"Li Zhi, you are a local of Yizhou County, and I hope that Li Zhi will mention a lot on the side of this southern expedition. If there is something inappropriate in Lone's order, Li Zhidang bluntly pointed out that Lone Ding is not to blame. ”

Although Liu Chan did a lot of homework through Zhao's firm in advance, there were some details that were not as good as Li Hui, a local.

Even if the family has moved for many years, the memories of the hometown that I grew up in should be very deep after all.

Moreover, no one in Liu Chan's army can speak the dialects of the various tribes here, which also depends on Li Hui.

For him, Liu Chan didn't know much about him in his previous life, but he was deeply impressed in this life.

This person can also be regarded as "love at first sight" for Lao Liu, when Lao Liu just prepared to attack Liu Zhang from Jiameng Pass, and Li Hui, who was about to go to the state capital, heard about it and decided that Lao Liu would succeed.

State office? Go to his place, Liu Zhang can't be bouncing for a few days, and he is still a fart.

Li Hui immediately turned around on the spot and went to work in reverse.

After Mianzhu saw Lao Liu, he immediately fell into the charm of Lao Liu, and he really bowed his head, and Lao Liu also admired him and asked him to march with the army.

Later, it was this Li Hui who was sent to Hanzhong to contact Ma Chao.

After Lao Liu took Bashu, he appointed Li Hui as the master of Cao Shuzuo and the main bookkeeper, but there were fugitive criminals who falsely accused Li Hui of being a fraud.

The law enforcement officials took down Li Hui on the same day, and it was just a demote anyway.

It's just that Lao Liu can believe this? The fraud wants to be reversed, and the result is that it is not countered until the lord of his own family votes.

Not only did he suspect Li Hui, but also personally cleared his grievances, and directly promoted him to become a driver in Yizhou.

Li Hui was so moved that he was completely dead to Lao Liu since then.

From this incident, Liu Chan saw this person's vision of knowing people, the courage to temporarily abandon the official, the wisdom of persuading Ma Chao, and the most rare loyalty.

This man is not a genius who is not a charioteer.

"The prince is serious, this southern expedition, the minister should try his best to assist the prince and help the prince quell the rebellion and thieves!" Li Hui said in panic.

He had only met the crown prince Liu Chan at a few high-level meetings, but he was also impressed by his young but extraordinary insight and conversation, and there were two battles that could be called a reversal.

Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog son.

The two got along well along the way, and soon arrived at Jiangyang County, the county office, and a military camp had been set up outside the county.

Outside the barracks, 10,000 soldiers who are ready to go out at any time are lining up to greet the crown prince Liu Chan, and even in order to highlight the military appearance, the soldiers are all dressed in strong and stubborn clothes.

"Prince!" Zhang Yi, who had not seen him for a long time, led a group of subordinate officials, as well as lieutenant generals and colonels, and stepped forward quickly, "Minister Jiangyang ordered Zhang Yi to see the prince." ”

"See the Prince!"

Everyone gave a deep salute, and Liu Chan bowed his hand and replied: "You are exempt from courtesy, counterinsurgency is important, and everything is simple." ”

Boom, boom, boom!

Everyone's complexion changed, for no other reason, the Red Star Army behind Liu Chan, nearly 2,000 people marched, and the footsteps seemed very neat.

Looking up, although the soldiers were not wearing armor, the momentum of fighting from blood and fire was undoubtedly revealed.

This kind of military appearance and military discipline, the army of 10,000 people who specially wore armor behind them to greet them was compared to each other.

The astonishing treatment of Prince Liu Chan's pro-army has now spread with that open recruitment of soldiers.

The soldiers of the various units were not only envious, but also more or less unconvinced.

Even if it is the prince's own army, but the difference is too big, and there are many veterans among them who have killed people and seen blood, how can they be worse than the soldiers of the Red Star Army?

deliberately cloaked in stubbornness, all with their heads held high, may not be without the meaning of comparison.

As a result, when they saw it today, the Red Star Army walked two steps to this station, and they were half convinced.

Even if they were allowed to train here for another ten days and half a month, they would not be able to complete such a difficult job.

However, fighting a war is not something that can be won by relying on these alone, after all, it is not in vain, and it has to be really pulled out for a walk.

What kind of soldiers will bring out, these soldiers from Brazil have more or less the taste of Zhang Sanye.

Zhang Yi had seen the old foundation of the Red Star Army at the beginning, and he was even more surprised at this time.

Of course he had heard about the results, but when this team stood in front of him, it was a completely different level of shock.

Zhang Yi sighed: "I haven't seen it for a long time, but the prince has trained his subordinates into such an elite division, and Yi admires it so much." ”

He even felt that the 1,000 county soldiers he had trained were a little too much to handle......

[Zhang Yi's Opinion 60, Army Governing Talent +8×2, Strategy Talent +8×2]

"Hehe, when I came, I saw that the people on both sides of the river were content with production, which shows the stability of Jiangyang County under the rule of Zhang County. And the army was stationed here for many days, getting along with the people, which shows the ability of Zhang County's order. ”

Liu Chan naturally did not forget this young man of the Zhang family, and later he had heard that the Zhang family could fall to his side so quickly, thanks to this person.

"Please follow me into the city first, please."

……

The people moved to the city to talk in detail, and the army entered the barracks to rest for the time being.

"What is the situation ahead now?" Liu Chan got straight to the point.

Zhang Yi was in Jiangyang, which was adjacent to Zhuti County, and the news was naturally much faster than him.

It is impossible for Wang Meng to send a letter on a trivial matter, if he has a mobile phone to send a WeChat message, it is almost the same......

"Governor Deng Du has recruited more than 2,000 soldiers and horses from the Han Yi in Zhuti County, and sent people to lead the army south into Yizhou County...... It's just that not long ago, I heard that the soldiers were defeated in Cunqi County. ”

Cunqi is the first defense node in the northernmost part of Yizhou County, and Deng Fang's more than 2,000 soldiers and horses have not even been able to defeat here.

Zhang Yi said solemnly: "That Yonghong is very cunning, and ordered his brother Yongjie to build a camp in Cunqi County to defend it, and the people around the county seat will be obedient to the people and kind to the army when the time comes, and they will work hard.

"However, when our army wanted to attack the city and pull out the village, and gathered people to harass and attack in the rear, Yongjie seized the opportunity to lead his troops to attack, and defeated Deng Dudu ...... outside Cunma County."

Liu Chan frowned, and his fingers tapped his knees down.

This can be tricky.

"The people of the South actually hate us so far?" Liu Chan looked at Li Hui suspiciously, he hadn't heard Steward Zhao mention this matter.

However, Li Hui was also at a loss: "Before the minister left Nanzhong, he never did this." When I corresponded with my hometown, I had never heard of such a thing. Although the people here can't say that they are personally obedient to the lord of Bashu, they can't talk about hatred. ”

"Is it because Meng Huo and the Yong family have too high a reputation in this place, and they are deeply loved by the people here?" Liu Chan's brows furrowed even tighter.

Li Hui shook his head: "The Yong family hunts slaves every year, beats, scolds and humiliates them at every turn, drives the people to open mines and dig gold, and even kills boys and girls during sacrifices, and draws their bones for musical instruments...... I don't know how many people die at the hands of the Yong family every year, and the people avoid it, so how can they love it? ”

Zhang Yi also said: "Meng is indeed quite famous among many Yiren tribes in Yizhou County. But for the tribes that do not obey their orders, they act no different from the Yong family, and even exceed. ”

Zhang Yi said angrily: "Like this kind of people, if our army doesn't move before attacking the city, those who don't obey will be killed!" We must not repeat the mistakes of Governor Dundu. ”

"Slowly, slowly." Liu Chan looked at Zhang Yi helplessly, "Bogong, what are we waiting for here?" ”

Zhang Yi was stunned: "...... Since the Pingnan rebellion. ”

"That's it, if we slaughter the people for the siege of the city this time, when we get to the next place, the people of Nanzhong will only hate us more and more, how can we kill them all?" Liu Chan said solemnly, "How is this different from Cao Thief?" My father didn't want to. ”

Zhang Yi's face was ashamed, and he arched his hand and said: "The prince is benevolent, but the minister is not careful. ”

In fact, this is not a matter of benevolence or benevolence, Liu Chan is very clear about the power of the people's war.

How could he allow himself to be caught in the vast sea of the people's war?

Wang Mang smashed 300,000 troops into Nanzhong, and it took 3 years to succeed, isn't this the reason?

He didn't have three years and an army of 300,000.

"Since the people of Nanzhong have no hatred for us, and Meng Shu and the Yong family are not good lords of the Ming Dynasty, there must be something strange about this matter." Liu Chan keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Li Hui also nodded, the people of Nanzhong, especially the tribes that make a living from farming, regardless of Han Yi, if they were not persecuted too much, they would not risk their lives to help the war.

Liu Chan said decisively: "Without further ado, Deng Dudu is newly defeated, and my army will go to Zhuti County first to prevent the Yongjia from taking advantage of the situation to counterattack." After seeing Deng Dudu and asking clearly, it is not too late to attack Yizhou County. ”

"Yes!" There were no more objections.

The army has been stationed here for a long time and does not need to rest, and this way is nothing to the officers and soldiers of the Red Star Army, Liu Chan immediately led the army to pull out the camp and set up the village, the army totaled 13,000 people, and set off for Zhuti.

The only difficulty in this battle is that we cannot completely stand on the opposite side of the people of Nanzhong.

I came here in the hope of obtaining troops, resources, and a stable rear, rather than completely turning Nanzhong into scorched earth.

Liu Chan thought that there would be resistance to this matter, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came, before the battle was fought, the most worrying situation happened......
