Chapter 389, Frost Tianxiao 4
Li Yan said in a deep voice: "If you beat the prime minister of a country, it will be a joke in the army, if this is known to the king, not only will Mr. Zhang's reputation be damaged, but you will also have to suffer a lawsuit." γLatest chapter reading. γ β
Hearing this, Wu Xinlan was not afraid at all: "Hmph, what a good Li Gongzi, bring out the king to scare people, I'm not afraid, besides, who dares to say bad things about Zhang Yi, the first one surnamed Wu didn't agree, and made him a human meat bun with my own hands." β
At this time, a guest came in to rest, and when he heard this, he turned around and ran.
Zhang Yi stood beside Wu Xinlan and began to help: "That's it, Miss Wu saved my life, she is my benefactor, it's nothing to beat me a few times, except for her, who dares to say that I talk about fighting, no one can beat Miss Wu, no one can scold me." The two of us are one writer and one martial arts, heaven and earth, and the beads are combined."
Wu Xinlan grabbed his ear: "Who is in line with you?"
Li Yan hurriedly came over to persuade him, and looked at Qianniang: "Sister-in-law, quickly pull Miss Wu away, I have important matters to discuss with my husband, and besides, the king's herald is still here." β
Qianniang couldn't help but laugh and pulled Wu Xinlan to the counter. The two women looked at Zhang Yi, looked at each other again, lowered their heads and smiled secretly.
The herald came over, handed over the will to Zhang Yi, and then took his leave. At this time, the Qin army was not very powerful, and the territory was not large, so it did not have as big a faction and rules as when King Qin was in his previous life, and there was no need to kneel to receive the decree, but just offer it with both hands and take it with both hands.
After reading the holy decree, Zhang Yi sent the herald away, and then sat in the corner with Li Yan and discussed in a low voice. Zhang Yi said: "This errand is not trivial, just re-registering the population, measuring the land, and then distributing farm tools according to the capitation, must be completed within a month and a half." At present, there are at least 70,000 or 80,000 displaced people around our Xi'an City, this is only a rough estimate, if you really want to calculate it clearly, I think there may be no less than 100,000 people, so many people, you have to build houses, buy living utensils, I can't estimate how many people are needed. β
Li Yan said with a smile: "This shouldn't be too difficult, there are not many officials in Xi'an City at the moment, most of them are controlled by the Qin people, and they have to fight, so I think we can select some literate people among the displaced people, those who can do arithmetic, those who have been gentlemen, and those who have held public offices, and pick out these people and distribute affairs according to their strengths." You can also find some of the same people in the city, and I think a few hundred people can speed up the process considerably. β
Zhang Yi nodded: "This can be recommended by the lieutenant chiefs of each fang, and among the displaced people, you can also ask the village chief and the chief of the village to recommend upwards, and it is best to report it within a few days." β
Just do it, Zhang Yi and Li Yan returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and immediately issued the document, which was sent to all the villages before dark.
These lieutenants, the village is not afraid to slack off, because they are already very familiar with the people, so they know the details, they have according to the requirements, up to the registration form, two days later, the entire Xi'an inside and outside the village have submitted the list, Zhang Yi and Li Yan with their subordinates, according to the list of people, began to select.
They asked the list to be as detailed as possible, such as age, what kind of specialties they have, whether they have physical disabilities, whether they have serious diseases, whether they are competent for hard work, etc., and the list is clearly written.
After an overnight selection, they finally selected 360 people, all of whom were in the prime of life and could start working immediately. The two of them assigned these people according to their specialties and kept them busy until late.
The next day, Zhang Yi ordered all 360 people to gather on the school grounds. In front of everyone, he told them the will of the King of Qin, to settle the displaced people in Guanzhong and carry out the hoarding of fields, many of these people were also homeless, and when they heard what Zhang Yi said, they were all excited.
After Zhang Yi conveyed the will of the King of Qin, Li Yan began to distribute men. He divided the three hundred and sixty men into four teams, distributed on all four sides of the city of Xi'an, with ninety men on each side, led by officials in the Qin army, and began the specific work. Each team has all kinds of talents, some are in charge of measuring the land, some are in charge of registering the population, some are in charge of distributing farm tools, some are in charge of building houses, and all expenses are paid by Xi'an City.
Li Yan made it clear that the four teams of men and horses should work together to complete all the work in forty days. Whoever completes it quickly and well, the king of Qin should be rewarded, and whoever is passive and sluggish in the process and delays the time will be punished as an official and military spinner.
At the sound of the order, the surroundings of Xi'an City immediately became in an uproar. The four teams of people acted together, and then looked at the villages and towns around Xi'an City, which were crowded with people, and the vehicles were coming and going, which was more lively than rushing to the market.
Every homeless person must write his name, place of origin, age, and who his relatives are on the registration book, and after making the register, a special person will submit it to Zhang Yi and Li Yan as a household registration and enter it into the household registration. For this reason, Zhang Yi specially suggested to King Qin that he first set up a household department, and King Qin nodded and agreed.
For thousands of years, almost every court has six departments, officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers. At this time, the Qin army can be said to have only the military department, and the rest have not been created, and now since it is necessary to manage Guanzhong and set up a household department. The king of Qin ordered Li Yan to act as the head of the household first.
Li Yan was very happy, he knew that there were a considerable number of women among the homeless people, and it was best for these people to be led by someone, so he invited the Red Lady and Xiaoqing to take their women's army to go deep into the people, understand the people's suffering, and listen to what difficulties those women have.
At the beginning, Li Yan just wanted to let this group of women's army go deep into the people, so that the people could increase their intimacy with the Qin army, but he didn't expect this move to have an unexpected effect, because most of the women's army are widows, young girls, many people's families are broken, and the homeless people are very similar, and there is a sense of sympathy for the same disease, so the women's army immediately became the most intimate people of the homeless, these people scattered, every time they went to a family, they would complain to each other with the people, and when it came to sadness, everyone cried.
Some of these people were harassed by the peasant army, and some were also bullied by the official army, and their family members either died under the peasant saber, or were beheaded by the official army to repay the merits, so when it came to the thieves and the official army, everyone hated it to the bone, and invisibly, the homeless people regarded the Qin army as a savior and regarded it as their own people.
The Red Lady also lost no time in promoting the benefits of the Qin army to the displaced people, and within a few days, the attitude of the displaced people towards the Qin army was greatly improved. The four teams sent by Li Yan almost never encountered any obstacles, and everything went very smoothly. The people volunteered to join in, and they could build houses and carpenters, and there was a scene of welcoming a new life everywhere.
Just when Zhang Yi and Li Yan were making every effort to build a new countryside in Guanzhong, Wang Jian also began to act.
Wang Jian knew that this attack on the three sides was a long-distance attack, and it was advantageous to fight quickly, so he first sent a team of men and horses to escort grain and grass to Baishui County to wait. At this time, the county seat of Baishui was under the control of the Qin army, but because the people were scarce, the Qin army did not garrison there. Wang Jian ordered this team of men and horses to recover Baishui City first, annihilate the thieves, and then put up a notice to tell the people to come back and live in peace.
The army did not move, the grain and grass went first, Wang Jian finished arranging the grain and grass, and then he ordered 20,000 horses, 10,000 cavalry, and 10,000 infantry, divided into two battalions before and after, with Li Dang as the vanguard, led 3,000 cavalry to open the way, and followed with 7,000 cavalry, and the last 10,000 infantry, let the next lieutenant under the command, and began to march.
In the city of Xi'an, Bai Qi commanded the whole army, and there were still 10,000 horses left to guard the city. At the same time, the king of Qin ordered Wang Bao and Shehuai to guard Meixian and Tongguan.
There was a murderous aura in the Qin army.
Let's talk about Li Kang first, he took three thousand iron horses, known as the Flying Tiger Army, and went straight to Baishui County, all the way non-stop, at this time, he was not afraid of the spies of the official army to find out, because Li Dang threatened on the road that it was to occupy Baishui County, drive away the thieves, and appease the people.
When they came to Baishui County fifty miles away, the scouts reported that a group of people escaped from the city, it seemed that there were about a hundred or so horses, and they went all the way to the north, probably the thieves in the city, and when they heard the news that the Qin army was coming, they fled.
Li Dare snorted, this was what he had expected, so he ordered his subordinates to enter and occupy the county seat.
Three thousand men and horses came to the city to see, the city gate was wide open, empty, Li Dang did not directly swarm into the city, but first sent five hundred men and horses to see.
Not long after, someone reported that Baishui County was already an empty city, and Li Dang led people into the city.
As soon as he entered the city, Li Kang frowned, it turned out that the streets in the county town were in a mess, there were dead bodies lying on the ground, no one cleaned them up, and they were all ordinary people. Apparently, it was the gang of thieves who did it. Li Dare hated and hated, and ordered a thousand generals: "You take 500 people out of the city and behead all the thieves." β
The thousand always answered, and left with the people.
Li Dare ordered his men to clean up the streets and bury the bodies, because there was still a large army of men to be stationed behind. He looked around the county, and there was no one left. I thought that it would be good if there were no people, this county town was originally not big, and when the large group of people came, it would be able to live.
He cleaned up the city, and then ordered the people to go out of the city, rushed to the four towns and eight towns, and posted a notice to tell the people that the Qin army had been stationed in Baishui County, the thieves had been eliminated, and the people could come back to live. The notice was posted, and as for whether anyone dared to come back, Li Kang was not sure.
In the afternoon, Mr. Qian came back with his men and horses, and handed over orders to Li Dang, the gang of thieves had been completely wiped out, and none of them escaped, and he also caught the leader of the thieves and waited for him to fall.
