Chapter 427 425 Searching the Mountain to Capture the Monster and Daru's Army Marching South

Chapter 427 425. Searching the Mountains to Capture Demons and Daru’s Army Going South

In late May, the Second Route Army entered the capital of Yunjiang Province.

The news spread back to Qifeng County, the officials were excited, and preparations for the founding of the country were accelerated again.

Apart from the ceremonial preparations, a series of issues lie before us: how to reward military officers with meritorious service, how to reward civilian officials, how to reform institutions, etc.

Although there used to be a formal and effective system that stipulated these things like a ruler, but now that the founding of the country is imminent, some things need to be broken and re-established in order to adapt to the development of the new era.

These things need to be finalized as soon as possible.

While the Ministry of National Defense, the Department of Civil Affairs, the Department of Propaganda, the Zhongshu Pavilion and other departments were allocating personnel to prepare for the founding ceremony and institutional reform-related matters, Yunjiang Province sent back a sudden news that made the monarchs and ministers of Wuzhou have no choice but to Make time for discussion and resolution.

Yuanhe Hall of the Royal Palace, meeting room of the side hall.

"The upper reaches of the Wusu River flooded, affecting 35 counties in five counties. Starvation and death were everywhere, corpses were strewn in the fields, living corpses were scattered in pieces, and demons were wandering around the world, eating people without mercy."

Ren Pingsheng looked at the words in the memorial.

These short words have already painted a picture of hell on earth.

“Rivers overflow in spring. Glaciers thaw and surge incessantly. Their momentum spreads and they have no destination. If there is too much water, they will overflow. If there is too little water, they will dry up.

The impact of this dike breach is really not small. But misfortune and blessings depend on it. The rivers in Yunjiang Province are overflowing. After this flood discharge, the possibility of recurrence of floods in the downstream Chujiang Province, Pingshan Province, and Guangnan Province has been reduced. "

Liu Shu said dialectically.

What he said is not wrong. Yunjiang Province is already poor, with mountains and rivers, barren land and a small population. As a flood discharge place, in terms of economic and social impact, it is always more serious than downstream flooding. a little better.

That's true, but the problem needs to be solved urgently.

"Now that things have happened, in a problem-oriented manner, the most important thing now is to solve the problems in Yunjiang Province and stabilize Yunjiang Province quickly.

Now, the Second Route Army is clearing out the living corpses and demons in Yunjiang Province, and has used part of its military rations to rescue refugees.

But after all, military rations can only relieve temporary difficulties. "

Ren Pingsheng sat on the sofa and looked at the ministers.

There were only a few people in the meeting, including Xiao Wan, Liu Qiang, Liu Shu, Lu Yingying, Wu Qiong, Ren Nuan, Du Huimin, Huang Wenguang and others.

"The problems we are facing now are quite complicated. One is that our people have just entered Yunjiang Province, and the census work for Yunjiang Province has not yet started. It is difficult to judge the amount of food that needs to be mobilized.

Second, our food reserves must give priority to ensuring military logistics. The population consumption in the five counties of Yunjiang Province is too large. With our current food reserves in Wuzhou Province, it is difficult to supply two lines.

Third, the number of demons in Yunjiang Province far exceeds that in the eastern provinces. Our army encountered great obstacles when clearing the demons in the mountains. "

Huang Wenguang raised the question.

"I think the first two problems are not difficult to solve. We can provide disaster relief and record at the same time. Disaster relief will be carried out strictly according to the population number and quantitatively. When the disaster relief is over, the population level will basically be able to have a solid foundation.

In the future, according to this registration and land allocation, the "hard bones" of household registration and land allocation, which were originally difficult and difficult to advance, have become easier to deal with. "

Lu Yingying said: "As for the food problem, it is not difficult."

He looked at everyone and said: "Now, we have actual control over the five counties in southern Anhui, Pingshan Province, Chujiang Province, Yunjiang Province, as well as Hehe Province, Jian'an Province, and Guangnan Province.

Hehe Province, Chujiang Province, and Pingshan Province are all traditional agricultural provinces and were originally the great granaries of the Jing Dynasty.

Guangnan Province is more mountainous, but its Fragrant Mountain rice is famous throughout the country, and Fragrant Mountain grain merchants are also world-famous.

We only need to issue disaster relief bonds to local grain merchants and wealthy gentry in the nearest Chujiang and Guangnan provinces, and then return them after the summer grain is stored in the warehouse.

Governor Du should be able to take the lead in doing this. "

He looked at Du Huimin.

Du Huimin nodded: "We can issue a special batch of bonds. If we buy them directly with money, the effect will not be good.

These can be done by Ge Changhai from Guangnan and Chen Xiu from Chujiang. "

Everyone nodded.

Everyone knows what it means when this effect is not good. Those grain merchants may take the opportunity to increase prices, and these places are in newly occupied areas. Wuzhou is far away from them and their influence is weak. Wuzhou's banknotes are not recognized there. The consensus is not that easy to use.

At this time, we still need to rely on the army and force to issue bonds. Even if it will cause a small crisis of trust in the short term, as long as we wait until the bonds expire and return them to these grain merchants and tycoons with interest, it will have the effect of establishing trust. Effect.

And by that time, Ren Pingsheng has already established the country, and paper money will naturally become the legal tender of Qi, and it will be easy to pay back the money by then.

Domestic debt is not a debt, it will only be a minor problem when the time comes.

"Chang Feng, the director of the Night Cat Organization Operation Team, personally led the team and has dispatched Tianjia, Tianbing, and Dijia, a total of hundreds of teams and thousands of people to Yunjiang Province to cooperate with the Second Route Army in key offensive tasks. I believe it will Contain the rampant demons in Yunjiang Province."

Xiaowan spoke.

In this way, the three main issues have leaders to implement them.

“These solutions can only treat the symptoms. If you want to treat both the symptoms and the root causes, you still need to rely on the construction system, optimize management, build dams, develop production, etc. All of these will take time to manage and develop.

When formulating policies in the future, Yunjiang Province should pay special attention to it. "

Ren Pingsheng concluded.

After the meeting, a work plan was formed at the Zhongshuge Secretariat and was quickly implemented.

As the Second Route Army resisted demons and exterminated living corpses in Yunjiang Province, the First Route Army made a triumphant journey after leaving Jian'an Province. By late June, it had occupied the entire Caiyun Province and deployed 100,000 militiamen. They were stationed in the four border counties of Zhanguo, Changyun, Minjiang, and Tuanjie in Caiyun Province, respectively to guard Miaozhou Shengfan and the borders of Yanguo and Luguo.

In accordance with the arrangements of the Ministry of National Defense, Qin Sheng led the army to Chujiang Province and stationed in Jinshan County.

Zhou Ming was dispatched to lead the 101st and 301st divisions to Yunjiang Province to cooperate with the Second Route Army to exterminate the demons.

Yunjiang Province has Changyun Mountains, Yuanshan Mountains, Fengge Mountains, Chunshan Mountains, etc. Among them, Chunshan Mountains and Yuanshan Mountains have the most monsters.

The mighty army entered the vast mountains and was immediately submerged. Even with the eyes of the aerial drone, it was difficult to find the army.

And monsters that can transform into their original form and hide among the mountains are obviously even more difficult to find.

It is impossible for the army to exterminate the animals in the mountains, and the army cannot be too dispersed.

This was a serious mistake Su San made when he first entered the mountains. He forgot that these primitive mountains and forests were the home of monsters. After the army was dispersed, hidden monsters would assassinate soldiers from time to time, and many people died as a result. , even more people died in this march and battle!

Nowadays, the units are all at the company level, and the companies in a battalion are not far apart from each other.

This led to a reduction in the efficiency of the army's search for mountains.

All kinds of difficulties have created great resistance for the army to search!

After searching for nearly a month, the army had to change its strategy from completely annihilating the demons to effectively deterring the demons so that the demons would not, could not, or do not want to go down the mountain to rob humans.

After the world is stabilized and Yunjiang Province is under great control, we will recruit some, instigate some to rebel, and attack others, and spend time to completely eliminate the demons in the mountains.

"Rumble..."

There was a violent roar in the sky, which was the sound of a bomber.

With the screams of "咻咻咻咻咻...", followed by the "boom, boom, boom" explosion, an explosion exploded on the top of a mountain. Broken trees and stones flew in all directions and rolled down the mountain. When it fell, the forest fires were raging, and the moist trees burned, creating billowing smoke that shot straight into the sky.

The bombers, protected by fighter jets, began to return.

"The Yefengshan bombing mission is completed, I wish you good luck!"

A voice message from the flight formation came from the communications soldier's earpiece.

He took out the drone and placed it on a stone, and the propellers "buzzed" and quickly flew into the sky, flying towards Yefeng Mountain not far away, spinning around about 500 meters above it, billowing with thick smoke. Smoke obscured the camera's view, but as the drone turned upwind, we finally saw the top of the mountain.

Everything above it no longer existed, it was all razed to the ground. There were charred potholes everywhere, as well as the corpses of many monsters.

"Report to Commander, there are many corpses of monsters on Yefeng Mountain, and there are no signs of monster activity."

The communications soldier reported to Su San.

Su San looked at Changfeng beside him: "Brother Changfeng, send your people up to take a look again."

Changfeng nodded and clicked on the headset: "Four groups of operations."

"yes!"

Soon, a small team of people quickly headed towards Yefeng Mountain.

"Yefeng Mountain is the most well-known monster clan in the Yuanshan Mountains. This bombing has caused quite a stir. I hope it can deter the monsters on the mountain."

Su San sighed.

Searching the mountains to exterminate monsters was not a sweep with their heads covered. They hired local guides to go into the mountains. After entering the mountains, they hunted down the monsters. Through constant questioning and interrogation, they found the locations where the monsters were entrenched and eradicated them. Over the course of a month, they had already More than three thousand monsters were wiped out, but the number of monsters far exceeded their imagination.

Later, the monsters learned to be smart and no longer dared to confront the human army head-on. Instead, they abandoned the mountains and hid in the mountains and forests. Often when they arrived at the next monster stronghold, all that was left were some empty houses. , caves, bones.

"Requesting support! We found the Bear Demon King and four surviving demons!"

A cry for help came from the mountains.

At the same time, the sound of fierce fighting came.

"Su Dingbian, take your people with you!"

Changfeng looked solemn and ordered.

Su Ding nodded: "Follow me!"

Under the instant high-frequency sound waves vibrating behind him, the whole figure suddenly shot up into the sky like a cannonball and blasted towards Yefeng Mountain.

A blue-purple electric light suddenly appeared on a person's body, quickly covering his whole body, and suddenly disappeared in place. The next moment, a bolt of lightning stretched across the mountains, and the air was instantly filled with electric charges, making people's skin numb and their hairs standing on end. stand up.

A woman in leather pants swung out the long whip in her hand, and it instantly wrapped around the top of a big tree. The long whip can automatically expand and contract, and she quickly swung out, heading towards the top of the mountain, and disappeared in a moment.

"Buzz~"

Suddenly, there was an ear-discomforting sound from the top of the mountain.

The next moment, rocks shattered, trees burst, even mountain fires were dispersed, and the air on the mountain instantly became dense.

It didn't take long for the fighting on the mountain to subside.

Su Dingbian carried a brown bear down the mountain.

Su San looked at the bear for a while and said, "Take this bear back, hang it up, and hang it on the south gate of Liaoyuan City!"

After defeating Yefeng Mountain, the second army began to withdraw from Yuanshan Mountain Range.

The Yuanshan Mountain Range, which had been disturbed by explosions and gunshots for a month and became chaotic every day, finally fell into peace again.

The hidden monsters came out again.

After more than a month of continuous mountain searches, countless mountaintops were destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of monsters died, including a large number of big monsters with famous names on more than 200 mountaintops in Yuanshan Mountain Range.

This greatly deterred the arrogance of these monsters. Those who have eaten humans were terrified, and those who have not eaten humans were lucky but also afraid.

After all, whether someone has eaten humans or not can be judged by some methods, it will not be completely written on his face. It is really common to be killed by others as a military merit.

In a moment, the atmosphere in the mountains changed. The big monsters in the mountains closed their mountain gates one after another. Some even stopped gathering their former little monsters. They only focused on practicing, settling their own blood, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and improving their own strength.

The mountains and forests formed an invisible wall between the boundary of the human society outside. Monsters would not easily leave the mountains and forests, and humans would not easily enter the mountains and forests.

A relatively stable state was formed temporarily.

Not to mention the shock brought to the monsters in Yunjiang Province by searching the mountains and killing monsters for a month.

Now the main problem of Wuzhou has shifted from unifying and liberating the south to the constantly moving Daru Dynasty.

They have already been in Jingzhou, and they have divided their troops into three routes to the south, forming three armies, namely the third route led by the third prince Tuoba Feng, which directly attacked the Zhaofu Group in Yuzhou Province.

The second prince Tuoba Chang led the second route to attack the Beiwan Group in Zhongzhou.

The third route led by the eldest prince Tuoba Sheng attacked the Yanzhao Group.

As soon as he made a move, he attacked from three directions, showing a posture of despising all the heroes in the world and preparing to take down the whole world in one fell swoop!

Through countless simulations by the Ministry of National Defense, it is believed that Zhao Fu's Yuzhou Province is the weakest and will be the easiest hole for the Daru army to tear open.

Wuzhou sent a large number of observation posts while seizing the time to mobilize troops to assemble in Jinshan County, Chujiang Province.

Su San and Hu Dalu led the army. After withdrawing from the Yuanshan Mountains, the army entered Linwu County. There were dozens of large ships docked on the Wusu River here. These were emergency grain transport ships sent by Wuzhou. After setting off from Wuzhou, they entered the Wenchang River along the Blue Yangtze River, and then entered the Wusu River from the Wenchang River. The grain was transported to Linwu and Yuanshan counties, and then distributed through these two counties.

The title should be "Searching the Mountains and Killing Monsters", but it was typed as "Catching Monsters" at the beginning. The chapter title cannot be modified by itself, so I won't change it for now.
