Chapter 483: Things Suddenly Change
Although the cold of spring has gradually receded, the warm sunshine and the south wind are slowly surging, the open doors and windows, accepting the breath of spring, sitting in the cave, through the open doors and windows, you can see the opposite hillside, the newly reclaimed fields, and the people who are busy farming on the terraces, and then look up, the jungle, seems to have revealed a trace of color, of course, this is just an illusion of people, an illusion of spring expectations.
Through the wide open window, Wang Jian and Zhang Xiao sat at the stone table in the courtyard, looking at the busy crowd in the distance, while listening to the movement in the cave, once someone asked for water or something, the two brothers would do it immediately, otherwise they would never enter the house, now, the temperature outside the house is higher than the inside of the house,
Lu Shi's cave became crowded again, with bursts of noisy jokes and bursts of water bowls.
This time, because it was about Huanglong Tieying's joining the meeting, only the government officials in the base area were recalled, and militarily, only Guo Tianxing and Geng Kui participated.
Of course, the third uncle is present, this is a transcendent existence, and because the new base area also needs a certain amount of input at the beginning, and only by investing in it can there be output, which is an eternal law.
Lu Shi was still sitting on the chair against the wall, with sea bowls on the table in front of him, and a mountain of cases. Tieying Gu Feng was arranged to sit opposite Lu Shi, and at this time, he also let go, arguing and laughing with his brothers, and everyone was in harmony.
Zhu Tie was specially summoned into the meeting this time, Zhu Tie did not know the reason why he was specially recalled this time, but as long as it was summoned by King Chuang, there would never be a delay in the wind and rain, and after entering the cave and giving Lu Shi a proper salute, he sat quietly beside Lu Shi without saying a word.
Da Lang is also here, he is the leader of the mobile cavalry of the garrison, there are 1,000 cavalry under his command who originally surrendered, these cavalry are extraordinary, and at the same time, the food treatment in the base area has been far higher than at the beginning, and their relatives have also been received through various channels and properly settled, so now they are at ease and have become an absolute force in the base area. This time, Da Lang and Zhu Tie will send troops to Huanglong to clear the remaining general areas and Huanglong Guards.
Although Da Lang is considered a junior here, with his temperament and the support of Lu Shi's uncle, he is definitely happier than anyone else, and everyone also lets it.
Seeing that the personnel had arrived, Lu Shi knocked on the table and announced the meeting, at this time, people stopped talking and began to listen to Lu Shi announce the personnel arrangement.
Huang Long, the administrative officer, Gu Feng, was assigned to the jurisdiction of Chen Ce, and the soldiers immediately dispatched a group of government officials and veterans to the south, Wang Feng, also called Wang Huzi, recommended by Gu Feng of the garrison army, was assigned to Geng Kui's name, and Zhu Tie, the captain of the eighth team of the standing army, was under the command of the commander Guo Tianxing, and with the assistance of Wang Huzi and Da Lang's garrison cavalry, Huang Long implemented the base area policy and swept away the landlords who were not satisfied. Gu Nian was transferred to the Standing Army, formed the 11th team, and served as the captain.
The third uncle will allocate a certain amount of money, food, knives and guns in the logistics of the base area to strengthen the strength of the Huanglong garrison, and strive to form the Huanglong garrison as soon as possible into even half of the combat effectiveness of the invading army.
As for the potato seeds, only a part of them can be allocated, because the third batch of Zheng Hongda has not yet arrived, and even if it arrives, he didn't expect that there will be such a big variable, which is still not enough, so Huanglong can only share a little bit from each family and do all the emergency.
Everything was arranged in the meeting.
In the end, Lu Shi smiled and clapped his hands and concluded: "Things are arranged like this, everyone is preparing for the new base area, hurrying up to act, and the season waits for no one." I was invited by Brother Gu Feng to lead a team to Huanglong to have a look, and at the same time, it is convenient to find problems at any time and solve them at any time. Looking at the worry that flashed in Tianxing's eyes, Lu Shi's heart warmed, and then he opened his mouth to say something, and shook his hand, trust, give Gu Feng a kind of trust, this is very important.
Gu Feng also saw Tianxing's actions, and quickly stood up and bowed his hand to everyone: "Huanglong is new, and King Chuang needs to personally inspect it, one is to calm the people's hearts, and the other is to supervise the reorganization, as for the safety of King Chuang, Gu Feng will bear it with all his might, if there is any mistake in King Chuang during the period, I am willing to apologize with death." ”
When it comes to this, everyone has no choice but to acquiesce, but fortunately, there are 300 Zhu Tie spearmen and 1,000 Dalang cavalry, think about it, unless it is a plot, or even if there are thousands of troops and horses, there should be no worries about protecting the safety of King Chuang, and everyone still has this confidence.
But Guo Tianxing thought about it, and still proposed to let Lu Shi bring another long bow team, as well as an explosives bag attack team with a bed crossbow. Sweeping the remaining half of the wall, it is inevitable to meet the landlords who can't open their eyes, and the longbow team is still needed to attack the city.
The firearms battalion is an independent battalion, with three longbow teams, a tiger and elm spray team, and a bed crossbow explosives pack team.
Now the ordnance superintendent, Erlang according to Lu Shiyu's vague sketch, finally created a crossbow with a lever rocker, which is more than three times faster than the original old-fashioned crossbow shooting speed, but although this thing is simple to train, and the army is also fast, but the materials he requires are also high, and his base area cannot be mass-produced, and at the same time, these crossbows are to be equipped with cavalry to strengthen the long-range attack of cavalry, and they cannot be equipped now.
Lu Shi thought about it, and agreed, after all, Huanglongdi relied on the rich land of Weinan, where the landlord's powerful fortress was much stronger than this northern Shaanxi fortress, and he definitely had the strength to resist his own policy, and it was necessary to bring a captain of archers, especially the crossbow explosives bag of the big killing weapon, which was even more necessary.
"The matter is urgent, I would like to implore King Chuang to set off tomorrow with his soldiers, in case there are many dreams at night, after all, we have many factions there, and once the time passes, there will be all kinds of unnecessary thoughts."
Lu Shi nodded, and then said to Third Uncle Chen Ce: "Just do what Brother Gu Feng said, in terms of materials, I will bring a batch of knives and guns first, and the rest, Third Uncle Chen Ce will hurry up and come later." ”
Third Uncle Chen Ce nodded in agreement.
"I'll go with King Chuang." Guo Tianxing was still not at ease, so he stood up and brought it up.
Lu Shi shook his hand and said with a smile: "You and I are leaving, if there is any urgency in the base area, won't it delay the big thing?" It is enough for me to go, the commander sits in the old camp, and then assists the Chen Ce brothers, this is the right reason. ”
Guo Tianxing thinks about it, it is also like this, the old camp must leave a decisive seat, and go to Huanglong by himself, some unexpected things, he really can't deal with it.
Big things must be, and then I talked about some details, and then everyone rushed to their own devices.
Zhu Tie and Da Lang didn't dare to slack off, and they also knew that they had a heavy burden on their shoulders, so they hurriedly returned to their own team to mobilize urgently, and talked about the matter of protecting the safety of King Chuang this time.
When the army arrived in Luochuan, Wu Tao and Mr. Li came out to greet them, handed over the meeting gifts to the Huanglong brothers nearby, and then said goodbye.
Lu Shi's army moved forward, but Wu Tao and Mr. Li did not dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly gathered the original Luochuan standing army spear corps, and immediately notified the reorganized cottage brothers in various places to assemble their own troops and garrison them at the junction of Huanglong and Luochuan, and wait for the enemy to prevent accidents.
There was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping here, others were nothing, but they frightened Luochuan and the big and small officials and the landlords who had strange thoughts, thinking that the Chuang army was going to attack them, but looking at the Chuang army was just waiting between Huanglong and Luochuan, and slowly guessed the roots and seedlings, and while they were happy, they also began to sigh - Huanglong, it's over.
Entering the Yellow Dragon, I saw that there was a dilapidated road along the way, and at this time, I still saw a large area of barren land, even if it was the land of the landlord's family, it was only under the escort of the landlord Xiang Yong, and there were some lifeless people preparing for cultivation there, and they couldn't see the slightest anger at all.
Along the way, from time to time, I saw the homeless people who helped the old and the young, carrying their poor belongings, not to flee to the south to the rich Weinan as in previous years, but to the north, to Luochuan, to Fuxian County.
But when I met Lu Shi and other large groups of people on the road, I was panicked and frightened at first, thinking that the officers and soldiers were coming, but looking at the legendary banner, there were immediately bursts of cheers and crying, and hundreds of people knelt down on the side of the road and cried, so that Lu Shi had to dismount again and again to appease.
When King Chuang promised that he would come to build a base in this Huanglong, the displaced people immediately stopped going north, but rushed to their hometown happily with their families, waiting for the army to divide the land and land, reduce rent and interest, and it was difficult to leave their homeland, and it was better to have home.
And those landlords and villagers, when they saw the banner of breaking the word, immediately left the tenants who were guarded, howled and ran into the fortress, closed the gate of the village, strictly guarded it, and watched the movement, although those tenants who were working in the fields did not dare to cheer like the homeless people, but standing in the fields, their faces also showed excitement and hope.
This is evident from the people's will.
While marching, suddenly there were more than a dozen brightly dressed people standing on the side of the road, with a few carts at their feet, and there were some wine and food on the carts, and the sergeant asked, but it was some local gentry, who heard that the army was coming, and knew that the world was going to change, since they couldn't resist, they simply surrendered, paid some protection fees, and were less frightened.
"Chuangwang, this is my small village, please check and receive it." Outside a small mountain pass, Gu Feng pointed to a small cottage and said to Lu Shidao.
Seeing that the chief scoop leader came with a team of intruders, the leader of the guarding the village hurriedly went out of the village to greet him, Lu Shi was surrounded by everyone, Gu Feng said his decision to the leader who was still worried about the left behind, and the people in the cottage also let out bursts of cheers, which made Gu Feng happy for a while, but also embarrassed, while congratulating himself for making the right decision, there was also a different kind of taste in his heart.
According to the prior plan, the condolences appeased the people of this small village, leaving two military officials and a squad of spearmen, the army did not stop, and hurried to Gu Feng's old camp.
On this day, the army moved forward, looked at the left near, Gu Feng smiled and said: "King Chuang, you can see the gate of the old camp after walking three miles, is it not everyone here to rectify the formation?" ”
Gu Feng's thoughts, Lu Shi knew, but it was just to show military might and deter Xiao Xiaoxiao. So he nodded, in addition to the cavalry and longbowmen, the spearmen behind him were constantly distributed to those political officials scattered in the four townships as escorts, and there was only one Wu fifty brothers left, but these were enough to show, so he said to the brothers who had marched for many days behind him, but were still in strict formation: "Straighten out the team, raise some spirits, we-"
As soon as he said this, he heard Gu Feng's exclamation, Lu Shi turned around and followed his gaze, but saw that the old camp he said was already full of smoke and flames.
