Xie Yu suddenly thought to himself, according to netizens: "This powerful man is not talking about his current father, Chengyang Hou Lingyi!"
Naturally, he couldn't say that, but he just said: "I believe the Major General will be able to detect those moths and moles."
After receiving the military order, he paid homage to Yu Fake Army Marquis. In addition to leading the 20 Lin troops under his command, he also went to the Longshou original forbidden army camp outside the city and ordered 200 forbidden soldiers.
At this time, Xie Yu understood that although the Yulin army was small in number, it was not only guarding the palace, but also serving as a reserve officer.
There was a little interlude in the middle. I went to Longshouyuan Forbidden Army Camp to recruit troops. As expected, the weather turned cold, or I thought that the troops surrendered to the bandits were not doing much.
Many of the guards had no intention of fighting.
Fortunately, Emperor Wen took over the country not long ago, and his military spirit has not dissipated, and there are many people who are eager to make contributions.
In addition, Xie Yudian's army was not large in number, so the troop deployment went smoothly.
Then open the arsenal and collect available weapons.
How can I put it this way? This capital is worthy of being a dynasty Kyoto, with a superior arsenal.
Xie Yu also armed himself well in the name of going on an expedition.
Although the craftsmen who produce weapons in the imperial court now supervise the production of weapons, they try to be as close to a standard as possible in order to achieve uniformity in battle performance.
But after all, this is the feudal handicraft era, and the production of weapons naturally has upper and lower limits.
Xie Yu entered the arsenal, although he could not enter the inner treasury due to military orders.
But there was no shortage of high-quality products in the outer treasury, so Xie Yu immediately changed his clothes.
And he already had a plan in his mind. After returning from this expedition, except for the military armor, which was handed over, everything else was reported as damaged and used for his own use.
For example, a new good bow, although the original bow strength is only one stone and seven fights, a special metal alloy should be "unintentionally" added to the bow body.
Let Xie Yu make some adjustments, and get a suitable bow string in Rubong. The bow power can be increased to three stones. Xie Yu thinks there will be no problem.
It can be said that I picked one omission. There are other omissions as well, but without this bow, Xie Yu pays more attention to it.
Since then, Xie Yu's old worn-out bow, which had cost not three but five hundred lives, can be retired.
Going out to capture the bandits, this small team of about two hundred people was too inconspicuous. That is, Major General Ling Buyi came to see him off.
Then he went on a low-key expedition.
In general, the imperial court was not stingy with weapons, but when Xie Yu wanted more war horses, the imperial court was very stingy and only approved twenty horses.
Xie Yu was very disappointed. Even if he asked Major General Ling Buyi to make peace, he only added five more horses. This was just for the sake of Major General Ling Buyi's face.
But when these war horses were obtained, Xie Yu was even more depressed. What war horses?
Most of them were pack horses, so Xie Yu could only bring his three horses that were fostered at the Major General's Mansion in Longxi.
I could barely raise enough cavalry, eight cavalry.
This was far different from Xie Yu's expectations. He thought that this time the bandit surrender was the first time Xie Yu received military orders to go on an independent expedition, or that there was also a test for him by Major General Ling Buyi.
Xie Yu took back the gold cake from the Major General's Mansion and wanted to buy a big house in the capital.
I ordered a lot of light sidecars, baggage carts, pack horses, and mules and donkeys purchased by Qiren in the mule market.
At least it can carry more supplies, and it can be considered a mobile infantry.
No matter what, it's faster than letting the sergeants rush on foot!
Since he was not taken seriously, Xie Yu decided to perform better.
Generally speaking, when an ancient feudal army was deployed, in addition to sufficient money and food, it was necessary to ensure complete military operations for the purpose of combat, and it was also necessary to recruit two to three times the number of civilians to accompany the army.
The civilians were responsible for filling in the moat during the siege, consuming enemy arrows and other defensive supplies.
It also provides logistical support for combat soldiers, allowing them to recharge their batteries and focus on fighting.
Of course, it is an exaggeration. Sometimes civilians have to replace the role of military rations, but this is only a special situation.
However, Xie Yu's army has too few heads, and it can be considered an inside battle.
In terms of food and grass, only a small amount of supplies are needed at stations along the way.
As for the civilians, the military order considered that at least the road was smooth and smooth, so no requirements were made at first.
When they arrived at the border of Yanzhou, Yanzhou was asked to send a certain number of state soldiers and civilians to cooperate with Xie Yu and the others.
Xie Yu had just entered the capital a few days ago, and the situation was still unclear, so he could only follow orders first.
With the help of donkeys and mules carrying carts, the team of 200 people arrived in Yanzhou in just three days.
After submitting the military order document to the governor's office, the governor's office paid little attention to the bandit army coming from the capital and only sent a clerk to coordinate.
According to the military order, it is also necessary to write "state soldiers".
But only two hundred civilians were given to him. When his subordinate Sergeant Yu Lin saw that he was so slighted, he immediately had the urge to fall out, but Xie Yu quickly stopped him.
Because Xie Yu understood that this was not the scribe's mistake.
Moreover, it was obvious that the clerk was really afraid that these soldiers from the capital would fall out, so when he received the order to coordinate the military, he was afraid that he would be in trouble for a while, so he tried his best to choose mature civilian men for Xie Yu and others.
Xie Yu saw all this, so naturally he wouldn't make things difficult for him.
For these Habayashi sergeants, they may have seen too many high-ranking officials in Miyagi, just like the money counters of big banks, but they don't know that county magistrates are not as good as current managers.
What's more, we are now in Yanzhou, their territory.
I heard that the governor of Yanzhou was a descendant of the Cui family of Qinghe, a noble family in Hebei. The Cui family of Qinghe was a family with four surnames and five hopes.
It does not mean that if you want to marry, you should marry a girl with the five surnames. One of the five surnames is Cui.
It's just that I don't know whether Yanzhou Cui Shijun despises him or if someone is obstructing him.
The situation is unclear, but the main focus is still on immobility.
Xie Yu told the clerk that he wanted to purchase mules and donkeys to lead carts in this city to travel.
Seeing that he could avoid being beaten, the clerk naturally put in some effort and saved Xie Yu a lot of money.
I skipped this matter and spent a day repairing in Yanzhou City.
The convoy continued to set off, and then passed through some counties. The officials also dispatched civilians to support Xie Yu in catching the bandits.
The team expanded to six hundred people.
It didn't take more than one day, but it finally came to Xie Yu's mind to plan to temporarily surrender the bandit garrison camp and clear the county seat.
As for why we chose this place, on the one hand, it is the only way to communicate between Shu and the capital.
Second, the area between the Qing county and the Shu region began to become high and densely forested because the remaining mountains were gone.
According to the information report, most of the incidents of robbing pedestrians and intercepting caravans occurred on this section of the road.
It is rumored that there are over a hundred bandit villages, large and small, on this road, among them there are deserters from the previous dynasty, fugitives who killed and destroyed their families, frustrated Jianghu people, and descendants of careerists who failed in the rebellion.
When they arrived at Qing County, Magistrate Cheng Cheng led the prominent figures in the county to go out of the city to greet him, which finally gave the sergeants some sense of importance.
Xie Yu was also happy. With the help of the local gentry and other local snakes, they cooperated in suppressing the bandits. From the intelligence point of view, half of the victory was won.
Regarding this, Xie Yu knew that he should be more cautious.
County Magistrate Cheng Lao: "Thank you, Marquis Jun. The people of this county hope that the imperial court will suppress the bandits, as bright as the stars and the moon."
Xie Yu suddenly thought of his current identity as a fake soldier, and said politely: "Mr. Cheng, you are too polite. In the eyes of this army, this army is like a fish, and the people are like water. How can a fish survive without water?"
