Chapter 222: Ulju Drum Tower
While everyone was greeting, Xiao Yi's hundreds of sergeants were still standing solemnly outside, only the horses that were riding at night did not close their ranks from time to time, and their appearance made the officers and soldiers of the state city whisper. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
There seems to be some breathtaking momentum on the body, and there is a bloodthirsty smell hidden in that momentum, which is the power that has been unconsciously revealed after a long time of fighting around.
Just looking at the past, it made these old soldiers and ruffian soldiers in the state city frightened, and these state officials in front of them also had a feeling of palpitations, and everyone was secretly surprised by Xiao Yi's strength.
Bai Chong'an, the previous leader, did not have such a powerful family, Bai Chongan only had more than 100 familymen, but Xiao Yi's family had more than 500 people, which was more than all the officers and soldiers in the state city.
At this time, Li Erniu said with a smile: "My lord, the saddle horse is tired, and the lower officials and others have already held a banquet for the adults in the drum tower to catch the wind and wash the dust, let's go into the city." ”
The general Zhou Ding and Yuan Shaogong have been squeezing back and forth for a long time to compete for the position on Xiao Yi's side, and then Zhou Ding squeezed Yuan Shaogong aside, and stepped forward with a smile: "Yes, my lord, the craftsmanship of the proprietress of this drum tower is wonderful. ”
Yuan Shaogong was squeezed aside and was unhappy, and muttered: ", I think you miss the appearance of the boss lady, and people don't look down on you." ”
Zhou Ding still followed Xiao Yi with a smile, Yuan Shaogong's words should not be heard, Xiao Yi looked at Zhou Ding's appearance, and already understood where he was last night.
As Xiao Yi walked in front first, a group of state officials surrounded Xiao Yi and approached the city.
……
There were already a lot of people gathered on the east side of the gate, and they looked at Xiao Yi and his soldiers and horses at this time, all pointing at him.
"I heard that today's new Lord of Ethics is going to take office, and he is so young, I'm afraid his appearance is less than twenty-five, right?"
"Yes, my bear is twenty-two years old this year and still has nothing to do all day, so I know that I can go to spend all day drinking, if only I could have half of the integrity of adults!"
There was another sound of amazement.
"Hey, these are the Yong'an Army that has won a great victory in suppressing thieves, I heard that the Taiyuan Mansion of the Lord of Ethics is a hundred thieves?!"
Everyone was amazed, and one of them suddenly said, "No, how did I hear that it was a thousand levels." ”
", it's obviously two thousand!"
This group of people was noisy, and suddenly there was a sound of neat steps in front, and the official boots of the soldiers of the Yong'an Army stepped on the bluestone street, making a sound of 'kicking and kicking', mixed with the sound of iron armor leaves, and passed in front of these people.
They immediately forgot about the previous quarrel, and all of them looked fierce, like the original officers and soldiers, all of them looked no different from the poor soldiers, but this also gave them a lot of security.
"It's good that the Yong'an army has arrived, I heard that the Yong'an army has won all the bandits, and the horse thieves who have fought everywhere have fled in anticipation, and they are sitting in the state city, it seems that the future days can be peaceful!"
A man said nervously: "Hey, guys, I can hear from Peach Blossom Castle, there has long been a waiver of equal land, and every family has at least twenty acres of land!" ”
Everyone was surprised, and a wife sneered: "If you don't plant seeds and cultivate cattle, what's the use of exempting the land from taxation, it's not that you can't grow things." ”
A few more people nodded: "Yes, what the eldest lady said is reasonable!" ”
The man before cleared his throat: "You don't know over there, there are waterwheels built everywhere, there are several deep wells available in every house, ploughing cattle can be borrowed from the government, and seeds and other things have also been distributed!" ”
"Wow!"
"Really, there is such a good thing?"
Everyone was a little unconvinced, and at this time, a person who had just returned from the field put down his flat burden and praised the majesty of the Yong'an Army.
"I just came back from Peach Blossom Castle, what this little brother said is true, it's true."
Everyone was a little happy when they heard this, with the protection of such strong officers and soldiers, if the government was really like this, then the harvest of the coming year would be enough, and they all looked forward to living the same life as the people of Yong'an Fort.
Xiao Yi led more than 500 veterans into the city, which caused a great sensation to the people of the state city, and now they all hope that the Yong'an Army is the same as the rumors, even if it is different.
As long as they don't go too far, it is enough to protect themselves and their families when they need it, this is what most people in the state town think, and their requirements are so simple.
Listening to the sounds of words and exclamations around them, the sergeants on foot all held their heads high, and their boots stepped on the ground with some strength, striving to make their voices more neat and loud.
Wang Dayong's night does not close because of the last bandits, it is enough for one person and two horses, they sit upright on the horse, wearing fine armor and do not squint, Zhou Baotai is like this.
He and Liu Tong rode behind Wang Dayong on one left and one right, their bodies straightened and wanted to make themselves look more powerful, and their hearts were also beautiful.
Xiao Yi and Li Erniu walked in the forefront, Li Erniu was very happy to receive this honor, some of the haze of yesterday has dissipated, and he tried his best to introduce Xiao Yi to all parts of the state city.
Xiao Yi was on the horse, he looked at everything in front of him with emotion, once upon a time, when he came here, no one cared, looking up at this prosperous city.
Now that everything is in his own hands, he has truly become the master of this place.
A group of people passed through East Street, and soon came to the intersection of four main streets, southeast and northwest, which is the center of Ulju City, and stands the famous Ulju Drum Tower, which is also the symbol of Ulju City.
Near the drum tower is full of tea shops, restaurants, inns, ready-to-wear shops and other shops, and they surround the drum tower in the middle like a starry moon.
At this time, there is an inconspicuous rice shop on the opposite side of the street, with the name 'Guihe'.
This is Lifang's rice shop, the last time Xiao Yi came here to buy rice, he left in a hurry, and he didn't have a good look at this neighborhood, at that time he just thought that this rice shop was very big, and now a careful comparison, the expensive and rice shops are indeed a little small in this vicinity.
The various rice shops I saw along the way, such as 'Baohe', 'Yuantai' and other rice shops, are much larger than Lifang's rice shops.
But he never forgot Lifang's help to Yong'an Fort when he led the army away, originally he had some misunderstandings about Lifang, but his impression of Lifang had changed greatly for a long time.
This time, he didn't choose to go to the drum tower first, but turned around and went to Guihe Rice Shop.
Shi Gang was looking at the people gathered on both sides with his neck stretched out his neck all the way here, naturally looking for Lifang, and when he saw Xiao Yi turning his horse's head and going there, he was also a little happy in his heart at the moment.
"This..."
Li Erniu's face was dumbfounded, shouldn't he go to the Drum Tower, why did Lord Ethics go in the opposite direction?
Those state officials didn't know where Xiao Yi wanted Wang to go, so they just stood behind with their faces at a loss, while the soldiers of the Yong'an Army did not hesitate at all.
Under the leadership of Shi Gang and a few people, he turned around and followed Xiao Yi towards Guihe rice shop, and the sound of pedaling and pacing approached this small rice shop. (To be continued.) )
