A crisp and rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded on the mountain path, and the native soldiers on the lookout picked up their bows and arrows and looked alarmingly into the distance.
The four corners of the stockade are built with high lookouts, and the view is wide, and you can see the movement in all directions.
From the high lookout, there was a brown horse galloping along the mountain path like an arrow, and the man on the horse shook the whip in the air, and then whipped it on the horse's thighs, very rhythmically, and as the whip was drawn, the horse was faster.
"It's the second steward" A sharp-eyed native soldier was the first to shout: "Open the gate of the village, it's the second steward who has returned." ” The wooden gate of the upper half of the fence with the tip of a spear was opened, and the middle-aged man on the horse rushed towards the stockade with another fierce whip.
This is the village of the Kaoru period, the Kaoru period governs a large territory and countless people, but his village and people are distributed in various places such as river valleys, mountains, and plains, and the village where the Xunjia Tusi ancestors have lived for generations is only larger than other villages, limited to the output of the land, and cannot gather too many people here.
Kaoru had just returned from touring his stockades and fields.
Toast is in his land, feared like a god by his people, and no one dares to offend the authority of Lord Toast.
But the premise is: toast for everyone to eat.
If Toast left his people without enough to eat, it would be a great danger to him.
A long time ago, there was a toast who did not carefully choose good seeds to distribute to his people during spring ploughing, and as a result, the crops did not grow very well, and when the pest infestation occurred in the summer, he failed to take effective measures to exterminate the pest, and the result was that there was no harvest in the autumn.
Another toast who has a grudge against him takes the opportunity to lead his troops to attack him, and there are often frictions and fights between the toasts in this land and even between the leaders of the same toast, but they all deliberately control the scale, and once it develops to the point of being out of control, even if they themselves don't want to stop, other toasts and leaders will intervene.
But this time, before the other Tusi and the leaders could intervene, the Tusi who sent the army successfully attacked the enemy's main village and killed his family, because as soon as his soldiers and horses arrived, the people of the other Tusi surrendered on their knees, and no one resisted and no one protected their Tusi.
In the end, the Tusi who hastily intervened could only choose a Tushe from among the immediate family members of the killed Tusi to inherit his position as Tusi.
This was taken as a lesson by all the toasts, who would tell their chosen heir about it again and again, telling him the importance of the land, the grain, and the people.
Kaoru also grew up listening to this story, and he came across as a rude, savage old man on the outside, but in his village, he was a leader and elder who loved his people and took care of everything.
The customs of the Bai Man are similar to those of the Han people, mainly farming, silkworm raising, weaving, fishing, and a small amount of grazing, and the most important thing for them every year is of course the arrangement of spring ploughing, but the summer is also very important for drought and pest control.
This year, there is plenty of rain, so there is no need to worry about drought, and the most important thing to worry about during the smoke season is insect pests.
He had just returned from the field, and the crops planted by his people were growing well this year, and he had gone into the field to take a closer look, and the effect of the pest was minimal, and he rode back to his stockade with a satisfied smile on his face.
The people who met him along the way stood respectfully and bowed to him, and Kaoru rode on his horse, straightened his back, and nodded majestically to his people.
At this time, a fast horse galloped in the distance, and Kaoru glanced at the man, and then scolded with a smile: "Sure enough, it's Long Fei, this kid likes to be reckless." ” The man who rode into the village also saw him, and the horse rushed towards him, and when he was six or seven feet away, the man hurriedly pulled the reins of his horse, and when the horse neighed, and when his forefoot stepped on the ground again, he ran quickly to Kaoru, bowed deeply, and took out an invitation from his bosom.
He said to Xun Period: "Lord Tusi, the Qin messenger sent by the imperial court invited Lord Tusi to Yaozhou City to discuss the arrest of the rebels, because the banquet was scheduled for tomorrow, and the servants were worried that they would miss the time for the adults to go to the banquet, so they rushed back immediately." ” As soon as Xun Qi heard that Huang Jingrong had summoned him to go, his face sank, and the second steward Long Fei respectfully presented the invitation, Xun Qi grabbed the letter in his hand, and looked at Long Fei and said: "I heard that when the wind was feasted, all the toast heads were very unhappy."
Long Fei said respectfully: "It is that Qin Cha who probably thinks of himself as the emperor of the Central Plains, and all our toasts and heads are his minions, he is very rude, and all the toasts and heads are very angry at his rude actions." ” Kaoru Qi accentuated his tone, and said in a loud voice: "What a chincha, that is a greedy hyena, a ferocious jackal, his eyes only have gold, women and power.
It's a big joke that the poor people will rebel Only the female emperor who sits in a palace made of gold and makes a fortune, listens to the flattery of a few close attendants, never personally inspects her people, and never looks at the harvest of her land, will believe such stupid words Long Fei, if I remember correctly, the daughter-in-law married by your son is a rogue woman."
Long Fei smiled and said: "Yes, my lord, that's really a good woman, she is handsome, hard-working, and very filial to the elderly, the most rare thing is that she is as literate as you are the master of Toast."
Blessed is my son.
She's pregnant now, and I'll be holding my grandson soon. ” Kaoru laughed and said, "Then you say, will she rebel or should she be dragged to beheaded?"
Long Fei was angry, and his eyes were red: "How could such a docile and good woman rebel She is still pregnant with my own grandson Long Fei in her belly, which dog-day Han official dares to pull her to cut off her head, Long Fei will fight with him" Kaoru laughed, he didn't open the invitation at all, just tore it to pieces, threw it into the air, and then turned his horse and galloped towards the watchtower where he lived.
Yun Xuan hurriedly found Wen Hao and said in a low voice: "Xun period refuses to come" Wen Hao asked nervously, "Could it be that he found something?"
Yun Xuan said angrily: "I have inquired about him when he found a fart, he was put in a position by this Huang Jingrong when he was in Wangzhou, and he was blackmailed before letting him go, it is strange that he is willing to come again."
Wen Hao turned around nervously twice in the room, and asked again: "Then Meng Zhezhu is willing to come?"
Yun Xuan said: "You don't know, Meng Zhezhu has always liked to compete with the Xun period, and if the Xun period doesn't come, won't he come and lower his value?"
Wen Hao struck with his fist, very annoyed.
Yun Xuan comforted: "You don't have to worry too much.
I originally said that this method is useless, and if they capture their toast, their tribe will not exchange the submission of the entire tribe for the freedom of the toast, and then a successor will be brought out, and we will not end well if we raise the banner of avenging the toast. ” Wen Hao gritted his teeth and said: "Then there is no way, I have to use force" Yun Xuan said happily: "That's right, this can only be used in this way."
Then we'll do it tomorrow."
Wen Hao nodded heavily, and then instructed: "Don't forget, first ask Huang Yushi for a warrant" Yun Xuan smiled knowingly and said, "Don't worry, I can save it."
In the afternoon of the next day, in a terraced field on a hillside, farmers were toiling hard.
It was still so hot, and the treetops were hanging weakly, and suddenly there was a small sound of horses' hooves in the distance.
The farmer, who was working in the fields, looked into the distance, and saw several horses galloping towards him, and to the right and behind the horses, there was a large group of native soldiers with pike spears and long knives.
The peasants thought that they were the old man who had come to inspect the territory, and hurriedly returned from the field, but did not dare to look up, and were about to kneel down and kowtow to the master of their own family, when the native soldiers with guns and knives pounced on them like wolves.
The farmer was surprised to find that these lords were not the masters of his territory, and some of them quickly fled to the fields, mountains, and valleys, and some of them gritted their teeth and pulled out their swords because they still had wives and children to protect.
The people of this place are fierce, whether it is to resist the possible bandits, or the beasts that suddenly emerge from the mountains and forests, a knife is a must-have weapon for them.
But the peasants were outnumbered, and soon there were corpses left on the ground, and the rest of the people fled.
The farmers who fled back to the cottage had just told the head of the village what had happened in the field, and the head of the village ordered people to blow the horn and gather the young people in the village to rush to the rescue, and those people had already rushed to the cottage with murderous spirits.
The cottage was looted, and the grain, cattle and sheep, and everything of value were forcibly taken away by the robbers, and some of the robbers even carried some young and beautiful girls on their shoulders.

The grief-stricken and inexplicable people cried and fell to the ground, cursing and crying as the robbers hurried and hurried away, and the sparks flew all over the burning houses.
After Yang Fan arrived in Yaozhou City, it took two days to find out the power structure of Yaozhou and some of the things that happened after Huang Jingrong arrived in Yaozhou.
However, Yang Fan has not thought of a particularly appropriate way to provoke a greater contradiction between the Yaozhou tribe and Huang Jingrong without a trace, prompt them to make trouble, and control the situation within the scope of control.
At this time, Huang Jingrong couldn't wait to launch an attack on the head of the Xun Period.
Yang Fan never expected that Huang Jingrong would be so cooperative, he hadn't done anything, Huang Jingrong had already done everything, and he was better and more efficient than him To be continued:
