Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 84 Haizhou City changes ownership



That night, a team of 5,000 people was slowly advancing towards Haizhou.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the prefectures and counties across the country were divided into fifteen roads, with roads, prefectures, and counties as administrative divisions.

Officials at roads, prefectures, and counties are all taken by central officials, and they are temporarily assigned. The so-called "officials in Beijing and the court are informed by their authority, and they are replaced every three years." In this way, the powers of local governors were dispersed, their terms of office were short, their military force was weakened, and they were unable to confront the imperial court.

The advantage is that it weakens local forces, but once a crowd rebels, they basically have to wait for reinforcements to suppress it.

Haizhou is close to the Yellow Sea and can be considered a good state and county. There are many guards on the city gate, vigilantly holding weapons in their hands.

"You all must be more vigilant. Our place has not been peaceful recently, so don't let thieves find opportunities!" Du Tou inspected the soldiers on duty.

When the central imperial army comes, they must be more vigilant. The superiors have told them that they must be serious in the past two days. If they delay the military plane, they will be devastated from top to bottom.

"Du Tou, there's a situation!" A guard called to Du Tou anxiously.

"What's wrong!" Dutou's heart suddenly rose.

"Look, there are a large number of people approaching over there!"

Dutou heard this and quickly looked over, and sure enough he saw a huge team approaching.

"Go and inform the commander!" Dutou shouted hurriedly.

"Du Tou, look, that looks like the Forbidden Army!" Suddenly a sharp-eyed person noticed the shape of the armor under the torch.

"Huh?" Dutou quickly raised his inner energy and stared at the team in the distance carefully.

It was indeed the armor of the Forbidden Army. There were still a lot of blood stains on it. It seemed that they had just returned after suppressing the rebellion.

Dutou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a lot.

"Du Tou, is this forbidden army so powerful that they defeated all these thieves in two days?" The guards started talking.

They are regarded as side soldiers, one level lower than the Forbidden Army, but their combat power seems to be as high as in the sky and on the ground.

"That's the Central Forbidden Army. If the four bandits hadn't made such a big fuss, you might never have seen it in your lifetime. They were all selected strong troops!" Dutou proudly showed off the news he had heard from his superiors.

"What happened!" The commander in charge of the night watch climbed onto the city wall and asked.

"Sir, the imperial army has returned from suppressing the rebellion. I didn't see it clearly before!"

The commander glanced at the legions in the distance. Although they couldn't be seen clearly, they were indeed dressed like the Forbidden Army.

After approaching the city gate, the commander planned to ask a few questions.

"Bastard, open the door quickly and let us in!" A sharp yell was heard.

"Quick, quick, open the door!" Upon hearing this, the commander quickly asked his men to open the city gate.

With this iconic voice, except for the eunuchs and supervisors from the central government, if you offend this person, you will be in trouble.

Even their local superiors did not dare to offend the other party, and naturally he did not dare to offend a small commander.

"I didn't expect it to be quite simple!" Looking at the wide-open city gate, Mu Yi looked sideways at Jia Xu beside him.

"Sir, I have done everything you asked, can you please let me go!" The little eunuch smiled obsequiously.

"Of course, I can also give you a sum of money. I hope you can say something nice in front of your ancestor!" Mu Yi glanced at the young eunuch, then waved his hand to signal Jia Xu to come forward.

Jia Xu approached the young eunuch sinisterly and threatened him, which instantly scared the young eunuch out of his courage.

"Remember, you went back to ask for help, not to suffer defeat. You should be able to understand the difference!" Jia Xu patted the young eunuch on the shoulder with deep meaning.

I have to say that sometimes, villains are much easier to use than gentlemen.

The little eunuch shook like chaff and nodded crazily. He was completely frightened by Jia Xu and lost his ability to think. Faced with Jia Xu's temptation, he instinctively made a choice.

"Congratulations, sir, on your victory..." The commander came forward with a smile on his face.

"Do it!" Xu Huang pounced on the opponent without hesitation, commanding his head to fly instantly.

"The whole army attacks!"

Xu Huang activated his talent, causing the troops disguised as the Forbidden Army to rush up the city wall like the wind, and instantly took control of the city gate when the guards did not know what was going on and even the clouds did not rise.

"Go back and notify the First Legion to come over. You, Huang Zhong, and Tai Shici will block the city gates in the other three directions!" Mu Yi calmly asked Gan Ning beside him to act as the messenger.

"No!" Gan Ning cupped his fists and flew away.

"Congratulations, lord, this city has fallen into the hands of our army!" Jia Xu congratulated with a smile.

Haizhou is equivalent to a county town. It was a big victory for them to win it so effortlessly.

"It's not as good as Wen He's calculation. With just a few words, he earned another five thousand armors for our army!" Mu Yi shook his head with a smile.

As long as nothing unexpected happens, after the little eunuch returns, the court will send troops again. As long as the number is not large, it is not a problem to trick them into the city to ambush them and eat them in one go.

To once again solve the armor problem of a legion, it is actually the best way to encircle the point and provide reinforcements.

If it hadn't been for Jia Xu Jianyan, he might have killed the little eunuch with one knife.

"It's just a little scheme to play with people's hearts, it can't be put on the table!" Jia Xu shook his head. After all, there are limits to playing with people's hearts. This is why he always goes with the flow.

After a night of commotion, Haizhou City changed its flag and became a city controlled by Mu Yi.

As before, Mu Yi instinctively started to divide the land from local tyrants. This was also the simplest and most effective way to win over people's hearts. Only by giving benefits to the people in the city could they gain their support.

The land annexation in the Northern Song Dynasty was only more serious than that in the Eastern Han Dynasty. If the Eastern Han aristocratic families wanted to save face, the big landowners in the Northern Song Dynasty would have completely abandoned the lower limit.

In addition, the Northern Song Dynasty did not suppress land annexation, which resulted in frequent land transfers. A large amount of land disappeared during the transfer process and became the private land of large landowners.

Wang Anshi's reform was only removed from power because it touched the interests of these big landowners.

But Mu Yi is not Wang Anshi. Wang Anshi was top-down, while Mu Yi always replaced him.

Take all the land into your own hands, and then allocate fields to the people.

And if someone in the family joins the Yellow Turban Army, they can be allocated more land.

For a time, there was an endless stream of people willing to join the Yellow Turban Army, many of whom were even Xiang soldiers and rural soldiers themselves.

While Mu Yi was busy revolting and rallying his troops, Jia Xu also completed the compilation of Haizhou City's classics and had a clearer understanding of the Northern Song Dynasty.

"It's rotten to the core, there's no hope!"

After sorting out the information about the Northern Song Dynasty, Jia Xu understood why Mu Yi once said that the Northern Song Dynasty was hopeless.

It is indeed hopeless. It is worse than the Han Dynasty, and internal and external troubles have reached the point where it is difficult to recover.

Jia Xu felt that even if Emperor Qin and Han Wu were left in the position of today's emperor, there would be no cure. It was already rotten from top to bottom.

It is more reliable to rebuild something after breaking it than to reorganize it from scratch.

"It sucks, but it's a good place!" A sneer appeared on Jia Xu's lips.

As their enemy, the worse they are, the better.
