Chapter 7: The Barbarians Attack
According to the refugees, they came through the mountains, where the Hu people had already begun large-scale looting.
Guo Hao incorporated the young and strong refugees into the guard team, let the elders train them, and began to think about the next plan.
According to the intelligence from the refugees, there were at least one hundred looting Hu people, including a leader who was suspected to be a military general, which was several times more than the expected enemy.
Guo Hao couldn't help but frown, thinking about how to resist the enemies that might appear at any time.
It is unwise to confront the enemy head-on, and it is not okay to allow the enemy to kill you.
After much thought, Guo Hao couldn't come up with any good solution. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice.
Just when he was in distress, Mr. Guang came to visit him.
"Village chief, are you worried about the looting by the Hu people? I have a plan to solve this problem." Old Guang said shockingly.
"Tell me quickly!" Guo Hao was overjoyed.
"Why doesn't the village chief go to the county town for help?"
Guang Lao's words woke Guo Hao up. After all, he was a Han citizen. How could the county government just watch him die without helping him?
But on second thought, it's not that simple. How can we trouble the king's army to come to such a remote village?
Moreover, the Hu people have been looting for a long time, and the imperial court has not provided any help for such a long time.
Guo Hao was about to ask again, but he saw the villager next to Guang Lao holding a piece of exquisite fur, which was the fur of a giant tiger.
"Guang always talks about bribing the county magistrate?" Guo Hao asked excitedly, as if waking up from a dream.
"Village chief, it's a tribute!" Old Guang corrected Guo Hao's statement.
"Hahaha, yes, tribute, it is tribute."
Guo Hao suddenly realized that tiger skin is a very rare treasure, let alone a complete tiger skin.
Without saying a word, Guo Hao took the tiger skin and rushed to the county town overnight, not daring to delay for a moment.
The Hu people could come at any time, so he dared not waste time.
Beifeng Village is located in Liangzhou, and close to Beifeng Village is Fufeng County. Speaking of Fufeng, this is a good place where Ma Teng and Ma Chao, father and son, live.
Unlike reality, [War Civilization] certainly cannot really extend the time period to be as long as the Three Kingdoms, so almost all the generals appear in their prime.
This basically eliminates the idea of players wanting to seize the initiative and cultivate powerful generals from an early age.
Although these generals will advance according to the course of history and gradually step onto the historical stage, and there will not be any outrageous plots like Deng Ai fighting Zhang Jue, it does not mean that they do not exist. The system will restrict their activities near their birthplaces and wait for the process to advance.
If the player now wants to go to Fufeng to kill the young Ma Chao, you will understand how Cao Cao "cut off his robe and beard" at the beginning.
These are all later stories. Guo Hao’s number one enemy now is still the roaming Hu people.
With the village chief's official seal, Guo Hao successfully met the county magistrate.
Led by the guard, Guo Hao stepped into the county government office. A burly man was sitting there, looking at him indifferently.
Although he didn't make any movement, Guo Hao felt as if there was a sharp edge on his back. Although he looked strong and sturdy, he exuded an unspoken pressure.
Guo Hao handed the bag to the county magistrate's personal guard and said, "My Lord, I came across a large insect and got a complete tiger skin. I am here to present it to you."
The county magistrate was a little surprised. Not everyone can deal with a big tiger, let alone a complete tiger skin, which is a rare treasure that can't be found by chance.
He took Guo Hao's bag, opened it, and saw a piece of exquisite tiger skin that he couldn't let go.
The magistrate of the neighboring county presented a damaged tiger skin to the prefect last time and received a lot of rewards. This complete tiger skin will definitely be better than that.
The county magistrate was very happy to receive the gift: "Nice things, what reward do you want?"
When Guo Hao heard this, his eyes lit up and he knew that borrowing troops was almost certain.
"Please save Beifeng Village from the danger. Our village has suffered from the Hu people for a long time!" Guo Hao cried immediately.
When the county magistrate heard that they were just a bunch of Hu people, he naturally agreed to Guo Hao's request to borrow troops.
After all, for Guo Hao, the troublesome Hu people were just a trouble that he could not kill, but it was just a trouble. He was too lazy to pay attention to them in the past. Now that someone came to him with gifts, he sent people to clean them up, which was also a big achievement .
If the higher-ups are happy by then, they might transfer him away from this desolate and desolate place.
Guo Hao felt at ease with the soldiers sent by the county magistrate. These soldiers were not the hunters in the village, and they had additional attribute bonuses when fighting against the Hu people.
(5 people make a squad, 2 squads make a squad , 5 squads make a team, 2 teams make a village, 2 villages make a group, 2 groups make a division, 5 groups make a battalion, 5 battalions make an army, and 1 army has 11,381 people.)
[Troops]: Hanjia County Soldiers (Force 19-20)
[Number of people]: 113
[Morale]: 80 (full of confidence)
[Features]: Form a battle array, one Han can defeat five Hu
"Form a formation: When forming a military formation, the force is increased by 3."
"One Han against five barbarians: When fighting against the barbarians, military strength and morale rise."
The county soldiers' fighting power was a little beyond Guo Hao's expectations, and the assessment of their fighting power made Guo Hao a little confused.
But what is certain is that a few county soldiers could form a battle array and hang him up and beat him. With such a garrison of county soldiers, Beifeng Village could treat the Hu people as nothing.
Coincidentally, the village chief was the sergeant who had been rescued by Guo Hao before. He was promoted based on his military achievements.
It is easier to get things done with acquaintances, so the village chief promised to agree to some of Guo Hao's small requests.
"Please give me your instructions, benefactor. I will do whatever you ask."
The passing of the county soldiers attracted the attention of a large number of refugees, who quietly followed the troops, as if this would give them a sense of security.
It has to be said that in the land of the Thirteen States in the Central Plains, the sense of security brought by the Han army is indeed incomparable to anything else.
After arriving at Beifeng Village, these refugees knelt down and begged Guo Hao to take them in. Guo Hao naturally accepted them. For him, the more people the better.
An increase in population is certainly a good thing, but the food problem caused by Mr. Guang once again made Guo Hao a little anxious.
The food consumption in Beifeng Village is huge, and the county soldiers are all big meat eaters with amazing appetites.
The population has increased several times, but the food supply that allowed Beifeng Village to safely survive the winter has gradually run out. Even the hunters going into the mountains to hunt every day has been of no use.
Guo Hao was extremely eager to have a military advisor who could give him advice, let alone Crouching Dragon or Phoenix Chick, even Fang Yue or Wang Kuang would do.
Unfortunately, although these people seem to be of low status in history, if you pick out any famous historical figure, it would be as easy to crush Guo Hao as to crush an ant.
Even Fang Yue, who was killed instantly by Lu Bu's halberd at Hulao Pass, was a general with four to five hundred men under his command.
Fortunately, just when Beifeng Village was about to fall into a food crisis, the Hu people finally arrived.
The sentries arranged by Guo Hao around the village discovered the movements of the Hu people. Guo Hao hurriedly asked the county soldiers to hide, for fear of scaring away the Hu people. He spent so much money not just to deal with these Hu people.
