Yang Yu rubbed his temples, he didn't expect the three major members of Mengcheng County to drink so much, last night Yang Yu repeatedly excused himself, but he still drank a little too much, and he had a headache at this time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Immediately, Yang Yu hurriedly looked at the field, where the county soldiers were lined up, practicing for this newly arrived general who was drinking, and it would be too much to say if he was sluggish.

Yang Yu already knew from Yan Taishou that Mengcheng County had more than 2,000 county soldiers, and about 2,000 more could be summoned in case of emergency.

When Yang Yu first saw this Yan Taishou, he felt that this person was likely to be addicted to wine, and his impression was not very good, but from the conversation between last night and this morning, he found that Yan Taishou was in a very eager mood to suppress the bandits.

Moreover, Yan Taishou publicly stated that he would fully cooperate with Yang Yu in all military operations, and said to Yang Yu that he should only ask for materials from Tongshou Wang Baozhi, and ask Dongyang for military affairs. made Yang Yu feel ashamed, he didn't expect that this Yan Taishou was still good, and he also taught Wang Dazheng to be tolerant, but he first had a prejudice against people.

Yang Yu thinks about it, even if Yan Taishou is really good at wine, it is at most a loss of personal morality, as long as the government affairs are clear, he can be regarded as a good official. Remembering that he still had Dolan with him, he couldn't help but sweep away Yan Taishou's bad image.

Yang Yu carefully watched the drill of the county soldiers under the stage, and every move and style seemed to be the same, but Yang Yu always felt that something was wrong and something was missing. Yang Yu frowned, thought about it carefully, and couldn't help but suddenly realize.

Less murderous. The county soldiers don't say that they are compared with the border army, but compared with the team they have pulled up, and the appearance or temperament they show lacks the kind of murderous spirit of indomitable and life-and-death.

In Liuguanyi, the newly recruited untrained people also looked stronger than these county soldiers. If the border army looks like wolves, these county soldiers look more like a flock of sheep at this time, although they are in a neat formation.

At this time, it was Wang Baozhi and Jun Cheng Xiang Dongyang who accompanied Yang Yu, Wang Baozhi saw Yang Yu frowning, and asked: "Does the general think that the strength of the county soldiers is far weaker than the border army?" ”

Yang Yu felt that it was a bit hurtful to say it directly, so he said as tactfully as possible: "I think it's because the border army has been trained for a long time, and it looks better than the spirit of the county soldiers." ”

Xiang Dongyang said disdainfully: "It's not a matter of training at all, no matter how much these grandsons train, it's useless." How fierce the people over there are in northern Xinjiang, they will start fighting if they don't agree with each other, and the people here are not of any species, they are honest. ”

Yang Yu asked curiously, "I don't know where Lord Xiang's house is?" ”

Xiang Dongyang rolled his eyelids and said, "It's local." ”

Yang Yu: "......"

Wang Bao looked straight at him and said: "The border army guards the border and guards the frontier, and the opponents are all Turkic strong soldiers, and their natural combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the county soldiers. But the general didn't have to worry too much, although the county soldiers were weaker than the border army, the bandits were even worse than the Turks. ”

Yang Yu nodded, and asked again: "I don't know how many bandits there are?" Where are they usually hidden? ”

Before Wang Baozhi could speak, Xiang Dongyang said again: "Where do you know this, if you know where the nest is, it will be easy to do." Alas, every year there are more bandits, and this bandit is getting more and more every year. ”

Wang Baozhi continued: "My lord is right, in fact, the bandits' strength is not necessarily stronger than the county soldiers, but every time they go down the mountain to loot, they don't necessarily go anywhere, often when we get the news and rush there, the bandits have already been sacked and returned to the mountains."

But this Dongshan mountain range stretches for hundreds of miles, and no one knows where they are hiding. In fact, it is difficult to say that this bandit is difficult, it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult, as long as you find the thief's nest, you will be able to exterminate it in one fell swoop and never suffer in the future. ”

Xiang Dongyang "hehe" laughed twice and didn't speak, and seemed to be a little disapproving.

Yang Yu was speechless for a long time, but he didn't expect that the county didn't know how many bandits there were and where they were, how could this bandit be suppressed? Coupled with the combat effectiveness of this county soldier......

"You should know who the bandit leader is, right?" Yang Yu asked unwillingly.

Xiang Dongyang said: "I know this, the bandit leader is called Li Da, and the bandit is called Li Dabeard, who was originally a butcher. ”

Thankfully, it's not ignorant of the fact that "what started in the first place?" Yang Yu then asked.

This time, Xiang Dongyang snorted twice and did not speak, Yang Yu felt that this Xiang Juncheng seemed to be complaining, looking at who and what was not pleasing to the eye, probably because he had some opinions about himself, a general who had "parachuted".

Wang Bao said abruptly: "In the past few years, there has been a continuous drought, although the imperial court has reduced some of the money and grain, but it is ......."

Without further talking, Yang Yu nodded and didn't ask again. There has been a drought for many years, life is unsustainable, and Yang Yu is emotionally understandable when he occupies the mountain, but the bandits endanger the people, and he must be exterminated.

After Yang Yu watched the drill of the county soldiers, he felt unconfident. At the beginning, the emperor arranged for him to suppress the bandits, and he still felt that it was a trivial matter, how could the bandits compare to the extremely vicious Turks?

I didn't expect the quality of the county soldiers to be poor, and more importantly, I knew too little about the situation of the bandits. And when he arrived in Mengcheng County, Yang Yu became a foreigner, and he didn't know anything about the terrain and people's conditions.

In any case, you should still grasp as much information as possible first, so that if you don't know anything, it will definitely be difficult to win by risking your troops, Yang Yu thought in his heart. Yes, let's start with the terrain.

A few days have passed, and General Yang, who is a newcomer to suppress bandits, has basically no movement except for arranging to bring his own soldiers to guide the training of the county soldiers. ”

Yan Taishou was stunned for a moment and said, "Playing house? ”

Xiang Dongyang said: "It's true, our General Yang let people get a lot of sand and mud to move him there, and he didn't go out." I heard that the female captain who came with him closed the door every day and didn't know what he was doing inside. ”

When Yan Taishou heard this, both of them smiled lowly, revealing a look that you know, and after laughing for a while, Yan Taishou was upright, and said: "The young man is ambitious, it is inevitable that he will be a little unstable, besides, the young man is Muse, and it is normal for people to be human." Let's go, come with me to see this General Yang. ”

The two came to Yang Yu's residence while talking and laughing, and asked where Ming was, Yan Taishou pushed the door in, and said, "General Yang, what have you been busy with these days?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was still with one foot in the door and one foot outside the door, and he was stunned and couldn't move, looking at everything in front of him and opening his mouth wide, it felt incredible. Even Xiang Dongyang, who had been very dissatisfied, stayed in the local area as if he had lost his immobilization method.
