Chapter 333: Good people are hard to find

; צ鿻 = [ ; �}���T�|{�%5�

Yang Zhi has already broken the capital city of Yizhou, and the process is very simple. Xue Yong and Cui Wei led a team of men and horses to pretend to be officials and soldiers, holding official documents from the Mizhou Mansion, and came to aid Yizhou. At that time, Tancheng had been lost, and after the Huainan army was defeated, Yang Zhi turned around and attacked Tancheng, but the latter could not resist, so he only fled in the wilderness, and was followed by the Liangshan army for dozens of miles, and was defeated and lost. and then returned to the capital city, counted the troops, and only one of the three stops remained.

At such a time, Mizhou sent reinforcements again, which was simply a relief in the snow.

The official document had Xiao Rang and Jin Dajian cooperating, and they did nothing to lose, and the officers at the city gate could not see the flaws, so they immediately asked someone to lower the drawbridge, open the city gate, and welcome the reinforcements. Then the ocean poured back, and the water came to pass.

Prefect's office. The lobby of the government has become a hall of justice, with chairs lined up and sitting on the ground in a semi-ring. The two public desks are side by side, the pen holder of the signature holder is removed, the dishes are piled up on the large plate, the large bowl of wine is sifted, the wine is eaten on one wall, and the discussion is discussed on the other wall. There are more than ten soldiers in the hall, waiting for the call.

After eating wine for a long time, Yang Zhi smiled and said: "Brothers, the Yizhou Mansion has been taken by us, and the Mizhou is empty, so naturally it is not a problem." In the blink of an eye, only Denglai was left in the vast land of Qilu. Xu In another month, the big leader will be the unification of Qilu, open the government and build teeth, and announce the world. When the brothers went to Liangshan Park in the past, I am afraid that they never thought that they could have today, right? Even he, Yang Zhi, didn't dare to think like this. In the earliest days, Liangshanbo was just a place for him to live.

Qin Ming smiled very happily, and his big eyes flashed with hope. Liangshanbo is just opening a house, who can say that he can't ask for mountains and rivers in the future? At that time, he will not be a traitor, but a real founding father.

"It is not difficult for the big boss to occupy Jiaodong, or even the whole of Shandong, but if you want to divide Shandong and really gain a firm foothold, the key lies in the Western Army." If Liangshan's soldiers and horses are defeated in front of the elite of the Western Army of the Imperial Court, what if Fang La revolts on time?

Suo Chao grabbed the wine bowl and drank a bowl of it, touched the wine on the side of his mouth, and said: "I am a rough person, I don't speak well, and the brothers don't like it when they hear it, so don't blame it." ”

"I just can't figure it out, how can so many brothers in this cottage be so frightened by the Western Army? I Suochao also fought in the northwest, although the Western army dared to fight and could fight, and it was much better than the ordinary officers and soldiers, but compared to the sergeants of our Liangshanbo, it was said that they were promoted by half a catty and eight taels. The personal guard battalion at the hand of the big boss also seems to me that the ladder people who have come to the gate of the Western Army should be invincible. ”

This is a big strange thing about Liang Shanbo. Suo Chao felt strange. The combat power of the guard battalion is much stronger than that of ordinary battalions. However, in terms of physique, food, and training, they are not much stronger than other battalions, but their combat effectiveness is two levels.

"But there are few copycat soldiers." Yang Zhidao. There are only 30,000 regular soldiers in Liangshanbo. The western army had 300,000.

Suo Chao's neck stiffened, "Then recruit troops." There are more than 30,000 in the reserve army, and they are all ready-made. "From Suo Chao's point of view, Liang Shanbo is a reserve army, which is no worse than the Western Army. Put on the armor, where will there be half a point of cowardice?

After all, Suo Chao's status is low. is no better than Qin Ming, who was an officer when he fought in the northwest. Suo Chao is more often in the northwest as a warrior who charges into battle, and he is only a genuine soldier when he arrives in the Daimyo's Mansion. To a certain extent, Suo Chao knows the Western Army better.

Yang Zhi's eyes were shining, he knew that Lu Qian was indeed brewing a new round of military increases. Because of the pressure of the Western Army, Lu Qian didn't think that everything would be fine with just 30,000 soldiers from the land and water. His goal was 50,000 regular troops and 30,000 reserves, the latter not just prisoners of war, but more poor people from Shandong.

The Yizhou Mansion they are currently occupying is the center of gravity. Because this place has been known for its poverty since ancient times. The majestic 800 miles of Yimeng is very grand, but there is a bird for it. Most of Yizhou is located in the Yimeng Mountains, and poverty in this area will continue until the 20th century.

Lu Qian has always believed in a truth - poor mountains and bad waters produce strong soldiers. In terms of combat effectiveness and enthusiasm for joining the army, in the 21st century, there is an irreversible difference between poor and rich areas.

In poor places, children have to send money to serve as soldiers; Where there are rich, the government promises benefits, and no one wants to join the army.

The Yimeng Mountains are where the future soldiers of Liangshanbo are located. He attaches great importance to this place, otherwise the Southern Route Army, which has more than 20,000 people, would have gathered Yang Zhi, Qin Ming, Suo Chao, Li Kui and Luan Tingyu?

Li Kui dropped the roast leg of lamb in his hand, wiped the greasy thug on his clothes, and said: "Brother Suo Chao is happy to listen to this, and I said that frustrating words without seeing it, and ruined the prestige of the cottage." ”

Li Kui is the biggest in Liangshan. Regardless of whether the word Xijun has been in and out of his ears a thousand times or ten thousand times, Li Tieniu has never seen it with his own eyes, and he can't be frightened by the description of only a monk and other generations.

Although Yang Zhi was born in Kansai, he didn't know much about the Western Army. He only knew that the officers and soldiers he had seen were like scum compared to Liang Shanbolai, and he also had a half-believing attitude towards Lu Zhishen's words. However, if you lose, you don't lose the battle, with Suo Chao's vanguard, and Li Kui's don't care, then no one can say that there is a fear of the Western Army.

When everyone drank wine and ate meat, and when they were talking, it was already past dusk, and the soldiers lit several pairs of large candles, inserted them on the standing candlesticks, and moved to the table to shine. Luan Tingyu ate a few more bowls of wine, then got up and said, "Although Yizhou City was taken by our army, there are still many routs in the city. Although there are Cui Yu brothers who lead people to patrol the city, I can't rest assured. And let me retire first. ”

Yang Zhi nodded when he heard it and said: "It's the night of the full moon, and the moonlight is set, but we must beware of chaos and trouble, and it's good for my brother to go."

I'm tired tonight. Luan Tingyu didn't dare to say goodbye, and got up to say goodbye to everyone present. Yang Zhi also felt a little drunk, and followed him down the steps and walked to the courtyard. It's the height of summer, and the two tall locust trees in front of the lobby are lush and leafy, covering the sky and the moon.

In the middle of summer, the wind at night is also muggy. But it's better than the cool in the lobby, and the people who are drunk and hot are breezy and refreshed.

Yang Zhi walked to the court, looked at the full moon above his head, it was not that he was really not that material, he must be exported, and the poem must be written in words. Today's Yizhou Mansion, which is easy to follow, is like an iron lock, blocking the retreat of the Jiaodong Mansion on land.

The land of Jiaodong is actually very large. But no matter how big the place is, there is a moment when it is eaten by Liangshanbo, because it will not grow on the Jiaodong Peninsula. Its total area is limited, and since that is the case, there is a moment when it is lost.

Because of the location of the Yimeng Mountains, it extends from the central part of Qilu to the coastal waters of Lunan. It's like a half-built Great Wall that stops in front of the Jiaodong Peninsula. No army can cross Yimeng Mountain, and if you want to enter Jiaodong through Lunan, you can only follow Yishui.

It can be said that Yang Zhi will take the Yizhou Mansion, which is equivalent to the southern land passage of the Jiaodong Peninsula. At this moment, the gentry who fled to Denglai and Denglai, all they could pray for was a mysterious and dangerous sea route.

But Lu Qian had thought of this a long time ago, didn't he? The Ruan brothers are in Dengzhou, and Li Jun and the Tong brothers are in Jiaoxi. He didn't know if these two outlets to the sea could be blocked, but Yang Zhi knew that the entire Jiaodong would soon be under the banner of Liangshanbo.

Yang Zhi had already accepted this fact, but he still had a ridiculous feeling in his heart that a grasshopper was shaking the tree. The small Liangshanbo and the Huanghuang Tianshui Dynasty ......

Lu Qian in the county government of Ye County.

The bright candle flame illuminated the account book in front of him, which was a main account of the tax payment of Ye County last year. Not to mention copper coins, grain, and cloth, what Lu Qian valued most was the gold income of more than 8,000 taels, and nearly 2,000 taels of silver.

This is the power of Zhaoyuan Gold Mine. This gold mine, which has been mined since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, is also the most famous gold capital in China in the 21st century. Although the term Zhaoyuan has not yet appeared. Since the establishment of the city in Ye County, the land of Zhaoyuan has always been under the jurisdiction of Ye County.

8,300 taels of gold and 1,950 taels of silver, according to the ratio of 2 out of 10 tariffs, that is to say, a total of 41,500 taels of gold and 9,750 taels of silver were excavated in Ye County.

But as you can tell with your toes, the actual amount of gold and silver mined must be far more than that, or even double.

The current Zhao Song is not the Zhao Song of a hundred years ago, and the maladministration brought about by the corruption of officials is shocking. There was also an account book on the official document in front of Lu Qian, which was recorded by the commissioner he sent out to record the sins of the mine owners.

There wasn't a single white bird in the crow. After all, this forest is not very big.

Lu Qian had now retreated to the next best thing, hoping to pick out a few people who were not so guilty of deserving death from the account books in front of him.

First of all, Liangshanbo needs to continue to develop the Zhaoyuan gold mine in the next few days, and secondly, Sado Island, where the little devil is located, also needs a large number of skilled people to go. He has no shortage of labor, but how to teach labor to work on time, it needs to be led by more skilled workers.

The night gradually dissipated, and a touch of fish belly white gradually appeared in the eastern sky. The dawn is brewing behind the clouds.

Lu Qian stretched his waist, moved his somewhat numb body, summoned his relatives to bring a basin of clean water, and picked up the cool water and slammed it to his face. The clean water was still very cold, even a little cold, and the cold well water dispelled the sleepiness of not sleeping all night.

"It's hard to find good people." The mine owners recorded in the account book, if one is counted as one, they should all be killed and killed.

Lu Qian rubbed his face fiercely, and made up his mind in his heart, the white gloves and black gloves were gone, and this gold mine should go into battle shirtless by himself.
