Chapter 905: Linzhi 5
Mozhou, Hebei, under the banner of the newly erected Criminal State Army.
A battle that was not small but not fierce had just ended, and only the figures who were chasing the north were all over the ground.
"These Hebei rebels are too bad......"
Chen Yuan, who had already hung up his official military position, complained to the newly arrived Tuntian Lieutenant Wu Yong
"As soon as the guns are released, they scatter, and when the cannon is fired, they will not be able to escape......"
"It's time-consuming and troublesome to get people arrested......"
Although he said that, it was difficult to hide his expected confidence and self-confidence.
It's just that by chance, I want to be these grizzled and dejected captives, and I vaguely seem to have returned to the years when I was surrounded and intercepted by the officials and soldiers, and I was displaced and turned to the road, but the role reversal has fallen.
"This aftermath is still a lot of reliance on Wu Tun......
"It's just a duty......
Wu Yong nodded and asked again.
"After clearing most of this Mozhou, what should I do next......
"What do you say about Yidu......?"
Chen Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Except for Jizhou, don't touch it easily,......"
"Other places can do what they can to get into such a ......"
"At least as Yingzhou, Xinzhou, Dingzhou, and Mengzhou around Jizhou...... All of them will sweep the past."
"According to the deployment from above, we have to clear out a buffer area outside Cangzhou to bring ......"
"It's best to drive away the local population along the way and enter Jizhou to eat...... That would be even better."
At the same time, in the midst of the encirclement and interception, there were still sporadic gunshots, of course, not to kill and injure the defeated rebels, but to drive and frighten the herdsmen like sheep.
Therefore, these defeated soldiers who ran for their lives only had two reactions when they heard the sound of the guns, either they continued to accelerate desperately like frightened rabbits, or they fell to the ground in fright, and it was difficult to get up again in a short time.
And Meng Bangjie, the head of the cavalry subordinate to Cangzhou, was also controlling the rhythm of the pursuit while restraining and greeting his subordinates.
"Be careful, try to avoid unnecessary kills, and catch more live ......"
"The labor to dredge the local Cao River has to fall on them......
"Even if it's a minor injury, you have to think of something to bring it back, so you can work."
"Whether this long reed field can become Cangzhou depends on our ability......
And in the direction behind him,
Strings of prisoners tied up with ropes were being escorted back to Cangzhou by armed men who had gathered in the rear.
They are the easiest to equip themselves with according to the northern cavalry, and even as long as they change their banners, they can be thrown into the chaotic battle in this Hebei place. ……
In Huaidong, I also soaked in the huge wooden soup bucket, feeling the hot soup floating with dogwood and other medicinal herbs, stretching the heat into the skin and texture, and then converging and surging into a few big sneezes between the mouth and nose.
I have just returned from the inspection of the river embankment, and the heavy rain for several days has caused the Jishui, Surabaya, Yishui, Jiaoshui, and Mushui in Huaidong to flood one after another.
Therefore, the soldiers and civilians in all parts of the river, in the garrison and the battalion, gathered on the embankment and waited solemnly, prepared a large number of sacks, ropes, large and small logs, and even a dozen large and small river boats, in order to cope with the possible leisure.
As a vassal of one side, even if I can't stick to them or play a substantial role, I still have to show my face publicly in the corresponding high-risk areas to show my determination to be with them.
As a result, although there is a new type of rubber rain gear, it seems that there is a bit too much rain rushing back and forth, and it still inevitably produces some sequelae similar to cold and cold.
Fortunately, I am not lonely, and the three of my peers who have been drenched in the rain have also been pulled in by me with a slick face on the grounds that I can't waste such a large bucket of soup to fulfill some personal service obligations.
So the normal close wiping turned into a rippling water up and down, and then it became a warm-up exercise that splashed and made people feel happy.
Then, Mei Mei, who brought in clean clothes by hand, could not get out of my poisonous hand after all, and after being wet by the water splash near me, she was also half tricked into the soup bucket by me, and became a part of the rippling water splash and the tumbling and gurgling body.
After this sweaty warm-up exercise, the heaviness and congestion in my body finally disappeared. I wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase after it, and do another round against the two beautiful bodies that have turned white.
It's a pity that the sound of the emergency report outside also sounded appropriately.
"Lord...... Pre-military emergency report ......"
However, the troops sent by Du Qiandao finally set off and returned, but when they reached the territory of Zhengzhou, someone chased after them and reported an emergency.
At this time, the south of the city, which was occupied by the Central Route Army, once again underwent new changes. However, the garrison in the city began to break out of the epidemic.
The first to suffer was the cattle and horses, and then the wounded, and then they were ignored as normal battle damage that was not adapted to the water and soil, and when a large number of dead people appeared, it was too late and most of them could not be treated.
As the commander of the Northern Army, Zhang Shuye, before retreating to the north of the city, his last hand was to use rotting livestock carcasses to pollute most of the water sources in the south of the city.
Of course, this method was accumulated and brewed after a period of time, but it caught the Liang army in the south of the city by surprise, and had to forcibly stop most of the offensive after breaking the east and west sides of the north of the city, and turned to internal quarantine and sanitation clean-up operations in the name of resting on the spot.
However, it is far more than these front-line military horses that are affected, at least compared to the civilian population, the control and security of the army is still guaranteed.
The problem is that the pandemic has also begun to have a particularly serious effect as it has spread to the places along the route that are responsible for providing the forward transport manpower.
The regimes in these newly occupied areas were still hastily created, and even if some officials were appointed to assist the army, they did not exercise sufficient control and enforcement, and almost an entire village and village were killed as soon as they broke out.
Then there was the spread of panic in the areas outside the city and the fact that entire villages and villages began to flee.
And the large number of deaths and exodus from the people in the rear inevitably affected the supply of military supplies in the frontline battles, which was the consumption of two or three hundred thousand troops and a larger number of mules, horses, cattle and donkeys.
In order to maintain this supply line with great losses and a long journey, the base camp in Jiangning and Xingzai have done their best.
Therefore, after the global linkage and possibility deduction on the big sand table, I also had some kind of unpleasant premonitions and guesses.
I'm afraid that this time Huaidong will inevitably bleed heavily.
