Shi Dayong didn't want to enter the city, not because he was afraid that Xianghe County was ruined, but because he didn't want to go into the city to disturb the people. Looking at the appearance of Xianghe County, it seems that it is impossible to accommodate 700 soldiers at once, thinking that anyway, he will leave for the south tomorrow morning, so Suo Xing will not enter the city, and find a place outside the city to settle down overnight.

If you are out on the battlefield, you will not disturb the place if you can. But now that he has arrived in Xianghe County, he still has to deal with the local officials as usual, and the local government must also provide three grains and grass, otherwise Jinzhou will have to rush on an empty stomach.

This man can be hungry for a day or two, but the war horse is not hungry. There are a total of 200 war horses in the army, all of which are provided as treasures, how can they starve. The key to fighting in the south also depends on these two hundred Iron Floating Slaughter, if the war horses are overwhelmed by hunger, then the Iron Floating Slaughter will not be able to play a role. In this way, Shi Dayong's expected heavy cavalry broke the formation, and the infantry cover tactics were difficult to work.

According to Wang Chengen, although Kong Youde's thieves were also from Liaozhen in Dongjiang, there were only seven or eight hundred of them, and most of the rest were coerced, so they could only wave their flags and shout, and they had little combat effectiveness. Therefore, when he was stationed in the Shenji Battalion, Shi Dayong thought of the method of applying the heavy riding to break the hole.

Hundreds of people are coerced by tens of thousands of people, no different from a rabble. In addition, without cavalry, it would be difficult for the Kong Department to counterattack and contain the Tiefutu, so that the battle could be declared over if the Tiefutu heavy armor crushed for one round.

Therefore, these two hundred war horses occupy an extremely important position in Shi Dayong's entire tactical arrangement, and there must be no mistakes.

When he set off from Beijing, the Ministry of War only allocated two grains and grass, and for the rest of the trip, Shi Dayong could only use the official document issued by the Ministry of War to requisition the place, otherwise, his 700 people would face the danger of having no food to eat.

In addition, in addition to asking for food, Wang Chengen also said that the 1,000 Beijing battalion soldiers assigned by the Son of Heaven to the command of Shi Bu were also stationed in Xianghe, so no matter whether the Jinzhou army entered the city or not, Shi Dayong would always meet with local officials and ask the other party to provide three grains and grass. In addition, I met the commander of this Qianjing battalion and discussed with him about going south.

It is a discussion, and the command of the Beijing battalion is the hereditary commander of the fourth grade, and in terms of grade, it is one grade lower than Shi Dayong, a Jinzhou general from the third grade. \/\/\/\/ But the other party is the commander of the Beijing camp of the Son of Heaven's Praetorian Guard, and he is the general of the border army.

One is in Beijing and the other is in the locality, according to convention, Shi Dayong, a border army general from the third grade, could not command the Beijing battalion of the fourth grade. But since the Son of Heaven allocated this Qianjing battalion to his command, Shi Dayong should overpower the commander, but on the surface, Shi Dayong could not suppress the other party in the name of Shangguan, so he could only discuss the friendship with the other party with an equal attitude

After stopping at the city gate, Dayong asked Guo Yi to enter the city to inform the local know, and then dismounted and found a big stone with Jiang Wanli and Cao Bianjiao and sat down.

At this time, it was just after the Shen time (more than three o'clock in the afternoon in later generations), although there were not many people in and out of the county, but there were still some. Judging from the clothes and items they held, most of them were villagers near the county town who went to the city to sell goods and returned, or villagers who went to the city to buy salt and iron. It is rare to see a merchant traveling passing by, even if there is, it is also in a hurry, and the Jinzhou army at the city gate is also a face of jingti, and dare not approach.

Because all the way I saw was the tragic scene after the family was broken and people died, especially the graves, which deeply affected the whole of Jinzhou, so the seven hundred soldiers were all heavy-hearted, and sat on the side of the road in silence to rest, and no one spoke loudly.

When I saw the people, I didn't ask questions, and I didn't come forward to interrogate those merchants, which made the people and merchants very strange.

After staying for a while, he saw that there were people in the city running to the city gate in a panic, and when he saw that there were also officials and soldiers outside the city, he immediately panicked. From time to time, they looked into the city, and then outside the city, which was strange.

Seeing this, Shi Dayong and the generals were all strange, and they also glanced at their own soldiers, thinking that their own soldiers had scared the people. But when he saw that his own soldiers were no different, and those people who came out of the city were even more frightened, and their hearts were full of doubts.

Could it be that something is going on in the city?

Shi Dayong and Jiang Wanli glanced at each other, the latter nodded slightly, turned around and summoned two personal soldiers, whispered to them, and the two hurriedly ran towards the city.

At the gate of the city, there were already more than 100 people who were about to leave the city, and when they saw the officers and soldiers on the opposite side suddenly running towards the city gate, they were immediately frightened and scattered. Faintly, it seems that the call of the soldier thief is heard.

This situation couldn't help but make Shi Dayong more suspicious, his brows furrowed slightly, and he ordered in a low voice to go down, and the whole army was on alert.

After waiting for a while, Fang saw a group of people in the city hurrying over, and after this group of people rushed out of the city gate, they saw that the people who came were officials and errand officers from Xianghe County, and the first person was the Qipin County Zun who was embroidered in front of him and had green robes and clothes.

When the Xianghe County order came, Shi Dayong led the generals to meet each other, and the two sides met at the gate of the city more than ten zhang.

Dare to ask, but the Liao army soldiers who hit Dongyu in Jinzhou a month ago? Zhao Wenqi was not sure that these soldiers in front of him would be the Liao army from Jinzhou, so he asked specifically in case it wasn't.

Shi Dayong glanced at the other party, nodded and said: Exactly! This official is Shi Dayong, a general of Jinzhou, who was ordered to go south to Shandong to quell the chaos, and dare to ask the county's honorable surname?

As soon as he heard the other party call himself a county honor, Zhao Wenqi was so busy that he gave up his hand again and again, and bowed down to the situation: Don't dare, don't dare, the subordinate Zhao Wenqi has seen the general! (Author's note: In the Ming Dynasty, the generals can be called generals.) ）

Lord Zhao, please get up! Shi Dayong stepped forward with an arrow to help Zhao Wen get up. There are also some rizzles in this era, he is quite self-aware, and he knows that no matter how low the other party is, but as a general, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is better to be polite and respectful.

Zhao Wenqi gave in a little and got up. After getting up, he looked at the other party with some excitement, and then noticed that the other party was wearing a mask on his face, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned. But soon returned to normal, and asked very respectfully sideways: The general came from afar, and he wanted to come all the way, and the lower official had prepared a thin wine in the yamen, and asked the general to drink a few glasses of wine.

Oh, no need, the emperor is in charge, and the military situation is urgent, so it's really inconvenient to drink.

Shi Dayong rejected Zhao Wenqi's kindness, and said: I didn't want to disturb your county, but I didn't have much grain and grass when I went out of Beijing, so I wanted to ask the county lord for some grain and grass. After speaking, he handed the military department document handed over by Jiang Wanli to Zhao Wenqi's hand, this is the military department's survey document, please verify it with the county lord.

After Zhao Wenqi took it and looked at it, he nodded and said: Yes, it is indeed an official document of the Ministry of War. Then he politely returned the official document to Shi Dayong, and asked cautiously: I don't know how much grain and grass the general wants? But if the county can raise it, it will be gathered by the general.

Shi Dayong said: Not much, 700 soldiers, 200 war horses and 3 riri are needed.

Seven hundred, two hundred horses, three riri?

Hearing this number, Zhao Wenqi was stunned, and the master Deng Tai and others behind him also thought that they had heard it wrong, and they showed their unbelief one by one.

The other party's appearance made Shi Dayong a little embarrassed, thinking that he wanted more, and there was not so much food in the county, so he was busy and said: If your county is in difficulty, then the two are also needed.

At this time, Zhao Wenqi was sure that he had heard correctly, what the other party wanted was three grains and grass, and said without thinking: Not much, not much, not much grain and grass in three ri, although the county is not rich, but there are still some generals who have this bit of grain and grass, please wait a while, and the next official will call the following to arrange, and the general will be able to prepare it for the general in the evening. After speaking, he turned around and instructed Deng Tai to immediately take people to the county government warehouse to allocate grain and grass for the Jinzhou army. Deng Tai and the others were already happy and bad at this time, they never expected that the Liao army in front of them was so sympathetic to the place, and they would levy three ri's needs for food.

Deng Tai was afraid that the Liao army would regret it, so he led the officials to the warehouse with wind on his legs.

After Deng Tai took people there, Zhao Wenqi saw that the discipline of the upper and lower armies in Jinzhou was strict, and he couldn't hear the noise at all, and then thought of the Beijing soldiers in the city, and couldn't help but respect the Jinzhou army even more. Secret Dao: Only such officers and soldiers with strict military discipline can defeat Dongyu Jiannu, and only such officers and soldiers can fight with Jiannu, in exchange for those Beijing camp soldiers, I am afraid that they will be defeated in three or two strokes.

Under the respect, the heart of the invitation is even worse, and I can't help but ask again: the grain and grass still need to be prepared, why don't you ask the general to move the disdainful ya, eat some food, and wait for the county's grain and grass to be adjusted, and then ask the general to check.

Lord Zhao is kind, and he understands it. But it is really not necessary, the general and his subordinates will wait outside the city, and they will not enter the city at night, but camp outside the city, so as not to disturb the people of Guixian.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Wenqi was even more shocked, and he was impressed by the masked Liao army general in front of him, thinking that the so-called famous general was the general in front of him! I'm afraid that the Yue family army in the past is only like this!

Shi Dayong saw this expression on the other party's face, and suddenly that expression, a little funny, thinking that the other party had something else to think about, so he pointed to the dilapidated Xianghe city wall and said: Lord Zhao, seeing that you Xianghe County is like this, I am afraid that it will not be easy for you to be respected in this county. Let's stop the banquet, if the adults have the heart, they should give the people more convenience. The so-called happiness of the people is the happiness of the officials. This general is also the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the food and clothing are supported by the people, so they do their best to reduce the burden on the place, and those who can not disturb the place will not be disturbed. If something happens, this will be uneasy.

Hearing this, Zhao Wenqi was stunned again, and secretly sighed, this Jinzhou General Shi is really a good general for the country and the people, if I have a few more Shi generals, why worry that the world will not be peaceful soon!

The general was high-spirited and sympathetic, and the subordinates were deeply grateful and respectful. On behalf of the people of the city, the lower official bows to the general! As he spoke, Zhao Wenqi bowed down and bowed deeply, but Shi Dayong couldn't stop him.

Lord Zhao doesn't have to be like this, this is all a trivial matter, and it is not worth so much courtesy from adults.

Shi Dayong said, but he caught a glimpse of many people behind the city gate who were watching nervously and thinking about the panicked people he had just seen, and couldn't help but ask Zhao Wenqi: Lord Zhao, forgive the general, I don't know what happened in your county, why are the people panicked, and they are also frightened when they see the general's men and horses?
