When the Zhao army surrounded and killed the Shu army, Yang Wangqing, located in Xicheng County, was also appeaseing the people of Xicheng County. Please visit the latest free chapters of this book... I have to say that when the Shu army withdrew, he gave Xicheng County the opportunity to withdraw.
The damage caused was not light. Because Xicheng County was a place where the Han army and Shu army fought against each other, most of the people in the city were conscripted by the Han army to defend the city, and many were killed or injured. The people in the city had food stored at their homes, and most of them were conscripted by the government.
Later, when the Han army retreated, in order not to allow the Shu army to obtain the food in the city, they completely burned the food they obtained from the people with a fire.
Because the Zhao army blocked Chenggu, the Shu army in Chenggu could not transport food, grass and materials in time to transport the Shu army camps in the previous line, the Shu army had no choice but to force the food of the surrounding towns and villages outside the city.
After the city, the Shu army gained nothing. As soon as the Zhao army approached, the Shu army once again forced the people in the city to seize the food, leaving the people in the city without any food, and on the verge of life and death.
After the Zhao army entered the city, these things naturally needed to be taken over by the Zhao army. If the people in the city were not appeased, the Zhao army naturally could not control Xicheng County. Fortunately, the Zhao army obtained 20,000 troops of the Shu army in Chenggu.
Now, it is naturally used by the Zhao army on the people of Xicheng County.
Although the Zhao army paid a lot of food, the Zhao army quickly won the hearts of the people here. It can be said that the speed at which the people of Xicheng County recognize the ruling status of the Zhao army here is far from comparable to other places. The Han army is also good.
, well, the Shu army, they would only charge food and various taxes from the people. Therefore, when Qin You led his army to pursue the Shu army, Yang Wangqing had solved the food problem of the people, that is, the survival problem of the people.
More than 20 townships in Xicheng County began to support his Zhao army.
Even seeing that the Zhao army was insufficient, many young and strong people directly asked to join the army to assist the Zhao army in defending the local area to ensure the Zhao army's rule here. Because these people were worried that if the Zhao army was defeated by other troops, their survival would be a problem.
.Whether it was the Han army or the Shu army, in order to collect food, many people were slaughtered, especially some soldiers, in order to force some money from the people's homes, and even robbed them. Then the Shu army withdrew
At that time, Jianyin plundered and committed all kinds of evil.
"As a result, we have to thank the Han army and Shu army generals. If it weren't for them, we would have taken over here so quickly and won the support of the people?" Qin You, who had returned from victory, could not help but hear Yang Wangqing say this.
A burst of laughter.
"By the way, sir, we have collected seven or eight thousand prisoners in Chenggu and Xicheng counties this time. Except for half of them that can be used by us, the rest are soldiers from Yizhou. How should they deal with it?"
Yang Wangqing thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Let me go!"
"Let them go? I finally captured them and let them go like this? Is this... After they are released, they will be reassembled by the Shu army and reorganized into the Shu army. They will still be able to do so.
It's hostile to us." Qin You was stunned and said in confusion.
Yang Wangqing smiled and said, "We have let these soldiers go. Among them, their families in the south and Yizhou will naturally go south, and the Shu army in the south will naturally re-enlist them and will also interrogate them.
He said that if they worked hard to escape their lives, they would be criticized by their own side. Will they accept it in their hearts?”
"Secondly, when these soldiers return, they will basically be incorporated by the Southern Shu Army and will continue to be incorporated into the army. Their battles with us will naturally be passed on to the Shu Army. More importantly, they will spread some news.
, Fighting with us, you will be able to survive if you lose your way to surrender. In addition, when these soldiers fight us again, they will be afraid of this failure, and they will not dare to fight with us to death, and will even surrender first."
"Thirdly, we need these soldiers to spread the news that Feng Yanzhang committed suicide to be loyal to Shu King Situ Che into the southern Shu army. Based on my understanding of Situ Che, the Han army and Shu army were defeated this time, Situ Che was sure to be defeated by the Han army.
The blame will still be on Feng Yanzhang. At that time, the Shu army, who followed Feng Yanzhang in the Han army for several months, will definitely be dissatisfied with the King of Shu, and the generals and generals of the Shu army in the south will also be against the newly appointed Shu army.
The coach is dissatisfied. This is very beneficial to us."
Upon hearing this, Qin You nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "It's so good, then let these soldiers be dismissed. Leaving them is also a disaster for us."
Yang Wangqing said to Hu Zhi of the Eighth Town again: "By the way, can civil servants follow the army south this time?"
Hu Zhi said in a deep voice: "I have arrived in Chenggu. I think it will not take long to arrive here."
Yang Wangqing nodded slightly and said, "That's good. Now we occupy the land, but there is a shortage of civil servants and local military control, which is not a long-term event."
Qin You said in a deep voice: "Sir, wherever we go, we must check the local tyrants and powerful people. Will Xicheng County clean up this place while it has just recovered, so that it will facilitate the subsequent civil servants to manage the place. Furthermore,
It is also the responsibility we have to bear this time." Qin You knew that King Zhao had given them a secret order, asking them to immediately clear out the local powerful tribes after entering the counties in Hanzhong.
Because this is the territory of the king of Hanzhong, there are many powerful families in Hanzhong. In addition to the support of the Zhao army's weapons and equipment, the Han army is also related to the powerful families in Hanzhong. And these
, it was exactly what Zhao State could not accept. In Chenggu, Qin You let the surrendered Shu soldiers clean up the great clans in the city on the night of breaking the city. Of course, all the charges and responsibilities were thrown into Shu
Jun is on his body.
Yang Wangqing smiled and said, "There are no more powerful clans here. The powerful clans here have been cleaned up by the Shu army for us. Speaking of which, we really have to thank Feng Yanzhang for his good gratitude."
"Oh? What's going on?" Qin You asked in surprise. Because he had just returned, he didn't know much about the situation in Xicheng County. He was only welcomed by local people when he was approaching various townships and villages in Xicheng County.
It made it clear that Xicheng County had already received support from the people under Yang Wangqing's control. It was also because of this that Qin Youxiang cleaned up these powerful families who needed to be cleaned up as soon as possible, so as not to delay time and make it difficult to do it.
Yang Wangqing smiled and said, "Because we cut off the food and supplies of the Shu army in Chenggu, the Shu army forced the food and supplies of the people around Xicheng County. When the Han army evacuated, they also burned the food and supplies of the city.
You all know. But the food of ordinary people in the city has long been forced to be conquered by the Han army and burned down by the Han army. Therefore, in order to survive, the Shu army could only extend their hands to the powerful clans in the city. Naturally, it would not be necessary.
It is said that the powerful and powerful tribes in the city have been cleaned up by the Shu army, and the cleanup is even more miserable by ordinary people. Who makes them have so much food and money?"
Qin You suddenly said, "No wonder I saw a lot of money left by the Shu army while pursuing the Shu army. So that's it."
Yang Wangqing smiled and said, "Originally, the Shu army would win over these powerful clans by taking over this place. However, the Shu army had already given up on this place at that time, so these powerful clans would not be valued by them. In addition, they all survived.
After the problem, these powerful families will naturally become their targets."
"It's good, so we don't need to do anything. This is the easternmost part of the land of Hanzhong, opposite to the Han army. There must be no accidents here. There is an internal stability, and we only need to be guarded against external enemies.
However, I think the current situation of the Han army can no longer do anything to us. It seems that when the local civil servants arrive, we will need to go to Hanzhong City."
Yang Wangqing shook his head and said, "This place is not so easy to solve. The internal stability is made. The King of Hanzhong, who is in the east, will not be willing to give up the place to us. The war will be started directly. The King of Hanzhong may not, but we are now with the Han army.
There is also this trade deal. At least, until now, we have not been directly hostile to the Han army. So, I am afraid that the King of Hanzhong wants to ask for this place through other means. Don’t forget that it was the Han army switch that we could go south.
. At that time, the King of Hanzhong agreed to us to go south, but asked us to release the Han army in northern Hanzhong. In addition, he also admitted that we occupied the central and western Hanzhong, but we could not cross the territory occupied by the Han army at that time. This Xicheng County was
In the hands of the Han army.”
Qin You said in a deep voice: "We seized this Xicheng County from the Shu army. Does he still want to ask for it from us? In this way, it is better to fight head-on. As for the switch? He doesn't let us in, he only has Hanzhong King
I am afraid that I will become a lonely man. Not to mention the three eastern counties now, which are the land of Jingzhou, I am afraid that he will not be qualified to share it with the King of Luoyang."
Yang Wangqing said in a deep voice: "After that being said, we are fighting with the Shu army now, and we are afraid that the King of Hanzhong will make small moves behind us. You must know that it is not easy for us to draw troops from the north to transport food, grass and supplies." Zhao Jun
Now he has fought against the Shu army and is also confronting the Qi army in the east. If he faces the Han army again, the pressure the Zhao army needs to bear will be too heavy. Therefore, Yang Wangqing knew very well that this is not the time to turn against the Han army.
In addition, Yang Wangqing knew very well that the king also hoped that the King of Hanzhong would be preserved and divided Jingzhou equally with the King of Luoyang, rather than letting the Luo army monopolize Jingzhou.
The land of Jingzhou is very important. The two princes are divided equally and one prince monopolizes. The meaning is different. Although the two princes can recruit more troops in Jingzhou, they also have a greater burden on the local people.
Similarly, they cannot make good use of the power of the entire Jingzhou. Especially now, the power of the Luoyang King is expanding rapidly. Zhao Xun hopes that the Hanzhong King can re-bet his jing power on Jingzhou and Luojun, and restrain the Luojun, and cannot let him go.
Luo Jun exceeded control.
Qin You frowned and said, "Then how can we be right? We want to give this place to them?"
"Let me?" Yang Wangqing said coldly, "How is that possible? If we gave up the place to the Han army, we would not have watched the Han army lose it. Wouldn't it be better to directly join forces with the Han army to defeat the Shu army? How could it be
Just like now, we will recover this place for the Han army. Besides, we have paid a lot of food here, so how could we give it up easily? If the King of Hanzhong wants to compete with us for this place, then let the King of Hanzhong withdraw first
Even in the three eastern counties of Hanzhong, there is no share in him."
"That's good!" Qin You laughed. As a general, he naturally didn't want the territory he took to give it to the enemy in vain.
At this moment, soldiers reported that Han army envoys arrived in the east of the city.
"Look, the people from the King of Hanzhong are here!" Yang Wangqing said with disdain.
Qin You said coldly: "This Hanzhong King is so powerful. It was only five times before that we drove the Shu army out of the Xicheng. It was only yesterday when we completely defeated the Shu army.
Especially among these five ripples, we have just solved the survival problem of the people here, and he clearly wants to take advantage of it."
Yang Wangqing said in a deep voice: "It's okay, this also shows that the King of Hanzhong did not have much hope to take back Xicheng County. Otherwise, he would have just driven the Shu army out. If it were the King of Hanzhong at that time
With the army approaching, maybe the problem of Xicheng County is really not easy to solve. If it is not good, we have to retreat here temporarily and wait for the army of the Eighth Town to come to help before we can get it back here. Of course, if that is the case, we will be with Han
The army will become enemies directly. I think the King of Hanzhong was also concerned about this, so he did not directly lead the army to force it at that time."
"Please invite the Han army envoy here! I want to see what the Han army members want to say." Yang Wang ordered in a quiet voice.
A moment later, a middle-aged man in his forties was invited in. The man didn't know what he was thinking, with a little solemn look on his face, and his eyes were a little lost. Until he saw Yang Wangqing and Qin You
, with the reminder of the followers around him, he recovered from his consciousness.
"This master should be Yang Wangqing, the Privy Councilor of Zhao State. Unexpectedly, King Zhao would ask Lord Yang to come here in person to preside over the battle between the Zhao army and the Shu army." After Yang Wangqing asked someone to serve tea, the middle-aged man was in a state of decline.
Said.
Yang Wang laughed faintly and said, "Missing, Yang was just the deputy envoy of Privy Councillor. People like me, who are in Zhao State, do not know that Fanfan is just a trivial member of them, and are not worthy of such a noble envoy.
I said, I don’t know which magistrate is under the command of the King of Hanzhong? According to our investigation, you did not enter Xicheng County today. Since the King of Hanzhong sent an envoy to meet us, why did you arrive here today?"
The other party did not respond to their exact identity to Zhao Jun at all, so Yang Wangqing was not sure about the other party's identity. However, what is certain is that they entered Xicheng County, not knowing that they were in the present, but before the number of ri.
The middle-aged man said indifferently: "I dare not compare my name with Lord Yang. Under my command, I will serve as the post of marching Sima."
"Oh, it turns out it was Lord Yutian, the Han army marching master!"
"We did arrive in Xicheng County before four ri. The reason why we did not come to meet Lord Yang is because we found that Lord Yang is busy rectifying the internal affairs of Xicheng County and appeaseing the people. Therefore, in order not to cause trouble for Lord Yang, we delayed the situation.
Time, so I didn't come directly. Until now, after learning that the entire Shu army of your army had returned with great victory, Xicheng County was a little stable, I came to meet you."
Yang Wangqing heard what the other party said, simply because before several ri, the Zhao army in Xicheng County had fewer troops, and Xicheng County was also newly occupied by the Zhao army, and internal unstable. Therefore, in order to avoid suspicion, their Han army envoy did not directly look for it.
Come to the door. Now Qin You returned with a 6,000 army, and Xicheng County has settled down, so they appeared here directly.
However, what the other party said also made Yang Wangqing a little confused. Since the other party had entered Xicheng County several times before, why did he come to meet him now? Moreover, he also acted like he was considering Zhao Jun. Yang Wangqing would not believe it.
The other party is really considering Zhao Jun.
