Chapter 221: New Concept War (3)

"Raise taxes, increase taxes...... Raise taxes, damn it, these bastards want to force us to death? The green tendons on Yang Dazhuang's head burst out, and he said indignantly: "Half of the money was originally fed to the tax card, and now the tax is going to be raised, so I really don't give us any way to live!" ”

War, to put it bluntly, is still fought economically, and it is still fought with national strength. Now Wang Shichong is desperately expanding the army, but the army is a gold-swallowing monster, armor requires money, swords, axes, hooks and forks, bows, crossbows, arrows, shields, war horses, everything asks for money, Wang Shichong will not print money, and there is no clan gate lord who dares to blatantly support him, and now the only way is to desperately raise taxes, eager to squeeze the stones out of oil, and scrape off the ground.

However, Wang Shichong was still short of financial resources at this time and barely supported it.

Mr. Hu sat down on the ground and sighed with a sad and angry face: "If this continues, I'm afraid that the money we dig out from the ore and sell it will not be enough to pay taxes!" ”

Yang Dazhuang roared angrily: "Those bastards, this is to pick our skin!" Since they don't give us a way to live, then ......"

Without waiting for Yang Dazhuang to finish speaking, Mr. Hu hurriedly stepped forward to cover Yang Dazhuang's mouth and said, "Forget it, cook and eat first...... Now that the weather is hot, there are wild vegetables on the mountain, and they will be able to live on it, and what is there to wait for Tang Guo and Zheng Guo to finish the battle. ”

Summoned a few young people to put these hard-won grains into storage, and spent some chestnuts and millet for a group of mothers-in-law to take them to make a delicious meal for everyone. I don't dare to think about rice and white noodles, so I can only get some coarse grains mixed with wild vegetables to fill the water. As for a few air-dried hare meat, it can be regarded as improving everyone's life.

Yang Dazhuang sat on the ground weakly, but "The prince will have a kind of call!" This idea was like a seed with magic power, quickly taking root and germinating in Yang Dazhuang's head.

However, at this time, Mr. Hu walked up to Yang Dazhuang with a bowl of coarse grain rice and said, "Da Zhuang, what do you want, eat something quickly, I have already heard your stomach cry Lak ......"

Yang Dazhuang took the bowl, but he didn't move the chopsticks.

"What's wrong? Big Strong? "Mr. Hu is very curious, Yang Dazhuang is as his name, tall and strong, more than eight feet tall, waist circumference of more than three feet, the strength is amazing, ordinary people carry a hundred pounds of weight has been difficult, but Yang Dazhuang can be three hundred pounds of big stones, lift over the head, others use more than ten pounds of sledgehammers, he uses a large size, a full fifty-six pounds, these miners do not know how many hammers to pick every day, naturally the lighter the hammer, the more labor-saving, but Yang Dazhuang uses this sledgehammer, Easily mine at least three or five times more ore than the average miner.

To be able to do it means to be able to eat. Yang Dazhuang's food is also very amazing, others eat three liters of grain a day, he is not full after eating a bucket, in fact, Yang Dazhuang never knows what it feels like to be full.

Yang Dazhuang took the chopsticks and pulled the rice indiscriminately, the chestnuts were very hard, not easy to digest, and the taste was not good, besides, the rice in these mines was directly boiled in water, and a little salt and wild vegetables were added casually, and the taste was just imaginable. However, Yang Dazhuang used less than half a pillar of incense to eat a large bowl of rice into his stomach.

Yang Dazhuang did not go to serve the meal again as usual, but put down the bowl and said: "Mr. Hu, your knowledge is great, you said, we have a hard life, when will we be a head!" ”

"When is it a ......," Mr. Hu sighed and said, "It's fast, it's fast, yes, it's going to be fast." Tang and Zheng are at war, what they are fighting for is the ownership of the Central Plains, if Li Tang wins, Li Tang will occupy Hexi, Xihe, Bashu, and Hedong, and one of the three points of the world has been divided, and the world will be unified in less than three or five years in the future! ”

"But...... What if Li Tang is defeated? Yang Dazhuang looked at Mr. Hu suspiciously: "Didn't Li Tang lose the battle?" I heard that even Li Tang's King Qin and King Qi were surrounded by the Wang family, I heard the play say that the son of Emperor Lao'er is the prince, and even the son of Emperor Li Tang Lao'er was surrounded, I watched this battle, if Li Tang wanted to win, it would be a bit hanging......"

Mr. Hu shook his head and said: "No one can say for sure, if Li Tang loses, then this battle may take more than ten years......"

"Bell Bell Bell ......"

The broken gong in the wooden shed at the top of the hill rang out rapidly. Yang Dazhuang jumped up and shouted, "What's the matter? ”

A miner on the top of the mountain shouted anxiously: "The officers and soldiers have come down from the mountain, run!" ”

"Run for what?" Although Yang Dazhuang and these people were stolen mining soil, they sold them to private kilns controlled by gate valves, so they were protected, and generally speaking, the officers and soldiers crossing the border were just extorting some money and food.

Mr. Hu's face changed drastically: "Run, run!" ”

Yang Dazhuang roared: "What are the officers and soldiers afraid of, I will deal with them, what are you running?" ”

Mr. Hu hurriedly said: "You don't know, the surname Wang is now arresting strong men everywhere, and I am afraid that we will all be arrested by them here to fill the trenches, and even one of the ten people will not be able to survive at that time!" Do you know Liu Jiaying? ”

Yang Dazhuang naturally knows Liujiaying, Liujiaying is originally a mining camp composed of a rout during Yang Xuanxian's rebellion, its leader is said to be surnamed Liu, or an eagle general, because there are knives and guns, the strength is very large, and the miners have five or six thousand strong men.

Mr. Hu said: "Seven days ago, Liujiaying was suppressed, and it is said that the men were all arrested and filled, and the women were sold!" ”

Yang Dazhuang roared: "Damn, don't let us live, fight with them!" ”

As Yang Dazhuang shouted, all the miners also picked up the guys. The miners who were mining picked up shovels and pickaxes, the healthy women who were cooking picked up kitchen knives and firewood guns, and those who didn't find a suitable guy simply picked up their flat poles and rushed to the entrance of the mine like a gust of wind. The children were still at a loss, and the old man shouted and dragged these little people who did not know the dangers of the world back to the shack, and did not allow them to go out, and the whole mining area was like a tiger breaking in, full of panic and uneasiness.

……

Liu Tong took the soldiers of the Beiwei Army, bypassed the Yanshi, and walked on the trail in the Songshan Mountains. Of course, this kind of small road, or a hillside where there is not even a road, ordinary troops cannot walk. It's just that the Beiwei Army is not an ordinary army at all, they are special forces in this era, and the Beiwei Army disguised as homeless people walked along the rugged mountain road with difficulty.

In fact, Wang Shiyun of Yanshi City did not find out at all, the Tang army had been divided into three roads, led by Luo Shixin and Zhang Shigui, along the embankment on the south bank of the Yellow River, and advanced in the direction of Luoyang, of course, this is a clear chess, more than 6,000 cavalry, it is impossible to hide the scouts of the Zheng army.

But the Beiwei army was different, their infiltration was successful, and Wang Shiyun did not find out. Liu Tong and the others four hours ago, they encountered a group of bandits and fought hard...... Then the most familiar of the bandits became their guides, and the bandits' dens became their base. Now two bandits, who are as thin as monkeys, are taking these uncles and running around the mountains and forests.

Because of the battle of Xingyang, Xunxiang was officially promoted by Chen Ying to one level and became the general of Dingyuan who was on the fifth rank, and he was only one level behind Liu Tong's General Mingwei. This level is still a non-mainstream level in the entire Tang Kingdom, but under Chen Ying, it is already a senior general, and if a meeting of the generals of the whole army is held, Xun Xiang already has the qualifications to attend the meeting.

However, Xunxiang's current motivation is real. Because he is different from before, he has a family, he not only has a family and a room, but also a daughter, although the eldest girl and the second girl are not his biological daughters, but he treats the eldest girl and the second girl as if they are gone. In this era, it has always been a high-ranking marriage, a low-level marriage, and looking for a marriage is no exception. He now attaches great importance to the title of Tang Kingdom, which is not only related to his own status and identity, the key is that with the title, his two daughters can marry into a wealthy family in the future and do not have to suffer.

If he becomes a marquis, the eldest girl is the princess of the Hou Mansion, although it is said that the door of the family is too high, and he can't climb high, but ordinary officials have the qualifications to marry and discuss relatives, maybe they can become what county order lady or Changshi lady. Now he doesn't have a knighthood, but if he is promoted to another level of honor, he can get the founding marquis of the Tang Dynasty, and the eldest girl and the second girl can also become the sonins of the founding marquis of the Tang Dynasty. Especially Erya, he dared to kill people at a young age, which made Xun Xiang very surprised, he was more satisfied with Erya, in the next few years, he decided to be cheeky to find Chen Ying to go through the back door, and send Erya to Princess Pingyang for a few years, maybe in the future he can become a feudal monarch or a famous female general.

Every time I think of this, Xunxiang can't wait to have wings on my back, and immediately fly to Luoyang and take down Luoyang City. After finally crossing a mountain, a rugged path appeared in front of them, stretching intermittently towards the depths of the mountain forest. Xun Xiang kicked on the ass of a thin monkey: "How long can I get around Gong County?" ”

The bandit wiped the blood from his face, pointed to the path and said, "Master, it's almost there, follow this path for a few more miles, and you will reach the mountain mining area." Over the mountain mining area ......"

Right here, Xun Xiang clenched his fists and spun three hundred and sixty degrees behind him. This is the tactical sign language of the Beiwei army, which means that there is a situation ahead, pay attention to concealment.

The bandit turned his head to look, and his soul was suddenly scattered.

Originally, there were hundreds of strong men behind him, but at this moment, he couldn't see any of them. There are only two bandit guides and three people left here.

The two bandits just wanted to speak, but their eyes widened, and the two bandits were so frightened that they hurriedly covered their mouths.

Liu Tong quickly made a branch camouflage with a branch, and the whole person seemed to be a moving bush.

Xun Xiang and Liu Tong's eyes touched, and the two had a tacit understanding after dealing with each other for a long time. Xunxiang is a person who is good at using his brain to fight, he partnered with Wei Chigong, with the courage of Wei Chigong and the strategy of looking for Xiang, he can actually force Li Xiuning into a desperate situation, which is obviously not a mediocre character.

Looking at the solemn look on Xunxiang's face, Liu Tong did not speak, and communicated simply with gestures.

Although Liu Tong has some military foundation and has led soldiers, he is better at dignified and upright formations, and he is better at finding the appearance of the asymmetrical combat method of the Beiwei army.

Xun Xiang said in sign language: "There is a murderous aura, someone is coming, there are quite a few of them!" ”

After the time passed, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps on the sheep intestine path, and a group of people dressed in tattered clothes who looked like homeless people ran forward, including many old and weak women and children.

This group of people is none other than Yang Dazhuang and Mr. Hu, but after the confrontation, this group of miners suffered a big loss, and they could not resist for three hours, but they were still attacked by the official army on the mining area.

Yang Dazhuang carried Mr. Hu on his back and ran forward panting.

Mr. Hu smashed Yang Dazhuang's head with his fist: "Let me down, let me down, you run by yourself, what to do to save me, let me die......"

Yang Dazhuang ignored Mr. Hu's fist, for Yang Dazhuang, Mr. Hu's fist was at best just tickling him.

A man in front of Yang Dazhuang who was cut with a bloody cut on his face suddenly kicked on a small tree, and said angrily: "I don't run away, Xiuniang fell into their hands, I have to rescue her!" ”

Yang Dazhuang turned his head and looked at the team of less than 100 people around him: "Li Haozi, you fucking give Lao Tzu back......"

"Da Zhuang, let's be brothers again in the next life!" Li Haozi roared with a hideous face: "It's better to live than to die, and it's better to die early and reincarnate early!" ”

Li Haozi lifted a chisel in his hand, turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

Yang Dazhuang gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Hu, you have a lot of knowledge, you say, what should I do now?" Is it fighting with the son of a bitch, or fighting with these bastards! ”

Mr. Hu pulled his gray goatee and muttered: "The king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as a heart; The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as enemies......"

Yang Dazhuang was dumbfounded and said, "Mr. Hu, what are you talking about?" ”

Mr. Hu continued: "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, and saints are unkind, and people are used as dogs......

Yang Dazhuang was about to go crazy: "What are you talking about......"

Yang Dazhuang didn't understand what Mr. Hu meant at all, Mr. Hu had a murderous face, and even Yang Dazhuang trembled unconsciously.

At this moment, Mr. Hu no longer seems to be the weak and unruly private school gentleman, but a general who commands Ruo Ding to reprimand Fang Xuan.

Mr. Hu suddenly pulled out a horizontal knife from Yang Dazhuang's waist, which was a horizontal knife snatched by Yang Dazhuang who killed an officer and general. Mr. Hu muttered: "The officials forced the people to rebel, and the people had to rebel, so fight with them!" ”

Yang Dazhuang finally understood this sentence.

Yang Dazhuang roared: "Mr. Hu said, let's fight with the official army!" ”

The muscles on Xunxiang's face twitched, and he and Liu Tong's eyes looked at each other, and his heart was full of unbearability. At this time, the top soldiers of the Beiwei army had already transmitted back the reconnaissance information, there were more than 800 Zheng soldiers in front, I don't know what reason to capture the mining area of these miners, this 100 people who looked like homeless people, if they wanted to rescue their families, relatives and friends from more than 800 officers and soldiers, it was simply impossible.

Zheng Jun's part is a well-equipped Zhechong Mansion system, with four regiments, including a regiment of archery, a regiment of Yue cavalry, a regiment of swords and shields and long soldiers, not to mention more than 800 Zheng Army soldiers, it is a regiment of archery, and it can easily turn these more than 100 old, weak, sick and disabled into corpses in just a pillar of incense.

Yang Dazhuang and the others left, gradually disappearing from sight.

Xun Xiang looked at Liu Tong and asked, "General Liu, what do you say we should do?" ”

"Don't make a ...... out of the ordinary" Liu Tong originally wanted to sneak into Luoyang and complete the task assigned by Chen Ying, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't speak. If the Beiwei army didn't help, then Yang Dazhuang and the others would definitely become a pile of rotten meat or stumps and broken arms.

Liu Tong asked rhetorically: "General Xun, what do you think?" ”

"The rabbit dies and the fox is sad!"

Xun Xiang also knew that the best way was to take advantage of Yang Dazhuang and them to attract the attention of Zheng officers and soldiers, and they quickly bypassed the mining area and successfully infiltrated Luoyang City.

It's just that Xunxiang suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "The eldest husband does what he does, and he doesn't do anything." ”

As he spoke, Xun Xiang handed the horizontal knife in his hand to Liu Tong and said, "Please General Liu, take care of Xun's wife......

Before Xun Xiang finished speaking, Liu Tong had already understood the meaning of Xun Xiang, and Xun Xiang was ready to help these poor miners in his own identity and let Liu Tong complete Chen Ying's task.

Liu Tong smiled lightly: "Liu is not hard-hearted, since General Xun has made a decision, then let's do it, Captain Liu is on the left wing, General Xun is on the right wing, I will lead the attack from the middle and kill by sneaking!" ”

PS: What's that, the old Cheng update has been a little slower recently. Now the average order will break 1,000 immediately, just to increase the average order, do not dare to update, the faster the update, the more the average order will fall, which is also very helpless. The monthly pass is more than 100 more, and the reward is more, and the promise remains the same!
