Chapter 176: Unity 6
Not only did he destroy the Ling family, the main family, but he also occupied the Donghai County where the thirteen Wanshi lords existed. It's a mess, no matter how you look at it, no one can provoke him!
At that time, everyone was still waiting to watch the show, because when such an awesome guy went out again, the target would definitely be the remaining four families. These small families still think that when the Zhao family fights the four major families, they will find an opportunity to occupy some territory, and then defect to the winner, and the days will continue here.
As for the big leagues? It is estimated that except for the few families that founded the Grand Alliance, the other families have not cared about this organization that has guaranteed their independence for so many years.
It's just that who would have thought that the original plan to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters could not be implemented at all. On the contrary, he was beaten upside down with a stick, and his eyes were full of gold stars.
Yes, who would have thought that the feuding family that has been fighting for a tit-for-tat for I don't know how many years, sleeps with one eye closed, and has no chance to create opportunities to make trouble for each other, actually has such a fucking tacit understanding, and at the same time sends troops to rectify their own backyard!
This Zhao family is too awesome, right? How could these feuds be allowed to make such a friendly act?! It's useless to be surprised by what happened before. The four major families have come to the door!
These big league members have almost no other choice but to obediently ask for submission. Because if they run away from their territory, they will really have nothing.
The territory that has been passed down for hundreds of years, as well as those people and relatives, is really not so easy to abandon. And not being able to defeat and surrender to the enemy is really a normal thing in these days.
Anyway, after surrendering, if you can't do it, you can obediently obey the order, and after saying that you can't work hard to establish meritorious deeds, you can still expand your knowledge and deeds. It's just that their conjectures have once again been frustrated. I don't know if it's because the first family to submit has an old grudge against the samurai led by the four major families, or because the four major families want to directly govern this half of the county territory.
It is estimated that it should be the latter, after all, the Zhao family directly governs the entire Donghai County, although the Donghai County is divided into a large number of territories and is ready to be divided.
But at this moment, the most powerful warrior in the Zhao family is only five hundred stones. It must have been a few years before it was converted. Therefore, in addition to wanting to increase the income of half of the county territory, the four major families also want to increase the land that can be rewarded.
You must know that after so many years of fighting for half of the county and the other four families, you have to exterminate the big alliance that is mischievous, but you have given half of the county territory the land that can be rewarded.
Now not only are the samurai who have established meritorious deeds dissatisfied, but also the family is also dissatisfied, and the territory directly under the main family can really only maintain the operation of the main family.
So if you want to dominate the whole county, let's kill all those bastards of the big league! In this way, not only can there be an additional group of direct lords, and there will be enough land to reward the samurai under their command, but it will also make their backyard truly stable! How can you not do such a multi-task?
Therefore, the families of the Grand Alliance, which occupied half of the county territory in these four counties, began to be unlucky, because they were shocked to find that the four major families actually did not accept the appearance of the subordinate, and directly occupied all the captured territories as direct territories.
Of course, they will not slaughter those warriors who surrendered, but they are just like the Zhao family, just give these surrendered warriors five stones to know how to act, and then let them take the lead!
This aspect is excessively done than the Zhao family, because the Zhao family is extremely arrogant, so everyone knows the affairs of the Zhao family.
Although the Zhao family also made the entire Donghai County a direct jurisdiction, it was too late for the people to destroy the entire Donghai coalition army in an instant, so that the coalition army surrendered.
According to the rules, it is normal for the entire Donghai County to be taken under the direct jurisdiction in this way. And those vassals, although they are also the status of the lowest-level samurai of Goshi Zhixing.
But they didn't directly let these subordinates go to the front, and they also gave these subordinates enough funds to learn a trick of power without discrimination, and there was no difference in other treatment with the warriors of the Zhao family's five stones.
Therefore, although the Zhao family treats the subordinates in this way, it is definitely not harsh, and the Zhao family's meritocracy theory makes those capable ministers all gear up, ready to establish meritorious deeds in exchange for territorial rewards!
And on the side of the four major families, they surrendered before the battle! According to the rules of the tacit agreement of the world family, depriving one-third of the territory is already very harsh, and it stands to reason that surrendering without a battle, transferring or directly confirming the existing knowledge and deeds is appropriate.
Now the four major families have directly deprived themselves of all their territories, regardless of whether they surrendered before the war or not. The samurai who surrendered, directly give a five-stone Zhixing!
It's all about it, but these five stone Zhixing are just empty things hanging on their heads, and then let the subordinate warriors who haven't caught anything go to attack the next family.
And the most chilling thing is that the samurai who died in battle was directly deprived of the name of the family on the charge of being unfavorable to the war. Let the vassals no longer have the status of samurai, and their descendants will either become ronins or farmers!
This can make the samurai who pursue the inheritance of his retainers explode directly! It's just that these exploding samurai, no birds, at most, they pull out a team of 100 people, and ninety percent of them are peasant soldiers!
Pulling the peasant soldiers at this time directly made the local lords have very big opinions about the lord! With internal turmoil and thousands of standing armies attacking outside, the samurai who exploded in this way were either killed in battle, or committed suicide, and of course, lost everything and fled!
For the four major families, this scene of the outbreak of the samurai of the hostile forces. Instead of panicking, they were in high spirits! Because for them, the surrender of the enemy will not bring them merit!
Why do you say that? Because under the strong rise of the Zhao family, the rules that meritorious deeds must bring knowledge and action have been vaguely spread and seriously implemented by everyone.
Like before, it is impossible to get a reward of a few stones and a dozen stones for establishing a great meritorious service, and it is impossible to appear again in Dongsheng Kingdom! Because there is a role model of the Zhao family! If you are too harsh, don't blame the warriors for taking refuge in the Zhao family!
And the four major families that are against the Zhao family naturally can't have problems in this regard. Therefore, when the battle was cleared in the backyard, the heads of the four major families made it clear that the rewards of knowledge and deeds in the future would be close to the Zhao family! But you warriors have to take the land that is enough to give you!
And this is also the reason why the troops of the four major families directly turned all the occupied territories into direct jurisdictions regardless of it, which is related to their knowledge and deeds!
And they deliberately created an incident and deliberately caused an uprising of the enemy family warriors, so naturally they also had the same goal, to increase their own merits! The killed samurai had a fixed merit, and the surrendered samurai had almost no merit. Therefore, the samurai of the four major families, I wish that all the samurai of the enemy fought bravely to the death!
Because I keep fighting like this, when I fight the whole county, I can't say that I can get a reward of a few hundred stones! In this case, of course, if you can force you to rebel, you can force you to rebel, and you can persecute yourself if you force it too much!
After this was told by the drunken samurai of the four major families, the Grand Alliance families of the four counties were all boiling. But there is no way, the strength is not as good as others, so I can only watch the other party crush all the way.
The four major families don't accept it at all! It is clear that he wants to use half of the county's territory as a capital to reward his subordinates in the future. And the samurai heads of these families are also meritorious in the eyes of the samurai of the four major families! I can't wait to cut it all down!
Can't beat it. Do not accept the drop. As a result, there was no way, and the big alliance families of the four counties all abandoned their territories, took their families and some valuable assets, and ran towards Lingwu City at a high speed.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. Now Dongshengguo is the battle between the Zhao family and the four alliances, and these little deflated ones can't participate, if they still want to pick and choose among these five forces before.
But now the four major families have come up with this kind of thing that does not accept surrender, and they also take it for granted and preach everywhere, what are the small families in the four counties are repeated villains, and their own families have suffered from it for many years, so they do not accept it!
The path to defect to the four major families was cut off, and there was no result but to defect to the Zhao family! So in an instant, the Zhao family's Ling Wucheng immediately increased, and I don't know how many warriors came to join with their families.
And the more important news is that the old leaders of the Ling family actually joined forces and directly requested the Zhao family to attach it. Apparently they were aware of it too. Under the actions of the four major families, he would not be able to establish himself as an independent force at all!
In order to preserve the foundation, it is better to follow the Zhao family, who became famous for their generosity! As for whether it would be too shameless to defect to the enemy! Please, these days, the revenge of killing the father and the son and taking the wife is really nothing! On the contrary, the hatred of exterminating the retainers is the real hatred!
The Zhao family didn't want to deprive everyone of their retainers, and in the face of an irresistible enemy, who else could they go to if they didn't defect to the Zhao family, who else could they go to?
And Zhao Hu naturally sensed the situation of the four major families, and of course began to transfer troops and materials to Lingwu City to hoard. Because if there was a war with the four major families, Lingwu City would be the most important city on the battlefield.
It's a normal thing, you must know that when the Ling family was one of the five major cities of Dongsheng Kingdom before, the main city of the five families was the most important city on the front.
Since Zhao Hu occupied Ling Wu City, and the four major families were eyeing each other, he naturally had to hoard his strength here in Ling Wu City! However, now is the busy agricultural period, and Zhao Hu can only let the 10,000 standing army as laborers, transporting all kinds of materials back and forth to Lingwu City.
