Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

"Han Shantong is dead." Jiang Gui inquired around, and the first sentence after returning was this, "Liu Futong ran away with his son."

Lin Yuan nodded and said to Jiang Gui, "Brother Jiang, sit down."

Jiang Gui sat opposite Lin Yuan and said strangely, "Why is the fourth brother not surprised at all?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "It's expected."

Jiang Gui's eyes widened: "The Xiang Army is so powerful that you unexpectedly expected them to lose to the Yuan Army?"

Lin Yuan is playing against himself, and the original owner can play chess. Recently, he is impetuous and there is no one to accompany him, so he plays with himself. He said to Jiang Gui: "On both sides of the Yellow River, both sides of the Yellow River are the heads of Hanshan. Naturally they will send heavy soldiers over, otherwise? Ask Han Shantong to step on the face of the court?"

"Then Liu Futong took Han Lin'er and escaped, which is what you expected?" Jiang Gui couldn't figure this out. "Why didn't Liu Futong support Han Shantong's son?"

Lin Yuan played a game of chess, surrounded Baizi, and said with a smile: "Liu Futong came from a patrol inspection. Han Shantong is just an ordinary citizen. Since they have appointed a subordinate, Han Shantong naturally took pains to subdue him."

If Han Shantong didn't die, he might actually be able to hold him in this world.

Liu Futong was an official. Although he was only an inspector, he was from a wealthy family, read books and had knowledge, but historically, he tried to preserve Han Shantong's bloodline until the last second of his life.

It can also be regarded as true love.

Such people are rare, and Lin Yuan feels a little sorry.

If it wasn't for Liu Futong's relationship, he still wanted to pull Liu Futong into his boat.

Think about it.

Zhu Yuanzhang on the left, Zhang Shicheng on the right, and Liu Futong in front, how safe.

Of course, maybe Liu Futong just wanted to raise the flag.

However, the truth is not important. What is important is that the Xiang Army, the Red Turban Army's rebellion, and the death of Han Shantong all symbolize that the horn of the peasant uprising in the late Yuan Dynasty has been sounded, and everyone in the world will respond.

From now on, the court of the Yuan Dynasty will face a situation of embarrassment on all sides.

Lin Yuan will be safer here.

"It's time to check the army." Lin Yuan stood up and said to Jiang Gui, "Do you want to come together?"

Jiang Gui: "Go with you."

When Lin Yuan took a step, Jiang Gui naturally stood three steps behind Lin Yuan.

He looked at Lin Yuan's back, his mind was a little confused.

Jiang Gui is not a stupid person. On the contrary, he can live to this day and can support a large family in Wucheng as a small official. He naturally has his survival wisdom.

At the very beginning, he just thought that what Lin Yuan wanted was a Zhuangzi, a Zhuangzi who could be self-sufficient and worry-free in troubled times.

Later, for weapons and for more people, Zhuangzi expanded step by step, and later, in order to have a place in the troubled times, they came to Taizhou and took a big bet on their lives.

He didn't dare to think about what Lin Yuan wanted, but he had to admit that his fourth brother had really changed.

Originally in his eyes, Lin Yuan was a young man who was not deeply involved in the world, with little scheming, and a kind heart. Such a person might be suitable to be a rich man, but not suitable to be a leader.

But Lin Yuan told him with facts time and time again that Lin Yuan seemed to be born with this material.

I don't know how many times, Jiang Gui imagined walking side by side with Lin Yuan as before, but involuntarily stepped back.

It seems that the affiliation that was never clear before has become very clear now.

Jiang Gui’s eyes were complicated, and finally he clenched his fists and thought: Things have come to this point, and they have no way of retreating. He can only follow Lin Yuan closely. Maybe one day, he will become the big one he could only look up to before. Masters.

Lin Yuan took Jiang Gui to the training ground.

Today, the only people training recruits are Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Baisong and Yang Zian.

He had observed before and found that the three men had completely different training methods.

Zhu Yuanzhang pays more attention to discipline in military training, pays attention to upper and lower effects, one command and one action.

Chen Baisong is not like training soldiers, more like training bandits, teaching them skills when fighting the enemy on the battlefield.

Yang Zian is similar to Zhu Yuanzhang, but not as good as Zhu Yuanzhang.

Lin Yuan stood on the troop platform and felt that this troop platform was well repaired. Although Taizhou's troop strength was not very good, the infrastructure was really good. As expected, it was a land of fish and rice. Money is good.

Almost all the poor people in Taizhou were raised by him, and he asked them to find work, but in fact he was just looking for an excuse to give them food.

These grains were originally backlogged in the grain depots in Taizhou. Although most of them were stale grains, they were quite large.

Otherwise, the people can never be starved to death.

The posts were also made up by Lin Yuan, so that the people have work and food to get, so that they can return to their hearts.

Otherwise, send the food directly?What happens next?Do the people just wait to continue distributing food when there is no food?

Fortunately, the food in Taizhou will be harvested this year.

The pressure on grain will be much less. Lin Yuan also sent many merchants to collect grain by the way when collecting the craftsmen. Coarse grains and fine grains will do, as long as they can fill the stomach, they will take them back.

Also pay attention to any novelties on the merchant ships at sea, as long as they have something to do with the food, they will be taken back.

After all, apart from anything else in the Yuan Dynasty, trade routes were still developed.

The famous Marco Polo, who came to China during the Yuan Dynasty, wrote the nonsense that China is full of gold.

——It's not a nonsense. After all, foreign countries were too poor at that time. It is estimated that ordinary people can't even eat brown bread. The reality of many small countries is not as good as a village.

Who would have thought that an industrial revolution abroad would directly equalize the development time that was left behind, not only equaling but also exceeding it.

Lin Yuan looked at the soldiers under the stand. These soldiers were salt people and ordinary people. They heard that Lin Yuan’s military service would not deduct their salaries. They had meat every day, so they came by themselves. The wishes of these people are so simple. , It is estimated that there are not many people who pursue Feng Hou Baixiang.

Regarding the issue of food, Lin Yuan asked people to make meat into jerky, then go to the battlefield to fight, boil it in hot water and eat it.

As for the seasoning...it would be troublesome without plastic, and it cannot be made into small packages.

It's like making a hot pot base, and there is not enough oil to condense.

After all, they still use sesame oil, soybean oil, and peanut oil. These three oils can’t stay solidified at normal temperatures. Lin Yuan can only ask the cooks to put a little more salt on the jerky, so as to call the soldiers. On the battlefield, the bird will not fade out of the mouth.

After all, there is still half a month, and they will set out to attack Gaoyou.

It is not difficult to win Gaoyou, but after all, it is the first official war between the army and the army. Lin Yuan still hopes that these salt people and ordinary people can form an army to get some comfort.

Make a good start for the first time, and it will be smoother later.

After all, it was just a patrol, and Lin Yuan was not prepared to speak up. Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang and the others were looking at him, they made a gesture to continue.

——

Jiang Goudan is a recruit. He just turned fourteen, his parents were in bed, and there was no rice to cook at home. He heard that the army pays more for the army than for chores, so he slammed his mind and knocked on his parents twice. Ringing his head, carrying the only rag bag in the family to sign up as a soldier.

On the day he went to sign up, he saw that there was a long queue. He didn't know the people in it. There were old and young, but they were not crowded together by accident. He glanced at him and found that there were patrols around to maintain order. Just line up honestly.

During this time, there are always people on the streets saying that it is an honor to be a soldier.

Said to be a soldier to protect the homeland, save the poor and guard their homes.

I was able to eat my stomach again, and I had a lot of military pay. I became a soldier, and I still had meat every day.

As far as Jiang Goudan knows, many of the neighbors around him who are the same age or older have come.

Most of them are hidden from their parents.

Even the boys at the bottom of society have a heroic dream.

Young people are basically here to save their compatriots and guard their homes as they say on the street.

The older ones are paid for the meat and the army pay.

Jiang Goudan was afraid that he would not be elected, and he was uneasy. If he could not be elected, he would not be able to earn food to feed his family if he could not be elected. If he went to work as a handyman, he would not be able to earn food to feed his family. Can't do anything for money.

He must be a soldier.

"What's your name?" Finally it was his turn, Jiang Goudan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Jiang Goudan!"

The person behind the table asked, "How old is it?"

Jiang Goudan: "Fourteen, the real age is fourteen."

At this moment the man looked up and said, "It's too young."

Jiang Goudan's eyes widened: "Grant, it's not too young, not too young."

At the age of fourteen, Lin Yuan stipulated that he could only join the army at the age of fourteen and it would take time to grow up under fourteen. He didn't want to kill chickens to get eggs.

The steward said: "It looks solid, but do you have a wife?"

Jiang Goudan was a boy chicken after all, blushed, and said with a slight twist, "No."

Manager: "How many mouthfuls are there?"

Jiang Goudan: "There are five people, my parents and grandparents."

The steward nodded: "Take this sign and report to the barracks tomorrow. If you have lice on your body, shave your head tonight. Don't call the army squad leader trouble again."

Jiang Goudan nodded and smiled: "I understand, you are busy, Lord."

He held the sign, as careful as he was holding gold.

He ran all the way home, his mind was blank.

He did it!He can enter the barracks!He can feed this family!

The family can live without starving to death.

Jiang Goudan looked at the old man waiting for him to go back at his door, tears welling up: "Master! Milk! I'm in!"

The old man secretly wiped his tears.

If it weren't for being forced into helplessness, who would want the only grandson to take his life in exchange for a chance to survive?

The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and the enemy will not let him go when he is young.

"Okay!" His father's eyes were red, but he still said, "There is still some food at home. We will all have a full meal tonight!"

Jiang Goudan had a smirk on his face.

In the future, he will let his family be full every day.

When he goes to the barracks, he will save his food and take it home.

Maybe in a few years, he can still marry a wife!

Jiang Goudan grinned, unable to control his smile.

The author has something to say: There will be sacrifices on the road that Lin Yuan walks and cannot be avoided.

Touch the heads of the little angels.
