Chapter 463
A burst of colorful troops came, and the Huns on both sides guarded the infantry in the middle like a tide, and the infantry surrounded the carriage in the middle, mighty and mighty, Xiao Chuan looked at the box after box of things behind the car with a feeling of uneasiness in his heart. Well, that is of course potatoes, a good thing for fighting drought and floods. It turns out that poor people in the older generation eat potatoes every day. Although they will starve if they have this thing, they will not die of hunger.Some people in the older generation ate potatoes every day, and some even almost became a staple food.

There are abandoned villages on both sides. Among them, you can see that the abandoned villages have been rejuvenated. Wooden or earthen houses are piled up one after another. The houses are made of mud and weeds. They look like It was very simple and quick to do, and one of the sallow and emaciated hungry people looked at the army with different eyes.

They are no longer afraid of people in iron armor. They understand that people with the banner of the Qingzhou Army will bring them stability and hope, just like their current life. In this way, there are children or young adults in the village , They formed an array and trained in full swing, especially the children. They trained very hard and did not show any fear of the armies on both sides, and even ran away to seek refuge.

The person standing next to them might be their mother, but she was holding a cane and watching her child train. If she accidentally hit it, the child cried in pain. People who have experienced the natural disaster of bandits, they were beaten. Homeless and humiliated by persecuted bandits with powerful force, they are naturally yearning for force.

People who have been baptized by the flames of war will stand up better than other groups of people and have a greater desire for force. Just like the Beifu soldiers formed by the hungry people in the north in the Jin Dynasty, they are more belligerent than the comfortable southern soldiers, because they clearly understand that people without force What will happen and what humiliation will be suffered.

"This place will definitely produce elite soldiers in large numbers in the future." Xiao Chuan nodded and said, places with strong folk customs often produce elite soldiers, but they often produce infantry, because troops like archers and cavalry need money to play, so they will You can build a horse farm here, and places like bow and arrow can't waste this martial atmosphere.

For example, riding and archery, in ancient times, could only be practiced by rich people. Ordinary people don’t even buy a good war horse, even if they give him a horse, they have no money to support them. Only landlords can practice horse archers, the strongest army in ancient times. It is worth mentioning that under the urging of the Han and Tang military duke system, the landlords practiced riding and archery. Later, the landlords educated their descendants to study, so the knights of the six counties and the three rivers were absent, and they became a family of literati.

In every village, you can hear the sounds of training, or the scenes of parents beating and scolding their children. In other places, children are beaten and scolded because they don't study well, but here they don't practice martial arts well. In the distance, there are a group of more than ten people. The [-]-year-old children are still practicing their riding skills with their childlike innocence. The pony they ride seems to be a Sichuan horse.

"What are these children?" Xiao Chuan asked strangely, looking at them, they were training very seriously and dignifiedly, but there were no parents watching them.

"This is an orphan!" said Bai He, clasping his fists on the side, "Their parents were killed by bandits or horse thieves. Mr. Wang Heng set up such a horse farm between several villages for these children to practice riding." Shooting, equestrian. They watched their parents die by swords, so they trained very hard, and many of the remains of soldiers who died in battle were also sent here."

oh!Xiaochuan nodded, looking at their fierce looks, and said, "In ten years, there will definitely be a strong army, but it will be too expensive." The cost of raising horses on the grassland is not the same as raising horses in the mainland. Horses raised on the grassland can be free range. However, the Central Plains Dynasty relied on the mainland to spend more and more money. Such a horse farm is simply a small gold-swallowing beast. It should be noted that one horse can eat six people in the family, one man will die, and one war horse will be eaten in one day. Fifteen kilograms of things can't be stocked in a farm with only weeds and farmers around.

Fortunately, there is an ecological farm to support it. If potatoes are planted, they will be more stable. After ten years, they will be a daunting soldier.

"The three prefectures in northern Henan have 30 households with 110 people. In ten years, there should be [-] elite cavalry here," Bai He said.

"It's ten years anyway." Xiaochuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he didn't want to wait another ten years.In half a year, there will be a big battle in Songshan.

"Sir! The governor of Henan sent by the imperial court has arrived." A man in black came to the side holding a letter, and everyone was stunned.

Open it and see that there is the word Zhou Yun on it, and the words on the back are the clansmen of Zhou Tingru.Just like in history, Zhou Tingru still rose and extended his hand to Henan. In history, he colluded with Liu Zeqing, the general soldier of Shandong, and now Liu Zeqing was wiped out by himself, but he controlled Henan through his own people.

**************
"Is this the Guide Mansion in Henan?" A middle-aged man wearing a red official robe rode on a horse with a look of contempt, but he never thought that he would come to such a remote place. Zhou Tingru asked him to save one by one. The official came to such a remote place to fight with a general from another province, and said, "Oh, since Zhou Tingru entered the cabinet, he has been paying less and less attention to me, the second uncle, and asked me to do this kind of drudgery. "

A man who looked like a butler at the side said to the soldiers on the city gate, "The governor of Henan is here, why is there no one to greet him!" Zhou Yun also looked forward angrily, the governor is a very big official, the governor of a province The military and political power, but he did not expect to come here, but no one paid attention to him at all, and the people around him looked at this man in a bright red official robe with strange eyes.

After a while, a group of soldiers in iron armor holding spears, bows and arrows appeared on the gate of the city.They saw a group of people below and said coldly, "Who is it!" Sharp bows and arrows were aimed at this group of people.

"I've blinded you. This is the Governor of Henan, Mr. Zhou Yunzhou. Call the person in charge here quickly." The housekeeper said coldly, "If you are late, be careful and you will lose your head."

"Kill them!" An officer above immediately gave an order, and each archer immediately pulled his bow and arrow, aimed at these officials, and was ready to shoot their arrows at any time to end their lives.There are also crossbowmen who use their feet to pull the bowstring to quickly wind it.

"No, my lord, they want to shoot arrows!" The butler said in horror, he could clearly see a group of Beifu soldiers on the city wall.

shoot arrows?If Zhou Yun was struck by lightning, he looked at the people on the city wall in disbelief, and hurriedly retreated. Are they crazy?He actually wanted to kill himself, saying, "I am the Governor of Henan, the Governor of Henan"

"Huh, Governor? Not the governor, not the county governor, and the three ministers and the nine ministers don't have this position, so they shouldn't be high officials." The colonel snorted, and after thinking about it, he was ready to kill this group of people who made rude remarks.

 After playing pure mobile phone, I feel confused

  The scholar is confused. I attended my distant sister’s wedding today, and I had to hold an umbrella for her to help unload the car. When the groom was asked to kneel and sing Conquer, I was looking for a washboard, but when I couldn’t find it, I found two bricks. , the groom seems to be very grateful to me.

  Tomorrow is the official wedding, I will make a big table for dinner, and I will help move the table in the afternoon with a lot of things. I just signed a chapter in the evening.
