Chapter 115: Li Wei's Emergency Report
What happened here in Lao Li Tou is not an isolated case, at this time, similar things have happened in the entire Liaobei County among all the displaced people who were "sold" by the local government.
However, with the decisive disposal of the guards, all the displaced troops finally stabilized, and most of them arrived safely at Liaoyun Pass with the food support brought by the guards, and the remaining ones who did not arrive were due to similar injuries or accidents.
The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines.
In today's Liaobei County, such a scene is no longer only a description in poetry, but a scene that really appears in reality.
The sight of the displaced people making everyone silent was silent, they were used to seeing it, and perhaps they were lucky.
Look at the guards roaming around the team on war horses, at least they can still have a bite to eat now, and they will not become nameless white bones everywhere on the roadside, gnawed by wild dogs with red eyes that have eaten human flesh, and even worse, it may not only be those wild animals that eat human flesh.
Why they don't know the road ahead, and what kind of life they will face after going to Yunzhou County, they don't know.
All they know is that if they don't follow the current situation, then they won't have a future.
The displaced people gradually gathered in the Liaoyun Pass, and with the efforts of the guards, there were many more people who were able to come to the Liaoyun Pass this time than before, which made the guard Li Wei couldn't help but be taken aback, and roughly estimated, there were probably nearly five or six hundred thousand people in the crowd below.
With such a large population, they were released from the gate like this, even if Li Wei had already received the permission of the Holy Lord, he couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart.
In the final analysis, he is just a guard general, the grade is only five grades, it seems that it is not small, but he is only a middle-level official, less than the top, more than the bottom.
He has released so many people, and if something happens in the future, those big masters in the court will definitely push the responsibility on their heads.
But don't let it go, the Holy One has given a will again, and it won't work.
"Alas......"
Li Wei sighed, a courtier, should obey orders, even if something really happens, what can he do?
didn't dwell on this point anymore, and after repeated instructions at the bottom, Li Wei still waved his hand and let his subordinates open and close the door.
Five or six hundred thousand people swarmed out along the wide open gate, came to the land of Yunzhou County, and slowly walked in the direction of Yunzhou City, like a colony of black and oppressive ants.
Standing on the wall of the pass, Li Wei squinted at the black-armored guards who were guarding the people around the people and were riding horses back and forth, watching for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really an elite armored cavalry, and I don't know how many of these armored cavalry Yun Wang are under the command?" ”
As a general, he could naturally see that this cavalry of the vassal king's guard, who called himself the Cloud King's Guard, was not an ordinary cavalry.
Don't talk about it, just talk about the black armor that covers the whole body, as well as the skillful riding skills of the cavalry, and the orderly change of formation under the orders of commanders at all levels, you can see that this is definitely an elite cavalry.
And judging from the momentum exuded by these cavalry, Li Wei, who had participated in the battle against the Huns in the northwest, could see that this cavalry had definitely seen blood on the battlefield, and that fierce momentum could not be practiced.
I haven't killed anyone with my own hands, so I can't practice this kind of momentum.
Li Wei began to think, where could there be a battle in Yunzhou County for King Yun to train such a strong soldier?
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Li Wei's brows suddenly furrowed, and he secretly guessed: "Could it be that the Tatars on the steppe are dishonest again?" ”
That's not good news!
Now the southeast of the Great Song Dynasty is facing the invasion of the Japanese invaders, and there are still Tusi in the southwest who are in rebellion, daily rebellion, and the Huns in the northwest run in from time to time to rob and kill, and the Great Song Dynasty is at war on three sides, and the annual large amount of military expenditure is not enough.
In case there is another Tatar in the northeast, then the Great Song Ke will really have to fight on all sides, and whether he can withstand it is a question.
The question is, if the Tatars were careful, then they hadn't heard any information from Yunzhou County asking for help in the past few years?
Could it be that all the Tatars with ideas were blocked by the Cloud King?
Thinking of this, Li Wei affirmed a few points, and there was no other reason to explain it except for this reason, so he immediately wanted to write a note to the emperor to report the matter.
But after thinking about it, he did not act hastily, but sent someone down to invite a battalion commander from the escort army to his house.
If you want to play the matter of Your Majesty, it is better to ask clearly, lest there be an oolong in the end, and he believes that if there is a Tatar invasion on this point, then these people from the vassal king's guard will not hide themselves.
Not long after, a battalion commander from the Seventh Army was invited to Li Wei's mansion.
"Hahahaha, often command, take the liberty of inviting, I hope you don't want to be surprised!"
As soon as they met, Li Wei hurriedly apologized, although the other party was only at the level of a battalion commander, according to the official system of the Great Song Dynasty, it was at most a military attache rank from the eighth rank.
Compared with himself as a five-grade Dingbei general, he is very different.
But the people are the people of the Yunwang Guard, the so-called seven products in front of the prime minister, the generals under the vassal king, or a general under the prince who has the military power of the domain, it is understandable to let himself treat each other politely.
Naturally, the people who came didn't dare to hold it up, no matter what, the other party's official rank was above him, Chang Liang hurriedly arched his hand and saluted: "I've seen General Dingbei below!" I wonder what advice the general has invited to come down to here? Please also make it clear to the general! ”
Now that the escort task is heavy, and there are so many people to escort to Yunzhou City, Chang Liang did not talk to Li Wei politely, and directly asked about his purpose.
Seeing that the other party was so direct, Li Wei did not continue to greet him, but asked bluntly: "The general invited Commander Chang to come this time to ask Commander Chang, has the Tatars in the north invaded Yunzhou County recently?"
I see that you are all veterans of the battlefield, and Yunzhou County can only use you to fight the Tatars in the north, if the Tatars invade, this matter is very big, so I want to ask clearly. ”
Since Zhao Jun dared to send his soldiers to Liaobei County, he naturally thought of the current situation, and Chang Liangdang told the Tatar tribe about the invasion of the Tatar tribe last winter according to what he had explained before.
It's just that when it comes to how to defeat the other party, it is only said that the escort army paid a heavy price, which repelled the other party.
In this way, His Royal Highness King Yun is so eager to gather the people to fill Yunzhou County, because of the lack of troops in Yunzhou County, and facing the threat of Tatars, and the escort army urgently needs to replenish the troops, plus those reasons that were known before, this is such a large-scale recruitment of people out of the customs.
After listening to Chang Liang's narration, Li Wei showed such an expression, no wonder, no wonder!
No wonder King Yun would be so bold to take away so many people from the Guannai despite the suspicion of the imperial court, the situation faced by Yunzhou County was already so critical.
This matter should be reported to His Majesty as soon as possible.
asked Chang Liang about the situation in Yunzhou County, and Chang Liang answered them one by one according to the words he had written down a long time ago, and then left.
And Li Wei immediately unfolded the letter paper and wrote the excerpt after Chang Liang left.
"Qi Qi Sheng, the last general saw that the guards of the Cloud King had all gone through blood and fire, so he guessed that there was something wrong with the Tartars, and he asked the guards to know that this matter was true.
In the winter of last year, the Tatar Hegel led 30,000 people to plunder Yunzhou County, and the Yun King led the guards to fight with it, fortunately with the protection of His Majesty, the soldiers used their lives, and won by luck at a heavy price, and expelled the Tatars from Yunzhou County.
But the Yunwang Guards also lost a lot of soldiers, so now they are not violating the big and wanton recruiting the people, the name is to be afraid of naturalizing the Tatars, but in fact, the Yunzhou army source has been exhausted, I hope that the Holy Guards will prepare as soon as possible, the Tatar move must not be accidental, and there may be a big move in the coming year, I hope that the Holy Lord will be vigilant and deal with it as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for the Cloud King to support it alone...... Yunzhou is in danger...... Dangerous ...... in northern Liaoning"
……
That night, Li Wei's report was sent to Bianjing with an urgent military report of 800 li, and it was delivered to Emperor Zhao Duan of the Song Dynasty on the evening of the fourth day.
Zhao Duan received the twist and turn, and even if he was surprised......
