Chapter 493: Wandering Crime (2)

At the same time, the five old soldiers prepared enough stones the size of eggs, sneaked under the castle, and led the sentry at the head of the city to reveal the head of the city, and a few stones flew into the face, and the next moment there was a scream, which alarmed the surrounding sentinels.

"What happened just now!"

The captain shouted, and the torch shone carefully, and the soldiers on the ground had their faces covered with blood, covering their eyes with one hand, and still holding a stone in their mouths, and most of their teeth were gone, and they groaned in pain, and could no longer speak:

"Damn it, it has to be those pariahs!"

The captain shouted, and when he came to the head of the city and threw out a torch, he saw several figures disappear into the darkness outside the west of the city.

"Filthy pig, come on, carry him down, go and tell the head of the joint regiment that the untouchables have attacked our people!"

"Yes!"

In a few hours, the castle bell rang, and the Jin Xuedi soldiers who were cowering in the castle quickly rushed to the west gate, and everything next was as Bailiyan expected, the iron fence of the west gate made a metallic sound, and the winch on the city gate dragged the iron fence to slowly open, and more than 20 cavalry guarded the door.

"Capture them and slaughter them!"

The unclothed commander of the regiment stood on the balcony of the castle, waving his long sword in his hand, and the cavalry under the castle urged his horses out of the city.

Almost at the same time, the iron fence hit the top of the door with a bang, and Fang Liang in the dark ordered:

"Tian Peng, let's go!"

"Okay, don't hack them to death ten or eight, I still don't believe it, phew!"

Spit two mouthfuls of spit into the palm of his hand, Tian Peng picked up the two big axes on his waist, and rushed out, Fang Liang and the others followed, and the old soldiers of the Xian army were even more flying, and the column ran in the front, almost when the cavalry of the Jin Xuedi people rushed out of the city gate, the old soldier of the Xian army had already killed him with a gun, and it was a stab at the horse's stomach.

Call......

The war horse wailed, the Jin Xuedi people fell to the ground one by one, and the cavalry followed closely behind, and the rear was either stabbed or stumbled and fell, and the salty army poured into the city gate, and supported two large logs that had been prepared for more than one person high on the left and right walls under the iron fence, and at this time the city head had already found that the killing sound under the city suddenly rose:

"Oh no, the pigs have rioted!"

The soldiers shouted loudly, and the head of the West Gate City quickly released the noose, and the iron fence fell with a bang, and the spikes at the lower end of the iron fence were impartial, and the large logs on the left and right sides were stuck in the air.

Tianpeng had already rushed to the door at this time, and was startled by the sound just now, and immediately spat and scolded:

"Damn, it's really yin, if this is smashed down, Lao Tzu won't give the gate into two sections. Damn, rush me and hack them to death! ”

Tian Peng raised his arms and led the men and horses straight into the city, Fang Liang followed, hundreds of people quickly rushed into the city, and the sound of killing suddenly boiled.

Bai Liyan listened to the killing sound in the west of the city, her eyes were indeed staring at the east gate, and she wondered in her heart that if the Jin Xuedi people couldn't hold on, they could only flee from the east gate. Thinking of this, Baili Yan said:

"Everyone, please note that if there are deserters at the east gate later, they are not to be intercepted. Do you get it? ”

"Got it!" Everyone spoke in unison.

Under the surprise attack, the Jin Xuedi people were caught off guard, many people hurriedly entered the battle without clothing, and even had no time to put on helmets and armor, carrying long swords were put into battle, facing the absolute superiority of the Xian army, the victory quickly fell to the Xian army.

When the sky was slightly bright, the east gate finally opened, and several people fled in panic on horseback, followed by more than ten infantry, and some were killed under Fang Liang's pursuit.

Seeing that Jin Xuedi's people fled far away, Baili Yan ordered the seven hundred people behind him to hide and return to the camp by the same way, and then came to the city:

"Fang Liang, how are the casualties?"

"Twenty-seven dead, one hundred and thirty-five."

Bai Liyan knew that Xinding's combat strength was weak, but she didn't expect so many people to be killed and injured, so she simply didn't die the old soldier, but only injured a handful.

"How many are there in the defenders?"

"Three hundred and twenty-eight bodies were found, more than fifty others were trapped in the dungeon, and more than sixty were captured alive. In addition, there are more than 100 women, and there are several Jinxuedi women. How the leader is going to dispose of it. ”

"Remove all the munitions that can be removed, take only our wounded and corpses, and ignore the others. No matter how much you load, you must hit the road immediately before dawn. ”

"Got it!"

The beacon was lit when the Jinxuedi people fled, and the reinforcements of the Jinxuedi people could arrive before noon, and the cavalry would be faster.

The castle of 3,000 people was really not much, and only more than 100 reserve weapons, a number of crossbows and bows were found in the arsenal, and the total number of weapons captured was more than 400 pieces, but there were a lot of arrows, far more than the amount needed for a battle of 3,000 people, and it was all an increase in stock for shooting the rioting villagers.

Since the cavalry had all been dispatched, there were not many horses in the castle, but there were some unicorns that could still be used.

He quickly withdrew from the castle before dawn, and did not kill all the Jinxuedi people as before, so as to confuse the Jinxuedi people and make them think that the Xian army that attacked the city wall last year came all the way to commit the crime.

After all, before that, not everyone can do the cruel means of killing all of them.

Before leaving, Bai Liyan found something valuable from a room in the castle that should be considered a conference room. For example, the jurisdiction map of the defense area and the distribution of the mining area are more detailed than the wide-area map previously searched, and the new administrative area is drawn in more detail. All the castles, small towns, and villages east of the Posong River are on several maps, which can be described as a treasure.

Back at the camp in the woods, Su Hong was doing the tail sweeping.

"General, it doesn't seem like there's a lot of stuff."

"Pick up a few important pieces and take them away, too many will affect the hurry, how are you prepared here."

"I've almost disguised the traces of the escape to the north, let's go directly to the south of the creek and turn back, and we won't be discovered."

"Then let the pioneers go, it will also save time."

"The last general obeys!"

There is a stream that flows from south to north in the depths of the forest, and with the help of the stream, you can eliminate the footprints and not be detected. At the same time, let Su Hong lead the people to leave footprints in the northwest direction, in order to confuse the Jin Xuedi people who would follow after them in the future.

They met Fang Liang and Tian Peng one after another, and hurriedly buried the bodies of their own people, and then the army turned back to the south.

At the same time, the beacon fire ignited in the castle was the first to attract the 2,000 people who were frantically searching for Bailiyan.

Three days later, when the news of the destruction of the outer castle reached the Posong City Palace, Gudapa Tie asked the well-dressed magistrate with a blushing face:

"Do you know which group of Dalit rebels did it?"

"It's not clear, but it's certain that this time it was a riot, and they had at least a thousand or more people."

"Is there any news from the insider?"

"Not yet, we still have no way of knowing the exact whereabouts of many Dalit rebels, and we have no way to penetrate our informants."

"The military supplies transported to the front line will soon arrive in Posong Province, and the main local army will be responsible for escorting them, so that people can release the news that a batch of materials will be transported to the construction site, so that the auxiliary army will be ready to encircle and annihilate them."

"Yes, my lord!"

During the northern expedition of the Jin Xuedi people, a whole regiment was replenished every year to offset the casualties and consumption of the front line, and the supplies carried by hundreds of thousands of unicorn horses escorted by the regiment could be used for the needs of the entire northern expedition for a year.

The remnants of the army and the wounded soldiers who were withdrawn from the front line to escort the booty, as well as the captive population and the idle one-horned manan anti-homeland, greatly improved the logistics efficiency and avoided the idle capacity and troops on the way to logistics transit.

Gudapa pinned his hopes on the main army to move north, luring out the rioters hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, and then wiped them out.

After attacking the castle, Bailiyan led his army to make a little repair, and then left the land of right and wrong and continued south, but never left the forest.

To the west, a large area of developed territory crisscrossed by roads and villages, made it difficult for more than 4,000 people to march covertly. Bai Liyan is even more convinced of the so-called resistance army of tens of thousands of people, at best only a few hundred people.

Bailiyan thought that he had already obtained a lot of supplies by building a castle, but he couldn't support 4,000 people at all, and it was obvious that he couldn't satisfy the tens of millions of rebels by just fighting a small fight.

Looking at the map of the administrative districts marked to the west, Bai Liyan sighed:

"Relying on robbery alone is not a long-term solution after all, it has to be grounded."

"Chief, what's the base?" Fang Liang asked puzzled.

"Base land...... Bai Liyan touched his chin and pondered for a long time: "The base land is our territory, but what about it, the Jin Xuedi people can't get in, or they can't reach it, and they can provide us with land to eat and drink, and solve the minimum food problem." ”

"It can't be."

Su Hong was not optimistic about Baili Yan's idea of the Arabian Nights, and Bai Li Yan also sighed:

"Yes, the local people are strange, and if you want to have a base area, it is obviously impossible to have a base without the cover of the common people. But if you get too close, it is easy to be found and encircled by the Jinxuedi people, which is really worrying. ”

"If you want me to say, you're all brainless!"

Tian Peng said self-righteously, and Su Hong was quite angry:

"How do you speak, you should pay attention to me and take a look!"

"It's not simple, just rob the granary of the white-haired thief, isn't it?"

As soon as the words came out, Su Hong laughed:

"Do you think that the granary is said to be robbed, the granary is a major event of the military aircraft, and the granary is all located in a confidential place, how can it be known by us!"

"That's right." Fang Liang agreed: "The grain we hunt every year is collected by the white-haired thieves and shipped to other places, we don't know where their granary is, otherwise the other rebels would have already laid the granary. ”

Everyone had different opinions, and Bai Liyan was silent, looking at several maps in front of him, comparing the similarities and differences. After a moment of thought, his gaze finally fell on the north of the cities of Qamis and Bakusaa.

There is a river nearby, a plain on the north bank, a wharf, a high ground on the south bank, and a wooded block near the highland, not close or far from the road, and there are two cities nearby. What's more, the distance to the border east of Po Song province is just right.

Based on the technical conditions for building warehouses in the Central Plains, taking into account the convenience of strategic reserve turnover and transportation, and the distribution of human resources, the local area fully meets the standard of setting up granaries near populated areas, and it is not excluded that there are warehouses in the forests along the rivers near the two places, even if they are not military warehouses, most of them may be relief warehouses, in terms of geographical location, it is said to be a good place to live, but it may also be used for grain storage.
