Section 484 Pain and trouble
The scale of nearly 2,000 Qingfeng Zhai men chasing and killing completely defeated the Peach Blossom Mountain thieves, who resisted and fought back, and fled in defeat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After chasing for four or five miles, Hua Rong stopped the army and shouted: "Zhu Long Zhu Biao listen, you are full of blood, full of sins, and you deserve to die dozens of times for your crimes." However, the Great Song Dynasty was afraid that there would be a great disaster of alien invasion in the near future. It is not easy for your brother to practice martial arts, you have a skill to use, and you may be able to contribute to the protection of the family and the family in the future. If you dare to come and harm my Qingfeng Town again, you will not be spared. ā
When Wang Dengbang heard this, his heart couldn't help but move: I said that Hua Rong seemed to be deliberately letting us go without killing the killer, and that was indeed the case. Otherwise, with his divine shooting ability, how could he only shoot Zhu Sanbiaozi's arm, Zhu Long, Hua Rong didn't even shoot an arrow. I was able to slip through the terrible rush of the cavalry, and it was deliberate.
And Zhu Long, especially Zhu Biao, did not thank Hua Rong's subordinates for their mercy when they heard this, but felt more and more ashamed and resentful, gritted their teeth and swore that they would take revenge and come back. They do not have the overall concept of honor and disgrace of the Han people in their hearts, if the alien race really kills, the situation is not good, the Zhu family and many Han landlords are sure to know the times and rely on their strength to betray the Great Song Dynasty and seek glory and wealth.
The two brave nephews led the strong generals to go out to fight the small Qingfeng Village but returned with a miserable defeat, not only lost hundreds of men and horses, but also were injured and lost their combat effectiveness for a while.
I didn't expect this Hua Rong to be so powerful.
He listened to his nephew's account of the battle, but he was conceited and brave, but he didn't have the confidence to win Huarong. Moreover, Hua Rong's archery is even more terrifying. This kind of strong enemy, if there is only one person, cannot be easily provoked.
You know, no matter how general you are, you are most afraid of encountering soul hooking arrows. The Condor Shooter is the most difficult to guard against, and whoever targets him will most likely die.
Zhu Biao suffered a big loss, lost face in front of Wang Dengbang, and the more he thought about it, the more resentful Hua Rong became. But even his uncle, who had the courage of ten thousand people, did not dare to go to Qingfeng Town to seek revenge easily, and he did not dare to take risks again.
After Zhu Biao recovered from his injuries, he specially led the cottage cavalry to raid the villages around Qingfeng Town.
What he bullied was that Hua Rong was only one strong, and Hua Rong couldn't distinguish manpower, not only to defend Qingfeng Village, but also to intercept him everywhere.
Large-scale robbers may not understand the principle of sustainable development, but they know what to do, looting does not kill indiscriminately, burn indiscriminately, exhaust the water and fish, always do not take the knife lightly, so that the big families can endure this level of plundering, so that they can not be ruthless to abandon the farms and farms to flee to continue to manage the fields and save meat, nor rob the ordinary people so that they have no way to live and have to flee without anyone to farm the land to supply food, so as to facilitate the next harvest.
But Zhu Biao grabbed the surroundings of Qingfeng Town ruthlessly.
Anyway, this is the main eating place of the Qingfeng Three Tigers, not Peach Blossom Mountain.
Hua Rong really provoked and harmed him so much, although he hated him, he was helpless.
Zhu Biao thought he had a plan, so he was in a better mood, and he was more and more happy, but he didn't know that this helped Hua Rong.
Among the people around Breeze Town,
When the landlord bully heard the news, he no longer dared to stay in the village, nor could he move to the county seat, and the county seat was not safe, and was broken by the ferocious Zhu family. At this time, it is not necessary to be able to keep the village and recruit enough people to cultivate in time, far away from Zhuangzi, the fields are designated to be yellow, and there is so much land in white, and the income is cut off, and the door is full of the northwest wind.
The only choice can only be to go to Qingfeng Village, where the thieves can't help it, so that it can also take into account safety and profit, which is the trouble point.
The ruffians will not leave their homes and possessions untouched, waiting to be plundered by robbers and clean.
Serious ordinary people can't withstand the scourge of robbers, and they are even more afraid of robbers, but they have to farm to survive and can't leave the land of birth.
So they all lived in Qingfeng Village.
Hua Rong took the opportunity to take away all kinds of landlords and ordinary people, regardless of the good-natured few landlords or ordinary people, and all those worthy of emigrating, were taken away by various means, and in the end it was only the landlords, bullies, people, and cattle and horses, and there were nearly 2,000 households in the north and south villages.
He has a large number of people and fields to support the army and war horses of the village in disguise, and his power is no less than that of ordinary county governance, and there are many ownerless fields to attract outsiders, and he has also virtually built an immigration channel for this piece of Qingzhou, and partially realized Zhao Yue's Qingzhou plan.
Subsequently, the two families of Hua Rong and Zhang Laoguan lived a good life of almost independent autonomy, controlling one side, asking for soldiers, money, and food.
It's a pity that the two families who are as harmonious as a family do not have the fate to be together happily for a long time.
In the spring of this year, Mr. Zhang, who had always been in good health and in better spirits, suddenly fell ill and went at night before he could find a doctor.
His old wife also fell ill, and refused to take medicine and eat, and soon died, and before he died, he said to Hua Rong and his wife, who were sad and anxious: "My lord is stubborn, he can't make friends, and he has no friends. I'm afraid he'll be lonely underground, so I'm going down to accompany him. ā
Seeing the old girl who was crying so much that she didn't know much about personnel, the old lady sighed and said: "This child was born in my family, and my husband and wife are old, it is really difficult for her to live happily and grow up, which is her misfortune." Luckily, the old man came here and met you and his wife. ā
"The old man treated the general and his wife like daughters-in-law during his lifetime, and in his old life, even my unfortunate own son had never been so caring, tolerant and pampered by him during his lifetime. The lord has changed his temperament for you, and he has become a surprise to me who has known him too well all my life.
Both of you are good boys, too, and deserve it.
The old body is leaving, and I can't take care of this poor girl anymore, I hope she can be adopted by your husband and wife, and take care of her on my behalf. I know you have the ability and will take care of her, and I am very relieved to die. ā
Hua Rong's heart ached, although the hero had tears and did not flick, he had long expected that the old lady would not be cured and would definitely have the intention of entrusting the little girl to his husband and wife, and he and his wife had already prepared in their hearts, but they still couldn't help but cry.
He didn't understand, Zhang Guqing was such an upright and responsible good person, good official and good minister, although he was corrupt and stupid, he was respectable and lovely, and he had no bad habits, why he was so short and unblessed, while great evil traitors like Cai Jing and others could enjoy wealth and glory as a turtle.
He originally planned to forcibly take this family away and go overseas when he left this year, and he was confident that the old official would be able to work for another ten years in the judicial supervision system of the new empire, and then retire and spend the rest of his life with his wife leisurely and contentedly, who knows......
Although he was deeply influenced by Zhao Yue's new ideas and concepts, he was eventually influenced by the traditional consciousness and habits of the Great Song Dynasty.
It is up to men to govern the country; Farming is mainly based on men; Defending the family and defending the country is a man's business. How can women play a role in society and national affairs compared with men? Equal status, on a par, is it really that reasonable?
But at this moment, Hua Rong only felt so affectionate and generous to the old lady Zhang, not only did he love each other but also sacrificed his life, he also recognized the equality of men and women, and there was no more muttering in his heart. Such an old lady deserves everyone's respect, why can't she be compared to a man?
It was only at this moment that Hua Rong truly understood why Zhao Yue despised and resolutely resisted the combination of Confucianism and politics.
That kind of combination has completely changed morality and politics, made flashy, cowardly, shameless, soft-boned, hypocrites and traitors everywhere, and it is difficult to find a few officials with true integrity, but they are rigid, foolish, and loyal to a decadent dynasty that should be destroyed, and nerds who do not know how to change to safeguard the true national righteousness.
The old official is stubborn and loyal, he doesn't dare to tell the truth to the old official, and he can't persuade the old official to go to the Cangzhao Empire to work and live easily, if not, I believe that the old official will not be hopeless, just nest here with the encounter, in fact, he is not really happy to go so early.
He knelt in front of the old lady's bed, held the old lady's trembling and weak hand, and choked up: "Please rest assured, old lady." From now on, the only child between you and Master Zhang is my Huarong's own sister. Hua Rong has a breath, and he will never wronged her. ā
Hua Gongren Cui Shi cried so much that he couldn't cry.
She hugged the little girl and vowed to take care of her little sister by her side, so that she could grow up happily and be virtuous, marry a good husband, and be happy and healthy all her life. In the past, she may not have this confidence, but with Cangzhao behind her, she dares to promise.
The old lady smiled, her expression showed no doubt of trust, complete relief, and struggled to explain: "The old man is honest and honest as an official, and his life and death are worthy of heaven and earth, but he has not brought benefits to his relatives in his hometown, and he has been despised and cursed as a fool with no human feelings. There are still many relatives in my hometown, but I don't want to welcome my lord home, so I don't have to die and return to my ancestral grave. ā
"The old man was poor when he was young, his life was miserable, and he grew up and became an official, and he was really happy for a day, and he only lived a few years of really comfortable life in this Xiaoao Mountain. This may be a blessed place for the lord. After I die, please ask General Hua to bury the old man and me in Xiaoao Mountain, don't bury it thickly, just bury me and the old man, and bury it together (just fine)"
The old lady reluctantly looked at Hua Rong and his wife and the little girl, and the light in her eyes suddenly dissipated, and she passed away for a long time.
Hua Rong's tears fell like rain, and he buried the ordinary old couple who were too touched by him with the gift of the son, and set up a tomb in the beautiful place of the beautiful Lingxiu on the sunny slope of Xiaoao Mountain. Mrs. Cui took good care of and comforted Miss Zhang, who was only seven years old, just as she was as serious and thoughtful and patient as she took care of her sister-in-law Hua Xiaomei.
Later, Zhengzhi Zhai had a difficult birth. It was Hua Rong who was in charge of Qingfeng Village alone. But suddenly, the new knowledge village was quickly settled.
It turned out that because of the important location of Qingfeng Village, and the meritorious work of resisting thieves and protecting the people, or perhaps for other reasons, the village was suddenly upgraded. Zhizhai became from the eighth grade, and Hua Rong was finally automatically upgraded, from the lowest from the ninth grade to the ridiculous Zhengjiupin Zhongyilang.
Don't underestimate Zhizhai's promotion from the ninth grade to the small half-level promotion from the eighth grade, which means that Zhizhai is qualified to be the magistrate of the county and become a real parent official.
It is very difficult to cross the threshold of changing from a local subordinate official to a full-time official, even at the most basic county level. I don't know how many officials like Da Song County Cheng have struggled all their lives, and they have not stepped forward, and they have been turned from deputy to regular.
The vacancy in Qingfeng Village suddenly changed from a stinky **** that officials and scholars were afraid of, and it suddenly became fragrant, especially for people who couldn't pass the Jinshi exam and didn't have the gift of Meng Yin to become an official. A rich son named Liu Gao in Fucheng spent money to buy off the prefect.
Spending a huge amount of money to get Qingfeng Zhai Zhizhai is an absolutely cost-effective deal for Liu Gao.
The village is said to be too dangerous under the nose of the robbers, in fact, there are only two or three thousand soldiers who can fight, more than the ordinary soldiers in small states, and they have never been captured by bandits, and they are safer than the county seats, and there are a large number of landlords and old wealth gathered in the village, and having food means that there is a lot of money to be fished, as long as you shout: prevent thieves, those who have money to pay, and those who have a strong force. Still worried about the oil and water?
What's more, there is a population of ordinary people comparable to the number of households in a county to be used and looted.
After fishing in Qingfeng Village, or the situation is not good, try to transfer from the eight-rank official position with mixed up, leave the dangerous Qingfeng Village, find a good place to be a county magistrate, and embark on a serious career of eight hundred, this life will have a bright future.
Liu Gao calculated clearly.
He was afraid of death, so he brought two coaches who had been raised for many years and many thugs to protect him to take office, and in order to seize power from Hua Rong, he controlled the fate of the village so that it was convenient to raid, and he also sought a deputy governor of the village for the reliable head of the sect who was more capable and had some relatives, and was also in charge of the military. For the sake of money, the prefect Murong Yande really set up two military deputy governors under the pretext of the needs of the special situation.
Liu Gao is cunning, and he has heard that the thieves dare not commit Qingfeng Village, which is the reason why Hua Rong is very capable.
This guy wants to make good use of Hua Rong to help him sit in Zhizhai to complete his career, but he is afraid that he will not be familiar with the situation just now, and everything needs Hua Rong's cooperation and support, so he will play tricks, seek truth and go to fame, and not show the documents of the deputy Zhizhai first, so as not to anger Hua Rong.
I went, the first thing, and the most concerned thing, was to ask Hua Rong to hand over the money, food, weapons and equipment that should be managed by Zhengzhi Zhai. As a result, although Hua Rong didn't know that there was an additional deputy governor of the division of military power at that time, he disdained to listen to Liu Gao's greeting and refused to pay.
Not to mention that Hua Rong has another backer and future, if he is leaving, even the prefect and even the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty can not be birds, just with his temperament, he is not afraid of Liu Gao, a straw bag villain who can only be an official and harm the people to make money, how can he listen to the rules of the court system to seize power.
Liu Gao really didn't have a rut, but he was not annoyed on his face, and made another move.
The government specially approved Qingfeng Village can be equipped with 800 soldiers to resist the right of robbers and new power to use, Beizhai does not want to spend Rong training and experience the fight is finally a bit of a kind of elm pimple soldiers, in Beizhai will be those who know the times and actively respect his landlords and bullies and actively take refuge in his clever and brave people recruited 500 soldiers, only 300 places were left for Huarong's Nanzhai, seize power first to seize the military power.
Hua Rong scoffed at this childish trick that was easy to use in a peaceful environment, and insisted on concentrating the landlords and bullies who must take refuge in Zhengzhi Village in Beizhai, and all the people left in this village were trained and detained so that they did not dare to disobey him, just to prevent the arrival of this day.
Qingfeng Village is actually engaged in all the people are soldiers, and what is out of the village can play any role. Young and strong, if you have a weapon, you are a soldier. The number of households in Nanzhai is several times that of Beizhai, so what if you have 500 regular soldiers?
Hua Rong happily allocated 500 knives, guns, sticks and corresponding military uniforms and armor to the weapons needed by Beizhai, and the vast majority of the swords and armor were kept, and bows and arrows were not given at all, on the grounds that the residents of Beizhai were slippery and not gullible, and the military weapons related to the life and death of Manzhai should not be given lightly.
