Turbulent Times Chapter 1425: A thousand dead men
The refugee affairs are almost busy, Wang Junlin went to Snake Island.
On the one hand, it is to visit Yang Lihua, the eldest princess who lives above and does not want to go to Fanyang County. On the other hand, it is planning to complete another major event with Nie Xiaoyu.
In the past two years, Nie Xiaoyu used Wang Junlin's forces to collect nearly ten thousand people with the most heinous crimes on Snake Island, and then trained them into dead soldiers through very extreme methods.
It's just that the death rate was very high, nearly half of the 10,000 people died, and more than 2,000 of the remaining 5,000 people became lunatics, and Nie Xiaoyu directly fed the big whale in the sea.
That's right, Nie Xiaoyu got a big whale from somewhere. And with a method that even Wang Junlin can't understand, let this big whale swim and live around Snake Island, never far away.
Wang Junlin knew that with the existence of this big whale, even if there were no defenders on Snake Island, it would be difficult for ordinary sailors to attack the island easily.
Because this is the largest whale in the world - a blue whale, the largest ship in the world is less than one-third of the size of this blue whale.
After Wang Junlin and Yang Lihua had been gentle and crazy for another night, they came to the camp of the dead with Nie Xiaoyu the next day.
More than 2,000 desperadoes were personally led by Nie Xiaoyu to study and train for a year, from military training, commanding troops, fighting, to geography, humanities, climate and other aspects of knowledge. Of course Their martial arts and killing skills will not be pulled down either.
At this time, the thousand dead soldiers stood in front of Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu.
Nie Xiaoyu selected these from more than 2,000 dead soldiers through his own method. Wang Junlin will send them to complete a very important and meaningful task-to open up the base of the Far East Army behind the enemy .
The expressions of the thousand dead men in front of him were extremely indifferent, and they exuded a cold and dead breath from all over their bodies. dead body.
"Willing to die for the lord!" A thousand men who were all dead soldiers, killers, and commanders knelt at Wang Junlin's feet. Icy breath.
"Now the world is in troubled times, I want to conquer the world, and a thousand of you will be the dark sons I sent out. The specific situation will be given to you by Xiao Yu
It has already been mentioned in the instruction manual, so I won't say more. People from the Military Intelligence Department will contact you in the follow-up to your actions, and of course they will send you some food, grass, weapons and equipment through various channels. "Wang Junlin said.
"The humble job understands!" The expressions of the thousand dead men were always indifferent, as if what they were going to do was not to escape death, but to play.
…
…
The thousand dead men were divided into fifty groups led by the group leader in groups of twenty, and quietly left Snake Island at night by sea boat.
They will be scattered in various parts of the Sui Dynasty, and will go to the designated areas for them. And the task they want to accomplish cannot be accomplished by bravery alone, but requires you to use your brains and wisdom to complete it.
Wang Junlin held a booklet in his hand and read it carefully. It was written by Nie Xiaoyu himself. It contained a strategy and a complete plan for a thousand dead soldiers to develop base areas behind the enemy.

……
The signs of the Great Sui's demise are becoming more and more obvious. Although Yang Guang and the Great Sui court also ordered the local county soldiers to suppress the bandits, and sent some government soldiers, but the suppression of the bandits was not good, and the thieves from all walks of life still continued unabated, and it was like a snowball. Similarly, the scale of thieves is getting bigger and bigger.
Furthermore, thieves continued to defeat the Sui army, conquer county towns, kill officials, and rob rich families in various places.
Only Zhang Xutuo led the county soldiers to wipe out many rogues, which dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the rogues in Shandong, but did not eliminate the main force of the rogues, but drove them from Shandong to other places.
But with the passage of time, these rogue bandits either annexed each other, or were absorbed by rebels such as Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu who had already formed a large scale before. Grass Valley, wherever it went, was like locusts crossing the border, greatly destroying the local society and production, and began to truly become the main cause of the collapse of the Sui Dynasty.
…
…
Luoyang, the Imperial Palace.
Yang Guang sat on the imperial couch, his eyes were bloodshot, he was sick and lacked energy.
Besieged in Yanmen County for more than a month, fearful, and then Li Mi of Wagangzhai broke through Liyang Cang, and then the trend of bandits became bigger and bigger, and even spread to the entire Sui Dynasty. Although Yang Guang is stupid and incompetent, he has always been motivated to be a good emperor, but now he is really desperate,
He really wanted to give up on himself, and he also felt powerless, so he could only worry too much and eat uneasy, which made his current complexion even more pale and green, and his cheeks were sunken.
"Yu Aiqing, Pei Aiqing!" After the important ministers finished their performance, they kept Yu Shiji and Pei Shiju in the hall as usual. Yang Guang looked at the two courtiers he was now relying on as pillars, and said numbly: "Don't you Let others know that I secretly started to plan my trip to Yangzhou and Jiangdu in the south of the Yangtze River, and leave Luoyang for the eldest grandson of the emperor!"
Yu Shiji and Pei Shiju bowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I dare you not to try my best?"
Yang Guang sighed, he was already tired of hearing and talking about such common clichés. More than a month ago, a Taoist priest told him that he wanted to kill too much, so the heavens punished him by destroying Tai Sui.
So, for more than a month, he tried his best to reduce his meals, lived in a side hall, prayed day and night, and fasted and bathed. Each meal only had two plates of seasonal vegetables, which were simple porridge and side dishes. All the meaty things are exempted, and of course there is no possibility of drinking.
His painstaking efforts are not insincere, but the sunlight outside the palace is still so dazzling, there are more and more rogues in the world, and the situation is still getting worse day by day.
……
……
Fanyang County.
There are only three people in the study of Prince Qin An's Mansion. Sitting at the head of Wang Junlin were Du Ruhui and Shen Guoer.
"My lord, Li Shimin from Taiyuan led an army of 20,000 troops out of Bingzhou and sent troops to other counties and counties in Hedong." They crossed the border in the name of chasing down rebels. There is no report of their continued march.
"There is a county between Hedong and Hebei." Wang Junlin flipped through the document in his hand, threw it on the desk, and cast his eyes on the large map hanging on the wall next to him. "Li Yuan and his son are really courageous...we can't wait any longer."
"The collapse of the Sui Dynasty is a matter of time. It would be strange if Li Yuan and his son didn't take the opportunity to expand their territory." Du Ruhui laughed.
Wang Junlin nodded and said: "Order the Tiger Battalion to attack Boling County, the Cyclone Battalion to be in charge of Hengshan County, the Steel Sword Battalion to be in charge of Zhao County, and the Iron Spear Battalion to attack Xindu County, let them do a good job according to their respective strategic goals. Ready to send troops at any time."
