If it is a grange village in Huai'an North District, then there is a complete earthen fence outside, and there is a deep enough trench, once something happens, everyone can retreat to defend it, but now the defense of ordinary villages in Huai'an North District has also begun to relax, because it is completely the territory of Zhao Ziying, and there are heavy troops stationed there, so there is no need to worry about bandits attacking.

If you don't have to worry too much about those granges in Yizhou, although the Tian family can't be as complete as the Zhao Ziying, the thieves in the southeast of Lu are rampant, and the Zhuangzi villages everywhere have always been high walls and deep ditches, be careful and vigilant, and the small bandits dare not go deep to provoke.

But Yao Qi's location is different, compared to the Shandong refugees back then, the Liaodong refugees are not so duty, so the grange for the resettlement of the Liao people will be relatively remote, and the site selection does not require any complete facilities, anyway, the Liao people will be built in the past.

The second and third batches of Liao people arrived to settle the village Zhuangzi, are the mountainside flat land between the two rivers of Mengshui and Yishui, although it is said that it is the territory of Qingzhou Prefecture, but because of the terrain division, these granges are actually equal to the lonely land, the west of Mengyin County is in the Yimeng Mountains, the state town and the county seat of Juzhou and Yishui County are separated from the north and east, and the junction of the two counties of this state is this area.

This area happens to be the farthest point from the three cities of one state, two counties, and even farther south of Yizhou, and the nearest town is Gegoudian, a small town formed purely because of the parking of large car dealers.

It is far away from the county seat of Zhou, that is, far away from the local villages, and it is difficult for the Liao people in the grange to escape, and it may take some effort to transport supplies in advance, but it can be exchanged for a long-term stability, and the abandoned fields can be reclaimed.

You must know that there are many rivers in this area, as long as you dig ditches to divert water for irrigation, you can become irrigated land, and the output will definitely not be less, although the director of Caoyun's Guan Quan is responsible for strictly prohibiting digging ditches and drilling wells around the rivers that supplement the canal, but how dare they take care of the affairs of Zhao Ziying.

It's just that this qiē plan is based on the premise that there is peace and tranquility in these areas, and no one dares to trouble Zhao Ziying.

In fact, this premise is the least need to be considered, Zhao Ziying's defeat of the official army in Shandong, the pacification of the chaos caused by the Wenxiang Sect, and the unexplained tragedy of the Lu Domain can also be vaguely related, not to mention the first brigade that was placed in Yanzhou Mansion to shock the Quartet.

On the ground in Shandong, whether it is the official errand service, the gentry or the green forests of the rivers and lakes, they all know that Zhao Ziying can't be provoked, you have the ability to splash the sky, can you still be stronger than the smell of incense sect leader Xu Hongru, but such a person, set off a chaos of hundreds of thousands of people, Xuzhou soldiers and horses dispatched, immediately boiling soup and pouring snow, instantly melted and killed, not to mention, Zhao Ziying acted straightforwardly, once offended, whether you are an official or military bandit, directly with Mount Tai to the top of the momentum, completely crushed.

Therefore, all the forces in Shandong are trembling, since they can't afford to offend, they can't afford it, so they can afford it, but fortunately, they are quite reasonable in this Zhao Ziying, and they never make trouble without incident.

Even the officials and gentry are cowering and restraining their hands, this horse thief and bandits are all miscellaneous armed forces that cannot be put on the table, and they have no courage to provoke and offend, but no one expected that in this remote place in the Yimeng Mountains, there are bandits who dare to take the initiative to harass Zhao Ziying's grange.

Anyone who understands the development of Zhao Ziying will be stunned by this matter, could it be that the thieves near Yishui and Mengshui are too remote so they have no knowledge? That's why you came to provoke Zhao Ziying's Zhuangzi? Is this because you think you have lived a long life?

After Yao Qi's Zhuangtou, the steward and the Tuanlian Lian of the Grange got together to discuss, they decided to act according to the rules, on the one hand, they were on strict guard in the Zhuangzi, and on the other hand, they sent two messengers, on the one hand, to Yunshan Xing in Yizhou to report for help, and on the other hand, to contact Lianbao with other nearby Granges.

But these responses still mean to be prepared, everyone just thinks that someone is dizzy, and it may not even be a bandit or horse thief, but it just happens to be too close.

The messenger to Yizhou also had to travel for two days on horseback, and the messenger to the neighboring grange returned the next afternoon, and the one closest to Yao Qi's grange did not encounter a nuisance of suspected bandits, but another Zhuangzi to the northeast of that Zhuangzi encountered a similar situation.

What the hell is going on? The reason is not difficult to come up with, if the other party is intentional, then it is a deliberate choice of target, at least the three nearby Zhuangzi are in a dilemma, the Zhuangzi in the center must be vigilant, to protect himself, and then support any Zhuangzi to give up the other, and then it also brings the danger of making himself empty and being attacked.

The possibility that the other party is premeditated is getting bigger and bigger, but the support can't come within at least three days, and the only thing that can be done is to strengthen the vigilance.

If it is a grange that Zhao Ziying has been running for a year or even several years, the power that can be used is not only group training, but also the young and strong households can also be organized, and in this agricultural reclamation grange at the intersection of Mengshui and Yishui, every qiē is a grass creation, and I thought that the Liao people would be resettled in the remoteness here, but at this time, the Liao people's minds were not very stable, and people's hearts had begun to be chaotic.

Yao Qi heard all kinds of rumors from everyone, he was the same as other Liao people who came here first, he couldn't bear the panic, and went to the night guard according to the arrangement in the Zhuangzi, Yao Qi did it very carefully, and now he has put a lot of effort into the crops in the field, and he is extremely looking forward to the harvest of the coming year, but he doesn't want to be harmed like this.

And those who fled first and came back were panicked, not only scared, but also said all kinds of appalling conjectures, what is this is the local people in Shandong look at this grange is not pleasing to the eye, so gather crowds to besiege, when the time comes, the village is broken, and the chickens and dogs are not left or anything.

The sensational rumors made people feel impetuous, and Yao Qi, who had always been honest, couldn't help but lose his temper, pointing at a Liaodong deserter who was foaming at the mouth and scolded: "You said that this side is so dangerous, why don't you run yet, haven't you run once?" Didn't you say you had what it takes? If you stay here and don't leave, you don't know that going out is a death! ”

The man who was angrily scolded by him became angry, and stood up to fight him, but the group training in the grange soon arrived, and after asking the reason, he directly beat the one who spread rumors with fifty sticks, and these fifty sticks did not spare the slightest hand, and directly beat the flesh and blood of the person, and did not want to stand up for more than ten days.

Although manpower should be cherished at a critical juncture, the rule of Zhao Ziying is to severely punish the treacherous evil that shakes people's hearts, and the absence of such a will not affect the overall situation, and it will also reduce the scourge of making trouble, and also give others a warning.

After this beating, the hearts of the people in the grange began to stabilize, and the stewards of the village kept cheering up the Liaodong and Shandong villagers in the village, saying that our Zhao Ziying's regimental training company can't do it with one hundred, but the bandits and thieves are not afraid to come to a hundred, and how many enemy spears can be poked to death.

At this time, although the people's hearts were stable, it was inevitable to be afraid, and they all felt that the bandits and horse thieves were about to attack in a big way, but they didn't expect to make so many preparations, and this day was actually safe, and there was no abnormality around the grange.

Could it be that those passers-by around Zhuangzi are not right, or know that this is the territory of Zhao Ziying, although this idea is too wishful thinking, but it cannot be said to be unreasonable, many people are relieved, but they dare not relax in the slightest in action, just hurry up.

The new grange is in short supply of all materials, these days do not dare to go out, the firewood and grass in the Zhuangzi are not enough, seeing that the weather is getting colder day by day, no firewood and grass is not good, since there is nothing abnormal on this day, just after noon, the Zhuangzi Zhuanghu men went out to cut firewood and grass under the protection of the group exercises.

The advantage of being close to the mountains is that there is no shortage of firewood and grass, and when the sun just sets, almost ten days of dosage has been made, at this juncture, there are the bloody fifty sticks a few days ago to teach a lesson, the farmers are working together, Yao Qi is also tired enough, come back and go to sleep in a hurry after dinner, according to Zhuangzi's arrangement, in the second half of the night to get up to keep vigil.

I was worried and nervous for a few days, and today I was a little relaxed, and then I went up the mountain to chop firewood and grass, my body was tired, and I slept very deeply, until I suddenly had a nightmare, and suddenly Yao Qi dreamed that when the Jianzhou Jurchen Tartars came over, in fact, the thousand households he served were because they ran fast, and the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses had not met at all, and they only saw the ferocity of the Tartars when they went to Phi Island, but in this dream Yao Qi seemed to have seen the scene where he was born in Tunbao was captured by the Jianzhou Jurchens, and the Tartars were killing people and setting fires, and some people shouted

At this time, Yao Qi was suddenly awakened, this shout was not in a dream, but in the Grange, he hurriedly rushed out of the shack, and found that a fire had broken out somewhere in the Grange, and everyone was burning, reflecting the sky of the Grange red.

Stunned for a moment, Yao Qi's sleepiness vanished, he felt a chill all over his body, and the whole person seemed to be frozen, the place where the fire caught fire was the granary, the granary where the grain and harvest were stored, and the food of the entire Grange was there.

When the fire was extinguished, the sky was already bright, the late autumn was dry, and the grain was flammable, once the fire started, it burned quickly, but the people on duty at night did not relax, and it was said that the fire had a smell of smoke wafting out, and they would definitely detect and react to warn and extinguish the fire.

But the fire was burned from inside the granary, and by the time everyone found out, the fire had already burned, and although it was extinguished in time after it was discovered, the grain had already been burned almost halfway.

The people's hearts that have just stabilized have begun to be chaotic again, and the messenger sent to Yizhou to ask for help and report the news will not be able to come back until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, and it will take longer to allocate food and the like, although the grain that has not been burned can last for a while, but no one knows whether it will continue to be burned, and this shows one thing, someone is indeed targeting the Grange, not a passerby, let alone a misunderstanding.
