Chapter 637: The Yellow Turban Village under construction
The construction of Hengshui Town is of course necessary for Gaojia Village.
Because the Yellow Turban Village in Yingzui Mountain is very likely to be turned into a militarized city in the future, it is naturally inconvenient for the common people to revolve around the warships every day if a large number of warships are to be hidden there.
Therefore, Li Daoxuan also formulated a plan to develop Hengshui Town.
Hengshui Town and Yellow Turban Village will be built simultaneously, and these two places will be built. Leave the trustworthy people in the Yellow Turban Village and transform them into soldiers of the Gaojia Villagers in the future, or logistics soldiers of the fleet.
And more ordinary people can be arranged in Hengshui Town in the future.
It is obviously more reasonable to separate the generals from the people.
Of course, it is impossible to tell these things to the master of the county order, so let him think that this place is built casually.
When the sled became unusable, the group began to travel by land.
More than ten miles away, throwing the ham, it took more than an hour to walk.
In front of it is the famous Eagle Beak Mountain, Liu Bawan is still a little afraid of this place, people who live in this vicinity, who is not afraid of Xiaolangdi water thieves?
However, before he went up the mountain, he saw many people on the mountain road digging and lifting rocks to build roads for going up and down the hillside. The road was deliberately built as a winding road, apparently to ease the slope and make it easier for the car to descend the mountain immediately.
The hillside is full of road builders, looking like they are in full swing.
This is not something that water thieves are interested in doing, only hard-working ordinary people will work like this.
Liu Bawan was not scared in an instant, but was a little excited: "So many migrant workers? Bai Shanren, where did you get so many migrant workers to build roads? ”
The white kite sighed: "They are all the affected people in the Yellow Flood Area. ”
Liu Bawan woke up suddenly and understood. Mr. Bai built more than 500 mud sleds, of course, not only to save the people in the county, but also to save the people in the fields and villages outside the city.
And apparently it is more reasonable to save the countryside first.
In the face of natural disasters, the people in the county town hide in the city, and the chance of survival is greater, but the people in the countryside are very vulnerable, once they are trapped on the roof, hillside or something by the flood, if they are not rescued, they will starve to death in three to five days.
Therefore, Bai Shanren obviously used these sleds to rescue a large number of rural people first, and then came to the county seat.
Liu Bawan was in awe again.
The group walked through the potholed mountain road, and soon came to a dilapidated stockade halfway up the mountain.
White Kite: "Master, let's guess, what kind of village is this?" ”
Liu Bawan was shocked: "Yellow Turban Village? ”
"Exactly!" The white kite smiled: "This is the Yellow Turban Village where the water thieves have been entrenched for many years, a few days ago, I led my family and the victims to attack the mountain, and all the water thieves in this village were wiped out, and now this village has belonged to the victims." ”
As the two of them were talking about this, they saw a group of ordinary people walking out of the gate of the village, with a big hammer with a shovel on their shoulders, obviously preparing to participate in the road repair work.
Seeing the white kite, the group of people hurriedly saluted: "Hello Mr. Bai." ”
The white kite instantly put on a handsome pose, smiled and waved his hand: "Hello everyone." ”
Liu Bawan thought to himself: This super powerful old man, when facing ordinary people, is actually kind and pleasant, and he will return the gift, I really didn't expect it.
At this moment, the white kite laughed hesitantly: "No matter who greets Zaixia, Zai Xia will return the salute well, and the gentleman's six arts are very important in the middle of the courtesy." ”
Liu Bawan: "......"
Continuing to walk into the Yellow Turban Village, Liu Bawan found that this village was being repaired everywhere, repairing the wall, repairing the watchtower, repairing the arrow tower, and repairing the house...... The men are working hard, while a large number of women are cooking, boiling water, doing laundry, and doing the logistics for the men.
Inside and out, walking down this circle, there are no less than 20,000 people in sight, and the scale is so large that it is astonishing.
Walking to the innermost, there is a huge open space behind the stockade.
A large group of young and strong men among the common people were lining up here, forming a huge formation, each with a wooden stick in his hand, obviously training. A man dressed in the costume of the Bai family commanded at the front: "Turn left!" Turn right! Take a step forward! ”
Liu Bawan was taken aback: "Oh, Bai Shanren, what are you doing?" Do you want to rebel in training? ”
"Training troops to rebel?" The white kite shook his head: "I am a good common man, how can I have the reason to train troops to rebel privately, this is to train the militia and prepare to clean up dozens of other small water thieves at the bottom of Xiaolangdi." ”
Bai Kite continued: "The Xiaolangdi water thieves have existed for more than a thousand years, and the government has repeatedly suppressed them without extermination, in the final analysis, the government has invested too little manpower, and after thinking about it, if you want to level the water thieves, the best way is to launch a large number of militias. The militia is outnumbered and powerful, and it sweeps the entire small wave like a carpet, leaving no place for all the water thieves. ”
Liu Bawan thought about it carefully, and it seemed reasonable.
The white kite continued to smile: "And after sweeping away the water thieves, we will also send the common people to occupy the water thieves' villages, and turn these villages into villages where the common people live, so that there will be no more water thieves." ”
Liu Bawan thought about it carefully: "Wonderful! Bai Shanren is right, the places where thieves will gather are often places where ordinary people do not live, and once there are more ordinary people living here, thieves will have no place to stand. Only this plan can permanently eliminate the scourge of water thieves at the bottom of the small waves. ”
He hurriedly made a big salute to the white kite: "Bai Shanren is a great talent." ”
The white kite was secretly laughing in his heart: But these people's villages listen to me, if I rebel, all the people here will become rebels. I won't talk to you about that.
As the two of them were talking this, they suddenly heard the sentry shout: "There are water thieves, there are water thieves coming over on the river." ”
This shout immediately startled Liu Bawan, and the twenty servants and helpers who came with him were also trembling with fear.
But the people in the water village were not afraid at all, but many workers stopped their work and looked at the water.
Sure enough, on the water under the Eagle's Beak Mountain, a small sampan appeared, about twenty or so, and there were five or six water thieves on each boat, adding up to about a hundred people, and the water thieves also held a flag on it, with the word "Li" written on it.
Liu Bawan: "Hey? Where did this water thief come from? ”
The white kite had already investigated the thieves at the bottom of the small waves, and with confidence, he smiled: "It seems that it should be the boss of Shizhai from the southern waters, named Li Dayu." This guy usually walks around our water village, but today he dared to come to the neighborhood to shake up, it seems that he hasn't cleaned him up, and his skin is starting to itch. ”
