337 Target Fugu County
Early the next morning, the intelligence of the reconnaissance company was delivered to Hu Guang. He didn't expect that there would be a surprise.
After calling the heavenly army to leave, Fugu County has become an empty city. There were no supplies, but the buildings were not destroyed. Therefore, although it was recovered by the governor of Yansui, there were not so many people to live.
In fact, it's not that there is no one, the victims pull a lot of people, and the key is that there is no food. Before the governor of Yansui played the imperial court and appointed the county commander to come over, he directly used the county seat of Fugu as a barracks and a transit point for materials. It was garrisoned by a guerrilla, with a strength of about 1,500 people, but only about 200 members.
The materials from Jindi and the money received from blocking the road will be temporarily stored in Fugu County, and they will be transferred to Yulin after the materials have accumulated for a month.
It may be the reason why Fugu County has been abolished, and the imperial court has not sent a county order, so it has always become a material transfer station.
In terms of time, the month is almost full. In other words, now is the time when there are the most supplies in Fugu County.
Not to mention that the Heavenly Army plans to relieve the disaster victims, and the relocation of the disaster victims requires materials, even if you want to really occupy the Hetao Plain on the grassland, you also need a lot of materials. At present, no matter how much Ming army materials there are in Fugu County, they are always meat.
Moreover, there are only about 1,500 Ming troops in Fugu County, and there are only more than 200 families, so it is still certain that the heavenly army will be called. It just so happens that after laying the county seat of Fugu, you can once again use this as the foundation to attack everywhere to complete the purpose of entering the customs.
Hu Guang made a decision in his heart and immediately issued an order. Except for the three regiments, which left one battalion to garrison the Qingshui battalion to ensure the retreat, the army marched out and went to attack Fugu County.
Before officially marching towards Guannai, Hu Guang was a little worried about the recruits in the army. They were all Mongols who had just surrendered, and they were all burning, killing and looting before the pass. Don't be easy and forget that you are already a soldier of the Heavenly Army.
Although there are veterans watching. Hu Guang once again emphasized the three major disciplines and eight points of attention for the Heavenly Army, and explicitly ordered anyone who dared to commit a crime to be severely punished.
Both regiment commanders already know the importance of this military discipline and have enjoyed the benefits brought by this military discipline, so they are naturally very supportive. Immediately, he immediately called several of his cadres over and emphasized again. Layer upon layer of orders.
Hu Hansan even deliberately called Sun Yunxuan, the commander of the artillery company, and reminded him solemnly: "Don't think that you have a lot of credit and are messing around in the customs, understand?" ”
"Ah, Commander, I don't!" Sun Yunxuan saw that there was no one else left and right, so he said a little aggrieved.
Seeing that this old subordinate didn't admit it, Hu Hansan immediately snorted: "Who doesn't know that you have a close relationship with Brother Zhang Zhaodi, but as far as I know." You kid still likes to brag in front of those ladies that he has knowledge, military exploits, old qualifications, and is handsome, isn't it? ”
"Where?" Sun Yunxuan immediately denied it, but when he saw Hu Hansan's eyes staring at him, he was a little weak-hearted, and hurriedly explained: "Actually, it's mainly those sisters who want to hear it. That's what I said, they ......"
Hu Hansan was reluctant to listen to his explanation. Interrupted him a little impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'm just reminding you, put your mind away, don't drill into the pile of women." If you're sorry Brother Zhang Zhao, be careful that her father castrates you! ”
When Sun Yunxuan heard this, his face changed. Just waiting to explain, Hu Hansan waved his hand and drove him away: "Hold your mind and remember that you are a revolutionary." Hurry up, it's our turn! ”
Seeing Sun Yunxuan standing up and leaving helplessly, Hu Hansan shook his head slightly in his heart. This kid is good at everything. is indeed knowledgeable, has top artillery skills, has military exploits, and is also an old man in Fugu is considered an old qualification, and he is also handsome, but he is a bit of a good woman, and he hopes to drill into the pile of women. This is out of the base area, there are fewer people to supervise, don't make mistakes, the chief has repeatedly emphasized, you can't hit the muzzle of the gun.
At the same time as the Heavenly Army was called to set off, on the official road on the west side of Fugu County, there was also a team far beyond the Heavenly Army that was advancing towards Fugu.
However, this team is also strange, if it is a group of disaster victims, there are many people wearing armor and riding horses with swords; But if you want to say that this is an army, there are many more men who have no blades in their hands, who are dressed in tattered clothes, who are both men and women, old and weak, who walk numbly as if they were lifeless walking corpses.
In the middle of the team, there is a large flag with the word "king" on the tree. Under this banner, it is Wang Jiayin, who has an old relationship with Hu Guang and wants the lives of their two brothers very much.
At this time, he has long since lost the embarrassment he had at the beginning. Standing tall and riding on a horse, he pointed to the front with the hand holding the whip and was talking, with a look of pointing to the country.
On either side of him, there were also two big men. One of them is also Gao Yingxiang, who Hu Guang knows and wants his life, and the other person is the Zijin Liang King who Hu Kuan knows for his own use.
After the winter, the three of them came together, headed by Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong the second, Gao Yingxiang ranked third, and the team grew to 8,000 people.
"Big brother, according to the detailed report, there is really a lot of grain piled up in this Fugu County. Our 8,000 troops drove over, and it was easy to take the county seat of Fugu! As he spoke, Wang Ziyong flipped it with his outstretched palm.
But as he was talking, he saw that several of his army of eight thousand fell to the ground and never got up again. And the people on the side seemed to have been used to it for a long time, and when they saw it, they even rushed over, searching the corpses on the ground, trying to find something out.
Wang Ziyong didn't see it, turned his head, looked at Wang Jiayin and continued: "In these years, as long as there is food, there is everything. ”
Wang Jiayin agreed with this, nodded and said: "The second brother is right, I'm not afraid of no soldiers at the moment, I'm afraid of no food." As long as there is food, even those elite border troops will come to us. ”
"Big brother is right, so we are bound to get the food in Fugu County!" Gao Yingxiang echoed loudly.
Wang Jiayin nodded, but his brows furrowed slightly, he turned his head to look around, and said a little dissatisfied: "The way here is a little farther, and the loss is a bit too much." ”
All the way from Huanglong Mountain, at the peak, there were more than 10,000 people, and there were only 8,000 people walking. Those who are less cannot run away because they have nothing to eat. Only by following the team can you have a full stomach when the war starts, otherwise there will be a little porridge that can hang you. If you escape, you will starve to death.
These missing people, without guessing, also know that they are starving to death on the road.
Wang Ziyong listened to it and understood that the eldest brother was worried about the precipitousness of Fugu County, and was afraid that the old and weak brought by him would not be enough, so he said indifferently: "Don't worry, eldest brother, there is a bigger fort in front." The old way, after breaking through, robbed all the food, and the people in the fort had to follow the team! (To be continued......)
