Chapter 415: Retreat to the South (4)

"You rely on yourself as the son of the Li family, and you regard the heroes of the world as reckless, but when you are a general, a commander of the army, and you don't know the civil affairs, you can't talk about the combination of rigidity and softness......

The old man in the green robe sat in the open-top carriage with a cover of a parasol at the top, held back a violent cough, and talked to Li Xiu and Li Mo, who were walking on the horse next to him.

Although there were still four or five thousand old and weak women and children scattered within ten miles to the north, more than 20,000 Lishui County residents still marched to the south of Nantangzhai within the three days agreed by Han Qian.

The scouts of the Chuzhou Army and the Nanya Forbidden Army from the left and right flanks also knew that there was an elite Chishan Army stationed in Nantangzhai, and they stopped twenty miles away and stopped to advance.

After that, as long as Gu Zhilong, the assassin of Xuanzhou, does not send troops from Langxi and Xuancheng in vain, and the people of Lishui County withdraw to the area east of Langxi, there will be no problem.

Under the supervision of Feng Yi and Zhang Ping, Li Pu finally made up his mind to deploy the soldiers and horses of the Second Capital of the Qiuhu Army, which was mainly composed of soldiers from the family clan, to the periphery, and to organize a group of small but capable law enforcement personnel from the First Capital to force the citizens of Lishui County, who were mainly from small families, to abandon their bloated and cumbersome things, and push some of the overly ornate but clumsy and wide carriages of the Zhu families into the ditches on the side of the road, or use them to fill in the ravines along the way.

Whether as a hostage or as a burden in the advancing ranks, the female dependents and young children who are often surrounded by a group of people who are in the same lineage and often surrounded by a group of people who are waiting for them are forcibly withdrawn from the slow-moving large army, and sent away by post roads and small roads first, and the chaotic team is immediately much smoother.

What's more, Han Qian sent people to use the original abandoned campsite to set up four fixed temporary rest and recuperation places along the way, and it was strictly forbidden to have any delay and hesitation on the way......

The chaotic contingent of more than 20,000 Lishui County residents soon became smooth and much faster.

Of course, there is another very key reason, that is, the democracy of more than 20,000 Lishui County is mainly based on the children of all families and personal slaves and maids, and even a considerable number of old and young children, personal slaves and maids are coarse with pen and ink, and they also know how to abide by the rules, and the degree of easy organization is much better than that of the people at the bottom.

Han Qian took Lin Haizheng, Zhao Wuji, Kong Xirong, Wei Chang and other first capitals of the Chishan Army, the guard battalion, and the main generals of the cavalry battalion who had withdrawn to Nantangzhai, all standing in front of Nantangzhai, waiting for Li Yu's chariot and horse to come.

Han Qian was wearing a collar of leather armor, a simple saber with a scabbard tied around his waist, his long hair was simply tied behind him, and there was no other decoration, just like the simplicity of Puyu, standing on the side of the road, he saw Li Yu barely coming over under the strong support of Li Zhen and Yao Xishui, and saluted to Li Yu and Yun Puzi, who was dressed as a Taoist priest and a fairy wind and bones on his side: "Han Qian greets the prince of the county and the envoy of the palace!" ”

This period of time has almost drained the last bit of Li Yu's energy, opened his cloudy eyes, and sighed for a while: "'Laughing Chu Jiang is empty, and you can't wash away the grievances of your ministers'." ”

Li Yu's words are a famous chapter of the poet and monk of the previous dynasty to praise Chu Chen Qu Yuan.

Han Qian smiled and said, "My father died generously, and Han Qian would not be confined to this without reciting the name of his life before and after his death. ”

Yao Xishui saw that Han Qian had just met and directly revealed Yun Puzi's identity, thinking that his secret attention to the hidden forces of the Shenling Division in Jianghuai was indeed beyond their imagination, and he secretly pondered the words of Han Qian and Li Yu.

Li Xiu and other young generals of the Li family, they are on one wing these days, and they have not tasted defeat in several contact fields, but at this time they have to lead the people of Lishui County to take refuge in the Chishan Army, and they are somewhat unwilling in their hearts, and they also secretly look at the generals of the Chishan Army behind Han Qian, and see Han Donghu, who cut off Liu Zishu's arm three days ago and was escorted by Zhao Wuji to Nantang Village to be held accountable.

Of course, the injured Liu Zishu is the son of the Lishui family, and if you want to endure this breath, there is no room for struggle for the Lishui family for the time being, and it is not their turn to replace them.

Li Yu was in very poor physical condition and was not suitable to stand for a long time under the scorching sun that was getting hotter, so he and Yun Puzi and other idle personnel first went to the temporary camp hastily built by the Qiuhu Army on the west side of Nantang Village to rest.

After Li Yu left, Han Qian formally greeted Li Pu, Wei Zhen, Yao Xishui, and the generals of the Qiuhu Army, Li Xiu, Li Mo, Wei Huang and others.

"Han Donghu, take off your armor." Han Qian said to Han Donghu behind him.

Han Donghu unbuttoned his armor and turned around, revealing several blood-colored whip marks crisscrossed and even more hideous and hateful without medicine.

"Han Donghu did not report that he led people to trespass into the camp of friendly troops, causing disturbance, and he should be punished with ten lashes on the law, and demoted to the martial arts officer as a cavalry battalion soldier for backup, please ask Marquis Li and Lord Wei to check it." Han Qian said calmly to Li Pu and Wei Zhen.

Of course, Li Pu and Wei Zhen could see the hateful whip marks on Han Donghu's back, but this matter was over?

Li Pu looked at Wei Zhen, when he saw Han Qian at this time, the most urgent thing was to talk about the resettlement of more than 20,000 people in Lishui County, who were mainly from various families, and there was no way to dwell on the details, but he didn't know if Wei Zhen was willing to accept such a result.

The green tendons on Wei Zhen's head twitched several times before he pressed down the evil qi in his heart, raised his old face, and arched his hand towards Han Qian and asked: "Lord Han's law is very strict, and the military is neat, Wei admires ......"

People are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, compared to those angry families, Wei Zhen has been in the world for half his life, he has seen the chaos of Jiang Zhun's war, he has seen the rare wind and snow in Jinling in the past ten years, and he has also seen the family Qingliu is so weak and vulnerable in front of the bloody martial arts.

Even if the Lishui family is twisted into a rope, it will be difficult to stop the soldiers of the Chishan Army, not to mention that they have no ancestral industry to rely on at this time, no strong city to defend, and there is not much difference between them and the wolf-like exile army, and they still want to rely on the Chishan Army to gain a foothold at the northern foot of Fuyu Mountain, what evil anger can not be swallowed?

Wei Zhen was able to endure this evil breath, and Li Pu was even more noncommittal, and followed Han Qian into the simple meeting hall of Nantang Village, and directly threw out the matter of the resettlement of the citizens of Lishui County.

The Chishan Army had nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the Qiuhu Army had 3,000 elites, although they could not afford too many casualties in a short period of time, and there were no extra materials to storm the fortified cities defended by the Xuanhu local state soldiers such as Langxi, Xuancheng, Changxing, and Anji, but there was no problem in controlling the entire territory of Guangde Jiuxian between Langxi and Anji.

The old realm of Guangde, including the northern foothills of Fuyu Mountain and the southern foothills of Jieling Mountain, is almost sixty or seventy miles deep.

Li Pu did not want to be completely attached to the Chishan Army, so the Qiuhu Army and the citizens of Lishui County wanted to gain a foothold in this area.

The Chishan Army had to protect nearly 300,000 old and weak women and children, and the pressure was extremely great, and Han Qian had no intention of making things difficult for Li Pu, so when he entered Nantang Village, he spread out the detailed map of the old county of Guangde that had only been made recently on the long case, pointed to the valley basin at the southern foot of Jieling Mountain, which is located between Jinzhongling and Xuanjiaoling, and said:

This place name Sitiandun, located in the southeast foot of Jieling Mountain, belongs to Changxing County, Huzhou, Xu's is its first hope, build a fort, at this time there are more than 400 people of the village soldiers. Although its land is wide and low, but the ravines are vertical and horizontal, the cultivated land is about more than 10,000 acres, and there are steep mountains around it, which are dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack - the North Vietnamese Zhuomu Ridge can enter Yangyang County, Runzhou, and the east out of the Hanging Ridge can enter Changxing County, Taihu Lake, Huzhou, and the Qiuhu Army can hunt mountain goods and stream fish to satisfy hunger, and can raise grain from Yangyang and Changxing County, or can survive the hunger......"

The Chishan Army is burdened with the burden of food for nearly 300,000 old and weak women and children, Han Qian will not take over the heavy responsibility of food for the Qiuhu Army and more than 20,000 Lishui County residents, and assign the Sitiandun within the southern foot of Jieling Mountain to Qiuhu Mountain, also hoping to interfere less with each other, and at the same time, Sitiandun also needs the Qiuhu Army to send elites to storm it down, and he will provide some intelligence support at most.

Li Pu bowed his head to study the topographic map, although it is still more than 100 miles to walk from Nantangzhai to Jinzhongling, but at present, more than 20,000 citizens of Lishui County have entered the area controlled by the Chishan Army, and they are not worried about losing in a short time, and the 3,000 elites of the Qiuhu Army can let go and storm Sitiandun.

However, this also means that the Qiuhu Army preceded the Chishan Army and tore its face with the local forces in Huzhou.

Of course, they don't have a better option than that.

The specific battle plan for the march and whether it is necessary to lay a foothold in Sitiandun, and to retreat and convene the generals of the Qiuhu Army to discuss in detail, Li Pu has other questions to ask Han Qian, stared into his eyes and asked:

"You are a beneficial, without saying hello, you led the Chishan army to withdraw from the periphery of Jinling, how do you plan to explain to Yue Yang and His Highness?"

"The 30,000 generals of the Chishan Army and the 3,000 elites of Qiuhu Mountain are all loyal to His Highness and Yueyang, isn't it an explanation?" Han Qian looked at Li Pu and asked indifferently, "If you can't save yourself, what are you talking about rebellion?" Hou Ye led the Qiuhu Army to withdraw, presumably he also understood these truths, why do you ask more? ”

Li Pu's brain twitched and twitched, and he scolded wildly in his heart, you are a seller, you are a seller, Lao Tzu doesn't want to be killed by you, but it has become a proof that you are wise and martial, and you have no last resort?
