Chapter 1015 The Tiger Banner Comes

PS: Thanks to book friend hjhking for his reward.

"This is not enough. We can only have a hot meal. How dare we ask for precious objects like quilts?" The man holding a wooden stick in his hand shook his head repeatedly.

They slept wherever they walked, and they slept in the wilderness along the way. Even though the weather was cold these days, they were just a group of people huddled together to keep warm.

The old man looked at the man in front of him and said, "Okay, you are welcome. These things are not things from our village, but people with the tiger flag prepared in advance. They are for you and the people who have escaped. The weather is cold and wooden sticks are delivered later. You can build a shed and make do with them."

"All of them are prepared by people with the tiger flag?" The man holding a stick in his hand stuttered a little.

Along the way, they suffered too much, and no government had ever taken care of them. At most, some wealthy families were serving some porridge. Unexpectedly, they were about to arrive in Lingqiu. The people with the Tiger Banner not only prepared food for them, but also prepared quilts.

You should know that only landlords have quilts. Ordinary people cannot cover quilts at all. In winter, they only fill their clothes and quilts with hay to keep warm.

The old man smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. When you arrive in Lingqiu, you only need to stay for two years. Life will be more comfortable than living in your hometown. These quilts are available in other places. In Lingqiu and our Guangling, almost every household has them. Since Lingqiu released the tiger flag a few years ago, we people have also benefited from it. Life has improved, and every household has a balance, and life is not worse than that of the Xiucai Gong."

The old man showed a happy smile on his face.

"Brother, the person who came to Lingqiu also said that as long as we are willing to work hard, our lives will be better than those of the Wangdizhu family in the village." The third brother next to the man who was leaning on a wooden stick said excitedly.

The reason they came to Lingqiu was just because they heard that Lingqiu was rich, and they would not have to worry about food and drink when they arrived in Lingqiu, and they could also earn money to build a large tiled house for their family.

Otherwise, there would be so many places where they can escape, they would not have traveled thousands of miles to Lingqiu.

A few large pots were lifted out of the village, and several suggested earth stoves were built, and the fire started to boil rice porridge in the large pot.

In addition, some wooden sticks were also pulled out by people in the village in large trucks and piled up at the entrance of the village, quilts, straw mats, and many hays were all placed separately at the entrance of the village.

The man with a wooden stick in his hand thanked the old man, and then said to the third brother beside him: "Three brothers, go and find all the men here and use these wooden sticks to build a shed. Dafeng, go and take care of the children and the old man with other women, don't let the children run around or enter the village."

The man who called Lao San began to call other refugees to work, and the woman who called Dafeng also took care of the children and the elderly with other women in the refugee.

The people in the village only prepare things and ignore any other matters. At the same time, they also arrange people to keep an eye on the entrance of the village to prevent refugees from entering the village.

Even if the people in the village know that these refugees have escaped after being affected by disaster, they must beware of the refugees' looting of their villages.

Refugees are the people, not the people, and hungry people can do everything.

While caring for these refugees, the village sent people to Lingqiu on horseback.

It takes a long walk to walk for more than thirty miles, but riding a horse is very fast, and it doesn’t take too long to go back and forth.

Just as these refugees were eating the porridge made from a big pot, a team of armor-piercing cavalry appeared at the entrance of the village from the direction of Lingqiu.

When this team of cavalry appeared, many refugees looked alert, the women held their children in their arms, and the men among the refugees stood in front of the women and children.

In the eyes of these refugees, the imperial army was not a good person, but would only harm the fleeing people. They had seen many fleeing people die at the hands of the imperial generals.

The old man who had been guarding the entrance of the village saw the stopping cavalry and went forward.

"I have seen the old man with the tiger flag." The old man bowed his fists to the cavalry in front of him.

The cavalry of the Tiger Flag often appeared nearby. As an elder in the village, he had also seen the cavalry of the Tiger Flag many times and knew that the cavalry of the black armor in front of him were all from the Tiger Flag.

A man on the horse looked at the refugee not far away, asked the old man in front of him, and said, "Is this the only one?"

"Yes, only these are the only ones. I have prepared hot porridge and quilts and straw mats according to the regulations of the tiger flag. The wooden sticks that built the sheds were also given to these refugees who escaped from Shaanxi and Gansu." The old man said in response.

The man on the horse nodded and said, "You have done a good job. Let's stay here today for you to take care of them. Those who come back tomorrow will pick them up. Take this wooden sign and go back to Xujiazhuang to get food."

It is not in vain for the people in the village to take care of these refugees. Every time a group of refugees is taken care of, the tiger flag will compensate them for some of their food.

The old man took a wooden sign, then bowed to the other party, and said, "These people who fled were really pitiful. If Lord Liu had not saved these people with kindness and hoped for the court, he would have died."

"Okay, let's watch the people in your village here. I'll talk to these refugees." The man on the horse's back said to the old man.

As he said that, he turned over and got off the horse.

The old man next to him said at this time: "The person who is leaning on a stick in his hand should be the one who is the leader of these refugees."

He was afraid that the person with the tiger flag was not known which one it was, so he pointed it with his finger.

The cavalry with the tiger flag nodded, then walked towards the refugee mentioned by the old man.

Although the other cavalry did not dismount and went over, they also carried the musket in their hands and stared at the refugees with a vigilant look on their faces.

Soon, the cavalry came to the man with a wooden stick in his hand and asked, "Who of you guys is effective?"

Simple, rough.

Before the man with a wooden stick could speak in time, he saw his third brother blocking in front of him and said with a vigilant look: "You, what do you want to do? We are just the people who have fled. If we can't stay in this place, we can leave."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you." The cavalry said with a smile, then pointed at it with his hand, and said, "The porridge you drink is still prepared by us."

At this time, the man with a wooden stick in his hand pulled away the third brother in front of him with his hands, looked at the cavalry in front of him and said, "I don't know which general's subordinates are. If there is any offense, we will apologize to the soldiers first."

"Is he still a scholar, can he be famous?" The cavalry looked up and down at the man in front of him.

The man with a wooden stick in his hand shook his head and said, "I have only been studying for a few years and have known some words. Unfortunately, I don't have the talent to study, so I have passed the exam."

"I am not a subordinate of any general. We are the cubbous cavalry of the tiger flag. After receiving the news that a refugee has arrived in this village, come and confirm it." The man holding a wooden stick in front of the cavalry team said.
