Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

Until September 17th.

Lin Yuan went out with the army. This was the first time he attacked an armed force other than the imperial court. This was also a battle of great significance to Lin Yuan. Including Chen Bosong, there were three generals who fought.

Chen Bosong, Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Congrong.

Each of them led an army of 30, and a total of [-] soldiers went out this time.

Lin Yuan was sitting on the carriage—his thighs hadn’t been callused yet, and riding a horse would only make his thighs bloody. Lin Yuan chose the latter between "a man's face" and "don't turn into a duck" ,

Fortunately, according to his current status, no one would laugh at him.

The three generals had to lead troops in the front and had to ride horses. Song Shizhao and Luo Ben were sitting in Lin Yuan's carriage.

The dirt road is not smooth. Although road construction is underway in several places under Lin Yuan's rule, the road they pass by now has obviously not been planned, and the manpower is still too limited.

Lin Yuan still remembers a long time ago saying "there is great power in numbers", so people desperately gave birth to children, plus the saying that many children are blessed, so the population began to explode, because at that time there was a lack of labor and many technical talents, but this It also presents a huge problem.

It is these people who were born in the same era, once they enter old age, the society will also passively enter the aging society.

Employment opportunities for young people will be reduced, and life pressure for the elderly will also increase.

So encouraging population growth is a double-edged sword.

Lin Yuan sighed.

He hasn't found a solution yet.

"I don't know what's going on in Hanyang today." Song Shizhao looked at the news that the spies passed back, which said that Ni Wenjun had turned against him, but they didn't know what the situation between Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun was.

Song Shizhao said: "Ni Wenjun should be able to get what he wants, Xu Shouhui is not many people who can be used, and he is not an outstanding emperor."

At this time, Robben said: "Although Xu Shouhui is not good, he still has four heavenly kings in his hand, Taishi Zou Pusheng. Besides Ni Wenjun, the general also has Zhao Pusheng and Fu Youde. These three are not idiots. Ni Wenjun blatantly rebelled. These three People will naturally fight desperately, and it is still unknown who will win the battle."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "What Guanzhong said makes sense."

After Lin Yuan spoke, Song Shizhao said honestly, "It's because I'm ignorant."

Lin Yuan comforted him: "Don't blame Mr., the ruler is long and the inch is short. If you can know the affairs of the world, you will not be a mortal, but a god."

Song Shizhao lowered his head, looking very ashamed.

After leaving Lin Yuan's territory, the scenery on the roadside changed quickly.

The desolate land was deserted, and people never came back after abandoning their homes. There were still corpses dragged out by wild dogs on the side of the road, and some of them had only skeletons left.

This is how the world is today, and big cities are better. At least there are armed forces in the city, and the big households will not let the bandits enter the city. No matter what, they were united at the time, and the common people can also benefit.

But rural farmers do not have such conditions, no one will protect them, and the bandits need to pay the least price to attack them, so they have a greater chance of being victimized.

Lin Yuan thought of the secret letter Jiang Guang sent him, and knew that Jiang Guang hadn't tampered with the food at this time, so Ni Wenjun is now at a time when his army is strong and his horse is strong, and his spirit is also at his best. Go beat them now, Lin Yuan It is very likely to face the situation of being attacked from the front and back.

The best situation is that when they arrived in Hanyang, the troops of both Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun were in the most exhausted state.

At that time, if they fight again, their own consumption will be minimized.

They've been on the road for nearly two months now.

In ancient times when there were no cars and highways, cavalry had horses to travel, but more soldiers were infantry, and they could only advance on their own two legs. In addition to infantry, there were also logistics soldiers to transport food and grass, and there were also troops accompanying the army. doctors and nurses.

Nursing is a new industry, but there are not many women who are willing to become nurses and receive training.

Because nurses mean that when there is a war, they will also be recruited and go to the battlefield. Although they are in the rear, if they lose, they will not escape, but if they can go back alive, they will be promoted and their monthly salary will be increased. Become more.

Therefore, most of the women who choose to become nurses are alone or from extremely poor families.

The logistics soldiers are more physically strong men. If there is a shortage of troops, they will also become soldiers on the battlefield.

The soldiers are very tired, they have to travel every day, and they have to wear Fanyang hats. Fanyang hats are made of iron and are very heavy. Although they can protect their vitals, they will also bring more burdens to them. In September, Qiuhu Zhengsheng, the sun is strong, especially at noon, so there is no rush during the noon period. Lin Yuan is worried that the soldiers will get dehydrated, so every time he stops to camp, he must first send people to find water sources.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Lin Yuan jumped out of the carriage. Once he stopped marching, the temperature inside the carriage would be higher than that outside. After all, there would still be wind outside.

But Song Shizhao was unwilling to come down. He said that he was old and not afraid of heat.

Lin Yuan didn't force it either, sometimes he didn't know what Song Shizhao was thinking.

It was Robben who told him: "He sweated a lot just now, and the reason why he didn't want to come down is probably because we can smell it when the wind blows."

Lin Yuan: "... Isn't it more smelly in the carriage?"

Robben: "When people get older, sometimes they will be a little..."

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, he suspected that if Song Shizhao was older, he might develop dementia.

It seems that Song Shizhao should find more work in the future. Maintaining frequent mental activities may be effective in preventing Alzheimer's disease?

Xiaobing moved two horses for Lin Yuan and Robben, and they can be human beings by placing them in the open space. The principle is similar to the portable stools they carry when fishing. Xiaobing looked at Lin Yuan with reverent and fanatical eyes, but Now Lin Yuan can be completely regarded as nothing.

Robben went out and walked around, and brought back two cups of tea. Lin Yuan also looked around. The soldiers all took off their fan sun caps, looked for the shade to rest, and sat around chatting and drinking Some water and something to eat. When they set off, they were distributed to a lot of butcher shops. They were chewy, and the more they chewed, the more fragrant they became. Although no spices were used, the taste of the meat itself was enough to conquer their stomachs.

As for Chen Bosong and the others, they rested at the seats further in front. The soldiers they led were cavalry and a small group of infantry with better physical fitness. Whether there are civilians or bandits.

This was supposed to be the job of the scouts, but this time because Lin Yuan went out in person, their reactions were a bit big.

Lin Yuan also tried to persuade him, but they all insisted, so Lin Yuan didn't waste his time on it.

Both Robben and Lin Yuan were sitting on the mat, which was a bit wobbly because the ground was uneven.

Lin Yuan felt like he was sitting in a rocking chair. He said to Robben, "Who do you think will win, Xu Shouhui or Ni Wenjun?"

Robben said seriously: "Xu Shouhui."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Why?"

Robben: "Ni Wenjun's name is not justified, even if he raises troops, the soldiers under him will hardly obey him. In contrast, Xu Shouhui is the emperor. He has great righteousness. Ni Wenjun is not the only general here, and Ni Wenjun is gone, and the others just happen to stand out, not to mention, the proud soldiers must be defeated, and the sad soldiers must win."

It seems that Xu Shouhui is at a disadvantage. Ni Wenjun has a strong army and knows the distribution of troops in Xu Shouhui's hands. It seems that he has a better chance of winning than Xu Shouhui.

Lin Yuan looked in the direction of Hanyang, as if he had seen Hanyang through many obstacles.

He was already thinking about what to do after he entered Hanyang.

Just like what he did in Gaoyou and Taizhou, first break up the original political team, disrupt it, and install his own people.

What to do next is even simpler.

Lin Yuan smiled and shook his head, he also felt a little conceited.

Robben also saw Lin Yuan's smile, and said strangely, "My lord, this is..."

Lin Yuan: "I'm just thinking, maybe one day, I will become a person you can't understand."

Robben: "Why do you say that, my lord?"

Lin Yuan laughed at himself, "It's nothing."

Sometimes he feels that he thinks too much, and if he thinks less, he will feel more relaxed.

The soldiers were lying sprawled on the ground, but even so, they held weapons in their hands. This was a habit brought to them by countless battles. Their sleep would not be very deep. If they felt threatened, they would Even the eyes may not be opened, but the spear or knife is directly stabbed out.

"Dream killing" is very possible on the battlefield. People's spirits are in a state of high tension, especially when their consciousness is not clear enough, instinct will take over the nerve response, and the instinct of survival controls their behavior.

"There are horses ahead!"

"There are flags! They are our own soldiers!"

A small black horse was carrying a small man, and the man was holding a small flag to avoid accidental injury.

He jumped off his horse and strode up to Lin Yuan: "Speak to Nan Bodhisattva! We have encountered a large army and are heading to Hanyang! We also ask Nan Bodhisattva to decide!"

Lin Yuan pursed his lips: "Whose soldiers and horses?"

Man: "Sun character is written on the flag, it should be Sun Deya's soldier."

Lin Yuan: "How many people?"

Man: "Roughly speaking, it should be one hundred thousand."

Now that Sun Deya has replaced Guo Zixing and took over Guo Zixing's power, his personality is completely different from Guo Zixing's, so it's not surprising that he will stare at Hanyang. He is a greedy person, and greedy people will never dislike him The land and power in their hands have increased.

Lin Yuan: "Tell them, let's use his Sun Deya's soldiers to practice, the backup will arrive soon, let me keep them."
