At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 89, Parting and the unchanged world

Chen County, Shangheli.

"Turn left!" Wu Jun yelled. It was just a simple military order, but he seemed to have used all his strength, making his whole face look ferocious.

When the rural soldiers in Shanghe saw the panic on Wu Jun's face, several of them turned around in the wrong direction.

This made Wu Jun even more angry: "Sooner or later Nai Gong will be pissed off by you, even a group of boys can learn better than you."

In addition to this group of rural soldiers, there was also a group of elders watching the theater. They laughed even more when they saw this funny scene, because what Wu Jun said was right. The children in the village also imitated Wu Jun's military training. These little guys Because I have time and learn quickly, I can learn to turn and march in a similar manner, and I look better than these young men.

In the past few months since Wu Jun arrived in Shangheli, the villagers have felt that life has become much better. Otherwise, the villagers wouldn't have the time to watch Wu Jun and the others' military training.

Wu Jun took them to cut moso bamboo and sell it to the rebels. He taught them how to fish in bamboo baskets and how to raise earthworms so that hens could lay more eggs. During this period, the lives of the people in Shangheli improved significantly. Everyone could eat a few meals and their faces became rosy.

Wu Jun brought so many benefits to the entire Shanghe River. His reputation increased rapidly and soon surpassed that of the village chief Qu Lu. The villagers in Shanghe River were willing to listen to Wu Jun.

Wu Jun became the chief of the pavilion in Shanghe. After allocating the fields and organizing large-scale production for the villagers, and accumulating enough grain, he began to organize the training of rural soldiers, but stopped for a month during spring plowing.

After the spring plowing, he immediately organized training for rural soldiers. But what he never expected was that during the month of suspension of training, these rural soldiers had forgotten most of what they had learned. This made Wu Jun very helpless. It feels like my dream of being a general is getting further and further away.

At this moment, a horse ran towards Wu Jun and others, and then asked: "Who is the chief of the pavilion in Shangheli?"

Wu Jun said: "I am."

"The general has an order, ordering you to recruit 50 rural soldiers from Shangheli and report to the south campus of Chen County in three days."

Wu Jun was surprised: "What happened?"

Tan Ma said: "The Qin army is coming, and the general has summoned everyone to defend Chen County."

After saying that, Tan Ma left Wu Jun behind and continued to move forward.

The surrounding villagers were shocked when they heard the news that the Qin army was coming, and many of them were even panicked.

Wu Jun looked at the rural soldiers he had just trained and said: "Go home first to arrange things and pack your luggage. Tomorrow I will take everyone to Chen County to disband!"

The soldiers walked towards their homes silently, while Qu Lu walked towards Wu Jun and said with a hint of panic: "The Qin army is coming, can we win?"

Wu Jun smiled and said: "Don't worry, the Qin army will not be my general's opponent. Since the uprising, the rebel army has never been defeated. This time it will definitely be our rebel army's victory."

Qu Lu continued to ask: "Will everyone go to the battlefield?"

What he is worried about is that the young people in the village will never come back.

Wu Jun said: "It is inevitable that the Qin State will not let us live a good life and will keep beating us. As long as we beat them hard, the Qin people will not dare to bully us. But don't worry, sir. We rural soldiers can only do some auxiliary tasks to defend the city." , the general will not let us face the Qin army directly. In the words of our general, this is a loss of life.” Wu Jun’s words could not reassure Qu Lu much, but he also knew that since the villagers divided their official fields, Shangheli and Shangheli had already The rebels are bound. If the Qin army invades Chen County, they will not be able to reap the benefits. Only by defeating the Qin army can their good life continue.

The villagers returned to the village, but everyone was worried. After going to the battlefield, life and death were not controlled by anyone. Who knows how many relatives will die on the battlefield this time. The whole village felt a sense of solemnity.

Wu Jun also returned to his home. In the past few months, Wu Jun had completely integrated into Shanghe. He built three large tile-roofed houses in the village, bought a cattle, and spent all the rewards.

Although the cost was high, the effect was extremely obvious, and soon a matchmaker came to him to introduce a daughter-in-law to him. Because in the eyes of others, Wu Jun has 200 acres of land, one cattle, three large tile-roofed houses, and is also the head of a pavilion. He is a big shot in the countryside. Isn't this a natural son-in-law? As for his disability, he has no disabilities. People care.

In the end, Wu Jun married the daughter of Qu Lu, the village leader, so he called Qu Lu "sir."

When Wu Jun came back, word had spread in the village that there was going to be a war. Wu Jun's wife, Xiaoyu, had already begun to quietly pack her husband's luggage and prepare dry food for the long journey.

Xiaoyu looked at Wu Jun and said worriedly: "We must come back alive."

Wu Jun smiled at his wife and said, "Don't worry, our general is a great fighter and has never been defeated!"

At this time, Qu Lu and Qu Huai came to Wu Jun and said excitedly: "I only have this young son left. You have to take care of him. If he dies, I can't live anymore."

Qu Lu had four sons in his life, but one died in the battle between Qin and Chu, and two died on the Qin army's southern expedition. Even a man like Qu Lu, who had seen life and death, could hardly bear the death of his last son on the battlefield.

Qu Huai said with a trace of anger: "Sir, what are you talking about? This is not to embarrass my brother-in-law, and the child may not be able to make contributions."

Wu Jun assured Qu Lu: "Don't worry, sir, as long as my son-in-law does not die in the battle, my eldest brother will definitely live well."

Qu Lu said excitedly: "Okay, okay, okay."

Qu Lu didn't care about making great achievements, he just wanted his youngest son to come back alive.

Such scenes of life and death were everywhere in Shanghe. Countless wives and mothers prepared clothes and dry food for their husbands and sons, and told them to keep themselves safe and not to worry about things at home. They would take care of the house.

The people of Chen County were no stranger to such conscription. For later generations like Xu Fan, the unification of the Six Kingdoms by the First Emperor marked the end of the Warring States Period. But for the people of this era, the Warring States Period has never ended. Their taxes have not been reduced with the unification of the world, their military service has not been reduced with the unification of the world, and their corvee has not been reduced with the unification of the world. The whole world is still fighting for 3-4 years.

In the memory of the people of the world, the world has always been like this. The people are not unfamiliar with this kind of combat mobilization. Although they are worried about their relatives and afraid of death, they still send their relatives to the battlefield according to the habit of the Warring States Period for hundreds of years.

Moreover, for the people in Shanghe, the rebel regime was better than that of Qin, and the general Xu Fan was better than the First Emperor they had never seen. At least now they had less taxes, no corvee, and the strict Qin laws Without them, life has become better. Even for the good life now, they are willing to send their relatives to the battlefield to drive away the Qin army.

 Some readers said not to blame the First Emperor by burning books and humiliating scholars. In fact, I don’t know whether this is true or not. I usually substitute what is happening now.

  For example, protecting cultivated land is definitely a good thing, so you can cut down farmers' bananas and cut down farmers' economic trees. Another example is that the soldiers who burn books all know writing and will not wrongly accuse anyone. After the Qin Dynasty, only Fa, Confucianism, and Taoism were left. All the schools of thought withered, and these had nothing to do with the First Emperor.
