Chapter 57: Hardhearted

Success is always a fluke, this is a wise saying of the Great Song Dynasty, but in later generations, a lot of success can be done by luck, such as the lottery, which does not require too advanced technology, only needs good enough luck.

Standing in front of a phalanx of more than 10,000 people early in the morning, it takes a certain amount of courage, but Yun Zheng doesn't need it, the people standing here are all his subordinates, although they are not real soldiers, but compared to the rest of the van army, they can be called the elite of the elite. Everyone was in good spirits, because today, the Lord was going to take them to the road of the Jiazi camp to make a fortune.

They also want to eat meat every day, and they also want to live in a house made of green bricks, and they even secretly want to have a cow, and the widows in Jiaziying have cows in their homes, and some families have more than one, and the old cow and the calf go to graze under the leadership of the widow's children, and they itch in their hearts when they look at them, and it would be nice if their own children led such a cow.

There are very terrible salt bandits in Luzhou, they do all kinds of evil, entrenched on the road from Luzhou to Yanzhou to rob the house is very comfortable, this is what the lord said, what he wants to do is to cut off the head of the salt bandits, rob their money, and say the lord, three percent belong to the individual, this is the rule of the Wusheng army.

The big guy had already asked the soldiers of the Jiazi Battalion to understand whether the general's speech was counted, and the soldiers of the Jiazi Battalion only responded to them with a shameful smile, and finally asked the veteran, and the veteran said slowly: "Does the general's speech count?" This is an interesting question, we will never ask like this in the Jiazi camp, and Lao Tzu will not tell you whether you count or not, Lao Tzu put the words here, if you die bravely, if your wife does not have a basket of copper coins to support the family, let your wife go to my house to fetch cattle. ”

Since the Lord's credibility is already high enough to be endorsed by others, it would be a bit of a mistake to doubt it again, so everyone has straightened their backs today, hoping that they will be fortunate enough to be the first people to follow the Jiazi Battalion to fight.

Yun Zheng didn't speak loudly. So everyone needs to listen calmly, it's good that a weak scholar can accompany everyone to train for so many days and still stand here, and dare to expect him to roar like a savage?

"The salt bandits are very powerful, and they have not been surrounded and suppressed by large armies in the early years. But ah, they all failed, it's funny to say, the dignified army was defeated by a group of bandits, so this time the prefect of Luzhou Mansion was willing to spend a lot of money to invite us to suppress the bandits, haha, it's funny to say, the bandits are actually our source of wealth, kill them, take their money. I don't think any of the brothers here will be embarrassed, and so will I.

But they are very powerful, so we also have to pay attention to one point, and also send our most powerful battalion to fight, and the most powerful battalion of Wusheng Army is Jiazi Battalion. I don't know if you have any opinions, I don't think you will have an opinion, after all, you have been beaten up badly by them these days......

If you are not convinced, take a step forward, let me see if it is those heroes, if you are not convinced, I will put you into the army of Jiazi Battalion, as long as you make meritorious contributions on the battlefield. Immediately enjoy the same treatment as them. I wonder if there is such a person? ”

As soon as Yun Zheng's words fell, a hundred and ten strong men sparsely drilled out of the team, took a step forward from the first row, and stood in front of Yun Zheng.

Yun Zheng looked at the last person from the first person all the way, looking at it very seriously, as if he wanted to remember the appearance of each of them firmly. From the beginning to the end, and from the end to the end, he stood in front of the team and said: "I took a little time to remember your faces, they are all good, this is the way of the world, support the bold and starve to death the cowardly." I promise you won't lose.

Since you don't know how to ride horses, you can only sit on the cart and move forward, all we have to do now is to raid the salt bandits, without giving them any time to prepare, let's go! ”

Yun Zheng turned over and rode on the big green horse, he was going to fight today, so he was also covered all over, and the soldiers of the Jiazi battalion stepped on their war horses at the same time under the leadership of Liang Ji, preparing to raid the salt bandits two hundred and eighty miles away.

Yun Zheng's destination is Rongzhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Luzhou Mansion, in the early years of the Great Song Dynasty. Rongzhou Fuyi County Shengfu Yi Supervisor, subordinate to Tongchuan Road; Rongzhou has jurisdiction over five counties: Xuchuan, Gongjing, Yingling, Weiyuan, and Ziguan, and Rongzhou belongs to Dongchuan Road. In the first year of Taiping Xingguo, Zhao Yi, Taizong of the Song Dynasty, was avoided, and Fuyi Prison was renamed Fushun Prison.

Since the Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor Zhangdi dug the first salt well in this area, here because of the salt town, because of the salt county, because of the salt set up the salt city, almost all the construction process is related to salt, in fact, here is also the richest state in Shu.

A spring of white jade, thousands of miles of gold, salt brought a rich harvest to the people here, but also bred another kind of livelihood, that is, robbers, Yun Zheng's purpose of this trip is to deal with the rich bandits here.

Because the well salt produced here can go directly to the Yangtze River from the bank of the Puxi River, and the land route can also reach Chengdu very smoothly, so as to disperse the salt here to the land of Bashu. Therefore, there are many thieves on land, and they have been wreaking havoc on the road from Rongzhou to Chengdu and Luzhou for many years, and now it is a good time to harvest.

The horse team of 1,200 people was running wantonly on the official road, and the mule carts behind were also chasing after them tightly, but Yun Zheng didn't plan to wait for them, as logistics personnel, what they needed to do was only after a big victory.

With Xiaolin in the army, Yun Zheng can always feel great happiness, he can always bring the most detailed local intelligence and information to the army, the Great Song Secret Spy Division may not have much ability to the outside world, but the monitoring of the mainland has indeed reached the peak of the peak.

"Niukou Mountain, this place is the dangerous place where we need to attack with all our might, speaking of which, you have to thank Gao Tansheng, when Gao Tansheng relied on an iron gun, he fought all over Shuzhong invincible, and the salt bandits in Rongzhou were also one of them, in order to manage well, Gao Tansheng set up an altar in Niukou Mountain, specifically competing with the platoon gang on the Yangtze River.

I don't pay attention to the Pai Gang, these people are not easy to mess with, it seems to be involved with the nobles in the capital, if you exterminate the Pai Gang, maybe not only will it be useless but will have it, and besides, you are not a water army, there is no way to take others, don't think about it.

Niukou Mountain this place since I heard that Gao Tansheng died and set himself up as the king, the current leader is called Qu Wuyi, this person is ruthless, through guò clever robbery, in a short period of time a large number of bandits, the number of no less than 600 people, Rongzhou Luzhou joined forces to conquer three times in vain, so, you don't take people Zhang Zhifu as a fool, people also know that Niukou Mountain is rich, but there is no way, the three conquests should be done not secret, leaked the news, twice in the air, once in the ambush of others, Governor Zhang himself almost died, so he hit it off with you. ”

Yun Zheng stretched out his hand and asked Xiaolin for a map, Xiaolin rolled his eyes and said: "Why do you think there are detailed maps in places, Niukou Mountain belongs to the place of three things, if it weren't for the fact that it was stuck on the main road for transporting salt, it is estimated that there would not even be a name, but according to Rongzhou's brother, the mountain is not dangerous, but the road is rugged, and it is difficult to walk over it without knowing it." ”

Yun Zheng looked up at the vast mountains, today's camp is thirty miles away from Niukou Mountain, and he can't go any further, and if he goes further, he will be discovered by the bandits in Niukou Mountain, once these people know that something is wrong and abscond in advance, there is no way to take these bandits who have gone into the mountains.

The old method of the Jiazi battalion, when the terrain is unknown, naturally a team of soldiers will go to investigate, but this time it is Xiaolin who leads the team, Wu Jie is second, Zhou Tong has not rushed back from Qinfeng Road, Wu Jie has become Yun Zheng's first choice.

Twelve soldiers stepped on the path in the afterglow of the setting sun, and when they approached Niukou Mountain, the sky should all be dark, today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, Xiaolin they have finished resting in the dark, and the first quarter moon should appear in the west, although the moon will only appear for two hours, and then disappear in the west, but these times are enough time for them to explore the terrain of Niukou Mountain and return.

The weather was overcast and cold, and the mist in the mountains slowly rose soon after the sun set, swimming close to the ground, like a cold snake, Yun Zheng did not allow the ignition of fire, and all the personnel of the Jiazi Battalion had to wrap their thick clothes tightly, and the vigorous exercise during the day consumed most of the calories in the body, and now that it is quiet, it looks extremely cold.

"Sleep!" A military leader hurried over with a blanket wrapped around his head, stopping the whispering of his subordinates, and the rest before the battle was very important.

Yun Zheng's body was buried in the fur, at this time he didn't want to do anything, he had to send the arrow, what kind of person Qu Wuyi was, he didn't know, and he didn't want to know, he only knew that Wu Shengjun needed the wealth they robbed very much, since his goal was more just, he didn't have to think about whether his behavior was appropriate enough.

In the seemingly incorruptible world of the Great Song Dynasty, the law of the jungle is still believed in when the skin is removed, and the law of the jungle has always been the main way of behavior in this land, but we have packaged it in a lot of beautiful language, Yun Zheng's favorite sentence is "Success and defeat." ”

The monkey lay beside the young master and listened to his long breathing, and couldn't help but quiet down, he had already experienced a lot of big battles, and he still felt nervous when it came to the end, as for Han Niu, he didn't know what it was like to be nervous, his snoring sounded, Steward Liao said that Han Niu was heartless, maybe it was really like this, but how to describe the young master's appearance, Mrs. seems to have commented on the young master, saying what is he doing? It seems to be iron-hearted, yes, it's these four words, iron-hearted!
