After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

In addition, Gao Lingying mobilized 1 auxiliary troops from Sihe County with the cooperation of the county magistrate Dianwen, and [-] young civilians with the assistance of the county magistrate Ma Dai...

Gao Ling should think that he has [-] elite soldiers, [-] auxiliary soldiers, and [-] civilians. With this force to defend a county, if the defense is effective and the food is sufficient, it is still okay for him to defend it for a month... he can complete the main task. Task!

To be honest, because the county magistrate Ma Dai took in the surrounding people who were taking refuge, the situation in Sihe County was better than he imagined. There were more young men who could defend the city. Maybe he could hold off the rebels and defend the county seat?

At this time, it can be seen that Sihe County has become a large-scale project site, and the expression on everyone's face is no longer one of despair.

Because the arrival of Gao Lingying and Liu He brought confidence to the people of Sihe County! ——When the imperial army comes, they will be saved. Although this is only the vanguard, not the army, there is hope, right?

Since ancient times, the most fearful thing when defending a city is despair!

All the houses near the east gate were demolished, and all the people moved to the north city to live. Those who refused to leave were killed on the spot... but fortunately there were not many who refused to move.

Because most of the people living in the north of the city were powerful families in Xihe County, their families had long fled to the county, so Gao Lingying took the initiative to expropriate their houses.

Even if these people left, they would still have servants from the side clan to look after their homes, but when the Phoenix Guard put the knife on their necks, no one said anything. After all, it is not worth fighting for other people's things.

In addition to the houses of the big families in the city used to house the people, the granaries they clung to were also opened by Gao Lingying, and together they had 15 shi of grain...

Ma Dai, a small county magistrate, would not dare to do all this, but Gao Ling should, because he represents Shen Qingjun, and Shen Qingjun represents the court.

Moreover, after Gao Lingying learned about the special layout of Sihe County, he came up with the idea that maybe Sihe County could really be saved?

Because the terrain of Sihe County is low in the east and high in the west, with two rivers in the north and south, there are only two city gates in Sihe County and one main street connecting the east and west...

With food, people, and geographical advantages, Gao Lingying, Shen Qingjun's subordinate counselor, was not willing to just hold back the rebel army.

And what we can see now is that whether they are the original residents of Sihe County or the people who fled in, the young and strong among them are all treated equally and all are expropriated.

Some of these people are reinforcing the east city wall, while others are building a new city wall in the center of Sihe County. At this time, an earth wall that spans the east and west has already taken shape!

Gao Lingying walked around the earth wall construction site in the city twice before he met the county captain Dianwen coming.

He is also on patrol. Inspecting the city walls and important facilities in the city day and night and monitoring the movements of the bandits are his main tasks now.

Seeing Gao Lingying, Dianwen cupped his fists and saluted, and then asked about the worries in his heart these past few days:

"Consultant Gao, as far as I know, Liu Jinguang's army of thieves has more than 5 elite and veteran thieves. The number of people they have hijacked now totals hundreds of thousands, and in our Sihe County, except for the staff officers, you brought less than one In addition to the thousands of elite soldiers, even including the government officials and police officers, there are only less than two thousand county soldiers who cannot be reused.

The bandits number in the hundreds of thousands. Our number, including the requisitioned young and strong people, is only over 1000, and many of the young and strong people have never even touched a knife before...

<divclass="contentadv">Can we really hold on in the face of the menacing thieves?Can we hold on until Governor Shen arrives? "

Gao Lingying also returned a salute and said: "Dianxian Lieutenant, don't worry. Although Liu Jinguang's bandit army has hundreds of thousands, just like Dianxian Lieutenant, the real red scarf thieves are only tens of thousands, and the others are just bandits." They are just the people they are holding hostage, and they don’t even have any iron weapons in their hands!

In comparison, our young and strong people still have knives and guns. It is good for these people to be able to hold a stick as a weapon, but they cannot call soldiers?Or not? "

"Besides, even if these hundreds of thousands are red scarf thieves, it doesn't matter. They have no armor. These people are not even as threatening as the powerful tribes. They can be destroyed by just sending out some troops!"

"They were able to capture a county in three days only because of their despicable methods. Lieutenant Dian County does not need to worry, I will not be threatened by the thieves, and my lord will bear all the measures taken by the thieves in Sihe County... …”

When a war comes, no matter how strong the rebel army is and whether Sihe County can be defended or not, Gao Lingying will belittle the rebel army and insist that it can be defended. This is called inspiring and gives people the belief that they will win!

"The biggest danger of the rogue bandits is that they can move around. It should be noted that it is easy to defeat an army composed of refugees, but it is difficult to exterminate them! Hundreds of thousands of people are scattered in all directions, and they cannot be killed or captured. If they are scattered, the harm will be even greater, because my family The Lord loves the people and cannot bear the thought of bandits wandering around to harm the people again, so he plans to bring them all into the county and catch them all once and for all."

"My lord once said that the rogue bandits are not strong enough to fight. What is difficult is to catch them all. If the ambitious ones escape, given the current situation in the north, it will not be difficult to create another Liu Jinguang, and it will be easy to recreate a Zhang Yuancheng..."

"Besides, Lieutenant Dian, look at the earth wall we are building now. It will definitely become a burial place for the rebels..." He pointed to the earth wall in front of him and said.

"Why should Dianxian Lieutenant be unfounded? Governor Shen is far-sighted and Staff Officer Gao is far-sighted. This plan will definitely succeed." Magistrate Ma, who was following Gao Lingying, flattered him.

No matter what, the arrival of Gao Lingying and his entourage changed his fate. He had a good impression of Shen Qingjun, so naturally he fully supported Gao Lingying's actions.

……

Jade City, Beichen Palace,

Emperor Shaowu finally decided not to marry or trade with Donghu!What made him change his original idea of ​​procrastination and make this decision was

It's because he saw Dong Hu's forbearance and ambition from Bu Luo Jin's flexible attitude!I also realized that the impact of the late spring cold on Donghu should be greater than I thought.

So much so that Yelu Zaku took the initiative to show his favor to the Wei Dynasty, so much so that King Zuoxian of Donghu failed to intimidate and tried to please, so he decided to refuse peace negotiations with Donghu!

Moreover, Li Chen surpassed his elder brother Li Xian to become the crown prince, and he also needed to show his merits to convince the public. Therefore, in order to give Li Chen prestige, Dong Hu had to fight.

Emperor Shao Wu made the final decision at the next Xiaochao meeting and refused to negotiate with Donghu. After he made his decision, no ministers objected. Even Yang Lantao shut his mouth. This is the prestige of the founding emperor!

Before he made a decision, the ministers could express their opinions and make noises, but as soon as he made a decision, no one would have any objections. Everyone, regardless of whether they originally agreed or opposed it, now followed Emperor Shao Wu's lead.
