Chapter 23 Tenant Farming
Huang Zhang still came over with Zhuang Chengfeng.
As soon as he entered the East Courtyard, Zhuang Chengfeng's brows began to wrinkle, the smell of medicine here was too strong, and there were still a few medicine jars in the courtyard, just like a big pharmacy.
"Why are you putting so many potions here?"
Faced with Zhuang Chengfeng's question, Huang Zhang didn't answer too much, he looked at the aunt who was preparing the meal on the side and asked, "Have you not eaten since yesterday?" ”
The aunt shook her head.
"No, I don't know if these little girls are so stubborn, put the food in, they don't touch it, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid I'm going to starve to death."
Hearing his aunt's words, Huang Zhang frowned, he picked up two pots of meat porridge and pushed the door in.
In order to accommodate these women, Huang Zhang specially dismantled the three connected rooms in the east wing to form a large room, so that they could be squeezed together in a pile, after all, they had just escaped from hell, they were vigilant, and they had no sense of security, so they were squeezed together in order to let down their guard.
When these women saw Huang Zhang push the door in, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in their eyes, but it was only for a moment, and then it dimmed. At the beginning, it was Huang Zhang who shot the authentic vicious dog with two arrows, and these women all saw it, and they were not so wary of Huang Zhang.
Huang Zhang put the porridge on the table, picked up the bowl on the table, and scooped the porridge bowl by bowl, and then he picked up one of the bowls and handed it to a woman in front.
"Here, eat."
The woman took the bowl tremblingly, but just looked at Huang Zhang and didn't move her mouth.
Seeing this, Huang Zhang smiled slightly, brought another bowl from the table, and took a sip himself.
With this smile, the woman also let down her guard and slowly leaned over.
"Look, it's okay, it's safe."
Seeing that Huang Zhang took a sip, the woman began to drink the porridge slowly.
After having the first one, the women in the back accepted the meat porridge handed by Huang Zhang in turn.
Watching them eat from slow to fast, Huang Zhang gently reminded: "Don't worry, slow down, there is meat porridge." ”
Watching the women eat all the meat porridge in the bowl, Huang Zhang also laughed heartily.
"Don't worry, the Tian family has been destroyed by me. I won't mention what happened to you before, I don't ask about your previous identity, from today on, you will have a different life, when your body is well, you can mention it to me at any time, my name is Huang Zhang, I am your friend, pay more attention to rest during this time, only when the body is well, you can move freely. ”
After speaking, Huang Zhang slowly retreated, and when he left, he didn't forget to close the door.
Zhuang Chengfeng, who was standing outside the door, had already seen the scene in the room, but because of Hu Yier's obstruction, he still didn't go in the end, and when he saw Huang Zhang coming out, Zhuang Chengfeng asked coldly, "What's the matter with them?" ”
Although the women in the room were tightly wrapped in blankets, Zhuang Chengfeng could see at a glance that they had been seriously injured before, and the dodgy eyes could see that they had suffered mental pain.
Zhuang Chengfeng had seen such a woman somewhere, but there were only one or two, there had never been so many like here, at this moment, he was a little angry, but reason told him that it might not be Huang Zhang's doing, so he had to ask clearly.
"The Tian family did it, and they were hidden behind the ancestral hall by the Tian family, exclusively for their lewd pleasure."
"What about the Tian family?" Zhuang Chengfeng asked.
"I asked, in addition to the dead Tian Hongsheng, the head of the Tian family, and his second son Tian Ya, there are still two left, Tian Ji and Tian Su, Tian Ji went to Wucheng to move the soldiers, Tian Su is nowhere to be found, as for the rest of the Tian family, they have been torn apart by the angry Tian Jiabao tenants, and if they want to take revenge, they can only find Tian Ji and Tian Sue."
Hearing this, Zhuang Chengfeng clenched the sword in his hand.
"If I touch it, I will be the head of a sword!"
Hearing this, Huang Zhang smiled.
"You better wait for your strength to recover, let's talk about it first, I can't solve your pipa hole for the time being, don't look for me, it will naturally unravel when the time comes, and before that, I can't do anything."
“……”
Seeing Zhuang Chengfeng's deflated expression, Hu Yier covered her mouth and chuckled lightly.
In the following days, Zhuang Chengfeng was like a piece of dog skin plaster, following Huang Zhang closely, except for going to the toilet to sleep, he was inseparable, and he didn't know what Zhuang Chengfeng was thinking, but Huang Zhang treated him like air and didn't care at all.
And in the past few days, he has also solved Tian Jiajun's problem.
Speaking of the solution of this problem, it is thanks to those tenant farmers in Tianjiabao.
Huang Zhang originally thought that the soldiers of Tianjia's army were all half-peasants and half-soldiers, with their own land, and their status was higher than that of the tenant farmers in Tianjiabao, but later he realized that he was wrong.
Many tenant farmers in Tianjiabao ran to Huang Zhang to plead with him, saying that their husbands and sons were now locked up, and hoped that Huang Zhang would release them.
After Huang Zhang's inquiry, it turned out that the father and son of the Tian family were even more stingy than they thought.
The Tian family's army now has an almost general composition that the Tian family father and son draw from the tenant farmers, of course, the weapons must be supplied by the Tian family father and son, but they have to be returned after the battle.
To put it bluntly, these tenant farmers farmed the land for the Tian family and gave them their lives, so it would be hellish if they could have combat effectiveness.
However, this is a good thing for Huang Zhang, under the adoption of the tenant farmers, the original Tian family army of more than 300 people, there are less than 200 people left, and there are still many tenant farmers among the 200 people.
Then it will be easy to do later, Huang Zhang directly put these tenant farmers out, hired these people as a logistics brigade, temporarily took care of the surrendered Tian Jiajun for Huang Zhang, and promised that if they did well, they would be transferred to farmers or promoted and appointed at that time.
In this way, the defective tenant farmers worked hard one by one and showed themselves one after another.
After the plan of tenant control was laid out, the matter of Tian Jiajun was completely solved.
But then, Huang Zhang has more important things to do.
Don't forget, how many people does he have now? Tian Ji went to Wucheng to move rescue troops again, if he used his current people to deal with the officials and soldiers in Wucheng, it would undoubtedly be an egg to hit a stone.
So right now, what he wants to do is to expand the army.
He named the more than 40 people under Niu Zhantian the Shanzi Battalion, and the Shanzi Battalion all used the most advanced equipment, including the personnel who were added later.
Of course, he will definitely not ask the villagers to make up for it, with the current situation of the villagers, making up for it will only reduce the combat effectiveness of the Shanzi battalion, and he wants personnel with certain combat experience.
And the personnel he said with a certain combat experience, coincidentally, Xiaocangshan is everywhere.
The next step is to gather these fighters everywhere and gradually form a force with strong combat effectiveness.
