Chapter 179: Red Flag
At the Baimajin Ferry in Dongjun, hundreds of displaced people had just arrived on the south bank from the north shore to the south bank, and they were met by a soldier in leather armor.
A leader wearing black iron armor pressed the ring head knife, the narrow scar on his face looked particularly hideous, pointed to the wet crowd and said: "We are the sergeants under the account of Yanzhou Liu Envoy, I was ordered to come to greet you, don't panic, there is porridge and water five miles ahead, you can rest for a while, and then go south to the imperial court." β
When the homeless people heard that there was such a good thing, they were overjoyed, "Thank you Liu Yuanjun!" β
The Liu family has a good reputation in the north and south of the Yellow River, and Liu Qizhi Yanzhou has a good reputation, and the displaced people do not doubt him.
Less than five miles away, in a valley, there was indeed porridge and water, and the homeless people dragged their families south, and there were only a few wheat cakes in their belongings.
There were other homeless people in the valley who were resting, and nearly 2,000 people were huddled together, reciting Liu Qi's kindness without a word.
"Mi Dian Army, this batch of people is almost there, and they can be sent back." A soldier next to him said.
The general, who had a scar on his face, nodded.
However, at this moment, a soldier rushed over and said in a low voice: "The Zhao army of White Horse City found us, and eight hundred horsemen were coming, and we were less than ten miles together!" β
The surrounding soldiers were stunned for a moment, and they all looked at Mi Dianjun.
The other party is a foot rider, they are less than ten miles together, and they are carrying homeless people, so it is difficult to get rid of them.
Mi Dianjun snorted lightly, "They rode eight hundred paces, and our White Horse Southern Army had more than five hundred and thirty people, which was enough to fight, pass the order, hang out the black cloud red flag, and see if they ate the bear's heart leopard gall!" β
This force is the Southern Army that the White Horse Beggars have reformed all over.
Mi Dian's military name is Mi Jin, he is Li Yue's personal seal of the Black Cloud General, following Li Yue all the way out of the Black Cloud Mountain, the scene of the sword mountain and the sea of blood has been seen, and now he encounters this crisis, which is nothing in his eyes.
After being reorganized into the Southern Army, the Begging Army has long since changed from what it used to be.
Equipped with leather armor and well-trained, Zhao Jun is not false at all.
The cities of the counties of Yanzhou belonged to the Zhao army, but outside the city, they belonged to the southern army, and the well water on both sides did not interfere with the river water.
However, the displaced people went south, and Dongjun was in the south of the big river, becoming the first choice for refugees to cross the river.
In a few moments, a blood-red black cloud flag rose in the valley.
The 37 southern armies of the Yanzhou territory all have such a banner, the flag is in the people, the flag is not there, and the establishment is canceled.
It has always been regarded as a treasure by the soldiers and Simas.
Mi Jin led the soldiers to arrange the antlers at the mouth of the valley, and after the antlers, the spears were like teeth.
The black cloud and red flag behind it lifted the spirits of all the southern soldiers present, who were scattered in the past, but now they are all united under this banner.
After killing the enemy, with their military exploits, they can go to Chenliu to exchange for land, which makes the soldiers' hearts full of expectations.
Although the wilderness is full of barren fields, there are no land deeds, and no matter how fertile these barren fields are, they are also owned by the surrounding government and the powerful.
When the fields are barren, no one cares, but once they plough and the crops are ripe, people from the government come to their door......
Phewβ
A few war horses neighed, and Zhao Jun arrived in a blink of an eye.
However, when they saw the black clouds and red flags in the valley, they didn't dare to move.
Liu Qi is the assassin of Yanzhou, but Li Yue is the pastor of Yanzhou, who beheaded Liang Qian in a battle, and then killed and captured Shi Bin, the king of Yanzhou, and everyone in Yanzhou was shocked.
Although Li Yue's power was limited to the three counties of Xingyang, Chenliu, and Jiyin, his reputation became more and more prosperous as time passed.
The Zhao army of Yanzhou fought against Yanzhou Mu, and naturally had relatives.
"Come and die!" After the antlers, one of the Confederate soldiers roared wildly.
The Zhao army looked at the red flag in the valley, and then looked at these bloodthirsty southern troops, turned around and left.
"Eggless coward!" The southern army scolded in the back and laughed wildly.
The people in the valley were a little confused, but looking at the raised black cloud red flag, someone finally recognized, "You, you are not Liu Yuanjun's people?" β
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the homeless people picked up their packages and were about to leave.
Unexpectedly, he shouted, "Those who dare to move are beheaded!" β
Mi Jin raised his knife to block the outcasts, the scars on his face made him look even more vicious, and the six or seven ironclad axemen behind him were fierce.
The black cloud will kill people on the battlefield, and a heavy evil aura has gathered on its body, and once it explodes, it is extremely terrifying.
The displaced people were all shaken.
"If you want to live, follow so-and-so, if you don't want to live, report your name!"
"You, you......"
The homeless people were divided, but in the end they bowed their heads and did not dare to resist.
More than 2,000 people were driven south.
Along the way, the southern army had already set up camping places, and the white horse was not far from Chenliu, and in two or three days, it entered the boundary of Fengqiu.
The entire Fengqiu has long been crowded, gathering displaced people from all over the north.
There are also more than a dozen bloody human heads hanging on the city walls, which are said to be those who escaped and were captured, as well as those who bewitched the homeless people to cause rebellion.
Several hundred-man armoured soldiers patrolled the crowd with knives, dividing the homeless.
Compared with the southern army that sent them, these soldiers were even more fierce, and their eyes were as if they were looking at the dead.
There were originally many strong people among the southbound people, but now none of them dared to move.
After a while, people from the Black Cloud Army came to lead.
After walking for half a day, there are rows of improvised thatched huts, although they are slightly dilapidated, but they are also a place to stay.
In this way, the displaced people were resettled in the territory of Chenliu.
Fengqiu is just a microcosm, there are more displaced people gathered in Chengyang, Shan Father and other places in the east, and one by one people are carrying black cloud red flags from Dongping Kingdom and Lu County to Chenliu.
And the Zhao Jun cities along the way did not dare to move.
At the beginning of this great migration, Li Yue released his words as Yanzhou Mu, "If something happens to the displaced people under the Black Cloud Red Banner on whose territory, whose city will be slaughtered by the Black Cloud Army in retaliation." β
The Black Cloud Army had long been notorious, and the people and horses from all over Yanzhou did not dare to move, and they shrank in the city, watching the displaced people go west.
Displaced people are a huge burden for them, after all, there are tens of thousands of more mouths to eat.
The Zhao army of the counties thought about plundering, but never thought of taking them in.
Liu Qi of Dongjun also led five or six thousand steps out of the city to do something, but as soon as he left the city, there were traces of the Black Cloud Cavalry in all directions, and he could only retreat to Yuncheng again.
The continuous migration of the population has given the ravaged Chen Liu a glimmer of life.
Li Yueren was in Chen Liucheng, and all kinds of news from the scouts were sent like snowflakes.
With Heiyun as the backbone, the southern army was set up, and within ten days, there were 70,000 or 80,000 displaced people who were sent back to Chenliu for resettlement.
There is also bad news, the displaced people know that the Black Cloud Army is arresting people in Yanzhou, so they do not pass through Yanzhou, but go south from Qingzhou.
The scout battalion had already followed, bringing back as many people as possible, but allowing many fish to slip through the net, the forces of Heiyun County had just gained a foothold in Yanzhou, and had not yet penetrated into Qingzhou.
"General, Sikong 20,000 cavalry has arrived in Lu County!" Scout reports.
