When Wang Yao’s face gave me a worried expression, another alarm came from the mouth of the guards behind him.
"Your honor, look at the road … the Tiger and Leopard Army has come again. Many cavalry departments are armored cavalry …"
Although there are two cavalry battalions with the main force of the Tiger and Leopard Army behind the cavalry regiment, because everyone is riding a horse and one person is armored, after observing from hundreds of steps, it is impossible to see that this is an infantry riding a horse.
Looking along the direction of the guards’ fingers, one by one, the armored cavalry in Wang Yao’s middle field of vision is like a torrent constantly entering their field of vision …
Chapter one hundred and fifty-four Zhaoyun nu
"How many armored cavalry are there in this butch army …" A full face of shocked Wang Yaozhong once again uttered an exclamation.
Of course, zhaoyun won’t answer this question.
Wei Zheng said that the more mysterious the remaining military strength is after part of the military strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army is displayed, the more fearful and fearful the opponent is.
Zhao Yunneng couldn’t help talking. Qian Zong, a cavalry battalion behind Wang Yaozhong, couldn’t help it.
In the face of the 1,000 armored cavalry behind Zhaoyun, the cavalry battalion was full of fear, and even worse, there was a steady stream of tiger and leopard cavalry coming to Zunhua.
Facing the growing disparity between ourselves and the enemy, Mr. Qian took a deep breath and advised Wang Yaozhong around him, "My Lord, we’d better give some money to the Tiger and Leopard Army …"
Seeing Wang Yaozhong’s silence, Qian Zong, the cavalry battalion, quickly opened his mouth and explained, "Adults don’t say that the butch army has an imperial life. Even if they don’t have an imperial life to send so many cavalry stationed outside Zunhua, we can’t help them …"
"Because the strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army is too strong, far beyond our imagination."
"If we don’t pay them to leave Zunhua early, they might really be stationed outside Zunhua. Then we will not only bear a charge of resisting the purport, but also offend the powerful army of Tiger and Leopard Army … it is not worth the candle … please adults carefully consider the humble proposal."
"Just …" After a sigh full of nai came from Wang Yao’s mouth.
He said to himself behind him, "Now the Tiger and Leopard Army is not ours, but an independent army guarding a mansion at the same level as us. It may be helpful for our future to spend a little money and make good use of this powerful army …"
Say that finish Wang Yao center has made a decision to behind the cavalry thousand total big ordered "your horse back to prepare fifty thousand jins of grain twenty-two thousand silver ticket sent here as soon as possible to give butch army brothers when the road …"
Looking at the cavalry regiment brought back grain wagons and twenty-two thousand silver tickets, Wei Zheng’s face was directly happy, and he was shocked by the side. Kelly Y Zhou said, "See, strategist, this is the benefit of throwing its weight around …"
"Not only show our butch army’s strong strength to others, but we are afraid that we will get ten days’ grain and a month’s salary in vain. If we can get such gains in every county town, we can earn a year’s salary and a few months’ food and grass in vain when we get to Datong …"
Reacting from the surprise, Kelly Y Zhou also smiled from ear to ear because of the white hay.
Glancing at the ten grain wagons piled up with grain in front of him, he said excitedly, "General, we just have hundreds of Xu horses, and I can take them with us if the general can gain something. It’s really impossible for each brother to divide dozens of kilograms of grain or bring hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain …"
"In addition, we should also bring these ten mules and horses. Since Zunhua’s company commanders have sent them out, we will accept them according to the order."
Wei Zheng nodded and answered, "Just look at the military … When we get to Datong House, I promise that all the horses in our hands can be loaded with food …"
Kelly Y Zhou said with a satisfied face, "Then I will thank the general … If we can keep a few hundred camels’ food left, our butch and leopard army can feed for two or three months at least, then our butch and leopard army will become more confident."
Wei Zhengda affirmed, "Then I will tell you that your wish will come true."
With that, Wei Zheng’s eyes have once again shifted to Zhao Yunshen’s big order, "You should have heard what I just said to the colonel and the strategist. Whether the military wish can be realized depends on your cavalry regiment."
"I ordered the vanguard of the Tiger and Leopard Army of the Cavalry Corps to set out to clear the marching road for the main force and how to realize the wish of the strategist. I believe you should have already had experience …"
Yangyuan County, which is less than 200 miles away from Datong Prefecture, is located at the junction of Shanxi Province and North Zhili, in order to prevent refugees from Shanxi Province from entering North Zhili and threatening North Zhili ‘an.
Yangyuan county has a large number of officers and soldiers and cards stationed in all the official roads leading to North Zhili.
Zhao Yun, the commander of the cavalry regiment, has just entered Yangyuan County. A card with 100 officers and men stands in front of Zhao Yun. Not only that, Zhao Yun’s field of vision is hundreds of ragged refugees, and the front line is holding a confrontation with the loyalist with hope that this loyalist can let them enter North Zhili.
Of course, these alone can’t cause Zhao Yun to move. After all, Zhao Yun was also a refugee before he became a bandit
However, when his eyes turned to the rear of hundreds of refugees, a lot of anger suddenly welled up in my heart.
Dozens of bodies are scattered on both sides of the road. Some bodies may have begun to rot, and some vultures are eating carrion around them.
More than a dozen dying refugees around these bodies are lying motionless for death because of hunger.
The families of these refugees sat beside them with despair and watched their loved ones leave them because of hunger.
Seeing this, Zhao Yunke is sure that these bodies are refugees who have just died in recent days.
Watching the refugees turn into corpses because of hunger, the officers and men holding a lot of food in their hands not only did not treat them, but did not even give them a chance to live, preventing them from entering Beizhili.
Facing the huge gap between hell and heaven on both sides of the card, Zhao Yun was angry.
The battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the Cavalry Corps behind him ordered, "Old Chong Wang used to surround all the officers and men in KaKa and take out all our dry food and send it to those refugees. It’s really too bad for them …"
Long ago, I couldn’t stand the loyalist line, and the battalion commander replied, "Just watch the colonel … make sure that no officers and men can run away …"
"Rumble …" After a burst of hooves sounded, hundreds of loyalists and hundreds of refugees stared at 300 armored cavalry with dumbfounded eyes, and they appeared around them as if the magic had descended from heaven.
Three hundred cavalry just flashed their weapons, and just before the refugees, a pair of loyalist horses with their heads held high were scared into little pussies. What’s more, they threw their weapons and knelt down directly because of fear.
In the face of well-equipped cavalry officers and soldiers, they always fought back their fears and trembled, holding their hands and reaching them, and asked the battalion commander of the first battalion
"Your honor, you are … we are carrying out military orders …"
"What’s going on in front of you? Why do you want to set up a card here to prevent refugees from coming over and what are you or not? from ruin watched those refugees starve to death …" A battalion commander asked with a murderous look on his face.
"Ah …" Hearing these questions is like watching an alien, looking at a battalion commander with a puzzled face.
Chapter one hundred and fifty-five New plan
In the eyes of the general manager, refugees are the lowest-ranking people in the whole dynasty, and no matter how many people die, they have never said anything to themselves. They set up cards here to prevent refugees from entering North Zhili. That’s because the court ordered them to do what they were told.
Thinking that he came from Beijing camp, he realized that he would yell at a battalion commander in front of him and hope that a battalion commander would mind his own business.
However, when he saw hundreds of well-equipped and murderous cavalry around him, he still fought back his dissatisfaction and replied with a smiling face, "Let the general laugh. We were ordered by Beijing Camp to set up cards here to prevent refugees from entering Beizhili. General from ruin wronged us and we didn’t have a lot of food."
"And so many of them gave it to them that we didn’t eat it."
"Besides, it is better to give food to these refugees and feed them to pigs …"
Without food, I saw thousands of kilograms of food piled up in the other camp. Isn’t this nonsense with your eyes open?
However, although Zhao Yun was angry and full of contempt for the loyalist in front of him, he didn’t make any drastic moves and motioned a battalion commander to bring one hundred loyalists to the card and then directly ordered the Ministry to prepare the dry food and take it out.
When Wei Zheng personally led the main force of Tiger and Leopard Army to KaKa, hundreds of refugees felt much better because of their food. Not only that, Zhao Yun also learned from some of the refugees about the current bad situation in Datong Prefecture.
"General, as far as I know, the number of refugees in Datong Prefecture is less than that in the whole Datong Prefecture. Because of the continuous looting of Shanxi by Shaanxi rebels, it has increased from more than 10,000 to more than 50,000 for a short time, forcing the court to send troops to set up traffic arteries to prevent refugees from entering North Zhili and threatening North Zhili ‘an."
"Fifty thousand refugees are so many …" Zhaoyun just finished this sentence and Kelly Y Zhou exclaimed that it had already come from his mouth.
Looking at Wei Zheng with a worried face, he woke up and said, "General, so many refugees are a very huge hidden danger for us to stick to Datong House soon. If we can’t deal with them in time, I’m worried that these refugees will make trouble in our rear area when we fight against Shaanxi rebels."
"Because none of us know whether there are any lurking rebels among the 50 thousand refugees."
"If the rebels really hide a large number of soldiers among these refugees, it is very likely that they will attack us on the battlefield in the future, and then we will be caught between Scylla and Charybdis."
Zhao Yun followed closely and continued to report, "General, I think it is reasonable for the strategist to worry."
"As far as hundreds of refugees are concerned, they are all young and strong because of long-term hunger and migration. If China really hides, we don’t know the rebels. The rebels can definitely pull up a new rebel from behind for a short time."
"In addition, according to what I learned from the loyalist general manager, because Shaanxi rebels are getting closer and closer to Datong House, the number of refugees pouring into Datong House has also increased dramatically. According to the general manager, there are at least 2,000 refugees entering Datong House every day, and hundreds of people are scattered in the tens of thousands of refugee departments."
"What’s more, some refugees have been able to live and have evolved into bandits …"
When they talked one after another, they kept calm and their facial expressions remained unchanged because of thinking.
However, Kelly Y Zhou and Zhao Yun didn’t think that it was Wei Zheng’s thinking, not how to solve the threat that these refugees might pose to themselves, but how they should benefit these refugees and let a large number of refugees go to my place.
Just when Kelly Y Zhou and Zhaoyun looked at Weizheng at the same time, a little weird smile just passed from Weizheng’s face.
To Kelly Y Zhou, a face of mystery said, "Where did our butch army’s annual salary come from after we entered Datong Mansion? In this troubled times, we have a foothold in money. We are bound to expand our army. Where do we get this army’s salary?"
After a short meditation, Kelly Y Zhou replied, "Don’t count on the imperial court. If the Ministry of War gives us a salary every year, we can support two regiments at most, and we must rely on our Tiger and Leopard Army Datong House to solve it on the spot."
Wei Zheng nodded and continued to ask, "There are two ways to solve the outbound call yourself. The first way is to find a way to set up a card to exploit the people in Datong. Another way is to apportion the officials, gentry and landlords in Datong and ask them for food and grass."
"But after looking at this situation, the first one will definitely not work. Where is the money and food for us to exploit when ordinary people can’t even support themselves?"
"In the second article, I am awed by the tiger and leopard army’s military power. The officials, gentry and landlords in Datong may also see that we are here to defend Datong, protect them and give us some money, but what about after we beat back the rebels? Without life threatening, will the officials and landlords still pay us back? "
"In addition, I also have a word to warn you that if we Tiger and Leopard Army really want to find out that the source of salary can never be entrusted to others, but should have its own source of salary."
"At present, these refugees seem to be burdensome on the surface, but if we can fix them, these refugees are the best source of our salary, and we will control the channels ourselves."
Kelly Y Zhou has read and read some military books, and he is very clear about the importance of logistics to an army. Counting the history, how many fighting capacities and powerful troops are all due to the lack of logistics supplies, which eventually leads to the end of an army’s collapse.
After listening to the analysis of Wei Zheng, Kelly Y Zhou directly affirmed, "General, I completely agree with your analysis."
"With so many refugees, how can we benefit them?"
In combination with the history, there are already concrete ideas in my heart. Wei Zheng didn’t answer with a horse, but asked with a serious face …
"The strategist calculates how much food they need for a month if they don’t starve to death according to 100 thousand refugees."
