Chapter 294: The Thief and the Sigh

The wounds caused by the passive turmoil in Hengshan County have not been restored, and after Lu Zhe sent troops to take Hengshan County, he also moved the local Qianshou to Nanjun for a time, and Gongwei did not have enough labor to improve the current situation of Hengshan County after becoming the military and political governor of Hengshan County.

Two months ago, Lu Zhe shifted his attention to Hengshan County for a short time, and some policies benefiting the people in Nanjun were also implemented in Hengshan County, but compared with the rapid development of Nanjun, Hengshan County, which lacks labor, has not changed much.

Hengshan County was one of the military centers of Chu to the Central Plains during the Warring States Period, and its own agriculture was not developed, and the local handicraft industry was basically destroyed by the trauma of the war. According to the definition of the Tang Dynasty, Hengshan County should be a Mizhou, which is a territory that has such a territory and drags down finances more than nothing.

Lu Zhe took Hengshan County in order to strategically achieve both offensive and defensive roles, otherwise Hengshan County is more chicken than Cangwu County, which has relatively good agricultural development, and now it is finally time for Hengshan County to give full play to its due military value.

It took two days to assemble the 70,000-strong army, but it only took one afternoon to deploy the supplies, and when the lieutenant rushed to the barracks lightly, the 70,000-strong army was already in a state of preparation.

Lu Zhejun's military discipline and structure are not much different from the Qin army, and in some aspects, such as the distribution of powers, transfer matters, mutual supplementation and other details, it is even better than that of the Qin army, so the lieutenant basically does not have to worry about anything, and when he arrives at the barracks, he verifies the military orders issued by Lu Zhe with the military law Cao and Zhangzuo again, and the 70,000 army also sets off.

Hengshan County has a narrow terrain, and there are only five counties in the whole county: Yi County, Xiling County, E County, Qisi County, and Yiyang County. , Deng Zong, who was entrenched in Hengshan County, developed to a certain number and then expanded across the county to win Anfeng in Jiujiang County, and later Yi Jian and Xu Zhi chased and killed Deng Zong to also take Anfeng, so Lu Zhe can be regarded as a bridgehead in Jiujiang County.

Jiujiang County should currently be one of the southern counties that is still "fighting among the princes". The county is still as it is. It is absolutely inseparable from Lu Zhe, Xiang Liang, Huan Chu, Chen Yu, Tian Dan and others, who made Jiujiang County in the middle of Qin, Qi and Chu? In this way, anyone will take a bite, or cultivate a spokesperson.

During the Warring States Period, the ownership of Jiujiang County was constantly changing, and it was taken by the Chu State in the later period. Of course, at that time, there were two names of Jiujiang County, one was the current Jiujiang County, and the other was now renamed Lujiang County. Naturally, the area is not the current scope, and the current Jiujiang County is much smaller than before.

The Hengshan Legion of the Lieutenant chose to go north to Anfeng, and they needed to cross a mountainous area, which was called Dabie Mountain in later generations. The current name is called the Hengshan Mountain Range, and its area is naturally different from that of later generations, after all, it is now "more than 2,000 years ago".

At this time, the Hengshan Mountain Range is estimated not to be like the Dabie Mountain two thousand years later, and the range of the mountain range is not too large, but the current mountains and forests are basically people who hide from the war.

Some time ago, there was a group of displaced people or armed people who ran from Chen County to Hengshan County, and when they entered the boundary of Hengshan County, they were supposed to arrange local settlement. I don't know what the situation is, but there is a team of more than 100 people running into the mountains and forests of Hengshan, and the lieutenant was supposed to deal with it after returning from Nanjun here, but the order from Lu Zhe to fight again delayed this matter.

The army of 70,000 walked mightily, and its movement was impossible. People who are hiding in the mountains and forests will come out and watch from afar when they notice the movement.

Some time ago, the more than 100 people who ran into this mountain forest also climbed to a high place and watched the army pass by from a distance, and one of them named Peng Yue couldn't take his eyes off it, looking at the mighty army and subconsciously opened his mouth.

"This is the army named Lu Zhe? It looks much stronger than Wei Wangjiao's army. A stout-looking, bearded-looking man next to him shouted.

"Hey, hey! This is what kind of flag is like a forest," Peng Yue grinned. "You listen to the footsteps coming from afar, step by step is so neat that it is not like words, it is really not comparable to Wei Jun."

Who is Peng Yue? He is a native of Changyi. He often fished in the wild lakes and rivers, and ganged up with a gang of people to be robbers. After the chaos in the world, he took a group of robbers and learned to raise troops, but it once developed to more than 5,000 people, but after the development, he not only robbed the township in the Qin army's control, but also robbed the territory of the Wei king's recovery, and as a result, the Qin army wanted to fight him, and the Wei army also had to fight, and more than 5,000 people were left with less than 2,000 people in the end, and they were defeated in the hands of Wei Bao a month ago and fled to Hengshan County with the remnants of more than 100 people.

"Are they going to Chenjun or Jiujiang from this direction?" Peng Yue's face was thoughtful.

"It doesn't matter where they go, Hengshan County should be empty after the army leaves, right? At that time, we went down the mountain to do a few deals! The bearded man smirked with yellow teeth.

Peng Yue has this intention, more than 100 of them are nested in the mountains and forests and lack everything, and they always have to do something if they want to live.

"There is a village thirty miles away from here, Hei went to investigate, there are more than 200 people in the village, and there are less than 20 young people." The bearded thief smiled: "That village is rich, and every month there are dozens of wagons from the official army to deliver some cloth and food. ”

"Huh? Why did the officers and soldiers send cloth and food to that village? Peng Yue was more curious.

Wrapping his beard and shaking his head: "Hei said that there are a lot of girls in the village, so they should exchange cloth and food, right?" ”

"Dozens of carriages, nearly five hundred officers and soldiers, each person is not worth so much cloth and food for a woman, and the body of the girl in the village is made of jade agate!" Peng Yue laughed out loud directly.

Wrapping his beard and touching his head: "What are you going to do with cloth and food, it won't be help, right?" There is no government in the world that will do such a good thing. ”

"Whatever it is, let Hei go and see it again tomorrow, let's do it later!" Peng Yuecai didn't care what the officials and soldiers were doing when they sent those things to that village, he wanted a group of brothers to improve their lives.

"Dare to be kind!" "Qin found a lot of people in the woods, should we do this before we go?" "It's about bringing together those who are hiding from the war in the mountains and forests.

Naturally, Peng Yue is extremely short of manpower now, there should be three or four thousand people in this mountain forest at present, basically staying in the mode of one village, he has always wanted to expand his team, then these people are the best source.

In fact, Lu Zhejun's sending cloth and grain to the village has happened in many places, but it is not a kind of free assistance, but the delivery of cloth is to let the villagers tailor their robes, and the villagers work in exchange for food, which is part of the policy of benefiting the people.

The communist lieutenant who led the army on the expedition did not have clairvoyance and was not a good ear, and he was still full of entanglement with his father and sent three letters in a row, each of which was asking for an immediate and immediate betrayal of the Lu thief, and then attacking Nanjun to make an immortal contribution to Great Chu.

That's right, Gongao called Lu Zhe a thief, saying that he was a thief who stole the great Chu and the great country, Xiang Sima, Xiang General, Xiang Liang Gong, anyway, he is the honorific Xiang Liang. said that Lu Zhe did not know whether he was alive or dead, and he was the enemy of the general Xiang Yanhou, so that the common lieutenant would destroy this thief for the country and Xiang Gong.

Gongwei trembled every time he saw his father call Lu Zhe a thief and a thief, no matter how Lu Zhe promoted him to Weimo, but his father was a Lu thief, and he opened his mouth and closed his mouth to call the thief, which is really ......

Not to mention that Gongwei didn't want to rebel at all, even if he wanted to rebel, he had to have that opportunity, now that the situation is unclear, Gongao scolded like this, it can be seen that Gongao in Chu will scold Lu Zhe even more fiercely, if people know that Gongao is his father, and the words of the scolding spread to Nanjun, then how should he deal with himself?

There was no chance of rebellion, and Lu Zhejun was different from the Chu army, and even different from the Qin army or other restored countries. Other countries (forces) have private troops, and some of the generals of Lu Zhejun's army are only personal soldiers who are treated according to their status, but the army is clearly organized, and there are military laws and subordinates, and they want to rebel unless they kill a large number of people first. Also, most of the soldiers of Lu Zhejun's family live in Nanjun, and the thriving life makes people look forward to it, and the rebellion will not win the hearts of the army at all, so isn't the rebellion a dead end?

Gongwei is now full of entanglements and contradictions, not about whether to rebel or not, but because his father doesn't know what he was bewitched by the Xiang family, and he doesn't even care about his son in Lu Zhe's army, didn't he think that if such a scolding spreads, he will suffer at that time?

Moreover, Gongwei is one of the three commanders under Lu Zhe, which is a much more important position than Gongao being a Xianyin who has no military power and no power, Lu Zhe now holds three counties, if this war is won, Lujiang County and Changsha County will also be in hand, and Jiujiang County may also be included in the rule, at that time it was at least five counties.

The chaos in the world is already an established fact, who can judge in advance what will happen in the future? Who knows if a person like Lu Zhe will become a more powerful figure in the future, but as a hegemon of one side, it can already be expected, can such a person be insulted at any time?

Gongwei's entanglement lies in whether his father's scolding is cool or refreshing, and he probably doesn't understand his situation, thinking that he is in charge of the army and controls Hengshan County and wants to rebel easily, so he is so unscrupulous, but his father doesn't know the system of Lu Zhe's rule and the army at all, and it can be predicted that after Gongao's remarks reach Lu Zhe's side, he will be completely finished.

What about the contradiction? It was the lieutenant who was thinking about whether to inform Lu Zhe of what happened first, and what would happen to those who were not allowed to do so.

"Alas!" Sigh, I have to sigh, the lieutenant feels that his bright future is about to be buried for such a thing. (To be continued......)
