Chapter 584 584: Evil Neighbor (Part 1) [Please ask for monthly votes]
"What? Where was the attack?"
Chen Tang stood up in place and looked at Ning Yan.
The rest of the staff also turned their heads one after another.
Ning Yan breathed steadily and said, "Nanyu County."
Chen Tang lowered his face and pursed the corners of his lips. The two years of rest made her look less sharp and more gentle and more humble than before. But at this moment, the cold murderous intent bursting out in his eyes was even more powerful than before: "That group of dogs in Shiwu?"
The first suspect in Longwu County was attacked was Shiwu. However, Chen Tang thought about it again - according to the information sent back by Yu Zi and a few others from Shiwu, Shiwu was now divided, and nearly 80% of the middle and lower tribes competed with the large tribes.
The two sides fought for water sources, food, mineral veins, military power, and even who was the orthodox of the Ten Wus. The once arrogant Ten Wus royal court also died in name only after Su Shiyilu led his tribe to leave the royal court, and the two forces completely turned against each other.
The ten-black slaves took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the situation. They were large in scale, but they had a fatal weakness - they were all ordinary people.
He does not have the capital to fight against tribal forces with extraordinary abilities, but as the behind-the-scenes driver, how could Chen Tang not take the opportunity to add fuel to the fire? They are indeed weak ordinary people, but they are not without strong trump cards!
They can use "faith" as weapons.
Promote the legend of ancestors everywhere.
Give sustenance to the tribal residents who were trapped in war.
Assimilate all the enemies into your own people.
Today, the Shiwu, unless the brave and fierce son of luck is brought down from heaven and knocked down the entire Shiwu with absolute iron-blooded means, they will not be able to twist the rope at all. In this case, how can we raise our troops and launch a sneak attack on Nanyu County?
Ning Yan''s answer also verified Chen Tang''s guess.
"No, it''s not ten thousand."
Chen Tang frowned: "That''s who is evil neighbor."
Due to the time, Nanyu County collected grain into the warehouse two or three days in advance, and the new grain was piled in the local grain warehouse. Only after it was counted clearly will it be delivered to the courtyard. Good neighbors are neither too late nor too late, so they call them at this time. They can tell what they want to look for.
What Qi Shan is most worried about is still happening.
Chen Tang is good at farming management and focuses a lot on restoring people''s livelihood. He does not feel sorry for the underground budget, and strives to make the people under his rule wear warm clothes and eat full, so that the common people can benefit. But if the force cannot keep up, the results will be plundered at any time.
Everyone understands this.
In the past two years, we have worked hard to make progress together.
While restoring the livelihood economy in Longwu County, we will use all means to attract refugees to settle down, recruit available young and strong people from it, train strictly, and strive to make up for their shortcomings. It took two years to expand the troops to 25,000.
You should know how rare this size is for a small border county with a small population. How many households are there in Longwu County? Where can the finance and taxation area be able to afford 25,000 elite troops in this place? It’s not Chen Tang’s various money-making subsidies.
There are still shortcomings in such efforts.
Middle and high-level martial artists are rare.
Chu Jie couldn''t stand it, so he gave Chen Tang two experienced veterans, including the previous cheating, a total of four people. In addition to Chen Tang''s original team of martial artists, he could barely see. The number of people has passed, but the average quality is not good!
The most important thing is that there is no eye-catching sword on the battlefield. A brave warrior is a "consumable" in a sense, and may lose half of it if you lose a battle. Chen Tang had no choice but to focus his attention on the potential stocks of "new generation" such as Tu Rong, Lu Ji and Zhao Wei.
Give these young people more opportunities to make contributions in exchange for more martial arts fortunes and forcefully speed up the progress of their cultivation.
Lu Jue and Bai Su also felt a sense of urgency. Without affecting military affairs, they often went to seclusion and practiced hard.
Chen Tang also secretly helped.
but-
Two years is still a bit short.
There was a bumper harvest in the first year, and neighbors were still waiting and watching.
The next year, the harvest was good, and the neighbors were already greedy.
Chen Tang asked: "Who is the garrison in Nanyu County?"
Ning Yan replied, "It''s Bai Duwei."
Chen Tang suppressed his murderous intent: "How many soldiers are there in the enemy?"
"Five thousand." The enemy''s action was not at all predicted.
Five thousand cavalrymen took advantage of the night to suddenly enter the country and attack the west with the method of saying the east and killing several villages and towns, creating chaos, confusing Bai Su and others'' vision. They came and went like the wind, their actions were not blocked, and they didn''t need to be taken into account in anything they did, but Bai Su was afraid of the mouse and their actions were blocked. In addition, everything happened too suddenly, which led to a very passive situation...
Chen Tang also issued an order.
Once there is war, put the people first.
Bai Su''s garrison is very small and cannot face the enemy head-on. We can only send troops to defend the enemy and ask for help from the capital, while organizing common people to hide in the prepared war-avoiding bunker building to minimize casualties.
The fundamental problem is the lack of troops.
Fortunately, the enemy''s target is the granary.
There is not too much love for the fight.
Chen Tang knew very well that eggs could not be placed in one basket, so he divided the granary into three places, with different sizes.
If you encounter an enemy, you will not be taken away in one fell swoop.
Chen Tang smiled angrily: "Five thousand? It''s pretty good. If it weren''t for the grain warehouse, would these five thousand people slaughter the whole country of Nanyu County? The shortage of food can be discussed openly and sent troops to rob...when I won''t get angry?"
She hasn''t killed anyone in two years.
It is necessary to force her loving mother to see blood, right?
Chu Yao and others also turned cold.
The few people reached an agreement almost instantly.
This loss must be paid back ten times.
If big things turn into small things, Chen Tang, the county magistrate of Longwu, is not a "benevolent gentleman", but a "big injustice", "mobile granary", "coward". Anyone who lacks food can send 5,000 people to buy it for zero yuan.
Such a hole must not be opened.
"Is it where Sibao County?"
Chu Yao passed through the distribution of neighbors around him.
There are only two suspects in Nanyu County, and Sibao County is the most suspected. The last Sibao County Governor was Yan Cheng, who was killed by Chen Tang and Qi Shan. Later, Zheng Qiao sent a new one, and was replaced by Qiu Cheng, who was born in a gentry within two months.
Ning Yan said, "Yes, it''s under Qiucheng''s tent."
Chen Tang reluctantly found out who this was.
"Qiu Wenyan?" She sneered, "This old cub breed!"
Everyone tacitly ignored the lord''s swearing.
Chen Tang gritted his teeth: "Click all the troops and go back!"
Sibao County…
She is very familiar with this place.
Chu Yao and others did not agree immediately, but frowned and reminded Chen Tang about something. This Qiu Cheng was born in the second house of Qiu family. He responded to Huang Lie''s call and held high the banner of righteousness to attack Zheng Qiao. In other words, he is one of the allies of the Dragon Slaying Bureau.
If you attack this person, you are afraid that it will cause trouble.
"What trouble? Are you raising troops to attack me?"
Chen Tang raised his hand and lifted the table directly.
"I don''t care if he is an ally of the Dragon Slaying Bureau or a garbage from the Insect Slaying Bureau. If he is short of food, he will not rob Zheng Qiao, come to rob his ancestors'' granary, and set fire to kill people in Nanyu County... Wu Zhaode, Gu Ziyi and others dare to be lobbyists, I will do it with them!"
