I’m The King

Chapter 763: : Drum horns continue to sound sharp (35)

Betraying a country that he has served for decades and worked hard for it is a painful decision process for Zhou Yuan. Although he agreed to Cao Tianci earlier, deep down, it was not without struggling to imitate. On the one hand is the court that he once loyal to, and on the other is the survival of the full house of children and grandchildren. In the past, Zhou Yuan did not have such a mood. He himself felt that he was a great figure who could give up his small family for everyone, but when he removed all official posts, Back to Fenzhou’s hometown, after getting along for a while, the weakest depths in my heart were finally magnified infinitely, especially the call of those grandchildren’s milky grandpas, it almost made his heart melt. .

Looking at those little faces with pink makeup and jade, Zhou Yuan could not bear that they were struggling to survive at the bottom with a muddy face, especially in the end, the tall iron cavalry brazenly stepped into Tianhe County, and the soldiers were on the front line. When he was in Jicheng, he finally made the final decision, left Fenzhou, and went to Hetao to win the last part of his life for his children and grandchildren.

He had completely given up his illusions about Jicheng now, no matter how Zhou Yu Tanfeng struggled, he would not be able to support Dayan, who was already leaning forward.

In addition to his children and grandchildren in the western Liaoning with him this time, there are also the old boatmen and family members of the entire shipyard. The four large sea ships built in the past two years are fully packed. After being far from the coast of Fenzhou, there are four seas. The ship converged at the pre-determined place, and went straight to the west of Liaoning. Kou Shuguang had already returned to take care of the corresponding affairs. Once the ship arrived at the destination, these shipmen would be able to devote themselves to the new work, and Zhou Yuan, naturally there would be someone Greet him to Jishi City.

In this matter, the Supervision Institute has been operating for more than two years, and today it finally bears fruitful results, which makes everyone in the Supervision Institute. They are all beaming.

Yuyang, Kongde is occupying Anlu and marching into Xinhui. After driving the Zhengdong Army into the Luliang Mountain all the way, trouble also came. The first is the rear, Anlu mining area, where the miners are making trouble in two days, and the operation of the entire mining area has almost come to a halt.

In Comte's mind, these miners are restless guys organized by slaves, criminals, and unemployed refugees. They just need to give them a bite of food. You can squeeze their labor to your heart's content, dig out more ore for yourself, and train more steel, but obviously, things are not as simple as he thought. After he took control of Anlu, the miners here The riots never stopped.

After some investigation, Comte realized that after Zhengdong Mansion ruled this area, it had given the miners generous wages and paid according to their work. The more you do, the more you get, which greatly stimulates these miners. It also made the miners here the most responsible when the Eastern Army took control of Anlu. As long as you are willing to use your strength, you can make more money, and if you have money, who will worry about having trouble? ? Ordinary people, after all, as long as they have a bite of food, they are satisfied. What's more, the remuneration given by the Eastern Army. It is extremely rich, and there are some miners in the past two years. I have saved a lot of money, and I was about to work for another year or two, so I left this place, went to Hetao, and bought over one hundred and eighty acres of land over there to live and work in peace and contentment! I heard those soldiers of the Eastern Army who used to be on duty here often talk about the place in the Loop. The land there is so cheap that it used to be free of charge as long as you are willing to go. Now, although it’s not possible, you have to I have collected money, but with the money to buy 100 acres of land there, I can buy up to 4 or 5 acres in the mainland. What is the difference between this and free delivery?

However, before the dream woke up, Sun De came, and the East Army retreated. After Comte came, everything returned to the same way as before. The payment according to work was gone, and the little possessions saved before were also lost. Those Yan Army soldiers were snatched away, everything returned to the original point, two years of hard work was wasted, and all the miners were full of anger, resentment, and hostility.

After being passive and sabotaging the tools, and then the defenders who guarded here unceremoniously raised the butcher knife, the blood irritated all the miners. Under the sway of the caring people, armed resistance began in the huge mining area. The miners held hands. Some were hammers and drills. The Yan army stationed here caught off guard suffered a heavy blow. Thousands of guards were scattered in the huge mining area, just like a wave in the sea, and it has not yet emerged. The splash was swallowed mercilessly.

Comte, who was fighting in Xinhui with Ye Zhen, the main force of the East Army, was shocked when he heard the news. He had to stop the offensive and mobilize the army to suppress the rebellion, but when he returned, the rebellious miners had disappeared without a trace. Reluctantly discovered that he had no other way except to appease the remaining miners, because the mining area had to be mined, he also needed more iron ore and copper ore to build weapons, and he couldn't kill all these miners. After killing a few family members who were said to be rebels, Comte had to process money for the miners and put his efforts to appease them, and stationed thousands of troops here to prevent the rebellion from happening again.

But in this way, he was no longer able to organize a large-scale attack on Ye Zhen. The offensive and defensive momentum was easy to change. Ye Zhen, who had crossed Luliang Mountain, merged with Naha and Zeng Xianyi’s army and launched a large-scale attack towards the new club Counterattack.

Between ten days and days, Comte was forced to abandon the new club and retreat to Anlu, but this was already Comte's bottom line. He must guard Anlu and guard this mining area.

This time, it was already mid-July, that is, at this time, the order from Jicheng arrived, abandoning Anlu, the whole army returned to aid Tianhe County, returned to Jicheng, and sent Gaoyuan back to Hejian.

With this paper order, Kong De wanted to cry without tears. He launched an offensive from Yuyang and paid the price of thousands of people to achieve the current results. But now, with the order, the price he paid before will be reduced. Nothing exists.

Is it so easy to retreat, and to retreat before the two armies confront each other? Ye Zhen on the opposite side would let him retreat easily?

And when Kong De received the order from Jicheng, Niu Ben also stood in front of Ye Zhen, and at the same time, another person beyond Ye Zhen's expectation also came to his camp. The person from here was unexpectedly the special envoy of General Zhao Jun Zhou Changshou, the former general of the city, Zhao Guang.

"I understand what the governor means." Ye Zhen laughed and ran towards Niu: "Someone sent a pillow when I wanted to fall asleep, General Niu, Zhou Changshou also sent someone to me, hahaha! You! Let's go and rest first. I will deal with this General Zhao Guangzhao first, but see what Zhou Changshou means."

Niu Ben smiled and left.

Yan and Zhao always oppose each other. Relying on its strong national strength, Zhao has always played the role of bullying Yan. In the past few years, the two countries have never broken off in big and small battles. Until now, frictions between the two sides still occur from time to time. What's more, in Dai County, there are six thousand infantry cavalry who are assisting Zhao Yong and Zhao Qi in a vicious fight. The two sides fought like a saw in Dai County, and half of Dai County has been beaten to ruins.

When Zhao Guang walked into Ye Zhen’s big account, his mood was quite complicated. A few years ago, when he was the leader of the city, Gao Yuan was just a small county lieutenant. With the passage of time, the status of the two sides has now differed greatly. Up. Even in front of a member of the opposing party's generals, you have to obey the subordinates' salute.

And he was once a prisoner of the Fufeng Army, the predecessor of the Zhengdong Army.

The little character of the year has already jumped over the dragon gate and whizzed the world, but he still stayed in place, adjusted to and fro, and finally did not make any further progress. Zhao Guang knew that he had opposed Zhao Qi back then and was regarded by Zhao Qi. It's a thorn in the eye, now that Zhao Qi is in power, how can he have his own early days? The only opportunity to get ahead is to make Zhou Changshou rise up and fight against Zhao Qi. This is also when Zhou Changshou proposed to take advantage of this opportunity to seize Yuyang. Reasons for strong support.

"General Zhao, please sit down. I don't know what is important for General Zhao to come to our barracks this time?" Ye Zhen politely asked Zhao Guang to sit down and serve tea, but he also took the tiger case and sat down. Zhao Guang's presence shows that the two sides are now only an equal relationship. When you come, you are a guest. I have my own way of hospitality.

Ye Zhen was born in Ye Mansion, and he followed Ye Tiannan to the north and south since he was a child. In etiquette, he will always be that kind of aristocratic style. Even if you will be divided into pieces in the next moment, he can still laugh and talk with you in the last moment. The etiquette is not bad at all.

After his cover, Zhao Guang felt like a spring breeze, and most of the tension in his heart was relieved.

"Zhao came here by the order of General Zhou Changshou Zhou to come and discuss a major issue with General Ye." Zhao Guang pondered for a moment, "General Ye, you and I are both warriors, so I won't just scribble around. It's straight to the point. The meaning of the Gaodu Governor sweeping the country of Yan is already known to passers-by. Now the country of Yan can fight~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There are not many soldiers who dare to fight, Langya Hu Yanchao, and now your army is attacking Wei Shanguan has not been won for more than a month. It can be seen that Hu Yanchao’s combat power is indeed extraordinary. In the case of Yuyang’s Kong De, General Ye has fought with him for more than a month. There will be victories and losses, so naturally it is not allowed. Zhao added that there is only the new army of Jicheng Zhou Yu left, and the rest are not worth mentioning."

"Is it possible that General Zhao came here and wanted to clean up Comte with me?"

"General Ye is very powerful, and I can tell you what I came here with just a few words. Comte's army has a total of more than 50,000 people. He has fought with General Ye for more than a month and lost thousands. Now the soldiers who can fight are more than 30,000. Zhou The general intends to help your ministry and wiped out Comte’s last army in Yuyang County, making it impossible for them to return to Jicheng. I think this will be of great help to the Gaodu’s great cause, right?” Zhao Guang smiled. Tao.

Ye Zhen nodded slightly, "What General Zhao said is indeed good, but I also know that there is no reason to lose pie in this sky, and I do not hide it from General Zhao. With my strength, it is really not enough to swallow the hole. Zhou General Changshou is willing to help us, what does he want?"

"General Zhou doesn't want much, he only needs Yuyang. Moreover, we can still assign Anlu to you. General Zhou also knows that Anlu Iron Mine is very important to the Governor." Zhao Guangding To Ye Zhen, said. (To be continued)
