Chapter 61: Hold the fiefdom
It seemed like an ordinary night, but it was an undercurrent.
Overnight, all the five thousand people in Fenglan City were killed, and half of the fifty hundred leaders were directly killed.
The next morning, Yue Chen led everyone from outside Fenglan City to ride a high-headed horse and swaggered into the city.
The commander of the defenders at the city gate stopped Yue Chen and his party and asked:
"I don't know who Your Excellency is?"
The vice captain of the Sharp Knife Team stepped forward and said:
"This is the Marquis of Yue Chen, who has come to take over the fiefdom by order. ”
Of course, the commander of the garrison had heard Yue Chen's name, but he was still puzzled:
"To be honest, Fenglan City did receive the news. But what other credentials does Marquis Yue have?"
The vice captain was about to have a seizure, but Yue Chen stopped him, and after dismounting, he took out the death-free iron coupon from the ring.
After the commander of the garrison took the iron coupon, he looked at it fixedly, and there were three large gilded characters "Zhenxi Hou" written on it, and a line of small characters "Iron Coupons for Avoiding Death" was attached below.
After seeing this, the commander quickly knelt down and said:
"There were a lot of big things in the city last night, and my subordinates had to check carefully, and I hope that the Marquis of Yue will forgive his sins!"
Yue Chen smiled slightly, stepped forward to help the commander and said:
"Are you the iron-faced and selfless Zhang Guangrui?"
Zhang Guangrui looked at Yue Chen in surprise and asked:
"Master Hou knows his subordinates?"
Yue Chen nodded and said:
"Of course you know, you were on an errand in the capital, and because you were not afraid of power when enforcing the law, you killed a relative of the royal family, and got this iron-faced and selfless name.
After a long time, when people forgot about this matter, Qin Jian was entrusted by the nobles in the palace to secretly deploy you to this Fenglan City and become a big soldier. ”
Speaking of this, Yue Chen changed his words and asked:
"Have you ever regretted it?"
When Zhang Guangrui heard this, he smiled faintly and said calmly:
"I was serving that bowl of rice, and I had to be worthy of my own rice bowl, I just did what I had to do, what regrets.
Just like today I stopped Master Hou, this is my duty, even if you are unhappy and take revenge on your subordinates, your subordinates will still do it!"
Hearing this, Yue Chen laughed and said three times in a row:
"Haha, well, because of your temperament, you have fallen to this point, but it is precisely because of this reason that hundreds of people are on your side, and you have been able to save your life.
Come with me into the city, I'm going to change places for you!"
"Yes. ”
Afterwards, Zhang Guangrui followed Yue Chen into the city and went straight to the city lord's mansion.
In fact, when Yue Chen listened to Lin Wanli's report the day before, he noticed this Zhang Guangrui and kept his appearance in his heart.
After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Yue Chen summoned all the defender commanders and asked Zhang Guangrui in front of them:
"Do you know who did what happened last night?"
"The subordinates don't know, but it must have been done by some righteous man, because those who die are those who deserve to die. ”
"Well, last night's incident was done by Ben Hou. ”
Hearing this, all the defending generals were taken aback, and they were secretly amazed in their hearts.
The generals who are alive now are all people who fulfill their duties on weekdays and never oppress the people, and of course they are not used to looking down on those generals who have died.
Zhang Guangrui glanced at Yue Chen, and there was something indescribable in his eyes.
"I have personally removed the one who took the lead, and I will leave the rest of the small fish and shrimp to you. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Zhang Guangrui listens to orders!"
"The subordinates are here!"
"Ben Hou ordered you to be the general of Fenglan City, and the five thousand defenders in the city are under your command, Ben Hou asks you to maintain your true nature, as you said, take care of your own rice bowl!"
"Genus...... The last general commands!"
"Lin Wanli listens to orders!"
"The subordinates are here!"
"Ben Hou ordered you to be the city lord of Fenglan City, and you have to cooperate sincerely with General Zhang to change Fenglan City for me!
The strategy of governing the city refers to Jinghai City, and if there is something that cannot be solved, contact me. ”
With that, Yue Chen took out two sound transmission stones from the ring and threw them to the two of them.
After taking the sound transmission stone, Lin Wanli said:
"The subordinates will receive the order! It is determined that General Zhang will cooperate sincerely and change Fenglan City!"
At this moment, Yue Chen's words changed and said:
"More than half of the generals of Fenglan City were killed by me, but I only have to kill people, regardless of the appointment, the vacant position, you find someone and I will fill it as soon as possible.
If there is a recurrence of the people who oppressed the people like before, I will not only cut them, do you have a problem? If there is a problem, talk about it now!"
After listening to Yue Chen's words, the two shouted in unison:
"No problem!"
"Well, it's better to do this, and the money in the account of the trading bank will also be used to build Fenglan City for the time being.
Give you half a year, and after half a year, hand me over a million gold coins every month, and if you can't get it, you will go and rob the bandits and bandits for me!
In short, I don't care what method you use, there is one rule, the tax only needs to be lowered or not raised!"
Yue Chen's implication is that it will take half a year to make the people rich, and when the people get rich, the taxes will naturally go up.
After explaining this, Yue Chen left the City Lord's Mansion with the Sharp Knife Team.
In the next half month, Yue Chen recovered the remaining two cities in the same way, and appointed the Great Elder and Second Elder of the Yue Family as the City Lord of the Second City respectively.
Subsequently, he led the Dynasty Sharp Knife Team to wipe out all the bandits and bandits around the three cities.
Among them, Yue Chen directly slaughtered those who colluded well with the big families in the city and specifically bullied the common people.
And those who were forced to rob the rich and help the poor were also absorbed by Yue Chen and directly scattered and incorporated into the two cities.
In fact, by doing this, Yue Chen was deliberately delaying the time to return to Jinghai City.
Because he went back a day late, Yue Qingzhong would give him one more day of training.
The first general of Yan State personally trained himself in the army, where to find this opportunity, if he didn't let him train for a few more days, it would not be a big loss.
It wasn't until Yue Chen had done all of this that he couldn't delay any longer, so he returned to Jinghai City.
After returning to Jinghai City, Yue Chen and everyone exchanged a few words of greeting and then couldn't wait to rush to Fengming Mountain.
After Yue Chen arrived at the Fengming Mountain campus, he was really stunned.
20,000 soldiers stood neatly in the school field, all burly and heroic.
When Yue Qingzhong saw Yue Chen coming, he shouted to the 20,000 soldiers:
"Show you the results!"
"Roar!"
The 20,000 soldiers roared in unison, and the sound resounded through the sky, and the momentum of the tiger and wolf army was instantly revealed.
Before Yue Chen could recover from his surprise, all the sergeants slammed their right feet towards the ground at the same time.
Suddenly, the spiritual power was fully revealed, and the entire Fengming Mountain trembled slightly.
Yue Chen asked Chang Sheng, and his mouth opened wide in surprise.
In less than a month, all 20,000 recruits had broken through to the Spirit Pool Realm!
Five thousand of them have already broken through to the Lingtan Realm!
These 5,000 people were the 5,000 iron horsemen that Yue Qingzhong personally trained for him.
The twenty thousand-level generals have all broken through to the Lingxi Realm!
As a general, the blue army is the hardest working of all people, and while learning the art of commanding troops with Yue Qingzhong, he is stepping up his cultivation.
Not only did he not fall behind, but he took the lead in breaking through to the Spirit Canal Realm!
