Chapter 64: Three people must have my teacher
Li Xiaofei and others walked for three days before they encountered a river blocking the way after walking a hundred miles. Zhu Yaoshi stepped forward and pointed to the other side: "Fuyang City is on the other side, but the river is frozen. If the ice is thick enough,
We can just rush over."
As soon as he finished speaking, many big rocks were thrown from the opposite side and hit the ice. Many holes were made in the ice, and the soldiers quickly split and fell into the water. A group of cavalry came over from the opposite side and said: "Barbarians, you guys are flying over here.
Swim over here, haha, let's go back and drink." This group of cavalry laughed at Liang Jun and quickly returned to the city.
Pharmacist Zhu looked at the river and shook his head: "There are no boats, so we can only take a detour to the west."
Xiang Xiaoyu looked at the river and smiled when he saw that the river was only a few dozen feet wide: "Let's build a boat here and we can cross the river early tomorrow morning."
Li Xiaofei and Murong Lingdu looked at Xiang Xiaoyu with strange eyes: "There are no trees around here. We use all the firewood on our chariots. We can't build a few ships in one night. Besides, it's freezing cold."
Yes, it can’t be done without firewood.”
Xiang Xiaoyu pointed to the ice on the shore: "What I want is that it's freezing cold. I don't need wood to build a boat. I just need to dig mud!"
While talking, Xiang Xiaoyu and others dug up the soil from the shore, shaped it into a boat shape, and watered it. Yaoshi Zhu responded quickly: "I understand, the mud boat is frozen tonight, and it will not leak if it is placed in the water.
We can just go over.”
Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling immediately ordered everyone to dig out mud and build boats. By midnight, they had built more than a hundred boats, large and small, and placed them on the shore.
Li Xiaofei looked at the ice marks on the shore during the day and knew that the enemy troops on the opposite side would throw stones every day to break through the ice to prevent Liang Jun from crossing the river. Sure enough, at the fourth watch, stones were thrown into the river from the opposite side every moment.
A stone came by the clock.
The next morning, Li Xiaofei ordered the drums to be beaten and marched, making a gesture of crossing the river on the ice. A few more stones were thrown from the opposite side and fell directly into the river. After that, no more stones came. Seeing that the time had come, Li Xiaofei and
Murong Ling took the lead in pushing the mud boat into the water.
, more than 3,000 Liang Jun followed and pushed more than 100 mud boats into the river. Xiang Xiaoyu was the first to jump on the boat. Everyone saw that although the mud boats had a deep draft, they were floating on the river.
So they all got on the boat, using knives and shields as oars, and in a short time they reached the other side.
When Liang Jun rushed to the foot of Fuyang City, the city gate had not yet been closed. Liang Jun swarmed in. At this time, the Qin army guarding the city was still drinking and having fun. They were stunned when they saw Liang Jun killing them. One party was holding back for a while.
They were about to attack the city, but the other side thought that there was a river blocking it and they were defenseless. There was no suspense about the battle. Soon all the Qin troops were captured, and Li Xiaofei and others were sitting in the government office in the city.
The flag of Liang Jun was put on the city wall, and the big businessmen in the city used carts to reward Liang Jun with wine, meat, cattle and sheep. When Li Xiaofei arrived, he accepted all the orders without hesitation. Xiang Xiaoyu went to the treasury to collect grain and grass as usual.
Murong Ling walked around the city and found that many people were huddled together in shabby clothes and shivering, so he took a few people back to the government office to see Li Xiaofei.
As soon as Li Xiaofei saw these poor people, he asked: "Did you escape into Fuyang from outside? If you are willing to follow me, I can keep you. If not, I will pay you travel expenses and you can go home."
Zhu Yaoshi took a roster from outside and came in. As soon as he entered, the roster fell to the ground. He ran over and held someone's hand: "Vice General Zhao, is it you? Why are you like this?"
These people immediately hugged Pharmacist Zhu again: "Physician, why did you vote for Liang Jun?"
The old friends burst into tears when they met. It turned out that these people were Hu Jian's subordinates. After being defeated by the Black Banner Khanate army that day, they fled back to their hometown of Fuyang together. Unexpectedly, the big businessmen in Fuyang City had already taken these people away.
Their houses and fields were taken over, and their names were removed from the household registration, making several of them untouchables and living on the streets.
Pharmacist Zhu looked at Li Xiaofei, who slapped the table: "The soldiers are fighting hard at the front, but these people are taking things by force. No wonder so many people are rising up! It's really outrageous! When I give the order, we will take down Fuyang City."
All the big businessmen were tied up and taken to the school grounds, and I personally came to interrogate them, but those who seized other people's fields and houses and occupied other people's wives and daughters were beheaded on the spot!"
Zhu Yaoshi and Vice General Zhao knelt down and thanked Li Xiaofei. Vice General Zhao and several others were willing to join Li Xiaofei's command. Li Xiaofei helped several people up, and then thought that there were three or four thousand Qin soldiers captured this time, so he immediately asked Zhu Yaoshi to
The division led Vice General Zhao and others to collect the old troops and arrest the big businessmen in the city. Firstly, it was to prevent Liang Jun from getting a bad reputation. Secondly, it also allowed Zhu Yaoshi and others to vent their anger and establish their prestige. It would be much better to use local people to govern the local area.
In the afternoon, there were hundreds of large-scale businessmen arrested at the school grounds. After interrogation, most of them seized the fields and houses of civilians, and some seized other people's wives and daughters and forced them to die. Li Xiaofei ordered the soldiers to kill him as soon as he threw away the token.
Killed them. Many people kowtowed and begged for mercy, expressing their willingness to give up their family property, but a few held their heads high and sneered: "You are so ignorant of the world. If you enter the city today, you will be driven out of the city tomorrow."
"You bunch of untouchables think that with a bunch of bad guys, you can become king and dominate. I have a relationship with the prime minister of the Southern Dynasty."
"I am an in-law of the Xie family. If you do such nonsense, the Emperor of Liang will not be able to spare you!"
"Are you doing this to protect our noble family?"
"Your General Chen is my uncle's aunt's grandson's nephew, who of you dares to kill me!"
Li Xiaofei and others did not expect that there were some such arrogant people. Xiang Xiaoyu also advised Li Xiaofei not to act out of anger. Li Xiaofei thought for a while and stood up. The people with their heads raised thought they were here to loosen their bonds, so they all laughed.
.
Li Xiaofei walked over and pointed at a group of people in rags on the edge of the school field and said: "You want to survive, and you have high officials to protect you. What about them? They just want to have food to eat and a place to live. If you don't let them live, I will
I won't let you live. I, Li Xiaofei, do things alone and take responsibility for others. I started the army thinking that I would fight for the untouchables so that the poor could have food, clothing, and a house to live in, so that they would not freeze to death and starve to death! I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore.
,kill!"
After the order was given, the crowds on the school grounds were rolling, and the surrendered Qin Army and Liang Army all cheered together. Seeing that it was useless to persuade Xiang Xiaoyu that the matter had come to this point, he told Li Xiaofei that from now on, Li Xiaofei could only win the battle, otherwise once he was defeated, the people in the court were defeated.
The aristocratic family will try their best to kill him
He. Li Xiaofei nodded with deep concentration and pointed at Zhu Yaoshi to Xiaoyu: "I think this man has some abilities. Why don't we let him send people to spread the news about Fuyang's killing of the wealthy family, so that our army can do it in a short time?"
With strong internal strength, we can fight even if we really fight Fan Yang in the future."
After the Fuyang City was purged, Li Xiaofei selected cavalry from the Qin Army and Liang Army. Zhu Yaoshi volunteered to be the deputy general of the cavalry. Li Xiaofei looked at Murong Ling and said, "Brother Zhu's riding skills can't be better than General Murong, right?"
Zhu Yaoshi didn't answer, so he jumped on the horse and stood up. He whipped the horse with his left hand and took out the bow with his right hand. The horse started running on the school field. Zhu Yaoshi suddenly turned to the left and sat down, then turned over and hid in the horse's belly.
The only thing that happened was that he got off the horse and jumped forward. Li Xiaofei praised Zhu Yao endlessly and pestered him.
The teacher wanted to learn. Zhu Yaoshi smiled and agreed: "Actually, I have wanted to teach more people for a long time, but people have been soft-spoken. Now that Mr. Li has given me this opportunity, I will do my best to teach everyone well. But I have a habit. I
If I teach others something, others must also teach me something.”
Li Xiaofei rolled his eyes and remembered the scene of Zhu Yaoshi lying in the mud boat to cross the river: "Yes, yes, I can't learn Brother Zhu's equestrian skills in vain. They say that northerners are good at riding horses and southerners are good at riding boats. I don't have it either."
For other skills, just teach Brother Zhu how to row a boat on the water."
