Because Xia Zhi and Gao Zhou were presiding over the situation outside, the people did not mess with the officials and their families.
But on the way to the escort, there was still a big hole in a young lady's clothes, revealing a large area of her fair back.
Xia Zhaoyi whispered in Zhang Ji's ear. Zhang Ji nodded and pointed at the young lady's clothes: "Who can pull it off?"
"Me!" A man stood up.
"And I!"
"This bitch deserves to die!"
"She is the eldest daughter of that dog official!"
"The clothes are so thick in winter, how much force does it take to tear such a hole," Zhang Jisurong said, "If you have a reputation, you can't do anything wrong. Pull it down, each with twenty big pieces."
Several people were shocked.
"Why, General, why are you hitting us!"
"General, spare your life!"
Zhang Ji looked at the trembling people on the ground. He was really unwilling to do so, but he had to let go.
Now, the people around him were even more dissatisfied.
"Have you forgotten that Lifeng County was conquered by us today?" Zhang Ji was furious, "You dare not show your courage to resist the original government. To our troops who came in with big swords, your voice was even worse.
A bang?! Why do you think we won’t do it more ruthlessly? Let’s kill him!”
Everyone was as silent as a cicada, looking straight at Zhang Ji.
"Send them back!" Zhang Ji said again, "Go home and stay well. No one is allowed to come out under the curfew tonight. We will increase our manpower to patrol the streets and kill everyone we see!"
When Xia Zhaoyi saw someone in the crowd coming forward and telling the officials and their families on the ground to get up, she took a deep breath and turned around to go back.
Looking up, he saw Su Yumei at the door. Xia Zhaoyi stepped forward: "Miss Su."
"These people are even more scared now," Su Yumei frowned slightly, "They actually have hatred in their hearts, so that's why they are like this."
"Go back to the house and rest." Xia Zhaoyi said.
"Yes." Su Yumei nodded, turned around, and looked towards the houses further away.
Before entering the city, she discovered that the frost and snow that had yet to melt were thickly covering the large huts, and most of those huts were collapsed, collapsed one by one, and many were burned to the ground.
The ruins at the end are shocking.
After Qian Xianmin captured Huazhou, the guest officials all said that they should treat the people of Suhe County well, so Qian Xianmin did not prohibit the crossing of Zushui River between Suhe County and Panzhou.
The people of a whole county can make white porcelain in exchange for money as long as they are given a little sweetness.
Over the years, the high taxes in Suhe County have allowed Qian Xianmin to wear fine clothes and enjoy supreme wealth. Now in Lifeng County, he can see a corner of the troubled times.
The next day, just like in Suhe County, all the officers were beheaded. The difference this time was that Zhang Ji asked the county officials who watched their heads fall to the ground to collect the bodies.
He also warned that if these county officials dared to do anything to the people who kidnapped their families last night after they left, they would not only be beheaded next time, but also be imprisoned.
After processing, the army continued to leave, but contrary to everyone's expectations, Xia Zhaoyi did not continue eastward, but returned to Suhe County.
Unknown to the county magistrate of Suhe County, Qian Xianmin was also frightened when he received the news a few hours later.
In order to deliver the letter, how many horses were broken down, Qian Xianmin was anxious and angry, but he had no way of knowing who the other party was.
"We are being teased!" Qian Xianmin threw things on the table everywhere, "It's been so long and I still haven't figured out who the other party is. You are all idiots!"
However, this is just the beginning.
Next, the entire northwest and southwest of Huazhou seemed to have become Xia Zhaoyi's playground.
Go to this city today, and go to that county or village tomorrow.
When I feel better, I go back and walk again.
He appears and disappears, and no one can stop him.
Because they did not disturb people's property or rob people of food, the people in the city especially welcomed their arrival.
In eight days, the entire military and political system in western Huazhou was completely paralyzed by Xia Zhaoyi.
Qian Xianmin's troops exposed their biggest shortcomings in history: insufficient mobility, insufficient flexibility, and insufficient loyalty.
However, Qian Xianmin was all short of manpower. If he had enough manpower to hoard troops everywhere with a crushing force, he would not be able to allow the opponent to appear and disappear without anyone stopping him.
"Report!!" The messenger's voice sounded again.
Qian Xianmin was about to die suddenly, so he gritted his teeth and said: "If this is not a good letter, just shut up and get out!"
The messenger frowned: "Your Majesty, this letter has nothing to do with our army, but I don't know whether it is good or bad."
"You say," Feng Keqing said, "whether it's good or bad, you say it."
"Yes!" the messenger said, "The day before yesterday, Tian Dayao's soldiers and horses raided Panzhou and quickly occupied a large number of cities from the northwest to the central part of Panzhou. The Jiangnan barracks urgently mobilized troops. The two sides held a stalemate outside Liujing Mansion and handed each other letters of war!"
Everyone was stunned.
"Why did he suddenly come to attack Panzhou?" Qian Xianmin was dumbfounded, "Could it be that the troops that were randomly obtained in Huazhou are from Tian Dayao?"
Feng Keqing said: "If Panzhou is attacked, it will definitely destroy our Huazhou. To the north of Huazhou is Baoyi, and past it is Mouye. Tian Dayao's move is to prepare for the battle of Mouye."
"Destroy our Huazhou..." Qian Xianmin suddenly stepped forward and raised his foot to kick the messenger.
Fortunately, the deputy generals and Feng Keqing on both sides stopped him.
"This news, you tell me, I don't know whether it's good or bad?! This is bad news!"
"Your Majesty! Calm down!" the crowd shouted.
"Report!!" Another messenger's voice sounded outside.
Qian Xianmin turned pale with fright.
When Feng Keqing saw this, he stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?!"
"That army of soldiers and horses, they are coming towards Star-Gathering City!"
Feng Keqing quickly turned around and looked at Qian Xianmin.
Qian Xianmin regained his composure and shouted angrily: "Well done! You must come. I will kill him right now. He has only a thousand soldiers and horses, hiding their heads and showing their tails. You are teasing me for waiting for so long. I am so stupid these days."
, give it all at once!"
The meeting hall quickly mobilized manpower, and all the soldiers immediately left to mobilize troops.
Waiting until the next day, Qian Xianmin waited for the urging "Report!!"
The messenger soldier knelt outside the door tremblingly, not daring to come in. He told him that the troops had bypassed the pursuit, killed three hundred people, and headed southeast.
Qian Xianmin immediately asked someone to chase him. Feng Keqing said solemnly: "Our army only has five thousand light cavalry. We can't catch up with the soldiers running on both feet in the city."
"What do you say?" Qian Xianmin shouted.
"There is chaos in the east of Huazhou. Your Majesty, let this army go over and fight with the Lin family. We will sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers, and watch them fight to the death."
"I think they were beaten unilaterally," Qian Xianmin suddenly calmed down, "That's fine. This army should leave Huazhou as soon as possible. Leave as soon as possible."
Feng Keqing stroked his beard, and the word "leave" moved him greatly.
In the past few days, Feng Keqing has been packing his clothes, ready to leave at any time.
When I first followed Qian Xianmin, I thought I could conquer the world with him, but I didn't expect that Lin Yao, who had the same title as Pei Feng, was so useless. Once he started to enjoy the blessings, he became content with the status quo and stopped making progress.
I think back then, when the world was in chaos and mutinies broke out, it was a good time to seize territory. It was also a peasant uprising. Look at Tian Dayao.
A pair of axes, powerful enough to fight side by side with such aristocratic warlords as Song Zhiyi and Yun Bozhong in Mouye.
Now they are heading south to directly attack Zhuang Mengyao's Jiangnan barracks.
As for other scattered peasant uprisings, they have been nothing more than waste in recent years. They were either wiped out, dispersed, or took refuge with a few major families.
The best opportunity has been missed, and now Qian Xianmin can only stay in Huazhou and wait for death. A mere thousand soldiers and horses can scare him out of his wits.
There is no hope of continuing to stay here. Feng Keqing is thinking whether he should take this opportunity to go south and seek refuge with Tian Dayao.
Across the vast plains, Xia Zhaoyi stood on the mountain, looking at the Star-Gathering City in the dark night.
There are scattered lights, the shadow of clouds shakes the moon, and there are only a few fireworks in the huge city. It is really cold.
She had been to Juxing City before and still remembered how beautiful this city was.
It's a pity that the troops are currently insufficient. Counting the surrendered troops collected along the way, the entire team now only has 2,300 people.
With 2,300 troops and horses, it will not be a problem to fight guerrillas and conduct surprise attacks. But if we really want to attack the city and seize the territory, it will be difficult to reach the sky.
A big falcon suddenly flew across the sky.
Xia Zhaoyi raised his eyes and saw that the call was really clear.
I don’t know if it’s the big falcon that usually flies in the sky, or a specially trained “messenger”.
If you are a messenger and can trust the big falcon, the first things that come to mind are Master and Zhili.
It's been so long, it's time for her to receive the letter.
The next messenger stronghold is arranged in Yongwucheng, Huazhou.
