Chapter 509, How Many Heroes at a Time 2

Bai Qi smiled coldly: "Sure enough, it's a character." 【Latest chapter reading. Send my orders, and send thirty sergeants to bring this man. ”

Li Yan was taken aback: "General, with such a method of inviting people, I'm afraid he won't be able to answer the order." Bai Qi said: "I don't want him to answer the order, but to lock him up and put him in the gate." Such a person will serve the court sooner or later, and if he can't be used by my Qin army, he will be killed by my Qin army. ”

Li Yan still shook his head: "The world is in turmoil, those grass heroes, people of insight, are thinking about the master, if you kill Zhang Huangyan, I am afraid that the folk will say that the king of Qin can not be a corporal of courtesy, who else dares to come to the Qin army in the future, Cao C did not kill Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms, just to collect the heart of the world's talents, and hope that the general will think twice." ”

Bai Qi said: "Li Gongzi's words, but only know one, do not know the second, I have read the later history books, the Three Kingdoms time is very different from today, at that time, the power of the court, has long been gone, there are few people in the world loyal to the court, so those candidates are recruiting talents, today the prestige of the court has not been completely lost, most of the officials and civil scholars are to the court, will never come to us." At this time, we need to pay equal attention to grace and power, and we can't just keep our voices down. In many cases, the power of the sword is far greater than the power of morality. ”

Li Yan pondered for a long time, and then nodded slowly: "The general's words are also reasonable. ”

Bai Qi said: "Li Gongzi has already invited him once last time, Qin Jun's courtesy has been exhausted, and he still doesn't know how to lift, so it's no wonder to me." ”

Li Yan had no choice but to nod.

Bai Qi sent thirty soldiers to Zhang Huangyan's house and made sure to get him.

Unexpectedly, an hour later, those soldiers came back to hand in the order, but they were empty-handed, it turned out that they rushed to Zhang Huangyan's house, but it was already General Tie who guarded the door, and the house was empty.

Bai Qi shook his head lightly: "This person is also shrewd. Li Yan said: "He is treating us as Li Zicheng and using the same method to avoid trouble." Bai Qi said: "No matter, the army can't delay time for him, Guanzhong is empty at this time, and he must go back quickly." ”

Li Yan said: "I just went to check the recruitment book, and there are tens of thousands of people recruited, what should these people do?" Do you want to go back to Guanzhong together? ”

Bai Qi said: "No, these people must be difficult to leave their homeland, and they insisted that they go to Guanzhong in a hurry, first, they will not let their family go here, and secondly, if they are mixed in the middle, it is really not safe, so let's leave these people in Ruyang first, under the command of Wang Leopard." Let him check to see if anyone has volunteered to go to Guanzhong, and those people who have volunteered to go to Guanzhong can also go with the army. ”

Li Yan said: "This shouldn't be difficult. In the past two years, there have been frequent disasters and famines in Henan, and the land annexation situation is serious, many people have no land to cultivate, and Guanzhong has always had fertile land, and it is very stable, and there should be many people willing to go. ”

Bai nodded: "Very good, as long as these people are willing to go, the soldiers who have been recruited will definitely be willing to go." This matter cannot be delayed, and it should be done quickly. ”

Li Yan said: "Does the general think that this place in Ruyang is far away from Tongguan and is not easy to hold?" In the event of a siege by the enemy, it will be difficult to rescue. ”

Bai Qi said: "That's right, this place is closer to Luoyang, that is to say, it is very close to Li Zicheng, in case Li Zicheng is unwilling to let the Qin army share the land of Henan with him, then he will definitely come to attack, so Ruyang is in danger of being lost." But if you defend Ruyang with heavy troops, there is no need for this. There is no danger to defend around Ruyang, and it is easy to be captured, so I feel that after a while, when the situation is clearer, I will ask the king to withdraw to Ruyang and make every effort to consolidate the Nanyang line. ”

Li Yan said: "Yes, the terrain of Nanyang is complex, and there are several rivers, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and this place can enter Huguang in the south and Anhui in the east, so it can be used." ”

Bai Qi said: "It seems that the meaning of the son is the same as mine, so it is decided." I will leave a warrant for Wang Bao to obey. Li Gongzi also hurry up and prepare, let's return to the army the day after tomorrow. ”

After the order was finished, Bai Qi gave Wang Bao an order, asking him to count the families among the people who were willing to move to Guanzhong, and then pack up their homes and go on the road with the army, and the food along the way was completely supplied by the Qin army.

This edict was written as a notice and posted on the streets of Ruyang City, and it was posted all the way to the surrounding countryside, causing a great response among the people for a while.

Ruyang City and the surrounding villagers, has suffered several times of fire, first Li Zicheng came, attacked the city, chaos for a while, and so Li Zicheng sent troops to garrison, just settled down, Li Zicheng went to Shanxi, and then Zuo Liangyu hit again, the military discipline of the left army is extremely bad, murder and arson, J violent plunder, all evil, the people have been killed and injured countless times, and when the Qin army comes again, it is not easy to settle down again, and the people's hearts have been terrified to the extreme.

In addition, Wang Bao also got a little clever, he added a few words to the notice, saying that after Zuo Liangyu's defeat, he was not reconciled, and hated the people of Ruyang for not trying their best to kill the enemy, and vowed to make a comeback.

As soon as this notice was issued, the crowd immediately boiled, which of the people dared to stay in Ruyang for a long time, they had already learned Zuo Liangyu's viciousness, if the left army came back again, everyone's head would be difficult to protect. Therefore, as soon as the notice came out, the people signed up one after another and agreed to move to Guanzhong.

Wang Bao smiled secretly, in fact, he didn't lie completely, who knows if Zuo Liangyu will kill him again, this is called taking precautions.

Bai Qi didn't expect that so many people would agree to relocate, and the army couldn't arrange it, so he hurriedly asked Li Yan, the Red Lady and others to come to help, and the Red Lady took the Qin army down to each household to help them move.

Originally, I was going to leave in two days, but because there were too many people and too many belongings, no livestock, grain, soft goods, clothes, and bedding could be pulled away by several carts.

In this way, five days passed in a row, and the move was not completely completed, and Bai Qi was anxious, and ordered to go down, and all the stupid household belongings should not be taken away, which would delay the trip and be vulnerable to attack on the way. If anyone dares to take these bulky belongings, they will all be burned on the spot.

In this way, the speed was really fast, and the next day, the people finally packed up completely, Bai Qi sent Li Yan to lead 10,000 horses as the front, and the people walked in the center, and they broke off the rear and marched towards Tongguan.

They had 30,000 people along the way, but there were more than 100,000 people, Bai Qi was afraid that there would be enemies on the way to attack, so he came up with an idea, he sent people to make hundreds of banners, asking the people to fight, and also issued some people with the Qin army's uniforms, from a distance, it seems that all of them are Qin soldiers and horses.

Along the way, the Qin army was huge, and the townships and counties near and far were all shocked. No one can guess how many men and horses there are in the Qin army.

From Ruyang to Tongguan, a distance of hundreds of miles, they walked for ten days before they arrived at Tongguan.

After entering the customs, he had already reported to Bai Qi and Li Yan that King Qin had issued three urgent edicts yesterday, asking them to rush back to Xi'an as soon as possible.

Li Yan and Bai Qi asked what happened, and said: "It is likely to be Li Zicheng's matter, I disappeared more than ten days ago, Sun Chuanting has secretly entered Shanxi, and together with Wang Qiaonian, he and Li Zicheng are facing each other in the Fushan area, I don't know what the battle situation is, but King Qin may have known, so I let the two of them rush back to Xi'an overnight." ”

Bai Qi said: "Okay, Li Gongzi, about these people, is it okay to hand over the matter of resettlement all the way to the red girl?" ”

Li Yan nodded: "It's completely okay, needless to say that it will be handed over to the red girl, even if it is handed over to others, I can rest assured, because a year ago, when Qin Jun recruited displaced people, he had already formulated a whole set of policies, which is equivalent to digging a pit for radishes in advance, and if one comes, one will be planted, and there will be no mistakes in the quasi-guarantee, and there will never be a civil uprising." ”

Bai Qi said: "Well, the red girl has also followed you to settle the homeless people, and with her in charge, there will be no extraneous branches." The two of us rushed back to Xi'an immediately. ”

The two discussed, Li Yan found the red lady and Yizhimei, and explained, the two female generals nodded and agreed, and then Li Yan and Bai Qi took five hundred cavalry and hurried back to Xi'an to meet the king of Qin.

After coming to the Qin Palace, he saw Zhang Yi at the gate of the mansion, and when he saw them, Zhang Yi smiled and said, "You guys are back a little late." Li Yan hurriedly said: "No way, there are too many people brought back from Ruyang, and the military and civilians are mixed along the way, so I can't go." ”

Zhang Yi said: "This king already knows, and the two of them have added a population to Guanzhong, which is a good thing." Therefore the king will not blame you. Please come back to me. ”

While walking, Bai Qi asked, "Sir, the king hurriedly ordered us to rush back, what happened?" ”

Zhang Yi stretched out two fingers and shook them: "Two things, a good thing that is not too good, and a bad thing that is not too bad." ”

Li Yan said with a smile: "Sir, don't sell it, hurry up and say it clearly." ”

Zhang Yi said: "Okay, do you listen to the good things first, or do you listen to the bad things first?" Li Yan said: "Listen first." Zhang Yi said: "The good news is about Li Zicheng, after he entered Shanxi, he killed Wang Qiaonian a few times, and won all of them, and he was about to defeat Wang Qiaonian's department, but at this time, Sun Chuanting suddenly led a large army to come, stabilized the corner of the official army, and gave Li Zicheng a knife behind the flank, Li Zicheng lost a lot of men and horses, and then the two sides began to confront each other. However, Li Zicheng's subordinates also had capable people, and they offered him a plan, asking Li Zicheng to contain Sun Chuanting with a partial division, and then lead the main force to bypass the official army and go straight to the capital. Li Zicheng adopted this plan, let people pretend to be himself, command the army, and he led 100,000 elite soldiers, bypassed Jincheng, passed through Huguan, and went to Beijing. ”
