Chapter XXVII
The Xiongnu have already moved south, and the hardest hit area is Luoyang.
The reason is very simple, they successfully erected a pontoon bridge in the Mengjin area, and the brigade passed smoothly.
However, in the Puyang and Xingyang areas, the bridge-building operation ended in failure.
On the seventh day of the eighth month, Shao Xun was cutting millet in the field while listening to the report of his younger brother Shao Fan.
As the saying goes, the virtuous do not avoid relatives, and the third brother Shao Fan is also a Taixue degree (nominal).
After several years of study, he was able to write articles that were "very simple in writing" and "basically smooth in semantics", understood common official document formats, and were very meticulous, sensitive, and patient, so he was given the whole job of assassinating the governor.
The assassination of the Governor is not a literal work of spying and catching spies.
That's really what it's about, but it's only part of it.
The assassin governor was also responsible for judicial work, similar to the position of "legal official" in the shogunate in the Tang Dynasty, where the sergeant was dissatisfied with the general and directly sued the shogunate and asked for justice.
However, today's Shao Fan's report is a serious content about spies.
Cousin Liu Fang stood respectfully aside.
He is the history of the left law enforcement order under the account of the assassin governor, and there are more than 100 people under his command, and they are basically the forts selected from Yushanwu.
As the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, and the burgers of Yushanwu did not expect that there would be a day when they would be soldiers and eat food.
Liu Fang led people north to Puyang, and with great effort, he captured two Hun scouts, and after interrogation, he sorted out a document and reported it - in the past, these jobs were done by scouts and rangers in the army, but now that the government has been opened, everything is regularized, and the assassin governor has begun to take over this part of the work.
The assassination of the governor is about the equivalent of a seventh-rank official.
Theoretically speaking, all shogunate positions are not official positions, and have no rank, just as the Tang Dynasty Jiedu made the shogunate all regarded as temporary assignments - purely theoretically, the shogunate envoys were all temporary assignments.
But after opening the government for a long time, each shogunate has a conventional grade, after all, if you want to make money, there must be a standard.
The assassin and the governor collected 360 pieces of grain, 50 horses of silk, 30 catties of cotton, 4 hectares of professional fields, and several people for forced labor, which is the standard of the seventh rank official.
Under the account, there is a member of the history of the left and right law enforcement orders, the ninth product.
In addition, there are a number of ungraded people and more than 200 sergeants.
After the interrogation, the thief told Shi Chao to lead the army north to Changshan to resist Wang Jun. Shileyang soldiers on the river, intending to advance south. They were all ordered by Shile to cross the river to the south to spy on the military situation, to see where the garrison was empty, and to build a pontoon bridge. Shao Fan said.
Shao Xun gathered the cut millet together, then piled it on the ground, and said, "Wang Jun went south?" ”
"Jizhou was seized three counties last year, and Wang Jun was angry and anxious, waving his troops south. Shi Chao is a pseudo-Jizhou assassin history, and went north from Yecheng to defend against the enemy. That's all there is to it. ”
Shao Xun nodded, then looked at his younger brother and said with a smile: "How do you feel about saying so many words in one breath?" ”
Shao Fan's face was stunned and he lowered his head.
Yesterday, Chen Yougen complained to Shao Xun, saying that Shao Fan always likes to sit in the corner and does not speak. In the evening, when Jin Wuxi was dying, he seemed to be hiding in the shadows, but he still peeked at them from time to time, which was creepy.
Shao Xun laughed breathlessly after hearing this.
His younger brother prefers to talk to animals in the stable than to outsiders.
After getting married, it was a little better, but it was limited to people who were more familiar with him, and he didn't care much about people with average relationships - his younger sister-in-law Cao, or introduced by Cao Fu, was his great-granddaughter, from Luoyang.
"Now that the water of the Yellow River is rising, several ferries in Xingyang and Puyang sections that are convenient for crossing the river are occupied, and Shile wants to cross the river, either change places, cross the river from Gaoping and Jibei, or simply go to Henan, otherwise wait slowly." Shao Xun said.
"Li Senjun brought all the horses he could take with him." Shao Fan reminded again.
"I know about it." Shao Xun waved his hand and said, "Actually, there aren't many horses left, alas." ”
Running thousands of miles is cool, and the loss is not small.
Halfway through, Shao Xun saw the old horse lying on the ground with tears in his eyes.
The horses, donkeys and mules he had requisitioned had been returned, and he now had only about 6,000 horses in total, of which only about 2,000 were really "young".
Li Chong was appointed by Shao Xun to take up important responsibilities and be the governor of the Puyang section of the river defense.
He didn't ask for anything else, but only asked to hand over more than 4,000 people from the righteous army to him, and transfer all the old horses of Guangchengze who were fostered in Xingyang and Chenliu.
Shao Xun agreed, and gave him more than 2,000 old horses to be ridden by soldiers to enhance mobility.
There were 20,000 squatting troops stationed at the four major ferries, and Li Chong brought more than 4,000 highly mobile troops to reinforce them everywhere, which caused Shile to collapse as well.
Send a small group of men and horses to cross the river, and you can't break through the camp that occupies the ferry.
was ruthless, collected a number of ferries, and crossed the river more, but was joined by the ferry defenders and reinforcements.
If you build a pontoon bridge directly from the north bank, it can be easily destroyed.
When you're fighting for the ferry, you can't put in too many troops to spread out.
Up to now, Dahu is unable to cross the river directly from Wenshijin, Baimajin, Puyangjin, and Lingjin, and must make a detour upstream or downstream.
Of course, there are also some small ferries in the four major ferries, and if you take it lightly, it is likely that someone will secretly build a pontoon bridge.
This can only be asked to send people to patrol along the river, and as soon as they find it, they will report it immediately, and Li Zhong will immediately lead the army to intercept it.

If the righteous army was not enough, Chen Liu's begging army and Jiyin's begging army (formerly Liang's begging army) sent people to reinforcements.
A total of nearly 40,000 people were mobilized, just to prevent the Yellow River in the Puyang section, the cost was great, but the effect was really good.
The previous nonsense of completely undefended and allowing the Hebei cavalry to move south must not happen again.
In the Xingyang section next door to Puyang, Shao Xun appointed it to Taishou Pei Chun.
He proved himself in the Tiger Prison Pass, Shao Xun did not doubt the use of people, and even with more than 10,000 soldiers from Xuchang Town, which had already belonged to his name, they were stationed in Guancheng, Xinzheng and other places, and they were temporarily under Pei Chun's command.
Now that the territory is bigger, it is no longer possible for him to fight every battle himself.
Before, he asked Jin Zheng to escort the silver spear army into Beijing, which was to exercise his ability.
This month, there is also a boat escort mission, which he plans to hand over to Wang Qi'er.
There may be a final escort before winter, and he will hand it over to Lu Heigou or Zhang Daniu of Luoyang Phase II.
If you do everything yourself, you will only be tired to death, and in the end, you will be unable to continue.
War is not a matter of one person, it is a competition of collective strength.
"Continue to investigate the spies, not only the Huns, but also Luoyang." Shao Xun said in a low voice: "In the direction of Jingzhou, you must also send someone to keep an eye on it." ”
"That's going to give me more people." Shao Fan said.
"Plus for you." Shao Xun looked at the golden corn everywhere and said, "This year I can finally take a break, how many people do you want to add, report to Pei Changshi." ”
"Okay." Shao Fan was relieved.
Seeing that his brother was no longer questioning, he took Liu Fang and left.
Shao Xun handed the scythe to Cai Cheng, then bent down and took the long grass to tie up the corn that had fallen to the ground.
His movements were very skillful, as if he had done countless farm work, which made the people admire him very much.
The bundled millet was piled up on the cart and pulled away one after another.
"Ming Gong." Yu Liang, who joined the army, was waiting on the side of the road, and when he saw Shao Xun coming, he hurriedly saluted.
Yu Liang joined the army, but he was in charge of Cangcao, Hucao, and Thief Cao, and did not participate in the specific implementation of the campaign and tactical planning.
Zhu Cao has its own history of orders, and Cangcao is "the main warehouse grain business", mainly in charge of grain storage.
Hucao is in charge of households, farming, and sacrifices.
The thief Cao is in charge of catching thieves.
To put it bluntly, Yu Liang, who joined the army, is responsible for military logistics.
Judging from the setting of the generals and officials of the Kaifu, in fact, a large number of people have usurped the power of the assassin.
If the assassin does not add a general, or does not hold the festival, it is easy to become a vassal of the governor.
After all, the governor is a modest, and he can kill officials in the name of righteousness.
Shao Xun was the governor of the festival, and he could kill officials below 2,000 stone in wartime. Judging from the current situation, almost half of the year is wartime, and even most of the time is wartime, and it is reasonable and legal for him to kill officials.
Lu Zhi is a bicycle assassin, and he can't fight against Shao Xun, not to mention that people don't have this mind, and he has been doing his best - a bunch of Hebei people and Shu people, do you really want to go against the local military leader in Yuzhou?
"What?" Shao Xun asked.
"The servant checked the files and found that the warehouses in Yuzhou were in disrepair for a long time, and they needed to be repaired with money and grain." Yu Liang said.
"No money." Shao Xun said: "Let's cultivate a few important ones first." ”
"Where to fix the Pavilion?" Yu Liang asked.
"Try to restore the old warehouse along the river." Shao Xun said: "You pack your luggage, take your people, and go south with me." ”
"Okay." Yu Liang immediately responded, and after speaking, he asked again: "Where are you going south?" ”
"Lingjia, Yan Ling!" Shao Xun looked at him with a smile and said.
"Ming Gong, it's really not appropriate to meet your sister before marrying." Yu Liang snorted.
"What do you think, Yuan Gui?" Shao Xun laughed and said, "Follow me along the Weishui and Suiyang Canals, and you may have to meet some people at that time." ”
"Then go to Yanling or Chen County first?"
"Okay, let's go to Chen County first." Shao Xun said: "Everyone is almost here. ”
"The Huns went south to Luoyang, so they didn't care?"
"The Huns go south every year, what can they do?" Shao Xun was dissatisfied: "Hurry up and prepare." ”
"No." Yu Liang left in a hurry.
After Yu Liang left, Shao Xun called Cai Cheng again and said, "You bring all the visitors to Fugou, and I will set off tomorrow to meet." ”
