The Evolution of the Three Kingdoms Volume Chapter 82 Attacking Far Away

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xia Houyuan is now resorting to unconventional means.

    He led his troops to harass Dingying for several days. Although it made Zhao Yun's atmosphere tense, Xia Houyuan himself was also very angry.

    It was easy to say at the beginning, but it goes without saying that there was burning, killing and looting along the way, which harmed a lot of crops.  But it soon attracted Zhao Yun's attention. Every time no matter where he went, not long after he started to attack, he was quickly found by the opponent's light infantry and quickly chased him.  Xia Houyuan couldn't figure out how the other party's news spread so quickly. It was like being trapped in a dragnet.

    Although the reinforcements sent by the opponent each time were very small, Xia Houyuan only brought a hundred cavalry and divided them into ten groups to harass. He himself did not dare to let the opponent get involved. Against Zhao Yun's brave and stubborn crossbowmen, Xia Houyuan  I still have lingering fears.

    Such a stick-and-break tactic can drag down the opponent's infantry, but the cavalry is also very miserable.  There were almost no results.  Xia Houyuan brought back the sacred valley leaves and vines from the other party's fields in his busy schedule.  When I went back to look for it, I found that it was not a divine valley. It was just a kind of wild vegetable with a pretty good taste. It tasted sweet and tasted pretty good. But how could something like this light seedling leaf be worth seven per mu?  Eight hundred kilograms of divine valley. God knows what the so-called divine valley is.

    Xia Houyuan naturally didn¡¯t know that it actually dragged away the seedlings in the sweet potato field.  This kind of thing cannot be planted, and cannot be eaten to fill the stomach. Of course it is of no use. At most, it only harms others and does not benefit oneself.  You really can't blame him for this. Even if he has indeed seen crops in the field, in this era, he has never seen tuber plants like potatoes and sweet potatoes, so he can only make this kind of buying caskets for pearls.  Something happened.

    Xia Houyuan is certainly not satisfied with such results.  What kind of situation could such continuous small-scale harassment lead to?  At most, it was just a waste of manpower and material resources for Li Zhe. For Xia Houyuan, who was eager to make meritorious deeds, it was not enough to satisfy his hatred.  The last time Runan County was defeated, Zhao Yun forced his infantry to march all the way to Yingchuan. Was he still holding fire in his heart?

    "Wenda! Are you sure your information is accurate! This time I put all my money on the line, but I must get a big harvest. Otherwise, I will be sorry for all the hard work I have put in, and I will definitely be severely reprimanded by the Prime Minister after I go back." Riding on the horse, Xia Houyuan said to  He asked the general beside him with a very serious expression.

    The general named Wenda raised his hands on his horse and said:

    "General Miaocai! Don't worry! I, Li Tong, have been in Runan County for more than ten years and have a deep foundation. Even Liu Xuande can't do anything to me. If it weren't for Li Zhe, who used the masses to defeat the few, he led the militia to burn  Without my stronghold, how could he control Runan so securely? Even now, Runan also has many of my brothers." This general named Wenda, named Li Tong, is  A native of Pingchun, Jiangxia County.  But he is a well-known ranger in Jiangxia and Runan counties, a figure at the level of a gangster.  He had countless brothers who took advantage of the war to occupy Langling County in Runan for several years. They were recruited by Cao Cao and made the captain of Yang'an.

    During the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei both sent people to win over him, but Li Tong rejected them one by one. He even beheaded the envoys sent by Yuan Shao and presented the seals and ribbons to Cao Cao.

    Such an old man in the world is naturally at home in a war-torn place like Runan. He has many mountaintops under his command. The Wubao bandits in the entire western and southern parts of Runan once relied on him as their leader.  Unexpectedly, Li Zhe had just occupied Runan, so he sent Su Wu and led tens of thousands of militiamen to push him back. He fled Runan in despair and defected to Cao Cao.  At this time, this man thought he was leading the party and came back to take revenge, but it turned out that a real local snake came back.

    The plan of Xia Houyuan and the two of them was to make a desperate move, with one person and three horses, gathering 800 of their most elite cavalry, abandoning logistics, and rushing for hundreds of miles straight to Li Zhe's indeedshan mining area in Langling County.

    Li Tong learned from the information gathered by his lurking brothers that there are countless workers digging coal and mining here every day in Queshan. They work in full swing and there are militiamen stationed there. It is very lively. It must be a Li Zhe place.  A place that cannot be trusted.  That's why Xia Houyuan came up with such a vicious plan to attack Queshan!

    Xia Houyuan loved the trick of running thousands of miles all his life. He was already familiar with it, and his soldiers were not surprised. They immediately agreed to Li Tong's proposal, but it was really tiring to play this trick.  people!

    The cavalry of this era only had one-sided stirrups, and did not yet have high-bridge saddles or horseshoes. Riding on a horse for long-distance raids was not only a long-term torture for people, but the impact on the life of the war horse cannot be ignored.  The cavalrymen had to clamp the horse's belly as hard as they could and could not relax at all times, otherwise they would fall off the horse accidentally, and there would be no comfort at all.

    And one person and three horsesIn the carriage, one horse carries people, one horse carries materials and weapons such as horse materials, and the other horse must constantly provide transfers, otherwise, the horses will not be able to hold on.

    Just like that, it was a difficult march.

    Under the leadership of Li Tong, a local snake, Cao Jun always followed mountain trails, walking in hills and valleys. The journey was rugged and bumpy, going to places that ordinary people would never imagine.  It is really an extremely dangerous and tiring thing.  But Xia Houyuan and Li Tong were both fierce men eager for revenge and determined, gritting their teeth and persisting.

    ¡­¡­

    On Li Zhe's side, Zhao Yun was still advancing towards Lin County. In Dingying, tens of thousands of militiamen were still busy building camps and establishing communication systems, looking for Xia Houyuan and others who had disappeared long ago.

    Although it was a lot of trouble, this activity was not in vain. It was of great benefit to Li Zhe's military system construction. At the very least, it was equivalent to a successful military exercise.

    Hundreds of miles away, in the hilly areas of Runan's hinterland, is the Chuishan Mining Area in the north of Langling County.  Militiamen and miners are still working tirelessly.

    In this era, if every time you work, you can see tangible benefits in your hands, it will be a great temptation for ordinary people.  The work point system has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of miners. Even the extremely harsh working conditions in Li Zhe's opinion cannot stop the miners from pursuing their dream of a happy life!

    Although it is spring plowing and Li Zhe is very busy, the work here - coal, which is the food of the entire industry, has not been greatly affected, and the construction site is still busy.  The miners here are changing from farmers to professional working class.

    The leader of Queshan Mining Area is Liao Hua. He is a rich man among the old generals of the Yellow Turban Army. He can read and calculate accounts, has been a bookkeeper, and can lead troops in war. He is a rare person who can manage an army when Li Zhe sits down. Therefore, he was chosen by Li Zhe.  Zhe entrusted him with important tasks and came here to take charge.

    At this time, he was in the watchtower of the camp built on the mountain, looking at the busy scene below, feeling relieved, but suddenly a hint of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
