PS: Chapter 2 at night

Although Yecheng is called a city, it has no city walls, not because of the so-called "mostly defenseless", but because the city has been in the expansion stage. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Hebei region was sparsely populated, and even if Zhao Shangqing let the cadres run for three years, there were still only a few thousand households, as well as thousands of Fan, Zhongxing, and Wei people who were reduced to gangsters in the war. Among them, there are still Qi people, I heard that these Qi people who were captured in the battle of Wenshui were divided into three groups, one group stayed in Lu to serve, one group went to Weiguo to dig canals, and one group came to Yecheng to dig ditches to rectify the turbulent Zhangshui.

However, with the signing of the Houma Covenant, the subjects of the Jin State Office were divided among Zhao Wei Han, so Yecheng became the largest place of immigration.

At the beginning of the spring of this year, 300 captives of the patriotic country, 1,000 households of people in Handan, 1,000 households of craftsmen in Chaoge, 700 households of old Zhao families from Wen County, and 1,000 households of Zhishi people, they gathered to Yecheng from all directions.

The five-year-old Ximen Leopard witnessed the whole relocation process, his family originally lived in the old Jiangxi Ximen, so he took Ximen as the clan, when the Jin Kingdom moved the capital to Xintian, his great-grandfather did not move there. Who would have thought that their generation, with an order from the new Shangqing Zhao Wuxian, more than 10,000 households in the entire old country were uprooted.

Although the people in the old Jiangdang office have a hard time, and even many of the gangsters' families have no place to stand, and there is no surplus wealth at home, it has not yet reached the point where they have to flee to survive. was forcibly relocated from the hometown where his parents' graves were located, so it was impossible for the people of Jiang to have no complaints, but they were afraid of the sharp blades of Zhao Bing behind him, as well as the name of Zhao Qing. When they left, they were crying bitterly in the graves where their ancestors were buried, and they didn't know if they could come back to worship their ancestors in this life, let alone whether the tax-free benefits promised by Zhao Qing when they moved could be realized, so they went on the road with confusion and suspicion.

At first, they thought that they would go to Tongluo, the new "capital" of the Jin Kingdom, but they ended up walking for half a month and came to the unfamiliar East through the Pukou Road.

When Ximen Leopard followed the clan to come here, it was early spring, and I saw that on the plain next to Zhangshui, a lush meadow covered the north bank of Zhangshui, like a thick green blanket, covering the heavy and compacted yellow earth underneath, which was vaguely dotted with some peach trees, and pink peach blossoms bloomed.

The people who had traveled long distances were very weak, and the Yecheng Ling Ji Ran organized the locals and the first arrivals to build a porridge shed next to the Tu road leading from Pukou to Yecheng, so that the infirm and sick could rest here.

After arriving in Yecheng, Zhao Bing, who was originally extremely serious and kept an eye on the immigrants to prevent them from escaping, turned into a construction brigade, and worked with the local garrison, and it only took a few days to build more than 10,000 shacks, and find some stones to block the wind around, according to the distribution of the Lu at the time of migration, each household has a small shack. Soon, these shacks were spread out on both sides of the Zhangshui River.

It is said that when King Ping moved eastward, two to three percent of the Zhou immigrants died because of the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, which made the Zhou Dynasty even worse after suffering a heavy blow, and Zhao Wuxian did not want to repeat that situation.

Fortunately, there are many doctors who serve Zhao.

In the years that Lu Guo has been based, Bian Que and others have also been constantly improving relevant health regulations. In the past, when fighting with Qi and Zhi, because there were many Lingque healers in the army, the non-combat attrition of the Zhao army was much lower than that of the enemy army, and these health regulations were also applicable to the people. Although this phenomenon is unavoidable, Lingque doctors believe that a considerable number of patients are caused by diseases, and the diseases and high mortality rates of King Ping's eastward migration are mainly caused by poor nutrition and poor management.

Therefore, Bian Que's disciples implemented strict health regulations among the immigrants who arrived in Yecheng, and the laborers held iron axes, opened up the forests around Yecheng, cut down a large amount of wood and firewood, and then boiled water in a clay kettle next to each temporary living shack, everyone had to drink hot water, each person had to eat a portion of vegetables every day, and those who were sick would also receive immediate treatment and close care.

In the end, with the strong organizational ability of Ji Ran and the joint efforts of the Lingque's medical skills, the disease was reduced to a minimum, and although more than 2,000 people were sick with 10,000 families of immigrants, the health regulations summarized by the Lingque doctors for many years have played a huge role. The sick number was isolated and contained, and the vomit and excrement were cleaned up at all times. They also have access to enough boiled water through caregivers, and the death toll has been kept in the hundreds under effective sanitation regulations.

In this way, the initial panic of the immigrants subsided, and they began to pay attention to how the land in front of them could be exploited and used to build their new homes.

……

Zhao Wuxian saved the lives of the immigrants and fulfilled his promise, and each family was given a piece of 100 acres of land! And it's two hundred and forty steps of Zhao's big mu!

Although these fields, which nominally belonged to the people, were either abandoned land or still covered with wild grasses and shrubs, it would take a lot of effort to reclaim them, but for the gangsters and commoners in the narrow old land, it was enough to make them cry with joy.

No matter what the era, the land is the foundation of the peasantry.

However, the extensive cultivation of small farmers is far less efficient than the intensive cultivation organized by the government, so these 10,000 small households are actually under the control of the plan.

"The reason why the ancient holy kings led their people was to do agriculture first. Therefore, the prosperity of Yecheng is first in Shangnong. ”

Ji Ran, who has always attached great importance to the trade of goods, put forward the policy of Yecheng's management, but it is biased towards agriculture, because he knows very well that grain is everything. With food, there will be manpower, and then you can prosper all industries, train soldiers, and finally make the Zhao family rich and strong.

Zhao Wuxian deeply agreed with Ji Ran's strategy, and his original intention was to lead the Zhao family onto the road of "ploughing and warfare". So Fan Chi, a farming expert, was also transferred here from Lu State to prepare for spring ploughing.

"Qin Huai's achievements, as for Hengzhang, the soil is only white soil, and the only thing is wrong, what he is talking about is Yecheng. Although this land is sparsely populated, once the forest and shrubs that have grown for thousands of years are burned by fire, it is a land of ointment. ”

Standing on the bank of Zhangshui and looking at the Yedi where all industries are waiting to be developed, Fan Chi is already ambitious, and wants to replicate the miracle of promoting the field method and planting winter wheat and the miracle of two or even two and a half stones per mu in Lu since Rongshu to Hebei.

"Clearing the land is the most urgent task, and then seize the time to sow seeds and store more food for the first winter of the immigrants in Yecheng. The grain brought from Chaoge and Handan was only enough for the immigrants to eat until the autumn harvest, and after that, they had to allocate additional resources, exceeding the plan of living within their means. ”

Fan Chi already felt that the farming time was delayed, and he was anxious, but fortunately, Yecheng was located in the north, and the cultivation time was slightly later than that of Ludi, and the twelve ditches that were dug by the locals when Cheng Cheng ruled Ye, irrigation could also be carried out smoothly.

As a result, the Yecheng immigrants were divided into small peasant families from the original township party clans, and 10 households were divided into one family, and 10 households were one guarantee. Each armor was assigned to a cow or a bad horse, and these livestock were half bought and half bought by Zhao Wuxian from Zhongshan Kingdom.

Under the leadership of the Tuntian officials, the adults all went to work in full swing, and the young children were also gathered together in the community.

When immigrants first arrived, most of them lived in grass huts with mud walls, but they were built into brick houses.

In fact, even in the old Jiang, only a small number of brick houses near the old palace of the Jin Kingdom, and the rest are mud and thatched shacks, once there is a fire, there will be heavy losses, which is also the reason why large fires often occur in the princes and towns in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Zhao Wuxian's emphasis on education and children touched the hearts of Yecheng immigrants again.

Of course, children don't feel much, they just know that they can't play crazy all day long.

Ximen Leopard entered the Mongolian school, just in the area called "Linzhang", the Mongolian school also used thick wooden boards to put up a long table, the hall is bright and clean, the children open their eyes wide, follow the teacher from the Lu country, from the "poem" to learn.

"The peach is dying, scorching its bloom."

"The son is home, and it is appropriate for him to have a home."

Every morning, the children would start reading to the teacher's elegant dialect with a Ludi accent. For the older Mengtong, Mr. will also explain the meaning, "This is the wedding song, that is, the song for the bride......"

For those who are younger than Simon Leopard, they only need to read and memorize, and then write the words.

After entering the summer season, the cicadas outside Mengxue are better than a day, Ximen Leopard holds the branch with his immature hand, and writes the words "Peach is dying" on the sand table under the case, but his mind has already flown outside.

Because just next to Mengxue, where he is located, a university called "Linzhang Xue Palace" has been completed, and scholars from all over the world flock to it. Mr. said that those who are at the top of this month's exams will be allowed to enter the palace to visit! (To be continued.) )
