**The scorching rì at the end of summer is even more scorching
There has been no rain, and the drought that has lasted for more than half a year has not been alleviated in any way, and most of the millet seedlings in the ground have withered and died
Yang He, a fifty-three-year-old farmer in Yewang County who knew a few words, squatted on his ground, stroked a completely withered millet seedling, and sighed softly
There is a great drought in Guanzhong, and Hanoi is also a drought-stricken area, and this year, Yang He's family has been doing their best to carry water in the morning and evening, but the corn harvest in the land can only be 12/12 at most
Frustration and sadness are inevitable, but compared to disasters like the past, Yang He did not despair, but there was a trace of happiness in his heart
I heard that the villagers of Wen County, a neighboring county, regretted that when Dong Zhuo moved the capital four years ago, he failed to listen to the words of the eldest prince of the Sima family, and took refuge in Liyang, Wei County! The eighth prince of the Sima clan in Wenxian County moved out, but he had to avoid trouble, and he took pity on the small people in Hanoi who were left behind, and the Kwantung Coalition Army garrisoned Hanoi when he was fighting against Dong, how many rebels plundered and killed the people? After that, the cruelty of the Hun cavalry was even worse!
In this troubled era, it can be called a fluke to be able to survive, but what is this natural disaster now?
and the land rented from the Lord's family for planting this year has been guaranteed by the new Jiao Envoy, and can be fully credited; What he Yang He is most grateful to is the new order issued by the county government, after a common person like him has a new household registration, not only will all taxes and forced labor be exempted this year, but the poor family can still borrow grain from the county to survive the disaster
I don't know how many people will be saved by this decree of the new envoy in Hanoi, and Jiao Envoy Jun is many times stronger than the original Zhang Envoy Jun!
What's more, after hearing that after the field was re-measured, a poor family like myself could share twenty acres of land!
After struggling in troubled times, Yang He's family still has six people, originally only seven and a half acres of thin land, and each year still needs to rent about ten acres from the main family, fortunately for a year, the rent and taxes are removed, and it is barely enough for the family to chew, if this time can really get twenty acres of land, there is no need to rent land again!
This is the policy of Henan County, relative to the half-belief of others, Yang He, who read a few books in the private school of the main family when he was a child, and listened to the past businessmen talk about Henan's actions, immediately knew the truth
If you can borrow grain to survive the disaster, you can have 20 acres of land! Great happiness immediately washed away the sorrow of the year of disaster!
Originally, every time he passed by the more than 700 acres of fields of the main family, Yang He would be envious, but now he will never again
What about 700 acres of land? After that, he Yang He will never take another look!
Yang He is not greedy, although there are many acres of 700 acres of land, his family can't finish planting them anyway, he can have 20 acres, and he is content!
Hanoi's change of heaven and earth this time is undoubtedly worth rejoicing for people like Yang He
Now he is in the ground, waiting for someone
A few years ago, I heard that someone in the pavilion said that the county officials of Yewang County went to the countryside to measure the fields and went to the pavilion today
The other villagers, including their two sons, couldn't stand the scorching roasting and had returned home first, but Yang He still patiently insisted on staying in the ground
Aren't they the bitterness of being a bad thing? What is this compared to what is going to be obtained?
Thinking like this, Yang He carefully inspected the field again, his steps were extremely light, like a cat preparing to hunt mice, every step was accurate, and he would not step on any millet seedlings that could still be saved
In the distance, there was already a commotion
Yang He was overjoyed in his heart, the county magistrate has arrived?
Looking up, when he found the source of the noise, Yang He's joy gradually dispersed
The voice came from near Yang He's village, a small team led by several young men in fresh clothes and angry horses
Yang He knew that they were the sons of the Yang family and their subordinates, not the county officials he expected
It's all this hour, the rì head is poisonous, and the sons of the main family are still going to hunt?
Yang He was a little puzzled, but this was not something that a character like him could ask about, seeing the young masters of the main family coming, it was getting closer and closer, and Yang He was busy bowing his lowly head on the left side of the road
As usual, the group ignored him and went on their own
Yang He raised his head and continued to inspect the millet seedlings in the ground while waiting
Rì's head tilted to the west a little, and after more than an hour, there was still no trace of the county official, although Yang He had a hat on his head, but the clothes on his body had already been soaked with sweat, clinging to the flesh, and it was uncomfortable
Yang He also began to be a little anxious, but fortunately, there seemed to be another voice, and he hurriedly looked up into the distance: the county officials were still gone, but the sons of the main family had returned from afar
You can't hunt, right? In addition to being disappointed, in the deepest part of his heart, Yang He was a little gloated, but when the young masters of the main family approached, he was still busy lowering his head again
The young master of the main family led their subordinates, but Shi Shiran walked by, and no one paid attention to Yang He in the ground, but this time, under the scorching heat, Yang He actually felt a different chill!
Raising his head, the last member of the line suddenly turned around and grinned at Yang He
Yang He was startled by this, and at the same time, he also saw clearly that no one in the family tribe had the harvested prey in their hands, but many instruments and clothes were stained with blood!
A group of people walked to the village, but Yang He in the ground felt a little uneasy, and then looked at the county officials who were looking forward to the pavilion, but there was still no trace at all
The sons and the tribe had already gone far, Yang He was not in a hurry, and finally jumped onto the road and went to the pavilion
Does the county magistrate have to change his hexagram? Or is something delayed somewhere else?
Yang He walked more and more urgently, as if something was driving him in the dark, and in the end, he actually ran quickly
After traveling all the way for more than ten miles, when the distant pavilion had already come into sight, Yang He suddenly stopped, and boundless fear and despair enveloped his whole body in an instant, draining every trace of strength in his body
In the fields beside the road, there were more than ten corpses lying horizontally
In this troubled world, corpses are not terrible, Yang He has seen many more corpses piled together than this
What made him so frightened and desperate was that among these corpses, in addition to the nearby villagers, there were also Benting Qiangfu and the county official he had been looking forward to but had not arrived, that was the one who had served as the county assistant of this county a long time ago, and Yang He had looked at him from afar in the county seat
These people are dead, will I still have my twenty acres of land?
Looking at these corpses in front of him blankly, I don't know how long it took, Yang He suddenly opened his mouth and sang a few lines of "Poems" that he had learned: "Swinging God, the people are the God of the disease, his life is more than the people are born to the people, and his life is not the beginning, and the end is rare"
Xu Huang's Dangkou army defeated Zhang Yang and Liyi in a battle, the army was mighty, and the county was conquered to govern Huai County
The battle income was reduced by more than 20,000 soldiers, Zhang Yangjun's combat strength was extremely low, and the Koji Yi Department was acceptable, Xu Huang and others carefully selected, and they had 3,000 soldiers
Among these soldiers, the crossbow soldiers abandoned before the escape of Koji Yi were the most outstanding, and their troops were known as "Xiandeng" under the command of Koji Yi, with nearly 1,000 people, and among the 3,000 soldiers of Xinna, only the Xiandeng army picked 600 Xu, which has been fully supplemented into Cao Xìng's shè sound school
According to the new military system set by Deng Ji, the two armies of Dangkou and Huya are now dissatisfied with the formation, but Henan is stable, but Hanoi is turbulent, when Xu Huang reported for duty, Deng Ji ordered all the soldiers obtained this time to be accepted by the Dangkou army, and ordered Xu Huang to garrison Hanoi
At the beginning of July, Deng Ji, Tian Feng and others discussed Chang'an, and raised Jiao Touch's attention to the fact that Hanoi Taishou once again faced the princes with such a fait accompli, although the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City was resentful, he only agreed
Deng Jixin got the land of Hanoi, at the beginning of his land was afraid of Henan's military might, and it could still be called peaceful, but when the policy of the fourth-class people and the matter of borrowing grain spread, the small people were excited, and the big people were terrified
With the meaning of Deng Ji and Tian Feng, Hanoi is new, and it is necessary to slowly plan it with the policy of Huairou, and slowly manage the Jiao Touch when he first arrived in Hanoi, and he can also adapt measures to local conditions
At the end of August, the Yang clan of Yewang County was the first to rebel, and before Xu Huang's army arrived, Pinggao, Yixian, Qinshui, Wenxian, Heyang, Jixian, Zhouxian, Chaoge, Boxian, and Dangyin were all surrounded by thieves
These thieves were all organized by clan tribes, with three or four thousand men and horses, and only four or five hundred widows, and the people of the time called them "clan thieves"
When the Hanoi thieves rebelled, they attacked the cities and plundered the counties in various places, killed the officials, and slaughtered the people There are 18 counties in Hanoi County
These thieves are all from their hometowns, the roads are familiar, and they have each other's protection, and they are good at hiding, and some are thieves when they come out, and those who return to them are people
When the thieves first started, Xu Huang dismantled the Dangkou army, and all of them used the school and Qu Si to quell the chaos, but if there was a Dangkou army, its realm was peaceful, and when Jīng rode away, the thieves were troubled again, Xu Huang and others had little effect, but the chaos had become more and more intense
At the beginning of September, Deng Ji ordered Hanoi to suspend the law of the fourth-class people, but the situation was uncontrollable: dozens of large and small sect thieves in Hanoi pushed Zhang Sheng as the leader, imitating the example of the Taihang Black Mountain thieves, and did not fight hard with the Dangkou army, only gathered or scattered, captured the county seat when gathered, and plundered the township when dispersed, less than a month, except for the county Zhihuai County was still in the hands of the Dangkou army, the remaining 17 counties were lost
Fortunately, Yuan Benchu had already led the army north at this time, and joined forces with Xian Yufu, Yan Rou, and Wuhuan Wang to fight against Gongsun Zhan, and had no time to take care of Hanoi; Zhang Ji conquered Nanyang, the war had begun, Li Dao and others were attached to Chang'an, and it was difficult to invade Henan; Meng De and Lü Bu fought for Yanzhou, and due to the locust plague, the troops were temporarily dismissed, and the surrounding strong neighbors were busy with their own affairs, so Deng Ji was able to transfer the Huya army into Hanoi in an attempt to calm the chaos
