Chapter 132: Send a thousand soldiers first

Li Xun's letter was quickly sent out, he is now waiting for the court to give him an order, he finally found an excuse not to go back, thinking that it is impossible to send a few more people here immediately when he comes to the court, it is too late to come, this place has been beaten, how can there be any time to care about other things?

Now there are 3,000 generals in Luzhou, originally said that it was 4,000, and then after several trainings, the 1,000 people who couldn't keep up with it were eliminated, and there were a lot of 3,000 people, and now they have been trained for a few months, which is not bad, it's really a big battle, but a small battle is still no problem.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also think so, don't look at the uselessness of 3,000 people when they fight with several countries around them, but there is still no problem with that small place.

There weren't many people there, and there wasn't a big organization, let alone good weapons, not to mention 3,000 people, even in the past, a thousand people could walk sideways there, plus Li Xun's guards and the fifty-six people of the Zhang family, went over there together and bullied the locals to death.

After Li Xun sent the letter away, he began to ask Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to take him to see the training of the 3,000 people, and they were a little impatient to pass over now.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan naturally would not refuse, and the group headed towards the barracks, and sighed on the way, Luzhou, finally has its own soldiers, and the position of recording and joining the army can be manned, and there is no need to take care of many things by one person like before, which is really too unstable.

When the three of them arrived at the school field on this side of the barracks, they heard the shouts of the soldiers from a distance, which sounded pretty good, but I don't know if it could be the same as shouting when the fight really started, 1,000 of these 3,000 people were originally living on the mountain, and their formation was not very good, but if they really killed, their 1,000 people could easily clean up the 2,000 people.

"Okay, that's right, train, train hard, the food you usually eat is so good, there is a lot of money, if you don't train well, you're sorry for what you eat."

Li Xun stopped to watch, and his mouth applauded, Zhang Xiaobao didn't say anything, and Wang Juan was equally silent on the side.

The three of them watched for a while, and Li Xun urged the horse to rush over, and he didn't know what he thought, so he began to use the pre-war mobilization at this time, and said to the three thousand people how the people of Datang were attacked, and it was not honest to say that the land of Datang was occupied by others.

The three thousand people didn't care whether that place was Datang or not, but some people said that it was that, as soon as they heard that the people in the past had been beaten, they immediately stopped doing it, and they asked for their lives one after another, and they must beat those individuals.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan listened and watched from the side, and they were really speechless.

"This is a weak country without diplomacy, only when it is strong can it not be bullied by others, and a more important thing is to maintain the blood nature of the nation, as long as there is blood, then it looks a little weaker, the territory is smaller, and others dare not do it, just like the mountain people here at the beginning, who dares to provoke them when they have nothing to do, and they can't afford to pay that price."

Zhang Xiaobao has a good impression of the people in this place now, and when it comes to war, the men in the family are all ready to go out, as long as they find an excuse.

Wang Juan also thinks so, a bloodless wolf can't kill a bloody wild horse, if you want others to respect, you must have the strength and attitude to make people respect, it is useless to always beg for peace, peace is bought with blood.

"Xiaobao, Juanjuan, what's going on?" When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were still here to sigh, Old Man Zhang and Old Man Bi walked over from behind, and the two of them came after hearing that the three of them hurriedly rode to the barracks and felt that something was wrong.

As soon as Old Man Zhang arrived at the place, he saw Li Xun talking to the soldiers over there, and now it seemed a little inappropriate in the past, so he had to ask Zhang Xiaobao and the two of them.

"Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Bi are here, in fact, it's not a big deal, that's it, a place in my Datang was occupied by people who don't know where they came from, they occupied, and my Datang naturally wanted to leave them some place to live, but as a result, after treating them well, our Datang people passed, guess what? They dared to attack our people, and we both suffered a lot of damage. ”

Zhang Xiaobao is now adamant that the place is the Tang Dynasty, but no one said that it is not, it has been occupied by the time of the time, isn't it too, just like the current Tang Dynasty, how could the Central Plains be as big as it is now? It's not laid down yet.

"Is anyone really seriously injured?" Old man Bi asked with concern, he knew where the so-called Datang place was, and it seemed that he had really found it, which was really good.

Wang Juan followed beside him and said: "Grandpa Bi, I was really seriously injured, the arms of those two people were broken, and one of them was also injured on his leg, this is not the most important place, the most important thing is that the hearts of the two people are hurt the most."

The two of them are the ones who just arrived over there and first took our good things to try to exchange with their local bad things, Grandpa Bi, what do you say our things are? But the people there actually attacked our two people who went with a kind purpose.

After the two of them were beaten, they couldn't understand why kind people were always hurt, and when they dreamed at night, they were always awakened in their dreams, Grandpa Bi, the people over there were so bad, this is clearly treating our kindness as weakness.

In the case of no way, the people on our side had to be forced to fight back, but fortunately, our people had a desperate determination after being bullied, so they were repulsed, but after all, we have not managed it for many years over there, and the local people don't know us anymore, so we had to come back in disgrace, Xiaobao, isn't that what you mean? ”

"Yes, that's it, after Li Xun and Li Houye knew about this, he couldn't sit still, after all, Li Gongzi is a royal person, and he wants to protect the people under his rule, how can he let the strong enemy bully him and ignore it, this is where he is now, and he is going to find some troops to go over and let the people over there know whose territory it is, how to do it in the future, and ...... it"

"Xiaobao, juanjuan, you two don't need to say it, I know, I know it, I see, it's too unusual." Old man Bi interrupted Zhang Xiaobao's impassioned over there, and then echoed.

That's it, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are satisfied, Old Man Zhang really doesn't know what to say, just listen to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's words, you can understand that the team sent by the two people is really looking for trouble in the past, and they said that they would do business at the beginning, and they will fight when they come up.

Li Xun, this kid is not a fuel-efficient lamp, find an excuse to start here to transfer troops, the soldiers here have just reported to the past, the above should not know, after all, the soldiers here need to be trained to look like soldiers to be said to be soldiers, just sent out the news for six days.

In this way, the current Li Xun took people out to fight, and the court could not hold them accountable, after all, Li Xun took people away at the moment when the soldiers were not in the army.

Old man Zhang pulled Old Man Bi to the next place, and said to Old Man Bi: "What should I do?" See, the Zhang family has a lot of thoughts, where are they trading in the past, it is clear that they want to forcibly occupy things when they get to that place, what should the court say if they know about this matter? ”

"What court knows what to say, that's my Datang place, in my Datang place, our people have been hurt, so naturally we have to send troops, isn't Li Xun's side already prepared like this?"

Old man Bi said to Old Man Zhang, his meaning is already very clear, that is, let the people from the Tang Dynasty go over, occupy it, and make it their own place, as for what others say, it doesn't matter, the local *** will be killed when the time comes, or it will be taken to other places, and after waiting for many years, people will know that it is a piece of land in the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as Old Man Zhang heard Old Man Bi say this, he knew Old Man Bi's plan in his heart, and sighed and said: "I'm not worried about this, even if it is defeated, but when the time comes, if the Zhang family expands to other places again, will we fight one place if they expand one place?"

In that case, there won't be enough people on our side when the time comes, so we can't just hit the place and not send people to guard it, right? Do you want to send the people here? ”

"No, you can't send the people here, everyone who goes over there must be rotated within a few years, if the people are sent over, who knows if the people there still recognize the Tang Dynasty, if it is really a sudden country, it will be called the whip commander here."

As soon as the old man heard that he was sending people to other places, he immediately vetoed it, this must not be sent, especially in a stupid place, the local people didn't know anything about it, and when the people here passed, it was likely that they would fight with the local people first, and then they found that there was not much benefit, and if there was some war and other things here, the people there were likely to have to think about something else.

"Since that's the case, let's find a way in the future, the main reason is that the speed of the ship is too slow, and it will take a long time to go back and forth, and when something really happens over there, there will be no time to rush over here, no, this matter has to be told by Xiaobao and Juan Juan to their families, otherwise, even if they know the place, it will be useless."

Old man Zhang also became worried when he saw Old Man Bi, and immediately mentioned the matter of telling the Zhang family.

The two of them said a few more points, and then returned to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and the old man Zhang said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, do your family continue to look for other places after finding that island?" ”

"Somewhere else? Not for the time being, Grandpa Zhang, that place is not small, don't look at it now, but if you want to occupy it all over there, it is impossible without tens of thousands of soldiers, my family wants to take care of that place first, and the other places can't be managed, and the rice has to be eaten one bite at a time. ”

Zhang Xiaobao understood, the two of them were also afraid that at that time, their side would keep looking for new places, so that the Tang Dynasty would not have so many soldiers, even if they did, they couldn't send them, what did they send them for?

Is it to kill a few people and come back? The place is large, the population is small, and the battle line is too long, and it is easy for people to attack, so I told them some of my intentions.

Old man Zhang was temporarily relieved when he heard Zhang Xiaobao's words, but he was very curious about that place, what was it like? What kind of people look like and what kind of specialties they have, this needs to be understood first, and the most important thing is how big it is.

Glancing at Old Man Bi, Old Man Bi came out and asked, "Xiaobao, is there anything good in that place?" Is the place big? ”

"Good stuff? Yes, the people who went this time brought things when they came back, and they showed Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Bi after a while, so many of them are what we need, and I don't know how big the place is, but there are many islands between our place and that place.

As long as we reclaim that place, then the island in the middle will be ours, and we can learn from the example here in Luzhou, build a lighthouse there, and find a larger island to build a good house, and help the people who fish in the open sea. ”

Zhang Xiaobao thought about it for a while, and said in advance what he was going to mention later, but this time he didn't say it in such detail, especially in the future, he didn't tell Old Man Zhang and Old Man Bi.

"Yes, Grandpa Bi, it's good there, it seems that there is a lot of gold, gold, plus other local products, if we don't want it, we will give it to others, especially minerals, after digging, it will not appear again, what our family thinks is to use force first to let the people who let them live in our place help to work.

Waiting to dig out the mine and send it here, you can bury it and keep it for your children and grandchildren to use later, or you can take it out and use it now, so that our minerals here don't have to be touched, keep them for your children and grandchildren, and ah, they have a lot of food over there, just like Leizhou and Yazhou here.

Let them plant the local people, and after planting, they can eat it, feed the livestock, and make wine, so that our people don't have to do it, you think, they live in our place, how can they do it if they don't work for us, it's like a farmer, a farmer who doesn't work is still a farmer? ”

Wang Juan also interjected at this time and said to the two old men, that one of our places, the two old men were really speechless, what kind of person is this, adults are like this, even if the adults are like this, the two little babies are also learning to be adults, and the local people are sad now.

The two of them glanced at each other again, and this time they didn't say anything, but they understood in their hearts that the Zhang family would never give up that place, since this was the case, then wait for Li Xun to beat it there first, and then let the court send someone to guard it, just like Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's family said in Hong at the beginning, they will change people every once in a while.

"Since that's the case, then you guys will continue to stay here, and your Grandpa Zhang and I will go back and take a rest." Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, Old Man Bi said hello and left the place.

As soon as the two of them got out of the school field, they got on the carriage and asked people to hurry slowly, and they had to discuss it.

"There is gold over there, and there seem to be other things, this time the harvest is not small, but why do I always feel as if the Zhang family has known about it for a long time, look at what they are ready to do is to deal with others over there."

Old man Bi leaned in the car, finished saying this to Old Man Zhang, and then instructed the people who drove the car to go to the dock, ready to see what was there.

Old man Zhang also has the same feeling, judging from the things prepared by the Zhang family's fleet, it is indeed like that, they must have gotten the news from somewhere, but this is not right, how long has the Zhang family been here? Could it be that a certain fisherman accidentally passed by?

How is this possible, how long does it take to go back and forth, and what kind of boat does the fishermen have, they have already capsized into the water, I don't understand, I can't figure it out.

After pondering for a while, Old Man Zhang said: "I also think about it this way, but if I ask them, there is nothing they can do if they don't admit it, it seems that they can only wait a little longer, if they are familiar with more things over there, maybe they can explain something." ”

"Yes, I guess they just put on the idea of all kinds of things in that place, otherwise it wouldn't be so, and the people in Jiangnan Dongdao, when did the Zhang family become so generous, they could let them lend them the boat to do business without paying for it, and after they got here, they didn't push down the price hard, and let their boat not carry the same things.

Do you think the Zhang family wants to calculate the merchants of their Jiangnan East Road? This can't be done, there can't be chaos over there, once something happens, many places will be affected, you have to ask, there is a place for Jiangnan Dongdao businessmen at the wharf here, so let's ask together. ”

Old man Bi agreed with Old Man Zhang's statement, and also mentioned the business businessman's matter, it is nothing to change to someone else, it will make people feel that it should be so, but the Zhang family is not so simple, they can always connect many things together.

Yes, when it came together, Old Man Bi thought of this and suddenly said: "Do you say that the merchants of Jiangnan Dongdao will have anything to do with that newly discovered place, it shouldn't be easy for the Zhang family to do this, right?" ”

"Well, it makes sense, ask in the past, if you can't do it, just wait for Li Xun to send troops and see what the result is, I think the Zhang family won't hide it all the time."

After Old Man Zhang said this, he began to ask the people who were driving the car to hurry up, the more this kind of thing was known in advance, the more time there was to prepare.

Li Xun was still inciting on the school grounds, and the three thousand soldiers had already been enthusiastically boiled by what he said, clamoring one by one to teach others a lesson, and Li Xun also shouted vigorously.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan watched from the sidelines, they were really a little helpless, and at the same time they were a little curious, the two of them didn't seem to have taught Li Xun such a thing, how did he know?

Could it be that this is talent, in this way, then Li Xun should be suitable to be a general, not a rich man, and then he will be able to come in handy, or be an instructor or something, very interesting.

"It seems that Li Xun can also be cultivated into an all-rounder, look at what he said there now, yes, very good, go, go to another place for a turn, and when he comes back, it is estimated that he will be able to select a thousand people, fortunately, the fleet came back in time, otherwise it will be easy to have an accident."

Zhang Xiaobao said a few words, turned the horse and walked away, he was very glad that the time for the fleet to come back was earlier, otherwise, once the imperial court knew about the army here, and arranged for a record to join the army, then the transfer of the army would not be easy.

Now everything is in the hands of my father, no one will say anything else, even if the army is sent very often, and now this soldier has not been recognized by the imperial court, it is really interesting to say that the local people spontaneously went to fight.

Li Xun continued to incite here, and when he saw that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had left, he felt that it was almost over, and began to conduct a big competition of the whole army, as long as a thousand people passed, the people who wanted to go had to be within a thousand.

The soldiers immediately began to compare, Li Xun found someone and asked him to watch, as long as a thousand people were selected, he rode on a horse and chased Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

"Xiaobao, didn't you use that firework this time, okay, I brought it, do you want to go with me?" Li Xun chased after Zhang Xiaobao's side, turned his head and asked.

"What's going with you? You can't go, you're just a symbol, and you think about it, what if there's a danger? ”

Zhang Xiaobao heard Li Xun's words and immediately poured a basin of cold water on his head, how could this kind of thing let him go, isn't that troublesome?

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, staring at Zhang Xiaobao, probably to see if he was lying, seeing Zhang Xiaobao's serious appearance, he nodded and said, "I know, I just can't go to the quilt, right?" No, I have to go, I have to fight with my people, even if there is danger, I have to go, otherwise, I am not a royal man? ”

"Then you go by yourself, others won't stop you, but the others on my side won't go." Zhang Xiaobao saw that Li Xun was still there and insisted, so he could only use threats.

"As long as my two hundred people have passed, what if there are too many of them, okay, I won't go with me this time, but I want to stay in that place in Yazhou, and I must know the news first."

Li Xun thought about it, it is really dangerous over there, in case he hangs up, well, it is hanging, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan usually say this, if they hang up, then they will not be able to do good things for the people of their fiefdoms in the future.

"Don't worry, wait for the people who passed to occupy the place, we can pass, I and Juan Juan don't go, will we be afraid? Not worried about the unexpected? Zhang Xiaobao persuaded again, Li Xun is much better now.
