The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

At this time, Zhong Wen revealed all his plans.

But when Zhong Wen said this, the two of them were so shocked that they were dumbfounded on the spot. They didn't know whether the governor in front of him was a normal governor.

If Ye Family Village is really besieged, don't think about it, there will definitely be chaos.

Such a plan completely surpassed the two's original ideas, and even subverted their world cognition.

If Zhong Wen's order is really to be carried out, then it is impossible for anyone to enter and exit Ye Family Village, and even the order to shoot and kill is issued, which is enough to show how much Zhong Wen hates This is Ye Family Village.

Speaking of which, Zhong Wen had no choice.

Who made this Yejia Village a big clan in Yiqing County, and also controlled most of the grain in Yiqing County, resisting the order first, beating people later, and then inciting the villages to resist the order, This is already challenging the power of the state and county government.

"Don't, this matter is limited to the three of you and me. If anyone reveals it for a long time, you should know the consequences. This matter will be handled in this way. If anything happens, I, the governor, will be responsible."

Finally, Zhong Wen warned the two of them.

In the early morning of the second day, Lu Lindong led the soldiers who had arrived late, and began to assemble and headed for Yejia Village.

Afterwards, Wei Antu from Yiqing County also took more than 100 office servants to Yejia Village together.

At this time, Li Wei in Yiqing County even sent a lot of officials, officials, and staff from the Law Enforcement Department to post notices.

"There was a plague in Yejia Village? Why didn't I know? This is terrible. No wonder so many soldiers came to my Yiqing County yesterday. Daddy, don't go out casually these days."

"Plague? Oh my god, my daughter is still in Yejia Village, my daughter, woo woo woo woo."

"Go home quickly, go home quickly, this plague will kill many people, go home quickly."

"..."

At this time, in Yiqing County, when the notice was issued, the city was full of crazy words and crazy words, and many people began to return home, choosing not to go out as much as possible.

This is also stated in the announcement, try not to go out of the city, there are already many government officials in the city.

Zhong Wen, in order to suppress the local clan of the Ye family, disturbed the entire Yiqing County, and the disturbance was a little ugly.

Such a state of affairs, although already under Zhong Wen's control, has already caused people to panic, the incident of looting food has already begun to occur, and it has completely begun to escape from Zhong Wen's original control.

Although Zhong Wen could not issue this announcement, in order to prevent everyone in Yiqing County from having contact with Yejia Village, he had to choose such a method.

Besides, is Ye Family Village really that easy to seal?

It can't be sealed casually. This is not a Lifang like Chang'an City, but an ordinary village without a separation wall. You can leave Yejia Village in any direction.

Furthermore, Yejia Village and the three surrounding villages have a total of more than 3000 people. Even if there are about [-] soldiers in the Tongjun Mansion, plus about [-] government servants, they are only halfway to Yejia Village. number of people.

Even if there are more than 3000 people in the Ye clan, half of them are old, weak and young, but there are still nearly half of them men. If there is any turmoil, the government soldiers will probably not be able to resist it.

With [-] people against [-] people?

Zhong Wen didn't dare to think about it, even Lu Lindong didn't dare to think about it.

However, Zhong Wen was also betting that the old patriarch of the Ye clan would not dare to mess around. Even if Zhong Wen's village closure order was implemented, Zhong Wen could be sure that the old patriarch of the Ye clan would not dare to take up the sword.

After all, when you pick up the sword, the crime against the court has basically been fulfilled.

After Lu Lindong led 700 people over, he began to assign various intersections, and even erected a wooden board with notices on it.

When these government soldiers and government officials arrived, the people of Yejia Village had already seen it.

"What? There are sergeants besieging the village? What's going on? Hurry up and find out what happened."

When Ye Kuan, the patriarch of the Ye Clan, got such news, his heart was so shocked that he couldn't understand why there was such a thing that soldiers besieged the village.

Afterwards, some daring villagers ran towards the soldiers stationed at the intersection.

"Back, back, if you dare to charge forward, you will be shot." The guard captain saw a dozen people suddenly running from Yejia Village, and directly ordered the soldiers to draw their weapons to deal with emergencies.

"Soldiers, why did you surround my Yejia Village? What happened? Our Yejia Village didn't break any law."

"Look for yourself, if you dare to come within five zhang, the soldiers obey the order and shoot directly." The captain threw the wooden board over and shouted again.

[Come on for my great China, come on for Wuhan, specially write a chapter about closing villages and closing cities]

ps: Thank you literati Yidandan for tipping 500 coins, and thanks for Tudou Miao 25 ​​for tipping 100 coins!

Chapter 327 Ye Kuan Kneeled for Forgiveness

The dozen or so brave villagers of Yejia Village quickly picked up the boards and ran back to the village, not daring to stay in front of these soldiers for a long time, for fear that the bows and arrows in their hands would be shot out.

"Patriarch, patriarch, look, what is written on this sign? On the other side of the road, there are dozens of soldiers with swords and crossbows guarding them. We are not allowed to pass." The person holding the wooden sign The villagers came to the house where Ye Kuan was in a hurry, and said to Ye Kuan eagerly.

"What? Severe illness (illness)? When did my Ye Family Village get seriously ill? What's going on? What's going on?" The old man Ye saw the notice written on the wooden sign, and his heart trembled.

Wenyi, in this day and age, it's either all dead or waiting to die, there is no other possibility.

Unless, that person is a lucky person, otherwise, everything is useless, no matter how much medicine you take, it will not help.

In such an era of serious illness, there is no medicine to cure it, and it is even more impossible for a doctor to come to their village to treat it.

Doctors are also afraid of death, let alone when it comes to serious illnesses, no one is a fool, as long as they are not recruited by the imperial court, they will never go to these places with serious illnesses.

In ancient times, there was only one way for the court to control serious illnesses, and that was to block the entry and exit of everyone in the area, just like what Zhong Wen did at this time.

People and animals are not allowed to pass, no matter who is in this area, if one person comes out, it is estimated that more people will die outside.

But when Ye Kuan saw what was written on the wooden sign, he was really shocked beyond measure.

"Quickly, go and check if anyone in the village is sick, go quickly." Although Ye Kuan had read the notice on the wooden sign, he didn't think about the reason in time, and hurriedly gave instructions to the people present.

Not long after, those people returned to the main room of Ye Kuan's house.

"Patriarch, no one in the village is sick, let alone a serious illness, everyone is fine." One person reported to Ye Kuan.

"No one is sick?" Ye Kuan felt relieved after receiving such a response.

"Could it be that this is what the little governor is targeting my Ye family? Go, go to the intersection." Ye Kuan figured out the link here, raised his legs and walked outside the house.

……

"Back, back, the soldiers obey the order, if someone comes within five feet, you can shoot arrows at will." When the captain at the intersection saw hundreds of people walking towards them, his heart suddenly tensed up.

Although he didn't know whether what was written in this notice was true, even when he asked Lu Lindong, he only got a word of following the instructions.

But no matter what the notice says is true or not, they must guard at this intersection, and no one is allowed to pass through.

Serious illness is terrible, and he understands it very well in his heart, so it is normal for him to direct all the soldiers to follow orders.

"Dare to ask this general, may I ask who caused the serious illness in my Yejia village to be reported in the notice? Just now, the old man has inspected it. No one in my Yejia village was sick, and no one died. Why did you come here?" Talk about a serious illness? General, could I trouble you to ask your superior officer for instructions? Please ask your superior officer to come here."

After Naye Broadband brought hundreds of villagers over, he heard the warning from the captain, he really didn't dare to come within five feet, so he had to shout to the captain loudly.

"I'll just obey orders, you guys leave quickly, otherwise, we're going to shoot arrows." The captain looked at the old man who took the lead, and there was only one thought in his mind, that is, these people are not allowed to approach five people. Within ten feet, otherwise the arrow will be released.

"General, please help me, please help me to invite your superior officer, it's troublesome." Although Ye Kuan didn't dare to come within five feet, he still took a step forward and saluted the captain Said.

"Stand back, don't retreat within five breaths, all officers and men, listen to my order and draw your bow." The captain ignored what the old man said at all, seeing the old man dare to take a step forward, made his heart ache. I am also afraid of the contagion of this serious disease.

Seeing what the captain said, Ye Kuan quickly took a few steps back.

If he doesn't retreat, maybe these sergeants are really going to shoot arrows.

At this time, he just wanted to understand what was going on, and he wanted to see the superiors of these soldiers.

But his pleading still failed to impress the general, which made them have to retreat to Yejia Village, summoned some village elders in the village, and began to discuss countermeasures.

"Patriarch, this matter must have been ordered by the governor. He saw that my Yejia Village did not respect the well-digging order issued by him, so he called our Yejia Village a serious illness. After that, our Yejia Village will never recover. , Patriarch, you have to find a way quickly."

An elder from Ye Family Village said anxiously to Ye Kuan.

"Ah Er, hurry up and take people to visit other villages, and let their village chiefs and elders come to my Yejia Village, hurry up." Ye Kuan ordered a man after hearing what the village elder said.

"Son, if you bully my Ye family like this, I will definitely let you die. Come and prepare a pen and ink. I want to write a letter to Chang'an." Ye Family Village has been brought to its knees.

If he can't survive this catastrophe safely, the future of his Ye Family Village may be weighed down, and it is even more likely that at some point in the future, it will cease to exist.

Ye Kuan wrote the letter in less than half a quarter of an hour.

On the paper, Zhong Wen, the governor, and the officials of the county government were written like pigs and dogs.

If Zhong Wen saw this letter, maybe he would really kill Ye Kuan with a single knife.

He said that in order to seize his Ye family's property, the governor of Lizhou was going to murder his Ye clan, and more than a hundred people had already died.

With such a big hat on Zhong Wen's head, if this letter really got into the hands of his grandson, it is estimated that Chang'an would be shocked again.

"Patriarch, patriarch, it's not good, it's not good." At this time, the man named Ah Er rushed back, shouting as he ran.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Ah Er returning to the main room, Ye Kuan's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't know what Ah Er said was bad.

"Patriarch, all the intersections leading to the second village, the third village, and the fourth village are guarded by soldiers. Each has a bow and arrow in his hand. We can't do without Yejia Village. Also, I went to the top of the mountain to watch and found that there are soldiers on the side of the second village. Watch it." Ah Er hurriedly responded to Ye Kuan.

"What?" After hearing Ah Er's response, Ye Kuan fainted as soon as he finished asking.

Following Ye Kuan's coma, the whole Ye Family Village began to panic.

Whether it is Yejia Village, or the second, third and fourth villages of their Ye Family Clan, it is basically the same, and all intersections are blocked.

If you want to get news, no one is allowed to leave. If you want to leave, go to the mountains and forests. Besides, the mountains near these villages can be described as high mountains and dense forests.

Although it is possible to leave, not everyone walks in this mountain forest like a monkey. What's more, Lu Lindong also sent some soldiers to watch on the hills. shoot.

Speaking of Yiqing County at this time, after the county seat was blocked, all the villages, as usual, were busy digging wells and busy.

As for the other five villages that day, even though those villages hadn't arrived at the county government office, they were still in a state of panic at this moment, and the days they lived felt like years.

It takes a lot of courage to dare to disobey the order of the governor.

However, no matter how brave you are, you have to bear the consequences.

Although the five villages did not have any official sent to urge them to carry out the well digging order, they also knew that if there was a severe drought next year, their villages might lose their crops due to the severe drought, and the government would not reduce taxes. , in the end, it is possible to die and disperse, and the whole village will cease to exist.

How to choose in the end depends on how these villages choose. This is not about one person, but about the future of the entire village.

With the siege and blockade of Yiqing County and the start of the siege of Yejia Village, the days passed day by day.

In a flash, it has been nearly half a month.

And Zhong Wen, the governor, has been sitting in Yiqing County to prevent things from changing suddenly and not ending.

At this time, Ye Family Village can be described as gloomy.

The closure of the village for nearly half a month has already turned Yejia Village into a serious sick area.

"Patriarch, my family has no salt, if there is no salt, how will my family live?"

"Patriarch, my baby has been ill for five days. If we don't send him to the city for treatment, my baby will die. Patriarch, please."

"Patriarch, my grandmother is about to lose her health..."

"Patriarch, after my wife kicked the village dog two days ago and was bitten, her wounds are rotten. If she doesn't give treatment, she will really die."

"Patriarch,..."

Many villagers in Ye Family Village began to gather in front of the patriarch Ye Kuan's house, complaining and pleading to the patriarch Ye Kuan.

These villagers already knew why the siege of the village started, and the rumors in the village had already spread throughout the village.

And among them, some people began to rumor that Ye Kuan, the patriarch, wanted to make money with this well-digging order, but these rumors were only spread in private, but they did not dare to share them with others. This is the prequel of Ye Kuan's close relatives, otherwise, I don't know what will happen.

At this time, Ye Kuan lived a life that felt like years.

The letter, he couldn't pass it on, let alone the letter, a dozen people were shot and wounded by some soldiers.

The ten people who were injured were also because of Ye Kuan's unwillingness to send a dozen of his close relatives to the outside world through the forest.

Unexpectedly, the dozen or so people didn't even know that there were soldiers guarding even in the mountains and forests. After the warning was ignored, those soldiers directly shot and wounded the dozen or so people.

After that, Ye Kuan never dared to send anyone to leave Ye Family Village again.

And he also went to the intersection several times to ask to see the county magistrate and the governor, and the only reply he got was to back off.

"Patriarch, we beg you."

"Patriarch..."

As the villagers of Ye Family Village began to kneel down to beg Ye Kuan, Ye Kuan also began to soften.

These are the villagers of their Yejia Village, and they are all relatives.

Kneeling him as the patriarch, although it is okay to say, these sick or injured villagers must be treated, otherwise, they will really die next.

"Get up, get up, I'll beg those soldiers again." Ye Kuan was frightened, he was afraid that if his Ye Family Village really wanted to besieged like this, there would be no one left.

Afterwards, Ye Broadband led several village elders towards the intersection.
