Chapter 121: Cut through the mess with a quick knife
Li Chun and Wang Xiao came together, and some of the guards they brought made Liu Yan look familiar. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Liu Yan is not mistaken, it should be to protect the warrior named Wang Yu?
"Wang Yu?" Wang Xiao smiled and said, "That's the junior in the clan. ”
Donglai Academy is not a family private school, it will absorb some outstanding talents, it seems normal for families on the SD Peninsula to have children studying in the academy?
Liu Yan has a bad sense of Donglai Academy, but he has never shown it in front of people other than Ji Chang. He politely said a few words and asked the two families about their intentions.
Li Chun and Wang Xiao glanced at each other, and the latter explained his intentions, but he first expressed that the two families supported Liu Yanqing to suppress a group of people in Changguang County, but said that it was not good to die too many people.
Under the two-year "food order", the thorns have been exterminated by Liu Yanqing batch after batch, and the population of Changguang County has decreased by nearly 30% compared with the original. The Li and Wang families are obviously worried, those small families have been wiped out, is it their turn next?
Some things need to be open and honest, and Liu Yan knows that the two heads of the family have shown the greatest sincerity when they came over in person. Although they didn't say it explicitly, they deliberately brought the warriors they had seen Liu Yan, indicating that they didn't know what Liu Yan wanted to do.
In the past, when Liu Yan encountered such a thing, the biggest possibility was to get mad, but now he is relatively bland.
In these families, betting on both sides, or even long bets, is really a very common thing. Liu Yan knew that he couldn't expect them to fully support him, especially when his strength was not strong, and he was in a crisis.
"To tell you the truth, my side may have a big conflict with Yao Yimai of the Yao family." Liu Yan gave a brief introduction, and said: "I won't interfere too much with the choice of the two of you." It's impossible not to cut off those families that have gathered together! ”
The Li and Wang families are strong enough, but they want to change Liu Yan's established strategy? That's thinking too much. It is useless for them to add Donglai Academy, the powerful Han Department has the almost perfect retreat of the Miaodao Islands, and Changguang County will be broken if it is broken, and even the pressure of the Yao family or Shi Bin can be resisted, and they still care about the pressure of the Li Wang family and the Donglai Academy?
"Your Majesty, are they gone?" Ji Chang came over with Cai You, and after they sat down, Ji Chang said, "Do the two families have a choice?" ”
Liu Yan said "hehe" a few times and said with a smile: "Not every family has the courage to be virtuous. ”
Decai is Cai Wei's expression, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The families in Dongmu County themselves rely on the sea for food, and it doesn't matter if they don't go to the sea or not." Who doesn't have a big family like the Li and Wang families with 10,000 acres of land on land? It's just right that it's hard to give up. If they are willing, the villain will persuade the king to be careful. ”
Liu Yan and Ji Chang agreed with Cai Wei's statement.
Truly! If a family like the Li and Wang families are willing to give up the land, there is definitely a big problem.
When plotting against Dongmu County, there are common interests within Changguang County, and there is no strong family in Dongmu County as resistance, so everyone can still seek common ground while reserving differences. However, now the Yao family, which is a behemoth in Later Zhao, is plotting against the Han Dynasty, and the Li and Wang families are not small families, so they can't make a decision as easily as some people.
"Most of the families in Cabinet County swear to die." Xiqian Boliao maintained a saluting posture: "My subordinates have brought all the people who are willing to migrate with us!" ”
Cabinet County? It is the first area that Liu Yan swallowed in Changguang County, and those families are also the first to benefit, and most of the families are willing to follow, perhaps because they see the potential of the Han Department, I am afraid that they have been on the ship for too long and can't get off.
Sure enough, Xiqian Bailiao told some more things later, and he and Su Le's family had eliminated those families who were unwilling to cooperate according to the prior instructions.
"Divide the captives of those families." Liu Yan must give sweetness to the obedient family, and said: "Whoever contributes the most can get the corresponding land in the Miaodao Islands." ”
Xiqian Bailiao breathed a sigh of relief and joyfully expressed his loyalty again.
The cleaning of Cabinet County is only the first batch, and there will be other areas next, and Changguang County and even Dongmu County will be a bloody storm before spring ploughing.
The Han army was exhausted, and the private soldiers of the families who were willing to obey the order were cleared from place to place, some areas were cleared with the cooperation of local families, and some areas were completely cleared.
The movement on the side of Changguang County is not small, especially in the spring to carry out such a big move, even if Liu Yan sent an official letter to Guanggu City in advance, there is still considerable concern over there.
The Han tribe will not stop the purge because of anyone's attention or obstruction, except for a few people who are temporarily unable to move, the rest of the people who did not obey the instructions are within the scope of the purge, and in an instant the war spread throughout almost the entire Changguang County, and the rabble that gathered to resist was annihilated first, and then those who were not in the walled city or the dock fort, and finally the walled city and the dock fort.
This time, after the war, Liu Yan no longer accepted surrender, as long as any force could not get along with the Han tribe, unless it was a tribe to flee, even if he was in the walled city or dock fort, he was still attacked one after another.
Attacking the walled city or the dock fort, the Han Department has a large number of stone throwing carts and bed crossbows, and the repeated attacks are all stone bullets, if the solid city wall is up to five or six meters thick, it is just that, but where does the walled city and the dock fort come from five or six meters thick, and the two layers of thicker structures below cannot be bombarded, and the walls that are less than 20 centimeters thick above the three floors can not be bombarded?
"It's broken!" Li Tan shouted loudly: "Prepare to fight!" ”
Directly in front of the Han army, under the continuous smashing of stone bullets, a large-scale collapse of the dock fort is occurring, one wall is followed by the next, and the defenders who do not want to be buried by the ruins can only open the door to break through, but they collided with the Han archers who had long been ready to cover and shoot on a large scale, almost how many people died when they came out, and the fish that were caught in the net rushed to the front of the sword and shield soldiers were also the fate of being dismembered by the knife.
After two years of high-intensity training, and then the nutrition of the food can keep up, the once thin young man has become a strong man full of muscles.
Attack the walled city and the dock fort continuously, and you can accumulate experience if you have enough times, and you basically don't need to bombard too much in the back, and know where the vulnerable location of the walled city or dock fort is. It doesn't matter if it's hard to collapse, isn't it okay if the catapult doesn't throw stones? Throw the fierce fire oil instead, and if you don't come out and surrender, you will all burn it into charcoal.
The purge progressed much faster than expected, almost by the time of spring ploughing, those who should have fled had already left the walled city or the dock fort to escape, most of them would encounter the cavalry and horse team led by Xu Zheng in the wilderness, and those who surrendered were killed by one out of ten, and the rest were enslaved. If you resist to the end, then you will all die.
It may be that the combat effectiveness shown by the Han Department is too terrifying, first a neutral family couldn't stand the pressure and chose to take refuge, and then it formed an effect, and in the end, Li Chun's family and Wang Xiao's family, who wanted to help each other, also had to express their position.
The two families of King Li sent people to Liu Yan's side and each presented 500 stone of grain.
For the Li and Wang families, the Han Department discussed it internally and decided to accept it conditionally. After all, these two families are too big, not those small and medium-sized families that can't turn over, and it will definitely take a long time to really go to war, which will have a relatively big impact on the cross-sea invasion that the Han Department is about to start.
"For each family, half of the family's private soldiers will be drawn and no less than three thousand young men will be sent." Liu Yan's face was non-negotiable, and he looked at Wang Yu with majesty: "Don't say anything else, just say yes or no." I would love you to say no. ”
Wang Yu's cheeks twitched, his appearance was more illustrative, and he wanted to rely on that Donglai Academy to add pressure to the Han Department, but Liu Yan didn't give him a chance to talk nonsense at all.
The movements of the Han Department were too big, but they won many battles, and the army was defeated one after another, but the army became more and more elite and good at fighting.
In the face of Liu Yan, who showed madness as soon as the war started, Wang Yu just had a thousand words, and the other party was only willing to listen to the answer and not listen to other words, what else could he do? It's just that no matter how much you have to plan, you don't want to lose too much, so you can only admit it.
