Chapter 69 The march to the Southern Barbarians

Waiting for Huangfuyue to board the ferry, Yun Feiyu took the guards back to the barracks, just entered the camp, Yun Feiyu was frowning and thinking that the two senior sisters had no news so far, would there be any accidents on the road, so he saw the battalion captain Ji Haichen hurriedly came over and said: "General, the king of Liucheng County will abide by the request to see!"

Yun Feiyu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Wang Keshou, what is he doing here?"

Ji Haichen replied respectfully: "It seems that it is for the army to cross the river, because the general you went out of the camp to inspect, Lord Wang has been waiting in the military tent under his command for almost an hour!"

Yun Feiyu knew that Wang Keshou was for official business, and he groaned slightly, and ordered: "Take him to the big tent to see me!" Ji Haichen received the order to take Wang Keshou, Yun Feiyu took his personal guards back to the big tent of the Chinese army, and did not change his clothes, he sat behind the military case in civilian clothes, and after a while, Ji Haichen brought an official into the tent, this official was very peaceful, and after entering the tent, he looked cautious, kept his head down, waited for Ji Haichen to give the order, and hurriedly bowed forward to salute, bowed his head and said: "Xiaguan Liucheng County Shouwang Shou Shou Shou to meet General Yun!"

Leaning on the back chair casually, Yun Feiyu gently waved his hand to let Ji Haichen withdraw from the big tent, and waited for Ji Haichen to retreat, then he looked indifferently at Wang Keshou below and said: "Lord Wang is so polite! The camp is simple, there are no extra chairs and stools, I have wronged Lord Wang!"

According to the officialdom rank of the Zhou State, Yun Feiyu is the commander of the first army of the Tiger Camp Army is the third rank of the military attaché, and Wang Keshou is the military attache of the first city of Liucheng, and the official is crushed to death at the first level, and Yun Feiyu is still a concubine and holds the real power in the army, Wang Keshou does not dare to feel how much grievance he is standing and replying, and hurriedly replied: "The general's words are serious, it is the subordinates' poor preparation that makes the general's camp a little simple, if the general does not dislike it, the subordinate will immediately prepare a batch of good Nanmu copywriting tables and chairs for the general!"

Squinting slightly, Yun Feiyu carefully looked at this process, and found that he looked ordinary, although he was wearing an official robe and hat, but he did not have an official appearance, giving people the impression of an honest businessman, that is, the kind of conscientious businessman who pays attention to harmony and makes money, and would rather suffer losses than offend guests, remembering that Huangfu Yue called him a smiling Buddha, Yun Feiyu was even more curious, how could such a person make hundreds of thousands of barbarians frightened?

In fact, from ancient times to the present, officials are deceived and concealed, he Wang Ke Shou is like a gentle and harmless businessman in front of Yun Feiyu, that is, he has to put away his fangs and claws, and he can only pat his horse and flatter Yun Feiyu, who is higher than him, but in the face of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Nanban, he has the power of life and death, and his nature is revealed as he wants, and at that time he was the smiling Yama that Huangfu Yue usually knows!

Because of Wang Ke's affairs, Yun Feiyu has no good impression of this Wang Ke, just from Wang Ke's ability to publicize and kill people on the street without any scruples, you can guess that his father Wang Ke is definitely not a fair and honest good official, but he doesn't stretch out his hand and don't hit the smiling person, Yun Feiyu can't reprimand him for no reason, but Yun Feiyu is also extremely disgusted with his officialdom to flatter, with a wave of his hand, Yun Feiyu excused himself and said: "I don't bother Lord Wang about this matter, you still talk about the situation of the barbarian turmoil, and how are the preparations for crossing the river?"

It seems that this horse master is eager to make military achievements, Wang Keshou lowered his head and rolled his eyes slightly, and he couldn't help but think about how to make the horse master Yun Feiyu satisfied, and replied in his mouth: " There are a total of eight tribes in the Nanban, of which the Baiyi clan is the closest to Liucheng, distributed in the Fangshan area, and our dynasty has more trade and is relatively civilized, and is also the first to submit to our dynasty, and the other seven tribes are far away, scattered in the deep mountains and old forests further south of Fangshan, most of these barbarians are ignorant and fierce, and have been constantly invading Baiyi and the ordinary people on the front line of my Liucheng for a long time, although our dynasty has sent troops to deter many times, but you and other Diao people are still stubborn and unrepentant, and from time to time go out of the mountains to loot, especially in the recent period has become more and more rampant, there are times when the Liuhua River attacks the inner belly of our Central Plains, and the Liucheng guards have limited strength and can only stubbornly attack, so the lower officials waited for this to ask the imperial court to send troops to quell the chaos!"

Yun Feiyu knocked on the case with his hand, and let out a low voice, he didn't say much about Wang Ke's statement, just looked at him and asked, "How many troops does the Baiyi clan have?"

Wang Keshou pondered for a while, silently calculated in his heart, and replied truthfully: "The total population of the Baiyi clan is about 100,000, of which two to three percent are young and strong men, excluding production to support the family, the combat strength is about 2,000, while the other seven clans are of different sizes, with a population of about nearly one million, limited by iron and food, the total standing force should not be more than 20,000. ”

This is not much different from Yun Feiyu's estimate, as early as Jiang Zhe and on the way to come, Yun Feiyu carefully studied the situation of the eight barbarians in the barbarian county according to the report of the military department, although the barbarian soldiers who made a rebellion were nearly 20,000 but they belonged to various tribes, and the equipment was extremely poor, and they had not been trained in the regular army, Yun Feiyu believed that 10,000 soldiers were enough to deal with it, even if the total population of the eight barbarians was nearly one million, but the life was poor, the lack of food and iron was serious, and the war potential was actually extremely limited, far from being able to compete with the big country of the Central Plains, so this time the rebellion was really a military merit, but Yun Feiyu also had other purposes that could not be clearly stated, so the pacification of the chaos could not be too easy, of course, these kings were not qualified to knowNodding, Yun Feiyu then asked, "What about crossing the river?"

Seeing that Yun Feiyu didn't pay much attention to the barbarian troops, Wang Ke Shou guessed that this colt was probably proud and young and vigorous, so everything was normal in his eyes, of course, he Wang Ke Shou would not engage in any loyalty, so Yun Feiyu answered whatever he asked, and he did everything he ordered, and replied with a conscientious voice: "The officials of the ferry boat are all ready, and the general's army can cross the river and attack the Nanban at any time." ”

This kind of subordinate who has done everything properly is really not easy to pick thorns, Yun Feiyu sat up straight, and ordered: "In this case, according to the original plan, my army will rest here for three days, and cross the river after three days, and by the way, two thousand people will be requisitioned from Liucheng to accompany the army, in order to prepare to open the road to cut down trees and build camps in the southernmost area of Fangshan, and the grain road from the north of Fangshan to Liucheng will be handed over to you Lord Wang, since there is my tiger camp army stationed on the front line of Fangshan, the Liucheng guard army should be able to dispatch, right?"

"The subordinate respectfully obeys the general's order! I wish the general a successful victory!" Wang Keshou said with a heartfelt greeting face, and he also saluted respectfully, showing full sincerity!

Yun Feiyu smiled faintly, originally opened his mouth to let Wang Keshou go back, but temporarily urged his heart to get up, and asked again: "Lord Wang, don't you mind asking you some personal questions? How many heirs do you have in your family?"

Wang Keshou was stunned for a moment, and he didn't understand why Yun Feiyu asked this, but he still replied respectfully: "There is only one son in the Xiaguan family, I don't know if the adults ask this?"

It turned out to be an only son, no wonder he was so arrogant, he must have been spoiled at home, he smiled coldly in his heart, Yun Feiyu said casually: "It's nothing, it's just that Lord Wang's face is quite blessed, and I thought that Lord Wang is full of children and grandchildren, but I didn't expect Lord Wang to be an only son, am I wrong?

Why haven't I heard of it before? But it is rare for the horse master to appreciate it, Wang Keshou was happy in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "The dog has not yet become a family, thank you for the general's concern!"

At the door of the tent, Hu Dabiao and Zhang Dadao almost burst out laughing, and they couldn't help but laugh when they looked at each other, thinking in their hearts: "I don't see it on weekdays!

He was about to abolish his precious son who was observant of Wang Ke, but he didn't know anything and thanked him for his concern, Yun Feiyu felt that he was a little too much, and forced a smile: "Your son should reach the age of starting a family, right? It's better to choose a good family girl for him as soon as possible, young people can get married early to get their hearts early, and they can get into less trouble if they get married early, forget it, this is not something I should ask, it's nothing Lord Wang, you can go back!"

The second monk was puzzled, Wang Keshou withdrew from the big tent, wondering why the horse cared so much about his son's affairs? Inadvertently saw the two guards at the door looking at him with strange expressions, Wang Keshou was even more strange in his heart, and walked out of the barracks and rode on the horse involuntarily touched his face, and said to himself: "Do I really have children and grandchildren?"
