Liang Hongyu said after a closer look: "These people are very strange, it seems that there are two groups of people, one group is Fusang Japanese slaves, and the other group can't see the history, but they all have burns on their bodies. ”
"Burns?"
After listening to Liang Hongyu's report, Qin Hao also felt very strange, and walked over to uncover the white cloth on their bodies, and it was really as Liang Hongyu said, almost everyone had varying degrees of burns.
Looking at these injuries, Qin Hao suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, and it took a long time to say to the monkey and Langhua: "The two of you will start to divide the work from today, the monkey is responsible for investigating the situation in Dusong Pass, and Langhua is tracking down the origin of these people." ”
The monkey and the waves did not speak after receiving the order.
As the initiator of this war, Ma Kuo said after pondering for a while: "Today's war is indeed a bit strange, Lu Xing'er's goal is very clear, and the division of labor is also very clear, their purpose is to kill Qin Hao. ”
Liang Hongyu said: "Whether it is the Fusang people or those people in black, they are all well-trained killers, dead soldiers, since the first launch, there will be a second and third time, the bright ones will not work, and the dark ones will also come, we must be careful." ”
Seeing that everyone was worried about their own safety, he was quite moved in his heart, and said with a smile: "With you by my side, even if they are reincarnated, there is nothing to do, and the top priority now is how to capture Dusong Pass and join Tong Guan's army." ”
According to the exact news brought back by the spies, Tong Guan's army had arrived in Xiuzhou, and fought a battle with Fang Qifo's Northern Expeditionary Army outside Xiuzhou City.
After a series of hard battles, the soldiers and horses led by Tan Zhi have approached the city of Shezhou, and yesterday they also fought a battle with Lu Shixiang's rebel army, and they won and lost each other, according to the news sent back by the spies, Lu Shixiang is currently compressing the defense line and preparing for a decisive battle with Tan Shu in Shezhou.
According to their original plan, Qin Hao must take Dusong Pass, and then join Tong Guan's army in Hangzhou, force Fang La to Muzhou, and then join forces with Tan Zhi in Muzhou, and then surround and annihilate him.
Liang Hongyu said: "Dusong Pass is a natural risk, if we want to win Dusong Pass, we can't have a benevolent heart, Lu Xing'er has a lot of people and horses, and it's acceptable to lose one or two games, just our people, losing one is estimated to be the annihilation of the whole army." ”
Liang Hongyu's father and brother made a mistake in judgment when quelling the rebellion against Fang La, so they fell into the fate of being killed, and she herself was also used as an official prostitute, so she was more resolute than others in Fang La's ministry.
Qin Hao groaned: "After today's decisive battle, Lu Xing'er will definitely realize the gap between his rebel army and our forbidden army, so there will be no large-scale decisive battle like today, but it is still possible to send a small group of men and horses to attack and disturb." ”
Ma Kuo said: "There is not much grain on Dusong Pass, when Lu Xing'er retreated from Huzhou, he didn't take a grain of grain with him, as long as we cut off their grain route, even if he Lu Xing'er can hold his breath, the group of people and brothers under him can't sink it." ”
The people take food as the sky, in this era when even eating is a luxury, cutting off people's food is what Qin Hao likes to do the most, and it seems that there is only one way to go if he can achieve the greatest success at the lowest cost.
In the past, the population density was far less than it is now, not to mention a small place like Dusongguan, even if it is the entire Anji County, the population of the entire county is less than 100,000, just like an ordinary township now.
A small Dusongguan has 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the daily food consumption is definitely a headache, and ordinary states and counties will definitely not be able to support this huge number.
Now Huzhou has been taken over by the imperial army, Shezhou's Lu Shixiang is fighting a decisive battle with Tan Zhi's soldiers and horses, his hands, even if he raises food, he can't transport it, Muzhou as the rear of Fang La, there are also a lot of soldiers and horses stationed, and he doesn't care about himself.
Therefore, it is basically impossible to transfer grain from these two places, and as for requisitioning from the common people, then don't even think about it, if the common people have food at home and can let themselves live, they will not let go of a good life but run over to rebel.
It is impossible for Fang La to gather a million men and horses in a short period of time, and the entire Great Song Dynasty has only one million troops at its peak, and it is the strength of the whole country that is poor, even so, it is overwhelming for the imperial court.
And Fang La is only entrenched in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, and the amount of pressure on them can be imagined, with millions of troops, it is not only their advantage, but also their disadvantage, they are gathered together because of the problem of eating, and it will naturally end because of the problem of eating.
Therefore, although Fang La in history made a lot of noise, but it was also a period of coaxing and fierceness, in Qin Hao's impression, when Tong Guan was square La, there was no large-scale war at all, which can be imagined.
Qin Hao sorted out his limited historical knowledge, and then came to a conclusion that if Lu Xing'er wanted to transfer grain, from the current point of view, there was only one place, Hangzhou.
From Huzhou to Hangzhou, Dusongguan is not the only road, just the only official road, or the big road, Jiangnan is the land of fishing and rice since ancient times, the wilderness is criss-crossed, and you can detour to Hangzhou by taking the same road.
However, if the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Dusong Pass are not solved, it is very easy to cause the scene of being attacked by the enemy on the belly and back, so whether or not they can successfully capture Dusong Pass is also a prerequisite for attacking Hangzhou.
Therefore, after detouring from the side road to Dusong Pass, cutting off Lu Xing'er's grain road, this is Qin Hao's first choice, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "Brother Yang, from now on, you take three hundred cavalry to prepare three days of dry food, and after detouring to Dusong Pass, cut off the other party's grain road." ”
Qin Hao asked him to lead the cavalry, the purpose was naturally to be flexible and mobile, after all, so far, Fang La's rebel army has not established a decent cavalry, except for some major generals, those ordinary rebels have not even ridden horses.
When you see a horse, you get angry, and today's cavalry attack is a good example.
Yang Zaixing had no objection to Qin Hao's arrangement, because in his heart, he also considered the same, "Okay, I'll tell Lian Cheng now to prepare more fried noodles, dried meat and other things, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning!" ”
Qin Hao nodded and said: "I will arrange for Xiao Qianyo to send the follow-up supplements one after another, originally it was the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Zheng Demon King who guarded Dusong Pass, even if he had three months' worth of food, but now he suddenly had several times the soldiers and horses, and the food could not last for a month." ”
"I understand what you mean, don't worry, within this month, if a grain is sent from Hangzhou to Dusong Pass, just take me Yang Zaixing is question!" Yang Zaixing said very definitely that he was making a military order to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao didn't have the slightest doubt about Yang Zaixing's bold words, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back to Anji County first, I'll ask Liancheng to prepare some pork jerky for you, and set off after preparing enough dry food." ”
"Good!" Yang Zaixing replied very simply, and after answering, he and Zhang Yi led the soldiers and horses back to Anji County.
