Chapter 269
The next day, the [-] Hengshan Army was stationed in the north of Jing'an City. Li Yuan kept the agreement and sent a batch of food and grass to the army camp.

And Chen Dengke, who went to Huazhou to set up the base of the investigation department, also secretly came to the barracks to report the latest information to Lin Yifan. At the same time, he will serve as Lin Yifan's military staff officer and be responsible for the intelligence and military affairs of this battle.

"My lord, this time our investigation department has dispatched most of the people to sneak into Huazhou to gather all the information about the imperial army." Chen Dengke looked very haggard at this time, his whole body was thin and dark, and his eyes were full of exhaustion.But at this moment, he still held on to his spirit and carefully reported the current situation to Lin Yifan. "Although the time is too short, we have also collected a lot of useful information. My lord, do you know who the coach of our Anzhou crusade is?"

"Oh? Don't tell me I still know him?" Lin Yifan was slightly startled and asked in doubt.

"That's right, it is your lord's enemy, Cao Ziyan, the son of Prime Minister Cao." Chen Dengke said excitedly, "My lord, if we can take him down in one fell swoop in this battle, we will be able to avenge your lord's revenge that day."

Lin Yifan frowned slightly, this Cao Ziyan was Lin Dong's opponent, he was demoted to Hengshan with his father's power, and finally died on the way.Since I have inherited his identity, out of emotion and reason, I must avenge him. "Well, since he's coming towards me, I'd like to see what kind of disturbance this former defeated general can create here? Since I can defeat him in the imperial examination, I can also defeat him on the battlefield. "

"Your Excellency is mighty!" Chen Dengke flattered by the way, showing his heart, and then continued, "Since the 20 troops led by Cao Ziyan entered Huazhou, they have mobilized a large number of soldiers and civilians from various counties and counties in Huazhou to meet in Fucheng. Incorporated into the army, the army now has nearly [-] people. According to information, the current imperial army has set off from the state capital of Huazhou and rushed to Jishan Pass, and it is estimated that it will arrive in about ten days. Our time is running out."

"Yes, it seems that this time the imperial court has made up its mind to eradicate us completely. In this battle, he will die or we will die. Director Chen, your intelligence will be very important in wartime and will determine the victory or defeat of our army. The future of our Hengshan depends on you." Lin Yifan said solemnly, staring at Chen Dengke with a serious face.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely go all out to ensure the smooth flow of our army's intelligence." Chen Dengke straightened his body and said seriously.

Li Yuan acted resolutely. Now that he established the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness, he immediately took measures to send troops to sweep the surrounding counties and counties, driving the people out of their homes.Then the Li family army snatched all the valuables from the people's homes like locusts, and then burned down the houses, filled the wells, trampled the fields, and carried out the task of clearing the fields.Li Yuan, who has completely given up on southern Anzhou, has no scruples. He doesn't care about the wailing and weeping of the people. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy.

In just a few days, the southern Anzhou was filled with fireworks and cries, and those who didn't know thought that the Golden Werewolf had gone south again.At this time, countless people gathered around Jing'an City. The young and strong people were selected as the people's strength to help defend the city.

In the Hengshan barracks, all the officers and soldiers were so angry that they couldn't bear it, they begged Lin Yifan to take action to stop this human tragedy.What they don't know is that the instigator of this strategy is the adult they fear the most.

Lin Yifan also did not expect that Li Yuan would act so recklessly, and the situation was completely beyond his expectation.Originally, what he wanted was to temporarily relocate the people from their homes and gather them in the big city.After the war, they returned to their hometowns and restored their homes.But he didn't expect that Li Yuan would be so angry.After thinking about it carefully, he found that the ultimate culprit was himself, if he hadn't coveted the territory in southern Anzhou and agreed to exchange with Li Yuan.In order to maintain his rule, Li Yuan definitely did not dare to act like this.

Therefore, Lin Yifan immediately went to the city to find Li Yuan, asking him to treat the people well.But at this moment, Li Yuan refused to meet him on the grounds that he was suffering from illness, making it clear that he didn't want to see him.

Furious, Lin Yifan immediately went to question Ye Hongyu, but Ye Hongyu didn't choose to run away.He just met Lin Yifan with a shame on his face.

"Mr. Ye, why is this?" Lin Yifan suppressed his anger and stared at Ye Hongyu, "The strong wall and clearing the country suggested by the official is not a three-light policy that burns and loots and kills the people. What is the difference between you and the golden werewolf?" ?”

Ye Hongyu sighed bitterly, "Lord Lin, I have had a big fight with my lord over this matter, but I still can't persuade my lord to change his mind. For this, I am deeply ashamed."

"Damn it, that old man didn't dare to see me. He hid himself and pretended to be sick. It was obvious that he wanted to go his own way and completely destroy southern Anzhou." Lin Yifan snorted coldly, "Mr. Ye, what should we do now? We can't let the common people Displaced, starved to death on the road, right?"

"This is a troubled world!" Ye Hongyu raised his head and sighed, helplessly, "In a troubled world, human life is like worthless. Who can't sacrifice it for the benefit of the superior? The mere common people, their cause is not as important as theirs."

"Huh, it's ridiculous. Since ancient times, people are like water, and we are boats. Water can carry a boat and overturn it. The most fundamental strength of a power lies in the people. If it can't win the hearts of the people, it will rise tall buildings in the sand, and they will explode at any time. Collapsed." Lin Yifan snorted coldly, mocking with contempt on his face.

"Water can carry a boat as well as overturn it? My lord said it wonderfully!" Ye Hongyu exclaimed, and looked at Lin Yifan with emotion, "If my lord could have half as much heart as Master Lin, you wouldn't be in this situation. Ugh!"

"So what, even with my heart, I can't let my husband come to Hengshan, alas." Lin Yifan shook his head and looked at him regretfully, with eagerness in his eyes.

Ye Hongyu's expression moved slightly, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, he looked at Lin Yifan gratefully, smiled and said nothing.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now." Lin Yifan showed a distressed look on his face, "Sir, I really can't bear to see the people suffer like this. I wonder if you have a clever plan to save these people?"

"My lord has such a compassionate heart, I admire you so much." Ye Hongyu solemnly bowed to him, "If you want to save the people, now you can only rely on you, my lord."

"I?"

"Yes, I wonder if my lord still remembers the agreement signed before?" Ye Hongyu asked with a slight smile.

"You mean the agreement on mutual relocation of the common people?" Lin Yifan suddenly realized, "I know, the master wants me to move the common people to Hengshan according to this agreement?"

"Of course?"

"Li Yuan, will he agree?"

"My lord has already decided to give up this place, and I will definitely not refuse." Ye Hongyu nodded with absolute certainty.

"Well, leave this matter to me." Lin Yifan's heart finally fell to the ground. Relocating people to Hengshan has always been something he wanted to do but couldn't do.As long as the people in Anzhou can survive, they will not think about running away from home.So much so that since the signing of the agreement, only 1 people are willing to move to Hengshan, but Hengshan has paid tens of thousands of people.

After Lin Yifan informed the officials of the Li family about this plan, he quickly got Li Yuan's approval.With the joint efforts of the two families, countless people began to drive northward continuously.

Lin Yifan also immediately wrote a letter and sent it back to Hengshan, instructing the Executive Yuan to quickly formulate resettlement measures.

When everyone was busy preparing for the battle, a letter came from Hengshan, written by Lin Shuwan to herself, and a private letter from Luo Qinger was attached to it.

Lin Yifan opened Luo Qing'er's letter first, and read it impatiently.What was written in it were some trivial matters of life and words of concern, which warmed his heart. After reading it three times, he reluctantly put it down and picked up Lin Shuwan's long letter.

Except for the first few greetings in Lin Shuwan's letter, the rest of the letter is about the autumn harvest.This time the autumn harvest task was completed very well. Under the leadership of Lin Shuwan, the women's battalion fought continuously for several days and nights, and finally harvested the wheat.During this period, many women collapsed in the fields due to exhaustion, but they did not give up. After a short rest, they got up and continued to work.Finally, within half a month, all the tasks of the autumn harvest were completed, and all 50 mu of wheat were collected into the granary.For the women's battalion to complete the task so well, it was praised by all the officials of the Executive Yuan, and even recognized by the stunned men who got the news.When the women of the women's battalion walked on the street, there were all voices of admiration.

Seeing this, Lin Yifan felt very relieved. The woman from Hengshan finally took a solid step, and she will take a second step in the future, going faster and faster.

As the situation became more and more tense, all the forces of the Li family retreated in the big city, waiting for the arrival of the imperial army.The Hengshan Army was divided into two, [-] civilians scattered to the major cities to assist in defending the city, [-] cavalry quickly went south, plunged into the area around the uninhabited Jishan, and disappeared.
