Chapter 60 Hami, No Honey

Zhang Fenggu felt that his eyes were very painful, so he had to close his eyes and rest for a while, and his body was next to the bed, and when he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

His nose had no sense of smell anymore, and Zhang Fenggu swore that he had never seen such a filthy human settlement.

It took six thousand people ten days to clear out the city of Hami to a rough appearance.

The garbage and shacks were demolished, but the strong stench could not be eliminated in any way.

It was only recently that Zhang Fenggu heard from the warriors of Qingxianggu that the Uighurs had buried a large number of corpses under the city of Hami......

The soil is very thin, and the smell of rotting corpses permeates the city under the steaming of the sun.

Under these circumstances, it would take at least two years for Hami City to fully return to its former state, waiting for the corpses in the ground to completely decompose and turn into dirt.

Zhang Fenggu felt that after half a month of sleepless work, his medical skills had improved a lot.

In the past half month, Zhang Fenggu vowed that the cases he had seen far exceeded the combined medical practice of his father and uncle in their lifetimes.

Just the disease of skin ulceration, he sorted out no less than thirty kinds.

He remembered the first time he entered the city, when he was surrounded by people with all kinds of strange diseases, and for a long time, he thought that he was in hell.

Fortunately, he is a doctor, and he quickly adapts to all this, and when he returns to his room every day tired like an old dog, he will not even have time to think about anything else in his head, and he will be taken to sleep by the Sandman.

Today, Zhang Fenggu plans to give himself a half-day vacation to take a good look at the city, which the Uighurs call a place of refuge.

There are not many Uighurs in Hami today, and I heard that the king is going to hand over the city to the Han people from the Great Snow Mountain.

Because of the food, each of these Han Chinese hired seven or eight Uighurs to help them with their work, so many Han Chinese who did not have to farm would move into the city of Hami.

Of course, such preferential treatment was conditional, and the Hami nation needed their maturing crops to feed the millions of Uighurs.

Squalor was nothing to the Uighurs. Hami's current appearance is similar to where they used to live, they built a random shed and then the whole family slept together.

Without cattle and sheep and pastures, the Uighurs were no different from dead, and they had nothing to do with it, not knowing how long they would live.

To the surprise of the Uighurs, the king of Hami offered to feed them.

At the outset, none of the terrified Uighurs dared to enter the huge straw hut to receive food.

The aristocracy has never been a good person, and the nobility represents robbery and plunder, which is what they have always known.

The tribal leaders may take care of their own people, and this care is also premised on the people becoming their slaves.

To expect a country formed by horse thieves to understand what it means to be a common people is too much to expect from them.

The only meaning of the existence of the people to them is that there is someone who can help them to get something for nothing.

A group of hungry orphans smelled the food, so they went into the hut with pity on the rest of the Uighurs, and watched each of them get a large bowl of food, and watched them come out of the hut after eating the food, and saw that they were not poisoned alive......

So, all the people rushed into the shed......

More than 670 people were killed and injured by stampeding!

Zhang Fenggu watched firsthand how these Uighurs learned the rules.

At the beginning, those Great Song Xu officials asked them to line up and marry cooks one by one to fill the rice.

For the Uighurs who could not understand the Song dialect, this was simply playing the harp to the ox.

It wasn't until those fierce warriors beat the most scorching and squeezing those who grabbed the most and squeezed the fiercest with sticks, chains, and whips without a head or face that they restrained a little.

When they saw that the cauldron was running out of food, the riots began again, and this time, after a large line of spears poked out of the cook, and the bleeding corpses were picked out of the crowd one after another, the Uighurs naturally learned to line up.

I heard that the food that day was slightly red......

Zhang Fenggu slowly wandered along the city wall, and outside the rammed earth wall, forty or fifty thousand people were nervously building a taller and more majestic stone city wall.

The stones outside were piled up, and even so, there was still a steady stream of stones being transported by horse-drawn carts and ox-carts from the Tien Shan Mountains not far away.

The walls were built almost for a week, and there were numerous wooden shelves towering over the sides of the walls, and whenever the Uighurs under the shelves tied the boulder with a rope, seven or eight Uighurs dragged another rope and easily placed the boulder where it was supposed to be.

Zhang Fenggu estimated that in a month at most, these outer city walls, which had been divided into countless sections, would all be closed, and at that time, a huge city would appear.

He vaguely heard that in the future, Qingxiang City will be used as an imperial city, and Hami City will become a place where the prime minister and civil and military officials give orders.

Such an arrangement is really strange, the emperor and the prime minister are not in the same place, isn't the king afraid of something happening?

There was a thunderous sound on the Tianshan Mountain, Zhang Fenggu was already surprised by this loud noise, it is said that this kind of dry thunder can open the mountain and split stones, the reason why there are so many stones outside Hami City, all of them are split by these dry thunder.

He really wanted to see what these dry thunders looked like, why he would listen to the king's order to split mountains and open stones, but he was blocked back by the warriors of Qingxiang Valley.

It is said that while the gods are working, mortals cannot stand by.

Even the gods were very suspicious of the king, but this did not last long.

After the living Buddha from the Daleiyin Monastery chanted at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, some Uighurs began to devout their belief in the Buddha.

The Uighur girl is actually very beautiful, especially when her little face is washed.

A pair of big watery eyes, long eyebrows, and two dimples on his face when he smiles.

It's the same with boys, except that their skin is a little darker, and they also look pleased.

These unwanted children are the last inhabitants of Hami.

Without adults and their food, these dying orphans regained their innocence after a few days of eating.

These children are about to be sent to Qingxiang City, and the reason why they were not sent over as soon as possible is that Zhang Fenggu needs to take a good look at whether these children have any serious diseases.

A little girl with big eyes always follows Zhang Fenggu, her legs are a little lame, and she is only five years old at most.

Zhang Fenggu had already helped this child see that her leg was trampled on and broken, and she didn't have a good bone, so she became lame.

Zhang Fenggu is going to wait for the child's body to recover a little better, then break her leg from the affected area again and re-bone her, otherwise the child will be a cripple for the rest of his life.

Zhang Fenggu, who had walked a long way, felt a little tired, so he sat on the earthen city wall, took out a piece of naan and began to eat, and the little girl naturally sat beside him, but did not open her mouth to beg for food.

Zhang Fenggu helplessly nodded on the bridge of the little girl's nose and said, "Thief spirit, thief girl." ”

After speaking, he took out a small bag from his bosom, took out a strip of air-dried meat, and slapped it in the child's thin little hand.

Nowadays, this air-dried meat is a rare thing, only in the army will distribute this thing, Zhang Fenggu's official position is in the army, so he will have jerky, but there are not many of them, they can only be used to satisfy hunger, not as food.

Although the little girl's little teeth are small, she bites the jerky but is very powerful, and the two people, one big and one small, sit on the city wall like this, watching the sunset that is about to set on the horizon, forming a very beautiful picture.

The Uighurs were about to call a day, and I don't know who sang the Uighur tune, but Zhang Fenggu did not understand the Turkic language, but remembered that the song seemed to be very good, and the song was melodious, tactful, and desolate, which almost brought tears to people's eyes.

Ouyang Xiu, who was in Hami City, also heard the singing, stopped the brush in his hand, opened the window, looked at the twilight sky, and said to himself: "Heaven? You need to create it yourself! ”

After sighing for a while, he closed the window, called his assistant Zhou Yan, pointed to the document on the table, and said: "The grain support of Hami City should be given until the end of August, and the supply of stone must keep up, I have already dispatched 3,000 cattle from Qingxiang City to you, as for the cart, you need to take local materials, in any case, at the beginning of August, the outer walls of Hami City must be closed, and the four city gates must also be built."

At the end of August, these people will have to leave Hami and rush to a different place to get food, you should know the severity. ”

Zhou Yan bowed and said, "After the people evacuate, who will take over Hami City?" ”

Ouyang Xiu shook his head and said: "I don't know for the time being, the king has not yet issued a clear edict, but in the old man's opinion, the possibility of Han people staying in Hami City is the highest." “

Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Is the king cultivating the rich population of my Hami Qingxiang Country?" Those Han people under the Great Snow Mountain, this time they are blessed, it takes one or two generations for others to become landlords, and they are just because of an edict! ”

Ouyang Xiu looked at Zhou Yan and frowned, "There's nothing wrong with this. ”

"Xia Guan knows that a dynasty must always have its own subjects, and the king has already completed the domination of the hearts of the people in Qingxiang City, and those people from my Great Song Dynasty are the natural subjects of the king, and it is indeed necessary to gather the hearts of the Han people now.

The king probably wanted to come step by step, and after the hearts of the Han people were all taken back, the next step was probably to take soft measures against these Uighurs.

Unexpectedly, the king seems to be young, but he does things step by step and refuses to take a step ahead! ”

Ouyang Xiu was very pleased that his subordinates had such an insight, patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder and said, "After two more years of grinding, I will have the talent to return to the Great Song Dynasty as a prefect." (To be continued.) )
