Chapter 36 Captain of the Pawn Farmer

Xun Yu's unexpected entrustment made Liu Qi fall into thinking for a while.

Shi A glanced at the soldiers outside the school ground, and suddenly said loudly: "Big brother, isn't this just a good opportunity to train soldiers?" The two generals were worried about where to train the recruits of the spear battalion, and Yuan Lie automatically sent them over to us for sparring, which was not in our hearts......"

Liu Hu exclaimed approvingly: "The third general's words are good, and the recruits under my command are worried about not opening meat." ”

"It's been almost a month since the drill, and it's time for these recruits to see blood, lord." These are Liu Pan's words.

"That being said, I still can't let the hard work of these months go to waste without a comprehensive approach." Liu Qi frowned and asked, "Do you have any ideas?" ”

"Uh..." The Liu brothers choked suddenly, you look at me, I look at you, and said in unison: "Not yet... Unexpectedly. ”

Liu Qi was angry for a while, and scolded with a smile: "I usually ask you to read more military books, but now I know that 'when the book is used, you hate less'." It seems that I have to arrange something for you to do, otherwise I don't know how to be played to death by others in the future. Liu Qi thought for a while, and said with a secret smile: "Before I went to Xinye, you two brothers read me a copy of "The Art of War" one night, and the next day if you can't finish it, the practice will be doubled. ”

As soon as Liu Qi's voice fell, the two of them were bitter.

When the book is used, it is less hated! Xu Jing's eyes lit up, and he carefully read the meaning of this sentence. The more he thought about it, the more curious Xu Jing became about Liu Qi.

Although Shi A is also a martial artist, he has a good teacher, and Wang Yue, the first court swordsman of the dynasty, has always been strict with him. Not to mention being familiar with military books, at least you will be familiar with some simple art of war.

Shi A said: "Big brother, with our current infantry strength, is it okay to divide our troops to deal with two bands of thieves?" ”

"Division?" Liu Qi immediately rejected this suggestion and said: "Although the division of troops can be equal to them, don't forget that they occupy favorable terrain, and it will be us who suffers." ”

Xu Jing also nodded and said, "That's true." Lord, it takes too much sacrifice to storm the storm, why don't you outwit? ”

"Wen Xiu has a plan, you might as well say it directly." The four people present were overjoyed and looked at Xu Jing one after another, and Liu Qi was pleasantly surprised to let Xu Jing quickly say it.

"Yuan Lie has more than 3,000 people in the Luoshan area, where do they get their grain and grass?" Xu Jing threw out one of the most important questions in the march, even if they were thieves, they still needed to eat, drink and sleep, "It is impossible for them to rely on hunting livestock all the time, so they must have food support." ”

"For example, they should support the inside and the rear on this side." Xu Jing pointed his finger in the direction of Xinxi, "Of course, if you guess well, there is really very little support in their rear." ”

"Wen Ruo, what do you mean?" Liu Qi's heart is bright, if this is the case, then the first shot of rectifying Haoqiang will be waved at this moment.

"Yes, Yuan Lie believes that he is the henchman of the Yuan family, if the supply of grain and grass for those surrenders is not enough, he will be furious." Xu Jing obviously knew Yuan Lie very well, and said: "With his character, he will definitely be suspicious, and even rashly send troops to seize the city to get food, this is our opportunity." ”

Liu Qi and the four of them knew that it was still a cold winter, the snow was fluttering, there was not much game on the mountain, and the farmers under the mountain did not store grain.

The two Liu brothers were eager to try: "Then it's time to deal with those birds and powerful families?" ”

Liu Qi pondered for a while and said, "It's not too late to deal with them after the second brother's reinforcements arrive, Ah Pan, are the scouts finding out which ones are supplying Yuan Lie's grain and grass?" ”

"The He family in Zhongyang Town and the Tian family and the Lu family in Huaiyang Town are particularly active, and the intentions of the Deng family of the Nanyang County clan are unknown, so they may maintain a wait-and-see attitude and see how the lord will deal with it." Liu Pan replied.

"Send someone to keep an eye on them, as soon as the second brother arrives, he will kill them immediately, if there is any resistance, there will be no mercy!" Liu Qi's eyes were cold, and he coldly spit out the words "no forgiveness", "Trying to stop us is regarded as a chaotic party, and it will be hacked to death with a knife." ”

Xu Jing shuddered slightly, he couldn't imagine that he underestimated Liu Qi's ruthlessness, he had such courage to make decisions with the heroes who had existed for decades at a young age, he was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers.

Zhongyang Town and Huaiyang Town are both big towns in Luoshan near Yiyang County, and the Deng family is after Deng Yu, the general under the Guangwu Emperor, they have always been loyal to the Han family, and this time it is estimated that the wait-and-see attitude is to protect the self, after all, since Deng Yu's death, there has been no outstanding descendant to support the Deng family, and they have always relied on the older generation to maintain their prestige.

"No!" The Liu brothers were overjoyed and immediately agreed.

The matter of dealing with Yuan Lie was settled, and Liu Qi finally understood what Xu Jing meant by outwitting. First, cut off its grain channel, let it mess up in the cold winter, and then slowly clean it up. Thinking of this, Liu Qi completely let go of a big stone hanging in his heart.

"Mr. Wenxiu, how to solve the problem that the people in the county have no land to cultivate?" Liu Qi didn't say a word, and led to one of the most important problems that should be solved at present.

Xu Jing glanced at Liu Qi suspiciously, and asked, "Mr. Xun ordered the spring ploughing season to open up and cultivate a land a month ago, how do you say that the people in the county have no land to cultivate?" ”

Liu Qi repeatedly told Xu Jing that he had been hearing the news for the past few days, including farming water conservancy, repairing official roads in the county, and so on.

"It's my ignorance, I see." Xu Jing was annoyed and ashamed for a while when he heard this, he thought that Xun Yu had already dealt with these things, and he didn't want the county to be annexed so seriously, it was indeed a big trouble.

"It's okay, let's start from scratch." Liu Qi said softly: "Now that the winter is cold, I don't know how many people are starving and freezing every day, what can Mr. do to deal with it properly?" Let them survive this cold winter is the first step for us to stabilize the hearts of the people in the county. Then he told Xu Jing about the Tuntian order and so on.

Xu Jing asked: "Who came up with the method of repairing water conservancy and official roads with the army, which is a self-sufficient policy for the convenience of the people." ”

"Mr. Wenxiu, you don't know this, this is the lord who came up with it alone." Liu Hu laughed.

Xu Jing was suddenly surprised, and secretly said that this fifteen-year-old lord was really unexpected, and praised it from the bottom of his heart: "It is really a blessing for us to have such a democratic public, and it is a blessing for all the people in the world." ”

"It is up to you to govern the state and county, protect the land, and protect the enemy and the people." Liu Qi asked: "Sir, let's talk about how to deal with these affairs, I am young, and I don't know how to deal with it yet, so I will be in a hurry." ”

Xu Jing also knew that this matter could not be delayed for too long, so he pondered for a while and said: "Now the plan is to recruit the people to build water conservancy and supplement the official road, and the government will be responsible for their meals during the period." If the displaced people have nowhere to live, they can build houses for them to live in, but they also need to build water conservancy for the Lord. ”

Liu Qi suddenly realized that this would indeed save a lot of trouble and buy the hearts of the people.

Xu Jing analyzed: "If the army is stationed in the field, if the war comes, the lord can lease the land to the people and collect a certain amount of land tax for military use, so that the fertile land will not be wasted and no one will cultivate it." Recruiting displaced people to build water conservancy, official roads, etc., can make the lord no longer have to waste soldiers to do at this time, so that he can practice; Both, my lord, please take a look. Xu Jing pointed to the wide hinterland of Luoshan, "The sergeant Tuntian is here, and he can be both self-sufficient as a defense against the enemy." As long as we build more houses and attract displaced people to join us, we will naturally not have to worry about military rations. ”

Liu Qi nodded and praised: "Mr. Wenxiu's strategy made me pause. ”

"I am also doing my duty, if there is no Tuntian order from the lord, my plan is really difficult to enter the house." Xu Jing smiled and said: "There is another point, the local tyrants forcibly occupy the fertile land and have a backlog of grain, as long as the lord takes a little means, why worry about not having money and grain to pay for the labor of the displaced people?" ”

"After a few days, Yuan Lie's thieves will be eliminated, and the lord can also issue an order to let the powerful in the county clear the fields before the beginning of spring, and those who hand over the robbed land will not be imprisoned, otherwise all will be returned to the county government and punished for the crime of harassing the people and robbing the fertile land." Xu Jing's ruthlessness flashed.

Shi A frowned and said: "Is this method too drastic, I am afraid that it will arouse their intention to unite, and it will be difficult to clean up at that time." ”

"The strong jackal can't give in, and it will be the lord who will suffer at that time." As soon as Xu Jing remembered that the fields he belonged to had been plundered by the powerful and powerful, he was angry, although he himself was from a wealthy family, he had no feelings for the wealthy family at all.

"What Mr. Bunxiu said is exactly what I am worried about." Liu Qi agreed: "For this matter, we will do it according to Mr. Wen Xiu, Mr. Wen Xiu is responsible, and Ah Hu and Ah Pan will fully assist." ”

"No!" The two of them agreed to the order, and Liu Pan said in a loud voice: "Lao Tzu has long wanted to do something to this group of people!" Now it's finally time to get your chance. ”

"You two brothers, don't be reckless, everything is up to Mr. Wenxiu!" Liu Qi was worried that the two cousins were young and easy to be reckless, so he instructed Xu Jing: "Mr. Wenxiu, the two cousins are young and ignorant, please teach them more in the future." ”

"My lord, please rest assured." Xu Jing replied.

"In charge of recruiting displaced people to build fortifications and in charge of tuntian, who does Mr. Wenxiu think can take on this responsibility?" Liu Qi asked.

The two brothers of the Liu family have been practicing the spear battalion for Liu Qi, seeing that they don't really want to do the Tuntian Order, there are only a few people under Liu Qi who can take out their hands. Therefore, he asked Xu Jing what he meant at a deeper level, and how many people could be recruited to work for him.

Xu Jing pondered for a while and said, "There are two people who can serve as people." ”

"Please tell Mr. Wenxiu clearly." Liu Qi is overjoyed, now is the time to recruit talents, and no one can be let go.

"Yi Jibo, who is a general of Zhennan; The other person is Han Hao, the younger brother of Han Xuan, the Taishou Han Xuan clan in Changsha, and he is now idle at home. ”

"Iraq? Han Hao? Liu Qi was somewhat impressed by Yi Ji, and said: "If it is Yi Jibo, the kid can invite his father." As for Han Hao, I wonder if Mr. Wen Xiu can invite him on his behalf? ”

"I'd like to give it a try." Xu Jing is familiar with Han Hao, and he also had a very good opinion of Han Hao in the original Yuedan review.

"Even so, Mr. Wenxiu immediately wrote to invite Mr. Han Hao to take up the post of Lieutenant of Diannong, and I asked my father to ask Mr. Yi to assist me." Liu Qi immediately commanded.

"No!"
