Chapter 226: Internal Affairs
The wind and snow were howling, and Yang Zheng took his own soldiers to inspect the training of the slaves in the major tuntians.
The slaves braved the cold and stabbed wooden spears in the wind and snow.
There are qualifications to become regular soldiers, and everyone is quite hardworking.
This also shows their desire to change their identity.
It's just that many people stand barefoot in the snow, not even a pair of straw sandals, and the clothes on their bodies are also miserable, shiny, black and shiny, and I don't know how many generations have been passed down from ancestors.
Some people didn't even have these strips of rags, and creatively made a straw coat out of hay.
Their faces were red from the cold, their toes were bruised from the cold, and I don't know how they survived and survived until now.
Yang Zheng himself was wearing a decent mink fur, thick leather shoes, and the soldiers around him were also wearing wolf velvet on the outside and iron armor on the inside.
Standing in front of the slaves, it seems a little different.
Yang Zheng went to check the houses of the slaves on the edge of the tuntian, low and dilapidated, men, women and children huddled together and shivering, even in such a cold weather, many slaves' children did not have much clothing on their bodies.
The woman and the child cowered and fell to their knees on the cold ground, not daring to speak.
"Get up." Yang Zheng was really uncomfortable to watch.
I inspected more than a dozen households, and most of them were so miserable.
Although he is a slave, he is also a human being.
Yang Zheng had a calm face and left with his own soldiers, and met several small villages in the snow and wind on the way, and there was a faint sound of dogs barking.
aroused Yang Zheng's interest.
Because there was no notice in advance, more than a dozen men with knives and bows vigilantly blocked the entrance of the village.
"Who are you?" A man in his thirties with a broken leg shouted.
"Patrol the Qiang Mansion." The pro-soldier showed the bronze medal.
The man hurriedly bowed, "I don't know if the official has arrived, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”
Yang Zheng said gently: "It's cold, I'm just here to spend the night." ”
Looking up and down at the leading man, wearing a sheep jacket, "Are you a retired soldier?" ”
The man immediately stood up straight, with a gleam on his face, "If you return to your nobles, your subordinates were originally sword and shield bearers of the Reebok Battalion, and they were disabled after chasing and killing Fuqu Luoba, and they were arranged here as the chief. ”
One hundred houses are one mile, almost the village chief, and ten miles is a pavilion.
Men and women of all ages from the village came to watch.
Yang Zheng looked at it roughly, all the ethnic groups lived together, and it was obvious that they were waiting to return.
But everyone has clothes, and although they are thin, they are much stronger than slaves.
Walking into the house, it is spacious and bright, and a warmth comes to the face.
The chief asked people to bring a few hot wheat cakes and broth, and after the soldiers tried them, Yang Zheng moved his mouth.
A bowl of hot soup is in the stomach, and the whole person is also warm.
"This year's harvest is good, and there is no forced labor in Huqiang Mansion, everyone is healthy, and they can go into the mountains to hunt and catch fish when they are free, which I didn't dare to think about before." The chief is enthusiastic and talks a lot.
Yang Zheng nodded, Lu Zhi was under the jurisdiction of governing the people and waiting for return, and the slaves were managed by the Huqiang Mansion, and the gap between the two sides was somewhat obvious.
Of course, the slaves and tuntian guests of this era were already miserable, and it was not easy to survive with a full meal.
"If you come from afar, you won't bother, and if you have an order, just speak up." The chief saw that Yang Zheng was not very interested, so he gave his hand.
At night, I just feel unusually cold.
The cold wind whistling outside,
The pro-soldiers were huddled.
Yang Zheng couldn't sleep coldly.
It feels like the house is leaking everywhere.
After barely tossing for a night, at dawn, he said goodbye to his soldiers and left.
In the past, it was a struggle for survival, and the soldiers were in chaos, and they were killing every step.
But now it seems that this stage has passed.
The road to confrontation with the Sima family is bound to be long, and improving people's livelihood is also enhancing competitiveness.
And competitiveness is not only hard power, but also soft power.
The people are too poor, sooner or later there will be problems, and they are destined to not go long.
After returning to the Western Capital, Yang Zheng immediately visited Lu Zhi.
Explaining his intentions, Lu Zhi took Yang Zheng to the back room.
But I saw a familiar thing - kang.
By the time of the Qin and Han dynasties, this thing had already appeared.
It's just that ordinary people don't need it, and burning firewood is also a big expense, and it mostly appears in the homes of official eunuchs.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was boiling, and many things were annihilated in the flames of war.
Yongliang is the concentration of war, even if Cao Wei established the country, Shu came to "restore the Han family" at every turn, and the Qianghu Rebellion was set off at every turn, and the productivity was greatly damaged.
"It's enough to keep you out the cold." Yang Zheng said happily.
"Next year, you can plant some mulberry hemp in a land that is not suitable for farming, men can perform martial arts, women can make some straw shoes and leather shoes, and Huqiang Mansion can exchange food for food, I will do this." Since receiving the roll, the smile on Lu Zhi's face has been increasing day by day.
Sima Yi's butcher's knife threatens everyone.
Lu Zhi has two sons, a daughter, and a grandson.
Yang Zheng wanted to arrange a quiet errand for his son, but was refused.
Only 20 acres of land were opened outside the city, and the family cultivated their own fields.
How could Yang Zheng not respect such a person?
In the entire Wei State, there are few people who are not greedy or occupying, and the army and localities are almost openly bought and sold.
After Sima and his son took power, there were some changes, but what changed was only the center of Luoyang, and the local area was still controlled by the nobles.
Water can't be splashed in, needles can't be pricked.
Sima and his son wanted to sit firmly, so they naturally wanted to encircle them, and they also followed this path, otherwise the scholars would not support him and overthrow Cao Shuang.
"My nephew thinks that there is still something to be done, so I bought some silk and hemp from Shuzhong in Guanzhong."
As soon as Yang Zheng spoke, Lu Zhi knew the meaning of his words, and raised his eyebrows, "Shuzhong? ”
There are some things that you should know sooner or later.
"Take care of it yourself, you must be hidden." Lu Zhi sighed.
"My nephew knows."
Luoyang, Chang'an, Xuchang, Yecheng and other metropolises Yang Zheng can't take it, but the world is not only these big cities, especially the channels in Shuzhong, all of which are cheaper than Yang Zheng.
People on both sides are already in contact.
Suzaku Qisu has already made contact with Zhao Aqi.
Shuzhong is quite satisfied with Hehuangma, and there is no way to be dissatisfied, only this one.
Salt Horse's profits are rolling in, and they are rising every quarter.
With money, it's easy to get things done.
Yang Zheng formed a logistics unit with the disabled soldiers as the backbone.
Although fighting a war depends on the brave fighting of front-line soldiers, it also depends on the ability of logistics and supply.
There are many mountains and rivers in Longyou, you can't rely on Liu Heng every time, right?
Building bridges and roads, reading books and transporting supplies, and building barracks all require professionals.
After the prestige of the Huqiang Mansion was established, every government decree was unimpeded, and the slaves, the returnees, and the people responded positively.
Slaves, the most enthusiastic about returning.
However, the logistics team, in addition to physical strength, also needs a certain amount of technology.
The Qiang people's temperament is not very suitable, but Hu Han is not bad.
For more than ten days, the logistics team was in trouble.
It is undoubtedly a good thing to be able to eat public food this year, and the logistics team does not have to go into battle to work hard, so naturally there are many responders.
Six thousand Hu Han young and strong people were selected, and the logistics team was formed.
Yang Zheng also gave the name of the flat base camp.
Specializing in repairing bridges and roads, and various fortifications.
The first task of the Pinglei battalion was to build a large kang for the major tuntian areas, with separate men and women and central heating.
Burn some cow dung hay and fill it with a small amount of dry firewood, which is enough for one night.
Straw sandals are also slowly being supplied.
Wrap some cloth around it, and you can cope with this cold winter.
And the northwest of this era, regardless of the Qiang and Han, are resistant to bitter cold.
Those who could not endure the winter died long ago.
