Chapter 600 Chapter 600: Ping Sibao County (2) [Seeking a monthly ticket]
Sibao County and Shen Tang's team are indeed destined.
The former governor of Sibao County, Yancheng, was Qishan's mortal enemy. In the end, Shen Tang stomped his brains to pieces and ruined his life. Now this sheriff has provoked Shen Tang again, and with Shen Tang's personality of keeping grudges and protecting weaknesses, Qiu Cheng is destined to die hard.
Chu Yao wasted five years here.
Kang Shi came here to join in the fun and met Shen Tang.
Shen Tang is here to rob Gu Chi, a civilian man.
Gong Shuwu's relatives were dispatched here, and died with the attack of Xiaocheng, and he became a loner.
Tu Rong's grandparents were buried here...
For everyone, the land of Sibao County carries too many unpleasant memories. What's even more ironic is that Xiaocheng fought to the death to defend the city, but now he is issuing a call to attack the city... I have to say that fate knows black humor.
Shen Tang took another sip of hot soy milk.
sighed: "Sibao County is also unlucky..."
Sibao County has four other counties besides Xiaocheng, the governing place. During the Taiping period, this place was famous for its abundant four kinds of treasures, convenient transportation, and the people under the rule had ample food and clothing. It can be regarded as among the border counties, the small life is relatively beautiful.
It’s just that it was transported back, and it’s hard to drink water. Located between the Geng and Xin kingdoms, Sibao County is full of ups and downs...
First, Zheng Qiao's soldiers and horses broke through, and before he could catch his breath, Yancheng, who is good at sycophancy and unkind officials, will do everything possible to search for the people's fat and anointment, and he has been turned into a fireworks alley. Fengyue trading is popular, and population sales are rampant.
After that, King Zhu led his troops to besiege and massacre the city, and the population in the city decreased again and again. Yan Cheng's successors had no skills, and Qiu Cheng would be executed without any suspense. Perhaps because of the "bottom rebound", when Qiu Cheng took office, the lives of the common people were not so sad.
Finally he was able to catch his breath.
This year we caught up with the drought again, and the grain harvest failed.
Common people today, to live is to experience disasters.
Shen Tang felt emotional in her heart, seeing Gu Chi winking at herself, she could only pull back Piaoyuan's thoughts, and looked at Chu Yao: "The one who is most familiar with Sibao County among us is Wuhui. Look, where did this battle start first?"
Add one more sentence.
"In this battle, we can only win and not lose!"
She was determined to unscrew Qiu Wenyan's head and kick it like a ball. Don't be cruel, I really thought she was a bad guy who only knows how to farm!
"Although Yao has good looks, he doesn't dare to specialize in it." Chu Yao came out and cupped his hands, saying, "Yao wants to recommend someone."
He has stayed in Xiaocheng for many years, but due to his status and situation back then, he lacked information. He is only a little more familiar with Sibao County than everyone else. If it is to be used on the battlefield, this "understanding" is probably not enough, and there are people around them who can solve this problem.
Shen Tang asked: "Who is it?"
Chu Yao: "Former Lieutenant of the garrison of Sibao County, Duke Yang."
Shen Tang almost didn't remember who this was.
"This person...uh, it is indeed possible."
To a certain extent, Yang Gong can be called the military map of Sibao County. As the top leader who once commanded thousands of elite garrisons in Sibao County, where the defense is weak, where it is easy to attack, and where it can be ambushed...
He knows it all.
Some topographical maps, garrison locations, and military divisions are secrets to the outside world, and they are never easily leaked. Outsiders who want to spy on them may be at risk of being arrested, but these are within easy reach of Yang Gong. There is no difficulty.
"Then where is he now?"
In the early days of entrepreneurship, when the military personnel were in short supply, Mr. Yang also helped to take care of a lot of military training work, scraping together, and barely pulling together the draft team. Later, when he entered Longwu County and received military support from Chu Jie, he was finally not so embarrassed.
But this year, I seldom heard from him again.
Chu Yao: "I am still in charge of entering and exiting the salt storage."
In the past two years, the private salt trade in Longwu County has become the biggest income of the government. Yantian District and Yanjing District continuously produce a large amount of high-quality refined salt every day. Not only did Shen Tang repay the huge loan owed by Xun Zhen, but he also saved a small amount of war budget for the future. The government also has the money to invest more in other infrastructure. Having tasted the sweetness, he naturally knows how lucrative the private salt business is.
The person in charge of the salt depot was chosen with great care.
With a slap on the head, Shen Tang chose Yang Gong.
First, he is a loner with no relatives and favors; second, his character is not capable of pocketing his own pockets, he is strict, serious in doing things, and has a violent temper that dares to spray anyone he sees; A part of the middle class is either his former trilogy, or the soldiers brought out by him, and the output of the salt warehouse is equivalent to the military salary of these people...
How could Duke Yang be willing to let these soldiers go hungry?
Shen Tang said: "Okay, quickly send someone to invite him here."
There is a ready-made military map, and it is saved to send scouts to lurk in Sibao County to find out the bottom line, and the troops can be pulled out after rectifying the troops.
Mr. Yang was still in a daze when he was invited over.
I don't know why Shen Tang is looking for him.
"Meet Shen Jun."
He has lived a leisurely retirement life in the past few years. The injuries caused by the First Battle of Xiaocheng, except for the irreparable destruction of Wudandan Mansion, the others have been healed early. The spirit looks good, and the appearance is getting younger and younger, and the brilliance is restrained. At first glance, I thought it was some wealthy and idle person. Only those with sharp eyes can see that he has not dissipated his evil spirit. This is a ruthless character!
Shen Tang got straight to the point, and said bluntly: "It is a business to invite you here today. A while ago, Qiu Cheng of Sibao County sent troops to attack Nanyu County, ransacked the local grain depot, and killed many common people. It will make the world laugh."
Don't mention the rest, Yang Gong knows what it is.
He just hesitated for a moment.
Clasped fists: "I would like to do the work of a dog and a horse for Shen Jun."
He had conflicts with Shen Tang.
But that's all in the past.
Now the world has changed, and I have been sheltered by Shen Tang for several years, so no wind and rain can blow on him. Out of emotion and reason, if the other party speaks, he should help. Yang Gong actively cooperated, which completely relieved Shen Tang's hanging heart, and asked him to sit down.
The map of the council hall has been changed to Sibao County.
Shen Tang saw that Yang Gong's gaze was always on the map, and asked with a smile: "But what's wrong with this map?"
Although the map looks crude, it is already the result of spending money and people, and Yang Gong saw many problems when he came.
"There are indeed some problems."
Gong Yang can not only point it out, but also detail the direction of some mountains and rivers, and even clearly mark the points where there may be garrisons. Although the county guards are different, the locations of the military fortresses in the county are all determined and established after repeated deliberation, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, and will not be easily changed. I dare not say that the information provided by Yang Gong is 100% correct, but it can be 90% correct.
The more Shen Tang looked, the brighter his eyes became.
In the war of this era, whoever controls the initiative of information first will have half the chance of winning the battle.
(ノへ￣、)
Goodbye November, hello December.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement this month.
There will be a tough battle in December, and Shiitake will work hard to win!
