There were originally 40,000 people in the capital and bandits in Xizhou City. Xie Xun sent more than 10,000 people there. Now there are nearly 60,000 people in the city. Xizhou and Jinzhou are both large cities in the Twelve States. At its peak, Xizhou had a population of 800,000.
, if 60,000 people could work together, they could gradually develop. After the grain and horse road was established, Xie Xun sent troops to open up wasteland.
Jinzhou is a land that was reclaimed from wasteland. It was originally fertile and fertile land, and reclaiming wasteland was relatively simple. Feng Shu was determined to establish commerce in Xizhou and become the center of the twelve states.
There are three cities in the south of the Yangtze River with a population of over one million. Zhongzhou is also a large city with a population of one million. Looking at the twelve states, only Jinzhou has a population of more than 600,000. It is difficult for Xizhou to develop. Fortunately, the resources are not scarce and it can attract people.
.Feng Yu sat on the hillside outside the city, looking at the Xizhou City with flames rising into the sky, and thought of Xie Xun.
I don’t know where Xie Xun is marching, and whether the escort of silver and grain is going smoothly. Yu Wenjing transferred Fang Chuning to Zhongzhou to garrison, which is very close to Ningzhou. Will he send troops to the twelve states to seize the opportunity? If so, the Second Young Master and Fang Chuning will
Are we going to fight each other?
Can she revitalize the trade and farming in the twelve states before the war breaks out?
Her confidence in the trade and agriculture of the Twelve Prefectures comes from the fact that Yanyang and Ningzhou cavalry cannot afford the disaster of war. If war breaks out, all the hard work will be in vain.
Feng Yu thought about the turbulent situation and missed Xie Xun more and more. She touched the Soul Suppressing Pearl and smiled softly. Although she was joking about tearing off the Soul Suppressing Pearl when she wanted to see Xie Xun, she would not do so easily for fear of delaying Xie Xun.
Something bad.
She couldn't sleep at night and played a tune.
Nuanyang, "..."
The cavalry garrison stationed outside the city, drinking and playing guessing games, said, "Which bastard has learned half-heartedly and disturbs the people in the middle of the night? Go and tell him to stop bragging."
"It seems...she's a girl."
The soldier took a breath and corrected himself, "...it's not that unpleasant, is it?"
There was silence for a while, no one answered.
The music that makes people urinate is extremely sharp, and in front of them is Xizhou, which is blazing with flames. There is a strange and appropriate eerie feeling.
"Zhang Da, isn't our girl a famous talented girl in Kyoto City, who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Ningzhou cavalry asked gossiping.
"That's the second girl."
"Huh?"
"Is this your first time hearing a girl play music?"
"No!" Zhang Day said concisely and concisely, but it was also difficult to say what he said.
"No one told her that she plays very...differently?"
"The prince thinks it sounds good!"
"ha!"
"General Nuanyang, I will bring a team of people into the city to investigate and find out the news." A deputy general stood up and asked for orders, just wanting to escape from this terrifying and weird atmosphere.
"...Okay!" Nuanyang was about to cry without tears, but he also remembered! Qiuxiang said that when the girl was in the mood, she could play all night long, but his ears were already protesting, but he couldn't be too far away from Feng Yu.
Feng Yu kept blowing the news for more than an hour, (three hours.) until Nuanyang's deputy general Chen Jiangdong came back with his troops and reported that a riot in the city had involved weapons, several people had been injured, and the situation was a bit out of control.
"Enter the city!" Feng Yu made a prompt decision and led five thousand cavalry into the city.
Feng Yu subdued several bandits to pass on the news. When she was in Jinzhou, she had been receiving news from Xizhou. Although it was a riot, both sides were in confrontation and had never used ordnance. The local state capital also knew that Feng Yu and the cavalry would come, so they did not dare
If we really take action against this group of bandits, we are afraid of causing loss of lives and cutting off our retreat.
The confrontation has been going on for five days. The two sides are like boiling oil, ready to explode at the slightest sign of trouble. Someone provoked them tonight and they started taking action very quickly.
There are tens of thousands of people in the city, most of them are young and middle-aged people, but there are also old and weak women and children, so accidental injuries are inevitable.
Feng Yu's carriage was behind, and Nuanyang was leading the cavalry to suppress them. The neatly equipped cavalry with crossbows, rifles and shields quickly separated the rioting team.
Qiuxiang asked Nuanyang on the way. There are 60,000 people in Xizhou and we only have 5,000 cavalry. Can we defeat them? Nuanyang laughed and said, "If the Ningzhou cavalry is destroyed by 50,000 bandits in Xizhou, the Marquis is afraid."
Even the coffin boards can’t hold it down.”
The local state capital is mostly composed of militiamen and bandits, and there are not well-trained imperial guards and forbidden troops.
And that night in Kyoto, if something hadn't happened unexpectedly, and Yu Wenjing had set up an ambush on the long street, they might not have been in a bitter fight.
"The three girls are ordered to put down their weapons and each retreat ten meters. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" Chen Jiangdong's voice was like a bell, and the uproarous crowd was forcefully separated by a group of cavalry.
The bandits that Xie Xun surrendered to him had interacted with Feng Yu. Before Feng Yu went to Jinzhou alone, Feng Yu had arranged for the bandits. She had established a relatively good relationship with the wives of several big bosses. When the cavalry rushed over, the locals in Xizhou
The people in the state capital were tougher, but the bandits were wise and moved back a few meters.
The local state government officers and soldiers were tougher. One of the men in official robes said loudly, "Who are you girls? This is Xizhou, the land of Yanyang. It only recognizes the orthodoxy of the Yuwen royal family. Brothers, put this group of people away."
Drive out the bandits who seize our homeland, and those who seize my homeland will be killed without mercy!"
"Kick them out!"
"Those who take away my homeland will be killed without mercy!"
A group of soldiers in official robes were in a passionate mood, with their swords pointing to the sky, and there was a tense feeling that they were about to start a killing spree. Tens of thousands of people shared the same hatred and were filled with murderous intent.
"Zhu Shengliang, you are so shameless. Who took over our home?" Zhang Hu glared, "You were originally a bandit on Mawei Slope of Xizhou. You killed people and looted goods. You committed all kinds of evil. It was you who led the bandits into Xizhou.
, drive away the people and seize the iron mines, don’t think I won’t recognize you when you put on official robes!”
"I am the judge of the Salt and Iron Division personally appointed by the imperial court. You and other bandits dare to compete with me, intending to rob the granary and iron ore..."
Feng Yu lifted the curtain and stepped out. Dressed in red, she blended in with the flaming Xizhou City. She was beautiful and fragrant, with a soft and kind face. Zhu Shengliang's eyes were confused by Feng Yu's appearance, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Kill!" Feng Yu glanced at the murderous Xizhou soldiers and issued a killing order.
"You dare, I am the judge of the Salt and Iron Department, you..." Before Zhu Shengliang could finish his words, Chen Jiangdong, who was closest to him, pierced his chest with his spear in front of tens of thousands of people, and then he lifted the man up with a casual move.
Swinging, the spear flew out with the body skewered, and was firmly inserted into the pillar on the side.
"It's so noisy!"
Everything was silent, and everyone was shocked by the absolute force of suppression.
The soldiers looked at each other in confusion. Feng Yu stood on the carriage, her red clothes were like fire. Facing the angry and hateful eyes of the soldiers, she smiled slightly and said, "My name is Feng Yu, can we have a talk?"
After the killing, Feng Yu seemed to have remembered a proverb, a vajra's angry eyes are not as good as a bodhisattva's low eyebrows.
"You actually killed our judge?" A soldier in official robes pointed at the sky with a long sword, "We want to avenge the judge!"
Feng Yu's approach in Xizhou was completely different from that in Jinzhou.
"I want to have a good talk with you," Feng Yu said, "but you want to confront me with swords. This makes me very embarrassed."
