Chapter 135: Fight Funan first

Not only was grain distributed, but also a lot of salt and linen that had been transported in exchange for food, and a small amount of it was also shared among the people. At the same time, in every place, there was a notice ordered by Feng Daiwen and written by Li Yifu, so that people could explain to the people there, "Consult the Zhenla country, do not know the power of heaven, attack the Tang Xianglin County, and harm the people, the crime is unforgivable." Feng Daiwen, the general of Zhenxi, specially recruited personnel to do logistics in order to attack Zhenla, and all conscripts were rewarded with food and farm tools, and there were other rewards for the return of the army after victory. ”

"We want revenge, as long as we give food, we will go!" A young man from Xianglin County stood up and said loudly to the soldier.

"Revenge on us, revenge!" A group of young people can easily get emotional. They all shouted.

"Sign up over there, everyone who signs up can receive food immediately, so that the family has enough to eat, and the general will also distribute food regularly, and we will go to Zhenla immediately, there is still a lot of food there, and we have to pay for it with blood." The soldier who posted the notice said loudly.

"Blood debt and blood payment!" Enough young people shouted slogans, gritted their teeth to sign up, and led the food home.

This scene was deliberately arranged by Feng Daiwen, and the soldiers were all selected to be articulate, of course, the most important person in the crowd was indispensable, "Tuo".

"General Zhao, I want to trouble you with something." Feng Daiwen said to Zhao Chengen, who was standing behind him.

"General, please command." Zhao Chengen hugged his fists.

"We didn't know that Xianglin was attacked, mainly to buy grain, Rinan and Xianglin just experienced the war and had no surplus food, so we want to trouble the general to go to other counties to change." Feng Daiwen explained.

"Don't worry, general, you can't do it well in this hour, and the last general will come to see you." Zhao Chengen patted his chest and reassured.

"It's all the Tang people, don't be too forceful, salt, silk, porcelain and farm tools can be exchanged, gold and silver are also fine, Li Yifu will cooperate with you." Feng Daiwen was afraid that Zhao Chengen would deliberately lower the price in order to please him, and said casually.

"The last general understands that there will be no other thoughts about fair trade." Zhao Chengen naturally understands.

"Can Li join the army and understand agricultural affairs?" Feng Daiwen asked. Li Yifu was promoted to the post of secretary and member of the army after the war.

"Back to the general, although the official's family background is not bad, he also used to work in the fields." Li Yifu didn't understand why Feng Daiwen asked and replied honestly.

"That's good, there is a heavy task entrusted to you, you must do your best, if you can get something, I am afraid that people will remember you in a thousand years." Feng Daiwen explained.

Leaving a name in history is the most noble ideal of most of the ancients, Feng Daiwen's words made Li Yifu, who was only 17 years old, excited, and bent over with his fists and said: "Please also ask the general to make it clear, Yifu will work hard to complete." ”

"Haha, take it easy, it's not that serious." Feng Daiwen smiled and patted Li Yifu's shoulder, thought for a while and continued: "No place has his specialties, you need to find out that there are three aspects, the first terrain, this one can be done slowly, I will arrange someone to help you in the future." The second resource mineral deposit is also not in a hurry. The most important thing is the third point of food, the food that grows in the ground, we must find out what is not available in the Central Plains now, including vegetables and fruits. "Feng Daiwen has always had a grudge against food, there are too few things to eat in this era, whether it is fruits or vegetables, and the grain output is not much, except for the rich and noble, the people have less oil and meat, and the appetite is enough to eat, and the two years are better because of the output a little more, the sea, the grassland, the accumulation can be managed, but it is still the king to be able to produce it yourself.

Li Yifu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately understood, nodded vigorously and said, "Xia Guan understands, he must go all out." ”

……

Repaired for two days, recruited more than 18,000 young and strong, according to the prisoners confessed that this invasion is actually part of the soldiers borrowed from Funan, the largest city in Funan is called Saigon City, it takes half a month to walk, the largest city in Zhenla is not far from the sea in a place called Cham. After discussion, Feng Daiwen decided to fight Saigon City first, and then fight Champa.

Harvested all the pharmacies in the city realgar, wormwood, lime these are the necessary things in the homes of the people in the Lingnan area, the Lingnan area is humid, hot, many snakes, insects, rats and ants, the people will collect the wormwood realgar and put it in the house, and regularly smoke the house with wormwood. Many people in front of the house and behind the house will plant wormwood, wild cassia, wild cassia is also called snake extinguishing door, is the most hated plant of snakes. A lot of other medicines were also prepared, and people who knew a little about medicine also brought a lot of them, so I was relieved to set off.

Day and night, more than 20,000 people marched slowly along the path, no more than 30 miles a day. It's not that I don't want to take the big road, it's that there is no big road, only a small road between the villages, and there are constantly sentry scouts in front of it, so these soldiers and people are all Lingnan and locals, accustomed to mountain roads and climate, and they have not lost their personnel along the way.

Along the way, Feng Daiwen will arrange people to explain to them the benefits of Datang, the taxes are not high, the life is good, and he is giving them some salt, so that these people are not afraid of them, and some even lead the way for them. As for Funan, the village of Zhenla, the cottage didn't pay attention to them, and gave them a little salt, and left in the frightened eyes of those people.

Until the third day of the sixth month, when he arrived outside Saigon City, Feng Daiwen ordered the whole army to enter the woods to rest, and then convened everyone to discuss.

Feng Daiwen looked at a few young people who had obviously lost weight and said with a smile: "How is it?" What do you think. It's hard all the way, if you can't hold it, just say, the main thing to bring you here is to see, there are still many places to fight in Datang in the future, and the environment is even worse. ”

"Thank you for the general's good intentions, the last general is fine, only I didn't get used to it at the beginning, and now it's much better." Several people also understood Feng Daiwen's hard work, and thanked them together.

"A certain family doesn't want to listen to your thanks, this world is very big, and you will all have the opportunity to lead troops alone in the future, so I hope you can learn more. After all, you can't have someone to lead you every time, you have to learn to think for yourself. Feng Daiwen waved his hand.

Several people glanced at each other, and Wang Xuance, who was still the eldest, said: "The last general will talk about it first, the general has brought dozens of prisoners all the way, but he wants to cheat the city?" ”

"Yes, that's true, so how do you say you should arrange it?" Feng Daiwen nodded with satisfaction and said.

Wang Xuance thought for a while and said, "Let's arrange for someone to go into the city first to find out how many troops the enemy has and where they are stationed?" Is it the same as the captive said, and then in the deception city. After entering the city, some people were left to control the city gate and keep the retreat route, while the others went straight to the palace and attacked it as quickly as possible to force it to surrender. ”

"Okay, think carefully, real numbers are rare, if you don't win, you will be invincible if you control the city gate first." Feng Daiwen sighed with a good sigh.

"But we must be clear about our strategic purpose, because they have violated the Tang Dynasty, so we must punish them, food, property is what they must compensate, no one can kill more, after all, even if the Tang Dynasty is defeated, there will not be so many people to occupy it." Feng Daiwen continued.

"The Admiral understands! If you kill too much, you will become a life-and-death enemy, and if you kill a little less, the Tang Dynasty will have more people to occupy it, and you will be able to have more labor. Wang Xuance suddenly realized.
