Twenty miles north of Taiyuan City, on the west bank of the Fen River.

Liu Tingzhao, the deputy of the Jin Palace, leaned on the back of the cushioned Taishi's chair, sat under a big tree, sipped tea with a celadon teacup, and glanced at the endless fields in front of him from time to time.

This field is the private land of the Jin Dynasty, with a total of more than 6,000 acres, and all the wheat is planted.

In late autumn in September, this large wheat field is already golden and looks beautiful in the sun.

In the wheat field, there are 1,000 households in the royal palace, who are lining up along the Fen River, burying their heads in cutting wheat.

When autumn is ripe, the wheat must be harvested.

Liu Tingzhao's purpose here is to supervise the autumn harvest, and he has to collect all the grain in the field as soon as possible, because the imperial court may fight with Qin Chuan at any time, and the war is chaotic, and any change is possible.

"The one surnamed Qin won't suddenly come out to grab food."

Liu Tingzhao subconsciously looked in the direction of Lou Fu to the west.

Last year, the grain robbery of the Jin Wangfu in the Loufu Valley is still vivid.

Until now, the palace can't help the person surnamed Qin, and even the fields in the Loufu Valley have all fallen into the hands of the surnamed Qin.

That guy is an insatiable wolf!

"Let's go, the mule cart is called, and some of the grain will be brought back first."

Thinking of this, Liu Tingzhao shouted to a steward who was directing the work of the Zhuang household not far away.

"Eh, listen to my father-in-law."

The steward smiled flatteringly and ran away.

Liu Tingzhao glanced at him casually, then continued to pick up the celadon teacup, blew the hot tea carefully, and took another sip.

"Hmm."

Liu Tingzhao, who was full of fragrance, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.

At this time, a black dot suddenly appeared in the direction of Mengshan Mountain in the west, followed by the faint but rapid sound of horses' hooves.

Liu Tingzhao, who was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves, opened his eyes and looked at the knight with some displeasure.

The comer, as if he had lost his mind, beat the horse with his whip desperately, and the horse galloped like madness towards the farmer who was harvesting wheat by the Fen River.

Liu Tingzhao frowned, and his face became more and more displeased.

He could barely see the man's appearance, not the guards of the palace, but the soldiers of Wang Zhong, the new chief soldier of Shanxi.

These newcomers are not long-sighted, and they dare to fight horses in front of their grandfather.

If he doesn't treat him, I'm afraid he won't know what kind of person Liu Gonggong in Taiyuan City is.

"Go, intercept him, bring him over for questioning."

Liu Tingzhao said lightly to the several palace guards next to him, and then continued to lean on the back of the chair and close his eyes to recuperate.

"Yes."

Several of the guards got on their horses and stopped in the direction of the knight's journey.

The knight did not come towards Liu Tingzhao, and did not seem to notice a few guards, but only rushed straight to the farmers who were harvesting the wheat.

"Run, the Qin thief is here! Run, the Qin thief is coming......"

When he was still far away, the knight tore open his throat and shouted.

Hearing this, the farmers in the field raised their heads and looked at him in bewilderment.

Liu Tingzhao bounced up from the Taishi's chair and blurted out, "Really?" ”

The knight didn't seem to hear it, but only turned a corner, shouted and swept past the villagers, and then ran straight towards Taiyuan City.

Liu Tingzhao turned his head and looked fixedly in the direction of Mengshan Mountain in the west.

At this time, there was a sudden burst of smoke billowing in the big tiger ditch at the foot of Mengshan Mountain, and the faint sound of horses' hooves seemed to be accompanied by bursts of shouts and screams.

"It's really coming." Liu Tingzhao's face changed greatly.

"Quick, quick, quick, quick, where's the mount? Where's Grandpa's mount? ”

Liu Tingzhao was like a headless fly, trembling around and accidentally kicking a tree stump and falling into a dog to eat.

The royal servants, who were feeding the horses with bellflowers, hurriedly led the horses over, and finally let him sit in the saddle with a push and pull.

Liu Tingzhao whipped down, and the mount under his crotch suddenly spread his hooves and galloped in the direction of Taiyuan.

Those who had mounts, such as the palace guards and stewards, also followed behind and fled for their lives.

The farmers in the fields also reacted, and they threw down their work and dispersed in a hurry.

At this time, the cavalry of Dahugou was also clear.

At the forefront were more than 100 Ming troops, which were the men and horses sent by Wang Zhong to Mengshan to investigate the movements of Qinchuan, there were about 300 people when they went, and now there are only about 100 people left.

Chasing after was a cavalry under the banner of "Zhou", about 1,000 people, roaring out of the valley and chasing after him.

As if noticing the situation here, the cavalry suddenly turned around and rushed towards the group of fleeing royal households.

Liu Tingzhao glanced back, and suddenly turned pale with fright and trembled.

It just so happened that the mount under the crotch suddenly jumped high, jumped over a ridge, and when it landed, it shook violently, and Liu Tingzhao, whose legs and feet were weak, crooked, fell to the ground alive.

As if they hadn't seen it, the guards and stewards of the palace swept past Liu Tingzhao in the blink of an eye, and they all ran away in the blink of an eye.

Liu Tingzhao struggled to get up from the ground and limped after him.

The cavalry had already seen him, and quickly divided several knights into pursuit.

Liu Tingzhao shuddered violently and collapsed to the ground.

He was utterly desperate, for he had no mount and could not escape in the wilderness.

……

The general of the 1,000 horsemen was a lynx, and the reason why he played the "Zhou" character general flag was because his real name was Wednesday Cha.

After seeing a large group of people cutting wheat on the side of the Fen River, Bobcat decisively gave up the hundreds of Ming army routs and went straight to the group of people.

Qin Chuan told him that the most important thing in this expedition is food and people.

Under the command of Lynx, the 1,000-Guan Imperial Army split into two and outflanked the fleeing people from the left and right.

Two legs certainly can't outrun four legs, and with nowhere to hide in the vast farmland, the people were quickly driven back.

When these frightened people were driven into a pile, the lynx came out of the crowd, glanced at it, and then learned Qin Chuan's tone, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Fellow villagers, we are not bandits, but the army under the command of General Lou Fuqin. ”

"Everyone knows that General Qin's army never oppresses the common people, not only that, but General Qin also took in more than 100,000 hungry people, gave them food, gave them fields, let them have a house to live in, and can afford to marry an aunt."

"I'm here this time, just to take everyone to Loufu, Lanxian, Lanzhou and other places, to give the big guys a full meal, and divide the fields for the big guys to cultivate."

"Rest assured, these fields will only charge you thirty percent of the rent, and there will be no additional allotments or forced labor."

"Now, the big guy will first harvest the wheat in these fields of the Jin Palace, and the general will take out half of the grain and distribute it to you, because this grain is planted by you with hard work."

"Go, go and cut the wheat."

With that, the lynx waved his hand and motioned for his men to send the farmers back to the wheat fields.

Most of the farmers were so frightened that they were at a loss, and some even collapsed on the ground and cried.

But there are also quite a few people who have calmed down.

They began to realize that it wasn't a bad thing for them.

The news that General Lou annoyed Qin treated the people well and took in the hungry people had already spread throughout Shanxi.

Those farmers who had calmed down took the initiative to return to the fields, picked up sickles and continued to cut the wheat, and some of them looked in the direction of the west from time to time, their faces full of hope.

"Leave 200 people here to protect the people, and the rest of the people will follow me to sweep away the counties and towns around Taiyuan."

Seeing that the people were gradually settling down, the lynx quickly ordered the two hundred people left behind, and then led the remaining eight hundred horsemen to roar away in the direction of Taiyuan.
