Under the instigation and demagogy of the rebels, whether it is the locals or the immigrants, there are seven or eight out of ten believers, and there are many unbelievers, and these people are either unbelievers or are already at the bottom and are deeply disappointed in life.

And the more outsiders are in the upper echelons of the ruling power, the more they believe in the demagogy of the Black Turban Army Holy Envoy, after all, they are a privileged group,

So now we have to face a thorny problem, the Black Turban Army is occupying the territory, dividing the population into three, six, nine and so on according to the vassal country, which leads to the collapse of the local government, and the existing privilege system and vested interest groups collapse with the collapse of the Black Turban Army system.

As many as 780,000 Sun people moved into Tiancheng from outside, and the Xianguo people in Tiancheng and its counties and dependent territories dropped sharply from nearly 300,000 before the war to less than 180,000, and of the 120,000 people who were missing, nearly 70,000 of them were forcibly relocated to Sun Guo, and 30,000 were sent to the battlefield to serve as men and soldiers.

The total number of foreign Zhiguo, Xu, and Changsun people reached 150,000, and the total population exceeded that before the war, reaching 410,000, many of whom were family members of the Yongxing River Black Gold Army, and half of them were not locals.

Once the existing interests are broken, these privileged foreigners will immediately become a factor of instability in the local area, and it is these foreigners who will first rise up to resist the restoration of the rule of the Xian army.

Bailiyan is at a loss, the situation in Tiancheng is far more complicated than Shao Ping, the public opinion has not been investigated and found in place, the rebels are so relieved to evacuate the rear, most of them are not afraid of fire in the rear, after all, when there are more foreigners than their own nationals, the nature of land ownership has changed, and it is still a time of war.

"The situation in Tiancheng is complicated, and if it is not handled carefully, it will lead to tragedy. Zhao family master, the rebel army is approaching in a few days, I don't know how many people Tiancheng is willing to serve the Xian country now? ”

"The six surnames of my Zhao family are all willing to serve the Xian army, and in addition, there are many people in the city who are unwilling to be enslaved, and it is not difficult to organize more than 10,000 people."

"That's very good. Su Hong! ”

"The end will be."

"From now on, according to the established plan, the rebel envoys and officials in the whole city will be fully arrested and made public."

"No!"

"Separately order all battalions to surrender the captured prisoners, and detain and teach them as soon as possible."

"The last will obey."

As soon as the words fell, Bai Liyan remembered something again and asked Zhao Ju:

"Master Zhao, I heard a news in the future, it is rumored that the rebels have recently transported a large number of malaria herbs into Tiancheng to treat malaria, but I don't know that there is an outbreak of malaria in Tiancheng."

"There is still such a thing, why don't I know the news." Zhao Ju asked the clansmen left and right, and the Zhao family shook their heads together: "General Wei, malaria miasma is extremely dangerous, if this matter is true, the thieves must have other plans." ”

"Well, this matter is very important, how about I ask the pseudo-Taishou Shenli about the truth, and then give you an answer?"

"General Wei is well aware of the righteousness, and we should obey our orders, but this Shen Li has done a lot of evil, and if he doesn't kill him, it will be difficult to solve the hatred in the hearts of us and the people. I also ask the general to hand him over to us after questioning. ”

"Yes, until the ins and outs are clarified, Shen Li is still at your disposal."

"Thank you, General, I'll go back and gather all the villagers to help the general."

Shen Li has been in charge of Tiancheng for more than a year, and it is not only the Zhao family who wants to kill him to pay for his life.

Soon after the six surnames of the Zhao family left the palace, Bailiyan temporarily drafted a notice in the name of Sima of Guangxin City, and posted the whole city to reassure the people, and at the same time, Su Hong led the way by the Zhao family, and searched for the black turban god Yu Xin throughout the city, which was fiercely resisted by the people's army led by Sun Guo, and Su Hong suppressed it.

Around noon, Bai Liyan personally interrogated Taishou Shenli and learned that the herbs transported by the rebels to Tiancheng were indeed malaria herbs.

"Say, what do the Black Turban Army want so many herbs for malaria."

"As long as the general is in the next life, he must know everything in the next."

"Yes, Ben could have taken your life. Now let's talk about it, what is the use of the Black Turban Army hoarding many herbs for the treatment of malaria in Tiancheng! ”

"It's for poisoning."

"Poisoned? Could it be that he wants to use the water source to cast malaria miasma into the dead, so as to mutilate our army! ”

"Yes!"

"Bastard, have you given your conscience to the dogs!" Bai Liyan was furious: "Such a thing that has lost its conscience and destroyed humanity has been done!" Say, who gave the order. ”

"I was just acting on orders, and I occasionally secretly heard people from Yongxing River mention it, but who ordered it, I really don't know it."

The Black Turban Army held each other on the banks of the Yongxing River, even if they took Beihai County, the fortified city of Chenling, and the more than 200,000 Xian troops on the east bank of the Yongxing River would still be trapped and fighting, causing huge casualties to the Black Turban Army, so they wanted to poison the Malaria Army, so that the Xian Army would be infected with malaria and defeated without a fight.

Once the Xian army on the east bank was infected with malaria, the rebels immediately retreated to Taoli to take herbs, and when the Xian army was almost dead, they launched a fatal blow to completely disintegrate the Xian army. And it should be called in the name of the punishment of daring to block God's will to complete the mission.

"Ben will ask you, where is the dense forest path from Tiancheng to Hecheng, and there are soldiers and horses stationed there."

"Fifty miles southeast of Tiancheng, there are 2,000 people at the entrance, and every half a month, there will be people who deliver grain and grass through the trail."

"So, you'd have been plotting to open this path a long time ago, but that's the case."

"Yes, in July last year, after the failure of the Heavenly Master's method in Miaotian Mountain, Tiancheng and Weijin received strict orders to secretly open up the woods leading to Hecheng, and mobilized 80,000 people to cut down trees day and night to level the land until June this year."

It took nearly a year for the Black Turbans to open a trail through the primeval forest between Tiancheng and Hecheng, more than 600 miles, and to build four bridges to cross the tributaries of the Yongxing River that stretches northward. At the beginning of this year, the rebels built Yongxing City, and the large timber used in the giant trebuchet built by the rebels for the first time came from the towering trees obtained from the logging in Tiancheng, otherwise the rebels would not have been able to build a giant trebuchet with a range of more than 400 steps and shoot across the Yongxing River.

"Ben will ask you again, how many people are there in Weijin and Xiaqu now, and what is the population?"

"There are 8,000 defenders in Xiaqu and 3,000 in Weijin."

"Why are there 8,000 people in Xiaqu?"

"This ......"

Shen Li was speechless, wanting to say it or not, Baili Yan felt that there was a hidden feeling, and asked again:

"Say, why does Xia Qu have 8,000 defenders, otherwise you will be worse off than dead!"

"This ......"

"Say!" Bai Liyan broke off and snorted, and pulled out a horizontal knife and put it on Shen Li's head: "Say yes or not." ”

"Say, say below. Originally, there were only 3,000 people, but about a month ago, a group of women were brought in from the Changsun Kingdom, and these 5,000 people were the soldiers who accompanied the escort. ”

"Woman, what woman, how many!"

"Yes, it's a brothel, about 6,000 people."

Baili Yuan was furious when he heard the news, kicked Shen Li over, and scolded:

"Shameless, shameless!"

At present, prostitution camps exist in all countries, and there were also in Xian before, and the main sources were slaves, lowly people, official prostitutes, and forced conscription. After the defeat of Jiangdong, the Xianguo prostitute camp was mortgaged to the Jin State as war reparations, and more than 3,000 women were captured by the Jin State and filled into the prostitute camp for the Jin army's sexual pleasure, and the Xianguo State never set up a prostitute camp after that.

At the beginning of the rebels' uprising, they used the slaughter of powerful people and the abduction of powerful women as the main means to enrich the rebel prostitute camps, and the specific number has been unknown. Yongxing River, as the main camp of the rebels, should have a prostitute camp, and the army led by Thunder fought frequently, and the accompanying army was not equipped with a prostitute camp.

The more than 6,000 women who were escorted into Xianguo from Changsun State this time should be the prostitute camp that supplies the Thunder Army and the rebels in the occupied areas of Xianxi, Chunan, and Dujunxi County, and according to this scale, the rebels on the banks of the Yongxing River should also have a prostitute camp of this scale.

"Someone!"

"The subordinates are here."

"Escort Shen Li down and wait for the fate!"

"No."

Shen Li struggled to beg for his life, and the guards on the left and right couldn't help but drag him out of the side hall and put him in the government prison to wait for his fate.

"These scumbags! Come. ”

"What does the general command?" Protector Road.

"Go, call Su Hongyu to me."

"No"

Two moments later, Su Hong hurriedly came to the atrium:

"What is the matter with the general summoning the last general?"

"How's the rebel envoy arrested?"

"The people of Sun Guo are in turmoil, and there are still a few who have not been caught, and the Zhao family is besieging them."

"Leave the matter of arresting the remnants to the Zhao family, leave the injured brothers and a thousand men and horses to continue to guard the four gates, and the rest of the men and horses will be repaired as soon as possible, tonight you and Lu Zhao will lead the army north to attack Xia Qu, and it can't be delayed any longer."

"Why, didn't you fight Tiancheng first, then Weijin, and finally take Xia Qu."

"The situation has changed, Xia Qu is not the five or six thousand people previously estimated, there are eight thousand."

"So many, if you get stuck in it, but there is no return."

"So, you have to take the rebels by surprise before they can react. Therefore, set off tonight, you wait to go to the military warehouse to change into the rebel armor and uniform, and go out day and night.

The scouts of the Xia Qu rebels are all placed on the east front, so when you are fifty miles away from Xia Qu, you will make a detour to the south, go around to the southwest of Xia Qu, and then take advantage of the night to touch under the city wall and attack Xia Qu at night, so this time you bring a rope hook and a rope ladder. ”

"Night raid? Five or six thousand people attacked eight thousand people at night, and the casualties were not small, how to attack Weijin again. ”

"The rebels have a prostitute camp of more than 6,000 women in Xiaqu, let the old cat sleep with salted fish, can the old cat sleep, you should understand the rest."

"What, 8,000 people have 6,000 women, my God......"

"You can be careful for me, don't let me fall into a prostitution den and rot to death, if you let me know that you and Lu Zhao violated my military discipline, what the consequences are, you can weigh it yourself."

"No, the last will obey. But ......"

"But what!" Bai Liyan glared at Su Hong.

"General, you can promise, the woman of Guilefang will be the last general, after this battle, the general will not break his promise."

"Since you've said it, I'm going to give you three chapters here. First, the matter between men and women, you and I are willing, you must obtain the consent of the woman, and you must not take it by force.

Second, if you like someone, you are married. Third, everyone will be old, and in the future, all women will be old, if you dislike it, and divorce your wife for no reason, your good days will come to an end.

Fourth, there are many men killed in the war at the moment, Ben will not object to marrying more and having more children, but don't be a woman, if you let Ben know that you are mean and forget your roots, Ben will let you go back to your hometown to farm, and know what Ben is.

In the end, this law is valid for all generals and soldiers, and whoever violates this law will bear the consequences, you can understand. ”

"The Admiral understands."

"Okay, arrange for the soldiers to rest as soon as possible, eat and drink enough food and grass in the first half of the night tonight, and attack the summer canal."

"What about Wei Jin?"

"Weijin, Xiaqu, and Tiancheng are each other's horns, as long as our army occupies these two places, the rebels will either fight a decisive battle or abandon Weijin. If the rebels hold on for a long time, they will be directly exposed to our army's forces in Qiunan and Xianxi, and even cut off the passage to the south of Qiunan County, so Weijin's gains and losses are only between the First World War. ”
