At the end of March in the third year of Jianji, spring sowing in various states was completed one after another.
A chaotic group of troops gathered in the suburbs of Luoyang, making a lot of noise.
Jiangling soldiers and Xingyuan soldiers went back and forth over the division of camp areas, and almost started fighting.
The Hehuangfan people and the Longjian soldiers fought over who could receive the supplies first, and hundreds of people participated.
The masters gathered from various states also had many quarrels, and there was a tendency to fight.
It wasn't until the Jingluo and Yi Cong Second Armies were dispatched to deal with them severely that things gradually calmed down.
Fengyin, the deputy envoy of the Economic Strategy Army, looked at these soldiers and felt that they were not here to fight. They must be full of resentment in their hearts. They were forced to go into battle one by one. Who knows what kind of fight they could get.
"Two Generals Zhuge, the barbarian soldiers need to be restrained. We have arrested dozens of people in the past few days, and there are still some who are disturbing the people. This is still a small matter. After going into battle, if they still look like this,
These dozens of people are not the only ones who died." Fengyin reminded as he looked at the Shannan soldiers who had extremely poor equipment and poor discipline.
Of course, if they really go into battle, it is impossible to let them line up and fight in the field, as that will only cheat their own people. In the end, most of them will still participate in the siege, but I don't know if they can endure such bloody fighting.
Barbarians often fight in the countryside, but the fighting between large armies is much more cruel, and not everyone can adapt to it.
"Don't worry, general, we will strictly control you and won't disturb the people anymore." Zhuge Tai and Zhuge Shangren said sarcastically, but their expressions actually showed disapproval, and maybe there was a trace of hidden anger.
Feng Yin knew their thoughts.
Everyone in the world who has some military power is more or less hoping that the imperial court will cause a big setback. They like to fish in troubled waters and seize benefits.
But they haven't waited for the opportunity until now, and no one dares to take the lead, so they have to endure it. If you can't bear it, your whole family will die, and no one may come to save you. If you endure it, they will be forced to accept the order and lead the army to King Qin to fight.
.
Feng Yin understands this feeling of frustration and boredom. After all, he is also a martial artist.
"Do you know the Holy Order? On the first day of April, Bazhou and Tongzhou soldiers will go ahead and drive to Bozhou." Feng Yin said: "Don't cause trouble on the way."
"No, no," the two said repeatedly.
The Zhuge family, originally a well-known and well-known family in the new dynasty, ended up in this situation. Zhuge Zhongfang, the direct lineage, fell into this situation due to a mistake in his lineage. There is nothing he can do.
In fact, in the eyes of Zhuge Tai and Zhuge Shangren, Zhuge Zhongfang's choice was not necessarily wrong. But the Shao family was so powerful that when they saw that the situation was not good, they quickly surrendered and started cutting. But now it seems that Zhuge's
The last bit of troops will probably be consumed in Hebei, and it's impossible not to feel annoyed.
After all, Shao Sheng is not Fu Jian. The territory you conquered must be sorted out carefully and digested slowly. You will not be allowed to continue to command troops and stationed in the heart of the land. If you are a private soldier, you will even be dragged into the battlefield and consumed.
.
Damn, Bian, Yun, Yan, Qi, and Xu Zhuzhen's surrendered troops have been exhausted and no one has raised any troops. What's going on?
"Restrain the troops well." Feng Yin gave one last instruction and left.
He is now in charge of the public security in the suburbs of Luoyang, and his main management targets are these guest troops from other places. He is very busy and at the same time amazed.
How many such soldiers are there in the world? Since the attack and annihilation of Zhu Quanzhong, the saints have been competing with these surrendered soldiers. And the vassal commanders from various places are still recruiting troops and expanding their troops. After they were finally destroyed, another place was left.
A mess. Kill, you can’t kill, you can’t be dismissed, you can’t be dismissed, Male Gobi!

After a vanguard of more than 7,000 soldiers and horses from Ba and Tong prefectures left Beijing, the main force of the imperial army also began to mobilize.
More than 10,000 people from the left wing of Tielin's army were transferred back from the river and stayed in Luoyang.
The Jinglue Army marched north to Heyang to take over from the Tianxiong Army, while the Tianxiong Army marched eastward in batches.
The Wuwei Army stationed in Zhengzhou has also received orders to go eastward, passing through Bianzhou and Huazhou to Puzhou, and then cross the river to go north.
After suppressing the Tibetans, the Iron Cavalry and Dingnan armies had returned. In order to reduce logistical pressure, the Iron Cavalry army went north to Shengzhou to rest and recuperate, while the Dingnan army marched eastward to Luoyang to accompany them on the expedition.
Yi Congjun, all Yin'anzhi sergeants returned to camp, were not allowed to go out at will, and were ready for the expedition.
That is to say, on the first day of April, Zhang Huaishen, the Duke of Anfeng County, died of illness and had to miss the day.
On the second day of April, Hanjiacang City dispatched the last batch of 100,000 dendrobium and wheat. The ships anchored in Xintan were loaded and set off, and they entered the Yellow River along the Luoshui River and headed eastward.
The people of Luoyang who gathered nearby were amazed.
The merchant ships carrying goods all stopped outside through the Xiecheng Canal, and the waterways were all out of the way. Grain ships one after another were led by trackers out of the city and into Luoshui.
"This ship must have a thousand grains and beans, right?"
"More than that, at least fifteen hundred dendrobium, or two thousand dendrobium."
"How long will this amount of food be enough for my family?"
"What we fight in war is food."
There were so many idle people watching, some even followed the grain transport ship out of the city, it was so idle that it hurt.
Outside the upper east gate, a large group of Tutuan peasants were holding all kinds of equipment and waiting for orders.
Xiang Yong from Xin'an County stood at the front.
Li Zheng, Qin Erlang, held the handle of the knife in his hand, raised his chest and raised his belly, and glanced at the master who had been brought out.
Zhou Dalang had already put on the leather armor left by his father. There were holes in the armor, which had just been repaired by someone. He was leaning on a heavy walking stick and his expression was not very good.
"You look like a bear whose parents are dead." Qin Erlang walked up to him and sneered.
"My father is dead, but my mother is still here." Zhou Dalang muttered in a low voice.
Qin Erlang choked and said angrily: "How dare you talk back! Look at the people from our village, you look like a bear. If you go into battle, you will be chopped down in one encounter."
"Are you really going into battle?" Zhou Dalang swallowed.
When Qin Erlang saw this, he became even more angry and said: "When Mr. Heyang moved from Huazhou, everyone said he was not good at fighting. But after ten years, everyone praised him for his bravery in fighting. But you people, I am afraid that you are not good at building palaces and cities."
You're stupid. Go to Hebei and wait to attack the city. Don't expect to stay behind and transport food and grass. It won't be a good thing."
As soon as Qin Lizheng said these words, several people sighed.
"Fuck!" Qin Lizheng wanted to draw his sword and kill several people, but he heard him say: "Do you know why the imperial court recruits and trains new soldiers in the four prefectures of Yun, Shaanxi, Ling, and Wei? Aren't you worried that you will not be effective? After arriving in Hebei, I will
Ask for orders from the top, and I will lead you to attack the city and see the blood, even if you die, you will not regret it."
The husbands were speechless. They all gave up their luck and no longer thought about their fields, cattle, sheep, wives and children. They recalled the content of the exercises during the off-farm period, and gradually began to feel better.
The people in the capital of Daxia have not yet reached the level of Chang'an. Although they have not suffered hardships, the winter training is very systematic and they have practiced a lot. They have lived a prosperous and stable life for too long, and now what they lack is that
The courage to see the red on the bayonet can only be experienced by going to the battlefield.
The drums suddenly sounded.
The ladies outside the upper east gate seemed to be suddenly electrified. Before their brains could react, muscle memory had already taken effect and they were all arranged neatly.
"Go! Kill the thief!" Qin Erlang roared.
"Kill the thief!" everyone responded.
"Have you not had enough to eat?" Qin Erlang looked at them with dangerous eyes.
"Kill the thief!" The voice rose to the sky.
The team marched in a meandering way, and the second generation of the capital set off for the battle.
****
The Tibetan people led horses and even camels and went out with their masters.
Liang Xiangjian was the commander-in-chief of the Tibetan soldiers in Hehuang.
He had a good tour of Luoyang these days and was deeply impressed.
The parts that have not yet been cleared are overgrown and messy. The cleared houses have been built one after another, including many beautiful tall mansions.
The streets were bustling with people and there were many people. Not only did everyone wear gold and silver, at least there were many wealthy people.
The most eye-catching thing is the women, all beautiful and graceful. After looking at them, I suddenly felt that all the yellow-faced women in the house could be thrown away, and I really couldn't bring up my desire.
What a great place!
I heard that the Central Plains experienced ups and downs, and the former Tang Dynasty was extremely weak and then perished. The sun was rising in the new dynasty, and the Forbidden Army was so fierce that it made people feel melancholy.
Iron cavalry, it is difficult for the two armies to raid Shan and Kuo provinces for half a year, killing all the tribes until they were so pissed off that they knelt down and begged for surrender. Let alone defeat them, it was difficult to compete with them with superior force.
When hundreds of cavalry in the grassland can overwhelm thousands of infantry in the Central Plains, it will be their turn to live happily in the colorful world of Luoyang.
It's a pity that he won't be able to see this day, and his son and grandson may not be able to see it either, unless the Xia people themselves are in civil strife.
At present, all the tribes can do is to donate their legitimate daughters to Zanpu for enjoyment, cattle and sheep to sacrifice to the warriors, and warriors to fight for the saints, in order to obtain some rewards, stabilize their status, and gradually increase their strength.
.
But he also saw some "positive" signs.
The men in Luoyang are a bit superficial. They are not as good as their fathers and have never seen any blood.
This is still the second generation. If it is the third or fourth generation, it may be even worse. At least, the second generation Luo Yangzi is still familiar with martial arts and can form formations very quickly. He does not believe that future generations can still do it.
at this point.
"Army of trouble-shooting!" A cavalry army passed quickly from the side, and the people in Hehuangfan exclaimed.
Liang Xiangjian's face darkened.
Alas, these ferocious Imperial Guards are the protectors of Daxia.
He turned around and looked at his nephews and nephews who were following him. Seeing the fear on their faces, he felt even more depressed.
The iron cavalry was determined to defeat the second army. If they were ruthless, they would even kill their servants. They didn't care about pushing their own people to the other side.
In their view, killing one is killing, killing two is killing, and killing them all is nothing. In the end, the Hehuang warriors all thought hard to join the cavalry, and it was difficult for the second army to eat the imperial rations, because following them would make more money and win the battle.
, I can also settle down in the Central Plains, everything is good.
No one understands my lofty ambitions! Liang Xiangjian could only sigh bitterly.
"Dong dong dong..." The drum beat outside the Shangdong Gate all day long.
Soldiers from the vassal town, countrymen from Tu Tuan, and strong men from the Tibetan tribe marched eastward one after another. The chariots and horses were like dragons, and the crowds were surging. Tens of thousands of soldiers filled the entire land, pressing toward Hebei like black clouds.
