Chapter 2053: There is no one left in Yizhou

Fa Zheng led the army into Chengdu.

For the first two days, the people of Chengdu were all hiding at home and did not dare to go out.

They didn't even dare to open the door, for fear that if they were not careful, they would get into trouble.

After two or three days in a row, the people found that the Wei army that entered the city actually did not commit any crimes.

Occasionally, a few people went out to beg for a living, but they were not harassed by the Wei army.

Even when they were in trouble, the patrolling Wei army would reach out to help.

Feeling that the Wei army was completely harmless, the people who had become bold gradually walked out of their homes.

A few days later, Chengdu resumed its usual hustle and bustle.

The street hawkers, open shops, and children running and chasing each other form a unique scenery in the market.

Chengdu returned to its former hustle and bustle, and the government soon issued another decree.

The decree stipulates that Chengdu and its surrounding areas, regardless of the industry, will be exempt from taxation for 10 years.

Farmers who work in agriculture will be exempt from taxes for life if they cultivate grain.

The only requirement is that all their grain must be sold to the government and not sold privately.

I thought that Chengdu would fall into the hands of the Wei army, and it would be a catastrophe if it was Fa Zheng who led the troops, but I didn't expect that what I was waiting for was ten years of tax exemption.

The people of Chengdu were suddenly in a hurry, and they even forgot about Liu Bei's benefits to the clouds.

After being stationed in Chengdu for a few days, Fa Zheng received news that the navy was heading up the Yangtze River, and that it would not be long before it reached the north bank of Rongcheng.

Receiving the news, he summoned the generals to the front hall of the official mansion.

Everyone sat down, and Fa Zheng said: "Generals, I just got the news that the navy will reach the north bank of Rongcheng in two days. We set off from Chengdu, and if the road is unimpeded, it will take three days to arrive. It seems that we are falling behind the trolls. ”

"The lord previously ordered that the Fagong wait for the opportunity, just so that the navy army could arrive earlier." Yang Xiu said: "When the navy arrives, it will have to rest for some days, and it is impossible to attack immediately. Not to mention a day late, even if it is a month late, it is not too late. ”

"Did the scouts send back any news?" Fa Zheng asked.

"Yes!" Yang Xiu replied: "The scouts didn't find any signs of enemy troops stationed along the way, so they didn't inform Fagong. ”

"From Chengdu to Rongcheng, there is no sign of enemy troops stationed all the way?" Fa Zheng asked suspiciously.

"Not really." Yang Xiu said: "Not only the scouts, but we even used the fire dance in Yizhou. If the scouts can't detect it, Fire Dance can. The return was the same, there was no sign of an enemy presence along the way. ”

Fa Zheng stood up and walked back and forth in the room a few steps: "Could it be that they gave up blocking along the way?" ”

"It seems so." Yang Xiu replied: "I think it is more reasonable for them to give up blocking along the way. ”

"Dezu, please speak." Fa Zheng motioned for him to continue.

"The Yizhou army has fought many times with our army, and it has long been a loss of troops, and they can't organize a decent interception at all." Yang Xiu said: "If I were Zhuge Liang, I would definitely gather all the soldiers and horses and start a decisive battle with our army north of the Sanjiang Estuary!" ”

"What do you mean......" Fa Zheng asked, "Zhuge Liang wants to make a desperate bet?" ”

"Does he have any other choice?" Yang Xiu asked rhetorically.

Fa Zheng nodded.

Zhuge Liang did not send troops to intercept along the way, in fact, it was not too unexpected for him.

It was only through this move of the Yizhou army that he was more sure that Yizhou did not have many soldiers and horses, otherwise he would definitely not give up the mountains and natural dangers, and chose to fight the Wei army in a decisive battle at the mouth of the three rivers.

"Zhugong, there is no one in Yizhou!" Thinking about this, Fa Zheng showed a smile on his face: "They can't even gather the soldiers and horses to intercept our army, how can they stop us from seizing Yizhou and achieving the great cause of the lord for a thousand years?" ”

"The Fa Gong soldiers have been in the gods, and they have repeatedly defeated the Yizhou Army, which is really an immortal meritorious service for the Lord and the public!" Yang Xiu said: "We are willing to follow Fagong and make new contributions!" ”

Everyone got up and said together: "We are willing to follow Fagong and make new contributions!" ”

"Herald! Leave a small number of soldiers and horses to guard Chengdu, and the army will start tomorrow! "Fa Zheng gave the order to set off.

When a large army goes out to fight, generally speaking, the more people fight, the fewer people there are.

But Cao Shuo's army had a strange phenomenon.

Every time he breached a place, his army would expand.

Among them, of course, there were many strong people recruited from the captives, and there were also ordinary people who volunteered to join the army.

When Fa Zheng entered Yizhou, he only led an army of 50,000.

By the time he left Chengdu for Rongcheng, the number of his army had expanded to more than 80,000.

The newly recruited soldiers had not experienced battlefield battles, and although they wore the armor of the Wei army and were also issued with brand new weapons, they walked at the back of the line when marching.

Without enough time to train them, Fazheng could only choose to let them grow on the battlefield.

But when you go to the battlefield and send them directly to fight with the enemy, it is tantamount to sending them to death!

Recruits, especially those who have never experienced a fight, no matter how high their morale is, they will definitely not be able to support the impact of blood on them.

Only by allowing them to see blood and experience death can they gradually become true warriors of a hundred battles.

Leaving Chengdu, Fa Zheng was at the forefront of the army.

As always, Yang Xiu followed beside him.

"Dezu, break through the Sanjiangkou and capture Zhuge Liang, Yizhou is ours." Fa Zheng asked Yang Xiu: "What do you plan to do after you get Yizhou?" ”

"I got Yizhou, and Jiaozhou didn't take it, but it shouldn't be our business." Yang Xiu replied: "I heard that the lord has arranged for Sima Zhongda to crusade against Jiaozhou. ”

"Sima Zhongda?" Fa Zheng asked, "Is it Sima Yi who followed the lord in his early years?" ”

"Exactly." Yang Xiu replied: "Sima Zhongda has followed the lord for a long time, and now he has become General Zuo. With him in commanding the army, it won't be long before Jiaozhou will fall into the hands of the lord. ”

"When the world is unified, I don't know if the lord will need to be able to get us." Fa Zheng said: "Crusade against aliens, will new people be used again?" ”

"The world is so big, although there are a lot of talents, new people need to be discovered." Yang Xiu replied: "The lord is different from Liu Xuande. Liu Xuande is good at crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, but the lord is affectionate and righteous, and he will never do anything to us people. ”

"Is the Fagong suffering from Liu Xuande, so he is also worried about the lord?" Yang Xiu then asked.

"Of course I know that the lord is different." Fa Zheng said: "It's just that there are too many credits, and there is always something wrong." ”

"Don't worry!" Yang Xiu said with a smile: "Fa Gong has won the first battle of Yizhou, and the Lord will definitely use you in the future." 2k reading network
