On the afternoon of this day, Dong Hao was training his newly recruited soldiers, and after more than a month of busyness, Pingsheng Sixiang finally gathered a scale, and the strength of the army has expanded from the original 4ooo people to 2ooo people, reaching the number of 6ooo troops. Sister-in-law Suo Ke Erer said that the most sinister Yanqing girl said that Bayi Chinese Network w?w?w?.8?1zw.com Since Zhou Bo was robbed, although Ezhou City was worried for a while, there were no clues, so time could only gradually dilute the worries, and then Zhai Xuan and Li Hui fought to the death.

It is precisely because of this that Zhai Xuan has won a lot of supplies for Dong Hao, so that Dong Hao can finally continue to recruit refugees as soldiers. Although Dong Hao's mood fluctuated a little because of Zhou Bo's affairs, he also felt that maybe the current result was the best for Zhou Bo.

Dong Hao stood on a hillside outside Xingou Town, looking at the soldiers who were training in the wilderness outside the barracks. He is still a little worried, in addition to the temporary promotion of a group of team commanders and escort teams among these soldiers, there is a shortage of middle and senior generals, and even several battalion commanders and escort teams under his old subordinates have been promoted to become senior officers, can he rest assured of such a command?

At this moment, a guard hurriedly ran to the bottom of the hillside and reported to Dong Haoyu: "Dong Shuai, there is a general Niu Gao Niu outside the camp gate, please see you." ”

Dong Hao was slightly stunned, what is General Niu looking for me to do? Although he has a lot of relationship with Niu Gao, he has been busy training troops these days, and he has not had much contact with Niu Gao. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Please ask General Niu to come to my big tent and wait for a while, and say that I will be there soon." ”

The guard nodded, "Yes!" and hurried away.

Dong Hao handed over the training to a few deputies, and then walked down the hill, got on the horse and went to the military tent in the camp. When he came to the Zhongjun tent, Niu Gao was already waiting here, and he didn't have much of an entourage today, so he came to visit alone.

After Niu Gao met Dong Hao, because of his relatively rough personality, he knew that he had a very shallow relationship with Dong Hao and had a deep friendship, even though Dong Hao's official position was higher than his own. But they didn't salute or anything. He stood up and greeted Dong Hao, sighed heavily, and said, "Dong Shuai, have you heard about the mess in Suizhou?"

Dong Haoping withdrew from a group of subordinates. A little tired, he walked to the back of the handsome case and sat down, and said: "I have heard a little, but isn't Ezhou City already sending people to analyze this matter? I am very busy these days, and there is an urgent shortage of generals in my battalion, and these soldiers are no matter how big or small. I'll have to take care of it myself. ”

Niu Gao saw that Dong Hao didn't seem to care, and he was in a bad mood, so he immediately said again: "Dong Shuai, don't you know that this matter is very strange? Someone used the name of our Ezhou City Army to deceive the people of Suizhou, but as a result, the people of Suizhou really drove away the Qi army stationed in Suizhou. It's just that there is no trace of the Song army in these ordinary people, and the next day they were killed by the Qi army that came to the aid of Yingzhou!"

Dong Hao nodded thoughtfully and said, "Maybe this is because a certain common man can't stand the oppression of the Qi army, so he uses the Song army to recover Suizhou." Good to mobilize the enthusiasm of others****. ”

Niu Gao shook his head and said: "If this is the case, then why didn't you give birth before, but you want to give birth at this time?" You know, the Qi army has occupied Suizhou for several months, and the most severe burning and looting is the few days when the city has just been broken, how can it be Chinese New Year's Eve?"

Dong Hao smiled and said, "Brother Niu, where are we right about this." The first romance was really resentful for a long time, and it broke out on that day. That's not a sure thing. ”

Niu Gao sneered twice and said, "Dong Shuai, I personally went to ask those refugees who fled from Suizhou. They all said that they had seen the Qi army camp fall by the Song army. After the fire was lit, the uprising began. Moreover, in advance, it was also after the people who claimed to be Song Jun secretly went to Suizhou, contacted some large local families, united everyone, and arranged a careful plan of action. They responded. ”

When Dong Hao heard this, he couldn't help but be suspicious, and immediately asked, "Is that really what you said?"

Niu Gao nodded, and replied with a stern face: "It's true, it's more than a dozen Suizhou people who don't know each other, and they are now locked up in my camp." I interrogated them separately, and they were all able to tell their household registration, ancestors, and home addresses, so it can be seen that they were not carefully impersonated. ”

Dong Hao felt strange in his heart, and became more and more interested in this matter, he carefully analyzed it, and then said: "If this is the case, it is very likely that there is another group of people, who formulated a complete plan, incited the people of Suizhou, and then took advantage of the chaos to kill the Qi army?"

Niu Gao smiled and immediately said, "Dong Shuai, I think so too. It seems that Qi Gou is really unpopular, and he can provoke enemies everywhere, maybe it is the rebel army that is wreaking havoc in the rear of the enemy-occupied area. ”

Dong Hao pondered for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. If it was a rebel army, it would be impossible for them to deceive the common people, and then run away after killing Qi Gou themselves. General Niu, you used to be a rebel army, if you were to wreak havoc in the enemy's rear, would you let so many resentful people not organize, but only care about killing the Qi army?"

Niu Gao was stunned when he heard Dong Hao say this. I think that when he organized the rebel army in Hebei, the more people the better, and only when there are more people can we effectively organize the resistance force. But it is obvious that if Suizhou has a group of rebels behind the Shandong mob uprising, then why don't they directly accept the people of Suizhou, but choose to give up on them and run away directly?

He took a breath and hurriedly asked Dong Hao: "Dong Shuai, what you said makes sense, but what is going on?"

Dong Hao shook his head, looking very confused, and sighed and said, "I don't know either." Now we are not sure if there is another way of survival. However, I always felt that this was not a good thing. Because although the Qi army was driven away this time, it was only a day before the Qi army came back and slaughtered so many people. Do you think it's a victory?"

Niu Gao's face was solemn, and he hesitated for a long time before he said, "Alas, it's indeed a bit unsatisfactory. If you want me to go, I will definitely kill the Qi army in Suizhou cleanly, and then make a surprise attack on Yingzhou, and attack Ezhou here, and I will definitely be able to defeat Qi Gou. It's a pity............ Those old immortals in Ezhou City. Every day he only knows about the struggle for power, and he has no intention of military action at all. ”

Dong Hao smiled bitterly twice, and said to Niu Gao reproachfully: "You can just say this to me, don't talk nonsense outside." Passing it out will only be bad for you. ”

Niu Gao naturally knew that he scolded Li Hui in front of Li Hui last time because of Zhou Bo's matter, and he didn't dare to enter the city casually these days, for fear of being overshadowed by Li Hui. However, he has an impulsive temperament and some unpleasant things. I can't always hold it in my heart. "But I'm telling the truth," he said. Dong Shuai, you have also seen that a refugee riot can drive Qi Gou away from Suizhou City, if I can lead people to lurk behind the enemy, I must directly destroy Qi Gou's 50,000 army and recover at least two states. ”

Dong Hao just sighed, but he didn't want to say anything, everyone knew the current situation in Ezhou City, and no one could change anything.

Dong Hao just sighed, but he didn't want to say anything, everyone knew the current situation in Ezhou City. There's nothing anyone can do to change anything. In fact, the Qi army has been stalemate in Xiangyang Mansion for so long, and it has long been tired, even if there is no need to flank at this time, as long as the army is sent to cross the Han River and fight the Qi army head-on, the Qi army can be defeated in one fell swoop. Originally, this was just an order, and there were so many generals who were willing to go to war that there was no need for those ministers who were greedy for life and afraid of death to carry it out.

It's just that no one can guess what these fathers and gentlemen are thinking!

Niu Gao saw that Dong Hao didn't speak, and his heart was a little anxious, he sighed and said, "Dong Shuai." The Sprinkle family was in a panic in their hearts, otherwise, let's unite with the brothers privately and kill Yingzhou. ”

Dong Hao immediately got up. He said in a positive voice: "What nonsense are you talking about! Isn't it disobeying military orders to go out to the army without permission, and if something goes wrong, the consequences may affect the overall situation." Moreover, now those fathers and gentlemen in Ezhou hate the most disobedience to orders. Didn't you see the end of Zhou Bo? If you privately sent troops out to attack Yingzhou, I dare to say that Ezhou City would never send a single reinforcement, let alone a stone of grain and grass to support!"

Niu Gao listened to Dong Hao's words, and his mood suddenly fell into a trough again. He thought of Zhou Bo again, and suddenly a wave of annoyance and unconvincing feelings surged all over his body, and he couldn't calm down for a while.

Dong Hao eased his breath and said, "Brother Niu, you are on the cusp of the storm now, don't you know yourself?"

Niu Gao snorted and said, "What happened to the Sprinkle family?"

Dong Hao said: "You scolded Li Xuanfu Xianggong last time, do you think Li Xuanfu Xianggong is a generous person? He must have a grudge in his heart and is looking for your bad luck." If you don't be careful, I'm afraid that Li Xuanfu will be stunned for a while, and it will be a catastrophe. ”

As soon as Niu Gao heard the name of "Li Hui" now, he was so angry that his teeth itched. He said hatefully: "How about the old man who dares to sa the family? The 6ooo brother in the hands of the Sprinkle family is not surnamed Li, he is in a hurry, and the Sprinkle family will directly fight with him!"

Dong Hao couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly said: "Brother Niu, don't be rash! Alas! If you don't change your irritable temper, sooner or later you will get into trouble." ”

Niu Gao now thinks that it means nothing to come to Dong Hao, talking and talking, Dong Hao looks restrained, and it really has no effect. He sighed, stood up and said, "That's it, the Sprinkle family won't bother Dong Shuai anymore." The Sprinkle family went back by themselves, hoping that there would be some good opportunity for the Sprinkle family to bully Qi Gou. ”

Dong Hao thought that Niu Gao was angry, and originally wanted to persuade a few words, but Niu Gao was an anxious person, and he hurriedly left the Zhongjun tent without looking back. He had no choice but to give up. After waiting for Niu Gao, his mind got up again, and he didn't know what was going on with this incident in Suizhou.

The events of the riots in Suizhou have become more and more influential as time goes on. First of all, Ezhou was a little worried and took a series of measures. Immediately afterward, even the Qi army was panicked.

The army sent by Yingzhou to suppress the Suizhou riot immediately knew the whole story of the riot after killing many of the Suizhou mob and arresting some people for torture. This made the Qi army very stunned, they originally thought that as long as they held Yingzhou, the Song army would never be able to go around the rear, but the facts turned out to be wrong, there were many ways for the Song army to infiltrate the rear. This time I don't know whether to say it was a fluke or if it was just a farce, the Song army defeated the Qi army in Suizhou, and at the same time succeeded in mobilizing a mob uprising, but in the end it did not attack Yingzhou from the rear.

This question has not been completely solved to this day.

However, in any case, this riot reminded the Qi army that the defensive ability of the Yingzhou front line was absolutely insufficient. In order to prevent the recurrence of this kind of thing, and in order to completely solve the worries of the future, the generals of the Qi army in Yingzhou, after some discussion, decided to disperse their forces into Ruokang strongholds along the line of the Han River, and completely defend the passages that can be detoured to the rear.

Of course, in order to prevent the troops from being broken one by one after they were dispersed, the Qi army studied a method. That is, the entire Hanshui defense line was divided into three major defense areas, and each large defense area set up a general stronghold, controlling more than 10,000 troops. Within the large defense area, where there are circuitous paths, woodlands or mountains, a number of small defense areas are set up, and a small sentry village and a beacon tower are established in each defense area. Only 50 soldiers were stationed in these sentry villages, and once a large number of troops of the Song army appeared, they immediately lit the beacon fire, and the major defense areas immediately organized reinforcements to come to block it.

This method finally made the senior generals of the Qi army feel at ease, thinking that in this way, things such as the Suizhou riots would naturally not be repeated. Moreover, they were also complacent, believing that this Hanshui defense line would definitely be able to hold on to the Song army in Ezhou for ten years.

However, when this situation reached Zhou Bo's ears, he couldn't help but smile coldly, it seemed that it wouldn't be long before he would be able to act again. Moreover, this operation is obviously much richer than robbing a garrison camp in a small county town in Suizhou.

Time has entered February in a blink of an eye, and Zhou Bo's mountain nest is getting bigger and bigger. Most of the simple wooden houses that had been improvised had now been replaced by a mix of stone and wood. The women also had a job, either herding cattle and feeding the horses, sewing clothes and cultivating the fields, trying to make life as normal as before.

The law enacted by Zhou Bo and Li Xiucai was also officially announced, but because most people are illiterate, it is more troublesome to promote. But he officially announced to everyone that as long as everyone is relatively peaceful, this set of laws will not interfere with normal life, unless someone acts wantonly, then regardless of whether they understand this set of laws in advance or not, he will be heavily punished!!

In addition, he also trained the more than 200 standing samurai under his command, copying the content of his military training in the 21st century, and led these samurai to train for at least eight hours a day. As for the other hundreds of young people, they have become idle on weekdays, and occasionally there are rumors of gathering together to gamble and other activities.

For gambling, Li Xiucai has rules and prohibitions. However, Zhou Bo also knew that if these people didn't find something to do, sooner or later they would be idle and wasted. So, he asked Wang Kui to organize these people to train every day, but the training time was only four hours, and the rest of the time was to select a group of honest-looking people to go down the mountain to wander around the towns of Ezhou to find out some news, and some other people took turns to be on guard near the mountains, so as not to expose anyone by mistake to the mountain nest.
