A village chief who does not want to be a village chief is not a good villager

Jian Ping felt that the place he traveled through was not bad.It can be considered that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there are not so many thrilling intrigues.

And the only thing he needs to pay attention to is not to let the "saviors" of the border guards collapse, and then there is nothing for him to waste his brains on.

As long as Peng Xiao is a strong general, the border will not be easily breached.As long as the border is guarded, then villages like Jianjia Village, which is not far from the border, can survive well.

In addition, when talking to people like Peng Xiao, Jian Ping also likes to be straightforward.

Seeing General Peng and the three quartermasters who came over instantly because of his words, Jian Ping did not hide and told the truth about his plan.

"I came here this time mainly to see the land conditions on the border, and then use what I have learned to improve the planting conditions here."

No matter how you say it, Peng Xiao is an old fritter, and it is easy to make others think he is a reckless man.But when he didn't want others to see his thoughts, he did it very easily.

So upon hearing this, Peng Xiao just looked over calmly, stroked his beard, and looked at Jian Ping with a smile.

But the three quartermasters didn't hold back and took a step forward. "Brother Jian, if you have anything to say directly, as long as we can improve our harvest next spring, our border army will be grateful for Brother Jian's righteousness!"

Therefore, if it is said that these people did not prepare in advance, Jian Ping really does not believe it.

"You guys are serious. After all, we are mutually beneficial. I want to study the soil conditions in various places so that I can make full use of what I have learned. If you give me convenience, I should naturally return something." Jian Ping also cupped his fists in return to the three quartermasters who cupped their fists at him.

"Then I will trouble you to find someone to take me to see the situation at the border. There is one more thing I need to trouble General Peng." Jian Ping smiled and turned to look at Peng Xiao, and Peng Xiao was gone. The previous recklessness and roughness, even if he still stroked his beard in a majestic manner.

But it feels more like a wise man.

The eyes of the two met in mid-air, and they both saw the reservation and deep meaning in the other's eyes.The two smiled at the same time, and there was an extra politeness in their eyes.

"Say."

"In the recent period, Xiaowen and I may have to be busy outside, and my brother may ask the general to take care of him for a while."

Jian Ping still had that indifferent look, as if he didn't notice the two faces of Peng Xiao.However, Tian Wen, who was a little sensitive to other people's breath, was the first to feel Peng Xiao's change.Almost at the same time that Peng Xiao's temperament changed, he held Jian Ping's hand nervously.

Although Tian Wu was a step slower, but luckily his mind was opened.

This time Peng Xiao didn't hide his arrogance, raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jian Ping and Tian Wen's handshake, and then took another look at the vigilant young man.

"It's okay, the qualifications are not too bad."

Peng Xiao looked Tian Wu up and down before he said such an inexplicable sentence.Before Tian Wu could react, Jian Ping's smile became more sincere.

"In the recent period, my younger brother Tian Wu has asked the general."

"Yeah." Peng Xiao nodded casually, then looked outside the door.

Jian Ping was very discerning, and saluted the other party with his hands clasped. "In this way, we won't waste the general's time." Jian Ping looked back at Tian Wu, and his face became a little more serious. "General Peng Dayi, you are allowed to study as you go, and you should work harder."

Jian Ping calmly threw down Tian Wu, who was bewildered, and nodded at the three quartermasters.Then, in Tian Wu's widened eyes, he led Tian Wen and three excited quartermasters who didn't know what to say and left.

Tian Wu didn't wipe his face until he couldn't see the back of the group.Although he knew that his brother-in-law had only one brother in his heart, he had never felt so profoundly. He himself was a complete drag.

Tian Wu wiped his face, turned around again and bowed respectfully to General Peng. "Trouble general."

Peng Xiao looked at this child with interest. A 15-year-old boy is just a child to a 45-year-old strong man.

If Peng Xiao was willing, his son would probably not be younger than Tian Wu.

Originally, he thought that this kind of benefit exchange might be a little troublesome, but now, Peng Xiao felt that maybe this young man could give him a little surprise.

After all, it's really rare for such a young boy to have such a wink and know how to advance and retreat.

"Alright kid, as long as you're not afraid of suffering, following me will always allow you to learn something, let's go."

With a wave of Peng Xiao's hand, he immediately took off the tattered cloak.He raised his hand again, no matter what, the tattered cloak weighing a few kilograms directly covered Tian Wu's head tightly.

Tian Wu panicked for a while, and then quickly calmed down.Quickly tidied up the cloak and held it in his arms, obediently followed Peng Xiao out of the meeting room.

My brother-in-law has already won the opportunity for him. As for how much he can learn, it is indeed up to him as General Peng said.

Tian Wu's side is full of tragic and heroic self-reliance, but Jian Ping and Tian Wen's side are much more relaxed.Why can't Tian Wen see that this is a good opportunity that Jian Ping helped Tian Wu win.

After all, Peng Xiao is also a second-rank hussars general, no matter what, the person who can learn from the opponent is always Tian Wu who will benefit in the end.

From the moment he left the conference hall, Tian Wen couldn't restrain his joy.Tian Wen always felt that the bond between him and Jian Ping was already the happiest thing in his life.

Therefore, between the two brothers, Tian Wen always felt that the person who needed to be taken care of was Tian Wu.Whether it's his childhood habits or his exceptional happiness now, he also wants to make his younger brother better.

Jian Ping looked at Tian Wen, who was shaking the hands held by the two of them involuntarily, with crooked eyebrows and eyes, and unconsciously laughed along with him.

It's a pity that I'm away from home, so I still have to worry about many things.In the end, Jian Ping could only hold back his urge to kiss Tian Wen, and squeezed back his hand slightly.

And it was such a small change that made Tian Wen look up sensitively.After seeing the smile in Jian Ping's eyes, the corners of Tian Wen's pursed mouth rose even more, and the two small dimples around his mouth were also faintly visible.

The sweet and cheerful atmosphere between the two made the three quartermasters look at each other, and then silently chose to watch silently.

In order not to cause bad things, but also to maximize the friendship with Jian Ping.The 'quartermaster' sent over this time was specially picked out by Peng Xiao in the barracks. He has uneven appearance, aggressiveness, gentle demeanor and good eyesight. Most importantly, the ability to pretend to be pitiful is better than other abilities. a lot of people.

So these three people basically couldn't see the killing spirit that the frontier army should have.And these three people who are good at using soft knives and pretending to be pitiful will never make people feel dissatisfied with being forced.

After the three of them looked at each other, it was Quartermaster C who finally looked at Jian Ping with emotion. "You two have such a good relationship."

Sure enough, the three of them saw that Jian Ping's breath was a little more gentle, and the smiles on their faces were a little more.

Jian Ping just looked down at Tian Wen with a smile in his eyes but didn't say much.On the contrary, it was Tian Wen, his face flushed slightly, but he still firmly looked up at the three guides beside him. "Thanks."

With just two words, the three quartermasters also laughed, and this time there was a little more sincerity in their smiles.

Kind people are always easy to be treated kindly, not to mention the friendly cooperative relationship between the two parties.

In the following time, there was no joke between the two parties.The three quartermasters did it themselves, and directly drove Jian Ping and the two around the border farmland.

In a place like the border, there is really very little land that can grow things.It's not because the land can't grow anything, but because as long as it exceeds the protection range of the border army, no one dares to grow anything.

On the northwest border, the city wall is built against the mountains.The towering mountains on both sides just formed a natural barrier, blocking the barbarians from outside the Great Wall.

The walls of the northwest border city are very high, at least 30 meters.And it is very wide, the width of three meters looks a bit like the Great Wall that Jian Ping has seen before.

The nearly 1000-meter city wall connected the majestic mountains on both sides, forming the northwest frontier pass of the Great Xia Dynasty.Behind the city wall is where the border people live.

So this is a city, but it is very different from the inland cities.The four walls of the inland cities are all the same width, thickness, height, and length, but the outer wall is the tightest here.On the inner side, the project looks much simpler.The city wall is only about one foot thick, and it is only a dozen meters high in total.It is better to say that it is a fortification than a dividing point in a symbolic sense.

There is nothing wrong with such an approach, although no one wants to lose the battle, but when planning things, always plan for the worst.

If the entire city is built too perfectly, in case of defeat, if you want to capture it again, you will be looking for trouble for yourself.

But now this situation is doomed, Daxia soldiers can easily defend the barbarians outside the Great Wall.Even if the city is captured by the barbarians, it will not have much impact on the counterattack after the Great Xia Dynasty.

There are very few farmlands in Border City. The entire Border City has a population of nearly 5, and the farmland available for planting is only a few hundred acres.

Other places can also cultivate land, but no one dares to cultivate it.After all, although the mountains on both sides of the city are steep, they are not foolproof.

Two years ago, a group of barbarian soldiers came from the mountain on the right, burning, killing and looting all the way. If Peng Xiao's army hadn't discovered it early, I'm afraid that Jianjia Village, which is farther away, would have suffered.

It is precisely because of this that in the eyes of the people in Jianjia Village, the generals at the border are definitely their patron saints.

The farmland at the border is not within the defense range of the fortifications, and it is basically ruined.It was also from that time that the people at the border gate were frightened a lot less courageous.

Otherwise, based on what Jian Ping realized, the planting talents and hobbies deeply rooted in the bones of people of their race, if they don’t plant something when they have land, they will feel uncomfortable just looking at it.

However, it hasn't been long since the disaster, so lingering fears must naturally be excluded.

So in the past two years, the situation at the border has become worse and worse. Those who have some surplus food at home are better off, but most people do not have much surplus food at home.A few people with quick brains can still find ways to start a small business and resell some items.

But because of the life-and-death enmity between Da Xia and the Hu people, there are very few such people.All in all, in one sentence, the people at the border are really dying.

If it hadn't been for the help of the people in the military camp in the past two years, I am afraid that starvation would have happened at the border.

The carriage turned around in the field, and Jian Ping could almost see the land conditions here.And next, we have to look at the records about the climate here.

After all, farming is not something that can see results in a day or two.Soil is one thing, climate is another key point.

Fortunately, the situation here is not too bad, it can be regarded as the standard Xinjiang weather.Dry, hot, great for growing fruit.

Jian Ping touched his chin and looked around, writing and drawing on the paper. When he returned at night, there were hundreds of recording papers in Tian Wen's arms alone.

Seeing Jian Ping working so hard, the three quartermasters who followed him all day didn't feel any dissatisfaction, instead they all smiled brightly.

Looking at the big producer that General Bai said, I always feel that I have seen the grain in the next spring when the harvest is over.
