There are indeed innocent people on these lists, but it is useless. They participated. Although they remained neutral, they did not notify them in advance, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
If they succeed, they will not lose anything, and they can even regain everything they once had. Although they cannot compare with those who were direct participants, they will also gain benefits.
Therefore, when they secretly opened the city gate last night, they actually knew it, but they did not inform them.
"The aristocratic family is intertwined, and none of you is innocent!" Jin Yao coldly ordered to be surrounded and killed.
"Can you keep the children of my clan? They are still young and don't know anything!" A clan leader looked at Jin Yao and begged.
"Kill!" Jin Yao replied coldly.
Baili Yun looked at Jin Yao, took a deep breath, and swung the butcher knife.
Even the old, weak, women and children were not spared.
As for the resisters, there are some, and they are not a few. They have already guessed this result after guarding the city gate.
Therefore, he set up hidden sentries of armored soldiers in his courtyard to resist the Dragon Guard's attack.
"There's no need to fight them head-on, burn them!" Jin Yao had no intention of letting these people live.
As a result, rockets and cans of fire oil were thrown into these tall courtyard walls, and the fire ignited in an instant and burned the entire courtyard to a white ground.
Long Wei watched all this indifferently. After last night's battle, their robes were either forever separated from heaven and man, or they were lying in the hospital.
The culprits of all this are these nobles!
Therefore, those who escaped from the sea of fire were mercilessly driven back by the Dragon Guard, and were buried alive in the sea of fire.
"How will we manage Dragon City without these nobles and officials!" Wu Rui and Chen Xian wanted to stop them, but Jin Yao wouldn't listen.
"Send an order to let the three elders of each township come out to take charge of the overall situation, or let each township recommend virtuous people to take charge." Jin Yao also knew that without these officials, Longcheng would also come to a standstill.
However, instead of letting these rebellious guys live, it would be better to replace them with a group of people they can trust.
"It's easy to deal with the local area, but it's just an alley. Longcheng is too big, and it's in charge of the two counties of Jiujiang and Dongting. The middle and upper-level officials cannot be elected from the countryside!" Chen Xian said.
What Longcheng lacks are officials who can dominate a county, not the lowest level officials.
"From now on, military control will be implemented in Longcheng, and the army will take over the government affairs of various places!" Jin Yao spoke again.
Chen Xian and Wu Rui could only nod, this was also an expedient measure.
"In addition, not only Longcheng will be killed, but all noble forces in various counties and counties will be purged!" Jin Yao said while looking at Chen Xian and Wu Rui.
"Ah?" Chen Xian and Wu Rui were stunned.
They thought that sacrificing the nobles of Longcheng would calm Jin Yao's anger, but they didn't expect that it wasn't enough!
"Call Yingbu, Jibu, don't rush back to Longcheng. We must first eliminate the local aristocratic forces. I don't care if they are local good people or evil people. They will confiscate their property and distribute it to the local people on the spot!" Jin Yao didn't care!
Wu Rui and Chen Xian were shocked and continued to order.
"I don't care what you think, what I want is for the entire Jiujiang and Dongting to have only one voice!" Jin Yao said coldly.
"Here!" Wu Rui and Chen Xian had no choice but to draft military and political orders and convey them.
Xiang Yan looked at the map of Longcheng, and he and Jin Yao had an idea.
If there are opportunistic traitors in Dragon City, then there will naturally be traitors in Jiujiang and Dongting, especially those local nobles.
Therefore, besides besieging Longcheng, Xiang Yan also began to divide his troops to capture the counties and counties of Dongting in Jiujiang.
As long as Jiujiang and Dongting counties are conquered, Dragon City will become a rootless duckweed, an isolated city standing on the edge of Pengze.
The most important thing is that he needs to divide his troops to stop the returning Shadow Tiger Legion and Dragon Guard!
Especially the two cities of Zhu and Hubei. Once these two cities are recovered, it will be equivalent to blocking the return path of the Dragon Guard and Shadow Tiger Legion. They serve as horns to each other and can completely cut off the Dragon Guard and Shadow Tiger Legion from Dragon City.
It's just that Jin Yao's movements were obviously a step faster.
By the time the Chu army arrived at the gates of Zhu and E, the local nobles in the two cities had been killed. However, the local people who had taken charge of their own affairs blocked the Chu army's attack and held on until the Shadow Tiger Army arrived.
.
"Has your Majesty already expected this?" Wu Rui and Chen Xian looked at the battle reports in their hands and looked at Jin Yao in shock.
If they hesitated and deliberately delayed the issuance of military and political orders, leading to the fall of Zhu and Hubei, then Longcheng would be completely finished.
"Xiang Yan's mission is to conquer the two counties of Dongting in Jiujiang. Destroying Dragon City is the first choice. But if Dragon City cannot be destroyed, recovering the other counties becomes the first choice!" Jin Yao said calmly.
Why did Xiang Yan want to besiege Longcheng? Wasn't he just trying to turn Longcheng into an isolated city?
It's just that Xiang Yan's pride made him want to capture Longcheng directly, once and for all, so that he could lead his army back to Shouchun to garrison in the shortest possible time and to the greatest extent possible to prevent the Qin army from going south.
But Longcheng was a tough nut to crack. After Xiang Yan couldn't conquer it for a long time, he naturally had to conquer the other counties first.
In this way, Shouchun can also be given an explanation.
Otherwise, Xiang Yan led his troops out for so long, but only lost troops and generals without making any achievements. How could Shouchun and Xiong Qi not have other ideas?
"The next thing is to see Ying Bu and Ji Bu!" Jin Yao sighed.
In the coming days, Xiang Yan will definitely block all the main roads in Dragon City and not allow any news about Dragon City to spread.
The Chu army will also divide its troops to conquer the two counties of Jiujiang and Dongting.
But Jin Yao could only watch and could no longer take care of it. Even if the Mohist Suzaku conveyed orders, the battlefield was changing rapidly and Longcheng could not receive any information, so it was impossible to prepare in advance.
We can only place our hope on the Dragon Guard and Shadow Tiger Legion.
"Will Yingbu and Jibu be Xiang Yan's opponents?" Wu Rui and Chen Xian both hesitated.
After all, now Yingbu and Jibu will face Xiang Yan's commander-in-chief.
"Who knows?" Jin Yao didn't know whether Yingbu and Jibu could compare with Xiang Yan.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "We have lost contact with Dragon City!" Among the returning army, Ying Bu and Ji Bu looked at each other. This information had been sent out three days ago.
, and explained their current situation.
"Are you sure you can fight Xiang Yan?" Yingbu looked at Ji Bu hesitantly and asked.
Ji Bu shook his head. If they could compare with Xiang Yan, they would be the general of Chu State now, not Xiang Yan.
"You can't defeat us, but we can defeat you!" Ji Bu suddenly thought.
"???" Yingbu was stunned for a moment and looked at Ji Bu in confusion.
"Go to Wuguan and ask Li Mu, Lord Wu'an. If that doesn't work, ask Generals Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Wu, and Meng Tian from Qin!" Ji Bu said seriously.
I can't beat Xiang Yan, but that doesn't stop me from inviting someone who can fight you!
Li Mu, Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Wu and Meng Tian from Wuguan all looked at Ji Bu who rushed to Wuguan with confused expressions. They didn't expect that the other party actually came to invite them to fight Xiang Yan.
"Which one of you is going?" Li Mu has no intention of taking action personally. To be precise, the total number of Dragon Guard and Shadow Tiger Legions is only 120,000. Xiang Yan can only divide the troops into more than 100,000, which is not enough for 20.
Now he doesn't like Wan's list.
The most important thing is that he is already a very popular minister and has no title. If he continues to fight, he will be suspected of hindering the master, which is asking for death.
Therefore, as a leader, you must learn to share and support future generations.
Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Wu and Meng Tian were all eager to try, but they were hesitant, especially Meng Tian. He was not sure whether he could beat Xiang Yan now.
"Brothers fighting tigers, father and son are going into battle. I plan to go and meet Xiang Yan in person!" Wang Jian said with a smile.
"By the way, Bi'er just goes to study!"
Meng Wu glanced at his son, and then said nothing more. What they wanted was to kill Xiong Qi, not to fight Xiang Yan.
If the Wang family and his son can keep Xiang Yan this time, then they can directly lead their army southward and defeat Shouchun. Moreover, they also believe that the Wang family and his son can keep Xiang Yan in Longcheng!
