"What, what did you say?"

Han Sui stared at the junior colonel standing in front of the tent, his eyes widened in surprise, and he said in disbelief: "You said that Luo Zhengxiao'er led the army to level the Zhongqiang other department, how is it possible, there are no less than three thousand people in the Zhongqiang other department, how can it be defeated?" ”

Di Chengying next to him was also surprised, a little incredulous.

Xiao Xiao said quickly: "Lord, the villain's words are true!" Luo Zheng Xiao'er attacked Zhongqiang Dazhai at night, Zhong Qiang people didn't expect anyone to sneak attack at night, and Luo Zheng Xiao'er sent a marksman to clear the mountain road and the sentry on the sentry tower, so Luo Zheng Xiao'er cavalry stole into Dazhai, Zhong Qiang was caught off guard and was killed. ”

"This ......"

Han Sui's pupils shrank, and he was speechless for a long time.

Yesterday, I was thinking about waiting for a good show, but I didn't expect to receive such amazing news today.

originally thought that when Luo Zheng first arrived in Liangzhou, even if he wanted to use force, at most he would just show off his strength to the Zhuqiang tribes when he met the alliance, and he never thought that Luo Zheng would directly lead the army to level the Zhongqiang other departments.

Zhongqiang is not a small tribe, let alone an ordinary small tribe.

Not only does it have more than 10,000 mouths, but there are no less than 3,000 people who control the strings, and it is also another branch of Zhong Qiang.

Whoever it is, before it has a firm foothold, will never be so radical.

If it provokes a backlash from the Qiang, things will only get worse.

However, Luo Zheng's style of acting surprised everyone.

Han Sui can also be regarded as a generation of heroes, but at this moment, he deeply appreciated Luo Zhengdi's decisiveness and ruthlessness, and after the people sent were beaten out by Tu Shen, he didn't hold back at all, and directly led the army to kill him.

not only killed the past, but also almost wiped out Zhongqiang's other troops in the first battle.

Even a person like Han Sui, who has been through a hundred battles, can't help but be frightened.

It's not that I'm afraid, but I'm very jealous of Luo Zheng's bold, ruthless, and efficient methods.

Zhong Qiang's other part is not a soft persimmon, anyone who wants to pinch it can pinch it casually. Not only was the village built on the mountainside, but also many fortifications were built, and there were sentry posts outside the mountain pass, the middle road and the village, so it was impossible to succeed in the sneak attack.

Even if he wants to break through Zhongqiang's other villages, he has to pay a lot of price.

You must know that the village of Zhongqiang is not easier to fight than a city.

However, now, Luo Zheng Xiao'er not only succeeded in the sneak attack, but also leveled Zhongqiang's other troops in a battle.

Han Sui settled down and asked sharply, "This was a few days ago?" ”

The little colonel replied, "My lord, it happened five days ago. ”

"It's broken!"

Cheng Ying suddenly shouted, "I understand that the cavalry that wandered east of Yunwu a few days ago must have been sent by Luo Zheng Xiao'er to intercept the Qiang people who fled to the west and the messenger land along the way. With five days, it was enough for Luo Zhengxiao'er to transport the cattle, sheep and grain from Zhongqiang's other departments back to Lingju. Hey, a mistake, a mistake! ”

"This ......"

Han Sui's face changed again, and he was silent for a long time.

Cheng Ying continued: "I heard that when Luo Zhengxiao'er left Luoyang, the imperial court only gave him 10,000 stone military rations, and the army under his command plus the people and servants was nearly 20,000 people, and 10,000 stone military rations could be eaten for a few days. This time, after stepping on the Zhongqiang Part, and getting all the grain, cattle, sheep and horses of the Zhongqiang Part, this guy can survive until the autumn harvest, and there is no need to worry about grain and grass. ”

Han Suiqi's face turned pale, "As long as you stay up until the autumn, won't this guy be able to gain a firm foothold in Liangzhou." ”

Cheng Ying said with a solemn face: "It's not all. Luo Zhengxiao'er used thunderous means to level the Zhongqiang tribe this time, and there must be an important purpose, that is, to suppress the Qianghu tribe. Even Zhongqiang's other tribes have been wiped out, where do those small tribes dare to touch Luo Zheng's children's moldy head again, even if it is Sister Le, Xiaoyue and other departments, they have to reconsider their attitudes and positions. ”

Han Sui paced around under the tent irritably, and said in a deep voice: "If Luo Zheng'er has a firm foothold in Liangzhou, this general will be caught in the middle by Ma Teng and Luo Zheng, and be in an extremely disadvantageous position?" ”

Cheng Ying said in a condensed voice: "That's true, so the lord must prevent this situation from happening." ”

Han Sui stopped and asked, "Does Gongying have a good solution to this unfavorable situation?" ”

Cheng Ying thought for a while, his eyes showed a fierce look, and said: "On the first day of February, Luo Zheng went to Baicaotan to meet with the Zhuqiang tribes, and at least 3,000 cavalry should be taken away. There were only 8,000 troops under his command, and he took away 3,000 elite Xiliang cavalry, and only 5,000 foot soldiers were left in Lingju. Why not take this opportunity to lead the army to break through Lingju and cut off its foundation. ”

Han Sui's pupils shrank, and he said vigorously: "Good idea, this is indeed a good opportunity." ”

Cheng Ying said again: "And Luo Zheng'er is not in Lingju, as long as the lord makes proper arrangements, it should not be difficult to break through Lingju." ”

Han Sui said: "Gongying has a clever plan to break the city? ”

Cheng Ying smiled and said: "Seven out of ten people have been killed, and a large area of farmland has been abandoned for a long time. I heard that in order to stop the farmland under his rule, Luo Zhengxiao'er not only distributed farmland to the people, but also was extremely tolerant of some bandits in the surrounding areas. Why didn't the lord send an elite army, pretend to be a bandit and go to Lingju to accept the government's placement, and then wait for the opportunity to sneak into the city, thinking that he should respond. ”

Han Sui's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "This plan is very good, according to what Gongying said." ”

Cheng Ying said: "This matter should be arranged sooner rather than later, and it must be arranged before Luo Zheng leaves Lingju." Otherwise, after Luo Zheng led the army to Baicaotan to join the alliance, Ling Ju would definitely be on strict alert, and it would be difficult to sneak in again. ”

Han Sui's expression was grim and he said, "Gongying's words are reasonable. ”

Cheng Ying continued: "Also, if you pretend to be a bandit, you must pretend to be, if there are no old and weak women and children, no family drag, only a group of strong men, as long as they are not so stupid that they are incurable, everyone can see that there is a problem." ”

Han Sui said: "Just do what Gongying said." ”

Lingju, south of the city.

When Luo Zheng led 2,000 cavalry and escorted 5,000 stone grain and grass to arrive, Xun Yu, Li Meng and others went out of the city ten miles to meet them.

Before sunset yesterday afternoon, Zhao Yun also led two hundred horsemen to find it and join forces in one place.

I walked for one day, but I walked for six days when I came.

However, it is worth it to be able to transport this grain and grass back.

"I've seen the general!"

Xun Yu stepped forward and waved his hand at Luo Zheng with a smile.

"Wen Ruo doesn't have to be polite!"

Luo Zheng was in a good mood, "With this batch of grain and grass, plus the cattle and sheep that Li Meng rushed back, if we get a little grain and grass from the Zhuqiang tribes on the first day of February, our army will be able to eat until the end of autumn." ”

Xun Yu said: "Thanks to the general running for the rations of the soldiers and the people, Yu is really ashamed!" ”

Luo Zheng laughed and said: "Wen Ruo is modest, General Ben just went out to kill and kill, and snatched back the grain, grass, cattle and sheep. ”

Xun Yu said a few words modestly, then turned sideways and said, "General, please." ”

"Let's go, go back to the city!"

Luo Zheng waved his hand and rode his horse first.

Xun Yu urged the horse to follow, slightly half a step behind.

Back in the city, the grain and grass and the Qiang captives were arranged by themselves.

Luo Zhengjing returned to his official residence and convened a group of confidants to discuss military and political affairs.

"General, what about those prisoners?"

Li Meng was the first to say: "Our army has leveled Zhongqiang's other troops, although these captives are powerless, but they are only afraid that they are thinking day and night to avenge their wives and children's families, unlike those captive bandits, and the general will think that they can't stay." ”

Luo Zheng didn't say anything, but looked at Xun Yu, "What does Wen Ruo think?" ”

Xun Yu replied: "Yu thinks that although General Li Meng is right, this is two thousand young people, and it is a pity to kill him." At present, the restoration of farming, the construction of canals, the construction of reservoirs, etc., require a large number of young and strong laborers. If the general degraded all these Zhongqiang captives to slaves, and used them to reclaim land and build water conservancy, he only needed to take strict care of them, and forgive them would not cause trouble. ”

Luo Zheng said categorically: "According to Wenruo's words, how to arrange these captives, there is a lot of trouble for Lao Wenruo." ”

Xun Yu happily arched his hand and said, "Obey the order." ”

Luo Zheng asked again, "How is the matter of the alliance?" ”

Xun Yu stroked the willow whiskers with his hand and said: "Zhuqiang and Xiaoyue have already sent people to reply, and the leaders of each department are expected to rush to Baitancao the day before the alliance, and it has been agreed that the troops brought by the various departments shall not exceed five hundred. ”

Luo Zheng asked, "How many soldiers and horses can General Ben bring?" ”

Xun Yu said: "The general can bring three thousand cavalry to go." ”

Luo Zheng smiled gloomily and said, "That's good, three thousand cavalry is enough." ”

After a pause, he asked uneasily: "I see that the grass has begun to green in the past two days, how is the progress of spring ploughing?" ”

Xun Yu replied: "I have just turned over the land, and I am organizing the people and captives to dredge the ditches to divert water to irrigate the land, and when the water seeps into the land, the spring wheat can be planted, and the corn can be planted until after the Qingming Festival." ”

"That's good!"

Luo Zheng nodded again and again, and waved his hand again, "That's it for today, everyone is tired, go down and rest!" ”

With that, he got up and strode out of the chamber and into the backyard.
