Chapter 223: Crazy Reward
Lu Shizheng was in the rear team to discuss with Zhao Dahai and others about blocking the border army, and Guo Tianxing in front sent a supervisor sergeant to report that there was also a military situation in front of him, and he asked the military advisor to plan and decide
Lu Shi didn't panic, blocking and chasing after him, this was already in his expectations, if the guards all stood by and watched, then he would be worried
So he stood up calmly, stretched the wrinkled robe on his body, and calmly said to the brothers: "The general thing is like this, about how to command this upcoming blockade, it will be discussed by Brother Zhao and Brother Geng Kui."
Zhao Dahai and Geng Kui stood up and nodded solemnly: "Brother (military advisor) rest assured, this place will be handed over to us"
History arched his hand and said: "You are at my ease, the only thing I ask of the two of you is that from today onwards, you will be the last soldier left in the war, and you must insist on withdrawing from here to catch up with the brigade in three days."
"It's not that I live up to it, it's our father, wife, and son," Lu Shi corrected and then muttered: "This sedan chair is difficult to lift, let's work hard."
All the brothers were silent, only the determination on their faces represented their determination
When Lu Shi walked through the ranks of the old camp marching in a hurry, the people who were already tired saw Lu Shi, who was relying on white clothes and white horses in their hearts, cheered excitedly one by one, and the shouts of the king rose one after another, and the marching speed of the team accelerated again
When the former army team came, they saw Tianxing and Zhao Xing on a maoliang
"What's the situation," Lu Shi asked bluntly before he had time to greet him
"The Suide official army has been dispatched," Zhao Xing stepped forward to salute, and then reported worriedly
"This is reasonable, there is nothing to worry about," Lu Shi nodded, smiled slightly, and then asked, "How many people?"
"Brother Supervisor came to report, because the officers and soldiers did not have a complete formation, and the chaos could only be estimated, there were about 5,000 people, and there were not a few cavalry."
Lu Shi was stunned for a moment, what is the situation, the sergeant supervisor has always been rigorous, why is he so vague this time, and turned his eyes to look at Chen Ce
Chen Ce stepped forward and Shi Li analyzed: "According to this situation, it seems that the township Yong Ding temporarily recruited by Suide did not have time to rectify the training due to the urgency of time, because we suddenly accelerated and caught them off guard, so we hurriedly dispatched troops."
"Then why don't they rely on the fortified city to defend it," Lu Shi asked in wonder, at this time, his original map was gone, and now he is not familiar with the terrain and features, but this Suide told the land that the common sense is also to rely on the terrain to defend it, so Lu Shi asked Zhao Xing blankly
Zhao Xing stepped forward and analyzed: "Suide County is on the west side of the Wuding River Valley, and our army is on the east side of the river valley, and the Suide City is just a decoration for us, and it can't play a role in blocking our way, so they want to complete the assignment of the upper peak, so they can only go out of the city to line up and fight with us in the field."
Lu Shiwen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, there is such a good thing, this is really a bit of a feeling that God is taking care of the traverser
As soon as Mizhi entered the Suide realm, Lu Shi felt that the terrain here was definitely not conducive to attacking fortifications, but only conducive to defense, as long as the officers and soldiers took out a decent three or five thousand men and horses to choose a dangerous place in the Wuding River Valley to hold on, then they would trap themselves and these horses and die, if they wanted to kill them, they would need countless of their brothers' lives and blood to open the way, but in this era, the means of attacking the city are scarce, and a small fortress may cost a lot of their time and life, and what they lack most is time, and what they are most unwilling to pay is the lives of their brothers
This time, it's okay, that Suide is useless to himself, and Suide signed Ding's military household actually had to go out of the city to fight, this time he has a strong army, but a group of real rabble, the odds of victory are quite large, how is this not God's care
"In this case, the third uncle will now order the old camp to stop advancing, camp on the spot, hurry up and make food, rest and recover his strength."
The third uncle nodded and ordered the herald soldiers around him to go down and inform, and immediately a war horse galloped down the mountain, running along the old camp brigade and shouting: "The military advisor has ordered the old camp to stop marching, bury the pot and cook, and rest quickly."
As the order was given, the old battalion commander's dragon-like procession slowly stopped, and those people who had been hurrying overnight hurried to sit or fall down on the road to rest, a group of women began to look for river water, make fires, cook, let everyone recover their strength, and the baggage soldiers began to help the coachman unload the mules and horses, arrange fodder, etc., and the rest of the baggage soldiers separated and began to guard the whole camp
Lu Shi stood on a high place, and saw that although everyone was tired, all kinds of work were done in an orderly manner, and his heart couldn't help but become stable
"For the commander of the Suide official army, please take your Black Tiger Guard to catch up, see the enemy, don't be reckless, and act at the opportunity."
"Yes"
"The three captains immediately reorganized the spear corps, led by me, followed behind the commander, with the cooperation of the commander, blocked the Suide officers and troops to defeat them in the field," Lu Shi arranged with confidence
"Yes," the three captains turned and drove away
"Brother Cao Meng, tell everyone not to panic, we will definitely be able to open a safe passage for everyone"
"Rest assured, everyone has confidence in our soldiers"
"Brother Chen Ce, you immediately dispatch 1,500 heavy troops to wear armor and prepare for battle, once the battle in front is stalemate, you immediately take your brothers to kill them, don't hesitate."
"Yes"
A strong army of 1,200 well-trained people was absolutely sure to defeat a group of rabble who had just laid down their hoes
Zhao Qianhu with a group of nearly 5,000 signers, each with a handkerchief wrapped around their heads, but wearing a torn sheepskin jacket that may have been worn for several generations, with straw rope cloth tied around their waists, wearing straw sandals, some barefoot and chaotic drive out of the county without leaving, the pontoon bridge in front of the city is on the ice of the Wuding River, which is frozen like iron, rumbling and noisy, there is no formation, no organization, these thousands of people are in a group of east and west, or carrying knives and guns, or holding wooden sticks, calling friends and friends, rushing to the unknown battlefield
Before going out of the city, Lord Qianhu and Lord Xianzun said that the opponent on the other side was mainly old and weak, and the rogue who was chased by the border army was the heavens, there was no way into the ground, and they were panicked like a lost dog, and they hurried like a fish that slipped through the net, and they were simply the rabble of the rabble, and after hundreds of miles of days and nights, they fled in a hurry, and the combat power was not worth mentioning at all
And look at yourself, there are 5,000 strong men on your side, all of them are strong men, and they are all strong men of Suide, and there are 600 regular guards and soldiers who are in the army, so as to recuperate, eat and drink well, and deal with the exhausted and fleeing hooligas, that is, money and food, that is reward
Just now, the county respected Zhou Ji and the lord said, kill the thief, reward millet for a fight, kill the old and weak thief, reward millet for a liter, kill the leader of the thief, reward five taels of silver, take or kill the bullshit military advisor named Lu Shi in them, and report to the seal official
The reward for wounding ten silver wagons was the cost of burning fifty taels of silver for the war wounded
This is also secondary, and the most attractive thing is that after this war, these people were exempted from conscription money and food for the next year
As soon as this reward came out, everyone was ecstatic
Exempted from forced labor for a year, that is to say, you don't have to bring food for the official family for more than half a year of labor, and the food saved, not to mention that it is more than half a year, and you can throw yourself in your own field if you don't miss the agricultural time, how much more production you have to increase, what kind of grace is that, and the money and grain for next year will be exempted, and all the people will cry bitterly, and the tax on one acre of imperial grain is twice the output of the land, if it weren't for Lord Zhou's compassion for these small people, the silted up fields are not counted, then everyone would have starved to death, you didn't see that other counties had to sell their wives and children in order to finish the grain, and the whole village fled the famine, and the exchange or ate each other's children was commonplace, this time, it was really like thatYou can breathe a sigh of relief
Also, there is the fact that Lord Qianhu said that the woman who was captured in this battle made a wife for everyone
Although everyone saw that Lord Zhou Ji was silent and just frowned, but there was no objection, everyone cheered even more
Suide is poor, even if there are women, they are sold to traffickers and sent to other places, even if they are prostitutes, it is better than starving to death here, and most men can't afford to marry wives
Let's not mention, the opposite side is just a group of rabble who fled in a hurry, that is, the real officials and soldiers, in the eyes of these Suide men, they are just a group of local chickens and dogs, and as for life and death, it is not to mention, born for a day, it is a day of sin, and if you die, you just don't wake up, if you are dead or injured, there is also a pension for the family, and it is cost-effective to change a life for a family to live
It's just a pity that the adults only mention the silver and don't mention the copper coins, which makes everyone a little disappointed, what the silver is like, we don't know what everyone is usually just bartering, and occasionally get some precious copper coins, and the silver has no impression at all
When the county lord took out an ingot of white flowers, everyone was still confused, but when the county master explained that this was silver, the audience went crazy
Silver, this is the legendary silver, this is the object that these Suide bitter men have just heard and never seen in their lives, for them, a few copper plates are very cherished things, and I heard the county zun say that this ingot can be exchanged for 50,000 pieces of good money, 50,000, what a lot of it, that is beyond the scope of their imagination
No one doubts whether this reward can be obtained, and everyone absolutely trusts that it is a good official, and if a good official speaks, it will definitely count
The thousand households still had to give an impassioned speech, and they had to dispatch left and right, but the man at the bottom couldn't wait, and a man shouted in the crowd: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and grab the silver, grab the woman?"
So, in response, all the people who had become crazy pushed open the gate of the county town together, pushed away the soldiers who wanted to stop them, and rushed to the river beach like a flood, rushed to the river valley, and rushed to their silver women
