Zhang Bian left Lingju in early August and arrived in Xingyang in early September.
The military service personnel who gather in Xingyang from all over the country will basically go through basic training in their hometowns, at least for a month.
When they arrive at the place where they are served, they will draw up a very detailed plan, and if nothing happens, they will basically practice one day every three days, and the rest will be on patrol.
Xingyang County is a large county in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the late Han Dynasty princes fought and crippled the Central Plains, especially in the area close to Guanzhong, there were princes who crusaded against Dong Zhuo, and then experienced the Western Liang soldiers repeatedly ravaged, and the dilapidated place has long been dilapidated.
In the later Cao Wei period, Cao Cao paid attention to the recovery of various places, but the continuous wars and the sharp decline in the population made the recovery actually quite limited.
Cao Wei's priority is Yuzhou, that is, the periphery of Xuchang, and later changed the capital to Yecheng to pay attention to Jizhou, and the rest of the other areas want to pay attention to it.
It was not until the Sima family moved to Luoyang that the old Cao family moved to Luoyang, this ancient and glorious land was once again valued, but the good times did not last long, Sima Zhao and other older generations died one after another, and the juniors continued to attack for power, and the ancient land that had recovered a little bit was constantly destroyed in the war.
The Western Jin Dynasty collapsed, and the Southern Xiongnu first established the "Imperial Han", and Liu Yuan chose Chang'an as the capital.
Although the Southern Xiongnu were a nomadic people, after hundreds of years of sinicization, their ideology, especially the high-level thoughts, was actually infinitely close to the nobles and scholars of the Central Plains.
The slogan of their uprising was to restore the rule of the Han family, and it had to be said that it was actually okay for the Han people within the scope of their rule.
The "Emperor Han" was terminated in the hands of the Southern Xiongnu themselves, and Liu Yuan's successor, Liu Yao, was restructured, and the name of the Han State was changed to Zhao, and he also had a nerve against the Han people in the ruling class, so he gave the Qian people the opportunity to replace them.
At the beginning, Shi Le was very respectful of Han culture, and he respected the Han intellectuals in the group, but he was extremely cruel to the Han people, especially the Han women.
His achievement in the fourteen years of his reign was to defeat the Xiongnu in the former Zhao Dynasty, subdued the Qiang and Di tribes to become his minions, and also defeated and absorbed the largest resistance force of the Han people in the Central Plains, the Qihuo Army.
Shi Hu usurped power and became the ruler of the Later Zhao Shijie Zhao State.
Compared with Shi Le, who can still disguise a little, Shi Hu is not even bothered to disguise, not only brutally dealing with the Han people, but also writing the law that the Han people are the lowest.
After Shi Hu's repeated efforts, the number of Han people decreased sharply again, and most of the Central Plains was converted into pastures.
"Not only Xingyang, but also ruins everywhere along the way, even if they are renovated, they are also in obvious dilapidation."
Zhang Qing is very enthusiastic about serving and has a high desire to understand information from the outside world: "In the four years since the Han Dynasty was recovered, except for Shandong, which was the first to be recovered, this is the case everywhere. ” Now Xingyang, its city wall is full of gaps, more pieces of collapse, the new residents have been trying to rebuild the city wall, at the beginning is not enough manpower and financial resources, the center decided to do the city no longer build the city wall, and the matter of re-building the city wall will not follow.
People are hesitant to have a city without walls, and if someone comes to attack a city without walls, what will be used as a defensive support.
In addition, it is now the age of wild beasts roaming around, and the city wall is not only a defense for the enemy to attack, but also a function of existence to prevent wild beasts from entering the city and wreaking havoc, so it is very reasonable to hesitate to build the city wall again.
No kidding, even when the country is stable, the things of wild beasts hurting people have appeared again and again, that is, most of the natural environment has not been developed, at least it has not been developed enough to force the beasts to move, even if it is normal to encounter wild beasts on the outskirts of the city, there are more wild beasts in the countryside.
When Zhu Xia built the village, he would at least build a fence wall, which was used to prevent wild beasts from entering the village, and although the city walls existed for military purposes, they were also a guarantee to prevent wild beasts from entering.
The center patted his head, and no more walls were built in various places, perhaps not thinking about the threat of wild beasts to people "Lack of manpower and lack of financial resources, but what" Zhang Qing subconsciously sat his butt upright, and said with a smile: "I'm waiting for patrols, isn't it just prevention" In the history of Zhuxia, the first ruler who felt that there was no need to build walls throughout the country was Emperor Shi, and if he didn't build a city wall, even if there would be rebellions in various places, the rebels who didn't have the city walls as a defense would not be able to hold on.
There is another reason, that is, Xianyang has been a city without walls from the beginning, and he will promote it to all parts of the country because of his understanding of Xianyang, for example, Xianyang people who do not have walls are not necessarily affected by wild beasts, and the rest of the places should be like that.
It is that Xianyang has no city wall protection, which causes Liu Bang to lead the army to break through the pass and it is difficult to resist, Ziying will carry a hundred officials to kneel down, so that every ruler after this really does not dare not repair the city wall, not only to repair, but also to build majestic and strong, otherwise there will be such a thing as the end of Qin again, everyone will find it funny.
Those rulers don't know if they have thought that if a country is beaten to the capital by the enemy, even if it has a city wall, what can it do Liu Yan felt that there was no need to build the city wall, first of all, there was really no such financial resources, and the labor force should not be wasted on building the city wall.
Because of the environment in which he grew up, and because he has become a high-ranking person, he really ignores the harm of wild beasts.
Zhang Bian also subconsciously shook the prey on his shoulder, it was a wild boar they killed when they were patrolling, it was not too big, but it was not so easy to deal with, the speed of the wild boar was quite fast, and it was still a long time before it could be solved.
Wild boars are not their first prey these days, on the fourth day of their arrival, a large number of people were dispatched to hunt tigers, and there were dozens of various beasts killed one after another, and the suburbs of Xingyang were like this, so you can imagine what the situation is in the countryside.
Hunting beasts of prey is difficult for armed and organized armies, and it is even more difficult to deal with people who have little organization and few weapons, all of whom are from the countryside, and even if they have not experienced it, they will hear about who has been injured or eaten by wild beasts.
"We're actually fine in the northwest over there."
What Zhang Qing said was that the northwest was not built as a pasture at least, and the Zhang family did not issue a hunting order.
He said: "Everywhere the Karma have ravaged, how many wild beasts have overflowed. ” The full name of the so-called hunting order is called the hunting ban, and Shi Hu asked the Han people in the court to discuss and write it, clearly stipulating that the Han people are not allowed to hunt for any reason, and once discovered, they will be arrested and beheaded.
Under Shi Hu's ban on hunting, the Han people could not resist even if they were attacked by wild beasts, and if they could not escape, they would be killed by wild beasts, and I don't know how many Han people died and were eaten by wild beasts.
What kind of existence is the prohibition of hunting without too many words, it is to use the law to clearly point out that the status of the Han people is not as good as that of wild beasts, and another effect is that wild beasts began to multiply in large numbers, and they previously belonged to the ruling territory of Shijie Zhao, and the number of wild beasts is simply terrifying.
"Of course, there are many" Zhang Qing personally participated in as many as 37 hunts, and more than a dozen tigers, cheetahs, bears, and wild boars were killed, and hundreds of jackals, wolves, and wild dogs were killed, and sometimes they returned empty-handed: "Before us, the predecessors had been hunting, and they couldn't kill them all. ” The big wild boar is also a big threat, in fact, the adult big wild boar is not lower than the tiger threat at all, and it can even be said that the ferocious big wild boar is more fierce than the tiger.
In many villages, the biggest threat is not tigers, but wild boars that breed several at a time, and there are far more examples of wild boars injuring and killing people than tigers and other beasts.
Nowadays, the busiest business of the county soldiers in each county is to hunt wild beasts, and the military's interest in hunting wild beasts is also very high. is like Zhang Bian, when he went out, he was one meter six and was more than 100 pounds, and he lost some meat on the march, but after he was stationed in Xingyang, it increased to 126 pounds, which was that nutrition kept up with weight gain, and his height also went up.
Not only will the garrison kill wild beasts, whether it is to reduce the threat to the living environment, or to be able to eat some meat, the people will also organize to hunt, but only some brave people will stare at the beasts, more often than not, they will hunt a dozen pheasants, rabbits, roe deer and other wild meat.
The current Han people have undergone considerable changes during the period of their rule, and the mental state of the Han people after re-becoming Chinese is one thing, and the quality of life has also repeatedly improved, such as the meat brought by hunting and cheap seafood, which has reduced the proportion of food they consume plant-based food.
It is natural that just eating plant-based food, coupled with no oil and water, an adult may not feel full after eating a pound of rice at a meal, even if he is full, he will be hungry again.
If it can be paired with meat, or more oil and water, not only the tongue can be satisfied, but also the stomach will not be digested so quickly, and with the support of more nutrients, people's physique will inevitably be improved.
On the way back to the camp, the number of Zhang Qing's team increased again and again, except for the robes who also went out to patrol, it was the people who came together halfway.
It is a matter of course, in the era of sunrise and sunset, when you go out to do all kinds of work during the day, you will naturally go home after dark, and there are only a few roads, and it will be more secure to walk together with the army, so you will naturally have to go together.
"Shi Erlang, the roe deer is going to make up for the mother-in-law" Zhang Qing himself is a cheerful and sociable person, not only has he made a lot of friends in the army, but he can also talk to the local people after getting to know them, and he has more friends when he comes and goes.

His shouting made the man named Shi Erlang smile innocently, and the rest of them laughed in a string.
It doesn't matter if Shi Erlang's daughter-in-law is pregnant, the important thing is that he actually has a daughter-in-law.
You must know deeply that there has always been a gap in the ratio of men and women in the Han Kingdom, and the gap between men and women in some places is even more exaggerated, so it is not easy to ask for a daughter-in-law.
"Erlang" is a sort, his real name is Shi Zhong, and he is the second oldest in the family.
Of course, the name is also sorted, Zhuxia has always been called an uncle, the second is called a certain Zhong, the third is called an uncle, and the fourth is called a certain season, in fact, it is the order of uncle, Zhong, uncle, and Ji, for example, Liu Bang is the fourth in the family and is called Liu Ji, and Liu Bang is still changed because of Xiao He's poem after becoming Pei Gong.
There is a shortage of women in the Central Plains, especially in Xingyang, a place close to Sizhou, that is, the Qiang people took too many women from the people when they retreated as two-legged sheep as military food, and the Han army was rescued after defeating the Qiang army, but there were almost no women who returned to their hometowns, either they were placed in situ, or they were married by the soldiers in the army.
Xingyang has a population of more than 3,000 people, and there is a serious shortage of women of the right age, and women of the right age have their own criteria for choosing a husband.
Shi Erlang is nineteen this year, and he has to thank his eldest brother for getting married at this age.
His eldest brother is not a member of the army, but he went to the Indochina Peninsula a few years ago, and brought him a daughter-in-law back when he returned to his hometown from the Indochina Peninsula last year.
The Han people are no longer so unfamiliar with that place in the Indochina Peninsula, knowing that the princess or something is a joke at all, and the tribe where hundreds of people gather has a king.
A king's son is a prince, and a daughter is a princess, and that kind of king, prince, princess, or something is not a joke.
"I could go earlier, but I can't go now."
Zhang Qing knew about the Indochina Peninsula and said to Zhang Bian: "With the Yangtze River as the boundary, the southerners go to the Indochina Peninsula, and the northerners go to the grasslands or the Western Regions. ” Zhang Bian didn't know these things when he was in his hometown, and he didn't know until he left his hometown.
Of course, he didn't understand why the country had such restrictions, but he knew that there were hundreds of people in Xingyang alone, and it was incidental to go to the Western Regions to grab a handful of those people in Xingyang, and more to rob a mother-in-law to come back to himself or his relatives as a daughter-in-law.
"We don't have such a shortage of women in the northwest."
Zhang Qing looked like a know-it-all and said: "The south is also relatively better, and the rest of the places are also short of women, even Shandong." ” Zhang Bian said with repulsion: "The people of the Western Regions are different from Zhuxia, they are worse than the women of the grassland, it is better to go to the grassland to rob them in the Western Regions."
"How many wild tribes are there in the grassland now" Zhang Qing of course knew why Zhang Bian was like that, and said funny: "In order to continue the incense, it is also to get the assistance of the government, no matter what white skin and blue eyes, it is a serious matter to have a daughter-in-law." ” Zhang Bian thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be the same thing
