- #734 - Chapter 726: The rear army eats meat and we drink soup (please double monthly votes!)
“General, I hope the city of Xiangxiang will burst into flames!”
Ding Jiao narrowed his eyes and looked far away in the direction of Wangxiangcheng.
“That’s it, let’s go!”
After five thousand fine cavalry galloped for two hours, another spy came to report.
“General, Zhuyuan City is bursting with smoke!”
Ding Jiao reined in his horse and stopped, frowning tightly.
“Bring me the map!”
Someone immediately got off the horse and took out the leather roll on his back. The two of them cooperated and quickly unfolded it.
“General, we are here.”
The lieutenant pointed to the map, showing their current position.
Ding Jiao looked at it for a moment and said coldly: “I only saw smoke rising, but no news came back. The worst-case scenario is that both cities will be captured by the Guanzhou Army.”
“General, these two border cities are high and strong. How could the Guanzhou Army conquer them two cities in a row!” The deputy general expressed confusion.
Ding Jiao thought for a moment, and his expression became even more condensed.
“If the prince falls into the hands of Guanzhou and threatens him, it will be easy to break open the city gate.” He focused his eyes on the map and ordered in a deep voice: “Vice General Zhou, you lead three thousand troops to cast the Yuan. Vice General Cao, you Lead four thousand people to Wangxiang, and the remaining three thousand people will go here with me.”
He pointed to a place on the map and continued: “This place is the place that must be passed back to Guanzhou. Once it is confirmed that the people attacking the city are the Guanzhou army led by Yun Yan, we will immediately lead our troops to drive them here. Meet everywhere.”
…
The damp smell in the air makes people feel slightly cold.
The stone lions on the city wall still look majestic and solemn, and they still stand tall after being baptized by wind and rain.
At this time, Wangxiang City had fallen silent, with no pedestrians on the street. There were only a few drops of water remaining after the rain, falling from the eaves onto the stone road, making a crisp sound.
These peaceful sounds of raindrops were suddenly disrupted by the sound of rushing and rushing.
“Quick, move faster!”
“The rear army eats meat and we drink soup. I managed to get the job of cleaning up the aftermath. Don’t relax. You can’t take everything back this time. Pick the useful ones and the expensive ones. Do you understand? Expensive ones!” “Yan Laoer pulled his neck and shouted.
The attack on Wangxiang City was not as smooth as that on Zhuyuan City, but it was finally won.
There are some interludes in the middle.
A guard station near Wangxiang City returned to the city for rotation, and found something wrong, so he immediately returned to the guard station and lit up the smoke.
Therefore, the smoke was not lit by Zhuyuan City, but spread one by one by the Xirong Guards…
Boy, I was really nervous at that time.
Fortunately, his eldest brother made a decisive decision and urged the prince to divide his troops and attack the defense posts.
At that time, Wangxiang City had just been captured, and there was no time to bundle up the living, collect the dead, or load things into the truck.
The army hurriedly left the city and scattered in all directions to attack other people’s guards.
The city is in chaos.
He is still his eldest brother, sitting in charge of the county government, and his aura is at its peak.
The old man in Wangxiangcheng sitting beside him was even more imposing than him.
He forced the government servants in Wangxiang City to work, collect corpses, appease the people, and set up big pots for cooking.
Those who stayed in the city came here to fill their stomachs quickly.
The clerical assistant of the county government took the register and went to look for the person.
Everyone who is in Jiangji will be taken away.
After beheading two government servants who were both obedient and treacherous, the county government official instantly became his elder brother’s close friend, doing whatever he was asked to do.
The entire Wangxiang City was trembling with noise, which was completely different from the atmosphere in Zhuyuan City that day.
The rear army had more time to clear out the two barns of the military camp and the county government office, the armaments warehouse, the gunpowder warehouse… and also confiscated the residences of several officials, including the eldest man of Wangxiang City, whose family was very poor. So thick!
The gold and silver were all being pulled out in boxes. The gold and silver jewelry on the women’s house was clacked down. They didn’t even take care of the fine fabrics in the south. They threw them into the car in the rain and waited for them to be bundled. Just cover it with a big raincloth and that’s it. I don’t know what it will look like when it’s shipped back.
After this incident, Yan Laoer discovered that the rear army was more bandit than bandit. I’m afraid they didn’t perform well in Zhuyuan City. They were familiar with each other once and twice. In Wangxiang City, they were more relaxed and started really neat.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that Yan Ziqi still had a lot to learn from Hou Jun.
Then his eldest brother did something very explosive.
He, he, he, forced people from Wangxiangcheng to work as transporters, and wrote serious announcements with the seal of the great master.
Not counting being a transporter, you also have to ask people to bring their own means of transport, which means they have to bring their own oxen, donkeys, mules and carts. If not, just a pole and two baskets…
There were more than one iron mine near Wangxiang City. The rear army not only found iron, but also a small amount of copper!
That’s copper!
What happened to the lack of copper in the imperial court? The price of copper remained high.
If anyone is found to have privately cast copper utensils among the people, they can be immediately taken back and beaten before being charged with a crime.
There should be a copper mine in Xizhou, but King Qi kept it a secret. Otherwise, he was rich, and he could just guard a copper mine and live there for a lifetime.
The main task of civilians is to transport these copper and iron ores.
By the time the prince came back from the guard post, the city was in order.
Because there were many people and things going back to Guanzhou, Shi Yunyan temporarily changed the retreat route. Instead of returning from the original route, he chose to take a detour outside Guanzhou.
As the biological younger brother of his eldest brother, Yan Laoer enjoyed a lot of bad treatment… no, fake… no, oops, in short, it was just a different treatment.
They, Yan Ziqi, were not assigned any tasks and could just wander around.
In other words, just do something.
Yan Laoer sent people around to check for any gaps and make up for them.
In the end, I found that I still had to pick the leftovers from other people’s rear armies.
No, he just took over the task of dealing with the aftermath.
The first is to continue to guard the city gate to prevent anyone from leaving the city to report news.
The second is to light the beacon tower at the appointed time.
In the words of his brother, when the smoke smoke was lit at the guard station, even if it was not clear because of the rain, don’t bet on anything, and be fully prepared to be safe.
The reason why Yan Laoer was able to grab this job was because they and Yan Ziqi were experienced in walking outside the customs. After several times of going out of the customs, they never got lost.
Because of his brother’s strong sense of direction, Yan Huaiwen told him several times to catch up early and not to delay.
The feeling of worry and worry overflowed on his face.
Yan Laoer is very sensible and nods like he is pounding garlic.
He knew that his brother was still pointing him to lead the way.
His brother is good at everything, but his sense of direction is extremely poor. However, he is shy and never lets others know. If the prince still maintains the attitude of asking for advice modestly in everything, then his eldest brother is very likely to be led into a ditch by the army. …
“Qi Da, didn’t I say that we are short on time, so I won’t offload this.” Yan Laoer looked helpless, and asked why he didn’t see the three brothers of the Qi family just now. These three people are doing the work for several others, and they are the main force. When I came, it turned out that I was going to unload the bed crossbow on the city wall.
Qi Dahanhan scratched his head and whispered: “Aren’t you curious? It didn’t take us much effort to dismantle it. It’s just… we accidentally broke this pole.”
Not a family, don’t enter the same door.
Yan Laoer: My eldest brother always shocks me in various ways!
Yan Huaiwen: I have a headache. My Tianyou is always thinking about those three melons and two jujubes. I will give you an example, brother, so you can see what it means to really sweep the city!
Waiter: Crying, I don’t have enough time to run to Wangxiang City, so I can only light a beacon tower randomly to confuse the enemy’s sight.
