Chapter 858: The Han tribe has a maternity hospital.
Xue Qingyao's political arrangements were quickly completed, and Yang Feng's military arrangements were simpler. Everyone discussed the public trial tomorrow and hurried back to prepare.
The next day.
As soon as the sky brightened, the entire Qingquan Valley became busy.
A group of young and strong people were organized from the local people to chop wood and fetch water, and send them to the canteen in the camp for use. The people in the canteen were all logistics soldiers in the Han army, and the meals they cooked were naturally foods with the characteristics of the Han tribe.
As a peripheral member of the Jinwu Guard, Xun Ge'er naturally played the role of a mouthpiece. On the one hand, he followed the arrangements of the Han tribe to reveal information to the local people, and on the other hand, he monitored the local people's views and attitudes towards the Han tribe. If the people had any emotions, he would report them immediately.
At this time, Xun Ge'er was leading a few companions who were in the same tent at the beginning to help in the canteen in the camp and distribute food to the local people.
In front of the kitchen shed stood a long table, on which was a bamboo winnowing basket, with cornmeal buns piled high into a small hill, emitting sweet and hot steam.
The people queuing up to receive food kept sniffing their noses. This was something they had never eaten before, although it was made of their corn.
"Mom, what is that? It smells so sweet!"
A barefoot girl followed her mother and pointed at the small hill of buns in front of the team and asked curiously. Her saliva flowed unconsciously. Facing the temptation of the steamed buns, she had no resistance at all.
"Mom, I don't know either. It's something made by the people of the Han tribe." The little girl's mother said honestly.
"Mom, I want to eat that thing." The little girl asked again, looking at her mother with a pair of watery eyes full of expectation.
"Eat! Eat a big one! Are two enough?"
"Yes, thank you, Mom. Mom is so nice."
The line to receive food slowly moved forward. The little girl finally came to the steamed buns. She pointed at the steamed buns on the table and shouted to Xun Ge'er, "I want two!"
"Oh, two, can you finish them?" Xun Ge'er looked at the lively little girl and said jokingly, but when he saw that the little girl's mother was still pregnant with a six-month-old belly, he stopped joking and directly took a big bowl, put four cornmeal steamed buns in it, and continued to greet them.
"Come, take your steamed buns, there is meat porridge and pickles over there, go over there to eat, don't run around, there are not enough bowls here, you have to wash them after you use them and give them to the people behind you."
"Thank you." The pregnant woman thanked sincerely.
"Of course, we will be members of the Han tribe in the future. The Han tribe treats the people very well. I heard that the Han tribe has a maternity hospital that specializes in helping women give birth. Giving birth in the Han tribe is much safer than here, and more children and adults survive." Looking at the pregnant woman in front of him, Xun Ge'er casually began to promote the welfare of the Han tribe.
"Really?! Will we have it here in the future?" The pregnant woman was not very interested in the Han tribe, but after hearing what Xun Ge'er said, she couldn't help but have some hope in her heart.
This is not her first pregnancy. The first child gave birth to a daughter, who is now with her. The second child died within a month after birth. Now she is pregnant with the third child.
But even so, it can be said that this woman is very lucky. At least she was fine in the first two births, but the second child was not saved, which still made the woman sad for a long time. After all, it was born after ten months of pregnancy, how could there be no feelings?
Now that she heard that the Han tribe actually has a safe way to help women give birth, and the survival rate of adults and children is higher than theirs, the woman naturally has the hope of joining the Han tribe.
Who doesn't want to keep themselves and their children safe? !
"There will definitely be. Even if there is not, you can tell the local officials and they will find a way to solve it. The officials of the Han tribe are all practical people, because if they don't do anything, they will be punished by the leader!" While distributing steamed buns to the people behind, Xun Ge'er continued to publicize the situation of the Han tribe to the pregnant woman.
The other people who received the steamed buns also stood aside and listened carefully, because now the Xin tribe is completely gone, and they will all be people of the Han tribe in the future, but they don't know what kind of tribe the Han tribe is. What they can see now is that the Han tribe is very good at fighting.
The pregnant woman nodded happily after listening, and thanked Xun Ge'er again, and then took her eldest daughter to the porridge stall to eat meat porridge.
The dried meat brought by the Han tribe with the army must not be able to withstand so many people, but they have seized a lot of meat.
A large amount of dried meat and food, as well as many livestock, were found in the homes of several elders who had been designated to be killed. There were even more in Commander Xin's home.
They took out all the seized dried meat and chopped it up to make porridge for the people. They also eliminated some older or poorly bred livestock from the searched livestock and kept them all for the people and the army to cook. Anyway, it was a generous gift to others, and the Han tribe didn't feel bad at all.
As for the future, with a large-scale fishing industry, even if the Han tribe did not have any breeding projects, the sea could meet the meat needs of hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Han tribe.
The poor can only eat seafood every day! It's not impossible.
At the same time, when the local people were having breakfast, the Han soldiers who had already eaten long ago also began to set up the venue.
The location of the public trial was chosen in Qingquan Valley, where Commander Xin usually held sacrifices. It was a flat land halfway up the mountain. The area was very large and there was no problem accommodating a queue of tens of thousands of people.
However, the location of this venue is ironic. The place where the Xin tribe used to worship has now become the place to destroy the Xin tribe.
The soldiers quickly built a high platform and put on drums. The twenty cannons carried by the Tiger Guards were also parked in two rows on both sides of the venue.
The prisoners have been brought to the scene, waiting to be executed after their crimes are announced.
When the sun came out from above the valley, the people over there had almost finished their breakfast, so some people began to lead the people here.
"Where are they taking us?" Someone in the crowd asked the people around him in panic.
"I heard that there is going to be a meeting. I don't know what it is. It seems that the leader of the Han tribe is going to announce something." A young man who knows a little Chinese explained.
"Oh, then when can we go home? We have been here for several days, and I don't know what happened to my house. Alas!"
"This, it should be soon. It seems that after this meeting, we will be asked to go home. Yesterday at dusk, didn't the people of the Han tribe ask us to pack up? We were thinking, if it wasn't for going home, why would they ask us to pack up?"
"Yeah, I hope we can go back today. I don't know what the future will be like. I think those people from the Han tribe beat people very cruelly." "
Well, didn't the people of the Han tribe say that they should treat people differently? I heard that it was the people of the commander-in-chief's clan who took the initiative to attack the Han tribe, so the Han tribe came here to take revenge. It seems that the commander-in-chief and his people killed many people from the Han tribe at that time, otherwise they would not have run so far to take revenge, right?!"
A group of people talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the arranged meeting venue.
The original altar in the huge venue had been dismantled, and the same place had become a high platform made of wood. A row of chairs and tables were placed on the high platform, and a row of cowhide drums were placed on both sides. The Han army in iron armor stood on both sides with steel halberds in their hands, and the long team extended all the way to the open space below.
On both sides of the open space below the high platform, there were ten thick iron pipes, which looked very heavy, weighing at least a thousand pounds.
The people looked at it and didn't know what it was. They just thought that the Han tribe was playing some tricks, or maybe it was their unique ritual vessel.
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, when 30,000 or 40,000 men, women, old and young gathered in the venue, the stage began to blow trumpets and beat drums. The whole opening ceremony was very formal and grand.
After the drums were over, three generals wearing fish scale armor and red cloaks came to the front of the high platform and shouted loudly.
Of course, no one could hear what they shouted. After all, they were far away and there were no speakers or loudspeakers. But it didn't matter. The Han tribe had the black technology of human voice interpretation.
The soldiers who were originally standing on both sides of the venue began to relay the speeches of the generals on the stage in the local dialect.
"The public trial and execution meeting of the war criminals of the Xin tribe will begin now!"
There are two more chapters today. I am writing them now. I beg for rewards
