Chapter 64 Li Zhong personally conquered Yingchuan, and Wang Mang boosted morale
However, he said that a few days ago, after Li Yi, the younger brother of the Wanzhou prefect, attacked and killed Chen Chong unsuccessfully, he bound himself to see Li Zhong and fell to the ground to ask for death.
Li Zhong was surprised and asked why.
In his opinion, Li Yi personally led more than a dozen martial arts masters to Yingchuan to attack and kill Chen Chong, and this matter will definitely succeed, and there will be no reason for failure.
Now that Li Yi has fled from defeat, he is puzzled.
Li Yi said that he suddenly killed Cheng Biting Jin halfway, and he was extremely angry and aggrieved in his heart.
Li Zhong listened to the details and said suspiciously: "According to what you said, you didn't see other people rushing towards you with your own eyes at that time, and it was all that woman fighting with you?" ”
"Yes!" Li Yi nodded and said, "Big brother, that woman doesn't know where she came from, and her martial arts are very high, and it is difficult for us to match her." ”
"I see, it's not your fault, get up."
Li Zhong's eyes flickered a few times, as if he was interested, and said to himself: "It's just a little bookkeeper Chen Chong, I didn't expect to meet a master to help." It seems that he should not have died that day. ”
"Big brother, what should I do now?" Li Yi asked.
"It's just a trivial matter." Li Zhong said with a smile: "Although Chen Chong has some talent, there is nothing particularly against the sky. The first few times he took advantage of a few loopholes, it was just because we didn't put our minds on him. Well, since this person has some luck, then I will go through it myself. ”
"Shhhh
Li Yi was shocked and said in a trembling voice: "Big brother, do you want to lead the army in person?" Chen Chong's house is just a puppet, please give me another chance to do it, I will definitely take his head, and I won't work for my eldest brother. ”
Li Zhong replied: "The lion fights the rabbit, and he does his best." Since Chen Chong was able to escape with his life in your hands, this means that his luck is not bad. If I can keep him under the tent, it would be the best, if not, I will cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Throughout the ages, there have been many little people who have grown up between tribulations and tribulations, and I can't give Chen Chong this opportunity. This trip is to make a complete decision. After taking Yingchuan, he drove straight into it and unified the entire Yuzhou. Li Yi, you don't need to say much about this matter, I have my own plans. ”
"Yes, big brother!"
Li Yi didn't dare to say anything more, and slowly retreated.
----
Midnight!
In the direction of the west gate of Yingchuan City, the people of the entire Yingchuan City are basically all here, and there are about nearly 80,000 people.
Only a few wealthy people, as well as some people who really did not want to leave, did not come.
At this moment, the lights at the gate of the city are bright, and the people are holding the young. Child, child. The woman, the father, and the mother, holding torches high, lit up almost the entire city.
After Chen Chong quieted everyone down, he ordered the few hundred remaining soldiers in the city to divide into two teams and lead the people out of the city.
As for the materials needed along the way, they were also carried by some young and strong people, or those rich families helped to carry them, and all the evacuations were in order.
Wang Mang led Wang Jingyan and the six servants, as well as Yuan Qing and Xiang Wei, to silently watch the evacuation scene of the people in the rear, comparing these scenes with the situation of fleeing in his previous life.
After some comparison, he found that these people were far better off than those who fled in his previous life. At the very least, some of the people here have yearning and hope on their faces, and there are very few dead ashes. Unlike in the previous life, the faces of those people all showed sadness, confusion, helplessness, and despair.
Although these people are also equivalent to fleeing, in general, they still have food security, some soldiers to protect them, and there are fields and houses to share at the destination. There is a seed of hope in my heart, and there is hope to build a complete home again.
Once a person has hope and hope, he can overcome almost all kinds of difficulties and be afraid of all challenges.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you will be the heroes of my Yuzhou and the foundation of my Yuzhou. When I finish the rest of the business, I will be kind to you. Wang Mang muttered.
Wang Jingyan and the others looked at it for a while, and there were some doubts in their hearts, and they asked, "Xianggong, why aren't you worried that these people will be in turmoil?"
Since ancient times, the will of the people has been difficult to fathom. It will take at least a few months to go to Yuzhou. Wouldn't it be troublesome if these people were to make a riot and rob the food and money? A few hundred soldiers can't suppress tens of thousands of people. ”
Wang Mang replied: "Jingyan, this is what you don't know about the thoughts of the poor and fleeing people. Poor families only want peace and basic food and clothing, not wealth.
Now that we are doing this in a righteous way, it is equivalent to their patron saint, how can they rebel? Now that the war is in chaos, what can they do if they rob the grain?
Among these people, there may be some people with bad intentions, who will think of rebelling, robbing food, and then setting themselves up as kings.
However, this kind of person is a minority after all, and the majority of the people still know it in their hearts. At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, and this is even reasonable. As long as that kind of person who does evil dares to come forward and does not need to be suppressed by soldiers, the rest of the people will not allow this kind of thing to happen, and they will definitely attack them en masse. As long as the interests are in line with the public, the public will be united.
Of course, if everyone arrives in a relatively peaceful place, they will naturally have desires, and then they may forcibly divide and rob the grain. However, when the people get to that kind of place, we will also take care of the follow-up. ”
"I see!" Wang Jingyan nodded, "Xianggong, how do you know this?" Also, if you hadn't done that bad thing, maybe you'd be a perfect person, as if you knew everything. ”
"If you see more, see more, and experience more, you will naturally know. As for Ning Xuan's incident, if she doesn't come to me in the future, I will also go to her. Wang Mang smiled faintly and withdrew his gaze.
He was not worried that these people would be in turmoil, but he was a little worried that the road was far away, and he would encounter other forces to suppress them, or some vicious rogues and bandits. Disaster.
Tens of thousands of people were like a long dragon, slowly moving away. The strong men who stayed behind looked at the old father, mother, brother and sister leaving, with tears in their eyes and clenched their fists.
Time flies, and when the evacuation is complete, the figures of the people disappear completely. Everyone could only dimly see from a distance that there was a ray of fire flickering in the distance. It shows that those people have left Yingchuan and will never return to the old scene.
Chen Chong handed over a thick booklet to Wang Mang, and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, this is the roster of soldiers in the whole army compiled by the lower officials, which all record their respective families and origins. In the afternoon, I left about 30% of the money and food brought by the rich men in the city as military supplies, and all the rest was evacuated with the people. ”
Wang Mang did not take the booklet, but said with a smile: "Lord Chen, you are the city lord, you have to keep this thing alive, and we must be able to find out the situation of every surviving or dead soldier after we arrive in Yuzhou, and not let their parents not know the situation of their son." ”
"Yes, Lord Wang, I will take care of it." Chen Chong nodded.
Wang Mang looked at the young people who stayed, and there were nearly 5,000 people.
Although these more than 6,000 people are not strong in combat and are not as strong as real soldiers, they can be regarded as a large number of people, which can cause certain psychological obstacles to the other side.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these fathers and elders must pass through the rear of the place where our army is stationed when they go to Yuzhou. Thinking about it, Li Zhong saw so many people fleeing, and he would definitely stop it. At this moment, we should hurry to the front line, fight with Li Zhong, and hold off their forces. Let them have no time to take care of other things. After a few days, we can evacuate together. Wang Mang shouted.
"Yes, Lord Wang, I will swear to hold Li Zhong's army to the death, and prevent them from dividing their troops to suppress their father." Everyone said in unison.
"Good!"
Wang Mang laughed and shouted: "The big husband stands up to the sky, if he doesn't do a big thing vigorously, wouldn't he come to the world for nothing?" This time, the people's departure route was behind the front-line soldiers.
If the front line collapses, many civilians will be slaughtered. For our old fathers and mothers, for our young. Children and young children. Female, we must wave the sword in our hands, summon up our courage, and show our courage to regard death as home.
Let Li Zhong's army see that it was not because we were powerless before, but because we were unwilling to fight each other. At this moment, the strong man was angry, and he should splatter blood for five steps. This battle is the battle of the opening of the heavens, the battle of our lives for stability, and the battle of glory for us as great husbands....."
"Tremble, tremble! The sky collapse has my top, and the earth crack has my resistance. The big husband stands up to the sky and the earth, stepping on the mountains and rivers. ”
Wang Mang constantly boosted the morale of these strong men and shouted shocking slogans one after another.
Seeing this, Chen Chong waved his hand, raised the sword at his waist, and also shouted: "Sharpen my big sword, and treat death as home." Swing my sword and move forward. An inch of mountains and rivers will give you ten thousand bloods. To protect the family and defend the country, life and death are up to heaven. The strong man was furious, and blood splattered five steps. ”
"War, tremble, tremble.... Sharpen my big knife and look at death as home. Swing my sword and move forward. ”
"War, tremble, tremble.... Sharpen my big knife and look at death as home. Swing my sword and move forward. ”
"War, tremble, tremble.... Sharpen my big knife and look at death as home. Swing my sword and move forward. ”
Everyone shouted in unison, and the rolling sound waves were like thunder in the nine heavens, which never stopped for a long time, spreading for thousands of miles.
Wang Jingyan on the side heard the earth-shattering shout, and the whole person was shocked. A pair of pink fists clenched, eager to use his daughter to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Wang Mang took Wang Jingyan and turned over on his horse, took the lead in rushing out of the city gate, and rushed in the direction of the front-line soldiers.
"Drive, drive, drive!"
He kept waving the leather whip in his hand, driving the war horse to gallop wildly, and the lightning was like the wind.
Yuan Qing, Xiang Wei and others were afraid of making a mistake, so they all turned over and followed closely behind, raising dust and galloping away.
Chen Chong waved his hand and said, "Everyone, at this moment, you are my soldiers of Yingchuan City, not the people of Yingchuan City. As a soldier, he must obey military orders and must not disobey. The soldiers listened to the order, and the whole army marched as soon as possible, and went straight to Qiyang Mountain to fight Li Zhong in a decisive battle. ”
"Yes, Castle Lord!" Everyone carried weapons, with an indomitable momentum, majestic and high-spirited, and followed Chen Chong to march towards Qiyang Mountain.
They didn't have a battle armor on them, and the boundless battle spirit turned into a war armor.
They didn't have spears in their hands, and their will to survive turned their hoes and poles into weapons.
They shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the lives of their wives and children, and all difficulties, all obstacles, and all deficiencies cannot stop their determination and courage to fight to the end.
