Qu Chen jumped off the boat and said to Su Shuang: "Mr. Su, do you have something to look for me?" ”

Su Shuang nodded and said: "I have been away from home for too long, my heart is like an arrow, now the wolf disaster in Youzhou is connected with the invasion of Xianbei, I don't go back for a day, my relatives and friends at home will worry about it for a day, I plan to rest for a night, go back to Zhongshan early tomorrow morning, and say goodbye to the general first." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Qu Chen understood Su Shuang's mood at this time, and did not hold back, and said with a smile: "That's it... Mr. Su might as well leave a place to stay, and promise to give Mr. a jar of wine, and always know a place. ”

"It's nature."

Su Shuang said his address and invited Qu Chen to be a guest, and Qu Chen happily agreed.

Su Shuang said again: "In distress before, if the general hadn't arrived in time, Su would have died and had no place to be buried." I don't thank you for your kindness, I look at the general's subordinates, and I am willing to give 50 good horses, please don't shirk the general! ”

Qu Chen was overjoyed.

Along the way, he had observed Su Shuangfang's horses, all of which were high-grade war horses, and Qu Chen's heart was itching.

He couldn't wait to ask Su Shuang to buy a horse immediately, but considering that Feiyuling's funds were limited now, and he proposed to buy a horse just after saving others, it would inevitably give people the impression of being coerced by Entu, so he didn't speak. Unexpectedly, Su Shuang took the initiative to give away the horse, and Qu Chen couldn't ask for it.

50 high-grade war horses, even in Youzhou, which is rich in war horses, are worth at least about 200,000 gold according to the market in previous years. Recently, there has been a drought in the Xianbei grassland, the production of war horses has been affected, and the price of the horse market has continued to rise, and the actual value must be much higher than 200,000 gold.

casually gave such a heavy gift, it can be seen that Su Shuang is indeed a powerful horse businessman.

Qu Chen was not hypocritical, and happily accepted the gift and thanked Su Shuang for his generous gift.

"If it weren't for the general's rescue, I'm afraid that none of my more than 300 horses would be able to live, and dozens of lives would have to be put in, and I don't think it's too much to give you 50 horses. But I don't do it alone, I also have a partner named Zhang Shiping, who suddenly fell seriously ill before this departure, and I took people to the north to buy horses alone, and half of these horses belonged to my friend's ......."

Su Shuang called two servants and said to Qu Chen: "They are my domestic servants, and they are all good at raising horses, I will send them to the general together, so that you don't have to find someone to serve the horses." ”

This Zhongshan businessman is indeed very good at being a man.

Qu Chen thanked him again, and couldn't help but feel a little more good for Su Shuang.

After Su Shuang left with his hand, the transferred military general who stayed at the receiving point came over:

"Second General, the territory will send someone over at noon today, and send a message to you to return to the Flying Fish Territory immediately."

"Back to the Flying Fish Collar? Is it to end the operation? ”

"No, I just want you to go back."

Qu Chen put his mind at ease.

The wolf plague and the invasion of Xianbei are the opportunities for the Flying Fish Territory to receive refugees, and after tossing for so long, it has brought in about four or five thousand refugees in total, which is far from enough to ensure the needs of territorial upgrades. Now he wants Qu Chen's class to return to the city, he is reluctant, and now he is asked to go back, it should be that there is something else in the territory.

The Rock Camp had just gone through an expedition and needed to rest for a day or two, so it was just time to go back.

Qu Chen called Wang Di and asked Wang Di to take charge of the affairs of the receiving point for the time being.

The troops need to recuperate, and the fleet has plenty of time to transport the refugees, so there is no need to venture overnight, as was the case at the beginning of the operation, and it is better to wait until tomorrow morning to arrange for the fishermen to take the refugees back to the Flying Fish Territory. In addition, 50 high-quality war horses are a valuable asset, although the thieves in Bohai County were wiped out by the deer army, for the sake of insurance, it is still necessary to send troops to escort them.

Wang Di responded one by one.

Everything was arranged, Qu Chen hurriedly finished his meal, and took a boat back to the territory overnight.

Returning to the Flying Fish Collar, Qu Chen unexpectedly saw that the fish was unwise.

"Big brother, why are you here?"

Yu Buzhi gave Qu Chen a hug and said with a smile: "You guys made such a big move without making a sound, how can I not come and take a look." ”

During this time, Yu Buzhi has been immersed in leveling and rarely returns to the territory, but this is not to say that he is ignorant of the situation in the territory, and the lord's manual can give back a lot of information in time. The Zhulu Leader can get in touch with the lord at any time through the World Legion, and there is no need to worry about Yu Buzhi, but the special territory of Feiyu Ling is lonely in Jizhou, and there are no trustworthy players stationed in Jizhou, in case something happens, there is no way to exchange information in time, which is the focus of Yu Buzhi.

Recently, the population of Flying Fish has continued to grow, and there has been a small loss in the Rock Camp.

Yu Buzhi couldn't rest assured, temporarily interrupted the great cause of leveling, and teleported to the Flying Fish Collar to find out.

Xun Yan sent someone to find Qu Chen back, precisely because the lord came and needed to further understand the situation ahead.

"The recent reception of victims has been unsatisfactory......"

Qu Chen talked about the difficulties encountered by the Zhulu Army in attracting refugees, and talked about it as it was.

The problem now is that there are not many opportunities in the disaster area near the contact point, and the Zhulu army has to continue to go deeper, and it takes too much time to go back and forth on the road. The soldiers could not return to the safe area to rest, they were in danger for a long time, the soldiers were tired, and there were gradually some undeserved casualties when encountering wolves.

In addition, in order to ensure the physical strength of the troops, the amount of food carried by the Zhulu army entering the disaster area should not exceed the maximum amount of five days, and the expedition must be completed within five days. Since the overall speed of the refugees will be reduced after joining, and sometimes it is necessary to provide food to the refugees, the actual effective radius of the troops' operation is actually only a two-day distance from the contact point.

If this problem is not solved, there will be nothing to do after the Deer Army has searched those areas.

This is something that Qu Chen is very unwilling to see.

Not only was he dissatisfied, but Yu Buzhi and Xun Yan were equally unacceptable.

The Flying Fish Collar needs a population.

War is the fastest way to obtain population, and the battle against Dong Zhuo will break out soon, but special territories need to be kept secret and need to keep a low profile, and taking the initiative to fight abroad is the next policy. After the outbreak of the celestial incident, a large number of refugees fled, and the Flying Fish Territory needed to seize this opportunity.

Yu Buzhi said categorically: "Let's move the contact point forward and establish a temporary base in Yuyang County." ”

Xun Yan approved, adding: "Go north along the ditch or the Quanzhou canal, establish a temporary base by the river, and send some troops to garrison it. Our fleet can reach those areas by water, and it is very convenient to transport supplies and pick up refugees. However, to establish a new base in the disaster area, it is necessary to have sufficient defense capabilities, which may consume a lot of materials and take a long time to build......"

"Don't bother!"

Qu Chen said: "There are many abandoned villages in the disaster area, and there are a few abandoned first-class townships, we can find a ready-made base near the waterway, and we can use it with a little repair." ”

Yu Buzhi's eyes lit up: "The abandoned stronghold can be used, but what about someone's stronghold?" If we cooperate with the towns and villages that are defended, directly use the existing bases as temporary bases, send some troops into the towns to help defend them, bring their own water and supplies, and just borrow their places to temporarily resettle the refugees, will they agree? ”

The answer is obvious, and no one with a modicum of sanity will refuse.

Townships and towns are helped to be safer, and the deer army does not need to bear all the responsibility for defense, a win-win model!

The tone is set, the stronghold issue is solved, and all that remains is nothing more than a few details.

With the collective effort, the details were finalized one by one.

The contact point on the south bank of the Qing River was retained, and the Zhulu Army needed a safe transfer point.

In view of the loss of troops in battle and the need for more troops to participate in the operation, the Flying Fish Leader immediately expanded its army!
