At the beginning of the governance of Huzhou Prefecture, Yu Wenwen, who led the troops here, was checking the terrain outside the city, and the north and east of Gwangju were South Yingzhou, the northeast was Huzhou, and the east was Nanjianzhou, and Huzhou was in the middle, which was regarded as facing the lower reaches of Huaishui and the direction of Shouchun, and it was also the starting point for the attack, so he had to come to Huzhou.

Yu Wenwen was appointed as the governor of Huangzhou (this official) as the governor of Yuzhou, and was ordered to sit in Gwangju, and it was normal for him to inspect the defense affairs in Huzhou, and then by the way, he found an opportunity to make trouble and preemptively attacked the coastal areas of Huaishui.

Gushi, located in Xincai County, Huzhou, is the state and county governance of the place, there is a broken water outside the city, from the south of the Dabie Mountain, the north flows through the Gushi and then flows into the Huaishui, its confluence entrance is called "Hukou" by the folk instead of "broken".

That is to say, according to the official records, the river flowing from south to north next to Gushi City is called "Jieshui", and the people are used to calling it "Hushui", which is also the origin of the name of Huzhou, but the official and civilian names are different, which can easily cause trouble.

There is another name that will also cause trouble, that is, Gushi, Huzhou Prefecture is the official name of the division of the Zhou State Political Region, but the local people are used to calling the old name of Gushi: Tatexian County.

In the same place, the official and the folk are not the same, the reason is that the land of the two Huai has repeatedly changed hands in the confrontation between the north and the south, and the southern and northern imperial courts have changed the names of these cities in the middle zone, and the common people have called them according to their habits.

In Xiaoliang, the city and the area where it is located is called "Tatexian County", to be Hou Jing Chaoliang, the area where Tatexian is located is the Eastern Wei Dynasty, after the Eastern Wei Dynasty became the Northern Qi Dynasty, the city was renamed Gushi, and it is this name since then.

However, it has only been more than 30 years since the founding of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Xiao Liang has controlled the place for no less than 50 years, so the local people still call the city and the area where it is located "Tatexian" according to the habit passed down from their ancestors, and call the river outside the city "Hushui".

The difference between the official and folk names of the same place and river causes a little trouble on weekdays but is not a big problem, but when it comes to war, this difference between official and civilian names will be fatal.

If Yuwenwen hadn't come to the scene to investigate, he really wouldn't have known that Gushi had two names, that the broken water and the muddy water were the same river, and that the breach and the muddy mouth were the same inlet.

In this era, marching and fighting, the map is for reference only, there is no high-tech positioning technology, and the march in the field without official roads has to rely on guides to guide the way, and if you ask the local people temporarily, you may get lost for various strange reasons.

Yu Wenwen took a turn around the side of the broken water (muddy water), asked the local officials about the water level and width of the river during the flood season, turned around and walked towards the city gate, and the entourage followed closely.

Approaching the city gate, there was a fishy wind rushing towards him, and when he looked up, there were many wooden cages lined up on the city wall above the city gate, and in the wooden cages were bloody human heads.

Familiar recipe, familiar taste, Yuwenwen was in Nanchang City, Yuzhang County, Jiangzhou last year, and he also put the heads of wealthy families from all over the city gate to deter the grass on the walls of various places, and now there is such a thing in Gushi, with the same purpose.

Yu Wenwen walked straight to the city gate, the people waiting to enter and leave the city by the city gate were already frightened by the head, seeing his group coming over, they all cowered, and couldn't help but take a few steps back and get out of the way.

For ordinary people, it is difficult to figure out what their parents look like and who their surnames are, because they do not have that qualification.

But it is impossible not to recognize the big families in their hometowns, and now there are hundreds of human heads hanging on the city gates, and there are big families and minions who have been exterminated, and their heads are recognized by the people, and the shock in the hearts of the people is not big, it is fake.

For the civilians, the big families who are high above are all over, where do they dare to fight with the thief army... If the officials and the army are opposed, they will never dare to disobey what the officials and soldiers tell them to do.

。。。。。。

In Gushi City, in the council hall of the state office, Tian Yilong, the general of the official army, was holding a meeting with the leaders of the "non-governmental dynamic organizations", of course, the term "non-governmental dynamic organizations" was just a joking of Xiyang, in fact, everyone present was the big and small dart heads of the dart lines in Huangzhou.

Tian Yilong, as one of the owners of a dart shop, was so familiar with many people present that he couldn't be more acquainted with each other, colluding with the government and the people. The beneficiary groups of the cooperation, whether they speak or listen, are full of confidence in the next transaction.

Everyone gathered around a huge sand table, in which there were various hills, rivers, and cities, although they were only models, they looked very intuitive, and there were many small flags of different colors planted in the sand table, which served as the garrison of various troops and horses, as well as the enemy and our armies.

Tian Yilong took a wooden stick as a baton, pointed on the sand table, and the dart heads of each dart line looked at it attentively, this is the route of their dart team to transport darts next, the goods are grain and grass, and the opponent is not horse bandits, bandits, and water bandits, but the enemy's army.

The war between Yuwen and Wei Chi entered the white-hot stage, and the Shannan army won successive battles, but faced many problems, the first of which was the shortage of troops and transportation capacity, and the spring ploughing was imminent, and the government could not levy the people too much, so the lack of grain and grass transportation capacity became more and more obvious.

Regarding this problem, the Huangzhou Governor's Office gave a solution, that is, to hire dart teams from various dart shops to assist the officers and soldiers in transporting grain and grass, and to support the Huangzhou Army's operations north of Dabie Mountain and on the Huaishui line.

The government actually 'buys services' from the private guilds, which is unprecedented, and only in the Huangzhou Governor's Mansion will appear, and in other places, the government has long since requisitioned a dart team to deliver grain and grass free of charge.

Since the outbreak of the war, the trade route from Xiyang in Huangzhou to Yecheng in Xiangzhou was cut off, but fortunately, the dart teams of each dart line hid quickly, and with the blessing of the cooperative families in various places, they did not suffer much loss, and the dart teams returned to Shannan safely one after another.

However, the severance of trade routes led to a sharp drop in freight traffic, and the business of the dart shop was greatly affected.

Well, now that the government spends money to hire their dart team to deliver grain and grass, although the risk is much greater, the benefits are also good - compared to the few money earned by being employed, it is more important than anything else to be able to win the praise of the King of Xiyang.

The king of Xiyang may want to use troops against Huainan, and his marching route is the grain road, which will only get longer and longer, and the official army is insufficient, so he naturally has to rely on the dart team to escort the grain and grass to supply the needs of the army in front.

At this time, Tian Yilong was introducing the current and future grain routes to the dart heads, which involved the strongholds such as counties, camps, and beacons in various states and counties, which required the darts to assess the risks they might face, and then put forward their opinions, so that the officers and troops could focus on the defense of certain vulnerable areas.

This is an unprecedented form of public-private cooperation, in which the government and the military will coordinate with the armed forces of the non-governmental guilds to maintain a stable grain route.

The dart team escorts the goods on weekdays, if the goods are robbed, it is a big deal to compensate the owner for the loss of the goods, but the grain and grass are robbed during the war, the consequences are very serious, and even directly lead to the collapse of the front-line army, so the dart line that accepts the employment to participate in the escort of grain and grass must go all out.

This dart is different from the usual dart, the enemy who attacks the dart team will be well-trained cavalry, or the powerful armed forces driven by the Wei Chi clan, and the armed forces before the dart team may not be able to withstand the opponent's attack.

Therefore, it is inevitable to increase manpower and strengthen armaments, and to add armor and weapons, each dart shop can take the approval of the government and go to the Huangzhou Ordnance Supervision to buy it at a preferential price.

Yuwen Wenwen, the governor of Huangzhou and the king of Xiyang, mobilized all the forces that could be mobilized in the Huangzhou governor's office, and almost all interest groups were tied to the carriage of the king of Xiyang.

Participating in war is a high-risk, high-reward gamble that can make a lot of money or lose everything, but for all interest groups, it is a surefire deal that is worth the gamble.

They have confidence in the leader, the King of Xiyang, because the King of Xiyang will never lose the battle!
