From the end of the world to ancient times with the writer system

Xilin County is close to the border, not only the county seat, but even the villages have war avoidance facilities.Compared with ordinary county towns, the city walls of Xilin County are taller and thicker. At a glance, it looks very simple and solemn.

Although there has been no war for many years, the inheritance left by the ancestors has not been abandoned.But that's all. Xilin County has not introduced the old and brought forth the new for a long time, and the large defensive facilities such as the city wall are just repaired every year. Many other facilities are already outdated and barely usable. As for how long they will last, only God knows.

After Ji Xuanhe became the county magistrate, due to the insufficient funds of the Xilin County government, the equipment that can be refurbished every year is limited. Up to now, a small part of it is still the same.

Now that the situation is unclear, Ji Xuanhe assigned Xishan Zhuangzi to the county government's emergency money and used it first to improve wartime equipment.On this point, Xia Xiancheng and Master Fang both agreed.Having been an official for a long time, as long as he is not a faint-hearted person, his sensitivity to the situation is much higher than that of ordinary people, and Xia Xiancheng and the others are like this.

Among oil crops, cottonseed is the cheapest, followed by rapeseed and soybeans.Cottonseed oil is edible, but with Jinchao's level of craftsmanship, the toxic substances in it cannot be removed, so it can only be used as lamp oil and torches.Also because of this, its price is the least valuable of all vegetable oils.

Ji Xuanhe had people prepare a lot of these three kinds of oil-extracting crops. Even if they didn't need them, they could be sold for money and wouldn't be wasted.The county government funds are much more generous than before, but they can't stand the toss, and they can save a little bit.

In order not to cause panic, Ji Xuanhe didn't make any big moves, and the people still worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.There are only a few people in the county government, and there are not many people in total, so Ji Xuanhe focused on the labor of Xishan Zhuangzi.

Zhou Quan dispatched a police officer to teach them archery and stick dancing. Once they learned it, they could go hunting in the mountains and improve their lives from time to time.Hearing that the guards were going to teach them how to hunt, each of the farmers could not use up their energy.

Ji Xuanhe didn't expect their enthusiasm to be so good. It seems that the temptation of meat is really great.That's right, these farmers are strong laborers, and their families are poor. They can only eat [-]% full at Xishan Zhuangzi. Occasionally eating meat is extremely rare. It's no wonder they don't flock to them if they can learn the skills of hunting.

Since the people in Zhuangzi are so active, even if the villagers are not so urgent, there should be a considerable number of young and middle-aged people who are willing to learn the craft of hunting.While learning archery, you also need to exercise your body. The method is very simple. You can jog along your respective villages every day. The number of laps is up to you, and you can do what you can.

Ji Xuanhe felt that this plan was feasible, and after discussing it with Xia Xiancheng and the others, they both thought it was possible to give it a try.

Zhou Tutou chose a village on the back of the mountain as a trial, and the effect was not bad. About half of the young and middle-aged people were willing to try it.There are not so many bows and arrows, so they make them by themselves, basically without much technical content, and the workmanship is extremely rough, which looks very shabby.There is no force, and if you pull it hard a few times, the bow will probably be scrapped.The shooting range is very short, and apart from being simple and easy to make, the whole bow seems to have almost no advantages.

The villagers lack weapons, and few of them can afford bows and arrows. Wooden sticks are more practical.There are mountains of lumber all over the place, you just have to cut them down with some effort and have them smoothed by a carpenter or yourself.

Even if the bow is useless, most of the villagers still practice without giving up. If they learn the skills, they can make it their own, and it will not be too late to buy the bow when they have money.It's not a waste of time for Ji Xuanhe to let them practice bows.One person can't afford it, but it's okay for several people to share one, which can be considered as adding some force to the village.Xilin County is close to the border, and the folk customs are tough. There are many people who know how to use simple martial arts. With a little guidance from others, the military strength can be improved a lot.

After the pilot was successful, this training mode quickly radiated to the villages around the county seat.There are only so many skilled hands, and each of the yamen servants and catchers needs to be in charge of several villages. After a long time, the villagers who practiced first have already mastered the essentials. He looks decent, and the posture of bluffing people is enough.

Even if they have learned this level, they can become a teacher, and the rest can only depend on themselves.With this group of people joining the ranks of guiding other villagers, the manpower is suddenly much more abundant.As a result, the yamen servants were released, and they resumed their work, focusing on training themselves every day. They only needed to go to the village every ten days and a half months to correct the mistakes of the villagers.

The young and middle-aged people in Ji's village also learned these things uniformly, and even Ji's workshop couldn't escape.Most of the workshops are filled with old people and children, even the elderly, but the children have to be trained from an early age.In the past, the children focused on learning skills and didn't have much time for exercise. Now they exercise for at least one hour every afternoon. After they get used to it, they can increase the amount of training.

Xilin County has no military strength, and the barracks responsible for the security of Xilin County is located outside the city. It is not big, and there are not many people in total.In addition to the barracks guarding the safety of Xilin County, there is also a guard post near Xilin County.The guards are mainly in charge of the war, not involved in local political affairs, and usually have no contact with Xilin County.The only time they met was when they raised taxes and grains last time.

"Xuanhe, take a rest and drink a bowl of soup to nourish your body. This is specially made by Duan's mother. Don't forget her kindness. You have lost weight recently, take care of your body." Shao Yunchen asked people to go down, and there were only two people left in the room , He scooped up a large spoonful for Ji Xuanhe with his own hands, then added a bowl for himself, sipped it slowly, and used it with Ji Xuanhe.

"Am I really thin? I don't see it." There are not many things that really require Ji Xuanhe to come forward. Xia Xiancheng and the others are not just pretending to be good-looking, each of them is not bad.Shao Yunchen didn't say Ji Xuanhe didn't feel it, but he really felt a little tired, either physically or mentally.

Even in the last days, Ji Xuanhe only needs to manage a team of a dozen people. This time is different. He has to be in charge of an entire county, with tens of thousands of lives. If he is negligent, countless lives may disappear with the wind.No matter how hard-hearted Ji Xuanhe is, it would be very stressful to carry such a burden on him, and he will not give up unless it is absolutely necessary.

"It's already winter, and the temperature this year seems to be lower than last year. The grassland tribes mostly feed on cattle and sheep, and there is very little food. They will not have a good winter. If the court is strong, there should be no problem. If..." Shao Yunchen did not After finishing speaking, Ji Xuanhe understood what he wanted to say.

"It's the same at any time. The grassland tribes are brave and good at fighting, and our soldiers are not vegetarians. Otherwise, there would not be only sporadic wars in these years. They are afraid of being beaten. They will not invade south unless they have to." Ji Xuanhe said so, but he also knew that the probability of this battle was very high, otherwise he had done so much preparation work, could it be that he was full?

Shao Yunchen was about to speak, but the coolness on his chest made him shiver, he didn't care to speak, and hurriedly took out the little moon pendant, the original moist luster had become dull and dull.Ji Xuanhe knew the function of Xiaoyuepei, Shao Yunchen would not take it out for no reason, presumably Xiaoyuepei must have reacted, he hurriedly put down the half-eaten tonic soup, took a look, and waited to see clearly the content on it , His eyes darkened for a moment.

Ji Xuanhe drank the remaining half a bowl of soup in two gulps, put on his coats and hurried to the county government office, only a sentence floated in the air: "Yun Chen, I leave the family affairs to you."

Before the words were finished, Ji Xuanhe had already walked a long way, and the ending sound that reached Shao Yunchen's ears was barely audible.

Time is life, Ji Xuanhe knew in advance that there would be a battle here in a few hours, but he couldn't say anything, he could only desperately find various excuses to prepare in advance.

"Boss Zhou, you send all the arresters you can dispatch to notify the village chiefs and village chiefs with warrants, and make sure the villagers follow the instructions, at least until this time tomorrow before they can go about their normal activities." Ji Xuanhe knew Time was running out, and he didn't say a word of nonsense, "You are in charge of the west and north, and let the villagers hide it for me. The reason? There is no need for any high-sounding reasons. You let the police say that there has been no war in Xilin County for a long time. The officials are afraid that they will forget about such a thing. This is to help them remember, so that they will not be able to react and lose their lives when a military disaster occurs. I will remember it firmly. Well, don’t forget to ask them to bring more food, clothing and weapons, and follow the rules of avoiding military chaos.”

Ji Xuanhe paused, and then said: "Be sure to return to the county within three hours. If it's too late, just send the warrant to the village head and chief. You can listen to them or not. Remember to return within this time limit. You don't need to go out of the city, the city still needs you. From now on, anyone who enters the city will first find a house for them to rest, and then let them go after verifying their identities. Take a look at the yamen servant and make sure Let them enter the city after there is no problem. By the way, only open the south gate, and close all the other three gates. If you sit in the town yourself, I don’t need to repeat the reason for this, right?”

"Well, this subordinate will do it now." Catcher Zhou took the order and left.

"Xia Xiancheng, you are responsible for the yamen. Your team is in charge of the east and south. The task is the same as that of Zhou Butou's team. You must return within three hours. If you can't finish it, hand over the warrants for the farthest villages The last village chief the yamen servants met, let them send someone to convey it later."

"Your official order." Xia Xiancheng knew more than Zhou Butou, although he didn't know why Ji Zhixian did this, but his keen sense of smell told him that things would never be as simple as Ji Zhixian said.Xia Xiancheng's thoughts were racing, but he kept his mouth shut and didn't ask a word.Some things, knowing too much is not a good thing.

Zhou Butou arranged for the police to deliver the letter, and he himself went to carry out the task assigned to him by Ji Xuanhe. The city gate must have exploded now, and it would be really difficult to suppress so many people without him watching.

Ji Xuanhe originally thought that Xia County Cheng and the others would object, at least he was flattered, but who would have thought that things would go so smoothly, which baffled him a bit.This kind of feeling is not unique now. Many times he feels that if it is so easy to become an official, once he takes office, all the officials under him will obey his orders, then everyone can be an official?

It's useless to think about things you can't figure out. It's better to do what you can.Ji Xuanhe then told Master Fang: "Go and inform the owners of the workshops to prepare for wartime, for the reasons above. Well, go to the market first, buy all the food on the stalls, good or bad, and take the money to Xishan Zhuangzi Put it into the public account of the county government, let the street vendors go home immediately, give some from my house, and some from your own, and ask Xia Xiancheng and the others to ask for servants if they are not enough. The market sells vegetables, and the price is based on what you charge, if you are willing to buy some, but you can’t buy all of them.”

Director Fang is not the kind of person who doesn't know the world, Jixian County said that he practiced how to deal with the war in advance. In his opinion, this is a wartime plan. When he thought of the people from the front guard to raise taxes and food, he was shocked. Trembling.After hearing what Ji Zhixian said, this feeling became even stronger. It is very good that he can believe the reasons Ji Zhixian said, but he didn't ask. He knew that even if he asked, it would be useless. Li was determined to hear only this reason.

Not long after, Xia Xiancheng returned to the lobby of the county government office.

"You came just in time, the county government is short of manpower, you bring people with warrants to bring everyone and everything in Xishan Zhuangzi into the county seat, I will let Shen Qing protect you, the carriages and people are mobilized from the officials' homes, Xishan Zhuangzi is not far from the county seat It's far away, even if you walk for an hour, you can make a round trip. There are a lot of ox carts and horse-drawn carts over there, plus what you brought, it should be enough. I will give you two hours to pack your things. If you exceed this time, don't leave the rest Now, if you don’t want to keep grain and livestock on the village, you should act faster.”

Hearing that he was going to go out of the city by himself, Xia Xiancheng hesitated at first, but then he thought of something, readily agreed, and hurriedly started to gather people.

After the incident of the human traffickers, the county government has successively purchased a lot of horses in the past few years. Although they cannot be ridden by each person, they can be borrowed by various families.

Ji Xuan and his side conveyed orders one after another, and Shao Yunchen's side couldn't be idle either.

"Uncle Qiu, you take people to bring the farmers on the village, as well as their food, livestock, fodder, and their daily necessities, to the city. Pick all the ripe vegetables in the greenhouse. You must go fast, and you must return within three hours. In the county seat, you don’t need to bring things you think are unnecessary, and you don’t need to consider large items, those are too troublesome to move.”

Qiubo immediately set out to carry out the order.The autumn harvest was over long ago, and the newly harvested grain was transported to the Ji Mansion early in the morning. Now there is not much grain on the Zhuangzi, but the amount of livestock and fodder is large. The livestock must be brought back to the county, and the fodder can be moved as much as possible.According to Uncle Qiu's memory, it should take more than two hours to complete the move.

"Qi Shan, tell the people in Ji's workshop not to run out from now on, and stay in the workshop from today onwards, let them go out when I can go out. By the way, let them prepare more Fresh vegetables." After Shao Yunchen finished speaking, he began to bow his head in thought, he had never experienced war before, and how to prepare could only rely on the experience of his predecessors and his own decision.Xuanhe is busy for the entire Xilin County, and he is not a woman, if he can't even manage a small Jifu, it will be a joke.

Time passed by, and those who knew the truth, such as Ji Xuan and Tong Shao Yunchen, had been in fear from the moment they knew it. Those who had guessed about it, such as Xia Xiancheng and others, were not much better. Only the common people They know nothing about this matter, even if they have suspicions, they are immediately denied by themselves. The news comes before the soldiers arrive. This possibility is really low. If this is the case, either the enemy is too stupid, or our own side is too smart .

South City Gate.

"What are you doing? Where are you taking us?"

"Yeah, sir, we didn't do anything wrong, what are you doing?"

……

There was a lot of noise at the gate of the city for a while, and it was not much different from the vegetable market.

This is not bad, when people who walk through the other three gates detour to the south gate, it will be called a lively event.

Although Xilin County is only a middle-level county, the county seat is not that small, especially those who go around from the north gate to the south gate, and the complaints are even louder. Fortunately, this is the Jin Dynasty, and the people naturally have feelings for the officials. In awe, they complained in a low voice, and few dared to question loudly. At most, they asked the officials why they did so.

"The county is practicing how to deal with the war in advance. When the time comes, how can we let the spies into the city? That is to say, let's go through a cutscene, check it later and then you can leave on your own." Zhou Butou explained to the county magistrate The rhetoric was repeated.

"I've been traveling all the year round, but I've never heard of such a thing. Today, it's an eye-opener. It's strange, it's really strange."

"Brother, there is a first time for everything, and it will not be unusual in the future."

"You're right. Even if you don't make any money this time, it's worth the trip."

"Okay, everyone line up, follow the people in front, and let everyone go soon after the incident." Zhou Butou himself was a little restless, and he pretended to be calm to maintain order at the south gate.

"Oh, you are from this city, which family? Who else knows you?" Some of the gatekeepers of the other three gates were helping at the south gate, and some were arranged to come to this empty house to conduct investigations.

"Wang Youcai's family, Zhou Wangcai next door knows me."

"Okay, wait a moment, someone will come to fetch you later." Ding Jia, the city gate guard said, "You rest on the side first. Next, a foreigner? Have you ever been to Xilin County before?"

"First time here."

"Does anyone in town know you?"

"I just arrived today, and no one knows me."

"You go over there and wait." Such a person is the most difficult to deal with, and Soldier A can only gather together those who are similar to this person.He thought about it, and found it very troublesome, so he discussed it with other soldiers, and finally came up with a new method of inquiry, and he said, "People from the county, someone in the city knows the platoon here, and they are from Xilin County. Those whose home is not in the city, also have people who can prove it in the first team, outsiders, who have someone to prove it in the first team, and those who don’t know themselves, line up in the same three teams as above."

This will be much faster, if someone can prove that they have been taken away one by one, and no one knows them, they can only be wronged to live in this empty house temporarily.They can't leave until their superiors confirm that they can leave.

Some of the people who were left behind were from Xilin County, but they lived in the village and no one knew them in the city. This part was easy to deal with, and someone could be found to take them back soon after the matter was over.It is more troublesome for outsiders. Fortunately, there are not many merchants in Xilin County, and there are even fewer people who bump into it when they come here for the first time. There are only a small caravan, and there are not many people in total.This time they were unlucky, these merchants had nothing to say.

The time given by Ji Xuanhe was relatively generous, and Xiao Yuepei reminded that the enemy soldiers would arrive later in the evening, and it would be too risky to go back to the city at this point, and he couldn't take his life as a trifling matter.

Jijiazhuangzi has few things, and similarly, there are few people. It is about the same time as the people of Xishanzhuangzi to enter the city.

The arresting yamen servants sent out to pass on the warrants also returned to the city one after another.

Xiao Yuepei gave too little information, and Ji Xuanhe couldn't figure it out. At this time, why didn't the barracks on the edge of Xilin County and the nearest guard post light up the beacon to warn?Could it be that the enemy soldiers bypassed everyone and drove straight in?This is also unlikely. If it were so easy, the border would have been flattened long ago.

As far as he knew, King An was not a fool. The last time someone dug out a secret channel to get news, it was just an accident. Most people would not think about it, nor would they do so.Even Ji Xuan and himself wanted to dig a secret passage leading to the outside at most. It is really not something ordinary people can do to open a secret passage in the wall to inquire about news.

Could it be that this time it is similar to last time, digging a tunnel from the border to get here?This wastes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the possibility is very low.The only way to quietly enter Xilin County is to cross mountains and mountains. Regarding this point, Ji Xuanhe has no way to verify it, and there is not enough time.

It's not that Ji Xuanhe didn't think about the possibility of Xiao Yuepei making mistakes, but this possibility is lower than the above-mentioned possibilities, and he quickly shelved it.

Xiaoyuepei has indicated the direction of approaching enemies and escape. Seeing that Xiaoyuepei's warning time is getting closer and closer, it is not his style to wait aimlessly.Ji Xuanhe thought about it, and opened the writer system. The last time the reservoir was excavated to buy water detection equipment, some of the system currency was consumed. Snacks and fruits, except for the fruits that improve the body, are ordinary items, which can basically be ignored. , A few hundred catties is only a few thousand system currency, compared with the total system currency, it is similar to drizzle.

Ji Xuanhe is going to choose a remote-controlled thermal imager this time. The technology level is not too high, and he can afford to rent it for a few 10 minutes.It was obviously inappropriate to operate this item in the county government office, so he informed Xia Xiancheng and the others, and he came back soon, and went back to his own bedroom in the Ji mansion.

As the sky was getting darker, Ji Xuanhe quickly rented a thermal imaging camera and sent it into the air through the window, while he checked it himself in front of the receiver.Shao Yunchen was still busy at this time, and he was not in the room at this time, which saved him a lot of trouble.Although Ji Xuanhe did not avoid Shao Yunchen, he tried his best not to let Shao Yunchen know if he could.

Shao Yunchen's mind is delicate, and too many secrets are rotten in his stomach, which is not good for his body.

Ji Xuanhe adjusted the direction of the remote-controlled thermal imager and walked in the general direction indicated by Xiao Yuepei. It didn't take long before he discovered that there were dense red dots on the receiver, which was the Minshan area closest to the county. The county seat can be reached in no time by horseback.

The system is convenient. As long as the things released are rented, they can be recycled in an instant, which saves Ji Xuan and a lot of things.

The Jingchao Telescope has appeared, but it is unknown who is the masterpiece of the time traveler.Ji Xuanhe didn't have it on hand, but it didn't prevent him from buying it from the system.Since it was an item that Jinchao already had, it was not too expensive to buy from the system, and it did not exceed his budget, so Ji Xuanhe immediately made a decision to buy it.

Afterwards, Ji Xuanhe mounted his horse and hurried to the North City Gate.

Standing on the wall, Ji Xuanhe looked towards Minshan through the binoculars. After such a period of time, the enemy was not far from Xilin County. Ji Xuanhe turned up the binoculars, and the enemy's figure jumped into his field of vision .

"Light the smoke and ring the bell as a warning." Ji Xuanhe said to the yamen servant behind him.

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." I don't know if the yamen servant heard it clearly, but he walked a little hurriedly, and he must have heard it clearly, otherwise he wouldn't be so urgent, probably because of this sudden news that frightened him up.
