Chapter 130: Borrowing Orders
Thank you book friends for 58884084 and monthly passes, and caterpillars!
"Hansheng. The safety of Mt. Rin and the mounds is up to you. At the gate of Rinshan City, Tang Zheng said to Huang Zhong that this time Tang Zheng only dispatched part of the troops of Rinshan, and the rest of them all stayed in their respective stations.
"Don't worry, as long as I, Huang Zhong, am still in Dingbao, the mountains and the earth are not lost." Huang Zhong clenched his fists and said to Tang Zheng.
"Well, I'm relieved that Rinyama will be handed over to you. Also, after we leave, the training of your bow battalion must not be left behind. ”
"Yes, please rest assured, your subordinates know what to do."
"Well, then I'll be relieved. By the way, all the affairs and family of the eldest brother Rinyama will trouble the eldest brother. ”
"My own family, why do you have to see the outside like this. Don't worry, when you come back, I will hand over Rinzan to you completely. ”
"Well, I don't have to worry about my eldest brother." Tang Zheng said to Cheng Pu, and then said to Zhao Yun and Zhang Chao beside him: "It's not too early, let's go." After speaking, Tang Zheng took the lead in riding his horse and headed in the direction of Lingzhi.
Five thousand people walked on the road, and it looked like a long dragon from a distance, but fortunately, Cheng Hu was already one step ahead of the grain and grass, otherwise the whole team didn't know when it would be to reach Lingzhi.
"Childe, should we send troops directly to Linyu? Don't attack Fat? Zhang Chao, who was riding on a horse, asked.
"Well, Fei Ru I have already let Cheng Mo go, our target this time is Linyu. In addition, Han Dang and Leng Qianqiu will also go to Haiyang after dealing with the affairs of Lingzhi. These two counties have the intention of belonging to my Rinshan, but in order to prevent the situation from changing, I let Han Dang and Cheng Mo go, only this Linyu defender is determined to follow Zhang Chun, so I personally led the army to prepare to take Linyu in one fell swoop. After taking Linyu, we will be able to rely on the Great Wall to resist the counterattack of Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju. Tang Zheng said.
"In this way, we can rely on the Great Wall as a line of defense, and we are not afraid of the invasion of nomads." Zhang Chao nodded and said.
"Well, that's it. I fear that we will not be able to afford to deal with the invasion of the nomads in the event of turmoil in the world, so I want to be prepared now and wait until the situation is stable within us to settle the accounts with these nomads. ”
"In recent years, these Hu people have invaded my territory to burn, kill and loot, and the situation has only improved since Gongzi came. When the situation stabilizes, I will definitely kill Hu Ting and let these Hu people know that I, Han people, are not easy to mess with. Zhang Chao said indignantly.
"Now we don't have the ability to settle accounts with them, we can only slowly develop and grow ourselves, I believe that in a few years we will have the ability to let them know the meaning of the phrase 'everything that shines on the sun and moon is Han land'."
"Well, we all believe in Childe."
"By the way, how far are we from Lingzhi?"
"Gongzi's mound to Lingzhi is about one hundred and forty-seven miles away, we have already walked about a hundred miles, I think we will be able to reach Lingzhi before dark." Zhang Chao said to Tang Zheng.
"Well, speed up the march and strive to reach Lingzhi earlier."
"Yes, my subordinates will do it." After speaking, Zhang Chao sped up and ran towards the front of the team. After a while, the whole team was moving faster.
After a while, Zhang Chao rode to Tang Zheng's side again and said to Tang Zheng: "Childe, this saddle and stirrup you invented are so easy to use, if you still ride a horse and march for a day like before, you will definitely not be able to go so far." By the way, Childe, how did you come up with the stirrup and the saddle and that horseshoe? ”
"In fact, there are many things that we can find solutions to if we think about them a little more." Tang Zheng said with a smile, you can't tell Zhang Chao that he has thousands of years of knowledge more than him!
When it was almost dark, Tang Zheng and his entourage finally arrived at Lingzhi, Zhang Chao pointed to the city wall in front of him and said to Tang Zheng: "Childe, this is Lingzhi City." ”
"Yes, I know. Let's go, find a place where the army can settle down. Saying that, Tang Zheng rode towards the city gate, Leng Qianqiu and Han Dang had already been waiting at the city gate, and when they saw the arrival of Tang Zheng and his party, Han Dang and Leng Qianqiu hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.
"Childe, why did you arrive so soon?" Han Dang asked.
"Don't you forget that we're all cavalry, can you not be happy?" Tang Zheng said.
"That's too, let's go to the city, the residence is ready for you." At this time, Leng Qianqiu said to Tang Zheng.
"Then it's going to be a trouble for Captain Leng."
"The Fujun is polite, now our Lingzhi is also a member of Youbeiping, why should the Fujun be so polite."
"Hahaha, then I'm welcome. By the way, the people of Lingzhi didn't act aggressively towards our arrival. Tang Zheng said to Leng Qianqiu with a smile.
"No, the people of Lingzhi have long been eager to serve Rinshan, and now they are all raising their hands and feet in favor of the arrival of the Rinshan army."
"That's fine, as long as the people don't resent us. Leng Lieutenant Haiyang's matter has to trouble you to go for a trip in person. ”
"No problem, when Lingzhi's affairs are dealt with, I will accompany Brother Han to Haiyang."
"Well, that's for the best. I also hope that Hai Duong's guards will be able to understand practice and not make unnecessary resistance. ”
"Don't worry, Fujun, I promise to persuade Haiyang to surrender."
"Okay, let's not talk about that, I believe you Captain Leng Lieutenant. Let's go, let's go into town! After speaking, Tang Zheng took the lead in walking towards the city.
The group followed Tang Zheng and walked towards the city, Tang Zheng also looked at the city as he walked, and the people around him also looked at Tang Zheng and his party with curious eyes. On the road from the city gate to the county government, Tang Zheng saw a lot of situations, there were homeless people wearing clothes and broken buildings, and wealthy businessmen wearing brocade clothes and satin, in general, the poor people accounted for most of them.
"Fujun, this is the county government, the previous county commander refused to join us and was persuaded by me to go home, so the post of county commander is now in my custody." When he arrived at the county office, Leng Qianqiu said to Tang Zheng. As for what the county order was persuaded by him to go home, Tang Zheng knew what was going on with his feet, Tang Zheng nodded and didn't say anything.
Tang Zheng looked outside the county office for a while, although it was dilapidated, it was relatively good on the whole. Tang Zheng walked into the county office, and the officials and officials in the county government had already lined up on both sides to wait for Tang Zheng and his party to arrive.
"Fujun, you sit down for a while, I'll go and bring the copywriting of the county government to you." Leng Qianqiu said to Tang Zheng.
"Captain Leng, no need, I believe you." Tang Zheng said to Leng Qianqiu, who was about to turn around and leave.
"You can give me a rough description of the current situation of Lingzhi."
"Okay, the prince, now there are a total of 1,820 households in Lingzhi, with more than 80,000 people. Of course, this is only the number of people on the household register, and it is not clear how many there are now. Leng Qianqiu said to Tang Zheng.
"Well, when the situation settles down, I'll do another statistic."
"Yes, Fujun."
"In this way, the situation is special now, and you are still responsible for the temporary implementation of military management in Lingzhi, and we will make a decision when we take Linyu." Tang Zheng said to Leng Qianqiu.
"Everything is subject to the arrangement of the king."
"Okay, let's rest at the county office tonight. Zhang Chao, you go to the barracks to assist Zilong in setting up camp. Tang Zheng said to Zhang Chao beside him.
"Subordinates obey." Zhang Chao clenched his fists and said, turned around and walked out of the county government to the place where the cavalry was camped.
"Let's go, Brother Dian, let's go rest first, and we'll march again tomorrow morning." Tang Zheng said to Dian Wei, and after saying that, Tang Zheng and Dian Wei were ready to go to the backyard of the county government.
"Fujun, the lower officials have prepared a banquet in Juxiang Building to catch the wind and wash the dust for Fujun, and I hope that Fujun will appreciate his face." Leng Qianqiu said to Tang Zheng.
"I appreciate your kindness, Captain Leng, but I won't go if I'm a little tired today, so when I come back from Linyu, I'll have a banquet in Rinkan to ask Captain Leng for Captain Leng."
"How dare you bother the prince, since the monarch is unwell, then the officials will not bother." After speaking, Leng Qianqiu arched his hand to Tang Zheng and Dian Wei, turned around and left the county office, looking at Leng Qianqiu who was leaving, Tang Zheng and Dian Wei also turned around and walked towards the backyard.
