Chapter 307: Mingzhenfu County (2)

"Name?"

"Lin An"

"Where? What is the age? ”

"A native of Tongjiang County, Bazhou, born in the first year of the Apocalypse."

The sergeant in charge of registration was also a baby face, and when he heard Lin An report his home, he couldn't help but look up at him.

Seeing the panic on Lin An's face, a gentle smile appeared on this person's face, "Don't be afraid, my name is Jiao Mintong, I am a year older than you, and I have been coerced by thieves before, and now you see, I am the captain of the Longxiang Battalion." ”

Hearing Jiao Mintong say this, and looking at his equally youthful appearance and gentle smile, Lin An's mood suddenly relaxed.

"Jiao, Jiao Ye, we'll be fine, right? Can you let me go, my wife is still at home. ”

Hearing Lin An's words that were almost pleading, Jiao Mintong laughed suddenly.

He was originally called Jiao Tong, because of his outstanding performance in the army, he was given the name Jiao Mintong by the second brother, in his opinion, Liujia Village is the most stable place in the world, and this young man doesn't know how lucky he is.

"Just call the same brother, don't think about it first, I've told you, now you are all my second brother's people, let's live here with peace of mind."

Jiao Mintong looked at the prisoners who were in the back of the line and also pricked up their ears to listen to the news, and said in a loud voice: "In a few days, you will know how good my second brother is, and being able to be a member of our Liu family is a blessing that you have cultivated for eight lifetimes." ”

"Our family is different from other landlords, we have always treated everyone as a human being."

"I'll tell you a few things first, and there will be an ideological and political official to tell you that as long as the people who perform well in our family can not only be fed and clothed, but also have the opportunity to enter the Longxiang camp or the various rooms of the family as cadres......"

"Really?"

"Don't listen to this little rabbit cub bragging, the landlord can have a few good ones."

Jiao Mintong didn't care when he heard the discussion behind Lin An, the system of Liujia Village was very perfect, and naturally someone would come to teach them when they turned around.

At this point in the conversation, he had already registered Lin An's other information, and handed Lin An a wooden card.

"Put this sign away, and when you go back, you have to rely on this to eat and get things."

After doing this, seeing that Lin An's face was still blank, thinking of what he looked like a year ago, Jiao Mintong's sympathy attacked.

"Don't think about it, stay here for a few months, maybe you can still pick up your wife when you turn around, but don't think about running away, you will have to beat you if you are caught."

"Eh, thank you Jiao, brother", Lin An is not an ignorant person, knowing that Jiao Mintong's words are all for his good, he nodded and quickly agreed.

With Jiao Mintong's comfort, Lin Anxin's hesitation was alleviated a lot.

Coming out of the registration place, the sergeants of the Longxiang camp had already lined up in two sparse human walls, directing the crowd to the open space on the side.

Dozens of cauldrons have been erected here, in which fragrant rice porridge and vegetable soup are boiled from unknown ingredients.

Lin An received a bowl of porridge and a bowl of vegetable soup here with his wooden card, which was completely different from the clear soup and low water when the government gave porridge in the past, and it was completely full of thick porridge.

And the vegetable soup is also quite peculiar, there are pieces of yellow things in it that Lin An has never eaten, and the person who heard the meal say what is this called potato?

Lin An tasted it with some apprehension, and found that this potato was unexpectedly delicious, and more importantly, there were two small pieces of chicken in the soup!

It's not vegetable soup, it's broth!

There was a shout of surprise in the crowd, Lin An looked up at the surroundings, and immediately carefully held the two bowls in his arms like a treasure, squatted aside and devoured them.

Now he somewhat believed what Brother Jiao said just now, this Liu family really treats us as human beings!

I don't know if what Brother Jiao said about being able to take his wife over is true, Lin An thought while eating.

After eating here, someone immediately urged them to follow the crowd towards the riverbank south of Pengzhou City.

Twenty or so large ships had already been parked here, and one by one the thieves and captives boarded the ships, and within a few quarters of an hour the fleet of kung fu boats stopped at a small pier, and then went into the riverbank, where there was a large manor.

This manor is the Lujiazhuang stronghold of the Yuanjiao that Liu Jianhou led the Jinyiwei and Long Xiang Camp to destroy.

Now that there are so many people to be resettled, Liu Ximing immediately remembered this place, and after asking He Tianlei, he learned that this manor had already been secretly taken into his pocket by him.

Now that the Pengzhou Prefecture is suspended, wait until his own people take over the state government and then change the house deed, which is just a good place to take in the captives.

And Liu Ximing also has other plans in his heart, after all, there are still some eye-catching in the state city.

Anyway, the entire land near Pengzhou has been cleaned up by itself, so it is better to build a new Liujia Village on this Lujiazhuang.

Lin An and the others were settled, and there were soldiers everywhere to defend here, and even if they wanted to, there was nowhere to escape.

On the second day, there was a state clerk wearing a soap-colored collared shirt and a black scarf to register the households, which made everyone even more unexpected, except for a few people, most of them listened to the arrangements of the people in the manor with peace of mind.

Liu Ximing was busy finishing up the affairs of Pengzhou City, and Yu Yongkai, who was sent out by him, also became a celebrity in Shunqing Mansion.

Since the news of Zhang Xianzhong and Shui Yuanjiao came, the city of Shunqing Mansion can be said to be three shocks a day, not to mention that the two thousand men and horses stationed outside the city by He Duan also set camp and went north the next day, and a group of rich gentry were even more like facing the abyss.

For example, Chen Huang's official gentry and their families all moved from their respective manors to the city, and with the people who came to take refuge from other places, the city of Shunqing was overcrowded for a while.

On August 25, news came from Pengzhou that the guerrilla general He Duan and the hundred household officials Yu Yongkai broke through the Yuan Sect and recovered the city of Pengzhou.

Shunqing Mansion suddenly became joyful, and many people spontaneously walked out of their homes to start celebrating.

However, before everyone could come to their senses, news came that the thief Zhang Xianzhong's department broke through the interception of Governor Wang Weizhang and went straight to Shunqing from Pengzhou.

Fortunately, He guerrilla and Yu Baihu fought bravely, and even intercepted the thieves directly outside the city, and at the critical moment, Hou Dudu's soldiers arrived, and broke the Zhang thief in one fell swoop, and now the Zhang thief has gone around Pengzhou, and may arrive in Shunqing at any time.

All of a sudden, the city became crowded again.

The prefect Zhang Licheng originally wanted to discuss the city defense matters with Liu Jianhou, who got the inspection court, only to learn that Liu Yushi wanted to visit the political affairs of Tongchuan Mansion, and he had gone out of the city to the west an hour ago.

Zhang Licheng and a group of officials, big and small, looked at each other, and they all scolded in their hearts.

But there is no way, Liu Jianhou is not a magistrate, he has no responsibility to defend the land, but Zhang Licheng and others, if they dare to say goodbye, no matter where they flee, they will not be able to escape the fate of abandoning the city.

In desperation, Zhang Licheng had to quickly gather Zhang Gaoxuan and other officials in the city and all the big families in the city.

Those who have money contributed money, and they made powerful contributions, on the one hand, they recruited the families of various prefectures, and on the other hand, they recruited the people in the city, and finally gathered enough more than 6,000 people to fill the scene on the city wall.

However, when Zhang Xianzhong's nearly 20,000 troops appeared on the high ground opposite the Shunqing Chengjiang on the 27th, it still caused a desperate wail in the city.

No one thought that such a small number of people alone could defend the city.

"A ship is coming"

"It's the ship of the Han Yuan Firm"

Zhang Licheng finally mustered up the courage to inspect the city, but suddenly heard the shouts of the people defending the city.

When he heard the words of the Han Yuan firm, Zhang Licheng was in high spirits, after the last economic war, no one in the city of Shunqing Mansion knew that the Han Yuan firm was the Liu family's industry.

Now that the fleet has arrived, is his family's team of family members who are comparable to the official army also coming?

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong's troops on the other side of the river also had a commotion, and before they could react, bursts of white smoke rose on the Jialing River, and the rumbling sound of artillery fire spread along the river to both banks.

Violent explosions continued to sound around and over the head of the army of thieves, and the Liu family's fleet perfectly interpreted Liu Ximing's previous warning to Zhang Xianzhong.

Nearly 500 guns on 20 large ships took turns to fire their own roars, and although only half of the guns could be used for artillery fire at a time due to the direction of the ships, it was still an indelible nightmare for the helpless rogues.

"The rogue has retreated, the rogue has retreated"

The shelling on the river continued, but the earth-shattering cheers rang out at the head of Shunqing City.
