One per person?
One for each person!
How much gold does this cost——
Not much, just about two thousand pounds of gold.
Where did you get so much gold?
There was a demon monk's den in Chengdu that was destroyed by children. There were statues of eighteen Arhats made of gold, one of which weighed as much as that.
I'm the deputy commander, that's all?
That's not true, your gold is in Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake.
Li Si's gold medal was not cast, but was hammered out by craftsmen in the army using gold materials sent by Huo Cheng. On the front was a ferocious-looking dragon with a hole in it and a leather rope. , can be hung around the neck.
Zhang Donghai tried to hang one around his neck, then took it off again and said: It's too valuable for them.
Yunchu sighed and said: I sent someone to send Jiangchuan away... There were only a few wreckage left there.
Zhang Donghai was silent for a moment and said: Zhang Qiu Xiaofang has three thousand armors and five thousand civilians...
The purpose of giving this gold medal to the soldiers is to let them know that their lives are precious, and I will never send them to death easily.
I thought the commander wanted to use this card to identify corpses, but that’s right. It’s made of gold. When a person dies, anyone will take it.
Yun Chu put down the book in his hand, stood up and took a sip of tea: "For gold, I hope the soldiers will see themselves as noble and not do anything embarrassing for a few copper coins."
To Zhang Donghai, Yun Chu could only say so much. He didn't want Zhang Donghai to know that he had the intention to reform these Guanzhong soldiers.
Those who have gold medals will not take a penny from the poor. This sentence will be conveyed to the ears of every soldier along with the gold medal.
The remains of the Tang army sent to Jiangchuan and Tiechuan had long been devoured by wild beasts. Although Yunchu had expected this, he still felt very uncomfortable after the exact news came.
News from Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake said that Shengluopi now has five thousand armors!
However, Yun Chu didn't care. Although the army under his command seemed to be lightly armed and did not carry more heavy armor, in fact, the amount of gunpowder brought from Chang'an was more than five times that of the normal army.
All the gunpowder is sealed in wax-soaked bamboo tubes, so there is no need to worry about getting damp in the southwest environment.
If necessary, Yunchu was prepared to use a huge amount of gunpowder to level the bit of heavy armor in Sheng Luopi's hand.
After reading the news brought to him by the shopkeepers, Yun Chu had already made a plan in his mind. The war was not important. The major transformation of the primitive society in the southwest and the establishment of a new trend in the army were the top priority.
The life of people in the southwest is difficult, and the status gap between men and women is not as obvious as in the Tang Dynasty. Whoever can obtain more food will have a certain say in the southwest. This is determined by the land of the southwest.
Even in the Southwest 1,400 years later, matrilineal clan society still exists. Therefore, when this group of women who received funding from the Tang Dynasty first became wealthy, given that women naturally want to control something, it is estimated that, Men on this land have no rights at all.
It started to rain. As soon as it started to rain, thick fog began to form in the mountains. When the cold fog spread from the mountains, several elephants barked dissatisfiedly into the thick fog.
When Yun Chu saw that the blanket on the little elephant's back had slipped, he went up to cover them again, which made the little elephant feel grateful and kept touching Yun Chu with its soft nose.
Flames rose in Maoluo Village, dispersing the thick fog in an instant. Nong Yan's tall figure appeared in the intermittent thick fog, and the screams of people in the direction of his finger could not be heard.
He came to collect taxes.
All the pigs under the bamboo building were taken away, and a few sheep were taken away. When they saw beautiful women being taken away, it could be said that they would take away everything that was valuable in their eyes.
Even the men in the village were tied up with ropes and taken away.
When leaving, he also set a fire in the stockade and completely razed it to the ground.
A group of women and children were left lying on the wet mud ground, wailing.
A rotten sheepskin scroll that was thrown beside the cattle pen suddenly unfolded automatically. Inside, lay a girl covered in mud. She turned over and sat up from the rotten sheepskin and said to the wailing woman beside her: Your man is not Men, you don’t dare to gnaw when your pigs are taken away, you don’t dare to gnaw when your daughter is taken away, even your cows are taken away, they don’t dare to utter a sound, and in the end they are used by others. Put on the rope and drive away like a pig, you deserve it. The women who were already heartbroken did not dare to resist the devil-like Nong Yan. The slightly tall wild woman in front of them humiliated them in this way, so a group of women rushed over and looked like they were going to tear this woman into pieces.
Who would have expected that this dirty-looking woman was extremely strong. She knocked down one with one punch, kicked another one away, and finally beat the woman who scolded her the most harshly. The women in the village suddenly became stunned. He returned to reality and cried loudly again.
If you want your cows, pigs, sheep, and food back, just shut up!
The miserable women were startled by the woman's loud voice and immediately closed their mouths, even covering the mouths of the wailing children.
Prepare some water for me, I want to take a bath.
Can you really get all our livestock back?
a woman asked cautiously.
The woman sighed and said: I will exchange it for myself.
A woman looked at the dirty woman and shook her head: They don’t seem to want ugly women.
The woman smiled and said, "You'll look beautiful after you wash it off."
A group of women doubtfully brought an earthen jar, propped it up with three stones, filled it with spring water, pulled out some torches from the burning bamboo building and placed it in the earthen jar.
When the water got hot, the woman jumped into the jar.
After pouring out the dirty water full of mud, replacing it with new water, and after heating it, the woman jumped into the big tank to take a bath again. After she stretched out her head buried in the water, the women in Maoluo Village began to bathe. I'm stunned. This woman is even more beautiful than the Moon God. As long as she is presented to King Nongyan, he will be able to get back all the livestock and food in the village, and maybe he can also bring back those worthless men. Want to come back.
So, the women quickly poured out the darkened water and filled it with new water to heat. This time, the woman's bathing speed slowed down, and her long black hair hung on the edge of the earthen jar. Three women from Maoluo Village carefully rubbed her hair with soap locusts.
They have never seen a woman whose skin is as white as snow, nor have they seen a woman whose eyebrows are prettier than flowers. They have never seen a woman with such red lips and eyes like stars in the dark night. They just Seeing her smile, even her body that had just been wet and chilled by the rain became warmer.
The moment the woman came out of the earthen jar after taking four baths, the women in Mao Luo Village prostrated themselves on the ground, no longer daring to take a peek. They felt that they had met the real Moon God today.
There was a set of outrageously beautiful tie-dye dresses in the woman's rotten sheepskin roll. Although this dress was not as silky as silk, and not as gorgeous as brocade, when she put it on, she put on With a pair of lightweight indigo shoes, the women in Maoluo Village began to worship, hoping that the Moon God would bring back their livestock and food.
After the woman used thatch to clean up the dirt hidden between her fingernails, she stretched out her white hands and rubbed them carefully. Then she said to the women with satisfaction: "Take me to see the Nongyan King."
Yun Jin looked at Nong Yan returning home with a full load. There was no smile on his face. Instead, he sighed and said to Di Guangsi: Their endurance is much stronger than I expected.
Di Guangsi said: "Don't judge the world by the temperament of a few of us."
Yun Jin said: They knew that they would suffer countless hardships and might die if they followed Nong Yan back, but they still did not choose to resist. However, this Maoluo Village is the furthest tribe from Zhuti City among the seventeen tribes.
Wen Huan shook his head and said: They resisted, but they failed many times and many people died. In the end, they stopped resisting.
Yun Jin said: Where did you get the data?
Wen Huan said: From the local ballad, the ballad says that Brother Tiger went to save Sister Bear, was injured by a hunter, escaped back, raised her
Hao Shang went to rescue Sister Bear again and rescued Sister Bear, but Brother Tiger died. Sister Xiong cried all day long, and her tears flowed into a lake.
Yun Jin said: Aye said that the key points of translated works are faith, elegance and expressiveness. You are also a scholar. Can't you translate these ballads with the three qualities of faith, elegance and expressiveness?
Wen Huan curled his lips and said: Brother Tiger went to save Sister Bear, but he failed to save her twice, and in the end he even took his own life. Sister Bear cried all day long, and she cried a lake. Not only were you not moved, but you also made fun of her. People are vulgar.
Let me tell you, in the environment they live in, it is impossible not to resist. However, due to years of unfairness, there are many people who resist, many times. Unfortunately, they all fail. In the end, they are not like Sister Xiong. Crying out a lake.
At this time, what they need is rescue from external forces!
Yun Jin nodded and said: Then speed up the progress. We need to meet the real exploiters as soon as possible. Only by fighting them will everything we do so far become meaningful.
Di Guangsi said: Yes, the people here need to be saved, not inspired to rebel...
Li Chengxiu glared at Di Guangsi and said: At this time, you should put aside your good intentions. The main business is to have the Wuman people from thousands of mountains and valleys sweep away the Baiman people.
