Chapter 31 Encampment

Nanmu County.

Yang Xian rode on a horse, passing all the way, which showed the damage caused by the crossing of the Yi soldiers.

The ruined houses, the trampled fields, the burning watchtowers, the stinking bones, all the elements converge into a tragic portrait.

Walking on the path in the forest, you can faintly see the low walls of the castle in the distance.

"Lord, ahead is the county seat of Nanqi County, Yongchang!"

Yang An's legs glared, and he rode the horse a few steps forward, and came to Yang Xian's side, but saw Yang Xian's pale face.

"Lord, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, a little dizzy!"

Yang Xian really didn't expect that not only did he not have the talent of horseback riding, but also the skill table in the reflection of the starry sky, and he also did not have the skill of horseback riding.

Among Yang Chun's four righteous sons, only Yang An and Yang Gui followed Yang Xian's side. However, they looked at it with some worry in their eyes.

When you first enter the military, you may indeed get sick. But it is rare to see something as serious as Yang Xian. If it can't be changed, let me ask, Yang Xian will inevitably have to fight with the army in the future, and he can't ride a horse, how can he fight?

"The king of Xiaguan Nanqi County will pay a visit to the prime minister!"

Yongchang is not a small city in the southwest of Yizhou, but compared to cities such as Xiancheng, it is more than a step worse.

The six-foot-high city wall is completely made of earth, and the gate building looks very simple. The entire city consists of only one outer wall with two gates.

Now, the county guard and a group of Shu officials with guards are welcoming Yang Xian and 10,000 troops from Yizhou. Nanqi County is on the border, and the county soldiers have not been abolished for the time being, but the number is still too small compared to the Yi army.

The arrival of this new force has brought hope to the people of Nanqi County.

"Vomit ......"

Yang Xian got off the horse and felt an unstoppable wave surging in his abdomen. Even with last night's dinner, they rushed to the base of the city wall.

"Prime Minister! Prime minister! ”

A group of Yizhou officials immediately greeted them, but they were stopped by Yang Xian.

"I'm fine... Vomit... Let's go back to the county first, and you will have all... Vomit... Tell me about the situation...."

“......”

The county watchman's house.

"Prime Minister, since the invasion of Nanqi by King Samoke, the three counties have become ruins, and tens of thousands of people have been displaced. Xia Guan tried his best to support it, but he was still stretched. ”

After taking a sip of tea, Yang Xian felt that his empty body was much better, listened to Wang Ding's report, and asked, "How many county soldiers are there in the county?" How much grain is there? How many homeless people are there? ”

"There are still 8,000 county soldiers, and there are 25,000 county soldiers in the localities. The number of displaced people in the county town is almost 30,000. There is not much grain in the county treasury, which can barely last for two months. Prime Minister, there are still three counties under the control of the Yi army, should we recover the lost territory first? ”

Wang Ding asked. The so-called local county soldiers are nothing more than soldiers spontaneously formed by the villagers to defend their homeland, and their combat effectiveness is very low. The county soldiers are different, and they belong to a high level of combat effectiveness in the battle sequence of Yizhou. They will form formations, and they have even received the inheritance and cultivation of the first line in the army, and they will use some low-level combat skills. At present, Samoko has almost grabbed it, and the main force has been pushed to the outside of Nanqi County, plus the 10,000 Changce army brought by Yang Xian, it is easy to recover the lost territory.

Yang Xian shook his head, for him, it is not important to regain lost ground, the most important thing is to obtain positive emotions.

Nowadays, there are displaced people from those three counties in all parts of Nanqi County, and if they are left alone, they will not only consume a lot of grain and grass, but they will also be chaotic after a long time.

"It's imperative to get back to production first! Those three counties don't need to worry for the time being. ”

Positive Sentiment from Wang Ding +166

Wang Ding originally thought that Yang Xian's young man must be very happy, but he didn't expect that this young prime minister would be so aware of the overall situation.

"Prime Minister Rende!"

Yang Xian snapped his fingers, and Yang An took out the map and flipped it to the table.

"Yongchang is full of mountains in the east, west and north, Lishui flows through, and the terrain in the south is relatively open. I am going to set up a big village here and garrison 5,000 troops. ”

The place Yang Xian pointed to was open and close to Lishui, surrounded by a large woodland.

"In addition, I will set up eighteen more camps in addition to Dazhai to control the nearby dangerous passes and important passages, as a barrier to the south of Yongchang. Wang Junshou took advantage of this time to step up the resettlement of homeless people, fishing, hunting and farming. Abandoned fields are also planted as soon as possible, how much can be planted? ”

"Thank you to the people of Yongchang on behalf of the lower officials!"

To be able to restore order to an otherwise destroyed town will inevitably lead to positive emotions. Yang Xian thought about it and felt that it was not enough.

"Also, help me find a few alchemy furnaces!"

"Alchemy Furnace?"

The officials of the Yongchang County Government looked at each other, and they didn't know what the prime minister wanted to do?

Night.

After a busy day, the soldiers of the department were stationed outside the city, and Yang An rushed back to the county guard mansion from outside the city, intending to see how much Yang Xian's motion sickness had been alleviated?

The lights in the room were bright, and Yang Xian sat on the couch, his face much better. It is not as pale as the daytime, but it looks a little ruddy.

There was a medicine bowl next to the couch, and the kite, which had disappeared for a few days and was tamed by Yang Xian, now appeared in the house again, standing next to the medicine bowl, and the eagle head looked left and right, as if waiting.

Yang Xian took out a small silk strip from the bamboo tube of the iris, and looked at the content on it, his face was a little serious.

"Master Chun sent information, and finally found out who is behind this scene?"

"Who is it?"

"Wei Wen, the master of the Huan Wu Mansion! A few days ago, he also went to the Dongyang Sect and the Netherworld Prison respectively, wanting to mediate the grievances between the two factions. Unfortunately, it failed in the end! ”

"Lord, this Wei Wen is Huan Wu's henchman. Now that we know that he is behind the scenes, should we deal with him first? His northern expedition to the Central Plains will inevitably reduce a lot of resistance. ”

Yang Xian shook his head and said, "Master Chun is recruiting troops in Xiancheng at the moment, and almost all the veterans in our mansion are by my side. Wei Wen has the support of the Li family, and he is alone, Huan Wu will definitely send a master to protect him. It's not easy for us to solve him. ”

In the final analysis, the forces in the rivers and lakes around Yang Xian at the moment are not enough, and it can even be said to be thin. Otherwise, as long as you kill Wei Wen, it will be like breaking Huan Wu's arm.

Yang Xian took a piece of paper and wrote down the situation here.

"Now what Yizhou finally wants is to recruit Changce sergeants and train them! The rest of the things will be taken care of when we raze the ground here and return to the division. ”

Yang Xian stuffed the paper into the bamboo tube, sealed it, waved his hand, and the kite flapped its wings and flew out of the house.

"Seeing this Wei Wen stirring up the wind and rain here, but we have nothing to do, it's really infuriating."

"Not necessarily!" Yang Xian smiled, he knew very well that for Huan Wu, the most important thing now was Youzhou, it was Youning Iron Cavalry, "Yang Fu should be about to arrive in Youzhou!" ”
