The battle is over!

The bandits left behind thirty or forty corpses and a few wounded, and the rest fled without a trace!

Out of the woods, a group of more than fifty people came out, their clothes disheveled, but they all carried short bows and waist knives! Of course, they were the ones who attacked the slurgy.

The leader is in his thirties, who is relatively dark and thin, and is only about 1.6 meters tall. His eyes were like eagles, and he was very energetic.

"Lock the goose throat Sang Hongfei!" One of the coachmen exclaimed.

Wu Yan listened, Sang Hongfei! Or a bandit?

So why did he come to attack Gou Chong's gang?

However, seeing that these people did not have the slightest malice, everyone was relieved.

More than 20 meters away from Wu Yanzhi, Nasang Hongfei asked all his subordinates to stop. He unsheathed all his weapons and handed them to the man beside him, then walked forward quickly.

When he arrived at the horse of Wu Yan, he knelt on one knee, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Xiaomin Sang Hongfei meets Ambassador Wu!" ”

He also has a unique vision, and he recognized Wu Yanzhi at a glance.

Wu Yanzhi nodded: "No courtesy, get up and speak!" ”

With that, he jumped off his horse.

That Sang Hongfei didn't get up, Wu Yanzhi didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this Sang Hongfei gourd, he just stared at him.

"Ambassador Wu, Xiaomin and others came to surrender today, Xiaomin and others were framed by corrupt officials and had to fall into the grass. In fact, it is just a local corrupt official who has been robbed three times! He refused to get up.

When Wu Yanyi heard this, he understood a little. If they really have to do it, then they should hear the details.

"Good! Hurry up, if you really have to do it and you don't hurt the innocent. I could have pleaded with the Holy One and treated you lightly! Wu Yanzhi nodded.

"Thank you Ambassador Wu for being considerate of the people, and the villain slowly reported the incident to Ambassador Wu one by one!" Nasang Hongfei finally stood up.

"Where is it convenient to talk?" Wu Yanzhi asked.

"Ambassador Wu, the villain has three things to do today. The first is to chase and kill Gou Chong and a group of mountain bandits; The second is to explain to Ambassador Wu the root cause of our falling grass;

Third, on behalf of the more than 10,000 displaced people in Funiu Mountain, I have come to ask Ambassador Wu to make decisions for us. Dozens of veteran representatives of the displaced townships are already waiting for Ambassador Wu in Shangpulu Village, three miles below the watershed! ”

Want to talk to the homeless? That Sang Hongfei's words made it difficult for Wu Yanzhi again.

I don't have this mission, that's the responsibility of the new Fengge Sheren Wei Sili, who serves as a persuading farmer!

Besides, the two things of getting married and mining copper are also very urgent, so the time is very tight.

At this time, Jiang Shipeng came over and whispered in his ear: "Ambassador Wu, according to his humble position, the ambassador can go and have a look!" Now that the displaced people have become a great problem, the Holy One is also worried.

Why don't ambassadors go and hear what they really think! If only a solution could be found! That's a great achievement! ”

When Wu Yanyi heard it, he felt that what he said was very reasonable, since he came, let's go and stay for a few days.

So he said to Jiang Shipeng: "That's good! You ask Cui Yu to lead them forward, and tell Xiangcheng County to send someone here to deal with the dead and wounded.

You go with me, plus Yao Kuan and Yufei are enough, more is useless! ”

"Yes! The lowly post will go and arrange with Inspector Cui. So saying, he departed.

Wu Yanzhi called Na Liu Bin again, expressed his gratitude to him, and said that he would definitely recommend him for a new position if he had the opportunity.

When Liu Bin heard this, he was very happy: "The lowly general will cooperate with the city and county, and after handling the affairs here, Ambassador Wu will take care of it, and God will see you again!"

Wu Yanzhi nodded: "I hope so!" ”

He must want to return to Shendu, but this Liu Bin is not easy to say, if Luyangguan is revoked, his term of office has just expired, and no one recommends him, so he must be a candidate for a few years before there is no doubt that he will be an official.

After the matter here is handed over to Liu Bin and Xiangcheng County, he will be fine.

……

It's a watershed moment.

He then said goodbye to Li Panpan and Ning'er! The two of them were full of worries, and kept telling "Lang Jun be careful!" ”

Oh, yes! If something happens to Wu Yanzhi, they will become logs drifting on the river again, and I don't know who they will end up with.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Wu Yanzhi took Jiang Shipeng, Yao Kuan, Yufei and other three people to follow Sang Hongfei, walk on the fork in the road, and rush to Shangpulu Village.

Along the way, Sang Hongfei introduced the situation to Wu Yanzhi.

It turned out that the homeless people were very concerned about the situation and often sent people to inquire about the relevant situation! When they learned that Wei Sili was coming to investigate the displaced people, they might take some drastic measures.

Therefore, they were very worried, and they heard that Wu Yanzhi was a copper and iron envoy, and he also served the imperial history, so they hoped that he could reflect the voice of the exiles to the emperor.

The homeless people have no way to return to their hometowns, they live in the mountains, they lack food and clothing, and their lives are very difficult.

Wu Yanzhi asked the reason again, and it turned out that most of them were a drought and a locust plague five or three years ago, which caused almost half of the fields to fall short of six or seven percent.

Officials in several nearby states failed to implement tax breaks and disaster relief, resulting in thousands of people starving to death.

Not only were many people unable to collect enough taxes, but they also did not have the necessary food to live, so they had to flee their hometowns and enter the Funiu Mountains.

"How many homeless people are there in the mountains? When you enter the mountains, how can you live? Wu Yanzhi asked.

"Ambassador Qiqiwu! Within 800 miles of this Funiu Mountain, there are now more than 300 large and small cottages.

Almost all of them are homeless, and it is difficult to know the exact number of people, some say 30,000 or 40,000, others say only 10,000 or 20,000. The villain is estimated to be no more than fifteen thousand!

The number of people is decreasing, mainly due to the lack of medical care, some people have left the area to return to their hometowns, and many people have died of illness. It's certainly not as convenient as back home, but there's no way back! Because most of the land has been divided.

People make a living digging wild vegetables, farming, hunting, panning for gold, mining and so on in the mountains, and these people behind me are hunters! ”

Wu Yanzhi shook his head, it seems that the homeless people are just evading some taxes, and in fact, life is not as good as people think.

However, when he heard about the opening of the mine, he asked, "What mines are there in this mountain?" Is it all about gold panning? ”

"That's for sure, a lot of people pan for gold in the valley for a living, but this sand gold is getting less and less, and the other is digging coal (coal) and selling it to people outside the mountains.

However, if this coal cave is too deep, it is also easy to have an accident, and it is easy to gather poisonous gas in people, and people are easy to be poisoned and die. Second, if you don't pay attention, there will be an explosion, and there will be no bones! ”

Wu Yanyi listened, and it goes without saying that he studied mining as an undergraduate, and he has studied both metal and non-metal mining.

The main toxic and harmful gases in this coal mine are gas and carbon dioxide, as long as the gas concentration reaches a critical point, encounters an ignition source, and has sufficient oxygen, it will explode!

If the carbon dioxide concentration exceeds the standard, people will suffocate to death.

These displaced people lack the necessary coal mining technology, and accidents are unavoidable.
