"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 958
The Qinghe Army launched a massive attack, and Luyang Province was also in turmoil, and everyone was in danger.
King Ning naturally didn't want the territory of Luyang Province to be taken away by the Qinghe Army, so he hurriedly dispatched troops to try to block the Qinghe Army.
The eldest son Long Jun took the initiative to ask for Ying, willing to lead the army to hold back the Qinghe army first, and then wait for the army to return to help.
King Ning was pleased that his family was still reliable at this time, and at the same time, he also handed over all the troops stationed in the provincial capital to his son Long Jun.
Apart from the 10,000 powerful cavalry, there were only 12,000 infantry stationed in the capital of Luyang Province, and 4,000 infantry had to be left to guard the city, so only 8,000 infantry could go to the front line.
The menacing Qinghe army marched northward. With such a small force alone, it was absolutely impossible to stop the Qinghe army. Therefore, the prefectures and counties in Luyang Province also issued urgent call-up orders.
"The thieves are coming to attack. From now on, 50 people from each village will be selected to go to the front line to fight!"
The messengers of the mighty army galloped through the villages and towns of various prefectures, counties, and towns, conveying the urgent call-up order of King Ning.
"Why are the bandits attacking at this time?"
"I heard that the former general's more than 100,000 troops have all been wiped out. The bandit army is not doing well this time."
"But spring plowing is about to start. If we all go to war, what will happen to the crops in the field?"
Facing the emergency call-up order issued by King Ning, people in all prefectures, counties and villages in Luyang Province were panicked, and the people were caught in a dilemma.
After all, it is the best time for spring plowing. If all the strong laborers in the family are going to fight now, then the spring plowing will definitely not be completed on time.
Moreover, the battlefield was extremely dangerous. They already knew that the Qinghe army was powerful, so it was still a question of whether they could come back alive after going there.
In addition, in order to form a mighty army, King Ning has recruited a large number of young people from various prefectures, counties, villages and towns to join the army.
At this moment, the number of civilians in various prefectures and counties has been greatly reduced. If they are recruited again, there may only be orphans and widows left in the villages and towns.
It is precisely because of this that in the face of the emergency call-up order issued by King Ning, countless people were pushed to a crossroads of difficult choices.
King Ning also went to the doctor in a hurry, because most of the troops under his command were deployed in the border areas.
The army in the southern area was wiped out, and the army in the north could only be dispatched urgently to go south.
However, it takes time to mobilize the army to go south, and it is far from being thirsty, so I came up with the decision to recruit Minzhuang.
In King Ning's view, as long as these folks are recruited and deployed to various key pass cities to assist the army in guarding them, they can slow down the Qinghe army's offensive pace and buy them some time.
Ning Wangguang thought about urgently recruiting the people to assist the army in fighting, but he didn't understand the situation of the people at all.
At this time of spring plowing, if the seeds cannot be sown, there will be no food and hunger.
Moreover, the lives and deaths of the former batch of children from their hometown who were recruited into the army are unknown, and the people are naturally unwilling to send their sons, husbands, etc. to the dangerous battlefield again.
"Prince Ning usually expropriates and extorts money, but now he wants us to go to the battlefield to die. This day has not passed."
"The son of the old Zhang family is also in the army in the south. This time the bandit army came over. I heard that their army was wiped out. I don't know if the son of the old Zhang family can survive."
"Who knows."
"We are really miserable."
Facing the emergency call-up order, the common people sighed and were extremely frustrated.
"I heard that everyone in Jiangbei Province has clothes to wear, everyone has food to eat, and there are very few taxes. Why don't we flee to Jiangbei Province."
"But now there are wars everywhere. If we leave the village, maybe our heads will be cut off and we will become the military exploits of those soldiers."
"And King Ning knows that if we don't follow orders, once we are investigated, someone will lose their heads."
When the people in various prefectures and counties were in trouble because of King Ning's emergency call-up order, some shopkeepers in the village who usually walked the streets and alleys stood up.
"I don't think it's possible to obey orders. The battlefield is so dangerous, and the Qinghe army is tough and good at fighting. More than 100,000 mighty troops have all died. We will die if we go."
"But if we don't go, people from the government will arrest us tomorrow and behead us." Someone said worriedly.
"The officers and soldiers in the county have been transferred away urgently, and now there are only a few government servants left. They?What about us? "The salesman said indifferently.
"If it really pushes us into a hurry, we will do the opposite!"
Seeing that the usually amiable shopkeeper uttered such rebellious words, these common people were also taken aback.
"I heard that the Qinghe Army has announced that once they beat King Ning away, our Luyang Province will also divide the land."
When the people were so shocked that they couldn't speak, the salesman became more and more excited as he talked, and stood directly on the bench.
"In this case, why should we help King Ning fight the Qinghe army? We are too late to welcome them."
"80% of the food we grow on weekdays has been handed in, and we have to help him fight the war. If this continues, everyone in our village will die, either starving to death or dying on the battlefield!"
"King Ning has no way, why should we listen to him anymore? If we don't listen to their call-up order, it's the opposite!" the salesman said, waving his arms.
"I've had enough of being angry, and I don't want to be angry anymore. I don't want to go to the battlefield to die."
"I still want to stay at home and farm. If I leave, the mother-in-law and children at home will become orphans and widows. I won't go either."
Under the instigation of the salesman, some young and vigorous young men in the village were also filled with righteous indignation, and did not want to obey King Ning's emergency summoning order.
"What should the yamen servant do with someone when he arrives in the village tomorrow?" someone asked.
"We have a lot of sickles and hoes in our village. As long as they dare to lead people, we will fight them!"
"Yes, fight them!"
Under the instigation of the shopkeeper, the people in this village were all aroused to hate King Ning, and they also took action overnight.
?They demolished the bridge from the village to the county seat overnight. At the same time, they urgently sharpened some spears, took hunting bows, and formed a strong team in the village to protect the village.
This salesman is actually a spy of Qinghe Army's infiltration and development. On weekdays, he mainly provides information for Zhou Ting, Tang Ping, and Du Xiaoniu, who are active behind the enemy.
The Qinghe army aggressively attacked the Luyang province, and their secret spies distributed in various villages and towns also became active, encouraging the people to rebel against King Ning and the mighty army.
Because these spies were developed secretly by the Qinghe Army, and most of them are locals, it is much easier for them to agitate and will not make people suspicious.
? When the salesman relied on King Ning to issue an urgent call-up order to encourage the people to resist, in various prefectures and counties in Luyang Province, those secret spies were also operating in various forms.
Some of them were going to assassinate the local officials, and some were going to burn down the local granaries.
There are also people who are preparing to take people to seize the county seat and meet the Qinghe Army. There are various forms, but it is a great cooperation with the frontal troops of the Qinghe Army. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
