Chapter 399

Why does Cao Yang feel relieved?

That's because ye Xiang gave him a way to both relieve Qi and obtain military achievements.

After arriving at Cao Yang's study, ye Xiang introduced his true identity. He was an immortal from Longdu, but his cultivation was not high. He didn't say his purpose of coming to Haishan pass.

But Cao Yang is not a fool. Where are dragons? If you throw out a brick, you can hit a top five official. Therefore, he won't ask about the background of Ye Xiang.

Since he wants to pretend to be Zhao Buchuan, let him be Zhao Buchuan. Therefore, Cao Yang doesn't care about this.

Secondly, the reason why Cao Yang is not vigilant about ye Xiang is that ye Xiang is the guy with more than 40 people in the c-camp who killed all the mountain bandits in Haishan pass, and the other party made it clear that he doesn't want this credit.

Cao Yang knew that such a person had a great ambition, so ye Xiang was willing to let him out, and Cao Yang gladly accepted it.

What method did ye Xiang give Cao Yang?

In fact, ye Xiang's method is very simple. First, he doesn't explain why the Ximang army didn't attack Haishan pass. Second, he doesn't know. If someone asks if there is a big army passing through Haishan pass, he answers that he doesn't know.

As for how to explain the others, it's easy to say.

After all, someone will escape and someone will come to Haishan pass, so Cao Yang will know sooner or later.

Finally, ye Xiang suggested that all the residents in Haishan pass and the farmers in the villages outside the pass should withdraw to the mountains, and all the food in the city should be transported out.

Because the Ximang army will not be so kind, they will certainly loot the surrounding area of Haishan pass on their way back.

And they didn't do it before because they were robbing time. I think their intention to sweep Yunzhou leaked out.

So Ximang people want to sweep Yunzhou quickly before Yunzhou is ready.

However, the land of Yunzhou is very vast. After all, Yunzhou has been known as a four thousand mile Yunzhou since ancient times. It is estimated that it will take half a month to a month for Ximang cavalry to sweep it.

This period of time is the time to prepare for Haishan pass. If Cao Yang is still here foolishly thinking whether to intercept the returning Ximang cavalry, he will be really stupid.

Now the place to stop the Ximang cavalry is in the four passes on the seamount. In other places, that is the rhythm of looking for death.

After all, there is no problem to accommodate the people who have closed the whole Haishan in the four places of guitouguan, Xiongguan, mengguan and yuguiguan.

As for the farmers in the villages outside the pass, they only need to evacuate in the north and south directions.

After all, the return route of Ximang cavalry can only be the only four passes that can leave the seamount, so their route can be expected.

Since it can be expected, avoid it in advance, so that many people can avoid the suffering of military disaster.

Later, when Cao Yang mentioned that the other side had more than 1000 immortals, ye Xiang's method was to call Zhang Nan in, explain Zhang Nan's cultivation, and belittle the more than 1000 immortals.

The final result is that more than 1000 people are the weakest among immortals, just like farmers among mortals.

Cao Yang laughed at this, and at the same time, he was kind to Zhang Nan, but he was a little frightened about ye Xiang.

Cao Yang is not a reckless man. Although he is not very powerful in marching and fighting, he has a set of skills in officialdom.

If he had not been transferred from other states to Yunzhou, he would not have been excluded by the officials of the gentry and local tyrants in Yunzhou, and finally demoted him to haishanguan.

Therefore, he still has some eyesight. Great immortals like Zhang Nan are willing to be ye Xiang's adjutant. We can imagine how terrible the forces behind Ye Xiang are.

Therefore, Cao Yang made a decision at that moment. From now on, he will listen to Ye Xiang. Anyway, he doesn't want the war merit. He just wants Cao Yang to write the name of c-camp Zhao Buchuan several more times in the memorial reported by Cao Yang, or he can directly help Zhao Buchuan to become an official.

After all, a Cao who fights so bravely should let the world know.

As for the purpose of Ye Xiang's fame in this way, Cao Yang doesn't think about it. Maybe he is young and wants to be a great hero!

After all, the characters in the Dragon capital have all kinds of strange ideas. Most of them are full.

Since he decided to listen to Ye Xiang, all four barracks of a, B, C and D were dispatched, and the people of the whole city began to sort out their family assets and prepare to move into the mountains.

Many of them didn't understand, many were confused, and many wept and didn't want to leave, but the commander in chief made it clear that if you want to live, you should hurry into the mountain.

Life matters!

So everyone, escorted by the garrison at haishanguan, entered the mountain.

……

In the upper county capital of Yunzhou, those big bellied officials and generals gathered here again. Now they are discussing how much money and food to buy peace.

At least keep their peace in the county. After all, this is the root of many rich people.

But this time, the Ximang cavalry was even more strange. They directly attacked Yunzhou in four ways, and it was a rare immortal attacking the city.

Those immortals directly turned over the city with their swords and opened the city gate. Then 50000 cavalry marched straight into the city. After entering the city, they slaughtered first and then robbed food.

What scares these state officials most is that the style of Ximang cavalry is too strange this time.

However, these families did not kill the poor or ordinary people. After entering the city, their team went straight to the merchant's house and major grain shops in the city. They only wanted food.

Obviously, only the homes of those wealthy businessmen will have food, even in the hands of farmers, there is not much food.

And what they want is speed. Obviously, what they want is to seize the time and loot the grain of the whole Yunzhou, so that they can return to the grassland with grain and grass before winter.

"They are hungry!"

"Can you not be crazy? The granary that had been hoarded for more than ten years was burned. It's strange that jerimoto didn't go crazy. He is the elected commander. If he can't feed his tribe, his commander won't do it. "

"How much food do you think we can take out so that jerumetto can go back with his army?"

"How many people are there on the grassland? Millions of people should have it! According to the calculation of five million people, each person has one kilogram of grain a day, and five million people are five million kilos. I don't need to say what this concept is. Ximang has a long winter, more than 100 days! "

As soon as he came out of the scene, he became quiet and no one spoke anymore.

But after some calculation, someone said in surprise, "how can they transport 500 million kilograms of grain back? It will take two months!"

"How can you say that you have 500 million kilograms of grain?"

"I don't, I don't!"

"No, what did you say?"

"It's not a big deal for Ximang to transport 500 million kilograms of grain away. Don't you see that they will come with more than 1000 immortals this time! That's the way they transport grain. One person can bring hundreds of thousands or even millions of kilograms of grain and return to Ximang one day and one night! "

Now everyone in the room was silent and their faces were ugly.

"People will starve to death this winter..."

I don't know who said such a sentence, and then everyone left silently.

But none of them realized that they were as stupid as pigs. They never thought of how to fight immortals and how to move rescuers to Xinghe Zong and Yunque Zong.

All people think about themselves. They only think about themselves, their families and how much their family wealth can be guaranteed in the end.

They have no confidence in the hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Yunzhou.

Even when those generals heard that 50000 cavalry came to Ximang, they said directly, "the more than 100000 garrisons in Yunzhou can't stop each other even if they run out."

The generals in Yunzhou have already conceded defeat before fighting. Do they not believe in their own army?

No, it's not that they don't believe in their army, but that they are afraid to spend money.

Yunzhou can be regarded as a rich place for the whole Yin Empire, but all the tycoons and businessmen in Yunzhou are ridiculed by the whole Yin empire as the cheapest and timid businessmen in the world.

Their stinginess and timidity can be shown every time they provide disaster relief.

In Yin Empire, disasters of different sizes occur every year, so several donation orders for disaster relief are issued every year.

A disaster relief order will only be issued once to other states, while Yunzhou will issue three times in succession, so that the money and food they donate can be similar to that donated by other states, but most of the time it is much less than that in other states.

Because of such a unique group of selfish people, Yunzhou failed to launch an effective counterattack at the first time after the invasion of Ximang cavalry.

But war is like this. If there is a counterattack at the beginning, this resistance will continue.

If there is no resistance at first, the result is a thousand miles.

Therefore, in just one day when Ximang cavalry entered Yunzhou, 50000 iron cavalry had won dozens of cities, which was the size of a county, and the food was looted.

Moreover, the speed of this kind of looting is still accelerating, and the Ximang people are crazy this time, and they loot day and night.

Later, those officials in Yunzhou learned that the reason why the 50000 cavalry in Ximang were divided into four teams was that when two cavalry were resting, the other two cavalry could continue to loot.

However, each cavalry has only 10000 people, and another 10000 people is responsible for sorting out the food they looted and preparing to transport it back.

The cavalry in charge of looting will be sent to the rear every time they have a harvest. The 10000 people and more than 200 immortals in the rear are responsible for loading these grains or storing them in storage magic weapons, waiting for a certain amount to be sent back.

With such careful arrangement, the whole sweeping process was calculated by yerumoto, and what he had to pay was more than 1000 Ximang women.

In fact, this is a disgrace to jerimoto. This is a thousand immortals he bought with women, and all this is for the survival of millions of people on the grassland.

So later, a military order passed out from the army account of yerumetto, that is, the city of slaughter!

Therefore, from the next day, the situation in Yunzhou turned sharply downward, and the war reports were sent to Shangjun, but after seeing the war reports, the officials thought not of resistance, but how to escape

They still didn't think of finding the immortal's sect door, and didn't think whether Xinghe sect and Yunque sect could send some immortals to help them.

Because they know that once the immortal comes out of the mountain, it will cost money, and they are reluctant to give up.

Life, money, food... People can die, the poor can die as much as they want, as long as they don't die!

……

At the same time, all the people in Haishan pass were evacuated. There were only empty towers and houses left. Except for a few domestic firewood dogs, they were still wandering in the streets and could not see anyone at all.

The farmers in the villages outside Haishan pass have long hid. Some farmers hid in the mountains, and some farmers avoided the only way to the four passes. In short, if the Ximang people come back, they will see a place free of birds and people.

In the Xiongguan pass, Cao Yang, Zhang Nan and ye Xiang are having a heated discussion. At the moment, dozens of barbecue racks are set up in the valley in the Xiongguan pass. A whole sheep emitting fragrance is emitting grease on the barbecue rack.
