Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years

In the Jin Dynasty, three-level divisions of prefectures, counties, and counties were implemented.

Because refugees often make trouble, and to prevent martial arts people from acting recklessly, there are standing soldiers at each level of division.

Naturally, Juhe County also has it.

However, most of the land and resources in the county were previously controlled by the Huang family, so there were not many standing soldiers, less than two hundred people.

If there is a war, you must recruit civilian husbands or train militiamen.

Now these less than two hundred soldiers were all handed over to the command of Monk Hui Shi.

When many soldiers on the city gate tower saw his arrival, they immediately stood upright and saluted.

"Yes." Huishi nodded, walked up to the female wall, looked outside the city, and immediately frowned, "There are so many victims."

Juhe County is adjacent to the Hong River, and the overall terrain is quite flat. In front of the city gate is a flat river with many houses and farmland further away, making it look like a small town.

This is actually because the Huang family was too oppressive in the past. Many people had no place to live in the city, so they had to move outside the city to build houses and reclaim some thin fields to survive.

However, after Cui Heng ordered that all the Huang family's land and property be distributed to the people, the people in the small town outside the city all moved back to the city.

These houses had been deserted a few days ago.

Now it happens to be occupied by people who have fled here. Looking at the number of people who have fled here, there are really three to four thousand people.

"Chen Wei, what do you think we should do?" A soldier guarding the city came over and asked Monk Hui Shi.

Monk Huishi's lay name is Chen, and his identity in Juhe County is called Chen Hui.

As for this "wei", it is an honorific title for his identity.

Those who lead troops in the county can be called county captains. Although Monk Hui Shi does not have this position, he is actually leading troops. It is normal for his soldiers to address him as "Chen Wei".

And those government servants who follow him will still call him squad leader.

"Ask ten people to prepare." Hui Shi said solemnly, "When the notice from the county magistrate arrives, follow me out of the city."

"Yes!" The soldier nodded immediately.

…

Zhao Goudan huddled in a dilapidated house outside Juhe County, staring straight at the steaming cauldron in front of him.

Keep swallowing saliva.

Although what was cooked here was just some wild vegetables caught from the farmland, it still made his mouth water.

He hadn't eaten in two days and was now very hungry.

A fifteen-year-old boy is just growing up and cannot stand hunger at all.

"Uncle San, can you eat it?" Zhao Goudan asked feebly, and then he began to breathe heavily. Just saying these few words made him feel that he had exhausted all his strength.

So hungry!

"Wait a while, just wait a little longer." The third uncle is a middle-aged man in his forties. He is tall but looks very weak.

At this time, he was also staring at the wild vegetable soup in the pot and kept swallowing his saliva. "The wild vegetable soup must be boiled thoroughly, otherwise it will ruin your stomach and your life will be lost."

After a while.

"Okay, it should be ready!" Uncle San's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly scooped out a bowl of soup from the pot with a broken bowl, blew a few breaths, and handed it to Zhao Goudan, "Drink, drink. .”

"Okay, Third Uncle, you, you drink it too! Woohoo, it's so hot!" Zhao Goudan picked up the bowl and drank it. He screamed when he was burned, but he just blew a few more symbolic breaths, and then He drank it again and again.

I'm really hungry!

It was obviously just a bowl of soup made from rotten wild vegetables, but it made him feel like he was eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

"Third uncle, here you go, drink it." Zhao Goudan gave the broken bowl to his third uncle.

The two of them grabbed a broken bowl, and they had to take turns drinking soup.

"Haha, you have a conscience." The third uncle laughed heartily and scooped another bowl of soup for himself. When the hot soup entered his mouth, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his gray face.

"Third uncle, do you think the county magistrate here will take us in?" Zhao Goudan regained some energy and began to look forward to the future, "Will he give us a bite to eat?"

"I'm afraid not." The third uncle shook his head, scooped out another bowl of soup and handed it to Zhao Goudan, sighing, "Our Dachang County was attacked by that Yangou, and Juhe County will be next.

"Furthermore, Juhe County is adjacent to the Hong River and is definitely a must-have place for Yangou. For this county magistrate, every piece of food is the confidence to resist Yangou. It cannot be distributed to rogues like us."

The battle to defend the city is, to some extent, about food reserves.

"Yan Gou must die!" Zhao Goudan gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "If I can become stronger one day, I must kill that Yan Gou with my own hands and avenge my father, my mother, my brothers, sisters, and uncles!"

Since King Yan's army encountered stubborn resistance in Dachang County, a massacre was carried out after the city was broken.

Not only were the county government officials and garrison soldiers killed, but they also looted, killed, and set fires, insulted women, and committed all kinds of evil. Dachang County almost turned into a purgatory on earth.

Zhao Goudan's father was beheaded by King Yan's army in front of him, and his mother couldn't bear the humiliation and hit the wall and died.

If the third uncle hadn't arrived in time, even he would have been killed.

In the end, only he and his third uncle were left in Zhao Goudan's family, and they managed to escape from the city with all their might.

"Yangou will die if he or she commits unjust acts!"

The third uncle also yelled and cursed, but after scolding, he sighed and said with a wry smile, "I don't know how many days we can survive. These wild vegetables can't last long."

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside...

"The military master of Juhe County is here, the military master is here, everyone, come out quickly, come out quickly!"

Someone was shouting outside.

Third Uncle and Zhao Goudan looked at each other and couldn't help but panic. Could it be that the Juhe County Magistrate sent troops to drive away the rebels like themselves?

The two hesitated before going out.

No matter what you are going to face, staying together with others at this time is the best choice.

Zhao Goudan followed his third uncle, mingling in the crowd and looking ahead with his feet on his feet.

I saw a military attaché wearing fine iron armor arriving here with ten soldiers.

This military attache was tall and burly, with lightning-like eyes. Just looking at him would make you feel frightened.

Many victims became commotion and were all very vigilant.

They were all afraid that the military attache was here to drive them away.

Although the houses here are dilapidated, they are still a place to live, and there is farmland where you can get some food and barely survive.

If you leave here, I'm afraid you will die in a few days.

No one wants to die.

"Everyone, don't worry, don't be afraid!"

At this time, Zhao Goudan heard the leading military attaché shouting.

His voice was not very loud, but it was heard clearly.

"The county is kind and kind. Not only does it allow you to continue living here, but it also promises to open a warehouse and provide food for you!

"The county magistrate also promised that if King Yan's army attacks, he can let you take refuge in the city and will not let you encounter military disasters again.

"Remember, this is all a favor given to you by the county!"

Boom!

The group of victims immediately became excited, and everyone had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Then it became ecstasy.

Three to four thousand people knelt down one by one and bowed in the direction of the county seat.

"The county magistrate is a kind man!"

"Never forget the kindness of the county gentleman to survive!"

"Long live the county magistrate, long live!"

Everyone cheered, and the cheers were mixed with the sobs, which were tears of joy.

Zhao Goudan was also cheering in the crowd.

He also fell into ecstasy and imprinted the magistrate of Juhe County deeply in his heart.

This was a gift of survival, and he vowed to devote his whole life to repaying it!

…

In a house in the city.

Fang Min had just settled down with Zhou Caiwei when he heard the news that the county magistrate was going to open a warehouse to release food to help the victims outside the city.

This horrified her, and was even a little difficult to understand.

So, she found Zhao Guang and asked, "Master Zhao, are the rumors outside true? Is the county magistrate going to open a warehouse to release grain to help the victims?"

"Exactly." Zhao Guang nodded and smiled, "The county magistrate is a kind-hearted person, so naturally he cannot bear the suffering of the people."

He also received a summons from Cui Heng and learned about the decision to release grain.

"But King Yan's army is coming!" Fang Min said anxiously, "How can we defend the city if we release grain now? If we persist for too short a time, we may not even have room for negotiation, and the entire city will be attacked by soldiers. Disaster of disaster..."

Even if a top expert attacks King Yan's rear, it will take time.

This requires Juhe County to hold on for a while.

"Senior sister, I heard that there are three to four thousand victims outside." Zhou Caiwei suddenly said, "If the county magistrate doesn't release food, they will all starve to death."

"Having said that, but..." Fang Min hesitated, she didn't know what to do in this situation.

"This county magistrate is very smart." Zhou Caiwei said with a smile, "I think since he decided to do this, he must have prepared backup plans, and he will never let him lack food while defending the city."

"Junior sister, you are so confident?" Fang Min said in surprise.

"Senior sister, have you forgotten?" Zhou Caiwei said with a smile, "When we were inquiring about the news earlier, you were shocked when you heard the various actions taken by the county magistrate. Such a powerful person will definitely consider all aspects. Question."

"..." Fang Min fell silent after hearing this, and then saluted and apologized to Zhao Guang, "Master Zhao, I was a little impatient just now and was a little disrespectful to the county. Please forgive me."

"Actually, the county magistrate has already expected that the girl will feel anxious." Zhao Guang said with a smile, "The county magistrate has already told me that if the girl has any doubts, she can ask him in person tomorrow."

Fang Min was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, knows things like a god."

…

Inside the Juhe County Yamen.

Lu Zhengming looked at the account book of the granary in his hand with a wry expression, and said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency, there are not even a few kilograms of grain in the official granary, which is not enough to help three or four thousand people."

The grain previously seized from the Huang family was basically distributed to the people. There was no increase in the management of the granary, and it was still at the original bottom level.

"Don't be anxious, take me to the granary to have a look." Cui Heng stood up from his seat and said with a smile, "As long as there is a grain of rice, the rice can fill the granary and all the people can live."
