Based in Lujia Town, Chen Xian dispatched workers from all over the country to form more engineering teams, and began to capture, reinforce, and build new castles along the edge of the mountainous area in the southeast of Linqu County.

Chen Xian transferred more than 10,000 recruits to Linqu County, and in just one month, he attacked all the walled cities near the mountainous areas in the southeast, whether it was the Han landlord Haoqiang or the Jurchen Meng'an Mouke military village, none of them were spared.

After the walled city was defeated, Chen Xian unceremoniously cleaned out the vested interests in the walled city, whether it was the Jurchen landlords or the Han people.

But there are not many people who can have this kind of cleverness, and in the face of Chen Xian's increasingly mature army, the powerful family is becoming more and more vulnerable.

After the occupation of the walled city, the team of officials, police, militia, and their families transferred from all over the country lived in the walled city, and it was easy to manage the scattered people without large households.

Officials were stationed, and then there was a set of processes that had long been regulated, building schools, recruiting students, recruiting soldiers, setting up agricultural companies and construction companies, and then, according to recruiting students and recruiting soldiers, recruiting workers from agricultural companies and construction companies, and building brick-burning stoves......

In addition to occupying the walled city of the landlords, Chen Xian also took advantage of the large drop in the river at the foot of the mountain to build a large number of hydroelectric factories.

He forcibly relocated the small villages and villages in the ravines at the foot of the mountain to the fortified city......

In the spring of the second year of Zhenyou, Chen Xiansa's reconnaissance cavalry began to meet the advance of the Mongol army in the direction of Tai'an and Yidu in the north of Linqu.

Chen Xian immediately stopped the construction, he left the defense of Linqu to Li Shi, and left him an infantry regiment and a small number of light cavalry, and returned to Laiwu County himself, where he personally sat down.

Compared with Linqu, Laiwu, which has just been developed, Xintai is the fundamental place of Chen Xian.

Chen Xian's luck was good, although there were Mongol cavalry into the territory of Laiwu and Xintai counties, but these people were clearly not interested in fortified castles.

In fact, the Mongols invaded gold for thousands of miles in the first few times, but they mainly ravaged the weakly defended Jurchen military villages, as well as some scattered Han villages.

They were not willing to attack the strong fortresses of the landlords, otherwise they would not have appeared after the repeated sweeps of the Mongols, but the landlord armies in North China and Shandong had sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

On the contrary, some government-controlled towns surrendered in the face of the Mongol cavalry.

Compared with the determination of the Han landlords to defend their families, the officials of the Jin Dynasty obviously did not have the courage to sacrifice their lives to defend the country.

After a few months of turmoil, the Mongol army finally returned north.

After the Mongol army returned to the north, Chen Xian breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to start a new wave of military operations.

Chen Xian ordered Li Shi to attack Linqu County, while he himself led the army out of Laiwu and into Mengyin County via Xintai.

Chen Xian's army was divided into two in Mengyin County, one part led by Zhang Bai to the north to Yishui County, and the other part was led by Chen Xian himself to Linyi County in the south.

Chen Xian collected the refugees who were starving in the wilderness in order to avoid the Mongolian cavalry, and sent them to Mengyin and Xintai for resettlement, while attacking the landlord Haoqiang fortress in Yishui County in an orderly manner.

In this Mongol sweep, the most unlucky thing was the Jurchen Meng'an Moke military village.

It is said that it is a military village, in fact, it has long been abandoned, under the deterrence of the imperial court, the general bandits are reluctant to provoke the Jurchen military village, so the defense pressure of the Jurchen military village is far less than that of the Han people, and without pressure, there is naturally no motivation, so the defense of the Jurchen military village is very poor.

With poor defense and relative wealth, it is naturally the favorite fat sheep of the Mongols.

The second unfortunate were the relatively small Han Chinese villages, which could not afford to build strong forts, and were also targets for the Mongols.

In addition, the weak-willed county towns were also the target of the Mongols.

In the territory of North China and Shandong, the country originally belonged to the hinterland, more than 100 years after the founding of the country, there are basically no foreign enemies, most of the county towns have already been armed and abandoned, the number of archers in the county is insufficient, and the number of archers in the county is insufficient, and the training is neglected, the suppression of the displaced people are reluctant, let them resist the fierce Mongols, it is really difficult for the strongmen, coupled with the threat of the Mongols slaughtering the city at every turn, most of the county towns along the way are heard of the wind and surrendered, it is said that the Mongols cut gold for the third time, and the county towns captured are hundreds, of course, there are exaggerated, but the reality will not be too different.

On the contrary, the fortresses of the Han landlords in various places are the most well preserved.

In order to protect their property, the Han people in various places have always maintained vigilance, maintained a strong arm, and spared no effort to build fortresses to protect themselves.

Most of these Han Chinese fortresses are linked by clans, have a strong cohesion, and can maintain a fairly high morale in order to protect their families.

After the Mongols attacked several such fortresses at the beginning, they soon found that the gains outweighed the losses in attacking such fortresses, and even if they threatened to slaughter the city, these fortresses would not be like the county town of Jinguo, because for the old men, the county seat belongs to the imperial court, and if it is lost, it will be lost, and it will be able to save their lives, but for the Han people, the fortress is their own life, if they are lost, then life is better than death, so their willpower is completely different.

Therefore, in the later period, the Mongols basically took the initiative to avoid this kind of strong fortress of the Han people.

After the Mongols left, these Han Chinese took the opportunity to occupy the Jurchen military fortress and land, and gathered refugees to expand their power.

At the beginning, these Han Haoqiang only secretly took advantage of some Jurchens, and later, when the Jin court retreated to the south of the Yellow River, the Han Haoqiang began to massacre the Jurchens on a large scale, on the one hand, it was natural to vent the resentment of being bullied for a hundred years, but more to seize the land occupied by the Jurchens, but these forcibly occupied land, originally mostly belonged to homesteaders and small and medium-sized landlords, and now, they are all gathered in the hands of powerful landlords Haoqiang.

In the middle and late stages of the Mengjin War, the Jiugong of Hebei, the Han prince under the command of the Mongols, and Li Quan of Shandong all grew up on the corpses of the dead of the Jin State.

And at this time, what Chen Xian wants to do is to become the biggest corpse collector in the Golden Country!

While collecting refugees, Chen Xian occupied the military fortress and land of the scattered Jurchens, as a conqueror, the area occupied by the Jurchen military fortress was the best, and the land was the most fertile.

Compared with the sneakiness of the Han landlords in this period, Chen Xian was much more arrogant, and he blatantly began to expel and massacre the Jurchens and forcibly occupy their land.

Not only that, Chen Xian was also unceremonious to the powerful fortress of the Han landlords who stood in front of him.

The Mongols couldn't do anything about these earthen forts, but in front of Chen Xian, these earthen forts were like chickens and dogs, and under the bombardment of cannons, the originally seemingly solid earthen walls and walled gates were like papier-mâché, and they were easily smashed open.

The landlords of several counties joined forces and fought a few battles with Chen Xian's army, but in the face of Chen Xian's army's platoon guns and artillery bombardment, they were all about to collapse at the touch of a button.

After knowing that Chen Xian was powerful, these heroes either abandoned their family business and fled for their lives, or opened the door and surrendered, and a few resisted to the end and were purged by Chen Xian.

Some Haoqiang, who were unwilling to leave their hometowns, heard that Chen Xian gave preferential treatment to the big and wealthy families in the county, and they all fled into the county seat......
