The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 64

[Chapter 64 Cleaning]

The soldiers in the city are completely rotten.

In other words, they were not soldiers at all, they were just a group of farmers who had been taken by the county magistrates and brought in as farmers.

Seeing the murderous soldiers, they were as ferocious as tigers and wolves. Those who had never seen blood threw down their weapons on the spot and surrendered directly by hitting the white flag.

The county magistrates of the county government were also too timid, they didn’t even dare to say a cruel word, their legs went soft, and they knelt down in front of the cavalry, begging for mercy.

Shangyong County, Fangling County, and the magistrates of those two counties were not in the least bit of integrity.

It seems that the living environment will also corrode a person’s mind, making an upright person slowly become a greedy waste.

This kind of county magistrate, looking at him one more time, feels that his eyes are dirty.

He casually ordered his subordinates to drag them down, kill them and feed the dogs, without paying any attention to the pleas and flattery of the county magistrates and many officials around him.

He calmed down the entire county very easily, which was beyond everyone’s expectations, but also made him very happy.

If the counties in the future are like this, then your strategy of conquering the entire Hanzhong seems to be easily achieved.

In the previous two counties, Shangyong and Fangling, the magistrate’s determination to resist, and the spirit of swearing to the death, almost made you Zhong Yu think that the counties in the future are like this.

If you were accidentally discovered by someone like this, how much effort would it take to beat him step by step?

Let me just say, how is it possible that all the officials are so good, and if the officials are not greedy, then they are not good officials.

It turned out that those two were just a special case.

After a little bit of consolidation of the situation in the county seat, 200 people were left to look after them.

By the way, clean up the green-skinned rogues who took advantage of the fire, and kill all these people, so as to avoid a lot of trouble in the future.

It’s better to take advantage of the war and thoroughly sort it out, that’s not better.

He said his 100 cavalry, six hundred soldiers.

Go to clean up the dense gentry that spread all over the West City.

If this kind of deep-rooted local noble family is not cleaned up, how can I dare to bring troops to conquer it with confidence!

If you kill them, you can also get a lot of property, land and real estate, which can be used to reward loyal and brave soldiers and capable civil servants who are loyal to them.

You don’t even have to worry about the money for the next few decades. As long as you keep killing those nobles, they will have their accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years. What a wealth of wealth it is.

They didn’t encounter much resistance. Those gentry were okay to study and learn, but it was not enough to go to war in the army.

He had never been in contact with military affairs at ordinary times, and he was surrounded by his own army without realizing that the surrounding atmosphere was wrong.

He easily destroyed their manor city defense, captured the entire clan, and killed everyone cleanly.

However, there are more gentry in the entire Xicheng, there are more than 20 families, and the population is tens of thousands.

It would take him two or three days to kill the seven hundred people by himself. It seems that he will be delayed here for a while.

Time passed slowly, and Zhong Yu’s plan was also executed in an orderly manner. One by one, the manor was tricked into opening the city gate and breaking the defense.

Then, the soldiers who had been preparing for a long time, who were sharpening their fists, rushed in with sharp blades, killing anyone they saw, and slashing when they entered the door.

Show no mercy at all, and the methods are even more ruthless, from the elderly with gray hair and inconvenience, down to the baby waiting to be fed.

They were also cut in half, took off their heads, and piled them to the gate of the manor.

There was blood all over the place, and the cries were called out all night.

The whole manor became gloomy, and the surrounding villagers dared not approach for several months.

It wasn’t until the county magistrate took office, who decided to distribute the entire manor to the soldiers who retired from the battlefield, and then gradually gained popularity. I think only those soldiers who were used to seeing life and death, and saw many dead people. Be fearless!

This process of cleansing and slaughter lasted for three days, until the entire Xicheng County was filled with murderous energy and blood, and the ghosts were flying everywhere, and the air in the entire county was a few degrees colder.

All the people were terrified by the slaughter.

Zhong Yucai stopped his cleaning, why should it stop?

That’s because the entire county has been killed, and all the nobles have been completely killed, and there is no need to continue.

Tens of thousands of heads are piled up on both sides of the road. They will last for half a month, so that people in the entire county will understand the fate of your actions, and then they will be arranged to be burned down.

But the results were also gratifying. A large number of property and armor and food were taken out from the hands of which aristocratic families by Zhong Yu’s soldiers.

Hundreds of cars were loaded, and they were transported to the warehouse in the city and sealed up.

Zhong Yu calculated that the wealth can support an army of tens of thousands of people, the armor can arm more than 1,000 soldiers, and the food is enough to feed 100,000 people for a year.

It seems that his strategic policy is not wrong.

Not to mention how much wealth can a county, a county, a state and a family in the world accumulate?

Even if you are an enemy of the whole world, as long as you call out King Li Chuang at the end of the Ming Dynasty,

With the slogan of “No Grain, No Tax”, he uses the wealth of the gentry to support his army and administrative system. Then he can also gather a large number of people to support him and fight against those wealthy families.

I don’t believe that the bones of those gentry are really so hard that they are not afraid of encirclement and suppression by so many troops.

If this is the case, I really don’t mind really bloodbathing, and making a good fight for my own country.

What Taizu said, “Fight the local tyrants and divide the land.” “UU read www.uukanshu.com to win over the majority and strike down a small group.” Isn’t this the case?

As long as he imitates Zhang Jiao and attracts the majority of the people at the bottom, the wealthy gentry in the world who cannot survive being squeezed will definitely support him, turn their backs on those gentry, and become his most solid force.

And I just need to make them understand that fighting for myself is fighting for them.

I will give them a large part of the land and property they have acquired, and they will definitely do everything they can, just like the army of tigers and wolves in Qin State, Wen Zhan Xian.

Only those who have nothing will not care about their own lives, and those ordinary people are precisely those who have nothing and can’t even afford food.

As long as they master this power and occupy more than 99% of the world’s population, they will definitely make those 1% of the population understand that the mud legs they usually despise also have the desire to destroy everything.

Killed 10,000 people and gained 400 luck points, all of which were used by Zhong Yu to summon soldiers.

Another 800 soldiers are ready to go. After meeting these soldiers, they have 1,200 infantry.

There were only 200 guards left in the county seat, and Zhong Yu could be sure that after his own killing, the entire county seat was shocked by his monstrous might.

For at least a few years, they would not dare to rebel against their orders, let alone rebel.

One data can clearly explain the reason. Before the war, there were more than 50,000 people in Xicheng County, and after the war, there were only 40,000 people.

A war killed 1/5 of his people, how could they dare to have other ideas!

Aren’t you afraid of being the next person to die?

What’s more, they don’t have the gentry who are taking the lead, what kind of storms can they find!
