Tangzhou is still the same Tangzhou, located north of Xiangyang and south of Xuzhou.

What is different is that the current Tangzhou is exuding a youthful vitality, as if it has woken up, and new changes are taking place every day. Some of the changes are small, and some of them are very striking.

Today is another sunny day, spring has come to an end, summer is beginning to emerge, the morning sun has been a little hot, and people who get up in the morning have begun to get used to the various changes in Tangzhou.

This change is not confined to Tangzhou, but in the entire Henan Province, which has become neither Southern nor Mongolian, and the only constant is the increasingly smiling faces of the people who live here.

In the early morning, the sun paved the way, the city gate was opened, and the business travelers who came and went began to check the city one by one, and everyone lined up in order, and the soldiers guarding the city gate checked to see if they had brought prohibited items, registered information, and entered the city.

Not a single caravan, not a single passer-by-passer, complained, for they were accustomed to it, and the soldiers did not deliberately make things difficult and did not charge the city fees, but only stipulated that they were not allowed to bring anything, and when they were found out, they refused to enter.

In the past, some people forced their way into the city by force and status, and even wounded several soldiers, but they were soon punished, and those who wounded were forcibly detained, and those who made troubles were severely punished.

Whether you are a martial arts master or a dignitary, there seems to be nothing special in this Tangzhou. If you enter the city, you have to abide by the rules, and if you don't obey them, you will naturally have a way to govern them.

The young man, who claimed to be the son of a high-ranking official in the Southern Song Dynasty, was beaten with twenty boards and expelled from the city. The martial artist who called himself the Yellow River Crazy Sword was also abolished and thrown out of Tangzhou like a dog.

So, later people have learned a lesson, do not dare to violate the rules here, they also gradually found that this place is actually very good, the environment is clean and beautiful, merchants can open shops freely, ordinary people can work here, as long as they keep to themselves, pay some seemingly insignificant taxes, they can live well here.

Even some people who couldn't survive in their hometown dragged their families to Tangzhou and lived here.

In this place, whether you are a homeless or a beggar, anyone who has a skill will not refuse to come. Without any skills, there is nothing to do, the "government" will send them to do what they can, and even those disabled people are organized to weave bamboo baskets and memorize them. If you are a child, as long as you are under the age of sixteen, you will all be gathered to go to school, and it will be enforced, and you will not be reasonable.

The school here is strange, they admit students of both men and women, whether high or low, as long as they are of the right age, they must study. Even adults will be regularly organized to make them literate.

It's just that some people in the city are worried that this school does not teach the Four Books and Five Classics, and does not teach Confucianism, but teaches some miscellaneous studies, such as martial arts, arithmetic, physics, chemistry and biology.

Some Confucian scholars who originally came here and wanted to find a position criticized this for not respecting the holy teacher, which is against the trend of the times, and this is misleading the children of the people, and they want to stop the Chinese inheritance. Some of them once organized a group of Confucian students to storm the "government" and want the school to make changes, shouting something about "scholars and doctors ruling the world together".

In the end, this group of people was blasted out by the vicious black skin city management, and each one of them was recorded, never welcomed, never appointed.

The "official government" in the city is different from the Southern Song Dynasty and Mongolia, they are very strong and reasonable, and they will always make it clear before doing things, issue notices, and go to the streets and alleys with people to publicize, and use as much methods as possible to make people understand.

For example, they treated merchants, students, artisans, farmers, or soldiers.

Among the craftsmen, those who are willing to contribute their skills, and those who go to the "government" workshop to do things will have a large amount of money, and if the craftsmen can find any new craftsmanship and improve the old craftsmanship, they will receive money.

Not only craftsmen, but also for merchants who perform well and pay taxes on time for a month, the "government" will also give a pennant, the fly in the ointment is that this pennant belongs to mobility, this month in this one, the next month may be in another, only those who have obtained the pennant for one consecutive season can have it for life.

Therefore, this pennant represents an honor, and many people gradually go to the shops that have the pennant to buy things.

The school has set up scholarships for students, and students with excellent grades, strong hands-on ability, and the courage to ask questions will be rewarded, but this semester is not over yet, and I don't know who will spend the high scholarship at the end of the semester.

Farmers are not bad, as long as you are serious about farming and want to farm, the "government" will provide you with seeds and farm tools, and even ploughing cattle, and send people to guide you on how to farm, but you need to hand over more grain than others during the harvest season.

The most peculiar thing about Tangzhou City is that it treats soldiers, which is completely different from the practice of discriminating against soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The "official government" built a military soul monument for the soldiers, saying that it was to remember forever those who died defending the city. At the beginning, some people were quite disdainful, thinking that it was natural for soldiers to eat food, until the day when the military soul monument was built, the troops in Tangzhou City gathered for a military parade, which moved these people, and the neat team and the resolute military posture were deeply imprinted in their minds.

This is a different team from this era.

Subsequently, the live performance organized by the "government" made ordinary people cry, there are not too many examples of soldiers defending the country in history, in the past hundred years, what Yang family generals, Yue family army, is enough to move these people.

This is an era of war, many people have experienced the ordeal of war, Tangzhou was occupied by the Jin State in the past, and then fell into the hands of Mongolia, some of them have suffered that kind of humiliation and suffering in their families, and even some people in their families have been soldiers, and they died on the battlefield, how can they not be moved?

After the performance, some enthusiastic young people even clamored on the spot to join the army and become characters like those heroes.

However, the army does not come and go when it wants, and has iron discipline. Some families who had served in the army knew that this army was by no means commanded by the Southern Song Dynasty, and they did not belong to this era. Who has ever seen such a high literacy rate? Who has ever seen those strange and devastating weapons?

The ancients were not stupid, they all knew that this city did not belong to the Southern Song Dynasty, it did not belong to Mongolia, it was like a beast lurking in the dark, and one day, it would show its sharp fangs.

It's just that these people don't think about this. Most of them are refugees, beggars, weeds struggling to survive under the iron hooves of the Mongols in the Jin Kingdom, and since this place has given them a better sky and many unimaginable beauty, they will swear to support it.

What to talk to them about the homeland of the Southern Song Dynasty, the righteousness of the country, etc., it's all nonsense, have you ever seen a country that has abandoned the entire north for more than a hundred years? Have you seen the group of officials who only know how to get drunk and dream of death, indulge in economic prosperity, but don't want to live in dire straits? If it's such a homeland, it's better not to have it.

Most of the ordinary people in this era have a bad life, and life and death may pass suddenly, who has time to talk to you about those vanities?

People, after all, must first have a physical survival before they can talk about spiritual cultivation.

Not everyone can do what Yue Fei did, not everyone is Wen Tianxiang, this world is the world of ordinary people after all. What they need is to live, not to ascend to the Tianzi Hall and die for the king.

Moreover, only when there is a country can there be a home, and only when there is a family can there be a country, this sentence is to ensure that the country treats you as a person, and the country treats you as a real citizen. Instead of the herdsmen of the Son of Heaven, the ministers are like dogs, treating the people as grass mustard and livestock.

The states and counties of White Night didn't actually do much, but they just gave them hope, and made them feel that they were important and valued, and they were willing to squander their wisdom and sweat here.

In these places, they can work, they can have land distribution, they can do business with peace of mind, their children can study, and the elderly can go out to do things, so what's wrong here?

In the sun, a road paved into the distance, the redesigned walls of concrete and masonry, standing like a fortress of steel, like a line of defense that would never collapse, defending against any enemy who dared to attack.

A young man in blue came from the sunshine, stepped on the light, and put his hand in front of his eyebrows, as if looking at this vibrant city.

Today, the soldiers defending the city checked on a strange boy who did not allow them to check his backpack and was about to force his way into the city.

The young man's martial arts were extremely high, and more than a dozen soldiers still could not be subdued, and the young man could not hurt anyone, and they could not use muskets, so they had to call the military commanders who were in the city to come.

It was Guo Xiang who came, and when she saw the person who waved to her, she was stunned at first, stared blankly for a while, and then hurriedly ran over and showed an identity certificate, and the soldiers looked at it and respectfully saluted the young man, and the young man just smiled and nodded in response. Let Guo Xiang take his hand and enter the city, making many business travelers and pedestrians in line stunned, thinking that it would be another good show, but they didn't want it to end like this.

"Brother, are you back?"

"Huh?"

Guo Xiang asked very gently, let Bai Ye be stunned, isn't this guy changing his temper and so well-behaved?

As he expected, in the next moment, Guo Xiang immediately crossed his waist with one hand, and almost poked Bai Ye's nose with one hand, and yelled at Bai Ye: "You bastard, leave a group of us behind, you are at ease!" Did You Know? There are so many things we don't understand, we don't know what to do! ”

Gouging out his ears, Bai Ye blew very calmly, looked at his second sister, and whispered, "Got it." ”

Guo Xiang didn't yell at him or scold him anymore, but hugged her brother and laughed softly: "It's good to be back!" ”
