But when fighting, you cannot just make contributions to your own contributions, and you will not care about others. Chunyu Qiong and Yan Liang worked hard to fight, don’t you want to make contributions?

So Zhao Yun had to take care of the emotions of other generals and waited at Yanmen Pass.

Lu Xiang led more than a hundred elite soldiers to Dingxiang to find his cousin Lu Kuang.

Zhao Yun and Su You are guarding the door.

Hao Meng attacked Jinyang forcing her. After the baggage team arrived, they gathered three hundred crossbows and one hundred creeping tiger cannons.

Yuan Shang's army was incomparable to Cao Cao's. As soon as the giant crossbow and cannon sounded, the nest was immediately blown up on the city wall.

Hao Meng waved the flag and said, "Climb the city."

Chunyu Qiong led the infantry to charge, archers covered, set up a ladder, and climbed up the city wall with a shield.

Only the sparse feather arrows fell down, and there was no way to form effective resistance. The infantry climbed up quickly, and the soldiers watching the battle cheered like mountains and tsunamis.

Tear off Yuan Shang's banner and replace it with the Xuzhou army's flag.

Chunyu Qiong ordered a team of people to rush into the city gate and move to open the city gate.

This is quite difficult because the city gate was sealed, and the soldiers took a large axe weighing more than ten pounds and cut it for a quarter of an hour before they opened the bolt.

Hao Meng, Yan Liang and others were waiting outside the city.

Opening the city gate, Yan Liang led his troops into the city.

As soon as the five thousand cavalry entered the city, Hao Meng breathed a sigh of relief and finally took it off successfully.

In this era, siege is a very headache. Relying on solid city walls, defenders will cause a large number of casualties to the siege.

But it is obvious that the Bingzhou army is vulnerable and flees when they see the wind, so fragile.

Several cavalry teams had already rushed to other city gates to wait, and just waited for Yuan Shang to leave the city, and then arrested him.

Besides, Yan Liang made a contribution this time. He didn't go far, but he met Ma Yan and led hundreds of cavalry to block his way.

Although the streets in Jinyang are quite spacious, the horse battle is still a bit narrow.

Yan Liang and Ma Yan became very excited as soon as they came up.

Two big knives flew up and down, brushing them.

As Yuan Shang’s number one general, he still has martial arts.

He actually fought with Yan Liang for more than ten tricks.

Seeing that Ma Yan was young and a young boy in his twenties, Yan Liang couldn't bear to slash him, so he slapped the horse with one knife.

He shouted: "Yuan Shang has escaped, but you have surrendered quickly."

No one moved, and he held the sword and gun tightly.

Ma Yan got up and shook his head helplessly at everyone: "The infantry city defense is not good, and the city gate has already failed. Don't increase casualties in vain, everyone surrender."

Ma Yan led his troops to surrender to Yan Liang. The cavalry controlled the city very quickly and quickly controlled the four city gates, the Daying and Yuan Shang's yamen.

When Hao Meng led the large army in, the battle in the city had already ended.

Only a small number of teams fought fiercely, and other units surrendered.

Hao Meng didn't bother them, so he confiscated his weapons and stayed in the military camp.

There were a few thugs in the city who took advantage of the chaos to rob, and they were all captured by the military law team that enforced military law.

The entire Jinyang City has returned to peace, but a curfew will still be imposed today.

The shops are closed and pedestrians are not allowed to go out.

Soldiers cleaned the streets and put out the fires.

It was a pity that Yuan Shang did not catch him, escaped, and took away more than 2,000 cavalrymen. It was obvious that he had prepared for a long time. Moreover, Yuan Shang was very skilled in the terrain and slipped away with the help of the terrain.

I was busy until midnight before I was calm.

A considerable amount of money was seized in the city, with more than 100,000 stagnants of gold, silver and jewelry.

With more than 200,000 stones of grain, Hao Mengle was in full bloom, and this trip was not in vain.

However, as the chief general, he dared not do anything, and he could not make more money. The Xuzhou army was very strict. If Lu Bu was willing to let go, he would have been unified in the world long ago. The main reason was that Lu Bu considered that once these generals were freed, they would be a disaster when the world was peaceful.

Instead of losing the reputation of killing a hero, it is better to manage it now.

The next morning, the soldiers posted the list, the shops opened, and the city gates were normally open.

In the next five days, Chunyu Qiong led infantry and baggage troops to guard Jinyang City.

Hao Meng and Yan Liang divided their troops to search around, searching for Yuan Shang.

The nearby towns fell in sight, and the battle progressed very quickly, with extremely low casualties.

The surrendered soldiers came in handy, and they were organized separately from the original soldiers, adding more than 10,000 people. Several nearby counties also arranged more than a thousand soldiers to guard the troops.

That evening, the Central Army discussed the matter.

Hao Meng sat in the middle and took out a reward method for money.

"A total of copper coins and about 250,000 gold and silver were seized. According to the lord's convention, half were left and half were divided. The chief generals were 500 stakes, and the deputy generals were 300 stakes. The garrison commander was 100 stakes. Each soldier was 100 stakes. Each soldier was 100 stakes. Each special contribution was rewarded. Chunyu Qiong led his army to the city, and Yan Liang led the cavalry into the city, and they would submit them to the headquarters one by one."

The generals were overjoyed, and the general was already very generous.

Chunyu Qiong's troops only left 5,000 infantry and 2,000 newly recruited soldiers in the headquarters, and the other troops followed Hao Meng north.

Because there are several counties outside Yanmen Pass that need to be conquered.

At the same time, the battle report flew back to Xuzhou.

Five days later, Lu Bu laughed in Xuzhou: "Zilong was brave and took Yanmen Pass in one battle. Hao Meng threw the main force and took Jinyang. Yuan Shang's troops surrendered and seized a lot of food, grass, gold and silver."

Chen Gong took the battle report and looked at it, and was very happy: "Two hundred thousand stones of grain, if I could have laughed at the donkey before, but with the promotion of sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, granaries in various places have been in full swing this autumn, and now the government no longer collects grain paid by the people."

Lu Bu was also very happy. Xuzhou is now strong.

A small prosperous situation occurred.

New varieties of crops have been promoted very quickly in Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Hefei, and have basically escaped from famine.

Only a very small number of remote mountainous areas are still in a situation where they cannot eat or drink.

The popularity of large animals such as cattle, horses, mules, and donkeys is very high, and the power to cultivate arable land has been initially achieved.

The breeding of poultry and livestock such as pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese has also made great progress.

"Now folk scholars have named the prosperous era today, called the prosperous era of Wenhou."

Lu Bu shook his head: "We should not slack off. The small peasant economy has poor risk resistance. A slightly more serious disaster will destroy the people's homes. Let's work harder and focus on the development of the three prefectures of Xuzhou, Qingzhou and Jizhou this year. Especially in the mountainous and mid-mountain areas, build reservoirs in suitable places to improve drought resistance. At the same time, we must continue to popularize large animals, which is always a problem."

"Okay lord, I will arrange it immediately. The canals, Wenhou water wheels, and Wenhou water wells must be built to improve drought resistance."

In the era without chemical pesticides, locusts still exist every year.

However, with the popularity of potatoes and sweet potatoes, even if locusts come, they can still collect some. In addition, the government’s relief, their own food storage basically has a certain ability to resist risks.
