Chapter 943: What's Under the Bowl?
After the first batch of armored horses went down, the news spread quickly, and the martial artists of Xuzhou, Pizhou, Huai'an, Fengyang, and even Henan and Shandong came to defect.
Originally, all the martial artists who came to defect, as long as they were selected and qualified, Zhao Jin would meet and give a few words of encouragement, but after crossing the river, there were too many people, so Cai Huajun could only be arranged to directly screen and join the team.
"Master, Wang Ziyang asks to see." The Guardian brought the news.
"Let him wait over there." Zhao Jin opened his mouth and said, Wang Ziyang asked to see him at the same time as the Shandong emergency report last time, but he didn't see Wang Ziyang after receiving the emergency report.
In the following days, Zhao Ziying was in full swing, and Wang Ziyang's request to see was constantly postponed, and Wang Ziyang's snubbing was not a momentary mood, but an attitude to show Zhao Ziying.
But what people didn't expect was that this Wang Ziyang was really persevering, and he actually followed him to the north bank of the Yellow River, and it was supposed to be his turn to see him, but Liu Yong rushed back from Shandong, so he naturally wanted to see this side first.
"Now the communication on the first line of the canal is almost unimpeded, although the two sides of the canal are not restless, you can walk along the river or take a boat, and there is no one to stop the action, only Jining north and south thirty miles to detour, but if you go from the west side of the canal, there is no trouble."
It was precisely because of this convenience that the news from the Jingshi side reached here, and at the same time, Zhao Ziying arranged the eyeliner in Jining and Ziyang, the capital of Yanzhou, and news began to come over.
“。 Big brother, Jining City began to make peace with the outside of the city on the third day of the siege, and began to send food to the outside world, begging the other side not to attack"
Wenxiangjiao in the east of Jining City, drove a large number of displaced people to fill in the soil to attack the city, did not care about what dead and wounded, the front team fell and the rear team became the front team, the fallen corpse was directly buried by the soil, the rain of arrows on the city of Jining was splashed, and more than 20 stones in the city were also constantly shot, and a large number of displaced people were killed and injured.
But when this arrow was used up, Shi Jian was also damaged because of the use of too often, seeing the crowd under the city, watching those people pounce on it regardless of life and death, watching the slope continue to rise, Jining City was also nervous and panicked, and once again recruited a large number of people to go to the city, ready to defend to the death, and at the same time try to make the displaced people outside the city retreat.
It was at this moment that the leaders of Caoyun who were being monitored, and the leaders of Caoyun's religious beliefs asked, can they let them talk, if they continue to fight like this, although the casualties of the displaced people are worthless, the prosperous situation in Jining City will be ruined.
At present, there is a straw to be grasped, and immediately the religious leaders on the Cao Yun are sent out of the city, so that everyone in the city did not expect that the thief brigade outside the city who looked at the heart of the must be able to do good as a stream, and agreed to peace talks, on the condition that the city would give food, grass and materials.
There is nothing else in Jining City, only this grain and grass and goods are not lacking, even if they can't get it in their own hands, those warehouses on the canal wharf are also stored in huge quantities.
What surprised all parties in the city was that when those materials were thrown from the city, when the number was determined, the homeless brigade really retreated, looking at the retreat of the city as if the tide was receding, many people in the city felt that the rest of their lives were after the catastrophe, looking at the corpses and those dirty and smelly garbage all over the city outside the city, everyone in the city was very sad, the weather was about to be hot, and if the situation outside was left alone, it was easy to cause epidemic explosions, and then it would be another disaster
In desperation, the government had to distribute to the gentry, and when the displaced people outside the city retreated, they had to gather the people's strength to burn the corpses and bury the garbage.
But what people everywhere in Jining City did not expect was that the thieves did not all retreat, but left more than 10,000 people on a Zhuangzi about 20 miles away from the city, while the camp of the refugees was heading towards the southeast, and the march was very slow.
In this situation, it is already possible to send a message for help, or to open the city gate and send people to burn the corpses, at least to clean up the corpses near the canal and the moat, otherwise there is no way to drink the well water.
The messengers who asked for help in the provincial capital were also discharged, and the parties who had worked hard to defend the city in the past few days did not dare to relax, but on the city wall, they were all looking at the vagabonds in the distance, and as soon as the official army arrived, they would slaughter you in purity, and let out a good breath of evil for everyone.
There are also people gloating, thinking that there is something wrong in Jining, obviously there are officials and soldiers stationed in Ziyang, the capital city of Yanzhou, but there is no intention of rescue, this time it will also give you a taste, and when the palace where the Nalu Wangfu is located is in danger, it will definitely be a gathering of imperial armies from all walks of life, and when the time comes, it will be able to scare those bastards in Ziyang City, and it can sweep away this group of hateful homeless.
But what no one expected was that the displaced people who withdrew from the city of Jining did not go to besiege the capital of Yanzhou, which is a prosperous city in Yanzhou City after Jining City, but instead laid down the county seat of Zou County
Zou County is under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou Prefecture, not as good as Jining and Ziyang, and not as good as Qufu, it can only be said that it is a little richer and more prosperous than other places, the descendants of Yasheng Mencius live in Zou County, and also have the title position of the imperial court, but after all, it is not as rich as the thousand-year-old wealth of the Confucian Mansion of the Holy Prince, but it is more complete than other county seats, it has not been damaged by the earthquake, and the harsh taxes and salaries have not affected much, and there will be more township warriors who can be recruited and mobilized than elsewhere, and the materials for defending the city will be far more sufficient than elsewhere, that is to say, this Zou County is the most difficult to gnaw, The huge number of displaced people had to constantly search for food and supplies, and they would not wait too long under this difficult city, or would not touch it at all.
No one expected that the target of the exile brigade was the county seat of Zou County, and everyone thought that the thieves would always besiege Jining City, but they didn't expect that in just a few days, the strength of the Wenxiang Sect had rushed towards Zou County, and people inside and outside Zou County did not expect that there would be so many Wenxiang Sect believers among the refugees who hid in the city a few days ago
When they saw a team of thousands of people under the city, all parties in the Zou County garrison breathed a sigh of relief, but the next battle in the city was even more tragic than outside the city.
Zou County Commander died in battle, the current head of the Meng family and his son-in-law died in battle, Zou Cheng City was broken, and the Wenxiang Sect Brigade poured into the county seat of Zou County, and the Displaced People Brigade did not wash Zou County, did not completely eat up the grain as before, and coerced the people inside and outside Zou County as displaced people, but had the meaning of taking root
The young and pious people who were selected at all levels were arranged in Zhuangzi in and outside the county, while most of the rest of the displaced people were divided into several waves, some of which continued to stop between Jining and Zou County, and some of them went
In Teng County in the south, the remaining homeless people were taken in all directions by no one to harass and loot, to find a bite to eat for their families.
Find a way to live.
“…… Big brother, I'm afraid that what Xu Hongru was trying to do at the beginning was Zou County, Jining Dacheng is also the hub of Caoyun, Ziyang has the palace of King Lu, both of which have strong cities and heavy troops, and it is difficult for the displaced people to take it, but Zou County is relatively easy, and Zou County is very close to Jining and Ziyang, with this solid foundation, you can forge ahead......"
Liu Yong said on the horse that his face looked very bad, he was very tired, and he looked like he had worked hard for many days and had not slept well.
"Should they not be beaten down or not, looking at their appearance under the city of Jining, there is no difference from the city of Xuzhou back then, if it is still this kind of strength, even if it is lucky to occupy Zou County, there is no way to do those two key places." Zhao Jin commented coldly.
Liu Yong also nodded, and said according to Zhao Jin's meaning: "Big brother is right, then Xu Hongru should also know this, if you can't beat a few points around Zou County, and can't get their grain, grass and materials, Zou County will be worthless, if you don't move, that is, sit and wait to die, his grain and grass can't maintain so many people, Zou County is a convenient place in all directions, it won't take too long, all the officials and troops will gather in Zou County, this is the place of death." ”
"Looking at Xu Hongru's actions, do you think he can't think of this?" Zhao Jin asked.
"I can think that if he can't think of it, he can't do such a situation." Liu Yong replied in a deep voice, this kind of analysis does not require clever strategy, but only needs to understand the common sense of military affairs.
"Since he can think of it, then he is sure that he will take Jining City or Ziyang in Zou County, I think now, what kind of certainty does he have, with the smell of incense to teach those outlaws, even the number is not comparable to the number of officials and soldiers, how dare he entrench there?" Zhao Jinlian asked a few questions.
"The little brother is ashamed, he hasn't inquired about it yet." Liu Yong confessed first.
"What's so ashamed, the chaotic situation, human life is not worth a penny, if you say death, you will die, those sect members and those homeless people are no longer human, how can you get involved." Zhao Jin shook his head and said.
After saying this, Zhao Jin said in an accentuated tone: "You and the people below you must remember, at this time, as long as you report the movements of the Wenxiang Sect and the displaced people to my side, we don't need to know what they are inside, and we don't have to know, no matter what, in the end, we want to see the truth on the battlefield, you and Lei Cai must remember, don't take risks." ”
Liu Yong coughed on the horse and said in a sullen voice: "Big brother, there are too many methods that Xu Hongru and Wenxiang Sect secretly have, if we don't know, what if something goes wrong?" ”
"There won't be any mistakes, since he is set in Nazou County, he is going to face the official army, and he will use any means, let's just watch."
