"Drumming!"

The sound of war drums sounded, tearing apart the peace of the land in an instant.

This is a grassland hundreds of miles east of Dongsheng Prefecture, and dozens of earthen houses are scattered on the grassland. According to the confession of the captives who led the way, this is the village of "Big Rice Shop".

What a good name. Dong Rui, the platoon commander of the first company of the Guards Regiment, looked at the village in front of him and calmly observed the situation.

After Yongbian, Hebin, and Dongshengzhou were in their hands, the Xiahetao area had completely fallen into the hands of Qin Mu.

This is the agricultural base planned by Qin Mu. Without grain and instability, agriculture is the foundation at all times. But Qin Mu can't be here all the time, after all, there is a bargain to be asked for here, he still understands agriculture and can manage agriculture.

The industrial construction in the area of Weishan Lake couldn't be played without Qin Mu, so Qin Mu could only leave here temporarily, and handed over everything to the Foldable and Stone Relics.

However, before leaving, Qin Mu had drawn up a complete plan, including planting, breeding, water conservancy, industry, etc., this set of scientific development plans were all in the briefcase of folded and stone relics.

Although it is only a stack of paper that is not thick, it feels that it weighs more than a thousand catties.

The plan is so huge that they simply feel that they are working desperately, and it may not be completed.

However, there is no word failure in the dictionary of the Guards Regiment, and construction is also another way of fighting - Shi Yi and other senior officers have long understood this, so the failure of construction is also a military failure.

Stone Legacy will not allow the first defeat of the Guards Regiment to fall on him!

The more difficult it is, the more motivated it will be, and the greater the harvest in the future.

So the two of them worked non-stop every day, working hard to implement Qin Mu's plan.

Say a thousand, say 10,000, and it is not possible to engage in construction without people.

The industries that Qin Mu can build now are all labor-intensive and require a lot of labor.

The area of Xiahetao is several times dozens of times that of Fuzhou, and a large number of people are also needed to open up wasteland for farming.

Therefore, it is possible to seek two ways with the stone relics. Zhe Keqiu was responsible for immigrating from the Great Song Dynasty, while Shi Yi was responsible for finding people from outside the Great Song Dynasty.

Looking for someone, to put it mildly, is actually to arrest people.

They often went to Western Xia to arrest people - they were slaves and could work.

Of course, Western Xia also often came to the Great Song Dynasty to arrest people, and no one should say anything about this matter, depending on the size of the fist.

Now that Shi Yi is in charge of arresting people, he divided the Guards Regiment into three. Three platoons guarded the place, the first platoon and the second platoon, each responsible for the way, led the Zhejia army to search along the banks of the Yellow River, and captured all the laborers they saw.

In this place, after repeated wars, there is no longer a large-scale force.

The second prince of Jin captured Yelu Yanxi and achieved his goal. His men and horses have retreated to the old nest of the Jin Kingdom. The remnants of the Liao State were also defeated by the Jin State, and the Western Xia was also crippled by the Jin State, and now there is no real army in this place at all.

The most that the Guards Regiment can encounter are horse gangs and bandits. Such an enemy does not become an enemy at all, not to mention that the Guards Regiment has cross-era weapons, but without these, bandits who can be beaten with cold weapons cry dad and call mother, not to mention that there are a large number of Zhejia troops following.

The Folded Army's expedition is now much easier than before. Because they don't have to wear armor anymore.

A set of armor is dozens of pounds good, and a dozen pounds is bad. There is no light burden for thousands of miles, and it is very tiring to march for a long time, and a little more weight. Now that they have lost dozens of pounds of dead iron, they are much more relaxed.

The first platoon leader, Dong Rui, is the highest commander of the team. In fact, control of the army has been relinquished.

Those who know the times are Junjie. I have seen the wars of the *** era, and I can make it clear that even if I have a little bit of people, even if there are more, it is useless. In front of Qin Mu's guard regiment, it was all cannon fodder.

A group of cannon fodder, of course, will not be kept like a baby.

So he was very happy to hand over the Zhejia army to Shi Yi. It's even a little impatient to let go.

Zhe Keqiu knows that Qin Mu is going to expand the army, and if the army is expanded, the Zhejia army will be close to the water and the building will be the first month, and a large number of recruits will come out of the Zhejia army.

In this way, with the development of the Guards Regiment, not only will their own power not decrease, but will increase even more - the Guards Regiment is full of Folding Army, and they are their old superiors, so they naturally have some power.

And the Zhejia army has also seen the power of the Guards Regiment, as long as they are not fools, they know that their set is outdated. The Guards Regiment is the direction in the future, so each of them, as long as they want to be soldiers and eat food, are all willing to join the Guards Regiment.

Dong Rui was originally from the Zhejia Army, and he joined the Guards Regiment when he was supporting farmers in Wujiazhuang.

Such an identity made it more convenient for him to lead this team, so along the way, the Guards Regiment and the Zhejia Army cooperated tacitly, and no one died, and a large number of people were grabbed.

All the actions of the Guards Regiment must be carefully planned in advance, and it must not be blindly attacked and fought in all directions.

This is what Qin Muyan taught by example and set strict discipline to do.

Along the way, Dong Rui meticulously executed the pre-war plan.

In the face of Dafanpu Village, if the Zhejia Army came to carry out this task, it would naturally be surrounded outside, and then they rushed in shouting. If you don't accept it, cut it down to see who dares to resist.

But the Guards knew what they were fighting for. They didn't come out to kill people, on the contrary, they wanted to save as many lives as possible - the regimental commander wanted labor, not a dead man.

The battle plan of the Guards Regiment was to surround the village at dawn, then alarm the villagers with war drums and shouts, and then slowly press the people from three directions to drive the population out of the village.

In this way, when the enemy is in the open, the firepower of the Guards Regiment can be maximized.

When encountering resistance, Dong Rui will not hesitate, and the Garand rifle will not be merciful. Kill with a sword, kill with a bow and arrow.

Kill everyone who dares to resist, and the rest will be easy to do.

Men and women, young and old, were all arrested and sent back to Dongshengzhou.

This task is to be done by the Folding Army. Every time a village was broken, the Folded Army would send a small team to escort the captives back, while a new team would join up.

The arresting operation of the Guards Regiment was full of Qin Mu's style. Move before you act, as precise as a machine.

This made Platoon Commander Dong admire the regiment commander even more - how could there be such a perfect when the Zhejia Army was fighting. Thinking of the time when he was in the Folded Family Army, Dong Rui felt as far away as 10,000 years ago, and he couldn't even remember it.

Today's Dong Rui is already a standard soldier of the Guards Regiment. And the meaning of the standard, that is, from head to toe, from action to thought, has been completely guarded. They are incompatible with the Great Song Dynasty and this time and space.

"Bang!"

The gunshot rang out, Dong Rui remained motionless, and continued to calmly observe the situation.

There will always be ghosts who don't know how to die, who don't know what kind of armament they are facing, and who don't know their future fate.

In fact, Dong Rui felt sorry for the dead man just now. If he did not resist, he would go to Dongkatsu, where he would either be trained as an industrial worker or a completely new peasant.

No matter what it becomes, it is far better than his current life.

There will be food, clothing, and a real house, not a pile of adobe kennels.

It's a pity that he died. This has to be said to be a regret on both sides.

Dafanpu Village is not very big, and there are not many people who dare to resist.

Several gunshots rang out in a row, and suddenly all the villagers with weapons in their hands dropped their weapons, and one by one they honestly knelt on the ground according to the requirements of the Zhejia army, raising their hands high.

The men of the Guards Regiment were all standing on the periphery, holding guns and alerting the situation, in case there were any more ghosts who did not know how to die.

"Brother, don't die, get up quickly." Suddenly, a cry came, Dong Rui looked over, and saw a young woman lying on a corpse crying loudly.

This is a Han woman.

The Liao State was a country founded by the Khitans, but the Khitans were a minority, and a large number of the population was Han Chinese.

"I'm fighting with you!" The girl cried for a moment, then suddenly picked up the knife that her brother had dropped on the ground, got up and rushed towards the Guards.

"Don't shoot!" Dong Rui hurriedly issued an order.

This woman, if you can, don't kill it. Women, and their own people, are the best labor.

But if you don't kill her, you won't kill her, and you can't let her hurt the Guards. If a little woman tore our uniforms, it would be a big joke.

These soldiers of the Guards Regiment have a great deal of importance for their uniforms. If this woman dares to cut even a little bit of her uniform, she will definitely be tempted to shoot.

Dong Rui immediately rushed forward, snatched the knife from the woman's hand, and threw her to the ground again.

The men of the Folded Army rushed up and tied up the woman and brought her to the captive ranks.

Along the way, they are used to doing this kind of work, and they are familiar with the road.

In less than half a day, Dafanpu Village has been looted.

Population, livestock, food, iron, everything that belonged to strategic materials were gathered together, and then a group of troops came out of the army, said goodbye to the large army, and then escorted these supplies back to the base.

Wu Yue groggily followed the captive team.

She now has no relatives in this world.

Her father was in the leather room army of Liao in his early years, and died during the war.

A few years later, her mother also died of tuberculosis.

In the past two years, Wu Yue and her brother have relied on each other for their lives and lived hard. But today my brother is also dead.

What the hell is wrong with this God!

Wu Yue's head was full of anger, she wanted to kill people, kill all these people in front of her, these were all her enemies.

If these people dare to touch their bodies, Wu Yue swears that they will bite him to death with their teeth.

The fate of becoming a prisoner, Wu Yue knows very well. When his father was alive, he bragged to the Wuyue brothers and sisters about what happened when he was proud.

At that time, his father captured the prisoner, and the woman's appearance was punctual, and his father had to spoil it more than once.

At that time, the Wuyue brothers and sisters laughed when they heard it, and felt that their father was really capable and a big hero.

But I didn't think about it, feng shui takes turns, is today's retribution coming?

Wu Yue must not allow herself to be ruined by the enemy.

She had already made up her mind that she would be innocent even if she died!

She has been worried all the way, thinking about her dead brother and afraid that the enemy will spoil her, so she sleeps with one eye open at night.

But I never thought that I was not ruined along the way, but all women were not ruined.

This group of Song soldiers just let them walk honestly, and they didn't give them food and drink. As long as they don't resist, no one is abused.

What's going on with this?

Wu Yue couldn't figure it out. She knew how the Liao army treated the Song captives. Scolding is light. Her father, for example, had chopped off the heads of two unpleasant captives—for no other reason, but he didn't like them.

Aren't the Song soldiers different from the Liao soldiers?

But it's a good thing anyway, it seems that he won't be killed.

A group of captives kept walking westward, and finally on this day, Dongshengzhou appeared in front of everyone!

"It's finally time to get there." Someone in the captives muttered in a low voice.

In order to reassure the captives, the Zhejia army was allowed to reveal some information appropriately.

For example, I won't kill you, but I want you to work, and you can still have land and housing.

This reassured the captives a lot, whether it was true or not, there was finally such a hope.

Now that they have finally arrived in Dongshengzhou, the captives can't help but look up at the not-so-tall city wall.

The walls are guarded by the Orijia army. They shouted to the robes who had come back from afar.

"Zhang Laosan, your team has caught a little little. How many people are there, and the West Road team has already brought back more than 20,000 people. ”

"Li Laosi, don't stand and talk without back pain. Can the west be compared to the east? It's so crowded over there. ”

"Hahaha, come into the city, after the delivery, Lao Tzu will invite you to drink tonight."

"Talk counts! I haven't eaten fried chicken in over a month, and you've got to let me eat enough tonight! ”

The city gate was wide open, and in Wu Yue's opinion, it was like the devil's big mouth.

She walked through the gates and faded into the shadows of the doorway.

A ray of sunlight pierced the clouds and shone on the land.

Inside and outside the city of Dongshengzhou, the sun is shining everywhere.
