ps: The line of summoning Meng and Chun Yu Tiying is not written blindly, Yanmen County is on the front line against the Huns, and for this reason, the bushmen who can fight well are also moved out, and the following book friends must understand. {{x} Subscription, subscription, subscription is the lifeblood of this book!

In late September, the grass on the grassland gradually withered yellow, and the Han people living in the border county were busy storing the forage for the winter after harvesting the grain.

The border counties are vast and sparsely populated, the biggest reason is that the land is thin and the water source is scarce, compared with the counties on both sides of the Yellow River, the population of the entire Yanmen County is only more than 200,000, in February it was surrounded and burned by the Xiongnu army in Shanwu County, and the border city of Mayi was plundered, and the population of the people who were taken away and fled was tens of thousands of people, and the population of Yanmen County today is more than 200,000 people, and it is less than 50,000 households.

This is the latest figure counted in August this year, and there are more than 240,000 households in Hedong County, with a population of more than 996,300, almost a population of 1 million, compared with only one-fifth of the population and household registration of Yanmen County.

The rebuilding work of the dilapidated Yanmen County has come to an end, the bricks and stones from the north have been transported in a steady stream, although the lack of cement adhesion does not affect the progress of the project, the simple materials made of lime and clay mixed with water can also be improvised, as long as there is no problem with more knocking and compaction, tens of thousands of people in Yanmen County have been busy for more than half a year, and a new castle has been built on the ruins of the original site, and the county seat of Shanwu is more tall and majestic than before.

A few heavy rains after autumn. Wash away the impetuous smoke and dust of the border counties, and at the same time turn the dry land into a muddy pond.

Du Yi stepped on the arduous trek of one foot deep and one foot shallow, and more than 200 young people behind him discussed the next life in the border county with great interest. They are the sons of a good family recruited by the Pingyang Marquis from Hedong County, and there are several brothers who are ranked third or fourth in the family, according to custom, the younger son is to set up his own door when he reaches the age of twenty and become an adult, and in the future their titles will only be two or three rank people, for the good family who are used to living a good life, such a life change is unacceptable.

The easiest way to promote the Son of Heaven is to wait for the Son of Heaven to reward the Lord of the People's Rank, and such a good thing becomes a luxury as the Son of Heaven becomes seriously ill. The rest of Nasu Baijue was thwarted by Cao Shiwei's meritorious marquis, and at most the Baijue to the fifth level of doctors could not satisfy their appetite, at least until the ninth level of five doctors could meet their needs. The workaround is to go to the border and kill more Huns and hand them over to the Taishou, so that the Taishou will take out some of them and count them as their own merits.

Drawing out half or a third of the level is quite dark, but it can't bear the fact that both sides are willing to fight and suffer, and they are not in the system of county soldiers in the border counties. does not listen to the orders of the captain Taishou, and there is no restraint of military rules and Chinese laws. You can grab and play as much as you want, but in contrast, the county soldiers are bound to the barracks and can't go out at will, let alone run to the grassland to cut off the barbarian's head, there is no such opportunity at all.

This set of rules is a secret that has been secretly circulated in the border county in recent years, and ordinary business travelers do not know the secret, and they think that according to the original rules, they will cut a few sheep, and only the top caravans have a small scale of secrets, and Taishou and Du Wei will only open a small stove for the caravan with a strong background behind them. It's more real than a few sheep or a knighthood.

Du Yi wiped his sweat and saw the Xiongcheng standing on the grassland at the end of his sight. Waving his hand to stop the team: "The front is Shanwu County, you have to listen clearly, you must obey the arrangements of the caravan veterans when you go to the place, the rules in the caravan are completely in accordance with the army, the veterans tell you not to resist, don't argue with reason, don't gather crowds to make noise, and don't gather people to find a team theory, that will only be punished more heavily, and you will be beaten until your skin is opened, do you understand?" ”

"Whoa!"

Most of the young people don't think so, they are more than 200 soldiers, strong horses, and full of spirits, since childhood contact with the training of foot combat and horse warfare, dare not say that compared to the elite of the northern and southern armies, at least not inferior to this small caravan, the steward of the Hou Mansion in front of him chirped crookedly along the way, which has long made many people feel bored.

Du Yi saw their attitude, and snorted coldly: "Don't think that you are very capable, there are a few people in the family who serve in the army, or you think that your father is a high-ranking person, no one in the caravan will care about your background, and if you don't do things well, you will be punished and punished, and you are not mentally prepared to go back with me as soon as possible, so as not to cry and cry for your mother in the caravan to leave, at that time, it is called that the earth and the earth are not working." ”

"Oops! Isn't it just the management of the army, the education we received at home is also like this, let's go! ”

"Don't listen to the old man, the loss is in front of you, when you feel good, let's see." Du Yi scolded and urged the team to move on.

He was supposed to be an iron housekeeper in the west of Chang'an City, managing a group of domestic servants easily and comfortably every day, wiping the iron treasures in the shop, hugging the concubine when the shop was closed in the evening, occasionally eating and drinking with frequent big customers, or going to Goolan Village to recruit a few dusty women to drink flower wine, and the small life was delicious and refreshing.

Unexpectedly, it was also unlucky, and the matter of eating the iron in the store at the lowest price with several merchants in Dongshi was exposed, not only confiscated and took away all the hundreds of thousands of dollars obtained from profit, but also was assigned to the border county as the captain of the transportation team, from spring to autumn in six months between Hedong County and Yanmen County ran back and forth six times, in addition to transporting Xinding and new goods, he was also responsible for transporting wounded veterans and unclean goods back to Houguo.

The advantage of this is that the caravan does not have to come back once a year, the disadvantage is that Du Yi's kid life is simply unbearable, he eats inside and outside to fill his own pockets and is kicked out, his reputation in the Hou Kingdom plummets and he almost becomes a street rat, the concubine in the Beijing division is taken back to the hometown of the Hou State to live, and he himself has to go home to face the yellow face of the yellow face of the wife's horizontal eyebrows, and the relatives at home look at him wrongly, and his regretful intestines are almost green.

When he entered the county seat of Shanwu, he was immediately blocked by a team of riders.

"Yo! It's the Chen family kid who came to pick up the team today, and he hasn't seen him for a month, and he's a lot stronger! ”

Chen Zhangzhang scolded with a straight face: "Who are you close to?" My name is Chen Zhang, if you have anything to call me by my name, don't call me the Chen family kid, Lao Tzu is not in the mood to come to this set with you. ”

Du Yi retracted his head in a daze, cursing in his heart that this kid didn't know what to do, and secretly glanced at the twenty-odd riders who were all strong and strong, with the unique savage atmosphere of the grassland, carrying two scimitars of different lengths around their waists, a strong bow and quiver hanging on the saddle, in addition to a kettle, a bag of dry food and hemp rope for tying things, and when necessary, they could be made into a set of horses to grab horses or tie people.

The more than 200 newcomers in the city gate were all dumbfounded, seeing that these 20 or so people did not look like ordinary caravans at all, this is the attire of professional scouts or professional horse thieves, they obviously will not be scouts in the county soldiers, with turbans on their heads and mouths covered with black cloths, they will instantly become the leaders of horse thieves in the desert.

"What are you doing? Get out of the way and let the others pass, you take these idiots to our place and familiarize yourself with the terrain. Chen Zhang commanded his subordinates to disassemble more than 200 people in an instant, and the group of young and vigorous Xinding was immediately suppressed by the veterans and acted honestly according to the requirements.

Chen Zhang took Du Yi and the Hou Mansion family who pressed the goods to the warehouse in the city, there were fifty or sixty people practicing martial arts in a huge courtyard, and they didn't care when they saw the caravan coming, and a few people grinned at Du Yi and mocked.

Du Yi knew the rules, obediently handed over the account book, and the people in the caravan untied the packages and boxes one by one to check and register them into the warehouse, and after a while, Xu Wan led a few assistants who were less than twenty years old to come over, took the account book and glanced at it and nodded.

"It seems that this year is another good year, and the grain collected in the Hou Kingdom is a lot more than in previous years!"

"What Xu Jiajian said is that our prince has built a number of waterwheels in the Hou country, and the dry fields on both sides of the Fenshui River will not be turned into irrigated land, and the grain produced by one acre of land will change from four stones to five stones, and the people of the Hou country will celebrate the harvest day after day, but Uncle Chen will be very happy."

Chen Zhang snorted dissatisfiedly, he didn't like to hear Du Yi's grandfather's name, he was very clear about the situation in Hou Guoli, a few days ago, he sent a letter from his grandfather Uncle Chen from the post station, and their family collected 2,600 stone of grain from five acres of Shangtian, which was nearly 500 stone more than in previous years, and almost didn't let the old man faint.

Xu Wan shook his head: "It's a pity that there was a plague in Hedong this year, and many people died of illness from Anyi to Pingyang, and our Hou Mansion also suffered a lot of losses. ”

Du Yi was a little caught off guard, the sudden plague in April was indeed unexpected, not only the plague spread in Hedong County, but also in Henan County and Hanzhong County, since the earthquake last spring, Hanzhong County has been earthquakes this year, it is said that the plague is too many people who died, Hedong County conservatively estimated that thousands of people died, and the county magistrate and Pingyang Houguo were the hardest hit areas.

It is normal for Anyi to have a plague in the county, and the Pingyang Hou Kingdom is purely because of the positive impact brought by the rise of Cao Shi, many foreign merchants have come from thousands of miles to buy ironware, and they have become one of the distribution centers for the spread of foreign plagues, and the people of the Hou Mansion have more opportunities to contact outsiders, and hundreds of people fell ill in a few days, most of the young and strong people survived, and a small number of women and children unfortunately became victims, and Zhao Meng's original partner died in the plague.

"Don't be too sad."

"Humph! You don't know that Uncle Zhao just married a lady, right? ”

"So fast?"

Chen Zhang's eyes turned to the gate, and saw a man and a woman walking from outside the gate, the man was tall and strong like a black iron tower, and the woman was white and weak like a beautiful lotus flower, and the two walked in hand in arm.

"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Chunyu is back so soon!" (To be continued!)
