Chapter 169: Captured

"Dad, I want to be a militiaman!"

Zhu Wuliu held a hoe in his hand, and his face was excited. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"You are a coward, be a fart militiaman, and your father and I will go to the house."

In a courtyard in Zhujia Village, Zhu Wuliu was protesting to his father, and yesterday's newspaper reported that each village should organize a militia of 100 people to be responsible for patrolling, maintaining law and order, and arresting barbarians.

It is also said that the militia will be provided with special clothing in the future.

"Why, I also want to catch the fine work of the barbarians, these **** dare to harm our His Royal Highness the King of Qi, I want to smash his skull with a hoe." Zhu Wuliu said.

"Why, just because I'm your father, because I'm the squad leader, this squad has to listen to me, get out." Zhu Da glared at Zhu Wuliu fiercely.

At this time, Zhu Wuliu's mother came over and said: "Your father is right, when you marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a baby, your father and I don't care what you do, now you are honest at home, and tomorrow you will go to the threshing floor to break wheat." ”

Zhu Wuliu squatted down with a decadent face, "Then you hurry up and marry me a daughter-in-law." ”

"I'll give you a dowry when I sell some wheat." Zhu Wuliu's mother said with a smile, and then he asked her husband, "Does this government really harvest wheat this year?" How much is a stone? ”

"This is still false, when the captain of the village went to the government office, the county magistrate said that now the government of the six states buys grain, fifty wen and one stone."

"So expensive?" Zhu grinned.

Zhu Da is also satisfied, his family's fifty acres of land, the harvest of one hundred and fifty stones is no problem, leaving twenty stones, and the remaining one hundred and thirty stones of grain to sell, which is more than six taels of silver.

There is still a season this year, and more than a dozen taels of silver a year have not run, thinking of this, Zhu Dameng will wake up with a smile, when will he have so much silver in his hand.

"But the government also said that if the purchase is enough, it won't be collected, so hurry up and beat the wheat." Zhu Da explained.

With that, he walked out.

Since the peasant community came out, the village is gradually not accepted by the villagers, and no one listens to what they say, on the contrary, the peasant commune has gradually become a place for the village to speak, and a dozen or so captains of each village decide the affairs of the whole village.

Now that the order in the newspaper has arrived, he has to go to the farm with the other captains to discuss how to implement it.

Many people in the village have worked long hours for the Hao clan in the past, and now they have their own land, and now they have a good life in the future, and they are even more grateful to His Royal Highness King Qi, so the decree in this newspaper never dares to delay.

Now he's going to talk about the militia.

Someone assassinated the King of Qi, which is a big deal for them, and they are really afraid that if the King of Qi has an accident and changes to a vassal king in the future, their life may return to the past.

So after the reporter finished reading the newspaper in the village, the people in the village were furious, and every household urged the peasant community to organize the militia as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the captains of their squads will be replaced, so that those who are capable will be replaced.

"Think beautifully, I, Zhu Da, am capable." While thinking, Zhu Da walked towards the farmer's house.

At the same time, the fiery militia decree spread like a spring breeze to prefectures and counties outside Qingzhou, and militias from various villages gradually appeared on the roads around the villages.

They maintained law and order in the village, interrogated suspicious passers-by, and wherever there were people, the militia could be seen patrolling with all kinds of farm tools, and anyone with suspicious behavior would be taken to the government by the militia......

In a mountain forest in Yizhou.

Dozens of figures weaved through the trees, tired and muddy, their clothes scraped and tattered by the branches.

Qin Chuanyun glanced at the wound on his arm, which had not been treated for a long time, and the wound had already suppurated.

Having hatched a conspiracy against Xiao Ming, he immediately fled south along the Tuojiang River by boat, trying to leave the fiefdom of the King of Qi.

But King Qi was faster than him, and soon there was an additional checkpoint along the wharf of the Tuojiang River to strictly check the ships coming and going.

As a last resort, they had no choice but to abandon the boat and take the path.

But it didn't take long for the country roads to soon become more patrolling.

These people questioned the merchants who passed by, examined the arms of every passer-by, and they had to burrow into the mountains and forests.

After a month of this, the rations they had brought with them had been eaten, so the people were very tired.

"Dad, I can't walk." Qin Mu sat down suddenly.

He was already a scholar, and his physical strength was not as good as Qin Chuanyun's.

Qin Chuanyun looked at his seventy-year-old mother, his wife and his own brothers, all of whom looked tired.

For the first time, he felt regret, and the impulse of the moment completely ruined him.

King Qi is not dead, and this strange method can only be used by him.

"We can't stop, we can't get caught, none of us can run." Qin Chuanyun roared, and this voice came from the woods, alarming a group of flying birds.

Outside the woods a shepherd boy was dozing off, and when he heard the sound he looked back, and ran away, shouting as he ran, "Daddy, there are people in the woods." ”

When the man who was catching fish by the river heard this, he was clever and did not want the oxen, so he ran to the village with the shepherd boy.

He was going to inform the militia that there were suspicious people here.

Qin Chuanyun was shocked, the shepherd boy was sleeping in the shade under the bushes, and he didn't notice it.

Qin Mu was also so frightened that he stood up from the ground, and the others were even more flustered.

"Run, run into the woods." Qin Chuanyun roared.

The others sank into the woods.

After a while, hundreds of villagers appeared in the woods, and one of the leaders asked the shepherd boy, "Are you sure that man has a wounded arm and is wearing silk?"

"That's right, hurry up, otherwise let other villages catch it, and this reward will be gone." The shepherd boy shouted.

The militiamen nodded, and hundreds of people scattered and chased after the woods, these people were in good health, often digging into the forest to climb mountains, and their physical strength was much stronger than Qin Chuanyun, who was rich and noble on weekdays.

Among them, there were also hunters who were proficient in pursuit, and soon Qin Chuanyun and his party were discovered by the militia.

Hundreds of villagers quickened their pace and surrounded Qin Chuanyun......

In Qingzhou City, Wang Xuan returned from the grassland and brought an important news at the same time.

"The Huyantuo Department has moved towards Cangzhou City?"

Xiao Ming asked, the last explosion only caused him a little flesh wound, but it didn't matter, in the past month, he has been urging the Equipment Department and Lu Tong to be busy with the formation of the militia, the harvesting of wheat, and the strict investigation and meticulous work.

Now another batch of sixteen artillery pieces has been completed and has been transported to Cangzhou City, along with fifty catapults and two thousand gunpowder canisters.

This is already in full production.

Wang Xuan's face was dark, obviously he had suffered a lot of trouble these days, and he said: "This Huyantuo Department is likely to try to attack Cangzhou City. ”

Xiao Ming nodded, the barbarian attack was imminent, and it was time to go to Cangzhou City.

While the two were talking, Pang Yukun suddenly walked in laughing, and he said, "Congratulations, Your Highness, that old thing Qin Chuanyun has been caught." ”
