The battle at Buyeobu Fortress ended in the evening.
When Liu Rengong saw that the situation was over, he actually ran away towards the Bohai Kingdom and was chased and killed by Xia Bing. Afterwards, more than a dozen people argued over who killed Liu Rengong. Shao Chengjie laughed loudly and everyone
I was rewarded with a lot of treasures.
Du Guang hurried in from outside the city again and immediately took stock of the grain, grass and property in the treasury. The result was naturally disappointing.
Liu Rengong is really poor. But such a poor guy still wants to separate himself and stand on his own, which makes people wonder what to say.
"I only have more than 40,000 pieces of food, 90,000 bundles of hay, 30,000 coins, and 170,000 bolts of cloth." Du Guangyi looked at the account book reported by his subordinates, but he still didn't believe it. After checking it again, he finally believed it.
I felt very helpless.
"Why should Yin Du Fu sigh so much?" Shao Chengjie said with a smile: "If you don't have any property, just rob it."
"Even if we rob, we won't be able to grab more than a few cents." Du Guangyi said with a wry smile: "Well, Xian Erzhou has been plundered by the Khitan so much that it has left us extremely poor. There is not much money left."
"It doesn't exist in Fuyu Prefecture, but it does in Changling Prefecture. It doesn't exist in Changling Prefecture, but it does exist in Xijing and Nanjing on the Bohai Sea." Shao Chengjie said: "The governor is in Fuyu to deal with the aftermath, and I will go eastward."
"What?" Du Guang was a little surprised again and asked: "Fuyu is just down the road, so you are in a hurry to attack Changling Prefecture?"
"Why not?" Shao Chengjie said strangely: "The Feilong Army has marched to the borders of Beijing on the Bohai Sea. Most of the bandits have been transferred north. The south is empty and easy to get. I have sent people to collect horses, food and water while it is still cold.
, hit as many as you can to the east."
"Your Majesty is still on the way to Fuyu Mansion. Why don't you wait until the Tianxiong Army arrives before making a decision?" Du Guang advised again.
"Your Majesty has given me the order to march eastward, why wait?"
Du Guang was choked again and asked tentatively: "When did your Majesty give the order?"
"I told you before we sent out the troops." Shao Chengjie said with a smile: "Your Majesty said, 'Erlang, I am fond of a kind of fish, called salmon. In October, when the weather is cold, they will migrate in groups from the sea into the rivers.
My son can catch some and bring them to you."
Shao Shude is actually talking about salmon.
This fish is a type of Pacific salmon, widely distributed in the range of 35 degrees to 70 degrees north latitude and 110 degrees to 140 degrees east longitude. It is a rare cold-water migratory fish.
Among them, the Sea of Okhotsk, the coast of Sakhalin Island and the waters of the Kuril Islands are its key production areas. The fish has delicious meat and extremely high nutritional value.
In the summer and autumn of each year, schools of salmon growing in the North Pacific begin to migrate collectively to freshwater rivers on the shore to lay eggs, forming a fishing season.
This kind of fish is huge, generally weighing seven or eight kilograms, and the larger one weighs twenty or thirty kilograms.
They are born in rivers, live in the sea when they grow up, and return to their birthplace to lay eggs after reaching sexual maturity in 3-5 years.
The whole process is extremely spectacular. The migratory salmon swim upstream without eating or drinking, just to return to their birthplace to reproduce.
The road is extremely dangerous, with numerous shoals and waterfalls. Whenever encountering such a situation, the salmon always exert all their strength and move forward with difficulty. In many shallow places, they move sideways, even rubbing against the gravel on the bottom of the water step by step.
Move over.
When encountering a waterfall or a broken stream, they will even jump up and jump over this dangerous place.
Along the way, foxes, brown bears, giant eagles and other predators stayed in the shallow water, treating the migrating salmon schools as an annual feast.
Many salmon die halfway due to physical exhaustion, human fishing, animal predation and other reasons. Only about 20% of them can finally reach the spawning ground with bruises all over.
After they lay eggs, the big fish will run out of nutrients and die (and lose their food value at this time). The corpses left behind will become one of the food sources for the small fish after birth to provide for their growth and return safely.
sea.
Du Guang had never heard of this kind of fish and was stunned for a moment.
In fact, he had no way to verify whether this was true or not.
Are there schools of fish migrating in the sea? What kind of fish? Do they have to migrate after the weather is cold? Can fish in the sea also survive in freshwater rivers?
No, how come
King Qin went around? Is this a matter of fish? Even if it did, it was just a casual joke between father and son. King Qin, do you take it seriously? Or are you using this as an excuse to go eastward?
"Your Highness..." Du Guangyi took a step forward, waiting for his earnest words of advice, when he saw that Shao Chengjie's soldiers had already brought in the war horses.
"This is absolutely true." Shao Chengjie said with a smile: "I will lead three thousand soldiers from the government, one thousand soldiers from the state, and two thousand warriors from the Qing army to the east. With these six capable soldiers, what can't be accomplished? Don't worry about Du Fuyin.
, feel free to welcome the Holy Master. My father may think that the prefectures and counties in the Bohai Kingdom are too small and need to be merged and reorganized. You'd better review your homework in advance to avoid not knowing everything."
The warriors laughed heartily.
Du Guang also laughed again.
He has worked with both King Zhao and King Qin successively, and their styles are really completely different.
King Zhao was deep-minded and meticulous, and he was very familiar with government affairs. He often visited the fields and was very concerned about every plant and tree in the Andong Mansion. However, he was lacking in martial arts, and his ambition was exposed too early and too hastily.
The King of Qin was extremely brave and generous, and he knew everything in the army like a palm. He hunted and drilled with the warriors every two days, and entrusted most of the government affairs to his subordinates. He only cared about military supplies, money and food, and whether the civil servants he appointed were loyal to their mission.
he.
Both of these two people have shadows of saints, but they are not complete.
"Let's go!" Shao Chengjie took the lead and ran out.
What he was holding in his hand was a walking bow.
Du Guang shook his head and laughed again.
The martial arts of the King of Qin who immediately used the foot bow are indeed extraordinary. Looking at the expressions of admiration on the faces of the soldiers of the Andong Prefecture and the warriors of the Qing Sai Army, perhaps only such brave people can suppress this group of Qiu Ba.
King Zhao has been in Anton for many years, and the warriors have never had this kind of expression.
Heading east from Buyeo Prefecture, it is a total of more than 500 miles, half of which is flat grassland and half of which is mountainous.
They had 6,000 soldiers and more than 15,000 horses, and they moved very quickly. The place they passed was indeed very desolate, and highlighted a sparsely populated Changling Mansion, which was plundered many times by the Khitan.
The loss of property was huge.
But no matter how sparse the population is, there are still people.
Every time the Xia army came to a village, they plundered grain to support the war. Perhaps all the soldiers were recruited north, and the two prefectures of Changling Prefecture were extremely empty. They marched for several days and plundered dozens of villages, but nothing was left.
Find someone to stop them.
On August 15, the army arrived a few miles west of Changling Mansion and took a short rest.
After five days of continuous rapid march, the team has grown very long. There are only more than 2,000 soldiers and more than 5,000 horses following Shao Chengjie. More than a hundred miles to the west, there are still 2,000 people resting and grazing, and then again
To the west, there are still people resting and grazing...
Kang Fu, a soldier from Yingkou County, came over and reported: "Your Highness, we have just received news that General Wang has conquered Hezhou."
"So fast!" Shao Chengjie was picking out maggots from the meat and was greatly surprised when he heard this.
"General Wang" is Wang Yanzhang. He hurried back to Andong Mansion a while ago, recruited thousands of local villagers, and even released a group of prisoners from the reclamation prison, gathering tens of thousands of people, and carried out a large-scale
Going north, after receiving supplies from Gaoershan City, they marched along the mountains and captured Hezhou (today's Shancheng Town, Meihekou City, Jilin) - Changling Prefecture had jurisdiction over Xiazhou and Hezhou, and governed Xiazhou.
In fact, Changling Mansion is no stranger to Xia people.
At that time, King Shao Siwu of Zhao led his troops to the north and successively captured Xincheng, Gaimou, Gaoershan City, Liaoyang and other places. The one who provided them with food and grass at that time was Changling Prefecture.
"Wang Yanzhang is indeed a brave general. He has captured Hezhou and the rear is secure." Shao Chengjie stuffed the meat into his mouth and said while biting it.
Kangfu caught out a white meat insect, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, and said with a smile: "Actually, what if the Hezhou pestle is there? Your Highness, the Bohai people are weak, and our army can fight ten of them."
"On the battlefield, you'd better not think so." Shao Chengjie glanced at him and said, "Although I don't look down on the Bohai people, when I did my homework before the war, I didn't dare to deliberately belittle their combat effectiveness."
At this point, he stopped talking and continued eating meat, obviously not wanting to say more.
In the valley, the cold was very strong. The warriors wearing sweaters didn't feel the cold very much. They ate preserved meat and cheese and drank some rice wine to warm their bodies.
An hour's rest is over.
Shao Chengjie walked up to the war horse, and the horse leaned its head towards him affectionately.
"Horse, horse, charge and kill, but you can't retreat," he said.
The horse snorted and shook its head.
A moment later, thousands of people joined the battle, jogging down the hillside, then slowly accelerating, heading straight towards Xiazhou City.
There was a line of carriages parked outside the gate of Xiazhou City. The situation was not peaceful recently. Scholars and gentry from the countryside rushed into the city to take shelter. Therefore, the gate of the city was very busy from morning to night.
Today is no exception.
The soldiers guarding the city were smiling happily as they collected the money, winking at each other, and joking about where they could go to have a good time.
At this moment, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded in the distance.
The guard stared blankly for a while, but by the time he realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
Someone hurried towards the city and shouted a warning. But midway through the words, an arrow struck him, hitting him right in the back.
Shao Chengjie held a walking bow and fired continuously from his horse. In a moment, four people were shot to the ground by him - every one who tried to get close to the city gate.
Without exception, they were shot dead on the spot.
Someone in the city rushed out of the city in a daze. Before he could ask questions, he was hit by a rushing horse.
Kang Fu laughed loudly and strangely, and smashed the iron in his hand, causing ghosts to cry and wolves to roar wherever he passed.
Not to be outdone, Zhao Jing danced like a tiger with his iron spear, deflecting the spears of the Bohai soldiers who were stabbing him without hesitation, and he became more and more courageous as he charged forward.
Behind them, hundreds of riders had already rushed through the city gate and entered the street.
Shao Chengjie was stopped outside the city by his men.
He was not in a hurry. After dismounting, he held a walking bow and shot down a Bohai Navy colonel who was looking over the top of the city, which immediately aroused unanimous applause.
More and more warriors rushed into the city, and from the sounds of it, there didn't seem to be many fierce fights.
Shao Chengjie was a little tired, it was too easy for Changling Prefecture to fight!
