Chapter 454: Clear Walls

Huang Qianshan rushed out and got on the carriage and headed straight for Deyue Tower, and went to find Zheng Zhi. These military men did not obey his orders, and only by bringing Zheng Zhi over could this matter be resolved.

Even Huang Qianshan thought that Zheng Zhi could help him solve this problem, at least this Zheng Gong was still polite and polite in front of him. Huang Qianshan really didn't think much about this young Mr. Zheng, who was also a kind-hearted and "smiling tiger".

Before Huang Qianshan could reach Deyue Tower, he met his subordinates halfway and were walking towards him, talking and laughing.

Huang Qianshan ran to the front and hurriedly asked, "Where is Mr. Zheng?"

Seeing Huang Qianshan rushing over, these people hurriedly bowed their hands to see him, and one of them replied: "After the banquet just now, Mr. Zheng has gone out of the city to take a horse."

Huang Qianshan asked again: "How did the banquet end so quickly? Haven't you persuaded me to drink a few more?"

"Then Mr. Zheng said that the prefect is not here today, and he will be separated after eating, and said that he will be together again in two days."

When Huang Qianshan heard this, he ignored these people and got on the carriage and rushed out of the city.

The city gate was still open, and there were many iron armored soldiers guarding the door. Huang Qianshan was running towards his carriage, but no one came forward to stop him.

When Huang Qianshan ran out of the city and headed straight for the military camp.

As soon as he approached the military camp, he was blocked by a team of patrolmen.

Huang Qianshan quickly lifted the curtain of the car and shouted: "The Hejian Prefect is here, please give way quickly. Our government has urgent matters to discuss with Gong Zheng."

A military man came forward and said, "It turned out that the prefect Shangguan had arrived in person. The young general had seen him. I don't know if Shangguan knew the order tonight. The young general said, "Iron Horse and Glacier River!"

Huang Qianshan didn't know what was wrong with the password, so he just said: "Stop talking, make a quick way, I don't have time to chat with you."

The military man looked a little embarrassed and bowed and said, "Shangguan Rong reported that the young general was walking under the command of Xianggong Zheng twice. He really dared not neglect the military orders. Without a command, he really cannot give up this road tonight."

Huang Qianshan has not been in charge of the army, but Hejian Prefecture was originally a military center. However, Huang Qianshan never took these military men seriously. In addition to food and wages, he never worried about military men. However, it was only today that he truly realized the power of these military men to "disturbate nonsense" and asked: "Where are you a military general from the prefecture? How dare you block our way?"

"Return to Shangguan's words, the young general is under General Runing Huyan. He dare not block Shangguan's way. However, the army is different. He really dares to joke about military orders. I also ask Shangguan to forgive his crimes."

The military man said that he had walked under Zheng Zhi twice, and Hu Yanzhuo was under Zheng Zhi twice. He was obviously advised to guard the military camp tonight. In the final analysis, Zheng Zhi wanted to hide and did not want to see the Hejian prefect Huang Qianshan.

At this time, Huang Qianshan could not feel that there was something wrong with the matter. He seemed to have been put on by someone.

Huang Qianshan walked out of the carriage and stood in front of him. Seeing dozens of military men in front of him, he thought about it carefully and became more angry the more he thought about it.

He walked a few more steps left and right, and the suspicion and verification in his heart were almost the same. He shouted, "If I don't enter the military camp, you can go and call Zheng Zhi out, and then he said that the Hejian Prefect Huang Qianshan was waiting for him at the camp gate."

"Shangguan is really embarrassing the young general. What a person, Zheng Xianggong? He has 100,000 soldiers under his command. How can a young general be qualified to see him? He said that General Hu Yan did not dare to disturb him this night, and Shangguan forgives his crime." The military man was a little flexible in his mind and found enough excuses, so he said that he was not qualified to see him. It sounded a bit reasonable for outsiders. If the soldiers under Zheng Zhi heard this, they would immediately know that this was an excuse. How could the military situation in the camp not be reported to the commander?

As for the Great Wall, it has been abandoned for many years, and the Yumen Pass of Jiayuguan is still above the Xixia territory west of Tengli. For the Song Dynasty, these city walls that have resisted foreign tribes for thousands of years have long been useless. Only by completely destroying the Dangxiang and repairing the Great Wall can it become a barrier again.

In Lingzhou City, 20,000 to 30,000 local Han people and 4,000 brigades were stationed. Even if the declining Dangxiang attacked the city, he would definitely be taking things out.

Zhong Shidao raised his troops to recruit soldiers and recruited his former generals. It has been five or six days since Weizhou (Pingliang, Jingyuan, Chongxin, and Huating) has only recruited more than one thousand people. Weizhou itself has not many old soldiers. Qingzhou (Qingyang) has recruited more than three thousand people, and Yuanzhou (Zhenyuan) has less than a thousand people.

Zhong Shidao really puts his hopes in Yan'an Prefecture, which is the place where the Zong family has been managed for generations. It is the base camp of Zong family and the place with the most elite troops in Zong family.

However, the old soldiers recalled made Zhong Shidao a little disappointed, which was even more miserable than Zhong Shidao imagined. It turned out that many of the heroes with swelling muscles were now skinny, and only a very small number of them had the same body as before.

In the northwest, being a soldier is a living. Even if Zhong Shidao treats him well, he still supports the whole family and is not very surplus. Once he loses this to make a living, the government will set a piece in the barren mountains and fields to ask these people to open up land and be self-sufficient, but how can they be self-sufficient?

The method of settlement is feasible in the south of the Lianghuai River. To reach the barren land on the northwest border today, unless you buy good land from wealthy families to release farming, it will be even more difficult to cultivate barren mountains and wild lands and support the whole family.

However, those close friends in Tokyo did not know the hardships. They did not give money to buy land, but even a single order made it difficult for local governments to make things difficult for local governments. They could not solve the root of the problem even if they were responsible.

If we change the angle, it is only because Zheng Zhi won too much in this battle. Many people say that raising enemies is self-respecting, which is actually beneficial for these military families in the northwest and their military men to release the Dangxiang.

There are always these pros and cons, and neither method is good. After all, the people suffer.

After Liu Fa and Zhe Keqiu arrived from the north, Zhong Shizhong also came from Qinzhou. Four of them sat down. The left and right generals were twenty or thirty, but Yang Keshi was still on the way.

Liu Fa did not say much about the scene and said straight: "Huangzhou (Minhe, Ledu) came to report, and the Dangxiang army was gathering in the Gansu Military Office (Zhangye). It will be only more than a month for me to wait. Once Dangxiang passes through the desert, Lingzhou will be in danger, and I am afraid that it will be lost again."

Liu Fa's words were full of worries. When Zhong Shidao heard this, he thought for a moment and asked: "If Lingzhou is difficult to defend, we will stick to Xishou and Jingsai City. If it really doesn't work, then retreat to Huizhou New City, wait until the general is ready and then go to Huizhou to fight."

Master Zhong hurriedly said, "Brother, I'm afraid I can't explain this to Tokyo. I'm afraid I'll lose so much city as soon as I get into the fight, so I'm afraid I'll be offended."

"Oh... how could I not know that I would be punished? Now there is no other way. If I put all the soldiers in a city, they will be consumed by then. What are the decisive battles to retreat to the enemy? The newly obtained Dangxiang land will be like a waste of money. There is no amount of governance of the people or production. It is better to abandon it than to stand up. When the army is completed and the battle is decided, it is time for Dangxiang to destroy the country." Zhong Shidao's words showed ruthlessness.

Liu Fa nodded after hearing this, saying, "Winter is approaching, and Dangxiang people will inevitably be unsustainable in food and grass. So he moved all these cities together, and even if he could not take them away, he would shoot and bury them together. He was so strong and clear that he would wait for some time to fight again. Dangxiang would inevitably lack food. This method is very good, I agree."

Everyone reached a consensus, and then they all divided the money to recruit old subordinates and began to strengthen the strategy of clearing the world.

But it is not unreasonable that Master Zhong is worried about. Things will not go as smoothly as people think. We can only wait and see.
