Section 661 Resettlement of displaced persons
The fifth volume destroys the barbarians and sweeps the world
When the news came back to the Governor's Mansion of Fujian and Guangdong, Qin Haoming just told them to stand by, but he didn't say anything else.
The Dutch are not so easy to deal with, if Zheng Zhilong is not pulled, the developing Dingnan Army and Navy will inevitably suffer too much loss, so it is better to be safe.
Moreover, in recent days, his attention has been on family.
Because, he is about to become a father.
Outside the window, the rain fell like a curtain, and the sky was as dark as twilight.
But at this moment, the Governor's Mansion of Fujian and Guangdong is brightly lit, like daylight.
Outside the flowers, the water is impassable, and Qi Wanru, who has been pregnant for ten months, is finally going to give birth.
Countless maids shuttled inside and out, all with anxiety and eagerness on their faces.
As soon as the maid ran into the inner room with the white smoke of hot water, another maid ran out of the outhouse with a basin full of blood.
When the door was opened and closed, heart-rending screams could be heard, and occasionally hoarse moans of exhaustion.
Outside the house, Qin Haoming was anxiously pacing back and forth, wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead indiscriminately, and once the door opened, he couldn't help but look up once.
As long as he saw the maid holding the blood and water out, his heart couldn't help but sink a little more, and he couldn't wait to share this heart-piercing pain with his wife.
After a long time, there was a baby's crisp and pleasant laughter in the bedroom, and it took a long time for everyone to come back to their senses, Qin Haoming rubbed his fists and trembled, and hurriedly went straight to the inner bed.
Took the baby in the crook of the midwife's shriveled arm, the boy in the vermilion brocade, and the pink face that could be broken by blowing.
The newborn baby is actually a bit ugly, but Qin Haoming doesn't feel it at all, only the joy of being a first-time father.
Liu Ru is about to give birth next month, and he will also welcome his second child.
With the birth of the child, Qin Haoming finally completely integrated into the Ming Dynasty.
The next day, the sky cleared, and outside the city of Fuzhou, Huang Zongxi led a team of people to welcome the first batch of displaced people in the northwest.
This was the agreement between Qin Haoming and Sun Chuanting, to move to other defense areas to capture the people of the thieves and Fuzhou, and reduce the pressure on the northwest.
Thousands of civilians, escorted by soldiers, slowly approached the vast camp.
The old man's white hair was messy, the woman was choked and sobbed, the child's hiss cracked his lungs, and the man's nose was blue and his face was swollen.
Huang Zongxi stepped forward and asked in a loud voice: "Who is the leader, come out and answer!" ”
A general stepped forward and bowed and said: "The villain Lu Delong is a hundred households in the Danfeng Guard Station in Shaanxi, these are all chaotic people who participated in the rebellion, and the villain was ordered to be sent to the barracks." ”
Huang Zongxi said with a smile: "Your hands and feet are fast, and you are the first to arrive."
Let the rioters form a household formation, register separately at the table, and then correspond to the number of people, and you can return to your life with the receipt. ”
Lu Delong said with a smile: "Thank you Shangguan for your advice, the villain will arrange it." ”
Waiting for Lu Delong to drive the people to disperse from house to house and register behind the rows of tables, Huang Zongxi looked at the black crowd and asked with a smile: "How many chaotic people are there?" ”
Lu Delong smiled and said: "There are about a dozen of them, which is five thousand people." ”
Huang Zongxi nodded and said nothing.
He is now in charge of the resettlement of displaced people, which is also his first position.
At this time, the registration of displaced people began, and they were all lined up.
A clerk behind the desk asked, "Where is the people?" ”
"The villain is from Chenjiazhuang."
"What's your name?"
"Back to the old man, the villain's name is Li Erniu."
"How many people are in the family, who are they?"
"This is the villain's mother-in-law, this is the villain's eldest son, this is the villain's second son, this is the villain's daughter, this is the villain's grandson."
After the person registered. He took out a wooden card, wrote his name on it, handed it to Li Erniu, and said, "Don't lose this card."
Go in, you traitors are in good despair. ”
The registration was quickly completed with sufficient staff.
Five thousand people entered the camp in fear, looking around from time to time, but it was empty, as if they were the first people to enter the camp.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a gangster, murderous man led a dozen or so soldiers with all the armor to come over.
Although it is a casual walk, it has the momentum of a strong army in a hundred battles.
The man at the head stood before them and exclaimed, "Which of you is of high morality?" Come out and talk to Lao Tzu. ”
The people looked left and right, and finally stared at Li Erniu's body.
Li Erniu smiled bitterly and was about to step forward, but his mother-in-law grabbed his clothes, as if he was afraid that he would never return.
The man saw that Li Erniu's family had been twisting for a long time without results, so he lost patience. Raised his voice and shouted: "Grind and swallow slowly." Pull him out for Lao Tzu."
Several wolf-like soldiers immediately stepped forward, and Li Erniu's two sons were busy protecting their father, but where were these people's opponents, they were held down and couldn't move, and they were pulled out when they saw their father.
Li cried loudly, and his daughter stepped forward, pointed at the man, and said angrily:
"Kill, kill, isn't it just losing your head? I am not afraid of you! ”
Li Erniu was shocked, and hurriedly shouted to his daughter: "Yulan, go back, it's none of your business here."
Official, the old man is Li Erniu, what do you say to the villain, don't worry about her as a girl. ”
Na Yulan was not afraid at all, and stopped in front of her father and cried to the man: "We didn't rebel, you are all bad people."
Helped those big families occupy our land, and helped them bully people. If you dare to hurt my father, I will fight with you. ”
The general was not angry, looked at the crying Magnolia, and laughed:
"Sure enough, it is the folk style of Sichuan and Shaanxi, even a small village girl is so strong, crying and screaming is not afraid of people, Lao Tzu can't afford to provoke you, Lao Tzu is looking for you Lao Tzu to talk."
Seeing that Yulan still wouldn't let him, the man had a brutal attack, ripped Yulan open, grabbed Li Erniu's collar and carried it out.
Yulan saw that her father was in danger, so she rushed forward in a hurry and dug into the general's face.
The general couldn't help but be furious, let go of Li Erniu, reached out and grabbed Yulan's long hair and was about to have a seizure, but he heard a voice that was neither yin nor yang:
"Yang Baihu, Master Hou's military order can be said clearly, don't bully the people, be careful not to violate military law."
When Yang Baihu heard this, he immediately shrank his head, quickly let go of Yulan, escaped with a piece of silver and handed it to Yulan, then turned around and laughed:
"Lao Tzu and the people of Sichuan and Shaanxi are affectionate, but they didn't bully them, don't worry about it, don't do much trouble, go back and sue Lao Tzu for his black state."
Huang Zongxi nodded with satisfaction, then turned back to Li Erniu and smiled: "You will come forward to answer, rest assured." It's not going to kill you."
Li Erniu hurriedly pushed his daughter back, and then stepped forward and said, "Please give me orders." ”
Yang Baihu nodded, then glared at Yulan, swept the people again, and then suppressed his voice "gently" and said with his teeth bared: "Lao Tzu is a hundred households in the cavalry battalion of the Dingnan Army, have you heard of the name of the Dingnan Army?" ”
Li Erniu replied tremblingly: "The Dingnan Army is a good man, and the little old man naturally knows it. But I don't know what General Yang has to tell him to find the villain? ”
Yang Baihu said with a smile: "The official document of the imperial court has come down, and all the rebellious people will not be killed, and they will be sent overseas to atone for their crimes, and they will be handed over to the Dingnan Army to take care of."
Since you have some prestige, be their leader, and after a day of repairing the barracks, go south with the Dingnan army! ”
As soon as Li Erniu heard that he would not kill, his heart was relieved, and then when he heard that he was sent overseas, he couldn't help but look discouraged.
Looking at Yang Baihu, who was fierce and vicious, he didn't dare to disobey, so he asked, "Yes, I just don't know where to let us go?" ”
Yang Baihu smiled and said: "It's also in vain to tell you, lead your fellow villagers, and go down with the soldiers to settle down." ”
Seeing that the people left with the soldiers, Huang Zongxi smiled and said: "Yang Baihu loves the people like a son, and he actually talks to the people so kindly. ”
Yang Baihu said hesitantly: "It's just to scare them, otherwise it's not honest." ”
"You're not honest." Huang Zongxi nodded his fingers and laughed.
In the camp, the people supported each other, followed the soldiers in fear around the rows of wooden sheds, and finally stopped at a corner of the barracks.
In the tall and wide wooden houses, hot water vapor is constantly rising. The door of one of the wooden houses opened, and a white mist came out.
One of the generals shouted, "Listen to my arrangement, the men will go over there to bathe, and the women and children will bathe here with the concubines." Everyone should hurry up, and when they are done with a shower, they can go to eat and rest. ”
Everyone looked at each other, but they were separated by the shouts of the Dingbian army, and they were led into the wooden house.
After bathing, they were taken to the cafeteria.
The long table, the conjoined bench, the round and large white dough wrapped in coarse grains, and the noodle soup with green vegetables wafting on it.
The pots of radishes and vegetables were stewed in a greasy vegetable soup, and there were still a lot of pieces of meat hidden. People couldn't help but thunder with joy, and they rushed forward to sit down, and without waiting for the orders of the Dingnan army, they began to gobble up.
The steamed buns will be served again when they are gone, the vegetable pot will be filled again when they are empty, and the noodle soup can be served by themselves after drinking, and the sadness and grievances of the people seem to have gradually passed, and they have hope for the future for the first time.
Before the first rays of sunshine fell, the people of Sichuan and Shaanxi got up early.
Generations of hard-working villagers, the hard years passed down from generation to generation, home is their root, the land is their life, they are not qualified to learn to sleep lazy.
However, when they woke up as before, they suddenly realized that since yesterday, their homes and land have been gone, and they have been uprooted from their homes and slaughtered by others.
Yesterday I washed happily for the first time, ate presumptuously for the first time last night, slept deeply for the first time last night, and the vicious and benevolent Dingnan army had not yet gotten up, and the people who were full of spirit gathered together in twos and threes and talked about the unknown future.
"Uncle Li, does the government's words count, will it coax us to leave the countryside and take the lives of the whole family?"
"Didn't you listen to that General Wu, long live the grace of the Lord and have spared us from the death penalty.
If you want to kill us, why bother to let us eat and drink well, wouldn't it be better to cut us directly. ”
"Haven't you heard of the guillotine? When I listen to the murder in the county, I always let you eat a good meal first, so as not to linger and be haunted by evil spirits. ”
"I think that the government can't be the master now, and our lives are all in the hands of the Dingnan Army."
"Doesn't the Dingnan Army also have to listen to the government?"
