Chapter 518: Departure is about to begin
"Sister-in-law, since you say so, then I will let the old guitar continue to follow me, we are all brothers who have experienced life and death together in the grassland, I know his ability, although I will stay in Hedong for a period of time, but I will have to return to Youzhou sooner or later, when the time comes, you will be all over the world, the south and the north, and I don't know what year and month it will be when we meet again, it is better to be like this, you are also like Lao Wu and his family to move to Youzhou with me, so that your life can also be guaranteed, how?"
"Cheng, Cheng, so that I can also take care of my beloved nearby, and he can also devote himself to doing things for you, Captain." Ji Kang's daughter-in-law agreed, and he found that although this man was only a few peaceful words, it was difficult for people to refuse no matter what, as if unconsciously, or it was difficult to give birth to the idea of refusal at all, only to obey.
"Okay, and your father, if you want, let's move in together, you pack your bags first and bring your valuables in the next few days, and then I will send someone to escort you back to Youzhou Lulong first."
The two newcomers left happily, maybe only Wu Ke and Ji Kang have the most say at this moment, Sima has changed, not that he has become unapproachable, but his bearing has changed, maybe this is the result of the rise in power, but no matter how it changes, Liu Lan is always the same Liu Lan, and he is always an old brother who was born and died together.
Liu Lan left, took the old brothers with him, just said hello to the county order, and asked him to prepare the military supplies and return to the barracks, and set off for Baibo Valley, as for Ji Kang Wuke, he will set off early tomorrow morning, after all, no matter how urgent he is, he can't take people away today when he spends candles in the cave room.
On the way back, the county gentleman sneered and said this line. Liu Lan won't eat good fruit, absolutely not. However, the county lieutenant was skeptical of the optimism of the county order, frowning and saying that this Liu Lan was not an ordinary person. I heard that the supernatural powers are very vast, and they can come out unscathed when they enter the North Temple Prison, and they have caused a lot of sensation in the capital.
"And this?"
County order, this thing will never go wrong, it is definitely this Liu Lan, this time the general has given you a chore. If this thing is not done well, you will be offended at both ends, and if it is done well, it is unknown whether the general can keep you. The county lieutenant and the county order are now grasshoppers on a rope, although he is talking about the county order, why is he not talking about himself? I was scared, but I wanted to give it a fight, after all, if I did this for the general, wouldn't I have a friendship with the general. Isn't promotion just around the corner in the future, compared to the consequences, the benefits are the black cloth that will eventually blind the eyes
"I know what you're worried about, isn't the general going to fake the white wave thief to deal with Liu Lan. Then we just need to do a little bit and not show up in person. โ
"Has the prefectural order been noticed?"
"Let's go back and talk about it."
~~~~~~~
The county order left, and Liu Lan and his entourage also returned to the military camp outside Dianpรน Village, first of all, he summoned the generals and colonels. He said, "Just now the angel came to convey the holy will, and the white wave thief rebelled in the white wave valley. Let's go to counterinsurgency as much as we can, but for now. Of course, it is also possible that the target of the white wave thieves is not to the south of Jiangyi but to Pingyang County in the north, so we must be prepared for this, once the white wave thieves have occupied Pingyang, we have to find a way to drag them down, and we can't let them go south or even north. โ
Liu Lan said, to Shiren, said: "The art of war knows that we know that the enemy will win a hundred battles, but now we don't know anything about the enemy situation in Baibo Valley, this is the least intelligence gathering in so many years, so you have to take your scout battalion to leave first, and find out their strength and deployment, which is related to our battle is the key to victory or defeat." โ
"No." Shiren left, but Zhang Zheng always frowned and said: "Captain, these rebels have always rebelled, and the sound is bound to be huge, but we haven't even gotten any news of rebellion in Jiangyi, don't you think it's strange?" This is also a little too abnormal, and more importantly, the Son of Heaven has received the news, we have been in Jiangyi for so long but we haven't even heard a little rumor, this is also too abnormal. โ
"This matter is indeed a bit strange, but it is not excluded that the Son of Heaven has eyeliner among the people, just like an angel like Si Li's captain, he can directly send the secret letter to the Son of Heaven, which can also explain why the Son of Heaven can know about the White Wave Thieves in advance of us, in fact, this is not the most important thing now, the most important thing at the moment is to think of a countermeasure, how to deal with these White Wave Thieves, what may happen, what is not possible, must be estimated, otherwise the intelligence collection has fallen behind, once we rush to go, but we will die."
Liu Lan said the word dead very seriously, everyone had never found Sima so nervous, in fact, this sudden white wave thief also made many people uncomfortable, I don't know why, it just felt weird, a little uneasy, and even a little panicked, this feeling was the first time in so many years that Sima appeared, even when the three thousand dragons rode into Liucheng, there was no such feeling, ominous feeling.
"I have a bad premonition, this is the first time in many years, but we can't have scruples because of a bad premonition, we are the first troops to quell the rebellion, and then there will definitely be Yan Lang and even the state army to come to help, that is to say, we have to hold out in difficult conditions for several months, so we also have to make a full estimate of the upcoming difficulties."
"Sima, if the thieves are strong, have you thought about how long our three thousand dragoons will have to hold out in the east of the river before waiting for those reinforcements?" Guan Yu asked worriedly.
"I thought about it, at most two months, reinforcements will arrive around the winter, before that I will write to the Son of Heaven and ask him to give me the command of the mobilization of the county soldiers, if so, maybe I can hold out until the spring of next year, but there is one thing you may not know, that is, because the Xiliang Rebellion Treasury has long been empty, this is also the reason why the Son of Heaven thinks of us, after all, we have a small number, and the local counties can afford military supplies, but if it is transferred from Luoyang or even Bingzhou to quell the rebellion, the current Han Dynasty does not have such financial resources." Liu Lan sighed, the dignified Han Dynasty, even the troops of tens of thousands of troops have become a luxury, this is simply a joke, but this is just the worst result of taking things into account, if the number of white wave thieves is not large, then three thousand cavalry is enough to quell the rebellion, and in this way the treasury can save this military expenditure, so the Son of Heaven asked him to be so anxious to quell the rebellion, in addition to the speed of the soldiers, and the lack of food and grass, and this can even be extended to why the Son of Heaven did not dare to take prisoners, because the treasury could not afford the prisoners' food and drink.
This is really a joke, and now I can only beg for a successful battle and annihilate the white wave thieves, otherwise, the stormy Han Dynasty will really break my bones. (To be continued......)
