Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 157 Starfire
Outside Xingyang City, spring plowing has begun.

On both sides of the Sishui River, there are busy people everywhere.

Several red flags were planted in the fields, regardless of whether they were under the jurisdiction of Heiyun Mountain or not, all of them had the word "Heiyun" written on them.

All the begging troops passing by were respectful, and no one trampled on the fields.

Looking at the red flags, the Heiyun soldiers couldn't help but look proud.

Occasionally, a farmer raised his head and yelled at the soldiers: "Be careful, we are all Heiyunshan people, be careful of my Heiyunshan military law!"

The soldiers laughed loudly, which puzzled the busy farmers in the field.

But after laughing, everyone became more cautious, taking every step carefully, as if they were afraid of stepping on the field.

Military discipline is mutual, and the Black Cloud Army gains the trust of the people, and the people gain peace.

I am used to seeing bloody battlefields, but suddenly encountering this peaceful scene, I feel like I am in a paradise.

In troubled times, it is quite rare to see this scenery.

Passing by Jing County, I saw red flags planted on the top of the city, with the word "Black Cloud" written on the largest side.

In the past, Han Xu was timid, and after participating in the battle of Liangdu, Heiyunshan proved that he has the ability to protect a side of water and soil.

During the spring plowing season, Han Xu didn't have time to entertain and was busy in the fields all day.

Li Yue didn't bother, the Heiyun army didn't even enter the city, rested under the city wall for one night, and continued on their way the next day.

When he arrived at the boundary of Heiyun Mountain, Li Yue's mind was relieved.

As far as the eye can see, there are flat and fertile fields, criss-crossing paths, winding ditches, adults working in the fields, and children running on the ridges.

Seeing Hei Yunjun, he shouted: "I'm back!"

Then there were cries of "come back" everywhere.

Zhou Qian rode a horse covered in mud and came galloping, with an apologetic expression on his face, "The spring plowing is urgent, and refugees from all over the world have been pouring in recently, all things are complicated, my subordinates are far away, and the general forgives me."

Looking at his thin and dark face, Li Yue sighed, "There is no need for this between you and me."

Zhou Qian wiped the sweat off his face, but his hands were covered with mud, which became more and more dirty, but he couldn't hide the excitement on his face, "Since the general showed his power, people from far and near have come to vote. There are as many as [-] people!"

These are all expected.

When the family members of the begging army from all over Yuzhou come up, the population will increase.

"General, who do you think this is?" Zhou Qian pointed to a person behind him.

Li Yue's eyes lit up, "Tian Baozi?"

Tian Baozi stepped forward with a little embarrassment, "The villain has seen the general."

After one or two years, people feel a lot calmer, maybe life is not easy outside, and the thieves are also very introverted these days.

Wei Shan stepped forward and punched him on the shoulder, "Haha, why are you doing it now?"

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!" Li Yue was naturally happy when the old man reunited. Although he was a thief, there was a way to be a thief. When he left without saying goodbye, he left all his armor.

Li Yue still remembers this affection.

"In the future, I will wait for my brother to go to the battlefield to kill Jiehu!" Wei Shan was quite excited.

Unexpectedly, Tian Baozi was not very interested, so he cupped his hands at Li Yue, "To be honest, the villain has been wandering outside for two years, and the brothers around him have dispersed one by one, and they are disheartened. It is enough to have a piece of land that can be cultivated peacefully... "

This change is too great.

Back then, Tian Baozi led the thieves and fought Wei Shan against Gao Li's guards with an axe. Unexpectedly, he has become like this in the past two years.

But it's normal to think about it, where did the thieves come from?Isn't it that the farmers who can't survive gather together in the mountains and forests?

Li Yuewen said: "In the future, if you want to farm, you can farm. In two days, I will find you a woman and build a house first!"

"General..." Tian Baozi choked up.

Seeing him like this, Li Yue felt a sense of loss. He didn't know where Meng Kai had gone. For such a long time, there was no news.

The army returned to the mountain, except for the scouts, they rested separately.

But the soldiers couldn't stay idle, took off their armor, and immediately got busy in their fields.

Li Yue searched for the families of the fallen soldiers one by one. Each household received thirty bolts of cloth, ten stones of grain, one mule, two sheep, and one stone of grain every month.

The widowed and lonely elderly were sent to live in Beishan, and the youngest son was sent to Shangwutang.

With the current conditions of Heiyun Mountain, this is the only thing that can be done, but Li Yue will not forget these people, and put their names on the cliff of Beishan one by one.

To respect the soldiers who died in battle is to respect yourself.

Within two days, begging troops from all over Yuzhou sent their families here one after another.

Some small groups of beggars simply moved all of them here.

The population of Heiyun Mountain has expanded rapidly, and there are people everywhere on the mountain and below.

In the past, they were always worried about other people's attacks, whether it was Zhang Yu, the governor of Yuzhou, or Liu Guo, the governor of Luozhou, but now, it was not Heiyunshan who was worried about them, but they were worried about Heiyunshan.

Both of them tactfully shrunk their troops and gave way to the Weishui Basin.

Li Yue also moved the population from the mountain to Sishuibao, Weishuibao, Jing County, Gong County, Chenggao and other places at the foot of the mountain.

After a rough calculation, I own thirteen large and small cities.

Except for Xingyang County where the Zheng family is entrenched, the entire Xingyang County has actually belonged to Heiyun Mountain.

In addition, there are enclaves of begging army that are like sparks all over the place.

For example, Jia County, Fucheng, and Wuyang in Yingchuan County, Zhaoling, Shangcai, and Qiyang in Runan County, Mang County, Fuyang, and Xiaqiu in Peiguo, Mengxian, Shixian, and Jishi in Liangguo, etc. .

Although the county seat is in the hands of Jiezhao officials, the outside of the city has already been ruled by the begging army.

Many county magistrates, like Han Xu, the county magistrate of Beijing, hang the black cloud banner directly on the city...

These areas are scattered in various places and cannot be connected as a whole, so it is extremely difficult to manage.

The throats of Xiangcheng, Xuchang, and Mixian are all in the hands of Zhang Yu, the governor of Yuzhou, and Zhang Yu has recently been in closer contact with the south.

Li Yue stared at the sand table and thought hard about how to unite these scattered places.

It is not feasible to attack Zhang Yu in the short term.

If he moved on his side, Xie Shang from Huainan would definitely support him.

And the [-] to [-] Xiongnu army of the Liu Kingdom in Yangcheng will certainly not stand idly by.

Heiyun Mountain could not afford this level of melee, and there were only five troops in the entire Heiyun Mountain, plus Zhu Xu's [-] Jingxiang troops.

Zhang Yu and Liu Guo were able to pull out a team of 3 horses in an instant.

The top priority is to expand the army first, and spring plowing is the top priority right now, and other things have to be postponed.

There was no one around to discuss, and it happened that Yueji came to visit, and seeing Li Yue staring at the small red flags on the sand table, he chuckled, "Since we can't convene, why don't we send someone there."

"How to send someone?" Li Yue laughed.

Yueji is extremely intelligent, with excellent knowledge and medical skills. Back then when Heiyun Mountain was attacked by the Gaoli guards, she also contributed a lot.

Li Yue asked her to take care of the medical camp and the women on the mountain, but it was only in order.

"The major affairs of the country are nothing more than farming and war. Brother, why don't you send an envoy to urge him to cultivate the fields, and then send General Hei Yun to train soldiers for him?" Yue Ji spread her hands, looking charming and charming.

"Good strategy!" Li Yue was surprised. These two moves were equivalent to grabbing the lifeblood of the begging army everywhere.

The garrison envoys are in charge of the grain and grass, and the black cloud generals are in charge of the army. When the army is mobilized, a single spark will turn into a prairie fire!
No, it is not enough to manage food and grass, and manage the army, and the ideological level is also grasped.

Heiyunshan’s mode of telling Qin and Han stories can be promoted, and the trinity, even if the beggar leaders have other ideas, they will not be able to shake the people below.

"If you have any ideas in the future, you can teach me more!" Yueji is a good seedling, she is enough to be an assistant, but the key is to be loyal. She is the same brother and sister as Li Yueqing. Heiyun Mountain has no top mastermind for the time being, so she can only survive coming.

　Two more ah ah
