In the afternoon, the horse team escorted three carriages and returned to Yonghetun; From a distance, you can see the black smoke rising from the tun, and everyone's heart is suppressed and impatient, and they are constantly struggling.

Especially Xiao Ye, who was in a bad mood to the extreme, and now he regretted that he had easily left Shiguantun.

Before entering the tunzi, I saw a sergeant in the gap in the tun wall, with a few military households collecting the corpses, and a small pile of knives, guns, and round shields were piled up on the ground.

Lu Yidao walked very decisively, the wounded who could be taken away were taken away, the seriously injured horse thieves who could not be taken away, and the injured war horses were killed on the spot by an arrow, and the ruthlessness during the period can be seen.

Xiao Ye, who thought that the Tartar was coming again, saw Ma Gui, and then knew that it was the horse thief who took advantage of the emptiness of the Tunli troops and attacked here with a hollow eye, and the last fire almost burned the Tunzi.

Thinking about the heavily guarded soldiers at the gate of Gansu Town, Xiao Ye couldn't help but snort coldly, "Rest tonight, prepare to evacuate tomorrow," where to evacuate, no need to say it, everyone understands it in their hearts.

Back at the Baihu Office, Xiao Ye personally carried the two wives and concubines back to the house, put them on the soft couch on the kang, and after explaining a few words, he walked out of the door and went to see the injured Ning Zhongyang and them.

Mei'er's almost limp body, Lena's broken right arm, the wounded sergeant, and a row of corpses lying on the ground in the backyard, standing in the courtyard, Xiao Ye's face was full of fatigue, and he felt that his spirit was almost about to collapse.

"Little Liuzi, you go to Gansu Town in person, find the best doctor, and come back with more knife medicine, whether it is to use the invitation or robbery, the official must see the doctor, otherwise you will not come back," his teeth squeaked, Xiao Ye took out two silver tickets and threw them to the captain of the guard.

"Humility knows," in the face of the hundred households that were about to run away at any time, Xiao Liuzi didn't dare to say more, collected the silver tickets, sorted out his weapons, found two bundles of ropes, and took the five brothers out of the horse, and ran out of the tunzi.

The iron plates of the three scouts were taken off, Ma Gui put them away, the other sergeants didn't have them, and the two maids didn't have either, but after looking at Tunzi, their relatives were gone, so they could only be placed on the flat ground in the backyard with the sergeants.

In the backyard, under the greeting of Ma Gui, the rough envoy mother-in-law piled up firewood, and the weather was too hot, so she could only refine the corpse and take it away.

When the glow disappeared on the blue brick roof, Xiao Ye personally held a torch in his hand and lit the fire to see off these veterans, recruits, and the maids at home; Their spirit cards will occupy a corner in the side hall of the Land Temple.

The military households killed by horse thieves in Tunli, Ma Gui will deal with it, Xiao Ye has no energy to take care of it, it would be good to take out some burnt silver.

casually ate a bowl of noodle soup, Xiao Ye personally brought food to Mei'er and the others, and after seeing that the two girls had eaten a little, they sat in the hall and began to write an official document to Qianhu under the candlelight.

At the open door, from time to time there are sergeants and guards, as long as they look at the calm figure of the hundred households, they can do things in their hearts, this desolate Yonghetun, as long as the hundred households do not panic, they can settle down.

Wrote an official document to Qianhu, and sent a guard to send it overnight, Xiao Ye sat in the candlelight, took out a book and looked at it quietly, while calming down the almost irrepressible resentment, while waiting for the doctor brought by Xiao Liuzi.

In the matter of rebuilding Tunzi, he not only asked for a subsidy for the silver grain population, but also proposed to build Tunzi along the Xilong River, in Laoyangkou on the north bank, where there is a large area of hilly wasteland, and it is more than enough to build a tunzi.

By the way, Xiao Ye also wanted to get compensation from the hundred households, although there was little hope, but he could add to Wang Chongli's blockage, and he didn't mind writing two more.

Yonghe Tun lives in a key traffic place, was sacked twice by the Tartars, and let the horse thieves rob and burn it, it is already a dilapidated and inauspicious place, and Xiao Ye has nothing to say when he moves others.

Of course, if the thousand households pay out of their own pockets, please command the envoy to allocate silver and grain, as long as they promise to pay for the repair of the cantonment walls and houses, and make up for the population of military households, Xiao Ye will leave half a year late at most, it depends on whether the Tartars will come this winter.

Roughly calculated, without tens of thousands of taels of silver grain, Yonghetun could not be rebuilt at all, plus population, grain, cattle and farm tools, this is a bottomless pit at all, and Wang Chongli is not so bold when I think about it.

What's more, Laoyangkou is much closer to Shiguan Tutun, and it doesn't take a day to ride a horse back and forth.

Of course, Xiao Ye didn't say a word about his attack.

Not to mention the interception and killing on the way, it has been more than a day since Yonghetun was attacked by horse thieves, and Qianhu has not reacted, which is enough to make Xiao Ye have other plans.

It is located in the middle of the gravel fort and the town of Gansu, the north is close to the mountains and the south is flat, although there are large fields, but none of them have anything to do with him; Perhaps, after the autumn harvest next year, he will not be able to buy any grain near here, so people will not sell it to him.

Since there is no benefit, he did not hesitate to give up.

Zuo Shi took a few guards to patrol the neighborhood, and Ma Gui gathered more than a dozen remaining military households, as well as a group of artisans who came to work, and found a few houses that could still live to rest.

The shop was looted and burned, Wang Yangwu took his men and went to the gravel fort after the horse thieves retreated, as for why he didn't go to Gansu Town, Xiao Ye didn't know, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

In the middle of the night, when the sound of horses' hooves was faintly heard, Xiao Ye wrapped the book in an oilcloth, stuffed it into his arms, got up and walked out of the hall; Needless to say, it's Xiao Liuzi and they are back.

Xiao Ye knew that the city gate was closed when Gansu Town, but if Xiao Liuzi couldn't get a doctor out of the city, he would be unforgivable, and spending money to raise soldiers was not just for the sake of looking good.

Soon, Xiao Liuzi's war horse appeared outside the Baihu Office, and a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi riding with him turned over and dismounted with the medical box in embarrassment, and almost sat on the ground.

The guard guarding the gate stepped forward and helped this weak middle-aged man, and was about to enter the gate, when Xiao Ye had already rushed over and grabbed the arm of the man in Tsing Yi, "But the doctor in Gansu Town?" ”

"Yes, I...."The man in Tsing Yi, who looked unhappy, nodded, and before he finished speaking, he felt that his body was halfway up, and he hurried to the front yard with the young officer; The heavy medicine box, the guards carried it and followed closely behind.

Compared with the rude military man, the doctor is not so angry, and the people give him a generous consultation fee, so he can only follow Xiao Ye.

With the presence of a doctor, Lena's broken arm was quickly ointmented and splinted, and it was not a big problem to raise it for two or three months; However, Meier's back injury was very difficult for the doctor.

"Ximen Baihu, the lady's waist is a dark injury, maybe she was hit on the backbone, fortunately she is not pregnant, otherwise," sitting on the wooden bench by the kang, the doctor quietly withdrew his hand, and touched the bones through the mattress, which was already a big taboo, but fortunately, Xiao Ye didn't care.

The wound on Mei'er's face had been wiped with spirits, and even the doctor was surprised by the effect of the medicinal powder in the medicine belt, but what he was even more surprised was that it was a weak woman, and her spine laceration was silent, and her will was quite stoic.

Under the guidance of the doctor, Xiao Ye fixed Mei'er's waist with a short splint, wrapped it with strips of cloth, and recuperated from the bone laceration for a month, and then the splint could be removed. With the combination of decoction and medicine, if nothing else, Mei'er will be able to walk around the ground at the beginning of next month.

Xiao Ye settled the two daughters, waited for the doctor to prescribe the medicine in the hall, and then stepped forward and bent over and bowed his hand, "Shidao is reckless, please don't blame Mr."

"Hehe, Baihu is eager to understand, but your subordinates, don't take the old man over the city wall in the future," the doctor got up with a smile and returned the salute, tonight he was frightened by Xiao Liuzi, plus a flying horse galloping all the way, this heart is still jumping now.

The little sixth son who was waiting on the side hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, "Please also ask Mr. for forgiveness," If it weren't for the military order of the hundred households, he wouldn't be like this, but he didn't dare to say the truth.

"It's okay, it's okay, if your relatives are in trouble, everyone is in a hurry," there was a silver ticket of two hundred taels dropped by Xiao Liuzi in the pharmacy, and the doctor naturally wouldn't take it seriously, and waved his hand.

"The old man Liu Yi is the doctor of Renhetang in Gansu Town, and if there is something in the West Gate in the future, you can send someone to go," in the face of the respectful Xiao Ye, Liu Yi couldn't have much resentment, two hundred taels of silver, he might not be able to earn it in a year, so he was naturally calm.

"Thank you, thank you Dr. Liu," Xiao Ye gratefully shook his hand, reached out and took out a pocket watch, and handed it to Liu Yi, "It's just a small gift, the right to be Xie Jin, and I hope not to see outside,"

"Huh, what is this?" The bright pocket watch suddenly made Liu Yi's eyes widen, and a burst of surprise set off on his steady face, "This is the pocket watch, it has been auctioned in the rich building,"

The value of the pocket watch, he Liu Yike has seen it, hurriedly shook his hand, and politely refused, "No merit is not accepted, Liu does not dare to ask for it, and I hope that hundreds of households will not be reluctant,"

If Liu Yi accepted it strangely, Xiao Ye just laughed at it, and he should be gagged, even if the little six sons and their night city wall were lifted, everyone would have a chance to meet in the future; But when Liu Yi knew the price of the pocket watch, he could still be unmoved, which was worthy of Xiao Ye's respect.

Even if he doesn't know medical skills, he can see that Liu Yi's ability is far inferior to Li Muchen, especially for bone injuries, ordinary doctors don't dare to judge easily; The difference between the doctor and Lang Zhong can be seen from the title.

A doctor with good character and medical skills, no matter how stupid Xiao Ye is, he knows how to win over, this is a life-saving character.

"Mr. Liu, Ximen Yijie military household, the brothers below will inevitably have disabilities in the future, please make a move, even if this pocket watch is a deposit in the future, you must accept it," Xiao Ye also set a precedent for pocket watches worth thousands of taels of silver as a deposit.

At Xiao Ye's insistence, Liu Yi carefully put the pocket watch into his arms, carefully pressed it through the placket, and his face flushed with a faint flush; This pocket watch will be a family heirloom in the future, he is a doctor who lives by his craft, and it is fake if he doesn't have a heartbeat.

Subsequently, Xiao Ye informed Liu Yi that Yonghetun was going to move out of this place and go to Laoyangkou Huodun to build a new tun, and if Renhetang wanted to move there, he would give a silver grain subsidy every year, which would never be less than the income in Gansu Town.

The pharmacy moved big, Liu Yi didn't reply immediately, and Xiao Ye didn't urge, so Xiao Liuzi took the doctor down to check and treat the other sergeants, and sent them back to Gansu Town tomorrow morning.

In the room of the hundred households, the women and children of the military households assigned by Ma Gui have already boiled a large pot of horse meat, since yesterday, Tunli has started this kind of food, green salt, shallot and some pepper, although the meat tasted average, but it has made those craftsmen who work all eat with their mouths full of oil.

There were more than 30 dead horses left by the horse thieves, more than a dozen wounded horses, and a scalper who was hacked to death.

The next day, at breakfast time, Ma Gui took the silver taels given by Xiao Liuzi and dismissed the craftsmen who came to work, and those craftsmen and military households who died in the hands of horse thieves, as long as someone proves that after the book and painting are postponed, some silver money compensation will also be issued.

For a time, those frightened people, who had eaten the large pieces of cooked meat in the bowl, praised the Ximen Baihu, each with a silver coin, carrying a large piece of horse meat given by Ma Gui on his back, and the compensation brought to the family of the deceased, and hurriedly dispersed.

Doctor Liu Yi boarded the carriage and was personally sent back to Gansu Town by Xiao Liuzi, along the way, he wanted to say something to Xiao Liuzi several times, but his mouth moved a few times, and he never said it.

The faint and special fragrance on Mellena's body, he knew it as soon as he smelled it, was the smell of musk.

The musk is spicy and warm, the gas is extremely fragrant, and the nature of running is very strong, and it has a strong effect of opening and closing the mind, which is the key medicine for awakening the mind and returning to the Su, but it also has the effect of invigorating the blood and passing through the meridian and giving birth to the next fetus; Liu Yi, who is old and mature, can see that Mei'er's two daughters have not given birth, so it is strange to wear this kind of sachet.

Say less that should be said, and resolutely don't say what shouldn't be said, Liu Yi, who had made up his mind, shook his head and left the sachet behind, as for moving the hospital to the old sheep's mouth, forget it.

Three days later, at noon, the people of the hundred households in Yonghe Tunli were noisy, and all the men, women, and children of the military households gathered the people who had taken refuge in the mountains, a total of 36 people, plus Xiao Ye and his party, packed up and prepared to set off; In this calamitous Yonghetun, Xiao Ye was so ruthless that he wanted to give up.

Five carriages of different old and new ones, two of the wounded, one loaded with captured knives and guns and armor, one with Mei'er and two daughters, and two rough maids found by Ma Guixin, and the rest with a small amount of food and materials, rough pickled horse meat with green salt; The old and young in the tun slowly drove out of the tun wall with the footsteps of the guards.

The unfinished cantonment wall, the adobe bricks were hastily abandoned before they were dry.

The last carriage was driven by Zuo Shi himself with a whip, and the reins of the war horse were tied to the back of the carriage; On the carriage, eleven small black coarse porcelain jars contained the ashes of the soldiers of the hundred households, and the ashes of the two maids were also among them.

Xiao Ye rode a high-headed war horse, did not escort his wife and concubine, but walked beside the last carriage, and he wanted to accompany these brothers who died in battle on the last part of the road; In the future, everyone will have the opportunity to meet in the Land Temple.

The team traveled less than a dozen miles to the west, and the guards who had gone to the Gravel Fort to deliver the letter returned, bringing back a reply from the Thousand Households.

Xiao Ye was not surprised, seeing Wang Qianhu's denial of changing places to rebuild Yonghetun in the letter, and a bunch of long-winded support promises in it, he didn't even have the interest to look carefully; Yonghetun was attacked, the wolf smoke was lit, the gravel fort and Gansu Town, both of them were guarding the door, and they didn't see a single sergeant coming to help, just sweeping the snow in front of the door.

There are too many lies, and no one wants to believe the truth.

Of course, as for the true intention of the thousands of households who are unwilling to let go, in Xiao Ye's opinion, it is not the thousands of fields that make trouble, I don't know if there is a share of Wang Chongli in it.

Stuffing the letter raft into the backpack on the side of the saddle, Xiao Ye waved his horsewhip, and the team continued to move, and today it must be rushed to the old sheep's mouth fire pier, and the journey must not be delayed.

If he can't see the real money taken out of the Gravel Castle, he won't stay in Yonghetun stupidly.

Although the day before yesterday they were scared enough by the horse thieves, compared with the previous two Tartars who broke through the tun wall, they were still able to stabilize their minds and help take care of the carriage.

Ximen Baihu's generous handwriting, they knew from Ma Gui's mouth, but the damn horse thief didn't give him a chance to rebuild the tunzi, and they were safer only by following Baihu; I didn't see it, the sergeants of the two flag teams were able to beat the horse thieves around, and that was the rumored Lu Yidao.

After the convoy left Yonghetun, according to the flag officer guarding the Yonghetun Huodun, he took two sergeants to show his body outside the tun, and after looking at the convoy that could not see the distance away, he turned back into the tun, flashed the torch, and lit the dilapidated tunzi again.

As the fireworks rose, the flag officer ran away with the sergeant; This time, Yonghetun has really become a blank land, and if you want to live in it, you have to tear down and build a new one.

As for the daily supply of the three fire piers of Yonghetun, Jiaokou and Xiqu, and even the daily supply of Guoziwa and Laoyangkou fire piers, Xiao Liuzi has already sent a message to Baodes to send a carriage from the rich building to supply grain, green salt and other materials, once every half a month.

Xiao Ye, who was sitting on a war horse, although his eyes were looking ahead, the scouts who kept going back and forth were not in focus at all, and even Mei'er and their carriage were just swept by; In the last carriage, one of the ashes altar contained Uncle Kun's ashes, how could he not let him lose his soul.

Although Uncle Kun doesn't often show up in front of him, knowing that Uncle Kun is in the Baihu House, waiting for him, and taking care of the arsenal for himself, Xiao Ye's heart is steady; The man was suddenly gone, and his nerves were thick enough to ease his nerves now.

After all, he is still a teenager who is not yet nineteen years old.

Xiao Ye, who was in a trance, suddenly had a spirit, his heart pounded wildly, and cold sweat broke out on his back, and Uncle Kun's vague words before he died reminded him of something.

"In the pit, someone, dead,...... Turned to ashes," Uncle Kun's vague words, Xiao Ye didn't pay attention to it at first, what was buried in the pit was a killer, and he could still feel Han Ling's blade in his sleep.

"Someone, turned to ashes?" Thinking about it in a low voice, thinking about the stone mill again, Xiao Ye couldn't help but have his hair standing on end, and his head was buzzing.

It seems to understand that the broken fragments that he threw into the stone mill may really be able to sit inside.

However, now the stone mill in Shiguantun is already his biggest hole card, if someone really has the secret of the stone mill, Xiao Ye is happy to let him turn into ashes, it is a matter of life and death, and the next ruthless hand is quite cost-effective.

It turned out that he was taking advantage of others, and suddenly Xiao Ye, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he lifted the reins to urge the war horse, and his waist was straight, even if it was so, then the next steps, let yourself go further.

Due to the speed of the carriage, after the team passed through the gravel fort, it was already dark on the north bank of the Xilong River, and in desperation, Xiao Ye had to order to camp on the riverside; Barracks tents were erected.

At the fork in the road three miles away from the gravel fort, Xiao Ye looked at the fort with a telescope, and the figure swaying on the fort wall, he just glanced at it coldly a few times, and didn't pay much attention to it; If he wants to use himself as a knife, his father Simon Gale may not care, but he can't cross it psychologically, and the knife handle must be held in his own hands.

All changes are the book in his arms; A military man opens his eyes, and the consequences are quite serious.
