Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Ding Tian got up early the next morning, and his third aunt brought him egg porridge: "Eat more, Ding Mo is also going to the county seat today, just in time, he will drive the car, let him drive the car, and take you there."

The Ding family has a carriage. Although it is a very simple carriage with only one air-tight compartment, it is still a rarity in the village.

Ding Tian nailed a thin felt to the inside of the carriage, which now shields him from the wind. He sits in it without the need for cold wind

However, the road conditions in ancient times were worrying, and the car did not have an anti-vibration system, so it was very bumpy.

Almost knocked out his breakfast.

Ding Mo is the same generation as Ding Tian, ​​but he is older, and Ding Tian calls him Brother Mo.

Ding Mo was driving the carriage. He was going into the city to buy things, and usually he just carried the load, but with Ding Tian's carriage, it was much more convenient.

Ding's family has a six-year-old rough horse.

This is the horse Ding Dahai rode when he came back.

He has been raised at the third uncle's house. In the morning, the third uncle came to put him in a carriage.

With Ding Tian's small stature, he couldn't ride a horse, so he could only ride a carriage. Besides, the original owner didn't know how to ride a horse either.

Ding Mo drove the carriage and took Ding Tian to the county seat without any hindrance.

Ding Tian saw the ancient county town for the first time.

The county seat is very large, probably because of the county seat on the border, the city wall is very high, and there are wall stacks, parapets, observation larvae, etc.

It is very new, because the war destroyed the original city, the current city is newly built, and it looks very strong at first glance.

There are people guarding the gate of the city, soldiers.

Ding Mo knew them, greeted them and entered the city.

"Brother Mo, do you know each other?" Ding Tian asked Ding Mo.

"I know you, I'm familiar with you." Ding Mo smiled: "During the war, the village dispatched farmers to transport grain. I have been there several times and met them all. We don't know each other's names, but we have served in the army together." , nodding acquaintances, it’s just a convenience to go in and out every time. After the battle, except for some soldiers who had recovered and returned, and those who couldn’t go back, they built a barracks in the north of Xinxian County and stationed here side, and will take root here in the future. "

The barracks are arranged in the north, also to prevent the enemies in the north.

Although it is said that the war has ceased and the battle has been won, but if the opponent comes again, he must fight again.

"Oh." Ding Tian looked around.

I found out that this county town is really newly built. The streets in the city are well planned, there are houses, but there are few people.

This point has to talk about the layout of ancient towns again.

The terrain of this county is long. The seat of the county government is located in the center of the county and is protected by a wall. Due to the terrain, only two gates, the south and the north, are opened.

Every day, the south and north gates open at sunrise and close at sunset. The richer people live in towns and are protected by walls and officers and soldiers.

In addition, the county has five village chiefs and fifteen village chiefs, and three villages form one mile.

But after the war, the population dropped sharply, and some villages were completely in ruins, so now there are only three village chiefs and nine village chiefs.

The management and protection of these villages cannot be well protected, and all rely on self-government, so there is the term "village bravery". The middle-aged men in the village, holding weapons such as hunting forks, patrolled the village to protect their homes during times of war. .

At the same time, there is also a wall in the village, which is very high, more than two meters, which is a scenery that cannot be seen in rich places.

There will also be differences between villages. A slightly richer village will build an earthen wall to resist, and there will be stronger villagers responsible for night watch, but poorer villages can only rely on themselves. Their only shelter is their home. A fence outside the yard can only block some poultry, and sometimes livestock can get in, let alone people.

In this regard, Dingjia Village has done a very good job, so Li Chang Ding has a lot of face with the county magistrate. In addition, Dingjia Village is considered a big local village, and it is the wealthiest village in the county.
