On April 20 of the first year of the real dragon, the locust flowers everywhere on the Hebei Plain began to bloom one after another, and the strings of white locust flowers were dotted with branches, and the air was filled with a faint and elegant fragrance, which was refreshing. The acacia flower is beautiful, and the stamen of the acacia flower is called acacia rice by the people, and it is a delicacy that can be used for cooking and rice. The slightly bitter taste is an indelible taste in the memory of the vast majority of northern people, especially for many elderly and middle-aged people, Huai rice is even a life-saving food when the green and yellow are not harvested every year, and the people's feelings for Huai rice are difficult to understand for many young children who have never been hungry in the Qin Domain.

In the Qin feudal system, the Chengxiang area where the prefecture and county are located is called the city, and the villages and tunji with a population of more than 50,000 are called towns; Villages with a population of less than 50,000 are called townships. Townships and townships are subordinate to counties. Baima Town, Yizhou County, Hebei Province, used to be a township, but after returning to Qin, the population increased significantly, and many people poured into Yiding from Chengde Town in the south, and Baima Township had a population of more than 50,000 and changed the township to a town. Below Qinfan County, there are also township-level township offices and township offices, and their chief township head or town mayor is a Zhengjiupin official, a real sesame petty official.

This year's weather is good, when the white locust flowers begin to bloom, and the wheat on the plains outside the emerging White Horse Town also begins to turn golden. On the streets of Zhenbao in Baima Town, the first mayor of Baima Town, after the township was withdrawn and established as a town, Zhen Ji Ji was wearing a light green round-necked official robe, wearing a black gauze hat with folded wings on his head, and the embroidered pattern of small flowers with a diameter of one inch and the light green official robe on the official robe all showed that the mayor of Zhen Ji was not ordinary from the ordinary town mayor.

The dark green official robe and the embroidery of small flowers with a diameter of one inch are not worn by the ninth rank official, which is the unique mark of the sixth rank official. Among the Qin Domain, especially after the reform of the official system in recent years. The hierarchy is very strict. The size color of the officer's uniform. There are strict rules. Purple above the third grade; Four products. Deep Crimson; Five-pin, shallow crimson; Six-pin, dark green; Seven pins, light green; Eight pins, dark blue; Nine pins, light green. Floral ornaments of the clothing: embroidered patterns above three grades: one product, with a diameter of five inches; two products, two inches in diameter; Three products. Scattered flowers without branches and leaves. Four to seven embroidery patterns, all of which are small flowers with a diameter of one inch; Eight to nine grades have no embroidery pattern.

Zhen Ji Ji is indeed a seven-grade mayor, and he is also a seven-grade mayor, a mayor who is higher than some small counties. This is because Baima Town is an important township, from Tianjin to Yizhou, and then through Puyin and Feihu Ercheng through Taihang, connecting Wei and Dai, and reaching Yanmen, the important Jinyan National Highway of the Qin Domain, passes through Baima Town. As an important fulcrum on the main road of Jinyan, especially the east exit of the flying fox of Taihang Mountain and Puyin Ercheng. The town of Whitehorse is becoming more and more important.

This new town, with a population of nearly 100,000, was already a fort with a military fortress. The town is garrisoned by a battalion of the city's garrison. Although the mayor of Whitehorse does not hold the position of garrison, the town of Whitehorse has a militia battalion of 500 people, and this militia battalion has a special commander, but the nature of the militia reserve makes the mayor not directly manage the militia battalion, but is the supreme commander of the militia battalion.

He returned to his hometown at the beginning of the year when he was disarmed, although he fought very hard and fought very bravely after returning to the battlefield in the past few years. However, he already had a handicap, and in the past few years, he has left several new injuries on the battlefield, and one leg is also a little lame. In addition, he is a Shatuo person, and a large number of soldiers in the army have been withdrawn, and there is an order to only retain the proportion of two percent of the soldiers.

Fortunately, the battlefield performance has been good in the past few years, and he has really won a few tough battles with Yang Willy, plus Yang Willy is a dazzling new star who is highly valued by the above, so his subordinates have also been stained with a lot of light, and he has not been promoted less. When he left the army, he was already a lieutenant of Zhenwu from the sixth grade, and a mid-level officer of the battalion commander. Moreover, he also fished a medal of valor and a medal of eaglery, and was awarded the title of samurai before changing careers.

After returning to his hometown, he was demoted to use like other officers, from the Zhenwu lieutenant of the sixth grade, to the literary rank, and then changed to the court invitation lang on the seventh grade, which originally had to wear a light green official robe, wear a beam crown, and hold a bamboo wooden wat. However, the officers were transferred to the rank and given the treatment of retaining the dark green official robes.

The new official position arranged above for the chicken is the mayor of Baima Town, but it is awarded the rank of Zheng Qipin Chao Lang San, which is a low match. The official rank of the seventh product, serving as the official position of the positive servant. However, Baima Town is a big town, with a scale of 100,000 people, and there is even a regiment of garrison and a regiment of militia stationed in the town, guarding the Jinyan National Highway and the Taihang Ercheng Mountain Pass, which has an important position.

Although he took off his crisp and close-fitting military uniform, took off his steel helmet, took off his armor, and put on a soft green official robe, he was a little regretful about the black gauze official hat, but he was still very happy to be the mayor of a large town with more than 30,000 households and more than 140,000 people. The first thing Mayor Zhen did when he took office was to write a letter requesting that his name be changed to the name of the Han family. The Qin clan now has a large population, and according to the regulations, the Hu people have to shave their hair and change their Chinese names. Zhen Ji has always wanted to change his surname to Li, but such a "national surname" does not dare to change it privately. In the end, he still asked to change his name to Nie Lieji, and he was not embarrassed by his small request, and agreed directly.

Since changing his name, Nie Lieji feels that he is a little taller. With all these years of experience and cultural learning in the army, this Shatuo man has also managed Baima Town in an orderly manner, and he received excellent praise in the state assessment in the first quarter of this year.

Seeing that the summer harvest was about to begin, Nie Lieji rode back to his home in the countryside on a war horse that had followed him for several years and had been born and died together. He was wearing a soft and sweat-absorbing cotton robe, with a silver belt around his waist, and his hands shaking the reins.

The summer harvest is imminent, and the militia in the town are also returning home to prepare for the summer harvest. There are many militias in Whitehorse Town, far more than five hundred people in one battalion. In fact, of the nearly 150,000 people in White Horse Town, half of the total number of young and middle-aged people are registered militiamen. However, the militia is also different, and the five hundred militia in Whitehorse Town belong to the standing militia. There are at least three months of training in a year. The rest of the militia is a reserve militia. The total training time of a year is only half a month.

However, the summer harvest season is approaching, and even if it is a standing militia, as long as it is not wartime, it must be disbanded and return to the countryside to help harvest grain. This can't be delayed, although Nie Lieji is now the mayor of the town, he still has land in the countryside. It was given to him by the official at the beginning, and when he changed jobs, the official gave him another piece of land. As the county magistrate, he has another job field, a Xun field, and Yongye Tian, Nie Lieji is now a local tyrant and a small landlord. Coupled with the land he bought, the total land of his family has reached 30 hectares, 3,000 acres of land, although the vocational field and open field have to be returned after resignation and death, but the remaining Yongye field still has more than 2,000 acres.

Even if the current system of the Qin Domain. The field endowment is apportioned into the mu, and in addition to the prescribed limit of the number of acres per person. If you buy land again, you have to pay a very high transaction tax, but Nie Lieji, who is already completely the same as the Han people, cares about these lands very much, even if he pays heavy taxes, he also buys 3,000 acres of land. This is a land of heirlooms, many demobilized officers take rewards and transfer fees to set up factories, open mines, buy ships, buy shops, and even buy bonds, deposit interest, etc., but Nie Lieqi finally chose to buy land. Although many people have discouraged their plans to buy land because of the expansion of the border and the high land transaction tax, this cannot stop Nie Lieji.

Riding a horse on the wide two-way six-lane Jinyan Avenue, Nie Lieji became more and more in love with this land.

He was followed by eight young and strong men, which made Nie Lieji look more and more like a feeling of hugging each other, although King Qin didn't like the pomp and circumstance of officials, the old system of pomp and circumstance of many officials had been changed, and the pomp and circumstance such as gongs and signs to open the way had been greatly reduced, and a small town mayor like him did not dare to do it. But Nie Lieji still has eight subordinates, not that he likes to fight with his superiors. Rather, these people were actually his servants, his contract servants to be exact.

As early as a few years ago, the king of Qin issued an order to cancel all slaves in the territory and restore their freedom. Although there was some price to be paid for the restoration of this free body, such as joining the army or going to pioneer outside the border, it still made countless slaves grateful. According to the order of the King of Qin, the existence of slavery was not allowed, only hiring.

Nie Lieji has 3,000 acres of land, and he is a seven-grade mayor, and he can be regarded as an official tyrant. Although he could not buy slaves, he did employ quite a few servants. Now it is difficult for the Tang people to be hired, as long as they are willing to leave their homeland, they can get a large piece of land of their own outside the Guan. Nie Lieji hired all Kunlun slaves from the South Seas in recent years. The imperial court turned a blind eye to the obvious human trafficking of maritime merchants, only imposed heavy taxes, and then strictly regulated the entry of blacks, prohibiting the slave trade.

As long as it is a black person who enters the country, it is a free people. They must first hand it over to the government, and the government will consult them, and as long as they are willing to go to the customs to reclaim the wasteland, they can immediately obtain free status, and they can also get a share of the land, etc. And if they don't want to go to Kanwai, then they are also free people, but they can't get land, etc. Most of these Kunlun slaves, who were reluctant to go to the Guanwai, eventually became wage laborers, working in the mines, workshops and merchant ships of the wealthy families, or in the mines, workshops and merchant ships of the new merchants, or in the farms of the landlords and tyrants.

Nie Lieji's family has 3,000 acres of land, but their husband and wife have long stopped cultivating it themselves. Nie Lieji employed about 100 men, women, and children, and in addition to his house in the city and the manor in the country, he also had two small farms in the countryside. Most of the families he hired, young and vigorous to cultivate the fields, and the old ones to take care of the home. The older women take care of the children and cook and grow vegetables, while the younger ones are scouts and laundry and weaving. Young girls are made maids, and young people are made long-term scholars. In this way, it seems that many people are employed, but in fact, the employment fee is not high, and the servants are more at ease.

The eight mercenaries were all very strong, and they drove two carts loaded with coal bought from the town, as well as a number of general stores. Nie Lieji is a person with a very lively brain, or a very calculating person. Although he has become the mayor of the town, he does not miss the opportunity to make money like an old man. In recent years, Yi County has prospered, and the countryside has become equally rich. Nie Lieji opened a grocery store in the countryside and a briquette shop. Honeycomb coal is specially made and sold to people in nearby villages. Although he was the mayor of the town, he didn't care in the slightest. In the Qin Domain for many years, he was very smart and would not do anything about corruption. But he won't miss it if he makes money. Anyway, the red line for officials not to do business is that officials with grades five or higher are not allowed to participate in business. But he's the mayor of Qipin. But you don't have to worry about that. In recent years, the prosperity of the Qin Domain's commerce has also greatly improved the status of merchants, and he is a town mayor who runs a small workshop and small shops, and no one looks at him differently.

Kunlun Nu, who has the same skin as black paint, drove two large carts of coal with the same black paint on the warm breeze on the avenue.

These Nanyang black men walked and chatted with the skilled Tang Yun official dialect, some talked and laughed, and Nie Lieji also talked and laughed with them from time to time, and the relationship between the main and the maid was very harmonious. Nie Lieji is a very open person. He knows very well that in today's Qin Domain, these people are his hired workers today, but one day they may be transformed into an officer or a local official, or even a big businessman, there are too many such things. Wasn't he a prisoner of war who came north from generation to generation a few years ago? But now, he has his own farm here, a wife and children. He also became a civil governor of more than 100,000 people, and he was still a low-level nobleman with the title of samurai. Can such a thing be imagined in the past?

Nie Lieji is smart, the Qin Domain has no slaves, these people are just hired workers. They are free people, no longer untouchables, and no one can say what tomorrow will hold for everyone. The relationship with the workers is better, benevolent and generous, and the rewards are also very rich, and he still calculates this account very clearly.

"Lao Hei, when will our wheat start to be harvested?" Nie Lieji asked one of the old black men on his horse.

The man is actually not old, he is only over forty years old, but his black appearance always looks a little old. This Lao Tzu is a Champa man, he was sold to the Central Plains more than ten years ago, and he used to be a farm slave of the lord of Champa, and what he was best at was planting Champa rice, which was a veteran. After staying in the Central Plains for more than ten years, he has now become an authentic northern farmer, and he is also very proficient in the cultivation of crops such as wheat and beans. Nie Lieji's family's 3,000 acres of land are all wheat, and Lao Hei is at the helm.

In Mayday, Lao Hei was naked, revealing his dark skin that was shiny and reflective, showing a strong body. He wore only a pair of sackcloth beach pants, and a pair of large bare feet snapped on the flat road. Like his master Nie Lieji, he also shaved his head, a little different is that Nie Lieji kept a pot lid that is most common in the army, while Lao Hei was shaved with a shiny shave. As he strode along, he followed the side of the carriage, and at the same time he held a smoking gun in his hand, and from time to time he took a puff, swallowing the clouds and spitting out the smoke, and the tobacco prepared with honeysuckle, mint and tea burned in the smoke pot, turning into a refreshing and refreshing smell that swirled in his throat and refreshed the spleen.

He took two puffs of cigarette, then looked up at the sky, and slowly replied: "Well, I chose a day, the eighth day of the fifth month to worship the gods, and then open the sickle to harvest wheat, this day is a good day, the owner thinks it's okay." ”

"The eighth day of May, well, good day. On this day, when the time comes, I will kill the two fat pigs in the pigsty, slaughter a few sheep, and then catch some fish in the fisherman, and buy some beef in the town, and everyone will work hard, and I will not treat everyone badly. Nie Lieji said with a generous wave of his hand.

This generous gesture immediately won the cheers of the eight strong men, slaughtering pigs, sheep and fish, as well as beef, and this wheat harvest season will be happy. The owner is so generous, everyone will definitely work hard. When I returned home, my wife had already greeted me at the door with her son.

Looking at his son who was waiting for him to hold the book in the poem, Nie Lieji couldn't help but be very happy. jumped off the horse and stroked his son's head, "Study hard and come back with a top prize in the future." If my father hadn't read less, how could he have changed jobs and returned to his hometown. Hey, if you don't change jobs and return to your hometown, in a few years, your father and I will definitely be able to wear a golden bean on our shoulders, and I will have to earn a baron or something. ”

The wife wore a long-sleeved robe with a pair of sleeves on the outside of the skirt, and smiled slightly at her husband, "Tang'er has worked very hard, so don't put pressure on the child anymore." In fact, Shi is very satisfied with her current life, and her husband can change jobs and return to work, she actually doesn't know how happy Lu Dao is. When she was out fighting, she was always scared, for fear that something would happen. It's like now, although her husband is demoted and re-appointed, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore. Guarding her husband and children, raising her husband and children, and having such a good family business, she often wakes up with a smile in her dreams in such a life.

"Hey, my biggest wish is to hope that Tang'er will be born. It's all useless to blame Dad. Otherwise. Tang'er is so smart. If I can enter the Spartan training camp and be with the princes and the sons of each family, I will definitely have a bright future in the future. Nie Lieji sighed a little. Although the son is smart, after all, the Spartan training camp is a place where everyone wants to squeeze their heads to send their children to, although he Nie Lieji has a smart son, his level is still too low.

Nie Lieji handed over the horse to Lao Hei's son and took it away, turned his head to Shi and said, "Just now Lao Hei said that the eighth day of the next lunar month is a good day, and choose that day to start the sickle." ”

"Hmm. We women are ready, and we will go down to the ground together that day. "The wheat harvest is a major event, and the men cut the wheat, and the women have to go down to the fields to bundle the wheat, in addition to cooking and delivering food and water. At this time of the year, not to mention ordinary farmers and peasant women, even landlords, landlords, wives, emperors and queens, they will also go to the field together to cut wheat and glean ears.

Nie Lieji looked at his tiger-headed son. "Let Tang'er go down to the ground with us."

"You're not afraid of delaying his studies."

"Every summer harvest and autumn harvest, even the King of Qin and the princesses of Qin have to go to the ground in person. It's a big day. Tang'er usually reads more, but he can't forget his duty. ”

Shi nodded, with a smile on his face: "This year's wheat is gratifying, the wheat ears are sinking in the middle of the decade, I heard Lao Hei say that the yield per mu can be three stones, but it is amazing, in the past, when I was in Daibei, the family's land yielded at most one stone per mu." ”

The yield per mu is three stones, and the Nie Tuhao's family has 3,000 acres of land, which is 9,000 acres of wheat. Even if the grain is shelled and subtracted, you can get more than 6,000 stone wheat after the most. The thought of so much food made the whole family overjoyed.

"This is all the guidance of the agricultural technicians sent above, I really didn't think about it before, it turns out that there are so many ways to pay attention to farming. You see, they didn't do anything, they just covered the ground with the silt in the fishing pond, and scattered the usual livestock manure in the ground, plus the rotten grass leaves and other things and sprinkled them with plant ash. ”

"It's good to have more, you have to accumulate more fertilizer in the future, this cow dung, sheep dung and horse manure can't be wasted, and everything that is pulled outside must be picked up and composted." Nie Lieji didn't look like an official at all, but talked seriously like an old man.

Lao Hei on the side came over at this time and interjected: "Master, I wonder if we have wrapped up the feces from those public toilets in the town?" Although it costs a little money, there are a lot of public toilets in the town, and if you have to wrap up all this dung and transport it back, there will be three stones per mu of land in the future, only more than miles. ”

Nie Lieji waved his hand and said proudly: "Bags, it's all packed, ask others what the price is, let's pay a little more than them." ”

"There is also a post station on the Najin Yan Road, there is one every twenty miles, we can also pack it."

"yes, yes."

"We have a carriage in the village, I think we can also send a few carriages to the city every day to collect night incense, although it has to be collected by a family, but there are tens of thousands of households in the town, this has to be put away, it is not less than the public toilet, and it is completely free of money."

Nie Lieji thought of the manure of more than 100,000 people, and immediately became full of pride, "Well, harvest, all of them have been collected, and when there is nothing to do, the family's carriage will be pulled to the town to collect fertilizer." By the way, we can't take it in vain, otherwise, people may not give it to us. In this way, when you go to harvest for the first time, bring some vegetables and fruits or something, and put some in each family. They ate our fruits and vegetables, and they were embarrassed not to pour the fertilizer on us? Eat people with soft mouths, take people with soft hands, and occasionally send them some melons and fruits in the future, this fat will definitely be ours. The more he talked, the more excited he became, because in this era, there was no chemical fertilizer for farming, and except for livestock manure, he mainly relied on manure. Although it doesn't sound good, it is not three or five buckets of land that is overpaid by one acre of land, but one or two stones, which is doubled!

"The grain station has already come to say hello, and after the summer harvest, they will come to collect the grain. He also said that this year, there is no need to send it to the town, and the grain station will go directly to the countryside to collect it. This year's grain prices have come out, and they are 200 yuan per stone. ”

This price is not high, and compared to the demand from the outside today, this food price is even frighteningly low. You must know that the price of grain in Chang'an is now basically more than 10,000 yuan per stone. In comparison, it is a hundred times that of the Qin Domain. However, although it was a little painful, Nie Lieji didn't say much. In the whole territory of the Qin Domain, the strength is the unified purchase and sale of grain, even if it is the landlord's family, the grain has to be sold to the grain station at the price of the government, and the grain they can leave behind is calculated, which is higher than the supply in the city, but it will not be too much. And wanting to sell a large amount of grain privately, this is a crime in the Qin Domain.

However, although the purchase price of the government is not high, the grain of the Qin Domain has always been at a parity price over the years. As for the purchase price, the sale price is based on the purchase price, too. However, Nie Lieji also knew the truth. Although the government does so. So that the landlords could not make food money. It was better than the forcible expropriation of other feudal towns, and although it could not make war profits, it also ensured that the farmers had enough profits. After all, as in the early years, when there was a grain shortage, the market price of grain was tens of thousands, but it was the grain merchants who made the money, and the price of the grain sold by the farmers was actually not high. Once the harvest has arrived. However, the grain merchants have severely suppressed the price, resulting in the price of two or three cents of rice, which makes the farmers lose more money in the more harvest years. The key is that the grain merchants hoarded grain, maliciously manipulated and squeezed grain prices, and finally fattened one grain merchant.

However, now Qin Fan's grain purchase plan has maintained a stable equilibrium for both grain farmers and the people who buy grain.

Shimai 200 Wen, this price is not high or low, Nie Lieji calculated, deducting various costs. In fact, I still made a lot of money. Three thousand acres of wheat can harvest nine thousand stone of wheat. Even if you remove the shell, there will be six or seven thousand stones. If you count the two seasons a year, as well as the output of fishing ponds, mountain forests, mulberry fields, and home textiles, as well as grocery stores, coal courts, and carpenter's workshops, on the whole, Nie Lieji is still very satisfied, even if it is not a daily income, it is based on a wide range of wealth every day.

The only thing that makes him regret is that he was transferred, if he wasn't slightly injured and disabled, how could he be discharged from the army. Think about that young boss Yang Willy, who is young, but now he has just been promoted to lieutenant colonel, two bars and three stars. There is no doubt that within ten years, it will be impossible to hang the golden bean. Now that he has changed jobs and returned to his career, he has lost his career, and what he thinks in his heart is that his son can be more productive than him, and that is enough.

Back in the house, Nie Lieji still went to the martial arts hall first, and there was a weapon rack in the hall, on which were eighteen kinds of weapons. Especially at the top, there are three wooden figures lined up, wearing three sets of armor. On the left is a set of phoenix-winged mountain armor, on the right is a set of horned helmet cowhide armor with a layer of chain armor on the outside, and in the middle is a set of navy blue tiger-style wolf helmet full-body armor.

In front of the three sets of armor, there was also a sword, on which lay a shiny samurai sword inlaid with gold and jade.

On both sides of the sword, there is a three-foot horse lance on the left, an eight-foot riding spear on the right, and a saber and a Mo knife are also provided next to it. In addition to these, there is also a lunge bow for riding. The shield is on three sides, with iron bones, a steel whip, a copper mace, a double-edged battle axe, and a one-handed axe.

This is simply a small arsenal, and at the same time, it is also Nie Lieji's entire collection, most of which are his used weapons. Most of them were standard ordnance that had been issued, and some of them were captured on the battlefield. The opening of the ban on military force in the Qin army, coupled with his status as a decorated officer, allowed him to take in these old fellows. Every time he goes home, he always has to wipe them carefully, these will be their heirlooms.

Carefully wiping every piece of armor on the mountain armor, the room was extremely quiet, and Shi Jingtang, who was tiger-headed, also sat next to Nie Lieji with a piece of cloth and wiped it, and the father and son were indescribably calm and peaceful.

At this moment, suddenly there was a neighing of horses outside, accompanied by the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, which sounded outside the house.

Nie Lieji, who was wiping his armor, bounced up like a spring like a conditioned reflex, Shi Jingtang looked at his father in surprise, his father was a stranger at this time, he didn't have the usual smile on his face and the shrewd appearance of Tu Laocai, but a kind of solemnity, sharp and straight up.

"Son, don't wipe it, it's the gallop and neighing of the war horse just now, come out with me to see what's going on."

Nie Lieji put down the armor in his hand, pulled his son and ran to the gate, as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a horse running from the village gate, the cavalryman was wearing a fiery red leather armor, and more importantly, he also had a fiery red flag on his back.

At this time, the big bell on the stone tower at the entrance of the village finally rang, and the people in the village ran out of their homes one after another and ran towards the big drying field in front of Nie Lieji's house.

Shi Jingtang was holding hands by his father and stood at the door, he raised his head and said, "Aya, plant a flag and ride a horse, ring the bell and blow the whistle, is it going to gather militia again?" ”

Nie Lieji's expression was solemn, he nodded and said, "Son, that's right, this is an order to assemble." This is the fifth militia assembly order this year, but I don't know if this time it is the same bluff as the previous four times, scaring the south, or if it is really going to start. ”

At this moment, there was another sound of horses' hooves, and a strong man in leather armor arrived with two large men in the same leather armor riding horses. When the man at the head saw Nie Lieji, he hurriedly jumped off the horse, took three steps and made two steps to catch up, snapping his heels. Raise your hand and salute: "Zhao Tai, the commander of the militia battalion of Baima Town, has seen the mayor!" ”

Nie Lieji skillfully returned the salute. "Are you going to assemble?"

Zhao Tai is also a veteran of the army. He once served as a battalion commander in the combat unit, and his official position was the same as Nie Lieji's, but he was missing a few medals, and he was not knighted, and his rank was slightly lower than Nie Lieji. After changing jobs, he was transferred to the standing militia battalion as the battalion commander, and the rank did not seem to have changed, but from the combat battalion to the militia battalion. But it was downgraded.

At this time, the thirty-six-year-old Zhao Tai looked excited and said excitedly: "It's a rally, a big move, this time it's a real big move." The order just handed down, Zhou Shuai has ordered to send troops to Chengde Town, and this time our standing militia in Hebei states will also go out with the army. ”

"We're going on a march too?" Nie Lieji looked surprised.

The Qin army is now strong and strong, and it has just cut off a million troops, why do you still need militia to go to the battlefield now?

At this time, the village chief had already followed the herald, and he also rode a horse, and the village chief was also a veteran. In his early fifties, although he was only the head of the team before he was discharged from the army. But in the army for many years, in the village, even in front of Nie Lieji, the mayor of the town, he still has some qualifications and prestige. At this time, the village chief shouted all the way on the horse: "Under the order of the King of Qin, the southern expedition to Chengde in May, the third marshal of Zhou Guo led the southern expedition, and the Hebei militia followed the army to rob the harvest of Chengde and Wei Bo's second rebellion town wheat."

The village chief excitedly announced the order, the task of the militia is to follow the army but to rob the wheat in the two towns of Hebei, and the king of Qin said that if he goes out with the army, the government will compensate each person with 100 wen per day, and at the same time, everyone will grab the wheat they have cut, and the army will buy it on the spot at the purchase price of 200 wen per stone. If the militia brings their own horses and donkeys, the government will also subsidize the foot money according to the city every day, and the car and horse will also subsidize the car and horse money

The place where the old village chief walked was boiling, and the militiamen in the village were shouting excitedly, "Go to the south, go to the south!" ”

"Militiamen who voluntarily go with them can bring their own armor, archers, and swordsmen, and come to the village office to sign up!" The village chief was still shouting there.

Many of the militia were former soldiers, some of them were in the war army, and some of them served in the township soldiers and unity soldiers. Now that he is retired at home, he heard that he was going to the front line, not only did no one panic, but he was full of excitement.

Nie Lieji stood at the gate, holding his son's hand in his hand, his face gradually turned red, his heart beat violently, and a long-lost blood rushed straight to his brain, and the blood in his whole body boiled.

"Go to the battlefield, go to the battlefield, and finally go to the battlefield again!" He whispered in his mouth, and his excitement was incomparable.

He suddenly glanced down at his son, "Son, dad is going to Zhengnan, and he will definitely earn you a place in the Spartan training camp!" ”

Zhao Tai also stood there, smiling silly.

Qin Fan's military merits are extremely heavy, and failing to obtain a lord has always been Zhao Tai's biggest regret, and now, his heart is finally excited again.

There are also many militiamen who also have the same idea as Nie Lieji and Zhao Tai, although it is very good to rob the grain of Chengde Weibo Second Town, but this is not the reason why they are most excited. What they were most excited about was that they got an unexpected opportunity to go to the battlefield with their own armor, horses, and swordsmen.

Wealth needs to be sought from the book, fame is only taken on the horse, the horse is on the field, and the marquis is looking for thousands of miles!

Returning home, Nie Lieji rushed directly to the martial arts hall, and as soon as he entered, he found that his wife Shi was already standing in the hall, taking off the navy blue tiger-style wolf helmet full body armor he wore when he obtained the samurai lord from the wooden frame.

"Lady!" Nie Lieji screamed unexpectedly.

Shi stared at Nie Lieji and forced a smile, "Husband, let the concubine wear armor as a husband." In the coming day, the concubine is still here to relieve her husband's robe! ”

"Lady, do you agree with me to go?"

Shi Shi smiled, what is the use of disagreeing. He had already seen the regret in his husband's heart after changing jobs, and this time he went out with the army, which was an official order and could not be disobeyed. At the same time, it is not a wish too far away, no matter what, although the wife does not want her husband to fight on the battlefield, she worries day and night. But at this time, what else could she do except support him wholeheartedly and let him go on the expedition without worry.

"The concubine is at home waiting for her husband to triumph!"

"Hmm!" Nie Lieji nodded.

"Go early and come back early, be safe!"

"Hmm." Nie Lieji nodded again, and his heart felt warm. (To be continued......)
