Chapter 123: Shrink Food and Clothing, Relief for the Victims!

"Corn porridge, one bowl per person, everyone line up and come forward to receive it in turn!"

"Prime Minister is virtuous, gives food and clothing, millions of people in Hebei, and should be grateful to Dade!"

……………………

In the refugee camp on the outskirts of Yecheng, hundreds of large iron pots were erected, boiling thick corn porridge and fragrant large bread, and distributing them to the refugees, so as to ensure that everyone has a share and no one will go hungry!

The people came out to escape the famine, most of them carried pots and pans, no matter how bad there was a broken crockpot, but it saved a lot of things, after receiving the food, they were grateful to Dade, and then ate a lot of food, not a grain of rice, a mouthful of soup left!

The leader of the gang in charge of boiling porridge also repeatedly admonished the refugees to use rice porridge to moisten their stomachs first, and then eat large flour cakes, otherwise, their stomachs will not be able to stand it, and it will not be good to survive to death!

"Blizzard falls from the sky, the common people suffer, the rations are deducted, heaven does not tolerate it, who dares to be corrupt and pervert the law, the white blade will not be forgiven!"

Dian Wei was wearing iron armor, holding a ghost-headed broadsword, and led a team of soldiers to patrol back and forth to check whether the bread was heavy enough and whether it was made of pure grain...... Immediately beheaded on the spot, and the head was hung for public display!

This is the order of the great Sima, worried that some officials will be shoddy, use moldy grain, livestock feed, pretend to be good food for the hungry people to eat, or deliberately boil gruel, take the opportunity to embezzle grain, and then sell it at a good price, if you want to put an end to corruption, you must use thunderous means, this is to do 'chopsticks capture people's heads!' ’

Fortunately, the officials and soldiers who provided disaster relief all knew Da Sima's character - his heart was as hard as iron, and killing people was like cutting vegetables, so he obeyed the law one by one, and no one dared to be negligent, let alone embezzle food!

After they had eaten and drunk enough, the refugees were resettled according to their place of origin, the people of a county lived in a refugee camp, and the officials held pen and ink to register their names, ages, occupations, and ...... There are two benefits to this:

First, if the villagers live together, have the same customs and language, they will have a sense of security, people's hearts will be easy to stabilize, and there will be fewer things to do evil, after all, acquaintances are not easy to start!

Second, count the number of people affected by the disaster in each county, or arrange relief matters, and wait until the famine has passed, and then let them return to their homes and resume production as soon as possible!

In order to ensure that people do not freeze to death, Xiao Yi mobilized tens of thousands of horses to set up tents and bonfires in the open space for the refugees to keep warm!

Because the number of refugees was too large and the number of tents was not enough, Xiao Yat sent out a 'digging army' to dig a lot of 'ground manholes' in a sunny and leeward place, and spread thick straw in them to let the refugees live in!

The ground manhole is to dig a pit in the ground, one foot long, five feet wide, and six feet high, with the four corners of the log pillar base, and the top bracket is laid with straw, branches, and soil to form a semi-underground house!

The floor manhole is low cost, time-saving and labor-saving, and the warmth performance is also very good, which can resist the cold winter wind, and it is very suitable for resettlement of refugees.

In the camps, many latrines were dug and men and women were distinguished, so that they would not have to defecate in the open and make the camp filthy, and those who did not change their bad habits and went to the wrong hut were given ten lashes as punishment!

The advantage of this is that the literacy rate of the people of Hebei has been greatly improved, and all of them have become literate people, although most of them only recognize two words: male and female!

Once the habit is formed, it is difficult to change, since then, there is a habit in Hebei, that is, no matter how poor the family, but also dig two thatched houses, distinguish between men and women, if anyone goes to the wrong place, according to the rules, slap ten buttocks...... Ha ha!

In order to relieve the Hebei compatriots, the aboriginal residents of Yecheng donated a large number of clothes, regardless of the old and new, good or bad, big and small, thin and thick, as long as they can keep out the cold, and distribute them to the refugees!

Cao Cao, as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, should lead by example and personally issued an order: "In the year of the catastrophe, you should be thrifty, cut your own treatment, only use two meals a day, only two dishes per meal, and do not eat meat and fish, only eat vegetarian dishes and clear soup, and do not add meals at night!" ’

and he put together the gold and silver vessels, brocade bedding, and fox fur that he used...... All of them were donated, leaving only a thin quilt, a few changes of clothes, and the clothes that the prime minister must wear, which can be called the most shabby prime minister in the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years!

The prime minister set an example, and the civil and military ministers followed suit, and also donated their bedding and clothes to the refugees, especially Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang.

Whether it is a pretend gesture or inviting people's hearts, the father and son of the Cao family are diligent and thrifty, treat the people well, and lay a solid foundation for them to rule the four states of Hebei.

With food, tents, and clothing to keep the refugees safe, the refugees have finally settled down, and it's time to patrol the camps, deter the small and small, and further stabilize people's hearts!

…………………………………………………………………………

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, out on patrol, with vast magical powers, invincible in the world!"

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, out on patrol, with vast magical powers, invincible in the world!"

……………………

Xiao Yi usually goes out, always dressed lightly, does not wear gorgeous clothes, and does not talk about pomp, so that he is more comfortable, and he saves harassing the people!

This time it was completely different, in order to deter the small people and appease the hearts of the people in Hebei, a full set of honor guards of Da Sima was taken out, 30 drummers, 30 trombonists, and 30 flag bearers...... Hundreds of meters before and after the procession, flags fluttered, drums and trumpets sounded in unison, shouting high slogans, which can be described as majestic!

At the end of the team, there were hundreds of cavalrymen, holding a scimitar in one hand and a long pole in the other, with bloody human heads hanging on them, all of whom were thieves and adulterers, and who committed crimes.

Xiao Yi was also dressed up very sassy, taking out the posture of going into battle, wearing a Chiyou ghost helmet, wearing a cold iron armor with a claw pattern, holding a blood wave slashing sword, and riding a thousand miles of ink smoke horse...... Guarded by 500 personal soldiers, they hugged each other in front of the back, showing off their might, not to mention the small ones, even the evil ghosts can scare away!

It is a very dangerous thing to patrol among hundreds of thousands of refugees, in order to prevent the appearance of assassins, Xiao Yi deliberately put on python scale soft armor, soft and comfortable, as hard as steel, fifty steps away, can block bow and arrow shooting, Xiao Bin, Cao Xing held a sword, holding a shield, tightly guarding the left and right!

"Great Sima Shenwei is powerful! - Conquer everything, be invincible! ”

"Great Sima Bodhisattva's heart! - Relief to the people, the merit is immeasurable! ”

…………………………

Everywhere Xiao Yat's team went, the refugees were prostrate on the ground, worshipping at the top, as if they had seen a god, and the sound of cheers and gratitude resounded through the four fields!

Of course, in the infinite gratitude, there is also a deep fear, everyone knows in their hearts that this young man on horseback is the first killing god in the world, everywhere he goes, the corpses are piled up like mountains, blood flows like rivers, and the lives of people who die in his hands are probably more than the refugees here!

"This is the ghost-faced Xiao Lang, so majestic and domineering, just like the demon god descending to earth, if I can be a general under his account, it will be great!"

In the refugee camp, Hao Xuan knelt on his knees, raised a little white face on his side, and secretly looked at the figure, with infinite gratitude, admiration, and worship in his heart!

After leaving his hometown, Hao Xuan and his fellow villagers braved the wind and snow, climbed mountains and mountains, or did odd jobs for people along the way, or begged along the streets, endured countless hardships and crimes, and also had to avoid the attacks of bandits and grass bandits, and other homeless people.

The villagers who are lucky will be selected by the gate valves and the powerful to become the slaves and maids of others, although they have lost their personal freedom, they have a full bite to eat, and those who are unlucky will either die of cold and starvation, or die of disease...... When they arrived in Yecheng, there were only about 30 of the more than 100 villagers who came out to escape the famine!

The weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and there are countless refugees, just like locusts crossing the border, wild beasts, birds, grass roots, tree bark, Guanyin soil...... Everything that could be bitten and moved, swallowed into their stomachs, and when there was nothing left to eat, they searched everywhere for corpses and fed their hunger with the flesh of the dead!

Hao Xuan had seen with his own eyes that a weak refugee had just collapsed, and before he had completely lost his breath, he was eaten by a group of hungry people.

Therefore, on the way to escape, no matter how tired and hungry he was, he did not dare to fall down and rest, because once he fell, he could no longer stand up, and he would either become food for others or freeze to death!

Fortunately, I came to Yecheng, and with the relief of the government, I drank thick rice porridge, put on thick clothes, and lived in a cowhide tent, I felt so good to live!

While sighing, Hao Xuan noticed something unusual, there were a few strange men not far away, they were in tattered clothes, their faces were black, and they were carrying shabby burdens, but their eyes were bright, their complexions were ruddy, they didn't look like refugees at all, but their bodies were very strong!

A few people were sneaky, seemed to be very scared, and very excited, constantly approaching the patrol team, and using the surrounding refugees to cover their figures, and finally took out a pair of small yellow crossbows from the baggage, and aimed at Xiao Yi steadily......
