"The most troublesome thing is the problem of how to buy land after the gang of people in Shaanxi are evil."

When Xie Wenle, Lei Hong and the others dispersed, Liu Ximing sighed at Su Jin.

"With Mr. Su here, we don't have to worry about the government's tax collection, but I think that tomorrow we will increase the news of relief, how angry the Shaanxi gentry will be, but this place is not easy to get."

Su Jin pondered, and suddenly his eyes opened and looked at Liu Ximing.

"I still heard some news in the city, I don't know if it will be of any use to the lord?"

Liu Xi's life is here, and the news that Su Jin can pay attention to will not be a trivial matter.

Su Jin said with a smile: "I heard that the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou and Hong Hengjiu, has led his troops south, and is fighting with the thieves and other rebels in Lantian, Henan and other places, so there are so many displaced people in Xi'an recently, and my Longxiang Brigade is good at battle formations, has the lord ever thought about making a little article in this regard?" ”

Liu Ximing and Shao Derong and others in the tent were all bright-eyed.

"Mr. Su, please elaborate on the rumors."

……

Hearing that Su Jin finished telling the city about the movements of Hong Chengchou's bandit army, Liu Ximing got up from his seat and paced back and forth in the big tent.

After a while, he finally made up his mind.

"In this way, we will first straighten out the affairs of the displaced people in a few days after tomorrow, and then leave the second regiment responsible for bringing the displaced escort team to maintain order, and I will take the personal guard regiment and the first regiment to the east to have a look."

"Lord, this trip is a bit too dangerous, why don't you sit here and let Camp Commander Shao lead the team." , Su Jin hurriedly persuaded.

Shao Derong also clenched his fists, "Second brother, what Mr. Su said is reasonable, you let me go." ”

"You're going?" , Liu Ximing turned to look at a few people, "In what name are you going?" ”

"You, a Sichuan Pingtou civilian, appeared near the left side of the army with nearly a thousand heavily armed men, but I am afraid that you will be regarded as a bandit immediately."

"Not only I have to go, but even Mr. Su will follow with me, so that when the time comes, the official will say that in the past, I will wait for the soldiers to serve the country, and Governor Hong will not ignore it."

was reminded by Liu Ximing like this, Su Jin and the others thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was indeed the case, and everyone could only keep silent.

In the next two days, the Longxiang Brigade was busy, even if it was snowing heavily, a group of strong young men had to shuttle around the camp every day, busy with all kinds of settlement affairs.

Fortunately, the Liu family has its own set of methods for the management of displaced people, and first isolated the more than 20,000 people who have been selected as the Liu family's followers to build camps.

Liu Ximing named it Camp Rogge, and when Shao Derong asked the meaning of this word with a confused face, he said with a righteous and awe-inspiring face, which means the land of new life.

Shao Derong and the others were stunned for a moment, and everyone thought that this implication was good.

Necessary areas such as accommodation, training, meals, and toilets were set up in the Rogge camp, and an independent camp was set up with a barbed wire fence produced by Liu's workshop.

The personnel in it enjoy the tents, warm clothes and other materials provided by the Liu family, and at the same time, they must also provide young and strong people to participate in the escort team and accept the unified training and command of the Longxiang Brigade.

As for the homeless people who did not have a male or young and strong family, they were placed on the side, mainly responsible for cooking porridge and washing in the camp.

Other people who came to eat temporarily or had yet to be inspected were stationed in the east of the Rogge camp, and Liu Ximing had an extra heart when he divided the camp.

To the east is the direction where the rebels may come, and with these in the way, if something really happens, it can buy some time for the Rog camp.

On January 27, the ninth year of Chongzhen, the newly formed 3,000-person escort team in the Rogge camp completed the first training, and Liu Ximing finally finished handling the affairs at hand.

He left 30,000 stone of grain in the camp, and he took Su Jin, Shao Derong and others to the east.

The future of this eastward advance is uncertain, Liu Ximing did not dare to bring Xie Wenle, Du Liangji and others with him, even if some of them wanted to go together to the death, they were still forced by him to stay in Xi'an City.

A group of more than 900 people rode lightly and rushed to Lantian more than 70 miles away that night.

However, it was calm here, and Su Jin had heard of the fierce battle between the officers and the rebellious soldiers before, and he didn't even see a shadow.

In desperation, the group had to stay in Lantian for one night, and inquired about the military situation by the way.

Only after this inquiry did I know that Cao Bianjiao, a staff general under Hong Chengchou, had already pursued Li Zicheng's troops in the direction of Wuguan with more than 3,500 men from two battalions.

In Lantian, Liu Ximing heard more and more news about the thieves, and gradually a lot of doubts rose in his heart.

This fucking seems to have some deviations from the history I know, and it seems that a major event should happen in the eighth year of Chongzhen.

Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang and other thirteen rebel armies gathered in Henan to hold the Xingyang Conference, and then the peasant army became more and more fierce, until Gao Yingxiang was captured, and it slowly fell into a trough under the hard pursuit of Hong Chengchou and others.

But now that he has been Chongzhen for nine years, he doesn't seem to have heard these news, and the news he got from Lantian is a testament to the thoughts in his heart.

This little butterfly has fanned time and space, and has had a certain impact on history!

Thinking of this, Liu Ximing felt a little chill in his heart, although this era is a little different from what he knows, but this historical main line has not changed much, which is the source of his sense of security in his heart.

Now that he suddenly learned that history may have changed, Liu Ximing panicked.

What went wrong?

That night, Liu Ximing tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

He carefully calculated it, like the tigers in the mountains, these are small bands of rogues, and they shouldn't have much influence, could it be because of Zhang Xianzhong?

In fact, his speculation is not far from ten.

It was precisely because he cooperated with Liu Jianhou to exterminate the Yuan Sect that Hou Liangzhu's troops and horses went north.

Zhang Xianzhong, who originally planned to flow towards the lake, seized the gap to enter Sichuan from Kuizhou and then to Shaanxi.

Without Zhang Xianzhong's way to contain the officers and troops in the west, the pressure on Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng and other troops has increased greatly, and people from all walks of life have fallen into a melee.

Gao Yingxiang led the official army around Shaanxi and Henan in two large circles, and it was not until this time that he broke into Henan again, and Hong Chengchou's soldiers and horses also followed.

Cao Bianjiao's journey was sent by Hong Chengchou to pursue Li Zicheng, who had just left Lantian yesterday and pursued Li Zicheng's troops along the Shangluo Ancient Road.

After sorting out the current situation, Liu Ximing no longer hesitated, and went straight to Wuguan with people early the next morning.

Traveling all the way to the vicinity of Shangluo, Jiang Deshen, who was exploring the way in front, suddenly rushed back with people.

"Urgent report, second brother, there is a battle between two parties in Jiataogou ahead."

"What?" , Liu Xi pulled the reins and pulled the horse's head up.

"Check out, is it an official army and a rogue?"

In the winter, Jiang Deshen's face was covered with sweat.

"It should be Cao Bianjiao's department, I see that the official army has the character Cao written on it, but now the official army is trapped in the mountain col by the rogue, I don't know if I can beat it."

"Didn't you say that the officers and soldiers were chasing the thieves?"

Li Biao's mouth can be stuffed with a chicken leg, and his mouth is unbelievable when he grows up.

"That's the fucking past."

Liu Ximing threw down a sentence at Li Biao and shouted directly to the front, "What about the guide, find someone over." ”

"Here, Cao Bianjiao should be trapped in this place."

Liu Ximing took the horsewhip and lightly pointed on the map, Jiataogou had already deviated a little from the Shangluo Ancient Road, and Cao Bianjiaobu thought that he was rash against the enemy, and was ambushed by Li Zicheng.

Shao Derong took the measuring stick and drew twice on his map, pointing to a highland road below Jiataogou.

"Second brother, look here, this Wufeng Mountain is three hundred zhang high, and about one hundred zhang to the south is facing Jiatao Ditch, we might as well set up an artillery position here, just to bombard the thieves, so that we can relieve the siege for the officers and soldiers, and avoid our casualties."

The Longxiang Brigade can now only determine the elevation of the mountain by simple triangulation, so the altitude is not very accurate.

But it was enough for Liu Ximing, he carefully studied the map, and then glanced at Shao Derong approvingly.

"The idea is good, just do as you say, Zhang Hu, do you know which side to go to Wufeng Mountain?"

At the end, he emphasized, "We can't be found by the rogues, otherwise, you know the consequences." ”

A trace of panic flashed on Zhang Hu's face, he didn't expect that these masters would want to fight the rogues, which were tens of thousands of people.
