Zhutian: Starting from the Space-Time Merchant

Chapter 64 If I take you through time, you will die

"Rebuilding the local administrative system."

"We don't want any of the existing clerks."

"Official clerk positions will be selected first from among disabled military households."

"When military households retire at an older age, they are given priority for clerk positions."

"The military households all attend night school and have basic literacy and simple calculation skills, which is enough for them to take on the responsibility."

"The main task in each place is to gather refugees and barbarians and restore local production and life."

Inside the county government office, Lin Dao made arrangements for Wang Meng and others.

Wherever the Qihuo Army passed, the local government system of the Later Zhao Dynasty collapsed.

Lin Dao did not choose to plunder everything like a refugee, but instead made careful arrangements to take over the place.

"The regular soldiers of the military households are the real ones who belong to us."

"If there's anything good, they must come first."

Lin Dao took a deep breath and looked at Wang Meng. "I heard that many children from wealthy families have come here to seek refuge recently."

"Most of them are from humble backgrounds."

Wang Meng's expression remained calm. "Maybe there are children from wealthy families, but their families have long fallen on hard times and they are just trying to survive."

After the Yongjia Southern Migration, the aristocratic families that remained in the north either surrendered to the Hu people or became ruined and left with only their name on the throne.

"You can accept them, and arrange for them to do the copywriting." Lin Dao took out a bottle of water and unscrewed it. "One thing to remember is that we don't want the descendants of families who have surrendered to the barbarians."

"Here~~~"

After drinking half a bottle of mineral water in one breath, Lin Dao breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since he saw the swollen corpse pulled out of the well, he never drank the water here again.

"Master Lang."

Wang Meng saluted again and said, "Many Jie cavalry are watching closely. I'm afraid their troops will come and harass us soon."

"I hope my lord will deal with it properly."

This was a subtle reminder to Lin Dao that they were almost reaching Yecheng and the Jiehu cavalry attack was about to come.

My Lord, if you have any powerful weapon to deal with the problem, you must prepare it as soon as possible.

If they cannot produce it by then, the hundreds of thousands of beggar soldiers will really follow in the footsteps of the Jin army in Ningping City.

During the Battle of Ningping City, Shi Le took advantage of the cavalry's rapid mobility and implemented a tactic of penetration, division and encirclement against the Jin Dynasty's soldiers and civilians, chasing and shooting them at will.

The Jin army's cavalry was incompetent and lacked the power to resist, resulting in corpses everywhere.

Those who surrendered were all killed.

The Qihuo Army at this time was very similar to the Jin Army of that year.

There were also not enough cavalry, and a large number of weak vassals were holding them back.

The opponent is still the Jiehu, but they are much stronger than they were thirty years ago.

There is only one advantage.

The Qihuo Army has a firm core leader.

"Peace of mind."

Lin Dao stood in the courtroom, looking around at the gloomy environment. "I have prepared a surprise for Shi Hu."

"This place is so dark!"

He looked at Wang Meng and said slowly, "Have you ever seen an elephant?"

"I once saw one in the mountains and forests while traveling." Wang Meng stood aside calmly. "One elephant is enough to feed a thousand people."

After all, it was a time of chaos, and when something was mentioned, the first thing that came to mind was food.

There are actually elephants in the north.

The word "Yu" means a person leading an elephant.

Later, due to thousands of years of continuous development, the forest grassland gradually became fields.

During the Little Ice Age, the temperature dropped, making it unsuitable for the survival of creatures such as elephants and rhinos.

Of course, the most important thing is the crazy hunting by humans, which caused the elephants to retreat rapidly to the south.

"Who do you think would win in a clash between an elephant and a cavalryman?"

"The elephant wins."

"Then if a behemoth many times larger than an elephant were to charge the cavalry, who would win?"

Wang Meng's face was full of helplessness.

He had never seen anything bigger than an elephant.

It is completely impossible to imagine what the thing Lin Dao was talking about looked like.

"I think the bigger the size, the more powerful it is."

Lin Dao was smiling, revealing his sharp white teeth. "Armored cavalry? I've prepared a great gift for them."

modern world.

Lin Dao was checking the modification effect of the 100-ton King mining truck when he received a gloating call from Zhou Zhe.

"Where are you during working hours?"

Lin Dao raised his eyebrows, got in the car and rushed back to the warehouse.

Normally, if there is no reported goods entering or leaving the warehouse on that day, he will lock the warehouse and go about his own business.

I never thought that someone would come to inspect the warehouse today.

Back at the warehouse door, there were two cars parked there and several people from the company were waiting at the door.

Zhou Zhe walked forward with a smug look on his face, intending to make a few sarcastic remarks.

Lin Dao's slightly fierce gaze swept over him, making him stop instantly.

After living in a chaotic world where life is worthless for a long time and experiencing the baptism of war, one becomes naturally murderous without having to do anything intentional.

When the warehouse door opened, the president and his mother, who was a director, got out of the business car together.

The president is fair-skinned, wears earrings, has a handsome face, and looks like the type that women will like at first glance.

As for the CEO's mother~~~
Her skin is as white as snow, and her face, washed by time, is full of maturity.

Wearing a professional suit and high heels.

His shoulders are thin, but his forward lean shows his advantages.

The curve narrows to the waist and then widens again.

It shows off the unattainable graceful figure of women of this age.

There is no doubt that considering her age, she has spent a huge amount of money and energy on maintaining her face and body.

The mother and son didn't even glance at Lin Dao, the clerk, and walked straight into the warehouse. Lin Dao smiled casually, and just wanted to quit this job and focus on his career.

As for this mother and son, the suppression and interception are still going on, so let's take it slow.

"The woods."

Feeling embarrassed, Zhou Zhe came over and said, "You're absent from work during working hours. No one can protect you this time."

There is no shortage of such people in any company, school, unit or other group.

Lin Dao didn't say anything, but raised his hand and pressed it on the shoulder of Zhou Zhe, who had a gloating look on his face.

Meeting Lin Dao's gaze, Zhou Zhe felt a fear that he would die in the next moment!
If I take you through time, you will die.

Lin Dao smiled without saying anything, finally let go of her hand, and turned to leave.

Zhou Zhe held his knees with his hands, breathing heavily, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

The feeling I had before was so horrible.

The president's mother looked at the pile of returned goods in the warehouse, her hands clasped around the protrusion in front of her, her face as gloomy as water.

"The business didn't get done, and it squeezed the company's working capital."

"Do you know how much pressure I'm under at the board meeting?"

Facing the reprimand, the handsome CEO also frowned and said, "Someone is deliberately suppressing me. Every time my business is going well, it will always be intercepted by others."

"Then go check it out!"

The CEO's mother interrupted decisively, "Find out who's targeting you and then find a way to solve it instead of complaining here."

"You must dispose of these goods as soon as possible and recover the company's funds."

"My say in the company is not as big as you think!"

"Supporting you to become the CEO is already my limit. Don't implicate me!"

The president, with a look of resignation on his face, still said angrily, "I know."

Leaving the warehouse and getting in the car, the CEO's mother leaned back in the seat and crossed her long legs. "Fire that warehouse manager."

"You wasted my time and looked at me in a way that made me uncomfortable."

Lin Dao resigned voluntarily, packed up his things and moved to his own warehouse next door.

To him, it was just a small matter.

The war that is about to break out in Yonghe time and space is the top priority.

A large number of Hu cavalry continued to harass the Qihuo army, forcing the various units of the Qihuo army to stop and set up camp to resist.

The Hu cavalry made full use of the mobility advantage of cavalry to entangle and contain the various units of the Qihuo army.

The huge Qihuo army was unable to defend the entire area, and many places were directly exposed to the attack of the Hu cavalry.

The opportunity to fight has appeared, and Shi Hu is determined to deal a fatal blow to Qihuo.

"Ma Qiu."

Shi Hu, riding on the golden chariot, called out to his trusted generals, "Your troops should charge into battle, but do not embarrass the reputation of the army."

Ma Qiu, who was reused, immediately bowed deeply and said, "I will die for the king!"

The Black Spear Dragon Sovereign Army, which had suffered heavy losses before, has been repaired and replenished.

Although the number of armored cavalry has recovered to 3,000, the combat effectiveness of the newly added armored cavalry is far less than before.

Shi Hu released the core combat force of the Black Spear Dragon Army with the sole purpose of seizing military merit and prestige, and then continuing to suppress the ambitious troops.

In the eyes of everyone, sending thousands of armored cavalry to charge at the defenseless refugees was a completely easy feat.

Overwhelm the large number of refugees, force them into chaos, and thus lead to the collapse of the entire beggar army.

This is the same tactic as the one Shi Le fought in Ningping City.

"Drawing fish."

Ma Qiu returned to the battle formation and called his generals to ask, "Have you investigated thoroughly?"

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief." Ji Yu saluted. "The scouts have already investigated."

"There are over ten thousand soldiers begging for life, most of whom are refugees, and there are less than a thousand combat soldiers."

"Two or three miles away is another beggar army. They are larger in number, but still have few combatants."

"Hahaha~~~" Ma Qiu laughed triumphantly, "The Qihuo Army is too arrogant."

"There aren't many soldiers left, and they're scattered everywhere. They're courting death!"

Stopping his laughter, Ma Qiu asked another crucial question.

"Have you seen those long coils of iron?"

They had witnessed the horror of barbed wire with their own eyes and had to be on guard against it.

"The Beggars' Army has deployed troops on both wings, but not on the front."

At this point, Ji Yu said anxiously, "The beggars haven't had time to make arrangements yet. The governor should seize the opportunity."

Ma Qiu waved his hand and said, "This governor has his own plans."

Ma Qiu, who had suffered losses before, became much more cautious and did not rush to attack.

The armored cavalrymen wore armor and sat on the ground, eating dry food and resting.

The auxiliary soldiers served the war horses, feeding them bean cake feed mixed with salt and clean water.

Ma Qiu waited until the Qihuo Army sent out men and began to pull the barbed wire in front before he ordered the armored cavalry to mount their horses.

With the help of auxiliary soldiers, many armored cavalry mounted their horses and took their lances from the victory hooks.

They put on their ferocious masks, rode their horses forward and gathered into teams according to their respective organizations.

"Draw fish!"

Ma Qiu shouted, "Your troops charge first! After breaking through the formation, drive the ants to the next group."

"Du Xun! Hello, Qi's mother!"

"You two troops, follow and charge into battle."

"After breaking the formation, split up to the left and right wings to surround and drive away the ants!"

All the generals saluted and said, "Yes, sir!"

A low ox horn sounded, and thousands of armored cavalrymen of the Black Spear Dragon Soaring Army marched forward in a mighty force.

Ji Yu, who was leading the charge, suddenly saw a huge monster wrapped in cloth appear among the beggars' army on the opposite side.

"A siege tower? A siege vehicle? A ladder?"

"This place is still dozens of miles away from Yecheng. These siege weapons will fall apart before they even reach the city."

Ji Yu was very surprised. He had never seen this thing before. Where did it come from?
With such a huge volume, are the scouts blind?
At this time, the armored cavalry has begun to gradually increase its speed. There is no point in saying more, just charge forward.

As long as there were no strange long iron rolls, nothing in the world could withstand the impact of thousands of armored cavalry.
