Monument Yangmen

Chapter 228 Slogan: Steal money!Grab food!Grab a man!

The Yongning Army belonged to the Xiang Army, and only a small number of elites were in charge of fighting. Most of the rest, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled were mixed up as soldiers, eating and dying in the army.

Their weapons have not been maintained all year round, and over time they have become a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron.

After these waste copper and rotten iron were recast, they couldn't reach the standard hardness that weapons should have, but they could barely be used when they were cast into agricultural tools.

Yongzhou has a large land area and few people, so there is a lot of land that can be reclaimed, so there is no need to worry about people scrambling for it.

As long as the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled in the army do not object to reclaiming wasteland, and the matter of the Land Reclamation Corps is handed over to Huyan Chijin, Yang Yansi is very relieved.

Xie Tao has always maintained a respect in front of Yang Yansi.

"My lord, I have already counted the rusted iron in the barracks with General Hu Yan, and the blacksmiths in the army have already counted it. These rusted irons have been made into farm tools, which are barely enough for five thousand old and weak in the barracks."

In Xie Tao's eyes, the dilapidated and rusty weapons and armor in the camp have lost their due value, no different from rusted iron.

Yang Yansi stood in front of the table, holding a pen, and outlined ink marks one after another on the map.

This is his roadmap for getting into Cochin.

While planning the route, he asked Xie Tao, "I'm not worried about handing over the casting of agricultural tools to the blacksmith accompanying the army, but you must pay close attention to it, and don't let the unrecast weapons and armor in the barracks flow out. These things They all bear the obvious Yongning Army mark. If it is exposed and used by villains, it will be a trouble for the official.”

"Remember, sir."

Xie Tao kept Yang Yansi's words in his heart, he was able to become an official and rank today, all thanks to Yang Yansi's support.In the future, if he wants to be promoted to a noble, he will have to be supported by Yang Yansi.

After hesitating for a while, Xie Tao was about to speak out an immature thought in his mind.

"My lord, I have a proposal, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Yang Yansi stopped holding the pen, raised his head and looked at Xie Tao.

"speak!"

Xie Tao was stared at by Yang Yansi's sharp gaze, feeling a little uncomfortable all over his body.

"The lower officials thought that the Land Reclamation Corps of the Yongning Army could reclaim wasteland in Fengling County under the jurisdiction of the lower officials. There is a rare plain in Fengling County, which is very suitable for reclaiming wasteland and growing food."

"Heh..." Yang Yansi chuckled, shook his head and sighed, "I can understand your small thoughts. The Agricultural Reclamation Corps' reclaiming wasteland in Fengling County is more or less a political achievement for you."

Xie Tao lowered his head ashamedly, "I'm also considering my lord."

Yang Yansi waved his hand, "You can discuss the details with Huyan Chijin. I have given her full power to deal with the matter of the Land Reclamation Corps."

Seeing that Yang Yansi not only did not blame him, but also agreed to his request in a disguised form, Xie Tao was overjoyed and hurriedly saluted.

"Thank you, my lord."

Looking at the back of Xie Tao leaving in a hurry, Yang Yansi shook his head and smiled.

This guy is indeed an out-and-out official fan, and he will not miss any opportunity to make political achievements.

The matter of the Farm Reclamation Corps was handed over to Huyan Chijin, and with the help of Xie Tao, an official fan, Yang Yansi no longer worried.

He continued to plan his route into Cochin.

Since his purpose was to rob grain, he could not go through the dangerous mountain forest.

We can only look for some gentle areas interspersed between Yongzhou and Jiaozhi.

Fortunately, Hou Renbao led an army to attack Jiaozhi, all the way from Zhengdong.

Wherever the army passed, a slightly flat road was naturally cleared.

After planning the route, Yang Yansi recruited more than 400 soldiers from the Black Armor Army, generals from Huyan's family, and scarecrows.

In a small school field outside the camp, Yang Yansi asked Zhao Di and The Paper to integrate the three teams.

Yang Yansi put on his armor and stood in front of them to lecture.

"You all know that there is not much food in the camp. In order to avoid mutiny due to insufficient food, I decided to go out to grab food. And you are the helpers who followed me to go out to grab food."

The leader of Huyan's family frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Yang wants to steal the people's rations?"

In the Heijia Army, the soldiers belonging to the Cao family also frowned, waiting for Yang Yansi's reply.

The soldiers belonging to the Scarecrow and the Yang family in the Black Armor Army looked indifferent.

As the generals of the Yang family and Yang Yansi's direct subordinates, they must obey Yang Yansi's orders.

Yang Yansi glanced at the generals of the Huyan family and the soldiers of the Cao family, and said with a smile: "I know what you are worried about. You are all heroes who have been rushed out in hundreds of battles. You don't bother to harm the people. And there are some among you Many people's relatives are farmers and know what food means to the people.

Perhaps, without food, the people will starve to death.

I understand the justice and kindness in your hearts.So I want to tell you clearly that the target of our snatching is not the Song people, but the Jiaozhi people on the other side of the mountain. "

Conscientious soldiers of the Song Dynasty would not do anything to the people of their own country.But for the people of the enemy country, they will not have much kindness in their hearts.

The army is a violent institution. Since joining this violent institution, they have hidden their kindness and humanity.

For their own people, they will cancel their concealment; for the people of the enemy country, they will wrap themselves tightly, turning themselves into a cold killing machine.

"As long as they don't plunder the people of our Great Song Dynasty, a certain family will voluntarily obey the order of the young master."

"A certain house too!"

After confirming that Yang Yansi did not target the people of the Song Dynasty, they naturally accepted Yang Yansi's order.

"very good!"

Yang Yansi nodded in satisfaction, and then began to distribute the battle plan.

"Our battle plan is very simple. After leaving the camp, in the forest thirty miles away, there is a gentle mountain road cleared by the imperial army. We lurked along the mountain road and robbed the Jiaozhi people on the other side of the mountain. Our target is theirs. Food. The scarecrow is responsible for gathering and seizing food. The soldiers of the Black Armored Army and one hundred generals of Huyan’s family are responsible for robbing and killing all the resisting crowd.”

"Remember, your own life must be the first priority. Don't put your own life in order to seize and plunder property. You must remember that I value your life more than property."

"In addition, our slogan for this battle plan is very simple."

"Snatch money! Snatch food! Snatch men! All cochin males, string them up with ropes and bring them back. They will be our porters, and they will use their strength to help us carry the belongings and food in their homes. Move here."

"have you understood?"

　Thanks to 'Xiaofeng Tianxia, ​​Bubble Daidi' for a big reward!
