Volume 3: War 478: Military-civilian conflict

Although the battle in Ningbao Town was not large in scale, it showed the combat power of the Immortal Legion. This battle left a deep impression on the generals of the Black Crusade, and it could even be said to be shocking.

Although there were already many rumors about Hu You in the past, this time, I almost saw the terribleness of Hu You's troops at home. Although this battle did not lead to a large number of troops from the Black Crusades, it laid a good foundation for conquering the Black Crusades in the future.

In the study, Hu You was considering the plan for the next part. This unexpected war in Ningbao Town gave him a lot of initiative. Now he has two choices. One is to wait for the successor troops to come up, take the remaining power of victory, continue to march forward, further suppress Gulite's territory, and gain more control over huā Hezhou. The other is to consolidate the occupied areas according to the original plan and start mining coal resources in these places for the arsenal to make weapons.

Both developments are very powerful for Hu You. Territory and weapons are a powerful standard for an army, and it is not so heartbreaking for anyone to win. However, Hu You has not been crazy enough to be at the same time. He knows that with his current strength, he can only do one of them.

"Report!"

Just when Hu was worried and could not choose, there were soldiers outside Mén asking for a visit.

"Come in!" Hu You called the soldier in, looked at the mud all over him, and knew that the soldier had been rushing over for a long time.

Hu You asked, "Where did you come from?"

The soldier replied: "The young marshal, the people came from Shahuang."

When Hu You heard this, his heart was jumping and he hurriedly asked, "Is it because something happened to Sha Huang?"

"Yes, Young Marshal, Sha Huang has undergone a civil rebellion. General Li Pi was killed!"

"What?" Hu You suppressed the urge to slap the table, took a deep breath, and said, "What happened? Explain it clearly to me."

Through the soldiers' teachings, Hu You realized that the general process of the entire incident was about. The source of this incident also started with Xu Yinhui's false accusation against the Immortal Legion.

In order to rob the golden phoenix, Xu Yinhui sprinkled a lot of money and incited a dispute between the military and civilians in Shahuang. This incident was seen by Hu You with his own eyes. In this regard, he also gave instructions to Li Pi. Never act rashly and should handle it with a heart.

However, Hu You underestimated the integrity of the people and the soldiers' strength. After he left Shahuang, many victims ran to Shahuang's military camp and demanded that illegal soldiers be severely punished to return the people's justice.

Sha Huang commanded Li Pi, who was okay in war, had no experience in dealing with such civil issues. He misunderstood Hu You's instructions. Hu You asked him to deal with it with it carefully, but he didn't know what to do, so he simply refused to deal with it, and the people came to avoid it.

After watching the quarrel for a long time, no one paid attention to it. He decided that the military was guilty and did not dare to come out to see them. In addition, those who had already taken Xu Yinhui's money secretly made bad things, stirring up everyone's emotions, and finally escalated the protests.

The people started to verbally provoke the soldiers in body language. They even threw stones into the military camp and made homemade moors. After the incident of two soldiers burning to death by the moors, the soldiers finally couldn't help but fight back against the people.

The soldiers all went up with anger. At first, they just used their hands, but then they couldn't help but move the pistol. The veterans all had a special jealousy, and they were jealous of blood. This time, something big happened. More than a hundred people who came to make trouble were hacked to death on the spot.

The people of Shahuang were dissatisfied with the arrival of the Immortal Bird Legion. Now more than a hundred people died. They stopped and immediately began to recruit people to retaliate. One by one, one by one, and one by one, and the East Village Shangxi Village was not vague. In half a day, tens of thousands of people gathered.

Shahuang itself is just a market with little strategic value. The total number of troops there is only one thousand. A thousand people confronting ten thousand people is obviously a loss.

At this time, Li Pi finally made another mistake. He actually wanted to negotiate with the angry people with his own strength. The result can be imagined, and he directly killed others.

Immediately afterwards, there was another big battle between the military and civilians. The soldiers of the Immortal Legion were tempered from the war. Although they faced nearly 10,000 people, they did not suffer much. After losing dozens of people, they rushed out of the siege and temporarily withdrew from Shahuang.

Li Pi's deputy general knew that the matter was getting worse this time, so he quickly sent someone to report Hu You. This is what happened in the past.

After listening to the soldiers' reports, Hu You asked some questions in detail, and asked the soldiers to go down to rest, and then fell into deep thought.

Hu You had seen a civil rebellion, but this was the first time he encountered a civil rebellion against the Immortal Bird Legion. Hu You had always been extremely strict in the military and strictly prohibited any physical conflicts between soldiers and the people, so he would prevent such incidents from happening. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened.

There are all reasons why things have developed to this point, but the key point is that they are developing too fast, and they occupy the territory, but many soft foundations are not laid well. It seems that continuing to advance is not advisable. Taking this as a warning, moving the territory is the right way!

The matter of Shahuang must be resolved as soon as possible, but Hu You must solve it himself. The matter of civil unrest is definitely not a matter. Once it is allowed to develop, the consequences will be unimaginable.

That night, Hu You rushed to Sha Huangji. Huang Jinfeng's body had not yet fully recovered, so he could only stay in Huang Mansion for the time being, and Huang Shengyi took care of him. The troops who had previously protected Huang Jinfeng back, after a battle, there were more than 600 people and dozens of wounded people, and Hu You also stayed. In addition, Hu You also kept Huang yàn Yang. This son was not very capable, but he was a little lucky. Hu You hoped to use his luck to protect the Huang Mansion. Now he was a little worried. Nothing happened to the Huang Mansion.

Ma Jiabiao, and Hu You finally arrived at Sha Huang. Sha Huang's troops had temporarily left Sha Huangji and set up camp ten miles away. Because of the urgent breakthrough, the soldiers were in a grain tent and had nothing to worry about to clean up. They had money, but because of the tense relationship with the people, they couldn't even buy food. When Hu You came, they were actually cooking wild vegetables.

Seeing this scene, Hu You realized the importance of the people's hearts. He secretly decided that even if he occupied less territory in the future, he must establish a good relationship with the people. Those who win the people's hearts will win the world!

Li Pi's deputy general was named Li Liang, Li Pi's distant cousin. Seeing Hu You, this general under 20 years old, was so aggrieved that he almost cried. The soldiers on the hillside were silent when they saw Hu You coming, and their morale was very low.

Hu You understood Li Liang's mood. Not only did he not scold him, but instead patted him on the shoulder, comforted him a few words, and expressed his condolences for Li Pi's death.

After a brief consolation, Hu You immediately called for a military meeting to discuss solutions to the Shahuangji mob.

"Li Liang, let me tell you about the current situation of Sha Huang!"

In the sudden situation, Li Liangneng made a quick decision to retreat and brought all the soldiers out, which has already demonstrated his talent. Hu You still liked him.

Li Liang suppressed the pain of losing his relatives and reported to Hu Youhui: "Report to the young marshal that Shahuangji has organized a militia, and it seems that he wants to confront our army."

Yu nodded and asked the officer, "Tell me what you think."

A general took the lead and said angrily: "I'm afraid of them. According to me, we will directly dispatch troops and destroy them. I don't believe it yet. A xiǎoxiǎo Shahuang Club can still turn against the will of heaven!"

"Yes, I think so too."

The generals started to discuss. More than half of the people who agreed to send troops to Shahuang Town accounted for.

Wugu was provoked by others, and even the boss died. Now that they were driven out, they still had to eat wild vegetables. No one was in a heart that they didn’t have a fire. Since its establishment, such a thing has never happened to the Immortal Bird Legion. This matter has to be spread. From the top to bottom, they all have to make people laugh to death.

Li Liang strongly opposed: "Young marshal, you can't fight. The enemy of the army is not the common people. If you start fighting, the consequences will be unimaginable! I have checked that their head is a man named Tang Shui. He has a certain prestige among the people. If he can convince him, I believe that this matter can be solved."

Hu You looked at Li Liang with praise and nodded, "Deputy General Li said it well. The enemy of our Immortal Legion is not ordinary people. This incident was initiated by a few people with ulterior motives. Once we start a war against the people, we will fall into the trap. This matter can only be resolved by peaceful means, and we must never use force!"

That night, Hu You, like an ordinary soldier, spent the night on the hillside on a bonfire. The next morning, Hu You took Li Liang with him, dressed up as an ordinary person, and went to Shahuangji.

Shahuangji is a market, connected from all sides. Although there are spontaneous people looking at various intersections, with Hu You's ability, it's easy to come in.

"Young Master, why are we here?" Li Liang asked in confusion. He didn't understand why Hu You went to Shahuang and didn't go anywhere, and went directly to this inconspicuous xiǎo tea shop.

Of course Hu You wouldn't tell Li Liang that he had met Tang Shui before and knew that Tang Shui had been chasing the tea boss here.

Hu You smiled and said, "You will know later. Why? If you are hungry, please order something to eat first. The wild vegetables are really not a big deal."

The tea shop business is good today. At this time, 70% of the people have already sat there. The tea people in the shop, without exception, are talking about the conflict between the people and the Immortal Legion.

Hu You was drinking tea while listening to the chat and chatting, and knew more about the public opinion here. Not all the guests chatting here were against the Immortal Legion. Some were talking good things about the legion, and some were even analyzing the origin and the cause of the incident. Some people really guessed that they were indifferent.

"It seems that the people here are still a little careful. Hu You nodded with relief and said to Li Liang.

Li Liang agreed: "The eyes of the people are also sharp. They know what is good and what is bad."

"You said it's right, have you been to school."

"Well, when I was at home, I studied with a teacher for a few years."

"You are still young, ask carefully, and you will have a lot of future prospects!"

Hu You put the last bun on the table and whispered, "xiǎo 2, xiǎo 2!"

xiǎohuā also came to the store to help today. After hearing Hu You's call, he ran over immediately and asked sweetly: "Customer, what are your instructions?"

Hu You said: "Girl, the buns here are really good. Is it a pig stuffed with pigs?" Hu You began to get close to xiǎohuā. When he heard the name Tang Shui yesterday, Hu You thought of starting from xiǎohuā.

xiǎohuā smiled and said, "The guest is really good at eating it. It's not bad. The buns we have here are indeed made of pork stuffing. And they are the best pork!"

Hu You pointed at Li Liang and smiled and said, "I just said that the taste is so good. It must be pigs. Fortunately, it's not me and Zheng. Now you are convinced. Girl, bring me twenty more."

"Twenty?" xiǎohuā was a little stunned. These stuffed buns are the signature snacks of their tea shop. They are full of ingredients. Most people are full of two. No matter how big the diners have, they only eat four. She remembered that she had already served six of them before this table, and she wanted twenty more, so how could she eat them?

"What, have you bought it?" Hu You looked disappointed.

"Ah, no, no." xiǎohuā shook his eyes repeatedly, "I'm just wondering why the guest officer would want so many at once."

"Haha, so that's it." Hu You looked at the hook on xiǎohuā and smiled and said, "I don't want to eat it all here. Look at my belly, I can't hold that much. I want to take it on the way to eat."

He hesitated for a moment and reminded him: "But the guest, this pork bun is hot, otherwise you will have diarrhea. Are you sure you want twenty?"

"That's it..." Hu You turned his head and asked Li Liang, "How far should we go to find your cousin Tang Shui?"

Li Liang suddenly heard Hu You's question and was slightly stunned. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately responded and cooperated: "I don't know either. I just know that it's close to Sha Huang. My father didn't say where it was. It seems that there is something to look for."

Hu You gave Li Liang a good answer, turned to xiǎohuā and said, "Girl, we are not sure about finding someone, and I like your buns very much. Please think of a solution."

The conversation between Hu You and Li Liang was entirely for xiǎohuā to listen to. Whether it can be useful depends on how xiǎohuā reacts next.

Seeing that hesitated for a moment, xiǎo asked, "I just heard that the person the guest is looking for is Tang Shui?"

Hu You cried in his heart and said calmly: "Yes. Oh, by the way, look at me, a stupid brain. The girl opens a shop and naturally knows a lot of people. I don't know if the girl knows Tang Shui. We have something urgent to look for him. We have been searching for him for two days, but we haven't found it."

xiǎohuā is kind, but he didn't know that Hu You was lying to him. He replied, "I know someone named Tang Shui, but I don't know if it's the person you are looking for."

Hu You hurriedly turned to Li Liang and said, "Why don't you tell the girl what your cousin looks like."

Li Liangxin said, "I just died, one of them, so how can I have any cousin?"

Li Liang and Ben had never seen Tang Shui, but he had no choice but to see him. He replied: "Oh, I haven't seen him for more than ten years. I don't know what he looks like. I only know that he is twenty years old today and works in a calligraphy and painting shop!"

xiǎohuā naturally knew that Tang Shui used to work in a calligraphy and painting shop, with the same name and surname, and her age was the same as her job. She naturally felt that the Tang Shui that Hu You and the others mentioned knew the same person as her.

Although she has never agreed to Tang Shui's pursuit, Tang Shui often helps her. When something happens in the store, Tang Shui is always the first to arrive. xiǎohuā has a good feeling about Tang Shui. These two people are close to Tang Shui, so of course she can't ignore them.

xiǎohuā replied: "I think the Tang Shui you mentioned should know the same person as me."

Hu You said happily: "Really? That's great. Please tell us where can I find him?"

xiǎohuā frowned and said, "The place where he lives is not very far from here, but I don't know if he is at home at this time. I would rather do this. I ask my brother to go and send a message to you, call him here, and let you meet."

Hu You were thinking about how to find a way to ask xiǎohuā to help him find Tang Shui. He made his own suggestions, but it was much easier to save trouble. He nodded repeatedly to agree.

Seeing that xiǎohuā asked his brother to help him call someone, Hu You used huā's sweet words and tricked him into borrowing a wing room in the backyard. This layout was completed. Just wait for Tang Shui to appear and then take the next action.

Li Liang simply checked everything around, returned to Hu You, and asked strangely: "Young Marshal, how did you know that this girl xiǎohuā knew that Tang Shui. I remember that this information I received did not mention this."

Hu You smiled mysteriously and said, "You don't know a lot, learn slowly. Prepare it, I see that Tang Shui will come soon."

Li Liang worried, "What if Tang Shui knew that he didn't have a cousin like me, what if he didn't come?"

Hu You smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't mention a relative like my cousin who doesn't know whether he has any. Even if you say you are his father who has been dead for many years, he will come, and it will come faster!"

Tang Shui heard that his cousin had not seen him for more than ten years and was wondering, but he had already found the shop of xiǎohuā, so he had to go and take a look.

Otherwise, no one can say that the rookie has no experience. He has been pushed to the public now, but he has no sense of self-protection at all. Without a single person, he came to the tea shop himself.
