Chapter 113:

Until September of the seventeenth year.
Lin Yuan went out with the army. This was his first attack against an armed force outside the imperial court. This was also a war of great significance for Lin Yuan. A total of three generals, including Chen Baisong, fought.
Chen Baisong, Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Congrong.
They led an army of 100,000, and this time a total of 300,000 soldiers marched.
Lin Yuan was sitting on a carriage-his thighs have not yet been worn out, and riding a horse will only make his thighs become bloody. Lin Yuan chose the latter between "man's face" and "don't become a duck" ,
Fortunately, according to his status today, no one laughs at him.
The three generals had to lead troops in front and had to ride horses. Song Shizhao and Robben were sitting in Lin Yuan's carriage.
The dirt road is not smooth. Although the roads under Lin Yuan's rule are all doing road construction, the road they are passing through has not been planned yet, and the manpower is still too limited.
Lin Yuan still remembered the proverb "Many people have great power" long ago, so people desperately had children, plus the saying that there were always many children, so the population began to explode because there was a shortage of labor and many technical talents at that time. It also brings a huge problem.
It is these people who were born in the same era. Once they enter old age, society will passively enter an aging society.
The employment outlets for young people will decrease, and the life pressure of the elderly will increase.
Therefore, encouraging population growth is a double-edged sword.
Lin Yuan sighed.
He has not found a solution yet.
"I don't know what's the situation in Hanyang today." Song Shizhao looked at the news that the spies passed back. It said that Ni Wenjun had reversed, but what was the situation between Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun now was not clear to them.
Song Shizhao said: "Ni Wenjun should be able to get what he wants. Xu Shouhui has not many people available, and he is not an outstanding emperor."
Robben said at this time: "Although Xu Shouhui can't do it, he still has the four great heavenly kings, Taishi Zou Pusheng, and the generals besides Ni Wenjun Zhao Pusheng and Fu Youde. These three are not idiots. Ni Wenjun rebelled openly. People naturally have to fight desperately, and it is not yet known who will die."
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Guanzhong's statement makes sense."
When Lin Yuan spoke, Song Shizhao said honestly: "I am ignorant."
Lin Yuan comforted him: "Don't blame Mr., the ruler has strengths and weaknesses. If you can know the world, it is not a mortal but a god."
Song Shizhao lowered his head, looking very ashamed.
After leaving Lin Yuan's territory, the roadside scenery quickly changed.
The land was desolate, no one was inhabited. People never returned after abandoning their homes. There were still corpses dragged out by wild dogs on the roadside, and some even had only skeletons left.
As it is today, the big city is better, at least there are armed forces in the city, and the big families will not let the bandits enter the city. In any case, they were united at the time and the people could also benefit.
But rural farmers do not have such conditions, no one will protect them, and the gangsters have to pay the least price to attack them, so they are more likely to suffer.
Lin Yuan remembered the secret letter Jiang Guang sent to him, knowing that Jiang Guang had not done anything with food at this time, so Ni Wenjun is now when he is strong and strong, and his spirit is the best. Now go and beat them, Lin Yuan It is very possible to face the situation of being attacked by the enemy.
In the best case, when they arrived in Hanyang, the soldiers and horses of Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun were in the most exhausted state.
At that time, if they fight again, their own consumption will be reduced to a minimum.
They have been walking on the road for nearly two months.
In ancient times, when there were no cars or highways, the cavalry had horses instead, but more soldiers were infantry. They could only advance on their two legs. In addition to the infantry, there were logistics soldiers who had to transport food and grass, and there were also troops behind. Doctors and nurses.
Nurses are a new profession, but there are not many women who are willing to become nurses.
Because nurses mean that when there is war, they must be called up and go to the battlefield. Although they are in the rear, if they lose, they will not escape. But if they can go back alive, they will be promoted and paid monthly. increasing.
Therefore, most women who choose to become nurses are alone or in extremely poor families.
The logistics soldiers are more physically strong men. If they lack strength, they will also become soldiers on the battlefield.
The soldiers are very tired. They have to rush every day. They wear Fan Yang caps. Fan Yang caps are made of iron and heavy. Although they can protect their vital points, they will also bring more burdens. September, Autumn Tiger The sun was strong, especially at noon, so during the noon period, Lin Yuan was worried that the soldiers were dehydrated, so every time he stopped to camp, he had to send someone to find a source of water.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Lin Yuan jumped out of it. Once it stopped marching, the temperature inside the carriage was higher than that outside. After all, there was still wind outside.
But Song Shizhao was reluctant to come down, he said that he was old and not afraid of heat.
Lin Yuan didn't force it either. Sometimes he didn't know what Song Shizhao was thinking.
Robben told him: "He just sweated a lot, and the reason he didn't want to come down is probably because the wind blows, we can smell it."
Lin Yuan: "...Isn't it more flavorful in a carriage?"
Robben: "People get older, sometimes they are a little..."
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment. He suspected that Song Shizhao might get Alzheimer's when he gets older.
It seems that I should find more work for Song Shizhao in the future. Maintaining frequent mental activities may be effective in preventing Alzheimer's disease?
The soldier brought two horses to Lin Yuan and Robben, and they could be humans on the open space. The principle is similar to the portable stool carried during fishing. The soldier looked at Lin Yuan with reverence and some fanaticism, but Lin Yuan can now be regarded as nothing.
Robben went out for a circle and brought back two cups of tea. Lin Yuan also looked around. The soldiers took off Fan Yang hats one after another, looking for a rest in the shade, and some of them were in a better spirit sitting around chatting and drinking. Order water, eat something, they were all assigned to a lot of butcher shops when they set off. They were chewy, the more they chewed, the more fragrant they were. Although there were no spices, the taste of the meat was enough to conquer their stomachs.
As for Chen Baisong and the others, they rested in a more forward position. The soldiers they led were cavalry and a little better-physical infantry. They had to distinguish their directions along the way, find suitable spaces for camping, and patrol the vicinity of the camp. Are there people or bandits?
This was supposed to be the job the scout was going to do, but this time because Lin Yuan personally set off on the expedition, their reaction was a little big.
Lin Yuan had also persuaded, but they all insisted, so Lin Yuan didn't waste his words on this.
Both Robben and Lin Yuan were sitting on the horse, because the ground was uneven, they were a little shaky when sitting on the horse.
Lin Yuan felt like he was sitting in a rocking chair. He said to Robben: "Who do you think Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun will win?"
Robben said seriously: "Xu Shouhui."
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Why?"
Robben: "Ni Wenjun's name is not righteous, he is raising soldiers, and the soldiers under his hands are also difficult to obey sincerely. In contrast, Xu Shouhui is the emperor. Ni Wenjun is not the only general underneath. Ni Wenjun is gone, and the others are just able to get ahead. What's more, the arrogant soldier will lose and the mourning soldier will win.
It seems that Xu Shouhui is at a disadvantage. Ni Wenjun is strong and strong, and he understands the distribution of forces in Xu Shouhui's hands. He seems to have a better chance of winning than Xu Shouhui.
Lin Yuan looked in the direction of Hanyang, as if he had seen Hanyang through numerous obstacles.
He was already thinking about what to do after he scored in Hanyang.
Just like what he did in Gaoyou and Taizhou, he first broke up the original political team, disrupted, and planted his own people.
The next thing to do is even simpler.
Lin Yuan smiled and shook his head, he also felt a little conceited.
Robben also saw Lin Yuan's smile and said strangely: "My lord, this is..."
Lin Yuan: "I'm just thinking, maybe one day, I will become a person you can't understand."
Robben: "Why does your lord say this?"
Lin Yuan laughed mockingly: "It's nothing."
Sometimes he feels that he thinks too much, and thinks less, but it will be more relaxed.
The soldiers lay on the ground on all sides, but even so, they are holding weapons in their hands. This is a habit brought to them by countless battles. Their sleep will not be very deep. If they feel threatened, they Even the eyes are not necessarily open, but the spear or knife is directly stabbed out.
"Killing in a dream" is very possible on the battlefield. People are mentally in a state of high tension, especially when their consciousness is not clear enough, instinct will take over the nerve response, and the survival instinct will control their behavior.
"There is a horse ahead!"
"There is a flag! It is our own soldier!"
A black horse is carrying a short man, and the man is holding a small flag to avoid accidental injury.
He jumped off his horse and ran in front of Lin Yuan with strides: "Report to the Nan Bodhisattva! We have encountered a large army and are also heading to Hanyang! Let the Nan Bodhisattva decide!
Lin Yuan pursed his lips: "Whose soldiers and horses?"
Man: "Sun is written on the flag. It should be Sun Deya's soldier."
Lin Yuan: "How many people?"
Man: "Roughly speaking, it should be one hundred thousand."
Now Sun Deya has replaced Guo Zixing and took over Guo Zixing’s influence. His personality is completely different from Guo Zixing’s, so he will stare at Hanyang, which is not surprising. He is a greedy person, and greedy people will never dislike him. The land and power in his hands have increased.
Lin Yuan: "Tell them, I will use Sun Deya's soldiers to practice hand training, the backup will be there soon and leave them for me."
