"Alright, let's disperse. There will be a fight tomorrow, and the soldiers under his command must be put in order quickly, and they must not be negligent. ”

With a force of only 500 cavalry, they fought twice a day, and successively carried hundreds of horse thieves from the Doulu Ji Department and hundreds of people from the Bo Cong Department. The number of Ding Zhuang of these two tribes was close to sixty percent of the total number of Jin troops who entered Dai County under the leadership of Lu Yao. Not to mention those so-called Jin troops, most of them were originally thieves...... The slightest change in these people would be a catastrophe, not to mention that Lu Yao was ready to use them as an important combat force.

For this reason, not only Lu Yao, as the commander-in-chief of the whole army, must make meticulous efforts to win over the people's hearts, but officers at all levels must not be negligent in the slightest, and must firmly control the ranks. Lu Yao said a few more words, and the generals dispersed.

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the cavalry in charge of the guard immediately outflanked it. The faint sound of conversation drifted with the night wind, and it was Zhu Sheng who rushed back. This yellow-faced man who was born as a horse thief has never been involved in battle today, but Lu Yao knows that he is leading dozens of capable scouts to investigate, and his responsibility is so great that he is by no means below anyone.

Lu Yao got up and stepped forward: "How is it?" ”

Zhu Sheng dismounted and saluted Lu Yao: "Just as the general expected." In addition to increasing the number of scouts and shrinking the manpower, the Luochuan thieves did not find any signs of migration. However, the two tribes east of Luochuan are currently busy getting closer, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses is very noisy. ”

"Good!" Xue Tong struck each other with his fists and made a snapping sound.

The current situation places extremely high demands on scouts. Zhu Sheng, Hu Liuniang, Shao Xu, and others worked closely together to firmly grasp the miscellaneous movements scattered around the area, so that the whole army could pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and fight against the most suitable opponents.

For example, what Shi just said was the target Luo Chuan thief who was determined by everyone after several calculations. The Luochuan thieves are not thieves in the ordinary sense, but a mixed Hu and Han people, and have a fairly armed homeless organization. They are entrenched in Luochuan on the shore of the Qiyi River, with semi-permanent dock walls and a small amount of arable land, and their subordinates are about 800 strong. Within the boundaries of Daijun, this is already a fairly powerful force. Their economic resources mainly rely on collecting tolls from merchants and travelers, and at the same time, they also cultivate and raise animals on their own, and of course, looting and kidnapping tickets are also their main business.

Shao Xu held the torch in his hand, careful not to let the occasional splash of sparks fall on the silk silk. Ding Miao leaned over from his side and carefully studied the map: "The terrain of Luochuan looks good. ”

"Daijun used to be the Daiguo of Beidi, and the city was built in Luochuan at the earliest. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhao Xiangzi killed the king of the dynasty and named Bolu as the king. In the tenth year of the reign of King Qin, Zhao Gongzijia led hundreds of people from his clan to the dynasty and became the acting king. In the first month of the sixth year of Gaozu of the former Han Dynasty, the 53 counties of Yunzhong, Yanmen and Daijun were the vassal states, and the brother of Gaozu Liu Xi, the Marquis of Yixin, was appointed as the acting king. The national capitals of the four dynasties before and after are all on the site of the Daiwang City on the Luochuan River. Shao Xu stretched out his slender finger and clicked on the dot representing Luo Chuan on the map.

In terms of familiarity with the classics, no one can match him. Obviously, being favored by the generations of the past dynasties shows that Luochuan once had a very important position and role, and if it is managed properly, its influence is enough to radiate the vast area west of Youzhou and north of Bingzhou.

"......I see," Ding Miao said, "This is really a good place." ”

"Yes......" all the generals nodded. These people are all experienced generals, and their eyes are naturally the same.

Luochuan is located between the county seat of Daixian and Feihuyu, and this alone can not only guard the main road between the two states, but also facilitate the control of Daijun County. There are high mountains in the south and hills in the north, it is a basin centered on the former site of the royal city of the Han Dynasty, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the geographical environment is very superior. The Qiyi water flows through this place from southwest to northeast, and the water and grass are abundant and the soil is fertile along the way. If it can be well developed, even if tens of thousands of households are resettled, there will be no problem.

The leader of the Luochuan thieves was a Han man named Mafu. According to Hu Liuniang, this person is very old, and he was already a famous horse thief in northern Xinjiang nearly 20 years ago. Although he is old now, he is still prestigious. Those who can stand in this wild land for decades, and have the treasure land of Luo Chuan and the former site of the Daiwang City, will certainly not be a simple character.

Shao Xu asked with some doubts: "General, there are quite a few thieves in Luochuan. Now it has reduced its troops, relying on the old city to defend it, and the security is very tight. I wonder if tomorrow's battle will go well? ”

Lu Yao looked at the resting soldiers around him and laughed. This is the strong confidence of a martial artist, which is not understandable to scholars: "Husband fights, courage also!" Shao Gong rest assured, tomorrow we will be able to defeat the Luochuan thieves in one go. He tugged at the short mustache that had been left in the past few days, and continued: "Then we will use this Luochuan as the base camp and break the surrounding miscellaneous beards one by one. ”

Xue Tong interjected: "Daoming, we have to renovate the ruins of the Daiwang City in order to play its role." In my opinion, in the next few days, all the tribes who are not suitable for fighting can be mobilized to do this. ”

"That's it." Lu Yao nodded: "Although Daiwang City is a suitable stronghold, it has fallen into disrepair for a long time and cannot immediately accommodate the garrison of large armies. Shao Gong, from tomorrow onwards, all the prisoners who cannot be incorporated into the army will be under your unified management. I will send someone to cooperate with you in repairing the city as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Shao continued.

"If Luochuan's role as a base can be played, the families of the descendants can be uniformly cared for and resettled there. In addition, all kinds of trophies and baggage can also be properly stored. That's right...... And the wounded! Shao Gong, we will continue to fight in the next few days, and there will be no shortage of casualties. If the wounded remain in the army, there is a high probability that morale will be affected. So we had to move the wounded over and treat them. Daixian, Guangchang, Pingshu, and Dangcheng, if there are good doctors in these places, they must also be invited over. ”

Every time Lu Yao said something, he bent a finger: "Also, there are ...... Where are the weapons that Xue Tong collected from Dou Luji's lair? These must be counted as soon as possible and put into the hands of the soldiers. However, it should be noted that bows and crossbows and armor are heavy weapons and must be in the hands of the Jin people; The same is true of other of the more sophisticated weapons. ”

He felt like he had suddenly become a mother-in-law with a broken mouth, nagging and chattering. And even if Shao Xu is a capable staff, he can't help but be in a hurry. Lu Yao couldn't help but sigh: "Gong Shao, you can't be busy, you don't have to be responsible for the distribution of ordnance." Lao Xue, this has to be hard for you. ”

After a while, the generals dispersed, and Shao Xu and Xue Tong also took orders. Although the night was dark, everyone still had a lot of things to do, and Lu Yao was idle. He carefully erected the torch he had received from Shao Xu and inserted it into a crack in the stone. With the light of the fire, he continued to look at the map, pondering every territory, every possible enemy in his mind.

Wanting to build an army from scratch that could win the victory while being far away from the rear support, Lu Yao knew that this was extremely difficult and cumbersome. Not only do you need to fight to the death on the battlefield, but you also need extraordinary coordination skills. To make matters worse, he didn't have enough time. Looking ahead, there are many difficulties and uncertain future, but this makes Lu Yao feel a strong sense of mission. Hidden under the calm exterior is Lu Yao's excited and eager mood. In the interval of repeated calculations, he whispered to himself: Who else is me?

As the balance of the enemy's forces was being calculated, the edge of the camp was filled with the sound of a violent and dense clash of blades.

There was a commotion among the soldiers resting in the camp, and then calm was restored under the pressure of the officers.

Listening to the voice, you can clearly identify that it is two people fighting fiercely, and it is obvious that it is not a night attack by Hu'er. Therefore, Lu Yao only called He Yunlai: "You go and see what happened." If it is a private fight between their own soldiers, each person will have twenty military sticks. ”

"Yes." He Yun hurried over.

After a while, he hurried back again, looking a little embarrassed: "General Qiyu, there is a fish from the Bo Scorn Department who has slipped through the net and sneaked into the camp. It wasn't until we got close to the place where we were holding the prisoners that they were discovered by Team Leader Chen Peichen. Team Leader Chen led people to block him and personally arrested him. In addition, Shen Jin has already sent more people to search the area around the camp, and he asked me to tell you, the general: Please rest assured, there will never be a second one. ”

No wonder he was embarrassed. Shen Jin has fought countless battles with the Hu people in northern Xinjiang and is extremely experienced; He is also proficient in archery, and has excellent eyesight, often boasting that he can't even hide a gopher under a pair of sharp eyes. And Chen Pei was the former cavalry governor under the king of Chengdu, and he served under Ji Sang, and he was well versed in the hidden skills of thieves. These two were ordered by Lu Yao to lead a number of elite soldiers to be responsible for the vigilance of the whole army, and everyone felt that they were very suitable.

But now, these two actually let an enemy lurk in the depths of the barracks! This is no small thing. The security of the camp is of paramount importance. If someone infiltrates it, whether it is arson, poisoning, or spreading rumors, it can cause huge losses.

In the current situation, not to mention what kind of people are lurking in, at least Shen Jin and Chen Pei are inevitably beaten with military sticks.
