"Three hundred and thirty people, plus those who fell from the city wall, a total of more than four hundred people."

"Make a record of the list and give it a pension later!"

"What about enemy casualties?"

"The Beihai pro-army left 800 corpses, and the Beihai tribes left more than 1,500 corpses.

Zhao Xun was depressed for a while, these 400 people were just casualties from yesterday afternoon to evening. Yesterday alone, the Huolin Army lost nearly 1,000 people, and although the Northern Navy also left nearly 5,000 people, the veterans of Baixian County were also stretched. There are 3,000 veterans in the Qianfu army, and the remaining 3,000 are new and strong, and the heavy armored battalion is also 300 less. Of course, it is not without good news, all counties have begun to carry out the county soldier system, and the mountain-character battalion, the water-character battalion, the fire-character battalion, and the earth-character battalion will all be drawn in the near future.

Support is secondary, but that Lu Ziliang built yì, and when the winter snow came, he let the soldiers of the Beihai tribes outside the city stay here. Of course, the main thing is to take tens of thousands of cattle and sheep and tens of thousands of war horses. Anyway, the King of the North Sea didn't want them to go back. In Lu Ziliang's words, we can negotiate with the King of the North Sea, and we will help him deal with these tens of thousands of soldiers from the Beihai Tribes, so that he can control the tribe.

The disadvantages of this are also obvious, and the Northern Navy will be the great enemy of the Huolin Army in the north in the future. But at the moment, eating these tens of thousands of soldiers from the Beihai tribes can make the north stable for several years.

"My lord! Yesterday afternoon, we left the three men behind, and they are now sober. If the adults meet or not, they also ask to meet the adults. Baixian County Commander Zhong Wen said. Now Zhong Wen is responsible for the logistics of the Huolin Army in Bai County, baggage soldiers, young and strong, city wall repairs, and so on.

"Okay, I'll go meet you and see what these guys are going to do?"

"You saw with your own eyes that those three men died?" Yun Wang asked.

"I saw with my own eyes, one was personally shot by the sharpshooter on the wall of the Huolin Army, and the remaining two were also killed by the defenders, and their subordinates vouched for their lives that they had been killed."

"Alright, you go down!" Chishu said with a wave of his hand.

"Just dead?" Yun Wang shook his head and sighed.

"Dead? There are only three of them, and there are more than a dozen, continue today, let them all go up for me, my brother is dead, don't they want to take revenge? Chishu said coldly.

………………

While the war was raging in the north, there was also an uproar in the south. The Huolin Army took the land of the four counties of Yanzhou Prefecture within half a month, except for the southernmost Anyuan County, where there is no news, the rest of the land is only the Fucheng Yingzhou City and its surrounding more than seventy or eighty miles are still in the hands of the Yan Army, and the rest are all in the hands of the Huolin Army. All of a sudden, the Huolin Army of Yanzhou Mansion shook the sky, and the surrounding provinces were hotly discussed. There are those who praise it, there are those who scold it, and there are many people who ignore it.

But no matter what others think, the Yingzhou Mansion immediately changed its appearance in the hands of the Huolin Army, and various localities have reformed the official system, land reform, and trade and taxation reforms. Unlike the Yanzhou Mansion, when the Yingzhou Mansion was reformed, it did not carry out large-scale purges, nor did it confiscate land by coercive means. As long as the other party has the formalities and exceeds the number of fields designated by the Huolin Army, the Huolin Army buys it at a slightly lower market price, and then distributes it to ordinary people. All of a sudden, no one in Yingzhou Mansion praised the good of the Huolin Army, and Zhao Xun also became a living Bodhisattva in the eyes of the people of Yingzhou Mansion. As for the imperial court, fart! When the Turbulent Army came, they did not react, and the Turbulent Army occupied the Yingzhou capital for several months, and they did not react. The court has abandoned us, do we still need to pay attention to them? Can the imperial court give us land and lower taxes like the Huolin Army?

And the large and small landlords and some large families in Yingzhou Mansion no longer oppose the policy of the Huolin Army as fiercely as Yanzhou Mansion, because they are also bullied by the Yan Army. In the past, when the imperial court ruled the counties, they were also subjected to unwarranted extortion and extortion by the government. But now, the Huolin Army does everything in a safe manner, and at the same time, many policies are beneficial to the people and them.

It's like some enlightened landlords and big businessmen, who give their fields to the Huolin army at a low price, or even for free, and the Huolin army will inform the people of the counties, because these fields are eventually obtained by the people. Therefore, these big families and big businessmen will be loved by the people, and it will be much easier for them to do things, and their credibility will be much higher when they start business. As for those who are indifferent, they will naturally be spurned by the people, and what they can bear there will have to conform to the general stream. Many people muttered to themselves: "Huolin Army's hand is beautiful!" ”

…………

"What's your name?" Zhao Mangyan Xu rushed to Changping Town with the five hundred people under the command of Youziyuan.

The chief of the five hundred replied: "Back to the adult, the small one is called Julian." ”

"You're a Turk?"

"The small one is half Turkic blood and half Han blood." Five hundred people said with a little sadness.

"I heard that you are very powerful, you defeated three or four Red Wolf Battalion soldiers who captured you in a row, and finally laid down your arms and surrendered?"

Ju Lian smiled bitterly: "The villain thinks that they are the rebels of the Evil Army, or those Evil Bandits who loot indiscriminately for money. But when I know who you are, I don't have to resist. When I was in the Turks, on the day of my mother's death, I always wanted to return to Yan. Later, it was exiled to the Dao Ya tribes, and now it has fallen into the hands of the Yan army, for me, there is no difference between the Yan tribes and the Yan country. One is my home for four or five years, and the other is my mother's home. ”

"How about doing it with us? Thinking about the current situation, you also understand that it is impossible to return to the Ya tribes, you are still young, besides, you are also half Han, why not join us. Look at them, in the past, they were all undesirable people of the Ya Ministry, and now they have joined our army, although they dare not say how good it is, but they must be much stronger than in the Ya Ministry. Xiang Yan said on the side.

"This ......" Ju Lian hesitated, not because he was nostalgic for the Yan tribes, but because he didn't know the purpose of what Yan Jun said.

"We are the Fire Lynx!" Zhao Mang said lightly on the side.

"Fire Lin Army! The one in Yanzhou Mansion! Ju Lian was taken aback, he thought that these were the Yan army of Pingzhou Mansion, but he didn't expect it to be the Huolin army in the north, and then said urgently: "What about the counties in the north?" ”

"We've taken it!" Xiang Yan said proudly.

Ju Lian smiled bitterly: "That's right, if it weren't occupied by you, I think you wouldn't have appeared here and attacked Anyuan County unscrupulously." I'll just say, how could such a powerful army suddenly appear in Pingzhou Mansion, and the spies and scouts in the south didn't even notice it. For you did not come from the south, but from the north. The north is the territory of the Yan army, and the adults in Anyuan County did not expect that there would be enemy troops in the north...... Alas...... Defeated, defeated so simply! ”

"I can't see it, you guy can quite talk, but it's no wonder that twenty-four or five is a five-hundred-person length, which is not bad." Xiang Yan said on the side, "How is it?" Join us or not? ”

"Good! I, Julian, joined the Huolin Army and took Changping Town, which is my vote! Ju Lian took a deep breath and said.

"Good, good! If you don't, you're going to go to the mines! Xiang Yan smiled. This is also what Zhao Xun meant, on the west side of Le'an County, north of Yingzhou Prefecture, there is an iron mine, and mining is a hard job, and it is also very dangerous. For this reason, Zhao Xun sent some bandits, prisoners and prisoners here to mine for the Huolin Army.

In Changping Town, since nightfall, Jun and Wen have been sitting in the city tower. The candle flame around him flickered gently, and it seemed to show Jun and Wen's anxious feelings. The room was very warm, and among the three large braziers, the coals were radiating warm heat.

"Report! Checkmate! A team came from the east of the town and came straight to us. The soldier's voice interrupted Jun Hewen's thoughts.

"Zhendong? How many people? How far away? Jun Hewen said urgently.

"Back to the general! There are about a thousand people, still three miles away, coming towards us! ”

"Let's go! Go out and check it out! Jun Hewen hurried out, came to the city wall, and looked far to the east. In between, a fire dragon slowly approached, and according to the number of torches, it could be seen that the number of the opponent was about 1,000, and the opponent was cavalry.

"General, they should be cavalry sent by Anyuan County, if it were an enemy, they wouldn't come so slowly and swaggeringly." An adjutant general said beside Jun Hewen.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the people on the town wall to see the nearby army, which was indeed the Yan army in Anyuan County, and it was You Ziyuan's subordinates.

"General Jun! The subordinates are General You's subordinates, and we have been ordered to come to support Changping Town, hold on to this place, and wait for the changes in Yunfeng Town. Ju Lian said loudly to Jun Hewen on the city wall.

"Ordered? Didn't you go to support Yunfeng Town? How did it end up with me? Jun Hewen was a little surprised. Although he did not receive a military order, he also knew that when Yunfeng Town was attacked, the first thing to support was Yunfeng Town, not here.

Ju Lian said with a smile: "My lord doesn't know, General You personally led people to support Yunfeng Town, but the general was also worried that the enemy army would attack the east and west, and would attack here instead, so he divided his troops and asked me to come here." The general has reported this to Yang Shuai, this is the warrant of the general of my family. ”

"Open the town gates!" Jun Hewen didn't ask much, he was also worried that Changping Town would be broken by the Yan army, and now that there was someone to support, he naturally had to accept it.

"General Jun, my general said, when we get here, we have full authority to wait for the general's dispatch. General Jun, do you see that town gate we are stationing? Ju Lian said respectfully. But in his words, he involuntarily made a choice for Jun Hewen, either the north gate or the south gate, and there was no choice for the rest. This is also a speaking skill, just like entering a restaurant, the shopkeeper asks if he drinks? And ask what to drink or what to drink? The effect of the two questions will be significantly different. This is also what Zhao Xun said when he was chatting with the Zhao brothers before, and today, it is used by Julian.

In fact, the entire town, in addition to the two town gates, the east and west city walls also need to be guarded, and it is possible that they will be placed in the Dao City and made a reserve.

"If you come from afar, then garrison the north gate. If you want to come to the Yan army to attack the city, you still focus on the south gate. When the time comes, I need your support, so don't shirk it. ”

said honestly: "The general can rest assured, his subordinates will obey the general's orders!" ”

Then Ju Lian's thousand-man team changed defense areas with the defenders of the north gate, withdrew the soldiers, and also let Jun Hewen settle at the south gate, which also made him secretly relieved.

At night, Jun Hewen, who had just fallen asleep, was shouted by the guards.

"What's wrong? General Ben fell asleep just now, don't you want General Ben to sleep? Jun Hewen scolded a little confused. In the cold winter season, no one wants to get out of the hot bed.

The guard hurriedly said, "General...... The big thing is not good, the Yan army has entered the town, and now, it has occupied most of the town and is coming here to kill. ”

Jun and Wen lived in the barracks at the south gate tonight, and when they heard this, they suddenly jumped up: "How is it possible?" How did they get in? Why haven't we received news of the Yan army attacking the city? ”

"General...... It was Ju Lian at the north gate who let go of the town gate and let Yan Jun in. "Actually, they didn't realize that it was actually the Evil Army that came in. It's just that the Red Wolf Battalion is acting under the banner of the Yan Army at the moment. Therefore, the Yan army in the city thought that the Yan army had entered the city.

"Is that him? He's not...... Damn it! Fast! Organize the soldiers to fight back! While wearing armor carelessly, he said urgently.

"I can't stop it, thousands of Yan troops have entered the town, and the Han people in the town have also responded!"

"Damn! Fall back...... Get out of the South Gate! ”

"Report ...... There are also Yan troops outside the south gate, and the Yan army that entered the north gate has already been killed......" A soldier hurriedly shouted.

"Those who descend will not be killed! ......" suddenly a monstrous shout appeared in Jun Hewen's ears.

Changping Town finally fell into the hands of the Huolin Army, and the 1,000 Yan Army killed 300 people, and more than 6 or 700 people surrendered. In fact, if Jun Hewen had been more careful, he would not have lost Changping Town so lightly. The change of guard and the stationing of the army are logically required to be ordered by the officials, but Jun Hewen didn't pay attention to these at all, and even said that You Ziyuan's handwriting was a careful glance, and he placed the other party in an important department. The loss of Changping Town so lightly cannot be blamed on others.

"Ju Lian, I have handed over to you the nearly 1,300 prisoners of the Yan army in Yunfeng Town and Changping Town, and I need them to be used by the Huolin army. Come to think of it, you also know the selection method of the Red Wolf Battalion, how to do things, you think about it yourself. The Red Wolf Battalion will send 500 people to your command, and your battalion number will be appointed by you when it is reported to the commander. When the time comes, there will also be a lieutenant with your banner and come to meet you. Zhao Mang stared at Ju Lian and said in a deep voice.

"Ju Lian swears allegiance to Lord Zhao Xun!" When Ju Lian heard this, he was overjoyed.

"Very good, I hope you do what you say, otherwise! Captain Yan, the rest will trouble you. Zhao Mang said to Yan Xu again.

Yan Xu smiled: "It's okay! I immediately dispatched five hundred to assist Brother Ju Lian. "The so-called transfer, first, the soldiers of the Red Wolf Battalion have exceeded the upper limit, and second, after the transfer, it can not only train Julian's subordinates, but also strengthen the control of these people. Yan Xu naturally understood. You must know that each cavalry battalion has a thousand people, but the Red Wolf Battalion has reached 2,500 people, which is far beyond the others. Now that he was pulled out, Yan Xu not only did not feel unhappy, but breathed a sigh of relief.
