"Immediately send the report to the right general urgently, without delay!" After hurriedly writing the story before and after, Umon asked his guards to leave with this somewhat unacceptable report.

"Li Ligong and you have issued orders to the surrounding counties and cities, telling them to be on guard, and at the same time strictly investigating the movements of the Yanzhou Mansion army of these thousands of people. After finding out, don't act rashly and wait for Captain Pontus's military order! Immediately, Umon gave orders to the accompanying guards, so that they could go to various places to convey the new orders.

After the guards left, Wumeng's face turned pale for a moment, and then turned a little red. The thought that the government army was using that identity token that should not have been useful, he almost vomited blood.

I think that at the beginning, my 2,000 soldiers were ambushed by the government army, in order not to disturb the morale of my own soldiers, and it was not like letting the soldiers know, but the right general was invited to see the so-called rout of the other party. Therefore, it was unanimously agreed that the matter would not be made public. Even he agrees with this. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, I suffered a big loss, so big that I couldn't bear it. So big that even the front line will be affected.

"Someone, pass this military order to Linyi!" After thinking about it, Wumeng sent another order to Linyi City, asking them to prepare grain and grass again.

Now that the food and grass materials are gone, the needs of the front-line army are also gone. Armor and equipment can wait, but grain and grass can't. Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable......

…………

"Squeak ......"

Looking at the several heads hanging on the flagpole above the head of Siyang City, Wumeng's hand involuntarily clenched his fists and creaked, and his face was gloomy and terrifying. Even the little school that was escorted by Pingyu Town beside him couldn't help but retreat a little.

In Umeng's eyes, the open gate seemed to be mocking him. Laugh at yourself for your incompetence, laugh at yourself for allowing the enemy to take the city behind you with ease. Think about it, even the Tang army besieged for more than two months before taking one of the last two cities of Liangzhou Mansion, but now, the enemy army has taken one city from their rear without blood.

"Enter the city......" Wu Mengtong said coldly with red eyes.

The streets were deserted and empty, with only debris all over the floor, and even some food and weapons that had been left behind. Let Wumeng see the distressed blood, these are not someone else's, they are all transported from Linyi by their own hard work, and half of them are still transported from the headquarters.

"Report ...... Lord Lieutenant, in the southern camp, there are also 1,000 non-commissioned officers of our army who are detained in it. ”

"Let's go, let's see!" Umeng rode his horse. Most of the houses on both sides of the road are empty. They all left, robbed the Tang Army's things, and for fear of the Tang Army's retaliation, they abandoned their homes directly. It has been half a day since noon, and these people have long since dispersed.

Of course, Umeng is not in the mood to pursue these people who have robbed him of his food, and he is not capable of pursuing them. In addition to the hundred personal guards accompanying him, there were only five hundred soldiers sent by Pingyu Town to protect him.

"Untie them and let them out!" Looking at Ken tied together, the armor and equipment were pulled out cleanly, Wumeng was speechless.

"Thank you, Captain, for the rescue!" In the middle of the night, among the rescued soldiers, several soldiers were sent to thank Umeng.

"What about your officers here? Let them all come to me! Hearing that these people introduced themselves as ordinary soldiers, Wumeng frowned. As a lieutenant, I saved them, and these officers didn't come to see me!

The first soldier said bitterly and angrily: "Lord Duwei, now, the biggest officer here is the chief. The rest...... The rest were killed by the government army! ”

"I ...... Fuck ......" Umeng's eyes darkened. I planned to gather these soldiers, and then let Pingyu Town get some weapons, which can be regarded as having soldiers in my hands. Unexpectedly, the officers in this army were all cleaned up. If you want them to play a role, you must first place officers, and as for restoring combat effectiveness, it will not be possible in the short term. However, the garrison army is the regular sergeant of the Tang Army, and as long as it is slightly run-in, it can restore its original level.

Wumeng immediately ordered that officers at all levels should be promoted by one level in their original ranks, and the captain would be changed to the team rate, and the captain would be changed to the captain. As for the two Qu chiefs, only his subordinate King Qi served as them. And he personally commanded the position of commander, and in addition, the 1,000 new annexes who were imprisoned were also released, and together with the 1,000 garrisons, they formed two battalions. However, the combat power needs to be restored. What's more, they're empty-handed.

After returning to the treasury, county government and other places to check, Wumeng no longer had the heart to check the rest of the place. When he was ready to ask the big clans in the city to select one person to serve as the commander of the city and county, responsible for pacifying the few remaining people, he found that there were basically few big families in the city that had fallen to his side. Killing and running, their mansions are in ruins.

As for those big clans who have never wanted to belong to them and remain neutral, they have also run a lot, and the rest have closed their doors. Hearing the report from his subordinates, Wumeng realized that this general named Li Feng was really fucking ruthless. It's so ruthless! Umon sighed secretly.

In the end, Wumeng, who had no choice but to do so, directly threatened with an army of 2,000 bare-handed troops in his hands, so that a set of temporary management teams was selected among those big clans. As for the effect, no one knows, but now the important thing is to calm down this messy city first.

"Captain, if you want to talk about weapons, it's not that there is no way. Which of the big families in this city does not have private guards in their hands? They already have ready-made armor and equipment in their hands, and besides, they definitely have some in stock, and if they put them together, they will almost be able to keep the soldiers from bare hands. A new army leader came up with an idea.

"What's your name?" Umon listened to his idea, and suddenly felt that this was also a good way, at least, for now, it was a good way.

"Little Zhang Yongxue!" The officer of the new annex said flatteringly.

"Okay, Zhang Yongxue, that's right, Captain Bendu now appoints you as the commander of the new attached army, and you are responsible for this matter!" Umeng said in a deep voice.

"What if they don't give?" Zhang Yongxue asked.

"Sue them, dare not give this, as soon as the army arrives, the Yi tribe!" Wumeng had already been killed by Li Feng's army, and he could still endure the rejection of the small family in this place.

"Please also ask your lordship to lend the guards in your hands and those soldiers who have weapons, although they don't dare to refuse on weekdays, but now, our number is quite a lot, but those who have weapons are only the more than 500 people who came with your lordship." Zhang Yongxue said suddenly.

"Okay, Captain Bendu will be in charge of you, and those who dare to resist and obstruct can be dealt with directly!" Umon nodded in response.

…………

"Captain, the one surnamed Zhang has already proposed simplicity to the Lieutenant of the Tang Army, and has been allowed!" In the city, in an ordinary house, several people sat together.

"Inform the big families who are still in the city!" One said in a muffled voice.

"Rule them? Captain, why rule over them? Since they are unwilling to cooperate with us, and even the brothers sent by the Lord to deliver armor and equipment to the treasury are rotten, why should they be notified? One of them said with some dissatisfaction.

The team leader smiled: "They don't want to stick to the government army, they want to be celibate, how can it be so easy." Besides, don't worry, they should have gotten some movement here. Do you think that the big families who stayed in the city had no means to protect themselves? We are now bandits and copycats, and what we have to do is to get on the line and help us in the future. In the future, if you need to live, you can use guò to help you. ”

"Don't forget, there is a lot of food in the city, and how to transport it requires means, and we can't rely on it alone." The team leader whispered.

"The most important thing is that we hope that these big families will be completely dissatisfied with the Tang Army in their hearts, and in turn, the big families in Liangzhou Mansion will have different thoughts about the Tang Army."

…………

Zhang Yongxue led people to those big households very decisively, but it was obvious that the other party would not agree. To put it bluntly, the blades in their hands are only used by the guards who are responsible for security, and there are no superfluous.

Zhang Yongxue, who had been explained, was not ambiguous, and killed directly, without even saying threatening words. Kill a rich family cleanly.

In fact, Zhang Yongxue was also a little puzzled, this method of killing the big clan and collecting weapons for the Tang army made the Tang army quickly recover its combat strength. But they are people from the government army, and they are at war with the Tang army, and they don't deal with them, so why do they mention yì like this? But he just thinks about it, and the meaning of completing the explanation will be fulfilled. As for the rest, it was not in his consideration, not that he should have considered it.

Zhang Yongxue killed three big families in a row, so that the orders of the other big families for all the weapons of Zhang Yongxue could be carried out smoothly. The effect was obvious, and the weapons of the two thousand soldiers were in hand. Although it is miscellaneous, the argument is disorganized. But after all, it's not bare-handed, is it?

But those who were asked for weapons by the Tang Army were full of resentment and dissatisfaction with the Tang Army.

The Li family is the meaning of the superior clan in Siyang City. Its business has spread all over the counties of Liangzhou, and after several generations of hard work, it has also climbed to the top position. This Siyang City is the Li family's hometown, which made them set their family here.

"Tang Jun...... It's so presumptuous! When has our family been in such a situation for generations? Even the original government did not dare to do so. Li Ji said hatefully.

"The third child, don't say a word, the shape is stronger than the person, now, this is the world of the Tang Army." The eldest and the head of the family, Li Wenlai, said in a deep voice, but on the surface of his face, his heart was not so calm.

"Contact me to those who informed us, and tell them that we are willing to cooperate with them, but they will also help us bring the people of the family out of my house safely." After pondering for a moment, Li Wenlai said hatefully.

"Big brother, they're mountain bandits......"

Li Wenlai interrupted Li Ji's words and sneered: "Mountain bandits? Do you really think that they are mountain bandits, sue you, mountain bandits can get a large amount of food and weapons from the government army? Since the Tang Army wants us to die, we still don't care what kind of mountain bandit he is. ”

"Li Wu, let people transfer all the belongings in the family to the secret room." Li Wenlai continued to explain.

"What do you mean, big brother?"

"They came to ask us for weapons this time, so what should we do if they ask us for money and goods? All the grain and grass materials transported by Linyi were robbed, do you think they are not in a hurry? Li Wenlai sneered.

"Understood, I'll do it!" Li Wu responded.

Not only the Li family, but also most of the other families.

…………

"Lord Duwei, we are doing this, but we are going to turn against these big clans, which is not good for us to govern Liangzhou Mansion!" The county magistrate, the guard beside Wumeng whispered.

Umeng said in a deep voice: "You think I don't know? But the most important thing now is to deal with these thousands of government troops, as for the rest, they are all secondary. This time, this army can break through my Siyang City, if we don't take action, next time, I don't know what they will do. ”

"Besides, didn't I make the new annex the leader? In the future, these things must be put to rest, and they should be handed over. It's just that the new annex heard the wrong military order and carried out the wrong order. ”

The guards beside Wumeng secretly smiled bitterly, if these big clans are so stupid, your method will be useful. But if they do this, what will the new soldiers think? Don't talk about the new attached sergeant, I'm afraid my sergeant will have other ideas.

"Captain Yudu, the weapons have been prepared!"

"Oh? So how did Zhang Yongxue do it? Umon was stunned and asked.

reported the team rate, and 1510 told Zhang Yongxue's ruthless methods.

"Hmm...... This Zhang Yongxue is really a ruthless person, Captain Bendu thought that he would not be ruthless! Umon said in a deep voice. In his opinion, Zhang Yongxue was born in Siyang City after all, how to sleep, and he also had a little connection with the big families in Siyang City, but he didn't expect that this Zhang Yongxue would complete the task decisively and ruthlessly.

"My lord, the weapons of the two thousand soldiers have all been placed, and in addition, there are hundreds of extra ones. It's just that without bows and arrows and crossbows, my soldiers can't reach their peak combat strength. At this moment, Zhang Yongxue came to report.

Wumeng's face showed a smile and said: "Yes, Zhang Quchang, well done, Captain Bendu will remember your merits, and he will be rewarded after the war." ”

Zhang Yongxue clenched his fists and said happily: "The subordinates don't dare to take credit, they are all led by Lord Duwei, and the subordinates just follow the order." ”

Wumeng waved his hand and said, "What is yours is yours, you don't need to be polite." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Yongxue said excitedly.

"Lord Captain, my subordinates have something else to say."

Wumeng said: "But it doesn't hurt to speak! ”

"My lord, all the grain and grass materials we transported this time were looted by the government army. If our army wants to pursue this group of government troops, the food and grass materials are naturally as fast as possible. But now, the treasury of Siyang City has also been looted. Lord Commander, although we now have more than 2,000 soldiers, we have nothing to eat. Zhang Yongxue said in a deep voice.

Wumeng was stunned, and only then did he remember for a moment that he seemed to be busy checking the whereabouts of this group of government troops and their movements in the city, as well as counting the damage and existing population problems in the city, but he had never sent anyone to pay attention to the food and grass needs of the army. Of course, this also has to do with the fact that they have just arrived. But now, this troublesome problem is in front of Umun.

"Lord Duwei, the sky is getting dark, and the soldiers are afraid that they are going to starve......" Seeing that Wumeng did not speak, Zhang Yongxue said again.

"We don't have any food in stock now?" Umeng was in disbelief.

"Lord Hui, I'm afraid so! After the government army entered the city, all the grain and grass property stored in the city and the grain and grass materials transported this time were distributed to the people, resulting in the empty treasury. Even in the barracks. ”

"I ...... These bastards! "Umeng didn't know what to say, he had never been in this situation.

"What do you say?" Umeng asked, his eyes red. If it was in a village or town outside the city, he was afraid that he would directly send someone into the village to rob it. According to this is Siyang City, although the people have run a lot, they can't openly rob/rob in the city.

"Back to my lord, my subordinates led the team to ask for weapons earlier, and I saw that those big families were having dinner. My lord, if it is said that the people are short of food, it is true, but these big households, that family does not have countless grains? They would even prefer to have moldy food in their homes than to give it to the people. In that case, why not let it be provided? We have already offended them by asking for weapons, and we are afraid of offending them again? Siyang City is just a city in Liangzhou Mansion, but Liangzhou Mansion is the world of my Tang Army, so what is there to be afraid of? Zhang Yongxue said in a loud voice.

"Do you have a grudge against these big families?" Umeng asked suddenly.

"The fields of my subordinates are swallowed by these vampires, and those like me do not know the ordinary. In addition, his subordinates had exterminated the three clans before, and seized a lot of property, which could be used by the adults to reward our soldiers. The subordinates have brought these belongings to the county government and are waiting for the adults to dispose of them. ”

Hearing that the other party said that he had a grudge against the big family, Wumeng let go of a strange feeling in his heart. For what the other party said, Wumeng also has a deep understanding. However, what Zhang Yongxue said also made him think that these big families should have a lot of money and food. It is also a method to be used by the army.

At this moment, Siyang City was defeated and morale plummeted, and it was also a very good means to use money to reward the soldiers and let them fight bravely to kill the enemy. Umeng once again focused his attention on chasing and killing the government army, and as for local issues, he had now run away from the clouds.
