This work lasted from morning to night, and by the time the resettlement work was roughly completed, it was already completely dark.
Every one of the generals of the Gale Force Army was dizzy and exhausted. They attacked the enemy and drove the enemy ten times their size like sheep. They had done this more than once or twice, but when they placed 100,000 people, a big girl got on the sedan chair.
, the first time, the experience, the hard work and hardship, it is really unbearable to remember.
What is even more tragic is that after the resettlement, Qin Feng and other senior generals still did not get the opportunity to have close contact with the long-awaited felt couch. Instead, they were caught by the commander-in-chief Zhao Yun, who convened a military meeting to discuss the next action.
"I think that Brother Guorang's statement is very reasonable, so for the time being, I will let the matter of marching into the army go. I have some ideas on how to arrange and control the prisoners..." Zhao Yun said enthusiastically, completely
Regardless of the generals, the face has turned into a bitter gourd.
"If I had known earlier, I should have followed the precedent and killed everyone. Otherwise, why would we be in trouble now?" Qin Feng lowered his head and muttered in a low voice. When Zhao Yun explained to Tian Yu before, he felt that what Zhao Yun said made sense.
, but after today's placement, he finally realized what Zhao Yun's order meant.
With more than 100,000 prisoners left behind, plus 100,000 Han civilians, the galloping cavalry's hooves are completely tied up. Let's let go of the invasion for the time being? Can we not let it go? There are more than 200,000 people! If you want to protect some of them, you still have to let them go.
To guard against and control the other part, there is no question whether the number of people in the Gale Force Army is enough, so what is there to say about entering the army?
Even if the internal affairs are properly handled, with more than 200,000 people, the marching speed will definitely be as fast as a snail, not to mention running back and forth like the wind. If you encounter an enemy, you will not be able to run away. You can only carry it to death.
.If you accidentally encounter a large group of troops retreating from Xianbei, you may lose all your previous profits.
Thinking of the days ahead, Qin Feng's heart became gloomy and he felt like crying.
"Does the general mean to imitate Xianbei? Disperse and resettle the tribesmen?" On this issue, the only one who can keep up with Zhao Yun's pace is Tian Yu. Don't look at Qin Feng and others who are all complaining. In fact, in
In the resettlement work, Tian Yu alone played a greater role than a group of them.
Qin Feng would not feel inferior for this. He is just a military commander. Why should he care about the affairs of these civil servants?
When the Xianbei people escorted the Han people, they separated each family. The biggest advantage of this was to prevent the Han people from escaping. The Han people valued the family far more than the Xianbei people. Even if an individual had the opportunity to escape, they would
I also think about rescuing the whole family together.
As soon as Xianbei's strategy of breaking up the Han people came out, it was difficult for the Han people to find their families, let alone the whole family fleeing? Therefore, when Micah sent out troops to attack the Han army, he only left a few hundred people to guard them, but he was still able to do so with ease.
"Exactly." Zhao Yun smiled and nodded, not feeling uneasy about being seen to be learning from others.
"But the Hu people don't seem to value family that much, right?" Tian Yu thought for a while and raised a new question.
He is not looking for trouble. It is the duty of the staff to fill in the gaps. The tradition of the Qingzhou Army is that the speaker is not guilty, and everyone is encouraged to speak freely without reservation. Tian Yu is a very thoughtful person. He has been with the army for nearly a month, so naturally
Into this atmosphere.
"Indeed. Hu people regard their wives as property. If their wives and children are kidnapped, it is like a businessman who has lost his capital and worked hard to earn it back. He will not have the same scruples as we Central Plains people, such as throwing a rat into a trap." Zhao Yun
He nodded and agreed with Tian Yu's statement that although the Hu people and the Han people look similar, they are very different in all aspects.
If someone captures Gaotang City and captures all the family members of the entire army, even with the strength of the Hussars, the morale of the army may collapse at any time. But for the Xianbei people, the loss of hundreds of thousands of family members is not a big deal.
The pain is unbearable. Anyway, there are many small tribes accompanying the army. All they have to do is annex them.
"Separating the barbarians is not to prevent them from escaping, but to prevent them from rebelling." Zhao Yun further explained his thoughts: "According to Qin Xiaowei and others, ordinary shepherds and women are very ignorant.
Although they are also very cruel, they are originally driven and oppressed by others in the tribe, so those elders are the key..."
The living conditions on the grasslands are very harsh. Elderly people are usually regarded as a burden and it is difficult for them to have a good death. On the other hand, people in the grasslands do not have a systematic inheritance of knowledge. Knowledge must be taught by word of mouth. The experience of the elderly
, experience is a very valuable asset.
As a result, the elder system came into being. Ordinary elderly people can only fend for themselves after losing the ability to work, but outstanding elderly people will become elders and can play a key role in major decisions of the tribe.
.
In fact, this is essentially the same thing as the wealthy families in the Central Plains, except that the rise and fall cycles of tribes on the grasslands are very short, and these grassland families do not have the conditions for long-term inheritance.
"Without the guidance of these elders, these hundreds of thousands of herdsmen, women and children are just a mob, and they can't find a leader if they want to cause chaos. What's more, according to the laws of the grassland, as victors, our army can kill these people alive.
So, as long as the organization is good, there won't be any trouble."
"The general's words make sense, so let's do this, but..."
Tian Yu thought seriously for a moment, spread out the map on the table, pointed and said: "The position our army is currently in is a bit... sensitive. If there are no prisoners and people, this place would be the best. It is convenient for Qingqi to move around.
, but now, even if the prisoners are stabilized, in this place where there is always the risk of being attacked, I am afraid..."
"If it is transferred, firstly, the team will be too large and the movement will be slow. Secondly, although Xianbei intends to retreat, it is still besieging Juyong City. There may be a big battle. The general will escort the people and prisoners, and I am afraid it will be delayed.
Got a military plane."
Military generals throughout the ages do not like prisoners very much, and there are many people who kill prisoners. This is the reason. Prisoners are cumbersome and troublesome, and there are hidden dangers. If they are released, the results of the battle will be weakened.
This time, Zhao Yun had no idea. The biggest problem of the Gale Wind Army now is that it is isolated and has no source of intelligence. Mika's tribe set out very early, and the situation in Youzhou changed quickly. Without these burdens, Zhao Yun would definitely be
Do you want to enter the customs to find out what's going on? Now...
"Report..." Just as he was in trouble, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent. The next moment, the messenger opened the door and came in, loudly announcing: "General, a messenger has arrived from Ji County!"
"Messenger from Ji County?" Zhao Yun was shocked and stood up. Everyone also looked at each other in shock.
How could the messenger from Jixian County find this place? The last time the Gale Force Army reported its position to the rear was before they attacked Danhan Mountain. After that, they fought thousands of miles away and had no time to report to the rear. It is not yet known when the messenger from Jixian County came out.
Being able to find him directly...does he have a good ear?
It can't be fake, right?
"This is Colonel Mu..." The messenger who came to report was very smart and knew what the general was surprised about. He explained all the doubts in one sentence.
Mu Wang joined the army at the same time as Xu Shu, and his seniority is still higher than that of Zhao Yun. He is a direct descendant of Wang Yu's confidant. Many people in the army know him, so it is impossible to cheat.
"Quick, please come quickly!" Zhao Yun was overjoyed and ordered repeatedly.
Not long after, Mu Wang came in with a weather-beaten face and ragged clothes. The white side of the cloak had turned into gray-black, but the khaki side still had the appearance of the old days. There were several gaps in the well-made leather armor.
, after many days, there were still faint traces of blood. The most embarrassing thing was his leather boots, which had a big hole in the front, and his toes could be clearly seen.
"How come Captain Mu is in such a mess?"
"How did you find the wood? You are from Jixian. So, my lord has indeed arrived in Jixian?"
"Captain Mu, looking at you like this, you have suffered a lot. It seems that you have experienced fierce battles, more than one... You didn't come here after Mika's team, right?"
Seeing the appearance of their colleagues, everyone was surprised and worried at the same time. They exchanged greetings. Mu Wang suddenly felt dizzy. It took him a while to grasp the key point and put aside Tian Yu and others.
He exchanged pleasantries with Qin Feng and others about unimportant questions, and he answered Zhao Yun's question.
"General Zilong is right, the last general came after Mika..." He briefly explained the things he had experienced before breaking up with Li Shiyi and others, and then explained: "The last general heard that
After hearing the news, I was worried about the safety of the Gale Army, but I didn’t know the whereabouts of the general. I had no choice but to catch up with the Mika tribe first. I ran into several barbarian rovers on the way..."
As he spoke, he looked a little sad. Among the eight elite scouts that day, one was killed and one was seriously injured while rescuing people. Two less seriously injured people were brought back to Jixian County. Huang Ze stayed behind to lead the refugees to save themselves, and Li
Shiyi went on the road alone, and he took a companion to go north. As a result, during the battle with the barbarian rangers on the road, the companion died in the battle to cover him.
"Don't laugh, lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times. Mu Mu, don't be too sad. Zeng Zheng died gloriously, without losing the face of the Hussars. He will have future generations to worship his heroic spirit forever."
Enjoy the worship." Qin Feng comforted him seriously.
"Brother Qin is right." Mu Wang nodded, calmed down, and said solemnly: "General Zilong has a keen eye, he saw through the Hu people's treacherous plot, and he used it to his advantage. The last general's warning can only be regarded as repairing the situation. Fortunately, the last general
This is not why I came here. My lord clearly saw Wanli, but he thought of the current situation and gave the order to the general."
"Oh?" Zhao Yun didn't bother to comfort Mu Wang, and his heart was full of surprises. Fortunately, he was a little confused now, and Wang Yu's order came like a timely rain. What was surprising was that Wang Yu could only attack Danhan by himself.
Shan's actions predicted today's situation, which was like predicting the future.
"What are your orders, my lord?" he asked urgently.
Mu Wang pulled out a small knife and slashed the side of his cloak, revealing a small package wrapped in oil paper. He opened the package and found three tips bags inside. He selected one of them and handed it to Zhao Yun: "General, please take a look...
