At this time, it is time for us to stand up and make our voices heard, whether it is for the court or for yourselves. Anyone who supports this reform of Lord Shijun, stand on my left hand side; those who do not support or oppose it
, please stand at my right hand."
As soon as Jordan finished speaking, he saw everyone present standing on his left side. Those few who hesitated saw this scene, and after looking around, they also stood together with everyone.
"Okay." Jordan was overjoyed when he saw this, and the pride in his chest had never been higher than it was now. He suddenly raised his right arm and shouted: "Re-measure the spiritual field!"
"Re-measure the spiritual field!" Several of the monks below shouted out.
"Distributed according to head count!"
"Distribution according to head count!" This time, thousands of people shouted at the same time, and everyone's face showed excitement and fanaticism.
Not only in CD, but at the same time, in Jiangyang, Hanjia, Wenshan and other places where the governors of Yizhou counties were located, the same voice was shouted out by countless people one after another.
There are two roads going south from Bodao. One goes through Nanqin and Pingyi directly to Yelang. Then from the southeast of Yelang, you can reach Lingling County and Guiyang County in Jingzhou. This road has existed since ancient times.
The other road going south from Bo Dao was dug out along the mountain manually. Because it was five feet wide, it was also called the "Five Chi Road". After the Qin Dynasty conquered Shu and reached Bo Dao, it continued southward for unknown lengths of time.
How many miles of vast mountains. The King of Qin was not satisfied with just conquering Shu, so he asked General Chang Meng to lead 7,000 people to dig a road south along the mountains, from Bodao, through Nanguang, Zhuti, Tanglang, and then arrived in Ning
Wei County in the prefecture. Later, during the reign of Emperor Shang Wu of the former Shang Dynasty, people were sent to open a five-foot road from Zhuti east to Pingyi. Since then, the north, south, east and west have been opened up, allowing smooth communication between Shu, Dian and even Guangzhou.
Since the Five Feet Road was excavated, this dangerous mountain road like a winding snake has become a road full of wealth in the eyes of business travelers. Jade and agate from the Yunnan region and silk well salt from the Shu region are the most popular goods for both parties.
At the same time, bandits who robbed business travelers also appeared on this trade route, large and small, spread across two states and four counties. Many of them had two identities, both civilians and bandits. When they were weak,
If they are robbed, they will become "honest and honest" common people when they are raped.
Yong Kai is the most famous bandit along the Wuchi Road. He has more than 700 men and horses, active in the Yunwu Ridge area to the west of the Wumeng Mountains. This place guards the North-South Five-foot Road and the East-West Five-Chi Road, and its geographical location is very important.
.In this southwest mountainous area, so many of his people surpass many small tribes scattered in the vast mountains, and their strength is very strong. The terrain of Yunwu Ridge is extremely dangerous, but there are lakes and land in one valley.
, there is even a small spiritual field of less than 30 acres, where Yong Kai set up camp.
The Yongkai family was originally the surname of Zangkai County, and his father worked under the governor of Zangkai at that time. Because he was dissatisfied with the excessive conscription and excessive tax imposed by the governor of Zangkai, his father repeatedly remonstrated and refused to carry out the orders of the prefect. Finally, he was found by the prefect.
On one pretext, he was sentenced to death for treason. Yong Kai, who was only 21 years old at the time, dispersed his family wealth and gathered a group of people to rob the execution ground in Pingyi County in broad daylight and rescued his father. Since then,
After that, he became a bandit on Wumeng Mountain. Because he was a bandit, he could not be ranked by the state or county, and no one knew what level of cultivation he was now. According to legend, he was wearing armor.
He was extremely skilled in cultivation and was good at wielding a broadsword. He was extremely brave. Wumeng Mountain was deep and densely forested, and the roads were dangerous. Yongkai had been a bandit for more than ten years, and the two counties of Zhu Ti and Zang Da had been unable to do anything to him.
There is another story about Yong Kai spread among Zhu Ti and Zang Da counties. After he snatched his father from the execution ground, he burned down his ancestral home with a big fire, taking his family and more than 30 servants with him. People fled to the Yunwu Ridge of Wumeng Mountain. Originally, there was a group of bandits living here in the Yunwu Ridge. The number was only fifty or sixty people. The leader was called Mr. Wu. Because Mr. Wu was shot by a merchant when he robbed a merchant in the early years. One of the monks was injured and fled. Yong Kai happened to bump into him and saved Wu Lao Da, who was seriously injured and was dying. The two became sworn friends. When Yong Kai's father was robbed, Wu Lao Da took several good men with him. He also followed Yong Kai to cause a scene in the execution ground. Those who followed Yong Kai to Yunwu Ridge included not only Yong Kai's own family, but also several light-hearted young monks he had befriended on weekdays, as well as their slaves, totaling over a hundred people. People. Everyone thought that Yong Kai treated others generously and righteously, so they all recommended Yong Kai as the new leader.
After Yong Kai declined several times, he saw that everyone was very determined, so he said: "You all think highly of Yong and recommend me as the leader. Yong is really frightened. If Yong is the leader, everyone should follow Yong's advice. There is a condition, otherwise, you will nominate the leader of the village separately."
Everyone in the Wulao people said: "Since we sincerely recommend the virtuous brother as the leader, we will naturally agree to it if there are any conditions."
Yong Kai then said: "Once the number of people reaches hundreds, it is inevitable that there will be disputes between each other. The most urgent task is to establish rules first. We are not allowed to kill or steal each other. Any disputes between men and women should be decided by the elders. They are not allowed to have sex privately, and weddings and funerals must be arranged..."
Therefore, under Yong Kai's management, the Yunwu Ridge was in order and everyone was happy. Even when it came to robbing merchants, Yong Kai formulated a series of rules. This made his reputation become more and more famous, and the number of people who defected to him increased. more.
One day, Yong Kai was in the valley instructing some young people in the art of bow and arrow. Suddenly he saw a person running towards him from the entrance of the valley. It was one of his right-hand assistants, E Hu. This E Hu was usually good at using a long stick. Spear cultivation is second only to Yong Kai among them.
"Brother, it's not good." The Ehu people shouted loudly before they arrived: "Boss Wu has been taken by someone, and that person is coming here."
Yong Kai couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Ehu's disheveled hair and disheveled clothes. Yesterday, he got news from the informant at the foot of the mountain that a business trip with a strange face was going to pass by the five-foot road at the foot of the mountain today. Firstly, this business trip had a strange face, and secondly, he did not interfere with them. The familiar flag. In layman's terms, it means that protection fees have never been paid to them. After learning the news, early this morning, Ehu and Mr. Wu went down the mountain with more than 20 good men to pay them. Take a look at this small group of unfamiliar business travelers. In Yong Kai's eyes, with Ehu and Wu Laoda, two monks with extremely rich fighting experience, a group of small business travelers is nothing. This group of people has always been on Wuchi Road. All traveling businessmen must come and pay their respects to the pier before they can pass through unimpeded. These rules that have been established for many years must not be broken.
"What's going on?" Yong Kai asked in a deep voice, suppressing the surprise in his heart.
"That group of people came for us." At this time, Ehu had long lost his usual heroic spirit of looking forward to Shenfei, and his dark face was covered with big beads of sweat. "Only one person took action. Boss Wu and I didn't even get through three moves before he beat us to the ground. After the man knocked us down, he didn't take our lives. He just asked me to come back and report. He took Boss Wu behind. Follow me and say that I want to meet you, big brother."
"What!" Even though Yong Kai was usually calm, his face changed color after hearing these words. He knew the skills of E Hu and Wu Boss very well. If the two of them joined forces, even he couldn't resist them, let alone how many times. He defeated the opponent within one move, "How could such a master appear in a place like this?"
"The people who came came towards me, but they didn't hurt either of them. They were certainly not officers and soldiers. Could it be that they came to fight with me? But why did such Zhou Xing come to such a place where birds can't shit? "Yong Kai frowned and was filled with surprise and uncertainty.
"Brother, look," Ehu pointed at the mouth of the valley, "the two are already here."
Yong Kai followed E Hu's hand and saw that the leader was tall and handsome. Although he was wearing common clothes, it could not conceal his unique and outstanding temperament. This man was holding Wu Boss in one hand. Although he was not hurried or slow, But with one step, there was a distance of several feet. Behind him was a fair-skinned middle-aged man who looked to be about thirty years old. He had a natural expression and followed the steps of the young man in front. It was obvious that his cultivation was also extraordinary.
These two people are none other than Zhou Xing and Du Chou. Gu Xi
I am not here to bring you weapons, I am here to bring you order!
This was the first thing Zhou Xing said after meeting Yong Kai. This sentence was later said by many people, including Yong Kai. A few years later, most people who study history in the world said Emperor Zhou Xing of the Han Dynasty conquered Yong Kai, which showed that he had already deliberately planned to betray the Jin Dynasty. Some people scolded Zhou Xing and said that he was a careerist and conspirator, while others praised Zhou Xing and said that he had unique insight and was able to deal with the chaotic situation in Yizhou at that time. Let’s take the lead in laying out the layout.
It’s just that what the party involved, Zhou Xing, thinks at this time is just that I want to protect the interests of the business center I am about to establish, and I need to build this five-foot road flowing with wealth into a safe and efficient wealth channel. He comes from his world The most common way to protect commerce is something that no one in this world would imagine, let alone understand. There are two east and west roads from Ningzhou to Shu. In addition to the Wuchi Road in the east, there is also the Lingguan Road in the west. This Lingguan Road passes through Yuexun County from Shu to Ningzhou. In Zhou Xing's view, this means there is competition. His fiefdom has just been established, and he cannot tolerate not firing the first shot.
Regarding the geography of this world, he originally thought that it was exactly the same as that in that game, but when he traveled all the way from Shangluo, he was surprised to find that although many places matched, there were also many places that did not match at all.
Take the Shu region for example. With his background in the Shushan Sect, he was extremely familiar with the territory and even the Yunnan and Guizhou regions. In his impression, Yunnan and Guizhou are not much different from the Shu region. Although there are also mountains, But there were not so many mountains as he saw now. He clearly remembered that there was a black swamp that stretched for thousands of miles over the Yunnan region. It was filled with black air all day long and there were few people and animals. After he came here, he walked around and Many people had vaguely mentioned this matter, but no one knew about it. This forced him to suppress these doubts in his heart.
Based on his accumulated experience from all aspects in later generations, only places with developed commerce and trade will develop into big cities. Although he knew clearly in his heart that when it comes to the geography of Shu, CD is naturally the first. But CD is CD, and that is CD Wang Huangfuying ’s fiefdom, not his Zhouxing fiefdom.
After Du Chou analyzed the turbulent political situation across the country and even Yizhou for him that day, he seriously considered how to strengthen his own strength so that he could protect himself from possible turmoil in the future. After thinking about it, he discovered
His territory now lacks everything.
There is a lack of well-trained sergeants, which requires a large population, and his territory currently only has more than 4,000 people.
There is a lack of weapons and armor, which requires a lot of leather and pig iron, as well as skilled craftsmen. If you want to make high-end weapons and armor with talismans, you will need weapon talisman masters and a lot of spirit stones, animal blood, and so on.
According to Du Chou, a soldier wearing armor and holding a sharp blade can ignore dozens of soldiers with the same skills but with bare hands.
He was still short of food and spiritual grain. In short, everything was in vain.
Du Chou did not support Zhou Xing's idea of subduing the bandits at first. First of all, he was crossing a boundary. Secondly, he couldn't understand why he wanted to subdue these bandits.
Protect business travel safety?
This is a matter for the government along the way.
Besides, bandits are rampant, and those business travelers still travel through this almost only passage all day long.
As for what Zhou Xing explained, protecting the safety of the trade routes would bring more business travelers and would be more conducive to building Bo Road into a trade center at the southern end of Shu. He was dubious about this.
Although he had experienced many people, he was trapped by the influence of traditional concepts and believed that territorial construction was to promote farming and pay low taxes. This finally gave Zhou Xing a sense of superiority in knowledge.
And Yong Kai's performance when facing him made Zhou Xing even more shocked. He also secretly doubted in his heart that the time traveler really had some domineering spirit.
Before he came, he and Du Chou had a very detailed understanding of Yong Kai's intelligence, and the two of them had repeatedly deduced the conditions that the other party might propose, so that they could provide the other party with bargaining chips.
Yong Kai and others are gangsters. Although they live a worry-free life, some of them must want to make progress. Fortunately for the civilians, many people live in muddleheaded life, and those monks are not willing to bury their talents in the mountains.
It is their own wish, but what about their children? Everyone wants their children to live a better life, instead of being born in the mountains and unable to see the colorful world outside.
Zhou Xing can give their descendants legal status.
Zhou Xing can also give them better cultivation techniques.
Zhou Xing can give them more supplies.
Zhou Xing can provide them with better medical care.
However, when Zhou Xing proposed the first bargaining chip, Yong Kai was still hesitant, while others such as Boss Ehuwu and others were already full of excitement. If Yong Kai had not yet agreed, he would have already accepted the offer.
"With the noble status of a prince, he can look up to us, but without these benefits, I am afraid that all my brothers will follow the prince." Yong Kai finally said, "It's just that what Yong can't understand is that the prince
What value do you see in these mountain people like me?"
