The task of subduing the Sinful Tieliu tribe seemed simple and smooth, but in fact it was only after Lin Qing and Mo Sanniang's detailed planning and various means in a series that they finally succeeded.
Many times, many things will seem easy when you look at the process from the results, but if you really have to start from scratch and do it piece by piece, like peeling off silk from a cocoon, not many people can do it.
In the few days before Lin Qing left for the royal city of Hou Zhao, Mo Sanniang secretly launched a purge of the bandits led by Tie Guduo. She poisoned and killed nearly a thousand of Tie Guduo's die-hard subordinates, and bribed them.
Only then did a large number of people successfully master the core power of this iron flow of evil desires of more than 20,000 people.
This is because Mo Sanniang is in charge of the financial power of Nieyu Tieliu, and all rewards and rewards usually go through her hands. She is very popular among Nieyu Tieliu.
As for Mo Sanniang's ability to successfully control the unruly core force of more than 20,000 people in such a short period of time, Lin Qing also admired her methods and abilities. In addition, Mo Sanniang's own tens of thousands of people
Before convening the meeting of the six major leaders, Lin Qing had actually taken control of the Sinful Iron Horse Bandit Camp in the south of Xiyuan City.
It was precisely because of Lin Qing that Mo Sanniang had absolutely overwhelming strength that Zhang Song and others had no choice but to agree to submit to Lin Qing.
When they gathered to change the flags, Lin Qing ordered the release of all the civilians who had been held hostage. The scene where they called for their wives and children and walked away together was tear-jerking.
Although Lin Qing distributed some rewards in order to stabilize the mood of the horse bandits and announced that there would be generous rewards after arriving in Xinyi Prefecture, a small group of horse bandits secretly began to defect.
Lin Qing knew that the defection of these small groups of horse bandits meant that the big boss behind them was testing them. If they could not be stopped, the entire Lutheran Army would immediately fall apart.
Lin Qing arranged for the horse bandits belonging to Mo Sanniang's bodyguard to pursue them everywhere. Not only did they capture all the escaped horse bandits, but they also tortured the instigators behind the scenes and nailed them all to wooden stakes outside the camp.
Suddenly there were no more escapes in the camp.
Emperor Tie Wuxuan of the Later Zhao State was overjoyed after receiving the news that Lin Qing sent Tieguduo's head and Nieyue Tieliu had withdrawn from the siege and changed their banner to the Xinyi Army. He had fully grasped the power of the government and immediately announced his appointment.
Lin Qing was made Marquis of Xinyi, and Xinyi Prefecture was newly established as Lin Qing's fiefdom.
After Zhao Guo's appointment and reward arrived at the military camp, the entire Lutheran army cheered. Compared with the original vain attempt to seize the throne, it was obvious that this method of directly transforming into an official and military status would satisfy the horse bandits.
Later, the official who passed down the decree from Zhao State mysteriously handed Lin Qing a secret decree. Lin Qing opened it and saw that it was Tie Wuxuan who was roundaboutly asking what conditions he could use to exchange for the Fighting Soldiers Victory Armor.
Lin Qing laughed loudly and directly replied that the armor was originally owned by the elders of his sect. By chance, it was acquired by the founding emperor of the Later Zhao Kingdom. Now he has taken the armor back according to the decree of his sect, completely breaking Tie Wuxuan's heart.
Got this idea.
Next, Zhang Song, who was seriously injured, saw that there was no chance anymore, so he wisely handed over his subordinates, received two million taels of silver from Mo Sanniang, and left alone. Other horses who did not want to follow Lin Qing
When the bandit leaders saw that this method was feasible, they followed suit and took the money. As a result, the newly established Lutheran Army also experienced fewer unrest factors.
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided and Mo Sanniang was completely able to control the situation, Lin Qingqing announced the appointment of Mo Sanniang as the deputy commander of the Xinyi Army. The Queen of Xinyi Prefecture handed over all subsequent chores to Mo Sanniang.
After dealing with it, he quietly left the Lutheran Army, which was preparing to leave.
Lin Qing also handed over the real estate certificates of the Wan family to Mo Sanniang and asked her to turn them into secret assets under the name of Xinyi Prefecture. In this way, coupled with the assets that Mo Sanniang originally controlled, it was enough to maintain
The expenses of the entire Xinyi Prefecture.
Regarding the newly formed Xinyi Army, Lin Qing did not intend to support them in vain. He asked Mo Sanniang to immediately disband and reorganize the entire Xinyi Army after taking control of the entire Xinyi Prefecture, completely changing the past situation of numerous factions.
Even after the reorganization of the Lutheran Army was completed, Lin Qing gave Mo Sanniang clear instructions on how to train the troops, and Mo Sanniang could just follow the plan.
In addition, Lin Qing also specifically told Mo Sanniang to make use of the intelligence resources in her hands and try to form a bigger and bigger intelligence network.
This time, he had wasted too much time on rescuing Wanying and conquering the evil stream. He needed to return to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect immediately to practice in seclusion and prepare for the new Kuaishou of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect in October.
On the way back to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect on the ghost-faced four-clawed owl, Lin Qing took stock of what he had gained after leaving the mountain.
The most unexpected and precious harvest is of course the Warrior Victory Armor. This set of armor, which is obviously more than a low-grade spiritual weapon, will definitely bring new surprises after being warmed and cured.
The follower Sima Yan is just a casual chess piece. It is difficult to say how much cultivation value this young man with a weak cultivation level can have. Furthermore, this person's character and character lack sufficient testing.
As for the title of Marquis of Xinyi, it actually had no more practical significance for Lin Qing. The territory of Xinyi Prefecture and the more than 80,000 Xinyi troops gave Lin Qing some other ideas.
To be honest, turning the Sinful Desire Cavalry into his subordinates was just the result of rushing out of the situation and was not part of Lin Qing's plan at all. Even now that Lin Qing recalled the process of conquering these rebellious horse bandits,
I feel a little weird.
Among them, Mo Sanniang's role is irreplaceable. This woman's ability to do things has far exceeded Lin Qing's imagination. Lin Qing has seen with his own eyes the support of Tie Guduo's horse bandits, and he can
She only killed more than a thousand people and controlled more than 20,000 horse bandits. This kind of control ability is really impressive. If it were not for the slave seal to control, Lin Qing would never dare to hand over Xinyi Prefecture to her.
If Lin Qing was just a blue-clothed disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he certainly wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to create such a big battle. Managing the territory and training the army required a lot of energy and financial resources. Even with Mo Sanniang
The management of such a super talent will inevitably involve the monk's energy and affect the monk's progress in cultivation.
However, Lin Qing has the mission of restoring the glory of his division. He has to cultivate his power and territory bit by bit. The army means that he can have a large population, from which he can select children and teenagers with excellent qualifications to train, and grow up in this way.
The monks are the power that truly belongs to Lin Qing.
When the Hundred Thousand Mountains loomed in the distance, Lin Qing felt that he might have taken the first step towards reviving his master's sect.
On a charming moonlit night, in the back garden of Lei's house in Wanghailing, four people, Lei Zhensheng, Lei Lei, Lin Qing and the little beauty who had been renamed Lei Ying, were sitting around the table.
After returning to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, Lin Qing told the Lei family leader how the adapted version of Wan Yujiao died. Although Lei Zhensheng had already heard his daughter say it once, he still listened to Lin Qing very carefully and carefully.
I asked for some details from time to time.
After Lin Qing finished speaking, two lines of clear tears appeared on the jade-like face of the Lei family leader. The reason why Lin Qing did not tell the real situation was originally because he was afraid that it would affect the Lei family's attitude towards Lei Ying. Now it seems
It is also a good thing for the head of the Lei family. After all, it is much better to cherish a relationship in the heart than to leave a hatred.
Lin Qing also knew that after making a big fuss, Mrs. Lei finally accepted the fact that Lei Ying entered the Lei family. After all, Wan Yujiao, whom she regarded as a vixen, was dead and no one could threaten her status.
In order to thank Lin Qing for his help without hesitation, the head of the Lei family specially arranged a moon-viewing dinner to express his gratitude to Lin Qing. The moonscape in the back garden of the Lei family was famous among the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Uncle has already met Yingying, and he is also very happy. Now Yingying has become the treasure of our family. All this is thanks to brother. Come, let me toast to brother again!" Lei Lei picked up the jade cup and drank it all in one gulp.
.
"Dang." After Lin Qing hurriedly drank the wine, he found that the little beauty's big bright eyes were looking at him in concentration, and he didn't care about the strange bird "Huo'er" who was drinking next to him.
Lin Qing was a little embarrassed by this little beauty, so she simply stood up and toasted to Lei Zhensheng.
The head of the Lei family is a very clear-minded person. Looking at his daughter's infatuation, he finished the wine and said half jokingly and half seriously: "Lin Qing, do you still remember the condition on Yunlei Peak? It still counts now.
!”
Of course Lin Qing knew the meaning of Lei Zhensheng's words. That day on Yunlei Peak, Master Lei Wanpeng personally invited Lin Qing to join the Lei family by choosing a girl from the Lei family as a Taoist companion.
In fact, if Lin Qing agreed to join the Lei family in this way, he would definitely have to choose among the girls from the Lei family. A girl with such a high status as the daughter of the current head of the Lei family would never be betrothed to Lin Qing.
Such a disciple in blue serves as a Taoist companion.
Lei Zhensheng mentioned this request again today, actually suggesting that Lei Ying could be betrothed to Lin Qing in exchange for him joining the Lei family. Compared with the original suggestion, this suggestion was more of a thank you than a solicitation.
Lin Qing was immediately embarrassed and hurriedly took another sip of wine, but still didn't know how to answer Lei Zhensheng. He even suspected that even if he didn't agree to join the Lei family, Lei Zhensheng would just propose to become a Taoist couple with Lei Ying.
agree.
I don't know why, but when it comes to lifelong Taoist companions, the figure of the girl in white by the pool always flashes in Lin Qing's mind. Maybe this is the real reason why he is unwilling to agree to Lei Zhensheng.
Fortunately, Lei Lei saw Lin Qing's awkward expression and hurriedly changed the subject: "Brother, tell us what you did after you sent your sister back."
Lin Qing, who breathed a sigh of relief, told the story of how he recruited the Sinful Tieliu and obtained the fiefdom, but changed the real situation to the reward proposed by Mo Sanniang and the Emperor Zhao of the State of Mo Sanniang on his own initiative.
"Then I should call you Lord Lin now!" The stars in Lei Ying's eyes became brighter, she looked at Lin Qing with admiration, and then said: "If you don't take me with you for such a fun thing, I want to do it with you
If we do it together, the Emperor of Zhao will have no choice but to grant me some kind of title."
