When the army led by Wang Qi entered Nanyang, it slowed down and stopped going at full speed. There was no other reason. Wang Qi needed to give the Nanyang bandits time to react and send troops.
The purpose of doing this is to let the thieves in Nanyang County take advantage of the wind and achieve the purpose of luring snakes out of their holes.
If this goal cannot be achieved, the previous plan will fail.
So, take your time when you are on your way.
Towards evening, the army stopped to camp and rest.
Wang Qi¡¯s current army has more than 2,000 troops. Along the way, Xiao Qingzhi has been training and running-in the soldiers, strengthening the training of the soldiers and enhancing their combat effectiveness.
Soldiers who once belonged to the major families in Yingchuan, these people have withstood the baptism of blood and fire, and after re-training, they have shown a different temperament, and they are even more strict with orders and prohibitions.
With this group of soldiers, more than a thousand Mengshan soldiers who later surrendered quickly got on the right track.
The army set up camp and the cooks began to cook rice.
Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng, Xiao Qingzhi and Zhu Shanchang were sitting around talking.
Wang Qi's eyes fell on Zhu Shanchang and said: "Shanchang, you have seen the situation in Nanyang with your own eyes along the way. There are people dying of hunger everywhere, and there are ten houses and nine empty houses in the place, and there is a lack of people. Countless people, Displaced and left their homeland. It is not easy for Nanyang to develop, and there is a long way to go."
Zhu Shanchang looked calm and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "My lord, although the development of Nanyang County is difficult, in fact, it is not surprising. After all, it is like this all over the world."
"Especially in my opinion, the current predicament is not a big problem."
"The reason is very simple. As long as Nanyang County stabilizes and the government promulgates policies that benefit the people, displaced Baixin and even refugees will naturally gather in Nanyang County."
"It is difficult to find a stable place in this world today. Without the smoke of war, Nanyang has become a paradise. If you can escape the war, there will naturally be countless people gathering here."
¡°I¡¯m not worried about the population issue.¡±
Zhu Shanchang said: "After all, the current situation is not about the struggle for hegemony among the princes. If it were left to the era when the princes were competing for hegemony, they would all need population and people. It would be impossible to let the people leave, and it would be difficult to get the people. But now, the problem is not big."
Along the way, Zhu Shanchang was thinking while walking.
After all, he is the county magistrate now.
It is certain that once he arrives in Nanyang, Wang Qi will entrust the government affairs to him and the military affairs to the county captain Xiao Qingzhi.
So Zhu Shanchang has been preparing.
After Wang Qi heard this, he slowly said: "It's good that you are prepared for this. When we arrive in Nanyang County, after I take office, you will be fully responsible for the government affairs of the county government and the administration of Nanyang."
"yes!"
Zhu Shanchang immediately agreed.
He was happy in his heart because Wang Qi trusted him and was willing to give him space to display his talents.
Although the space and platform in Nanyang are very small now, Zhu Shanchang does not dislike it. If he can't manage even Nanyang County well, how can he talk about anything else?
Zhu Shan has a deep heart and is willing to start from the bottom, and he also wants to make some political achievements.
He knew that his grandfather was under a lot of pressure when he came to Nanyang.
Even grandfather Zhu Chen will become the laughing stock of Yingchuan. Although his grandfather would not mind this, Zhu Shanchang hopes to prove himself and his grandfather's vision.
"Report!"
At this time, Su Lie came.
Su Lie came to Wang Qi's side and said: "Young Master, I just received a letter from Heilongtai. As soon as the letter was delivered, he left directly. I asked him to come to see the Young Master, but he was not happy either. .¡±
Wang Qi took the letter and quickly read it. After reading the letter, he handed it to Zhuge Feng and said, "The news from Heilongtai is about the Nanyang bandits."
"The leader of the bandits in Nanyang County is named Zhai Feizhou. He has more than 10,000 troops under his command. They are entrenched in Nanyang County. They are very powerful and the soldiers are quite elite."
"Zhai Feizhou has sent troops to kill us."
"This news confirms that our previous plan was correct. We have now completed the first stage of luring the snake out of the hole and have taken the initiative in this battle."
Wang Qi said solemnly: "Regarding this battle, my plan is to first defeat Zhai Feizhou, and secondly try to capture some traitors. Because the captured people can be reorganized and trained to turn them into our army. "
Zhuge Feng read the letter and handed it to Xiao Qingzhi and Zhu Shan to read.
He agreed with Wang Qi¡¯s analysis.
At present, Wang Qi's military strength is somewhat reduced and can be expanded again. Because to establish a foothold in Nanyang, sufficient troops are needed. If we rely solely on the two or three thousand people at hand, even if we add the rest of Wang Qi's strength, it will still be slightly insufficient.
After Xiao Qingzhi read the letter, he asked: "Sir, is the Black Dragon Terrace the Black Dragon Terrace of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
"yes!"
Wang Qi nodded and answered.
Xiao Qingzhi was a little surprised and asked: "Heilongtai took the initiative to pass the news to the young master. Could it be that there are people from the young master in Heilongtai?"
Zhu Shanchang also looked at Wang Qi with a curious look in his eyes.
During this period of time, Zhu Shanchang learned a lot about Wang Qi. In fact, Zhu Shanchang's understanding is very shallow. At least judging from the current news on Heilongtai, Wang Qi is not just using his superficial methods.
There are still many means.
Wang Qi smiled and said: "I have a cooperative relationship with Linghu Qianli, the governor of Heilongtai. I am in Nanyang, and the entire Langya Kingdom and even the Heilongtai intelligence system in Xuzhou will be used by me. Of course, because of the local chaos, now Heilongtai's intelligence system The intelligence system has actually become much weaker."
"Hiss!!"
Xiao Qingzhi took a breath.
He is not someone who does not understand the structure of the imperial court, and he knows the horror of Black Dragon Terrace.
Heilongtai is an institution that belongs exclusively to the emperor and is responsible for spying on intelligence. Unexpectedly, Linghu Qianli, the chief governor of Heilongtai, had a cooperative connection with Wang Qi.
It¡¯s really scary!
Xiao Qingzhi praised: "Young master, you are really amazing."
Zhu Shanchang came from a noble family and understood the importance of Black Dragon Terrace. He echoed: "Not to mention anything else, just because the young master has this information line about Black Dragon Terrace, he is ahead of countless people and has the opportunity to win."
Wang Qi smiled and said: "The Black Dragon Platform is useful, but it is not omnipotent. Besides, when I cooperate with the Black Dragon Platform, I am also seeking skin from a tiger. But these are things for the future. What we need to do now is to prepare for war with all our strength and prepare to annihilate Zhai Feizhou."
"Report!"
At this time, another sentry rushed over.
The whistle-blower, dusty and dusty, rode up to Wang Qi and dismounted, clasping his fists and saying, "Sir, the latest urgent report is that the biggest bandit in Nanyang County, Zhai Feizhou, is leading more than ten thousand bandits to kill us."
The sentry detective now also sent back the news.
The two lines of news are completely consistent and have confirmed Zhai Feizhou's dispatch of troops.
Wang Qidao: "I know, let's explore again!"
The sentry turned around and retreated.
Xiao Qingzhi took out a map from his sleeve. This is a general map of Nanyang County.
This map was collected by Wang Qi. In fact, the map is very simple, with only some simple topographic and landform markings. But such a map, in Xiao Qingzhi's opinion, is like a treasure.
He always carries it with him.
Xiao Qingzhi spread out the map, put his hand on the map, and said: "Sir, our current geographical location is about forty miles away from Nanyang County."
"Zhai Feizhou fell into our plan and came to kill us. This means that our plan has come true. So at the moment, I think we can push eight miles further."
"The location eight miles ahead is called Shuanghe Mountain."
Xiao Qingzhi said: "We stopped to camp at Shuanghe Mountain, set up camp, and waited for Zhai Feizhou to arrive. Our purpose is to wait for work and block Zhai Feizhou's army. Especially under Shuanghe Mountain, the terrain is open and we will not be ambushed."
Wang Qidao: "Okay!"
The plan against the bandits in Nanyang County has been drawn up long ago, and now it is just a matter of finding a place to garrison the troops.
After everything was settled, Wang Qi and his party had dinner and went to bed early.
The next day, early morning.
The army set off northward and advanced eight miles north to reach Shuanghe Mountain.
The so-called Shuanghe Mountain is actually a mountain with two peaks, and the shape of the peaks is somewhat similar to a crane, hence the name Shuanghe Mountain.
Wang Qi¡¯s army was stationed in the open area at the foot of the mountain.
The army set up camp, set up complete fortifications, and laid out many traps.
So that it can be used for defense.
After everything is done, the officers and soldiers of the army take a rest.
Around Shen Shi in the afternoon, smoke and dust billowed up from the official road in the north. A dense army rushed towards them.
This is the army led by Zhai Feizhou. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
