Chapter 634 Urgent need for captives

The season has gradually entered November. Northern China during the Little Ice Age is colder than in previous years. The howling north wind, with loess without any moisture, rolls south on the Loess Plateau, sweeping across the Guanzhong, Weinan, making the originally warm and dry and cold place.

It has been a month since the rebel army left the army to send troops to Weinan. The rebel army has been in the city of Pucheng so tepid, living at home outside Pucheng. According to the training and siege in the base area, it has not been affected by the weather at all, and it seems that it has regarded this place as home.

After morning exercises, it was the afternoon break. The generals of the rebel army continued to gather in Lu Shi's tent as they were done and chatted and laughed.

According to custom, once this battle formation is opened, it is a fierce battle, so everyone should be nervous.

However, everything was unexpected, and this was the case with the current crusade.

For Pucheng, everyone followed the policy of siegeing points to attack aid, and only surrounded but not attacked. Since they only surrounded but did not attack, they seemed to have forgotten the siege. Especially in the last battle, they annihilated the elites of Zhang Shiwu and Zhang Cunmeng, causing the strength of the defending party to greatly lose their strength. Then they used various siege methods beyond the times to capture Pucheng, but they wanted to implement the idea of ​​siege and attack aid, put this key point for the official army there, and become a real bait. At the same time, in that battle, the idea of ​​the small movements of the Pucheng defenders was completely destroyed, and they squatted at the top of the city, watched the siege shouting for training, watched the people swept the surrounding rural areas, watched the land of Weinan slowly enter the siege and applaud, and saw that their warehouse gradually became dry and helpless.

After the reinforcements of the peripheral government were surrendered to the military households of the four counties at one time, no soldiers came to harass and peep, which made everyone feel very bored.

As for He Renlong's military and martial arts, Zhao Xing had already mastered this matter. Not only did he not worry about He Renlong's actions, but he was worried about He Renlong. Why was it so slow? When did it still not send the population to the people? Now, in the seven counties in the base area, factories that emerged like mushrooms after the rain, water conservancy, roads, wasteland reclaimed, etc., have caused serious labor shortage and manpower.

Last time, I captured nearly 6,000 Ding Zhuang, which immediately made the hungry base labor market see a sense of hope.

At the ferry entrance, Mr. Zhao Zi had sent Master Zi Xiu to urge him several times to capture some of his men and women to enrich the population that was seriously lacking in labor.

After quickly dividing up the six thousand dynasties, they not only treated them well, but also encouraged them to send a message home to recruit more dynasties.

However, Lu Shi saw farther than them, he would never let Ding Zhuang in Weinan move in disorderly manner. Then, when building Guanzhong in Weinan in the early spring, he repeated the original situation again. Therefore, when the government officials were scattered around under the protection of the garrison squad, mobilizing the masses and implementing policies, they began to promote the beautiful scenery of Weinan in the future, so that everyone could build with peace of mind. Now, under the concept of Mr. Gu, who is unable to leave his hometown, there is almost no population flowing to the original base area before the beautiful prospects, so the lack of labor in the base area has not been alleviated at all.

Therefore, in the minds of all the bosses, government officials, Laoying, and Zhao Zixianzun who needed labor, there was an idea of ​​a solution to the labor force - grab.

To put it bluntly, it means capturing the official army, and then allowing these prisoners to participate in local construction.

After all, the prisoners were born there. According to the King of Chuang, they had to undergo a period of transformation before they could be released into society. Otherwise, the children of landlords and powerful people, or gangsters, among the prisoners, would be destroyed and affected the good and stable society that the base had finally established, which would not be worth the loss.

Today, representatives sent by people from all walks of life in the base area, or even bosses of all sizes gathered together, and strongly demanded that the rebel army attack and arrest more prisoners. Then everyone assigned them, called the management education of the rebel army. Of course, they also agreed to Lu Shi's request to treat the prisoners well, and promised that once the one-year period expired, the prisoners would be free and allowed to go around.

Among the calls from all walks of life in the base area to demand the attack of the rebel army, Mr. Xiu, the master sent by Mr. Zhao Zi, was the most active, which made Lu Shi wonder if everyone came together this time, was it the instigation of this master who was full of bad water.

Master Zixiu is now very energetic. He stands among a group of rioters and aides, shouting at King Lu Shichuang, and treating himself as the core of an old man.

"King of Chuang, if you don't send me three thousand Dingzhuang over, the tax burden I pay this month will be reduced." Seeing Lu Shi's helpless smile, he gritted his teeth and took out his killer weapon: "The salt of the front army needs will be cut off, you can do it."

Lu Shi was very angry. Threatening, absolute threat. This kind of trend cannot rise. Even if Mr. Zhao Zi is here, he has to argue with reason.

He slapped the table and shouted loudly: "I just don't have anyone, why do you want me?" Then he gritted his teeth at Zi Xiu with a ferocious look on his face: "But if you dare not transport salt and saltpeter into the base area, I will use the military law that delays the opportunity to fight and let Zhao Xing's soldiers supervise handle you."

"Robber, absolutely rogue, is a shameful person, and a shameful person." Master Zixiu shouted in pain, but he was helpless when he saw that he had no longer looked at him. He had to turn around and make small moves to encourage other people to come forward and clamor. I am on duty, so you can scare me with the soldiers, but these merchants and factory owners are not under your control, and it depends on what you do.

"By the way, I'm just a person who is in charge. If you have something to do, you can tell Mr. Zhao Zi. Anyway, my task is to take away the three thousand Dingzhuang for emergency response." The rogue, I'm so anxious, anyone can do it. Although I just said it was a disgrace to be gentle, who still cares about it now?

In fact, it is not a big deal that Master Zixiu is anxious. The Yichuan Ferry is now extremely busy. I originally thought that the Yellow River was frozen and the trade route was about to be cut off. The ferry was about to enter the off-season and liberated a large number of people. In fact, this was a traditional habit, but unexpectedly, I don’t know which businessman, who may have been knowledgeable outside the pass, actually pulled the Jurchen horse sled out. Erlang was even more happy when he saw it. After several nights of improvement, he pulled the ropes on both sides of the Yellow River and dragged it with a winch. He became a train that was not a train. On the ice of the Yellow River, he continued the busy transportation operation.

The sled is walking like a flying ice surface, with a huge capacity, but large equipment such as gantry cranes have become decorations and cannot be used at all. Now, loading and unloading can only rely on manpower, so labor is urgently needed at the ferry.

When he mentioned the Zhao Zi County Zun who was calm but had a long-term vision, Lu Shi became speechless. He opened his mouth, sat down dejectedly, and covered his face with his hands. Even Mr. Zhao Zi started to complain, and then you can imagine how short the base area is now. Now, it is still the off-season, and there should be a large amount of surplus labor in the countryside. Once spring and summer begin, wouldn’t it be a life-threatening time?

The third uncle, who was tired from behind, also stood up and said to his godson in a desperate situation: "King of Breaking."

"Dad, just say it all." Lu Shi can be rogue to anyone, but this godfather is not good. Not to mention that filial piety is the first priority in life. This is the trend. He, the King of Chuang, should take the lead. The most important thing is that he does have the warmth of fatherly love and motherly love in these two old men. When he feels lonely since time traveling through time, this is his greatest comfort.

"That, that, can you send me some more staff? Frontline transportation is really labor-intensive."

This is the truth. The two armies confront each other, especially the rebel army is no longer a bandit. All materials must be allocated and transported from the rear of the base area. The Master’s manpower is needed more than tens of millions. A combat soldier needs at least five Labor Masters to worship. How much manpower is needed for a 40,000 army?

Looking at the exhausted third uncle, Chen Che knew that the workload was huge. Huang Long Gu Feng, who was in charge of the general logistics transfer, was even more busy and didn't even have time to complain to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi stood up and saluted his godfather apologized: "Dad, there is really no one here."

"I know, I know, too." Uncle San looked at his son with distress, but he said that, but his expression and eyes were full of hope: "The military supplies cannot be delayed. Chen Che and I have mobilized the old brothers to do our best, so you should think of a way, it is impossible to drag like this."

Seeing the third uncle's complaint, Wu Tao stepped forward and was about to say something, but the third uncle immediately raised his eyes: "Shut up, you guys don't know how to share the worries of the King of Breaking? If you don't come up with your ideas, you little bastards will starve to death."

Wu Tao immediately bowed and hid behind the person. He looked at the commander Guo Tianxing who was gloating in the corner with his head shrank, and was so envious. The commander was still smart. When he saw Uncle San enter the account, he immediately hid himself infinitely.

"And you." Uncle San immediately fired at Tianxing.

"What's the matter with me?" Guo Tianxing stood up innocently, accompanied him with caution, and said with an innocent face.

"What's the matter? What are you? The commander, is it a gatekeeper? This base area has a huge career, and you have a share of it. If you don't help the King of Chuang, your brother, you are good, and you are still hiding in vain. Are you competent?"

When you meet Uncle San, everyone has to retreat. Not only is Uncle San’s backup high, but the most important thing is that Uncle San is honest and fair.

At this time, Lu Shi also saw the life-saving straw and immediately stared at Guo Tianxing with sharp eyes, "Yes, Commander, what can you do to solve the situation in front of you?"

When he saw the people in the tent full of tents, he looked at him in one go, so he looked around first, and saw that there was no way out to escape. So he thrust his chest and said loudly: "The solution is simple. Since he He Renlong does not come to reinforce, why don't we take the initiative to attack? What are we doing, what are we fighting?"

The tent was silent, so my eyes turned back and looked at Lu Shi.
