The 475th Thousand Miles Chase (8)

Zhang Xian was late, and he was full of dust. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I was waiting for Luo Ye when I was late, and my face was full of dust because I was in a hurry.

Luo Ye went to inquire about the intelligence on the front line, thousands of miles away, even the best letter eagle would have to take a long time to deliver the letter to the secret spies, and then return the information from them, how long it would take, it was difficult to predict.

Therefore, even if Zhang Xian was in a hurry to hunt down and kill Kunhua, he had to wait in Suyu City, and the major military affairs were much bigger than chasing and killing a person.

After all, the efficiency of the intelligence officers of the Red Evil was really surprisingly high, and in the middle of the night, Luo Ye came back.

It turned out that the information was already on the way, but it hadn't reached Luo Ye's hands yet, Luo Ye urged it, and the person who sent the letter also knew Luo Ye's location, so he sent it directly, otherwise he didn't know how many times it changed hands before it could be delivered to Luo Ye.

In fact, the information had already been sent to the Taiwei Mansion, that is, the one that the Taiwei Mansion transferred to Zhang Xian, but this information was not very detailed, and the one given to Luo Ye was the second piece of information, which was very detailed.

Why didn't the second piece of information be forwarded to the Taiwei Mansion?

Because there is no time, the situation is serious, and the people of the Red Evil know that the king and the pavilion owner are in the southeast mountainous area, so they send it in the fastest and most concise way, if it is sent to the Taiwei Mansion, complete various procedures, and then forward to the king, it will have to be delayed for at least two days, and in these two days, the information will be sent to the king or the pavilion owner.

This is for sure, because Luo Ye has not received the first piece of information yet, or because the situation is urgent, the Taiwei Mansion used the letter eagle to find Zhang Xian.

There are some things that the Taiwei Mansion can't decide, and Zhang Xian, the king, is not in Kyoto, so he has no choice but to use this method to deliver the news and let Zhang Xian decide.

As for the generals of the Corps on the front line, the Red Evil Intelligence is constantly provided, according to the regulations, although they have the right to make decisions on the spot, they also have to report to the Taiwei Mansion, but this procedure is much slower, and it is reported layer by layer, and when it is in the hands of Taiwei Chen Gongwei and General Liu Yong, it will take several days.

The Taiwei Mansion is gathering people to study and formulate strategies, and finally report to the king for approval, and have to coordinate various departments to mobilize money and food, etc., and this set of procedures has been going on for a long time, so the information of the Red Evil will first be provided to the commander of the corps on the front line, and then prepare a copy to be sent to the Taiwei Mansion.

After receiving the information, the front line made preparations for response and waited for the order of the Taiwei Mansion, so that it would not be so passive.

Because of this procedure that cannot be changed, during the Eastern Crusade, Zhang Xian not only personally conquered, but also brought the Taiwei Mansion directly to the battlefield, so that there was no need to pass thousands of miles of time-consuming and laborious transmission of paperwork orders.

Wu Yue Hou Qin Hao has already begun to act, he really made preparations with both hands as Zhang Xian speculated, and the number of soldiers and horses has increased to two million, not counting the follow-up reinforcements and troops escorting grain and grass.

The situation is very serious.

But there is one thing that makes Zhang Xian more gratified, that is, the rainy weather in the upper reaches of the Li River for more than ten days has caused the water level of the Li family to skyrocket, and there have even been floods of varying degrees in some places.

This Qin army has caused many obstacles, and the Qin navy is too weak to be useful at all, the Li River is rising, and they can't ferry, this Zhang Xian bought time to deal with it.

First of all, Zhang Yu's navy quickly marched against the river to support the coalition army, and then several corps stationed on the south bank of the Li River were ready to face the battle, with Zhu Jian and Liu Ke there, Zhang Xian was still at ease.

Zhang Xian and Luo Ye made corresponding countermeasures according to the intelligence overnight, sent dozens of urgent letters in a row, and set off for Zhuma City as soon as it was dawn.

After running for a day and a night and half a day, I rushed to Zhuma City.

"Where's the woman?"

Zhang Xian wiped his face, and asked Zhao Bengao, on the way he had been confirmed, that woman was Li Wei.

He hurriedly asked Xiao Fei to contact Luo Yu on the way back and inform him that he had found the Meizu person.

Luo Yu and Zhang Xian didn't take the same road, because they still had to pick up the barbarian spirit Tengyu of Luoling City, because Luo Yu was pregnant, Luo Xuan, who originally entered Yancheng with Zhang Xian, but never showed up, led her Thorn Hall elite to secretly guard, plus the ghost mother-in-law was also there, there was no powerful person, or several half-step legendary masters to attack, basically there was no problem.

But even so, the ghost mother-in-law and Zhang Xian did not dare to be careless, the news that Luo Yu was pregnant with the prince is still in the secret stage, if the news leaks out, it will definitely be a big event, without the participation of foreign forces, the remnants of the big slave owners who have been destroyed by Zhang Xian in Chu will not give up this excellent opportunity to retaliate against Zhang Xian.

If Luo Yu was in the palace of Shangjing City, those people could only sigh even if they had this idea.

"In the inner hall, she was only temporarily sealed for her cultivation, and she was not abused, or treated. ”

Zhao Bengao hurriedly reported.

"That's good, you've worked hard.

Let's set off after a day's rest, the road is long, the task is urgent, you are a very important strange army against Qin, and if you don't have important things along the way, don't pay attention to them. ”

"Yes. ”

The Black Flag Army cavalry was stranded in Zhuma City for more than a day, which had already implicated them a lot.

Therefore, Zhang Xian urged them to hurry as soon as possible, and paid attention to explaining the importance of their fight against Qin, and tried not to care about other things on the way.

The matter of Zhuma City was the idea of the Eagle Demon, and this matter was indeed not small, so Zhang Xian did not blame them.

Zhang Xian planned to let them leave tomorrow, but he didn't expect Zhao Bengao and Yue Shanqian to set off overnight after they went back.

The next day the infantry of the Black Flag Army arrived.

Zuo Xuan, Liao Jinkui, and Zhang Xian only met briefly before hurrying on the road.

As soon as the Black Flag Army left, the ghost mother-in-law arrived.

"Where's Liwei?"

"Uncle Tai, go ahead, Li Wei, please come over. ”

Zhang Xian asked Uncle Tai to invite Li Wei out in the back hall, why is it invited, no way, Li Wei is a Meizu person, and a person who has cultivated to break through the Holy Master and broke the curse of Meizu, the ghost mother-in-law attaches great importance to her, how dare Zhang Xian treat her slowly.

The ghost mother-in-law was worried about Luo Yu's safety, and when she saw Li Wei, she didn't say anything or stay, and left with Li Wei with an ignorant face.

Zhuma City calmed down again in a blink of an eye, but the people in the city didn't know that the king of Xia was in their county office, talking to the county commander Zhu Dan.

"You mean, these bandits are attacking the city in an organized way?"

Zhang Xian was very busy in the past two days, and he only met with Zhu Xianling, and when he was busy, the Black Flag Army also passed, and Li Wei was also picked up, so he had time to communicate with Zhu Dan.

From Luo Ye's intelligence, Zhang Xian learned that this Zhu Dan is very capable and upright, and it is a bit condescending to be a county commander, but now is not the time to promote him, when he has managed Zhuma County and made achievements, I believe that the Prime Minister's Mansion will not bury him.

"Yes, they seem to have been brainwashed, although they are all some people with low cultivation, and even most of them are ordinary people, but they are under the persuasion and command of the leader, and they are not afraid of life and death. ”

Zhu Dan is still a little afraid, although he was very calm at the time, but he also expected the consequences, without reinforcements, their end is death, who is not afraid of death?

Only by living can you do something, but what Zhu Dan wanted at that time was not to run for his life, but to be more heroic even if he died.

But in hindsight, I did have some palpitations and fears.

Zhang Xian made eye contact with Luo Ye.

"'Yuxuan Sect'!"

"'Yuxuan Sect'?"

Zhu Dan was stunned for a moment.

"I've heard the news from the county guard, but I didn't expect that the poor place of Zhuma County Ya would also be remembered by them, hehe, for money, their target should be those merchants, right?"

Zhu Dan felt a little incredible, no matter what kind of religion it was, or bandits, the purpose of attacking the city was nothing more than money, but Zhumacheng was very poor, there were very few people, and the county government didn't even have all the office utensils, let alone money.

To say that some of the wealth is those inns and shops, the target of the bandit robbery is only reasonable, his Qing Shui Yamen, all the things are not enough to fill a cart, the real bandits disdain, so he feels weird.

"Hehe, I think they're building momentum, and as for those merchants, they don't dare to move, or they have colluded with them. ”

Luo Ye sneered.

"Many towns have been attacked and disturbed by the rogues, and there are also many local officials and officials who have been killed, I think some of them are real rogues, and some of them are being sabotaged by the 'Yuxuan Sect', hmph, whether it is the rogue or the 'Yuxuan Sect', in order to ensure the safety of the local government and the people's lives, public order and stability, we must take some thunderous measures to deter it, so let's do it, Xiao Fei intends to 、、、 it."

Zhang Xian originally arranged for the Wuwei Legion to advance westward, but seeing that the situation in the rear was too chaotic, he only relied on the Fenwei Legion to partially suppress the bandits.

Now some of the Shenwei army is still in the southeast mountainous area, and some of them are rushing to the fortress, and they have not really evacuated the eastern part of the Chu realm, and the bandits are already so rampant, and when they withdraw, it will be repaid, how can the local government be established.

So Zhang Xian changed his mind and sent an edict to Chai Ming of the Wuwei Legion, asking him to leave some men and horses to assist in the establishment of county soldiers and suppression of bandits in the southeast mountainous areas, and most of the men and horses went out of the mountains to assist the Fenwei Legion to clear the remnants of the bandits, and completed the task within two months, and then the whole army rushed to Donglu County.

"I wanted to leave the rear to the Fenwei Army, but it seems that I was in a bit of a hurry. ”

"Hehe,"

Luo Ye smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"It's not that Your Majesty is in a hurry, but that you are worried that the Qin army will break through the Li River, so what you are thinking about is how to transfer your troops to the front line as soon as possible, so that you ignore it, it is difficult to stabilize the rear in a short time by relying only on the Fenwei army. ”

"Li Jiang looks very crisis, but Your Majesty, don't ignore the three conditions of heaven, earth and people, heaven, you see that we are cloudless here, but Wuwei Kingdom has been gloomy and 、、、、、、 on both sides of the Li River to the west."
