Chapter 242 Looting and Deploying Troops
In Baize City, Hu Weiyong and Bu Jing were arranged to rest in a room next to the yamen.

On the quiet street outside, there was suddenly the sound of horseshoes, and Hu Weiyong, who was resting, was suddenly awakened, and he quickly got up and listened.

"Did something happen?"

A trace of suspicion emerged in his heart. As far as he knew, there had been no war in Baize County for a long time, but the sound of horseshoes just now clearly meant that someone had reported an emergency to the county magistrate and county magistrate.

In today's mainland China, the only thing that can be called an emergency is war.

Thoughts in Hu Weiyong's mind turned quickly.

He quickly pieced together all kinds of information in his mind, and he suddenly thought of the river channel he had observed for a long time, and the canal channel was to the east of Baize.

Across the river is the territory of Pang Shigu and Hou Jing.

"The changes in the world have stopped, and the production of food has been greatly reduced... Pang Shigu and Hou Jing are just reckless people, and the food and grass in the camp must have been exhausted!"

"They are the same as Fu Rong, they will plunder everywhere without food and grass!"

Before coming to Baize, Hu Weiyong kept inquiring about Sihong's situation, including the distribution of forces around Sihong.

In the palace.

Many of the information obtained by the Military Intelligence Department, some of which are stored in an attic, where he checked a lot of useful information.

According to these messages.

Hu Weiyong secretly speculated that the anomaly tonight was most likely related to Pang Shigu and Hou Jing, maybe they sent soldiers across the river to plunder.

"If this is the case, Bai Ze will undergo a big change soon... This is a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds!"

Hu Weiyong's eyes flickered brightly.

Time passes quickly.

On the second day, Hu Weiyong knew exactly what happened last night.

"I didn't expect that Pang Shigu and Hou Jing would be so bold that they would send someone to provoke us! They are looking for death!"

When the servants brought the breakfast, there was a trace of anger in Bu Jing's tone.

At this time, the atmosphere in the county government office was a bit bad, and many officials showed nervousness and fear on their faces, obviously knowing what happened last night.I also know the origin of the enemy.

The county magistrate and county magistrate left the city early in the morning, making everyone in the county office panic.

Hu Weiyong was eating together next to him. He wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "No way, they have no food and grass, so they have to plunder around, but they chose the wrong opponent!"

"In the face of this kind of provocation, the king will definitely send troops. Brother Bu, the king will send troops to Baize, which must be the place where the army gathers. You are Hu Cao, and I am Cang Cao. We will get busy soon!"

His expression was indifferent, and he remained as calm as Bu Jing, even too calm.

After hearing the words, Bu Jing couldn't help but glanced at the other party.

After he came, he also knew about Hu Weiyong's historical experience. He knew that he was once the prime minister of a country, and his political ability and vision were even stronger than Shen Yi and Bu Zhi.

But when he personally experienced the other party's ability to see things in detail, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

have such ability.

In the future, as long as Hu Weiyong learns the lessons from history and stops doing those taboo things, he will definitely become an important minister under King Huai in the future.

……

Sihong, Prince Huai's Mansion.

Pong!
Wang Jing slapped the jade table in front of him heavily, "It's so courageous. Before I went to find them, these two thieves came to the door on their own initiative!"

Baize and Sihong are also connected by waterways, and the news spread quickly.

When Hu Weiyong and Bu Jing knew the situation, the news had already reached Sihong and was sent to Wang Jing.

Shen Yi, Bu Zhi, Zhu Wu and other courtiers also read the news.

Last night, about [-] soldiers quietly crossed the river and raided a village under Changyang Township, Baize County. Half of the hundreds of men and women in the village were killed or injured, and nearly a hundred young and strong were killed.

The officers and soldiers of the Baihusuo who went to support were also ambushed by the local area, and dozens of people were injured.

These enemy soldiers searched for thousands of grains in the village... At first, Wang Jing divided the fields before the great change of the world, and all the people took advantage of this time to rush to plant grains and harvested twice in a row.

Therefore, the people in any village have a lot of grain.

"Your Majesty, Pang Shigu and Hou Jing have already made an alliance. They succeeded this time and looted thousands of shi of grain. I'm afraid they will continue to attack the villages near Baize after they taste the benefits!"

Shen Yi said.

There was a hint of anger on Wang Jing's face. To be honest, even if hundreds of people in a village were all dead, it was just a drop in the bucket for the Huai army today.

At this time, the reorganization of the Huai army has not been completed. If troops are sent at this time, the loss outweighs the gain.

However, sometimes you can't just look at the gains and losses.

If Wang Jing didn't care about the killing of the people under his rule, the morale of the people would be lowered, and every person under his rule would be a source of strength for Qi Shulong.

People are killed and the army is defeated, which will affect the vitality of the entire force.

Although, this effect is very slight.

Wang Jing can't ignore it either.A response must be given.

"Why didn't the thousand households in Baize Water Village notice the enemy troops crossing the river?"

But before dispatching troops, Wang Jing had to clarify this matter first. He set up a thousand-household station for the navy on the bank of the canal outside Bai Zedong Gate.The purpose is to alert the enemy on the opposite side.

Now it seems that this Navy Qianhu Office seems to have no effect at all.

Bu Zhi said: "My lord, the canal is too wide, and a naval army of thousands of households can't block the entire river, especially if the enemy sneaks in at night, it is even more difficult to prevent."

"This situation can only be avoided by setting up ten thousand household offices along the river and separating them along the river!"

He sighed and said: "As a privy envoy, I didn't think about this in advance, which caused a loophole in the river defense. I also ask the king to come down!"

Wang Jing waved his hand and said, "This has nothing to do with you. I ordered the establishment of the Baize Navy Thousand Households. Before that, our army's opponent was Fu Rong from Wuhe, so we were too negligent about the east bank of the canal!"

"I'm going to correct that mistake today!"

There was a hint of murderousness in his voice.

"Here's an order to let Li Jun lead the navy to go north to garrison Baize, and first cut off the canal to prevent the enemy from smuggling and harassing!"

Shen Yi's reminder just now was good.

After Pang Shigu and Hou Jing on the east bank easily plundered thousands of stones of grain, they would definitely not be able to resist sending troops to continue to harass and loot.

The best way to deal with this kind of thing is to directly dispatch the navy to block the canal.

The other party cannot cross the river, so naturally there is no way to plunder.

"Send an order to the Military Intelligence Department to ask Fan Yin to send people across the river to inquire about the news. I want to know all the news about Pang Shigu and Hou Jing!"

Wang Jing kept issuing orders;
The first is to block the canal and do a good job of defense, and then it is to collect intelligence and know ourselves and the enemy.

The last thing to do, of course, is to recruit soldiers and horses, and prepare to use physical means to completely solve this trouble.

Bu Zhi is a privy envoy, but his authority is to be the counselor of the army, and Zhu Wu is in the Ministry of War, in charge of military registration and various military-related affairs.

For example, where are the troops stationed, how many soldiers are there, and how many guards are there.

When mobilizing troops and horses, how much can be mobilized so as not to affect the stability of the place...

and so.

After Wang Jing issued successive orders, Zhu Wu began to get busy, preparing for the dispatch of troops.

 Suddenly I don't know how to write well... I need to adjust the sequelae of Kawen. . .
