On the road from Hejian Fu to Cangzhou, the wind was cold and the snow was heavy.

In such bad weather, pedestrians are still in a hurry on the thick snow on the official road, shoulder to shoulder, and there is no end in sight.

These were originally bald party members, but at this time, short black hair slowly grew on their heads, and thick knots connected everyone.

Even these men who grew up on horseback, even if they were these men who galloped with eagles, they may have never traveled such a far, and perhaps they have really seen the vastness of the world for the first time.

The iron-armored man on horseback didn't hold a blade, even his hands tied with strips of cloth were rubbed repeatedly in front of him, but he still couldn't feel a little warmth.

"Damn, if it weren't for the kindness of the father-in-law, Lao Tzu really wanted to bury all these people on the spot." The man scolded and scolded, and suddenly he couldn't get angry, so he took out the horsewhip from his armpit and leaned over to whip it.

Pumping a few nearby party men dodged again and again, and the country was ruined, which could only bring people a kind of numbness, so numb that they could hardly feel the pain caused by the whip.

In the north of the Great Song Dynasty, from east to west, there are teams of party members along the road, and the first to reach the east are strong men, and then the old and weak women and children, migrate in winter, lack of food and clothing, and the road is full of corpses that no one cleans up.

The people in the villages along the way, in a few days, will organize their families to go to the official road to collect the corpses of these party members, dig a soil pit and bury them simply, because they don't want to see rotting corpses along the road in the spring of the next year.

Above the Yellow River, thousands of miles of waterways, there are countless floating corpses. Where the water is fast, countless corpses continue to swim downstream with the waves, and where the water flow is slow, the corpses freeze into ice with the water, and the ice corpses are still open on the water, lifelike.

The strategy of attacking people, this term was not invented by Zheng Zhi, but it was implemented extremely thoroughly when the Western Xia destroyed the country. Those men of the Western Army who were still in the territory of Western Xia, with the hatred and indifference of several generations of people, did what kind of tragic things were expected, but they were unreasonable.

Even Liu Zhengyan looked at the endless captives, and he didn't have much respect for life, and he often complained in his mouth: "If Zheng Xianggong didn't want these people, it would be better to kill them all." ”

It was also this errand of escorting the captives thousands of miles away, which was too troublesome, and even more difficult in the ice and snow.

The people of Qin Feng and Xihe Lanhuang have made a fortune, countless cattle and sheep, and every household can buy a herd with very little money. Of course, it also brought a lot of troubles to the people of Qin Feng and Xihe Lanhuang, that is, there were so many livestock, but the forage was not enough.

Thinking about it, this is also a strategy with Liu Zhengyan and others, the law of immigration, naturally cannot be too tough, every surname has a military man, and tough immigration will only bring serious consequences. If a family has dozens of sheep, many people will take the initiative to take these cattle and sheep north to find rations for the family's most important property.

Yumen Pass and Yangguan have become Han checkpoints again, and Liu Zhengyan is also planning to start construction in the spring and re-establish the checkpoints, these checkpoints have high walls, just to re-isolate the Han people from those Hui people, grassland barbarians, and Tubo tribes.

The Han people are not evil, nor are they really so kind, when the Han and Tang dynasties were strong. Outside the Yumen Pass, countless Han knights beat horses out of the pass, the desert and the grassland, the Gobi and the poplar forest, the cattle and sheep brought back were everywhere, and the one left outside was also a cold corpse.

In a place where there is no moral bondage, the dividends brought by plunder are really something that human nature cannot refuse.

This principle has lasted for thousands of years, and has continued to the so-called modern civilization in later generations, and the competition between people has never changed although the word plunder can no longer be described, but the essence of plundering has never changed.

Zheng Zhi finally arrived at Hejian Mansion when the snow was falling, and Huang Qianshan, the prefect of Hejian, personally stood in the heavy snow to greet him, as if the money that Zheng Zhi had robbed him of in front of his head was no longer important, and he couldn't remember the humiliation. I only remember that this Zheng Xianggong is now the most powerful person in Hebei Lianglu and his top boss.

Those who know the times are Junjie, this sentence is really good, and Huang Qianshan has done an excellent job. This future powerful minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, the most powerful minister of the Southern Song Dynasty after Qin Hui, is obviously extremely knowledgeable about current affairs.

The roads were full of captives heading east, and the intersection of the north-south and east-west avenues outside the city had been blocked. Two or three million party members, with countless casualties, most of them were on their way to Cangzhou.

At this time, Zheng Zhicai suddenly remembered that this matter was not well considered, where is there a place to put so many people in Cangzhou, even if there are only more than one million people in Cangzhou in the end, Cangzhou has nowhere to place these people.

The long-distance migration in the winter season actually has a screening effect, and the old and weak will not be able to complete this long journey without food and clothing, and most of the people who can survive are young people who are in good health.

Most of the soldiers at the intersection shook their heads and walked forward with the horses, escorting them all the way for thousands of miles, and these soldiers already knew how to make themselves less cold, and most of them shrank their bodies and wrapped their hands and necks tightly.

But when they heard a few fast horses galloping to report, knowing that Zheng Xianggong was about to arrive at the intersection, these men all shook their spirits, and the frozen spears were also pinched in their hands, and they shouted loudly, driving the party members blocking the intersection back and forth, just to make way for Zheng Xianggong, who came over immediately.

"Xianggong is here, hurry up!" The scouts who came out of the army rushed back and forth, shouting incessantly, thinking that they could not let their own ministers wait here.

The escorted soldier was even more anxious, the horsewhip was no longer enough, and the spear in his hand hit directly into the crowd.

After the crowded official road intersection was finally cleared, the iron armor everywhere was still flying back and forth, shouting wildly: "Kneel, kneel!" ”

The Chinese dialect is obviously incomprehensible to these party members, but the blow of the spear can obviously replace the words, so that these people know what kind of action is correct.

After all the party members knelt on the ground, these soldiers all descended from their horses and quietly waited for the arrival of Zheng Xianggong not far away.

Zheng Xianggong naturally came, accompanied by thousands of knights and thousands of foot soldiers.

Seeing the party members all over the ground, and seeing the soldiers who saw each other on one knee left and right, Zheng Zhi waved his hand to signal everyone to get up.

Zheng Zhi finally stopped his horse steps here and shouted, "Wu Xuexue! ”

Wu Yong hurriedly stepped forward: "The student is here!" ”

"Later, after entering the camp, I immediately wrote to Cangzhou, asking the Ruan brothers to gather all the big ships on the wharf, and the big ships going south were not allowed to leave when they came back, and they would have to go to Cangzhou to arrange them in a few days." Zheng Zhi opened his mouth and commanded, also solving the problem of the placement of these prisoners.

More than a million people, not too much, not too little. The island in the sea is a place that Zheng Zhi has long thought of relocating, but he has not yet prepared for it. There are also large islands in the Bohai Sea, such as Juehua Island, but Juehua Island is too close to Liao, and now it should be said that it is too close to Jin, and it is not safe, and these party members can land across the narrow strait.

Tamna Island is the place that Zheng Zhi thought before, Tamna is the Jeju Island of South Korea in the future, Jeju Island is big enough, big enough for millions of people to live, and there are not many indigenous people on the island, and there is no shortage of grass and trees, so it is best to settle these party members.

Although Tamna belonged to the Goryeo Kingdom at this time, Zheng Zhi never thought about this problem at all.

Most of these party women and children are housed on the island, and it is the best way to select the beautiful young ones among them to be rewarded to the party men who have made meritorious contributions. As for those captured party soldiers and soldiers, it is natural that they must be strictly controlled. There are two clans, Xiangli and Mi, and it is much easier to control tens of thousands of party men.

After Zheng Zhi finished speaking, he glanced left and right a few times, and then went forward again.

Further on, Huang Qianshan and all the officials were waiting on the side of the road, also shivering from the cold.

"Welcome Zheng Xianggong's triumphant return!" The smile on Huang Qianshan's face was that Zheng Zhi's horse had not stopped steadily, and Huang Qianshan had already stepped forward and surrendered his hand.

"Governor Huang has worked hard, and the weather is cold and frozen here, and there is hard work." Zheng Zhi was also polite, reaching out not to hit the smiling person, not to mention that Zheng Zhi also took all of Huang Qianshan's net worth and property.

"Thank you for your love, it's not hard for the lower officials to suffer some wind and snow, and it's the real hard work for the prince to hit the party thousands of miles away." Huang Qianshan smiled again. Huang Qianshan was able to curry favor like this, obviously trying to mend the relationship with Zheng Zhi, the top boss.

Zheng Zhi smiled and didn't say much, but said: "Governor Huang quickly goes up to the frame, enters the camp together, and toasts in the camp tonight." ”

"Excellent, excellent, thank you." The smile on Huang Qianshan's face was even worse, and he only felt that this Zheng Xianggong was not the cold face he knew at the beginning.

Everyone entered the camp, in the big tent, dozens of generals gathered, each stepped forward to meet Daohe, the flattery of these generals showed a lot of sincerity, Zheng Zhi's battle, the status of these military men in the hearts of these soldiers has reached the top.

If Zheng Zhi can defeat the Liao State again, he will inevitably be worshiped as a god by these generals.

(Lao Zhu reviews a mistake, reading less always has to make mistakes.) The word "former and backward gong" was used many times in the previous article, and I remember it twice, once to describe the attitude of the courtiers towards the emperor, and once to describe Li Er's attitude towards Zheng Zhi.

The usage in both places is wrong, the meaning of the front and back is arrogant and rude at the beginning, for the sake of the two, and later it becomes respectful. It is mostly used to describe a person's repetitive attitude. Lao Zhu doesn't seek to understand when he reads, and he has always thought that this word is to describe the meaning of being respectful before and after, and Lao Zhu is inaccurate, apologize! Take a lesson from you. ）
