Chapter 1683 Peasants and Soldiers
The team followed North Street and walked out of the city gate and rushed towards Yanmen Pass.
Liao Wenguang had just gone from Yanmen Pass to Shanyin County not long ago. The team he led was full of familiar faces. The guards of Yanmen Pass did not make any difficulties and directly sent the team out of the pass.
Shortly after entering Shanyin County, there were jade wheat with slightly yellow leaves on both sides of the road, and there were many busy farm work coming and going in and out of the ground.
"Stop!" Liao Wenguang called the coachman to stop the carriage, and then said to Sun Chuanting, who was in the same carriage, "Brother Boya knows what these things are planted in the ground?"
"Yuma." Sun Chuanting replied with a smile.
Liao Wenguang showed a hint of surprise on his face and asked, "Brother Boya has seen this thing?"
"I only saw this thing for the first time half a month ago. At that time, the jade wheat in the field was not mature. Unlike today, where so many people in the field are busy with farm work, it seems that these jade wheat can be picked." Sun Chuanting explained with a smile.
Liao Wenguang asked curiously: "I wonder where Brother Boya saw this thing? Who planted the jade wheat? If possible, I would like to meet this strange man who dared to be the first of others."
There are not many places to grow jade wheat. I have never heard of any family growing jade wheat in Taiyuan Prefecture. He is very curious about who chose to grow jade wheat with a rare grain.
"Isn't it just these people in front of you?" Sun Chuanting whispered out of the carriage.
Liao Wenguang was stunned at first, then smiled playfully, and said, "Since Brother Boya has been here a long time ago, why bother to joke with me?"
"Short after returning home from the capital, I heard that there was such a neighbor next to Daizhou, so I wanted to come and take a look. Senator Liao had come here and it should be clear that along the road, the fields were planted in this kind of thing. Out of curiosity, I inquired with my nearby fellow villagers and realized that this thing was called Yumai by the local people." Sun Chuanting explained.
Liao Wenguang said: "Since Brother Boya has just been here not long ago, why do you still have to go with me? This trip is not to appreciate the customs and customs under the thieves. I am afraid it will be a hindrance to Brother Boya."
He couldn't understand why Sun Chuanting could come to Shanyin County by himself, so why did he have to go in the same car with him?
"To be honest, the last time I came to Shanyin County, I wanted to walk around and take a look. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in Shanyin County, I was recognized by Liu's thief, so I had to return to Daizhou. This time I went with Senator Liao, just to be able to walk along the way and see the situation here more. I also asked Senator Liao to take care of it." Sun Chuanting bowed to Liao Wenguang, who was in the same car.
Liao Wenguang frowned slightly and said, "If I remember correctly, Brother Boya seems to have never been an official in Datong, and most of the people from Liu Zhe came from Datong, so how can I know Brother Boya?"
"That's how terrible it is." Sun Chuanting said solemnly, "Even the thief can recognize this official who has never been an official in his hometown. It can be seen that the thief's methods are very extraordinary. If two armies face each other, one side is touched by the other side, how can they be defeated?"
Liao Wenguang hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Boya will worry too much? Maybe someone I know will recognize you, Brother Boya."
"I hope so too, so I have to look at Datong under the rule of Liu Zhe, look at the troops of Liu Zhe, and understand the more you can gain a better chance of victory in the court. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the others can you win in every battle." Sun Chuanting said.
Liao Wenguang laughed and said, "I think Brother Boya is too worried. How capable can a group of thieves be? The Yinxiang Sect made such a big fuss, sweeping over half of Shandong, Henan and other places. It was still easily wiped out by the court."
"The Liu thief is different from the Xu thief. At least the Xu thief seems to be very powerful, but it is not enough to compete with the imperial army. The Liu thief defeated the sief sent by the imperial court several times, which shows that the army is not weak." Sun Chuanting said.
He was a Jinshi from Zhenwuwei and knew more about military affairs than most civil officials who had only read a few books on military books. He knew very well that he could defeat the bandit army of the imperial border army several times, and was definitely not an ordinary bandit.
In the entire Ming Dynasty, except for the slave thieves in Liaodong, there were no rebels capable of defeating the border troops.
Seeing that Sun Chuanting was so persistent, Liao Wenguang was not good at saying anything, so he said, "Since Brother Boya wants to see it, then follow me. Even if I go to Datong Town all the way, I have business to go to Datong Town this time, so I hope Brother Boya doesn't do anything that makes me embarrassed."
"Senator Liao is worried. I only wear one pair of eyes this time and do nothing except to look with my eyes." Sun Chuanting assured Liao Wenguang.
Liao Wenguang bowed his hand with his fists and said, "Thank you, Brother Boya, for your strength."
As long as the other party doesn't cause trouble, he doesn't care whether there is one more Sun Chuanting around him. As for the expenses on the road, even if it is all for himself, he will not spend much money.
What's more, all the expenses along the way will eventually be distributed by Taiyuan Prefecture.
"I have also seen it. Senator Liao, please see if it's time for us to go on the road?" Sun Chuanting asked.
The fields on both sides of the road are filled with people who are busy with farm work. He is not a literati. No matter how lively the busy farming scene is, he will not write paintings and poems to express it.
Liao Wenguang said: "Don't worry, wait a little longer."
Seeing this, Sun Chuanting had to wait with him.
It didn't take long, and the person in front of the team always returned to the carriage.
"Master, the person is here, do you want to meet me?"
"I'm gone, everything is the same as last time, just make the decision yourself." Liao Wenguang replied in the carriage.
"I understand the little one."
He rode his horse away with a swagger.
Sun Chuanting, sitting in the carriage, heard the clouds and mists, and asked curiously: "Who are Sen. Liao waiting for?"
"Since Brother Boya has been to Shanyin County, I want to meet the peasant soldiers in the village, right?" Liao Wenguang asked.
Sun Chuanting shook his head.
He had never heard of peasant soldiers.
The last time I came to Shanyin County, I never encountered any peasant soldiers. I only saw a group of soldiers guarding the city at the gate of Shanyin County.
"Brother Boya doesn't even know about the peasant soldiers in Datong?" Liao Wenguang didn't expect Sun Chuanting to be so curious about the situation in Datong, but he didn't even know about the traitors' establishment of the peasant association and the establishment of the peasant soldiers.
Sun Chuanting frowned and said, "Please explain it to Senator Liao next year."
He was very curious about the peasant soldiers, and for this reason he did not hesitate to put down his figure in front of Liao Wenguang.
"I also came to Datong once before I knew what the peasant soldiers were." Liao Wenguang did not shirk away and explained to him what he knew about peasant soldiers.
After listening patiently, Sun Chuanting said, "Isn't this a group training formed by a large gentry family? If Liu Zhe did this, he would not be afraid that the people below would listen to the tune or not in the future."
"It's different from the regiment training." Liao Wenguang said, "The focus of the peasant soldiers is on the peasant association. The peasant soldiers are not owned by someone. The knowledge is under the command of the peasant association. Although the number is not large, it is enough to maintain local public order."
