The defenders of Zheng Guo were defeated like a mountain, and the remaining soldiers fled in the city, panicking.

It took nearly two hours for the three legions to work together to clear the remnants, and gather the soldiers who had laid down their arms and surrendered to the official palace in the city, and put them in custody.

After that, the Cangjun put up a notice to appease the people and at the same time promote the policies of the Cangguo.

As for the content of the policy, it is nothing more than emphasizing land policy and meritorious lords, etc., no matter whether Dongyang City can be defended or not, first sow a seed, as long as it has the support of the people, the post-war governance and stability maintenance work will be much easier.

At Wei Zhongquan's signal, some of the soldiers rushed into the homes of the nobles in the city, burned the title deeds in public, and then began a simple division of the fields.

In this regard, the people are also very worried, if Dongyang City has belonged to Cangguo, then it must be that every ordinary person is happy, but at present, the Cang army has only temporarily occupied Dongyang City, and the future is still full of uncertainty.

Even, with the current strength of the Cang army, it is simply unable to govern the countryside, and many remote places do not know that the city has been breached.

Suddenly, something very peculiar appeared in the city.

Many servants of the nobles volunteered to become rebels and help Cangguo destroy Zheng Guo.

In this regard, the major generals were not only surprised, but of course very happy.

The slave of the aristocracy, the social status is similar to that of the livestock, the master wants to fight, he wants to kill, not only does he not have any freedom in his usual life, but he also has no right to give birth, he suffers a lot when he is young, and when he is old, he is sad at night, and when he does not do anything, he is killed by the master who finds a random opportunity, and it can be said that he is worse than a dog.

And now, when the slaves become the rebels, a community of interests has been formed, and these people will become a group of hardcore supporters of the Cangjun.

This also just makes up for the shortcomings of the current Cangjun army, these rebels lack a little fire in attacking the city, but they are completely okay as defenders.

Immediately, Wei Zhongquan issued a marshal order, exempting them from slavery, restoring their status as civilians, and promising that they would always be a member of the Cangguo, and if the army retreated, he would take them with him.

As soon as this commander order was issued, many ordinary people inside and outside Dongyang City also heard the news, and some civilians living at the bottom of the society also asked to join the rebel army.

Wei Zhongquan selected some young and strong men from among them, compiled them into a rebel army of more than 3,000 people, and distributed some of the captured weapons to these rebels for use.

"No, it always feels a little unreal, and I have to report it to His Majesty the Emperor."

That night, when the generals discussed the matter of the rebel army together, Wei Zhongquan was very worried, not because he felt dangerous, but because he felt strange in his heart, as if he had discovered a particularly novel thing.

The rest of the generals also nodded in agreement, and had the same feeling in their hearts, but they just couldn't tell what was strange.

So, after some deliberation, the generals decided to send the news back to His Majesty the Emperor, who was sitting in the rear.

So, early the next morning, Yang Mu received Wei Zhongquan's urgent military report, focusing on the matter of the three thousand righteous army.

"Slaves and Commoners......

After reading it, Yang Mu was shocked, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and walked back and forth in the handsome tent happily.

His excitement was not because of the addition of these 3,000 volunteers.

Because, for the current Cang army, it is good to add a few thousand peasant soldiers, but it has not yet been made to the point of excitement.

Perhaps even Wei Zhongquan and others themselves did not understand that they had inadvertently unleashed something that the ruling class regarded as a beast of prey—a peasant uprising!

In ancient China, once the people were dissatisfied with real life and the government persecuted, it was easy to embark on a path to overthrow the existing ruling class, which was called a peasant uprising.

As far as Yang Mu knew, there had never been a peasant uprising in this land for hundreds of years.

Is it that the people are obedient and do not know how to resist?

Of course not, because the most fundamental purpose of the peasant revolt is to express dissatisfaction with the status quo at the bottom of society, in order to overthrow the existing tyrannical rule and establish a new ruling class.

And in this world, peasant uprisings do not break out.

Because, even if the existing ruling class is overthrown, it only means that the top ruling class is replaced, and life is only improved by a small number of people, which does not help the lives of ordinary people.

Just like an old saying, the nature of the country is easy to change, and whether the emperor is changed or not, everyone's life will not be much different.

Therefore, there is no soil for armed uprising in this land, and no one risks their lives to take the lead in rebellion.

Of course, there is also a very important factor, that is, the country in this land is too small, the power of the nobility is pervasive, and the common people simply have no ability to start uprisings and riots, and before they have time to snowball to grow up, they will be quickly extinguished in the embryonic stage.

This is like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no matter how difficult the life of the common people is, no rebel army was born, but after the unification of Qin, the first peasant uprising in history broke out in Daze Township.

The two are the same thing.

And the Northern Expedition of the Cang Army, as well as a series of ideological slogans put forward, are tantamount to pointing out a direction for those who are struggling at the bottom and outlining a beautiful blueprint.

This is equivalent to modern China, the red party was originally very weak, but because it has a clear vision, it depicts a desirable society for the people, so it has the support of thousands of ordinary people.

This is why every successful uprising in history has been accompanied by a bell-bell-sounding slogan, which is tantamount to providing a beautiful vision and becoming the motivation for ordinary people to drop their hoes and take up arms.

Cangjun provides this vision.

With this vision, the peasant uprising, which was regarded by the ruling class as a beast of prey, finally broke out in Zheng State!

It's just that this peasant uprising broke out a little deformed, if it weren't for Yang Mu, a traverser, no one would have been able to see that it was a peasant uprising.

The current Cangjun is equivalent to the leader of the peasant army, and these Zheng civilians who joined the righteous army are the rebel army that rose up against Zheng Guo's rule!

If before this, Yang Mu was only seven points sure of annexing Zheng Guo, then now, it has become ten percent!

"Shen An, come here." Yang Mu beckoned to Shen An, who was standing aside, and said: "Spread my will, issue an edict condemning the cruelty of the royal family and nobles of Zheng State, and call on all civilians and slaves to rise up and rebel, and occupy the government rule in the major cities. ”()
