The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 61

[Chapter 61 Fangling County]

He won a small city, although the city is not big, but it is his first foundation in the world of the Three Kingdoms.

After taking care of all the people and the guards in the city, Zhong Yu summoned 500 ordinary soldiers and stationed them in Dongxiang City and surrounding areas.

Although these soldiers are called ordinary soldiers, they are not comparable to those of the city guards in Dongxiang City.

Those city guards have been sparsely fighting for a long time, and they don’t usually train very much.

And these ordinary soldiers, they exercise every day and practice every three days.

I have also been on the battlefield once or twice, and after some blood, I am no longer a rookie.

With them guarding here, I can safely go to other places to conquer.

This time, he did not hide his figure.

Instead, he took his own 100 cavalry and 1,500 ordinary soldiers directly and directly and marched westward.

On the way, I do not know how many village pavilions were destroyed, and in less than a day they marched to the county seat.

At this time, the county guard had not received the news of his own advance, and he directly sent cavalry to raid the city gate.

Before they could react, their cavalry filled the county seat and began to hack and slash.

The scream of killing sounded, and although the guards resisted with all their might, they killed about 30 percent of their cavalry.

If the training is not strict and they have never been on the real battlefield, they will collapse immediately.

In ancient times, elite soldiers could hold up to five levels of casualties and not be defeated; ordinary soldiers could hold up to 30% casualties and not be defeated; armies that were not strictly trained would often be defeated at one level.

The training of these troops is not very strict, and it is very good to be able to insist on three-tier casualties and then rout while guarding the countryside.

But when they reach the limit of their psychological endurance, those who should be defeated will still be defeated, and everything is within their expectations.

The fighting soon subsided, and the county was scattered with its own soldiers, and it was guaranteed that no one would be able to escape.

The battle in the city was led by his 100 cavalry, ordinary soldiers vassalized, and quickly captured the county government, quelled the last resistance, and occupied a county territory for the first time.

The resistance forces in the entire county were eliminated by myself, and 500 people were sent to various townships to receive them.

A county was easily captured by him. Under this kind of power, how dare those small villages without a decent city wall dare to resist their own army, and are they not afraid of their own revenge?

A week later, the entire county was under its own control.

All major traffic roads have set up checkpoints in advance, and all those who intend to report that they have captured the county seat have been detained.

After that, these people will be assigned to hard labor for ten years as a punishment.

After finishing everything, Zhong Yu left 1,000 ordinary soldiers to guard Fangling County.

He took the remaining 1,100 people to Shangyong County. He planned to occupy as many cities as possible before the Han Dynasty discovered his power.

Going all the way, three days later, I came to Shangyong County.

Several village pavilions on the way were easily captured by him. Among the village pavilions, there was not even a regular soldier, and they saw thousands of them.

Connected together in the wild, from a distance, it looked like an overwhelming dark cloud, pressing down.

How dare they stop themselves when they have lost their courage.

When I came to the gate of the county town, it was the same old trick.

The cavalry dashed at first and hit the city gate by surprise.

When those guards couldn’t turn their heads, rush into the city first to seize the opportunity.

After entering the city, it was not an easy task for the well-trained and skilled cavalry guards to clean up those city gate guards who were neglected in battle and lost their courage.

There was another uproar, mixed with screams, and the sound of crying and shouting resounded in the city.

The soldiers commanded by Zhong Yu quickly eliminated the enemy and wanted to quell the riots in the city as soon as possible.

And along the way, he killed those green-skinned rogues who dared to come out and loot. He regarded this county as his property. These people dared to come out to smash, smash and kill. Isn’t this touching his own bad head, and he doesn’t look at his own knife sharpness? Unfavorable.

An hour later, the entire county was quiet, and all the guards were either killed or surrendered.

The county magistrates in the city also committed suicide. In the Han Dynasty, those civil servants had quite the backbone. Even in the last days of the dynasty, they were not like those in the Ming Dynasty who were scrambling to lick the legs of the barbarians of the Qing Dynasty.

Another county was captured by himself, and he already owns two counties.

Although it is said to be two counties, these two counties can be compared to four or five counties.

The population is also relatively large, about 70,000 or 80,000.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, natural and man-made disasters continued, wars broke out frequently, and countless people were displaced.

At the beginning of Emperor Ling’s ascension to the throne, the Han originally had a population of 40 million.

But since he ascended the throne, the Central Plains locust plague has been rampant, and the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers have been bursting.

Coupled with the constant rebellions in various places, the barbarians from all over the country entered the pirates, the people were displaced everywhere, and the loss of the population was very great.

Originally had a population of 40 million, but now I don’t know if there are still 30 million.

Another year would be Zhang Jiao’s Yellow Turban Uprising, and the population would plummet.

The princes of various places will find that there will be no one in their own territory to cultivate the fields and fight as soldiers.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, there were only a few million people in the whole world.

The number of people in a county is only three or four thousand, and now there is a county here,

There are twenty or thirty thousand of him.

Too much!

One county magistrate rules the territory of two or three counties. Many affairs are inconvenient and not conducive to governance. Zhong Yu plans to divide them into several counties.

Among them, Dongxiang and Nanxiang of Fangling County, and part of Beixiang were combined into one county, called Shuiqing County; the rest of the site was in Heyi County, called Guangqian County.

Shangyong County is also divided into two counties, the east is called Zhushan County, and the west is also called Shangyong County.

In this way, Shangyong, Shuiqing, Guangqian, Zhushan, and the four counties are combined into one county, so let’s call it Fangling county!

On average, a county has a population of more than 10,000, which is not bad compared to counties with a population of 10,000 in many parts of the Central Plains.

Having occupied Shangyong and Fangling counties, Zhong Yu had no strength to attack for the time being.

UU reading www.uukanshu.com can only stay in this place to recuperate for a month. After a month, those luck points are harvested, and they can be used to summon more soldiers and horses.

As for the governance of the county town, he is a rebel, and no one from a large family will come to rely on him, so he can only rely on himself and use the system to summon talents.

But since they can’t provide themselves with the slightest help, it’s useless to keep them by themselves, and they occupy so much farmland and population for nothing, and they don’t seem to pay taxes by themselves.

There was a look on his face that he looked down on himself, and he couldn’t understand them, where did the confidence come from.

Now, you are in control of their life and death, aren’t you afraid of slashing them with a knife?

Therefore, in order to temporarily obtain more money and food, liberate more people to pay taxes for themselves.

In order to get more luck points, you must know that killing a person can get it for a month, which is ten times the amount of luck points you pay.

After doing the math, the newly built Fangling County has a population of more than 60,000, and there are about 240 luck points per month in a year.

There are only 480 people used to summon soldiers and horses, which is far from enough for the next round of expedition.

The next time he wants to occupy the entire Hanzhong County, he will need at least 5,000 troops.

Counting the number of soldiers that can be summoned with luck points this month, there are only 2,480 soldiers, and there are still 2,520 soldiers.

This world is relatively low.

It takes two hundred and fifty people a month to get a little luck point, if you squeeze it all at once.

If you kill one person, twenty-five people can produce a little luck point.

I have to kill him nearly 30,000 people to get so many luck points.

Therefore, I was destined to be in Hanzhong County, and it was impossible to coexist peacefully with those aristocratic families.
