Chapter 24: The Lingzhou Rebellion

Li Zheng acted vigorously and resolutely, since he had made a decision, he did not procrastinate, and immediately asked Zhang Shan and others to gather troops and horses, and turned around and summoned Zhao Wu again.

This time, he must go to preside over it in person. After he left, a series of affairs in the grassland would fall on Zhao Wu's head.

But Zhao Wu's talent is limited, and the response is insufficient, if a new problem emerges that needs to be dealt with, Li Zheng is afraid that Zhao Wu will not be able to handle it. So call him in and give him some detailed instructions.

"After I left, the construction continued as usual and did not need to be changed. After the road to the mountains is completed, efforts will be made to find more mineral deposits. If the new mine is confirmed, continue to build roads and connect them, which is the first point. ”

"Second, the matter of land reclamation cannot be stopped, the more land the better direction of land reclamation, not to continue to the south, but to the west, to the direction of the Yellow River (Yellow River). Relevant irrigation and fertilization facilities should also be built in place. After the ginseng wheat is ripe and harvested, displaced people can be recruited as appropriate to enrich the pasture population. If I haven't come back at the beginning of autumn, you have to remember to organize people to sow ginseng wheat by hand. ”

"Third, livestock in pastures should also be raised on a large scale. Cattle, sheep, horses, red jade birds, and echinoderms, the more the better. Therefore, the size of the grassland must also be expanded. But I know that this is not easy, you can secretly expand the range of the pasture to the north, but be careful not to hide it so as not to attract the attention of the Huns and the Qiang people in the north. ”

"Fourth, the role of thatch is huge, and the scale of planting must be increased. It can not be limited to the range of grasslands, as long as the nearby area with abundant water sources, plant the thatch, and when it is ripe, you can send people to harvest and store. ”

"In addition, the hunting team will continue to strengthen the hunting area, and at the same time pay attention to collecting information and recording maps."

Zhao Wu listened while quickly recording with a brush.

"Oh, yes."

Li Zheng paused, and said: "I want to take all this batch of soldiers away, I will instruct Wang Laohu to recruit soldiers to continue training, you help watch after you go down to calculate the grain hoarded in the pasture, if there is rich, you don't have to wait for the ginseng wheat to mature, from now on start recruiting displaced people as appropriate."

After saying so much in one breath, Li Zheng's mind spun and turned, and he felt that it was almost over, so he said: "Probably like this, if I really encounter a problem that is not easy to solve when I am not there, I can discuss it with Wang Laohu and others, but it really can't be solved, and then I will be summoned by Lan Xiangniao." ”

"Remember."

Zhao Wushen gave a bow and walked out.

"Wait"

Li Zheng suddenly patted his forehead and said, "There is still something to do." ”

Zhao Wu turned around.

"I will take all the men and horses away this time, and I will divide about a hundred people in Lingzhou. And with the supplies that the two hundred men need left, go and prepare for me a month's supply. ”

"Whoa!"

Because of Li Zheng's long-term plan, the reserve of materials such as military rations has been done a long time ago.

The military rations in the Shenzhou grassland are extraordinary, but they are dry cakes made of thatched grass and mixed vegetables and grains. The extremely short growth cycle and reproductive ability of the thatch give it a huge yield. It also has plenty of nutrients and energy, which is just right for making a large amount of dry food like high-energy compressed biscuits. Although the taste of this dry cake is average, it can be an excellent supplement to the body's needs, and can be eaten by people and horses, which can be said to be suitable for everyone and horses.

Moreover, the dried thatch cake also has the great advantage of small size and easy to carry, which is just suitable for marching.

After Zhao Wu left, Li Zheng slowly knelt down and sat down, and his body and mind gradually calmed down.

After a long time, he sighed slightly: "There are too few talents."

Even though the management structure of the grassland is already good, Li Zheng still feels that many things must be done by himself, otherwise it will be difficult for the grassland to operate.

In the final analysis, it is because there is no talent under hand.

Just like just now, he had to give Zhao Wu instructions in detail in all aspects. If there is a capable person under his hands, where can he worry about it? It is completely possible to solve things according to the actual situation on his own, which is much more flexible than what he needs to instruct, and the effect will be better.

After pinching these distracting thoughts out of his mind, Li Zheng began to think and analyze the situation in Liangzhou in detail.

How chaotic Liangzhou is now, Li Zheng doesn't need to think about it to know. The death of the official management class and the rebellion of the army, like a loose horse, spread rapidly. Even a big family like the Fu family had to migrate to avoid disaster.

Li Zheng is completely powerless to change this.

He wants to save Fu Nanrong, who is too shou in Hanyang and is famous all over the world, although it is difficult, but in Li Zheng's opinion, it is not impossible.

From the news obtained from Zhou Lin's mouth, Li Zheng analyzed an extremely critical storage zĂ i.

That is, Han Sui and others jointly promoted the kingdom as the leader!

This is very strange.

Who is Han Sui?

This bastard was a celebrity earlier, and he was also an official. When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, he also persuaded the general He Jin to get rid of the eunuchs. In general, the reputation is not small.

After the Xiliang rebellion, Han Sui successively had many allies, such as Beigong Boyu, Bian Zhang and others who elected him as the leader, but now, these people are all dead, dead in the hands of Han Sui, and Han Sui became the leader himself.

From this point, it can be seen what kind of person Han Sui is - unwilling to live under others, with strong wrists and ruthless methods!

Isn't it strange that such a man, with an army of 100,000 under his command, would elect an obscure kingdom as its leader?

Although Li Zheng didn't understand the reason, Li Zheng had reason to believe that the rebels were far from monolithic!

Since this is the case, even if the rebels are powerful, there are flaws, and flaws give Li Zheng a chance

Zhao Wu's ability may be insufficient, but when he starts to do things, he is very realistic.

In just a few hours, everything that should be prepared has been prepared.

At this time, Zhang Shan and others also gathered their respective armies and finished their lectures.

Li Zheng received their report, and did not say much, only asked everyone to get ready, and set off immediately the next morning.

Time flashed, and it was the next day.

The sky had just dawned, and Li Zheng was already on the way to Lingzhou at this time.

Behind him, there were seven blue-armored war horses, sixty war horses and light horses, and more than two hundred light and heavy foot soldiers. In addition, 60 more war horses were prepared, specially equipped for light horsemen, so that one person and two horses could maintain their mobility at any time. The men and horses were lined up in two teams, all with their heads held high and their steps neatly aligned.

Everyone walked in silence, and there was no noise in their ears except the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps.

This is the result of military discipline training over the past period of time. If it had been before, it would never have been seen.

On the back of each foot soldier was a bag sewn from sheepskin, which contained a month's worth of military rations. The light cavalry hung two of these bags, and the green armor cavalry had three. The man must eat, and the mount must eat.

Li Zheng was carrying a blood dragon spear, a red tasseled helmet on his head, wearing fish scale armor, and a Chixiao sword hanging from his waist, riding on the back of Qingyun like a fortress, which was really powerful.

"White wolf!"

Li Zheng greeted the red sun that had just emerged, and said to the white wolf who was following closely beside him: "You take a team of people to go first and go to find out the current situation in Lingzhou." ”

When the white wolf received the order, he immediately clenched his fists and promised, waved his hand and took ten light horses, and galloped away quickly.

If what Zhou Lin said is true, the Fu family will move away today.

Fu's influence on Lingzhou is too great, from military politics to people's livelihood, no aspect can be separated from Fu's tentacles.

Because of this, the migration of the Fu family definitely dealt a huge blow to Lingzhou.

People will panic - how much of a catastrophe will it take for Fu to migrate? Based on the small news in the market, many people will guess about the rebellion of the rebels. Therefore, Lingzhou will definitely be chaotic! As for what kind of chaos will be, Li Zheng can't guess this.

That's why he sent the white wolf to lead people first to inquire about the situation in Lingzhou, so that he could adjust the plan at any time.

From Shenzhou Grassland to Lingzhou City, there are fifty miles of land. The section of the mountain road at the exit of the pasture has long been built into a flat road, so the march is not slow.

It's just been more than an hour, and by the end of the morning, Lingzhou City was already in sight.

The sun is rising and the sun is shining, and it stands to reason that the weather in June, under the scorching sun, should be very hot and make people sweat.

But the team led by Li Zheng was all refreshed.

This is thanks to the special features of the first-order armor.

In the first armor training, Li Zheng experienced its characteristics - constant temperature.

This does not seem to be of much use for war, it does not have effective lethality. But when you think about it, it's an extremely powerful feature.

In a certain distance, regardless of winter or summer, soldiers wearing armor will always be stronger in terms of physical fitness and morale than those without armor.

For example, on a hot summer day, the temperature is too high, and soldiers wearing ordinary armor will sweat hot. This will lead to a rapid loss of physical energy, and even make soldiers feel war-weary.

It's the same in winter, when the temperature is too low, the body stiffens and it is very inconvenient to move.

And the armor perfectly avoids this!

Even Li Zheng himself had to sigh at the magic of the system.

Under the scorching sun, the outline of Lingzhou City has gradually emerged.

Far away, Li Zheng saw ten light horses galloping over.

"Lord!"

It's the white wolf.

"How's it going?"

Li Zheng asked.

"It's very confusing!"

The white wolf said: "Lingzhou City is almost in ruins!" ”

"What?!"

Li Zheng was slightly taken aback: "When did the Fu family leave?" ”

"It's early in the morning," the white wolf replied, "When the subordinates brought people to Lingzhou, the Fu clan's horse team had just left!" ”

"What about the government? What are the actions of the Lingzhou County Ya? Li Zheng asked again.

"There was no movement." The white wolf showed a hint of ridicule: "The county government has long been empty. ”

Li Zheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

There is no one in the county office, what is this?!

What about the prefectural order? Could it be that he abandoned the official and ran away?!

But in the blink of an eye, the corners of Li Zheng's mouth curled.

"That's a good thing."

A good thing indeed. Li Zheng has been thinking about it for a long time, taking a piece of the pie from Lingzhou and biting a piece of interests. And now, isn't it the best time?
