Chapter 462 Decisive to retreat

"plague?"

When the news came, Xinqu immediately became solemn and quickly ordered people to investigate.

In the afternoon, the fresh-coated piglet came.

"Stay away... stay away..."

Xin Qu saw that this guy was approaching as soon as he came up, and quickly waved his hand: "I heard that you and your brother broke into Beitangyi?"

Xianyu Xiaozhu's face stiffened when he heard this, and he quickly said: "Uncle, don't worry, there is absolutely no shit on me! It was the bastard who got into the wrong place and made the whole body stink."

"So, shit caused the plague?"

"Ah? No! I made a mistake." Xianyu Xiaozhu patted his head and figured out the reason. He could only explain in full, "It's too smelly in Beitangyi. Just now Wu brought people in and they were immediately run away. Now. Beitang City is now garrisoned by them.

But because there is no way to live in Beitangyi now, he asked someone to ask me what to do.

I have no choice, but I remembered that uncle, you have slaves who specialize in collecting feces, so I wanted to ask if there is a solution. "

After roughly understanding the whole story, Xin Qu was calm, but he was already laughing.

They can all think of the war scene that yoked them that night, which must have been quite heroic.

"There is no other solution. It is winter now, and if you want to deal with it by washing with water, it will take at least ten days and a half of natural evaporation. So, if you want to solve it as quickly as possible, set fire to Beitangyi and use high temperature to solve it."

After Xinqu finished speaking, he continued: "Moreover, feces that has not been processed on a large scale is not safe and may become a source of plague infection at any time.

So I suggest you to isolate yourself for a while.

I'll evacuate immediately. "

"Uncle is leaving?" Xianyu Xiaozhu didn't expect Xin Qu to be so decisive.

"We have to go. Although Beitang City was captured, as you said, when you entered, Beitang City was full of shit and there was almost no place to stay. There are often too many sources of plague hidden in such places. The best way to solve the problem is not to gather too many people here.

Also, we cannot wait until spring, otherwise the plague will spread and it will be a disaster. "

Xin Qu nodded, "Besides, our goal of having the Xin family has been accomplished. Do those on Hijikata want land or the remaining population? I will go to communicate with Wang Ziwu in a few days.

In short, Beitang cannot be inhabited. You and your brother should discuss it quickly. It is best to burn it with the corpses.

Take advantage of the fact that it is still winter, otherwise we will be in big trouble if we delay it until spring. "

"I see!"

Xian Yu Xiaozhu had no doubt that he was there. Xin Qu rarely made unintended mistakes. Since he believed that the plague might break out, it was better to believe it than not believe it.

After sending away Xianyu Xiaozhu, Xinqu immediately summoned the remaining people, as well as Elder Sima and Shu Dagu.

"This time, the crusade has come to an end. The next orderly evacuation will be our test.

Take Gaoyi and Jiyi as soon as possible. All the nearby tribes, whether they are savages or ordinary tribes, can plunder all they can. If they really can't take them away, they will burn the house clean for me. "

Xinqu gave the order coldly, and then continued: "Shu Dagu, you are the vanguard of this return to the north."

"Okay." Shu Dagu nodded, got up and left with a group of foreigners who had recently been sorted out.

These were slaves rescued by Shu Dagu or other savage followers. Although there were only 356 of them, they were young and strong. Xin Qu couldn't command them, so he let Shu Dagu take them away.

After Chu Dagu left, Xinqu continued to make arrangements: "Inform Yao Cong who was besieging Jiyi and ask him to give priority to cleaning up the surrounding tribes and people, drive all the old and weak into Jiyi, and then arrange for a retreat one after another. Within seventeen days , retreat to Xindi."

"The remaining people started to pack up the camp. Before everyone sets off, prepare hot water. We are afraid that there will not be many water sources that can be used on the way, so the amount of water this time is limited. Try not to drink too much. Human activities have affected the land and snow. Waters and rivers, beware of plague contagion and outbreaks.”

"Bird eggs."

"Eh!"

"Inform the rear to stop the transportation of grain and grass, and withdraw at full speed to Changping and even various counties. Before spring, I will resume production without any mistakes."

"Yes!" Bird Egg quickly left, and soon the sound of horse hooves was heard from the camp.

"Okay, let's take action. The front camp will become the rear camp, and the rear camp will become the front camp. Leave slowly."

Xin Qu stood up and everyone went down to leave.

Plague, this excuse is simply the perfect withdrawal plan.

This fight is over, and for all parties, it is an excuse for the past.

"Chief, outside, Snake Hao is back." Xinqu raised his eyebrows, walked out, and then saw outside the camp gate, behind Snake Hao's staff, a group of people walking dejectedly and tied up.

Although they look gray and gray, both of them have very well-proportioned figures, full of strength and beauty, and sharp eyes that do not look like death.

noble.

Xinqu laughed out loud.

"Clan leader, what's wrong?" Qing Yan looked at Xin Qu strangely.

"Okay, we can bring back at least fifteen thousand people this time."

Xinqu was quite excited.

At this time, the car stopped and Snake Hao heard this and was helped out of the driveway by two girls who came over: "It seems that the patriarch already knows their identities?"

Xin Qu nodded: "There must be a main war faction within the Rong clan. If my guess is correct, it must be the sons of the mountains!"

Sons of the Mountains are the collective name of the Rong tribes located in the mountains such as Shouyang and Yangquan.

Two-thirds of them are men, so they are also called the tribe of many sons.

They were subjects directly under the rule of King Shang, maintained a stable relationship of submission with King Shang, and were loyal supporters of King Shang's rule.

Therefore, they were considered part of the civil service. Even during the Wu Ding period, this group of people lived directly between Xingtai and Handan.

They were opposed to peace talks before, but they were more serving the future development of the Shang Wang family and were quite loyal.

As for the interests of the Yourong clan, in their eyes, they are only used as a stepping stone for the Shang clan. If we really want to talk about it, this group of people should not be called the Yourong clan, but should be called the royal family and the disciples.

"Indeed." Snake Hao nodded slightly and briefly communicated her long-term operation during this period.

"Well, indeed, I will not accept a duel."

"You do not dare?!!"

Some of the people being escorted heard Xin Qu's words and questioned him directly.

After all, Xin's dialect is mixed with a lot of words from Dayi merchants. With a little bit of piecing together, you can understand what Xin Qu and Snake Hao were talking about.

Xin Qu shook his head slightly: "Slaves have no right to duel. In the Xin family, slaves can only work in exchange for the right to fight on the battlefield.

Of course, if you want to go to the battlefield, you still need to contract your household head. After testing your loyalty, he is willing to take you to the battlefield.

Before this, you have no other chance. "

"You!!! The nobles cannot be humiliated!"

The man was roaring. Xinqu took out his ears and said to Qingyan: "While it's winter now, chop off their big toes with a fire-heated knife, then brand their arms with slave marks, and starve them for a few more days." .

They also understood that nobles were nothing in the eyes of You Xin. Only by relying on their own hands and military exploits could they be qualified to be called nobles.

If they keep yelling, they will be banned from the battlefield for ten years. "

"you you……"

This group of people was quickly taken away. If anyone tried to resist, they were immediately killed.

Opportunities are given to those who are willing to cherish them. Xin Qu actually rarely treats slaves like this. After all, even cutting off a thumb in winter has a 20% chance of causing infection.

Use this method as little as possible.

"You have done a good job. When you go back, divide your tribe into households and migrate to Changping."

"Thank you, Patriarch." Snake Hao nodded.

"Well, that's it, you rest for a few days and then evacuate."

"Leaving now?" Snake Hao was a little surprised, and then he realized that there were people packing things everywhere.

"Beitangyi has been captured, but it has been under siege for a long time and too much excrement has accumulated. I am worried that a plague will break out in the spring next year, so I have started to stop going south and prepare to evacuate. At least before the spring, we will evacuate to Xindi. "

"understood."
