Weird Three Kingdoms

The Shen family has been rooted in Shangyong for nearly 40 years.

When the Shen family migrated from Nanyang to Shangyong, they were basically poor and white.There are still records of suffering in the family at that time, saying that at that time, the seven brothers and sisters did not even have a decent shelter from the wind and rain, and could only settle in a hut.

But now, the power of the Shen family has spread all over Shangyong. There are 710 households belonging to the Shen family, with a total of 240 cattle and horses. As for other assets, such as shops and warehouses, etc., there are too many lift.

Regarding how they got so much property, the Shen brothers of course said that they earned it through hard work, or that their parents and grandparents accumulated it diligently...

It's just that if Shen Shi is asked to explain in detail how hard work and diligence it is, and it is best to get rich first and then get rich later, Shen Shi will basically turn his face immediately and call out his younger brother to hack and kill these unscrupulous people. An open-eyed guy who dares to ask such a question.

Therefore, the hussar general's Juetian system almost killed them!
Unlike some of the gentry children of Sanfu in Chang'an who can rely on politics or business transformation, the Shen family is not in the political circle and is relatively remote, so it is natural to be in the Shangyong area. The only way is to desperately grab land-type resources, and these land-type resources have become Shen's biggest pain at the moment.

Is Shin stupid?

Not stupid.

If it was really stupid, it would be impossible for the Shen family to accumulate so much property in the land of shangyong.

But in some respects, the Shen family is indeed not smart.

This kind of thing that involves their own small money is naturally not something that can be given up casually. The Shen brothers are very hardworking. In addition, he heard that Li Dian was training recruits in Yinshan, so he let go of his courage a little.

If the generals of the field army were compared with the generals of the recruit battalion, they would of course feel that the field army was more fierce, while the recruit battalion had a somewhat better temper.

They are mainly for training cavalry. When they come to Shangyong where there are many mountains, they are expected to be unable to use them, so most of them were demoted by hussars?

Shen Yi suddenly pointedly said: "Brother, this new General Li is hosting a banquet for the kings of Di people from all over the world. The banquet started at noon and lasted until midnight. It is said that after the banquet, there will be gambling games for fun..."

Shen Dan'an sat on the seat, nodded slowly, understood Shen Yi's meaning, but still asked: "Do you know what was said at the banquet?" 』

Shen Yi replied: "This General Li is new here, and he didn't bring many of his own servants. All he uses are the fire bosses in Nanzheng...Anyway, outsiders are used. What was discussed at the banquet will be announced soon. ...But since outsiders are used at the banquet, there will probably not be any secret discussions. 』

The defeat of Diren Wang Yangwan and Wang Gui is equivalent to breaking the backbone of the Diren. Now at least in a short period of time, the Diren cannot gather in one place to form a big alliance. Perhaps this is exactly what they saw , Fei Qian sent Li Dian to replace Zhang Liao.

Given Zhang Liao's fierce reputation among the Di people, with Zhang Liao around, the Di people naturally dare not act rashly, but the Di people also have no intention of doing business with the Han people, even if Zhang Liao said that he would not kill the Di people at will. Yes, Di people still dare not go.

Hanzhong is also a small basin. Although there are many Han people in the Nanzheng area, they are somewhat short of manpower in the face of the sudden increase in various commercial needs. Di people are undoubtedly the cheapest labor force.

So Zhang Liao left, Li Dian came, and as soon as they arrived in Hanzhong, they began to win over these Di people.

The Shen brothers boasted that they could see the connection clearly, so they wanted to make some tricks in it.After all, the Di people made trouble before, and the Shen brothers didn't dare to get too close to the Di people, lest they be involved. Now that Li Dian has made it clear that he wants to ease the relationship, the Shen brothers can of course respond to Li Dian's call and follow Li Dian's call. Li Dian's pace is like this.

Rebuilding the relationship network and expanding the communication surface is only the first step.

"It's okay to meet, but absolutely don't say anything important..." Shen Dan thought for a long time before saying, "These Di people have no courage now, and they will betray us to Li if they turn around..." Even if you are looking for them, you can only talk about business matters, salt and tea or something, and you can’t talk about other things...』

Shen Yi was silent for a while, then nodded.

With the first step, of course there is a second step.

Looking at the clouds and clouds in the sky, Shen Yi seemed to think of something again, she leaned slightly towards Shen Dan's position, and said in a low voice: "Brother, those...old soldiers..."

"Speak cautiously..." Shen Dan glanced at Shen Yi, and then said in a very low voice, "Zhang Wenyuan's military discipline is very strict, and the soldiers in Nanzheng are very afraid...so I dare not reveal too much...but If the new General Li likes to have fun, you can contact him again... However, now is not the time, we still have to be cautious...』

The two brothers looked at each other and fell silent again.

Be careful, be careful, be careful.

This depressive life has already made the Shen brothers feel breathless.

"Be careful, be careful, there's nothing wrong with that..." After a while, Shen Yi said, "But this can't be done or that can't be done, can it really be seen that this Juetian system is beheading us bit by bit? 』

Shen Dan was silent for a long time, then Fang slowly said: "Before Zhang's exit, you also saw... Now that the hussars are powerful and the soldiers are strong, even Cao Mengde dare not act lightly, let alone you and my brother ?So I think, in this current situation, if you and I try to cause chaos, then we will inevitably follow in Zhang's footsteps... We must follow the right path, we must not make a mistake...』

"Then what are we going to do? ’ Shen Yi asked.

Shen Dan looked up at the sky, and suddenly said: "This weather...do you feel...it seems that it hasn't rained for a long time?" 』

...(╯-_-)╯~╩╩...

Outside Xi County, there is an abandoned pier.

This place was originally a military site, but I don't know when or what changes caused the pier here to be abandoned.Later, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, some refugees came here. Seeing that the Dunbao still looked a bit like that, they reclaimed wasteland around here and stayed there. Several years have passed in a blink of an eye.

It was getting bright, and before the sun hit the pier, a few roosters jumped up to the high place, scratched their necks and began to crow.

The surrounding fields are shrouded in thin mist, and only some outlines can be seen at a distance.

Amidst the creaking sound, a woman pushed open the dilapidated door that seemed to collapse by itself in the next moment.

A lean dog outside the door quickly wagged its tail like a windmill, and leaned towards the woman's feet with a shy face.

"Go! Go! Go! 』The woman kicked the lean dog, and blasted it out.

The lean dog whined loudly, but squatted under a few wooden boards outside the door, guarding the broken earthen jar that was half pulled in front of it.

Chinese native dogs are not so delicate, and it seems normal to be hungry and full. These guys can even find some food by themselves, and they are extremely good at observing words and expressions. They are neither picky eaters nor need to be taken care of like serving Lao Tzu , um, there are some people who don't even take care of their parents...

Refugees, native dogs.

Groundbreaking house.

But at least it is a stable place to live, which already makes these people very satisfied.

Men have to do heavy labor, and if they can rest for a while, they can rest for a while, so most of these chores are done by women.

The woman rubbed her hazy eyes, ready to start cooking and eating.

This meal is to fight for a whole day, and then the second meal can only be eaten after returning from work at night. Of course, after the second meal, you have to go to bed immediately. One is that the lamp oil is too expensive to light after dark, and the other is a day's work. Come down regardless of men and women are exhausted.

Especially since it hasn't rained in the past few days, the seedlings need to be irrigated. Although the men are hard labor, the women also have to carry water for irrigation. Everyone will be tired and get down!
The doors of the surrounding neighbors also opened one after another, or older or younger women came out, some yawned, some scratched their heads, greeted each other, and they all started to get busy.

There are about [-] households living in the pier.

"That guy from the Wang family," a woman came over and said while she was busy with her work, "Don't you think this is weird...these soldiers were yelling and shouting outside a few days ago." I was so noisy...But now those soldiers are not here, but I'm still not used to it...It seems like something is missing...』

The woman shook the water from her hand, nodded and said, "No, it's really different to say what these soldiers are. They are energetic and obedient, and they walk vigorously, which is better than those in the river Luo Beijun looks a lot better...』

The older woman said: "Who says it is not? Their barracks are here. We can live there without worry... I heard that some kind of march was held in the past two days, and the people are all gone... Now there are only a few of the original counties left." Yes, those county and county soldiers can't do it, they like to steal chickens and dogs, your family Wangcai has to be watched... I heard that they stole several dogs and ate them. 』

"That's right, I'm talking about the Tan family, you also need to raise a dog at home, and it doesn't cost much, just one more bite of food, or let alone those thieves, even the yellow skin in the wild can't be touched... It would be much better to have a dog, if there is something moving and barking...』

The woman raised the fire, stretched her waist, and looked up at the field outside the pier.

That is their hope.

The wheat seeds and beans have been planted, just waiting to be watered and germinated.

Thinking of this, the woman couldn't help turning her head to look at the small waterwheel by the river.In her eyes, those extremely simple waterwheels are so cute...

Of course, if it can turn quickly, it will be even cuter.

The waterwheel and the canal were all built by the magistrate Zhang who sent craftsmen here.

It has not rained since the beginning of spring, so the water flow in the river is relatively small. When the waterwheel was repaired, it was built according to the water level of previous years, so it was slightly raised, so that the river now flows under the blades of the waterwheel. The waterwheel was not driven at all, so naturally no water flowed into the canal in the field below the pier.

This annoyed the people in Dunbao, and they sent people to Xi County to find Zhang County Magistrate, and wanted to adjust the waterwheel lower, but the craftsmen also had a lot of things to do, and it was impossible to say that they were on call. Arrive.

"Alas?Mother-in-law Qin, am I dazzled?The waterwheel seems to be moving! ’ The woman’s voice rose, obviously very excited.

When the woman on the other side heard it, she also looked quickly. The water wheel was indeed turning slowly. The two of them ran down happily, towards the canal beside the field, only to find that the canal was still dry... …

The two women were taken aback for a moment, looked at each other, and then walked towards the small waterwheel by the river, and after walking not far, they suddenly called out, "Someone!"There are people over there! 』

The fog was hazy, and when the woman saw that there seemed to be a figure shaking under the waterwheel, she became nervous, and after running a few steps forward, she could see more clearly that it was someone from Luxi Village downstream of Dunbao!

The water level of the river seems to be a little higher, which is enough to push the waterwheel, but it is obvious that the downstream Luxi Village is also short of water, so a few people are blocking the water inlet of the canal, so that the river can continue to flow down instead of Where it is diverted to the aqueduct of the pier.

"Someone stole water! 』

"Hurry up, people! 』

"People from Luxi Village have blocked our canal! 』

The woman's screams were particularly ear-piercing in the early morning, like a hornet's nest poking through a dilapidated pier, many people rushed out with a buzzing sound.The two women didn't wait for the people behind Dunbao to come out, they had already rushed forward and wrestled, even scratching, biting and beating, but how much strength the two women had, they were soon beaten by the people of Luxi Village went back.

But after a while, the men in the pier arrived with hoes, wooden shovels and dung forks, and the two sides fought in one place without saying a word...

……━((*′д｀)精(′д｀*))━!!!!……

Zhang Zhanggang took the writing for review in the county government office.

"Oh no! ’A yamen servant hurried up, sweat dripping down his face, ‘I’m telling you, my lord, people from Dunbao and Luxi Village fought over the water, and five or six people died! 』

Zhang Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and immediately threw the text in his hand on the table, "Where is the inspection?"Are you back? 』Xi County originally had no county magistrate and no inspections, only the county magistrate, but after Zhang Liao, Wei Yan and others regained Hanzhong, the county magistrate was imprisoned because he was involved in Zhang Ze’s affairs, and Zhang Zhang was transferred. Arrived here, and supplemented with one inspector and five inspectors.

"Xianzun, the inspector has not come back yet. ’ said the yamen servant, ‘do you want me to send someone to come back for inspection? 』

Zhang Zhang thought for a while, shook his head, stood up and walked out and said, "Forget it, there are still troops stationed at the pier, so it's the same if you call them!" 』

Two days before the inspection, it was reported that there were bandits killing people outside the city, so they took the manpower to investigate the case, and they haven't come back yet.

Zhang Zhang, who was born as a bachelor of agriculture, understands the importance of agriculture to a region, so he attaches great importance to the surrounding agricultural and water conservancy, but he did not expect that it would cause even bigger problems.

Dunbao is a refugee, and the people in Luxi Village are local residents.Originally, one was upstream and the other was downstream. When the refugees first arrived here, they more or less affected the people in Luxi Village. A fight broke out because of the water dispute.

When Zhang Zhang built the waterwheel for the upstream pier, he had actually considered the water distribution problem between the upstream and downstream, so he asked the craftsmen to raise the position of the waterwheel slightly, so that when the water flow reached a certain level, the upper and lower There will always be water in the downstream, rather than most of the water being taken upstream, resulting in a reduction in the yield of the mature fields in the downstream village of Luxi.

This is a helpless balancing act. After all, the fields in the lower reaches of Luxi Village are mature fields, and the yield per mu is higher. It is true that irrigation water should be satisfied first, while the upstream Dunbao is a newly opened barren land, and other conditions are not very good. Well, too much water is given, so it can be said to be a waste.

But I didn't expect that there is little water this year. There is no rain in Hanzhong during this period, and the fields are being irrigated everywhere. Looking at the wilting seedlings in the field, even the farmer will feel anxious. Finally, he sees that the water level is higher. The people in Xicun were worried that their irrigation water would be taken away by the people in Dunbao, so they blocked the Dunbao canal first.

All the saints in the world are dead.Even if there are individuals, they are not scolded to death, but killed to death.The people in Luxi Village naturally think about their own village and their own fields first. As for the people in Dunbao, let him die.

At the foot of Dunbao Mountain, there is a barracks.

This barracks is used to train mountain soldiers. Zhang Zhang originally thought that the soldiers in the barracks would cooperate to separate the two sides of the fighting, but what he didn't expect was that after he came, he found that the soldiers in the barracks had been taken away. After entering the mountains and forests for training, there are only some ordinary veterans in the daily maintenance and kitchen logistics left in the barracks.

But it's better than nothing...

So Zhang Zhang showed the seal of the county magistrate, summoned these ordinary old and weak soldiers, and rushed to the place where the incident happened.

Even the old and weak soldiers, when they were holding knives and guns and wearing leather armored shirts, were more or less imposing, and the two sides of the battle were quickly separated by Zhang Zhang and others.

At the waterwheel, some people lay down in disorder, some were dead, and some were moaning and howling on the ground.Blood flowed on the ground, and then quickly turned purple.In addition to these casualties who have been lying down, there are also many people in the crowd on both sides with blood stains on their heads, faces and bodies.

This is obviously not a battlefield, but this scene is not inferior to a battlefield.

"Who moved the hand?Who took the lead? 』

Seeing that the waterwheel he had built with good intentions turned into a battleground between the two sides, Zhang Zhang couldn't help getting angry and shouting loudly.

In fact, the best way at this time is not to pursue the murderer on the spot, but to persuade people from both sides to leave as soon as possible. Isn't it something that can be done by just sending two or three yamen servants?

Or at this time, the soldiers of the barracks below the pier did not train on the mountain, but all the soldiers were there, and the situation could be controlled under the advantage of manpower...

However, people have always been emotional animals.

When seeing these casualties, Zhang Zhang failed to suppress his anger, and when he wanted to enforce the law impartially, both sides were obviously unwilling to admit their mistakes. The initial response to Zhang Zhang's inquiry soon became mutual. There was a quarrel, and then there was another burst of gesticulation and gesticulation, and the emotions that had just been suppressed were churning again.

Before Zhang Zhang commanded the soldiers to do something in the middle, a stone flew out from somewhere, and hit Zhang Zhang's forehead with a "boom", immediately smashing a hole in Zhang Zhang's head , blood flowed down...
