Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 213 From Andukang to Juzhanti
In the heavy snow, on the official road outside Xijiangwan Fort, there was a sudden rush of horseshoes. The sound came from far to near, and people could be seen soon.

The fort chief who was in charge of this small fortress with more than a thousand people climbed up to the top of the city in twos and twos, and stood on tiptoe to look at it.

Xijiangwan Fort is located on the main road from Kesai City to Andukang, and it is very crowded with people on weekdays, but now it is deep winter, and generally no one would travel around in this kind of weather.

So the fortress was a little cautious, he was afraid that the scattered stragglers would come nearby.

well!The fort chief patted the snowflakes on his body, and heaved a long sigh. Ever since he could remember, the sweating had never been peaceful.

First, the Karakhans came in and drove away the Persian Samans, and then Governor Yusup betrayed Bugla Khan.

Then the Persians came back to compete with Governor Yusup, and now the Khotan Jin people from the Great Dynasty (Tang Dynasty) came, and defeated both Yusup and the Persian Samans.

I hope that the king of the Jin Dynasty can stay here. For low-level officials like the Fort Chief and ordinary people, whoever pays taxes is also paid, and it doesn’t make much difference what religion they believe in. The key is who can give them A stable, safe environment, whoever is their monarch.

"Open the door! Open the door quickly! The pacifier Lu Shuaisi and the pacifier Yang Shuaisi have urgent military affairs, take a step and watch your dog's head carefully!" People didn't look, but the scolding came first.

"Open the door! Open the door quickly!" The fort chief hurriedly asked the people below to open the door, and even saw that his subordinate Min Zhuang was slow in his hands and feet. Regardless of his fat body, he rushed over and pushed open the fort door.

The appeasement envoy and the appeasement deputy envoy, these are the officials dispatched temporarily by Zhang Zhao. From the literal meaning, these officials who are called Shuaisi are to gather the defeated soldiers and take over the towns and cities under the control of Yuan Yusupu. and rural tribes.

Of course, this kind of thing involving the redistribution of power and resources will not be peaceful. Over the past month or so, there have been countless rioters, direct rebels, outlaws, and families fleeing.

From Kesai City to Andukang, a lot of heads were killed. At least seven 800 people were hacked with a knife, and then thrown into the rolling medicine killing water and the Naryn River.

In troubled times, heavy codes are used to cut the mess with a sharp knife. Zhang Zhao didn't have the time to cut it off slowly, so he simply used the fastest method. Whoever refuses to accept it will just let him disappear directly.

Some of them were innocent, and some were retaliated against, but none of them were in Zhang Zhao's consideration. What he wanted was a stable place as soon as possible.

There are few three-legged toads, but there are many people who want to be officials and become powerful. Those who follow me will prosper and those who oppose me will perish.

This Yu Supu killed one crop, and King Zhang killed another crop. From the entire Kesai City to Andu Kang, there were basically not many stabs left except those who were subdued by Natou.

From the view of the Fort Chief of Xijiangwan, the people outside are big devils who will kill the whole family every minute.

It's just that he didn't think about it carefully. Without these devils outside cutting off the dissatisfaction and killing all the thorns, a person like him who is not completely black-hearted and has not clever methods can be a leader of the fortress?
The comfort envoy of Lu is Lu Zhen Lu Sanlang, and the deputy envoy of comfort Yang is Yang Shouli.

Of course Zhang Zhao would not feel at ease to let Lu Sanlang go down alone to appease the local area, so he sent out all the military officers, including rough men like Ma Yaozi, as deputy appeasement envoys.

As a pacifier, Lu Sanlang's biggest role is to analyze the situation, lead the way and matchmaking.

"Brother Shouli, it's getting late today, let's rest at Xijiangwan Fort for the night!"

Lu Sanlang was not at all dissatisfied with being treated as a tool man, he could clearly see King Zhang's cunning and cruelty.

Others saw that King Zhang kept Yu Supu's family alive, and thought that King Zhang was a bit benevolent, but Lu Sanlang knew that the king didn't kill Yu Supu's family because he thought they were no threat and was too lazy to dirty his hands Just deal with it.

For threats, King Zhang has never tolerated them.

The Almack family of Anducon-Ossiburg wanted to resist, but except for the young woman and the children who were not taller than the wheel, there were more than [-] members of the family, but none of them survived.

From this, Lu Sanlang felt the character of King Ju'er Khan Zhang, and he was quite tolerant if he didn't block his way and didn't make mistakes.

But if you want to fight against him, this king is the most staunch supporter of cutting grass and roots.

While speaking, the 27th Cavalry had already entered the fortress, Yang Shouli took off his hood and nodded.

"Listen to Saburo, everything is stable in Andukang, don't worry about it for a while, the snow is so heavy, people are exhausted, you and my brother should just find a place to have a drink!"

Yang Shouli was smiling and blushing, completely unable to see the anxious and desperate look of the previous few months.

Since the arrival of Zhang Zhao, the people of the three surnames in Xinkucha have had a better life. The annoying miscellaneous beards have turned into dogs lying on the ground with their bellies exposed. Every household has been rewarded with food and drink.

What's more, he was pleasantly surprised that Xin Qiuci's three surnames were the only one under King Zhang who had some administrative ability.

Because New Kucha is also a group with more than [-] people, how to manage these tribesmen who are said to be close relatives, the upper-level leaders of Xin Kucha have quite good management experience, otherwise the group will not be able to maintain it

Now the king can only rely on them in order to control most of the Bahanna from Kesai City to Andukang.

Many of the upper echelons of the three surnames in New Kucha have gone to serve as officials in various dangerous areas. His father Yang Tongyi was even directly appointed by the king as Andu Kangliu, in charge of the livelihood of 70,000 people.

"Take the horse down, don't just deal with it with hay, give it some beans, remember to mix it with salt, wipe the horse's sweat before feeding it, and then wrap it in a dry blanket."

Next to Lu Sanlang, Su Wulang, a Tanger from Luojia Mountain City who had been following him all the time, gave orders to the Fortress of Xijiangwan with his nostrils upturned.

"After arranging the horses, I will find a clean house for a certain handsome company, make a good stove, serve delicious wine and meat, and call some of the young lady Hu Ji who wants to earn some money."

The fort chief bowed his waist and lowered his head, with a pained expression on his face. There were more than [-] people and more than [-] horses. The horses wanted to eat, and the people also wanted to eat, as well as wine, meat and girls, alas!The whole family is about to be emptied.

'Boom! A big piece hit the Fort Chief's shoulder, which startled him, who lowered his head and complained inwardly, and when he looked up, a piece of white folded cloth hit the Fort Chief's shoulder.

"Hurry up! I won't miss your reward. I'm looking for a young and good-looking one. If you dare to use a widow who has given birth to a few children to make up the number, I will beat you to death!"

Giving money and rewards, the Fort Chief was overjoyed at once, with a mustache on his chin, and a flattering look on his round face.

He put away this piece of white cloth like a groundhog, it was a good thing, and he didn't even need half a piece of white cloth to entertain these nobles for a night.

As for the dried purple-black blood on the corner of the cloth, he simply ignored it.

"Please come among the nobles, the villain's house is the cleanest, just a few days ago a cow died, the rump meat is the most plump, the corn wine brewed the year before last is sweet and delicious, and the fish mothers in Xijiang Bay are as far away as Kesai City They're all well-known."

The happy fortress leader led the way, carrying this bundle of white cloth, he felt more at ease.

Not only because of the wealth that this piece of cloth brought him, but also because he vaguely felt that under the rule of such a king whose rich nobles come out to eat and drink and ask his little mother to give money, the era of stability is finally coming, right?

. . . . .

Kesai City and Andukang in the north are becoming more and more stable, but in the south, after leaving Sanjiang Bay, which is the battlefield where Zhang Zhao fought the Persians, until Juzhanti, it was like a hell on earth.

More than 30,000 Persian troops plus thousands of civilians, except for more than [-] people who surrendered on the spot and more than [-] people who died in battle, the remaining nearly [-] people fled to the south.

But they were chasing after them, throwing away their helmets and unloading their armor. While the wind was raging, it snowed heavily the next day. It was cold, humid, strong wind and without clothes and food, and the road was extremely muddy and difficult to walk.

Thirty to forty miles south of Sanjiang Bay, there are frozen corpses of Persians everywhere. They have weird smiles on their faces and are almost naked. Dozens or hundreds of corpses can often be found entangled together, which attracts few people in winter. The active wolves actually came out to look for food on a large scale.

Pei Shengyuan walked through the snow with slender wooden planks tied to his legs. Behind him was a group of warriors from the Eastern Cao Kingdom.

They had already exchanged shotguns and guns, wearing Persian cotton coats and chain mail, and Ju'erhan also sent large ships of food and weapons from Yaoshashui.

Under the leadership of Pei Shengyuan and Xue Shouli, they conquered several small tribes nearby, and they have grown to 4000 people. Today, they are waiting here to welcome a big man.

Navigating on a river that is about to freeze is actually very dangerous, but Yan Jin is still ready to take the risk. Fortunately, the current of Yaoshashui is not urgent, so the journey is considered safe and sound.

He brought [-] warriors this time, in order to come to unite these people headed by the Eastern Cao Kingdom. He has only one goal, and that is to fight together.

Since Ma Yaozi was able to save Xinkucha with a dozen or so riders and take a team of tens of thousands of people, Yan Jin led seven hundred elites and recruited thousands of Dongcao people, would it be difficult to win a battle?

Disaster!But it's because of the difficulty that Yan Jin's ability can be revealed, isn't it?

"Brother Chengjie, someone is here!" Pei Shengyuan saw Yan Jin on the boat from a long distance away, and he was waving a small red flag, which was particularly conspicuous in the white snow.

"Pei Dalang, you did a good job, you must have several thousand athletes?" Yan Jin laughed loudly, and jumped down when there were still a few steps across the river.

"I haven't seen Duwei Yan yet! This is the number one brave general of the Great Khan's personal guard Regret Mountain. If the captain comes here, Juzhanti will soon be ours!"

Pei Shengyuan yelled at the back first, then turned his head and made a cross-hand salute to Yan Jin.

"Reporting to Captain, there are now seven tribes that have taken refuge in us, and if we conscript them all, we can get three thousand strong men."

Yan Jin nodded, then pointed in the direction of Juzhanti in the distance and asked: "How is the situation in Juzhanti? Can the Persians send people from Bukhara?"

"With such heavy snow, Bukhara may have just received the news of Adulal's defeat!

Juzhanti City was in chaos, because Adulal almost took away all the defenders in the city, and now there are only a few hundred soldiers in the city.

According to the king's order, a certain one also sent a defeated army into the city, which made the people in the city even more panicked. "Speaking, Pei Shengyuan lowered his voice.

"We also selected a few officers and deliberately released them back. A certain promise, as long as they confirm the internal response, after breaking the city, not only will they be able to protect their families, but they will also be able to preserve their wealth!"

"Good job!" Yan Jin's praise this time really came from the heart. He deliberately let the defeated army enter the city to lower morale, and he knew how to get some internal support, which is already considered very talented.

"However, if you recruit some reliable people to bypass Juzhanti, now that it is snowing heavily, it is impossible for the Persians to send a large army, but it is possible to send someone to Juzhanti to preside over the defense.

As long as you intercept and kill this person halfway, and take the head to Juzhanti, this city can be taken. "

Yan Jin lightly patted Pei Shengyuan's shoulder, and the latter's eyes lit up immediately.

That's true, sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot, Yan Duwei still has two brushes to become the number one brave general under the king's command.
