What are you looking forward to? Of course, I am looking forward to His Highness coming to Xizhou again. His Highness has made an agreement with them, saying that next time he comes, he will come to their home, celebrate the New Year and have a meal with them.
The whole Xizhou people are looking forward to this meal, but they don’t know when His Highness will come.
I heard that His Highness went to Tianzhu last year, and the straight-line distance from our Xizhou is not very far. In Tie Chui’s opinion, His Highness should recruit their Xizhou herdsmen, and send a man from every household to directly march all the way. Just push it over.
The thirty-six countries in the Western Region are all a bunch of trash! Even if they have some connection with them, even many of the Naxi Turks who once belonged to them are just a bunch of trash.
Iron Hammer has heard that in the past year alone, many people came to Xizhou from the Western Regions, Tubo and other places. I am afraid tens of thousands of people fled to live in Xizhou.
That is why His Highness, who lives forever, treats everyone so kindly. From Tie Hammer's point of view, aren't these people just robbing them of their living space by escaping in? They should be hacked to death, or captured and mined.
It's just that His Highness was kind and gave them the same status as us, the common people of the Tang Dynasty. He also distributed land to them and distributed the cattle and sheep in their hands to ensure their survival.
"Iron hammer! Hurry up, the sheep are being killed for sacrifice!" the people in the village shouted loudly.
"Come on, come on." Tie Zhui immediately calmed down and walked in. He is the village chief and he has to preside over this sacrifice.
After building the house, the herdsman family killed a sheep for sacrifice.
The sacrificial technique is also very simple, which is a little different from their previous methods, but it is also inherited. First, the people in the village dance a special sacrificial dance together, and then the hammer announces it loudly.
"Today we are offering sacrifices here. This first bite of meat will be given to our Highness." Following the hammer's words, he picked up the gorgeous dagger in the tray and shaved off the tenderest piece of meat from the sheep and placed it next to him. inside the tray.
Then everyone saluted and bowed in the direction of Chang'an City.
"This second bite of meat must be sacrificed to the Immortal Heaven..." Iron Hammer continued the ceremony.
When the sacrifice was over, everyone cheered. The lives of their families were getting better and better, and they had more and more cattle and sheep. Of course, they couldn't keep increasing, otherwise the grassland wouldn't be able to bear it. , but with the alfalfa they planted, it was obvious that each household could raise more cattle and sheep than they could before.
What's more, even if they don't raise cattle and sheep, they can't actually go hungry now, because the money they earn every month is enough for them to buy food.
"Ding Damu!" After all the rituals were over, Tie Hui called this herdsman family over. They got the surname themselves, or asked the captains and township chiefs who had read books for advice. The names will be according to their previous names.
"Village Chief." The master came over, his face full of smiles, his face wrinkled with laughter.
"You cut down more than 40 trees in total to build a house this time. Do you know what to do?" Iron Hammer looked at him and asked.
"I know. Starting tomorrow, I will take our kids up the mountain to plant trees, and then I will ensure that eighty trees survive!" Ding Damu said, patting his chest.
"As long as you know! The township requires 10 more trees. You can take care of the rest yourself." Tie Zhui said.
"That's not possible. His Highness said that these trees, grass, and other things are all related to our descendants. I, Ding Damu, cut down more than forty trees, and I will definitely plant eighty of them." Ding Damu said simply.
"Okay, you just need to know what's going on, but I'm telling you, don't plant randomly. Make a note of it yourself. According to what the teacher taught you, you have to reserve a certain amount of open space." Iron Hammer warned again.
"Come on, village chief, don't worry."
"Also, you are not allowed to light fires in the woods!"
"rest assured!"
Tie Zhui explained a few words and then left. He had other things to do today and couldn't stay here forever. The village was going to organize militia training, and he was one of the first batch of trained members. When he finished the training, he would also These villagers should be organized for training.
At that time, the township chief and others have said that we have to protect ourselves in the future. If any of the gangsters accidentally enter the village, we must make sure that he never comes back.
Although these herdsmen can ride horses and shoot arrows, they do not know how to fight.
Although Tie Hammer felt that this was not the case. He felt that herdsmen were quite brave, especially fighting for His Highness. But since His Highness also said this, Tie Hammer must abide by it.
In this Xizhou, His Highness's words and policies are absolutely implemented without any discount.
Many towns and villages in Xizhou have begun to build primary schools and middle schools for them. I heard that in the future, these elementary schools and middle schools will start military training.
All good things! Iron Hammer naturally thinks so. He feels that the descendants of this grassland will naturally learn from people like His Highness and follow His Highness's footsteps. He does not expect them to be able to help His Highness much in the future, at least when His Highness needs what they have in their hands. When it comes to steel knives and bows and arrows, they have to be able to wield them.
…
Tubo, Wosang tribe, this is one of the major tribes in Tubo. The main distribution area is not far from Lhasa and is located in the southeast of Lhasa.
After finishing her daily work, Sanya, who was wearing rough clothes, had just packed up her things and was preparing to give lectures in the evening when a hurried figure rushed over.
"Sanya is in trouble. Dorje was arrested by the leader of the Wosang tribe, Lezhaji." This man said loudly after rushing in.
"What?!" Sanya was stunned and almost jumped up from his seat, "You said Duoji was arrested? For what reason?"
"The son of the leader Lezhaji lost a jade pendant when he went out to play. It was picked up by a child. The child didn't know what it was and kept playing. When the leader's son came to find it, the jade pendant was covered with mud. The leader The son was about to chop the child to death. Duoji happened to be nearby and he rescued the child, and then he and his family were arrested by the leader Lezhaji." The informant told the story of the cause and effect.
"How is the situation now? Is Duoji okay?"
"After being beaten, the soldier who originally captured Dorje was also one of ours, but Dorje asked him to obey the leader's order so as not to expose us. He said that the time has not come yet. But... there are still some people who can't hold it back. There are dozens of families of herdsmen. They all went to plead for mercy. The leader of Lezhaji said that Dorji was trying to incite the serfs to rebel and that Dorji would be hanged in five days." The messenger quickly said, "There are still dozens of people who have been arrested."
Sanya took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Can we go see Duoji tonight?"
"Yes! The guards are ours, no problem." The messenger said quickly.
"Arrange for me to meet Dorje tonight." Sanya said.
"yes."
