Chapter 442: The main force is coming

Lu Wang next gave a lesson to the eight general soldiers what it means to love the people like a son, after the nearly three-hour meeting was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, because everyone was eating and discussing in the second half of the meeting until the end did not feel hungry, but the people in Bazhou City were not so good, the dilapidated homes had long been plundered, and they could only rummage around the garbage to try to find something to eat.

At this time, their Guanyin Immortal finally came, and Lu Wang solved their food and clothing problem with a wave of his hand, making the people grateful, and making the eight general soldiers stunned, and the Great Immortal with the granary with him really saw it for the first time!

For the problem of grain and grass for the 130,000 horses and horses of the Eighth General Corps, Lu Wang has already patted his chest and promised that the grain will be covered by himself, but the forage will be solved by yourself, which makes the general soldiers very happy, you must know that the most important thing in marching and fighting is food and grass, and what Daming lacks most now is food!

But there is one thing that still makes them not respond, that is, Lu Wang announced that the grain will not be directly distributed to the battalions, but that he will stay in Hejian City and hand it over to the prefect Yan Yinshao to manage it in a unified manner, that is to say, eat as much as you want, don't try to carry it and buckle, the unspoken rules will not work with me!

The banquet was very rich, not so much that the Eighth General Army was picking up the wind and washing the dust for Rwan, but that Rwan's treat, because he ate and drank all the food, drink, and smoke, and the officers and soldiers just processed the raw materials!

Compared with the daytime meeting, the banquet is much more lively, they are all martial artists, and they are gradually familiar with each other, plus Lu Wang's two glasses of wine and the character of everyone who is a good buddy, the eight general soldiers who were originally very restrained about him quickly became arrogant, eating meat and drinking wine! Smoking packs of cigarettes, playing with lighters, learning from walkie-talkies, the whole scene was enjoyable.

However, they all forgot that the liquor of later generations was very high. Even the drink-loving Lou Wan began to stumble after a round of toasts from them, his voice became louder, and his speech became even more incoherent! But everyone heard what he shouted after he got drunk, you are all heroes of the Ming Dynasty, don't be a pillar of shame! There was even a cry in the voice, and the eight general soldiers who listened to it looked at each other speechlessly! Keep your head down and continue drinking silently!

Lu Wang, who woke up at nine o'clock the next day, lay on the side of the bed and kept beating his head and cursing, he would drink so much in the future, and complained from time to time about why Eleven Lang, who was serving tea and water next to him, didn't stop him from drinking so much last night, and Eleven Lang felt that he was very wronged. Mahan stopped him, and he substituted a lot of wine for him, but he was punched away by Lu Wang's Baba, saying that he had disturbed his drinking pleasure, and he was still aggrieved at the moment!

It is said that the eight general soldiers left early in the morning, some of them directly led the team to set off towards Hejian City, and some returned to the base to rectify and mobilize people, anyway, they all had a timetable in mind. At the latest, it shall not exceed five days, and all soldiers and horses must be in place in the designated position, but anyone who violates the order does not accept any excuses and reasons to wait for being beheaded, which is domineering!

At noon, when Lu Wang had already left Bazhou and Feihe to find Yan Yinshao to calculate how to distribute military rations, it was a different scene in Fucheng County. Although it is now winter, the city is as warm as spring, because the whole city is walking in a sea of fire!

As the commander-in-chief, Abatai fell headlong yesterday, causing the whole army to be disrupted. Fortunately, this thing's body is still quite tough and he didn't burp on this, in fact, Abatai's health was not good, and he died of illness five years later! But now there are still 108,000 miles to return to heaven!

The freezing cold of minus 20 degrees could not stop Abatai's anger. In less than two days, he was ambushed once, and he was calculated to lose nearly 5,000 people and horses twice, but he didn't catch a single hair of his opponent, which is a shame that cannot be forgiven or accepted!

The furious Qing army entered Fucheng and was ready to leave a chicken and dog, but ,,,, except for the corpse of the Ming army that was too late to take away from the city, the mouse did not catch a single one, and the important thing was said three times, this is an empty city, this is an empty city, this is an empty city!

The empty city undoubtedly added fuel to the fire for the enraged Abatai, and when he lost his mind, he ordered the dismemberment of the corpses of the Ming army, and ordered the city to be razed to the ground!

Looking at the fires all over the city, the anger in Abatai's heart finally vented a little bit, but it was only one of 100,000 thousand: "Order that the boundary of Fucheng will not be left with any grass, not a single living mouth, and after three days, it will go south, and Cobusau will lead 10,000 horses to explore the way for the vanguard!" Keep an eye on that Ming army for me! ”

Compared with the uninhabited Fucheng, Jingzhou City is very lively, or crowded! Because of Rwan's strategy of clearing the wilderness, the people of ten miles and eight villages all entered the city nearby or went away, Jingzhou as the largest city nearby, naturally received the most people, in addition to the state There are also refugees from Fucheng County, the city has been crowded in just a few days, and even the main force of the Ming army that has just arrived can not enter the city.

Under the prestige of Lu Wang's steel knife and candy in one hand, Jingzhou and the surrounding yamen have improved their ability to do things a lot, so that his strategy of clearing the field has been implemented concretely and effectively, of course, Jingzhou City is also overcrowded, and the yamen has been busy from Zhizhou to the next one, especially Wang Bing, the lord of Zhizhou, has not closed his eyes for many nights, there are too many refugees in the city, and the things to be arranged and dealt with one after another, and what is even worse is that he still does not dare to slack off on government, for fear that he will not come back and be cut by Lu Wang!

Huang Degong with the mighty army finally rushed to Jingzhou City a day ago, originally thought that he could finally eat and drink a rest, but found that he thought too much, the army could not enter the city at all, not that he was not allowed to enter, but that he could not enter, and he could not be stuffed in! I had no choice but to garrison outside the city!

Garrisoning outside the city is a technical job, and the latest news The Qing army is in Fucheng more than seventy miles away at the moment, which is a blink of an eye, which makes Huang Degong have to act carefully, standing in the city and looking at it from a distance, he immediately ordered the army to advance ten miles to the north, and stationed next to a big river north of Jingzhou!

This river is locally called the Huanhe River, wide enough and deep enough, of course, in the cold season at this time, the ice surface is unimpeded, and there is no danger to defend, but even so, Huang Degong still chose to be stationed here to prevent the Qing army from driving straight to Jingzhou City!

The 70,000 army, camped along the riverbank and densely packed for five miles, is very spectacular, which also makes the people in Jingzhou City feel a little more secure, but at this moment, Huang Degong, who is standing on the head of the city and looking at the heads of the city, is full of worry!

His worries are not superfluous, he has heard a lot of information about the Qing army intermittently for two days, Lu Wang guarded the river and forced the Qing army away, let it ravage Xian County, and then calculated the Qing army once in Fucheng with an empty city, which is bound to provoke the Qing army, and will not let go of Jingzhou easily, there is inevitably a bloody battle here, but his brother has stuffed the surrounding people in, not to mention 200,000 people at the moment, once the city is ruined! Wouldn't it be a little careless!

"Uncle Huang, is it true that I heard that the Qing army is very strong?" Huang Degong is not a person at the head of the city, it is Xu Wuhou who is asking him at this moment, although Huang Degong is Lu Wang's eldest brother, and he and Lu Wang are also brothers, but I don't know why he still likes to call Huang Degong his uncle, and it is difficult to feel as close as Lu Wang!

"The rumors are not bad, otherwise, with your eldest brother's arrogant nature, how could he lure the enemy deeper, if he was bullied, he would have been killed a long time ago!" Huang Degong leisurely swallowed this smoke ring!

I see, the expression on Xu Wuhou's face was very solemn, which was very rare, and his eyes were looking around the city, "There are too many people in the city, there are people everywhere, and it is easy to cause chaos, Uncle Huang, you can send some people to maintain order."

Huang Degong sighed, "Our Ming army is here to kill the enemy, not to take care of these trivial matters, these things are responsible for the local yamen, and there are not nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in the city called Qi something, what kind of chaos can there be!" ”

Xu Wuhou nodded silently: "I seem to have seen Li Yan send people into the city before!" I don't know what to do! ”

"The people in the military affairs department already like to meddle in things, Li Yan took office with three fires, so he naturally wants to dial Mars everywhere, why do you care about him so much, help your brother take care of your Xu Ziying, be careful of being dug up by Lao Zhu's goods!"

"And! He dares! Xu Wuhou pursed his lips, "I said, Uncle Huang, are you sowing discord?" ”

Hahaha, Huang Degong laughed! "My idle egg hurts to provoke you, just to see that you are not serious all day long, remind you, hey, you are really much worse than your brother, Xu Ziying is your family after all, your brother is not there, you should be targeted, what is it to hand it over to Lao Zhuguan!"

"Ahem, cough, Uncle Huang, why do I sound so awkward about what you say, what do you mean that I am much worse than my brother, don't forget that I have also made great contributions!" Xu Wuhou was very dissatisfied, Huang Degong glanced at him, and smiled: "The blind cat is just a dead mouse"

"You can't say that...... Besides, can a red lady be a mouse? Xu Wuhou was about to refute when he was interrupted by the walkie-talkie in Huang Degong's hand: "My lord, the Qing army has been found on the north bank of the Huan River!" ”
