I’m The King
Chapter 1167: : Carrying Forward the Past (57) Qiaojia Village
Qiaojia Village is about a hundred miles away from Daba Mountain. There are hundreds of families in the whole village, planting more than 1,000 acres of land, but this land was formerly owned by the big landlord Qiaotang. The tenants of the Qiao family. The Qiao family did not live in the village, but in the county seat of Qiao County, which is less than ten miles away from Qiaojia Village. In the first half of this year, due to the fiasco in Linyi after Qu, the Han army hurriedly chased after him. After being banished to Daba Mountain, the officials and gentry of Qiao County, frightened, also fled with Qu Wan. The Han Dynasty controlled thousands of miles of land in Fangyuan on the other side of Daba Mountain.
The arrival of the Han army once horrified the people here, but they could not flee with a small family like Dongjia Qiaotang did. They could only bite the bullet and stay at home, waiting for the unpredictable future.
But everything that happened afterwards surprised and delighted all the people in Qiao County, including Qiaojia Village. They have never seen such strict discipline in "Pig"Pig"Island"{www}.{zhuzhu}{}.{} In the army, Mr. Qiao Wan, a privateer in Qiao’s family village, always remembered the scene at that time.
A young officer knocked on the door of his closed home. When the door opened and saw the heavily armed army outside the door, Qiao Wan had already prepared for the worst.
"Are you Mr. Qiao Wan Qiao?" the young officer asked.
"Yes, I don't know why the chief is looking for Caomin?" Qiao Wan replied neither humble nor arrogant.
"Oh, that's the case. We are a unit of the Second Division of the First Army of the Southern Group Army of the Great Han Kingdom. I am the commander of the army, Ye Feng. We posted an Anmin notice in the village, but the people in the village are basically illiterate. Let's explain it ourselves. I'm afraid they don't believe it. After inquiring, I learned that my husband is a scholar, so I came to ask my husband to help us interpret it." The visitor smiled and said.
Qiao Wan didn't know how old the division commander was, but looking at the other's dignity and the soldiers behind him, it should be that the officer was not small, and the other's request was not excessive. So he nodded and agreed.
When he walked to the entrance of the village, he was surprised to find that outside the village, several miles of barracks had been set up. These troops did not enter the village, and not many people even left the barracks. This is very different from what he knew before. You know, when Da Chu sent troops to Linyi, their villages were also asked to donate rations!
"Sir. There is no autumn harvest in the village now, and there is not much food. Please don't embarrass the people in the village." Seeing this young officer named Ye Feng very kindly, Qiao said boldly in the evening.
The young officer was a little surprised at first, and then smiled: "Mr. Qiao rest assured that our Han army has its own logistics supply system, and never extortions from the people for military rations. You will see the army of the Han Kingdom in the future. Yes. The most disciplined army."
Having said that, Qiao Wan didn't take it too seriously at the time.
What happened next, one by one, finally made Joe Wan understand. Why did the officer named Ye Feng say that the Han army is the most disciplined army in the world?
This army seems to have a long-term plan to stay here, but their soldiers have never entered the village on a large scale, and the most frequent entry is those who drive carriages. Buying Shucai from local villagers is a purchase, not expropriation. The price is quite fair.
As time passed, the villagers gradually got used to the existence of this army. The big guys are ordinary people. They have to live and do what they should do. Although the land is not their own, the land has to be planted and the food is still needed. I have to take it, or what to eat next?
Of course, some villagers with more brainy minds saw these Han army benevolent and righteous, so they pushed a wheelbarrow and went to the village skewers to collect vegetables, bacon, and eggs, and then pushed them to the Han army barracks to sell them, so that everyone did not have What came to mind was that these first crab-eating guys had developed because of this. The Han army officer in charge of logistics actually signed a contract with them. No matter how much they received, the Han army was fully paid.
This is a large barracks of thousands of people, how much it consumes every day!
If this was just a small section, then the subsequent actions brought along with the arrival of the civil officials of the Han country shocked Qiao Wan. They began to divide the fields. The entire village was Qiaotang's land, but the Han country's land was owned by Qiaotang. After the officials arrived, they first measured the land in the village, and then began to convene a meeting of all the villagers. They even wanted to distribute the land to all the people free of charge.
The whole Qiao family village was boiling.
Divide the fields, choose the village head, and look at the meaning of Han officials. They will not send people to the village. Everything is under the autonomy of the village, and the tax standards they announced are so low that everyone can't believe it. , You know, they used to not only pay the rent to Qiaotang, but also pay taxes to the country. It is not bad that one-third of their annual income falls into their own hands. And now, in the very harvest, only 30% is paid, and the rest is my own.
Building canals in the village, repairing houses and roads for the people, and during the autumn harvest, each household was assigned a few soldiers to help, everything, everything, completely subverted the people in Qiao’s village’s understanding of the army , It also subverted their perception of the invaders. In just one month, this foreign army completely won the hearts of everyone in Qiao Family Village, and everyone was eager for them to stay here forever.
With the arrival of the Han army, the people in Qiao’s village had a better understanding of the outside world. According to the descriptions of these soldiers, the people in Qiao’s village finally had a vague understanding of the Great Han Kingdom. For them, Han country seems to be a beautiful paradise.
The people in Qiao's village felt that they had hope, and Qiao Wan felt that there was hope, but he also had some troubles that no one else had. The officials sent by the Han Dynasty to Qiao County demanded that every village have a school, and that every child in every household must be enrolled in school. However, the county is responsible for the cost of enrollment. As a long unemployed private man, Mr. Qiao In the end, not only does he have a fixed salary to get, but more importantly, he can regain his coaching skills, teach and educate people, how can he not be happy?
However, the trouble is that the young teacher, Ye Feng, didn't know when he started to run to his own house when he had nothing to do. His excuses were varied, and the one he used the most was to help him teach his children how to read. I have to admit that this young officer is indeed very educated, very different from the soldier with well-developed limbs and simple mind he imagined.
But his real purpose. It should be his daughter Rongniang.
This made Qiao Wan very annoyed, although now he knows that the division commander is already quite a large official in the army of the Great Han Kingdom. This group of thousands of people, no, should not know thousands of people, in the city, they There is also an army stationed there, at least more than 10,000 people. It is hard to believe that such a huge army is actually led by such a young man.
This officer has fallen in love with his daughter, and his daughter also has affection for this young officer. It is no wonder that Rongniang likes this young man. Not only does she lack the rudeness of a warrior, she is gentle and elegant, and she looks like a hero. Young and promising. But Qiao Wan had his own considerations. Such a young man became such a big official. I am afraid that Ye Feng's family background is very unusual, and he must be a wealthy Han Chinese. But his family is an out-and-out ordinary citizen. He is very worried that if his daughter really follows such a person, the future will be difficult. What's more, the young man had never formally asked for a kiss, if he just wanted to get his daughter to be a concubine. That Qiao Wan was absolutely unwilling. Although his daughter was the daughter of Xiaomen Xiaohu, she was absolutely not allowed to be deceived.
Qiao Wan sighed. His thoughts were interrupted by a roar. He raised his head and looked at Qiao Tang's disgusting face on the high platform in front of him.
"My Qiao is back again!" Qiao Tang glared at the people in Qiao's village with complicated expressions. "You mud legs, dare to divide the land of my home, but I thought that Qiao would come back one day. This year’s rent doubled, and hand it over to me honestly. I will not forgive you for your sins, otherwise, you will end up just like them."
Following Qiaotang's fingers, everyone saw the villagers who had made a fortune from doing business with the Han army. They were tied down to the ground and fell to the ground. Behind them were a row of swordsmen. Cries came from behind them. It was the family of these people.
"Chop it!" Qiao Tang waved his hand, the swordsmen in the hands of the swordsmen raised high, Qiao Wan closed his eyes, and as the exclaims around him, Qiao Wan knew that those people were already in their heads. Somewhere.
"Don't think that this day has changed, this day cannot be changed, how powerful my Da Chu is. The Han army did not know how to live or die. After a small victory, it would forget about it. Isn't it now beaten back by my Da Chu army? You guys? Life is good. The eldest man above was meant to cure your collaborating with the enemy. It was my kindhearted person, Qiao, who only caught the first evil and didn’t ask for coercion. It would be considered to have saved your life, and I will do my part for Joe in the future. Lord, I plant the ground and pay the rent on time every year. Lord, I will keep you safe!"
Qiao Wan lowered his head. The good life is short. From Ye Feng two months ago, he heard the news of the defeat of the Han army in Pengcheng. He was covered with a haze. Sure enough, more than a month ago, Ye Feng Angrily said to him that they are going to retreat, not only the army, but also the officials, all of which will be returned to the people of Chu.
Ye Feng asked Qiaowan's family to go with him, but Qiaowan refused. If he left with Ye Feng and was in a foreign land, he still had to do everything with him. It was always his hometown.
Everything is back to the past. This good day for more than half a year is nothing more than a dream. The school seems to be falling apart again. Where will the children come to school again?
"Qiao night!" A cold voice suddenly came from before him. Qiao Wan raised his head in amazement, and suddenly saw Qiao Tang's sullen eyes.
"Master Joe!" Joe lowered his head and exclaimed late.
"Do you know why I didn't catch you? Didn't you behead your head like those people?" Qiao Tang laughed happily~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The villain has always been disciplined and never did any illegal things. A few days ago, the Han people divided fields and land, and the villain did not have to spend one and a half acres. "Qiao Wan said in a low voice.
"Don't you don't want it, no one will plant it if you want it!" Qiao Tang smiled and said, "Do you know how to plant? Or your girl knows how to plant it. I won't catch you because you are a scholar, a scholar, always It makes sense, don’t you think? Compared to those who were beheaded, you have a greater sin. Don’t think I don’t know. During the period when the Han army was stationed here, a general of the Han army used it almost every day. Running to you, your friendship with him is very unusual, Joe is late, I tell you, there is someone from above, and he lives in the city now. Do you know who the leader is? It is Mr. Joe and my son. They were originally I wanted to catch you, but I blocked it."
Qiao Wan's heart jumped.
"But master, I'm not doing good deeds in vain." Qiao Tang grinned and said: "Your girl is getting better and better as it grows. Qiao is late, master, I am in love with her, and I plan to marry her as the tenth house wife. Please take a look at the days, ten days later, it will be an auspicious day. Lord, I will marry in a red sedan chair, hahaha!"
In the midst of Qiao Wan's thunderous blast, Qiao Tang walked away with a wild laugh. (To be continued...)
