Chapter 227: Cutting off the beard

"Rush, kill."

Seeing that the enemy was in disarray, the imperial soldiers launched an attack on the rebels.

When the rebels saw the soldiers and horses of the imperial court rushing down from a high place murderously, they were even more frightened, hugging their heads and running away, hoping that their father and mother would give him two more legs.

Not all of the rebels were cowards, and there were a few who dared to be tough, but their number was too small, and most of them fled back as soon as they saw the murderous court soldiers.

And these brave rebels, reluctantly, were held hostage by the cowards and had to flee.

In the process of having to flee, they wanted to scold their mother countless times in their hearts. They tried to stop, but the other rebels either pushed or trampled on their feet.

"I'll go! Do you think Lao Tzu's feet are stones? Dare to grind hard! ”

"Don't push me, you cowards, you know how to run away when you meet the enemy, what do you want? It's all fucking rice buckets! ”

"Ouch! Who stepped on my toes! ”

It hurts so much that my feet are jumping!

Damn!

My toes were frozen and got frostbite, and I had walked such a long way outside, it was itchy and painful, and I was stepped on like this, and it hurt so much that I really wanted to kill!

Even if his facial features were wrinkled together in pain, he had to jump forward with the flow of people. Because if you don't run, you will be pushed down, and they will be trampled to death, but you will be trampled to injury.

What's even worse is that the sound of muskets sounded behind him, and the sound of a rain of arrows whizzing, and if you don't run, you may lose your life.

"Brother save me!"

"Help, I was shot in the leg!"

"Ahhh Don't step on me! "The snow is stained with blood!

The soldiers and horses of the court were in hot pursuit, and the firearms battalion and the bow battalion took turns shooting, and the people who ran at the back of the rebel ranks fell in rows, so frightened that the rebels running in front of them wished they had grown Scuds.

It's just that sometimes mistakes are made in a panic, and some people speed up and accidentally fall into the snow, and before they can get up and continue to escape, the court soldiers and horses who catch up behind will directly solve him on the spot.

Ding Dazhuang saw dozens of people rushing into the dense forest with few people, and he led his team to immediately chase after him.

Now that even Feng Tu and Sha Yuliang have become lieutenant generals, he is unwilling to be a pioneer officer two ranks lower than them.

Taking advantage of this battle, he vowed to make more meritorious contributions than the two of them, and he must work hard to catch up with them.

The rebels who had been hungry for a long time, even if they grabbed food and had two full meals, they were still physically inferior to the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

Ding Dazhuang was eyeing these dozens of people, the most important thing was that these dozens of people were protecting one of them on the run, and he thought that this person must be a thief.

Sure enough, after shooting some of them to death and catching the last few people, after interrogation, Ding Dazhuang knew that the person who was being protected was actually a general in the rebel army, and he was a thief leader with a relatively high position.

Ding Dazhuang kicked him: "Heh, you are really mad, you went to loot the people's fat and ointment, and robbed the people of the last bit of life-saving food, and even the thief capital was dispatched, do you still want to be embarrassed?" ”

The head of the thief was captured alive and not only was insulted by these officers and soldiers, but he turned his head to the other side, not looking, listening or talking, in order to protest the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Of course, his resistance didn't matter to Ding Dazhuang.

What to do with these captives will have to be taken back and let the masters decide.

Sha Yuliang saw Ding Dazhuang walking towards this side with a few captives from a distance, and when he got closer, he asked, "Officer Ding Xianxian, are these people captured by you?" Do you know what identity it is? ”

Because he saw that one of them was dressed differently from the clothes worn by the other traitors, he thought he was a small leader.

Ding Dazhuang pushed the thief head to the front, pointed at him and said, "The little leader among the traitors, what kind of army is it!" ”

Sha Yuliang looked at the captives in different costumes in surprise, "Yo! This is not a small boss, he is a core figure in the rebels! Officer Ding, how did you catch him? ”

Ding Dazhuang squinted in his heart, listened to the question, and said with a smile: "I just saw that they chose another way to escape, thinking that I couldn't let them escape, so I called my brothers to chase after him, but it was unexpected, he turned out to be a rebel soldier." It was a windfall to be able to catch him this time! ”

Sha Yuliang sighed in his heart, this luck is really enviable, he has not captured an enemy general alive for many years in the army, but this Ding Dazhuang inadvertently completed the task he did not complete, do you say it can be enviable?

Sha Yuliang asked the captives to be escorted down, and then said to Ding Dazhuang: "I will repay you for this merit, and take the brothers to continue to clean up the battlefield to see if there are any traitors left behind." ”

Ding Dazhuang said with a smile: "Then it's hard General Sha, if the master is promoted to an official position, please drink and visit the flower building at that time." ”

Sha Yuliang's face, which was still smiling, instantly darkened, "Ding Xianxian, pay attention to your usual behavior, you must know that the master hates men the most and asks for flowers and willows when he has nothing to do, be careful that she knows that she will erase your credit this time!" ”

"Ahh

Ding Dazhuang was taken aback, "General Sha, who did you hear say that the master hates men looking for flowers and asking willows the most?" How come I haven't heard anyone talk about it? ”

He even suspected that this was Sha Yuliang's jealousy of his meritorious service and made up a lie just to trick him.

Sha Yuliang glanced at him: "Who else should listen to this, the master is a woman, and what women hate the most is that men are half-hearted and amorous!" ”

Ding Dazhuang was really startled, he felt that what Sha Yuliang said made sense, and tried to recall his usual performance, as if there was nothing that made his master angry.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm just joking with you, don't take it seriously, you just didn't say it today." ”

At the same time, I also secretly kept in mind that I couldn't make such a fool next time.

Compared with serving under the master, women are old!

The battlefield was cleaned, and the soldiers did not even let go of the enemy's corpses, and searched their pockets, of course, whoever found this kind of thing counted, so everyone was very enthusiastic about cleaning the battlefield.

For the grain looted by the rebels this time, a rough calculation is about a few hundred loads, although these grains are not much, but they can also alleviate the famine of the people in the county.

As Sha Yuliang came back with people and food, several other interception teams also returned to the city one after another.

Don't look at the lack of food in the famine year, but the rebels are also capable, and they can scavenge so much food in just a few days, which is considered a cattle man!

If you can follow the right path, you will definitely be a capable official.

Two days later, notices were posted at the entrance of the county ya, the bazaar, and the city gate, and several places, asking the people of the whole city to receive relief grain at the gate of the county government from tomorrow.

As for how long the people can eat these grains, it depends on their personal skills, some of them have a good way to run their families, each adult has five catties of grain, and it is possible for her to eat for a month, if she can't run a woman, this bit of food is really not made by her, maybe it can be made in a few days.

"Tell me, what's on the notice?"

The notice was crowded with scrawny people, most of whom were illiterate, and only a few were literate.

Those who are illiterate urge those who are literate not to hang their book bags, and quickly read the meaning of the notice to them.

"Don't worry, let me see it first!"

"Can't you read it out while you read it, read it first, isn't it a delay?" Someone urged.

The literate person rolled his eyes in his heart, and the gentleman in the school also had to take notes before teaching, not to mention that he was a layman, although he was literate, he also needed a rigorous attitude in doing things.

"Alright, alright, everyone stop arguing, listen to me!"

There was silence all around now, and everyone pricked up their ears to hear what the notice said.

The government posted the notice, don't ask why the official who posted the notice didn't read it?

Unfortunately, the officials who came to post the notice this time were illiterate.

"There are two points in the meaning of the notice, one is that the rebel prisoners will be executed at the entrance of the vegetable market at noon tomorrow, and the other is that after the execution, everyone can go to the yamen to line up to receive food, adults can receive five catties each, and children can receive three catties!"

At first, everyone was frightened when they heard the beheading of the captives in the vegetable market, but when they heard the latter sentence, everyone was excited!

There is food!

"How could the government be so generous this time and directly distribute food to everyone, do you know who led the troops to quell the rebellion in Yuzhou this time?"

"I don't know." Someone shook their heads.

"If I knew who led the troops, I would be at home in the future, but I would burn two pillars of incense for him on the fifteenth day of the new year, and I hope he will be invincible on the battlefield in the future!"

"What you said is nice, do you have any money to buy incense?"

This is a sharp and realistic question, and as soon as these words came out, the person who was excited just now slowly calmed down.

Someone who couldn't wait spoke: "Alas, don't quarrel, there have been more people in the past two days, and there must be more people receiving food, so I'd better go home and prepare first, especially the bag containing grain." ”

"You're right, I'll let my family head come to line up early tomorrow, and I can't be late if I have food."

After getting the exact news, the crowd dispersed a lot in an instant.

It's too cold outside, so it's better to go home and sleep on the kang to warm up than to get cold here.

The next day, before noon, many people had already come out of the streets, some of them carrying baskets, some carrying baskets, and some carrying grain bags, and their destination was the same, that is, to go to the yamen to receive relief grain.

"Hairy Dan, are you ready?"

"Grandma Chun, I'm ready."

As soon as the words fell, Mao Dan ran out of the house with a sack in his hand.

"Come to me." Aunt Chun put the sack in his hand into her back basket.

"Grandma Chun, I can take a bag." Helplessness flashed in Mao Dan's eyes, and at the same time, he was also grateful in his heart, if it weren't for the help of Grandma Chun and the stone in this catastrophe, maybe his body would have stiffened a long time ago.

Shi walked over and took his hand, and comforted: "Your bag doesn't weigh much, and it won't tire her in my milk's back basket, so don't be polite here, it's a big deal for us to hurry up and line up to get food." ”

Aunt Chun smiled: "What the stone said is right, let's hurry up and get food." ”

Mao Dan felt that their words were reasonable, and he didn't insist anymore, and the three of them couldn't help but speed up their pace.

Xia Jing was dressed plainly today, and took Li Chengmu and his personal guards out of the back door of the county government in a low-key manner.

When I turned out of the alley at the back door, I saw that there was already a long queue at the yamen.

Some of the people in the team caught her attention, and she pointed to a few people who were obviously dressed from good backgrounds, and asked, "Who are those people?" ”

Seeing that they don't dress like poor people, they look more like families with good families, but people with good families will come to line up to receive food?

This really doesn't make sense!

Ye Fei glanced over there, and said with some uncertainty: "It should be a rich family in the county, maybe there is no food at home." ”

Xia Jing stood on a street corner and said to Ye Fei: "You go and ask the officials to ask, where are they?" ”

Ye Fei took the order and left.

Li Chengmu curled the corners of his lips slightly, "The queen mother doesn't believe that these few people have run out of food at home?" ”

Xia Jing nodded without hesitation: "Yes, it stands to reason that rich families like them are a bit of brains, and in the event of a disaster, the family has some food in stock, so they will not grab food from the people." ”

Li Chengmu listened to her words, and suddenly looked at those people with a little wrong eyes, "Queen Mother, then I'll let someone drive them back?" ”

Xia Jing waved her hand: "No, let them arrange for the time being." ”

Ye Fei came back quickly, "Master, the official told me that these people are several big families in the county, and their families are basically in business, and they used to have a lot of money, and their family wealth has been scattered in the past three years. ”

Otherwise, several families would not have come here to queue up to receive relief food for the sake of face.

These are the exact words of the officials.

Of course, there are only a few officials in the county government now, and it is still the original team that Xia Jing and they re-recruited after they entered the city.

It's just that only a few of them are left in the original team, and the rest are either dead or have joined the rebel team.

Li Chengmu listened to Ye Fei's words, and looked at those people with a little pity, but in his heart he still didn't believe that the rich would be really poor enough to receive relief food.

Xia Jing didn't say anything, but led them around the county seat.

It was still early to distribute relief food, and the distribution of food began at noon after the thieves were cut off, and the whole city celebrated this great victory.

Aunt Chun, Shi Shi and Mao Dan noticed Xia Jing and her party, because there were too many people in line, otherwise they really wanted to come to Xia Jing to thank them again.

"Mao Dan, it was she who agreed with me to pack an extra bowl of porridge to save you, and she also ordered the officers and soldiers to help bury your milk's body." The stone looked into the distance, his expression excited, and he saw his benefactor again.

Mao Dan nodded and said firmly: "Well, I will repay her." ”

Aunt Chun rubbed Maodan's hair with satisfaction, and teased: "Since you want to repay her, then you have to remember her face, otherwise when you grow up and want to repay, you won't be able to find anyone." ”

"Grandma Chun, don't worry, I'm not ungrateful!"

"Yo, you said the kid would be able to drag the text!"

Aunt Chun is really rare This kid, not only has a smart head, but also is very well-behaved and sensible, which is really loving and pitiful.

And Xia Jing, who was already far away from the county government, didn't know the conversation between Aunt Chun's ancestors and grandchildren, she was observing the surroundings while strolling around at this time.

"Mother, where are we going?"

Ye Fei also reminded: "Master, further on is the residential area, there are no shops in it, there is nothing to visit." ”

Xia Jing nodded: "I know, I just want to see what kind of standard the residential area of these rich businessmen and officials is?" ”

The corners of Ye Fei's mouth twitched, he looked at Xia Jing's expression, how could he feel a bit like the rhythm of finding fault!

Could it be that the master is in conflict with one of the people in the area?

Walking to a house, Xia Jing pointed to the plaque: "Is this the Wu family?" ”

Ye Fei looked through the household registration book, and it was indeed the Wu family's house.

The mansion occupies a wide area, and there must be many people who will oppose it if they set aside some houses to settle the soldiers.

They opposed luxury because they did not own it themselves, and others opposed it because they feared that the court would take advantage of them.
