After a while, it was really rewarding.

The intelligence officer hurried to tell him:

"Sir, when someone arrived at the border between Huguang and Nanzhili, he saw that there were rogues stationed there under the banner of "Chuang" and "Zhang", and it is said that they also destroyed many villages and forced the people inside to act with them, and at the same time, many of the homeless people were also taken captive, and the person was almost taken captive, and he escaped by hiding in the grass. ”

Hearing this, Yan Ling's expression became slightly serious.

Chuang, Zhang ...... Is it Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong?

Yan Ling quickly thought of these two people.

After all, to be able to become the leader of the rogues in the original time and space, that is also a capable person, it is not surprising that he will stand out again in this time and space.

It's just that at this time, the most famous among the rogues is Wang Er, who ignited the flame of the uprising in the original time and space, but died very early, and he still leads his subordinates in this time and space, and is the number one target of the Ming army.

More than half a year ago, due to the sudden outbreak of natural disasters, the displaced people in Shaanxi and Jin provinces swarmed, and the Ming army was tired of suppression, causing Wang Er to seize the opportunity to break through with the remnants of the 36th battalion, and the overall situation that Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng had been operating for a long time was destroyed.

And it was at that time that these two people escaped.

The rogues who broke out of the siege were like dragons entering the sea, and they each had their own thoughts, and now there was no encirclement and suppression of the Ming army in front of them, so they naturally fell apart, and the alliance of the 36th battalion was no more.

Wang Er went to Henan with his troops, Wang Jiayin went to Huguang with his men, and some of the remaining surviving Liukou leaders also went their separate ways.

And Zhang Xianzhong and Gao Yingxiang also went to Huguang.

Now, because of the large number of attrition of their subordinates, they have finally begun to use a large number of people as cannon fodder, just like the original time and space, and completely transformed from a rebel army to a rogue.

In exchange, the number has skyrocketed, with the current situation of displaced people, and then a large number of cities and territories, coercing the people, Yan Ling estimates that Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong's troops will soon be greatly expanded.

So, will Gao Yingxiang plot against Nanjing like the original time and space?

Yan Ling couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Most likely, it will. Gao Yingxiang's ambition is not small, especially now that Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng are all in Shanxi and Shaanxi, Huguang and Nanzhili have no one who can suppress him.

Originally, in history, Gao Yingxiang even hit Jiangpu at the peak, and there was only one Yangtze River left from Nanjing City, that is, he met Lu Xiangsheng, after the First World War, "the thieves and camps were all defeated, chasing fifty miles to the north, and the dragon bridge to Guanshan, the corpses were filled in the ditch, and the water was not flowing", which made Nanjing turn from danger to safety.

But now that Lu Xiangsheng is in Xuanda, he is anxious about more and more rogues in the territory, how can he rush over.

Now that someone has seen their troops on the border between Huguang and Nanzhi, it is estimated that it will not be too far away at that time.

Relying on the defenders of Nanjing...... Yan Ling shook his head slightly, feeling a little hanging.

If this is the case, they will also directly face the threat of rogues, you must know that the Ming Dynasty's Nanzhili, in fact, is the later Anhui and Jiangsu, and Zhejiang is too close.

Originally, Zhejiang was safe and sound in history, but it doesn't mean that they won't come in this history.

You have to be prepared.

He ordered Yinlong to pass the news to Yan Yinghui, the Duke of Yue in Nanjing, and at the same time gave an order to prepare for war.

"Sir, a new convoy of convoys has arrived, with a total of fifteen convoys and five frigates." As soon as he had finished dealing with all this, a member of his clan came to tell him.

Yan Ling nodded lightly:

"Get them on board."

In a short time, a trumpet sounded.

The ship left port.

……

After a long journey, Wang Jiu finally arrived at the final destination of this trip, the Southern Continent.

When they stepped off the transport ship, they saw countless ships and various buildings lined up one after another.

This is a port in the north of the mainland, which has been very prosperous after decades of operation, where you can see all kinds of people coming and going, and all kinds of languages resounding in the streets and alleys.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Wang Jiu instantly realized that this was definitely not the Great Ming anymore.

He suddenly understood why the clerk had asked him that sentence in the first place.

But what does it matter if you can live here in peace? I can't live anymore, who cares if it's a foreign country? Otherwise, they would not have abandoned their homeland and wandered.

Looking back, the eyes of many homeless people were the same as his, but like Wang Jiu, after experiencing the days of not having enough to eat, they didn't care about anything else.

The people of different ships went in different directions, and the hundreds of them followed the guide for two days before finally arriving at the place.

A middle-aged man with a dignified appearance was waiting for them with three other people.

After the handover, he came to the crowd.

"Everyone, remember, from now on, you will no longer be the subjects of the Ming Dynasty, but citizens under the Governor's Office of Luzon. The proof of identity in your hands is the proof! ”

As soon as this remark came out, it did not cause much commotion. Although almost no one had heard of the name of the Governor's Palace of Luzon, as said before, they didn't care about anything else if they could survive.

"From now on, you will be a member of a village, and he will be the head of your village." The majestic middle-aged man pointed to the last of the two behind him and said.

"Your village belongs to Wanyuan Town and Huaxing County."

"And I'm the mayor of Wanyuan Town, and this is the chief of the town's police department...... The police, almost fast. ”

The other smiled and bowed.

"If there is any disagreement, go to the county to file a lawsuit, be careful not to find the county magistrate, but to find the judge of the judicial office; If the police and officials have any problems, they will go to the monitoring office to report it. ”

Here, the county magistrate no longer has judicial power, and the law enforcement officers are also independent, the county magistrate only has administrative power, and the town mayor does not have the power to control the village rules and customs of the clan as in the mainland.

This also broke the convention that the imperial power did not go to the countryside.

After the introduction, they were led by the village chief to their village, and then their own professionals divided the land for them.

"Wang Jiu, bring a minor child...... Adult men are divided into 40 acres of land, 30% of the upper fields, 40% of the middle fields, 30% of the lower fields, and 20 acres of children are divided into 20 acres...... Oh, this is the title deed, the house is temporarily borrowed from you, and then you can pay it back when you have money, and the government will provide seeds and food before the harvest. ”

The man handed over a stack of title deeds, and someone came behind him carrying a large bag of rice and seeds.

When Wang Jiu heard this, he was a little incredulous, his hand trembled and took the title deed, although he couldn't understand it, but he still kept flipping it:

"So much? Sixty acres ......"

"Of course." The man laughed, he had seen too many scenes like this.

After receiving the affirmation of the staff, Wang Jiu's heart suddenly rose with a burst of ecstasy.

Even when he didn't become a homeless person, he only had twenty-four acres of land on hand to feed a family of five, and life was tight.

And now I have a full sixty acres of land in one go!
