Attack after the end of the Sui Dynasty

I picked out a few new products and sent them to a few acquaintances. The appearance and figure of these acquaintances were not of high quality. After working for a few days, I didn't get much money.

After Fang Wuliang sent away the messengers in the yamen this day, he wanted to find a few more ruffians to help. Since his closest buddies had an accident, it was not easy to buy people.In the past, when a few people combined, they could always buy someone even if they were cheated or forced, but now he is left alone, and it is difficult to trip someone up.

Who knows, the ruffians in this city don't dare to hang out with Fang Wuliang at all, the news has already spread, Fang Wuliang doesn't know which hero he has offended, and now he is coming to seek revenge, and the people around him have been slaughtered.He was so scared that he only dared to live in the city, and had to change places every few days.

These ruffians are nothing more than just wanting to make a living, and they really want to work for others. When they see Fang Wuliang, they come to look for them, and they all smile and say that they have something to do.No matter how many benefits you have, if you don't go, Fang Wuliang will be half dead.These people were right in thinking, Lin Tong had indeed been thinking about Fang Wuliang's head, but he hadn't found a suitable opportunity recently.If they really followed Fang Wuliang, they might die like those five people at some point.

At this time, the prelude to the second conquest of Goguryeo kicked off.

In the spring of the ninth year of Daye, in the first month, Ding Chou, Emperor Yang ordered all soldiers from all over the world to gather in Zhuojun, recruiting warriors to be the Xiaoguo Army.

In addition to soldiers, there are also a large number of civilian workers who transport food. Now that Shandong is in chaos, these civilian workers will naturally come from other places.Many people in Wangjia Village have been conscripted to be civilian husbands, and Wang Da is one of them. The Wang family's wife's eyes are red from crying, but she can only prepare her husband's bedding and ox cart for a long journey.Lin Tong felt a little uneasy. The age he reported was only fifteen, and the age set by the government was 21, which is six years behind, so he probably wouldn't have himself.

It's a pity that Lin Tong didn't understand the detailed rules of the ancient corvee. In the third year of Emperor Kaihuang, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered that the age of Cheng Ding who received land and assumed taxes and servitude be raised from 21 to 11 years old. age from 16 to 15.That is to say, Lin Tong was 16 years old last year, and he was not required to serve in the military according to the rules, but this year he is a [-]-year-old middle-aged man recognized by the government, and he can undertake hard labor.Although he didn't get the land grant, who cares if you get it or not.During the reign of Emperor Sui Yang, it can be said that there were many large and small projects, and sometimes even women had to do hard labor. How could the government let a boy of his grade be let go.

In fact, as early as when the first attack on Goguryeo failed, Emperor Sui Yang began to prepare for the second time. Although he was defeated, he ordered Liyang, Luokou, and Taiyuan to continue to transport grain northward.The civilian husbands this time were just to make up for those who died a few months ago. There were not enough people recruited, so men of his age were also found from the list.

Sure enough, within a few days, Lin Tong was notified by the party leader to serve in the military.Hearing that he was going to become a civilian husband, the first reaction in Lin Tong's mind was to run away with his son.Although this may bring bad luck to everyone who is protecting him, but he can't be a civilian husband. He will leave six-year-old Lin Nan here for someone to take care of.The men in this village were expropriated. At any rate, there were old people at home and a wife who could take care of them, but Lin Nan relied on himself. If he left, his son would become an orphan.

Here, Lin Tong had just started thinking about running away, but Lin Nan fell ill, vomiting and diarrhea, and had a high fever all over his body.

It was fine at noon, so how could it be like this after a while?When I asked Mr. Chen, I realized that the little guy ate a lot of food from other children outside today.

During this period of time, Lin Nan has become familiar with the children in the village, and will go out to play for a while every day.Lin Nan has a handsome appearance and a well-behaved personality, and he often has some snacks in his hand to share with the children around him.The children in the village were also very happy to play with him, and shared with him any new food, but today I don't know which family's children he ate, and he ended up like this.Seeing Lin Nan vomit in the dark, Lin Tong's heart really felt as if it was fried.

Looking at Lin Nan's reaction and the things he vomited, Lin Tong felt like he had food poisoning.There are no doctors in the nearby villages. If you go to the city, it will take more than three hours to go back and forth by riding a horse.If it was really food poisoning, Lin Nan couldn't afford to wait at this time.Chen Xian felt that he was not optimistic about Lin Nan, so he blamed himself so much, he turned his head and ran out without saying a word.He was going to look for Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng was an old hunter. He knew a lot of herbs and knew some medical skills. Usually, if someone in the village was injured or something, he would ask him for help.

Lin Tong didn't bother to care about Chen Xian at all at this time, he calmed down, washed his hands, opened Lin Nan's mouth, found a chopstick and stuck it in, pressed the root of his tongue, and lightly touched his tonsil, the little guy woo He struggled a bit, was hugged tightly by Lin Tong, and then huffed and vomited all over Lin Tong. After Lin Nan finished vomiting, Lin Tong poured a bowl of light salt water into the little guy again, and continued to induce vomiting. It wasn't until Lin Nan couldn't vomit anymore that she went to change her clothes.Lin Tong had heard that inducing vomiting in a conscious state, the effect of detoxification was even stronger than gastric lavage.

Lin Nan vomited a few times, his whole body had no strength, and he couldn't cry out. Tears kept falling, his breathing became more and more rapid, and his face was flushed with heat. Lin Tong touched his forehead and felt Very hot.Unable to procrastinate, Lin Tong picked Lin Nan up, wrapped the little guy in a blanket, and found out all the money in the house.As soon as he went out, he saw Wang Cheng running over panting with a basket of medicinal herbs, and Chen Xian followed behind him.

"Quick, let me see." Wang Cheng grabbed Lin Tong, "What's the matter? My son said that Nan Nan ate his stomach badly, what did you let him eat!" Wang Cheng became anxious as he spoke.

"I don't know, and I don't know what he ate and that's it." Lin Tong didn't care about etiquette at this time, and ran out quickly with Lin Nan in his arms.Wang Cheng snatched Lin Nan, looked at the coating on his tongue, then went to look at Lin Nan's vomit, and grabbed some herbs from his medicine box, "The child is already sick like this, you should at least pay for it if you go to the city Two hours, he can't last that long at all, he's about to boil these things."

Chen Xian was not as fast as Wang Cheng, and he had just arrived at this meeting. Before he could catch his breath, Wang Cheng grabbed the money from Lin Tong's pocket and handed it over, "Quickly go to the city and ask a doctor. Go donkey." Chen Xian nodded vigorously, grabbed the money and went to find Wang Liang.Wang Liang is their landlord.The relationship between the two parties is not bad on weekdays, Chen Xian said what he wanted, and he agreed.

Lin Tong looked at the herbs, but he didn't know any of them.Although he trusted Wang Cheng, he didn't dare to let his child take medicine indiscriminately. He was already poisoned, and if he took the wrong medicine, his son would really be hopeless.Seeing that Lin Tong was hesitant to go, Wang Cheng grabbed the medicinal herb and went to boil it by himself.Before leaving, he gave Lin Tong a glare.That means that if you let my godson do something good or bad, I will never forgive you.

When Wang Cheng boiled the medicine, Lin Tong had to try it himself before giving it to Lin Nan.Lin Nan was a little dizzy from the burn, and it took half an hour to pour a bowl of medicine into it.Seeing Lin Nan's uncomfortable appearance, Lin Tong only wished that he could take this pain instead of him.Seeing how dry Lin Nan's mouth was, Lin Tong got up and got a bowl of light salt water and poured it down slowly. He waited until dark, and finally Chen Xian came back with the doctor.

Fortunately, Lin Tong's first aid measures were considered appropriate. After the doctor came, he prescribed some antidote drugs.After nearly a day of tossing, Lin Nan's condition finally slowed down, and his breathing became stable. Although his forehead was still a little hot, it was much better than the high fever in the afternoon.

Listening to Lin Nan's steady breathing, Lin Tong's nerves that had been collapsing for a day finally relaxed. At that moment, he felt that all the strength in his body was taken away. It might kill someone.Fortunately, my son is fine.

At night, Lin Tong and Wang Cheng took turns guarding Lin Nan's bedside, and the doctor invited from the city lived in Lin Tong's room.The two were talking while guarding Lin Nan.

"If you don't have enough money, I have some more." The doctor asked for a lot of money for outpatient visits. Lin Tong's family had three meals, and he was the only one who worked. Wang Cheng was worried that he didn't have enough money.

"It's okay. I have saved enough money." Lin Tong went to Fang Wuliang's place and searched for a lot of money from his home. In addition to the money he earned from going out to work, it was enough for the three of them to live on.

"Hey, I'm going north to transport food this time. I don't know when I'll be back." Wang Cheng touched Lin Nan's head as he spoke. He really regarded Lin Nan as his younger generation. He is kind, but he is well-behaved and sensible. If you treat him one point, he will repay you three points. Wang Cheng really likes this child from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother Wang, why are you going to transport food!" Lin Tong asked in surprise.

"Almost all the men in this village have gone, and you think I can escape." Wang Cheng looked at Lin Tong, recalled what Lin Tong said just now, and was taken aback, "No way, you will be conscripted too."

Lin Tong nodded with a wry smile.

"Then what about Nannan?" Wang Cheng knew that Lin Tong's family was unaccompanied here, and when he left, there were only two young ones left in the family, who were waiting to die.

The author has something to say: After Emperor Sui Yang came to the throne, he put Cheng Ding's age at 22, but I forgot where I found it.
