Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1599 Sifang Beacon Man

  Wars will inevitably bring a large number of refugees.

Humans are also a species with animal habits. For their familiar territory, they will not abandon it easily unless it is a last resort, and then think that the world is better, especially for these farmers who originally faced the loess and their backs to the sky. Said, leaving their lifeblood, they are really cautious immediately like an abandoned wild dog. They want to wag their tails when they see any creatures, but they are worried that wagging their tails will cause more trouble. Hesitatingly, staring blankly, like a statue about to decay.

Because of Liao Hua's military exploits between Sichuan and Shu, this time General Zhengxi was promoted to General Hussars, and a lot of rewards were awarded under his banner. When Liao Hua was faced with a choice, he still preferred to choose from the position of deputy assistant and lead an army alone , and other places, each has its own arrangements, but here at Wuguan, because the relationship with Jingxiang was pretty good before, so it was not an important point of defense before, and another aspect is Because Liao Hua was originally from among the refugees, and Wuguan was an important node in the origin of the refugees in Guanzhong. Based on the two factors, Liao Hua was finally named the general of Wuguan, taking over the original position of Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong is a veteran of the army. In terms of ability, he is at least two or three levels behind Liao Hua, but his experience in dealing with people and affairs is extremely rich. After receiving the transfer order, not only did he not leave any hidden dangers or traps for Liao Hua, Instead, he handed over all the affairs in a clear and refreshing manner. At the same time, he also called some officials from the original Wuguan, gave a serious warning and admonishment, and formally handed over the seal of the general of Wuguan to Liao Hua in front of everyone. hands.

  Wang Zhong is old, so this time he was transferred back to Guanzhong to serve as the guard of Chang'an Pingling, which is considered a close minister, so he didn't feel any grievances. After the handover, he bid farewell to Liao Hua and went to Chang'an Pingling to take up his post.

Now that there are wars in all directions, even Jingxiang is not very stable. Although the Jingnan area is said to belong to Liu Biao, there is indeed some distance between Xiangyang and the four Jingnan counties. For example, Changsha is not bad, and Guiyang Lingling It's simply that there is enough energy to spare, especially Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling County, because of his somewhat royal blood relationship, he is not very right with Liu Biao. , but in fact, they flirt with Liu Fan from Jiaozhou and advance and retreat together. They are also secretly stirring up wind and rain. As a result, a large number of farmers in the south of Jingxiang have to avoid Latin slaves and do hard labor, and become refugees...

Although Liu Fan was named the governor of Jiaozhou, there was also a local emperor in Jiaozhou called Shi Xie. This Shi Xie occupied most of the Lingnan area, and even stretched out one foot into a rather large area that belonged to Vietnam later. Therefore, the so-called governor of Jiaozhou was ignored at all, so Liu Fan could only stay in the north of Lingnan, accumulate strength, and recruit civilian husbands.

   And there were not many people in these places originally, where will the manpower come from for the construction now?

Naturally, firstly, they secretly dug the corners of Jingzhou and the southern part of Yangzhou, and secondly, they recruited people from South Vietnam, so no matter which method was used, Liu Fan was doomed to turn into a bandit and rob the place, and Liu Du was also here. In the process, they sold the stolen goods and benefited, and they were in collusion.

  As the general of Wuguan, Liao Hua's first duty after taking office is to receive refugees. The refugees who came all the way from Wuguan Road will stop at Wuguan for a short time, and then go in batches and regions, and enter Guanzhong or Bingbei.

Wuguan was originally in the territory of the Han Dynasty, and gradually lost its role as an important pass after the Qin Dynasty, so it was abandoned for a long time at the beginning, but after a period of continuous repairs by Zhao Yun, Wang Zhong and others, it gradually became It has regained its original majestic appearance.

  Liao Hua was walking on the city wall, and tents were basically set up in all open spaces below the city. These tents are basically not to be dismantled. The people who lived in the tents before have left, and the next wave will come soon. There are dirty and messy refugees everywhere. Except for one person, they are almost like wild beasts in the wilderness. There is not much difference.

As Liao Hua, who had been among the refugees for quite a long time, although the refugees in front of him looked miserable, they were actually pretty good. Instinctive, or ferocious like a beast.

  In this year and month, as long as they know that they can barely survive, the endurance of the people is quite strong. In any case, these measures of General Hussars are indeed effective.

  A person who is completely desperate is extremely terrifying, and Liao Hua himself has experienced it twice.

  One was a sudden riot at night, without any reason, and I don’t know what the cause was. It just suddenly broke out, and everyone crazily attacked the surrounding people, no matter men, women, or children, they scratched and bit like wild beasts...

Liao Hua saw the opportunity early, and climbed up the tree when the situation was wrong. As a result, when the night gradually subsided and the sun rose again, the refugees who had spent the night in the woods had already died six or seven out of ten pavilions. There are also some **** wounded, with coagulated and uncoagulated blood all over their hands, teeth, and bodies. Broken corpses are scattered all over the forest, broken, bitten, torn, and collapsed, like a projection of hell.

Another time, there was no warning, on the mountain path, at some unknown time, someone suddenly jumped down from the mountain path numbly, without even making any cry in the air, just like a piece of wood, In the end, there was only a bang and it fell into the mountain stream, and then more people jumped down together, row by row, group by group...

  In the mountain stream, the scene of layers of blood overflowing, still occasionally appears in Liao Hua's own sleep...

   Therefore, Liao Hua knew how to deal with these refugees better.

   First of all, it is not to distribute food, but to restore order.

  The restoration of order has a very important link, which is the treatment of weak and injured.

When these refugees saw someone helping the weak and injured, order began to be gradually born. On the one hand, human beings are human after all in addition to animal nature. On the other hand, they also subconsciously realized that even Weaknesses and injuries are taken care of, so they naturally have no problems.

   Taking care of these injured patients at the same time can also prevent the spread and occurrence of many diseases. Most of the weak groups have lost their youth, and these people without youth to take care of them will often become the origin of the animal nature of the group, and eventually spread into an uncontrollable situation.

  After the order is established, it is the process of screening and separation.

  During the process of food distribution, there is force on the sidelines to maintain, everyone will be honest, and even what happened on the road can be easily asked.

  Some people who committed evil deeds on the way were basically cleared out during this link, separated from the original team, and went to the mine instead of the residential settlements. Although it is not 100% clear, it also greatly reduces subsequent hidden dangers.

  Then, these refugees were sorted, stuffed into various places, and resettled...

  Liao Hua stood on the top of the city, watching the officials and soldiers below the city carrying out all these tasks in an orderly manner. It is not the first time that these officials and soldiers have been doing these things. In addition, they have also recruited some refugees to assist them, so the speed of separation and processing of the new arrivals is not slow, and groups of new arrivals will soon be sent to Wuguan The refugees were guided according to the requirements, but at this moment, Liao Hua suddenly discovered that something was wrong...

  Refugees generally wear ragged clothes and are out of shape. If there are some tough but still strong guys among these people, they will naturally appear very out of place immediately.

  Liao Hua frowned, but when he saw these tough people far below the city, they seemed to have sensed Liao Hua's gaze, and they stood up and bowed their hands to Liao Hua.

   "Where did those people come from?" Liao Hua nodded slightly, and then asked the Master Wuguan next to him, "How long have you been here?"

The master took a look, took a roll of bamboo slips from the leather pouch on his belt, flipped through them, and said, "Those are the refugees who came here last night, and they haven't been sorted out yet. Looking at the road guides who came all the way, The certificate should have been brought by Chen Liangyi..."

   "Chen Liang?" Liao Hua repeated.

Chen Liang, that is, Chen Guo and Liang Guo, were originally reserved for the royal family, but these royal armors were basically abandoned. In the face of war, it is already a good ability to keep their own cities and palaces. They were pushed down to the ground and allowed to be fished by mermaids, so after several wars, these places are no longer as rich and prosperous as before.

The successive battles between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu took place near Yanzhou and Yuzhou. As a result, many people in this area either became peasants or became cannon fodder, and the rest naturally ran away. After losing the people, these Many places in the area gradually fell into disrepair. Except for some big cities, many former manors lost the farmers they were attached to, so naturally they couldn't sustain it, and many of them moved their families to other places.

  Like King Liu Mi of Liang, he only wanted to protect himself. In the end, the name preservation was preserved, but when it came to Cao Pi, it was simply abolished...

  In troubled times, it is simply not feasible to be alone.

   "Go and ask, where did you come from, where is your hometown, and who is your last name..." Liao Hua ordered the guards around him when he saw this. Since he didn't hide his whereabouts, the threat was reduced to a certain extent, so let's understand it first before making a conclusion.

  The person who took the inquiry came back soon, and reported: "I will report to the general, that person calls himself the Xu family, and is a Qiaoren. He came here because of the thieves, and wanted to enter the Guanzhong..."

   "Qiaoren, Xu family?" Liao Hua pondered for a moment, then said, "Call him up, take him to freshen up first, and see you in Jietang!"

   Qiao County is indeed near Chen Guo and Liang Guo, but Cao Cao’s hometown is also in Qiao County. If these people want to defect, why don’t they go to Cao Cao instead of coming here?

Freshen up, even if there may be some sharp blades hidden on the body, it will not be able to hide, and what should be exposed will naturally be exposed, and Jietang is the place where Liao Hua works in Wuguan, and there are guards everywhere. They have to be inspected when they enter the door, so after going through these two steps, if they are malicious, they will show some flaws, and Liao Hua's own martial arts are not bad, so if there is any problem, he will be able to deal with it when he is strong and heavy. Under the shield, a guy with bare hands can't turn over much waves, and it's not a big deal to deal with it.

   After about an hour, the Qiao man Xu, who had washed and washed, put on an ordinary but clean inner and outer clothes, and came to the front of the festival hall.

As he got closer, Liao Hua could see a little more clearly. This person was about thirty or so, more than eight feet tall, his arms were muscular, obviously quite powerful, his complexion was bronze, his forehead was plump, his face was straight, and his eyebrows and eyes were slender. , plus the two beards on the lips, it seems that the face is divided into three parts, which is quite distinctive, but it is not ugly.

   "Xu Ding, Xu Ziping from Qiao, has met the general!" Xu Ding bowed his hands to Liao Hua, slightly surprised in his heart. As they got closer, one could tell Liao Hua's age. How could the general of Wuguan be so young? Is it because everyone under the hussars likes to use young people, or is this a special case?

   "Want to enter Guanzhong?" Liao Hua didn't let Xu Ding sit down directly, but let Xu Ding stand like that, and asked, "Why?"

   "The people in the countryside, because they heard the reputation of the Hussar General, they admire him, and they want to see him when they enter the pass..." Xu Ding replied neither arrogant nor humble.

  Liao Hua was noncommittal, but stared closely at Xu Ding's face, examining Xu Ding's expression.

  Xu Ding's gaze looked forward, and it was generally set on Liao Hua's desk, neither appearing impolite nor cowardly and wretched.

   "Please sit down!" Liao Hua pointed to the seat beside him.

Xu Ding arched his hands, "Thank you, General!" After finishing speaking, he walked to the mat beside him, first lifted his robe slightly so that he would not be stepped on when he sat down, and then he knelt upright in the middle, let go of the The robe was covered, and the folds of the robe were tidied up...

  Liao Hua looked at Xu Ding's actions, saw his natural and steady sitting posture, and nodded slightly in his heart. Well, this should be a son of a noble family, or at least a disciple of a poor family.

   "Since that's the case, why didn't you go to Heluo? And why did you hide among the refugees?" Liao Hua continued to ask.

   "General Qi, the battle between Yanji and Hebei is impossible..." Xu Ding replied, "It's not that someone is hiding among the refugees, but he came here just in time for a meeting..."

  Liao Hua nodded. This matter is also simple. When the time comes, I will find some refugees who came with me and do some side-by-side inquiries, so I can know whether what Xu Ding said is true or not.

   "Why do you want to see General Hussars?" Liao Hua said.

Liao Huayuan thought that Xu Ding would say something about his desire to expand his mind and ambitions, and then he would show off his martial arts and literary skills, expressing his willingness to seek a job under Hussars and give back to his hometown, etc. Unexpectedly, Xu Ding cupped his hands and said: "A certain thief wants to assassinate a hussar, so he is here to report it!"

   There are many cute masters...

   The author Yan can only save more energy to see if he can split more spores...

   Please wait for two, uh, a few days...

   The author, thank you for the arrival of the leader of Yiqianbei...
