Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Shi was not fond of fighting. After breaking up the army, he turned around and went in another direction.

At this time, Wang Duncai, who was in Hefei, saw Xizuo and received information from Jiankang.

Wang Dun roared angrily and smashed everything in the house angrily, "Sima Rui, you shameless and incompetent person!"

Why, why would you rather give Jiangnan to Zhao Hanzhang than take a step back from him and kill the troublemaker Liu Wei to calm his anger?

Wang Dun felt that King Langya was extremely stupid, but he couldn't help but resent Director Wang. He was clearly capable of helping him in Jiankang, which made the whole Wang family go further, but he was like a sheep and would rather help King Langya who was jealous of him. help him.

After Wang Dun was angry, he quickly calmed down and asked Xizuo, "How many people are there in the Zhao family's army crossing the river?"

"When I leave, there will be one hundred thousand troops ashore, but about half of the people on the other side have not yet crossed, so it is estimated to be around two hundred thousand."

As for how high or low they are, they don't know.

Wang Dun asked someone to bring the map. Standing in front of the map, his brain automatically replaced the territory belonging to King Langya on the map with the symbol of Zhao Hanzhang, thinking about how much chance he would have of winning if he fought according to the original plan. Jiankang, take Yangzhou.

After thinking over and over again and overturning one strategy after another, Wang Dun couldn't help but bang his fist on the table and said angrily: "Zu Ti, Zu Ti, he prevented me from taking back Yangzhou."

If another person were to lead the army, he might still have a chance to fight Zhao Hanzhang, but Zu Ti, his chances of winning were greatly reduced.

No matter in the original history or now, he was very afraid of Zu Ti. Historically, he waited for Zu Ti's death before he dared to raise troops to rebel, because he knew that after Zu Ti's death, the entire Jin Dynasty would be in a state of military disarray. No one in the world is his opponent.

But now, Zu Ti is still alive and well, and his power is relatively weak. This time he raised the army, it was just a rush, and he had no choice but to do it.

Although Wang Dun was in ruins, he still said resolutely: "Recruit troops, raise food and grass, and let's go south to Guangzhou!"

The staff were shocked and said quickly: "But Yuzhang County is now controlled by Wang Xuan and Dai Yuan. We are afraid that we will not be able to survive."

"Then continue the fight," Wang Dun said: "Zu Ti's top priority is to take over the Jiankang area and take over King Langya's power. He won't move so quickly. We have at least ten days to transfer."

He said: "We will capture Yuzhang within ten days, occupy Guangzhou and fight against the north."

Guangzhou is a land of barbarians. Although it does not have the natural danger of the Yangtze River like Jiangnan, the geographical and cultural environment is more complex. It is not easy to survive there, and it is even harder to rule.

The staff can already think of the challenges Wang Dun will face after arriving in Guangzhou, as well as the confrontation and crusade from several forces.

Seeing their anxious faces, Wang Dun knew that they were resisting, so he softened his tone and reassured them: "Although Guangzhou is remote, it is still a good place. There are high mountains there, which can withstand the attack of Zhao's army."

"We only have to hold on for three months. Zhao Hanzhang's national power is severely depleted, and he is repairing the Yellow River at this time. We expected that she would not dare to send troops at this time, but if she did, it would not last long, otherwise there would be no food and grass." Wang Dun said: "So we only need to survive three months. The spring plowing is approaching and she has to withdraw her troops. By then, we only need to subdue the officials in Guangzhou."

At this time, Guangzhou covered a very large area, including southern Hunan, eastern Guizhou and Guangdong and Guangxi. There were many ethnic minorities, most of whom were autonomous by tribes. Among them, the most populous ethnic minorities in Guangdong and Guangxi were called Li and Liao people, collectively referred to as Li Liao.

Among them, the Liao people are the ancestors of the Zhuang and Dong ethnic groups in later generations. They are very fierce. Now most of them are autonomous. Not to mention Wang Dun, even Dai Yuan and King Langya appointed him. He had to use a gentle approach when he went to Guangzhou. Otherwise, the officials would not obey his rule.

The staff compared Wang Dun's character exposed in the past two years, and they all felt that he might not be able to control his subordinates. Those slang officials have a tyrannical character. They will be weak when they are weak and strong when they are strong. If they want Wang Dun to pretend to be a grandson first...

If he could pretend to be a grandson, would he get into such trouble with King Langya?

But the pirates had already boarded the ship, and it was difficult to get off. They could only take one step at a time, and immediately began to take action. They first arrested strong men for military service, and then sent people down to collect food and grass.

The people in Hefei were immediately miserable. When their food was forcibly confiscated, they could still go out to wander and beg. As long as they had the land and had a new harvest after half a year, they could always find a way to survive. But if people were forcibly confiscated, then Just nothing.

As a result, the people in Hefei cried loudly. Some people hid in the mountains to avoid military service, and some even broke their legs in order to avoid military service.

Just when more and more people were choosing to commit suicide to avoid military service, the news that Wang Dun had kept secret finally spread among the people, "The Zhao Jiajun is coming, the Zhao Jiajun has arrived in Hefei——"

In fact, on the evening of the day when Wang Dun received the news about Jiankang's work, he learned that the army he sent to attack Zhongli County had been picked by the Zhao army.

After that, he lost the trace of the Zhao family army. When he found it again, they ambushed the team collecting grain, grass and military service in Dangtu County.

Food and grass were robbed, newly recruited soldiers were released, veterans were beaten and let go, and the leader was killed. After the news spread, Huainan County under Wang Dun's occupation trembled.

When the army went out to collect grain and recruits, they became much gentler and did not dare to stand out.

Therefore, before the Zhao army arrived, Zhao Shi's surprise cavalry of 2,000 men won the hearts of the people of Huainan County for Zhao Hanzhang.

The common people did not dare to make noise outside, but secretly worshiped Zhao Hanzhang's tablet at home, praying that the Zhao army would quickly regain Huainan County and drive away Wang Dun.

Just as he put in the incense, chickens were crowing and dogs were barking outside. Before he could go to the door to check, the wooden door was kicked open. Three or five soldiers walked in with big swords and shouted: "I have been ordered to conquer grain and grass. There are six people in your family." People need to pay one stone and two measures of food, and there is also a seventeen-year-old young man who will join the army."

Because of the winter, there was nothing to do in the fields. The family who was at home in Maodong was suddenly stunned. After realizing it, they quickly explained, "We already paid the military tax once before, and used the money to offset the military service..."

"Last time was last time, this time is this time, this is the second military levy, hand it over quickly, don't let us search it ourselves!"

The old man almost fell to the ground crying, "There is no more food. The only food we have is for winter. We are just making ends meet. If you take it away, you are killing people."

The old man stepped forward, handed them his hands and said, "Otherwise, you can arrest me and I can deduct some of the food tax."

"Bah, half of your feet are in the coffin. Are you going to fight or die when I arrest you?" The soldiers felt that they were gentle enough. If they had talked so much nonsense before, they would have robbed them as soon as they entered the door. But they still didn't know what to do. Then we can only take action.

With a quick glance, a soldier grabbed a young man with quick eyes and hands, "It's up to him to serve in the military. Let's go get food later."
