Volume 1 Chapter 139: Head's Dream
Imperial capital
A rare sunny day, under the sky dome, all things are spring, because it rained last night, the air is refreshing, Ye Qing is visiting the garden at this time, and his body is shocked, and he is refreshed from the depths of his soul.
When I came back to my senses, I took a deep breath, and it took a long time to spit it out, and I saw that in the dark, a trace of white qi poured in, and it was quickly absorbed by itself, and the overall luck rose a little.
Just do the math, and you know it in your heart.
"10,000 acres of land, the first harvest...... If luck is so easy to condense, the county wang family is more than 10,000 mu, and the children have been cultivated for many years, wouldn't my generation have no future?"
Ye Qing paced on the small bridge, watching the small bridge flowing for a long time, but he had a clear understanding: "The county wang family, for thousands of years, has a lot of luck, but the burden is also heavy, and the clan has things to cut, collect, and redistribute. ”
"Therefore, how many points is there for the specific implementation? How can it be compared to my lord of business, the burden is very small, the sovereignty is very large, not only enough for self-use, but also for the right and left."
"In the founding of the country, the population and economic aggregate were only two or three percent of the empire at the end of the period, but in terms of luck, they were far superior, which is the proof. ”
"Keeping a business is doing things, opening a business is doing things, and the same pay, the former is restrictive and half the result, and the latter is unique, and the blank paper painting is far from enough to describe ......"
"This luck is no longer floating luck, with this, I will cultivate to the first level of Virtue today" Ye Qing thought of this, but no longer hesitated.
The Five Emperors Dao Sutra is the heaviest luck, Ye Qing also had luck before, but he never cultivated it, and he couldn't penetrate the film a little, and later realized that this was due to Ye Qing's floating luck and no foundation.
Now the conditions are met.
Rushed to the secret room in the courtyard, closed the door, adjusted his sitting posture, and as soon as he settled down, as soon as he ran the Dao method, Ye Qing had a feeling that floated out.
"If it's a black de, the qi is robbed" Ye Qing's eyes changed, only to see a dark cloud appear in the sea, at the beginning, it was only the size of a palm, but it spread instantly, turning into a black cloud rolling, this black cloud is not a black de, but a gray and black calamity.
"The superior of this world is really the wisest I have ever seen. Ye Qing thought.
The so-called dragon qi is majestic and broad, ruling the earth, but the essence is deep hidden in life and death, ambushing millions of corpses, which dynasty is not the beginning of killing, which dynasty is not the essence of suppression?
Under the Blue Purple Throne, I don't know how many bones there are in the road.
Virtue and the past are one, and there is no opposite, but these five emperors are ingenious, according to the different Taoism and different levels taught, the test is to descend the calamity of different equal sins.
The reason is also above board, since you have entered the way of the five virtues and enjoyed the treatment of the five virtues, you have to bear the faults of the five virtues.
If a cultivator can kill, bear, and purify this sin, he will pass the test and achieve the power of the five virtues, but in this way, the five emperors will also have one less sin.
The emperor's position is entangled in karma and luck, and the five emperors can still sit on it and will not fall, and part of it depends on this "test"
"Come on" Ye Qing responded, and the next moment, I only heard a boom, and a flash of lightning flashed by, and the entire Zhihai sky was gloomy and cloudy, but it shifted to a certain place
"Lord, now that the chaotic people are gathering, and there are thieves fanning the flames, the situation is critical, please make a decision" Ye Qing turned his mind quietly, and a gloomy aura came, but a voice said at this time.
"Hmm, you go on, tell me about the situation again" Ye Qing remained silent, looked around, and saw that he was in a dock fort, I am afraid that this age has been a long time, and the battlements are a little dilapidated.
The person who spoke was a man of about fifty years old, so he was thin, dressed in white-washed clothes, only a pair of small eyes with a shrewd light, revealing shrewdness, and seemed to be a housekeeper, so he answered: "Yes"
I continued to talk about various situations.
Outside the window, the sky was covered with dark clouds, dead trees swayed in the cold wind, and farther away, layers of fog filled the air.
Suddenly, lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the trembling crowd below, followed by a muffled thunder and rain......
Ye Qing looked indifferently at the rain and people outside the window, but he could understand it.
"The catastrophe is transformed, the nature of the five virtues, this is a scene, and the space where the dragon sun is located is the same technique, presumably it is a test of basic virtue. ”
"This is Yejiawu Fort, there are 500 clansmen, more than 2,000 dependents, all of them are hungry and cold, and at this time, a catastrophe fell from the sky, the displaced people had nowhere to eat, and there were sporadic fires germinating, surrounded outside the dock fort. ”
Thinking of this, I felt my body and found that the martial arts were still there, and I couldn't help but sigh, and I understood in my heart.
The so-called way of the five virtues, the essence is order and rule, this scene is how to solve this dilemma, it can be killed single-handedly, it can be suppressed by organizing a large army, and it is also possible to show grace on the royal road.
I'm afraid that the results of the means are different, and the qi of the five virtues produced is also different, and the end is mysterious, seeing that the housekeeper is still talking, he waved his hand: "You don't have to say it." ”
"My Yejiawu Fort, how many soldiers do you have to fight?"
"Thirty people with knives are usually patrolled, and more than 100 people are temporarily pulled out, a total of 150 people. ”
"Where's the grain?"
"Stockpiled grain of 1,200 stones. ”
1,200 stones, which can only meet the rations of 4,000 people for one month, even if they only drink porridge to sustain their lives, they can only last for two months, Ye Qing calculated carefully, and then exhaled: "Spring is coming, how about winter wheat?"
"The nearby wheat fields are still undamaged, but they are afraid that they will be destroyed by the impact of the displaced people. ”
Ye Qing looked at this person's pale face, but he waved his hand impatiently: "If you harvest normally, how much grain can you get?"
"Coarse grain 7,000 stones. ”
Ye Qing calmed down when he heard this, paced a few steps, and said lightly: "You are too calm, this is not a big deal"
The housekeeper was startled, looking at the young family master, and didn't know how this came from.
Ye Qing smiled dumbly and said, "Whether it is difficult or not, it depends on the situation, the means, and the courage." ”
Speaking of this, his voice raised a little, and he was cold: "You immediately call my Ye family soldiers, ten people with one fire, five fires and one armor, my Ye family army will become independent into a first-class army, I will personally lead the team to serve as the first commander, and the fire commander will be served by the original patrolman." ”
"There are also twenty-five patrols and fifty clansmen, the fire captain is served by the original patrol, and the lower captain is served by the clansmen, which has the establishment of five armors.
"Now that the spring rain is very cold, the people who are dependent on the outside are afraid of hunger and cold, I can guarantee that if it is not solved, it will not take a few days, not to mention the outcast people, or there will be problems inside. ”
"But it's easy to solve. Ye Qing gritted his teeth and said: "Without further ado, we recruited troops overnight, two hundred and fifty soldiers, and picked out the youngest and strongest of the two thousand people outside, what do I think to use to light the fire?"
Ye Qing continued, his tone was cold: "And the family members of the soldiers, come into our inner house, bake the fire, give porridge, give quilts, and isolate the inside and outside." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he was stunned all of a sudden, and stared at Ye Qing as if he didn't know him, he had been a housekeeper for decades, and he didn't know how many people he had managed, and when he heard this, he suddenly understood.
There were about 2,000 people and 600 households, and the youngest and strongest 250 households were selected, and the 2,000 people outside were immediately divided.
The family members of these two hundred and fifty families were put in the inner fort, which was of course a grace and was not subject to hunger and cold, but in fact they became hostages, and the Wu Chang and the Fire Chief were both served by the Ye family, and with the cooperation of the two, this military power was firmly controlled.
Ye Qing has his own deeper intentions, the so-called grace is everywhere, and it is not far away, in this case, he only relies on the clansmen, and he refuses to be attached to the door, and he is the master of the faint.
And the lord of mediocrity must be the lord of benevolence, and he welcomes all the outside, but he doesn't want to think about how long this thousand two hundred stones, and three thousand people can be supplied at the same time?
Moreover, if the lord is weak and the minister is strong, these 2,000 people can return to their hearts in an instant? In normal times, what if the people outside have no food to attack the fort, and the people inside and outside are pressured, and someone responds to fanning the flames?
Immediately it was a game of destruction.
Ye Qing pondered carefully, and smiled: "Of course, since it has taken refuge in us, it can't be too different, this is called the inner Liujia, and we will make up the outer Liujia." ”
"The exiles are powerful, and there are already thieves presiding, so they can't sit back and watch the series, and the twelve internal and external armor will cooperate to attack, and I will personally lead and suppress them. ”
"Pass my order, and those who kill the thieves and young and strong people can enter the inner fort for their families. ”
"For those who died in battle on the spot, their families can enter the inner fort, and their wives will be supported by me."
"Although the thief abuses the wife, daughter and child are innocent, pass on my order, and those who kill the thief's wife, daughter and child will be beheaded"
After Ye Qing finished speaking, the study was silent, only listening to the sound of rain, thunder and wind, the sky was dark and dark, the housekeeper was convinced, and said: "What the Lord said, I will do it immediately."
Ye Qing watched this person go away before he smiled.
The key to this scene is food, it can be said that if there is enough food, there is no need for a soldier or a general, as long as you raise your arms, open a warehouse and release grain, and all the people take refuge, you will immediately put down the thieves.
But there was no such amount of food, and the warehouse could only hold 3,000 people for a month and a half, and if the fort was simply guarded, and the crops were ruined after the chaos was struck, no one would survive.
But if someone is benevolent and wants to recruit all the displaced people outside, he is also a mediocre lord - can he conjure up food, even if he fishes and hunts, it is a drop in the bucket
When there is no food, someone calls: "The Ye family must have food, kill it"
What to do, wait for death?
All in all, there is not enough food and there are too many people
Ye Qing organized the internal and external Liujia, and immediately raised troops, not only to protect the wheat fields, but also to prevent the displaced people from connecting and breaking each other, and the main intention was to consume the population.
Therefore, he did not recruit directly at all, and judged the merit by the head, but after suppression, the thieves were allowed to surrender.
After killing the rebellious people and unifying the surrounding areas, according to Ye Qing's estimate, the combination of suppression and sacrifice will drop to about two thousand men from the original five thousand, and this remaining number will be enough to cultivate Xia Plough after the peace.
And the women and children, with about 1,000 protected in the fort, always have 5,000, which seems to be a lot of people, but they do not do heavy farm work, but help with laundry, cooking, and sweeping the floor.
It is possible to sustain life on one-fifth of the daily grain (porridge) of an adult man, and as long as it lasts until the summer harvest, the situation will improve, and then until the autumn harvest can completely overcome the difficulties.
After a few years, the child will grow up and recover.
Naturally, these calculations cannot be told to outsiders, but isn't it a great merit to let the family members of the army join in, reward them for meritorious deeds, compensate the families of the war dead, and show favors to the families of thieves?
Just as he was thinking, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a thunderclap and a torrential downpour.
