Leave the tent.
Wang Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and his face showed joy.
I didn't expect that meeting Ran Liang would go so smoothly this time. Maybe it was because he was in a good mood and agreed to all his requests.
According to the decision made after discussing with Shen Yi before leaving, Wang Jing used the reason that although Donghu Village had a great victory, it suffered a lot of losses, and the North Village was also burned down.
Ask Ran Liang to mobilize hundreds more refugees to supplement the three villages in East Lake. In addition, Donghu Village also needs some supplies and craftsmen...
Regarding Wang Jing’s request.
Ran Liang only thought about it for a moment before agreeing.
He also specially called Army Sima Huang Sheng to ask him to handle these things as soon as possible.
"It seems a bit strange! There are no strong enemies around Hebian Village except the Liang Shanshui Bandits. Why are they still squeezing the people's power like this? Instead of cultivating farmland, they are stepping up the construction of city walls?"
After Wang Jing came out, he glanced around and saw the current situation of Hebian Village, and he couldn't help but have questions in his heart.
"Wang Jing!"
At this time, Zhang Hun strode over with a sincere smile on his face.
"Brother Zhang!"
Wang Jing and Zhang Hun walked to a quiet place to talk.
Without exchanging a few words with the other party, Wang Jing asked directly: "Brother Zhang, did something big happen to Hebian Village? Why did you waste people's energy to build the city instead of going to farm fields?"
Zhang Hun's expression slowly became serious after hearing these words.
He sighed deeply.
"Your senses are indeed as sharp as before! You are right, but something big happened not in Hebian Village, but in Bailian Village!"
"Four days ago, hundreds of elite cavalry appeared in the north of Bailian Village..."
Wang Jing's body became solemn as he listened to the other party's story.
Because according to Zhang Hun, the hundreds of cavalry who appeared in the north of Bailian Village were very elite. They seemed to have wandered from further north. After discovering Bailian Village, they launched an attack directly.
Fortunately, Captain Zhen Hu, who stayed in Bailian Village these days, kept building the wall, and could barely block the opponent's offensive with the wall.
After the opponent's initial failure, they camped twenty miles north of Bailian Village.
Then he sent cavalry galloping around to gather all the refugees and rebels living further north.
Any normal person can see what they want to do...the other party wants to gather the refugees to serve as human shields and rely on manpower to forcibly attack Bailian Village!
"What is the origin of these hundreds of cavalry?"
Wang Jing asked with a frown.
Zhang Hun said: "It is said that they are the cavalry of the Murong clan of Yan State!"
Yan State, Murong clan!
Wang Jing was shocked. The Yan State mentioned here was not the one during the Warring States Period, but the Yan State that defeated Ran Wei and occupied Hebei and Liaodong after the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
It was also the Yan country that Murong Fu never forgot to restore!
Moreover, Murong and Ran Wei were mortal enemies in history.
After the founding of Ran Wei, Murong Ke led the Yan army south to attack Hebei. After a series of battles, he relied on his powerful troops and supplies to defeat Ran Min, who had the most powerful force in the world.
"Ran Wei only has one top general, Ran Min! The Murong clan has many more famous generals than Ran Wei!"
Whether it is Murong Ke, who is known as the most capable general in the Sixteen Kingdoms,
Murong Chui, the God of War, who was still extremely feared by the famous Prime Minister Wang Meng, was the top talent in the entire history.
Murong's armored cavalry is unmatched in the world.
Compared with Murong's cavalry, the Beggar Army was just a force formed by refugees. Without Ran Min, there would be no chance of winning against the Murong clan.
"He is indeed a formidable enemy!"
Wang Jing murmured.
Hundreds of Murong's cavalry were enough to defeat an array of ten thousand people on the frontal battlefield!
Without Bailianzhai to delay the opponent's offensive, Murong's cavalry must have arrived at the riverside fort.
"Yes! A strong enemy is approaching. In the past few days, the captain has asked people to seize the time to build the city wall. It seems that once Murong's cavalry has gathered enough civilians, Bailian Village will not be able to defend it... The people who stayed in Bailian Village are evacuating! "
"It just so happens that you requested relocated refugees to replenish East Lake Fort. These people, as well as various supplies, will be sent to East Lake Fort!"
Zhang Hun felt a little embarrassed when he said this.
"By the way, last time you asked me to ask the captain to transfer the refugees to East Lake Fort, but the military commander didn't agree, and there was nothing I could do! Fortunately, the captain agreed this time."
Wang Jing's brows moved slightly, but he was not surprised.
I have no foundation in the beggar army, so it is normal for my request to be rejected.
But I thought about Army Sima Huang Sheng still talking and laughing in front of me just now. It was as if he was not the one who refused his request.
Sure enough, a person who can become a beggar army commander is very scheming and shameless.
"When the people of Bailian Village arrive, take your people and the assigned ordnance and craftsmen and leave as soon as possible!"
"If Bailian Village cannot withstand it, Hebian Village will become a battlefield with Murong's cavalry! East Lake Village will definitely be affected as well!"
"After we go back, it's best to build another military stronghold on the south bank of the river..."
Zhang Hun reminded.
He didn't finish his last words, but Wang Jing understood what he meant.
Once the Hebian Village was breached by Murong's cavalry, all the military villages that spread out to the north of the river would be wiped out by Murong's cavalry, and East Lake Village was no exception.
However, no matter how sharp the cavalry is, they cannot cross the river with their horses and cannot threaten the south bank in a short time.
Wang Jing can leave a retreat on the south bank of the river in advance, and when he has to, he can move people and supplies there.
"this……"
Have things reached this point?
Wang Jing was speechless. The Liang Shanshui thieves hadn't been dealt with yet. Another powerful enemy appeared, and it was a powerful enemy that the beggar army was not sure of defeating!
time!
If you can have enough time to grow stronger, Liangshan Water Village and Murong Cavalry will be just a small trouble!
Those who achieve great things must have an indomitable mentality.
Wang Jing was still a little short of this, and he felt very bad when he heard the bad news.
However, this emotion did not stay in Wang Jing's heart for too long.
The begging army had hundreds of elites at the beginning, and Murong's cavalry also had hundreds of people when they appeared. This was the foundation of their force.
When he first arrived, he was alone.
Don't he now have dozens of soldiers under his command, and a talented person named Shen Yi to help him?
The Beggar Army and Murong Cavalry are both pure armies. Without talents who are good at internal affairs, their future growth will be limited! In this regard, Wang Jing has the advantage.
"Hurry up! After the first batch of rice is harvested, go to the south bank and build a military stronghold first! Also, the news I got is too late. I must know this important information as soon as possible if I think of a way in the future!"
Wang Jing calmed down.
On the second day.
The more than two thousand people who originally stayed in Bailian Village were brought back. The cultivated fields around Bailian Village were destroyed by Murong's cavalry, and many people were killed.
At this time, more than two thousand men and women still had horror on their faces.
After these people came back, Army Sima Huang Sheng and Captain Zhou Gong immediately transferred the young and strong among them and organized them into civilian husbands and auxiliary soldiers!
There are more than a thousand old, weak, women and children left. If Wang Jing is willing, he can take them all to the three villages of East Lake... For today's beggar army, these old, weak, women and children are a big trouble.
Staying in the village consumes too much food and grass! It would be too cruel to drive him out directly, which makes people very confused.
But to Wang Jing, as long as they are human beings, they are also useful to the old, weak, women and children! So he directly agreed and prepared to bring back all the more than a thousand old and weak people.
Perhaps because he saw that he was doing his best to solve the troubles for the beggar army, before Wang Jing left, Ran Liang gave him another official position.
Deputy Lieutenant of Donghu Tuntian!
It can nominally take charge of the three military villages in East Lake, and is responsible for guarding the east for the beggar army and guarding against Liang Shanshui thieves.
