"Hi that little star, March and Five are in the east. Su Su is marching at night, and Su Ye is in public. The fate is different! Bang that little star, Wei is participating in the Pleiades. Su Su is marching at night, holding the quilt and the crotch. The fate is not the same!"
Xu Guanzhong, who was riding a horse, suddenly heard Xiao Tang lamenting the ancient poems in "The Book of Songs·Guofeng·Zhaonan" beside him. He couldn't help but burst into laughter and laughed: "Brother Xiao, although you are busy these days,
The land is very big, but it is not as good as that of a small official who is ordered around by others. If the elder brother wants to achieve great things, how can he not work hard first?"
Xiao Tang had just dozed off and almost fell off the galloping Nessing Horse. Normally, he practiced diligently and was in his most energetic years, but now Xiao Tang's eyes were about to have dark circles, and he just felt that his whole body
I feel sore and my bones all over my body feel like they are falling apart.
After settling the family members of Zhou Tong, Yue Fei and Wang, Zhang and Tang, more than 100 members of the family, Xiao Tang got up early at 9 o'clock every day these days. In addition to taking care of the daily affairs of the business, he was also responsible for the shelter and resettlement of Hebei.
When the southern bandits caused trouble on both sides of Hebei and Hebei Provinces, the victims from various states fled to Zongcheng County, and Xiaojia gathered. Although the remaining battalions of the left-behind department were involved in the training and reorganization of the battalions, although the vanguard took over the task, he himself
In order to serve as a prisoner for soldiers and horses, you have to go to the hospital from time to time, right?
What's more, I have just become Zhou Tong's disciple, so I can't neglect him. During these days, Zhou Tong will use his lifelong skills, such as the Five Steps and Thirteen Spears, and the Five Steps and Thirteen Spears derived from this modification of spear techniques.
Stab feet, red boxing, Shaolin Fanzi boxing, Zhou Tong stick, etc. all taught their formulas and mental techniques to Xiao Tang, Yue Fei and others. Although Xiao Tang benefited a lot from this, a person's energy is limited after all, and everything cannot be tolerated.
The slightest carelessness was suppressed, and Xiao Tang was very tired and miserable.
Fortunately, Su Jinniang was gentle and considerate. It was originally a reunion after a short break, but when she saw that Xiao Tang was so tired, she ordered the cook every day to prepare nourishing soups such as dangshen, wolfberry, black-bone chicken, red dates, wolfberry and pork bone soup for Xiao Tang to recuperate in the evening.
During the break, Su Jinniang only advised Xiao Tang to have a good rest. She did not ask Xiao Tang for any special sex between husband and wife after their first taste of sex...
Today, Xiao Tang, Xu Guanzhong, Yan Qing, Hua Rong, Shi Xiu and other close brothers left Daming Mansion on horseback for Xiaojiaji. This was also for the purpose of selecting the people and reorganizing the village braves in the towns under Zongcheng County and expanding the civil defense efforts in Zhuzhuang towns.
Although Zhang Di's southern Hebei bandits have been wiped out, a large number of villagers under the control of Damingfu, Enzhou, Mingzhou and other Hebei prefectures have had their crops plundered by thieves, and they cannot survive this winter. Even these people
No longer need to worry and fear, but still have to move around for a living.
Although during the Song Dynasty, there were temporary local storage and rescue agencies operated by the government such as Pingbian, Pingzhu, Zhouchu, Junbian, Zhouji and Shecang, which had similar characteristics to Changping Yicang.
Most of the charity warehouses in the Song Dynasty were also looted during the bandit disasters in southern Hebei. Secondly, although the Song Dynasty had the establishment of such social security institutions, they could not prevent corrupt officials from stealing and stealing charity grains to make huge profits. Thirdly, this time
The scale of banditry spread to several prefectures, and as many as hundreds of thousands of villagers were affected by banditry. Regarding this, Xiao Tang made a final decision: to use the abundant grain fields in Xiaoji Town and other towns in Zongcheng County to accommodate as many people as possible who were victims of banditry.
Poor refugees.
They waited for the officials to issue an order to the Sinong Temple (in charge of grain storage, warehouse management, and supply of rice to Beijing officials, etc.) to release grain from the government warehouses to relieve the victims. They also asked the affected people to do various tasks such as dredging rivers, repairing and preventing disasters, etc.
To compensate for this kind of hard work, the victims of the disaster were recruited to serve as commanders and commanders of the Xiang army through the usual recruitment policy. At this time, the phenomenon of redundant soldiers in the Song Dynasty had reached an extreme level, so those victims were recruited to serve in the Xiang army.
They can only live a miserable life of not being able to make ends meet.
In fact, after Wang Anshi passed the Green Miao Law in the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1o85), some local governments also provided interest-bearing loans to provide relief to the victims. Xiao Tang also thought about giving birth to himself with low interest or even no interest.
The stored grain was sold to the victims, and would be repaid in installments in the future when the villagers affected by the banditry had surplus grain. However, as soon as he proposed this idea, he was completely rejected by his general manager Yang Xu:
"Young Master, you have the truth that all the prosperity in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit. Even if we cannot be indifferent to the people who are suffering from the banditry in southern Hebei, we are not the Guanyin Bodhisattva with boundless power to save the suffering. I
He is a businessman. Although he is not a villain who only cares about profit and knows everything, he also knows how to choose the situation for profit and put profit first.
Banditry in Southern Hebei has spread throughout Daming Prefecture, Ming, En, Xiang, Ci and other prefectures. The young master spent hundreds of thousands of money and food to relieve the Dian, how cumbersome it is! Not to mention that this move is unprofitable, young master, what do you think?
Although the more than 100,000 villagers are suffering, there are no cunning, lazy, ungrateful people among them? Since it is not a loan from the government, then should we go to the prefectures and counties to ask for it one by one, or should we just suffer a dumb loss and just spend all that money?
All the money was thrown into the water?
Now the three horse ranches I purchased near Daming Mansion have not yet been used for horse herding. They can be used to house villagers who have been attacked by bandits. I will just choose another good land for the horse herding prison. The young master is not thinking too much.
To expand the manpower and people of the towns under the rule? In my opinion, we can recruit the victims who are willing to work as tenant farmers in the name of the owner, and then provide them with food to tide them over. I think how happy the villagers of the Xiao family will be.
?Teaching the disaster victims to live here safely, and no longer having to suffer the pain of being displaced, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds to have countless strong men under such a young master?”
Xiao Tang felt a little inappropriate about Yang Xu's proposal at first, asking those victims to leave their homes and sign a pledge with me to be my tenants and farmers, and treat me as a landlord before I can help you with food...
After all, this seemed like taking advantage of the situation. But when Xiao Tang couldn't stand it anymore, Yang Xu became more and more excited as he argued, wishing that the spitting stars would splash into his face. When Xiao Tang just sent people in advance to find out their reactions from the victims, everyone who asked them shouted loudly.
Cheers, eager to become a tenant under the rule of Xiaotang market town.
There are strongmen in Hebei, Jingdong, Hedong and other areas, and banditry is becoming increasingly rampant. These victims were frightened and robbed by the bandits in southern Hebei. Although Zhang Di was suppressed today, who knows that he will not appear again tomorrow?
Li Di, Zhao Dilai? Xiao Tang was famous all over Hebei and Shandong, and he was the supervisor of the Imperial Guards' left-behind military force. During this banditry, one of the few counties that was not broken by the thieves was Zongcheng County, where the Xiao Family Collection was located. These
The villagers just want to find a place to live a good life, so how can they not know that it is easy to enjoy the shade under a big tree?
As a result, tens of thousands of villagers poured into Xiaojiaji, Zongcheng County and other places; as a result, household registration checks, bravery training and other matters came one after another; as a result, Xiao Tang could only be so busy that he smoked...
...
Xiao Tang shook his groggy head and sighed: "Guanzhong, since you know how busy I am these days, you still come to make fun of me!"
Hua Rong, who was standing next to him, laughed and said, "But it's not like my brother said that selecting and training local heroes is a big deal. You have to do it yourself so that you can gain more military experience. Otherwise, this matter will be left to Xiao Yi and Xue
Yong, Jiao Ting and several brothers who are teachers of Xiangyong just deal with it, why is it that my brother is complaining again at this time?"
Xiao Tang smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "You guys, just tell me that I brought it upon myself! Forget it, my will has been hard and my muscles and bones are tired, but I don't know when God will come.
Are you responsible for me?"
Yan Qing, Shi Xiu and others also laughed after hearing this. While everyone was talking and laughing, the fast horses had already rushed to the south entrance of Xiaojiaji.
At this time, Xiaojiaji was no longer what it used to be. The market town was surrounded by high walls made of loess. The glutinous rice juice had seeped into the walls, making them extremely dry and hard. The walls were also high and thick, and densely covered with arrows and rolling logs.
Lei Shi. On a tower on the wall of the market town, Youxiang Yong saw that his employer had arrived and hurriedly called for people to open the hardwood tung oil city gate wrapped with iron.
When Xiao Tang and others drove their horses to the school grounds used by Xiaojiaji to teach Xiangyong, they saw thousands of people gathered in one place. In addition to the original more than 800 well-trained and practiced original students for many years, they saw
There are brave villagers and strong people, as well as the martial arts master Dan Zishou from the escort agency, and the rest are young and strong people selected from the new victims.
Most of these newly selected young men and women were displaced because of the rogue bandits from the Southern Hebei Army who harmed their homes. Therefore, they were well aware of the suffering caused by military disasters and bandits, and they all worked hard to defend their new homes, wives, children, and children. Not to mention that Xiao Tang treated the people in the market town well.
Xiangyong bodyguards are always generously subsidized with food. When they are busy, they do farm work, and when they are free, they gather for training and there is nothing to delay. Therefore, when recruiting Xiangyong, there are many responses, and they are afraid of falling behind.
Seeing that it was Xiao Tang and others arriving from Daming Mansion, Xiao Yi, the village warrior who was at the school at this time, Xue Yong, the gun and baton instructor, Jiao Ting, the boxing and kick instructor, Yang Lin, the chief escort of the escort agency, and Tang, the steward of the ordnance and ironware.
Along with Bian Xiang, Zhu Jing, Shan Shiqi and others who had recently joined the Xiao Mansion, they all came up and paid homage to Xiao Tang.
But seeing swords, guns, swords and halberds shining brightly in front of him, countless athletes were full of heroic spirit. Xiao Tang seemed to have returned to the battlefield where drums shook the sky and swords flashed. He immediately became energetic as if he had returned to his soul. Xiao Tang raised his head and said loudly
