Chapter 757: Which Comes First, Tomorrow or Accident (Part I)
What to expect? Of course, I was looking forward to His Royal Highness coming to Xizhou again, and His Royal Highness agreed with them, saying that he would come to their house next time, and he would spend the New Year with them and have a meal.
This meal, the entire Xizhou people are looking forward to it, but they don't know when His Highness will come.
I heard that His Royal Highness went to Tianzhu last year, and the straight-line distance from our Xizhou is not very far, in the opinion of Iron Hammer, His Royal Highness should recruit them, the herdsmen of Xizhou, every household, and a man from each household, just push it all the way over.
What are the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, they are all a bunch of waste! Even if they have a certain relationship with them, and even many of the Western Turks who once belonged to them, they are just a bunch of waste.
Iron Hammer has heard that last year alone, many people came from the Western Regions, Tubo and other places, and I am afraid that tens of thousands of people fled to live in this Western Continent.
That is, His Royal Highness, the immortal world, will treat everyone so kindly, in the eyes of Iron Hammer, these people fled in, isn't it to rob them of their living space? They should all be hacked to death, or caught and mined.
It's just that His Royal Highness was merciful and gave them the same identity as the people of our Tang Dynasty, and also gave them the land, and distributed the cattle and sheep in their hands to ensure their lives.
"Hammer! Hurry up, it's time to kill the sheep and sacrifice! The people of the village shouted loudly.
"It's coming, it's coming." Iron Hammer immediately collected his thoughts, and walked in, he was the head of the village, and he had to preside over this sacrifice.
After building a house, the herdsman killed a sheep for sacrifice.
The method of sacrifice is also very simple, a little different from their previous method, but it has also been passed down partly, first the people of the village dance together with a special ritual dance, and then the hammer loudly announces it.
"Today we are here to sacrifice, this first bite of meat, for our highness." With the hammer's words, he picked up the ornate dagger in the tray and shaved off the most tender piece of meat from the sheep and placed it in the tray next to him.
Then everyone saluted and bowed in the direction of Chang'an City.
"This second bite of meat is to be sacrificed to the Immortal Heavenly ......," Hammer continued the ritual.
When this sacrifice was over, everyone cheered, their family's life is getting better and better, and the cattle and sheep in their hands are also increasing, of course, it can't be increased forever, in that case, the grassland can't bear it, but with the alfalfa grass they planted, it is obvious that the number of cattle and sheep that each family can raise is much more than it can accommodate before.
What's more, even if they don't raise cattle and sheep, they can't go hungry now, because the monthly money they earn every month is enough for them to buy food.
"Ding Damu!" When all the rituals were over, the hammer called the herdsmen over and took their own surnames, or went to consult the captains who had read the books, the village chiefs. and their names are according to their former names.
"Village Chief." The master came over, with a smile on his face, and his face was wrinkled with laughter.
"You cut down more than 40 trees to build a house this time, do you know how to do it?" Hammer asked, looking at him.
"I know, I'll take our cubs up the mountain to plant trees starting tomorrow, and then make sure that eighty trees survive!" Ding Damu patted his chest and said.
"Just know! The requirement in the township is 10 more, and you can do the excess yourself. Hammer began.
"That's not good, Your Highness said, this tree and grass are all related to our future generations, I Ding Damu cut down more than 40 trees, I will definitely plant 80 trees." Ding Damu said very simply.
"Okay, you can count it in your own heart, but I tell you, you can't plant indiscriminately, make a good memory yourself, and according to what Mr. taught, you have to reserve a certain amount of space." Hammer admonished again.
"Come on, village chief, you can rest assured."
"Also, you are not allowed to light a fire in the woods!"
"Don't worry!"
Iron Hammer explained a few words, and then left, he has other things to do today, he can't stay here all the time, the village needs to organize militia training, he is a member of the first batch of training, and when he finishes training, he will also organize these villagers to train.
At that time, the township chief and they all said that we have to protect ourselves in the future, in case the bandit accidentally enters the village, he must be called to have no return.
Although they were herders who could ride horses and shoot arrows, they could not fight.
Although Iron Hammer felt that this was not the case, he felt that their herdsmen were quite brave, especially for His Highness to fight, but since this was also said by His Highness, then he Iron Hammer must abide by it.
In this Western Continent, His Highness's words, His Highness's policy, that is absolutely implemented without discount.
His Royal Highness in many towns and villages in Xizhou has begun to build primary schools and middle schools for them, and I heard that in the future, this primary school and middle school will start military training.
All good things! Iron Hammer naturally thinks so, he thinks that the descendants of this grassland naturally want people like His Highness to learn, follow in His Highness's footsteps, and don't ask them to help His Highness much in the future, at least when His Highness needs the steel knives and bows and arrows in their hands, they must be able to wield.
……
Tubo, Wosang tribe, here is one of the major tribes of Tubo, the main distribution area is not far from Lhasa, located in the southeast of Lhasa.
After finishing her daily work, Sonya, who was dressed in rough clothes, had just sorted out her things and was about to go to lecture in the evening, when a hurried figure rushed over.
"Sanya is not good, Dorjee has been arrested by the leader of the Lezaji of the Wosang Ministry." The man burst in and spoke loudly.
"What?!" Sonya was stunned, and almost jumped up from his position, "You said Dorjee was arrested?" What's with? ”
"When the son of the leader of Lezaji went out to play, he threw a jade pendant, and was picked up by a little child, who did not know what it was, so he kept playing, and when the chief's son came to him, the jade pendant was covered with mud, and the son of the leader was going to kill the child. Dorjee happened to be nearby, he rescued the child, and then he and the family were captured by the leader of Lezaji. The messenger told the story and the consequences.
"How's it going? Is Dorjee okay? ”
"After being beaten, the soldiers who originally captured Dorjee were also our people, but Dorjee told him to obey the orders of the leader so as not to expose us, and he said that the time had not yet come. But...... Dozens of herdsmen went to intercede, and the leader of Le Zaji said that Dorjee tried to incite the serfs to rebel and wanted to hang Dorjee five days later. The messenger said quickly, "There are dozens of people who have been arrested. ”
Sonya took a deep breath, and he said in a deep voice, "Can we go see Dorjee at night?" ”
"Yes! The guards are our people, no problem. The messenger said quickly.
"Arrange for me to meet Dorjee in the evening." Sonya spoke.
"Yes."
