Chapter 1276: The Village of Loyalty and Bravery

Kill and kill!

Again, kill!

Ben Kuan's categorical words were sonorous and powerful, but Jiang Hui and Bao An had a sour nose and almost shed tears. There is no fault, and there is great merit!

"Someone, bring me something." Ben Kuan waved his hand, and the two government officials behind him immediately carried something covered with red silk.

"Two, your village guards the border and fights for the country, and it is for loyalty. Don't panic when you encounter the enemy, kill countless enemies, and kill the enemy general on the spot, it is for bravery, from today onwards, this village will be renamed Zhongyong Village! Stretching out his hand, he tore off the red silk, and the four gilded characters of the Village of Loyalty and Courage burned everyone's eyes slightly.

"The county government will build a memorial arch outside your village after the war, and this plaque can be hung on it to pass on to future generations. Ben Kuan raised his voice and said hard.

Jiang Hui's body bowed deeply, his face turned red, and he almost used all his strength to roar loudly: "The village of loyalty and bravery, loyal to the Ming Dynasty for generations, for the country's minions!" ”

Bao An hurriedly stepped forward, and Jiang Hui took the plaque one left and one right, and the village chiefs in the surrounding villages and the military attaches assigned to the village all showed envy on their faces.

The county government and county guard personally named a village, which was the first case in Taoyuan County, and this one thing alone was enough to make Zhongyong Village steadily become the head of all villages in the future.

"Zhongyong Village defended the land for the country this time, fought endlessly, and suffered great losses." Ben Kuan continued: "It should be rewarded heavily, and the county guard has already made a concession to His Majesty, asking for the exemption of all the villagers of Zhongyong Village from paying taxes on Yongye Tianyong. ”

Boom, the surrounding village representatives who were already envious were unable to express their emotions in words at this time, Taoyuan County Guard because of the vast land and sparsely populated people, immigrated here, but was lenient when granting land, each person has thirty acres of Yongye field, although the peasant tax in the Ming Dynasty is already quite low compared to Qi Chu, but in a year, the tax of thirty acres of land is also a lot of money! What's more, these fields can be passed on to their children and grandchildren, who will continue to enjoy this benefit.

"For those who died in the war for the country, each person will receive a pension of one hundred taels of silver, and if there are children in the family who have not grown up, the county government will pay to raise the children of these people until they are sixteen years old. A pension of fifty taels of silver for the disabled. In addition, if there is a winner of this slash, the reward will be calculated separately. ”

"Thank you, for your generous reward!" Jiang Hui gratefully led the surviving villagers of Zhongyong Village to kneel down and thank him. Although the village paid a lot in this battle, the harvest was also unexpectedly rich. I can't even dream of it.

"You deserve it, get up!" Ben Kuan picked up Jiang Hui and said to the representatives of the surrounding villages who were also excited: "My Taoyuan County is a border county, and the heart of Qi people will not die, and I have repeatedly poisoned my border villages, as long as every village fights to the end like Zhongyong Village, I can make Qi people look at my Taoyuan and be afraid, and tremble when I listen to my Taoyuan, as long as you can make meritorious contributions, the county government, the imperial court, and Your Majesty will definitely be rewarded." ”

"Fight for the country, fight for the country, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" In Zhongyong Village, the officers and soldiers, and the villagers roared in unison.

Wang Yun looked at Ben Kuan with admiration, the county guard skillfully took advantage of this sudden incident and raised the mood of the people of the entire county government to the highest point at once. first focused on the Qi people's repeated border harassment of them, and then rewarded villages like Jiang Hui heavily, so that these border villagers immediately plucked up the desire to follow suit.

This hand is really enough to learn by yourself. It can be said that when the news of Zhongyong Village spreads, the fighting spirit of the entire Taoyuan County will immediately rise to a terrifying height. He knew very well the composition of the people of Taoyuan County, almost one-third were the original Qin people, the other one-third were the barbarians of the year, and the last third were the surviving original Taoyuan County people, the first two were originally extremely aggressive. With this example, if the Qi people really want to commit a crime this time, they are afraid that in addition to the frontal battlefield of the Ming army, they will also have to face the endless attacks of these people.

Ben Kuan is very satisfied with the atmosphere he has created, the enemy is in front of him, and he can only order the prohibition and exert his strength in one place. Seeing that Jiang Hui and Bao An were still carrying the big plaque, they couldn't help but smile and said: "Find a place to store him first, and then hang him out after this battle!" ”

"Yes, my lord, the villain will go and hang him in the house where the injured are housed first, and if you see the adult's ink treasure and the village of loyalty, these people will definitely recover soon." Jiang Hui nodded repeatedly.

"This is not my Mobao, I can't write such good words." Ben Kuan smiled.

"Ah, didn't you write it by the county keeper?" Jiang Hui couldn't help but show a little disappointment.

Looking at Jiang Hui's appearance, Ben Kuan laughed loudly: "Your village is lucky, the person who wrote this word, but it is a great name, my Ming Dynasty's Ministry of Rites Shangshu Xiao Lao, and other idlers want to ask him for an old man's ink treasure is like a difficulty, this time, it was his old man who just came to Taoyuan to inspect the running of the school, and heard about your affairs, so he took the pen and completed these four big characters in one go." Are you still not satisfied? Jiang Hui, let me tell you, after the archway is completed, it is also necessary to extend these four words, this old man's ink treasure, you can pass on it to future generations as the treasure of the village! ”

Jiang Hui was a little stupid, he didn't know the status of the old man Xiao of the Ministry of Rites among the scholars, but he still knew that the book of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty must be older than the official of the county guard, didn't he see the county guard master and his old man? Immediately nodded again and again, and Bao An and Bao An cautiously carried the plaque to the house.

Looking at their backs, Wang Yun said enviously: "Mr. Xiao rarely writes big characters and inscriptions, this time he came to Taoyuan, I actually went to ask for words, and was scolded back by the old man." ”

Ben Kuan smiled: "I have long known the temper of this old man, and I don't want to ask for this advice at all." ”

"This old man is really desperate now, Taoyuan County is now very dangerous, and he actually has to go to the countryside to inspect the township school and the village school."

"Can you not be desperate? Didn't you see that when Boss Wang died, the Son of Heaven personally supported the coffin? Mr. Xiao is running for this. He was already in his seventies, and there was nothing more to ask for, only this posthumous name. ”

"The Son of Heaven is really powerful!" Wang Yun sighed: "The honor of the Son of Heaven to help the coffin and send the soul made Mr. Xiao devote all his enthusiasm and connections to running the school. ”

"Compared with the Son of Heaven supporting the coffin and sending the soul, what Old Master Xiao will really pass on to future generations is that he has devoted himself to the cause of reading and reading in every village over the years." Ben Kuan said, "I think Elder Xiao will understand in the future, of course, maybe he understands now." ”

"The sound of books in every village and the literacy of every family is really a great goal." Wang Yun said: "Your Majesty's heart is really big. ”

"Without a big heart, how can it lead us to where we are now and go further?" Ben Kuan smiled and patted Wang Yun and said, "General Wang, let's encourage each other!" ”

"Encouragement!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, both of them were related.

There was a sudden sound of horses' hooves on the road outside the village, and a small group of cavalry came at a gallop, seeing the fluttering flag, Wang Yun smiled and said, "Li Xiaoya is here." ”

Li Xiaoya, the commander of the second pure cavalry battalion of the Ming Dynasty, was deployed to Wuling in the Wuling Theater after becoming an army, and now has been stationed in the Changzhu area.

Compared with Yu Chao, Li Xiaoya is younger, and his age in his twenties makes him particularly prominent among the Ming generals. However, the horse monkey rose up, more because he was Qin Feng's personal guard commander and had a close relationship, but when he ascended, he relied on solid combat exploits and fought hard with a knife and a gun. The child born to the handmaid of the Li family in Yuejing City has now become the existence that the Li family looks up to.

Before anyone arrived, laughter was already heard.

"Ben Junshou, General Wang, where is the guy who shot the royal family of Qi with a crossbow, let me take a look, I'm in Changzhu, I went out every now and then to slip away, but I just killed a general of Qi State, he can actually kill such a big man, haha, this luck is against the sky, let me meet him, touch his luck, maybe next time I can kill Xian Bisong." When the words landed, the person had already arrived, turned over and fell off the horse, stood in front of the two, and clasped his fists with both hands, "Li Xiaoya has seen Ben Junshou, General Wang." ”

"General Li is still so hot." Wang Yun glanced at the more than 100 cavalry who stopped more than a dozen steps away from them, his face was a little shocked, he saw the speed at which they were running just now, but he stopped when he said stop, and he could stop so neatly, it was not something that ordinary people could do, this Li Xiaoya was almost half of his age, but he had the same status as himself, which was really not fortunate.

"We'll see you later!" Ben Kuan smiled and said: "General Li has also arrived, even if we are all alive, General Wu Ling's reply may take a few days, but we must prepare first, now that we have gathered, we should discuss those preparations first, Wu Zhengting's side has already given positive information, and the Qi people are indeed going to call." This time I stabbed the hornet's nest, and Xian Bisong did a fight, so it's hard to explain! ”

"I'm looking forward to them coming!" Li Xiaoya raised her hand and threw the whip to a cavalryman behind her, and said with a smile: "I always sneak around like a thief, I'm tired of it, and I fight with them in the open, so that they don't dare to look at us anymore." ”
