After listening to Li Rumei's story, Li Mi felt from the bottom of his heart that Yang Zhan's character was not good, and he forgot justice in order to repay his personal kindness, which was really not a gentleman's doing.

However, Yang Zhan asked the guards not to call the tribesmen Tartars, which made Li Mi change his mind a lot.

Nuer Hachi has not yet announced to the world, has not openly raised the flag, he still accepts the reward of the Ming court, as early as five or six years ago, he also personally went to Beijing to worship His Majesty the emperor.

Therefore, he is still the commander of Jianzhou Wei, and he is still an official of the imperial court, even if it is a restraint policy, but the people of these tribes are still the border people of the Ming Dynasty.

Just as Li Chengliang is reluctant to use force, he must wait until Nuer Hachi makes the first move.

The border people and the barbarians may not be far apart in terms of lifestyle and survival wisdom, but nominally they are far apart, the barbarian Tartars, that is, they are foreigners, outsiders, but the border people are still people in the final analysis.

Whether it is Yang Zhan or Li Chengliang, no matter what personal moral defects they have, but in the face of the righteousness of the family and country, after all, they maintain the final limit, even if it is just a false name, these border people have long been unrestricted by the imperial court, but they must fight to the end, because everything is justified.

The guard got Yang Zhan's advice, and after not going out for long, he returned and reported to Yang Zhanyu: "General, it has been investigated clearly, Nuer Hachi took advantage of the wind and snow to raid the city of the Jurchen Varkha Department in the East China Sea, and these merchants and refugees can only take refuge in Liubao......

When Yang Zhan heard this, he also turned his head to look at Li Rumei, who sighed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Nu'er Hachi's hand is really long...... This is to let go even the savage Jurchens......"

This so-called savage Jurchen is actually the barbarian Jurchen in the extreme east, when the four tribes of Hulun have been unified, Nuer Hachi established the Jurchen Alliance, and the Ussuri River basin and the bitter cold land in the middle and lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River, the Jurchens there are not often tributes to the Ming because they are too far away, so they are called savage Jurchens.

In addition to weakening the strength of Ulla, who had never surrendered, Nuerhachi's attack on the Varkha tribe was to open up this road and prepare for the further conquest of the savage Jurchens!

The Varkha tribe already belongs to the Jurchen region of the East China Sea, and is actually a part of the savage Jurchens, but they are relatively close to the Jurchen Alliance, and they are not as barbaric as they imagined.

"Are you sure they're all refugees?" Yang Zhan is still not at ease in the end, but these more than 300 refugees have more than 300 lives, the elderly, the weak, women and children, if they are not allowed to enter Kuandian Fort to hide, I am afraid that they will freeze to death outside!

"This ...... Looks like it does...... But...... It's hard to protect ......" The guard didn't dare to talk to the fullest, and he was also hesitant for a while.

Yang Zhan asked Li Mi, "What does the lord think?" ”

Li Mi looked at Li Rumei, and saw that Li Rumei nodded, so he said to Yang Zhan: "Let them abandon all iron tools and equipment, and after entering the fort city, they can only rest in the place encircled by the defenders, and they must not light a fire, and send people to watch them closely." ”

If it is an ordinary season, it will not be so troublesome, the six forts of Kuandian were originally open to do business, livestock and fur goods, etc., they all come and go freely, and the six forts rely on collecting taxes, and they also make a lot of money, where will they be so vigilant against these people.

It's just that now Nuer Hachi is on a campaign everywhere, and he doesn't know when he will raise the banner of rebellion, and he is already eyeing the six forts of Kuandian, and how dare the defenders relax their vigilance.

Li Mi first came to take into account the life and death of these people, because he had personally experienced how terrible it was to endure in the wind and snow, and secondly, he also wanted to ask these people about the whereabouts of Zhang Jiao and Zhou Yu.

Yang Zhan heard that Li Mi arranged this, and he also felt that it was appropriate, after all, he was the guard, and Li Mi and Li Rumei were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Six Castles.

It's just that he is very clear about Li Mi and Li Rumei's tasks, since they want to go deep into the Jurchen hinterland, then there is something about the Jurchen tribe, and Yang Zhan is also willing to provide all the information.

Just like at this time, after Li Mi suggested this, Yang Zhan said to the guard: "Can you hear clearly?" Just do what the lord wants. ”

"Yes!"

"In addition, pick a few shrewd principals from among these people, and the official has something to interrogate clearly."

"Yes!"

Li Mi naturally knew what Yang Zhan meant, this Yang Zhan was really capable, and his eyesight was also extremely good, so he could comprehend Li Mi's intentions so quickly.

It's just that Li Mi also knows very well that there must be Nuer Hachi's spies and meticulous work among these refugees, but the defenders take the initiative to look for them, and these people will definitely hide, so they won't get the information they want.

"Lord Yang, I think it's better to let my people do it themselves...... Adults just need to do it conveniently. ”

Yang Zhan was a little embarrassed, and said to Li Mi: "The adult's camp is a guest, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do it, so let the brothers do it......"

Li Mi shook his head resolutely and said to Yang Zhan: "No, let me do this thing." ”

In fact, Li Mi has two concerns, as he said earlier, if the defenders come to make a move, it will inevitably startle the snakes and arouse the vigilance of those meticulous work and spies.

Second, although the defenders are strong, they are not sensitive, and those who can be sent as spies or meticulous work must be masters, how can ordinary sergeants pick them out?

The population guarding the tomb is unspeakable, and the number of people is too large, and Li Mi doesn't want to mobilize the people, and the people who really want to be sent to do things are actually the thirty-nine brothers.

The darkness was strong, but it gave the brethren a keen eye for the light, and they were all masters at finding out the pests in the refugees, better than the defenders and the mausoleum keepers.

Seeing this, Yang Zhan couldn't say anything, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, but the official should accompany him to take a look......

Li Mi didn't say much, after all, they were indeed passers-by, even if they belonged to Li Chengliang's troops, but the host and guest were different, they didn't have this power, and Yang Zhan was present, which was appropriate.

Yang Zhan first asked the guards to go down to receive and settle those refugees, but he followed Li Mi to the camp where the big spotted ghost pomfret was stationed.

When Li Mi called out all the thirty-nine brothers, Yang Zhan's eyes were also shining, he had been here in Liubao for a long time, and he had seen a lot of strongmen and bandits around the borderlands, but he had never seen such a bearing of the thirty-nine brothers, how could he not be secretly surprised?

Li Mi did not hesitate, and instructed the many brothers: "In a while, in the name of searching for weapons, you will go in and make a fuss, and the women are not allowed to let it go, but try to go too far and provoke the rats that are hiding in them, and you will not have to look for them one by one." ”

Yang Zhan finally understood why Li Mi insisted on not letting the defenders move.

Although the border army is like bandits, and they often do some out-of-the-ordinary things, but in the end, it is the "teacher of benevolence and righteousness" of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how ruthless they are, they will not do anything to the old and weak women and children.

However, Li Mi needs to do everything possible to bully, which will inevitably damage the majesty and reputation of the defenders of Liubao, and it is no wonder that Li Mi wants to do it himself, which is also cherishing the feathers of Yang Zhan and the border army.

Yang Zhan was also sighing in his heart, no wonder Li Mi was already a count with Li Chengliang at a young age, even if he had obvious contempt for Yang Zhan, but when he really did things, he knew how to protect the reputation of Yang Zhan and the border army.

Put aside emotional factors such as personal likes and dislikes and consider the overall situation, this is the person who really does big things!

What kind of character is the thirty-nine ghost soldier pill, and how can he be a soft-hearted person, after receiving Li Mi's orders, he took off his military uniform and followed Li Mi to the camp where the refugees were temporarily settled.

This camp is under the root of the city, and the wall is seven or eight meters high, which is enough to withstand the wind and snow, but the noise and shouting of these people also drown out the sound of the wind and snow.

The defenders were also a little scrambling, apparently in a hurry to receive these refugees, and were beaten suddenly, unable to maintain order for a while.

These refugees are full of words, saying that they are all border people, and they want to go in to eat, drink, and keep warm, etc., they are all strong people, and they will not make noise if they can do it, and there are many cases of pushing and shoving, and many defenders are even squeezed on the ground with helmets, and they don't know which one dares to pick them up, set up a fire, and use their helmets to boil snow water.

Yang Zhan's face was also extremely ugly, and he immediately brought the principal lieutenant over and scolded him: "Did the official say that he was not allowed to make a fire, did he think that the official had no temper?" ”

The captain's face also changed greatly, and he complained to Yang Zhan: "General, the brothers can't control it......

Yang Zhan asked with a grim face, "Can't take care of it?" If the people here harbor evil intentions and take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, you can't control it, and if you are beaten to death and trampled to death, it will affect the entire fortress city, you don't know what kind of crime you should be guilty of! ”

The lieutenant was also shocked, and hurriedly went to call for manpower, but Yang Zhan shouted: "Where are you going!" Since you can't take care of it, let the lord take care of it for you! ”

The captain also had a bitter face, and said in his heart that our brothers didn't all allocate too many manpower to settle the lord's big spotted ghost pomfret camp, so there were not enough manpower to settle the refugees, the people are also you, and the ghosts are also you, it is really a level of official college to crush people!

However, he was only full of complaints, but he didn't dare to have any displeasure on his face, Li Mi was a count like Li Chengliang!

Li Mi didn't care about all this, but glanced at the brothers, and the thirty-nine brothers crashed into it like hungry wolves, kicked over the belongings, searched everywhere, and spoke viciously to those women.

These border people are already strong, whether they are Han merchants or tribal warriors, they are all full of blood, how can they stand such bullying!

"If these officers and soldiers don't treat us as human beings, the brothers don't have to worry about it!"

Someone shouted like this, and someone immediately responded, and the two sides started to fight, and the camp rioted instantly, and it was even more chaotic!

The lieutenant looked full of astonishment, and said in his heart that the lord helped to manage it, is this the management method?

Where is this help, it is clearly a troublemaker!

It's just that Yang Zhan's face is expressionless, and Li Mi also turns a blind eye, and he, a little lieutenant, is not easy to speak, so he can only watch Li Mi's people knock those who resist to the ground, not only did not have any restraint, but it was even more excessive!

However, Li Mi's people did have a good idea, and after a while, the empty space of the camp was full of all kinds of hidden iron weapons and blades, and the captain's face was also red and white.

Because Yang Zhan had already ordered that it must be strictly investigated, and the refugees must not be allowed to bring in iron weapons and blades.

But it was too cold outside the city gate, if they were checked one by one, the refugees were afraid that they would freeze to death, and the brothers were also hard, seeing that these refugees were all miserable, the inspection of the defenders was also embarrassed, who knew that so many private jobs were really brought in!

Li Mi just watched coldly, he didn't seem to be too interested in these iron tools and blades, his eyes kept following the thirty-nine ghost soldier pills, observing every border man or tribal barbarian who dared to do it, as if he was looking for something, and even had a little expectation in his eyes!
