Half a month can't let people with the pain of bereavement get out of their grief, but the trauma in Yongzhou City is being repaired day by day.

From the very beginning, Han Gang concentrated the manpower in the city, cleaning up the ruins one area after another. Under his leadership, the people also moved quickly. Most of the remains, which were rotting in the warm air of spring, had been transported out of the city. The owner chooses the place to bury it, and the ownerless one digs a big pit together - Han Gang said at first that he would incinerate it all, but later saw the amount of wood that needed to be consumed, so he took his decision back, and now he really can't afford to consume it.

And at the foot of the North Mountain, there are endless fireworks every day. The timber harvested from the mountains is directly used as fuel for the lime kilns. Originally, there were two places on the edge of Yongzhou City, which were specially built by Su Mian after he came back from the capital and got some medical knowledge from Hangang.

It's just that with the current situation, whether to bury the remains or spray disinfection in the city, lime needs to be used. The output of just two lime kilns was really not enough, and more lime kilns were built. Near Yongzhou City, there are a lot of wood and limestone. With technology, manpower, and raw materials, the output of lime is getting higher and higher day by day.

The people of Yongzhou now know how to clean up the ruins by the fastest means. First, they dug interconnected trenches to attract flowing water—before that, the re-excavated moats had been connected to Zuojiang again—and the corpses in the ruins were collected and transported out of the city in wooden boats or rafts. After clearing a complete plot, sprinkle a piece of lime water, and after two or three rounds, it is considered clean.

"I thought I thought there would be some days, but I didn't expect the progress to be so fast." After half a month, Su Ziyuan's mood has calmed down a lot, and he still has a daughter by his side. In addition, he devoted himself to his work and had no time to think about other things, "Although the people worked hard, they did not complain, all of them were the credit of the envoys to work for relief." ”

Han Gang rubbed his forehead, "Tens of thousands of disaster victims are waiting to be fed, and I have to bring enough grain and grass, I have a terrible headache these days." ”

"I heard that the envoy was in the capital two years ago and placed hundreds of thousands of Hebei refugees ......"

"It's hard for a good woman to have no rice cooking. If there is not enough food, no matter how good the means are, it is useless. "Transporting grain from Pennsylvania has to go over the mountains and mountains, and the transportation is not a few days' rations for thousands of people, but to maintain the lives of tens of thousands of people for two or three months in a row, or even longer, Han Gang is really a headache," I don't know if the Champa rice that Lu Dao has just planted will be able to be harvested safely and steadily in two months. ”

"There's still a month and a half. Just now, Xia Guan had already gone out to see it, and the seedlings in the field were growing very well. As long as there are no surprises, the harvest will be in mid-April. ”

Champa rice is early-maturing, high-yielding, and does not pick the ground, except for the bad taste, there are no other shortcomings. Since it was introduced into the country in the early Song Dynasty, it has long become the main variety of rice in the south over the years, and the post-disaster replanting also relies on this kind of rice. While Han Gang was dealing with the remains of the ruins in the city, he ordered to replant in time in the abandoned fields outside the city, which was related to the belly of tens of thousands of people, and this agricultural time could not be mistaken at all.

"However, the seedlings grew well, thanks to the strict responsibility of the transport envoy. Yongzhou planting rice, where will raise seedlings, move seedlings, after planting, drought does not seek water, waterlogging does not dredge, there is no dung soil, and no cultivation, one is in the sky. Su Ziyuan shook his head and sighed, "During the years that the first monarch was in Yongzhou, he had to urge the people of Yongzhou to cultivate and fertilize several times, but the people's habits were lazy and they could not be reversed. Even the officials in the government advised that as long as the taxes were paid in full, why bother. ”

Speaking of farming in Guangxi at this time, Han Gang just shook his head when he saw it, he had never seen such rice planted. I planted it directly in the field, and I didn't say that I wanted to plant seedlings. No ditches, no fertilizer, no weeds in the field, everything depends on God. When you want to start planting, as long as you burn a wasteland, you can't even see much ploughing - you must know that there are many buffaloes in Guangxi, and the people will kill cattle to celebrate, and the government can't prohibit it, and Jiangxi merchants come to Guangxi to sell cattle back every year.

"The northern climate is bad, and if you don't work hard, you have to go hungry for a year. The south is fertile with water and soil, and even if there is no cropping, it can still last for a year. The water and soil are different, and the human feelings are different. Han Gang also sighed, "If it weren't for the current difficulty, my order would be the same as Ling Zun's, and no one would take care of it." ”

sighed for the people of Guangxi for a while, Han Gang was excited again, and there was still a lot to do: "All the field books in Yongzhou have been burned, thirty or forty thousand people have died, and many fields have become borderless. At the moment, in order to save the emergency, I am planting and harvesting all the seeds, and I don't care who owns the fields, but after this harvest, I have to reorganize them. You have to do this......

Because the state government was burned down, the land deeds, house deeds, tax books, property books and other documents and archives stored in the cabinet of the government were destroyed. These books are the basis of the rule of the state. In order to re-establish the administrative system, it is not enough to rely on the copies stored in the Transit Mission, which must be rebuilt.

Su Ziyuan arched his hand: "I don't dare to shirk the matter." Although he is a military judge in Guizhou, the Yongzhou registration book was burned, and it was Su Mian who set it on fire, no matter what happened to the Qing Dynasty, Su Ziyuan thought that he had the obligation to restore it again.

got up and sent Su Ziyuan out, Han Gang looked at his back and thought to himself, the next governor of Yongzhou City should have a place.

The affairs of government affairs have been dealt with, and there are also many things to be handled by Han Gang in medical affairs.

Han Gang issued a dry order before, to transport the corpses out of the city, clean up the city, ensure the water source, and use lime for disinfection, after so many measures, the soldiers and civilians still inevitably got sick. The climate of Yongzhou is too special, making it difficult for the soldiers from the north to endure such weather for a long time, and the residents of Yongzhou City, after a catastrophe, are afraid of starvation, and their physical fitness has dropped significantly.

The number of patients is increasing. Most of them are diarrhea, but there are also cases where it progresses to more serious dysentery. Han Gang could only guarantee that they would be provided with enough light salt water, and the medicinal materials were extremely lacking.

Han Gang was very troubled by this, and he hoped that Zhang Dian could transport the medicinal materials earlier. Otherwise, without medicine, Han Gang can only let the bedridden injured and sick rely on their physical strength and resistance to survive.

"I wonder how long it will be?"

"What?" Han Gang looked down at the official document in his hand, raised his eyes and asked, I don't know when, Li Xin walked into the room.

"Medicinal herbs!" Li Xin was a little anxious, he said for a long time, but Han Gang didn't seem to hear it.

Several commanders under Li Xin have experienced many battles, and in each battle, the number of casualties is very small, but after several accumulations, when calculated in proportion, the number is very frightening. Especially in the sanatorium, there is no medicine and can only be poured with salt water to wash the stomach and intestines, what kind of treatment is this, "Master Zhang is almost here, doesn't it mean that he is coming over with medicinal herbs and Lei Jian's team of medical officers?" ”

Han Gang lowered his head and looked at the small characters as small as a fly's head on the official documents, and the densely packed numbers were the daily income and expenditure of the army today,—— most of them only had expenditures, and there were no harvests - there was no food or wealth in the treasury of Yongzhou, and Su Mian's scattered wealth was clean enough that he didn't let the Jiaozhi people get a penny and a half. However, after Han Gang entered the city, he could only rub his forehead violently in the face of the situation of sitting and eating the mountain.

It took a long time for him to react, look up and ask, "Medicinal herbs?" Yesterday's news is that it has arrived in Xiangzhou, and if you go fast, it will be in these two or three days. ”

………………

After receiving the news of Yongzhou's victory, Zhang Dian immediately set off for the south. Along the way, they were all amazed by Han Gang's success.

If he had led the army by himself, he would never have gone as fast as Han Gang. Maybe you won't be able to save the people of Pennsylvania. Without the record of annihilating thousands of Guangyuan soldiers, it would not be so easy to convince Huang Jinman. If you don't persuade Jinman to surrender, not only will Kunlun Pass not be able to get it, but you can even sit back and watch Li Changjie slaughter Yongzhou.

Zhang Dian dared to take risks and dare to work hard, but he didn't think that he could do what Han Gang had done this time. Although he was worried about Han Gang in Guizhou, if he stood in Han Gang's position, he would make the same decision in many things, and he might even be bolder than Han Gang. But he didn't have a friendship with Su Mian, and the small Guizhou military judgment couldn't affect his command, so he wouldn't go south at the beginning, but had to be considerate of his subordinates.

All the way to Yongzhou City, Han Gang led the generals in the city to greet him.

Zhang Dian immediately congratulated him, "With 800 as tens of thousands, and 100,000 with 1,000, Yukun uses soldiers, which can be described as unpredictable." ”

"It's not the power of Han Gang alone, with the backing of the bachelor, and the death force of the generals, and then the righteous people are like-minded, so that we can win." Han Gang pulled Zhang Dian to the city: "In this battle, Jiaozhi lost his troops and lost his generals, and his military strength was greatly reduced. I don't know what the Bachelor is arguing? ”

"What do you think of Yukun?" Zhang Dan asked rhetorically.

"Now in Jiaozhi Country, the young lord is in charge, and the woman is in power, if there is no support from Li Changjie, how can he force the mother of the country to be killed? Now that Li Changjie has been defeated, many of his cronies have been damaged. Those who were afraid of its power and prestige in the past must be ready to move. If the king does not arrive, they still have time to rectify the country, but if the Chinese army presses the border, there will inevitably be chaos in the country. ”

What Yukun said is exactly what the foolish brother thinks. I heard that the country of Jiaozhi used politics and cruelty to the people. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. The Li family has been stealing from Jiaozhou for more than a year, and the people are suffering. Meng Ke Youyun 'The south and the north are resentful, the east is conscripted and the west is resentful, Xi is the queen me? 'How can you let the people of Nanjiao suffer from the Li family again. The king should hang the people and save them from fire and water. Zhang Dian leaned forward slightly and stared at Han Gang, "I don't know what you think of Yukun?" ”

Han Gang sneered, and slowly recited the sentence in the Book of Poetry: "Vote for me with papaya, and repay it with Qiongju." Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao. Vote for me with Mu Li, and repay it with Qiongjiu. Bandit retribution, always think it is good......"
