Chapter 19 Yecheng, Jizhou
Xu Chu on the side heard that Dian Wei reported to his home, and he was also shocked, and stepped forward with a depressed face and said: "It turns out that you are a wicked man, just say that the ancient evil that the lord talks about every day comes to Dian Wei, and my lord stays in Chen Liu for three days in order to find you, it is really worth beating, hum, in addition to being physically stronger, I don't see any ability, I can be the lord's guard with my Xu Chu." ”
"Hmph." Dian Wei ignored Xu Chu at all, and looked at Liu Tai with a hint of joy on his resolute face: "I don't know how the adults will look for Dian Wei?" ”
Liu Tai shook his head, picked up Dian Wei and said, "No need to ask, Tai will explain it to you later, but isn't the evil from my own?" Why is there no news of Tai's many searches? ”
Since Liu Tai came to Chenliu three days ago, he sent people to inquire about the location of Dian Wei, and even went to the field to explore many times, but for some reason, no one told Liu Tai's subordinates where Dian Wei was, but it was learned that Dian Wei was wanted by the Jiwu government, and it was rumored that Dian Wei was in Jiwu County, and he killed a landlord and dozens of his family members in anger, but Liu Tai did not know the real situation. The helpless Liu Tai spent money to ask the government to revoke the wanted for Dian Wei, and he was already ready to give up, but he didn't think that Dian Wei would send it to the door himself.
Dian Wei heard Liu Tai call himself evil, just smiled stupidly, and said honestly: "Before turning Dian Wei made a big fuss about his own mansion, killed a landlord full of evil, was wanted by the mansion, and his brothers were in the Blue Mountain, hiding from the government officials, and then heard that the wanted government had been canceled by Lord Liu, so he went down the mountain. ”
Speaking of this, Dian Wei paused and continued: "Dian Wei saw that the homeless people flocked to Chenliu from all over the world, and learned that the adults were kind-hearted, gave money and grain, bought soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and were willing to take the people to live in the north, and selected the strong ones among the homeless people to be responsible for protecting the people, so he brought his brothers to join the adults and make some efforts for the people. ”
Liu Tai nodded with a smile, patted Dian Wei's shoulder, and said with a happy expression: "Okay, I will order you to be the captain of the military academy today, and the strong men under you will be incorporated into the Jinyi Guard, and then another 2,500 homeless people will be selected under your command and handed over to you to be responsible for the safety of Tai." ”
"Dian Wei commands." Dian Wei bowed to Liu Tai with a happy expression, and now Dian Wei can be said to be double happy, not only went to the wanted of the government office, but also became a captain of the military academy, and suddenly became the commander of the three thousand guards, how can he not be happy?
Three days later
Liu Tai had a total of more than 128,000 people in Yanzhou, and the original team of 3,000 suddenly expanded dozens of times, and Liu Tai, who was full of ambition, was wearing overlord armor, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, riding on a war horse, walking in the front of the brigade, leading his people to the north of Xinjiang.
Along the way, the victims of the disaster gathered more and more, from more than 120,000 people to Yecheng, Wei County, on the north bank of the Yellow River, it has expanded to 180,000.
"Lord Lord, Lord Liu Yan, the father of the Lord Liu, has led the civil and military forces to wait for the Lord at the south gate of Yecheng." Xu Wei, who was in charge of exploring the way, stepped forward and said.
Xu Wei is good at hiding, exploring the enemy, and martial arts are the bottom of the seven heroes of the Xu family, so Liu Tai handed over the heavy responsibility of scouting to Xu Wei, Xu Wei did not live up to Liu Tai's expectations, and along the way, almost nothing can escape Xu Wei's eyes.
Liu Tai said "En", looked at Yecheng faintly visible in front of him, and instructed Dian Wei on the side: "Dian Wei, you lead five hundred guards to enter Yecheng with Tai, and the brigade will go down here." ”
"No—" Everyone answered, and then left to prepare.
Liu Tai took Dian Wei and five hundred guards, all the way to Yecheng, and after a while, he saw Liu Yan leading many civil and military forces, standing under Yecheng, waiting for Liu Tai's arrival.
"Unfilial son Liu Tai, I have seen my father." About twenty meters away from Yecheng, Liu Tai got off the horse and ran forward to bow down to Liu Yan.
"Okay, good, quick, get up." Liu Yan stepped forward to help Liu Tai with a look of relief and said: "I haven't seen you for two months, Tai'er's reputation is all over the country, and I feel very relieved for my father." ”
"A little false name, not enough to worry about." Liu Tai got up and said with a serious face, then looked at the many Jizhou civil and military forces behind Liu Yan, bowed and said, "Tai has seen all the ministers of Jizhou. ”
"We have seen the second son..."Among these people, although some of them are much bigger than Liu Tai's official position, but for the sake of Liu Yan's face, how dare they snub Liu Tai, and hurriedly bowed back one by one.
"Tai'er, Yecheng is still thousands of miles away from Youbeiping, why don't Tai'er live in Yecheng temporarily?" Liu Yan looked at Liu Tai with a comforting face, took Liu Tai's left hand, and walked towards the city, saying as he walked.
Liu Tai shook his head disapprovingly, glanced at the prosperous Yecheng and said: "Father, saving the people is like fighting fire, now there are 180,000 people who go to the north with Tai, all the way, although they can temporarily eat and wear, but many people are not adapted, and minor illnesses continue. ”
Liu Yan heard Liu Tai's words, and said with a helpless wry smile: "It's just some homeless people, why is Tai'er so stubborn." ”
A cold light flashed in Liu Tai's eyes, but he still said respectfully: "Father, the child is young, if you go to Northern Xinjiang, there will be many people who are not convinced, if you don't win the hearts of the people, how can you resist the hundreds of thousands of troops in Xianbei?" ”
"This....okay, it's okay" Liu Yan shook his head helplessly, knowing that he couldn't persuade Liu Tai, and then said: "Since this is the case, my father will immediately order to raise horses, grain, grass, clothing, utensils and other things for you." ”
"Thank you, Father." Liu Tai looked overjoyed, just waiting for Liu Yan's words, now all the way forward, the ranks of the people continue to expand, five hundred gold is no longer much, if Liu Yan does not help Liu Tai, Liu Tai is ready to go to the gate lord clan to rob.
"Haha..."Liu Yan was overjoyed when he saw Liu Tai, and he also laughed and said: "Later, we will go to the Thorn History Mansion together, the rest of the people in Yecheng, Tai'er doesn't need to be seen, but the inorganic Zhen family who temporarily lives in Yecheng, Tai'er can't be seen." ”
"Oh? Zhen's family? Is it the first of the four major merchants of my Han Dynasty? Liu Tai's eyes lit up, and he asked with a happy face.
"It's the Wuji Zhen family." Liu Yan nodded with a smile and said.
Jizhou Thorn History Mansion
Jizhou is the most populous state in the Han Dynasty, with no less than 8 million people on the register, and at this time, all the population of the entire Han Dynasty combined, is only more than 56 million, plus the natural disasters in recent years, the population loss is serious, the gate valve wantonly annexes the land, and recruits the displaced people as private troops (the peasants under the name of the gate lord will not be counted in the state capital register), resulting in the late Han Dynasty Emperor Xian era, the entire Han population is less than 20 million.
In the Assassin's Mansion, the hundreds of officials in Jizhou sat down one by one, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, it was so lively, and Liu Yan, as the master, was naturally very busy.
"Everyone, this time my son Liu Tai passed by Jizhou, many people under his name are hungry, lack of food and food, all of you here are my Han officials, famous scholars, you should help, I don't know what you think?" Liu Yan smiled all the way and raised his wine glass to everyone present.
There is no good banquet, everyone present is an old fritter who has been rolling in the officialdom for several years, how can they refute the face of Liu Yan, the top boss? Although the heartache is given to those untouchables, it can't help but be right?
