Knowing that the reinforcements had arrived, Gao Shun and the others were overjoyed, although they came a little late, but in any case, the arrival of the reinforcements allowed Wuyuan County to temporarily avoid the crisis of breaking the city. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

General Duliao is in charge of the northern armament, and Taishou are two different systems, Dong Zhuo, the Zhonglang general, is also a high-ranking official of two thousand stones, and the three big officials are gathered together, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and a three-legged situation has been formed.

Gao Shun, as the host, naturally welcomed the arrival of the two, and despite the tense war, he still arranged a banquet in the Taishou Mansion to wash the dust for him.

Dong Zhuo was most concerned about the war, and just after eating a few mouthfuls of wine and food, he asked, "Senior Envoy, how is the war situation now?" ”

Gao Shun was saddened by Dong Zhuo's words, and said truthfully: "If the two generals come a little later, I'm afraid that this Jiuyuan County will be breached." I have 50,000 troops in Wuyuan County to defend the city, and now there is one in ten steps, only less than 10,000 remnants of the defeated generals are left to support it, and the remaining three gates have now been replaced by private soldiers stationed in various families, and the danger is at stake. ”

"It's so tragic!" Dong Zhuo and General Du Liao were both people who knew the soldiers, and after hearing the words, they could imagine how tragic the battle situation was.

However, unlike Dong Zhuo's worries, General Liao raised the corners of his mouth when he heard this, this scene happened to be captured by Su Wei, and he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, could it be that General Liao and the Su family have a grudge? Or is it a grudge against Gao Shun?

Despite such speculation in his heart, he did not show it in the slightest, raised his glass and said: "Su is very grateful for the arrival of the two generals, and I salute the two generals for the upcoming war." ”

After that, he drank the wine in the cup, Dong Zhuo and the Su family were half an alliance, and they also drank the wine in the cup boldly, but General Nadu Liao politely refused: "Zhou is not strong enough to drink, although Su wine is good, now that the war is imminent, you can't be greedy for a cup, I hope you Haihan." ”

"Understand, understand." Su Wei smiled and lifted the stubble, but the loss on his face could be seen by anyone.

After the banquet, everyone did not rest, but arranged tomorrow's battle on the spot, Dong Zhuo was the most active, with 80,000 cavalry in his hands, full of confidence, threatening to go out of the city to steal the camp and win by surprise.

According to Gao Shun's idea, the enemy army is more than twice the size of the Han army, and the top priority is to defend the city, and when the enemy army runs out of food, it will inevitably retreat, and then attack in one fell swoop and take the opportunity to annihilate.

However, General Du Liao disagreed with Gao Shun's opinion, what he needed to defend the city was infantry, Dong Zhuo had no infantry under him, and there were only 10,000 remnants left in Wuyuan County, so the main force of defending the city would inevitably fall on him General Du Liao, and he had the idea of preserving his strength from the beginning, so he agreed to Dong Zhuo's proposal to steal the camp.

So that night, Dong Zhuo led 10,000 troops out of the city to steal the camp at the time of the third watch, but there were strange beasts guarding outside the enemy's camp, and before they approached, the target had been exposed, and the Xianbei cavalry took advantage of the situation to kill, although the strength was evenly matched, but Dong Zhuo led the troops back after throwing down hundreds of corpses, and returned in vain.

The stealing camp failed, and everyone could only accept Gao Shun's opinion, hold on, and wait for the enemy to run out of food and grass.

So in the next two days, the four gates of Jiuyuan County were closed, Gao Shun led 10,000 troops and private soldiers to garrison the north gate, and the remaining three gates were guarded by foot soldiers under General Du Liao.

It didn't take long for the will of the imperial court to reach Jiuyuan County, and when they heard that the emperor ordered the border Taishou to recruit troops to fight against the Xianbei army, everyone had different thoughts.

Not only Wuyuan County, but Yunzhong County, Beidi County, Dai County and other counties that were attacked by Xianbei all received such a will.

The imperial court allowed the border areas to be too guarded to recruit soldiers privately?

This right is too big, and the number of troops recruited is not up to the local Taishou to decide, and in the long run, it is bound to be a big tail, forming a situation where the border counties are divided, and I don't know which fool in the court came up with this method, and the end is misleading the country and the people.

After Dong Zhuo heard the news, he couldn't hide the envy on his face, and congratulated Gao Shun: "Congratulations to the envoy Gao, in this way, the envoy can recruit troops on a large scale and defend Jiuyuan County." ”

As for the money and food for recruiting soldiers, of course, it was solved on the spot, and the imperial court would definitely not support half a point, after Gao Shun got the insistence, he found Su Yu to discuss, now Jiuyuan County has a large army garrison, Xianbei will not be able to break through for a while, and now the Wuyuan County soldiers have suffered heavy losses, and they must re-recruit soldiers for training, and this task falls to Su Yu, the long history.

Su Wei replied when he heard this: "Peping, don't worry, this matter is handled by me with full authority, the people in our border areas are fierce, and there are many people who practice martial arts, as long as there is enough money and food, it is easy to recruit soldiers." ”

Because there were no outsiders present, Su Wei did not call Gao Shun the envoy, Gao Shun did not feel inappropriate, and after he left, Su Wei found Su An and asked him to send a message to Su Wu who stayed in Wuyuan County, in Wuyuan County, Yanmen County is the entire annex to the south of the state to set up a recruitment office, as long as it is a qualified soldier, as many as there are.

Su Wu alone was far from enough, he found all the shareholders of the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce, and asked them to use the channels of each family to set up a recruitment office, and it was necessary to obtain enough soldiers in a short time.

At this time, he sent a letter to Su Shuang, a wealthy merchant in Zhongshan, and the Zhen family, who had been working closely with the Su family, to ask the two families to help purchase leather and iron grain, mainly pig iron, and the Su family had saved a lot of grain in the past two years, and there was no shortage for the time being, but the weapons were not good, and the output of the Su family's workshop in a month could only meet the armament of five thousand soldiers, which was far from enough, so it was necessary to use external forces.

The Li family and the Su family also cooperated, but considering that Li Su is now serving under Dong Zhuo, Su Wei did not let the Li family participate in the recruitment, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings among Dong Zhuo.

I have to say that in recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued, and the displaced people are everywhere, hearing the news of recruitment, the displaced people from various states have all flocked to the state, causing great trouble to the counties and counties, and finally in desperation, the counties and counties have to join the ranks of recruitment, but the soldiers they recruited were sold to the Su family, and the Su family paid three times the price.

Although a lot of money has been consumed, but in just half a month, the recruitment of troops has been fruitful, 30,000 strong people only need a little training to be able to put into the battlefield, the situation is special, there is not enough time to train soldiers, can only be mixed with 10,000 elite soldiers after a little training in the way of the old and new, although the combat effectiveness of the county soldiers has been temporarily reduced, but it is finally useful.

And those originally disabled soldiers were not idle, some of them were arranged to train recruits after they were injured, this job allowed them to find the value of the rest of their lives, one by one put 120,000 points of energy into training, the original homeless people in their hands a little training, became a qualified soldier.

Half a month later, another 20,000 elites were recruited, and these 20,000 elites were not immediately put into the battlefield, but were personally trained by Su Yu. At the same time, recruitment offices everywhere are not idle.

The Su family has been completely exposed from the background of the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce, the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce and the Su family are prosperous, of course they know the benefits of recruitment, as long as the military power is in hand, the future harvest will be several times that of the present, and the food and clothing of these soldiers is not provided by the imperial court, although the belief of allegiance to the Su family has not been instilled, but from the beginning, these soldiers have been labeled as the Su family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the private soldiers of the Su family.

The families attached to the Su family also knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it was also an opportunity for their family to rise, so they had the money to contribute and the strength to contribute, and a month later, they actually pulled up a team of 100,000 people.

Su Yu was also taken aback by this speed, and he hurriedly sent letters to various places to stop recruiting troops, but the people from all over the country flocked to him, and finally had to recruit another 50,000 strong men to end the recruitment work.

These 50,000 strong Su Wei did not train, but first formed it and used it to reclaim the fields, over the years, the Su family hoarded a lot of land in Wuyuan County, part of it was planted with sorghum, and the other part was a lack of manpower, leaving it desolate.

Half of the land confiscated from the Cui family accounted for half of the land, the original tenants had already fled to the south because of the war, and some of the 50,000 strong people were used for reclamation, and the other part was to dig mines, the Su family had iron ore in Wuyuan County, and it was a rich mine, but due to limited manpower, and I was afraid that I would not be able to keep this interest, so I only developed some small mines around it.

Now that there are enough manpower and the will of the imperial court, Su Wei will collect 50,000 people as tenants under the pretense of public and private interests, and the excavated iron ore will be continuously sent to Wuyuan County for smelting, and the pig iron trained will mainly supply the army.

It is also because the previous accumulation is enough, otherwise the Su family will not be able to support the 100,000 troops at all, and only the tax payment in Wuyuan County will not be able to cover the Su family's income for a month. Su wine, pills and horses have brought a lot of money and materials to the Su family, and now almost half of them are used, and they are all invested in this gamble.

If you win, you will go to the next level, and if you lose, you will not lose everything, but you will also lose your vitality.

The Han army and the Xianbei army confronted each other in Jiuyuan County, and there were often battles, but the two sides came and went, and no one could help anyone, but Beidi County and Dai County were in trouble, and the remaining two Xianbei armies drove straight in, looting a lot of property, a large part of which was transported to the central Xianbei camp, the enemy army was supplied, the food was sufficient, and the two sides fell into a long-term stalemate.

Although there were frequent wars in Jiuyuan County, they finally regained some vitality, but Su Chen and his party, who were thousands of miles away, fell into a crisis of lack of food.

During this time, Guan Yu led the wolf rider to explore around, and finally figured out the situation in Danhan Mountain.

There are only 30,000 guards in the royal court, but there are more than 300,000 old and weak prisoners, and the families of the Xianbei leaders of each department are placed here, living with the families of Tanshi Huai, perhaps this is also Tanshi Huai's control of the leaders of various tribes in disguise.

Although there are not many guards, there are strange beasts guarding around the royal court, and the place where Guan Yu enters by mistake is where the nest of the strange beasts is located, and the rest of the strange beasts are of different species, and a few have three or five hundred, and the leader of these strange beasts is the giant winged tiger.

Su Chen was also taken aback when he heard about so many strange beasts for the first time, he didn't understand how these Xianbei people could control the strange beasts and use them for their own purposes?
