Eight hundred and seventieth eight chapters old fox(1/2)
Qian Xiao's words made all the people stunned.
They held the cloth bags in their hands one by one. Could it be that the Yangzhou Army's adults wanted to repent and not let them take away the food.
"I said it a long time ago, these officials are not at ease with kindness!"
"Are you going to gather together to kill us?" One by one, a panic-loving voice sounded.
"Friends, you misunderstood, misunderstood!" Qian Xiao explained there.
"Friends, our Yangzhou army is confident and it is impossible to take back the sent food. But fellow villagers, we don't want these foods, but some people want them! Huang Jian and Jiang Hua, these two chaotic soldiers, we have not been able to eliminate them yet. If our Yangzhou army leaves, this will not help the villagers. So I hope that fellow villagers, you can hide the foods and grass in your homes! Don't be robbed again!" Qian Xiao shouted loudly there.
"What? Are you leaving?" When the people over there heard Qian Xiao's tone, they wanted to leave Yunnan.
"General Qian is leaving?" Gao Qiu on the other side was also stunned for a moment and was about to come forward to question. However, he joined the Yangzhou Army because Qian Xiao agreed to help him kill Huang Jian. However, he was stopped by Qian Xiao's personal guards. "Deputy General Gao, we took Yunnan City, how could he leave like this!"
"Huh?" Gao Qiu looked at the personal guard in confusion.
"Person Gao will know after watching!"
"General, you can't leave. What should we do if you leave!"
"Yes, what should we do if you leave! Huang Jian and Jiang Hua can come back at any time. If they come back, we will have no way to survive!"
Above the square, a noisy sound rang again.
Some people were worried and afraid that Huang Jian and Jiang Hua would fight back. They also complained that Yangzhou Army could not directly eliminate Jiang Hua and Huang Jian.
But it’s just a sentence that these ordinary people don’t want the Yangzhou army to leave.
"The people's hearts are available!" In another cleaned building, Jia Xu was watching Qian Xiao's performance on the square.
Zhang Jin stood aside and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Yes. Although our army defeated Huang Jian and Jiang Hua, it did not have enough troops to annihilate them, so we can only say sorry to the villagers! We will leave in a few days!" Qian Xiao looked sighing.
"No troops?"
"After our army defeated Zhao Wei and defeated Jiang Hua and Huang Jian, there were less than 10,000 troops in the army, and it was difficult to resist the attack of Huang Jian and Jiang Hua, not to mention that in the Jianning generation, there were Zhao Wei's remnants of Zhao Liang's soldiers!" Qian Xiao said to everyone.
Because of Huang Jian and Jiang Hua's evil deeds, these Yunnan people have long hated Zhao Wei and Zhao Liang together.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, right?
"General, don't leave! No one, we have it!"
"Yes, no one, we have it. We have no money, no food, but we have a life. If the general doesn't dislike you, I will follow you and work hard!" a man in high-end costume shouted.
"General. We want to follow you too!" The common people echoed each other.
"General, my son is eighteen years old this year, let him follow the general!"
"General. Our husband is twenty years old, so please accept it!"
These ordinary people are really afraid. They are afraid that Jiang Hua and Huang Jian will come back again. They finally get hope for life and do not want to lose him like this again.
Jia Xu's food and grass successfully made these people feel at ease with the Yangzhou army.
"Mr. Wenhe, you are really a talent!" Zhang Jin couldn't help but sigh in the house.
The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole behind him. After Jia Xu used Jiang Hua and Huang Jian as guns, he defeated the two of them all at once and seized their gains.
Those food and grass and gold were originally able to recruit soldiers and horses directly.
However, those soldiers did not recognize much from the Yangzhou army.
Because the people had no food to eat. They wanted to have a bite of food, so they joined the Yangzhou Army, so this was considered a negative substitution.
But now it’s different. The same batch of food and grass is used, and these food and grass are delivered to the people for free.
These ordinary people have hope of survival. In order to prevent this hope from being destroyed by Huang Jian and Jiang Hua’s comeback, they must protect them.
One is passive and the other is actively joining the army. This is a huge difference.
Jia Xu didn't say anything, but just smiled indifferently.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Friends, if the villagers are willing to join our Yangzhou Army, we will naturally welcome them. Similarly, we will not let the villagers send their children and husbands to the battlefield in vain! Look!"
As he said that, Qian Xiao asked his subordinates behind him to lift up several large boxes.
The people looked at Qian Xiao and didn't know what Qian Xiao was doing.
"Open them!" Qian Xiao took out stacks of paper from the box.
"That, is that land deed?" Someone leaned closer and seemed to see it at a glance.
"Brother Chen, have you read it wrong?" someone said in disbelief.
If Brother Chen might not be sure just now, but now he is so excited, he will be sure immediately. "It's not wrong, that's the land deed! I've seen our land deed a few months ago!"
This Chen Ge'er felt a little bitter when she talked about this past.
Their land deed belonged to their family just a few months ago. Later, because his mother got sick, she borrowed some money like those gentry members to see a doctor.
Originally, there were only a few hundred cigarettes, but later it became more and more, and in the end, I had to use the land deed to pay off the debt.
"That's right, these are all land deeds!" Qian Xiao confirmed what Brother Chen said.
What did this general take out the land deed? Everyone became more and more confused.
"Friends, as long as you join the Yangzhou Army, these land deeds are the settlement fee given to the villagers by my Yangzhou Army!" Qian Xiao shouted to everyone below.
"Every household, five acres of fertile land!" Qian Xiao said his bargaining chips.
"Wow" the whole scene was in full swing. This army can not only protect Yunnan, but also obtain fertile land.
Not only will this winter pass, but it may be able to survive next year and the next year.
"I want to join the army!"
"I'm the one!"
"I'll come too!"
"Don't worry, don't worry. If you want to join my Yangzhou army, you will go there to register!" Qian Xiao was also prepared, and there were already recruiting soldiers holding a desk. More than a dozen people next to him divided the work and cooperated.
"This general, are you really giving those land deeds?" Someone still hesitated.
"So, this guy. Do you really want to join my Yangzhou army?" Qian Xiao asked back.
"Yeah!" The man who asked the question nodded. He had originally planned to eat military rations.
"What's your name!? Where is the person!" Qian Xiao continued to ask.
"My name is Li Ergou! It's from Lijia Village!"
"Okay, register!" Qian Xiao asked the people over there to register.
"Come on, take this and wait there!" Qian Xiao stuffed a few pieces of paper into Li Ergou's hand.
"The land deed is really a land deed!" Li Ergou picked it up, and then he realized that it was really a land deed document.
"Li Ergou As long as you fill in your name on this blank land deed, the five acres of fertile land outside the city will belong to you!" Qian Xiao said to Li Ergou.
"I. I. I can't read!" said the common people who asked this question.
"Come on, please help Li Ergou write his name!" As he said that, someone came up there to help Li Ergou write his name on the blank land deed.
"I, I have land too? I have land too!" Li Ergou said that he had not reacted yet.
"Li Ergou, but I am ugly in front of me. If you enter my Yangzhou army, you will only be able to collect you if you pass the qualification. The five acres of fertile land are truly yours. If you can't pass it, we will not collect all of these five acres of fertile land. Leave two acres of land as your food!" Qian Xiao said in his words.
Jia Xu had already discussed that two acres of land would be enough for one person to eat and not starve to death.
"I will definitely enter!" Li Ergou said firmly.
"This general, how much is the tax? " Some people asked, "If these lands were given to them, the tax was high, what's the difference between it and no land.
Their rent is just this tax.
"I believe the head of the government should have known about my taxes in Yangzhou for a long time. All land is 30% tax!" Qian Xiao continued to promote.
Now everyone can't sit still.
"I want to join the army, I want to join the army!" They all rushed to fear being weaker than others.
This is still a good iron without nailing, and a good man is not a soldier? It is simply a reversal. If the troops in Yangzhou are successful, then it will be five acres of land. If it fails, then there will be one acre of fertile land.
"Slow down, slow down!" Qian Xiao wiped the sweat from his face and continued to speak.
"Our Yangzhou army also has requirements for collecting people!" Qian Xiao said to everyone.
Men. Between sixteen and thirty, those with disabilities should not be allowed. Literacy is preferred.
In this way, soon Qian Xiao handed out almost half of the fertile land in Yunnan City.
The number of people actually reached more than 40,000. And it was still growing. If it weren't for the sky that had become dim and people in many places around Yunnan wouldn't know, I'd probably not know how many people would have been.
...
Qian Xiao dragged his tired body to meet Jia Xu.
"Mr. Wenhe, this person is too many. Do we no longer recruit?!" Qian Xiao asked Jia Xu over there. Because Jia Xu said before, he only recruited 30,000 troops, and was afraid that Liu Zhang from Chengdu would worry too much.
"Why not to recruit?!" Jia Xu said secretly, "I said I only want 30,000 soldiers!"
