Chapter 283: Giving

Linyu is more than 400 miles away from Lingzhi.

From the perspective of the Hereafter, the distance is not far away.

But in this world, a large army carrying baggage often marches no more than thirty to forty miles.

What's more, Zhao Yun deliberately slowed down his speed, and more than 12,000 new and veteran soldiers mixed into foot cavalry, with Xiahou Lanbu as the front army, pressing the speed and moving forward.

Along the way, there were people from the countryside who came to meet them.

With the wine, meat, pigs and sheep that he made up, he waited on the side of the road, but he was quite happy to welcome the king.

This move is not much recognition of the new Taishou Mansion, and Gongsun Yan's decree cannot be unimpeded in the township for the time being.

Purely frightened.

Liaoxi has been suffering from the Hu people for many years, and the people living in this land have also reacted in order to survive.

The eldest surname settled in the manor and the fort, and the people of Qianshou gathered the children of the township to build a wall to protect themselves under the organization of the village elders.

But whether it is the manor fort or the wall of the people, it can still cope with the small-scale bandits and Hu people.

If there are a little more enemies, the big households will be ruined to avoid disasters, and they will be given grain in exchange for temporary peace.

In the face of a larger regular army, these people who gathered in the countryside were helpless.

After the former army of Xiahou Lan, who intended to show off his wealth, swaggered past, many people were already terrified, hiding behind the wall of loess, shivering.

When Zhao Yunzhongjun's march came, looking at the fluttering Zhao Zi Daxu, there was only one word in everyone's hearts - kneeling.

So they took the initiative to send a letter expressing their willingness to support the army with some grain.

Zhao Yun is not short of these grains and grasses, what he needs is an attitude from these people.

One will help Gongsun Yan to completely gather the attitude of Liaoxi next.

Zhao Yun's armor was clearly riding on the black clouds, and the inability to run made it very unhappy.

Zhao Yun's leather-gloved hand gently patted the side of its neck to soothe.

He took out the sugar cube wrapped in oiled paper from the horse bag and leaned over to feed it.

It chewed and shook its mane happily, and saw Zhao Yun feeding Bai Yun who was accompanying him to the side, and immediately stomped his hooves in anger.

The horseshoe stomped on the ground.

Bai Yun ignored it and meekly arched Zhao Yun's palm with his nose.

"Captain Zhao."

Lao Lei in front of him came to report: "There are old people in the countryside asking to see them in the front. ”

Zhao Yun followed Lao Lei over.

I saw dozens of Qianshou people kneeling beside the galloping road.

Ragged knelt in the withered grass beside the road, shivering.

There were several truckloads of grain bags around them, as well as a few skinny black pigs and a few chickens.

The first one was an old man with gray hair.

When Zhao Yun saw these villagers, he remembered something, his expression softened, and he turned over and dismounted.

"Uncle, please get up."

When I got closer, the old man was even more rickety.

This old man didn't dare to get up, but he couldn't withstand Zhao Yun's strength, so he held his elbow and held him up.

He looked up and saw that it was a very handsome young man, with a tall and unusually tall armor.

But when he spoke to him, he bent down slightly, and his face was very meek and peaceful.

In this troubled world, to live to an old age, Lao Suo is also insightful.

Early life, the young people in the township cheered up and were on guard.

Later, I saw that these transit soldiers were neat and well-dressed, and their clothes and armor were distinct.

The whole body reveals a rich word.

After thinking about it, the old man brought some grain to pay the protection fee.

I only hope that the army will not intrude.

He glanced at Zhao Yun, and guessed in his heart that this heroic warrior didn't know what kind of high-ranking official he was in the army, but he was close to him.

Lao Suo's heart settled for a moment, and he arched his hand and said: "The grass people are nearby Raoping Lizheng, I heard that Captain Zhao's army passed by, and I came to meet Captain Zhao." ”

Zhao Yun knew their intentions, and said with a pleasant face: "It is Zhao Yun, go to Linyu to rebel, if the old man has something, but it doesn't matter." ”

Unexpectedly, the young man with a kind attitude in front of him was the commander of the first army, and the white-haired old man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground again: "The grass people don't know that it is Captain Zhao in front of him, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

Zhao Yun held his elbow steadily, and didn't let him kneel: "Don't be afraid, boss, I'm just waiting to crusade against the Linyu rebels." Please forgive me if it disturbs the people. ”

Then patiently finished the journey to Linyu: "There are thieves attached to the Yuan family in Linyu, we go to fight against the thieves, carry out a dignified battle, raise the banner of righteousness, if there are soldiers who harass the people, they will be severely punished." ”

The news in the countryside is blocked, and Lao Suo only knew.

Those wolf-like tax collectors Cao, from their point of view, a lot of grain taxes to be taken away, but I don't know which jackal devoured them all, and they didn't hand over them at all.

They tightened their belts, paid their taxes hungry, and were greedy for ink by those thieves.

Lao Suo secretly hated in his heart, and hurriedly beckoned the people behind him to bring rice, grain and pork to offer.

Zhao Yun looked at them and shook his head.

These people are not those who need to be deterred and subdued, but those who need to be treated gently and co-opted.

Zhao Yun was not only unrestricted, but also briefly asked Ming Laosu about the situation in the township, knowing that after their crops failed this year, he allocated ten truckloads of grain from the army for them to spend the winter.

Lao Suo was blinded by his hand.

Soldiers are like combs, and bandits are like grates.

Historically, only the army has only exploited the people, how could there ever be such a miracle?

Lao Suo refused again and again, and he would never dare to accept it.

Zhao Yunwen said with relief: "Don't worry, these are all relief grains allocated by the Taishou Mansion." ”

"After getting rid of the rebels in Linyu, there will be more tax rebate and poverty alleviation policies, which will definitely allow everyone to spend the winter safely."

Although Zhao Yun never gets involved in government affairs, he still knows the policies.

What's more, he understands Gongsun Yan's intentions, and he is vigorously promoting the new policy along the way.

Lao Suo seemed to listen to a book from heaven, and still couldn't believe that there would be such a good thing in the world.

Until Zhao Yun got back on his horse and left, his mind was still in chaos.

I watched as a line of armor soldiers walked past without squinting.

Looking at the extra pile of grain bags around him.

Lao Suo looked at Zhao Yun's back from afar.

The villagers who came with him were also enlightened.

Until a stunned young man, untied the grain bag, took out a handful of wheat grains from it, and blew away the white foam attached to the wheat grains, he said excitedly: "Li Chang, it's really wheat, it's wheat." ”

At this time, with the agility of not matching his age, he pounced on these grain bags: "Really give, really give." ”

He grabbed two handfuls of wheat with both hands and muttered to himself: "I have lived for sixty years, and for the first time, I have received rice grain from the government." ”

Who would have thought of giving them a grain of wheat if they had to be scavenged from them.

In the year of the great famine, the bark and grass roots were eaten up, and the living people were also eaten up, and no matter how many relief documents were issued by the government, there was never a grain of wheat in their hands.

The old man shuddered violently: "Hurry up, Lin Er, you run fast, go and call my grandson, order a few young people in the township, catch up with Captain Zhao's team, and help transport grain and grass." ”

This time, the king hugged his thighs, sincerely!
