Kingdom of Heaven and Han

On the north side of Lishi County, where Shizhou is stationed, beside the Dongchuan River, many people who fled here gathered.They set up huts, lived in shabby living, and lived on food provided by the army.Although the life here is simple and difficult, it is much better than before.

Today Kong Silang got married, and the whole shanty town was bustling with joy.

"Qianji is here! Qianji is here!" Huzi who greeted the guests at the entrance of the village ran across the street like the wind, shouting as he ran.

Father Huang is taking two stools with missing legs from his home.Seeing Huzi passing by, he couldn't help frowning: "Which Qiang jurisdiction? Who can invite him?"

As he spoke, he shook his head again and again.

Walking to the street, I saw a group of people walking towards the village surrounded by a young general.That general was really young, with a childish look on his face, and he didn't look like a general who should have been battle-tested.Several personal soldiers clustered behind him, appearing to be of high status.

Huang Adie curled his lips and followed the team towards the entrance of the village.

Seeing the people welcoming him so much, Zhang Jun was in a good mood, nodding to the people on both sides from time to time.

As soon as he walked through the village, the groom hurriedly greeted him when he got the news.

Kong Silang began to hear that there was a ban, but he didn't pay much attention to it.The reason I invited Jiang Min was to help scout the place when the army first arrived, and I just happened to meet Jiang Min.I also want to know, as the commander of the first army, how could Jiang Min come?When the time comes to send an officer, it's fine if you feel it.

After hearing Huzi's introduction, he was startled and rushed out to greet him because he was an official of the same age as Dutong.

Zhang Jun saw a middle-aged man, he inserted a big chrysanthemum obliquely, and ran towards him.When he arrived, he hurriedly saluted.Said: "The little man Kong Siyun married a lady today. Please trouble Qianxia to come here in person. It's really dead!"

Zhang Jundao: "Since you sent the invitation card, how can you pass if you don't come? But the governor is busy with business, so don't mind if I come instead."

"Don't dare! How dare you!" Kong Silang said while asking Zhang Jun to go first.

Zhang Jun walked on the road, looking at the houses on both sides.Most of them are local materials, and the houses are built with branches and thatch.There is little rain locally, so there is no worry about water leakage.It's just that it's winter, and the measures to keep warm are not good. Most people use reed wadding to keep warm.

When we arrived at the head of the village, most of the people in the village had already gathered here.Seeing Kong Silang coming surrounded by an officer, he hurriedly saluted.

Zhang Jun let everyone take their time and sat down at the table in the middle.A sheep, two chickens, two ducks, and two big carps weighing five catties were slaughtered by the crowd and counted as dishes for noon.

Kong Silang is from a poor family. He slaughtered a sheep today, but he still borrowed money.Fish are caught in the nearby river, although there are quite a few, but there are no big fish.The gifts brought by Zhang Jun are very rich for a hard-working family.

Regardless of whether they were scholars or tenants in the past, they all happily watched the slaughter of sheep there, without any discomfort from the smell of blood.These people have not eaten meat for a long time, and eating meat today is more important than anything else.

Although the sheep here are cheap, these people have no money, and the cheapness is not something they can eat.

Kong Silang took a cup of hot tea, put it on the table, and said to Zhang Jun, "Drink tea with Qianxia!"

Hedong is inferior to the Central Plains, and the quality of tea is poor.The tea I ordered was extremely cloudy, with grains of sand, like mud.

Zhang Jun said with a smile: "I forgot, but there is tea in the gift I brought. In the Central Plains, making tea is popular now, so it's not as troublesome as ordering tea. Come, bring the tea leaves, and let everyone have a taste. The tea maker The method is said to have come from a poor family, but now everyone, rich or poor, high or low, uses this method."

The people under his command took out the tea leaves and brewed a bowl of tea for Zhang Jun with the big porcelain bowl from Kong Silang's house.He took another kettle, sprinkled tea in it, and brewed it with boiling water for everyone to drink.

Zhang Jun looked at his subordinates who were busy, and asked Kong Silang casually: "I don't know who the bride is? I just want to marry you."

Kong Silang said with some embarrassment: "To be honest, the bride is still from a wealthy family. She was originally from Mengzhou, but because she was born beautiful, she married a member of the family as a concubine. When the Jin army came, it was inevitable that the family would be ruined." , was captured by a general of the Jin army. Later, when the Xuanfu army came north, the golden general died in battle, and she drifted away with everyone. When she came to Shizhou, life was really difficult, so she married a younger one."

Zhang Jun laughed when he heard this: "You are lucky, you got a little lady for nothing."

After a while, except for stewed meat and other dishes, the wine and dishes were initially prepared.A banquet was held at the entrance of the village, and Zhang Jun was invited to sit down.

Zhang Jun didn't refuse, and took the first seat.

After busy work, Kong Silang invited several older and respected people to sit with Zhang Jun.Said: "Today is the day of our marriage, please come to have a banquet and be a witness. Thanks to the love of the army, Zhang Qianxia came here today, it is really flourishing! Qianxia is an extraordinary person, please He lectures!"

Zhang Jun stood up and said with a smile: "Why is it a lecture? Today is a good day for the groom. On behalf of the army, I came to express my congratulations. Yesterday, when I first arrived in the army, Du Tong made a special confession that Kong Silang came here for the first time in the army. Don’t miss the time today. I told you about the military affairs in the morning, and I hurried over. I said so much because my fourth brother had contributed a lot to the army, so I had to come. The others Don’t use it as an example.”

Kong Silang nodded again and again, and said happily: "What kind of person is Qian Xia? How can you just say please? Don't worry, everyone knows!"

Zhang Jundao: "As far as I know, one commander is now in charge of a thousand households. If you have any weddings and ceremonies, please ask the commander or detainees in the future. They will come. Within a month, they will tell you which commander is corresponding."

Kong Silang asked: "This commander is like a county magistrate, isn't it?"

Zhang Jun shook his head: "No. It's just because there are too many people nearby and there are no officials, so it's hard to control, so let the commanders organize them. After they are organized, they will find ways to reclaim the surrounding land and build villages."

Kong Silang shook his head again and again: "We are all poor and have nothing. Even if there is open land in the wild, we can't cultivate it—"

Zhang Jundao: "Even if you are not poor people, you have nothing now. Since you are asked to cultivate the fields, the government will naturally provide farm tools and divide the land. Make sure that everyone has land to cultivate and can support themselves."

Kong Silang said: "Is there such a good thing?"

Zhang Jun smiled and said: "Why is there no such good thing? The government provides agricultural tools and seeds, otherwise how do you farm? Of course, the agricultural tools and seeds provided are considered as loans from the government. They can't be given to you for nothing, right? The food is grown, Take it easy again.”

"It should be so." Kong Shiro nodded.Looking at the people around, they all nodded, obviously agreeing.

This is one of Zhang Jun's missions today.Let the people know about the follow-up arrangements and see their reactions.

Eight thousand people, if they cannot be organized, will be a mess.Only when it is organized, whether it is camping or doing other things, is it a powerful force.Due to the lack of officials, it can only be organized temporarily by military officers.Even if a battalion manages a thousand households, it does not need a few battalions.

Generally speaking, the population of a household in the Song Dynasty was about three people.Of course, children don't count.However, the fleeing families have fewer households, and the [-] people are about [-] to [-] households.According to common sense, one thousand households is a county, which is a very large scale.

(Don’t dare to say anything nonsense anymore. I can only say that the sequelae of the new crown are very severe, and it has not been cured yet. But starting tomorrow, I will try my best to keep it updated.)
