Chapter 122 Heroic spirit (Part 1)
Yueming County
At this time, the army had not yet traveled, but for some reason.
Yu Liangbo and Zhang Youzhi were able to enter the county government. At this time, the county government was covered with personal soldiers. When they arrived at a courtyard, they saw the eunuch greeting him and bowed urgently and said, "Master, please ask the two of you in!"
When I arrived outside the hall, I saw several guards standing at the door with knives, but they were not blocked.
When I got inside, I saw a young man, who was in the ninth rank official robe, which was Zhang Yuwen.
After Yu Liangbo and Zhang Youzhi came in, they kowtowed and bowed, then got up by themselves. When they looked down, they saw a wide table on the door, full of files. Wang Hongyi sat leaning against the chair. On the table, there was a bowl of rice in it. It was cooked and half of it was left, and it was slightly steaming.
Wang Hongyi ordered the two of them: "Sit down and talk together!"
He ordered again: "Give tea!"
After Wang Hongyi finished speaking, he said again: "The messenger in front of him came from the news. Du Gongzhen broke Chuankou County in a long time. Gu was originally happy, but the report below made Gu feel very uncomfortable."
"There is a county town in Chuankou County, with only 200 stones of grain in the city, and the people's grain has been plundered, and many people are hungry for a day and have not eaten."
"Fortunately, it was broken early. If it were a few days slow, wouldn't the people in the city starve to death?" At this point, Wang Hongyi said with a pale face and sneered: "I also know that the two soldiers are fighting each other and there is no need to be kind, but Qian Qingfu was so crazy that this is beyond my expectations."
"It's not just Chuankou County, Gu already knows that Qian Qingfu ordered the forced collection of food and grass, and all the food and grass were transferred to the city, causing the people to struggle on the brink of death. When he heard this news, Gu's anger and sorrow were hard to describe!"
He pointed to the rice again and said, "This is the only one who has transported the rice in Cang. The refugees in this county just ate it, and Dushan shouted long live... I can't afford this call, I can't afford it!"
"To be honest, the rice is all moldy. It is the rice from Chencang. Gu couldn't get used to it. His stomach was churning, but Gu still forced himself to eat half a bowl..." Speaking of this, Wang Hongyi sighed: "Gu has selfish intentions, and Gu's food is limited. New rice must be used for military rations, but the old rice has been cleared out, and there are 300,000 stones to be distributed along the way."
"When the army pacified Yongchang County, the concentrated grain can be distributed. If there is any shortage, then extract it from the military warehouse. Even if there is no time to plow in spring, you have to replant the grain once. Then catch up with winter wheat cultivation and you will be able to overcome the difficulties."
"Lord, your thoughts and hearts are the way of Yao and Shun!" Yu Liangbo heard this and his nose was sore, and he had already fallen from tears. He wiped his tears and said calmly: "I wish the king's heart will turn into a candle of light, not shining on the Luoqiu Courtyard, but shining on the broken house. Today, my lord has this heart, and I will devote all my efforts to the death."
As he said that, he got up, crept on the ground, and kowtowed deeply.
Zhang Youzhi was in a heavy mood, but he said hatefully: "It is a last resort to give grain and old rice. But when the warehouse was cleared out, some people thought we had no food, and some people had already fanned the flames and accumulated food, which would shake the grain market. Their heart would be punished."
Wang Hongyi nodded and said, "This is what we want to discuss. By the way, from last year to now, we have purchased a total of 500,000 stones of grain, just for this."
"If there was no preparation before, would the people of Xiyizhou save or not?"
"If you save it and Dongyizhou is insufficient food, you will be in chaos as soon as you stir up these merchants with ulterior motives, and you will be in chaos immediately, afraid of immediate boiling disaster."
"By relying on military force, you can calm down, but I am afraid that I will lose all my kindness. I am afraid that this internal and external force is not unintentional, but it is done by those who are determined!"
Zhang Youzhi kowtowed deeply and said, "I am willing to accept the order and supervise the matter in Yizhou. Who dares to store grain at this critical moment? I am willing to bear the bad reputation."
After hearing this, Wang Hongyi nodded and said, "The people all feed on grassroots and tree bark. Since I am willing to inherit the destiny, I will not be afraid. I must do this. I have already ordered Du Gongzhen to be a pioneer again and destroy the county again. In addition, the county magistrates along the way must be appointed quickly, even if they are agents, so that they can distribute the food... Alas, my people's livelihood is difficult, and one cent faster is one cent!"
Speaking of this, compassion is beyond words, and every sentence is out of true feelings. When everyone present heard it, they felt compassion in their hearts, and they kowtowed and said, "I will answer your order!"
"Gu knows that these things may not be ordinary." Wang Hongyi thought, and his tone gradually became stricter: "Guoshi's inspection and supervision, Zhang Youzhi, you are responsible for this matter. I know you are a creeping tiger, you are not responsible for small matters, and you are meticulous in killing and killing in major matters. Gu will use your point to give you full authority to deal with this matter."
"As for the connection between the mountain tribes, if Wang Congmen reports to me personally, you don't have to worry about it. The overall situation of food is a major issue, so you will give priority to it."
Zhang Youzhi kowtowed again and responded: "No!"
"Yu Liangbo, you and the Office are dealing with the transfer of officials. You must quickly build the teams that conquered each county, so that the people can distribute food and organize replanting."
"The group of people who have been assigned to train before can be mobilized and re-used, each level will be upgraded and assigned to the appointment. Those who perform well can be promoted on the spot."
"Zhang Yuwen, you have been walking in the Miwen Pavilion for half a year. I will assign you specific supervision and distribution of grain. The merchants don't care. You must distribute the 300,000 stones of old rice."
"I give you full power. At this extraordinary time, if someone takes the opportunity to cheat on private matters, you will kill him. I give you three hundred personal soldiers to temporarily dispatch you!"
Yu Liangbo and Zhang Yuwen also kowtowed together.
The news of victory was also passed to Qian Qingfu.
"What? In less than a day, Chuankou County was captured by the Shu army? And the one who captured the city was not the king's thief?" When the news reached Yongchang County City, Qian Qingfu accidentally knocked down a cup, pressed his hand tightly on the table, and stood up suddenly.
Although he had expected that Chuankou County could not stop the attack of the Shu army, he was easily captured, and the strength demonstrated by the Shu army still made him feel palpitations.
Several other people stood opposite Qian Qingfu.
It was the confidant who came here to discuss matters with Qian Qingfu. When Qian Qingfu heard the news, they listened to it with sincerity, and their faces were very ugly at this time.
"The strength of the Shu army is so great? It seems that the legend is true..." Military advisor Xu Jin frowned, thought for a while, and raised his eyes: "Lord, I have heard before that when Wang Hongyi led his troops to attack Hongze Town, he used a weapon. This weapon should be a catapult, or something like a catapult, but its power is more powerful than a catapult, and it can knock out the thick city walls and then directly enter the city."
"This weapon requires no less than a hundred soldiers to use it together. I thought it was just a legend and it was too exaggerated. Now it seems, it should be true."
"If this is true, the city walls of the county city are stronger than those of Chuankou County, and they cannot withstand the bombardment of huge rocks for days and nights. Xu Jin, could we only be defeated in this battle?" Although Qian Qingfu knew that surrendering to Wang Hongyi could save his life, perhaps he could protect his clan members like Du Gongzhen, and at the same time he could have certain power and wealth.
However, Qian Qingfu was lucky enough to stay in this chaotic Xiyizhou for a long time and his ambitions became greater. He would never be willing to lie under anyone!
"Lord, if you can't defend the city, you won't defend it." Xu Jin smiled: "If I remember correctly, there is a mountain gorge on the road to the county town, which is a good place for ambushing."
"You mean, Shanxia ambushing is indeed a good idea, which makes this weapon useless." Qian Qingfu's anxious mood calmed down a little.
However, for them, there is still no chance of winning between 10,000 and 40,000.
What's more, the Shu army is strong.
"The Shu army went on a war this time. Even if we choose to fight at Shanxia to seize the pass, we can fight 10,000 soldiers against 40,000 soldiers, and the strength is very different. After all, the king thief is a person who has pacified Dongyizhou, so we should not underestimate it!" Qian Qingfu murmured, his eyes falling on a map on the table.
On it, there are many marks in the large area marked with the forest area.
"When it comes to fierce fighting and cruel temperament, the mountain tribe should be a very consistent feature..." Qian Qingfu lowered his head and stared at the map with his eyes deep.
At this moment, he thought of a solution. Although it was a bit risky, it was indeed a good idea.
While he was thinking, the people around him dared not let out a moment and were waiting for his decision.
"If we hire the mountain tribe to send troops to help us retreat, how much chance of victory will increase?" Qian Qingfu suddenly looked up and glanced at everyone: "What do you think?"
"Lord, the mountain tribe has good combat power and is cruel and fierce in nature, but they are cunning by nature. If they are afraid that they will get the wolf in front and the tiger in the back will be directly involved!" Xu Jin hesitated and felt that it was necessary to remind himself of his lord, once this leads the mountain tribe in, there will be endless troubles!
Qian Qingfu snorted coldly.
How could Qian Qingfu not know about this?
However, at this moment, the battle of destruction and destruction is about to begin, what other choice can he make?
The expression on his face suddenly became ferocious, and Qian Qingfu said in a deep voice: "Since it has reached this point, I will still care about what I do. I will write a letter and send someone to the mountain tribe and hire the mountain tribe to send troops!"
As he said that, Qian Qingfu calmed down and revealed his worries: "I was just a soldier back then, and I had won many achievements. Huo Changyong was cowardly and incompetent, but he was extremely jealous. He wanted to frame me several times. When he met a minister, he also said that I was mediocre and incompetent, and I was destined to die well, and I had no wealth to enjoy!"
"I didn't believe it, and I felt angry when I heard it. It happened that the fire was so hot that I was so angry that I took advantage of the battlefield and killed him."
"After killing, I was promoted to the Chief of Fire. I was happy. After many wars, I continued to be promoted and became the chief of the camp. However, because of my low background, I could not be happy even if I welcomed the general. Several life-and-death battles finally made me realize that the net was mixed. If I please, I would never get rid of it and I would not be happy for a day."
"Haha, after I realized it, I vowed to kill everything for myself with a knife, so I can kill my boss and the general, and seize all his foundation. Those civil servants, those scheming, and those rules are not worth laughing at when they encounter a blade!"
"This town has been around for more than ten years, and has collected beauties and killed many people. Many people say that I am crazy, but I know that I am not in vain. I bet on my life and my life will be the best in my life. God has treated me well!"
"After I die, I don't care about the flood. Wang Hongyi wants to take my foundation and ask for my head. This is OK. I will lead the thief into the people and disrupt the West Yizhou. Let's see how he takes it."
