Chapter 192 Yanhao falls


Chapter 192 Yan Hao falls

“This is Tai Shi Ci of Donglai. Since you rebels have been defeated, why not surrender as soon as possible!”

Tai Shi Ci stepped through the dark night and emerged from the dark streets. He rushed out, and arrows shot out from his hand, hitting Zheng Wang and others directly, either dead or injured.

Following this, more than fifty riders galloped out of the street.

Originally, the streets could only accommodate two horses at most, which was not conducive to the cavalry.

But Tai Shici took the lead, and with a series of special skills, the soldiers of the Zheng family were thrown off their backs. For a moment, the team became chaotic.

More and more knights rushed out of the street entrance and entered the wide open space of the city gate, followed by Taishi Ci rushing into the crowd.

This suddenly turned into a tiger rushing into the sheep, driving the broken troops to charge and kill.

The Zheng family's story originally originated from the battle of salt, and there was no military discipline at all. In addition, Zheng Wang was the first to be shot, and the entire team collapsed directly. The remaining soldiers were driven by the knights and fled through the city gate.

The two hundred people at the city gate were not even hot when they saw their companions who had just left retreating back, and they were shocked.

The leader wanted to stop the defeated soldiers, but he didn't expect that as soon as he shouted, his throat was blocked by a sudden cold arrow.

Now even the Zheng family at the gate of the city is in trouble. Someone smart wants to open the gate and escape.

But Taishi Ci was staring at the city gate. Anyone who dared to enter the doorway and touch the gate would surely die.

Unable to fight and unable to escape, the Zheng family began to surrender one after another.

In a short time, more than 500 people dropped their weapons, squatted or knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Only then did Bao Hu rush to the city gate with two hundred soldiers and two hundred members of the Mi family.

Looking at the Jiangjun who was already kneeling on the ground, and the god-like Taishi Ci among the Jiangjun, Bao Hu secretly thought to himself that his Sima Han was not afraid of death and was very brave, as if Tiger tigers are generally unstoppable.

Every time we are at the vanguard, we are invincible, and those who dare to stand in the way will either die or be injured.

Bao Hu thought that the most powerful generals in the world were just like this, but he did not expect that General Taishi was even more powerful than Sima.

Just when Bao Hu was secretly speechless, Taishi Ci also discovered him.

"Marquis Bao, you are responsible for guarding this place, and these prisoners are also under your control. Do you have any questions?"

After Bao Hu was called, he immediately puffed up his chest and answered. He said: "General, please rest assured. Tiger will do his best to guard the south gate."

"Shan."

Tai Shici nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "You give way first." They gathered the prisoners and then opened the city gate."

After saying this, Taishi Ci turned around and nodded at the two knights behind him: "Wang Ru, Li Tan, after you two leave the city, go straight to the harbor. , please Dong Xi and Gan Ning to send troops immediately. At the same time, report to the young master that the rebels besieging Mi Mansion have been defeated and the south gate has been set. Please rest assured and good news will be delivered tomorrow."

Gan Ning and Dong Xi are now commanders of other departments, each in charge of their own troops.

"I obey the general's orders!"

The two people whose names were called stayed, and the remaining people followed Taishi Ci on the white horse and silver armor and galloped towards the west gate.

**********

“What did you say?”

Gan Zhen felt that he suddenly couldn't understand people's words.

Just half an hour ago, he easily took over many key departments such as the county government, arsenal, and granary, with almost no resistance.

What made him even more excited and happy was that more than a dozen small salt wealthy families were on their side without exception, each contributing their own efforts, ranging from hundreds to dozens to more than a dozen people. Nearly a thousand people came together to listen to Gan Zhen's orders.

For a moment, Gan Zhen was so proud that he felt that his army was strong and he could easily expand his army by 10,000 people once he captured Qu County.

The city of Qu County is high and the pond is deep, and each salt merchant has the habit of stockpiling food. Even if Liu Bei sends troops to attack, they only need to defend the city and they can easily defeat the opponent.

The only thing Gan Zhen is worried about is the Mi family. In his opinion, in the entire Qu County, the Mi family is the most troublesome. The chief officials of other county offices and the guards at the city gate are not afraid of them.

The Mi family, who is on Liu Bei's side, has at least a thousand troops, and is well-equipped and well-trained.

Even if brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang took away a lot, at least half of it would still be left in Mi Mansion.

Once a head-on confrontation comes, Wang Yu may not be able to get in.

It was for this reason that he asked Wang Yu to use sneak attacks.

As long as the door is opened by cheating, Wang Yu's numerical advantage can be used.

Just when he was hesitating whether to send some people to Mi Mansion to help, Wang Yu's men retreated.

Two pieces of bad news were brought to Gan Zhen at the same time.

The first bad news is that Wang Yu was captured alive by the other party.

The second bad news is that the opponent has armored soldiers, and there are a lot of armored soldiers.

As for Zheng Wang, he had been beheaded by Tai Shi Ci, because at that time, the Wang family had already dispersed and fled, and no one could see this scene.

"Gong Gan, what should we do?"

The heads or heirs of several small family families gathered around Gan Zhen. They looked flattering just now, but now they are already They became worried, and one or two even had a cold glint in their eyes.

Gan Zhen's heart perked up and he hurriedly said: "Don't panic, everyone. This old man from the Mi family has hidden iron armor and has evil intentions. He should be punished according to the laws of the Han Dynasty. Wang Yu's crime is not a war, but a weapon, a staff, or weapons. Not as good as the other party. For a big event, I also have fifty soldiers, all of them are fierce men, who can defeat the Mi family."

Because of the darkness, Pan Zhang and others defeated the Wang family. It was so fast that the Wang family's defeated troops didn't actually see how many armored soldiers there were. They just knew that these armored soldiers were vicious and would kill anyone they saw. However, their own counterattack was like a bull in the sea, unable to break through the opponent's defense at all.

Therefore, Gan Zhen actually did not know that Pan Zhang had a total of 500 armored soldiers. He only thought that these people were part of Mi Zeng, and the armor they were equipped with was collected by Mi Zeng like him.

It was also because of this that he was able to calm everyone with confidence and sent out fifty armored soldiers who were at the bottom of the box.

In addition, Gan Zhen also had an idea. In addition to sending three hundred soldiers including fifty iron warriors, he also coerced these little salt tycoons to send out elites and gathered a thousand people to attack the Mi family again. attack.

The leader of this attack, Gan Zhen, was handed over to his grandson Gan Long.

Ganlong lost his father when he was young and was raised by his grandfather Gan Zhen.

This time I followed Gan Zhen out just to accumulate merit and reputation.

If this rebellion succeeds, the Gan family will have to divide itself into one party. Gan Zhen will naturally want to let Qian Long gain experience as soon as possible.

Gan Zhen originally thought well. This uprising was not only foolproof, but also had no risks. It was extremely suitable for Qian Long to brush up his qualifications.

But who would have thought that the old man of the Mi family could hide so deeply. The defeat of Wang Yu's useless thing made these little salt wealthy families a little shaken.

Gan Zhen was really afraid that these little salt tycoons would betray him if he didn't let Gan Long take over.

Gan Zhen's idea was very good, but he overestimated his grandson and underestimated the ferocity of his opponent.

Qianlong led a thousand people along the main road in the center of Qu City towards Mi Mansion in the south of the city, but happened to bump into Pan Zhang who was maneuvering towards the north gate.

The two sides met directly in the middle of the long street, and a fierce and short encounter broke out.

Qian Long, who was walking in the middle of the team, watched helplessly as the vanguard of fifty soldiers was killed by a vicious soldier who broke through the formation.

The long street in Qu County is already very spacious, enough to accommodate two horses running parallel, or five or six people lining up in a row.

As a result, the fifty armored soldiers at the forefront of the Gan family were ten rows deep.

But this man actually killed through the entire phalanx in just a quarter of an hour. The black mysterious armor on his body was almost dyed dark red, just like the fierce ghost mentioned in Buddhism.

Because of Zuo Rong, Xuzhou at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was considered the largest soil for Buddhism. Even wealthy noble families like the Gan family have dabbled in Buddhist scriptures.

For this reason, before Qianlong was split in half by Pan Zhang, he murmured to himself that the evil spirits in hell were actually real.

More than half of the leading armored warrior was killed, and Gan Long, who was supervising the formation, was split into two. How could these makeshift soldiers dare to fight again.

With a coaxing sound, he shouted and ran away. Pan Zhang was a little surprised. When he collided head-on, he was also startled by the other party.

A black mass of armored soldiers, this kind of battle does not happen often.

Pan Zhang once thought that the salt tycoons had invited some foreign aid, and they were not ordinary people.

If nothing else, the one who can produce so many soldiers must be at least a hero.

When the two sides came into contact and exchanged hands, Pan Zhang was keenly aware of each other's flaws.

These people on the other side seem to be very skilled. They have also seen blood and are experienced hands.

But the cooperation between them was very good. The most important thing was that the coordination in the military formation was quite low. Pan Zhang led a dozen soldiers to make a surprise attack, and they killed him with overwhelming force. Entering the opponent's line.

After being thrown into the formation by Pan Zhang, the armored warriors on the opposite side were completely disorganized. They neither organized a strong counterattack nor coordinated the front, but stared blankly at the gap opened by Pan Zhang. It gets bigger and deeper, and finally comes out directly through the formation.

“Don’t worry about these people, let the Mi family peel off the armor and take them away, let the others run away. Our goal is still the north gate!”

Pan Zhang's order was quickly conveyed, and he continued towards the north gate with three hundred armored soldiers. The Mi Family Trilogy spent some time, stripped off their armor and chased Pan Zhang.

By the time Dong Xi, Gan Ning, and Jiang Qin entered from the south gate of Qu County, the north, west, and south gates had all fallen into the control of the Xuzhou Army.

Fortunately, Gan Zhen, who was dumbfounded in the county government, was left unsolved, and was given to General Dong Xi by Tai Shici.

Before he was captured alive, Gan Zhen wanted to set fire to the granary and arsenal, but was saved by Gan Ning and Jiang Qin. Dong Xi stormed into the county government and captured Gan Zhen and a group of young salt tycoons alive. Family leaders.

A rebellion was easily suppressed, and the Yanhao Group, an important group in the East China Sea, was wiped out.

In fact, this is also common sense. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the special system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, this was destined to be an era of novices pecking each other.

It is no exaggeration to say that the warlord war in the late Eastern Han Dynasty was far inferior to the Chu-Han War, not to mention the Western Han Dynasty's conquest of the Huns.

If a salt tycoon group like Qu County had the care of princes, kings and officials during peacetime, it would naturally be extremely domineering. But once they really take action, it's just a group of private soldiers who don't know how to fight. How can they stop the experienced Xuzhou Army.

By the time Liu Feng accompanied Mi Zeng and Mi Yue into the city, Chen Jiao, Xu Xuan and others who entered the city first had already made preliminary statistics on the gains of the counter-rebellion.

Only the wealth confiscated from the homes of more than a dozen salt tycoons in Qu County, including hundreds of millions in cash, countless gold, silver and cloth, as well as a large number of fields, shops, and workshops, Forestry and other industries.

In addition, the grain depots of these families are also full of various grains. According to Zhuge Jin's rough inspection, at least more than 600,000 shi were taken out. This is the biggest bargaining chip for Gan Zhen and others to dare to defend Qu County and fight against Xuzhou.

In addition, there are 240,000 stones of coarse salt, more than 120 large and small ships, more than 30 war horses, and more than 3,000 other livestock of various kinds, including 1,000 cattle. More than two hundred heads.

In addition, the Xuzhou army also captured more than 4,000 strong men, with 76 collars in iron armor, more than 2,000 collars in leather armor, more than 80 crossbows, more than 30 longbows, and 16,000 long swords. There are more than 2,000 spears, 4,000 spears, 200 iron shields, 800 leather-covered wooden shields, and 20,000 sets of clothing of various colors.

As for the male and female servants, singers, dancers, prostitutes, etc., there are also thousands of them.

Just looking at these preliminary statistics, Liu Bei and his son can be called a wave of fat.

It is no exaggeration to say that the combined wealth of these salt tycoons is equivalent to ten years of taxes in Xuzhou today. This also shows how wealthy the salt tycoons of the East China Sea are.

It turns out that in time and space, these salt tycoons lived quite comfortably because Cao Cao had never reached the east coast of Xuzhou.

Later, because of the deadly feud between Xuzhou people and Cao Cao, Cao Cao had to let Xuzhou be managed by Zang Ba, who had been cooperating with the salt tycoons of Qu County for many years.

The fall of the East China Sea salt tycoons did not come to an end until Cao Pi usurped the throne and began to work hard to rectify the economy and re-nationalize huge monopoly interests such as salt, wine, and iron.

In Liu Feng's era, the East China Sea salt tycoons perished a full twenty-five years earlier, and all the savings inherited by these salt tycoons for hundreds of years fell into Liu Feng's hands.

Liu Feng was actually quite cautious before taking action. Not only did he mobilize a large number of elite soldiers, but he also took advantage of the fact that Xuzhou was stable and there was no fighting around him to take action.

If Gan, Wang, Zheng and others had not been too impatient to rebel, Liu Feng would have even wanted to wait until Uncle Guan arrived before taking action.

But the effect is not as good as it is now.

Everyone in Qu County knew that the salt tycoons suddenly started a rebellion, and the Xuzhou Army passively put down the rebellion, and no one could find fault.

Liu Feng returned to his loyal Qu County at noon the next day and settled in Mi Mansion again.

Although Mi Mansion had become an empty shell yesterday, only some beautiful maids and slaves were still in the manor.

But the Wang Family Trilogy led by Wang Yu was defeated by Pan Zhang at the beginning of the war, and Qian Long, who came for reinforcements later, even lost his life.

Therefore, the Mi Mansion, which was like a piece of unprotected fat, miraculously survived without being harassed by the rebels at all, let alone looted and robbed.

“After some strategizing, the young master, the bandits from the East China Sea came down with a drum and attacked Yanhao in Qu County overnight. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it.”

Chen Jiao was the first to congratulate him. , by the way, I offer you a rainbow fart.

Chen Jiao's figure is actually quite flexible. Historically, he dared to confront Emperor Ming at the Chancellery, but he did not dare to fight with Cao Pi.

It is nothing more than bullying that Emperor Ming is a normal person, and he can act like a courteous corporal and respect his veterans.

As for Cao Pi, he is essentially Cao Cao's biological son, even his schizophrenia is exactly the same.

If Chen Jiao dared to argue with Cao Pi, and if Cao Pi was in good spirits, he would probably just give him a compliment. If he was not in good spirits, he would be in trouble in minutes.

If you don’t believe it, you can ask Xiahou Shang, Cao Pi’s best friend and one of the most typical victims.

From this point of view, it is possible that Cao Rui should be called Yuan Rui.

Xu Xuan originally wanted to congratulate Liu Feng, but after hearing Chen Jiao's praise, he couldn't say the next words.

I could only snort coldly, and then turned to report other things: "Master, these are the harvests calculated by statistics. The confessions of some prisoners confirmed that a lot of property and materials have been hidden. At present, Under torture."

Speaking of the harvest, Xu Xuan was surprised and amazed.

He had no idea that Taishi Ci, Pan Zhang, Jiang Qin and other tribes did not commit any crime in Qiu, but Gan Ning and Dong Xi actually killed more than twenty of their subordinates because of their dirty hands and feet. Yin Zhenbao's cronies.

In Xu Xuan's opinion, this kind of military discipline is simply too strict.

It’s just that this kind of harshness is good.

For the first time, Xu Xuan was so pleased with the warriors. It would be great if all the warriors in the world were like these people under the young master.

Liu Feng opened the silk and looked through it. After a moment of thought, he said: "First allocate 1.5 million cash in cash and distribute it to the generals. Each person will receive 300 cash and 5 baht. As the rewards are distributed, the military officials will add one hundred coins for each level, and they will also pick some fat pigs, fat sheep, and fine wine to send to the camp, so that the soldiers can relax. "

Liu Feng has always been focused on improving Xuzhou. Various treatments for sergeants, but post-war plunder, corruption, and private possession of property are strictly prohibited.

Taishi Ci, Xu Sheng, Pan Zhang, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and other generals can be regarded as old people who followed Liu Feng. Even Pan Zhang, the most greedy and daring among them, was honest in this regard, that is, Unexpectedly, Dong Xi and Gan Ning would deal with the cronies who followed them so decisively.

"Mr. Chen."

Liu Feng shouted at Chen Jiao.

Chen Jiao immediately straightened up: "What are your orders, Master?"

Liu Feng said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, please ask Liu Gong more about the situation in Qu County these days. The former county officials also All of them are under the jurisdiction of Mr. Feng, who has already compiled a book. He wants to recommend Mr. to be the magistrate of Qu County. If nothing happens, the appointment of the state magistrate is already on his way to Qu County. "

When Chen Jiao heard this, he was immediately surprised and filled his heart: "How dare you do this."

Historically, Chen Jiao was first recognized as a meritorious officer by Chen Dengzheng, and he did difficult tasks.

Cite the most outstanding job to illustrate how difficult it is.

Run to Cao Cao who was fighting the Battle of Guandu to ask for reinforcements, and he also asked for reinforcements for Xuzhou Chen Deng, who was like cannon fodder for the vassal.

At that time, Cao Cao actually did not want to send reinforcements. In his opinion, it was best for Chen Deng and Sun Ce to die together.

Chen Jiaojian was able to handle such a difficult matter, and his talent was indeed quite impressive.

But the funniest thing is that before the reinforcements squeezed out by Cao Cao reached Guangling, Chen Deng had already used a strategy to drive Sun Quan home.
