The white porridge and pickled mustard is enough, why am I wearing a royal robe?

Chapter 129 Dealing with each other
The other party is going according to Liu Zhenhua's idea and advancing towards Yanchuan.

Liu Zhenhua's team began to turn around at Yanshui Pass. He did not divide his troops into two groups and encircle them on all sides as Hong Chengchou imagined.

Instead, he went straight to Yanchuan.

In Liu Zhenhua's consideration, no matter where the opponent is supporting or attacking, they must stay away from Yan'an.

Extension is an inevitable part of it.

At that time, Yang Lichao's team left the city and entangled Yang He's team.

Liu Zhenhua will have enough time to bring these militiamen to support, and after gathering together, they can directly flank the enemy.

Most of the heavenly troops are being extended. Liu Zhenhua is not worried that Yang Lichao will not be able to support the opponent. Liu Zhenhua even feels that Yang Lichao's troops can defeat the opponent's 5000 to [-] men.

"Am I underestimating the imperial court a little too much?"

Liu Zhenhua was riding on a horse. From the last battle to defend the city, he could see that the opponent's combat effectiveness and equipment were average.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that the armor rate of his team is not high. Except for the more than 20 soft armors and a pair of heavy armors that Liu Zhenhua exchanged with his reputation, almost all the armors of other soldiers were captured.

Liu Zhenhua's biggest advantage may be weapons, whether it is the cheapest steel gun or the fierce Mo Dao.

For those soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, although it is not a dimensionality reduction attack, at least it has a huge advantage.

The reconnaissance team led by Zhang Heizi wandered around Yanchuan County and Yanchang County.

They were constantly exploring the movements of the soldiers in the direction of Yan'an.

Even at night, they still kept observing. After all, it would be a great achievement to get additional information.

The huge team stationed between Yanchang County and Yan'an County during the day was stationed again after marching twenty miles. This was another piece of news.

Zhang Heizi sent a message to Yanchang and prepared to rush to Yanchuan.

ancient.News dissemination is not well developed, so the only way to deliver news is by chasing.

Often, as soon as the news here arrives, there will be new news later, and the previous news will occasionally be invalidated.

At night, Zhang Heizi and others were kneeling on high ground, staring at the army stationed in the distance.

It was not until midnight, when the observers were all a little sleepy, that the army finally made some movement, some quickly left the army and headed south, and some headed north.

"What are you going to do?" Zhang Heizi immediately mounted his horse. Although he didn't know what the two teams were going to do, there must be something big going on out quietly like this in the middle of the night.

He felt that this matter was very important, so he rushed directly towards Yanchuan and asked his soldiers to carry the news to extend it.

Fortunately, the Kitchen God has conjured up many horses in recent days, otherwise it would be much more difficult for them to deliver the message now.

This place is only less than thirty miles away from Yanchang County, and the news reached Yang Lichao's ears before dawn.

He called all the Heavenly Soldier officials in Yanchang over to discuss the matter together.

Yang Lichao repeated the news he received, then looked at everyone present and asked, "What do you think of this news?"

Everyone looked at each other and frowned, then went south and north, and they went in the middle of the night, carrying people on their backs.

"There must be some conspiracy," Wang Long said.

The corners of Yang Lichao's eyes twitched. This is not nonsense. There must be some conspiracy to go out in such a strange way in the middle of the night.

"Could it be that we want to convey the news of the advance to other places," Wang Jiachang said.

"That shouldn't be the case. If we simply pass on the news, there's no need to go out in the middle of the night."

Yang Lichao shook his head and rejected the idea.

"Could it be that they are moving in for reinforcements?"

Wang Wu said suddenly.

What he said made the surrounding Heavenly Soldier officials look at him.

"Move reinforcements," Yang Lichao repeated, and then nodded in agreement.

"This is more reasonable. The other party may really be mobilizing troops and horses," Yang Lichao looked at everyone, "the other party may have known that the Kitchen King wanted to drag them to a place far away from Yan'an to fight."

"Knew we were going to haunt them."

Yang Lichao said.

He didn't know the other party, he thought Liu Zhenhua was going to attack them from all sides.

But the final general direction is the same.

They all have to fight a war far away from Yan'an.

"What should we do? The other party already has more people than us, and now they have to move reinforcements. If the time comes, our pressure will increase exponentially. If we don't wait until the Kitchen King comes, wouldn't we be sinners? ."

Wang Jiachang said with some worry.

Their role is to hold the enemy here and keep them bitten until Liu Zhenhua arrives.

At present, the enemy already has five or six thousand people, and they only have nearly 4000 people. If the other party is summoning some troops, can they really hold out until Liu Zhenhua dares to come. "The most important thing is that we not only have to hold on until the Kitchen King arrives, but we also have to ensure that we have a lot of force to counterattack." Wang Jiachang realized this. They not only held back, but also cooperated with Liu Zhenhua to counterattack and destroy the enemy.

This also means that they cannot die too many people before Liu Zhenhua comes.

"Otherwise, recruit some local braves."

Wang Wu said that he used to be a patrol inspector and was most familiar with recruiting local warriors.

When you are in doubt, recruit local braves.

"The Stove King did not give any instructions in this regard," Yang Lichao frowned. Recruiting village braves meant owing the villagers something, either money or grain.

These are additional expenses.

If the Kitchen King waved his hand again, he would let it go, but they would not be able to decide such a big matter.

Wang Wu looked at Yang Lichao and said, "Captain Yang, why are we waiting for instructions from the Kitchen King at this time? The Kitchen King must support us in making such a decision. When we were defending the city, didn't the Kitchen King say that if there is insufficient manpower, we would recruit villagers?" Brave."

"It's the same as the current situation."

Wang Wu tried to persuade him, why didn’t Captain Yang know how to adapt?

When Yang Lichao heard this, he understood. It was indeed the case. Liu Zhenhua always encouraged them to perform micro-manipulation without deviating from the main mission when completing the mission.

Just like Wang Jiachang's at the beginning and then wait.

"Okay, let's raise one thousand or fifteen hundred village warriors."

"It is tentatively decided to give each of the people eight measures of food."

Yang Lichao made a decision, and the people of Yanchang County were fully enthusiastic about helping the Kitchen King.

It must be easy to raise [-] Xiangyong, but I don’t know how to reward the people.

They cannot promise all rural heroes to become militiamen after the war like they did in Yanchuan. They do not have such great rights.

"Eight buckets of grain."

Everyone looked at each other. They all participated in the last battle to defend the city. In that battle, all the country warriors became militiamen.

"How about if you kill one person, you can become a militia."

Wang Wu gave a suggestion.

Other officials nodded, thinking that this was feasible, after all, the heavenly soldiers had only killed three people.

Although many militiamen are stuck with one or two people.

But such a reward is definitely much better than eight buckets of food for the people of Yanchang County.

"Just do it."

Yang Lichao made the decision and adopted Wang Wu's suggestion.

On the second day, the entire Yanchang County became lively, but they still underestimated the enthusiasm of the people.

After learning that the Kitchen King wanted to recruit village braves, and that the village braves could become militiamen by killing an enemy, the people flocked to the village.

In almost half a morning, 500 people were recruited.

You must know that there are only two thousand young people of appropriate age in the entire Yanchang County.

Almost everyone of the right age came, except for a few lazy people who were messing around.

However, Yang Lichao did not increase the quota, so he chose [-].

Outside the city, Yang He's army continued to move forward. They were so arrogant that they were not prepared to go too far away. It seemed that they were passing outside Yanchang County and detouring to Yanchuan.

I'm just telling you, I'm going to worm my way into your trap. Is there any way to let me out?

Such a confident look convinced Yang Lichao that the other party was definitely mobilizing manpower to send more troops.

Otherwise, why would he be so arrogant?

Liu Zhenhua, who was stationed in Yanshuichuan, finally received the news from Zhang Heizi. After driving for five to six hundred miles in one day and two nights, Zhang Heizi, including his men and horses, was exhausted.

Liu Zhenhua also realized that the other party was probably dispatching troops to other places.

He knew that it would be difficult to defeat him with only those 6000 or [-] troops.

Liu Zhenhua was not surprised. After all, the person sent by the other party was a trilateral governor, and the people in Ningxia and Shaanxi were at his disposal.

Liu Zhenhua looked around with a smile on his face.

"Ren Zhuoyue's publicity these days has not been in vain."
