In the inner city of Guangfu, on the side of the General's Mansion with the building running horizontally, Lin Yan, who hurriedly walked across the corridor with a handful of papers, seemed to have not heard the previous discussions, and was as repressive, tense, and bleak. , Full of concentration and expressionless; but there is a faint pleasure and relief in his heart.
Who told you to be jealous of the benefits of these positions? Who told you to put all your energy into taking advantage of the topic to force the virtual monk away; the people who made a lot of money from it have not been free for a few days, they have already messed up these matters; now after the army has gathered Insufficient support and supply, we must be completely blinded. It should have made King Huang furious and cut off a few more heads, and sent off more related people.
In fact, although he is known as one of the Huangwang clan and one of the "Huangmen eight sons" who are close to his confidant, he is actually the only person with a different surname among them most of the time, that is, a dispensable crane tail and utility. It's just an addition to the number; because he is only the son of Huang Chao's late eldest sister, and he has only read a few words in the private school that there are more people than others. There is no old friendship between Huang Rui, Huang Kui, Huang Rui and the like who were born to death when they risked their lives together, and there are no nephews Huang Hao, Huang Cun and others who have the qualifications to follow and start a family;
He was the only relative who came to run after his family was beheaded and desperate after Huang Chao raised his troops. Therefore, he was regarded as his past relatives and the death of his family, and he was left to walk near Huang Chao as a confidential documentary. It's just that as Huang Chao opened his mansion and called him king, although his status as the Huang Clan relatives has not changed, he has become more and more embarrassed with the various people who have successively invested in Huang Wang's command to be appointed.
Compared with the other Huang Menzi brothers, he has neither long-term subordinates and soldiers, nor has he really trusted capable staff and subordinates. He has only an empty head of a fox and a tiger-like command, and a few miscellaneous entourages. .
It was not until after traveling south to Guangzhou that he listened to the advice of Mr. Wen Dan Yang, and found a chance to work with the newly-promoted grain judge, the official monk Xu, before approaching the water tower to learn some methods and experiences that have been applied over time. The other party's light made some deeds and achievements that were named by the king of Huang, and was no longer just the one in the eyes of others, as the microphone of the king of Huang running around.
However, when the monk in charge was driven away by those people for excuses, the good days for him to accumulate power were gone. I thought that Xiao Guicao could continue to do something as he did. As a result, even the positions of responsibility and handling under his name were successively assigned to several officials, including a certain Huang Clan brother.
As a result, they only see the benefits and conveniences on the surface, but they don’t understand the ways in which they need to be carefully managed and managed. The people they use can’t even maintain the basic situation, and there are all kinds of big and small. Questions and wrongs are constant.
First, the wounded and sick in the ambulance camp were troubled by the inexplicable shortage of daily medicine and supplies; then there were frequent accidents in the mines and the sharp decline in output, and even a large number of escapes and deficits occurred in the military management workshop; facing the locality There was also a big problem with the auction of the stock, so that now the income can only be less than the original eleven;
Even if it is exclusively for military lieutenant generals to exchange exchanges, the swimming market for exchange of presence or absence cannot be maintained; because the person in charge takes the lead in mismanagement, resulting in a shortage of transactions and frequent fraud, although it is due to the background of the principal. I didn't dare to be angry, but the soldiers who were willing to come over under the bad reputation naturally became rarer.
It can be said that with the exception of the post-road system that is distributed outside and has not yet received feedback, almost all the careers and positions handed out have problems and situations of this kind. The bigger problem is that when they promoted and selected the skilled people who had been used fluently when the monks started these businesses, they had been squeezed out and kicked out seven or eight, so as to make room for the people they brought.
The result is that once there is a problem with this position, there is no reason or relationship to be found at all, and I do not know what to do, but only shirking and arguing with each other. There is neither basic support nor control methods, but only things. When the brutal punishment came, and no one wanted to do anything for them.
Then, after the people from all walks of life were ordered to gather near Canton, this resentment was completely unconcealed. More than a dozen new heads were cut off to hinder the military situation, and some familiar faces that disappeared from the military office, and Dai Song standing outside the gate are the best portrayal.
The Huang Clan kid who was not doing well was even more "selfish and unbearable" by the King Huang in public during the routine military meeting of the military mansion, and the reprimanding bloody dog couldn't speak up at all. This also made Lin Yan, who had been ruled out of these matters a long time ago, suddenly felt very lucky and somewhat relieved. However, in the follow-up questioning service, he still resisted the ** and rejected what others had put forward, letting him take over the aftermath of the "good intentions".
From this, with the reference of these manifestations, he also really saw the deficiencies and limitations of his body, and thus obliterated the last point that he was obviously expanded and enlarged because of the smoothness and calmness of these days, and he can completely copy it as it is. Or replace it with illusions and fluke thoughts.
On the other hand, he was tired of the surviving army, and would rather find a chance to settle down in this relatively prosperous and comfortable place in Guangfu; therefore, as the last bit of Huang Wang’s family, he asked Taking the place to guard the army and keeping food for the army, and continuing to maintain the requirements of Tuntian Anmin, has been approved by the King Huang.
Therefore, the next step is to gather a group of allies and co-workers for himself as a team. At least among those with whom he has made friends and contacts before, he is not completely aimless; but he is obviously the one who is in the rebels that he values most. Among them, the imaginary monk, who has few foundations but some means, is also the person who most hopes that he can return at this moment.
. . . . . .
And Zhou Huaian, who continued to cruise outside, still pulled a battalion of soldiers and horses that should have been transferred back to Xunzhou, and continued to conduct field marching drills and practice simulations of actual combat. This is also a kind of deterrence in the course of action; at least in the many strongholds of the rebels in those places, except for decent defensive cities, there is really no way to stop and resist their existence.
However, due to the high cost of simulated actual combat exercises, the current accumulation of the Sanjiang Army/Story Camp can support such a small and long stream of battalion scale. However, after the endless stream of bandits and rebels gradually disappeared along the way, they even began to try to attack some of the cottages and native settlements where the bandits hid.
For example, in front of Zhou Huai'an, Dongke Village, located in the valley of the mountain more than 30 miles away from the ruins of Shixiang Town, is the largest settlement of natives within a hundred miles of nearby; and for the old people who survived with Zhou Huai'an. Among them, the natives who have been climbed by these Youshan mountains and forests still have memories of their escape from chasing and attacking all the way.
Therefore, after revisiting the old place this time, it happened to comply with the request of the local farming station to punish the remnants of these tyrants who had colluded with the place, who kept coming out of the mountains to harass and destroy the farming land, and took a good calculation of this old account; In front of the rebel positions that had been temporarily felled and cleared, the walls of the wall built with wood along the deep valley were already full of figures with feather crests or cloth heads.
On the hillsides and slopes in the distance behind the stockade, you can also see strips of terraced fields, bamboo ridges in Lizibi, and cattle and sheep scattered in between.
However, because he was intercepted and killed by the anti-water inside outside the mountain, he lost a lot of Ding Zhuang and leaked the road leading to the stockade and the layout of the valley; therefore, there are actually many defenders on the wall of the stockade. The figure of the old and weak women and children. Although their faces can hardly hide the color of grief and determination, for Zhou Huai'an, they take the blame;
Regardless of how many reasons they have and why they are for their own people and groups, but they can’t change this stockade for a long time in collusion with the locals, plundering and ruining ordinary people and robbing and killing past merchants from time to time, and changing the sky in Lingnan After that, he remained unresolved, and the crimes of breaking into the Tuntian area designated by the rebels and robbing the population and livestock were well deserved;
Of course, the more important thing is that they blocked Zhou Huai'an from wanting to practice a certain idea, so they can only be used as stepping stones and nourishment to turn into the dust of history. However, through the early battles, it was discovered that the equipment and training level of these native mountain savages were actually much worse than those in those places. Because of the lack of qualified iron and smelting skills, decent swordsmen could not be equipped with all but copper and iron. There are all of them, and there are even people using bone and stone tools; and this place is known as Dazhai with thousands of people.
Moreover, because of the lack of salt and other civilian resources and the need to import from outside the mountain, widespread malnutrition and chronic diseases are rampant; what they rely on is nothing more than the perennial struggle against the sinister forest environment and endless beasts. It's pretty brave. In addition, the medicine crossbow they are good at deploying is slightly more threatening to unarmored targets.
Therefore, the first to attack was a group of refugees who were simply armed with planks, hatchets, and forks. They were also the precursors/cannon fodder of the pathfinder, used to detect the opponent’s traps and obstacles, and the distribution of long-range projection power. , So only need to be able to rush under the wall in one fell swoop to turn around. Then you can get a full meal mixed with a lot of bran and impurities, and also mixed with taro and potato.
I saw them in the chaotic shouts, facing the same chaotic arrows or something, like a gray current rushing towards the blackened wall in the wind, sun and rain. From Zhou Huaian's position, it can be seen that within this impact distance of hundreds of steps, people from time to time fell with arrows, or suddenly fell to the ground, or suddenly settled on the ground and screamed and cried for help;
This shocking flow of people is like being filtered by a coarse-toothed comb. The rest of the people can easily bump and crawl under the wall, and can't wait to throw away the things in their hands. He turned desperately and rushed back; this suddenly evoked shouts of scolding and ridicule on the wall, and more savages leaned out from the wall and quickly shot arrows, or threw spears and stones, and some even jumped off the wall. Coming down, I want to chase down these "pioneers" who are on the verge of collapse. (End of this chapter)
