Chapter Twenty-Four: The Northerners!
A cold light flashed in Sun Cheng's eyes, and he suddenly turned to stare at the woman, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he wanted to cut the woman with a thousand knives, "Poisonous woman, exterminate human nature, pigs and dogs are not as good, and they are vain!" ”
Sun Cheng's eyes became more and more murderous, and the spear in his hand swept and hit the woman in the abdomen heavily!
The crisp sound of bones breaking sounded, the woman snorted, the corners of her mouth spilled a lot of blood again, and her beautiful face was tightly wrinkled together, full of pain.
At the same time, Chu Jiang rushed over with Guo Qing Shiqing, as well as a newly summoned sword and shield hand, and five archers, before the sound of fighting in the town, it alarmed Guo Qing, a master of the innate ninefold, afraid of an accident, Chu Jiang immediately brought a group of people to support, but looking at the situation in front of him, the people in the rivers and lakes really couldn't make any waves.
Seeing Sun Cheng's movements from a distance, Chu Jiang's eyes moved slightly, and he directly ignored this action and asked.
"Got it out?"
"Your Excellency!" Sun Cheng bowed slightly at Chu Jiang.
"These are all jumped out by themselves, sixteen late acquired martial artists, two early congenital martial artists, and one late congenital martial artist, except for the few captured, the rest, all killed. The town is still being searched to make sure nothing goes wrong! ”
"They are hiding in A-shaped Street, T-shaped Alley."
After a pause, Sun Cheng said in a low voice: "T-shaped alley, twenty households, one hundred and forty-eight people, none of them are alive!" ”
Chu Jiang's face instantly became ugly, his eyes looked at the few people in front of him, and after half a sound, he spoke: "The barbarians are still only young and strong, and the harm of the barbarians is especially better than the barbarians, and the others are vain!" ”
"Soft-hearted, weak-hearted, successful and defeated, there is nothing to say, give me a good time!" The woman recovered a little, gritted her teeth and said to Chu Jiang.
Chu Jiang waved his hand and said, "Pull it down, you can do it yourself, take a breath, just be able to speak, and after half an hour, bring it to my tent." ”
"Yes!"
The crowd immediately took a few people down.
Chu Jiang sighed faintly, originally wondering how they stayed in the military town, in the military town, there are ten households on the left and right of an alley, it is a whole, how many people are in it, everyone knows that once outsiders come, they will definitely be found out.
But I didn't expect that these Jianghu people from the rear of Dayan would be so ruthless and kill these twenty families!
Chu Jiang personally went to the T-shaped alley to take a look, and the surrounding young men were sorting out the corpses, and rows of corpses were neatly arranged on the street, men, women, and children, all among them.
"Lord Battalion Commander!"
"I've seen the battalion captain!"
Seeing Chu Jiang coming, the surrounding crowd greeted one after another and made way for Chu Jiang.
"The people who were killed by the Jianghu people, regardless of men, women, and children, all reported their deaths in the defense of the city, and all the bereavement benefits were distributed to the families in the rear." Chu Jiang looked at the corpses in front of him and said.
"All the folks who died in the old and decrepit generations, thank you for the great kindness of the battalion captain!" Around, a one-armed old man saluted respectfully to Chu Jiang.
"Lord Battalion Commander, be merciful!" All the people and young people spoke one after another.
In fact, these people in the three-hundred-mile fortress in the north still have relatives in the south. These people, in fact, could not survive in the south, but there were still men in the family, and they were moved to the military town by the government.
There is danger in the fortress, and the ancients are not fools, so naturally they will not move their families to the fortress, but often keep the eldest son's family to support the elderly, and move the second son and the third son's family to the fortress who can't survive. Even if the whole family of these people is killed, there are relatives in the south.
These people served as young men in the military town during the war, helping the soldiers and doing logistics work, and in peacetime, they planted the fields around the military town.
Yes, the 300-mile fortress in the north actually has fields, but the number is much less than in the south, and the yield is not high, but it is better than nothing.
Moreover, speaking of these fields, there is also a past, these fields are actually a transaction between Princess Beiliang and the barbarians.
The entire Dayan and the Northern Barbarians, when it comes to the northern realm, there are two people who can't be avoided, one is the king of Beiliang, who has cultivated to the Yuangang realm, is strong, brave and good at fighting, and is the number one master in the north!
The second is the princess of Beiliang, the world's most famous female Zhuge who is thoughtful and resourceful, and has assisted the king of Beiliang to lay the current achievements.
The two of them are known as the heroes in Dayan, and the other is known as the Zhiguan Northern Frontier, which is the two heroes in the north.
And the fields in this three-hundred-mile military fortress are the masterpieces of Princess Beiliang, originally the three-hundred-mile fortress was mainly to hinder the barbarians, and the imperial court had no intention of reclaiming wasteland.
However, a group of people migrated from the south to march into the town, could not be idle, reclaimed farmland outside the military town, and harvested a lot of grain, for a time, the three hundred miles of fortresses have followed suit, no one will dislike the food, the three armies in the north are the big consumers of food.
However, the good times did not last long, and the Northern Barbarian cavalry discovered these fields, so a large number of cavalry swarmed in, either snatched by the barbarians, or trampled by a large number of cavalry, and there was no harvest.
Over time, no one planted it, but later the princess of Beiliang talked to the king of the Northern Barbarian Xiu Tu once, and from then on, the residents of the military town went out to plant food, and the Northern Barbarians would not attack.
When the autumn harvest was almost halfway through, the Northern Barbarian cavalry swarmed down and snatched the rest back to the Northern Barbarians.
In this way, the food problem of the three armies in the north was greatly alleviated, at least not all of them were sent from the rear, and it also greatly eased the offensive of the northern barbarians.
In the past, the Northern Barbarians would not only consume some old people, but even young and middle-aged people, and they would attack the fortress with all their might, and they were bound to grab food to go back, and in those years, the casualty rate of the soldiers in the north was more than twice as high as it is now.
Therefore, as soon as Princess Beiliang's plan came out, everyone readily agreed, no one accused Princess Beiliang of fornicating with the Northern Barbarians, and everyone tacitly acquiesced that the grain was snatched away by the barbarians.
Besides, there are policies and countermeasures, saying that it is fifty percent, and when the harvest is rushed, it is completely possible to collect more in the remaining half, weed the dense crops, and when it is harvested, Dayan gets more than sixty percent of the grain.
Both sides profited, but Dayan profited more than Beiman, that is victory!
The people in the three northern states fortresses basically know a little about this, but they all collectively choose to pretend to be confused, and no one will not care about their own vital interests.
Speaking of which, Dayan's situation has not been good in recent years, and now the proportion of self-produced grain in the northern fortress is getting higher and higher, if there is no such food, I am afraid that with the situation of Dayan, the three armies in the north have begun to starve!
