The local tyrants of Huiji County have influence limited to the county; However, the Wu County Shi clan is more powerful, compared to it, the local tyrants of Huiji County are nothing, they are not only famous in the county, dominating one side, but also have a certain reputation in the country, and even the state pastor Liu Miao has to look at their faces to act.

Gao Shun and Qin Guan determined the goal of killing all the local tyrants and strengthening their rule over the locality, which added many difficulties for them to occupy Wu County in the future.

Next, the two discussed the plan to use troops against the accounting county.

Qin Guan said: "Lord, 5,000 junior cavalry and 15,000 junior infantry are not enough, Guan has no connections in the local area, and starting with the Yellow Turban Army, it will definitely be suppressed by the government and local tyrants, compared to Lu Zijing's start, it is even more difficult here." ”

"You are only in charge of Zhang'an County and the territory to the north, Yongning County and the area to the south, I am going to set it up as Fujian County, and I will send additional troops there, in this case, your troops will be enough." The reason why Gao Shun assigned Yongning County to Fujian was to ensure that the ships heading south would be easily replenished.

Qin Guan still insisted: "My lord, Guan still wants to take Wu County, Danyang County and Yuzhang County, the territory is not small, and these troops are obviously insufficient." ”

Gao Shun said: "Then send you more civil and military officials, you can recruit a large number of warriors and form a strong army." ”

Qin Guan was still dissatisfied, and insisted: "My lord, starting with the Yellow Turban Army, is destined to not get the support of local tyrants and scholars, if something goes wrong, it will definitely affect the lord's plan, so it is better to leave some more officers and soldiers." ”

Gao Shun had looked down on the Jiangdong forces before, and felt that there were too few troops to keep and the development was relatively slow, so he agreed to Qin Guan's request and said: "Okay, then give you three thousand more junior cavalry, one thousand and five senior cavalry, three thousand senior infantry, and five thousand junior infantry, and when you take Wu County, you will be given five thousand war horses to form cavalry, this is always okay!" ”

"Thank you for your support!" Qin Guan was overjoyed, and begged Gao Shun again: "Lord, do you want to leave two more battalions of soldiers trapped in the camp?" ”

In total, there are less than 4,000 officers and soldiers in the trapped camp, and more than 1,200 people have been released from the system, and nearly 2,500 people have not been released, thinking that they are in reserve, mainly because there is no big battle to fight now, and there are already storming battalions, first battalions and wrestler battalions, and there are no battlefields where the trapped camps play, and they can still keep them young when they are placed in the system.

After thinking about it for a while, if he was given 400, it would not have the desired effect, so it was better to leave 800 so that he could give full play to his combat power, so he said: "Okay, give you another 800 officers and soldiers in the camp, you have to take Jiangdong down for me and manage it well." ”

"Yes, my lord, Guan will never fail in his mission!" Qin Guan is very excited, with 800 traps, it will definitely sweep the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River.

As for the navy, the two had already discussed on the way here, and after he took Qiantang, Yuhang and other counties in the south of Wu County, he would form a navy with at least fifty large warships, and assist Qin Guan in establishing a shipyard in Jiangdong.

After stabilizing the two places, Gao Shun and Qin Guan entered Shanyin County, released officers and soldiers, seized the power of Huiji County, and then occupied the counties, stabilized Huiji County and then occupied Wu County, and successively became Danyang County and Yuzhang County.

Gao Shun believed that with cavalry, navy, money and food, Qinguan would become the largest force dominating Jiangdong.

Before dawn the next day, Gao Shun and Qin Guan, with the cooperation of intelligence officers, quietly came to the county office, released 500 senior infantry, successfully captured the county order, controlled the county government, and then released 2,000 junior infantry to control the county seat, and released 500 senior infantry and 1,000 junior infantry to surround the local large households.

Cheng County is located on the coast, far from the mountainous areas, and the armed forces of the local large households are weak, with less than 1,000 soldiers, and they were easily taken.

After dawn, the entire county seat of Chengxian County was under the control of Qin Guan.

Quickly appoint a middle-level civil official as the county commander of the county and a middle-level military attache as the county lieutenant; In addition, junior civil officials are appointed as county officials and chief officers.

The county lieutenant directly governs one tun cavalry and two tun junior infantry, which has become a practice since then, and the county town near the mountainous area can recruit two more tun infantry.

These people who call themselves the Yellow Turban Army are very different from the Yellow Turban Army that everyone has heard of, they are fully armored, well-armed, if they do not carefully distinguish, they still think that they are Han officers and soldiers, the difference is only that they have a yellow silk scarf around their necks.

The county ordered cavalry to spread to the townships, reduce taxes, exempt conscription, and continue to do the same.

For large families, behead the members of the lineage, confiscate property, disband the family soldiers, release the domestic slaves, distribute land and borrow food for them, and help them live and work in peace and contentment; Those who are willing to join the army are selected on the basis of merit, and those who are unwilling to join the army are never forced, and the management is relaxed, which quickly won the support of the people.

In view of such a good salary and treatment, and there can be 20 acres of tax-free land, this is very attractive to those proletarian people, and as long as one person joins the army, it is basically guaranteed that the family will no longer starve, so the enthusiasm to join the army is very great.

For them, these Yellow Turban Army are the people's troops, and only when the Yellow Turban Army is strong can their people live a good life.

In just two days, three thousand qualified infantry were recruited, Gao Shun and Qin Guan Daxi.

On the third day, after stabilizing the area, Qin Guan sent a senior military general to Sima Beibu, leading 1,000 junior cavalry, 500 senior infantry and 3,000 junior infantry, to march to Qinxian, which was less than 100 miles away.

With the arrival of the Yellow Turban Army, the county commander was so frightened that the city gate had already been closed.

Sima of the other department was not in a hurry, but according to Gao Shun's instructions, he first took over Sixiang, announced the policy of the Yellow Turban Army, confiscated the land of large families, and distributed it to the landless people, and immediately won the strong support of the people.

If the strength of the Yellow Turban Army was a little weaker, they would not dare to accept these lands, but when they saw that they were strong and well-armed, they had the backbone in their hearts, even if the county commander and the wealthy clan in the city sent all the family soldiers, they were not the opponents of these cavalry.

Jiangnan lacked horses, and they had never seen such a powerful cavalry force, which gave the local people strong confidence.

Subsequently, the infantry began to be recruited, and the good salary package made the people enthusiastically sign up, although the requirements were very strict, at least one junior infantry could be defeated or two junior infantry, and more than 1,500 people were recruited in three days.

Within a few days, the people in the city knew about the affairs outside the city, and a large number of people fled from the county seat at night.

After stabilizing the outside and gaining the support of the people, Sima of the other department asked the soldiers to shout at the city wall and persuade the county order and the big households to surrender, otherwise, there will be no chickens and dogs left on the day the city is broken.

The county commander and others were pale with fright at the head of the city, and cold sweat flowed.

There is no chance of escaping, there are so many cavalry outside the city, they can't outrun the horses.

It is impossible to hold on, there are so many Yellow Turban troops outside the city, there are more officers and soldiers than they are in the city, and the morale of the officers and soldiers in the city and the family soldiers of large families is low, and there are still people who are oriented towards the Yellow Turban Army, so that the army is unstable, and it is good not to surrender, if the Yellow Turban Army attacks the city, it will definitely fall in one go.

So, the county commander discussed with the patriarch of the local tyrant and decided to send people out of the city to negotiate, and they were also afraid that the Yellow Turban Army would slaughter the city after breaking the city.

In order to avoid the pain of the siege, Sima of the other tribe promised them that if they took the initiative to open the door and surrender, the people in the city could leave freely, and they could also leave with their belongings, but they could not force others to leave, they were not allowed to destroy houses and other facilities, and horses, cattle, donkeys and other large livestock were not allowed to be taken away, otherwise, there would be no forgiveness for killing.

This is already a rare relaxed condition for the county order and the local tyrants, you must know that when the Yellow Turban Army broke out, let alone the county order, even the assassin Shi and Taishou had many people killed, and even the king was arrested.

easily occupied the county seat, and the only ones who were willing to leave were the families of the county commander, the county magistrate and the local tyrant, and they were let go after being strictly inspected.

The county magistrates, county lieutenants, and others who accompanied them immediately took office and began to exercise their powers.

Another 500 qualified infantry were selected from the local tyrant's family soldiers, and 2,000 infantry were sent to Cheng County for training.

The news of the recurrence of the Yellow Turban Army quickly spread throughout the northern part of Huiji County, and Taishou Chen Yu was very surprised when he learned the news.

However, those big families and county commanders learned that the Yellow Turban Army was strong, and the cavalry alone was not something they could contend with, and there was a precedent for the two counties, if they resisted, they would be killed, and if they did not resist, their property would be confiscated.

After the county order and the local tyrants fled, the counties recommended candidates to go to Cheng County to contact the Yellow Turban Army, hoping that they would send troops as soon as possible, which surprised Gao Shun and Qin Guan, so the soldiers divided into two routes, leaving enough men and horses to accept the counties, Gao Shun and Qin Guan sneaked to Shanyin County, and fought to win the county governance.
