Two hundred and twentieth chapters of the country (10)
The crying was so loud that Zhang Xing, who stayed in Liyang City, also heard it. But fortunately, it seemed like an accident. As the sun set, the crying stopped. And Zhang Xing could understand these crying to some extent...
It is understandable whether you are thinking of Omaki who starved to death in the past few years, or you are crying with joy after seeing the food and realizing that the food shortage after the new year that you have been worrying about for most of half a year has actually been eliminated.
In prosperity, people suffer, and in death, people suffer. This sentence is particularly true for the people in the Central Plains of Hebei who have experienced the rise and fall of the Wei Dynasty.
The crying stopped that night, and Zhang Xing felt a little relieved. After eating a bowl of millet porridge, he went into the room early, held the light and started writing letters. At first, they were just letters about old times and chatting.
The first letter was to Bai Yousi. This letter was relatively long. It described in detail what had happened recently and his own mental journey. It also included various views on people and things, guesses and preparations for the situation.
Thinking of Yuan Da's incident to today's crying, from Dou Lide's unconcealed ambition to Xu Shiying's cold stare, from the situation in Kansai to the possible Hebei War, as well as the doubts and confusion about the progress of his cultivation... In the end, he
He also emphasized one thing, that is, he hopes that Bai Yousi will continue to stabilize the army, act as a strategic reserve, and ensure that when necessary, the main force and core team of the gang who venture westward will be supported, no matter where they go next and how they fight.
, he will not use the remaining six battalions in Dengzhou plus tens of thousands of troops in the field.
To put it bluntly, although under the influence of intense anger, Zhang Xing had decided to let go, he still reserved backup options from the perspective of the survival of the gang.
The second letter is to Li Ding. Since they are marching westward and have conquered Ji County and Wei County, the next military obstacle the gang will face is the counterattack of Dongdu's power and Li Ding's troops...
He has never doubted that if Li Ding is really ruthless, his 20,000 soldiers and his military talents will bring huge trouble to the gang... For example, he can think of it now, if the other party becomes ruthless, he will take advantage of the gang.
How much trouble would it cause if the main force raided the general's tomb in the west.
Not to mention, there is also the possibility of Li Ding and the Dongdu soldiers and horses joining forces, which would be really embarrassing.
However, in this letter, Zhang Xing did not directly persuade him to surrender like in the previous letters. Instead, he focused on promoting the achievements of himself and the gang. Of course, he also described his shock and anger when he saw the food.
He talked about the past when his boots were robbed, the meeting between the two in Taolin, and the current situation.
Finally, I specifically mentioned the crying I heard tonight, and thought that even if I were defeated in the future war, this time would not be in vain.
Of course, as he wrote this, he was still as tough-talking as ever, believing that even if he did such a shocking thing, he could still turn the corner and win the final victory.
The third letter is to Li Qingchen. This is a serious letter of persuasion to surrender. He advises Li Qingchen to see the situation clearly and not to go to the dark side for personal grudges and his illusory noble son's self-esteem. But to help here, always for anyone who is willing.
Those who turn back open the door, and it is never too late to turn back and "share the benefits of the world".
At the same time, he also mentioned Qin Bao in the letter and asked if he could help Qin Bao take out the family scrolls.
Now that things have happened, Zhang Xing has made a deep introspection. He believes that he was too naive a few years ago and lacked effective knowledge of personnel matters. From Zhang San's perspective now, the reason why Qin Er was put in such an embarrassing situation is that on the one hand
It was Qin Er who had lost his temper since childhood and his mother was extremely restrictive; on the other hand, it was also because he had ignored the other person's self-esteem and was unable to be honest with him.
Of course, speaking of Qin Bao on the surface, it is actually said of Qin Bao, but it is not taking the opportunity to admit his mistake and give Li Qingchen himself a step up.
The fourth letter, as well as the fifth, sixth and seventh letters, Zhang Xing wrote respectively to four great masters whom he had never met before... Of course, he may have met and he didn't know... One of them was the Grand Governor of Dongyi,
One is the Great Siming of Beidi, the other is Taoist Chonghe of Trinity Orthodox Church, and the third one is the former leader of Zhenhuo Sect whose specific location cannot be found at present, but is definitely in Jiangnan.
The contents of the letters are similar. They simply introduce the situation of the gang, describe their own ideas, and express an intention to seek in-depth cooperation.
Of course, the matters discussed and the positions and attitudes expressed in different letters are still different.
Zhang Xing mainly expressed his admiration to Taoist He Chong and the Qianjin Cult Master, which was relatively empty, but he did invite them. He hoped that these two people could come to Hebei and the east to have a look. What is the so-called hand in hand to create a career together?
.
Of course he would not invite the Governor of Dongyi, but he would give some superficial political perfunctory, but it was just perfunctory, and there was not even any expression of alliance. He just said that there should be peaceful coexistence at present, but he rarely mentioned that he had met the leftists at the beginning.
Youxian, promised to send the other party's bones back to Dongyi... Of course, I guess he couldn't do it by himself, but had to ask a messenger to deliver it. Zuo Youxian's bones were cremated and sent to Dongdu by Du Po Formation.
, I have been in that house all this time, and I need someone to take a walk.
Regarding the Great Commander of the North, I will go into more detail. To put it bluntly, looking at the identity chosen by the Black Emperor, this Great Commander is the Grand Master that he can really rely on, and with the help of this
In an attack, regardless of success or failure, both sides will actually go one step further.
After writing these letters, Chief Zhang hesitated and added two more text messages to Qin Bao's mother and Yueniang. The main purpose was to remind these two that the Wei Dynasty was about to overthrow and that they should consider the future and safety of his own family and Qin Er.
Don't really go so far as to kill them on the battlefield.
Then, he suddenly tore up the letter addressed to Taoist Chonghe.
The letter supplying Qin Bao's mother and Yueniang was of course because the envoy was going to Dongdu to collect the ashes, so he wrote it in passing. When he tore up the letter to Taoist Chonghe, he suddenly realized that Taoist Chonghe was in Taibai.
Feng, in other words, is just outside the Western Capital City, and the other party is the leader of the Trinity Orthodox Church. Although he looks calm and calm on the surface, he has actually been involved in the situation for a long time, and he may have a sensitive stance.
In other words, this person, like Cao Lin of the Eastern Capital and Master Zhang of the Eastern Capital, God knows whether he will directly participate in and influence the matter of helping the West to intimidate the outer areas of the Eastern Capital, and then directly affect the development of the situation.
Even if you think about it carefully, the three of them have formed a triangle exactly at the center point of this world for a long time.
Before the advent of troubled times, the great masters of this world were basically distributed in the center and peripheral areas. This was certainly not a natural distribution.
The eleven great masters, assuming that Cao Che relies on some mechanism to temporarily obtain some corresponding authority in Dongdu with his status as emperor, are the twelve great masters, the emperor, Taoist Chonghe, Cao Lin, and Master Zhang
There are four people in the middle...the Grand Governor of Dongyi, the Grand Siming of Northland, the old lady of Nanling Holy Mother, the island owner of Yao Island, the Qianjin Cult Leader of Jiangnan, the High Priest of the Sea of Bitterness of the Wu Clan, the Lay Buddhist of Xueling in the West Sea, plus a Divine Dragon Seeer
The beginning is missing, but it does exist. Jingantai speculates that it is the leader of the Trinity Orthodox Church of the previous generation, or simply a three-hui walker who was transformed into a real dragon and went around to help people draw energy and build foundations... There is obviously a pattern.
In fact, Zhang Sanlang simply picked up the paper to think and classify as a routine.
And he quickly realized that, not to mention the first four, the remaining eight can basically be divided into two categories, either backed by the Three Glory and the Four Emperors, or supported by an exact military, political and religious organization... Of course, many people
It has multiple identities.
This is probably the result of the so-called peaceful era, when the earth's atmosphere is stable and restricted.
The only interesting thing is that the Three Glory and the Four Yusui Dragons all have obvious agents...except for the White Emperor... As his base in Shuzhong, there is only one owner of the lodge who is said to be the number one master who still works with him.
It doesn't matter, there is a Thirteen King Kong.
Or is it that the Sanhui Walker belongs to his family?
If the great master is like this, what about the true dragon?
Thinking of this, Zhang Xing himself laughed. He could only say that after his anger three days ago, he had gained the confidence to even dare to study this carefully... And when he thought about it carefully, the real dragon
The distribution of is also very interesting.
Either they are dragons who have been recruited and divided into geographical areas or important rivers, or they have far away from the core areas of human civilization.
However, Zhang Xing suddenly realized a problem, that is, these dragons, especially the dragons who were sealed by the imperial edict, seemed to separate the two groups of central grand masters and peripheral grand masters.
Of course, it was just a guess, he didn't know anything. As for this information, it is estimated that only the person involved/Long knew the information, and everyone else was just guessing, and they still had to wait for the "Wang Huaiji" to attend the appointment.
When I think of this, I can't help but think of the other person saying that he has to get through this, but it makes Chief Zhang return to the real issues from those messy things.
But at this time, it was already getting late, and it was not even possible to say that it was already next year.
Soon, Zhang Xing will pass the fifth anniversary since time travel and enter the sixth year since time travel. Six years have passed, and he doesn’t know if he has accomplished nothing? He doesn’t know if he will still be under the pressure of the Grand Master.
Will it continue or fail? But on the other hand, as a traveler in a society that has completed industrialization and is undergoing informationization, why must I achieve something?
It's just a self-righteous choice and move forward based on personal likes and dislikes and so-called historical experience. It's enough for Yan Guo to leave a message.
Thinking of this, Zhang Sanlang unexpectedly became a little crazy. He simply put away these letters, blew out the lights, took off the golden cone and compass, and turned over to sleep.
Not to mention that Zhang Xingroutine suffered from the time-traveler's lack of confidence syndrome after he achieved some results. Let's just say that the next morning, after opening his eyes and entering the new year, the time-traveler put away his thoughts and devoted himself to work again...
…He sorted out the letters, called some of his direct subordinates with corresponding backgrounds one by one to serve as envoys, sent the letters, and then started working.
From this day on, Zhang Xing no longer paid attention to the military affairs for the time being, but seriously assisted Dou Lide and his wife and Wei Xuanding in the matter of grain distribution, because he found that this was what he was most worried about.
Soon, a basic plan was roughly formed through discussion and practice, and was quickly promoted and used.
The first, of course, is the military depot. The military depots lined up along the official road must have fuel, hot water, cooking, large sheds for resting, and accounting books to keep track of the hard work of the soldiers in the field.
This has been the basic need for logistics or logistics transfer for a long time. Although this time it is large-scale and urgent, it is actually relatively simple compared to military needs, because the gang already has sufficient experience, and there are dense cities along the way.
, greatly reducing the related burden.
However, this raises a new key issue, that is, the cooperation of Wuyang County officials. After all, most of the main transshipment channels are within Wuyang County, and Wuyang County is a large county that has just surrendered. At this time,
Political commitment and protection of the original system are needed.
Therefore, this also triggered the second method - under the suggestion of Wei Xuanding's letter, Zhang Xing issued the temporary appointment of Yuan Baocun as the chief, and still appointed him as the governor of Wuyang County. At the same time, he announced that with this transfer and
Distributing relief is the basic assessment to decide whether to retain the local officials of Wuyang County, Wei County, and Ji County. The other counties will also use this as the biggest basis for promotion and transfer assessment after this spring.
This is the effectiveness of political commitment and the most effective mental stimulation.
The third and most important method was the strategy that Mrs. Dou Cao Xi suddenly proposed on the second day of the Lunar New Year to recruit local people and send them back to their hometowns.
This is a very simple, but extremely effective, and multi-purpose method.
To put it simply, the common people who come to collect grain are recruited as civilian husbands here in Liyangcang, and they are asked to form a transport team with the established field soldiers according to the ratio of 37 to 37, and transport the grain together, and the promised free 50 kilograms of grain per kilogram
It's quite a lot, but now we can only give out thirty kilograms first, and the remaining twenty kilograms need to be given at the destination, and the destination they are responsible for transporting is their respective hometowns.
Food will be provided along the way, and depending on the distance, an extra ten to thirty kilograms will be given as a reward.
There are many benefits of this strategy, such as being able to quickly gather manpower and reducing the waste of manpower; it is also giving practical benefits to the people who transport food without wasting materials; and the third is that it can reduce the repeated collection of Liyangcang by malicious people.
Ensure that these people leave immediately after receiving the food; finally, when local officials receive supplies and civilians, they can easily fill the gap in their local mobilization work, facilitating a new round of dispersed relief within counties and counties.
Zhang Xing immediately praised Cao Xi in public, and temporarily designated Cao Xi as the big boss on the spot and changed her to the general manager of the field, letting her take charge of the matter.
This is the second female leader of the gang, and she specializes in logistics. She was born in Hebei, and she was promoted very quickly after joining the gang, which is really shocking.
Of course, various other measures, including changing patrols to road guidance and investigating security problems caused by food in the wilderness, were also announced one by one.
Among them, there are many non-controversial measures. For example, Chief Zhang insisted on fulfilling the promise of free grain distribution for seven days against all opinions, and insisted on using the strategy of sending civilians back to their hometowns in Hanoi County, which has not yet been acquired. It is believed that
Dujun, Wu'an County, Xiangguo County, and even the people of Xingyang County who came across the river.
That's right, in theory, these ordinary people coming from the enemy's territory will arrive at the borders of the relevant states and counties with the assistance of the field troops and patrols, carrying more than sixty kilograms of food per person.
Also arriving at the same time was a arrogant "instruction" from Chief Zhang Xingzhang, requiring them to distribute the grain fairly to the people and not to hide it privately, otherwise they would be severely punished.
At the beginning, many people felt that this was a waste of manpower and transport capacity, and even a benefit to the enemy.
But in fact, after they actually started operating, everyone woke up, because the actual extra food paid was not much more than the food taken by the people who came from these places, but it greatly expanded the influence of the gang.
.
And soon, on the fourth day of the first lunar month, a more important thing broke out, which forced everyone to shift their attention.
Li Shu arrived at Liyangcang on the third day of the first lunar month, and made up his mind before meeting Zhang Xing. The two agreed face to face, and then Li Shu returned that day, and the next day he officially mobilized all the main forces in the four counties of Jiyin Xingtai.
The soldiers and horses attacked from both sides in the direction of Hebei, invaded Xingyang County, the gateway to Dongdu, and headed straight for Luokou Cang in Aoshan.
Dozens of prefectures and counties in Hebei and Henan, including high-ranking officials in Dongdu, have all been helped.
Of course, in addition to being numb, the officials in Dongdu are also a little scared. If they really take advantage of the frozen river and attack Dongdu, who will it be? And who can stop the current situation? Navy Admiral Song Changsheng or
Long-legged general Qutuda?
Who is responsible for the fall of Dongdu?
An urgent letter signed by six people was sent to Tongguan.
Yes, Cao Lin is still in Tongguan, and he has not entered Guanxi... But this is not about fishing and law enforcement, but that he is in huge trouble.
Han Yingong, that son of a bitch, actually stood still in Hedong after receiving the military order, and even retreated to the northeast with more than 10,000 main troops.
And Hedong is where the southern slope of Master Zhang lies.
Even though he had already known that Liyangcang had been breached, Cao Lin was still more angry at Han Yingong. He wished he could fly over, strangle the opponent alive with a rope, and then take back the army.
But he didn't dare because it looked too much like a bait.
Crossing the unremarkable frozen river and entering Hedong, if Zhang Bofeng really wanted to make things difficult for him, Cao Lin would definitely be defeated.
PS: Thanks to Uncle Ze and Master Shui Changdong for their alliance, and thanks to Master Fusheng and Yueyongjiujiu for the reward.
