With Li Yusong's help, Liu Fan finally doesn't have to worry about food and salary. There is no good way to deal with these "captives" Liu Fan, so he can only take one step at a time, but according to Liu Fan's estimates, with the urine of those civil officials in the imperial court, I am afraid that he will not help Liu Fan solve this problem! In the end, it still depends on Liu Fan himself, so Liu Fan plans to assign these people to Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou is now in the development period, which requires a lot of manpower, although there is no surplus land to distribute to these displaced people. But factory work can also give them a way to survive. The only difficulty is that the distance is too far, and the financial and material resources consumed by the current traffic conditions are simply astronomical! The best way is to take the waterway, but now that the Yellow River is frozen, there is no way to take the waterway even if you want to.

Liu Fan had no choice but to arrange for some soldiers of the Broken Army to return to Jiaozhou with some young and middle-aged people first, as for those who were weak and weak, Liu Fan could only say sorry! After all, he didn't open a good church, and now his task has not been completed, and he can't return to Jiaozhou all, so he can only select some useful people to accept them first, and the rest of them will be sent back when he has the opportunity. Once the war resumes and Liu Fan is transferred elsewhere, Liu Fan will be powerless.

In the next few days, Liu Fan spent a lot of money to buy a batch of food and warm clothes from the gentry of Wu'an. But these things are still a drop in the bucket for more than 60,000 displaced people. 60,000 people have to rely on Liu Fan for relief, which is also a huge burden for Liu Fan, and distributing food in vain is easy to cause the inertia of these people, and people's habits are a very terrible thing. Once these people enjoy the days when they can eat without working, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Liu Fan.

So Liu Fan decided to implement the method of cash-for-work and find something to do for them. As time goes by, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the folk proverb says that "Laba Qi Laba goes out and freezes to death", and now Liu Fan has a deep understanding of this, the winter at the end of the Ming Dynasty is too cold, and now the temperature has dropped to the extent that the water has dropped into ice, and even the Yellow River has frozen, so it can be seen that the temperature is already very low. Such low temperatures are no longer suitable for living in tents. Therefore, Liu Fan ordered the male homeless people to go up the mountain to cut wood to build their own houses and camps and those of the Broken Army, and the women were responsible for sewing clothes to protect them from the cold. Under the supervision of the Broken Army, tens of thousands of displaced people began to be busy nervously, and the outside of Wu'an County almost became a large construction site, and houses rose from the ground under the efforts of the displaced people.

As the problem of eating for the displaced people was solved, Liu Fan's heart gradually stabilized. But at this moment, Sun Liang suddenly came to report and said, "Handsome! Recently, due to lack of food, there have been many vicious snatching incidents among the homeless! According to the reports from his soldiers, there were also quite a few casualties! ”

Liu Fan was quite surprised and said, "We give a lot of food!" Although it can't compare to the Broken Army! But at least it's better than when they were rogues! You can't eat too much twice a day, but you won't be hungry! How can such a thing happen? ”

Sun Liang smiled bitterly and said, "These homeless people used to follow the rogues everywhere to plunder their property, so the law of respect for the strong has gradually formed among the homeless. Some able-bodied homeless people still retain some of the vices of the homeless, and they are accustomed to robbing when they have nothing, and they used to rob the landlords, but now they rob the old and weak. In just three days, there were nearly 100 vicious robberies and rapes of women among the displaced people. ”

Liu Fan was furious: "Repeated teachings do not change!" It's all taken prisoner and still so arrogant! I don't think they want to live anymore! Immediately send soldiers to arrest all these scumbags, and call the homeless people for a public trial! ”

Under Liu Fan's order, the captivity army quickly dispatched to surround the camp and arrest all those who committed the crime. After that, Liu Fan convened a meeting of all the displaced people, announced the crimes of these people on the spot, and sentenced them to death.

In view of such a bad incident, Liu Fan felt that it was urgent to deal with the law and order problem of the displaced people. After convening the officers to discuss, Liu Fan decided to redivide the displaced people according to the armor protection system. Liu Fan, a 60,000 homeless people, was divided into six camps, and one camp appointed one battalion officer and three adjutants. The remaining people are in accordance with the system of protecting the first household, with the household as the unit, and the head of the household, ten households as the first, and the first ten as the chief, and the chief of the ten households. Joint insurance households, the implementation of joint sitting. If there is a problem in any household, all the people will be held accountable. In addition, Liu Fan also sent a 1,000-strong army to form a patrol to patrol and monitor the situation in each camp day and night to prevent similar things from happening again.

Under such a double insurance, the vicious momentum that had just risen among the displaced people was suddenly suppressed. The common people in China are still very simple, Liu Fan gave them food, clothing, and a chance to live, so most of the displaced people were full of gratitude to Liu Fan from the heart. Those who were executed were only an isolated case, most of them were hob meat who had followed the rogue for a long time, and the long-term plundering career had completely aroused the greed in their hearts, and these people were basically "hopeless"! That's why Liu Fan didn't hesitate to execute these black sheep with a heavy hand. Without the encouragement of these people, the displaced people gradually returned to calm, law and order improved, and everything developed in a stable direction.

Liu Fan was busy dealing with the matter of the prisoners, and the Liukou was not idle, since Liu Fan withdrew his troops back to Wu'an, the Liukou had no constraints, and immediately seized the opportunity to withdraw from the Shexian area. Under Zhang Xianzhong's arrangement, his son Zhang Kewang secretly went to Wang Pu's residence in Cishan County with several carts of gold and silver treasures.

To say that this Wang Pu set off earlier than Liu Fan, and the distance was much closer than Liu Fan, but he arrived later than Liu Fan. And after arriving in Cixian County, I didn't do anything serious, but I didn't do less to rob places. Cixian County was called Cizhou in ancient times, and it is the birthplace of the famous Cizhou kiln. Cizhou kiln is the largest folk kiln system in ancient northern China, and it is also a famous Han folk porcelain kiln. Since the Northern Song Dynasty, Cizhou's white ground and black color porcelain have been famous for time. When they arrived at such a treasure land, Wang Pu and the others were like rats entering the rice warehouse, and they would not come out without a full meal.

Under the guise of Wang Pu and others in Cixian County to continue to exterminate the Liukou, they set up names everywhere, looted land, and plundered all kinds of treasures and porcelain. Wang Pu and others ate meat, they drank soup, and when they arrived in Cixian County, they plundered porcelain, looted property and grain, and Cixian County suffered unspeakably under the scourge of these people. However, because they were from Beijing, even the local officials did not dare to provoke them, so they had to turn a blind eye and let them do what they did. (To be continued.) )
