Chapter 554: Yuan Shu who vomited blood
"That's a good idea, but we're going to split our forces." Ye Chen and they only have an army of 10,000, although the army of 10,000 is quite a lot, but it is a little insufficient to divide the troops.
To prevent Yuan Shu, there are no 5,000 soldiers and horses who can't defend it, and 5,000 soldiers and horses can only block it for a while.
"Lord, in fact, we can recruit troops on the spot, and then train immediately, and we can also select some of those troops to be incorporated into our army, although their combat effectiveness is not good, but it will be no problem to defend at that time."
Ye Chen has always taken the route of elite soldiers, so he has no intention of expanding his troops at this time and reducing his combat effectiveness, but Guo Jia's method is not impossible, anyway, defensive operations, just blocking them for a while, and the combat effectiveness is almost almost.
In this way, they can reduce their own troop consumption, but they must be trained separately, not with the escort battalion, and the combat effectiveness of the escort battalion must be guaranteed.
"Okay, then I'll leave 3,000 people for you, and the other 7,000 people won't stay here, go south directly, and occupy their city." Ye Chen knew the importance of time, a part of the army went directly south, and then occupied the city, as long as it was blocked here for a few days, and then Yuan Shu could no longer catch up with him.
Ye Chen asked Guan Yu and Tai Shici to set off with the army and continue to go south, while he took Zhao Yun, Xu Huang and the tiger head to stay for the time being, and Xu Huang was directly arranged to defend the city and train new soldiers.
Xu Huang has a set of training and defending the city, and it is most suitable for him to do these things.
The guard battalion occupied the city, and then began to clean up, and of course the families and rich families in the city could not escape, and were arrested one by one.
"Lord, I got the news that the heads of several families in the city fled from the city yesterday with their families and money, and their whereabouts are unknown." Guo Jia, who went to blackmail, came back to report Ye Chen and said.
This is not surprising, as the news has already reached this side.
Ye Chen stood up, walked away, and then said, "This is looking for death, I really thought I wouldn't kill people."
”
Ye Chen really didn't want to kill more, he didn't kill a single person after occupying the city before, but someone didn't open his eyes and sent him to kill him, he didn't mind killing a few.
"Burn down their houses, and send out of the city to search them, find them as much as possible, and confiscate all their property in the city."
"Well, the lord has a good method, to set an example, there is no worry about his life if he is honestly slaughtered, if he cheats and cheats, he will lose even more." Guo Jia smiled and said that he was not in a hurry to do it, because they were going to occupy Bowang for a long time, and they had time.
Originally, Ye Chen would not touch those real estates, and he couldn't take those things away, but some people also knew this, so they took the money out of the city and threw these real estate in the city.
Before, Ye Chen and the others occupied the city for two days at most, thinking that they would take refuge for the time being, and they could come back after they left, so that there would be no loss.
"In addition, these people must not be able to run far, even if they run far, it doesn't matter, we occupy Bowang, most of the counties of Nanyang are under our control, and then find them out, and after finding out, they will not be so polite to them." Ye Chen had already decided to raise the butcher knife.
The killing is to warn everyone in Nanyang to cooperate well, wait obediently at home to be slaughtered, and then nothing happens, if you don't cooperate, you won't be so lucky at that time.
After Guo Jia reported to Ye Chen, he quickly went to execute, there were so many people in the city, under coercion, it was very easy to find out the property of those fleeing families, and after these properties were confiscated, many of them were directly destroyed.
The house burned down, the shop was smashed, and then demolished.
Why not sell it?
These big families have huge power, and no one dares to buy them if they sell them, even if they are forced to buy, they will come back and go over directly.
So the best way is to burn a fire and let them run, if they don't run, the money Ye Chen wants will not be the money of a mansion, this time they will lose a lot.
When Ye Chen controlled Bowang and strengthened the city wall in Bowang and prepared to defend for a while, Yuan Shu finally got the news.
Yuan Shu got the news a little later than Ye Chen and they estimated, because they had a large amount of baggage in their ranks, so the marching speed was very slow.
"Ye Chen, Ye Chen!" When Yuan Shu heard the news, he gritted his teeth and called out Ye Chen's name.
"Lord, this Ye Chen is too hateful, we must go south immediately and destroy them, otherwise Nanyang will be tormented by them." Yuan Shu's subordinates were in a hurry, he was also from Nanyang, this Ye Chen might raise the butcher's knife on their heads, so he had to be anxious.
"I must kill Ye Chen." Yuan Shu was angry and yelled.
This Nanyang is his territory, and if Ye Chen messes with it, he will definitely leave a mess for him, and he will feel good when the time comes.
"Quick, divide 10,000 people, set off immediately, and be sure to intercept Ye Chen." After Yuan Shu was angry, he knew that it was a big deal to let Ye Chen stop continuing to go south to scrape.
"But, my lord, tens of thousands of troops couldn't help it at the beginning, and now there are 10,000 people?" As soon as Yuan Shu's generals heard this, 10,000 people were going to intercept Ye Chen, and they were frightened and had the intention to refuse, but it was difficult to say it clearly.
Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment, as if 10,000 was really too little, but he only had more than 20,000 troops, if they were all gone, then who would protect these treasures?
"Damn Ye Chen." Yuan Shu found that he really had no way to take Ye Chen for a while.
"Lord, you should first send a team to Hongyang County to understand the situation, and then make further plans." Yuan Shu's subordinates suggested.
"Okay, immediately send 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard, and go immediately.
Yuan Shu shouted.
"Alas, I knew why I was messing with this demon king at that time?" Yuan Shu sat in the carriage and regretted it, he thought that his tens of thousands of troops could make Ye Chen suffer a big loss, but it turned out that he was the first to suffer.
Now Yuan Shu didn't know where Ye Chen was, but he also knew that he would definitely not do anything good.
After a night, more news came.
"Poof~ Ye Chen, you are so ruthless."
Yuan Shu received more news and knew that Ye Chen had swept away the materials of a county town, not only money and food, but even the family would have to be swept away.
Yuan Shu relied on the support of these families, and these families were all scraped by Ye Chen, and there was something to do with himself at that time.
Moreover, Ye Chen still hit himself for robbing him of his things and asked them to compensate.
When Yuan Shu went back, he didn't know how many families resented him.
Yuan Shu wants to collect grain and grass, and someone wants to govern the place, all of which have to ask these families for help, and when Ye Chen helps himself offend these families, it will definitely be very troublesome.
