Chapter 760: Carry out all the food stockpiles

On the Huainan border, a cavalry wearing a red robe rushed towards a large village.

One of the leading generals, dressed in dark gold armor and riding on horseback, was like a statue of a god, giving people an irresistible might.

All cavalry helmets were covered with bright red feathers.

As the cavalry ran, the fiery red feathers trembled, and from a distance, it looked like a red wave.

Hundreds of people gathered at the entrance of the village, quietly waiting for the arrival of this cavalry.

Standing in front of the people were Deng Zhan and Chen Gong.

Twelve dark-clad dragoons stood straight behind them with their swords on their hilts, and the eyes of all the dragoons stared at the cavalry that was rushing towards them without blinking.

Compared with Deng Zhan and the others, who had seen a big battle, the 5,000-strong Yulinwei was not a particularly large team.

But for the villagers standing at the entrance of the village, this team is a behemoth army that can step on everything!

The war horse raised its hooves high, and the heavy hooves of the horses stepped on the ground, making a roar like thunder.

"Phew!" When he arrived at the entrance of the village, the leading general pulled the reins, raised an arm, and stopped the five thousand Yulin guards who were following him.

"General Gao!" As soon as the general reined in his horse and jumped off the horse, Deng Zhan and Chen Gong arched at him with their fists and greeted him.

The one who jumped off the horse was Gao Shun, who led Yulinwei to Huainan first.

Seeing that Deng Zhan and Chen Gong gave him a hand, Gao Shun hurriedly bowed back to the two of them, and said to the two: "The last general is ordered by His Highness to lead Yu Linwei to Huainan to stabilize the border, what information do you have?" ”

"If General Gao comes back a few days later, I'm afraid it's already too late!" Gao Shun asked what information he had, and Chen Gong said to him: "At present, the people on the border of Huainan already hate Yuan Shu to the core, and they are willing to prepare grain and grass for our army to help the army crusade against Yuan Shu!" ”

"The end will already know!" Before leaving Luoyang, Gao Shun had already heard that the people of Huainan were deeply affected by the Huainan army, and when Chen Gong finished speaking, he asked Chen Gong: "I just don't know how many Huainan troops are nearby, what is the combat strength, and who are the generals who are the commanders?" ”

"We've already found out about this matter!" As soon as Gao Shun's question was asked, Deng Zhan said to him: "There are only two thousand Huainan troops nearby. However, the combat power of the Huainan army is really not weak, although Yu Linwei comes, if it is a hard fight, I am afraid there will be some casualties! As for the commander of the army, it is Yuan Yin, the son of Yuan Shu! ”

"General, save me!" After Deng Zhan finished speaking, Gao Shun pinched his chin with his hand, and was thinking about how to break the nearby Huainan Army, when an old man who was waiting at the entrance of the village with Deng Zhan and others suddenly shouted, "Poof" and fell to the ground.

When the old man knelt, all the villagers knelt down, shouting to Gao Shun one by one to ask him to save them.

Seeing the villagers like this, Gao Shun stepped forward, supported the old man who knelt down first, and said to the old man and the villagers: "Boss, please get up, and the villagers should also get up quickly!" ”

Gao Shun helped the old man up, and the villagers stood up one by one.

After getting up, all the villagers' eyes stared at Gao Shun without blinking, and from their eyes, Gao Shun could see that they were full of expectations that the Qin army would be able to defeat the Huainan army.

"What did the Huainan Army do to the villagers?" Looking around at the villagers, Gao Shun asked them.

"Grab food! Homicide! Bad women! As soon as Gao Shun's question was asked, the old man said to him tremblingly: "In the past, there were Huainan troops nearby, but they never entered the village, but they didn't know what was wrong recently, like crazy, grabbing food everywhere, killing people everywhere, as long as they entered the village, women would be abused!" ”

As he spoke, the old man's eyes filled with tears, and he raised his sleeves to wipe his tears.

"Rest assured, folks!" Pressing the hilt of his sword with one hand, Gao Shun looked around at the villagers in front of him and said to them: "His Royal Highness ordered the last general to come to Huainan in order to drive away the thief army that plagued the villagers......"

"We are willing to fight with the army!" Before Gao Shun's words were finished, several young men in a group of villagers shouted.

The Huainan area has been in war all year round, and the local aborigines have suffered a lot of losses, and all dynasties have relocated civilians to this place.

People who have been on the move are not the same as people who have lived in one place for a long time.

Under the long-distance migration, many people died on the road, and those who survived were some people with fierce personalities and a strong desire to survive.

Their descendants have inherited this character of theirs, so most of the people in this area are fierce, and there are often private fights and other incidents.

was bullied by the Huainan Army, and the villagers of many villages also resisted.

However, the villagers' equipment is dilapidated, and there is no discipline at all, let alone a unified command and a well-developed strategy.

Under the suppression of the Huainan army, many villagers who resisted were killed, but in a short period of time, the people on the Huainan border have suffered great losses.

Looking at the several men who strongly asked to fight with the army, Gao Shun smiled slightly and said to them: "Yu Linwei can't recruit troops privately, if you really want to join the Qin army, this general will tell you to wait for a way today!" ”

Knowing that Yu Linwei could not recruit soldiers, many young people in the village showed disappointed expressions on their faces, but when Gao Shun said that he wanted to tell them a way, everyone immediately came to their senses, and looked at Gao Shun without blinking.

"Soon, the main force of the Qin army will come to Huainan!" Looking around at the villagers, Gao Shun said to them: "At that time, if you want to join the Qin army, you can go to the main army camp and take refuge in the main force!" If one of you and others can stand out in the selection in the future, you can enter the three guards of the Qin army! Maybe one day, I can still work with General Deng or so! ”

Hearing Gao Shun's words, the young men in the village were overjoyed, and one of them stood up and said to Gao Shun: "General, the place where the Huainan Army is stationed is only more than 20 miles away from here, and the small people are willing to lead the way for the general!" ”

Turning his head to look at Deng Zhan and Chen Gong on the side, he looked at each other and smiled, Gao Shun said to the young man: "Don't be busy, I will wait for Huainan to enter Huainan and want to come to Huainan Army already know!" If you go now, there will definitely be a fight! Wait for me to plan first today, and it's not too late to go tomorrow! ”

"Today, the general will rest in the village!" Gao Shun said that he would leave tomorrow, and the villagers were happy in their hearts, and the old man who knelt down to him before said to Gao Shun: "Although the village is not big, it can still accommodate thousands of people if you squeeze it." ”

"I'm waiting to occupy the village, where are the old man and the villagers?" The old man invited Yu Linwei to enter the village to rest, and Gao Shun asked him with a smile.

"Folks, it's okay!" Gao Shun asked where they were going, and the old man hurriedly replied: "This evening, the villagers will sleep on the field for the night!" ”

"Yes! We can sleep at the entrance of the village! As soon as the old man finished speaking, many villagers immediately echoed him.

Gao Shun smiled slightly, first pressed his hand twice to the villagers, and waited until the villagers calmed down, then turned around and shouted to the Yulin guards behind him: "The whole army obeys the order and camps on the spot!" No one is allowed to enter the villagers' homes, and they are not allowed to harass the villagers in the slightest! ”

With Gao Shun's order, all the Yulin guards responded in unison, and then jumped off their horses at the same time, and hurriedly set up tents in the open space at the entrance of the village.

Yu Linwei's voice in response was uniform, as if a person was responding.

Even when they dismounted, they all brushed together, and everyone dismounted, and they could only hear the sound of "swish".

Such a neat movement made the villagers present stunned one by one, and those villagers who had previously said that they wanted to defect to the Qin army were even more envious and their eyes lit up, looking at the Yulin guards, they were reluctant to take their eyes off them.

After getting off the horses, the Yulin guards set up tents at the entrance of the village, and soon the tents were set up.

Watching Yu Linwei set up a tent, Gao Shun turned his head and said to the villagers: "The army can set up tents to spend the night, and if the villagers leave their homes, they can only freeze outside." How could General Ben do such a thing? If Your Highness knows, I'm afraid that this general and all the soldiers will not be able to get out of it! ”

"Qin Jun is really a teacher of benevolence and righteousness!" Gao Shun's words moved the old man for a while, he turned around and shouted to the villagers: "Folks, the Qin army is thousands of miles away, and we and other people are crusading against the Huainan army, what should we do?" ”

"Looking for food and grass!" As soon as the old man's words were asked, all the villagers answered.

Hearing the villagers' response, the old man nodded and said to them, "What the villagers said is true! If we don't hand over the grain and grass, how can we be worthy of the army of benevolence and righteousness? ”

"Folks, carry out all the rations hidden at home!" There was a shout from the crowd, and all the villagers ran back to the village.

Seeing that the villagers had all run back to the village, Gao Shun, Deng Zhan, and Chen Gong glanced at each other, and their faces were stunned.

For nearby villages, the Huainan army looted more than once.

After several lootings, there should be no grain in the village, and from the reactions of these villagers, it can be seen that there is not only food in the village, but also a lot of food!

"Don't dare to deceive a few generals!" The villagers all ran home to pick up the stored grain and prepare to hand it over to Yu Linwei, and the old man who stood at the entrance of the village with Deng Zhan and others said to the servants: "Although the thieves came to rob it several times, the villagers buried most of the grain in the ground before they came!" Now that the army wants to crusade against the thief army for the villagers, how can they still hide the grain? ”

"Uncle!" Holding the old man's hand, Gao Shun said to him: "Please tell the villagers that the Qin army collects grain and purchases it at the market price!" In addition, I hope that the villagers will keep enough rations, and the family must not go hungry! ”

"How dare you ask for money from the army when you hand over food to the army!" Gao Shun's words stunned the old man, and he hurriedly replied: "The general only accepts the grain, and he can drive the thief army away, which is already a great kindness to the villagers!" ”
