First, he talked in detail about recruiting troops, and then drew out from recruitment, and listened to Wu Henian talk about the specific situation of the prefecture and county under the jurisdiction of Yongping Road. Then expand to the roads along the border, the population, the property, how many are available, and what should be paid attention to. Under Deng She's deliberate encouragement, Wu Henian's mouth was like a river, and he talked endlessly.

The civil official was originally doing this, and Wu Henian was an expert. In addition, he has a good memory, and every time he talks about numbers, even the grain harvest a few years ago, he can be accurate to a single digit.

This man is indeed a capable man. Deng She secretly judged in his heart. It was not until noon that the soldiers brought food that they stopped. Deng She naturally invited him to have a meal together, Wu Henian was sincerely afraid, he couldn't refuse, he signed his body diagonally, and he was sweating profusely after eating a meal.

After the meal. Deng She didn't keep him anymore, asked someone to clean a clean house, and asked Wu Henian to rest. Wu Henian originally had his own house in the city, but he was occupied by a red scarf early on, and secondly, although this person was talented, he had no virtue, and he didn't put it under his nose, so Deng She couldn't rest assured.

After talking to Wu Henian, he was in good spirits. It was expected that it was enough for the people of Wenhua Kingdom to rest, so they ordered their own soldiers to go to spread the word, and only called Wenhua Guo, Chen Hu, and Zhao Guo to discuss with them about going to Goryeo.

As the saying goes, good things come in pairs.

Wen and Chen did not arrive, and Guan Shirong, who went to recruit the counties, came back. Taking advantage of the prestige of Daru Huachi's skull frame without skin and flesh, the six counties of a state were full of urine and urine, and all surrendered. The officials of the states and counties, under guard, were all brought with them.

"According to the general's order, what is told to them is that those who surrender will not be killed." Guan Shirong reported, "Now they are all waiting outside the hospital, will the general see it?" "Since Mrs. Wang gave power to Deng She, Guan Shirong, Luo Guoqi and others, like Brother Huang Donkey and Chen Hu, have changed their titles.

Deng She had no time to pay attention to this class of shrimp: "Someone is guarding it." He asked, "The inhabitants of Zhuzhou County are still stable?" Our recruitment flags and talent seeking orders have all been issued? ”

"The last general has left people everywhere to take charge of it. The state and county are calm, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Deng She nodded with satisfaction: "Guan Baihu is hard, please go and rest first." The wives and concubines of the officials in the road, I have already ordered Zhao Guo, selected a few good ones, and sent them to the residence of Guan Baihu. ”

Guan Shirong smiled and walked out. happened to collide with Wen Huaguo, Chen Hu, and Zhao Guo. Say hello and he goes on his own. Wen Huaguo's clothes were crooked, his hair was unkempt, and he had obviously just gotten up from bed. Seeing Deng She, he shouted and asked, "Brother She, it's noon, the meal has just been eaten, and he hasn't eaten yet." What are you calling us for? ”

Deng She got up and walked out from behind the desk.

In the courtyard outside the gate, the weather is getting more and more gloomy. Next to a few big trees, more than a dozen red scarves stood on the stone slabs, snatching them across the knife and doing the right to guard. He called the leader, an old brother who was also a thief, and told him to take the men out of the courtyard and let no one in.

Seeing that he was so cautious, Chen Hu asked, "My lord, dare to be the lower state and county, what is the change?" ”

"I have something important to discuss with my two uncles." Deng She asked them to sit down, but Zhao Guo refused to sit and turned behind him.

"What's the matter?"

"I don't know what the two uncles have to do for us to stop walking?"

"That's it?" Wenhua Guoda was disappointed, he didn't think so, "Didn't you say it all?" After recruiting soldiers and horses, I went to Shandong. ”

Chen Hu is a fine person, who hears the string song and knows the elegant meaning. Deng Shi guessed that Deng She had other plans, and he muttered, "I wish to listen to the opinions of the adults first." ”

"Shicai had a conversation with Wu Henian, and I was touched by it, and I had an immature idea. Last month, Guan Pingzhang passed on the story of Goryeo, and the two uncles still remember it. "My own family, there is no need to go around in circles, since Chen Hu asked, Deng She said truthfully.

Chen Hu was taken aback: "My lord, do you want to ,......" This shock flashed, and he quickly controlled his exposed emotions and looked solemn.

"Not bad." Chen Hu showed that Deng She expected, he nervously asked, "How is it?" Although he had made up his mind, the stakes were high, and the lives of everyone were at stake, and of course he wanted to hear the opinions of others. After all, one person counts short, and two counts long.

Chen Hu frowned and pondered repeatedly. He generally does not express his opinion until he is mature in consideration.

Wen Huaguo reacted, his mouth opened wide, and he was speechless. He's bold, but not daring enough to do that. He didn't know what to say, not that he was against it, but he didn't have an idea. He said after a while: "Soldiers and horses, is there a little less?" ”

In the morning, Uncle Chen had already released the rumors. Just wait for the four sides to disperse, and when they are panicked all the way, they dare not say that from tens of thousands of displaced people, they will attract 10,000 people, and they are still somewhat sure. Deng She explained to Wen Huaguo.

"10,000 ,......"

"There are so many people, agitating to the east. Cities along the road, mostly in my hands; Even if there are still those in the hands of the Tartars, as long as we don't provoke, they won't take the initiative to attack. Arriving at the Yalu River smoothly, it is estimated that there will be no problems. Deng She carefully analyzed, since he had this plan, he had already thought about the entire operation.

"What about when you get to the river?"

"Since Liao, for hundreds of years, there have been constant wars in Goryeo, and the vitality has long been greatly damaged. The people are sparse and the army is weak, and they have no fighting spirit. Liao and Yuan iron hooves, ravaged in turns, tigers and wolves dare to fight, long gone. For the rest, there are herds of pigs and sheep. Looking at the flow of the river, you can get a glimpse of the leopard. And we are all in the aftermath of the war, struggling to survive, and we will be able to break through. We don't want more, we will first seize one or two towns and stabilize our foothold. After that, based on it, the sergeants were trained and the soldiers were refurbished. There is also a Liaoyang red scarf in front of us, resisting the tartars for us, and we can slowly figure it out depending on the change of the situation. ”

Deng She's speech was simple, and Chen Hu raised two important questions: "Life is sparse, and the language is not compatible. ”

"Although we don't know Korean, there are a lot of Koreans who can speak Chinese. Moreover, there is no writing in Goryeo, and all the people used are Chinese characters. Speaking of this, he remembered that Wen Huaguo and the others were illiterate, and changed the topic, "Uncle Wen forgot?" Before we joined the army, across the banks of the Yellow River, we saw fewer Goryeo talents and monks who came to study and seek scriptures? Not to mention the beautiful merchants, there is an endless stream. Only this Yongping road, there are thousands of people. It can be seen from this that there are not a few people in Goryeo who are proficient in Chinese. So, the language is not a problem.

"As for the sparse life, the Goryeo refugees in eastern Liaodong are everywhere, no less than three or four hundred thousand. There are many small people and slaves who are born like Heguangxiu, and they can use food, return to their hometowns, and wealth as bait, and lure them as a precursor. To Goryeo, passing through Liaoyang Road, listening to Ha Guangxiu, there are many Goryeo homeless people, we can call each other all the way, we can get two or three thousand people, it is enough to use. ”

Chen Hu thought for a long time, and nodded slowly: "It's okay, try it to know." ”

Wen Huaguo listened to Deng She's analysis, and after a while, he couldn't find anything to object. Since he can't find it, it's feasible, he is different from Chen Hu, he has always slapped the table: "Since ancient times, there are many boats that don't get in the way, and the ghost who must not be put back in front of King Yama." Brother She, since you have made up your mind, but when the soldiers and horses are sufficient, let's taste the fat on the side of our mouths. ”

Dunshe breathed a sigh of relief.

With the support of the two of them, the opinions of the other generals can not be considered. the treasury of gold and silver, all under his control; If there is no gold and silver, there will be no soldiers and horses, and if there is gold and silver, the people who come to join the army will naturally know who is in charge. With people and horses in hand, Brother Huang Donkey and others don't matter. There are not many of them to go, and there are not many of them if they do not go.

It's just that Chen Hu asked, "What should Mrs. Wang do?" ”

He didn't finish his words, and the subtext was obvious. As soon as the centaurs arrived, she must have shouted to go to Shangdu. It's hard to regret what you promised. can't offend her yet, General Wang Shicheng's red scarf can't afford to offend.

——

1, Liaodong Goryeo people.

At that time, most of the residents of Shenyang Road and half of Liaoyang Road were Koreans. Until the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the ethnic composition of Liaodong was "seventeen Chinese, thirteen Goryeo, native, and Jurchen savages".

Some of them were captured by the Mongols to settle in Liaodong, and this part accounted for a large proportion, and in 1254 alone, the number of captive men and women in Goryeo reached 200,000.

There were also Goryeo soldiers who surrendered to the Mongols, and this part was about tens of thousands. Among the garrisons guarding the capital, there was a Wanhu Mansion composed of Goryeo; Meng Yuan was in Liaohe, Qingyun and other places, and there were Goryeo Tuntian soldiers; In Shenyang, there is a Goryeo Female Straight Han Army Wanhu Mansion, which is composed of Goryeo people and female straight people, and is one of the three major Ten Thousand Households Mansion in Liaodong; In addition, there were also Goryeo soldiers in Shangdu, Hebei, Shandong, Mongolia and other places. The so-called Han army does not only represent the Han people. The so-called eight types of Han people, at that time, in addition to the northern Han people, Goryeo people and female straight people were also called Han people.

The third important source was the Goryeo who fled to China to escape servitude and get rid of slavery. For this reason, the king of Goryeo wrote a letter to Emperor Yuan: "During the Bi year, the people in the prefectures and counties of the country and the slaves and maids of the official temples fled to Liaoyang, Shenyang, Shuangcheng (now Yongxing, North Korea), Jurchen and other places to avoid the servitude and sit in a scattered place. It can be seen that a Goryeo political darkness is worse than that of China ruled by the Mongol Yuan; Second, there were many Koreans who fled to China. Otherwise, the king of Goryeo would not have annoyed the suzerainty because of this.
