"Okay, let's break up. We will fight tomorrow. We will rectify the soldiers under our command quickly and must not be neglected."

They used only 500 cavalry troops to fight two battles a day, and they successively carried hundreds of horse thieves from the Luji tribe and hundreds of surrendered from the Bomi tribe. The number of dens and Zhuang in these two tribes was close to 60% of the total number of Jin troops entering Dai County under Lu Yao. Not to mention the so-called Jin troops, most of them were originally bandits... If these people had any abnormal movements, they would be a disaster, not to mention that Lu Yao was still preparing to use them as an important combat force.

To this end, not only did Lu Yao, as the chief general of the entire army, had to work hard to win people's hearts, but officers at all levels could not be careless and had to firmly grasp the team. Lu Yao said a few more words, and the generals dispersed.

There was a sound of horse hooves in the distance, and the cavalry responsible for the guard immediately surrounded him. The vague voice of conversation drifted with the night wind, and it was Zhu Sheng who rushed back. This yellow-faced man from a horse thief had never been involved in the battle today, but Lu Yao knew that he led dozens of capable detectives to explore everywhere, and his responsibility was of great importance and was never inferior to anyone.

Lu Yao stood up and greeted him: "How is it?"

Zhu Sheng dismounted and saluted Lu Yao: "As the general expected, the Luochuan bandits did not find any signs of migration except for sending more scouts and shrinking their manpower. However, the two tribes east of Luochuan are currently busy getting closer, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses is very noisy."

"Okay!" Xue Tong hit each other with his fists and palms, and made a snap.

The current situation puts forward extremely high demands on the reconnaissance scouts. Zhu Sheng, Hu Liuniang, Shao Xu and others worked closely together to firmly grasp the mixed movements around them so that the entire army could seek profit and avoid harm and fight against the most suitable opponents.

For example, what I just mentioned is the target Luochuan thief that everyone determined after several calculations. Luochuan thieves were not bandits in the ordinary sense, but Huhan and Han, and had quite an armed refugee organization. They were entrenched in Luochuan on the Qiyi River, with semi-permanent dock walls and a small amount of cultivated land, and their subordinates were about 800 young and strong. Within the Dai County, this is already a very powerful team. Their source of economy mainly relies on collecting tolls from travelers and travelers, and they also cultivate and livestock on their own. Of course, looting and kidnapping are also their main business.

Shao Xu held a torch and carefully prevented the occasionally splashing sparks from falling on the silk. Ding Miao leaned over from his side and studied the map carefully: "The terrain of Luochuan looks good."

"Daijun was originally a Dai country of Northern Di, and it was the first to build a city in Luochuan. In the late Spring and Autumn Period, Zhao Xiangzi Pingdi Land, killed the Dai King, and named Bolu as the Dai Chengjun. In the tenth year of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Gongzi Jia led hundreds of clans to Dai, becoming the Dai King. In the first month of the sixth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Former Han Dynasty, 53 counties of Yunzhong, Yanmen and Dai County were appointed as the vassal states, and Gaozu's brother Liu Xi, the Marquis of Yixin, was appointed as the Dai King. The capitals of the four Dai countries in the front and rear were all at the former site of the Dai King City on Luochuan." Shao Xu stretched out his thin finger and pointed the dots representing Luochuan on the picture.

When it comes to familiarity with classics and anecdotes, no one can match him. Obviously, being able to be regarded by the dynasties of all generations shows that Luochuan once had a very important position and role. If managed properly, his influence would be enough to radiate to the vast areas west of Youzhou and north of Bingzhou.

"So that's it..." Ding Miao nodded and said, "This is really a good place."

"Yes..." All the generals and the school nodded. These people were experienced generals, so their eyes were naturally together.

Luochuan is located between the county town of Dai County and Feihuyu. This point alone can not only guard the important roads between You and Bingzhou, but also facilitate control of the jurisdiction of Dai County. There are 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. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the geographical environment is very superior. The Qiyi River flows through this place from southwest to northeast, with lush water and grass along the way and fertile soil. If it can be well developed, there will be no problem even if it is placed in tens of thousands of people.

The leader of the Luochuan thieves was a Han man named Mafu. According to Hu Liuniang, this person was very old and was a famous horse thief in the northern border nearly twenty years ago. Although he is old now, his reputation is still there. He can stand in this wild land for decades, and the treasure land of Luochuan and Daiwang City is of course not a simple character.

Shao Xu asked with some doubts: "General, there are a lot of bandits in Luochuan. Now he has reduced his troops and relied on the old city to guard it. He is very cautious. I wonder if the battle will go smoothly tomorrow?"

Lu Yao looked at the soldiers who were resting around and laughed. This was the strong confidence of being a warrior, which was beyond the understanding of the scholar: "War is courage! Don't worry, we will definitely defeat the Luochuan thieves in one go tomorrow." He grabbed the short moustaches left over the past few days and continued: "Then we will use Luochuan as the base camp and break through the surrounding miscellaneous Hus one by one."

Xue Tong interrupted: "Daoming, we have to renovate the ruins of the Dai Royal City so that it can play its role. I think that in the next few days, all the people 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 been disrepaired and cannot accommodate a large army immediately. Mr. Shao, from tomorrow, all the prisoners who have not been incorporated into the army will be managed by you. I will send someone to cooperate with you to repair the city as soon as possible."

"Okay, I will make arrangements immediately." Shao Xu replied.

"If Luochuan's base can be played, the families of the surrendered people can be uniformly supervised and resettled there. In addition, various spoils and supplies can also be properly stored. By the way... there are also wounded people! Mr. Shao, we will fight continuously in the next few days, and there will be no fewer casualties. If the wounded people are stranded in the army, it is likely to affect morale. So we have to move all the wounded people over for treatment. Dai County, Guangchang, Pingshu, and Dangcheng, if there are good doctors in these places, we have to invite them here."

Whenever Lu Yao said something, he would raise a finger: "And, and... Where are the weapons that Xue Tong collected from Douluji's nest? These should be counted as soon as possible and equipped to the soldiers. But be careful that crossbows and armor are important weapons and must be held in the hands of the Jin people; the same is true for other relatively excellent weapons."

He felt that he suddenly became a broken-mouthed woman, and he kept nagging. Even though Shao Xu was a capable aide, he couldn't help but be in a hurry. Lu Yao couldn't help but sigh: "Mr. Shao, you can't be busy, you don't have to be responsible for the distribution of weapons. Lao Xue, thank you for your hard work."

After a while, the generals and school dispersed, and Shao Xu and Xue Tong also took the order. Although the night was already deep, everyone still had a lot of things to be busy with, Lu Yao was free. He carefully stood up and inserted it into a crack in a rock with the torch he took from Shao Xu. With the leaping fire, he continued to look at the map and repeatedly pondered every area and every possible enemy in his heart.

Lu Yao knew that this difficulty was extremely difficult and complicated. Not only did he fight to the death on the battlefield, he also needed extraordinary coordination skills. What was even more difficult was that he did not have enough time to look forward, and he had many difficulties and uncertain futures, but this made Lu Yao feel a strong sense of mission. Hidden under the calm appearance was Lu Yao's extremely excited and eager to try. During the gap of repeated calculations, he whispered to himself: Who else can I do?

While calculating the comparison of troops of various enemies, there was a violent and dense sound of weapons colliding at the edge of the camp.

The soldiers resting in the camp were in a commotion, and then calmed down under the pressure of the officers.

Listening to the sound, you can clearly identify that the two people were fighting fiercely, and it was obvious that Hu'er attacked at night. Therefore, Lu Yao only called He Yunlai: "Go and see what happened. If it is a private fight between his own soldiers, each of them will have twenty military sticks."

"Yes." He Yun rushed over quickly.

After a while, he hurried back, with a hurried look a little embarrassed: "General Qi Ju, a fish from the Bomei team sneaked into the camp. It was not until we approached the place where we were imprisoning the prisoners that they were discovered by the leader of Chen Peichen. The leader of Chen led people to block him and took the lead in arresting him. In addition, Shen Jin had sent additional personnel to search the surroundings of the camp. He asked me to tell the general: Please rest assured, there will be no second one."

No wonder he felt embarrassed. Shen Jin fought with the Hu people countless times in the northern border, and was extremely experienced; he was also proficient in shooting skills and had extraordinary eyesight. He often claimed that he had nowhere to hide under his sharp eyes. Chen Pei was the former cavalry commander of the King of Chengdu, and he also worked under Ji Sang, and was familiar with the skills of hiding the bandits. These two were ordered by Lu Yao and led several elite soldiers to be responsible for the guards of the entire army, which everyone thought was very suitable.

But now, these two people actually let an enemy lurk deep into the barracks! This is not an ordinary matter. The safety of the army camps is the most important. If someone lurks in, whether it is arson, poisoning, or spreading rumors, it may cause huge losses.

In the current situation, not to mention how many people were lurking in, at least Shen Jin and Chen Pei were inevitably beaten with military sticks.
