Chapter 435 Liu Yuanjin actually delivered it to the door
Chapter 435
Yang Qian was ordered to recruit troops in the Jianghuai area, and Yang Qian, the prime minister of Jiangdu County, was ordered to take on the important task of suppressing Liu Yuanjin and other rebels.
Fortunately, Yang Guang also knew the news. The land in the south of the Yangtze River was corrupted and the people were forced to join the army. Afraid of making the people more uneasy, he specially allowed the taxes and fees of Jiangdu County to be used to recruit soldiers without entering the capital.
With the tax revenue from the prosperous Jiangdu County, Yang Qian breathed a sigh of relief. At first, he was afraid that Yang Guang would start to make some extravagant moves and force himself to recruit.
Once you have money, it will be easier to do things, and Yang Qian's approach is even more amazing, with a name and a price.
The price for recruiting soldiers was written directly on the official document, and the officials in the sixteen counties of Jiangdu posted it everywhere and sent officers to read it out.
With real money and silver, it is natural that responders will come one after another. After all, these days, there are quite a few people who lick blood with their knife heads to gain fame.
In just half a month, 20,000 new soldiers were recruited. They all gathered at the Jiangdu Camp in the south of Jiangyang City to train day and night.
In March in the south of the Yangtze River, the greenery and flowers are in full bloom. However, Yu Wenkai is still bedridden and has not recovered from his illness.
Yang Qian, the second in command of Jiangdu County, was riding towards the north of Jiangyang City.
Since the beginning of the year, Jiangdu County has become stable and peaceful, and naturally there is no need to wear a helmet every time you go out.
Younger sister Li Xiuning has also faded away from her military uniform, but she is still dressed in a dashing and elegant outfit, with a bamboo hat on her head and a white gauze on her face.
As for the two young men, Li Shimin and Luo Shixin, they are finally starting to look more youthful and strong. Especially Luo Shixin, who is now sixteen years old, already tall and strong, and has a very strong physique.
Nowadays, his iron spear has become even more perfect. Xu Shiji and Cheng Yaojin, two green forest scum who used to bully and molest this young man.
Now I am no longer willing to continue fighting with Luo Shixin for fear of being humiliated by this young hero.
In particular, Cheng Yaojin is a shameless guy who claims to respect the old, love the young, and convince others with virtue.
And Lu Ban Li, also known as Li Erlang, is now more than fourteen years old. At least he has grown a lot taller and is no longer short and fat.
He looks like a stocky young man. He is becoming more and more proficient in archery and a spear in his hand. Under the guidance of Luo Shixin, who chopped off chicken heads and burned yellow paper, his strength value also increased greatly.
He has quite the demeanor of a young hero. Although he is still very out-of-the-box, he is at least much better than the original Li Ergou.
After leaving the city, we headed north for about five miles and came to a shantytown surrounded by bamboo and wood.
#####
The people living here are the more than 30,000 people, men, women, old and young, whom Tu Wanxu captured when he defeated Liu Yuanjin.
Eight thousand of them became the craftsmen who repaired Jiangdu Palace and Yang Palace.
And the remaining 20,000 people, old and young, cannot continue to be idle like this.
Fortunately, the land of the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers was covered with dense water networks, making it a good place to raise ducks. Yang Qian simply purchased a large number of duck seedlings and gave them to these people.
After receiving the news that Jiangdu County Magistrate came to inspect, the mayor of the newly established town, Li Zheng, the village elders and others also rushed outside the town to greet him.
Yang Qian then rode into the stronghold, where at least over a thousand people gathered, and they all fell to the ground.
"I led a group of people from Xinzhen to meet Yang Juncheng."
"Everyone, please get up quickly. There is no need to be polite. Please get up quickly..." Yang Qian rolled off his horse, helped up the group of people he led, and shouted loudly.
Then he asked angrily towards Magistrate Xiao of Jiangyang County who was accompanying him.
"We already agreed, but Yang just came here to have a look and left after a while. What are you doing?"
"No wonder County Magistrate Xiao. We heard that you, Yang Juncheng, were coming, and all the villagers wanted to come and meet you, this great benefactor."
The words of Mayor Lu, who has a gray beard, made the surrounding people of Zixin Town express their agreement frequently.
"Since you, Yang Juncheng, settled us here, you have sent us a large number of spinning wheels, looms, and many ducklings and piglets."
"They also sent us a large amount of food, which gave us a way to survive. It won't be long before we come to Xin Town and we can really change our ways and be self-sufficient."
The name Zixin Town was given by Yang Qian, which means to reform.
Of course, Yang Qian was worried that these captured people would become thieves again after releasing them back to their hometowns.
After driving Qing Zhuang to repair Yang Palace and Jiangdu Palace, Yang Qian finally organized these people into a town.
After several months, the results were finally achieved, and the counties south of the Yangtze River were at war.
They were naturally very happy to be able to live and work here in peace and contentment. Moreover, Yang Qian collected a large number of silkworm cocoons from various places, had a large number of spinning wheels and looms, and also brought in a group of weavers to help with guidance.
Let the female relatives among these 30,000 prisoners of war be able to reap benefits with their dexterous hands.
The old and the weak were responsible for raising chickens and ducks. In addition, the piglets sent by Yang Qian were all castrated.
The piglets are raised intensively so that they eat and sleep every day, and eat after sleeping, and their weight increases rapidly.
The entire Zixin Town really feels like an intensive agricultural product town from later generations.
And the men and women in the small town have jobs and receive generous rewards.
For Yang Qian, the young Yang Juncheng, these people who have transformed from prisoners of war and become ordinary people in Zixin Town are also full of gratitude to Yang Juncheng.
After a full hour's delay, Yang Qian left the town amidst the overwhelming thanks from the people of Zixin Town.
However, just as they left the town, they saw dozens of riders coming towards them, it was Brother Qin and others.
"Seeing the county magistrate, we have received urgent reports from Kuaiji and Yuhang counties. Liu Thief has raised troops and is coming north."
#####
Yang Qian never thought that Liu Yuanjin, who had been beaten so badly by Tu Wanxu and Duguji, fled to Jian'an County to live in eternity.
Unexpectedly, after hearing that Tu Wanxu had resigned and that the elite divisions of Zuotunwei had already returned to the east capital, they returned to the east capital.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that he finally got the opportunity to invade Jiangdu County, a prosperous and prosperous place.
So, they went all the way north, gathered their troops, and headed towards Jiangdu County to kill again.
"Is this guy crazy?" Looking at the map, Yang Qian sat in the Jiangdu camp. Hearing the changes in the military situation, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Before, they were all killed and crawling to Jian'an County, but now they are delivered to the door themselves."
Li Jing stroked his thick beard, looked at the map intently, and traced the marching path of the bandit army with his fingers.
"They came all the way north, and their power was even greater than before. When they were in Kuaiji County, there were only 30,000 bandits, but by the time they arrived in Yuhang County, they had already gathered 50,000 people."
"I'm afraid that by now, we should have entered Wu County."
"In ten days at most, the troops will once again reach Yanling, our important town in Jiangdu County on the south bank of the Yangtze River."
Yang Qian shook his head and glanced at a group of eager confidants.
"...Originally, I was still thinking about it after the training of our soldiers and horses in Jiangdu Camp was completed.
I went south to look for trouble with him, but I didn’t expect that he would actually send me here by himself.”
