After entering Feng Yi's territory, Sun Jian said goodbye to Li Shushi, because he didn't need to go back to Zhang Wen to report, and Tao Qian would naturally complete the work, so all he had to do at this time was to rush back to the front line.

According to Sun Jian, before he left, the army had just built a defensive line in the area of Meiyang and Wugong, and he could barely gain a foothold. Such a bad battle situation made Li Shushi somewhat surprised, after all, the two places were already very close to Gaoling County, the seat of Youfufeng, and Maoxiang, which was subordinate to Gaoling, if these two places were breached, then I am afraid that the upper echelons of the Han Dynasty would set off a monstrous wave.

And the most important place is not Gaoling County, which is the right Fufeng Governance Office, but Maoxiang, which is a subordinate of Gaoling County.

Yes, the status of this township-level administrative unit called Mao far exceeds that of Gaoling County, which is its boss, and the reason for this result is that this Mao Township has a more famous place name, that is, Maoling.

Yes, this is where the mausoleums of the 11 emperors of the Western Han Dynasty were buried, not only that, but Liu Che moved the world's wealthy families here in order to facilitate the management of those powerful heroes, on the one hand, to guard the mausoleums of the ancestors and descendants, on the other hand, it is also centralized management for easy monitoring, and Guo Jie, the boss of the X society, who is known as a generation of heroes, also stepped onto the front stage of history because of this order, and finally became a wisp of the soul of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the policy of eradicating the powerful and powerful.

Although there was a large-scale upheaval in the Chang'an region because of Wang Mang's "new" dynasty, the Maoling region was not as affected as the Jingzhao region where Chang'an was located. Although the influence here has decreased a lot by the end of the Han Dynasty, if you look at the list of famous ministers of the Eastern Han Dynasty, you will feel the strong group advantage of the Maoling family.

The Maoling Ma family, the most famous should be the ancestor of Kaiji, Ma Yuan, the Confucian clan, Ma Rong, and Ma Teng and Ma Chao, who are considered to be the identity of the Maoling Ma family. In addition, the Ma family also produced a queen, although it was very glorious, but it was precisely for this reason that Ma Yuan had the identity of a relative, so the 28th general of Yuntai lost the heroic general of the "horse leather shroud".

As for Ma Rong, let's not talk about his identity as a Confucian, just look at the level of Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi who taught him, not to mention that this person's life is also interesting, life can be called luxurious when he is alive, even if he gives lectures to students, dozens of singers must be placed next to him to play and sing, presumably the appearance of these young women should be above the average level, otherwise there will be no allusion to Zheng Xuan's ignorance of the beauty to study seriously and be appreciated by Ma Rong and finally learn Ma Rong's knowledge.

Of course, this qiē is just a foreshadowing, although Ma Rong was luxurious in his life, but when he died, he was strictly ordered to be buried thinly, and even the grave was just a low mound. If the story only came here, it might just be a strong contrast between before and after his death, but what he never expected was that as his protégés, friends and admirers came to worship, I don't know who began to form an unspoken rule, that is, everyone who went to Ma Rong's tomb to worship would use their own shoes to sprinkle a handful of soil on the mound, so three years later, Ma Rong's tomb, which was originally just an ordinary mound, turned into a giant hill.

Oh, some people are dead, but he has more influence than the living.

The above is just a more famous guy in the Maoling Ma family, and the rest of the high-ranking officials such as Taishou who are more than 2,000 stone are even more unknown, even at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there is still a Taifu named Ma Riyan, which can be regarded as a wealthy lord.

By the way, the men of the Ma family are very powerful, and the women of the Ma family are also very strong, Ma Rong's daughter Ma Lun is the wife of Yuan Kui, the current head of the Yuan family in Runan, and Ma Lun's own sister Ma Zhi also entered the "Biography of the Daughters" of the "Book of the Later Han" with her sister because of her excellent literary literacy. And another woman who can also be called a fierce woman is the wife of Huangfu Gui, who is an old cow gnawing tender grass, but the ending is a little miserable, after all, her opponent is Dong Feifei, who was super strong at that time.

The second is also a wealthy family, that is, the Geng family founded by Geng Yi, who was lucky to climb the Yuntai than Ma Yuan, this family is different from the Ma family, which has gradually transformed into a family of poetry and books because of Ma Rong's survival, and it is more inclined to the development of the military lineage. Among them, Geng Yi, Geng Gong and Geng Bing can be called a generation of leaders, and have made outstanding contributions to the creation of the Han Dynasty and the tranquility of northern Xinjiang.

The most terrifying thing is that from the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the end of Jian'an, the Geng family produced two generals, nine generals, thirteen Qing, three princesses, nineteen liehous, Zhonglang generals, Huqiang lieutenants and assassins, and two thousand stones. If it weren't for the fact that the relationship with the Dou family was too close, I am afraid that even the Yuan family, the fourth and third dukes, would have difficulty wrestling with the Geng family in the army.

As for the Wei family and the Huo family, which have existed here since the Eastern Han Dynasty, although the ancestors are very famous, they have now declined, just like the descendants of Chen Qun, who originally formulated the "Nine Grades Zhongzheng System", were unknown after they arrived in Yongjia Nandu, and finally slowly turned into the dust of history, and then were blown to unknown places with the storm of history.

Therefore, given by these wealthy lords, the population of Maoling can be said to be quite large, although many of them are hidden households that are not included in the national population, that is, slaves and tribes attached to the powerful families, but the actual population is far from being reflected in a township.

In the two counties west of Maoling or Huaili, Pingling and Gaoling are also gate valve gatherings. The prosperity of Cheng dù here even surpassed that of Jingzhao Chang'an, which was the capital of the Han Dynasty. If it weren't for Liu Hong's forcible relocation of 100,000 displaced people to Chang'an at the end of last year, I'm afraid that Chang'an's population would not be as good as these powerful gathering places.

From the above numbers, it can be seen how fierce the momentum of the Qiang people who are directly pointing at Meiyang and Wugong is so fierce, if the Meiyang-Wugong defense line is lost, then the consequences will be unimaginable. At that time, the Han may only be able to use Tongguan in Hongnong County and Wuguan in the southeast of Jingzhao Yin to resist the Qiang footsteps, and this is by no means alarmist.

As long as you think about the Weinan Campaign led by Ma Chao and Han Sui in history, although Chang'an is a fortified city, it is difficult to resist the siege of more than 100,000 troops due to its special geographical conditions and incomplete defense system, and finally it can only retreat to Tongguan and wait for Cao Cao's reinforcements.

"Don't forget the future, the teacher of the past." This sentence probably means that Li Shushi, who is a traverser, dares to shout like this.

It's just that Sun Jian, a martial artist, obviously didn't fully explain the matter, because many things obviously weren't something he, a soldier who hadn't even understood the war, had time to think about or take the initiative to understand, so naturally he wouldn't share them with Li Shushi.

What made Li Shushi and his companions so stunned, the answer was the village in front of him.

The excitement of stepping on the land of Sanfu has gradually subsided, and those Haoqiang children from Fushi are still following Li Shushi's side, they are expected to be separated in Chang'an, and then Li Shushi will go to the northwest, and the Haoqiang children will march east to Henan Yin through Tongguan.

However, it didn't take long for the group to discover a situation that made them feel very bad, that is, it was very difficult for their group to find a place with a large number of people to resupply. Of course, this is not to say that they have reached the point where they are running out of ammunition and food, at least because they were stained with Sun Jian's light when they left Qiyuan, they obtained sufficient supplies in the name of Sun Jian.

But what makes them depressed now is that many of the villages they pass through are basically empty, and only the large and small graves outside the village can show the popularity of this place. Although the supplies of Li Shushi and his party were enough for them to support them until they reached Chang'an, this could only be done if they were frugal and did not encounter emergencies.

However, after all, there was no scene of people going to the empty city in the county seat of Qiqi County, and Li Shushi and his party were relieved, but when they gathered the information they had gathered, they found that the situation they saw was obviously not the worst.

According to people familiar with the matter, the Sanfu area can now be described as a natural disaster.

Let's talk about the tragic natural disaster first. It is said that there were several heavy snowfalls in the Sanfu area last year, and this kind of weather originally made many farmers and people overjoyed, because it seemed to indicate a very good harvest next year.

It's just that God obviously played a big but cruel joke on everyone. The spring rain, which was originally as expensive as oil, was sprinkled this year as if it was not bad money, and the heavy snow that fell last winter and this spring melted into water, although there was no major flood, but the excess water turned the cultivated land into a mud pond, and people stepped on it as if they were walking in the snow, one foot at a time.

In this case, it is impossible to scatter the seeds throughout the field by hand, even if you barely rely on perseverance to walk through the entire field, but the soil will be compacted when you step on it, and when the land is dry, it will harden, affecting the seeds to break through the soil and sprout.

It was easy to wait until the weather cleared and the land began to become a matter of cultivation, and everyone hurried to replant the crops, although it was a little late, but looking at the high sun and the abundant river, it seemed that a good harvest could still be expected.

It's a pity that the good day is a bit too much, at least from the day of the sunny day until Li Shushi arrives here, the sun in the sky has no desire to hide in the clouds to escape the heat. Of course, this is not that the sun is super dedicated, but there is really no cloud in the sky that can block the sun, so even if the sun wants to escape the heat, he can only continue to stand on another shift.

Although the water in the rivers is still crystal clear and the water in the wells is still cool, if this situation continues for another two months, then it is estimated that everyone from the government to the old farmers will burst into tears. As for now, the landlord's family has no surplus grain.

Natural disasters are already so disturbing, and they are even more unbearable.

Of course, there is one thing that Li Shushi will not say if he is killed, and what cannot be said whether he is killed is that the reason why this situation occurs is that if you trace the source, the source is none other than him Li Shushi himself.

So when Li Shushi sorted out the context of the whole thing, he ran to the corner to plant mushrooms in Su Xiaololi's weird eyes, after all, this result was too shocking.

But we are all bad people, isn't tearing other people's wounds or something exactly what the people like to see?

It is said that one of the biggest reasons why Zhang Jiao was able to get the support of so many people was that he helped the poor people to treat the plague that broke out in Hebei for free. And the first time Li Shushi met Zhang Jiao, it was when Zhang Jiao was incognito to serve the people, and Zhang Jiao's ability to draw talismans at that time made Li Shushi, who didn't know anything, amazed.

It's just that there aren't many people who can make a charm seal to treat the epidemic, so what Zhang Jiao and his disciples did can be said to have little effect on the control of the epidemic except for bringing a large number of believers. After all, with the emergence of a large number of displaced people, the large-scale movement of people and the epidemic that occurs in it are powerless for either the government or the private sector.

And this restless force was introduced to the Sanfu region by Li Shushi's idea, and the Han Emperor Liu Hong patted his head and quickly broke out and spread with the fierce labor and restless escape, and finally became an uncontrollable ending.

As a result, the displaced people who had been driven to the Sanfu area seem to have shown signs of returning to the Central Plains. And this time I am afraid that this return will be added to the Liangzhou refugees who have lost their homes and the Sanfu refugees who have been plagued by natural disasters.
