What happened in Kyoto was very satisfying to King Hei. It can be said that he achieved the desired goal without much effort, and it was even better than he expected.

"Zeng Baihu's method is really effective." Ping Wang said happily.

"yes. Zeng Baihu is really both civil and military. Zhu San sighed. He has always been by King Ping's side, so he naturally knows that King Ping is actually a person with a ravine. And a talent like Ah Hao is exactly what he wants to envelop.

"Lord Wang, it's time for this group of people to rise up." Zhu Si said. They are the henchmen of King Ping, so they naturally know what King Ping means.

"This time, we have to plan well, don't fight a turnaround, what will we take for everyone to rise?" King Ping said.

For several days, King Ping was discussing with the generals of the army how to arrange the troops. The new soldiers sent by the imperial court and a large amount of grain and grass finally arrived. Because this group of people is a strong man recruited from all over the world, King Ping personally welcomed everyone and spoke impassionedly, which made all the soldiers fight highly.

The people from Beixian County, King Ping sent them to Ah Hao's banner early in the morning and managed them by him.

These people knew Ah Hao's name before they came, and many people had seen him, but they weren't familiar with him. But being under his command made everyone feel extra relieved, after all, they came from thousands of miles away, and an acquaintance always felt better. Ah Hao took Zeng Dashan and Zeng Changping to personally settle everyone. brought Zeng Changan over to speak.

"Dad, big brother, Brother Hao." Zeng Changan excitedly untied the burden he was carrying. This burden, which weighed about thirty pounds, he carried all the way from his hometown, contained intimate clothes and food for the three of them, as well as some medicines. It's all specially arranged by Geng Qiu, and the food in the camp is naturally not very good, and it's good to be able to mix and be full. So as soon as Ah Hao and the three of them saw the large piece of jerky, their saliva was about to flow down.

Ah Hao picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth and chewed it, and asked with a smile: "Geng Qiu did it, right?" ”

"Yes, these foods were made by Brother Qiu himself, and I wanted to bring more, but I was afraid that it would be too heavy to carry it." Zeng Changan said regretfully. They came on foot, and they were in a hurry all the way, so how could they carry something too heavy. Everyone just carried a small baggage, some clothes and food.

"Brother Qiu's things are delicious." Chang Ping said as he ate, with a large piece stuffed in his mouth and a piece in his hand. It's like I haven't eaten it in 800 years.

"Okay, that's it, it's just a taste, is there anything like you?" Zeng Dashan scolded with a smile. Everyone hasn't seen meat for a while, and if you eat plainly, it's good to be able to fill your stomach, where can you have a large piece of meat to eat.

Zeng Changping grinned, but he reluctantly put back a piece of meat in his hand. Then he looked through the other two small jars and asked, "What is this?" ”

"Pickles, there are cucumbers, beans, carobs, radishes and other vegetables in them, Brother Geng Qiu said, I'm afraid you can't usually eat vegetables. Bring a little bit for you to taste the food too. ”

"Great. Don't be in a hurry to open it yet, I'll take a jar and give it to the prince to taste. Ah Hao said, picked up a few more pieces of jerky, and still wrapped them in the clean lotus leaves of the original three packets of meat.

After Ah Hao left, the father and son of the Zeng family talked for a while, and Zeng Changan went to rest.

King Ping got the things sent by Ah Hao, and said with a smile: "You brought it here at home?" ”

"Back to the prince, it was my Zhengjun who made it, and he was the best at getting food. It's all commonplace, but it's rare to eat here. ”

"Yes, since I came here, this king has not eaten anything good, and every day he wears mixed grains and brown rice with sand, and he wants to knock out his teeth. Don't expect to eat meat and drink soup. King Ping smiled.

His food is only slightly better than that of ordinary soldiers, and the so-called better means that he can eat enough, and it is all cooked in a pot, but it is just to fill him with an extra bowl and a half. Except for the beginning, he brought some food of his own, and then he ate the same as everyone else. It is precisely because he can do it without being special at all that he is especially loved by the soldiers.

King Ping picked up a small piece of jerky, chewed it carefully, and said with satisfaction: "It's delicious." It's delicious. After saying that, carefully put the rest away.

As for the pickles in the small jar, King Ping was even more reluctant to collect them well, and took out a few pieces to serve each meal. The place where they camped was very cold in winter, and the soldiers had to be busy building some defenses, and most of them had to practice constantly, so no one thought to grow some vegetables. Usually only a small amount of pickles are delivered from the grain and grass, so it is not easy to eat a la carte.

At night, Ah Hao took out the letter brought by Chang An, and the letter was divided into three letters, one letter was written by Ning Ge'er and dictated by Geng Qiu. In the letter written by Brother Ning, he just talked about the situation at home, and it was just to tell him not to worry about everyone in the family and take care. Instead, Ah Niu wrote a short letter to Ah Hao, saying that he missed him.

Ah Niu just learned to write, and his handwriting was not good, but Ah Hao burst into tears when he saw it. Finally, Geng Qiu wrote a letter, he is still not used to using a brush, but is written with charcoal, just a few sentences, he suggested that the soldiers also grow some vegetables to improve their lives, after all, eating pickles for a long time, and not getting fresh vegetables and fruits to nourish, is not good for the body. Because it was mentioned in Ah Hao's letter last time, many people have rotten corners of their mouths, which are all manifestations of vitamin deficiency. The most important thing is that Geng Qiu said that this is estimated to be a long-term war, and now it is up to the people to collect food, I am afraid that the treasury will be empty, and I will have to think of self-sufficiency.

Seeing that his son could write letters, Ah Hao was full of feelings. But Geng Qiu's Jianyì, he was very moved, I have to say that the life of the soldiers is really hard, except for the grain and grass when it is first delivered, you can bring a little vegetables, you can't eat for a long time, not even pickles. After all, vegetables are not easy to transport and will always rot on the road, so instead of this, everyone would rather bring more grain and pickles.

The next day, he told everyone about this idea, and sure enough, everyone agreed, especially those who came from Kyoto, everyone was originally raised by the family, who had suffered this kind of hardship, although they are now used to it, but no one is not happy to eat fresh food often. Especially after tasting the kimchi brought by Ah Hao's house, I miss the taste of the dish even more. Such a small jar, although everyone is embarrassed to clip more, but it can't stand the crowd, but it tastes the bottom of it.

They were fighting on the front line, and no matter how much their family had ideas, they couldn't bring them anything. It's hard to even write a letter, let alone bring these foods. At every meal, everyone very much hopes to get a little dish, even a few leaves, which can make everyone happy. It's a pity that there are very few such times. Most of the time, it's just a few coarse breads or a bowl of multigrain rice with sand, and even a handful of ground multigrain flour and a bowl of boiling water.

In fact, near the station, it is very empty, and there are many fields that are deserted, because many people have died, let alone near the station, and there are also many fields in other places that are deserted.

King Ping is also a man of action, to be honest, he has long thought that he must be self-sufficient, but there is no good way. Now that Ah Hao has gotten up, it has made him think of a better way. Instead of doing it yourself, it is better to get a group of people to come over and specialize in farming, anyway, there are a lot of empty fields here, just like the Beiliangwei in the past, where thousands of people live, life still depends on their own farming. He was here, and he could see more clearly that the Northern Barbarians had made up their minds to bite a piece of meat in the Daqing Dynasty. It is absolutely impossible to be expelled by them like this, not to mention that people don't know when they started planning, Bei Liang lost so quickly, he didn't believe that there was no cat.

So, King Ping wrote to the imperial court to establish a new guard in Jeju Province, in fact, the guard system of the Daqing Dynasty was not complete, and there were guards in Beiliang and Nan Reins before, and there were many people, after all, these two places were important places. In other places, there are basically only garrisons, and the so-called guard posts are all very small, or even nominal.

Now that King Ping has brought it up again, the ministers of the court and the central government have discussed it several times, and they have quickly agreed, but they have changed it slightly, and it is not considered a guard post for the time being, but they have to get a group of people to come over first, and then plan slowly. There were always some displaced people in various places, and there were no landless villagers, and the officials of the DPRK simply transported these people to Jeju Province and slowly rebuilt Jeju Province. Everyone understands that the treasury is empty, and the war with the Northern Barbarians will definitely not be finished immediately. And even if the battle is over, Jeju Prefecture and Xinzhou County, these places that were originally occupied by the Northern Barbarians, the people have long since died, and they have to relocate people. Anyway, this proposal was approved by everyone at once. So it was done very quickly. And immediately recruited villagers from all over the country.

Because the conditions offered by the imperial court were also extremely generous, those families who were already poor who had eaten the last meal but did not have the next meal, and even the whole family was waiting for death, as soon as they heard that they could divide the land, have a house to live in, and have food to eat, they immediately agreed to go to Jeju Province. Although they knew that there was a war going on here, they also knew that there were many dead people here, and there was indeed a lot of fertile land empty. Because these things were also mentioned in the letters sent back by the soldiers. As for whether their family will draw strong men to fight as soldiers in the future, where can they care now. I can't even live in front of me, can I still take care of what is behind me? What's more, even if you stay here, it doesn't necessarily mean that you won't be able to go to the battlefield. Anyway, not long ago, the imperial court had already drawn a strong man among the people. So this thing went very smoothly.

Perhaps because of the common goal, the court began to stabilize and settle down, and everyone was less intrigued. Even the emperor was unusual, as if he was twenty years younger, and he paid attention to the war with the Northern Barbarians every day. From time to time, the dead soldiers will be relieved of the people. It also made the ministers and princes dare not act rashly, and everyone is conscientious. For a time, all the corrupt officials and corrupt officials disappeared, and it actually created a clear era.
