When the old village chief heard Cao Han's voice, he was immediately frightened, he didn't dare to sweat, his eyes glanced at Ji Xi, and when he saw his expression, his heart sank suddenly, and he secretly said that it was not good, and he hurriedly said:
"The little old man is old and faint, and he didn't see anyone out of the village: his mind was also confused, and he probably remembered it. You adults have a lot, don't be like the little old man, what you want to smell, the little old man must cooperate. ”
Ji Xi's narrow eyes flashed with coldness, and with a gentle smile on his face, he asked with concern: "It's okay, my Han Kingdom has brought a doctor with the army, do you want to call you and show you?"
It's just that you yourself said that you are old and frail, and this doctor will not be able to teach for a long time, and maybe there will be a little risk in the process. ”
The old village chief smiled on his face, but his heart was beating violently, and he hurriedly said: "This is not bothering Your Excellency, what do you ask, the little old man must know everything, and he will say everything."
"That's good." Only then did Ji Xi restrain his gentle smile and said indifferently.
"Go, gather the whole village, let them come and re-register, I have something to say to them. In addition, prepare firewood, boiling water, wood, linen and other materials, you can rest assured, we will pay, provided that you accept Han Yuan here. Ji Xi said indifferently.
"Close! We accept Han Yuan! "The old village chief dares not to agree, these Han people do not slaughter the village, do not rape x plunder, it is already thankful, how dare there be the slightest slack.
Before the Han soldiers and soldiers were on the household registration for a while, the people naturally hid their mothers-in-law and daughters, there were really no men, only orphans and widows, so they could only see the soldiers with their heads.
However, the people were surprised to find that these Han soldiers, although they acted rudely, but did not hurt the people, on the contrary, if they accidentally damaged the door, they would also take out Han Yuan as compensation, and after the preliminary count, they found that the number was wrong, so they went back to report.
This made the people breathe a sigh of relief, after all, there were only more than sixty young people in the entire village, and these soldiers were all tigers and wolves, this was still the vanguard, and there were more to come.
Under the call of the old village chief, with the good impression from before, and the bright blade on their side, where did they dare not go, they could only go to the center of the village to gather, black and chaotic.
More than 400 people, including young people, old people, women, and children, among which the elderly were the least, except for the old village chief, a few people stood at the front of the crowd, and the children were held tightly in the arms of their parents or mothers, and everyone was obviously very nervous.
The surrounding Han soldiers were very vigilant to scan the crowd to prevent the boat from capsizing in the gutter.
However, at this moment, Zhang Liao also arrived with a large army, and after learning about the situation from Ji Xi, he nodded, took off his armor and halberd, and walked up to the wooden platform used for the ceremony before, looking at the worried people below.
"I, the Minister of the Han Army, the Governor and Commander of the Han Army, are responsible for the command of this Han-Yan War.
This war has nothing to do with you, and our Han Kingdom will never involve the war on the people. Of course, there is a premise, and this premise is that you are not enemies of the Han Kingdom! If you ignore the interests of the Han Kingdom and do something harmful to the interests of the Han Kingdom, what awaits you will be razed by the three tribes.
At the same time, after the end of the war, the Han Kingdom will resettle you, and at the same time, as long as each household reaches three people, you can receive thirty acres of land. That's all for the time being, if there are no problems, please cooperate with the re-registration. ”
As soon as Zhang Liao's words fell, there was a dense whispering in the crowd, but Zhang Liao also saw a few cold-eyed bystanders, secretly wrote them down and left!
Ji Xi was in charge of registration, and there were only about 100 households.
Zhang Liao, on the other hand, continued to find the old village chief and began to inquire about the situation in Xu Wuxian.
The old village chief didn't dare to slack off, so he naturally knew everything and told Zhang Liao what he knew about Xu Wuxian.
Xu Wuxian has a standing army of 500 people, a population of more than 12,000 households, nearly 60,000 people, some time ago, the young and strong people in each village were recruited, and now they are going to spring ploughing, 9, which is why there are few young and strong people in the village.
In the end, the old village chief invited Zhang Liao to live in his house, and at the same time, he had already vacated a vacant house for several people.
After Zhang Liao learned about it, he politely refused the invitation of the old village chief, promised to leave the village at dawn tomorrow, and left immediately.
In addition to the standing army and the conscripts, the opponent's strength is at least more than 6,000, and although there are only 500 combatants among them, they can't withstand the many cannon fodder of others.
Zhang Liao asked the guards to set up a camp outside the village, recuperate today, set off tomorrow at midnight, and arrive at Xu Wu County at dawn, and the unclothed archers immediately explored the inside and outside of Xu Wu County, especially the only way to prevent Mr. Purple Fox from having an ambush.
Most of the Han soldiers were new to Yandi, and Zhang Liao intended to let the soldiers relax and relax, provided that they did not violate military discipline. These soldiers were very curious and walked around the inside and outside, and found that it seemed to be the same, and gradually lost interest.
Occasionally use Han Yuan to buy something to eat, at first I was worried that Han Yuan would not be able to use, but Ji Xi said hello in advance, and the old village chief also reminded from door to door not to conflict with the Han people, Han Yuan can be sold to merchants in the city alone, although it will be discounted, but it is better than nothing.
So seeing that the Han Yuan worked, one by one the local tyrants who were used to the Han Kingdom brandished the Han Yuan and bought it wantonly, but soon, this situation was unexpected.
Because of the bubbles on the soles of their feet, many soldiers paid a family to be responsible for boiling hot water, and then gathered together to wash their feet and chat and talk.
At this time, several women came with their children to bring hot water, and the hot water was the original cold river water, and a Han sergeant touched the water, indicating that the temperature was moderate, and the soldiers took out a cardboard box from their waist bags, and inside the cardboard box was a small piece of light yellow solid two fingers wide.
The Han sergeant first washed for a while, and then began to bend down and began to wipe with the light yellow solid, with the wiping, foam appeared on the feet, and at the same time there was a very light fragrance, and the Han sergeant was accustomed to it.
The women who were in charge of delivering water on the side were secretly glimpsing this scene and smelling the fragrance in the air, and they were immediately full of surprise.
At this moment, a girl curiously asked the women about their doubts.
"Big brother, what are you painting? It's a lot of foam, and it's so fragrant. ”
The Han soldiers glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, and one of them said very patiently: "This is called soap, it is similar to soap, I wiped it with this, washed it clean, and the fragrance is rosin, you Yan Kingdom has it, he came out of the pine tree, I don't know the specifics."
Today, the fragrance of the Han Kingdom has developed from Yueji, magnolia, etc. to more than a dozen, and rosin has naturally been excavated, and this rosin is more suitable for men.
Of course, the price of rosin soap is very expensive, and it is naturally impossible for Zhuxia to give it to the soldiers for free, and the soap issued to the soldiers is the kind that does not add any fragrance, and the rosin soap should be bought by individual tyrants themselves.
However, this sentence attracted the attention of the people, and they pointed at the Han soldiers, thinking that this was clearly the son who went out, where was it like those bitter Qiu Ba in the past.
In addition, the villagers successively found that although they also bought something from them to try it, the first bite of all the Han soldiers ate was to frown and eat it, and then they took out a small bottle from their waist bag, twisted the mouth of the bottle and sprinkled some white flower powder.
To the shock of the villagers, the fact was that the powder was actually salt!
Also, for those who are used to eating cheap salt, and this village is located inland, there is a natural shortage of salt, and suddenly I eat things that I am not used to eating without salt.
Under the fermentation of these two things, more and more novelties opened the eyes of the villagers, and the people of two different countries stayed in one village, and for the first time there was a conflict other than war.
The different habits of the Han soldiers and the strength of the trenches on display made the villagers more and more convinced that the Han State would indeed give them land, and the remaining sixty or so young men also developed an impulse to join the army.
This is not an army at all, but a pleasure!
