Chapter 158 Surrounding Three Que One

Liang Xi took two soldiers and walked towards the city gate. He had to report to Sun Yu. He had gotten so much money for nothing. It was all his own credit and he couldn't bury it.

"Yes, this matter was done very well. As long as the following things are done well, I will not hesitate to reward you." When Sun Yu heard this, Liang Xi got nearly ten thousand taels of silver and food for himself in the time it took Liang Xi to go out for a while.

More than three thousand stones, this is much more dignified than going to rob families and homes by yourself. It seems that keeping this person is the right choice.

"That's not all. I'll go back and lead a group of government officials to mobilize the big households in the city and the squires from the surrounding villages to raise more supplies for the army." Liang Xi handed over his hand. This horse was the right one. He is expected to take this position.

Stable.

"Pay attention to the scale, and you can't force the people into desperation. In addition, there is no need to conscript ordinary people." Of course, Sun Yu wants to get more money and food, but he has to grasp the scale carefully. If there is turmoil, he will have no plans to attack Quanzhou.

Unfavorable. I will lead troops to Yongchun County early tomorrow morning. I will leave two thousand men to garrison in Dehua County. If there is trouble and the food route is cut off, I will have no choice but to withdraw my troops.

"Sir, my subordinates know all the affairs of each family very well. If you dare to use your head as a guarantee, nothing will go wrong." Liang Xi asserted that he and the officials knew exactly how much property each family had. When this large army enters the city, as long as

It is the right thing to not plunder the countryside and reward the army with some money and food. Both of us can understand it, as long as it is not too much. You can't force others to lead the army to the door. Isn't it uncomfortable?

It's a waste of money and people.

"Well, in that case, you will be responsible for all government affairs and county government personnel. Go ahead!" Sun Yu nodded. This harvest is quite good. Dehua County has been stable for many years.

It is much richer than the land of Jianzhou.

At dawn the next day, the people of Dehua County were surprised to find that all the troops who entered the city yesterday had quietly withdrawn, and the county had returned to its former prosperity and tranquility.

In Dongban Township, Dehua County, the county magistrate Li Lianfeng returned to his hometown overnight yesterday and held a family meeting early this morning. The whole family would have to work together to do this. Since everyone relies on him to grow the house, he would have to sell everything.

"Brother, this is too much. How can it be like this? Isn't this costing people's lives?" The second son of the Li family was not happy when he heard this. In order to provide money and food, he had to mobilize the manpower of the village and recruit the peasants. These things are not easy to do.

It's like cutting meat.

"Second brother, do you think your wings have stiffened and you can fly on your own? I put my words here. If anyone can't do it, don't blame me for turning your back on others. If someone is good or bad in the future, don't come to me."

Li Lianfeng slapped the table. As the clan leader and the magistrate of Dehua County, I am not begging you, or for the continuation of the family.

"Brother, calm down. Don't you think it's a bit too much for the second brother? You can discuss with that person again and see if it can be a little less." The third brother looks like he's going to have a breakdown. That's serious. They're all brothers, so

As long as the boss can speak up on the scene, many things are pointed at him.

"Why don't you go and discuss it with that adult? One by one, you know that looking at those three melons and two dates, things have changed, you know? This Jianzhou Army can be regarded as Qiu Wufei, and everyone has to be wise. Really

If something bad happens, it will be too late to regret it." Li Lianfeng didn't have the guts to count yesterday.

All the words have been reported, and now you are going to say that you can’t get them out? What’s the difference between that and courting death?

"Brother, you are the only official in our family, how can I say anything?" The third child smiled sarcastically, he didn't have the guts.

"You also know that I almost couldn't come back yesterday. If I hadn't known better, we would have been escorted to the mine by now. Do you know about the mine? It's the kind that mines iron. Who wants to tell me?

, I promise to satisfy him." After Li Liancheng finished speaking, he glanced at the second, third, and third brothers, as well as the various branches, they were all a bunch of people who regarded money as their lives.

"This is the breakdown of the apportionment for each house. Take it and take a look. Don't bargain with me. I know your family's wealth and it won't hurt your bones. Take it out. Everyone will live a comfortable life in the future. Take it

If you can't come out, just find another job." Li Lianqi took out the paper from his arms, handed it to the old man, and directly picked up the tea cup on the main seat to drink. He knew exactly what these people were like.

Chu, as long as there is a chance, he will push if he can, and rely on him if he can. But if he really gets angry, no one will dare to explode.

After Li Lianqi finished his cup of tea, everyone present read the details and remained silent. After all, no one would be happy to lose so much money and food all at once.

"Okay, everyone has finished reading. Don't cry sadly. This is not the first time that the officers and soldiers from the north have come to this boundary. What happened last time. Everyone here should also know. They were all very old at that time. Now they can have

This situation is quite difficult. We should all be thankful that money is an external thing. As long as we can live a peaceful life, it doesn't matter." Let's just force a showdown on this matter. I'm afraid that I won't be able to work hard in the future, and I won't be able to work every day.

Staring and coaxing him a bit, it was quite difficult for him to be the patriarch of a big family.

"The patriarch is right. My father was in that accident. Over the years, thanks to the care of the patriarch, I am what I am today. I will subscribe to the money and food, and I will go back to deliver the military rations. I will personally take the people there to ensure that nothing happens.

." A middle-aged man from the branch stood up and said that a man must not forget his roots. He was very grateful to Li Lianfa.

"Okay, eldest nephew, I will leave it to you to recruit civilian husbands this time. I read you right. You can do something good in this matter. If you do a good job and get praise from the Jianzhou Army, uncle, I will definitely be there for you.

I'm looking for a job in the Yamen." He came back too late yesterday and didn't have time to ask for help, which is why he fell into this situation. Now that someone has come forward, Li Lianfa is naturally happy. Besides, this is not an empty talk. If things are done well, he can find them himself.

For a reason, to find a job, no one can say anything.

When everyone in the house saw this posture, they all nodded hastily. After all, there is no way to escape, so it is better to show off. You may have to rely on others in the future. Although Li Liancheng has been an official for many years, the affairs within the clan have always been very serious.

It's fair and everyone is convinced.

At dawn, the Jianzhou Army set off and would arrive in Yongchun County tonight, so as not to give the other side too much time to react. There were many pedestrians and merchants on the official road from Dehua County to Yongchun County. Although the cavalry blocked the road yesterday,

This news will definitely reach Yongchun County today. It is impossible to expect it to be taken by surprise.

It was only a hundred miles in total, but the mountain road was difficult to travel. It was not until the sky was full of stars that the Jianzhou Army arrived in Yongchun County. To deal with Yongchun County, Sun

Yu then adopted the method of surrounding three buildings and leaving the south gate open. Now I am afraid that the news of Jianzhou Army's entry into Quanzhou can no longer be concealed, so let's speak with strength and show the prestige of Jianzhou Army.

The third and fourth regiments launched attacks from the east and west gates respectively, holding back the opponent's defenders. The first and second regiments attacked head-on. New siege vehicles were being assembled and would be put to use tomorrow.

The whole Yongchun County was in chaos. The defenders who got the news in the afternoon sent people to Quanzhou for help and organized young men to go to the city to help. The entire city in Yongchun County was filled with torches, and there were figures on them, obviously in the crowd.

Prepare defensive fortifications.

"Sir, why don't you shoot your fucking ass first?" Lao Cheng looked at the opponent's fortifications. Every time they were strengthened, it would be more difficult tomorrow.

"Forget it, make arrangements for guarding the camp. Have a good rest tonight and recuperate your energy." The other party is determined to defend, and there is little point in firing a few rounds of arrows. They have been driving all day today, and the soldiers are exhausted. Besides, Sun

Yu is confident that tomorrow's siege vehicle should bring surprises.

"General Gao, can we wait until the reinforcements arrive?" Ding Liuqiu, the magistrate of Yongchun County, looked at the camp under the city with a solemn expression. The scale of this camp far exceeded the manpower in his own city. Looking at the opponent's formation, he thought they were well-trained elites.

.

"I don't know. The news will reach Quanzhou tonight. However, General Zhang is not in Quanzhou. He must have arrived in Zhangzhou soon. I don't know what happened to the defenders in Dehua County. Not even a message has been sent. It is really useless.

Extremely." Gao Qi, the guard, shook his head and did his best to obey fate. How long he can defend depends on the opponent's strength.

"Brothers fighting against the wall will inevitably attract wolves. The two generals made a mistake." Magistrate Ding shook his head. If it hadn't been for this, what if the other party arrived at the city? The reinforcements would arrive tomorrow. But now we don't know where the army is.

We don’t know when we will get the news, and as for the arrival of help, that is even further away.

By the way, Zhang Hansi led his men in pursuit all the way. They had already left Jinjiang and were about to reach the territory of Tong'an County. Chen Hongjin abandoned his helmet and armor and just wanted to return to Zhangzhou as soon as possible. There were people falling behind along the way. From the first five days,

There were six thousand people, but now there are only about four thousand left.

"Father, eat some." Chen Qisi handed a piece of cooked horse meat to Chen Hongjin. During the escape, he had already lost all his food and luggage, so he relied on some dry food he carried with him. He ran out of food yesterday.

Even if we send people to collect some along the way, it will still be a drop in the bucket. We have no choice but to kill the horses and eat their meat, which is better than starving to death.

"What a sin!" Chen Hongjin took a bite. These horses were obtained by him through all possible means, and now they were killed for meat. This time it was really too miserable. It would not take three to five years for them to recover.

"The young general should be here tomorrow. I am humble enough to make the decision, so I killed ten horses." Chen Qisi was also quite reluctant to give up, but he had no choice. If he didn't have enough to eat, he wouldn't be able to run anymore. If they were all wiped out.

, even if we return to Zhangzhou, I’m afraid it won’t mean much.

Chen Hongjin nodded, as long as he had enough to eat. As soon as he started to flee, he sent Chen He to lead dozens of light cavalry and went back to Zhangzhou to move reinforcements. Zhang Hansi followed closely behind him. He had all the food and grass, and he could also get supplies from various counties along the way.
