Chapter 203 Lantian Crisis
Lantian County is in full swing for disaster construction, and the whole of Lantian is developing in a good direction. Li Chaosheng is also very fulfilling every day, inspecting various construction sites.

But the bad news came soon. Lantian County was targeted by big bandits from several nearby counties. Lantian County was too fat. News spread that there were [-] dans of grain in the county, and the nearby bandits were starving. .

They can only get enough food by robbing, and the robbing target must be a wealthy owner. In the entire southern Shaanxi area, which county is the richest, Lantian County, and which county has the most food, Lantian County.

What else is there to say, grab his mother.

So the bandits in several surrounding counties took a fancy to Lantian, and they wanted to snatch Lantian's rations.

At this time, Li Chaosheng's county office was full of people, including Li Chaohu from Qingyu, Luoheita from Xiaoyangyu, Li Debao from Daiyu, Li Dezhen from Daogouyu, Li Chaoshui from Wangyu, Niuben from Dongtangyu, and others. Li Chaolong, Shi Dalei, and Li Chaomeng all gathered in the county government office.

If people saw the gangsters in Lantian County gathered together, they wouldn't be scared to death.

Li Chaohu said at this time: "According to the Tanmalai report, there are four forces that are eyeing our Lantian this time. They are a gust of wind in Zhashui County. This kid has 2000 troops in his hand. Zhashui County is a poor county and cannot support many bandits. , just his family."

"In addition, there is Sai Bodang from Hua County, who is sick to Qin Qiong. Each of these people has 500 people under his command, which is not a small disaster."

"The third place is Shangluo's Winged Tiger. This is a big bandit. It has 8000 soldiers and horses under its command, but it is known as [-] to the outside world. It has the title of the number one bandit in southern Shaanxi."

"The fourth place is Chang'an Guard in Chang'an County. It is said that they are also interested in our Lantian, and they will probably disguise themselves as bandits and attack our Lantian County."

Li Chaohu analyzed it, and Li Chaosheng frowned when he heard it. This adds up to fifteen or six thousand soldiers who are interested in Lantian, and now we only have five thousand soldiers and horses.

Li Chaohu nodded and said, "Almost, that's the situation."

Li Chaolong frowned and said, "It's not easy to fight."

Li Chaosheng nodded lightly and said: "The most difficult thing to deal with here is the Chang'an Guard and the Winged Tiger."

The Winged Tiger has a large number of people, and Chang'an guards have strong horses and strong equipment.

Thinking of Li Chaosheng, he said, "For these soldiers and horses, we can't hide, we must block them outside Lantian as much as possible."

"And we can't fight this battle by ourselves, we have to mobilize the people to fight together."

As Li Chaosheng said, everyone was shocked when they heard this and said, "Mobilize the people, but how could the people help beat the bandits?"

Li Chaosheng said at this time: "Don't underestimate the people, no matter how powerful the army is, it is likely to perish in the ocean of the people's war."

Li Chaosheng said here, and then said: "We must be good at using the people to fight this battle."

After hearing this, everyone looked at Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng said, "Gu Zi."

"arrive."

Gu Zi immediately stood up and saluted, Li Chaosheng said: "After the meeting is over, spread the content of our meeting so that the people in the whole county know that the bandits and government troops around us are eyeing us and want to rob them of life-saving food."

"Yes."

Li Chaosheng followed up and said: "Qian Jin, Liu Airen, your Construction Corps has now been reorganized into the Lantian County Militia Corps. You select elites from your team, and then disperse them in various villages and towns, and organize the young and strong inside. Take the town as a unit and be ready to support the battle at any time."

"Yes."

At this time, Li Chaosheng looked at Bai Shoumin and said, "Shoumin, post a notice in the name of the county government, saying that our county government will send militiamen to protect the people and lead the people in armed struggle. I hope the people will actively participate."

After hearing this, Bai Shoumin immediately expressed his understanding.

Following Li Chaosheng, he looked at the crowd and said, "Let's take a look at the map. At present, Zhashui County, Hua County, Shangluo, and Chang'an, it can be said that all the counties bordering Lantian are eyeing us."

"However, if they want to enter Lantian, they must first take down Liudayukou. If we guard Liudayukou, they will not be able to enter. Therefore, we must take a long-term plan when dealing with them, and we must not act too hastily."

"Look, everyone, if Shangluo wants to enter our Lantian, he must go to Qingyu. Second cousin, you and Shi Dalei guard here and block them."

At this time, Li Chaosheng marked the location on the map.

"Then there is a gust of wind in Zhashui County. There are 2000 people, of average strength. Most of them are mobs. There are no more than five hundred soldiers who can really fight. If they want to enter Lantian, they must attack Xiaoyangyu first."

"Here is guarded by Luoheita's [-] soldiers. It should be no problem. If they want to attack by force, he will definitely suffer heavy losses."

"After that, there will be Sai Bodang from Hua County and Qin Qiong from Bing. These two are the weakest, and their strength is almost similar to that of Monk Peng back then. They are mobs, so we have to gather our troops to kill him first."

Li Chaosheng said that he drew a circle at Wangyu, the only way from Hua County to Lantian: "So the first battle here is very important."

"The last is Chang'an's Chang'an Wei. This is an old acquaintance. We must be more enthusiastic about him. They are well-equipped and well-trained. They are not weak players. But it doesn't matter. They dare not lose too much, otherwise the higher-ups can't explain it. After all He beat us in Lantian as a sneaky act, but if it was revealed on the surface, they would be a rebel."

"So when they are fighting, they will have a lot of worries. At this time, just guard the gate and don't let them rush through it all at once. That's not a big problem. After a few rounds, they will definitely retreat."

Li Chaosheng analyzed, everyone nodded, Li Chaosheng said: "Everyone don't need to panic, this is not the first time we have fought, and most of our team are veterans of many battles, we have a good chance of winning this battle.

And even if we really can't stand it anymore, at the last moment, the common people will try their best to help us defend Lantian County.

As Li Chaosheng said, the eyes of many generals were all bright, and when they looked over, Li Chaosheng said at this time: "Brothers, work hard. After this battle, we can rush out of Lantian County and extend our tentacles to other counties." , these little blue fields are not our goal.

After hearing this, these generals all stared wide-eyed, and each of them even looked forward to the coming of war.

At present, Li Chaosheng has a total of more than 500 people. After such a long period of expansion in Liudayukou, each cottage has 600 soldiers and horses.

In addition, Li Chaosheng still has a security army of 800 people. In addition to the Construction Corps, Li Chaosheng also has 9000 people, but the Construction Corps is not considered a soldier, and it can only be regarded as a militia.

But don't underestimate the militia, the combat effectiveness of the militia is also very strong.

After Li Chaosheng finished the arrangements, all the generals went back to the mountain overnight to prepare. After all, these bandits killed them at some time, and everyone left. Li Chaosheng called Wang Guixiang over and ordered him to lead the troops out of Lantian to Shangluo tonight.

After Wang Guixiang received Li Chaosheng's order, he led the cavalry out of Lantian overnight, went straight to Shangluo, and then hid in the mountains and forests.

The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings, Li Chaosheng sent everyone away, his eyes became brighter, Lantian is only the first smallest base, what he wants is the whole of Shaanxi, the whole world, this Lantian is the spark, Doomed to start a prairie fire.

Li Chaosheng thought about looking at the map to see if there were any omissions. So far, there are no omissions.

It was late at night, and in several surrounding counties, a group of bandit leaders were watching Lantian. There was a gust of wind in Zhashui, and they were sitting in the village listening to Xizuo's report. Lantian County was blocked, and Xizuo ran out after climbing the mountain road all night. , The mountain road was rugged and almost fell to his death.

After hearing the report, Gu Feng's eyes lit up and said, "Interesting, is Lantian County really so powerful?"

Xi Zuo said: "The biggest obstacle in Lantian is Zhang Mazi from Qingyu. He has thousands of people under his command and is stronger than us. It won't be easy for us to rob them."

There was a rumor that his eyes gradually became sharper and he said: "So we can't do this by ourselves, contact Sai Bodang and sick Qin Qiong in Hua County, and say that I want to jointly attack Lantian with them."

At this moment, someone said: "My lord, the Winged Tiger Shangluo is the strongest, why don't we contact the Winged Tiger?"

After hearing this, a gust of wind looked at the following and said: "Contact Winged Tiger, that guy has long wanted to annex the strength of the surroundings. The gap between us and him is too great. If we go, we can only become cannon fodder under his command."

"Remember, United needs to find someone with comparable strength."

"Yes."

"By the way, you continue to go back to Lantian to inquire about the news."

A gust of wind said to a person on the side.

After hearing this, the man went back immediately. At this time, Shangluo had a winged tiger, and his subordinates said to the winged tiger: "My lord, Zhang Mazi, a bandit from Lantian, is amazingly powerful, and he has Qingyu, who is easy to defend and difficult to attack, should we contact him?" Let the other thieves unite to attack him."

After hearing this, the Winged Tiger laughed and said: "Are we still using our strength to join forces with other bandits to fight Lantian? Go, send someone to Qingyu and tell Zhang Mazi: We will fight Lantian County. After the matter is completed, the food will be distributed to him." Ten percent, as long as he lends us a way."

Hearing this, the subordinate frowned and said, "My lord, can he agree to this?"

The Winged Tiger laughed loudly; "If you don't agree, kill him, hahaha..."

"The king is mighty, the king is mighty."

After hearing this, everyone immediately echoed loudly, and the Winged Tiger laughed, with an unconcealable arrogance on his face, how could a mere Lantian be his opponent.

Chang'an County, Chang'an Guard Station, Commander-in-Chief, is drinking, beside Hu Wan, Cao Qianhu and Tang Qianhu, these three are Commander's confidantes.

At this time, the commander glanced around sharply and said: "This time Lantian and his party must be kept secret, and there must be no leaks, otherwise we will lose our lives."

After hearing this, everyone was silent, and Hu Wan said for a long time, "Brother-in-law, we are officers and soldiers anyway, let's rob Lantian County of grain..."

Before Hu Wan finished speaking, he was stared at by the commander, and then he said: "Shaanxi is already in ruins, and the imperial court has given up on this land. The imperial court should have organized disaster relief for such a big famine this year. , but the imperial court has not even entered Shaanxi with a single grain of rice.”

"Of course, it has nothing to do with us whether the imperial court rescues the disaster or not. We just serve as soldiers to eat food, but I went to Xi'an to ask for food and wages a few days ago. They told me that there is no food in Xi'an, and they want us to raise food and wages by ourselves. Damn it, Lao Tzu If you raise money by yourself, where to find it, you can only focus on Lantian.”

"Lantian Fertility, [-] dans of grain is enough for us to eat for several years. Not only will we not hate food after doing this, we can also sell some, hehehe... Can this be let go of a business?"

After hearing the commander's words, everyone fell silent. This business cannot be let go. After all, their soldiers have no food, so they starve to death.

The reason why the Shaanxi rogues are growing stronger and stronger, apart from the fact that the bandits are strong, the biggest reason is that the court's food and equipment are not in place, and they have nothing, why should they work for you.

But the matter is this matter, but some things can't be put on the bright side, at least the court should not know that the officers and soldiers robbed their own government's food. The commander of the person has met once, and knows that the most important thing for this person is order.

I have told people more than once that everyone said that Daming was corrupt and was about to collapse, but as long as Hong Chengchou was around, Daming would not collapse, and he would not allow Daming to collapse.

What a bold statement, and I have to say that he really did it. It is because of his existence that many people are afraid, which makes this Ming Dynasty not have more rebels, but the court is not up to date.

The commander talked to everyone for a while, and then said: "This operation, Hu Wan, you lead the team, Lao Cao, Xiao Tang, you lead the team, pay attention to the quick decision, and don't love to fight. If the opponent resists, you will lead the team. Intense, you can consider retreating, and the most important thing is not to let the other party catch prisoners, especially if they are alive."

After hearing this, Hu Wan, Cao Qianhu, and Tang Qianhu all nodded. They knew the seriousness of the matter and what they should do. At this time, Hu Wan said, "Brother-in-law, once, once the truth is revealed, you Just say that I acted without authorization, and I will bear all the blame at that time, I just ask you to treat my sister kindly, she is not easy."

Hearing this, the commander immediately said with a gloomy face: "Hu Wan, why are you talking like that, your sister is still waiting for you."

Hu Wan glanced at the commander and said, "Just do as I said, I'll go down first."

Hu Wan left, the commander looked at Hu Wan's back, and frowned slightly, what does this kid mean? Although he asked Hu Wan to lead the team, he had such thoughts in mind if he didn't go, but if you say it in public, you let him what should I do.

When he got out of the house, Hu Wan looked at the sky, but he didn't look at the tent behind and thought to himself, I don't know you yet, and I want to lead the team because I want to take the blame. At that time, I had nothing. Now you don’t want me to tell the truth that I’m the one to take the blame. Otherwise, Cao Qianhu and Tang Qianhu will be disappointed. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, you can’t just give up on me. , so I'm safer.

Hu Wan thought about looking in the direction of Lantian, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, the bandits in Lantian are not weak in fighting power, so he should not run into them this time.

　Happy New Year everyone, I wish you all happiness and health in the new year
