Chapter 52 Can't Run

 Cao Yao was naturally wanted, many times, and the arrest documents were spread from Shanxi to Shaanxi.

But this thing is useless to him.

Because Captain Cao Du Wu is proficient in disguise, he can paint Han people as Mongolians and women as men.

But this is not the key point. In this era, arresting wanted criminals is almost meaningless just by blocking the front and chasing after them. Mainly because of the strict non-governmental organizations, the Baojia system is the most important link in hunting down criminals.

Cao Yao rarely gets separated from his subordinates. Being with this group of veterans is the most critical condition for him to escape pursuit.

They had just reached the mountain pass. Uncle Cai Zhongpan had been waiting here for who knows how long, and he was nagging them as he walked towards them.

He complained that Liu Chengzong didn't send anyone home to inform him when something unexpected happened, and everyone in his family thought something happened on the road.

But before my uncle could say a few words, his eyes widened when he saw Liu Chengzong behind him. Cao Yao led the crowds of people on the dim official road toward Black Dragon Mountain, shoulder to shoulder, helping the old and the young.

On the way into the mountain, Liu Chengzong first told the story about the refugees, and then he took out the arrest documents with concern and told his uncle about the matter.

Unexpectedly, Cai Zhongpan smiled when he saw the document, as if a big stone had been lifted from his heart, and clapped his hands and said: "Good thing, don't worry about what the book manager wants to do, it has nothing to do with Ruji, it's none of his business, so my uncle didn't give it to you

Your aunt's family is causing trouble."

Cai Zhongpan is talking about his brother-in-law Chen Ruji, who fled with him.

Thinking of this, Cai Zhongpan felt very relaxed and said: "Ruji will go to the county town tomorrow to meet the book office and see what he wants to do."

Cai Zhongpan's only dissatisfaction with this sea arrest document is that the blame given to him by his superiors is basically a blind writing.

He remembers clearly what happened that day, and the little military leader who was trying to grab the credit was shot to death by him in a fit of rage. He may have injured a few when he rushed out, but it was not fatal.

There are at most two lives to bear, and there is no way eight people died.

Besides, he didn’t steal the money.

As long as the officials who write documents have a brain, they have to think about how much two hundred taels is.

Wearing winter clothes, carrying weapons, carrying a backpack, and carrying more than ten kilograms of silver, he went to assassinate an officer, killed eight officers and soldiers, and even escaped calmly while being chased and intercepted.

To be honest, Cai Zhongpan felt that the person mentioned in the document was not him, but a god of war.

And this thing shouldn't be called a sea fishing document. It's a warning to Yan'an Prefecture to be careful, a God of War is coming to you.

Which commoner who has eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard dares to provoke this person in the document for a reward of five coins?

Anyway, Cai Zhongpan doesn’t dare.

Back in Xingpingli, these farmers still had to find a way to rest at the old temple at the head of the village. They also found a few other old cave dwellings, asked a few tenants to help burn the earthen kangs, and temporarily placed them in, leaving two households.

There was really no place to live, so Liu Chengzong took him home.

Originally, the Liu family in Xingpingli lived just fine, with no luxury or comfort. They were content to have enough food and clothing during the disaster years.

The time point when the change came was when the two sons returned home. With outsiders, there were more sources of information, and the unrest outside also affected the people in the valley.

Everyone tightened their belts and built a fortress on the mountain. The officers and soldiers came to ask for food. The old temple village in nearby Changping was massacred. The accidents happened one after another too quickly and too quickly. It was hard to accept, and we had to learn to accept it.

.

Just like this moment, Liu Chengzong brought a stranger into Xingpingli. The neighbor elders of the same clan were not surprised at all. They stood up with a smile and reported to Liu Chengzong's mother: "Sister-in-law, the little lion is back and has brought a few strangers."<

/p>

My family is also used to it.

Brother Chengzu didn't know what was going on, so he had already packed the luggage carried in the wing and carried it into the brothers' room.

Mr. Liu leaned on a small crutch and sat in the middle hall, quietly waiting for his son to explain the reason.

In this world, people's ability to withstand surprises has rapidly increased, and nothing can surprise them anymore.

As soon as Liu Chengzong entered the courtyard, he unbuttoned his armor and brought him into the hall to pay homage to his father. Liu Xiangyu laughed and said, "Go to a city where you are dressed like you are fighting. The land deed has been drawn and secured by the government?"

"Go back to my father. I've finished drawing the armor. I don't want to wear armor. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Cotton clothes and armor can suffocate people to death. The mount is really weak. I don't have enough food to eat and have no strength in the border fort. It's hard to go home.

After it's full, practice its strength so that it won't hold you back if something happens in the future.

And if you don’t go to Fucheng, you won’t know that outside the city there are illegal men wearing armor and holding knives running around.”

Liu Xiangyu nodded slowly, and when he saw a layer of sweat on Liu Chengzong's forehead, he couldn't help but smile. He waved and said, "It's okay. You drink water first. I heard your mother said that she brought an outsider back. What's going on?"

"There are more than just these."

Liu Chengzong picked up the tea bowl that was left to cool on the table and drank tons and tons of it. After swallowing, he wiped his lips and said: "Eighty mouthfuls, the new regulation of the city to deal with the hungry people. Every purchase of 100 acres of land must resettle one refugee household for the government. The original intention is

Asking the big households to contribute, our small family, which is trying to make a fool of itself, is also regarded as a big household and adds a banker to Liujiazhuang."

After speaking, he carefully looked at his father's face.

He could express his worries to Cao Yao, but when it came to his father, obedience and respect had long been engraved in his bones.

In the past two days, he has become accustomed to seeing others look sad when hearing about this. Not to mention that there are many things at home, and there is a lot of pressure on his father's shoulders. He is afraid that he will become furious after hearing this and get angry again.

"Well..."

Mr. Liu took a long breath and did not complain like others. He said slowly: "Good governance, working together to overcome difficulties, this is what the government should do."

The old man got up and took Liu Chengzong to the study. As he walked, he asked: "When you come, you will take care of the food. How many strong men are there in this group of eighty?"

"Thirty-four strong men, sixteen healthy women, six old men and women, and twenty-four little children."

"Thirty-four, forty-six, come with me."

As he spoke, Liu Chengzong followed his father into the study. When he saw the old man, he picked up his pen and said: "The soil in our Shaanxi area is barren, and it is hard for people to work hard. Farm work does not stop for a year. A strong man needs to be full, and the monthly grain is sixty pounds;

The remaining forty-six people have a monthly eclipse of thirty or forty kilograms. Calculated in this way, it will last until July, at least seven thousand two hundred kilograms."

"There are still border troops to support, which is another expense. The old temple village asked thieves to rob it. My family can give you seven or eight dan, but it is not enough. What are you going to do?"

His father's open-mindedness was beyond Liu Chengzong's expectation.

And the support of seven or eight shi of grain is particularly strong considering Heilongshan’s limited financial resources.

This emboldened Liu Chengzong, and he said: "I want to ask for donations from the villages forty miles north and south of Panlongchuan in the name of the strong people of the northern village. Each village will donate three to five shi, seven or eight shi per household for several months."

, each repairs the beacon fire, and encounters the police..."

Liu Xiangyu looked calm as he sat behind the desk and chuckled: "Are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?"

The reason why the imperial court does not restrict the armed forces of local militias is because of two reasons. The first is money and food, the second is equipment, and the third is returning the power to command the military to the public. In fact, it boils down to financial power. With financial power, all local armed forces can kick out the imperial court and go it alone.
p>

It doesn't matter how many people's training regiments Liu Xiangyu organizes, but it's completely nonsense to ask other villages for food donations when the imperial court can't pay them.

Liu Chengzong was not discouraged and continued: "When a thief calls the police, I will lead the cavalry to attack. Liujiazhuang is twenty-five miles to the north and sixteen miles to the south. We can arrive in an hour after hearing the police. This can ensure that the villages will no longer be attacked."

Slaughtered by thieves."

After hearing this, Liu Xiangyu shook his head and said: "This matter is not impossible, but we can only ask others to discuss it in private, and the name of Beixiang Minzhuang cannot be mentioned.

Unless you can go to Fucheng to ask the prefect to agree to this matter, you can ask and see which yamen will agree?

If my parents don't talk to each other, even if the thieves pass through the mountain pass, my father will not have the authority to lead the people to attack, let alone privately seek donations in the countryside. I know that you and your brother are not afraid of trouble."

Mr. Liu sighed, raised his finger and pointed at Liu Chengzong, saying: "You have to tell Cao Guan team when you go back that there are other ways to provide food. Don't cause trouble. The officers and soldiers dare not attack thieves but they dare to suppress you, but they can't defeat you."

, hundreds of people from up and down Black Dragon Mountain can’t escape here.”
