Chapter 1035 Choice(1/3)

 Hanoi County, Dongyuan County.

As a county town surrounded by water and mountains, Dongyuan at this time did not show the momentum to defend the dangerous position.

The walled city built with loess looked a bit dilapidated due to the long-term lack of maintenance and the wars over the past few months.

Many places look like a barren wasteland of loess.

The manors and houses that were originally located near the outskirts of the city had long since disappeared.

Because of the arrival of winter, there is no sound of insects in the dilapidated house, and it is as quiet as a ghost house.

The occasional sightings of foxes, weasels and other animals add a bit of weirdness to the place.

Under the waning sun, which had no warmth at all, the shadow of the house was lengthened, making it look eerie.

"Click"!

There was a dull sound of broken wood.

A dozen figures appeared in the alleys between houses, walking quickly and cautiously, jumping.

After confirming that there was indeed no one in this abandoned residential house, these people found a high place and quietly lay down.

Then we started to look at the Eastern Wall City shrouded in the setting sun.

"Not only did the trees around the city be cut down, but the houses on the edge of the city were not even cleared. It can be seen that these rioters have never thought about how to defend the city."

Someone muttered.

"Always be careful."

The scout leader who was observing carefully did not look back and said:

"In matters of life and death before the battle, the more careful you are, the more chance you have of surviving. Swords and arrows don't have eyes."

"Ahem, boss, I just said that casually."

The speaker stretched his neck and glanced at the city wall, then said:

"Just don't say that there are tens of thousands of rioters in this city? Even if the city gate is not closed, why are there no people guarding the city gate? The city wall has collapsed badly, and you don't want to repair it?"

The scout leader looked at it intently for a while, then smiled:

"Isn't this good? When the sun goes down, let's see if we can sneak into the city through those collapsed openings."

If it were the Wei thieves, they would naturally not dare to be so bold.

But looking at the rioters in the city, there is not even the most basic defense outside the city, which shows how lax it is.

For well-trained elite scouts, as long as they act properly, they may not be unable to climb over the wall.

After making a decision, they found a better-preserved private house. After setting up a warning, they began to drink water and eat dry food, and then rested.

It gets dark early in winter, and soon after the sun sets, a layer of mist appears on the ground, and the sky and the earth suddenly become hazy.

This group of scouts spread out, stepped through the dry grass outside the city, and began to touch the city wall under the dusk.

The process of climbing over the wall was much smoother than expected.

Not only did the rioters not think about repairing the collapsed city wall, they even had no one to guard the gaps.

Or maybe the wall collapsed so badly that they couldn't repair it.

When you climb over the gap in the city wall and enter the city, you can see what seems to be a light in the distance.

This team of scouts bent over and used the female wall of the city wall as cover to keep groping closer. The houses closest to the bottom of the city wall were covered with dust and seemed lifeless.

As I got closer to the houses with exposed lights, I heard shouts, singing, curses, laughter and cries coming from under the cave-like roof.

The shadows refracted by the light looked like living things walking in the cave-like dark alley.

Easily touching the core edge of the enemy, the elite team sent to investigate the situation was a little confused:

How could a person like his opponent have the confidence to refuse a recruitment order from a lord?

"Look inside again and see if there are any other findings..."

The scout captain whispered the order, and more than ten people began to disperse.

After crossing the outer perimeter and arriving under the inner city, the scouts discovered something strange.

Unlike the messy outer city, the inner city not only has its gates tightly closed, but there are actually soldiers on duty on the walls.

Although it didn't look very professional, there were actually people standing under the firelight so late at night, and you could even see them talking and laughing among themselves.

Isn't this an obvious target?

Although I don't know if there are hidden sentries in invisible places, but based on the arrangement of these open sentries and the various actions of the soldiers on duty under the firelight.

Coupled with the outer city and all the things outside the city, the scout captain can easily determine:

Although the rioters, or bandits, in the inner city have initially formed an organization, they still cannot pose a threat to the Liangzhou Army.

However, since there are guards in the inner city and we are not familiar with the environment, it is not easy to continue taking risks and infiltrate. The risk is too great.

Quietly exit the city along the same route, and the team will gather at the original place. After everyone is gathered, they can summarize the situations they have detected and send them to the rear.

Liu Hun was not surprised at all after receiving the news.

He found Han Long:

"Master, thank you for your work."

Han Long nodded and sighed: "I hope they can wake up in time."

During this great purge in Hedong, the Wulin League put forward the slogan "The great chivalrous man serves the country and the people", and it gained quite a reputation.

I came into contact with many rangers, so I searched around and found a few ways to talk to the leaders of the rebels. I sent them the recruitment order and tried my best to persuade them to surrender as soon as possible.

This time, it is the deadline set by the king.

Obviously, Junhou no longer wants to waste time on the troubled people in Dongyuan.

Liu Hun nodded, but judging from the news sent back by the scouts, he had given up hope.

"Then I'll go back and organize the army first."

The rioters in the inner city of Dongyuan were completely unaware that less than a hundred miles away, a large army was already making final preparations.

In other words, they never expected that a certain monarch who had been admiring the scenery on the bank of the river suddenly set his sights on one of the easternmost counties in Hedong County.

Liu Asi, the leader of the rebellion in Dongyuan City, got up with the help of his maid only after three o'clock in the day.

He was originally a low-level official in the Tuntian Kefu. When the news came that Bingzhou was attacked by Shu captives, all the Tuntian Kefu in Hedong counties were mobilized.

It's just that the Shu captives came so quickly, beyond everyone's expectation.

Liu Asi was originally assigned to send a group of farmers to Anyi to serve as guards. Unexpectedly, before he had even reached the halfway point, he received news that the Shu captives had broken through the Guanjuejin Valley and headed straight for the hinterland of Hedong.

At that time, the news in Hedong changed three times a day, and people were panicked.

Before Liu Asi could lead his men any further, the Shu captives had already arrived at Anyi City.

Yes, this time, even if the road to Anyi is completely cut off.

Liu Asi, as a minor official in the farming community, often dealt with the farming community and was well aware of the suffering of the farming community at the bottom.

Over the years, farmers have either fled into the mountains or settled in the towns and started rebellions, and various incidents have occurred one after another.

If it hadn't been for the suppression of the Wei army, there would have been trouble in Hedong, a land with heavy farming operations, in recent years.

In Liu Asi's view, when the Shu captives entered Hedong, it was like someone pouring a bucket of oil on dry firewood that was sprouting sparks everywhere.

If I just lead these people back like this, as long as the news spreads that the Shu captives have entered Hedong, their heads may be cut off in the middle of the night before they can return to Dongyuan.

And even if he can return to Dongyuan safely, it is still unknown whether he will be accused of failing to rescue because he did not arrive at Anyi in time.

After coming to this conclusion, Liu Asi gritted his teeth and took the plunge. He called everyone together.

He only said that Anyi had been occupied by Shu captives, and if he and his people failed to rescue him, they might be severely punished according to the law.

But if we continue to move forward, we are afraid that we will also die when we reach Anyi.

Although the Tuntian Hakka Mansion can barely be regarded as a semi-military management, it is not even the slightest bit worse than a real garrison.

The garrisons in Bingzhou and Hedong could not stop the Shu captives. How could people like myself be the opponents of the Shu captives?

Under Liu Asi's half-truths, half-truths, and even threats and threats, thousands of farmers just realized that they had no way out.

They were always oppressed in Japan, but under such circumstances, Liu Asi took the opportunity to raise his arms and the farmers immediately rebelled.

They robbed the nearest small county town and then found a mountain swamp as a temporary hiding place.

The subsequent development of the situation in Hedong was just as Liu Asi expected.

No, the chaos in Hedong is more violent than Liu Asi thought.

When the Shu captives entered the country, civil strife broke out. The government surrendered and others fled. Who would remember Liu Asi and the others?

Taking advantage of the chaos, Liu Asi led the campers back to Dongyuan, where he was familiar, and captured the county seat easily.

The semi-military management of the garrison is naturally inferior to the regular garrison, but it has many advantages over the unorganized mob.

With a place to settle down, the surrounding rebels were either annexed by Liu Asi or voluntarily surrendered. At one time, more than 30,000 rebels gathered in Dongyuan City.
To be continued...
