Chapter 54: Shuen Township
Although Qin Mintang, the magistrate of Yilong County, was still complaining, and he said that Yang Lin had deceived Houjiazhuang and was eaten by a big family, but he sighed when he saw such a scene today.
In other places, the government has to urge the government to collect money and grain, and it is unthinkable that the villagers in Sichuan Province are enthusiastically paying grain today. (Feng Yuxiang was also quite puzzled during the Republic of China, Feng as an assistant commander stationed in Sichuan Province, often saw Sichuan people competing to pay public money and grain, and sometimes everyone fought in order to pay early)
Yang Lin was quite impressed, pointed to the villagers and said: "Qin Zhixian, this is the Diao people in the mouths of your officials, what a hard-working, brave, kind and amiable people, how can they become Diao people in your mouths."
In fact, the people's requirements are very simple, that is a way to live, that is, the justice of heaven. ”
Qin Mintang was quite emotional, and arched his hand: "General Yang, at first, the official felt that you were too domineering and more rough to collect money and grain, and at first I wanted to see you laugh at you, thinking that you were not in line with the decency.
I can't imagine that this is the end now, even if it can't reach the amount of levy required by Shangguan at that time, don't dismiss the official and stop doing it. ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, the boats at the various piers were full of boats, and the rivers were full of laughter.
As of the 28th, the three counties had received more than 9 percent of 4 percent of the money and grain, which was unexpected.
Yang Lin asked the local security chiefs to take the lijia chiefs to go deep into the local area to check, except for a very small number of people who are determined to go against the government, most of the outstanding payments are disaster-stricken households, and these difficult households are temporarily written down, so that they can be collected when the spring and summer grain is collected in the next year.
Returning to the ancient city with the soldiers, there were village elders coming out to say goodbye from time to time along the way, and some were even crying silently.
The amount collected by the government is less than before the imperial court increased the three salaries (the government has apportioned at various levels, coupled with the manipulation of officials and officials, the actual amount collected in previous years is far more than the amount collected on the paper), and some even call for the establishment of ancestral halls.
Yang Lin was stunned and didn't dare to speak, and returned to the ancient city with a red face, and what was even more surprising was that hundreds of soldiers actually knelt in front of the school field to thank him for today's kindness.
Different from the guards, most of the soldiers come from the countryside, young and strong, and the powerless family is not subject to the pressure of the government, not only did not urge the people this time, but also handed over the grain nearby to put an end to apportionment, these days some local squires have brought words, claiming that adults are worried about the country and the people is a good official who is rare to be the master of the people, and wants everyone to follow the adults and not have a family without face.
Thinking of the old words of the villagers along the way, looking at the simple and young faces, and remembering that no matter how hard he tried in his previous life, it was difficult to take revenge in his chest, Yang Lin's vanity swelled again, and he secretly vowed to do everything possible to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the Sichuan Massacre.
Of course, in addition to praise, there is also a curse, those eunuchs who were requisitioned for grain were hated one by one, and everyone gathered together to accuse Yang Lin of sheltering the victims and the squire of fish and meat to the governor's yamen, to the Daotai yamen, and to the prefect's yamen.
Even in the past life when the TV network was developed, the old people often complained that the folk New Year had no taste, and they didn't feel it before they crossed, and they really felt it after they crossed.
From the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the countryside is full of strong New Year's flavor, first the family reunion, and then the small family reunion, the people worship the ancestors, the family sweeps the tomb to worship the ancestors, the countryside is ushered in every day, the lion dance, the big opera, the temple fair or something is dizzying.
Yang Ming occasionally participates in folk activities, but every time he appears, it causes a sensation.
The temple fair and the Confucian Temple enjoy star treatment, and everyone rushes to see the true face, while the Zhizhou Xu Confucius is left aside and no one cares.
In front of the social stage, the celebrities of the class leaders poured over one by one, hoping to be able to catch up with two sentences.
Through various actions, Yang Lin actively participated in various social activities in the late Ming Dynasty, and of course caused a lot of controversy.
Some people say that Yang Linshu is in the township, and some even use this attack to say that they harbor evil intentions.
At first, I felt quite fresh, but after many times, I felt that although it was interesting, in addition, because he knew the trend of history, Yang Lin was more concerned about military training.
The training task was just issued that night, and the deputy general Yang Wei said with a smile: "Mr. Qian, the last general is not complaining about anything, the brothers have been training day and night in the past two months, not to mention the other soldiers and the pacesetters of the governor's yamen, even if they are not much better than the border soldiers recruited by the imperial court in the past."
Although the meal is half a pillar of incense kung fu, but every meal has a well-known dizziness, now the brothers have the strength one by one, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain the whole team is about a stick of incense kung fu (about 30 minutes).
This is at least twice as fast as in the past, and if it were in the past, it would not have been possible for half an hour, and if it was the old soldiers of the guard, it might have taken another hour.
There is also the ability to run long distances, and seventy miles a day is not a problem.
Ordnance and weapons, everyone has been trained and familiar, and some soldiers are even more powerful than veterans of four or five years? ”
Yang Lin smiled and looked at everyone: "Brothers, the progress in the past two months is obvious to all, and I am proud of my brothers."
As the saying goes, there is no first and no second, and we must know our own gaps while making progress, otherwise we will sit in the well and watch the sky.
Everyone knows that whenever I have free time, I study the ancient military books, Wu Qi trained Wei Wushu, Qin army of strong Qin tiger wolf, Han Dynasty Yulin army, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, Tang Dynasty Shen Ce army, Song Dynasty Yue Fei's back Wei army, Wu Jia army of Wu rank Wu Lin brothers, not to mention, just say that I am very different from Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang's two dukes, and Guanning soldiers and horses.
The deputy general just said that our department's ability to run is 70 miles a day, but it will last for two days at most, and by the third day, the brothers will not be able to hold on, and they will be miserable.
And what about Qi Jiajun? Qi Wuyi had just defeated the Japanese in Xinhe, and when he got the news that the Japanese invaded Taizhou, he led his soldiers and horses to set off overnight, and rushed 140 miles in one day and one night to defeat the Japanese outside the city of Taizhou.
Brothers, I have roughly calculated, if I don't rest, I may be able to run hundreds of miles after a day and a night of continuous marching, but after arriving at the destination, people will definitely need to rest for half a day to recover, not to mention defeating the other party, even if I can hold on, it is not bad.
Brothers, think about it, there is a Qijia army composed of the people of Yiwu, why can't the Pengzhou soldiers composed of the people of Pengzhou? ”
When everyone heard this, they were amazed, and they all shouted incredibly, not to mention that an army with a large number of men and horses was a strong man, and it was difficult to walk one hundred and forty miles in one day and one night. (The ancients often went to work in the fields, just like listening to their grandfathers when they were young, they often went to other places to buy salt when they were young.)
Yang Lin Zhengse said: "Wen Wu is the first and Wu is the second, although we are well trained now, but compared with the strong army at that time, such as the Ping thief general Zuo Liangyu, the elite soldiers under the general Huang Degong, and the soldiers and horses in Guanning, it is also far from the pro-army under Liu Kou Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong."
A few years ago, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong had entered the Kou Sichuan many times, marching up to 100 miles a day, although with the help of horsepower, it was not easy for such a large army to move so quickly.
Brothers, although I am quite proud of the achievements in the past few months, I hope that everyone will make persistent efforts to jointly build our Pengzhou soldiers into a first-class strong army in the world. ”
Liao Qifang shook his head and said: "The eldest husband who is alive doesn't want to be beautiful for a lifetime, and now after two months of training, the brothers are very ambitious. ”
Yang Lin nodded secretly, not to mention the brothers under him, even if he wanted to pull out the drill and test the results of the training.
