Chapter 164 Post-war 1

Mengjin

Zhang Yuan, the head of the Wolf Xiao Group, and Jiang Xin, the deputy head of the Wolf Xiao Group, have been stationed in Mengjin City. The Mengjin people did not know that there would be a big war here. Because now it seems that Mengjin is in the hinterland of Luoyang, with the torrential Yellow River in the north and Luoyang City in the south. If the Qing army does not enter the tiger prison, it is really difficult to come to Mengjin. However, Mengjin people did not expect that the enemy could take the Yellow River to freeze and then walk directly across the Yellow River. And now that the Dodo army has not yet arrived in Mengjin, the people are even more unaware of the danger. However, as a general of the Wolf Xiao Camp, Zhang Yuan did not dare to be careless, so he sent a large number of scouts to explore along the Yellow River that day.

"Report!"

A scout ran over from the outside and stepped forward to bow to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan's heart tightened, so he asked, "What's the matter? Come on."

The scout said, "Report back to the general, the tiger prison is an urgent report!" After saying that, the scout handed the document in his hand to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan didn't know about the tiger prison, so Zhang Yuan quickly took the document in his hand, tore it open and began to read.

"The tiger prison has won a great victory. Two princes in the Qing army were captured alive by us!" Zhang Yuan looked at it and said with a smile.

But waiting for him to look down, his face was a little gloomy. Zhang Yuan looked up and said to Jiang Xin, "Brother Niu died in battle."

"General Niu Yu?" Jiang Xin confirmed. In Jiang Xin's heart, Niu Yu is a brave and good general. Why did he die like this?

Zhang Yuan nodded and confirmed this irrevotable fact to Jiang Xin. Niu Yu died in the battle and was the first senior general to die in the battle.

Niu Yu and Zhang Yuan were the first generals to follow Liu Xia. They have a deep relationship between them. Now that Niu Yu died in battle, Zhang Yuan is still very sad.

"At the same time, the general also sent an order saying that according to their intelligence, Duoduo's army is about to reach Mengjin. Let's be more careful. As for our reinforcements, they will reach in the last two or three days. Before the reinforcements arrive, even if there is only one person left in our wolf roar regiment, we will stop the Qing army and never let them leave Mengjin.

"The losses of other regiments are very great. According to the news, 3,000 of our brothers died in the battle, of which the most elite battalion of the Hu Ben Regiment is basically finished, with less than 200 people left, and many people may not be able to go to the battlefield in the future. Our wolf roar regiment can't fall behind, and we must not let a soldier escape. Jiang Xin will go to inform all the soldiers and the people of Mengjin City about the victory of the Tiger Prison.

"Yes!"

The speed of news spread is still very fast even in this era without the Internet. With the Hulao Pass as the center, it soon began to spread around. Those who don't like Liu Xia are very regretful at this time. The defeat of the Qing army means that there will be no more soldiers in the future, because the Qing army has hurt its vitality.

As for where Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi, the two princes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, have gone now, Liu Xia still doesn't know where, so Liu Xia has not left the Hu Prison Pass at the first time. After all, if he leaves by himself and Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi suddenly appear again, the Hu Prison Pass will be very dangerous.

Needless to say the importance of the Hu Prison Pass. After all, Liu Xia sacrificed more than 3,000 soldiers to protect the Hu Prison Pass! At present, Liu Xia still has a total strength of more than 6,000 people in the Hu prison. Although there are still 20,000 prisoners, the prisoners are not available for the time being.

Thousands of soldiers suddenly came to Mengjin City, which made the people of Mengjin a little uncomfortable.

Although I don't know what the Wolf Xiao Regiment is doing with so many soldiers to Mengjin, since there are troops to protect them, these people are still very happy.

The county magistrate of Mengjin City is Hua Yanchi, a middle-aged man in his thirties. He stood out in that exam and got the position of county magistrate of Mengjin County.

Since the Langxiao Regiment came to Mengjin, Huayanchi has always come to the Langxiao Regiment to visit the station outside the city. Now the county magistrate has no military power, not even the right to judge, so he does not have to face the complaints of the people every day, and he has more free time.

Huayanchi got the news of the victory of Hulaoguan early, so he took two servants to Zhang Yuan's residence.

"General Zhang, the tiger prison has won. I don't know when the general will return to Luoyang!"

Zhang Yuan looked at Hua Yanchi and pondered for a while and said, "There will be a big war in Mengjin City. The magistrate should prepare early. Although the Hu prison has won, the general will not return to Luoyang so early."

When Hua Yanchi heard that there would be a war in Mengjin City, he suddenly felt a little scared and said, "Zhang, General Zhang, Mengjin has the danger of the Yellow River. How can there be an enemy? Isn't it to scare me?

Zhang Yuan said coldly: "According to the intelligence, the Duoduo army will arrive in Mengjin tomorrow. Now the Yellow River north of Mengjin has frozen, and the Qing army can directly walk through the Yellow River to Mengjin, so..."

"Well, when did the marquis send a large army..." Although Hua Yanchi knew the strength of the Pingbei Army, he also heard that Duoduo led 30,000 troops to leave. In the face of 30,000 troops, these two thousand people were really not good.

"You don't have to worry about this. The county magistrate only needs to settle the people. If the Qing army comes, some people must be corrupted, so they still need to bother the county magistrate to do a good job."

Hua Yanchi nodded with approval and said, "Every time there is a war, there are always some ruffians who take advantage of the fire to rob. These people usually have nothing to do. If there is an accident in the city, there must be their figure. If it was put in the past, they would have been taken away as soldiers, regardless of the current generals who don't want such bastard soldiers. So that they can only rely on chaos to rob.

Mengjin City has been well defended, and the Yellow River is full of scouts sent by wolf roaring regiments.

In Huaoguan, Liu Xia also sent a large number of scouts to explore the wheres of Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi. After some inspection, Liu Xiafang learned that on that day, Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi knew that the defeat of the Qing army had been determined, so in order to preserve his strength, he gathered all his old troops and then went to Hubei. Go away. Now it's Runing Mansion, and it's unlikely to return in a short time.

In the tiger prison, snowflakes floated in the sky at this time.

Liu Xia stood on the high platform on the campus of Hu Prison Pass, and there were some generals behind him.

The middle of the campus was covered with soldiers from various regiments. These were the surviving soldiers. Even if there were snowflakes today and the weather was cold, everyone remained motionless. Because they are about to see the dead soldiers off.
