Chapter 31 Set up camp

Nanjing County.

Yang Xian rode on a horse and passed along the way, which showed the damage caused by the Yi soldiers' crossing.

The broken houses, trampled fields, burning whistles, foul-stenched corpses, all the elements gathered into a tragic portrait.

Walking on the path in the forest, you can vaguely see the low walls of the city walls in the distance.

"Lord, the front is the county town of Nanjing County, Yongchang!"

Yang An glared at his legs, walked forward a few steps, and came to Yang Xian's side, but saw Yang Xian's pale face.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, a little dizzy!"

Yang Xian really didn't expect that not only did he not have the talent for riding a horse, but he also did not have the skill list in the reflection of the starry sky.

Among Yang Chun's four adopted sons, only Yang An and Yang Gui followed Yang Xian. However, they looked at them, but they were a little worried.

When you first enter the military, you may feel dissipated. However, it is rare to be as serious as Yang Xian. If it cannot be changed, let me ask you, Yang Xian will have to lead the army to fight in the future and will not be able to ride a horse. How to fight?

"Wang Ding, the governor of the South Ridge, paid a visit to the Prime Minister!"

Yongchang is not a small city in the southwest of Yizhou, but it is more than apart from cities like String City.

The city wall, which is 16 feet high, is completely made of earth, and the city gate tower looks very simple. The whole city is composed of only one exterior wall, and two doors are opened.

Now, the county magistrate and a group of Shu officials are welcomed by Yang Xian and 10,000 troops from Yizhou. Nanji County is on the border, and the county troop has not been lifted yet, but for the Yi army, the number is still too small.

The arrival of this new force brought hope to the people of Nanjing County.

"vomit......"

Yang Xian got off the horse and felt an uncontrollable wave surging in his belly. Even last night's supper rushed to the bottom of the city wall.

"Prime Minister! Prime Minister!"

A group of officials from Yizhou immediately met, but were stopped by Yang Xian.

"I'm fine... uh... let's go back to the county government first, and you tell me all the... uh... situation..."

“…”

County governor's office.

"Prime Minister, since the invasion of the Nanguan, the three counties have been in ruins and tens of thousands of people have been displaced. The officials are trying hard to support them, but they are still in a difficult position."

After taking a sip of tea, Yang Xian felt that his empty body had improved a lot. Listening to Wang Ding's report, he asked: "How many county soldiers are there in the county? How much food is there? How many refugees are there?"

"There are still 8,000 county soldiers, and the total number of local county soldiers is 25,000. The refugees in the county city are almost 30,000. There are not many grains in the county treasury, and they can barely last for two months. Prime Minister, there are still three counties under the control of the Yi army. Should we recover the lost territory first?"

Wang Ding asked. The so-called local county soldiers are just soldiers who spontaneously form soldiers to defend their homes, and their combat effectiveness is very low. However, county soldiers are different. They are of high-level combat effectiveness in the battle sequence of Yizhou. They can form formations, and even have received inheritance and cultivation from the army lineage, and can use some low-level combat skills. Now that Samoko has almost taken the robbery, the main force has been pushed outside Nanjing County, and with the 10,000 Chang Ce Army brought by Yang Xian, it can easily recover lost territory.

Yang Xian shook his head. For him, regaining lost land is not important, the most important thing is to gain positive emotions.

Nowadays, there are refugees from those three counties in all parts of Nanxi County. If you don’t care, it will not only consume a lot of food and grass, but will also cause chaos over time.

"The most urgent task is to restore production first! Those three counties don't need to worry for the time being."

Positive emotions from Wang Ding166

Wang Ding thought that Yang Xian would be very happy when he was successful, but he did not expect that this young prime minister would understand the overall situation so well.

"Prime Minister benevolent!"

Yang Xian snapped his fingers, and Yang An took out the map and flipped it on the table.

"Where are Huaishan in the east and west of Yongchang, Lishui flows through it, and the terrain in the south is relatively open. I am going to set up a Dazhai here and station 5,000 troops."

The place Yang Xian refers to is open and close to Lishui, and there is also a large forest land around it.

"In addition, I will set up eighteen camps outside the Dazhai to control the nearby dangerous passes and important passages, and think that the barriers in the south of Yongchang are underway. Wang Junshou, you can take advantage of this period to speed up the resettlement of refugees, fish, hunt and farm. You can also plant wasteland as soon as possible. How much can you plant?"

"I am grateful to the Prime Minister for the behalf of the people of Yongchang County!"

If you can restore order to the damaged town, you will inevitably gain positive emotions. Yang Xian thought about it and felt that it was not enough.

"In addition, help me find a few alchemy furnaces!"

"Alchemy furnace?"

The officials of the Yongchang County Government looked at each other, but they didn't know what the prime minister wanted to do?

night.

After a busy day, he stationed his soldiers outside the city. Yang An rushed back to the county magistrate's mansion from outside the city, intending to see how much Yang Xian's horse fainting has relieved?

The lights in the room were bright, and Yang Xian was sitting on the couch, his face was much better. It was not like the paleness of the day, but it looked a little rosy.

A medicine bowl was placed next to the couch. The kite that had disappeared for a few days and was tamed by Yang Xian appeared in the room again. She stood next to the medicine bowl, looking around, as if waiting.

Yang Xian took out a small silk stick from the bamboo tube of the loin legs, looked at the contents on it, and his face was a little serious.

"Mr. Chun sent information and finally found out who is the driving force behind the scenes?"

"Who is it?"

"Wei Wen, the chief clerk in Huanwu's mansion! A few days ago, he went to Dongyang Sect and Netherworld Prison respectively, hoping to mediate the grudges between the two factions. Unfortunately, he failed in the end!"

"Lord, this Wei Wen is Huan Wu's confidant. Since we know that he is taking action behind the scenes, should we solve him first? In the future, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains will inevitably lead to a lot of resistance."

Yang Xian shook his head and said, "Mr. Chun is recruiting soldiers in Xiancheng at this moment, and almost all the veterans in our mansion are by my side. Wei Wen is protected by the Li family, and he is alone, Huan Wu will definitely send masters to protect him. It is not easy for us to solve him."

After all, Yang Xian is not in the world at this moment, and it can even be said to be weak. Otherwise, as long as Wei Wen is killed, it will be like a broken Huanwu arm.

Yang Xian took a piece of paper and wrote down the situation here on it.

"What Yizhou needs in the end is to recruit soldiers from Changce for training! For the rest, we will consider it after we return to the army."

Yang Xian stuffed the paper into the bamboo tube, sealed it, waved his hand, and the kite flapped its wings and flew out of the house.

"Watching this Wei Wen is here to stir up the wind and rain, we have no choice but to do anything. It's really annoying."
