Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 360
Murong Yanda didn't know who he had offended, so he could come to Qingzhou, a treasured place of geomantic omen, to be the parent official.

In fact, in this time and space, because of Sun Xin's disturbance, the little overlord Zhou Tong of Peach Blossom Mountain was killed, Li Zhong heard that he was killed by bandits on Qingzhou Road, and Lu Zhishen never went to Baozhu Temple in Erlong Mountain There is no such thing as rising. As for Qingfeng Mountain, which has declined since Wang Xiaohu and others went to Liangshan, there is only Baihu Mountain, Kong Liang, who is still doing evil on the mountain. In fact, the situation Murong Yanda is facing is better than that in the novel. There are many.

Faced with Murong Yanda's worry, Sun Xin said with a smile: "Our protection army already has thousands of soldiers outside Qingzhou City, and it is more than enough to defend him with a Baihu Mountain to borrow food."

Hearing this, Murong Yanda was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I also have the township army as guards here, but if the bandits are powerful, we need to send some troops to help in time."

Murong Yanda didn't think that the militiamen could help his Qingzhou City with Sun Xin's idea, but he was very happy to have this manpower to help.

He also knew that Sun Xin had made a fortune in Dengzhou, and that his Supervisory Committee even controlled the operations of several counties, so Hengba Township said it lightly.

In Murong Yanda's eyes, Sun Xin is a standard local tyrant and evil gentry, but he doesn't hate this kind of evil gentry. The Song Dynasty was originally the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats, and this local tyrant is the foundation of the court. As for whether Sun Xin is bullying men and women What does it have to do with him?
Prefect Murong has known for a long time that the officials and Sun Xin have a very close relationship. The officials like Sun Xin's books and have business contacts with Sun Xin. Xin, even if Sun Xin commits some minor crimes, the officials will help him protect him.

Murong Yanda felt that under such circumstances, Sun Xin had no motive to rebel at all, so he was completely relieved of Sun Xin.

Coming out of the Dengzhou government office, Luan Tingyu, who was originally stationed outside the city, also got the news and rushed into the city. Sun Xin was about to talk to him when he saw Jiang Jinglai rushing out from behind Luan Tingyu.

Sun Xin was surprised, he is now the chief steward of the Bank of the Supervisory Committee, he should be busy in Dengzhou, why did he suddenly come to Qingzhou?

"Why didn't brother stay at Sunjiazhuang?"

Jiang Jing hurriedly handed a letter to Sun Xin: "Master, please read it."

Sun Xin unfolded the letter. The content of the letter was that Du Cai, the eunuch sent by Zhao Ji, was going to Dengzhou soon, and he sent someone to Dengzhou to remind him in advance.

Sun Xin knew that the letter must have come from behind him. He came from Dongsan Mansion and brought the army along the way so he walked slowly, and the messenger sent by the eunuch didn't know him, so he missed him and arrived at Sunjiazhuang. After Jiang Jing read the letter, he didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly chased after him.

Jiang Jing's face was full of worry: "I'm afraid this Eunuch Du will be difficult to deal with. What if he intervenes in the operation of our supervisory board bank?"

The eunuchs sent by the Zhao official family are well-known. Whether they are supervising the army in the military state or taking care of business in the imperial stores, they are all for the wrong party. Jiang Jing really didn't know how to deal with it, so he came here specially. Qingzhou asked Sun Xin.

Sun Xin thought for a while, handed the letter back to Jiang Jing with a smile and said, "Don't worry, brother, you can stay here for a while, and send some people to Qingzhou Road to wait for Du Cai first. According to his letter, he It will take a few days to get from Qingzhou Road, and this person who passed by has already delivered the letter so far away from Dengzhou, he must be a very old man, the driving must be very exaggerated, and you can tell it just by looking at it on the road."

"Brother, wait until someone is there and bring him to see you. I have my own share."

Jiang Jing nodded.

Although he is considered exquisite in mind, especially in professional skills, but Jiang Jingju came from a family background, and he is a little numb to eunuchs in his heart.

On the one hand, it was disgust and on the other hand, it was also fear. He didn't dare to make up his own mind at all. This kind of matter could only be handled by Sun Xin.

At this time, with Sun Xin's words to listen to him when he arrived, Jiang Jing felt a lot more secure in his stomach.

Ask the farmer to arrange a place for Jiang Jing to live, and let him wait quietly. Here, Sun Xincai and Luan Tingyu talked about the recent situation of the guards.

The total number of guards who came to Qingzhou was 5000, including four regiments, and some strengthened battalions.

In the future, thousands of people will be added, but not from Dengzhou, but from Zengtou City.

The first step in the battle plan formulated by the General Staff is to use Hu Yanzhuo to consume Liangshan’s soldiers and horses. From the analysis of the General Staff, although Hu Yanzhuo’s army may not win against Liangshan, it will consume Liangshan’s soldiers and horses. Certainly great.

This is also consistent with Sun Xin's memory. In the novel, Hu Yanzhuo only brought more than 8000 people to attack Liangshan, but it directly led to only [-] soldiers and horses that Song Jiang brought down when Liangshan came to capture Qingzhou.

This is not at all the number of soldiers and horses that Liangshan should have when it went down the mountain to plunder on a large scale. It can only show that Liangshan also suffered heavy casualties after the battle of Hu Yanzhuo's conquest of Liangshan in the novel.

But this time there were more than 2 soldiers and horses brought by Hu Yanzhuo to conquer Liangshan, and the chaos caused must have been even greater.

If Hu Yanzhuo can take down Liangshan in one fell swoop, the guards stationed in Qingzhou will immediately turn to counterattack and go to Liangshan to help out. If Hu Yanzhuo can't take down Liangshan, the five or six thousand guards are enough to defend the city.

At this stage, if there are too many people stationed outside Qingzhou City, it will easily attract the attention and suspicion of others, and Sun Xin is too lazy to go to this muddy water.

Anyway, when Qingzhou fights, he can transfer troops from Dengzhou at any time during the chaos.

At this moment, there are several regiments in the teaching field under Dengyun Mountain who are training intensively, and they can switch to combat status at any time. It will take no more than five days to transfer troops from Dengyun Mountain.

After exchanging the situation of the army with Luan Tingyu, Sun Xin asked his officers to take the army to Luan Tingyu's side first. He had already asked people to prepare to leave the camp, and the team had to take a rest after walking for several days.

After going out of the city to look at the barracks, Sun Xin found Wu Song again and told him, "We must hurry up on the matter of contacting the old Chao Gai department on Liangshan."

Wu Song nodded: "Ruan Xiaoqi still hesitated, but he didn't report our people. Presumably he also wants to see the direction of the wind."

Sun Xin frowned slightly. He felt that this was not good news, but thinking about it, Wu Song could only do so much.

Now Liangshan is almost in its heyday, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. If I were to be a leader on Liangshan, I would not dare to turn against the water before the war. The outcome of this battle is still uncertain in the eyes of everyone in Liangshan , even Liangshan's chances of winning are far greater than the possibility of defeating the battle. Isn't jumping back at this time looking for death?

Wu Song also said to Sun Xin: "Probably there is no possibility of an uprising before the war, but if Liangshan is defeated, they are still very likely to abandon the dark and turn to the bright."

Sun Xin nodded, "It's not bad to be able to do this. If they hadn't been defeated, we wouldn't dare to use the people they dug over."

After stationing soldiers and horses around Qingzhou City, on the one hand, the guards began to adapt to the training in the mountains, and on the other hand, the several stewards brought by Sun Xinhe began to intensively hoard food and grass.

As I said before, Sun Xin did not plan to garrison in Qingzhou City, and basically scattered the team's positions to the mountains outside Qingzhou City.

The main attack method of the protection army is long-range firepower. Using natural mountains as a position, the effect is far better than defending Qingzhou City in a flat area.

On the second day after Sun Xin arrived, the guards got up early and began to build positions. They had to clean up the shooting area and at the same time pull up barbed wire fences at key places. The task was very heavy.

At the same time, the team that transported the luggage had to send the food to Qingzhou City.

The positions can be built on the mountains, but the granaries cannot be placed in the mountains.

On the one hand, sending grain and grass from the granary on the mountain to various places will consume a lot of manpower, and the speed is also slow. On the other hand, the position on the mountain can be abandoned at any time. Building a granary on the mountain will affect the safety of grain and grass, so all grain must be stored in the state city .

Luan Tingyu had chosen the location of the grain camp long before Sun Xin arrived, rented the place directly, and built a series of convenient storage facilities in the grain and grass camp. All these things were done according to the rules, Qingzhou Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers are stationed in the city. The city’s governance capacity in this era is already low. With so many troops, the governance of the city has become chaotic. Every family has closed their shops and put up boards. They are afraid of being robbed by the officers and soldiers. The official staff were mobilized to look for supplies everywhere, and no one would notice the grain and grass hoarded by Sun Xin.

The Protectorate Army is an army that is close to the modern level. Its command can reach the company and platoon level. The complexity of the tasks it can complete and the complexity of command are not comparable to the army of this era.

So even if people of this age really came to observe the Protectorate Army, they would still be dazzled by this series of complicated mobilization instructions.

The protection army has been operating inside and outside Qingzhou City all day long, transporting equipment and food from the city, and transporting food and grass into the city.At the same time, they built houses near their granary, prepared to garrison a reinforced battalion, and even built simple watchtowers. If they didn't count specifically, it would be impossible to imagine how many resources the protection army had hoarded in Qingzhou City.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and there is already light snow in the sky. This war must be carried out quickly, otherwise both sides in the war will not be able to withstand the severe cold.

"Master, look who is coming."

Just as Sun Xin got up this morning, the farmer who usually took care of him hurried in to inform him that a guest had arrived.

When Sun Xin walked out of the barracks, he saw several people standing outside.

A tall man with a stern face was the desperate Saburo Shixiu he sent to garrison Zengtou City, and he was specially transferred back this time to help defend Qingzhou.

The other few people surprised Sun Xin.

"Daddy, why are you here?"

Zeng Daguan said: "We are also here to help the officers and soldiers suppress the bandits."

Sun Xin looked at Zeng Suo, who was next to Grand Officer Zeng, and seeing that Zeng Suo was wearing leather armor, he instantly understood what was going on.

Sun Xin walked down the camp together with Zeng Daguan, Zeng Suo and Shi Xiu in silence, and sure enough, he saw two militiamen lining up under the city wall.
