Chapter 159: Cheng Pu (I)

"Be careful!"

Boom~

An exclamation suddenly rang out from the wilderness, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

"Old man, are you alright?"

"Ahem! Thank you, sir! Decay is no problem. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he wanted to stretch his legs and feet to say that it was okay, but was stopped by Cheng Pu, and then helped him to sit down in a corner of the carriage. The man who has been accompanying the smiling face and looks like the descendant of the old man doesn't pay any attention to it.

He didn't mean to blame, but it was a sudden heavy snowfall on this day, and it was understandable that there was an accident. Besides, he had already saved the person in time, so what's the point of blaming.

"Hey, this snow, it's really not happening at the right time!"

Looking at the snowflakes that gradually drifted again, Cheng Pu sighed in his heart, bowed his hand to the old man, turned over his horse, and went forward.

Cheng Pu's trip was to escort more than 18,000 people to Xiangping, and this matter still had to start from Xianbei going south a few months ago-

Although Gongsun Du walked into the eyes of Tanshi Huai, but in the end the strength is too weak, only one or two hundred thousand people, if it is not for the fact that there are many Han people and another year of development, maybe he doesn't even want to send Yu Wenzhu over.

Therefore, Shanggu, Yuyang, and Youbei Pingping counties were attacked earlier than Liaodong. Especially in Youbeiping, the defenders can be said to be defeated at the touch of a button, directly cutting off the connection between Liaoxi, Changli, Xuansu, Liaodong and other places and the Central Plains.

Perhaps this is also the purpose of the original sandalwood acacia, which wants to close the door...... Directly cut off the Han to the east of the right Beiping!

Subsequently, Liaoxi, Changli and other counties were broken before they could hold out for long, and without him, they were panicked and had lost the heart to resist.

If Gongsun Du hadn't beaten Xianbei too hard in Xuansu and Liaodong, they had received orders to support and had not carried out large-scale looting and massacres, and most of the people would not have survived, or at least been taken captive.

Although Xianbei went, there were still Xianbei barbarians near the left, and there was a broken city, and the prestige was still there, except for the large families who united together and fled south to the Central Plains, the rest of the ordinary people fled to the east.

It is not to Liaodong and Xuansu, but to hide among the mountains of Yiwu Lu Mountain.

Later, Gongsun Du won the victory and repelled Xianbei, and the people in the mountains got the news, so they went to the nearest Liao team together. Of course, there are also people as bold as Cheng Pu who went to the Liao team early, but unfortunately, not everyone is Cheng Pu, plus the northerners are not good at water, so many people have died, and only a few have entered the Liao team with Cheng Pu.

So far, the Liao army has accepted more than 100,000 displaced people.

However, if you think about it, although the population of several huge counties is not large, the total number of people is far more than 100,000, so it makes sense that there are 100,000 displaced people.

Except for the more than 30,000 people left earlier, the rest were resettled in other cities, most of which were Xiangping and Xinchang.

Combined, 80,000 people have migrated to these two cities, and it is precisely because of this that Gongsun Du can recruit 10,000 recruits to train in Shoushan.

This time is the last batch.

Originally, it was not Cheng Pu's turn to escort these people, but Gongsun Du suddenly remembered him, so he gave an order, and he took five hundred people to escort them.

It's just that Cheng Pu was unlucky, seeing that he was about to reach the first mountain, it snowed heavily last night, which greatly reduced the speed, and after most of the day, he only walked out of less than twenty miles.

It's really bad luck.

Cheng Pu doesn't think so, as a native of Youbeiping, he knows the weather in the north very well. It is not uncommon for snow to fall earlier in previous years.

He also made some preparations before setting out, but it was only uncomfortable for him to let the people suffer.

Not only the good thoughts in his heart, but also the reason why Gongsun Du has always been very good to the people.

"Newspaper~"

"Tun Chief, I have found the camp site, which is five miles ahead."

Cheng Pu nodded, looked up at the sky, saw that the snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger, and said: "Leave a hundred people to travel with a certain rear, and the rest of the people will be divided into two roads, and clean up the camp all the way, and be sure to clear enough places to camp before the people arrive." On the other hand, find enough wood to ensure a peaceful night. Tonight's snow may not be lighter than last night's. ”

"Yes, Chief."

Originally, Cheng Pu led 500 people as the head of the tun, that is, Wutun, to escort the people to Xiangping, and the other four tun chiefs were not satisfied, but after seeing Cheng Pu's martial arts, everyone suppressed the other thoughts in their hearts and decided to obey the order temporarily. In the past two days on the road, especially last night and this morning, Cheng Pu's response made them truly understand the difference between Cheng Pu and them, completely let go of the fighting spirit, and was willing to obey orders.

When it was getting dark, Cheng Pu finally walked five miles slowly.

Saying that he is slow is not a reprimand, but a dissatisfaction with the nature of heaven and earth.

Seeing that it had been cleaned up, except for the snowflakes brought by the snow that was still falling after the cleanup, Cheng Pu nodded with satisfaction, and then turned over and dismounted.

"Everyone immediately set up camp for the old folks, and it was important to finish it before the snow covered the camp again."

"Yes, Chief."

As the snow-white tents were erected, the two hundred soldiers who had gone out to collect wood and fires rushed back, bringing back a large amount of wood in sleighs, enough for the night. Cheng Pu smiled very satisfied, and then asked them to bury the pot and cook.

Snow days have the advantage of snow days, and if you usually camp you need to find a water source to camp, but at this time, you can camp casually, as long as you have a certain defensive advantage. If you want water, as long as you have wood, put a pot of snow in a pot, and it won't be long before it becomes a clear water source.

As for the question of hygiene, probably no one has considered it.

After a while, bursts of fragrance wafted back and forth in the camp, tempting the heartstrings.

The atmosphere in the camp became more and more harmonious, and finally when the fragrance reached its peak, all the camp tents were finally built.

Dinner was very peaceful, and piles of bonfires were lit.

After a day's journey, especially on this snowy day, all the people were tired, and it was not long before they fell asleep one after another, and the camp suddenly became extremely quiet, except for the crackling sound of the campfire.

Cheng Pu began to inspect the defense at night, although this is not wartime, and with the help of heavy snow, the possibility of encountering the enemy army is very small, but at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no beasts and other attacks on the camp, so it is necessary to arrange a certain defense.

After inspecting and seeing that there were no leaks, Cheng Pu returned to the military tent. But instead of sleeping, he pondered the arrangements for the morning.

"If there is no heavy snowfall, you can go to Shoushan today, and you can reach Xiangping at noon or afternoon tomorrow. But as soon as the snow fell, the speed immediately decreased a lot, and today I only walked out of thirty-five or six miles in one day. In other words, it will take at least one to two days to get to Shoushan, and then it will take another one to three days to reach Xiangping. ”

"However, I have already sent someone to summon the lord this morning to ask for support, and if I think I get the support of the lord, I think it should be much faster, at least two to three days less. Just ......"

Thinking of this, Cheng Pu couldn't help frowning, and he always felt that it was not good.

"So far, no one has replied, and it is not yet known whether the lord has received the news. If you look at it this way, there is likely to be no support. In this way, grain and grass are not a problem, when the time comes, it is still possible to save a little, and it can be used for four or five days, but last night the heavy snow fell suddenly, and many people suffered from the wind cold, I am afraid it will not last long. ”

Cheng Pu didn't think of this, and also brought some medicinal herbs, but there were a total of 500 people accompanying him, and after bringing a lot of food, how many medicinal herbs could he bring?

The fragrance wafting through the camp before contained the scent of medicine.

It was the second time I boiled medicine today, but I had already used more than half of the medicinal materials I carried.

No way, there are too many people who are sick.

"Hey, I hope some people can be cured after taking the medicine! I hope that tonight's preparation will prevent more people from being infected with the cold! I hope the lord has gotten the news, but the person sent is still on the way! Hope ......"

Cheng Pu has no experience in the army, although he has a family background and is quite familiar with the military, but he is only fifteen or sixteen now, and it is very reluctant to command a hundred people, five hundred? It's really tiring! There are more than 10,000 people who don't need to be managed, and they are even more tired.

The only thing to think of is that the distance between the two cities is not far, and it will pass after a while.

It's just that there is one thing he can't understand, and that is-

"Why did the main guild name someone to escort it? Do you want to see someone? But a certain district commander, although there are not 10,000 in the army, there are hundreds, but a small person, is it necessary? Besides, I didn't know the lord before, and I didn't know the lord when I wanted to come, so why did I know so-and-so? ”

I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.

Thinking about it, Cheng Pu fell asleep.

Boom~

Suddenly, a pain came.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Pu was a little stunned, and when he saw that he had slept on the ground, his face couldn't help but darken, and then he quickly stood up. I looked left and right and didn't find anyone else, so I was slightly relieved.

"It's good that no one sees me in trouble."

Cheng Pu crossed such a thought in his mind, and then wanted to continue sleeping, but he felt that this would inevitably cause bad speculation, so he straightened his clothes, put on his armor, and walked out of the military tent.

"The snow has stopped?"

Cheng Pu muttered, and looked at the ground again, which was not too thick, at least not as thick as yesterday's snow, and his mood was much better.

Turning his head and looking at the sky again, he found that it seemed that it was not early, and some people who had gotten up early had already gotten up and were gathering around the bonfire and chatting in a low voice.

Cheng Pu couldn't help but rejoice when he saw this, he always felt that the movement just now was heard, and if he didn't come out, it would definitely cause ......

After walking around the barracks, it was almost dawn, most of the people in the barracks had already risen, and a faint fragrance began to waft in the barracks again. Cheng Pu ordered to start packing his luggage, and after dinner, he was about to set off.
