Chapter 82 Everything depends on God’s will!
“No matter how smart Yun is, he is still young, but he is the patriarch of the Yun clan!
With this title of patriarch, even if Yun’s son has not opened Zhi is a fool, and the position of county magistrate still belongs to him.
In Lantian County, the Yun family is the oldest and most powerful. If this county magistrate is given to someone else, I am afraid that a certain family will lose it. The idea of keeping Lantian County peaceful will be in vain.
As for the amazing things this child has done recently, they are just the culmination of a certain family’s plan.”
“Since that’s the case. The adults value this child so much, this time..."
"You can't be underestimated by this child, this time you will destroy the king of heaven Liu Xiong, the king of saints Zhang Han, the king of melon back Chen Gun, and the one-winged Han Yaofei. This is my planned strategy, Liang He! I will obey the order!"
Hearing that the county magistrate had offended Liu Xiong, the king of Zhentian, the people in Lantian County were suddenly panicked.
The land of Shangnan has high mountains and dangerous roads. It has always been a place for bandits. The bandits here are different from the bandits on the plains. They have been in rebellion for a long time. Chen Gun, Yiyi Fei and Han Yaofei are not ordinary thieves.
The ancestors of these four people were originally military households in the Ming Dynasty, but they left the army for various reasons and eventually became bandits.
These four families are connected by the same spirit and are entrenched in Shangnan. The land of Luonan is a world of its own. The government has strangled them several times. Either they failed, or they were ambushed by thieves, and those who were killed were defeated. Return.
Even now, with Hong Chengchou's ability to lead troops into Luonan and Shangnan, the results will not be very good.
When these giant bandits come out of the mountains and onto the plains, it will truly be regarded as a tiger falling in peace!
Yun Zhao believed that this was the good opportunity that Hong Chengchou was waiting for.
Once the thieves obtain twenty thousand dans of yellow grain, their strength will increase tenfold in an instant.
Faced with such temptation, Yun Zhao didn't think those short-sighted thieves could bear it.
From the very beginning, Yun Zhao had no intention of confronting the four thieves head-on. Once he did, all his own family members would die. This was very uneconomical!
Now that Hong Chengchou is by his side, he will not compete with people like Hong Chengchou for military exploits.
However, food must be snatched!
For the people of Lantian County, and even the refugees, it is a very cost-effective thing to lose their lives in order to grab food.
It is a rare life experience, especially when a large group of people go to the weak bandit village to steal things.
Yun Zhao promised that they would become addicted after robbing them once. Even if they faced more powerful thieves in the future, they would want to do it again.
Finally a tradition!
When the people in a place are always thinking about how to rob others, and when they encounter an invader, they will not panic, but will feel happy!
"The roads in the Qinling Mountains are actually connected, but the government doesn't know it. If you start from Dongshanyukou, walk more than 30 miles westward and climb four mountains, you can reach Shangluo Black Mountain. This But the territory of Zhentian King
Last time, he used 600 people to attack the front line because he was close to us. After we cleared him, he felt that his family could not survive in Lantian County, so he united with the rest. The three families are ready to be divided!"
Yunmeng is very familiar with the bandits around Lantian County. The Yun family has been entrenched in Lantian County for hundreds of years, and his knowledge of this Qinling Mountains is far better than other bandits.
Yun Zhao looked at the simple map, tapped on it and said, "Will King Zhentian and the others take a small road to sneak attack us?"
Yun Meng said: "This is It is inevitable that Lantian County respects me, the Yun clan, and they will not be able to scare people unless they kill us."
"Is there a direct road to Shangluo that only we know and other bandits don't know?"
“Yes, but it’s not easy to walk!”
“That’s right, if it’s not easy to walk, then you can walk. Many of the refugees we recruit walk on mountain roads. Can you lead them to sneak attack on one of these four houses?" Yunxiao puffed out a puff of smoke and said with a sinister smile: "There is a road leading directly to Shangnan Jinsi Gorge, but it is a long way. It's three hundred miles away."
"Whose home is Jinsi Gorge?"
"Chen Gun, the melon-backed king!"
" Is his family rich?"
"Wealthy! He is an old thief who has been guarding the main road and is doing a lot of business!"
"Then give up the other three. Let's rob the Guabei King directly!"
"The road is a big problem!"
"We took the mountain road when we went there. Hong Chengchou should have dealt with these four groups of bandits when we came back. You can take the main road back."
"Okay, I'll take a trip this time! The family has suffered too much and needs to make up for it!"
Yun listened for a long time. Fu knocked off the residue from the cigarette pot, put the cigarette rod in his belt and said to Yunhu and Yunjiao: "You two, take five hundred people with me!"
Yunzhao shook his head and said: " Not five hundred people, but three thousand! The old thieves of the past century must have a lot of savings. As long as they are usable, they are not allowed to leave anything behind!"
"What to do with the surrendered prisoners?"
Yun Zhao turned a deaf ear and said to Yunmeng and Yunxiao: "These days, a large number of people have been stationed near the granary, and I personally guard it. My mother and other family members have all moved into Qingyu.
Leave Yunjiazhuang to Uncle Bao, Yun Yang. If the big bandits come, go to Yushan. If the small bandits come, lead the villagers to kill them!"
I didn't get Yun Zhao's face! Yun Fu sighed in reply, and left the house with Yun Hu and Yun Jiao.
When I walked to the door, I heard Yun Zhao say from behind: "Uncle Fu, although food is precious, it is not worth my life to fight for it."
Yun Fu turned around and said: "Only for Yun, right?"
Yun Zhao lowered his head and continued to look at the map on the desktop without answering.
After dawn, the number of people in Yunjiazhuang was obviously reduced. Even if there were still refugees, there were only some women and children left.
The young and strong followed Yunfu into the Qinling Mountains, while the old and the weak stayed on the Weibei Plateau waiting to die, or were already dead.
The construction of a huge reservoir in Beixiang has been completed. Tens of thousands of people from Beixiang and refugees have been busy on the construction site for a month, and now the results have been achieved.
The people left on the construction site today are all skilled stonemasons, blacksmiths, carpenters, and masons.
The tall waterwheel has been built, and we are waiting for the reservoir to fill up and open the gate, so that the gushing water can be sent to high places.
The waterwheel is extremely tall, with one water-moving blade being as tall as two adults.
More than a dozen carpenters climbed on the tall waterwheel and tinkled to repair the shortcomings of the waterwheel.
Some blacksmiths are carrying heavy axes and installing them on the tall and strong stone platform.
These tall stone platforms were carved out by masons with hammers, leaving gaps. Each piece of stone has two mortises and tenons, one male and one female, and the stones are interlocked together. It is so tight that Yun Zhao has personally tested it and found that even the blade cannot fit into the joint between the stone seams.
In the cold weather, six cattle dragged the thick hoe to crush the reservoir dam over and over again.
The sun didn’t bring any warmth to the human body. After only half an hour on the dam, Yun Zhao was chilled to the core by the cold wind.
Here, if you don’t move, it will be easy to freeze to death.
"When will the ice melt water come down in spring?"
An old stonemason hunched over and said to Yun Zhao: "If I go back to the county magistrate, the water in the stream will thaw in early February every year and the apricot flowers will bloom. By March 25th, the spring floods were over and the water in the stream began to return to normal. "Can the reservoir be filled in one and a half months?" p>
“This little old man really doesn’t know!”
Yun Zhao silently glanced at the upper reaches of Beixiang Reservoir. In the upper reaches of this reservoir, Yun led the villagers and refugees, and they had already been cleared. Sixty-three reservoirs, large and small, were silted up and 28 reservoirs were re-excavated.
If these ponds and reservoirs can store enough water, then these ponds will be barely enough to irrigate 160,000 acres of fields.
Because the Beixiang Reservoir and the water tanker can send water to higher places, it can also add another 30,000 acres of irrigated land.
Thinking of this, Yun Zhao turned his attention to the snow-capped Jade Mountain again, clasped his hands together, and sincerely hoped that this mountain that had nurtured Lantian County for tens of thousands of years could once again show his benevolent side.
Four reservoirs, more than 630 miles of waterThe canal, 121 waterwheels, and the 26-mile-long wooden plank canal are currently under construction in full swing.
According to the investigation conducted by Mr. Xu who has been running outside for half a month, everyone has been working very hard so far.
Including large households, upper households, and middle households, it can be regarded as a desperate effort.
Yun Zhao is not surprised at all by this result. Once these water conservancy facilities come into effect, they will be the ones who benefit the most!
