lazy tang

Chapter 376 Zhuozhou
No matter how unwilling, Yunhao ushered in the first battle of this expedition.In fact, there is nothing to see at all, for a place that starts to be hungry just after the autumn harvest.Food means everything.

In a forest beside the road, a group of men on horseback suddenly rushed out.Not many, about a hundred people.But the people following them can be described as overwhelming.

They are all old soldiers who have been trained by Yunhao's current tactics. To eliminate the enemy on the offensive line is Yunhao's and their military philosophy.The grain truck was quickly besieged, and five thousand crossbows shot at the charging enemies.

The bows and crossbows were fired at the same time, and there was a whistling sound of exhausting wind.Following the whistling sound, the hundred men on horseback turned into hedgehogs.Humans and horses are the same, losing their own body temperature quickly in the cold wind.

The rest is slaughter, and the person on the opposite side has no armor.Even the weapons are big wooden sticks, and the smart ones will use a wooden board as a shield.Such equipment cannot effectively resist the shooting of the five-stone crossbow.Old Yu gave technical guidance to the general who will be in charge, so the five-stone crossbow, which ordinary people can't pull apart, began to appear in large quantities in the army.The solution is simple, a series of gears.

Thin sackcloth cannot stop arrows, and neither can simple broken wooden boards.People are like reaped wheat, falling row after row on the ground.On the way to the charge, the corpses were strewn about, and the empty bellies made these people really want to die.Rather than being starved to death alive, it is better to die happily once.

Go on and on until there is nothing to kill.There were only two people left in front of Yunhao, one old and one young, facing the army of five thousand armed to the teeth.With tears in their eyes, they walked forward step by step.Bare feet were without shoes, and the purple heels could still be seen despite the mud covering them.This is what comes to die, and for them, death is really a relief.

It once again proved that people can howl like a wolf, and the voice is sad and desolate, echoing in the open space beside the woodland.A team of government soldiers walked out of the team, and when they saw the corpse, they stabbed the head with a knife.For them, the human head represents meritorious deeds and future wealth.It doesn't matter whether they were villagers or honest people.As long as you take up arms against the army, they are the enemy.That's right, big wooden sticks are also considered weapons.In many cases, this thing is the standard equipment of the peasant army.

The ox cart dragged an unknown number of people's heads behind it, and Yun Hao didn't allow them to walk in the wind.Wuli Sima personally witnessed these feats, which is effective.Although, Yun Hao thought it was a naked massacre, there was really no martial arts to show off.

When I stayed in a village at night, the village was empty.Not to mention chickens and dogs, not even a single person.At night, the soldiers on patrol caught a few ghostly people.These guys are very special, their eyes actually have a wolf-like luster in the dark.

Without hesitation, Yun Hao ordered people to drag them out and bury them. They didn't need to be killed and buried alive.The government soldiers faithfully carried out Yun Hao's orders, but the pits had to be dug by themselves.These people worked very hard when digging the pit, and they could escape easily without ropes on their bodies.But none of them escaped, let alone thought of resisting.They were sweating profusely, as if they could leave after successful labor reform.

It's even more ridiculous to be kicked into the pit. The veterans are very experienced.Only two hemp ropes were used to tie their thumbs upside down to keep them immobile. These guys actually only now know the purpose of this pit.With his hands bound, he arched upwards like a maggot, trying his best to escape from the big pit he dug with his own hands.

The government soldiers are all veterans who are used to battles, and they may be the most peaceful farmers on weekdays.Some with gray hair can even be called honorable elders.But on the battlefield, they are the most vicious wolves.It is better to expect sows to climb trees than to expect them to be lenient.

As long as there are people who come up the gentle slope, they will pierce the bastard with a spear, and then kick them into the big pit. Yun Hao found that their eyes were cold, like a lifeless robot.

The people on the side of the big pit filled the soil with joy, and some weird guys actually opened their mouths to catch the soil, and they would eat the soil.

"Brother Hao! Don't let it happen!" Li Daoyan looked at the miserable situation in the pit, and he couldn't bear it.After all, he was a dandy in Chang'an City, who was forced in as a deputy general to gain military merits by relying on his father Li Shentong's way.Li Shentong's face could not be refuted, Yun Hao could only pinch his nose to admit it.But I have something to say first, the lieutenant general is not allowed to issue any military orders.In fact, even if he speaks, only his family will listen.Others simply treat it as farting.

"The people here are all dead, but they are the only ones who are not dead. Look, how strong they are when they push up. Tell me, how can they still have so much strength if they haven't eaten?"

"You mean they eat...! Vomit...!" Li Daoyan vomited as soon as he opened his mouth when he thought that there were people eating people in the pit.

"Humans are not beasts, and even beasts don't eat their own kind. So, if this person eats people, he is not even as good as a beast. If such a guy sees one, he has to kill one. If he stays in the world, that is Disaster." Yun Hao left after finishing speaking, he couldn't stand the scene of burying people alive.

The army didn't have a place to repair until it reached Zhuozhou.Luo Yi personally took people ten miles out of the city to meet him, but he didn't expect the little brat back then.Now he has become the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, which makes Luo Yi sigh.When I joined Datang, besides being given the surname Li, I only had the title of Lord Yan.Compared with the great officials in frontiers of the past, the King of Beiping, who had a lot of tea, he was abruptly inferior.

"Yun Hao pays respects to Duke Yan!" Seeing Luo Yi, Yun Hao immediately got out of the carriage and bowed to salute.This is on a formal occasion and can only be called an official taboo.If we meet in private, Yun Hao should be called Luo Yi Luo Uncle.

Luo Yi is really old, when we met for the first time.There are white hairs, but not too much.But at this meeting, Luo Yi's head was almost covered with white hair.

In the past few years, the situation in Hebei has been changing. Liu Wuzhou is making troubles, and Dou Jiande is also making troubles.Wang Shichong came from the south and occupied Henan, as well as the powerful Wagang rebels.Luo Yi was overwhelmed with each one!

But these guys were all beaten to ashes by Li Tang's army in the end.Facts have proved that Li Tang is the family leader who has the last laugh in this transformation.Now Luo Yi is very glad that he took refuge in Li Tang. If he took refuge in Dou Jiande, he might not even be able to keep a place like Zhuozhou.

Troops passing through the city are not allowed to enter, but Luo Yi thoughtfully prepared a military camp for Yunhao.The so-called military camp turned out to be a small town on the edge of Zhuozhou. Although it was not big, thousands of people could barely live there.Dou Jiande's rebellious army completely abandoned many villages, and the madness of the rebellious army even discouraged a hero like Luo Yi.He could only stay in the city of Zhuozhou and watch the rebel army ravage the countryside.

"Hebei is exhausted, so I can only find a place like this for you." Luo Yi stood in Yunhao's camp, and looked up at the sky above his head.

"What did Uncle Rob say? It would be nice to have a place to shelter in the event of military disasters in Hebei. Fortunately, it's not winter yet, and it can barely survive the winter after repairing it. It's just that the firewood and charcoal of the army need to be helped by Uncle. The big winter Without firewood and charcoal, the army will probably collapse without fighting.” Now that there are nearly 20 days before winter, Yun Hao believes that these houses can still be rescued.

"The charcoal is not a problem. The charcoal you mentioned in your letter is available in Zhuozhou, and people have already got it. If you lack that thing in winter, just come to Uncle. Don't call him Uncle Luo in the future. His Majesty has a will. Give the surname Guo Surname, from now on I will be called Uncle Li!"

It is a curse word for people to change their surnames in later generations, but this year has become an honor.Fortunately, Yun Hao was the only seedling in the Yun family. If Li Yuan asked Yun Hao to change his surname, Yun Hao would resist the order if he killed him.

"Go in, the food is a bit light. If you have something to pick your tongue, see if this meal suits your kid." Luo Yi is very polite to Yun Hao, and now everyone in Datang knows.Yun Hao is the number one favorite minister outside of the royal family, and he is the only one in the Tang Dynasty who dares to beat up the prince.And there is no consequence after the beating, which makes people look sideways.

After entering a slightly decent house, the facilities are complete.The house looks like it has been renovated, but it is a bit small.Yun Hao and his entourage of 30 people stuffed in, and it was filled to the brim immediately.To say it is shabby is indeed a bit shabby.

The place is shabby, but the food is really full of water and land.Zhuozhou is inconvenient to the sea, but it is much closer than Chang'an Luoyang.The prawns with thick arms of babies are only suitable for prawns produced in Bohai Bay.The reason why it is called a prawn is after this thing grows up.Two is a pound of weight!

Two pointed crabs, my goodness, isn't this the legendary flying crab?In later generations, this thing will sell for more than 100 pieces, and at least [-] for such a big one.

As for the wild pork on the mountain, it is a whole roasted big pheasant.The huge roasted whole lamb was as big as a donkey, and Yunhao doubted that it had horse genes.Is this a fucking sheep?

This is a standard delicacies from mountains and seas, Yun Hao is sure that Li Yuan's palace banquet may not have such good food.That is, the wine is the Yun family's steamed wine, which is purely a product of failed alcohol extraction.As for the things he owns, Yun Hao still knows a lot about them.However, if this thing is transported to Hebei or Turkic, it will be regarded as a valuable item.Not an aristocrat, don't even try to taste a sip.

Yunhao felt that these jars of Yunjia steamed wine were definitely worth a thousand gold.

"Uncle Li, I know you like my family's fine wine. I didn't say anything, this time I brought some aged wine over here. You can try it!" Yun Hao didn't want to drink the wine in the jar. He had always heard that drinking fake wine would cause blindness.Yun Hao felt that the things produced in his home were almost equivalent to blending fake wine.

"Haha, the wine in your house is a rare good thing. I remember the last time your boy brought some from Jinyang to the old man. The wine bought was more violent than full-bodied. What a pity! Years of wars have led to the severance of trade routes. Some I haven't had any wine from your house for several years, so hurry up and bring it up, I'm so hungry." There is no general who is not fond of wine, and Luo Yi heard that Yun Hao brought good wine, so he couldn't bear it.

"Originally, among these drinks, there was a car full of Uncle Li. The meeting just now was on business, so I didn't mention it."

"You are a sensible boy. Your elder brother is taken care of by you in Chang'an, so I feel relieved. Speaking of which, those children back then. You are the youngest, and you are still a baby. Who would have thought that today you have the highest title. "

"What did Uncle Li say? The boy was young back then. In fact, the boy has always regarded Uncle Qin as an elder, but he was afraid that you would be called old. If you are based on seniority, you should be called Grandpa Li."

"Hahaha! That's a good point! Everyone has their own opinions. I'm really not used to calling you old man and grandpa. After all, it's your elder brother who is older than you. He didn't even have a son. I heard that You kid already has a son. It’s okay, you brothers can talk more about your experience, so that your elder brother can quickly give birth to a son, so that this old man can also enjoy the blessing of Cheng Huan’s knee.”

Luo Cheng has not given birth to a boy and a half girl in these years, which has always been Luo Yi's heart disease.But Luo Cheng has been outside all these years, and Luo Yi couldn't find anyone even if he wanted to nag.

This old bastard is crazy about his grandson, so he has nothing to talk about his experience.Don't tell me you old man want me to hold some kind of naked meeting like Li Yuan and Pei Ji?The old rascal's mind was really hard to figure out no matter how hard he tried.

Yun Hao brought people to the table, and Luo Yi introduced Yun Hao to his subordinates one by one.They are all old acquaintances, and they have met almost all of them in Beiping Mansion back then.There are a few new faces, all of whom have heard of the names but have never seen anyone.For example Zhang Jian!
When he heard that Yun Hao's deputy general was Li Daoyan, the eldest son of Li Shentong, Luo Yi stood up and accepted Li Daoyan's salute.For a lieutenant general, this is considered a courtesy.

Li Daoyan was also polite, and saluted without saying a word.If someone is willing to stand up, it is to save face for his father.Li Shentong is really supernatural in today's Tang Dynasty.There are many younger brothers in Li Yuan's clan, but this one is the most respected one.There are many Tang princes, but most of them are county princes.Only Li Yuan's two sons were crowned princes, and only one of his younger brothers was crowned prince.It can be seen that Li Yuan trusts this younger brother.

"My nephew has heard about Duke Yan's name for a long time. My father often said that Duke Yan was a real hero when he ran across the land of Yanzhao with a spear. Thinking about it, my nephew feels excited. It is a great honor to see Duke Yan today. .If you can get some advice from Lord Yan, my little nephew will never benefit from it in this life!"

Yun Hao's mouth was opened into an O shape. Who didn't know that Young Master Li was the most famous playboy in Chang'an.The master with eyes on the top of his head, it's not bad that he doesn't need to stare at you when he sees ordinary people.But I didn't expect that this guy is very good at flattering.With just these two sentences, Luo Yi over there has already started to play tricks, and it seems that he has great plans to accept apprentices.
