I'm playing tricks in Daqin
Page 304
Although this battle was chaotic, not only were the young and strong in the two villages fighting together, women and half-grown children all fought together, and the level of all the people being soldiers was higher than that of the grassland tribes in the Kingdom of Jin.
"Yeah, I didn't expect these villagers to be so... fierce."
Li Wei said with a strange face.
At the beginning, the Tang army was vulnerable to the Qin army. Wherever the Qin army went, there was no undefeated army or city in the Tang country. This also gave the Qin army the impression that the Tang people were weak and vulnerable. From the commander-in-chief to the veteran soldier, Li Wei, who participated in the battle to destroy the Tang Dynasty, also thought so.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes today, Li Wei wouldn't have known that the Tang people still had such a fierce side.
"Come on, let's go back."
Seeing the emperor leaving with a strange mood, Li Renhe also looked confused. On the grassland, it is common for various tribes to conquer each other. The more martial the people are, the stronger the army's combat power will be. Distressed?
In this era, it is common for neighboring villages to quarrel with each other in order to compete for water sources and land boundaries, but this is the first time such a large-scale fighting has erupted.
Chapter 710
As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation in the whole Jinghuai County. Tian Baoping, who had just taken office, didn't even understand the household registration in Jinghuai County, so he got involved in this matter. Facing the noisy county officials, the restless Tian Baoping directly After blasting them away, they immediately came to Li Wei.
"Your Majesty, this is the current situation of the fighting between the two villages. How to deal with it, I ask Your Majesty to judge."
"You are the sheriff, something happened in Jinghuai County, what do you want me for?"
Hearing Li Wei's words, Tian Baoping couldn't help but look bitter, "Your Majesty, I used to be an official, but that was a small official. Now I'm an official close to the people, and I'm in charge of a county all at once. I really don't know what to do. Is good……"
At this time, Tian Baoping wanted to cry. If he could be valued by the emperor in normal times, and sit on the position of sheriff at a young age, he must be proud of himself.
Even if there is something that I don't understand, with the support of my father who is the chief assistant of the cabinet, he will definitely send me a strong enough staff team, so that I can learn slowly while being a county guard.
But now, Guiyuandao is making a lot of trouble in Jinghuai County, and he may rebel at any time, and the emperor is watching him from the sidelines. The pressure in his heart makes Tian Baoping breathless.
"The two villages are fighting, why is the county in such a panic?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, in half a month, it will be the day to release water to irrigate the fields. At this time of the year, there will often be incidents of fighting caused by water grabbing in Jinghuai County, but today it broke out ahead of schedule. The officials in the county are worried that this year The scale of armed battles may increase, and it is required to send county soldiers to guard various places."
"What do you think?"
Looking up at the weird smile on Li Wei's face, Tian Baoping hurriedly lowered his head in fright.
"Now that the situation in Jinghuai County is unclear, the county soldiers must not be dispersed, and must be firmly in our own hands."
"Since you know, what's the point? You can't stand the pressure below, and you won't be an official close to the people in your life."
Hearing the impatience in Li Wei's words, Tian Baoping hastily expressed his loyalty and then resigned.
As soon as Tian Baoping left, Li Wei couldn't bear the irritability in his heart, and directly swept all the things on the desk to the ground.
The reason why he was able to "visit" the fighting between the two villages with his own eyes was because he received a note, which appeared on his desk.
In my study room, a note appeared, and the guard in charge of security didn't even know about it. Is this a kind reminder or a deliberate provocation?
Thinking of the mystery displayed by Gui Yuandao, Li Wei was even more annoyed.
At this time, Tian Baoping actually went back and forth, and came back at a trot all the way.
"You, what else is there?"
"Your Majesty, something happened again."
"what's up?"
"Bandits suddenly appeared in the east and south of Jinghuai County. More than a dozen businessmen were robbed, and two villages were robbed. Official documents were also sent from the three counties below. There were signs of banditry in their counties. .”
Li Wei, who was in a state of irritability, heard the news and almost jumped up and down.
Whether it was village fighting or bandits suddenly rampant, there was only one purpose, to force Tian Baoping to send out the county soldiers.
There are a total of 300 soldiers in Jinghuai County, which seems to be a lot, but to defend one county and seven counties, there can only be more than [-] soldiers in one defense.
If the county soldiers are sent out, not only will the defense of the county city be empty, but if a small number of county soldiers leave the city, they will also be ambushed by Guiyuandao because the troops are too scattered.
Seeing that Li Wei was silent, Tian Baoping could only bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, if you send troops, the county will be in danger, if you don't send troops, the fighting will be impossible to stop, the bandits will be rampant, and the people in the county will be tortured, it's better to... Are you going to enter Jinghuai County?"
"Where are the soldiers transferred?"
"Now the frontier army needs to defend the Three Kingdoms of Han, Chu, and Jin, so they can't move lightly. How about mobilizing soldiers from surrounding counties?"
"Hmph, if they can mess up Jinghuai County, they can also mess up other counties. No matter which county soldiers are transferred from nearby counties, a lot of bandits will emerge from that county."
Li Wei frowned and said.
The bandits are erratic, not to mention the main army of the Qin Dynasty, even the soldiers of Jinghuai County can destroy them in a frontal battle, but the biggest problem in suppressing the bandits has always been not defeating the bandits, but how to find the bandits, how to Beware of bandits escaping.
The purpose of these bandits is not to eliminate the soldiers of Jinghuai County, but to attract them. If it is not enough to mobilize the troops from other counties and mobilize the main force, Gui Yuandao will hide again after hearing the news, and it will be even more difficult to find them.
Tian Baoping also knew that he had committed the taboo of beggar-thy-neighbor, and his brain was running fast, but he couldn't think of a good solution.
"There is no army to mobilize, so let's form an army! As the county guard, you give an order to allow the civilians to form militias."
Hearing Li Wei's words, Tian Baoping couldn't help being taken aback, and hurriedly dissuaded him: "Your Majesty, you can't! Since ancient times, letting go of the martial arts ban has been a way to bring disaster! The local wealthy clans have an army, and they will inevitably form a separatist regime..."
"I have already made an order, you carry it out."
"His Majesty……"
Tian Baoping wanted to persuade him again, but he didn't have the guts of his own father, and he completely lost his confidence just by looking at Li Wei, so he responded honestly.
On the mountain, everyone was burying their heads in digging animal traps. At this moment, Peng Sanshui suddenly screamed, "Everyone, come and see, I found a treasure!"
As soon as they heard that someone had found the treasure, everyone threw away the half-dug earth pits and rushed over immediately.
"Where is it? What baby? Why didn't I see anything?"
"I didn't see it either, where is this baby?"
Head to head, everyone squatted around Peng Sanshui, but they didn't see anything. They thought that Peng Sanshui was trying to make these people happy, "Obviously there is nothing, your skin is so itchy!"
Seeing that everyone was about to hold him down and beat him half-jokingly, he held his head and begged for mercy: "Hey, what I said is true. Look below, I only dug a small corner, and you have to help me dig it together." .”
A sharp-eyed mountain dweller found a white thing on the way, "I saw it over there. It seems that what he said is true, but I don't know if it is a treasure. Let's dig it out together to see what it is. .”
Only then did everyone realize it, so they all got serious and got up to dig the soil. After a while, everyone worked together to dig out the white object, which was covered with a layer of soil. They brushed it with their hands, and gradually revealed the original face.
"It turned out to be a statue of a god. I thought it was some kind of treasure."
"Wait, isn't this Kuimu Tianjun?"
The sharp-eyed mountain people recognized the true face of the statue, "But why is the statue of Kuimu Tianjun here? It's strange."
As soon as everyone heard that it was Kuimu Tianjun, they immediately knelt on the ground and bowed down. At this time, Li Shoubo heard the news and hurried forward with a walking stick.
"This is not Kuimu Tianjun."
Li Shoubo looked at it carefully, and then shook his head seriously. Everyone felt that his old eyes were dim, so they retorted: "This is obviously Kuimu Tianjun."
"According to Li Shoubo, people eat more salt than us, since there must be someone's reason."
Most of the mountain people still respect Li Shoubo very much. If he says no, they think no.
"Look, it's true that this wearing and headgear belongs to Kuimu Tianjun, but when you look at your face, it's not Kuimu Tianjun at all."
Li Shoubo spoke slowly, and only then did everyone observe the details.
"So that's how it is. I just said it's a bit weird, but from a distance, it really looks like Kuimu Tianjun wearing a crown. No one noticed this face at all."
"Why do people still portray Kuimu Tianjun's face wrongly?"
Everyone just found it strange that this stone statue was supposed to be enshrined, but it was buried underground. If the mountain people hadn't come to dig the traps today, they probably wouldn't have found it.
"Isn't there any meaning to this..."
Li Shoubo twirled the beard on his chin with one hand, leaning on a crutch with the other hand, lost in thought.
"Hey, everyone, look, does this face look like a person?"
Suddenly, a mountain dweller pointed at the stone statue and exclaimed, "Isn't this the Heavenly Stone Immortal?"
When everyone looked at it, they really felt like it. They felt familiar before, but they hadn't thought of who they looked like. He said that it must be Tianshi Immortal.
Peng Sanshui clapped his hands suddenly, "Does this mean that Immortal Tianshi is the reincarnation of Kuimu Tianjun? Otherwise, why would there be Kuimu Tianjun's clothes and headgear, and his face? This is simply implied Yes!"
After being told by Peng Sanshui, everyone nodded and felt that it made sense. At this time, Li Shoubo spoke.
"If you say it like this, I think the myth that came out when Immortal Tianshi was born is not surprising."
As soon as they heard a strange story, everyone became interested and asked Li Shoubo to tell it in detail.
"Do you know why the emperor is called the Chosen One? It's because when they are born, there are always some visions in the sky. Ordinary people like us naturally don't have them.
But it also appeared when the Celestial Stone Immortal was born, and this vision was even more mysterious than the birth of the emperor. I remember it was winter, everything was quiet, and there was heavy snow that day.
Just when Immortal Tianshi was about to be born, a colorful ray of light suddenly appeared in the sky, hitting directly on the mansion where Immortal Tianshi was born, melting the snow for miles around. "
Everyone listened with gusto, Li Shoubo suddenly sneezed, and continued to speak: "The most amazing thing is that the melted place is full of flowers, and a hundred flowers are blooming, it's winter, and it's near their home.
The rest of the surrounding area is still silent, only their mansion is like a fairyland.
Because it was late at night, not many people saw it, but they were still seen, and everyone has been passing on a myth that Immortal Tianshi is not an ordinary person. "
At this time, Peng Sanshui added: "I read the ancient records before, Kuimu Tianjun symbolizes hope and happiness, and wherever he goes, there must be a scene of prosperity. Doesn't this mean that Immortal Tianshi is the reincarnation of Fork God? "
Chapter 711 I Have a Home Remedy
"Isn't this too coincidental?"
The mountain people live here all the year round, almost a small village isolated from the world. They thought that such myths and stories could only be recorded in ancient books, but they didn't expect it to happen in reality.
"Who said no?"
Li Shoubo continued to say: "If it is a coincidence that Immortal Tianshi was born, then some of his behaviors in the future are not. He has been kind and generous since he was a child, he often helps others, and he is extremely smart.
It is said that from time to time his body always exudes a kind of light that makes people want to get close to him, and staying with him always feels inexplicably at ease. "
Peng Sanshui nodded, with a serious face, "I don't think this is a myth or a coincidence. This may be an early warning from the heavens. Why do you think this stone statue is buried underground?"
The crowd was silent.
"Today we dug him out, and at first we worshiped him as Kuimu Tianjun, but later Li Shoubo told us that it was not Kuimu Tianjun, and it turned out that he was the Celestial Stone Immortal, why not? Are you and I not what he looks like?"
"Peng Sanshui is right."
Li Shoubo nodded, "According to the old man's years of experience, this matter is by no means as simple as what we see now. Everything is a coincidence. Let us find out today, which means that this opportunity has arrived."
When Li Shoubo and Peng Sanshui said this, the villagers all felt that it made sense.
"It turns out that Tianshi Immortal is really the reincarnation of Kuimu Tianjun."
"Who said it wasn't? It's really unexpected. Let's quickly move the stone statue back and enshrine it. In the future, there will be a reincarnated god like Tianshi Immortal to take care of us. Our future days will be safe and smooth."
As they said that, everyone carefully carried this stone statue that looked like Immortal Tianshi back to the village to worship. Everyone already believed that Immortal Tianshi was the reincarnation of Tianjun Kuimu.
Watching the mountain people carefully wipe the dirt on the gods, the faces of the Tianshi in the distance are full of smiles, there are Peng Sanshui and Li Shoubo leading the rhythm, and there are statues carved according to their own appearance, how can a group of foolish people do this? Are you the reincarnation of a god?
Tianshi didn't expect Tian Baoping and Li Wei to be so tolerant, fighting in the villages, bandits looting, they all pinned down the county soldiers, and would rather let go of the military ban than send troops.
But that's good too, if the military ban is lifted, Gui Yuandao can openly form his own armed forces.
Now the reincarnation of the gods has also appeared, but Tianshi can't do it. After the news spread, the two little guys, Li Wei and Tian Baoping, can still hold on to the county soldiers. As long as they send the county soldiers out of the city, their chance will come.
Li Wei's lifting of the civilian martial arts ban in Jinghuai County was regarded as the biggest opportunity for the dynasty's rule. In the eyes of many people, this was the way to bring disaster.
When the Great Qin Emperor embarked on his death-defying journey, a dozen cavalrymen escorted a carriage along the official road at a fast pace.
"Hey, it hurts me to death, come quickly."
Inside the carriage, Wang Rusheng covered his stomach and rolled in it. Han Yanlin outside the carriage immediately stopped the coachman and opened the curtain. Seeing Wang Rusheng swaying, he thought he was having some kind of moth again.
"what happened?"
Even so, Han Yanlin had to inquire. Although he had received the order to take Wang Rusheng back, if any accident happened on the way, he would be fully responsible.
I saw Wang Rusheng scratching the interior of the carriage with his hands like rolling over, "My stomach hurts, it hurts so much."
"But for convenience?"
Han Yanlin thought he had caught a cold and ran away.
"No, this is an old problem of mine. As long as I get sick, I will be in so much pain that I can't do anything."
How could he have a stomachache? I didn't see any symptoms from him just now. According to Han Yanlin's experience, Wang Rusheng probably pretended to delay the departure time.
Seeing that Han Yanlin didn't believe it, Wang Rusheng hurriedly explained: "What I said is true. I usually look fine, but once it flares up, the pain is unbearable. If you don't believe me, you can ask them. My servants know it. I'm afraid it's okay now." The law is on its way."
How could it be such a coincidence? Even if it was true, Han Yanlin would not believe it. How could such a coincidence happen to him in the world.
