Wang Shuo occupied Ningyuan, reorganized his troops and horses, scattered the soldiers, and incorporated them into Fang Dachu's ranks.smashed open the treasury of Ningyuan County, the treasury was empty, and there was not much to use.The total amount of grain stored is less than 1,000 catties, which seems to be the rations left for the defending army, and the rest has nothing but some Ming army armor.It's good to have 1,000 catties of food, enough to eat in Longxi, not in vain.He knew that the invasion army brigade was ahead, and defeating Ning Yuan by himself was tantamount to cutting off the back road of the invasion army.At this moment, the deserters will return to report the news, and there will definitely be a large group of troops returning to capture the city.He didn't dare to stay too long, so he ordered to bring food, let the soldiers put on the Ming army number Kampi armor in the treasury, and retreat quickly.There is a small road at the south gate of Ningyuan, although it is farther, and it is rugged and difficult to walk, but it can reach Longxi, and the war horse can pass.This path was cut off by the city, and it was impossible to enter without taking Ningyuan.Of course, the avenue still can't be walked, and the more than 10,000 troops along the way must be on the main road, and he can't beat anything.He had to get there before the army captured Longxi, and even if he couldn't defend the city, he had to rescue the ancient Wang Shuo's mother from the city.While the army was being reorganized in the courtyard of the county government and preparing to hurry, an old man in his fifties entered the county government with more than a dozen people.Wang Shuo once fought with his father in Ningyuan, and many people knew him.The old man asked Wang Shuo: "Is the young general going to leave?"
Wang Shuo had to tell the old man the truth, they had few soldiers, and they couldn't defeat the army, so they could only leave temporarily, rush to Gongchang Mansion, and fight again.The old man said: "The young general can know that Ning Yuan surrendered on the day of the thieves' brutality, but he did not resist, and the thieves all killed people without calculation, searched from house to house, and robbed food and women.In Ningyuan City, half of the people were poisoned, and there was not much left of the women, who were killed by them and used as military food, and now the young general is back, killing their people, taking their food, if they return, they can't find the young general, and they will definitely take our anger.If this is the case, the people of Ningyuan City are bound to die," he said, and wept bitterly, and the people who came with him also cried together.Wang Shuo couldn't help but be stunned.He only thought of taking Ningyuan and seizing grain and grass, but he didn't consider that the people of Ningyuan would be retaliated against by the intruding army.He asked everyone to wait in the courtyard of the county office, ready to pull out at any time, invited the old man and the villagers to sit down in the county office, and asked: "According to the old man's intentions, what should I do?"
The old man sighed and said: "What can I do now, I just ask the young general to take care of these people and let them go with you." ”Wang Shuo couldn't help frowning.The Chuang Army Brigade has already gone to Longxi, and I am afraid that Longxi is in danger at this time.If you bring the people with you, the speed of the march will inevitably be greatly reduced, and the distance that was originally a little more than a day may take three days.The old man saw Wang Shuo's face embarrassed, so he arched his hand at him and said: "Young General, we know that General Wang Yan loves the people like a son, presumably the young general will not be indifferent to the suffering of the people, there are still more than 3,000 people in this city, please have mercy on the young general" Fuqiang City was broken, and the scene of the people being slaughtered appeared in front of him again.When the old man mentioned his father, Wang Shuo couldn't refuse.But this to Longxi, are rugged and difficult to travel on the road, these people help the old and the young, can you get to the old man told him, this to the west, over the Nianpanling, is the road to Zhangxian, Wang Shuo can take the people to Zhangxian for a while.It's in a remote location, and it's estimated that the intruders won't go there.Wang Shuo asked Ning Yuan how far he was from Zhangxian County, and the old man told him that it was eighty miles.Wang Shuo couldn't help but shake his head.It is eighty miles to Zhangxian County, and it is also eighty miles to Longxi.From Ningyuan to escort the people to Zhangxian, and then from Zhangxian to Longxi, five days may not be enough, I am afraid that Longxi has been broken by Lu Wenbin, he found a guide, asked the path in detail, and learned that the road to Longxi must also pass through the road to Zhangxian, so he had an idea.He first led the people out of Ningyuan, crossed the Nianpanling, escorted the people to the main road to Zhangxian, and then left a small team of soldiers to escort them to continue to Zhangxian, and he led the rest of the men and horses along the small road to Longxi.As soon as he told the old man about his idea, there was no other way, and the old man had no choice but to agree.He asked the old man to lead the villagers to inform all the people in the city, and if they were willing to follow, they should quickly pack up, bring nothing but food and clothes, and set off on time at noon.He also ordered Fang Dachu to close the four gates of Ningyuan, and all the soldiers went to the city to defend, monitor the army in the west of Longxi, and report the situation at any time.Until noon, the two sides of the Wei River did not find a large group of enemy troops, Wang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered Wang Xiaoer to lead the way with the guide and Liang Dunzi's cavalry in front, and the people followed in the middle
