Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 162 Going out of the mountain to Yuzhang City

Through Teng Huxiong's introduction, Zhu Wei also knew the general environment of the road to Yuzhang City after crossing Zhongling Mountain and the distribution of surrounding villages.

Teng Huxiong and Teng Yuyan, as locals, can naturally lead Zhu Wei's army out on the mountain closest to Yuzhang City. In this way, the distance from Yuzhang City is less than [-] miles away, and the forced march can reach them in one day. .

And the road to Yuzhang City after leaving the mountain is smooth, there is no need to build bridges and pave roads, but it will pass through two villages.

However, this is also just right, Zhu Wei's 3000 soldiers and more than [-] strong mountain people from Zhongling Mountain can temporarily settle in these two villages, and then go straight to Yuzhang City after recharging their energy.

After that, everything went smoothly. Zhu Wei led more than 1000 Shanyue mountain people to form an army, crossed Zhongling Mountain, and appeared on the southeast mountain side of Yuzhang City, where there was no defense.

Of course, through his own game system map, Zhu Wei can also know the battle where Wang Yuyan's army attracted Ruo Rong's main force to the Yuzhang River. Know the situation of Yuzhang City clearly.

Today's Yuzhang City only has three thousand Buddhist soldiers and four or five thousand Dharma Protectors to guard it, which can be regarded as extremely empty.

At the same time, Ruo Rong never expected that Zhu Wei might sneak attack Yuzhang City, so the city gate of Yuzhang City still opens at [-] o'clock in the morning and closes at [-] o'clock in the evening.

Zhu Wei also found that many people sent a large amount of supplies and manpower to Yuzhang City every day, so Zhu Wei thought about it and felt that this was another opportunity that could be used.

Zhu Wei still didn't plan to storm Yuzhang City, so he came up with a tactic of pretending to be Ruo Rong's Dharma Guardians to attack Yuzhang City Gate, and then lead the army into Yuzhang.

So almost fifty miles away from Yuzhang City, the second day after Wang Yuyan sent troops to attack Ruorong Lu Camp at night for the first time, Zhu Wei led his soldiers out of Zhongling Mountain and marched quickly towards Yuzhang City.

This time Zhu Wei led his troops on a trip, so naturally he would not easily expose his marching traces.

All the people encountered along the way were arrested and coerced into the team to prevent them from revealing the traces of Zhu Wei's army when they went back.

The more than 1 mountain soldiers brought by Zhu Wei sent out at least more than 1000 scouts, divided into more than a hundred teams, and scattered around the team to patrol first.

They first screened out the people who might appear around the army, and then when Zhu Wei's army was out, they would still send patrols to patrol around, so as not to miss anything.

Speaking of which, Zu Lang's Mountain Yue soldiers are quite experienced in this area. When they went out to attack and loot in the past, they often marched covertly so as not to expose their traces and let the looting target run away.

What's more, there is Zhu Wei's Three Kingdoms game system map as the final check, so that all hostile Ruo Rong Buddhist soldiers and believers can be found, so that it can basically ensure that Zhu Wei's army will not be easily found.

Before that, Zhu Wei's army in Poyang would expose their traces, and let the people in the local counties and villages find out that on the one hand, the journey was long, and it was impossible that there were no traces exposed at all, and on the other hand, it was also the traces that Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan deliberately exposed. Just to attract Ruo Rong's attention.

But now that Zhu Wei's army is going all the way out of the mountain, it will never let Yuzhang City get any news in advance.

Then on the first day after leaving the mountain, Zhu Wei's army settled in the first village mentioned by Teng Huxiong. More than 1 mountain Yue soldiers and Zhongling mountain militiamen surrounded the whole village tightly, and surrounded hundreds of households in the village. Everyone is under strict control.

This area is only twenty miles away from Yuzhang City, and it can be regarded as the core area under Ruo Rong's control. Naturally, the villagers here are also Buddhist believers. Wei didn't dare to underestimate these seemingly ordinary villagers, whether something would happen.

According to Teng Huxiong, the ordinary people who did not believe in Buddhism in Yuzhang City and the surrounding counties under the control of Ruo Rong have all disappeared. This is why the mountain people in Zhongling Mountain came out of the mountain before, but found that many familiar people were missing. There are many more strangers in many villages.

The fanatical Buddhist believers who followed Ruo Rong all the way from Xiapi, Xuzhou, were placed by Ruo Rong as missionary elders in various counties and townships under his control. Naturally, these senior and fanatical Buddhist believers became Ruo Rong's control local grassroots forces.

While spreading Buddhism, these fanatical Buddhist believers will also find pagans who do not believe in Buddhism, and false believers who falsely believe in Buddha, and eliminate these people locally, or turn them into Ruo Rong to build Buddhist temples and Buddha statues Such slave labor.

After this screening, the territory under Ruo Rong's control, regardless of whether all Buddhist believers are sincerely willing to follow Ruo Rong, but their belief in Buddhism is true.

If these villagers know that Zhu Wei is here to attack Yuzhang City, I am afraid that these villagers who are usually brainwashed will really go to Yuzhang City to report the letter and secretly cause trouble for Zhu Wei.

At least until Zhu Wei destroys Ruo Rong, the Buddhist believers in these places are really not easy to provoke for the time being. After Ruo Rong is destroyed, then these local Buddhist believers can be trained and guided to become Zhu Wei's obedient citizens .

In fact, if Buddhist believers do not become crazy religious warriors, they will be easy to manage under the brainwashing of the Buddhist concept of obedience in this life and enjoyment in the next life, and become obedient citizens under the control of the ruler.

This is also the reason why some dynasties in later generations will promote the development of Buddhism, because the ideas promoted by Buddhism can help the officials appease the hearts of the people, so that the officials can better rule the hearts of the people.

So Zhu Wei unceremoniously controlled all the people in the village, locked them in the ancestral hall of the village and restrained them, but politely provided them with food and drinking water, and allowed them to pray and meditate in the ancestral hall.

This is also the territory under Zhu Wei's control in the future. Zhu Wei naturally restrained his Jing County Shanyue soldiers and Zhongling mountain people, forbidding them to destroy or loot in the village, and even not allowing them to enter the villagers' homes at will.

Although these mountain soldiers and mountain people have not been subject to too many military regulations, and they must have made some small moves when they first searched and arrested the people in the village, at least they still maintained the stability of the entire village.

That night, although Zhu Wei led his troops to settle in this village, he basically let his soldiers camp outside the villagers' houses, and even he himself would not stay at the homes of rich households in the village.

Zhu Wei felt that his soldiers might not be able to achieve the state of "not demolishing houses to death from freezing, and not plundering to death from starvation", but he would try his best to restrain military discipline and promote the idea of ​​loving and protecting the people in the army, at least not like this year. Many so-called officers and soldiers became officials and thieves when they arrived in the local area.

The Shanyue soldiers under Zhu Wei's command were actually bandits. If Zhu Wei didn't restrain them, the village would have been ransacked by these Shanyue soldiers.

But the more this is the case, the more Zhu Wei must strictly restrain him, set an example, and then let Pang Yan and Zu Lang personally supervise.

Only in this way can these Shanyue soldiers be convinced, and they dare not act against orders in private, and gradually change their old habits of looting places...
