Chapter 225: Discuss countermeasures
It's summer, and the weather is slowly getting hotter.
Although the wind blows far away in Xianbei in the far north on weekdays, it seems to have disappeared under the dazzling sun today.
Yang Jiye touched the sweat on his forehead, shook his hand, and turned his head to look behind him.
Behind him, 8,000 Zhenbei troops are encamped, here is just entered the Xianbei area, this place is deserted, except for the scorching sun, there seems to be no wind and grass, but Yang Jiye has just taken the position, the degree of handling of the matter is more careful, so he personally led people out of the village to inspect.
"Yanzhang, how long have you been following the general?"
Although Yang Jiye has reached the age of not being confused, because of his perennial martial arts practice, his body is still dragon-waisted and tiger-backed, and his voice is loud.
Yang Jiye was followed by Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong, two brothers.
"General Hui, his subordinates have only been with Yang Zhenbei for five months!"
Although Wang Yanzhang didn't know why Yang Jiye asked so much, he still replied respectfully with his fists clenched.
Wang Yantong on the side interjected: "Our brothers joined the Yellow Turban Army because they were bewitched by that horn before, since my brother took us to travel to many places in the Han Dynasty, and saw so many people suffering from war and famine, we completely woke up and went to Yang Zhenbei since then!" ”
Wang Yantong smiled embarrassedly.
Wang Yantong was right, when Yang Feng defeated the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army, Wu Yong, Wang Yanzhang, and Wang Yantong were ordered to evacuate.
Even Wu Yong once shouted to find Yang Feng's often talking, "Comrade Hou Liangping, Director of the Investigation Division of the Beijing Supreme People's Procuratorate Anti-Corruption Bureau!" ”
It wasn't until he traveled to Youzhou later and heard about the various incidents of Yang Zihan, the general of Zhenbei in Youzhou, that he took root.
"Is it May? What credit can be made? Yang Jiye said with a smile.
Suddenly, Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong looked ashamed, but the two of them didn't seem to have made any contributions!
Wu Yong, who came with the two of them, has already become one of the four commanders of the secret organization Jinyiwei, and the two of them are still on standby, without the slightest credit!
Yang Jiye smiled imperceptibly, before he came to Xianbei, he already knew all kinds of statements about this general, these two Wang brothers, martial arts are really good, and they are all praised, the only point is to demote the general! Surrender to general, after all, the two of them are modest, but Yang Zhenbei's former guard, Liu Yi, who is now trapped in the camp, and Commander Liu, seem to hate the people of the Yellow Turban Army very much!
For the two of them, they have always been a little unpopular, yin and yang.
And the original identity of the two was inferior, and they naturally didn't dare to offend the people around the biggest person in Zhenbei, and they didn't have any credit, and they were called difficult brothers by some good deeds.
"Ben will not care about what happened before you wait, but Ben will know that from now on, if you follow a certain Yang Jiye, if you perform meritorious service well, you will definitely be indispensable to the benefits of waiting!" Yang Jiye turned around, looked at the two generals who were quite respectful to him, and said sonorously.
Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong glanced at each other, and immediately arched their hands at the same time: "The subordinates will definitely go to the soup for the general, and they will not give up!" ”
Yang Jiye nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand, and pointed his right index finger to the north.
"Do you know where and where?" Yang Jiye's voice was ethereal, as if he was asking and answering himself.
Wang Yanzhang hurriedly replied carefully: "Dingxiang County? ”
"It's Dingxiang County!"
The Wang brothers suddenly glanced at each other, and a look of joy appeared in their eyes, listening to the general's tone, it seemed that they had the intention of letting the two of them attack Dingxiang County.
"Haven't you guessed yet?" Yang Jiye smiled slightly.
Suddenly, Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong were full of excitement, trembling with excitement, and hissed: "Please rest assured, the general, his subordinates will definitely slaughter the entire Dingxiang City!" ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he was stopped by Yang Jiye raising his hand!
"Stop! A certain family didn't let you wait for Tu Guang Dingxiang County! Yang Jiye smiled extremely interestingly and said softly.
After listening to this, the two of them suddenly had a puzzle in their minds, what are they doing to attack Xianbei and not slaughter the city and grab territory?
Besides, those Xianbei troops almost slaughtered the entire Ningcheng, if this revenge is not avenged, then what face does Yang Zhenbei have in this world?
Looking at the puzzled two, the corners of Yang Jiye's mouth hooked up a smile, and he laughed: "Forget it, Ben will not play dumb riddles with you!" ”
"What the general means is that Wuyouzhou is currently sparsely populated, and if you want to extradite the population from the Central Plains, it will not be possible to achieve it in a short time, and the current population of Wuyouzhou cannot meet the needs of our army's current campaign, so I have discussed a countermeasure with several adults in Shanggu County!"
"Dare to ask the general what is the countermeasure?" Wang Yantong said.
Yang Jiye turned around again, looked at Dingxiangcheng, and spit out a word without looking back, saying, "Rob!" ”
"Rob?"
What to grab?
Grab the population?
At present, Yang Feng's army is only 60,000, it's not that he can't afford to raise more troops, this year, because there are no robbers, robbers, or foreigners around Shanggu County, the people's crops, grain, etc. are rising very well.
At the time of the recent harvest, an extremely large grain tax was paid!
After these grains have been carefully calculated, the conclusions drawn may surprise the whole world!
After all, now is the era of the princes' hegemony, on weekdays, there is a small fight in three days, and a big fight in five days, and the people are miserable.
However, the food Yang Feng got could actually supply enough food for an army of 100,000 to fight for two months!
The number is unimaginable, at this time, the princes of the world, except for Dong Zhuo, who has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, who else has so many soldiers and horses?
And what to do to strengthen the troops? Nature is two words, population!
Nothing can be done without the population! I'm afraid that there are only more than 3 million people in the entire Youzhou, which also includes women, children and the elderly, and even these 3 million people are still between Liu Yu, Yang Feng, and Gongsun Zhan, Liu Yu accounts for the majority, Gongsun Zhan accounts for a small half, and Yang Feng only occupies one county!
The army of nearly 60,000 was the largest number of people who could join the army in Kamiya County, and even young men from some surrounding counties came to join the army.
I'm afraid that at present, the entire Shanggu County will not be able to send a thousand people to recruit troops into the Zhenbei Army, after all, more than half of the young men in the entire county have become the Zhenbei Army, if all of them join the army, there are old people, women and children left in the family, I am afraid that the time for Shanggu County to fall is not far away!
