The moon has long since disappeared, but there are still many stars blinking in the sky, looking down on the scene that is happening in Texas City. The Great Texas Migration began.

Li Ze only gave tens of thousands of people in Texas City three days to prepare. Go or die, there is no third option.

In the course of three days, countless fresh heads that had been cut off were added to the city, and here there were both the Zhu clan and the Ma clan, and some of them were captured by the Xinyue Fox group led by the fox group who were hunting outside in these three days.

Li Ze was disgusted by this bloody high-pressure method from the bottom of his heart, but he had to do it. He needed to create a no-man's-land of hundreds of miles between Henghai and Wuyi.

The war between Chengde and Zhenwu and Lu Long cannot be ended in a short period of time. And the Cheng German army, which has lost a large number of main elites, even if it stabilizes its position, will not be able to fight back only if it has the ability to parry, at least this situation will continue until winter comes.

Therefore, Li Ze could not be expected to get the support of Chengde for most of the next half a year, and he needed to independently deal with the invasion of the Heng Navy. And Chengde at this time also needs him to block this side independently.

The confluence of Henghai and Lu Long will inevitably regard Chengde in distress as a piece of fat, the more tenacious Li Anguo fights in Shenzhou, the more Henghai Zhu Shou will like it, because this represents the emptiness of Chengde's rear, Zhu Bin waved Yizhou, it is just an outpost battle, Zhu Shou wants to take Yizhou as the first foothold, and then peek into Zhenzhou, that is where Zhu Shou really wants.

Now that Zhang Zhongwu has torn off the last fig leaf of the Tang Dynasty, who hasn't thought about it at all with those jiedu envoys who have a little strength in their hands? As Zhenwu Wang Feng analyzed, once Zhu Shou can win Zhenzhou, Zhaozhou and other places, then his strength can indeed leap forward, why should he follow Zhang Zhongwu as a little brother Ma cub? Wouldn't it be better to be your own master?

If Henghai attacked with all his might, Li Ze would not have much to parry at all.

Therefore, the hundreds of miles from Texas to Yizhou must become a deserted and uninhabited no man's land.

The Heng Navy could not get any supplies on this land, and not a single civilian man could be requisitioned, and everything had to be transported from hundreds of miles away.

When the army fights a war, logistical support is the top priority. Without sufficient logistical support, without the general who would faint and go on a long-distance attack without any scruples, the end would have been miserab.

Under the jurisdiction of Henghai, it was already poor, and the people under its rule rioted one after another, which made the burden of Henghai itself even heavier, and hundreds of miles of no-man's land were enough to discourage Zhu Shou. Even if they want to fight, the troops they send out are bound to be limited. If you really want to send tens of thousands of troops to attack, the logistical pressure will be enough to drag him down.

In this battle, Li Ze not only wanted to defend his old nest Wuyi, but also for his prestige in the entire Chengde region. Although Li Che is dead, this does not mean that he can successfully ascend to the throne. But if you win this battle by yourself, keep Chengde's back, and let Chengde's main force have no worries when facing Zhenwu Lulongjun, then your reputation will really sink into the hearts of Chengde people.

At that time, when you enter the core level of Chengde, you will have enough confidence.

Of course, while defending Wuyi, it is also a process of accumulating strength, and people, of course, are the most important part of all strength.

After sweeping Texas City, Li Ze can be said to have made a fortune. Zhu Bin's wealth made him stunned, and copying the Ma family was the icing on the cake. Even if the pressure of these many people is added, Li Ze estimates that it will never be a problem to support the last year with his gains in this battle.

After all, in Texas City, millions of dollars were fished.

Of course, there is also a way to spend more money. Many ideas were already swirling in Li Ze's mind, but they could not be implemented one by one until he returned to Wuyi. These hundreds of miles will not be so smooth and smooth.

Leaving home has always been a pain in the hearts of Chinese, and no one wants to leave their hometown if they can't live until they really can't live. Of course, these people are full of resentment towards Li Ze now, and there will be no peace on this road. It's also less likely to be faster.

And Zhu Shou, who wanted to come to Henghai, would never watch his people escape safely after watching him kidnap him. Even if he is not ready, it is still no problem to send a certain number of troops to pursue him.

So, on the way home, there must be a good battle to be fought. Only by winning this battle can we be truly safe.

Standing on the top of the city, as far as the eye can see, there is thick smoke billowing everywhere, the Wuyi army is faithfully carrying out Li Ze's orders, all the villages, towns, and crops that have grown extremely well are turned into ashes in the flames, and every smoke rises, it represents the hard work of countless people's lives, which is slowly disappearing.

Under the city, the sound of wailing was deafening.

"Shi Zhuang, I have finally become the kind of person I hate the most!" Looking at some ordinary people who fell to the ground and cried loudly at the burning crops outside the city, Li Ze said to Shi Zhuang beside him quietly.

"Huh?" Shi Zhuang didn't react for a while.

"When I read history books, I am often indignant at those officials who brutalize the people, the heroes, and even the emperor, and often fantasize about what to do if I am in power and in power, imagining that I will become the blue sky of the people, be worshiped by the people, and leave a name in history. But what do you think of me now? Isn't that the kind of person I ever hated the most? Li Ze's eyes were a little moist, not because of the tragic scene outside the city, but because of his disillusionment.

"The suffering of today is the blessing of the day to come." Seeing Li Ze, who was a little out of shape, Shi Zhuang said with a wide explanation. "Gongzi might as well think about it from another angle, if you don't do this, then once Henghai enters Yizhou, Zhenzhou, and even Chengde is destroyed, the people who are suffering will not only be in front of them, but millions of old surnames. For the sake of the well-being of the many, it is impossible to sacrifice the few. What's more, Childe just moved, and in history, in order to achieve such a strategic goal, it is not that no one has done it before, compared to those people, Childe can be regarded as a bodhisattva. There are still a lot of risks involved in doing so now. ”

Li Ze sighed: "This is my bottom line." ”

Shi Zhuang smiled slightly: "They still have at least one life, and as long as they live, nothing else is worth talking about." Childe, did you say yes? ”

That being said, but how are they innocent? Just because of Zhu Shou's ambition alone, countless people have fallen into pain, which is also infuriating to think about. Li Ze shook his head and said. Shi Zhuang, you say, how to avoid such a situation in the future? ”

Shi Zhuang was stunned, "Childe, with the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that this situation will become more and more intense in the future, maybe in a few decades, the world will once again form a unified pattern before there is hope for it to appear." ”

"Great unification, hey, great unification!" Li Ze raised his head, looked at the distant sky, was silent and never spoke again, Shi Zhuang looked at Li Ze's side face, and was also silent.

The Tang Dynasty is still nominally unified, but in fact, it is dozens of knots to divide one side, and how difficult is it to complete the prosperous Tang Dynasty?

There are nearly 30,000 people in Dezhou City, and along the way, there will be more villages, and the people of the towns are forced to join the ranks of migration, according to the most preliminary estimates, the population of Dezhou will eventually be moved into Wuyi, as many as 100,000 people, this is actually an extremely huge project, so Shi Zhuang said that Li Ze did this, the risk is not small.

But as Li Ze said, risks and opportunities coexist. Once it is successfully completed and the initial difficult period is overcome, then Li Ze's strength will take a qualitative leap.

Li Mi trotted up to the city and saluted Li Ze: "Son, Second Master Tu is ready, it's time for you to set off." ”

Li Ze nodded, stretched out his hand at Shi Zhuang, and shook Shi Zhuang's big hand tightly.

"I'll take care of the rest. This battle will certainly not be easy to fight, but we must win it. ”

"Childe, don't worry, there is no problem in this battle." Shi Zhuang said lightly. "Childe has no last resort, this plan is enough for Henghai to suffer another big loss in front of us, and then at least for this year, they will no longer have the ability to attack, and after this year, they will not have another chance."

Li Ze patted Shi Zhuang on the shoulder, and didn't say more, making decisions on the battlefield on the battlefield was not his forte, even if he had a stomach full of thoughts and opinions, it was best not to say it, so as not to disturb Shi Zhuang's thoughts.

Following Li Ze, only the three thousand black-clothed soldiers brought by Tu Hu from behind and less than five hundred armor soldiers, and the rest of the people, Li Ze handed them all over to Shi Zhuang.

Five hundred guards, 1,500 armor soldiers, this is all the strength that Shi Zhuang has at hand.

But what kind of scene Yokokai will come up with, they don't know yet.

And the place of the battle is in this Texas City.

Li Ze rode away with a whip, and above the city, Shi Zhuang, Shen Congxing, Li Hao, Chen Bing, Chu Sheng, Liu Dai and others clasped their fists and saluted. waited until Li Ze could no longer be seen, and then everyone put down their hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's up to us next. We can't afford to lose this battle, we can't afford to lose, if we win, it will be a new world, and if we lose, we will have nothing. Shi Zhuang said solemnly.

"Understood!" The generals responded with a bang.

And just when Li Ze led the army and escorted this migratory army to Yizhou, a thousand cavalry from Cangzhou, a thousand armor soldiers from Dizhou, and three thousand soldiers from the government were also rushing towards Texas day and night.

This migratory army can travel thirty miles a day, which is considered remarkable, but a lightly armed army, traveling one hundred and eighty miles a day, is not too difficult, and the cavalry is even faster.

It will take at least ten days for Li Ze to enter Wuyi, so he can't help but fight this battle, so he has to fight.
