On the ninth day of the third month, the first batch of 100 warriors of the Long Sword Army arrived in Liang County.

They were lucky, because there was already a ready-made part - the Liang County local heroically released.

Chang Cang stood on the ridge and saw his subordinates for the first time: a native of Liang County, Sanhu, was forced to take refuge in the local tyrant Li Li because of the disaster.

A part is a part, and a slave is a slave, and it is not the same in itself.

The trilogy is between a freeman and a slave, and can marry a lover as a wife, and can keep his property, and there is no difference from a freeman except for personal dependence.

Chang Cang silently looked at the three households, a total of sixteen men and women: four men, five women, and seven children.

Among the four Ding men, only one is in the prime of life, and the other three are not young, at least forty years old.

Why is this happening? It's nothing more than a war.

If there is another war in Luoyang, these four Ding Nan will have to go into battle if they can't do it, and it is difficult to say whether they can come back.

The woman has nothing to say, under the sun and rain, she is far worse than the little ladies Chang Cang saw in Chang'an - Chang Cang has just gotten married, his wife's family is doing business in Chang'an City, and the whole family was killed, and she was the only one left.

Children are generally not very old, and the oldest boy may not be ten years old, and they will all look at him timidly, subconsciously wanting to hide behind adults.

Chang Cang thought about it, the first time he met his own subordinates, he should always say something and give something to meet him.

After holding back helplessly for a long time, he only said: "My surname is Chang, and you will be my family in the future." It's the one in the east of the village, and it's easy to recognize. ”

After thinking about it, he learned Shao Xun's tone again, and said seriously: "If you are good at doing things, you have to be cheating and slippery." ”

"Yes......" the trilogues replied sparsely.

Chang Cang was slightly annoyed, and said: "I'm not a harsh master, what are you afraid of?" ”

After saying that, he walked to the horse, took out a hard piece of bread from the saddle bag, broke it into several pieces, and stuffed them into the hands of several children one by one, and said in a rough voice, "Take it, and reward you." ”

The child swallowed dryly, and someone took it with a "whoosh", and someone looked at the adult and took it after seeing that there was no objection.

Chang Cang laughed and took two steps closer, wanting to touch a child's head.

However, he was an old thief, an outlaw, and the weapons on his body clanged, which was quite scary. When the child saw it, he cried out with a "wow", wiped his tears and ran away.

The smile that Chang Cang squeezed out froze.

After a moment, he waved his hand in disappointment and said, "Let's disperse." ”

"Yes." The tribes suddenly dispersed.

The breeze blew, and Chang Cang squatted down a little lost.

In his imagination—or conjecture—the trilogy should be the kind of brave man who farms in his spare time, goes into battle in wartime, and shouts for battle.

Now it seems that there is a bit of a gap.

Mu Ne is stupid, not good at words, and timid and afraid. Such a trilogy, still expect them to accompany him on the expedition? Most of them can only dry dry wash the horses, make a fire and cook and other chores. or be gathered together from above, and repair the strongholds.

Anyway, it's good to be able to do a good job as an auxiliary, why do you want to do so much?

When I got home, my wife was tending to the vegetable bed.

Chang Cang looked at her clumsy appearance and sighed secretly.

The women of the city are good-looking, but they do their work—alas, it's hard to put into words.

But he doesn't regret it, just look good.

The sergeant has always been looked down upon, and it was impossible for him to marry a woman in Chang'an City.

The last time I heard a teacher from Pan Yuan mention that during the reign of Cao Wei (235 in the third year of Qinglong), he felt very sad.

The women of the soldiers were unwilling to marry the soldiers, which caused the soldiers to not be able to marry wives and affect their morale, so the imperial court investigated and arrested the women of the soldiers who had already married and forced them to remarry.

This kind of thing also happened during the time of the first emperor (Sima Yan) of this dynasty, and the scale far exceeded that of the Cao Wei period.

Both incidents were very morale-boosting "positive incidents" for the soldiers, but Chang Cang was furious when he heard it.

Why can't a sergeant who dares to fight not marry a wife?

Why should they only marry military women?

Lao Tzu is going to marry a woman in Chang'an City, even if she can't do farm work, I'm happy!

Seeing his wife's clumsy appearance, Chang Cang snatched the wooden spoon and said while scooping water and watering the vegetables: "Go cook." ”

The wife answered, her face flushing slightly.

Chang Su happily poured the vegetables and imagined his future life.

His wife had given birth to a child before, so he could have a child with himself, and most of them would not have a difficult birth, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

This small courtyard was retired by the steward of a farm in the county's Haoqiang Li Li's family, which is not bad.

Bah! What is the steward? The family is just a slave and a maid.

In terms of identity, it is not as good as a military household, but there are five or six people, and there is a maid of the Li Mansion as his wife. But their children are destined to remain slaves.

The government soldiers are different, they are exempt from conscription, they only serve in the military, and they are completely good families - no, the good families of the Han Dynasty are not as good as them.

I heard Chen Dujun say that General Shao has other benefits for the government soldiers, such as meritorious service or something - this is an official, you don't need to look at your family background, as long as you kill the enemy and make meritorious service, there are still such good things in the world?

Helplessly, the general can't call the shots now, let the imperial court reform, and can't do anything under the light of people's words.

Damn it! Chang Cang threw the wooden spoon in the bucket and thought silently, if one day, General Shao entered Luoyang to govern, would their good days come?

Or even, further?

Hundreds of officials and palaces are ready-made! I heard that the queen had given birth and raised, so General Shao didn't need to marry a wife, because even the queen was ready-made and could still give birth.

If there is such a good life, I am willing to sacrifice my life to fight.

A fire was lit in the stove, and his wife was already cooking corn porridge. After pouring the vegetables, Chang Cang took the horse to the small river outside the door and washed it himself.

The horse rubbed against him affectionately.

The murderous Chang Cang laughed. He had just returned from Guangchengze, where there were still 300 brothers and a group of men who were herding horses all day long.

It was also at that time that Chang Cang saw the big scene of thousands of horses galloping for the first time.

Guangchengze is a good place, good mountains, good water and good scenery. If you can use it for farming, you will definitely be able to harvest a lot of grain.

On the other side of the river, there was a sound of horses' hooves.

A dozen or so knights greeted Chang Cang from afar, and looked at the small courtyard of the Chang family to see if his bride appeared in the courtyard.

Chang Cang smiled and scolded a few words, and then puffed up his chest proudly.

Chang'an women are indeed beautiful, alas, just work hard. In addition to tempering martial arts skills, helping to do some farm work, isn't this how life is lived?

When A-Niang is brought from Yushanwu, and then she has a few children with the bride, life will be more secure.

Be sure to have more boys!

In the future, choose the most outstanding one, teach him all the skills of killing people, and when he is older, he can follow the general to fight. Xing may have established meritorious service and had his own family business.

The old Chang family is also going to spread out, maybe it will be a big family in a hundred years?

******

The wind rises at the end of Qingping.

Some things, at first, are unremarkable, and not everyone can see the mystery in them.

In the case of Li Li, a powerful man in Liang County, he only saw a large army leader who was greedy and cruel, leading a group of outlaws to grab his land, even though he had also taken it from others.

Then, the head of the army distributed the land he had grabbed to the soldiers and invited him to buy the hearts of the army!

On the surface, it seems to be right, it seems to be like this, and even the first hundred and ten people who came were assigned a part.

One soldier and three households, cultivating more than 100 acres of land for those outlaws.

In addition, if there are livestock, it seems that they will help graze - this year, or because of the lack of development, or because of the lack of water conservancy projects, or because of the lack of manpower, in short, there are many wastelands overgrown with grass, which is a good place for grazing, so strictly speaking, the income of the government soldiers is not more than the more than more than the hundred acres of land.

"Alas!" Li Li kicked a dead branch away, and his heart was depressed.

He is only 30 years old, and he began to take over the family business three years ago, focusing on a "brave and diligent progress".

Where others are embarrassed to take the land, he is embarrassed to take.

He dared to ask for the land that others did not dare to ask.

There were several officials in the county who called him brothers, and when he was conscripted and collected taxes, he kept those who quietly cultivated his land half to death, and then he came back to be a good man, laughing at the land and the tribes.

Actually, a lot of people do it. The world is like this, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it. Just allow your clan to encroach on the land, and prevent me from waiting for the place to grow and grow? The troubled times are coming, and there are many fields, many parts, more grain, and high courtyard walls, which is the most down-to-earth thing.

This material officer general, morning and evening lie in the coffin!

Well, he only dared to say this in his heart, because Li Li soon saw dozens of knights with heavy swords, crossbow machines, and iron armor.

It's just that these people are not good-looking, but genuine outlaws who dare to kill.

Don't ask Li Li why he knows, there are too many such people in this world.

As the knights rode by, their armor leaves rattling and their weapons glistening in the sunlight.

With such a long and heavy sword cut down, they would be dizzy to be chopped in iron armor, not to mention that their family couldn't muster ten pairs of iron armor.

These people! Li Li was depressed in his heart, and after returning home quickly, he thought about it again and again, feeling that this matter was not something he could change.

The best way is to contact more people to create a momentum, and then send someone to Luoyang to see if they can find a way to get Shao Xun away.

Or, it seems that it is okay to go to Yingchuan?

In short, Shao Xun can't be allowed to do such nonsense.
