Naima's defeat, even he felt inexplicable, he was about to take all the whole of Yuquan, and he didn't want to be rushed up by the Jin soldiers behind him. The Rouran bandits www.biquge.info are not troops, they do not have such good qualities, and they do not have the concept of rear defense. Believing that the Cossacks had gone to deal with the golden soldiers, they did not think about other problems.

The Cossacks not only failed to destroy this detachment, but did not even play the role of blocking the attack, but actually let the team rush directly into the city. was raided by hundreds of elites from behind, and a team of less than 2,000 people couldn't resist it at all, Naima's headquarters was terminated as soon as possible, and before he had time to escape, he was held on the head by a dozen pistols and taken prisoner. He was arrested with all the members of the staff of the Fifth Cavalry Division of his Rouran Jianguo Mushroom, that is, the sons and nephews of the big leaders of the horse bandits.

The capture of these people led to the Rouran bandits being leaderless, and the next battle, that is, a one-sided war, killed more than 300 people, captured more than 1,000 prisoners, and the rest fled in a hurry and fled out of the city in embarrassment. A large number of Rouran horses have become captured by officers and soldiers, and with these leg strengths, the mobility advantage of the Rouran people will gradually be caught up by the armed guards.

Ren Sheng's injuries were not too serious, and after drinking some medicine, he could slowly recuperate, but he still felt embarrassed, and the first thing he said after waking up was "Command, Ren Sheng has a negative military order, and he asked to be beheaded." Please behead the head of a certain person and pass it on to the battalions to correct the military law. ”

Zhao Guanhou shook his head, "It's not easy for you, you've been fighting very hard these days, and you can get through it." There is no need to decapitate, just lead troops in the future, remember to be careful. There are so many Rouran people in the city, how can they not be wary. ”

At present, the remnants of the bandits in Tongyu County have been basically wiped out, and the sporadic fighting is not on a large scale, and it is difficult to affect the troops. The people and merchants who survived the catastrophe, thanks to the grace of the former army, the merchants were willing to take out their own food ****, but Zhao Guanhou refused.

What he is more concerned about now is the situation in Taonan and the actions of the gang as a whole. Sun Meiyao pointed to the prisoner camp, "Those prisoners are the best source of intelligence, give them torture, don't be afraid that they won't recruit!" ”

Naima is a hard bone, although he saw leather whips, soldering irons and other torture tools, he did not frown, "Han people, we Rouran people are born with hard bones, what means do you have, just use them, frowning, you are not a descendant of the Golden Family." I'd like to see if your torture tools are powerful, or if the bones of our Rouran people are powerful. ”

Zhao Guanhou sneered: "You are a good man, these torture instruments may not be useful to you, but if I don't torture you, but hand you over to those merchants and Han people outside, what do you say you will do." There are many people in the city who are interested in you, and some people are willing to give me their daughters as little wives, just to exchange you for one person, if you don't say something, I will make this deal with you. ”

Hearing this, Naima's expression changed, and he shook his head again and again, "No...... You can't do this. Our two armies are at war, how can we use this as a means. I know what you want to ask, but don't expect me to divulge the secrets of our army's operations to you......"

The person who said this was naturally ready to leak the secrets of the operation, and after a night of interrogation, everything he knew had been poured into the bamboo tube and the beans were revealed. When it was dawn the next day, Zhao Guanhou had just eaten breakfast, looked at the confession, nodded and said: "This Naima is a wonderful person, basically all the useful ones have been said, and the useless ones have not been said." With such a tongue, it is better to grasp more. ”

Sun Meiyao drank milk tea and asked, "What are you going to do with those captives, the people demand that they all be killed to avenge their relatives." If one of them is not killed, it will be difficult to explain it here. If they are all killed, those Rouran bandits will definitely fight with us to the end in the future. ”

"I'm not afraid to fight them to the end, but at the end of the day, we have each other. One side does the first day of junior high school, the other side does fifteen, and in the end it is always the innocent weak who suffers. So these captives, let them draw lots on their own. Thirty percent of the dead lots, whoever draws them will blame their own bad lives, and hand them over to the people to dispose of, how to clean up and how to clean up, it has nothing to do with us. The other captives, like the commander, are odd goods, and I want to exchange them for people and things, and I can't just kill them. ”

Sun Meiyao smiled and whispered in his ear: "Are you still so murderous?" Feng Xi has it all in his belly, don't you give your son some yin power? is still making such a murder, beware of giving birth, she is still a daughter. ”

"So what, I don't have to worry about not having a son, there are so many women, there is always one who can have a son. Besides, I originally regarded men and women as the same, and I didn't have the idea that sons were more important than daughters. These gangs of Rouran bandits are inhumane and must be killed, otherwise, they will still come to make trouble. I'm worried about Taonan now, and the shopkeeper Dong personally went to Taonan to open a branch, if he has a mistake...... Sorry friend. ”

"I'm sorry for my bedmate, right?" Sun Meiyao gently twisted on him, "I have seen those pairs of shoes, that slut is a concubine, and she is so dishonest, if you let the shopkeeper Dong know, it will be a lively one." It's better to let him die here, you two will cover it at night, and no one will dare to say a word more. ”

"No matter what your identity is, you're always sorry for people. I know my eldest brother's skills, he is a good person, and the others are not very good. If there is a real war, he is 108,000 miles away, and I am afraid that I can't afford to fight with the Rouran people. ”

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, it's what it should be, after all, this time, it's the Fusang people who didn't do their own intelligence work properly, and they were beaten by the Rouran people, and they deserve it."

Zhao Guanhou thought for a moment, "This also proves that Fusang's manpower has also reached its limit, and they no longer have the energy to devote to this matter, so there is such a big flaw." In fact, this is a good thing for us, if Fusang knows all about the actions of the Rouran people, I would really be afraid. ”

The two were intimate for a while, Sun Meiyao went outside to order the team, ready to pull, Tongyu was still left to Ren Sheng to garrison, but his troops were reorganized, and a part of the ammunition was resupplied to him, and he continued to hold on.

Ren Sheng nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, people are in the city, if there is any mistake in Tongyu, I will not come alive to see my lord." It's just that my lord, you have brought so many captives, can't you go fast? ”

"I've already thought about the captives, hand them over to another team of men and horses to escort behind, Zhang Yuting They are experts in doing this, and they won't let a prisoner escape."

Sure enough, as soon as he heard that they were going to take prisoners, Zhang Yuting smiled and said: "This charge is an old business, if you can't do it well, then what kind of beard is it?" Brother, don't worry, if you take a seedling, I will pay you a golden flagpole. I asked my good buddy to take care of the escort and make sure it was okay. We have to hurry up to save people, and there can be no more city losses. This Tongyu disaster is too miserable, the second girl of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, it was fine, but when she got to Tongyu, why did she jump into the well, what is this called. ”

"No way, if no one knows her identity outside, she can still lie to herself and barely survive. When she arrives in her hometown, everyone will point fingers at her and accuse her of being a bandit, so she can only die. Tell me to go down and meet women again, try to make arrangements and protect them as much as possible, and don't let them go home unless I ask for them, and I will find a way to settle them. ”

According to Zhao Guanhou's expectations, the real fierce battle was in Taonan, but to his surprise, the news from the scouts of the vanguard was that the county town of Taonan had been recovered by the official army, and only a small number of bandits were entrenched in the Chengguan area. When the brigade of officers and soldiers appeared, these bandits had fled without a fight, and by the time the army arrived outside the city, Cao Zhongkun had already lined up outside the city with his troops to greet them.

Compared with the tragic situation of Tongyu, Taonan can be said to be a paradise, except for most of the houses in Chengguan were destroyed, the loss in the city is not large, including the Hua Tie Daosheng Bank, Zhengjin Bank's office in Taonan is operating normally, unaffected. The major merchants, mills, and warehouses are also carrying out normal commercial trade, but when the Rouran bandits entered the city, the children of some big merchants were kidnapped, and about 20 or so meat tickets were kidnapped, and they have not yet been rescued.

Due to the establishment of the Reclamation Bureau, Taonan attracted a large number of residents and businessmen to gather, forming a very large county seat, and the yamen was also wide, and as soon as Zhao Guanhou arrived, he naturally occupied the entire county government. The first person to meet is the eldest brother Cao Zhongkun.

Cao Zhongkun does not hide it, and there is no element of self-praise

"Fourth, you know, eldest brother and I are just a wreck, it's okay to mess around, it's none of my business to really fight. This time, Tao Nan was really hanging, and he almost let the Rouran people take it down. Fortunately, I have a penny and a martial artist, and the martial artist is the general Long Yang Sword borrowed from you, and I tell you, I have to pay back this person. Not only did he not return it, but he also wanted to promote him as a helper and fight with me. Whatever you want, I will make it up to you, and this man will be mine. He was not ambiguous these two times, and he had an impulse to fight, but it was Wu Jingfu's credit to keep the city. ”

Wu Jingfu is a talented man who defected to the Wuwei Right Army, and now works in the Fusang intelligence agency, spying on intelligence for the Fusang people, and has made some contributions, and Zhao Guanhou has also heard his name. I don't know if this time it has something to do with him.

Cao Zhongkun said: "It was he who found out that the Rouran people wanted to cooperate with the outside world, and specially offered me a way to plan and plan first, first arrest people in the city, and control all the Rouran people in the city." Then he pretended to open the city, but actually adjusted the cannons with their muzzles, and as soon as the Rouran people entered the city, they immediately fired the cannons. At that bombardment, none of the soldiers who entered the city of Rouran were killed, and I heard that the two big bandit leaders, one named Curly Pig Iron and the other named Qiuke Daben, were all killed. The Rouran people were injured at once, and the team was disrupted and did not dare to attack. Wu Jingfu set fire to Chengguan again, and held off the enemy with fire until your reinforcements came. The loss in our city is not large, and it is all due to him. This time, I have to protect his future, so that such a person can have a good background. ”

"Don't worry, big brother, I will be responsible for this person's future."

"No, it's not your business, you have to keep him under me. Can I do this, this time I have him, what about next time? I think it was to keep him under my hands and give me a staff member, and I would save myself trouble with him for advice and command. But Fuso, I don't know how to negotiate yet. ”

Zhao Guanhou nodded and said: "I will handle Fusang's negotiations, you can just talk to that Wu Xiucai, if he is willing to be under you, it is naturally the best, if he is unwilling, this kind of thing cannot be forced, otherwise it is extremely meaningless." How about the third brother's side. ”

Cao Zhongkun said: "The third child is more ruthless than me, I heard that after he entered the city, he drove all the Rouran people to the city, regardless of whether there is suspicion or not, the first one in the city is not left." When Rouranren moved his gun, he first set fire to the city gate, threw his gun and left bullets, and drove everyone away. There is also Feng Linge with a team of men and horses to help him, but he has not heard that Baicheng has been lost, but the situation is not too good. The Rouran people are besieged with heavy troops, so we have to hurry up and help him when we find time. ”

Zhao Guanhou agreed, but at this time, Sun Meiyao came in from outside and said angrily: "Fusang people are also hateful, and they use us as monkeys." Let's take a look, what Zhengjin Bank has prepared for us! ”

Zhengjin Bank has a temporary office in Taonan, and the materials that Zhao Guanhou asked for from the Fusang people before, according to Fusang, are all stored here. But when Zhao Guanhou arrived at the place, he saw that the faces of Zhang Yuting and the others were not good-looking, and he knew that the situation had changed again.

First of all, the agreed 200,000 taels of silver, but the actual amount is only 40,000, which is seriously insufficient for the figure. The bank manager's explanation was that the amount of silver was too large to be transported, and it could only be raised slowly in the future. These 40,000 taels also took a lot of effort to transport, but they can be paid by Fusang Jinyuan.

In terms of guns and ammunition, the 4,000 fast guns promised by Fuso were actually less than 500, all of which were rifles seized from Tieler. In terms of numbers, it means that there are only so many that have been shipped, and the others do not know where. There is also a huge gap between the grain figure and the agreed figure, and the explanation is that it is difficult to collect grain outside the customs and cannot provide such a large amount of grain and grass. You can only go to Baicheng and wait for the punishment to be fetched, and then make up for it. In fact, Jin Bing was still required to go to Baicheng to relieve the siege in order to have food.

The number of bullets and mines was more than half the number stipulated in the contract, and even the five hundred Albion horses could not be seen. In terms of medicines, there is a big gap between the knife wound and the gun wound medicine, and there is also a shortage of them.

The bank manager only kept bowing and apologizing, "I'm really sorry, the sea transportation line of the country has been seriously damaged by the Tiele people, the transportation capacity is seriously insufficient, and some of the promised materials have not been delivered in time, which is also something we can't imagine." We are very sorry for the regret caused by this, but please rest assured that when we completely annihilate the Tiele fleet, once the sea line of communication is restored, the arrears of supplies will be fully replenished. ”

The eyes of these people almost burst into flames, but they couldn't really kill the bank manager because of this. Fortunately, Taonan is not comparable to Tongyu, it is a very prosperous place, and the merchants are dense, and it is not difficult to purchase materials. You can use your own money to buy food and medicine for injuries, and help the Fusang people fight the Rouran people, which always makes people unhappy.

Dong Jun's Siheng General Office Grain Station naturally had the responsibility to procure military supplies, but he only ran out for two hours, and then came back and quietly reported a message to Zhao Guanhou. In the local black market, many red wound pills were found to be sold at high prices, and the sellers demanded that only gold and silver be accepted, not paper money. Food and guns are also being sold piecemeal, I am afraid that the military supplies that Zhao Guanhou needs are not not not transported, but they are resold and used for profit.

When Zhao Guanhou told the news to everyone, Zhang Yuting slapped the case violently, "Damn, no one dares to play this game with us!" Little Nose, do you really think I don't dare to him? Let him see today, our awesomeness. Someone, prepare! Tie him up first, and then ask us for our stuff back. (To be continued.) )
