Chastity Layman

In the past, they didn't even have their own houses, so they could only live in Datu's house. They could find a corner to sleep at night, and they had no private property. But now the Qin people actually want to allocate their land for them, and officially grant them citizenship. This seems to them Come on, the identity of this citizen should be the former Alipina Mamahei, the same as the tribute payer.

With houses and fields, they were no longer enslaved. They were so excited that they shed tears of happiness.

The excited Alipin contributors and slaves all cheered.

Next, the election of village chiefs, deputy village chiefs, township captains, village chiefs, security chiefs, and armor chiefs were also very active and quick.

Shan Sili stayed in Maye Village for three days. During these three days, while transporting a boatload of Mahalika and Tiwama from Maye Village back to San Francisco, he also transported the original Datu and his warriors from the village to San Francisco. property removed.

And Jia Wu was responsible for clearing up the land, dividing the land and settling down.

The fields in Maye Village were measured again according to the Tang ruler, and then registered and distributed. The best part of the land is of course reserved as public land, and these Alipins have no objection, and even think it should be so.

Then the remaining fields were distributed to Alipins.

Whether they were former tribute payers or slaves in the past, they are now Maya villagers under the city of San Francisco, and the land is divided according to the head.

In fact, Maye Village has no shortage of land. This is a fertile estuary plain, but it is not easy to reclaim wasteland. After all, even if it is slash-and-burn farming that burns wasteland, in the absence of tools and livestock, the land that each person can cultivate is limited.

In the past, Datu’s land policy in Maye Village was that no matter whether you opened up wasteland or piled up wasteland, as long as you planted the land, he had to charge one-tenth of the land rent, and he would collect whatever he planted. Field harvest.

"These people need better farm tools, seeds, and cattle." Jia Wu traveled around for a few days and learned a lot about this place.

"They generally use the local dwarf buffaloes to cultivate the land, but these buffaloes are like sheep, and they generally lack iron farm tools. They mainly cultivate rice, but the planting technology is still very backward. They mainly live broadcast, and even transplant seedlings. No, the output of the field is very low. Fortunately, there are many lands here, and they can grow it casually for fun, and they can also get good harvests. In addition, they also grow abaca, and they can use the outer layer of coarse hemp to make hemp rope and the inner layer of fine hemp to make hemp cloth. This efficiency is average."

"In the past, Maye Village would also dry its own salt, catch fish, salvage pearls, etc., but I feel that it is not worthwhile."

Jia Wu suggested that in the future, let the villagers here concentrate on planting rice and abaca, and teach them to grow some sugarcane, etc., and then stop making salt, pearls, and hemp. It is a waste of time. They can bring salt, cloth, etc. Shipped for sale.

In this way, Maye Village becomes a pure grain and abaca plantation place.

"We bring farm tools, livestock and even seeds, salt, cloth, etc., and exchange them for food, abaca, etc., so that they can be tightly attached to us."

The drying efficiency of Qinjia San Francisco Salt Factory is very high, and the price of the salt is not high. Compared with the salt made by the villagers of Maye, the cost difference is too big.

Jia Wu believed that it would be beneficial to preserve this hemp leaf village and make them an agricultural plantation village under San Francisco in the future. Not only could tax on agricultural products be collected, but also conscripts could be collected, not to mention that through the sale of commodities such as salt cloth and agricultural tools, it would be easy to In exchange for a large amount of agricultural products from here.

Shan Sili thinks that these people are not Tang people after all, and they are not reliable, but the current arrangement is indeed better than transporting them all.

If all the people are transported away, the village will be abandoned, and the fields will also be abandoned.

"As long as we can manage Maye Village well, then I believe that after seeing the changes in other Barangai villages, or everyone's housing estates, we will go to recruit them in the future, and the resistance will not be so great. "

Three days passed quickly.

The boat to San Francisco is back again, time to go.

Maye Village has now completed the registration of households and naturalization, and the work of dividing land into households. The villagers have also elected village leaders and completed the arrangement of Li Bao Jia Neighborhood.

A village brave team of 200 people was even pulled up to replace the old Mahalika, who was responsible for taking turns to guard the village and maintain law and order.

The village chief waited reluctantly.

They begged the Qin family to leave a Ratu in the village.

Now that the Qin family has all withdrawn, they always feel uneasy. They are afraid that things will repeat again, and the fields they have now been allocated will be taken away again.

It would be much more at ease if there was a Latu who was entrusted by the Qin family here.

"Don't worry, you are now villagers of Maye Village, San Francisco City, Qindao, and members of the Qin family. If you have anything to do, you can just come to San Francisco to report. I have left a boat for you."

The village head was full of worry, "Latu Masur, who was on the opposite side, was killed here. I am afraid that their family will retaliate. They are powerful, and Maye Village is not an opponent."

"When we go back this time, we will destroy the Barangay of Masur by the way, and then their side will be the same as here."

The village head immediately expressed excitedly that the Maye villagers are willing to organize young and strong to fight together.

"You are not soldiers, you should stay and farm."

However, the village chief patted his chest faithfully and insisted on joining the battle.

Jia Wu smiled and said to Shan Sili, "Second brother, look, these people are quite simple."

"Hmph, this guy knows a lot."

"If he doesn't know the face, is the second brother going to replace him?"

"Needless to say, why do you want him to be the village chief if you don't have any discernment or loyalty?"

The two laughed.

Shan Sili loudly praised the loyalty of the village head and other village cadres, and then reluctantly said that since everyone is so loyal and enthusiastic, it is not easy for him to refuse everyone's enthusiasm.

Therefore, it was finally decided to let the two hundred villages of Maye Village gather bravely and follow them across the sea to conquer Masur's Barangay.

early morning.

Several galleons carrying 500 elite security guards from the San Francisco security team and 200 maya village warriors headed for Masur Barangay, a hundred miles away.

First sail westward along the north coast of Mindoro Island, pass by the vicinity of the later Puerto Galera, turn to the north, sail into Batangas Bay, and arrive at Barangay near the mouth of the river.

This time, Shan Sili's attack plan was simple.

Kill it directly.

The cavalry raided first, and then the sword and shield soldiers and archers followed.

Barangay in Masur is the largest barangay in this area, with more than 2,000 households and more than 10,000 people. This is no longer a simple agricultural settlement, but has become a well-known port and trading town. , owns some processing industries, and attracts many surrounding people to trade.

Masur has a fleet of more than 20 ships, including five large ships over seven feet long, who often go out to sea for trade and pirates, and he has the most family members and soldiers.

It's just that compared to other Barangays, for the Qin family who have crossed the river, such a little strength is not worth mentioning.

A random coastal county in the Central Plains, isn't it better than this?

Only the simple wooden fence wall is defenseless.

Shan Sili chose to make a surprise attack in the early morning.

The sky was slightly bright, and Barangay was still asleep, and the security team's boat approached quietly...

There was no suspense in the battle. Although Ma Suer had died in Maye on the other side of the sea, the people here didn't know about it, and they didn't know anything about the great changes that had taken place on the other side of the sea in the past few days.

With the speed of the Masur Barangay sailboat, it would normally take them almost three days to reach Maye, so after only three days, no one would think of any accidents.

The cavalry quickly blocked all sides of the village, and then the sword and poker players climbed over the fence and entered the village, opened the village gate, and led the troops in.

Maya Village Yongren has a wooden shield, an axe, and a spear.

This is the weapon given to them by the security team.

The village head led these village braves, and in order to prove their loyalty and courage, they rushed into the village first, and they showed very good explosive power.

Rushed into the village, like a tiger into a flock of sheep, pounced on the sleeping thatched huts.

Piercing with spears, slashing with axes, and blocking with shields, three village braves fight side by side.

The security guards happily followed behind, holding bows and crossbows to support them with long-distance shooting.

In the twilight of dawn, the village was full of shouts of killing.

Although there were many fighters in Masur Village, it was unexpected at this time. Many people were still asleep, and they didn't know what happened in a hurry. There was no time to gather, and many people were directly blocked in the house.

A person has to face the siege of several people, and there are even occasional backstabbing attacks.

While killing people, Maya Cunyong didn't forget to rob. He had to go with the swords and weapons he liked, or the valuables in the house.

However, the discipline of the security team is strict. Before the battle is over, they will not search for trophies, let alone fight each other for trophies.

Like wolves, they are focused and fierce.

At dawn, Shan Sili sat in the hall of the big house belonging to Masur, listening to the battle report with a smile.

"These village braves were originally tribute payers and slaves, and they didn't receive much training. It's already very good to have such an outstanding performance today. As for fighting for spoils and seizing them privately, it's normal."

"However, there must be some discipline. If you don't have rules, you can't make a square. Tell the village chief that all the trophies that were hidden last night must be brought out. Of course, I will not treat them badly. Every village brave who participated in the war will Got a reward."

"The rules have already been stated. If anyone wants to hide the booty, or even commit adultery and murder, then I will enforce the military law and kill without mercy."

The village chief was startled when he received the message, and quickly sent someone to call Maya Village Yongdu back, shouted and cursed, ordered everyone to take out all the hidden things, and told them to sit obediently and not go out again up.

Some people were reluctant, and the village chief is also a ruthless person. After a search, all he caught was a big kick, and his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. "If you want to die, don't get us involved!"

Some Xiangyong were very unconvinced, feeling that they were not allowed to grab anything after working so hard, and they were full of resentment, but the security team came over and brought them a lot of pigs, cattle and wine, saying it was a reward, and a lot of extra money Waiting for things, "These are also rewards for you, share them among yourself."

"The battle is over. Everyone seals their knives. They are not allowed to go out to rob, let alone rape and murder. Anyone who violates the law will be executed immediately!"

The security team took control of the village, and the next step was to take the Mahalika fighters and Tiva horses away, publicly execute the adult males of Masur's family, and take some Mahalika Card's team leader cut in half.

The remaining Alipin tributes and slaves were all granted the status of citizens of San Francisco, and then divided the house and land, and became naturalized.

Maye Village ate and drank bravely for three days, helped for a few days, and then was sent back to Maye Village with many rewards.

After Shan Sili and Jia Wu dealt with Masur Barangay, they also sailed back to San Francisco.
