Volume 1 The Rebirth of the Hidden Dragon Chapter 130 Local Wealthy Clans

The Qianyuan Arrow is an immortal product in this realm, and the broken arm can also be regarded as an evil thing above the Xuan Rank, so it can be used as a magic weapon for the formation platform and the eye of the array, and it also strengthens the defense of the sect.

The Izuying River is the Great Plains, which already belongs to the territory of Liangzhou, which is the granary of Izumo Country, but the city lord of this state is the most aggrieved of the eight city lords of Izumo, because Liangzhou is vast and sparsely populated, most of the land is in the hands of the big clans, and there are many relatives and nobles who enclose land for self-support.

The lord of Liangzhou seems to hold the granary of the world, but in fact he is just the master of the acres of land for others, except for the quarterly grain tax registration but does not have the power to control the grain, the gentry are the actual rulers who firmly grasp the lifeline of grain.

Entering Liangzhou is the endless fertile field, the golden rice fields exude the fragrance of rice after autumn, the tenants are grabbing the crops in the field, and now the grain continues to be in various places, the price of rice is rising, the reason why the grain has not been harvested before the winter, it is precisely because the big clans have all the manpower to build the granary, at this time the grain is not sold is waiting for the peak to reach the highest point before putting the grain.

Shangguan Luoyi looked at the large wheat fields and couldn't help but say: "The south is short of grain, but the north is hoarding, aren't you afraid that the Northern Hun will make them lose all their money." โ€

Yun Hao said: "Since ancient times, the big clans have raised private soldiers, they are not bad for money, and the ordnance is the highest configuration, and there is food as a guarantee, so they are not afraid to gather troops if they have food." โ€

Shangguan Luo Yi was puzzled: "The iron hooves of the Northern Hungarians are known for their fierceness, how can private soldiers match them. โ€

Yun Hao explained: "The Northern Hungarian cavalry is flexible but why they are not moving, it is precisely because they are good at riding and shooting, and the arrow shaft still needs to be provided by the Shenmu Society, and the iron tools are even more scarce. โ€

"Furthermore, it is not enough to rely on martial arts in this war, the biggest difference between a million armor and a million soldiers is a 'A' word, the soldier loses half of the enemy without armor, and the private soldiers of the big clan are limited in number but are well-equipped, and those cotton clothes and leather armor in North Hungary cannot be compared."

Shangguan Luoyi has never been on the battlefield, only relying on the strength and combat power as a reference, although it is not a paper talk, but he does not understand the actual situation on the battlefield, if he can really go to the battlefield and experience the smoke firsthand, he must have a deeper understanding.

This time it was through Liangzhou, and it was also an official road, in addition to the fields along the road, it was difficult to find an inn to stay, and the sky was getting dark, I thought I would deal with it on the side of the road overnight, but I encountered a team of cavalry on the road.

The cavalry composed of a seven-man squad was freshly dressed and brightly armored, carrying a horse lance, a bow and arrow in the saddle, and a scimitar was buckled around his waist. Look at these cavalrymen with a small flag tied behind them, with the word 'king' written on them,

"Parking check!" The cavalry captain stopped the carriage.

Zhang Baobao was afraid of the bandits, but he was not afraid of the local soldiers, so he stood up and pointed at the orchid and said angrily: "What a big dog, do you know that this is a carriage and horse in the palace!" โ€

The cavalry captain glanced at the slightly broken frame and said, "There is a curfew in the state, and you are not allowed to wander outside after the end of the day. โ€

Zhang Baobao suffered a lot of idleness along the way, and he couldn't help but get up at this time, took out the palace clothes from the package and compared them to his body and said: "Look carefully, this is the inner attendant from the three-grade chicken suit, and there are a few heads in the collision with the big inner waiter." โ€

The cavalry captain was not stunned, but raised the horse lance to pick off the official uniform in Zhang Baobao's hand, at this time another cavalry whispered a few words in the captain's ear, and the cavalry captain's attitude immediately changed, and his voice was also a lot kinder, and said: "It turned out to be a big official from Beijing, it seems that it was a misunderstanding, this place is desolate This adult is afraid that he has missed Sutou, and he knows that there is a Zhuangzi nearby, so we will lead the way as a reparation for your sins." โ€

Zhang Baobao snorted from his nose and immediately said, "Count you as acquaintances, lead the way." โ€

Shangguan Luoyi in the car naturally heard the conversation outside, and said with some vigilance: "Teacher, there is something wrong with those people." โ€

Yun Hao has been closing his eyes and recuperating, and he didn't even raise his eyes and said, "What's the problem with kindly taking us to find a place to live." โ€

"The armor on those people is not a regulation of the imperial court, since it is not the Liangzhou garrison, how can they inspect the curfew, and besides, when Zhang Neiguan shows his identity, he should be taken to the local post station or the official office, but to some grange household." Shangguan Luoyi said something suspicious.

Yun Hao said: "If you come, you will be safe, and a few private soldiers can still turn against the sky?" โ€

The carriage left the official road and drove into a forest path, and in the depths of the forest there was a small manor, and the two white lanterns in front of the door were extremely eye-catching.

Zhang Baobao said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by this, this is deliberately miscellaneous." โ€

The cavalry captain said apologetically: "How come, I haven't heard of someone in his family passing away before, and I think it happened not long ago, and now it's too late to change to another place, so it's better to spend the night." โ€

It was not early, and Zhang Baobao didn't want to hurry, so he symbolically asked the opinion in the car, "Master Yun, why don't we spend the night here?" โ€

"If you can have a bed." Yun Hao's voice came.

When looking at the group of people who got off the car, the cavalry captain said: "I'll go back to patrol later, and I wish you all a good night's sleep." โ€

The cavalry team only walked back for a short time but stopped, and then disappeared into the forest next to the road, at this time a cavalryman said: "See, that little lady looks really smart, it's a pity." โ€

The cavalry captain smiled: "Why don't you go and accompany her?" โ€

The cavalry hurriedly said: "No, no, no, my family is still waiting for my only seedling to be passed on." โ€

The rest of the people immediately began to coax, and the cavalry captain said: "Don't joke, go back and tell the patriarch to see if you can gain something tonight." โ€

The eyes of the cavalryman, who had been joking before, immediately sharpened, "Yes." โ€

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

From the outside, the scale of the grange is not large, on the east and west two sets of courtyards, Zhang Baobao knocked on the door, and when the courtyard door opened, an old servant with a white cloth around his waist came out.

"Mage, you're finally here?" The old servant's tone was eager, with a hint of panic.

Zhang Baobao was stunned for a moment, no matter how they looked at it, they couldn't get along with the word mage, and then saw that the old servant's two eyes were sunken and he was blind, no wonder he would recognize the wrong person.

Zhang Baobao said: "We are not any mage, just passers-by who have come to stay overnight. โ€

The old servant was about to close the door casually, "Let's go, it's inconvenient to stay in the village for funeral." โ€

Zhang Baobao didn't want to touch his head, but when he saw that the other party refused to leave, he lost his temper, and pushed the door open and said: "You old guy is really eyeless, I dare to make a mistake when I am an official!" Go and call your master out. โ€

Hearing that the other party claimed to be an official, the old servant did not dare to contradict it, so he could only use his cane to explore the way to the courtyard, and it was not difficult to see the panic in his heart from the stumbling steps.
