Section 223 Zhizhou

After the big exam, Feng Xiangchen and Fang Yiyuan both entered the palace exam. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing Emperor Shunming, Fang Yiyuan no longer had the excitement and excitement he had more than three hundred years ago. He became very bland, even a little proud. It is no wonder that although the emperor has a noble status, he is only an ordinary worldly person. When the 100-year life limit arrives, it is still just a pinch of loess.

Feng Xiangchen looked excited and nervous. He is full of confidence in the temple examination, and he is desperate to get a higher ranking in the palace examination.

The day of the list is coming soon. Feng Xiangchen is indeed the leader among the poor students, ranking high in the first and second places.

Fang Yiyuan's ranking is lower, ranking sixth in the second class.

According to the convention, the top three in the first class are to boast about the official parade on the street. As for the later Jinshi, there is no such honor.

Riding on a tall horse, with red flowers, Feng Xiangchen felt that the sky was very blue, with white clouds, and his mood began to fly, flying into the clouds.

The only thing that made him feel bad was that the Quaguan Street route did not pass in front of Yang's Mansion. Today is the most wonderful time to be a man, but the beloved woman can't see it. This made Feng Xiangchen very dissatisfied, but he was helpless.

But in general, the first part of my wish has been fulfilled. As long as he occupies a place in the imperial court, he will have a bargaining chip to get Yang Qiurong.

Fang Yiyuan's idea is not so complicated. As soon as the various tedious ceremonies and ceremonies were over, he hurriedly left the capital of Chu State. With the identity documents issued by the ministry, he went to Fuzhou to take up his post.

In the archives of the Ministry of Officials, the words "New Science and Technology Jinshi Fang Yiyuan is appointed as the governor of Fuzhou" are clearly written.

Zhizhou is an official position from the five grades. According to the usual practice, the new science and technology jinshi often starts from the Qipin county order. Of course, it is not uncommon for officials to be directly awarded official positions above the sixth rank. It's just that those cases with special identities did not send a large amount of money between the officials and the high-ranking officials early. is that his back is tough, his father is a duke, his mother is a princess, and he has a terrifying monstrous power.

After the sect leader Zhong Yuanyu and the hall masters carefully discussed, Xing Bing gave Fang Yiyuan the task that he changed his identity after going down the mountain, and entered Beijing as a member of the Fang family to take the exam. After winning the Jinshi. He went to Fuzhou to serve as the governor.

It sounds simple, but the process is extremely complex. It's definitely not as simple as another world, where all of a sudden a fool is parachuted into a unit to be in charge. As a Zhizhou, you must have a clear background and have a convincing resume and strength. Even if you have an official seal, others have to see if you are an official. Fortunately, Da Chu respects Wen, and no one has anything to say when Xinke Jinshi serves as Zhizhou. What's more, Fang Yiyuan, the governor of Fuzhou, is still the princess of Wenyuan. Pick out from a pool of new entrants.

In the eyes of many people, Fuzhou is a poor place.

That was an old concept a year ago. Nowadays, Fuzhou has changed a lot. When Fang Yiyuan came here, he found that Fuzhou had become a real harbor city. Moreover, the area of the city is gradually expanding.

A Yang family guard led his subordinates and others, and greeted Fang Yiyuan into the official office with a smile.

Fang Yiyuan has a lot to do. Among them, the most important thing is to maintain order in Fuzhou and block the foreign forces that covet this place. Turn Fuzhou into an important city linking Anzhou.

Leaving Guiyuanzong to go down the mountain to serve as the governor of Fuzhou is of course beneficial.

The Yang family's guards gave Fang Yiyuan a jade bottle. He uncorked the bottle. It was found that it contained five pure Three-Turn Vitality Pills.

The next words of the Yang family guard shocked and rejoiced Fang Yiyuan.

"My young master said that this is the quota of pills for Lord Yang for the first month. Since then, it has been distributed in accordance with this pattern every month. ”

When he was on the Mountain of Guiyuan Sect, Fang Yiyuan's monthly pill was three Yuan Qi pills per month. This is also the result of Yang Tianhong handing over a large number of pills to the sect. Originally, Fang Yiyuan felt that this kind of treatment had far surpassed that of other sects. But who would have thought. I went down the mountain and went around the circle, and I was admitted to the Jinshi, and the real reward was actually waiting for me here.

The ancients said well: there is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book.

The ancients, don't deceive me!

......

The north of the state of Chu. The drought is getting worse. Lianzhou, in particular, is located at the heart of the disaster. All the crops in the whole state have been lost.

At the beginning of the year, officials dispatched grain from all over the country to alleviate the danger of the disaster in Lianzhou. However, the transfer of grain from the south to the north has always been difficult. The end of the canal is already over when it reaches the capital. The grain disembarked from Qizhou and had to travel by land for another month before it could reach Lianzhou.

Hunger is such a thing, and it is absolutely unbearable. The hungry people had no other way but to leave their homes and flee the famine far away.

First, there were a few villages.

Then, it became several townships.

After that, there was a collective exodus of the whole county.

180,000 households under the rule of Lianzhou have now fled to only 23 out of 10. Hundreds of thousands of victims poured towards the capital. I don't know who started to say it: Jingshi has food.

That's right, Jingshi has food.

It is home to the largest granary in the world. It is enough to feed hundreds of thousands of victims for more than three months. However, it's one thing to have food, it's another thing to let you eat it.

The victims are a swarm of unruly locusts. They went straight down the official road, leaving nothing to eat in the places they passed along the way. Fortunately, the local officials did their best to scrape together some food, and finally there was no tragedy of cannibalism.

The drought is indeed a natural disaster.

Even state officials have nothing to do about it. Lianzhou has a special topography and no rivers around it, so it has always been a dry and rainless place in Chu State. The drought has been going on for two whole years, and now there is no water from the wells. There is no second option other than to go out and flee the famine.

Neighboring states and counties are on the verge of a great enemy, so they should be prepared early. The garrison set up camp on the border of the state capital and denied entry to any victims. If they want to force the attack, the officers and men will definitely not be merciful.

The victims seem to know that when they go to those places, death awaits them. They made it all the way to Fuzhou, and although the amount of food served along the way was small, and each person was one rice ball a day, it was much better than starving to death. In this way, the news spread among the victims. The original statement that "there is food in the capital" is no longer believed. The victims only believed that "there is food in Anzhou" and that "you can go to Anju if you get on the boat from Fuzhou".

The "cell" intelligence network played an important role. It's easy to get the victims to run away from home. But it is simply impossible for them to choose Anju as their destination from the beginning. Anzhou is too far away, and the Chinese people have the idea that it is difficult to leave their homeland when they leave. What's more, when the government decides the place of exile for criminals, it often chooses Anju. In many people's minds, Anju is an incomparably distant wilderness. There is nothing there.

Everyone will believe that there is food in the capital. In fact, this is also true. However, in order to prepare for the disaster, the entire capital has been put on alert. The number of victims is too much, hundreds of thousands, and the capital is simply unable to resettle them. Even if the granary is opened for relief, what should be done with these people after they have eaten?

Let them return to Lianzhou?

Don't think about it, this kind of thing is simply not possible until the drought is alleviated.

Disperse the victims to other states and counties?

No official was willing to accept the victims. The reason is simple, the whole Dachu is less land and more people. There is not enough land in this county, and now there are a large number of poor ghosts from outside, isn't this looking for something to do for themselves? To put it mildly, even if these victims are forcibly accepted, I am afraid that they will be beaten to death by the local peasants.

The way countries around the world respond to disasters has never changed. If you don't listen to the order to return to your hometown, then you will be beaten and killed.

All the way from Lianzhou. The victims have seen a lot about their current predicament. There is also an extremely deep understanding.

When you go home, you can only starve to death.

It's simply not possible to get into other states. That will only make you die faster.

Fuzhou is his only choice.

Most of the victims had never been on a boat. Many people start vomiting as soon as they get on board. But it doesn't matter, as long as you get to Anju, everything is not a problem.

Looking at the dense crowd of victims on the dock, Gao Tianwu and Dongfang Xiao only felt that their hands and feet were cold. It's shocking.

Despite the presence of a large number of armed men at the scene to maintain order, the victims scrambled to climb onto the boat. In fact, everyone has a place, even if they can't get on this trip, wait for a month, and the fleet will come back to carry people. But. No one will give up the opportunity in front of them. They have been frightened by God's cruelty and ruthlessness, and feel that if they can't get on the ship, they may lose their chance to live completely.

The chaos lasted for a long time. In the end, each ship exceeded its originally projected capacity. Luckily, the routes are nearshore and there are no reef shoals. The only trouble was that the crew had to struggle to get through the dense crowd in the cabin when the food was distributed every day.

At the end of the trip, all the ships were turned into a stinking and filthy mobile garbage dump. As a last resort, Dongfang Xiao had to dock in Anzhou for two days and specially ordered someone to clean up the feces in the ship. If they return to Fuzhou like this, those crazy victims will pour in, and in a closed and dirty environment, I am afraid that they will not be able to come to Anzhou alive, and they will die at sea.

Gao Tianwu was originally very resistant to doing this kind of thing. It's just that he got Yang Tianhong's elixir later, and he had to acquiesce to reality. It wasn't until this shipment of the victims that Gao Tianwu really felt that his efforts were not in vain. The rules of heaven and earth have always been very strict in the evaluation of good and evil. This is the pulling of the dead to life, which is the real merit.

A total of 330,000 victims were transported to Anju. After the winter, the officials of Lianzhou took a walk around the countryside under their rule. Looking at the empty house, where even the barking of dogs could not be heard, many officials howled and cried on the spot.

Almost the entire state was empty. More than 300,000 people, not just Lianzhou. There are also large exodus from other nearby states and counties. They were undoubtedly lucky compared to those who starved to death in the wilderness in the past. Anju needs a large population to develop, and there are enough fields there to feed its people. It's just really strange that the land transportation from Suizhou to Anzhou has been isolated for hundreds of years.

......

The official number of soldiers of the Xuanhuo Legion exceeded 50,000.

From the perspective of the recruits, it is really very difficult and desirable to get a flame-shaped symbol on their chest and arms that symbolizes the Xuanhuo Legion.

Only those who meet the standards of all military training subjects are recognized members of the Xuanhuo Legion. God knows which bastard came up with so many perverted training methods. Nima, the good end of the road does not go, but to set up a crossbar more than three meters high from the ground, along the width of only 20 centimeters of the crossbar. And. The speed must be kept at a trot, if it is slow, even if it passes safely, it is still unqualified.

Crossing obstacles is even more nerve-wracking. You have to crawl on your stomach. Five centimeters from the top of the head and back, iron hooks and steel needles hung upside down. If you go up a little bit, you will immediately be stabbed with blood. The ground is also not dry and flat. It's a foul-smelling mud pool. If you're not careful, mud will pour into your mouth, and you won't be able to vomit or swallow.

Spear piercing, which must hit the target in the same position with 100 consecutive strokes. There can be no pauses, and the rhythm of the three breaths must not be chaotic.

Knife chopping requires a single knife to cut off a wood the thickness of an adult's arm. It is also a hundred times in a row, as long as there is a knife that does not cut the log, it also does not meet the requirements.

Here are just a few of the representative subjects. There are also other things such as swimming, long-distance running, weight-bearing cross-country and so on...... Every subject is enough to torture the recruits to ********. At the end of each day's training, the first thing I do when I return to the barracks is to lie down on the bed and gasp for air. I'd rather lie down like this forever and never get up again.

After getting the badge and becoming an official member of the Xuanhuo Legion, the treatment immediately became eye-catching. In addition to the extreme preferential treatment in terms of clothing, weapons, and salary, even the food standards are unbelievably good. More importantly, regular soldiers can participate in combat operations against the Yue barbarians, and can continue to gain more silver and land by accumulating merits.

Big Lee is a legend of the boot camp. A lot of people don't know his real name. Just casually called him Li big man. This guy was born with a big head and stuttering. It makes sense of common sense. This kind of person who has always been teased by others, and that's it for this life. Who would have thought that when Big Li entered the recruit camp of the Xuanhuo Legion, he was actually the first person to pass all the training items. This guy fought bravely, and in less than half a year, he killed hundreds of Yue barbarians and was successfully promoted to team officer. A few months ago, Big Lee was given a leave of absence. Returning home with more than 300 taels of silver, he shocked all the neighbors and villagers nearby. The next day, a matchmaker came to the door to say goodbye. Moreover, the woman is also a well-known local beautiful girl.

Examples of success in life are right in front of you. Alive, you can reach out and touch it.

It's as simple as that. He could. Can't I?

The Flame Legion's recruitment plan has been going on all along. While the fleet brought a large number of victims from Fuzhou, it also brought a large number of recruits recruited by Yang Yi. Yang Tianhong has been controlling the number of soldiers recruited locally in Anzhou. Although military equipment is very important, it should not give up the development of civil affairs because of this. It will be at least a decade before the mass recruitment of military personnel from the local population of Anju is possible. For the time being, the scale of the Xuanhuo Legion should not be expanded, as long as the suppression of the Yue barbarians is maintained and the balance of the situation in Anzhou is maintained, it is almost enough.

The basis of the transformation of a recruit into a veteran is to kill the enemy in battle.

The Yue people have a large number of barbarians, which can fully meet this demand.

Yang Tianhong's attention turned to other aspects.

Last month, he entered the Great Perfection of Foundation Building. What is urgently needed now is to become a Jindan Grandmaster as soon as possible.

......

After arranging all the recent affairs of the Jiedu Embassy, there are still dozens of Yang family guards guarding the door of the inner room. These people are Yang Tianhong's most trusted subordinates, in fact, this is also the case.

The space inside the Linglong Treasure Lock has not changed much. Passages, cells, medicine gardens, animal farms...... There is also the Five Elements Great Array located in the core position.

Huang Shiren has become an out-and-out butler of the exquisite treasure lock. The life of this guy is obviously much better now than when Yang Tianhong first opened the treasure lock. It was still that thin figure, but the muscles on the chest muscles and arms had bulged out from under the clothes, and the face was no longer sallow, and the skin was very white, and from time to time there was a flush representing health. If it weren't for the eyes that were always looking around, Huang Shiren would definitely be a well-known beautiful man. Walking on the road, the attraction to women can definitely exceed 90 points. It is even possible to make some women who have too violent physiological reactions incontinent on the spot, wet all over their bodies, and speak like moans.

Wannian ginseng followed behind Huang Shiren's ass. This guy doesn't look like an old monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years. It's fat, it's fat, and its cheeks are bulging high on both sides, like two jujubes in its mouth, and it won't shrink even if you pick up your fist and smash your cheeks. That face looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties. He still has a beard on his lips. But he had a pigtail on his head, his body was bare, and he was wearing only a big red belly pocket.

It's really weird. is obviously dressed as a three- or five-year-old doll, but his appearance is a mature and honest adult. The belly pocket is very large, and the round belly of the ginseng spirit is tightly wrapped. The bottom of the belly pocket also grows to cover the knees. However, ginseng is also divided into male and female, and the gender characteristics of this guy are too prominent. In front of Yang Tianhong, the ginseng essence smacked his fingers, but the thing that belonged to a man in the middle of his legs was straight and straight, which made people very unhappy to watch. Ginseng Jing obviously has no concept of this, and puffs up his stomach at Yang Tianhong from time to time, as if he is issuing a call for competition in an extremely unique way: If you don't come to compare, who is bigger? (To be continued.) )
