Northern Dynasties

Chapter 324 Going straight to Tianshui
The turmoil lasted for more than a quarter of an hour before it gradually subsided. The hundreds of trilogy brought by Yang Ling had no fighting spirit after seeing the lord captured. Whether they dismounted and abandoned their weapons, fell to the ground and surrendered, or fled in all directions, there were very few people who really dared to fight back.

When Li Tai returned to the Yiting, those Lueyang chieftains who were detained there and were not allowed to come out all flattered one after another: "Your envoy is really a young hero, brave and unparalleled! This Yang Ling is also known in the county. The hero is not the enemy who makes you count!"

Yang Ling, who was tied up here, heard that the young general who was fighting with him turned out to be Li Sanqi, and his eyes widened in surprise for a while. After a while, he was suddenly discouraged, and said in a weak voice: "I have no eyes but no pearls." I don't know the real nobleman, and suffering this calamity is also retribution. I dare not beg Shijun to let me go, but I beg Shijun to see that I have done nothing in the town for a few years, and don't involve too much my subordinates. They are scumbags, never I don't know the prestige of a nobleman, but I just obey my orders..."

"Dog thief! You were still arrogantly insulting and offending the envoy before, but now you have been captured by the envoy. Life and death are up to you. How dare you expect to be punished lightly? It's a dream! You have been in the county for more than two years. , insulting the villagers, what merits can we boast!"

Several Lueyang chieftains who had been suppressed by Yang Ling couldn't help shouting and cursing loudly when they heard this. The most active chieftain, who had been secretly recorded by Li Tai in the small notebook in his heart, even guarded the post pavilion. Squeezed out from the gap between the soldiers, and kicked Yang Ling face to face.

Li Tai frowned immediately when he saw this, raised his hand to signal to pull this person away, and called Holland closer, and said, "Although the situation here in Lueyang is not a matter of my case, it will be determined according to the situation." I really want to tell Dugu to open the mansion. Brother He Lan, please temporarily lead the people back to the county until the state capital is destroyed. I will not go to the county town, and go straight to Tianshui. I will take this Yang Ling with me, and the army in the county will Temporary appointee, brother He Lan, will make proper arrangements after I enter the town as a deacon."

After hearing the words, Holland quickly nodded yes, and secretly became happy in his heart. It is different to have reliance, not to mention how the state government will deal with this, Li Tai directly entrusted him with the management of the military in the county for the time being. This was unthinkable before.

Li Tai knew that Holland might not be able to control the soldiers and soldiers in the county just by his words alone, so he pulled Yang Ling up again, leaned over to stare at the other party and said in a deep voice: "I make such an arrangement, Yang Ling Does Sima have any objections?"

"No, no! There are more than [-] healthy soldiers under the account of the humble position. They obeyed the orders of the Helan envoy and paid them with the military symbols of the county soldiers. However, the humble position cannot guarantee whether they obey the orders. From a humble position..."

Yang Ling nodded again and again, yes, and searched among the subordinates who had been captured here, ordering the general who carried the talisman to hand over the token quickly, and at the same time did not forget to state that the arrogance of the chieftain here is also uncontrollable.

After Holland collected all the soldier talismans as if he had found a treasure, Li Tai then ordered his subordinates to release the county people in the post pavilion and let them return to the county with Holland.

But when the powerful chieftain who kicked Yang Ling away and was pulled away was about to leave, Li Tai raised his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "This village sage angrily accused Yang Sima of committing crimes in the county before, but I have just entered this township, and I am unfamiliar with all kinds of personnel and affairs, so I invite you to go to Tianshui with me, and report to the state government the facts of Yang Sima's crimes in detail, so as to be fair and fair!"

After hearing the words, the noble chief immediately showed embarrassment, shook his head and waved his hands, and said: "Xiaomin is just a peasant from the countryside, and he has not been out of the county all year round. I really dare not..."

Before this person finished speaking, Li Tai's face darkened suddenly, and the smile on his face turned into a sneer: "It seems that I didn't speak clearly enough, so I shouldn't invite you here. Someone, please slander the county magistrate. Take it down!"

The two strong soldiers went straight forward, clasped the shoulders of the heroic chieftain and bound him like Yang Ling, completely ignoring the heroic chieftain's twisting and struggling.Seeing this scene, the tyrants in other counties changed their expressions immediately. Two people came forward to ask for mercy, but after being swept by Li Tai's cold and stern eyes, they all hung their heads in silence.

"Whether the county magistrate has neglected his duty or violated the law, the Taiwan government has its own review regulations, and the satire of the hometown must also be expressed according to the rules. If what this official said is true and there is no false accusation, I will send him back to my hometown. But if what he said is true I will never condone those who are partial to reality and conceal plots of framing!"

Li Tai looked around at the crowd, and then said: "If you feel that one person's words are hard to prove, you can also go together. If not, just leave and leave without hindrance!"

After those county people heard this, they looked at each other, but after all they didn't dare to push forward, and after saying goodbye, they quickly left here together with Holland.

Li Tai and his party didn't stay any longer, Dang even packed up their bags and continued on the road, going all the way along the Lueyang River.

On the way, they also encountered some people haunting them, or the escaped Yang Lingbu called their companions, but they just followed and watched all the way, and did not dare to go forward to intercept them.Other than that, there were no other accidents.

The climate change in Longyou lags behind that in Guanzhong, and the river thaws slowly. Although it is early March, there are still large pieces of floating ice in the Lueyangchuan river, but in the valleys along the banks of the river, the fields are full of vitality. It has gradually recovered, and occasionally farmers can be seen plowing the permafrost.

This Yang Ling is not a good-for-nothing madman. After being taught a lesson by Li Tai and seeing that Li Tai had no intention of putting him to death, he respectfully and enthusiastically explained to Li Tai all kinds of human customs here. .

"Although the beginning of spring in Longbian is much later than that in Guanzhong, the spring days are particularly short, and summer will soon come. Therefore, farmers have to plow the soil before it thaws, and if they slack off, they will miss the farming season..."

Hearing Yang Ling's explanation, Li Tai couldn't help laughing and said, "Di Nu also knows farming time?"

"Although the ethnic groups are different, there is a total of land and water in this area. Di and Qiang also have the difference between raw and mature. They lived in Qiuchi, Longnan in humble positions, and their production schedules have long been the same as those of Han people. Farming is much safer than animal husbandry. Grain, no matter how tall or short , will always leave seeds. Cows and sheep are living creatures that consume a lot of materials, and the fur, meat and milk that can be supplied to the shepherds are really limited..."

Seeing that Li Tai was interested in this topic, Yang Ling's heart was lifted, and he didn't care about what to call it, so he began to tell Li Tai about the income gap between farming and grazing.

Li Tai hadn't seriously and systematically understood the difference between these two production methods before, and after listening to Yang Ling's narration, he was also touched a lot.He didn't intend to kill the other party at all, and after seeing that he was no longer arrogant and unruly, he ordered his subordinates to untie him, give him a ride to ride with the team, and stop treating him as a prisoner.

Soon the group left Lueyang County and entered Qingshui County.Li Tai didn't have any acquaintances like He Lande in Qingshui County, so no one came to greet him. He only had a rest in the posthouses along the way for supplies before continuing on the road, and finally arrived in Tianshui County.

As soon as the group entered the country, they saw a team of thousands of people standing by the side of the road in front of them, and some soldiers came to inquire from afar. After learning that it was Li Tai and his party, they hurriedly returned to report, and everyone on the opposite side rode their horses to greet them. come forward.

"Your Majesty has worked so hard all the way, but I couldn't meet him as a servant. I hope you can forgive me!"

The first person who rushed to the front was Li Tun, a long-acquainted Dugu believer. He got off his horse and looked up at Li Tai. He crossed his hands with joy and said that his welcome to Li Tai was beyond words.

Li Tai also got off his horse and exchanged greetings with Li Tun first, then the people from the back came to meet him one after another, and there was an acquaintance inside, that is Gao Bin who was Sima of Qinzhou.

As for the others, Li Tai was relatively unfamiliar.Probably because Duguxin had had enough of being poached by Yuwentai, and the staff recruited in Longyou would not go to Guanzhong if they could not.

Li Tai holds many positions, including chief of staff of the founding mansion, prefect of one county, and governor of five counties. As a chief, he entered the town for the first time. Of course, all the subordinates within his authority must try their best to greet him. Nearly 30 people came to greet him in front of him alone. welcome.

Of course, not all the people present were Li Tai's subordinates. When Li Tun introduced the people to him, the first person he could not control was the one he couldn't control: "This one is the envoy of Yuwen, Duke Nan'an of Southern Qin Prefecture... ..."

Yu Wenqiu is also a standard burly figure for the townspeople, and his attention was not fully focused on Li Tai. After hearing Li Tun's introduction, he took a step forward and nodded, and immediately asked: "I heard that Li Sanqi's way A prisoner Yang Ling was arrested in Lueyang County, may I ask where this criminal is now?"
