Chapter 12: Marching into Suizhou

In the hall of the lords, the generals gathered.

I saw Wang Shen take the initiative to stand up and report: "Lord Qiyu, this time the humble post is to search eastward, and the Zhongxiang rebel army has begun to appear in Suizhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Xiangyang Mansion. ”

Zhou Kang then reported, "The situation in Yingzhou is serious, and a large number of Zhongxiang rebel armies have gathered and merged with each other to form a team of more than 10,000 people, and the leader is an uprising general named Jin Cong. ”

"Tangzhou, Dengzhou, Xinyang, and Xiangfan have not appeared in the Zhongxiang rebel army for the time being." High positions report truthfully.

Xiangyang Prefecture has jurisdiction over six counties, Tangzhou, Dengzhou, Suizhou, Yingzhou, Xinyang, and Xiangfan.

Among the six counties, Tangzhou, Dengzhou, Xinyang, and Xiangfan are all located north of the Yangtze River.

The source of the Zhongxiang uprising was Dongting Lake.

Dongting Lake is under the jurisdiction of Gangneung Province.

Nowadays, the entire territory of Gangneung Province is full of Zhongxiang rebel army, they kill people and set fires, plunder property and fields, and the lords of Gangneung Province are fighting with Zhongxiang rebel army, and they have long been in chaos.

Jiangling Prefecture has jurisdiction over five counties, governing Jiangling, Jingzhou, Zhijiang, Qianjiang, Jingmen, and Dangyang.

As for the Zhongxiang rebel army in other provinces, it is randomly refreshed by the system, and the real source point is still in Gangneung Mansion.

Lin Yuan was silent for a moment, and then he had already made a decision.

"We are so little bit of family background, we want to save a little fight, the Zhongxiang rebel army of 10,000 people, we can't deal with it for the time being, or start with the extermination of thousands of people, I decide, the army will officially go to Suizhou tomorrow, and first exterminate the rebel army in Suizhou."

"Lord, Suizhou is located in the east of Xiangyang City, three hundred miles away from Malan Mountain, after the army goes out, I am afraid that it will be difficult to replenish the grain and grass, and if the lord takes away all the grain and grass in the village, most of the villagers in the village will probably starve to death." Cao Ru walked out with some trembling.

Malan Village was already extremely short of food, and now Lin Yuan wants to lead the army on an expedition, which is tantamount to making the food situation in the village worse.

"Cao Ru, don't worry, my expedition this time is to raise war with war." Lin Yuan smiled lightly.

On the territory of Suizhou, there are at least a few thousand lords.

Lin came from afar to exterminate the Zhongxiang rebel army for them, so they should be allowed to support grain and grass.

Of course, if these people were unwilling, Lin Yuan wouldn't mind destroying them together.

At this stage, I am afraid that there is no lord's army that is more elite than the army in Lin Yuan's hands.

"After I leave, Cao Ru, you have to actively hoard resources, and send more people to actively open up commerce and trade with Xiangyang Mansion."

……

Early the next morning, an army of 500 men had been assembled.

On this expedition, Lin Yuan can be regarded as pouring out, if someone raids the village halfway, it will be a real hiccup.

Fortunately, the 100 cavalry sent by Niu Gao to escort military supplies have not yet returned to the camp, and with them, they should be able to deter some Xiaoxiao.

The army marched towards Suizhou.

Along the way, the army was neatly equipped, which attracted the eyes of many lords along the way, and some lords even took photos and posted them on the Internet.

[Title: An elite army appeared in Xiangyang Mansion, and the soldiers pointed directly at Suizhou! 】

1st Floor [Little Pig] (Jiankang Mansion): I'll go, a whole army is equipped with silver weapons, this is the NPC army.

2nd Floor [Smiling Face] (Jingjiang Mansion): It's the player's!

3rd Floor [Su Qin Fujian] (Xingyuan Mansion): At this stage, can lord players create such an army?

4th Floor [Lu Family Prince] (Daimyo's Mansion): Can't ......

5th Floor [Ximen Daguanren] (Xingyuan Mansion): Didn't you find that the player's general's weapon, the phoenix wings and gold hammer, isn't this Yuwen Chengdu?

6th Floor [Badao] (Jingjiang Mansion): It's really ......

……

87th Floor [Lu Family Prince] (Daimyo's Mansion): There is such an elite army, Suizhou is at your fingertips......

88th Floor [Dragon Soul Dashao] (Xiangyang Mansion): Hehe, with me Li in Suizhou, outsiders don't want to take a step......

89th Floor [War Maniac] (Xiangyang Mansion): Come on, my big knife is already hungry and thirsty.

……

437th Floor [Jingchu Warrior] (Xiangyang Mansion): The lord of Suizhou, hurry up and unite!

……

In the end, some of the big lords of Suizhou actually wanted to form an alliance to resist Lin Yuan's invasion.

In this regard, Lin Yuan should only turn a deaf ear.

And on the morning of the second day, the army finally arrived at the border of Suizhou.

"Report! A village was found 10 miles ahead. ”

Lin Yuan was just about to rest his horse when he heard a report from Tanmalai.

"How many people are there in the village? How many soldiers are there? ”

"There are only about 600 people in the village, and there are only about 80 soldiers in the village, all of whom are militiamen."

"General Yuwen, you lead the heavy cavalry first and quickly capture this village."

"Command!"

Yuwen Chengdu slapped his horse's back, led 40 heavy cavalry, and went straight to the front, the iron hooves rumbled, and even the ground trembled.

When Lin Yuan led the infantry to catch up, the entire village had already been taken by Yuwen Chengdu.

This village, called Wushan Village, is a second-class village.

The lord's name is Wu Wenshan, but because he shouted Yuwen Chengdu before, he has been shot by the latter with an arrow from a hundred steps.

After Wu Wenshan's death, Wushan Village surrendered.

Lin Yuan led the army and stationed directly in the village.

After a lord captures a village, there are three modes, which are capture, destroy, and transfer.

Lin Yuan led the army to Suizhou, and he still needed a bridgehead, and they only brought 7 days of grain and grass, and they needed a territory to serve as a logistics supply for the army.

Without hesitation, Lin Yuan chose the occupation mode.

"Ding! System Prompt: Congratulations, you have captured a territory. ”

Lin Yuan put his hand on the core stone tablet and read the village information.

[Territory]: Wushan Village (second-class village)

[Lord]: Lin Yuan

[Affiliation]: Southern Song Dynasty Jinghu Road Xiangyang Mansion Suizhou

[Specialty]: None

[Population]: 659/1000

[People's Heart]: 54

[Existing buildings]: thatched huts, wooden houses, second-class blacksmith shops, second-class grocery stores, second-class lumber quarries, second-level mining farms, second-level militia battalions, second-level medical halls, second-level carpenter shops, second-level smelters, land temples......

It is clear that this is a typical farmland village.

The previous lord blindly developed agriculture and developed 150 acres of fertile land, only waiting for the spring sowing of the next year, and now he can only cheap Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan found that this village was not far from a third-level village.

"Get me in!"

Just as he was thinking about how to develop the village in the future, Yuwen Chengdu led two small soldiers and escorted a white-faced civil official over.

"Lord, this person tried to escape, but I captured him."

"Oh?" Lin Yuan raised his head and saw the white-faced civil official, a hint of discoloration flashed on his face.

"Let go of me!" The white-faced civil official, after seeing Lin Yuan, did not have the slightest cowardice, but his eyes were full of provocation, "If you want to kill, you have to be killed, listen to it!" ”

Lin Yuan waved his hand and motioned for the soldier to let go of this person.

"Who is Mr. Dare to ask?"

"Humph!" The white-faced civil official just snorted coldly and tilted his head to the side.

Lin Yuan called Yuwen Chengdu to his side and asked, "Who is he?" ”

"My lord, he is the head of the village."

Lin Yuan was immediately relieved, it turned out to be a hero recruited by the former lord Wu Wenshan, no wonder he had a bit of a temperament.

"Sir, don't worry, after you take refuge in me, I will still appoint you as the ruler!"

"Phew! Who wants to be your ruler! Unexpectedly, before Lin Yuan's words were finished, he was slapped by the white-faced civil official.

"Bold!" Yuwen Chengdu was furious, the sword on his waist had been drawn, and the cold light was overflowing.

"Chengdu is slow!"

Lin Yuan hurriedly stopped him.

Generally, most of the people with eccentric temperaments like this are heroes with special skills, and maybe the person in front of them is a historical celebrity.

"Come on, please go down, Mr. will entertain you!"

This person didn't want to take refuge in himself, so he asked him to calm down below, Lin Yuan still had important things to do.

"Chengdu, you immediately lead the heavy cavalry to sweep all the villages within a radius of 50 miles, and transfer all the population, livestock, money and grain to Wushan Village."

"My lord, do you want this?" Yuwen Chengdu's eyes lit up.

"That's right, I want to upgrade Wushan Village to a town or even a county seat in the shortest possible time, so that we can gain a firm foothold in the boundary of Suizhou, like a nail, deeply rooted in."

"The last general commands!"

Yuwen Chengdu left directly, and it didn't take long for a heavy cavalry of 40 people to go straight to the east.

"Takakura, Zhou Kang, Wang Shen, the three of you will attack quickly and cooperate with General Yuwen's actions."

"Command!"

All three scouts were dispatched.

Only then did Lin Yuan free his hands and began to command the villagers of Wushan Village to mine, engage in timber, and build city fortifications.

The fortifications of Wushan Village have only wooden fences so far, so how can this be done.

The first task that Lin Yuan took over was to build the city wall.

Moreover, Wushan Village is surrounded by empty plains on all sides, and there is no danger to defend at all, which is a typical farmland village, which makes Lin Yuan feel even more necessary to build a city wall.

A large amount of manpower is invested in the construction, wood and stone, constantly consumed.

At the same time, the heavy cavalry led by Yuwen Chengdu was also attacking rapidly.

"Everyone moved to Wushan Village!"

Xicao Village, 13 miles away from Wushan Village, had just been captured, and the lord chose to surrender.

Yuwen Chengdu directly chose the destruction mode, and the entire village was reduced to ruins, so that everyone brought money, food, and materials to move to Wushan Village, and there were about 1,000 people in Haohao Tangtang.

In the afternoon, the group arrived in Wushan Village.

"My lord, the heavy cavalry escorted back and forth, wasting a lot of time." Yuwen Chengdu reminded.

"Well, I know, let Yang Qin lead a hundred-strong heavy infantry to follow you, and be responsible for escorting."

"Yes!"

Yuwen Chengdu set off again, this time to the north.

Lin Yuan stayed in the village and received the villagers of Xicao Village.
