"Boom ......"

The hoofs rolled, the people cried in panic and fled in all directions, the thunderous hoofs getting closer and closer, and finally the horses seemed to be flooded over. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Treading ......"

I don't know how many horses' hooves stepped on the rammed earth floating dust, stirring up a large amount of dust, and the wave of the horse team was like an iron stream rushing, mixed with the countless white gas spewed out by the breath of people and horses, if the wind and rain came suddenly, it gave people a thrilling and unstoppable feeling.

They didn't know how many, and the sound of hooves was like thunder from the sky, and finally it resounded.

In the sound of hooves, it seems that the pavement of the official road will be covered by dust, and then in the dust, there are countless flags, such as "Chuang" and "Luo", and there are "Li", "Yuan", "Wang", "Yang" and other general flags, swaggering blockbusters.

Horsemen, all fierce and fierce, "Chuang", "Li", "Yuan" are mostly blue-clothed horse thieves, and "Yuan", "Wang", "Yang" and other banners are mostly red-clothed horse thieves, but without exception, they are all wearing cloaks, felt hats or turbans.

They are skilled in equestrianism, leaping horses like flying, and the most of them can also be skilled in wild riding, and most of them have reached the third stage of equestrianism of riding and chopping.

Some of the elite horsemen wore cotton armor, carried horse bows, and possibly rode and shoot.

They came in a surge, each riding their horses and galloping, and from time to time they also screamed loudly, and the people on the official road cried and screamed, and some of those who could not dodge were knocked over under the horses like that, and then the soaring horses' hooves stepped over, and the surging horses behind followed suit.

Those who were knocked over, regardless of men, women, old and young, were trampled into a bloody pile of things on the official road.

"The thieves are coming."

"The Rogues Are Coming......"

Countless people cried, the official road was terrified, and many people didn't even have time to pick up pots and pans, so they dragged their children and daughters, and fled desperately under the official road with their families.

The large group of people and horses were still galloping, non-stop, rushing straight through the Baishanyi section, murderous, and running in the direction of Suzhou.

However, in the group of thieves, from time to time, some small groups of rangers chased and killed.

Under the banner of the word "Chuang", next to the flags of "Li" and "Yuan", there was a young, cold command voice:

"The news can't be leaked, the people along the way, all the coercion that can be coerced, all the beheading that can't be coerced, and the donkey ball, not a single one can be let go. Let the horse team continue, take advantage of its unpreparedness, and go straight to Suzhou! ”

The official road was dusty, the ground was shaking violently, at least thousands of horses were surging by, and in the distance, there were large swaths of foot soldiers.

Their bows, arrows, shields, spears, and firearms, although they were not as elite as those horse thieves, had a strong murderous aura on their bodies.

In their ranks, they also carried some artillery, although they were all small wolf machines, and they could shoot a pound of projectiles at most, but they were also artillery.

Then after the footmen, there was a mighty procession of hungry people, driving oxen, mules, carts, horses, and horses, carrying people on their shoulders, and carrying their burdens like a tide.

They looked numb, just staggered along, and from time to time the paths on both sides of the official road, as well as the people who were driven over one after another, with helplessness, became a member of the coercion.

They have no power to resist at all, and life and death are up to them.

On both sides of the rear of the official road, there are many whistling and galloping horse teams, patrolling to prevent people from falling into the grass.

No matter what the reason is, there is only one result for the fugitive, and that is to stumble.

These horse teams also have the task of collecting and coercing the people, such as after the people on this side of Baishanyi escaped, many horse teams chased after them, or killed or threatened.

Soon after, most of the fleeing people were captured and driven into the rear.

There were also people who did not want to be thieves, so they were killed on the spot without mercy.

In front of a small path and barren grass, a man wearing a ragged cotton shirt and a straw rope around his waist looked at the sky blankly, his mouth and nose were constantly bleeding blood, and the swords and spears on his body were repeatedly wounded, and the same blood flowed, and he was not far from death.

It's just that the tenacious vitality makes his body twitch from time to time, and he hasn't broken his last breath.

Not far from the grass next to him, his wife also fell into a pool of blood, half of her neck was split, and she had already died of exhaustion.

But the two were unwilling to be thieves, and they also knew that the result of being coerced was that they were forced to dig trenches and fill ditches during the siege of the city, and finally became a member of the repeated corpses in the ravine, so they desperately fled.

It's just that how can a human leg outrun a horse's leg?

When the two saw the thieves chasing after them, they bravely fought with the six or five horse thieves in order to let their young children escape.

The results speak for themselves, of course.

And their children did not escape from life, only a dozen steps away from him, the man's two children, a man and a woman, two children of seven or eight years old, had been trampled to death by horses, and the boy's brains were trampled out.

The trail was full of blood, mixed with white objects, which was shocking.

The little girl was even more miserable, she was trampled into a heap of flesh and blood, and her internal organs and intestines flowed all over the ground.

The remaining little face still carries great fear and pain.

"Your mother is hairy, if you dare to resist the rebels, you will die!"

The thieves left scolding, the man's eyes were still open, and the miserable cries of his children before they died were especially in his ears, and his eyes slowly flowed bloody tears.

I just want to take my family to live.

He remembered that when he fled, he had just learned the news that the thieves had captured Luyi and Bozhou, but there was still Yongcheng in the middle, why did he suddenly appear in Suzhou?

I knew that I would have fled early with my family.

When he was desperate, the man's heart was still extremely remorseful.

"Cover the thief and kill people, with beans to fill their stomachs, and horses to eat, horses are fat, a day and night travel three hundred miles, if you want to break the far city, then the near city is not attacked, and the far city is broken, the beginning of the army to take the near city. Those who cover far away say that the city of thieves has not yet been broken, and it will not come over, and it is often unprepared; Those who are close are also said to have passed the thieves, but they are not strictly guarded. Therefore, every thief takes advantage of others, and takes two from him, and the plan is also cunning! ”

There is still smoke and dust rolling on the official road, and the rogue teams that take Suzhou and Lingbi do not see the head in front and the tail in the back.

Obviously, there was more than one eastward marching team, and there were also a large number of Liukou horses, going down the whirlpool to take Mengcheng, Huaiyuan, Wuhe and other places.

Everywhere there was wolf smoke, everywhere there were weeping, and the corpses were repeated, lying in the wilderness.

On February 17, the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the combined forces of Li and Luo broke through Xiangcheng, and Wang Qiaonian, the governor of the three sides, died. Trapped in Chenzhou again, took advantage of the victory and returned to Germany, and went down in seven days. Then the troops went out in all directions, and Xiping, Shangcai, Suiping, Luyi, Bozhou, Huoqiu, and Lingbi all fell.

He even crossed the Huai River and captured Xuyi City on the south bank.

In this month, the Qing army captured Songshan on the 18th, and Ningyuan's strong army was completely lost.

There are Tartars outside, there are thieves inside, the Ming Dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, and the wind and rain are fluttering.

……

On the sixth day of February in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Yang He personally organized the spring ploughing ceremony, built a grass factory on the edge of Xin'an Village, and set up the soil tablet of the Emperor and the Queen of Heaven, Yang He was not an atheist, he believed in Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and Sinology, and he believed that there were gods and martyrs in the world.

Otherwise, how to explain that he inexplicably came to the Ming Dynasty?

On that day, not only the ploughing team, but also the villagers poured out of the nest, followed the opera troupe invited from Pizhou City, blowing and beating all the way, elated, carrying the paper-tied spring oxen, plows, etc., throwing rice, wheat and soybeans all the way, and throwing them onto the paper-tied ploughing cattle, hoping for a bumper harvest in the new year.

Turning around along the Zhuangzi, after the paper-tied spring ox was carried to the grass factory, Yang He led the three dogs and three worships, and the incense burned to lay the soil tablet of the emperor and the queen of heaven, made a prayer, and then personally supported the plow, and performed a trial ox ploughing the field, indicating the beginning of spring ploughing.

All the villagers sang in unison: "Autumn ploughing is deep, spring ploughing is shallow." Spring ploughing is like turning cakes, and autumn ploughing is like digging a well. Spring ploughing is one inch deep, and it can be used to top dung. Spring ploughing and spring ploughing are unwilling to be busy, and the face is hungry and yellow after autumn. Plough well and rake well, and grow crops without grass. The crops don't recognize their father and mother, and they work intensively and do more grain......"

Yang He ordered a big meal, and then after this day, Xin'anzhuang began to be nervous about spring plowing and reclamation.

At present, there are more than 500 people in the field cultivation team, divided into two groups, one group takes care of the sorghum land on this side of Xin'anzhuang, 9,600 acres, and it can be harvested in summer.

Looking at the momentum of this crop, it is estimated that there will be about 7,000 stone of income by then.

Then the rest moved to Tunjiao Villa, continued to reclaim the land, built water conservancy, burned wasteland, leveled, drained and washed salt, and transported a large amount of lime to stir, balance the acid and alkali, and kill insects.

The water conservancy team also urgently followed suit, digging ditches to divert water and drainage, watering ponds in the fields, and building culverts to divert water from the polder wall near Lake Whitehorse.

After the 12th, 13th, and 14th years of Chongzhen's extraordinary drought, there is still a lot of rain in the spring of this year, and the amount of water on this side of Baima Lake is enough to irrigate all the newly cultivated fields around it.

The teams should also be in a hurry, because it is almost the middle of May of the lunar calendar, which is the key to rice planting, and then the eighth month of the lunar calendar, before and after the cold dew, is also the best time for winter wheat sowing.

Of course, whether rice can be planted in May also depends on how well the phosphate fertilizer is handled, otherwise, it will be used as a fertile field, and the first year of land reclamation is considered raw land, and the harvest of crops is very touching, and Yang He will not pin his hopes on this side.

At present, he still has channels to buy grain, and he is not so urgent whether the fields are harvested or not.

On the road engineering team, they also continued to build roads, and when the stone was insufficient, they first set up a roadbed, took soil to build a rammed earth road, a road almost four meters wide, plus a drainage ditch, if a team of 500 workers built a rammed earth roadbed, it would take about three or four days.

From Jiaoshanzhuang to Xin'anzhuang, to the market more than 30 miles, it will take more than three months.

It is convenient to build the roadbed, and when the stone is sufficient, then pave the gravel and bluestone slabs.

A bluestone road, the total construction period can be completed in about half a year.

If there is no accident, this road is also one of the few first-class highways under the rule of Yang River.

In the future, the roads will be repaired, and they will basically be secondary roads and gravel roads.

Xin'anzhuang has entered the stage of vigorous development, especially the construction of a large number of buildings, the villagers see in the eyes, happy in their hearts, although according to this frame, the inventory of 100,000 taels of silver, 10,000 stone grain, are put into the basic budget, but the villagers are not worried.

They all believed that Yang Xianggong would solve the problem of money and food in the coming year, just like on the way to escape, everyone saved grain, rice and silver from scratch, and after arriving in Xin'anzhuang, the silver was also tens of thousands of taels, tens of thousands of taels were seized, and the money was spent, Yang Xianggong must have a way.

And Yang Xianggong is not spending money indiscriminately, but a real business, all for the sake of Zhuang Min's better life in the coming year and more convenient travel and life.

No one is born with a penchant for walking on muddy roads, and there are bluestone avenues to walk, so why not? In the future, Xin'an Zhuangzi will also become a paradise and make their homes better, and everyone has nothing to worry about.

To be honest, this generation of villagers is full of gratitude, they flee all the way, crawl out of the pile of dead, have a stutter, and live where they are satisfied.

Most of them have also witnessed the various divine power of Yang He, Yang Xianggong star is down to earth, the image of omnipotence can be said to be unforgettable in the hearts of everyone, the more high-level, the more profound this impression, so at this time Yang He is extremely authoritative, in the Zhuang people can be said to be the same.

The system he set up is also very reasonable, although it includes food, accommodation, and canteen, but it is not the same treatment as lazy and diligent people, there are also hierarchical ladders, and there is a reward and punishment system, so that people can see that they are climbing up - no, it is the way to ascend.

Therefore, at this time, the people of Xin'an Zhuangmin are positive and optimistic, full of vitality.

Everyone is working hard to make their lives better and their homes safer.

……

Xin'anzhuang entered a busy stage of development, and all kinds of agricultural and industrial chores were taken care of, and Yang He personally trained during this time.

Throughout the month of February, he also dragged his soldiers out into the field to practice many times.
