed after hearing this.
A group of hungry wolves went south and tried their best to fight. Once you can't stop, you really don't know what will happen.
The only one who can calm them is His Majesty.
"Dongdongdongdong..." A drum sounded not far away.
A group of martial arts students who seemed to be under the age of twentieth stood up, fully armed, holding a horse whip in their hands, and beat the new recruits who were standing there stupidly and didn't know howled.
Feng Bachi looked at him with his arms folded.
There is a market near where the recruits lined up. Some vendors squatted on the ground to sell fruits, vegetables, chickens, ducks, poultry and eggs. They all stood up to watch the fun.
Feng Bachi walked over.
The vendors saw a jingling soldier coming over and were at a loss.
Feng Bachi bent down and picked up a few dried mulberries. He sighed: "When he was young, he lived in the countryside. When the mulberries were ripe, he often picked and dried. In the bad years, he had few chestnuts, so he could eat them. He had not eaten this food for many years, but unexpectedly, he was not surprised to see them again today. See."
"Officials know the sufferings of the people." The man who sells dried mulberries said nervously.
"Haha." Feng Bachi smiled happily and said, "All of them are suffering. They suddenly become rich and noble. What can I do? Before going out, I just fermented a pond of hemp. Do farm work in my spare time to loosen my muscles and bones. , only when you go into battle will you have the strength.”
The vendor looked at the armor pieces of different colors, the bows and swords on his waist, and the silk pads inside the armor, and knew that this person was probably a military officer who had won wealth through his military merits.
Such people are not uncommon in the countryside, especially Chen Liu, who is crowded with Zuo Jinwu Guards. To put it bluntly, there are few normal people here and many military households. Feng Bachi asked about the price, took out a few Kaiping Tongbao and handed it to him, bought a large bag of dried mulberries and carried it on his body, and asked while eating it, "Have you ever gone to war?"
"How can you not go out for years to fight?" the vendor said with a dry smile.
"Have you gone to war last year?"
"I didn't last year. I transferred food and grass when I was fighting the Xianbei a few years ago, and I went to Yanmen once." said the vendor.
"Have you delayed the farm work?"
The vendor paused and said, "I was about to go and collect wild chestnuts and acorns, but I was consigned."
"Confiscated?"
"The family went to collect it, and a large basket was missing. The officials didn't know that they had to collect three or four baskets and steam it as food for three winters to get everything."
"There is not enough food?"
"Emperor Shao divided the land, which was enough to eat. But who could eat wild vegetables, elm leaves, chestnuts, acorns, and dried mulberries? Who would eat food? The food is expensive, so you have to save it."
When Feng Bachi heard this, he felt a sense of intimacy and asked, "Have you been a villager before?"
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
"Yes, a guest from Wujiazhuang."
"Is life better now?"
"It will be better if you don't have a manor plan to collect surplus grains."
Feng Bachi smiled happily and said, "You have the benefits of Emperor Shao, and I have the benefits of Emperor Shao. The emperor of the Sima family made this happen, and the wife's wife is not guaranteed."
The vendor heard this and wanted to speak but stopped.
"What do you want to say?" Feng Bachi stuffed a dried mulberry into his mouth and said vaguely.
"I heard that Princess Yu is in the palace of the emperor?" Seeing that Feng Bachi was easy to talk, the vendor asked with courage.
"Princess Yu? Which Princess Yu?" Feng Bachi was stunned.
"Just the Chenliuyu family, it's very famous." said the vendor.
Feng Bachi thought about it and it seemed that Han once said that Sima Rui's wife was named Yu Meng's mother?
"She has been dead for many years." After thinking about it, Feng Bachi laughed and scolded: "You are a business dealer, but you don't do business well, but you are inquiring about these things."
"I feel comfortable listening to the Yu family." The vendor said embarrassedly.
"There are still people in the Yu family." Feng Bachi said with a wicked smile.
The vendor's face turned pale.
There were some people next to the vendor, but they didn't dare to be so bold, just listened with their ears.
Feng Bachi swept and found that someone was selling salt cheese, so he spent money to buy some and prepared to share the food with a few old brothers on the way.
"Salt cheese is cheap." After buying it, he said casually.
"It's just that cheaper." said the vendor who sells dried mulberries, "I don't know why, but the purchase price is cheap."
"Oh? Is there anything wrong?" Feng Bachi looked at the vendor who was picking up salt cheese in front of him and asked.
The vendor's face was full of wrinkles. When Feng Bachi asked, he said timidly: "Yes... it's cheap."
"Why?" Feng Bachiqi said.
"There are great Shangdang...the big merchants come to Bianliang Fangcheng City." The vendor was not good at speaking, but his subordinates were very quick. They put a big bag in just a few seconds and said, "After opening the market, they sold a lot of salt cheese, which was cheap. .”
After saying that, he added: "I heard that the salt-cheese rich people in Hanoi and Puyang are scolding."
Feng Bachi didn't know what the market was, and he thought to himself: Why didn't there be any bullshit Shangdang merchants come to Bianliang to sell salt and cheese? I'm spending so much money.
But being cheap is a good thing.
The shortest food in the army is not allowed to eat salt cheese, jerky, fermented black beans, salted beans or other foods.
Especially the salt cheese, which is very hungry and easy to carry.
When the cavalry rushes around the back, they often appear granulated cheese, and make it into powder and place it in a cowhide water bag.
When chasing the enemy, pour some water into the water bag and seal the hole tightly. When riding a horse, shake it directly for you and you can eat and drink on the horse's back.
No one in the north loves cheese, even the aristocratic families often eat it.
"This must be the emperor's love for the people, so he implemented this strategy so that everything is cheap." Feng Bachi said like a brainless fan.
"Maybe it is." The vendor replied with his head down.
"You have to learn from others. You just don't steal or rob to do business. What's the shame?" Feng Bachi put away the salt cheese, threw it behind his back with the bag of dried mulberries, and left directly.
On the grassland, the recruits had already lined up, with fear hidden on their faces, and some anger were occasionally mixed.
"Go!" The drum sounded quickly, and the officers who were holding flags on their backs waved their hands and led the recruits to the west.
This time, they walked through the mountain roads in Mi County and Yangcheng, which was a marching exercise.
Feng Bachi sat on the ox cart, leisurely looking at the countryside with smoke curling in cooking.
Everything is in order, everyone is full of hope, and feels that they can achieve their wishes in the future.
Perhaps, this is the great rule of the world.
Emperor Shao's country became more and more stable.
(Tomorrow's first update afternoon, I'll go to bed first.)
