Chapter 422: People have good and bad luck
'Spare you?' Hearing this guy's slurred speech and begging for mercy, Xiaohu was on fire in his heart. The pen and the fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info saw that the magnitude of the stone was slightly weakened, and the people were stopped, and they stepped forward, and those people begged you for mercy at the beginning, did you spare them? At the moment, I didn't continue to talk nonsense with this guy, and continued to go on the road with the prisoner car.
'Caught!' Cui Dan was a little incredulous, "I actually caught it so quickly." After receiving that the Shence Army escorted the prisoner to Yangzhou, Cui Dan was still a little incredible, why was it so fast? Even he, the envoy of the Huainan Festival, and the head of the Huainan region, can't do anything, how can these people who have come from afar to get the divine army catch people so quickly? It's amazing, even if you can ambush those thieves before, it's all incredible.
'Xiaohu, they did a good job', things have to go through, Li Chen, who is far away in Chang'an, knows better than the Huainan Jiedu envoy, the whole thing, Xiaohu and they have written a report, and the military department has stored it.
However, the military department is only one of them, and I don't know the second. Xiaohu, they didn't set traps so smoothly and let those fire thieves take the initiative to jump in, and they had been going around for a long time.
Through analysis, Li Chengyi analyzed the location where the gang of fire thieves often committed crimes, and caught their whereabouts. These flare thieves are cunning and often change locations, here today, and there tomorrow. However, no matter how you change it, it will always be that range.
In this way, Xiaohu and they will be ambushed. After a few days of shopping, I finally got this group of fire thieves out.
But it almost made them run.
will be discovered by the boss, according to the results of the interrogation afterwards, it is the Shence Left Army that is well-trained, but it was discovered by this boss that it is not right, the pace is too neat, a group of biao teachers and chasers, how can there be such a neat pace. In addition, the whole team was too solemn, and he didn't notice it when he was far away, but when he got closer, he found that this team was too quiet, not like an ordinary caravan at all.
Although in order to escape the checkpoint and evade taxes, the caravan will not be like shopping, but it is by no means as quiet as Xiaohu.
In the end, they will be caught, mainly because there are many Xiaohu, on the one hand, they are disguised as smuggling caravans, and there are not too many people. There are too many people, so scared that the fire thief doesn't dare to appear, what should I do.
So, it was simply regarded as training, and some people would spread out on the front road, which was considered scout training and mountain training, but I didn't expect to catch people.
This is part of the Ministry of War's knowledge, and these will be filed. This will be used as an example of warfare for future generations to learn. What the Ministry of War didn't know was how Xiaohu and they could analyze the location of this group of thieves. It's a brocade coat.
Li Chen regarded the crusade against the fire thieves as the training of the newly recruited Shence Left Army. On the one hand, it is for training, and on the other hand, these fire thieves are too rampant, just to kill their majesty.
However, without intelligence support, Xiaohu and the others arrived on the ground, their eyes were completely dark, how to arrest people? People don't look at you at all. Looking through the place to find these traces of firelight thieves? Yes, yes, but there's a good chance that the message will leak out.
Not to mention the leakage, if you give Xiaohu them false information and deceive them all over the place, Xiaohu will become a laughing stock at best, and the prestige of the court will be low, and at worst, the perineum will be unfamiliar with the terrain, and they will be ambushed and suffer heavy losses.
Like this time, Chang'an only wrote a letter to the Huainan Jiedu envoy to explain this matter, so as not to cause tension in the Huainan Jiedu, and a military horse of the imperial court suddenly appeared in the territory, of course, it must be explained.
Before Huainan could help anything, the news leaked. They just don't know how many people are coming and when they will arrive, the only thing they know is that these people are from Chang'an and are here to fight the fire thieves.
It's not that he doesn't believe in Huainan Jiedu envoy Cui Dan, but he doesn't believe in his subordinates. The vast majority of the fire thieves are locals, and even some thieves, and there is also the support of local wealthy families behind them. Their relationship is intertwined, and you and Ben don't know if the officials under you are relatives of Gen's gang.
Fortunately, Jinyi's influence in Jiangnan, especially Yangzhou, has increased a lot, and more importantly, various eyeliners have increased a lot. As the saying goes, the car and boat shop should be killed if you are not guilty. Nowadays, these people are not in the world, everyone should be killed, many people have been absorbed and become the periphery of brocade, and some are people in brocade, and they deserve it.
That is, because of the large number of eyeliners, Xiaohu will not touch the dark with their eyes, and when they get to the place, they lose local support, and they become blind and deaf. Being able to lock down the boss's hiding place is also a product of this kind of extensive eyeliner.
'It's on, it's on, this Wu Nianchun, his hands and feet are still so fast. A commotion woke up Li Chen, the voice came from the front of the hall, Li Chen stepped out of the hall, and said with a smile, "Is it on?" Very good, reward. ''Thank you, saints. As soon as Li Chen said reward, someone rewarded the first little slave who lit a fire, rewarded him with three silks and a golden bowl.
Today is Qingming, yesterday was cold food, the Jiangnan area is already in spring, and the Chang'an area is a little slower, but it is also a lot warmer, making people feel that spring has arrived.
Today, it is a custom to spread fire in the palace. Qingming has to get used to it, and this heavenly palace wants to pass on the new fire of this year.
These little slaves are responsible for making fires, and the way is to drill wood to make fires. Each person has a set of tools to use to make a fire. It's not on TV or movies, stupidly using a wooden stick, holding it with both hands, desperately drilling. This ensures that your hands will catch fire before they catch fire.
Drill wood on top of the elm to make fire, and the most gentleman will be rewarded. It's the lucky one just now. Then, I saw the little slaves, using the elm wood they had just brought to make a fire, to catch the freshly lit flames, and after taking the fire, they went out of the palace.
Li Chen looked at the little slaves, holding torches, as if they were far away. This is to pass the new fire to the officials of the Beijing Division, and if they can receive the officials, they will regard it as an honor, stick the torch at the door, and tell others that their own family also has weight, and Li Chen has no intention of making an exception.
He continued to think about what had just happened. Xiaohu will continue to fight in the Jiangnan area to fight the fire thieves. Constantly train the troops, and by the way, pacify the place.
The leader of the thieves who was caught, after being caught and replaced, kept shouting who betrayed him, as if he didn't take into account that he had missed his whereabouts at all, and with his cooperation, he should be able to quickly exterminate the fire thieves rampant in the Jiangnan area. He was thinking about something else.
This group of thieves, they usually have the identity of tea farmers. It's not fake, they really know how to grow tea. will be a fire thief, and he will be forced.
Because the tea tax has to be overcollected, many places have set up private checkpoints, and the whole vehicle deducts the merchants to get tea, and even they don't know how to protect the tea, so they pile it up in the open air and let it rain. This discouraged the merchants, but the business still had to be done, so smugglers became popular. Sometimes they manage to ship the tea out and sell it themselves, and more often than not, someone else buys it.
Smuggling, naturally, will not take the avenue, and because of the topographical factors, most of the tea-producing areas are on the hills or mountains, and the trading place may be a flat place in the middle, which naturally forms a town. There will also be a lot of small roads around, which is naturally convenient for them to smuggle.
It is convenient for smuggling, and it has also become a good place for easy black and black. All smugglers will bring a figure such as a smuggler or a guardian. Like the Age of Discovery, can you afford to be a pure merchant? No. Every ship will have some force, and when they can grab a handful, they won't mind changing jobs.
It's the same with Chinese smugglers, sometimes they're robbed, sometimes they're robbed. In addition, they have to confront the government of Cha Zhide, they come and go, their courage is fattened, they have no fear of the government, and their hearts are bigger. Tea is no longer smuggled, and it is relatively fast to grab.
Of course, this is not what Li Chen said, they were also forced. Li Chen saw another factor, like many places now, there are more people and less land. Tea is also needed by people to grow it, and it also needs land. They grew up in the tea mountains, and they didn't know anything but to grow tea, and they had no land to plant, so they were idle.
It seems that it is time for the agrarian reform to begin. Li Chen said to himself, he has been on the throne for two years now. The man is also close to forty. He noticed that recently, his little belly was up. felt that the Tang Dynasty would not be finished in a short time, and he seemed to have lost that urgency, and wanted to do everything he had to do.
On the one hand, he didn't want to learn like the Hundred Days Restoration, his butt was on fire, and he tried his best to hurry, hoping to change all the shortcomings at once.
But, when he thought about it, he didn't know how long he would live. He is almost the longest emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the past few decades. He has not been on the throne for the longest time, but as an emperor, he is the oldest, and several emperors have not lived to his age.
His position is almost just waiting for him. Shengsheng survived several juniors, and even juniors younger than him, but he changed his position.
In terms of average life expectancy, it is not surprising that he will die next year. Although he felt that he was very good, it was unlikely that he would hang up in the past two years, although he recruited many Taoist priests into the palace, but he did not take pills with Ben.
I have a normal routine every day, exercise every day, and don't drink too much. It's not like ordinary people, who are malnourished and don't dare to look at them when they are sick. It stands to reason that he could live a long time.
However, there are unforeseen circumstances, people have good and bad luck, the medical treatment in the Tang Dynasty is not as developed as in later generations, and later generations often hear the news of sudden death, God knows how much he can increase the average life expectancy of these Tang emperors.
It's been a while since the tax reform, and it's time to burn the fire. Li Chen decided to start with Datang's agricultural production, but he still had some things to do.
Since his accession to the throne, he has recruited many Taoist priests into the palace and asked them to begin to discuss the unification of Taoist scriptures and the unification of sects. After two years of quarreling every day, now, I finally quarreled a version that everyone could accept. He's going to check it out.
