Chapter 66: Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period (5) Compassion and Love for the People Mi Wenjing (1st update…)

The main quest of the 3000 reserve forces is to survive for 60 days, and the side quest is to join the army in Chuyang City.

When the agents entered the dungeon, they knew that they only had three choices: first, escape from Chuyang City; second, join the army; third, join the army and then escape from Chuyang City.

The agents planned to try the first two options, although they only knew Chu language, and it was more dangerous to escape during the war. As for the last option, which would damage their reputation, they would act according to circumstances.

It would be absurd for peasant slaves to join the army in the Spring and Autumn Period. In ancient times, only soldiers had the right to go to the battlefield, but it was different during the Warring States Period. The population increased, and all countries preferred to use human wave tactics when fighting.

This was the spring of the year.

An ancient book says: "In ancient times, the emperors foraged in spring, hunted in autumn, and hunted in winter: they went out to the suburbs in all four seasons to show their military prowess to the world. Now that the world is in turmoil, it is

time to use the fields and hunting to teach military skills." Every year, the spring foraging, summer seedling harvesting, autumn hunting, and winter hunting are the main days for soldiers to practice martial arts and hunting. In recent years, these four old customs have also become recruiting customs. The day for recruiting soldiers.

But this year, the King of Chu died and the Lord of Chuyang City was away. In previous years, he personally held the spring search ceremony. Therefore, the spring search that should have started earlier this year has not been completed yet.

If they want to join the army, they now have two ways to go.

First, find Meng Sheng who has the military token, but Meng Sheng is a minister of the King of Yangcheng and will not take in enslaved people with unclear backgrounds. This is treason. The chance of Wang Qi, a commoner, being favored by the Mo Sect is almost zero.

Second, find the most respected person in Chuyang City. The noble person——Mi Wenjing, the eldest daughter of Lord Yangcheng. If this is Li Jing, the number one survivor, the system is linking the 3,000 reservists with the number one survivor.

That’s why Wang Qi recommended himself.

Ye Mo took the olive branch, looked around at the lively environment, and said loudly: "Father always thought about the people of Chuyang City before he left. Now that father is gone, the people of Yangcheng still remember his kindness. Remember to defend Chuyang City for him."

Wang Qi:

"...Fuck, the boss is much more sincere than me!"

"Thank you, young lady. May I ask, young lady, as spring is almost over, when will this year's spring recruitment be held?" Wang Qi chose to continue to be a tool and recite.

"'On the ninth month, when Yi Chou was young, the talented teacher, Wang Zu Jiang's internal historian friend Yi Dong Ge wore a black robe and a red robe. Dong Ge bowed his head. Wang Zu Jiang Xiu...'@, the queen followed the King of Zhou to the war, rewarded the commander-in-chief, and added bricks and tiles to the prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty. She is a role model for women."

Ye Mo recited a historical allusion he had read yesterday, and combined it with a long sigh: "The situation in the world is in chaos now. My father often said that the spring recruitment is a major event in Chuyang City and the major event of the Chu State. It cannot be delayed. An unfilial daughter should help my father pay more attention to this matter. Someone prepare a car. Let's go to the farm now to take a look. It can also be regarded as worrying for my father."

Wang Qi:

"..."

He didn't understand what the big man said, but his purpose of stopping the car and recommending himself should have been achieved.

Ye Mo:

...Silly!

The guards and maids who had received temporary training this morning were much smarter. They immediately knelt down and shouted that the young lady was filial. The people didn't understand, but the herd effect also made them kneel down and praise the young lady.

Ye Mo interacted with the people of Chuyang City with shame, allowing the people to truly see the leader's "compassion and love for the people". It's not worth it if you do it too much, but once in a while, the harvest is quite rich.

I roughly guessed the intention of the national team, but she was more greedy. She wanted the power of spring recruitment and the favor of Meng Sheng. It would be best if Meng Sheng gave up the power. Only by giving and taking can they understand each other.

The above is all learned from Manager Xie. There are differences between ancient rulers and modern leaders, but there are also similarities.

Confused Wang Qi: "???"

Did the boss graduate from the drama academy?

…

Ye Mo remained calm, got in the car and headed towards the village.

As a civilian who recommended himself as a driver, Wang Qi was given the opportunity to walk with the car, walking outside the family guards on all sides.

They were both survivors, but the big boss took the car and a bunch of younger brothers were there to protect him, while he could only follow behind the big boss's car, walking with difficulty. We are all human beings, so why is there such a big difference between us?

The scenery in ancient times was quite beautiful.

On the way to Chuzhuang, there were blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and clear water, and green trees. After seeing the polluted environment of the city, it was naturally a pleasant surprise to see the original natural scenery at first glance.

When we were about to reach the farm, we saw rows of shabby thatched houses that were not poetic, the desolate and poor land, and the serfs with withered faces, and we felt that modern society was good again.

It is the spring ploughing season. All serfs over five years old must have work to do. Those over ten years old must go to the fields. Most of them are men, but there are also one-fifth of them are women.

The survivors are still recognizable among the native serfs, but their performance is slightly different from what Ye Mo imagined.

That's because in one night, except for the dead, the remaining survivors were forced to grow up by reality.

...

Worn and dirty shorts and long pants, dishevelled hair and dirty faces, yellow teeth and thin bodies, the serfs knew their status and fate when they were born. They were diligent and humble, and they might work hard all their lives.

But the survivors are different.

They have been educated as human beings since they were young, and some of them even grew up enjoying comfort and pampering. They don't necessarily do housework, but they are sent to inexplicable places to suffer.

Two meals a day were not enough to satisfy them. When they entered the space, the first thing they received was not memories, but the rumbling of their stomachs. Fortunately, they had dinner as soon as they arrived, so they didn't starve to death.

But what was dinner?

There was no rice, no noodles, only a bowl of tasteless bean soup with wild vegetables and bean leaves, which was a bit prickly, and an unknown wild fruit soup that tasted sour and astringent.

Only the two leaders of the peasant slaves were qualified to eat rice bran and wild vegetables alone, and unlimited soybeans.

"Is this for human consumption?"

"Pigs eat better than this!"

"!!"

Everyone says that costume idol dramas don't follow logic. Can the heroines, heroes, and supporting actors in the drama grow their brains? What else can they do besides falling in love? But reality is more dramatic than TV dramas.

They don't even know how to fall in love!

As soon as they saw the food last night, some of the stupid ones jumped out and even tried to incite other serfs to rise up and overthrow the ruthless and indifferent feudal ruling class.

Agents: "..."

Slaves: "!!!"

Except for the other brainless survivors, the peasant slaves all looked at them with either shock or crazy eyes.

Several people immediately sneaked out to complain. It was not clear whether there was a reward for such a thing, but it would definitely leave a good impression in front of the steward and help their lives. There were

also guards who served as peasant soldiers in the manor. They were all born as peasants and worked in the fields during their busy farming season. It

was not that the agents did not want to save people, but they had the mission given by the country. In this case, the mission came first, and the agents could only try their best to prevent other survivors from being incited.

The two leading troublemakers were still talking nonstop there.

Among them was a middle-aged man who was frightened by Ye Mo's attack in space. They might think that they were holding the script of the novel Tom Sue, and they could rise up today and unify the world tomorrow.

Soon, after the serf manager knew about this, in less than half an hour, he asked more than 20 soldiers to guard the farm.

The serfs knelt down one after another.

The agents reacted quickly, too. They knelt down one after another with the serfs. Some survivors did the same, while others were hesitant.

The remaining survivors were shouting, mocking, and inciting. They had not figured out the situation yet.

The soldiers did not need to reason with the serfs at all. Five soldiers stepped forward and drew their knives or swords.

A flash of white light, a click, and a beheading!

After a short scream of pain, blood spurted out. Five bodies were still standing there. Their heads had flown out to the ground, their facial features were twisted and distorted, and some of them were still open-eyed when they died.

The bloody tragedy was played out before their eyes, and the smell of blood spread in the air. The survivors were simply stunned.

Some of them sat down with weak legs, some were stiff and motionless, some had unknown liquid flowing down their trousers, and they were actually scared to urinate, and some fell to their knees.

They were all born and raised in peacetime, and some may not even have time to experience death. The psychological impact of suddenly facing a murderous battlefield can be imagined.

What overthrow of the ruler, what great achievements, what unification of seven countries, they no longer have the courage to hate.

The farm manager looked at the chaos with satisfaction, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Is there anyone who is dissatisfied?"

At this moment, there was silence.

After thanking the soldiers, the farm manager ordered other serfs to drag down the survivors who were not kneeling or kneeling in a mess. They had to prepare manure for tomorrow.

Since the Zhou Dynasty divided the land, the various princes began to focus on the breeding and farming occupations other than wild animals, wild fruits, and wild vegetables. With a little exploration, farming was also improving.

The Lord of Yangcheng even set up agricultural officials. The farm had managers who specialized in pest control, seed selection, and manure management.

This manure includes human and animal feces, legume straw ash, etc., but they are just simply piled up.

This kind of dirty and tiring work is very suitable for troublemakers. After working tonight, they still have to go to the fields tomorrow.

This night, the survivors who worked all night long in dirty and smelly physical work and were despised and whipped finally understood the cruelty of the world; the survivors who slept in the house, including two or three agents, had nightmares.

The next day, the work continued.

The agents learned any skills quickly. Before long, they were no different from the slaves, and they could even improve their methods. They were particularly good at working in the fields, which won the attention of the managers.

Wang Qi's identity happened to have had contact with the farm, and the memory given to him also contained the existence of agents. The two successfully contacted each other on the morning of the second day, and analyzed everything according to the environment.

Only then did they stop the car today.

As for the other survivors, their work must not be as good as that of the local serfs. Some people did not sleep all night, and did not eat dinner yesterday or breakfast today. One by one, they almost collapsed under the high pressure.

Two rounds of internal testing, different hardships.

...

This is the scene that Ye Mo saw.

The carriage was still approaching the farm, and most of the soldiers guarding the manor were also from the farm. They and several small stewards of the manor saw the noble lady in the car.

They immediately gave orders in an orderly manner, and the serfs were asked to kneel down one by one, especially the serfs who were disobedient last night, who were the key targets of greeting.

Then, he quickly ran to the front of the farm. As a soldier, he had to show courtesy to his superior.

The car stopped.

Ye Mo waved his hand to refuse the maid's help, got off the car by himself, and said after standing still: "No need to be polite, my king is not here. Today I am just helping him to check the spring ploughing this year. Don't forget the spring ploughing work because of false courtesy."

"Thank you, young lady!"
