Chapter 271 Sweeping Up (Repeat, revised in 12.13)

The Yue army was a group of shameless guys. Because of the elephant army, they felt that they were invincible and very courageous. They burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil in Da'an all year round.

Of course, the scope of their activities is usually limited to the exile villages in Da'an, such as Hutou Village, and other small countries that are weak and can be bullied.

However, this year's Vietnamese army is particularly arrogant. What ordinary people don't know is that the Da'an border generals have stopped secretly paying tribute to the Vietnamese state.

Moreover, the magical weapon made by Wei Zhen appeared in the world. The Yue State did not stop and immediately led an army of 50,000 elephants (of course there were only a few hundred real elephants), invaded the Da'an Kingdom and went straight to Hutou Village.

However, today's Hutou Village is no longer what it used to be. It is a solid castle, with walls that even elephants cannot knock down, and sophisticated concealed pistols that can fire bullets without any effort.

Moreover, the power of the bullet was so great that it could penetrate the thick skin of the elephant and pierce deeply into the flesh with just a few strokes, so that the Vietnamese elephant army had no advantage at all.

The Xiang Army of Yue State was unable to capture Hutou Village, so they turned to Liu County.

Liuxian has always been the commercial center of several countries. It is richer than a city. Taking Liuxian away is much better than the sacrifice of the general.

However, the ideal is very fat and the reality is very skinny.

Magistrate Ji of Liu County has a good background. Not only does he have manpower, he also has invulnerable blue soft armor produced by the Wei family. The Vietnamese army will not be able to enter the city in a short period of time.

After only one day's delay, the Yang family's defenders rushed to the front line to support them, and the Vietnamese army was even less able to attack Liu County.

Therefore, we could only visit various villages outside the city.

However, damn, even the villages were guarded by black-armored guards who terrified the Vietnamese army, or Da'an's southern defenders, as well as the chaotic bandits, were united like never before and came to protect the people.

This Da'an is simply sick!

Anyway, the Vietnamese army was plowing grass in the valley south of Da'an with great momentum, but they did not take any advantage.

They refused to retreat in despair, so they started a long-term guerrilla war with the guards of Da'an.

"Miss Zhen! Miss Zhen, you are finally back! I am the Tietou of Qinglong Village! Do you still remember me? We have become good people and are now the guards of Xiaoliang Village! We have been resisting the Vietnamese army with the southern defenders!

La la la..."

A bandit talks a lot, and it would be a waste of his talent not to talk about it.

Since the enemy ran away, Wei Zhen did not pursue him.

"Well done!" So it was not a loss to give him twenty taels of silver. Of course Wei Zhen remembered this group of people, the same group of bandits who wanted to rob Fang Fang.

And Fang Fang is the girl that Wei Zhen's third brother likes, but I don't know how she is doing now?

It was a good thing that Wei Zhen didn't praise her, but this praise made Tietou burst into tears because of his grievance, "Miss Zhen, you're back, I thought I was dead today!"

The Vietnamese army is a bunch of bastards! They can't defeat the people in the city, so they come to bully our small village and send out 10,000 troops. They plan to destroy our Xiaoliang Village! They don't respect martial ethics!"

It's a pity that all of them together don't have 3,000 people, so they can only be beaten unilaterally, and several brothers died.

This is a cruel war, with heavy casualties, even a bandit like Tietou cannot adapt to it for a while.

"What's the situation now? Why don't you hide in the city?" It's not that Wei Zhen has no sympathy, but it's not the time to cry now that the enemy is facing us.

"Princess Qi, her subordinate is General Xiao Shen's subordinate, Zhang Liang.

Because the Xiaoliang Village area is considered the granary of several nearby countries, not only Da'an, but also several other countries purchase grain from here, and there is a treaty. Therefore, none of the villagers here have moved away.

The Vietnamese army could not take Hutou Village, nor could they attack Liu County, so they suddenly jumped over the wall and blatantly violated the treaty."

Fortunately, their thousand cavalry guarding the Southern Army had just patrolled here, and they came in handy, otherwise there would probably be no Xiaoliang Village in the future.

General Xiao Shen is Xiao Jiu and Shen Nianjin’s subordinate, right? That’s a coincidence.

"How many people are there in the Vietnamese army? How many large-scale battles have they fought? Where is Lord Shen?"

"According to reports from spies, the Vietnamese army hid their strength. They sent 50,000 people to attack Hutou Village and 30,000 people to attack Liu County. They were not the same group of people.

There may be ambushes elsewhere, and we have been sending people to investigate.

Nowadays, the battle lines are very long and there are no large-scale battles, so the generals stick to important positions to prevent the enemy from being surprised.

The Marquis was unwell, so he handed over the military power to the general, and also gave part of it to the sixth prince, but the sixth prince did not advocate war."

It is understandable that the military power that was finally obtained was not known to be lost in this battle. The purpose of the sixth prince was to retain his troops to fight for the throne.

The kind that even the common people can ignore.

It seems that Hutou Village is fine for the time being.

"Thank you for informing me. Please take the villagers to the city for resettlement. The same goes for other villages without guards. It is not safe here for the time being."

It's not that she's afraid that the Vietnamese army will come again, but that Wei Zhen just needs to dig out these people. When she does, the villagers will become her weak point, preventing her from displaying her skills.

"Yes, Princess." Their general once said that Princess Jin is a very good general. You can choose to trust her when you have no other choice.

"You should go too. When you get to the city, you should protect the villagers well. If you have any difficulties, go to Shunfeng Manor for help." Wei Zhen patted Tietou on the shoulder to show encouragement.

"Oh, good!" Tietou was very happy to get Wei Zhen's approval, and felt that the future was bright and promising.

Wei Zhen has no time to take care of the affairs of Xiaoliang Village, but potential enemies still need to be mopped up.

The Vietnamese army fled into the dense forest. Maybe their base camp was in a certain mountain. Sites like mountain forests should still be left to professionals, such as Xiao Huo.

"Stop pretending to be asleep, activate your abilities, find the hiding person, and rush him to a place." Wei Zhen shook her sleeves, and a small red snake fell to the ground.

"Dee, dee, dee, dee, dee!" It's so inhumane! Let a snake that needs hibernation get up to work in the cold weather. The owner doesn't love me anymore!

The little red snake protested very dissatisfiedly, but finally disappeared into the forest.

It does not need to look for its own kind, such as ants, scorpions and other poisons that do not need to hibernate, and can be controlled with a small fire.

"Boss, we only have a thousand people. When the time comes when the little snake finds tens of thousands of people, what will we do?"

"Wait for Xiaojiu to come and discuss."

"Xiaojiu isn't that fast, right?" So why are you taking action now? You can't just take it slow.

"Are you afraid? Take care of yourself." Mi Le is a person who makes money. Wei Zhen understands that she doesn't participate in the battle.

"Know."

Xiao Huo was so small that he couldn't be seen once he was hidden in the forest, but soon dense insects began to stir on the ground, and the rustling sound made people's scalp numb.

Wei Zhen followed immediately.
