Chapter 244 Going south to rob food

Wu Erleng is the patriarch of the Oroqen tribe that Zhao Qiang met when he was from the north of Songshan Fort. Attract people of all ethnic groups to vote, and then take them to capture other tribes, and grow yourself like a snowball. 【】For those young men of various ethnic groups who go to pull people, Zhao Qiang's promise to them is how much money you can get if you pull one person, and how much money you can get if you pull two or three people. In short, as long as you pull more people, you The more money you get.After this policy was implemented, it did bring some benefits to the Guan Ning Army. About a thousand people of all ethnic groups were tempted by this policy to vote for the Guan Ning Army, and some young and strong who volunteered to vote became the backbone of the army. Most of them participated in the three-stage battle of Dingyuan, and made great contributions to the strength of the Guanning Army.However, after the start of the Dingyuan battle, this policy stopped, because Zhao Qiang did not have so much gold and silver to pay the bounty, and as the number of people forcibly looted increased, the policy of "pulling people's heads" was no longer necessary. Who wants to spend money to buy it when they get it for nothing?

Under Zhao Qiang's instruction, Wu'er Leng went to Yafaha Oroqen and other tribes to recruit people for him. It has been more than four months since he set off, but he has not heard back at all, and neither has his tribe. Knowing his whereabouts, Zhao Qiang was still thinking about it at the beginning, but with the frequent fighting, the expansion of the territory, and the expansion of the army, he gradually forgot about Wuer Leng, only thinking that this person might have an accident on the way south , is no longer in this world.Zhao Qiang couldn't help being surprised to find him in the Qing army's grain transport fleet now, but after being surprised, he was a little worried because he didn't know how to deal with the Oroqen patriarch.

If it were someone else, Zhao Qiang would probably let someone get rid of him without even looking at him, because he was no longer trustworthy, and he might even have betrayed Guan Ningjun, otherwise how could he appear in the Qing army.But Wu Erleng was different from others. Many of the tribesmen he left behind in the Guan Ning Army have now become officers and the backbone of the Guan Ning Army.Such as Baihu Malji of the Guards Division, General Banner Pilar, Luoer and others.With the growth of the Guan Ning Army, the clansmen left behind by Uer Leng have served as officers at all levels in the Guan Ning Army. Due to their blood relationship and tribal relationship, they have faintly formed a small group, belonging to Wu Er Leng's direct line to a certain extent. People and horses.If Wu Erleng was killed because he suspected that he had betrayed Guan Ningjun, I am afraid that those Oroqen officers would be resentful. The situation of the military fleet.

In fact, regardless of whether Wu Erleng appeared in the Qing army's grain transport fleet voluntarily or because of negligence, Zhao Qiang hoped that he would disappear forever, because it would be good for his clansmen and Zhao Qiang.The Guan Ning army can only have one commander and one leader, and any factors that hinder this point of view must be removed, otherwise Zhao Qiang cannot change this era by himself.Iron blood and absolute authority are the prerequisites to ensure that Zhao Qiang can completely defeat the Manchus with the Guan Ning Army, a mixed Han-Yi army. If he cannot achieve absolute authority in the hearts of his subordinates, Zhao Qiang will not be able to carry out his intentions thoroughly. , nor can he build the Guanning Army according to his needs.People like Wuer Leng who can influence a group of officers are definitely not suitable to stay in the Guanning Army, but it doesn't mean that they will be killed if they want to be killed. There are several Oroqen officers in the cavalry brigade who went south with Zhao Qiang. People already knew of Wu Erleng's existence, so there was no way to kill Wuerleng in front of them.

After thinking about it, Zhao Qiang asked his soldiers to bring Wuer Leng over. He wanted to ask the Oroqen patriarch how he appeared in the Qing army's grain fleet and how he did what he had entrusted to him.After the soldiers went to lead the people, Zhao Qiang called Zheng Guohui and told him: "The people who lead you unload all the grain on the boat, and send someone to inform the people behind that they will rush to Sandaotun in two days and take the grain. Send back even one piece.”

"Yes, Marshal, the last general will do it."

Upon hearing the order, Zheng Guohui immediately led his subordinates to the pier. Once they arrived at the pier, the commander ordered the captured boatmen and Qing soldiers to move the grain to the pier, and Grivsky's Cossack brigade also joined the moving team.The Qing army’s grain fleet consisted of 27 large and small ships. According to preliminary estimates, the grain of the ships and the black beans eaten by the horses amounted to several thousand shi. There was also a ship of salt and vegetable oil, all packed in hemp sacks and pottery. It is also very laborious.However, all the Guanning soldiers who participated in the transportation were enthusiastic, even the Russian soldiers were overjoyed. It was the first time for them to receive so much food, and it was also the first time for them to participate in the robbery. So many victories can be robbed.

The captured Qing garrison soldiers and armored men thought they had encountered bandits. According to the practice of old melon thieves outside the customs, most of their hands were robbing property and rarely hurting people, so these people were not afraid.But when those Rakshasa people appeared, they all became uneasy, and some armored men began to whisper, as if they wanted to join forces to resist, because they had all heard the ferocity of the Rakshasa people, and some people had also witnessed it. The villages that have been looted by the Rakshasa people know that these Rakshasa people are all demon kings who kill people without blinking an eye. If they work for them now, they will definitely kill themselves after the work is done.Rather than being killed, it is better to fight.Fortunately, this sign was discovered in time by a small banner of Sauron, and he was decisive in killing more than a dozen armored men on the ship he was guarding without asking for instructions. Report the situation to the headquarter.Knowing that the captives were going to make trouble, the general flag was not relentless, and randomly selected fifty garrison soldiers who were carrying food, and then dragged them all to the dock. Fall into the river.In this way, the captives became more honest, and most of the troublemakers were killed. How could the remaining people dare to be second-minded? Go to those rakshasas and bandits.

Sandaotun is the only wharf at the confluence of the Songhua River and Heilongjiang River. In addition, only Fuyu City in Songjiang Huayou has a wharf for unloading grain, so these grains can only be unloaded at Sandaotun, and the fleet cannot Drive downriver to the assembly point where the follow-up grain transport team is located, because there is no way to stop there.In this way, the follow-up grain transportation team must rush to Sandaotun, and then transport the grain back with oxen and horse carts.From Murgen to Sandaotun, half of the roads are narrow and difficult mountain trails, and some places even have to climb over mountains, so one can imagine how quickly these grains can be transported back slowly.Fortunately, the outside world is aware of what happened in Sandaotun now. Zhao Qiang learned from Guo Murkou that in the past few months, except for the grain transport fleet and escorting the Qing soldiers, no other troops have come here at all, so There is still enough time left for the Guanning army, so there is no need to worry about meeting the Qing soldiers on the way to transport grain.

In order to ensure the safety of food transportation, Zhao Qiang made some arrangements.The grain transportation team from Shouyi City, together with the captured civilians and captives, transported the grain to the rear, while he led the Cossack brigade until the food was safely transported to Morgan and then returned.The cavalry brigade was exploring the way in front of the grain transport team. Once the Qing army was found, they had to be wiped out immediately to ensure that the grain transport team, which was moving like a snail, would not be attacked by the Qing soldiers.Guo Mu'er appeared from nowhere, standing behind Zhao Qiang with a flattering smile.Just now, Bai Ang and Zhao Qiang took him aside during the competition, and then Guo Muer took advantage of the unsuspecting and slipped into a stone room, and only bravely came out when the shouting outside stopped, to confirm that no real white banner soldiers ran out. He smiled brightly, and regained his former composure. When he saw Zhao Qiang, he didn't wait for the other party to call him, but just followed behind him. He knew people very well. He didn't talk if Zhao Qiang didn't ask him. Just staying behind with a smile like that, he looks like a turtle slave in a brothel.Zhao Qiang didn't have the time to pay attention to him now, so he let him stay behind and didn't avoid him when giving orders to Grievsky.

Seeing that the Raksha people were so obedient to Zhao Qiang, a Han slave, Guo Mur was amazed, but he knew what to ask and what not to ask, what expressions he could show and what expressions he couldn't, so standing there, he didn't mind. It was revealed that his face had changed.

When Wu Er was escorted over, Zhao Qiang asked Grievsky and the translator to go down first, and told Grievsky to do as he said just now. After Grievsky and the translator went down, Zhao Qiang turned his head to face Guo Muer smiled slightly, but before the smile faded away, Guo Muer bowed knowingly and obediently went outside to wait.After Zhao Qiang was left alone in the room, he hugged Wu Er with a smile on his face: "Patriarch, long time no see!"

"Master Qian, it's been a long time!"

In addition to the general banner of the Han army, the person who found Wu Erleng on the boat also had a small Oroqen flag, so Wuerleng already knew that Zhao Qiang was the one who robbed the grain ship, and several clansmen who had become officers also accompanied him along the way. Wu'er was so moved by the cold and warm questions. After all, he was his own clansman, and he was closer than anyone else.He didn't worry about the way he came here, because he knew that he had never done anything wrong to Zhao Qiang, and that he hadn't done what the other party entrusted to him was only because of some accident. This accident not only made him unable to go back, but also made him The grain transport fleet of the Qing army appeared here.Seeing that Zhao Qiang was so kind to him at this meeting, Wu Er was even more determined. He only waited for the other party to ask questions, and then he would tell the other party all the hardships he had suffered in the past few months, so that he would know how loyal he was.
