Chapter 0103: Qiang Village Confrontation
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Jiang Qing had already arrived at the north gate on time, and it seemed that he was indeed happy about the grain requisition.
At this time, there were about fifty soldiers in front of the North City Gate, and Jiang Qing walked over surrounded by several soldiers.
Looking at the soldiers who were ready to go, Jiang Qing nodded with satisfaction.
"Let's go!"
Jiang Qing came to the neatly lined up soldiers and made a heroic gesture to leave.
"Yes!"
Seeing that the commander was so high-spirited, the soldiers naturally did not dare to slack off, answered heavily, and then turned around and walked out of the northern city.
At this time, Jiang Qing also hurriedly rode on his horse carefully with the support of the soldiers around him, and then led the soldiers who also jumped on the horses, and followed the soldier brigade in front of him out of the city to collect food.
When Jiang Qing went back yesterday, he had already instructed the soldiers to go to the Qiang people in Mianxian County to collect grain today, although the soldiers were somewhat hindered by the courage of the Qiang people and the virtue of the Ma brothers of the Qiang people, but Jiang Qing had already given the order, and they had to carry it out.
Anyway, the war in Nanzhong is tight now, and the current Ma Dai is not in Chengdu City, otherwise let Ma Dai know that they actually went to Qiangzhai to collect grain, and they would have to shed their skin if they didn't die.
At this time, the soldier looked at Jiang Qing, who had his head raised next to him, and respected him even more, as if this adult was not afraid of heaven and earth, which also gave the soldiers a little backbone.
Jiang Qing, who was sitting on the horse, naturally saw the admiring eyes of the soldiers, and this feeling made him can't help but raise his round and fat head upwards as much as he could.
It's just that Jiang Qing didn't think much about the relationship between Ma Dai and the Qiang people, because he knew that his uncle and Prime Minister Zhuge supported him in everything, and even when he saw His Majesty a few days ago, when he was in advance of Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, His Majesty still didn't dare to say a word.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qing was even more excited, his heart was full of bags of grain and rewards for himself after the things were done, these beautiful things were like the grain that filled his granary, full of his mind, so that Jiang Qing couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Mianxian County is not too far away from Chengdu City, and he has been here before, so he is naturally very familiar with this place.
Along the official road for almost two hours, Jiang Qing and the soldiers saw the outline of the county seat of Mianxian County in front of them.
At this time, the sun had almost just hung in the air, and it was already autumn at this time, so the weather was not so hot, in a hurry, Jiang Qing still slowly put away the reins, stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and narrowed his eyes into a slit, looking at the quiet Mianxian County in front of him, his face was full of satisfaction.
"Let's go! Go directly to Qiang Village! Immediately, Jiang Qing casually gave an order.
As soon as Jiang Qing's words fell, the soldiers walked around the Mianxian County in front of them, and walked directly to the place where there was a mountain in the north of the city, which was the largest Mianshan in Mianxian County, and under the cliff was the village of the Qiang people who lived by hunting all year round.
Jiang Qing took these soldiers on horseback and walked to the front of the stockade, but the big wooden door of the stockade was closed at this time, and groups of figures in the stockade could be seen through the fence next to it.
At this time, the people in the stockade also seemed to see Jiang Qing and the soldiers who were walking slowly, and many men in the stockade had gathered in front of the stockade with bows and arrows in hand.
Jiang Qing, who was on the horse, naturally saw these Qiang people who gathered in front of the stockade with bows and arrows, and was a little nervous when he saw the bows and arrows in the hands of these Qiang people, but he looked at the soldiers with command weapons around him, who were no less than the Qiang people, and he calmed down slightly.
"Stop! What are you doing here?! ”
As soon as Jiang Qing and the soldiers walked to the door of the stockade, they heard a cold shout suddenly coming from the stockade in front of them.
Accompanied by a deep cold cheer, I saw a young man holding a longbow walking out of the crowd of the Qiang people, looking at Jiang Qing and the others with disdain, if Liu Chan was here, he would definitely recognize this person as soon as possible Jiang Xiaoyan, the young patriarch of the Qiang people.
Suddenly hearing the cold cheer, Jiang Qing was also startled, but after looking at the young man who came out of the crowd, he rolled his eyes, and also sat on the horse and said disdainfully: "Hmph! What a hairy boy, he dares to talk to this official like this! ”
"Hairy child?" Jiang Xiaoyan raised his eyebrows, and stared at Jiang Qing who was sitting on the horse viciously, "Phew! Dog officer, you think I don't know what you're doing here! The villagers in Mianxian County have let you finish collecting grain, and now they dare to come to our village to collect grain! ”
"Humph! What a dog officer! Jiang Qing sneered, "Just a few words at you, the official will arrest you!" Come on! Arrest this outrageous hairy boy and beat me up! ”
"You dare to arrest me?"
Jiang Xiaoyan sneered, directly pulled up the big bow in his hand, put on the arrow and coldly pointed it at Jiang Qing, and the Qiang men behind him also raised the bow and arrow in their hands to confront Jiang Qing and the soldiers.
"Whoever dares to step into the stockade, don't blame me for being polite with the bow and arrow in my hand!" Jiang Xiaoyan coldly stretched his bow and pulled his arrow, looked at Jiang Qing and the soldiers on the opposite side and said.
At this time, Jiang Qing was also a little unnatural and reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead, if it was ordinary people, as long as they saw the clothes they were wearing, they would have been frightened and begged for mercy, but now these Qiang people are not only not afraid, but it seems that they have to fight with themselves, which makes Jiang Qing, who has always been a fox and a fake tiger, a little spitting, and his open mouth is closed again.
At this time, Jiang Qing was looking at the soldiers around him, and the soldiers also looked at Jiang Qing with worried faces, as if telling him that this matter was up to him.
"A bunch of rubbish!"
Jiang Qing snorted coldly, then his small eyes gradually narrowed, and then slowly dismounted, grinned and said politely to the Qiang people in the front village: "Hehe, you have misunderstood, this official is also acting on our orders today!" We're just here to collect grain, everyone has something to say, don't make it difficult for the official! ”
Jiang Qing, who was still domineering just now, suddenly made a 100-moderate turn at this time, which made all the Qiang people also frown unnaturally, and then looked at their young patriarch Jiang Xiaoyan in unison.
"Phew!" Jiang Xiaoyan spat fiercely and snorted coldly: "Joke! We Qiang people have always been hunting for a living, never growing food, you dog official actually came to ask us for food? ”
Jiang Xiaoyan opened his mouth as a dog official and closed his mouth as a dog official, which made Jiang Qing, who had always been smooth, even more angry, but looking at the Qiang people in the village, Jiang Qing still didn't have the courage to really use force with them.
Since he didn't dare to use force, although Jiang Qing was angry in his heart, he still grinned and said politely: "This little brother doesn't know, this is what Your Majesty meant, as long as the people of our Han Kingdom have the law to pay grain, so the lower officials have to come to disturb you!" ”
At this time, the Qiang people were silent, the people of the Han State, this sentence was like a big stone and pressed heavily on the hearts of the Qiang people, yes, since they followed Ma Chao to the Han State, they are the people of the Han Dynasty, and now they are also living in the territory of the Han State, if they resist the will is to betray the Han State, then what awaits them is not only the simple of requisitioning grain.
"Hey, hey, fight me! You're still a little tender! Jiang Qing also saw the embarrassed Qiang people in front of him, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, and at the same time felt proud and proud of his improvisation.
"What a citizen of the Han Kingdom!" Just when the Qiang people were silent and Jiang Qing was secretly happy, a slightly old but fiery voice came from the back of the Qiang people's crowd!
