Chapter 375: The Barbarians in the Great Song Dynasty (Three Watches)

When Yanjing City was discussing the matter of Goguryeo, the people of the Great Song Dynasty also learned about the Jin invasion of Goguryeo through the Di Bao, the newspapers organized by the imperial court, and some storytellers, and they continued to discuss this matter.

Many of the migrant workers and people who dug the Yanjing section of the Grand Canal also returned home in the cold winter, and only a small number of homeless people and some barbarians who entered the Great Song Dynasty are still on the construction site.

These people were mixed together, at this time they were all wearing cotton clothes issued by the imperial court, except for some differences in the buns, the others could not see who was the Song people, who was the barbarians, the snow outside was like a sieve, these people were all curled up in thatched houses, these houses had charcoal stoves, and the charcoal stoves were surrounded by a person, men and women, old and young.

"In charge, I heard that the Jurchens fought Goryeo, and the Great Song Dynasty doesn't know if they will take the opportunity to send troops, and if they send troops, will they let us take the lead. ”

A woman in a fur coat by the stove looked at a strong man in a sheepskin coat, with short shaved hair, and fiddling with the charcoal stove with iron tongs.

Hearing this woman's words, the strong man looked up at the woman, and said lightly: "We can't be soldiers, we can only serve here for three years, we can be soldiers, and only after serving for one year can we get the household registration issued by the Great Song Dynasty.

The strong man smiled angrily, with a little hope on his face, and the woman was a little dissatisfied: "What kind of soldier, when it snowed heavily on the grassland in previous years, the tribe got on the horse and went to the pass to rob, which also means that the people of the tribe are less than half, and now there is food and drink, and these stoves are better than the cold and frozen in the grassland." ”

"What do you know about this woman, there is naturally nothing to do when you are a small people, I can see it, this beggar of the Great Song Dynasty is also better than us in Mobei, this is the paradise that those masters say, just if you want to get ahead, either study to gain fame, or become a soldier to earn a knighthood, then Asha dared not to take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty, won the reward, became a commander, received the real power of the general, as long as there is a war, with his ability, he will soon become the dignitary of the Great Song Dynasty. Although we are now full and well-fed, we also have a shack to avoid the cold, and the housekeeper also issued this stove, but once we leave the river beach construction site, all the consumption in the future will have to be purchased by ourselves, although this stove and charcoal are good, but in the future we need to buy their own, the old man also has to buy this dry tobacco, we don't have these things in the grassland, we are used to enjoying it, and how to give it up. An old man shrunk in a torn cotton jacket with a layer of sheepskin on the outside took a puff of dry smoke and said lightly.

"Or Abba said well, here, those leaders no longer dare to let us hand over the goods, as long as we have a little strength, we can make a few cents of money, but it's a pity that we can't be soldiers, who in this world have us steppe people are good at being cavalry, with Brother's ability, how can we be a chief, a centurion is not a problem, as long as we have a public office, those Song people will not dare to look down on us, we can also buy more cotton, dry tobacco and coal, say no, you can also buy some silk, even slaves. ”

"What does the half-grown boy know, now there is no leader, but there is an official government, we still have to pay taxes and serve, and silk and slaves, in previous years it was good to have a broken jacket.

Let the Song people do the war themselves, and we will not take part in it! As long as we work for another year, we will be able to get a piece of land in Jiangnan. The woman still didn't want the men to go to war, and rebuked her little son.

It's just that this kid said with an unconvinced face: "Grandma, we are not Song people, and farming is definitely not as good as the Song people, it is better to fight with the army and win a knighthood immediately!"

"Little rabbit cub, dare to talk back to the old lady, if you don't farm, can't you still work hard? What is lacking in the market, on the docks, and on the construction site are all those of us who have strength, even if you don't sell your strength, you can still be the guard of the caravan, the guard of the nobles in the city, it is better than going to the battlefield. ”

When the woman and the young man were arguing, the old man gently buckled the dry tobacco pole and said: "Don't argue, we can't be soldiers, the Song people won't let us be soldiers, now those who can be soldiers can only be the children of the Song people, if you want to be an officer, you have to be innocent, didn't you listen to those soldiers, those who made mistakes to become soldiers, you also need to go through an assessment in the army, and eliminate your sins with military merits before you have the opportunity to be an officer, these Song people are shrewd and tight, if it is really bad to be a soldier, how can they let their children go to be soldiers!"

Hearing the old man's words, the woman didn't argue, but just muttered: "In the past, I joined other tribes, worried that I would be sent to be cannon fodder, but now I don't want to be a soldier but beg to beg, I don't know what you think." ”

This woman and some women of the Song people are often together, three or three get together, that is, some parents are short, now there are storytellers on the construction site, and the women of the barbarians have also learned a lot of words, at this time they muttered, so that these men couldn't help but turn dark, and they also felt so in their hearts, in previous years on the grassland, the tribe really couldn't avoid the wind and snow, either went south to harass the Song people, robbed things, or took refuge in the powerful tribe, but at that time, these people were either treated as slaves like cattle and horses, or young and strong were sent as artillery fire, consuming the enemy, but they had to be like this, so that there was still a hope of survival, otherwise they would definitely die, but when they came to the Great Song Dynasty, they were just required to work on the construction site, although they were a little bitter, but they were full and drunk, and they still had some meat for three or two days, and if they did well, they could be promoted to the leader, and they would be like those Song people with some fine silver, and in the cold winter, they could also get some shabby robes, although they were old, they could still keep warm, and these stoves and coals made them feel very satisfied.

Especially those who are soldiers, although they are vicious, but they don't dare to withhold anything, and they are very polite in the face of those Sven scholars, which makes them have some belonging to this Great Song Dynasty, and I hope that this kind of world can last longer.

Other shack barbarians are also discussing these things, and every barbarian who can enter the Great Song Dynasty is very satisfied with these, and they are also discussing in their hearts whether the Great Song Dynasty will send troops to the Jurchens, and some barbarians also hope that when they send troops, the Great Song can let themselves be soldiers.

While they were discussing around the fire, there was some noise outside the hut, and before they could react, a group of people walked into the hut, led by a young official dressed in thick cotton clothes and a thick coat, holding a brush and a thick scroll in his hand.

"Master Su, you see, we didn't deduct charcoal and grain, even these barbarians, we don't dare to have the slightest deduction, you can rest assured!"

A scribe wearing embroidered clothes said with a smile, and a general wearing cotton clothes and armor next to him also smiled and said: "In the past few days of heavy snowfall, we have reasonably allocated the houses, and these people are in good order and there has not been the slightest turmoil. ”

This Bachelor Su looked at this general, and said with a smile on his face: "General Chen, this stove, charcoal and other items belong to internal affairs, and your military government can't interfere in violation of the law." In the section of the Lin'an River, because Lord Wang handed over the materials to the military government to distribute them on his behalf, now the bachelors, generals and adults there have been reprimanded to the Hetao, check and retain, we can't make this mistake. ”

Speaking of this, Master Su looked at the barbarians who stood up and said with a smile: "Since these people have entered the Great Song Dynasty, they are Song people, there can be no difference between barbarians and Song people, and they must be treated equally." Order and safety on the river section must be guaranteed, in view of the end of the Sui Dynasty, Your Majesty and the lords of the court and the central government are extremely concerned about the affairs of the canal, and it is a merit to do a good job here, if there is the slightest mistake in the pool, then it will be a catastrophe. It's also a business affair below, so you can forgive me. ”

"That's nature, Your Majesty's decree, whoever dares to disobey, we will do our best. ”

The scribe replied with a smile, when the general heard His Majesty, he was immediately in awe, if the entire Great Song Dynasty was the most supportive of Zhao Shu, it was none other than these soldiers, Zhao Shu fought in the south and the north, crisscrossing the battlefield, which made them extremely awe-inspired, and promoted the status of the soldiers, which made them understand that they must support His Majesty in order to maintain their current status.
