Chapter 408 Yang Weizhong Selling Horses

Chapter 408 Yang Weizhong sells his horse

Chapter 408 Yang Weizhong sells his horse

Although Shi Chuan asked Lin Chong about this, Lin Chong could not answer. He turned to Han Shizhong and signaled with his eyes.

Han Shizhong thought for a while and replied: "It is not easy for a large army to cross the river. It takes at least fifteen days to cross the river if 200,000 troops cross the river, even if 10,000 people a day, it will take at least fifteen days. With the help of the military supplies, it is probably impossible to cross the river in a month."

"That is to say, before this, we cannot count on the forces on the north bank of the river..." Shi Chuan pondered for a moment and immediately ordered: "Our army will move camp from tomorrow - don't set up a battalion outside this water camp, and the defense in the original camp was transferred to General Xin-"

Xin Xingzong is about to take over as the third general of Liangzhe Road. He has the largest official position among all the generals, so it is appropriate to hand over the camp to him.

After this order, Xin Xingzong was happy - Shi Changqing had just occupied the camp for a long time, and he hastened to give up the camp now. Wouldn't he let himself take over and plunder? He happily bowed, fearing that he was behind, answering: "Dare not to obey the order of the Lord."

Lin Chong agreed with this order. Haizhou regiment training is used to fight hard battles and fight hard battles. Now he has to scatter all over the place to supervise the prisoners. How can he take care of the number of people in Haizhou regiment training? These brainwashed believers don’t think they are docile now. If Fang Qifu came to "respond" when he came, then the Haizhou regiment training will be destroyed by the "the vast ocean of people's war."

Moreover, in this camp, Haizhou Troupe is responsible for supplying 100,000 prisoners' food. It's okay to say that the selected prisoners will be guaranteed in the future. However, as the selected prisoners are transported away in batches, the remaining prisoners will become more and more desperate. If they are a little dissatisfied with their food and drink, they will take the opportunity to get angry... Who is stupid enough to bear this burden?

Moreover, the essence of the camp has been transported away by Shizhi, and the rest is optional. At this time, the camp was out of the camp and set up another camp - Lin Chong fully believed that with the artillery fire of the Haizhou regiment training and the lack of internal risks, even if it was besieged by a 100,000 army, the Haizhou regiment training could hold its own camp.

"Since that's the case, sir, it's better to do it tomorrow..." Lin Chong bowed and asked for instructions.

"What to do?" As soon as Lin Chong finished speaking, Xu Ning leisurely opened the curtain and walked in. Xu Ning, who had been trekking for a long time, had no dusty smell at all. The guy's clothes were neat and clean, his boots were polished, and there was no sweat on his face. He waved the whip casually, and he was respectful to Lin Chong's existence. When he entered the tent, he just bowed casually, and his eyes lit up immediately, and he shouted: "It's great to have meat to eat. I'll go all the way, and I'll starve me to kill."

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ning turned slightly, and the curtain of the tent was lifted again, revealing several heads - all the accountants of the staff team. When they saw that there were many people in the house, they immediately shrank their heads back, but Xu Ning hurriedly called them: "Don't leave, take a stool for me."

After sitting down, Xu Ning ate a few pieces of meat one after another. Later, he found that everyone in the tent was staring at him, and then he realized the strange sign. He quickly turned to Shi Chuan to report: "Secretary, Haizhou regiment training, military commander Xu Ning, Lord Xiang..."

"Okay, you've been traveling all the way, don't stick to these false polite gifts." Shi Chuan waved his hand to stop Xu Ning's politeness and asked casually: "What's your situation?"

Several officers in the tent frowned and curled their lips, probably because they despised Xu Ning for his style of bandits and bandits, but they didn't know that Xu Ning, who was born in the Golden Spear Clan, usually looks like a playboy, and this is just a reflection of his nature.

Lin Chong knew this, so he quickly poured a glass of wine for Xu Ning, took the opportunity to cover up and said, "You have been on the road all night, thank you for your hard work."

"Not hard..." Xu Ning took a sip of wine and replied: "We walked twenty miles by land a day. Just after we stopped, Zhang Heng arrived. He said that it was an emergency call from the lord, so I had to take the staff team to board the ship... It was a little troublesome when boarding the ship. There was no ferry trek, so I could only ferry back and forth by ferrying, so it was a bit delayed. It would be great if I boarded the ship, and I took the boat all the way, and it was not hard at all.

Lord, Zhang Heng led a large group of people to Jinghai, but he had so many people on his boat, and I guess he couldn't stop in Jinghai. He would have to go back to Haizhou to completely unload all the refugees and goods. It is expected that the thirty loaches will stay in Jinghai and will come to wait for dispatch later. About ten days later, Zhang Heng will bring most of the Batou Navy Army to carry the remaining supplies in the camp."

"Have you brought enough firearms and supplies?" Shi Chuan asked again.

"I was on the boat halfway, and only a small number of baggage troops were brought on the boat. However, at most three days, the loach boat would come from Jinghai, bringing enough gunpowder and supplies..."

"You make arrangements and we will do it tomorrow and choose a separate site outside the camp."

Xu Ning was surprised: "Why don't you set up a camp? Isn't this a good place?... Oh, isn't it easy to manage too many prisoners? When I passed by, I looked at the living conditions of the prisoners. Hey, these prisoners are so shabby. Apart from clothes, they have no other property. I heard that Fang La had robbed sixteen counties, and these prisoners were still so poor. No wonder the resistance was weak when attacking the village. Oh, I heard that someone had robbed Si Xingfang's treasure and ran away. Such a group of mobs, why should I worry?"

Worrying that prisoners are causing trouble is only one thing, but on the other hand, they do not want to bear the food of these prisoners.

Xu Ning, who has always had no worries about food and clothing, cannot understand this, but he is a logistics officer and can immediately realize how tormenting it is to provide food to 100,000 people.

Shi Chuan did not correct Xu Ning. He turned to Xin Xingzong whose face suddenly turned blue, and comforted him, "I have not taken over the treasures of Sixingfang's treasury. After Lord Han Shizhong took over the camp, he only took a part. After the two took over the camp, it would be best to leave some soup for the people behind..."

Xin Xingzong's face suddenly calmed down. Xu Ning realized that he had said the wrong thing. He quickly stuffed his mouth with barbecue. Later, Xin Xingzong bowed and said, "Sir, since he plans to hand over the defense of the camp to me, why not hand over the wine tonight? Haizhou Group Training is extremely tired. After the handover, let the soldiers have a good sleep and set up the camp tomorrow."

Shi Chuan smiled. He looked at Xin Xingzong with a smile, but did not expose the other party's little thoughts. Lin Chong kept saying: "General Lin, you will hand over the treasury of the Sixingfang to Lord Xin later."

Lin Chong smiled slightly and asked, "Can you go now?"

Xin Xingzong achieved his goal and hurriedly confessed: "No, no, no, Xu Zheng rushed all the way, so that people could take a breath... Haha, I was thinking just now, why Fang La treated his soldiers so harshly, and the soldiers were beaten to death with their lives, bleeding and sweating, but they were not captured at all. It's no wonder they were abandoned by the soldiers in a hurry."

I was afraid that the prisoner would not have any oil and water, so I would have traveled for nothing.

Shi Chuan didn't say it out loud, reminding him: "The brainwashing technique of the Mani cult should not be underestimated. Lord Xin, even though Fang La's army implemented the "all seizures must be returned to the public", he thought that Fang La's army was unstable and might the captives seized everything to their superiors to enjoy, that was willing."

Facing a civil servant, Xin Xingzong did not dare to go too far. He lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "Is there anyone so stupid?"

Shi Chuan heard this, and he immediately said, "It's okay if you are not stupid, just brainwash him into a fool. For example, setting up a set of "Great Savior" theory, saying that everyone used to live in dire straits. Since the "Great Savior", the boss suddenly paid everyone a salary. Therefore, the salary everyone gets is not the legal income after working, but because of "Great Savior", and Fang La is everyone's "Great Savior".

Then after paying taxes to support Fang La, you must "selflessly contribute" your legal labor income to the "Great Savior". If you don't give it to you, you will be "unhappy", you will have to "fight hard for personal gains in a flash"; if you want to get your salary in full - for example, if you seize the battlefield, it will be "violently asking for wages" and kill it... Look, this is over, Fang La can take all the income of his subordinates to himself, and claim that this represents the interests of all subordinates.

Look at the beautiful military tent of Sixingfang. You will know how the "Great Saviors" enjoyed it when the Fang La army was not full or warm in food or clothing. Of course, Sixingfang can also say: I enjoy such a luxurious tent and many concubines, not for my own enjoyment, but for the sake of the Fang La army's "overall external image". In this way, as a member of the Fang La army, he actually opposed the leader's enjoyment of luxurious tents and beautiful women regardless of his "overall external image". That would be a crime... As brainwashing, what is the reason for brainwashing scholars? So Lord Xin must be careful, be careful."

Fortunately, the troubles after that were made by Xin Xingzong.

Xin Xingzong burst into laughter and patted his chest and said, "Fortunately, Fang La did not adopt Lord Shi's theory... Fortunately, Lord Shi was a magistrate of the court, not Fang La's military advisor."

Shi Chuan laughed: "So, 'Fang La lacks experience in fighting' - this means that Fang La did not master the brainwashing technology, and its collapse was in an instant."

But the "moment" that Shi Chuan said seemed too optimistic - Fang La's "uprising" lasted for four years. It took more than a month for the imperial army to cross the river alone. In February, the court army on the north bank of the river completed the entire crossing of the river. However, Tong Guan and Tan Zhen did not cross the river. Tong Guan did not cross the river because he was hanging the progress of the Song and Jin sea covenant, while Tan Zhen was because Tong Guan had not crossed the river and was unable to act alone.

In the winter of this year, the Song army attacked Tongwancheng (Tong'ancheng) in Xixia and was defeated. The Xixia army took the opportunity to counterattack and besieged Song Zhenwucheng, and was defeated by the Song army. So the two sides stopped the army and made peace with the Liao Dynasty. In the same year, the Jin Dynasty issued the Jurchen texts made by Wanyan Xiyin.

In February of the spring, Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda gathered a large army until the Liao Kingdom Shangjing. Emperor Tianzuo of Liao was defeated and gave up Shangjing and fled to Xijing. At the same time, Tong Guan appointed his close confidant Wuzhou Observation Envoy, the infantry commander Wang Geng as the commander of the right army, and Liu Zhen, the magistrate of Changxi (i.e. Xiapu), was the commander of the left army. The two armies advanced together and attacked Fang La.

After more than a month of rest, Haizhou regiment training has completely recovered. The 3,000-mounted musketeers fired more live ammunition every day, and the 2,000-long spearmen have strict formations. Their daily training has made the rest of the army see it and finally understand how the strong army is made.

During this period, Tong Guan met, and there was nothing to say when they met. Tong Guan showed his signature win in the meeting. Shi Tong was very respectful when he met... and he was also very irritated. He mentioned that Tong Guan was practicing for the victory on behalf of the Haizhou delegation, and showed little dissatisfaction. Tong Guan went over with a haha, and then immediately determined his subordinates again: Liu Zhen, the subordinate of the left army.

After one month, the court rewarded him. Shi Chuan was rewarded for the merits of the Jiangnan camp and was awarded the deputy commander of the Privy Council and the martial arts doctor. These two official titles were both the seventh rank. Shi Chuan's official position was still "master of the lie". It was already a kind reward for the lieutenant to be the lieutenant, so the court could only "master of the rank".

Judging from the rewards, Tong Guandao did not have the military achievements of Shi Chuan Shi, but the two did not see each other again after that. Tong Guan continued to stay in Jiangbei, worrying about the court's dynamics every day, and Shi Chuan's direct superior was replaced by Liu Zhen.

Early that morning, Liu Zhen was awakened by the military newspaper. Listening to the unique sound of Haizhou soldiers training outside the window, Liu Zhen sighed to the sky: "It's coming again, are you upset?"

Cohort training and endurance training are daily events for Haizhou team training. In addition, Haizhou team training requires live-fire shooting every three days. The roar of each live-fire shooting is noisy, so people can't sleep. Today, listening to this horn, it seems that it is another day for live-fire shooting.

Liu Zhen's secretary walked in with a smile, and helped Liu Zhen clean up while teasing: "Who asked the owner to agree when he moved in? I have said earlier that we live in the original water village, so it's great that the owner wants to do it himself and move into the Haizhou military camp... Now, the thunder and bombs have been thrown in three to five days, which makes people unable to sleep."

Liu Zhen glanced at the secretary and said nothing - can the real reason be revealed? The original Fang La camp had tens of thousands of prisoners. No matter how the official army raised food and grass, they still couldn't make ends meet. In this month, Fang La prisoners had made three troubles. Liu Zhen was worried that it was not safe to live in Fang La Water Village, so he moved to the temporary camp he wore. Unexpectedly, it was safe here, but it was so noisy that people couldn't sleep.

"What military newspaper today?" Liu Zhen changed the topic.

"The court has dealt with the prisoners, saying that they were divided into four parts and the refugees were organized into the wing..."

"It's still the same old trick, there's no new idea at all... Well, how much has we divided into Muzhou?"

The secretary of the school responded respectfully: "I divided 20,000 - It is said that Shi Changqing of Haizhou said that he had transported 20,000 refugees in advance. At this time, he could not count himself as his leader. The Taiwei Tan Zhen and the Privy Councilor Tong were impatient to argue with him, so this time, he really did not place a quota for Haizhou. The remaining 80,000 prisoners were the Wuwei Army of Huainan East Road. In this way, Huainan East Road was also considered to be the adoption of most of the prisoners (Haizhou is also Huainan East Road) in this war. The remaining 40,000 prisoners will be shared by Muzhou, Shezhou and Suzhou."

"We only divided 20,000... Humph, tell me, these prisoners should be taken care of by Shi Changqing - see what their Haizhou soldiers eat, and share some leftovers to the prisoners. Can they eat poor Shi Changqing? He can consume gunpowder like a splash of water, so he can't raise some prisoners at will?"

This is also the reason why Shi Chuan and Tong Guan bothered each other. Tong Guan took the opportunity to divide Shi Chuan's credit in the military newspaper, saying that Shi Chuan attacked Fang La Dazhai was his own plan. Shi Chuan did not seem to express any objection afterwards, but he built a village independently and refused to care about the matter of the water army camp. But the two armies leaned on each other, and the movements in the village could be hidden from others. Everyone saw the daily training of Haizhou soldiers and didn't say anything, but their food really made the army training that was so bitter that they were united and hated.

Not to mention these guys, they occasionally even distribute wine. Just as spring came, a large number of warships brought new spring clothes and new clothes, making the ragged Shaanxi, Shanxi and Jinxi regiments trained like beggars. Such a wealthy and wealthy Haizhou regiment had no intention of supporting friendly troops. They could eat and drink when other soldiers were hungry and had to eat and drink, and they were not polite.

As a local official, Liu Zhen also tends to be equal to the rich and poor. His subordinates were particularly poor. Liu Zhen always wanted to scrape a little from the Haizhou soldiers and subsidize the Jinxi soldiers. This also received the tacit consent and instigation from Tong Guan and others, but Shihua... You can come to him to eat and drink, but you have no way to take it away. But after eating and drinking, they are always embarrassed to turn against each other on the spot, so Liu Zhen has never done it. This is the main reason why Liu Zhen is angry.

After taking the military newspaper and flipping through a few pages, Liu Zhen sighed and got up to find Shizhang... Oh, and solve the lunch problem by the way.

Sure enough, the Haizhou team training on the playground had finished the queue training, and was setting up gun targets and setting up warning lines. When Liu Zhen walked by, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken - all that was shot out was money. Gunpowder and cannons were consumables. It is said that after a live-fire training, it cost more than hundreds of taxes. He was rich, so that's it.

With this feeling of resentment, Liu Zhen approached the military tent and heard the voices of talking inside, Liu Zhen nodded slightly satisfied - this was another point that Shi Chuan made Liu Zhen dissatisfied. He was obviously a juren, and he wanted to mingle with the military men every day. The military men trained him, and he followed him. A group of big-headed soldiers ran in front and followed Shi Changqing, the juren, behind. He ran out of breath and was not afraid of embarrassment.

Today, I didn’t go out for training. This is very good. Liu Zhen stopped at the entrance of the camp for a while so that he could breathe evenly. He only heard the sound of the cage coming from inside: "You are poor, I can’t see that you are poor - how much does a war horse cost? You are willing to buy hundreds of dozens of war horses, more than a thousand. I keep you back to your hometown with the money you can’t carry."

Immediately afterwards, Yang Weizhong's low voice came: "Horse, you can't sell, the life of the warrior... I'll have to fight."

The voice of the general Zhe Keqiu of Fuzhou Town was immediately heard: "General Yang means: war horses are the lives of soldiers. The imperial court ordered us to come here to fight because he wanted to rely on the highway of the cavalry, not to let us sell horses. Without war horses, what are the soldiers of the Western Jin Dynasty?

I heard the tempting voice of Shizhang sounded: "So, after the war, do you have to take the war horse home?... Do you know futures? Why not do this? After the war, you sell the war horses to me. One thousand horses are not too much, three thousand horses are better. I just thought I bought a futures and gave you a part of the advance payment. After that, you handed the war horses to me, I paid the remaining money, and we..."

I can't listen anymore. If I continue listening, the foreign soldiers in the western Jin Dynasty were fooled and walked home after the war. Liu Zhen quickly lifted the curtain and said loudly: "Military newspaper: Fang La personally led the army to fight north, and 500,000 troops entered Wuzhou (now Jinhua, Zhejiang), Qu (now Zhejiang) Prefecture. Xuanzhou Ningguo County (now southwest of Ningguo, Anhui) fell, and Fang La's army surrounded Guangde Army (now Guangde, Anhui).

In addition, the 400,000 troops of Fang Qifu in Xiuzhou entered Huzhou (now Wuxing, Zhejiang). The Qiu Daoren of Shan County, the immortals of Lu Shinnang, and Chen Shisi of Fang Yanshan responded. Huzhou was in ruins... The Privy Councilor and the Taiwei decided to fight against the Sun, Wuzhou Observation Envoy, and the infantry commander Wang Juetong East Route Army to fight against Fang Qifu; our army went south to fight against Fang La."

The Guangde Army is adjacent to this Fangla Naval Army Dazhai, which means that Fangla has reached a nearby location, and the two sides are only a few days apart.
