Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 517: Savage (Second)
Up to now, no one knows how many soldiers and horses Beiman sent here.
Overnight, the entire Longxi Mansion was in chaos.
Xiangyi Mansion, which is adjacent to Longxi Mansion, temporarily stopped the Beiman cavalry going south because of Shen Wansheng's timely response, but Donglin Mansion and Qifeng Mansion, which were close to Longxi Mansion, were already affected.
"Brother, is there no way to force the Beiman to fight?"
Shen Wansheng really has a headache now.
He has already sent people to guard the places where Longxi Mansion must pass to enter Xiangyi Mansion, but if he can't clear the Beiman who entered Longxi Mansion, he has to keep people guarding those official roads. .
If the situation deteriorates further, Xiangyi Mansion will have to defend the official road pass connecting Donglin Mansion and Qifeng Mansion. But in fact, Xiangyi Mansion did not have so many troops at all.
The combat power of the recruits temporarily recruited is almost zero. Once they encounter the impact of the northern barbarians, they may be defeated in the first battle.
"Second brother, the purpose of Beiman going south this time should be to loot."
"We're so cold in the spring here, I'm afraid it's even colder over there."
"Today's Beiman is to survive!"
Master Xu doesn't want to drive Beiman out, but it's really difficult.
Last year's war, they were well prepared, and they used a thousand eight cattle crossbows, and they were almost defeated by the northern barbarians. If it wasn't for good luck, the town army of Xiangyi Prefecture who went with them fought desperately to the death, and he and his two sons would probably have no idea where they were buried by now.
He once came to flee, and in order to survive, he went all the way.
On the way to escape, he saw too many people's madness in order to survive.
It's cold in spring, and natural disasters kill people.
What kind of situation Beiman is in now, Mr. Xu can guess a thing or two as long as he thinks about it. Today's Beiman is afraid that it has already become a purgatory on earth.
In order to survive Beiman, the madness that broke out is absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.
"The second child, now, I can only watch and see what the court decides!"
Old Master Xu sighed, "Also, if the northern barbarians break through the barrier and enter this time, if the court does not respond properly, the world is likely to be in chaos. You have to prepare early!"
"Huh?!"
Hearing what Mr. Xu said, Shen Wansheng's eyes were dumbfounded.
"Brother, what do you mean?"
Old Master Xu sighed and said, "Why do you want to pretend to be sick?"
"I was planning to go to Jiangnan this time, but I stumbled upon Jieyun Dao in Jiangling City to buy food secretly. I guess, Jieyun Dao may rebel!"
"Now, Beiman has broken through!"
"If there is another disaster in the current cold spring, it will inevitably affect the spring seeds. This is a problem of internal and external troubles"
Speaking of which, there is no need for Mr. Xu to say more. Shen Wansheng is also a smart person, so he naturally understands what will happen under this internal and external trouble.
If you are not careful, the Tang Dynasty, which has been established for more than 100 years, may collapse at once.
"Brother, I got it!"
Shen Wansheng listened to what Mr. Xu said, and finally understood that the situation was more serious than he imagined. When he came, Shen Wansheng was only worried about Beiman, but now, he felt that he should worry about the world.
When the cold spring came, Shen Wansheng just felt that it was cold.
He was born in the Shen family in Changshan, and is a child of an aristocratic family. He knew a little about the farm work in the fields, but he was not proficient. He didn't think of spring planting because of the cold spring, and naturally he couldn't think of the failure of the grain harvest.
Now, after Mr. Xu's awakening, Shen Wansheng felt that the situation was serious for the first time.
It's cold in spring!
It's not a matter of Shan Cun Xiangyi Mansion, Longxi Mansion is even colder. And his mother's letter from home also mentioned that this spring is very cold.
Changshan Shen, located in Changliufu in the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty.
Changliu Mansion is also suffering from a cold spring. If you calculate it like this, half of the entire Tang Dynasty is afraid that half of the world is suffering from this unusual cold spring.
Leaving Lingshui Village, Shen Wansheng immediately wrote a letter and asked the guards around him to send him back to the Shen family in Changshan.
Save food!
Hiring!
Shen Wansheng, who is an official, has already deeply understood the profound meaning of the phrase "people take food as the sky".
People, if they don't have food, they can do anything.
Dongming Mansion is located in the eastern edge of the Tang Dynasty, adjacent to Bailuo, a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.
There are no four seasons in Dongmingfu, only two seasons a year, winter and summer.
Xueji Pass is the key pass for Bailuo to enter Dongming Mansion.
It's just that since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty and Bailuo's surrender to the Tang Dynasty, this Xueji Pass has been described as a fake. Although Datang arranged for a garrison at Xueji Pass, the number was only 500.
Of course, the five-hundred town army is only a figure on the books. In fact, the number of town troops guarding Xueji Pass is less than two hundred, and most of them are old and weak.
This kind of thing is not only unique to the North and South camps.
The entire Tang Dynasty is full of empty pay.
Lin Ao, as the general of Xueji Pass, has long since been sincere the emperor of Xueji Pass.
But at this moment, Lin Ao was kneeling on the ground like a dog, kowtowing like garlic.
Around him, corpses were everywhere, and the snow was stained red with blood.
"Kill!"
A burly man dressed like a savage waved casually.
As the man waved his hand, the savage who was also wearing animal skin next to him slammed the stick in his hand and smashed it heavily on Lin Ao's head, blowing Lin Ao's head off with one blow.
When the group of savages in animal skins left, Xue Jiguan was already lit with fireworks.
On the expanse of white snow, savages wearing animal skins escorted a large number of people from Xueji Pass towards the expansive snow forest to the north.
In the Xueji Pass, which was enveloped in flames, the old and the weak were crying.
Xueji Pass was sacked by the savages from the north, and the news that it was torched was only discovered two days later. When the beacon fire and wolf smoke came to Beijing, Emperor Yongping was already ready to drive to the northern barbarians in person.
When Emperor Yongping learned that the Northland savages had attacked Xueji Pass, he didn't take it seriously. After all, the Northland savages were like a group of uncivilized beasts to him.
However, a group of savages dared to kill the people of the Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Yongping certainly couldn't ignore it.
"Dong Guogong, I'll take your trouble to go to Xueji Pass!"
Emperor Yongping just pondered a little, and handed over the task of exterminating the savages in the north to Xu Shuo, Duke Dingguo.
It is true that Emperor Yongping felt that Xu Shuo was a piece of shit.
However, in his opinion, it should not be a problem for Xu Shuo to clean up the uncivilized savages like the Northland savages.
"The minister leads the order!"
Xu Shuo was assigned by Emperor Yongping, and he happily took over the errand.
To clean up a group of savages, relying on the armament of the Tang Dynasty, is definitely a bull's knife.
"I will give you a guard of soldiers and horses, and I will kill that savage tribe!"
Emperor Yongping glanced at Xu Shuo, "Is it possible?"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will cut the weeds and roots of the northern savages!"
