There are armies, cities, and territories. It's finally the starting point, and the next one will be even more exciting.
Ask for votes for support
When he marched into the center of the city, Chen Sheng remembered something. couldn't help but ask Zhao Yundao next to him: "Zilong, what happened to Jiang Guang?" Did you surrender, or was you killed? ”
"According to the report of the corporal under his command, he killed himself." Zhao Yun replied.
"Self-slaughter? is still a man, and he was buried thickly. Chen Sheng paused for a moment when he heard this, and then said.
"No."
Zhao Yun promised.
Soon after, the group arrived at Jiang Guang's mansion.
"It's really unimpressive." When Chen Sheng saw this, he immediately laughed.
No, Jiang Guang's mansion is bigger and more magnificent than Zhang Xiu's mansion.
"Meet General Chen."
Outside the gate of the house, there were many people standing, and when they saw the army coming, they couldn't help but salute.
"Are you a city official?" Seeing this, Chen Sheng withdrew his gaze and asked with a cheer.
"Exactly."
The men saluted in unison.
"Who's Changshi?" Chen Sheng asked again.
"In Xia Deng Qiang, it is the long history of the city." A middle-aged man stepped out of the crowd and saluted. Although he spoke, he kept his head down and looked terrified.
Seeing this, Chen Sheng said with a pleasant face: "Jiang Guang blocking the army is the first crime. Now, Jiang Guang has committed suicide. I will not condemn you, wait, wait, and be relieved. ”
"Thank you, General Chen."
All the officials, including Deng Qiang, were obviously relieved when they heard this, and thanked them.
"Thou art a long history, and thou shalt have a table of the population of the five cities, and of the grain and grass, and of the blades, of gold, silver, and money." Immediately, Chen Sheng said to Deng Qiang.
"It's in the next hand." When Deng Qiang heard this, he immediately took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve, obviously coming prepared.
"Okay."
Chen Sheng smiled with satisfaction when he saw this. After that, he looked around at everyone and said, "When you release the Anmin list, forget it today." Tomorrow the city will be opened and it will resume business as usual. In addition, personnel were dispatched to lobby the surrounding cities. It is said that surrender will save you from death, and if you close the city and block the army, you will not be killed. ”
"No." The rest of the officials agreed in unison.
"Come with me." After giving the order, Chen Sheng greeted Deng Qiang. Together with Zhao Yun, Zhou Cang and others, they entered Jiang Guang's mansion and went straight into the hall.
Soon after, inside the hall.
Chen Sheng knelt in the main position, and Zhao Yun, Zhou Cang, and Deng Qiang knelt on both sides. In Chen Sheng's hand, he was holding a bamboo slip.
It's the watch book.
Soon after, Chen Sheng put down the book. I thought about it.
According to the records in the table, there were 38,925 people in the five cities, including Gwangseong. Up and down, there may be mistakes, but the general meaning should be right.
In addition, grain and grass can feed an army of 6,000 for half a year.
Weapons, several leather armor.
There were two thousand gold, some silver, and countless copper coins.
As expected before the war, these 30,000 or 40,000 people can barely support three or four thousand elite soldiers, plus the food, gold and silver in the city, I can also recruit 6,000 elite soldiers.
Even if there is no progress in the future, it can be eaten for a year and a half.
Besides, as long as I have the opportunity, I will expand my forces and forces.
Anyway, there is nothing wrong with feeding an army of six thousand.
Although Chen Sheng had expected it before the war, only now that he saw the official watch book, he was truly sure and let go of his heart.
Chen Sheng's eyes couldn't help but show a little joy.
Five cities, 30,000 or 40,000 people, a number of baggage, resources, this battle is worth it.
"By the way, I forgot one thing." Suddenly, Chen Sheng remembered something, and couldn't help but look up and ask Deng Qiang: "I remember that Fang Gan is a big businessman with thousands of gold. His assets, but they were transported to Guangcheng? ”
But it was Chen Sheng who passed by Anzhong and wanted to rob Fang Gan. But Fang Gan had already escaped with the family property, so Chen Sheng believed that the assets must be in Guangcheng.
"General Huiyu, he is in Guangcheng."
Deng Qiang replied.
"Okay." Chen Sheng's face was overjoyed when he saw this, and then he said to Zhou Cang: "Go down in person and copy Fang Gan's house." Immediately, Chen Sheng said again: "Not only Fang Gan, but even Jiang Guang, including his general Huaisheng, have all copied them." Accumulate as much as you can, gold, silver, money, and food. ”
"No."
Zhou Cang promised and went down to execute.
Deng Qiang saw that his body trembled slightly, and he was a little scared.
And Zhao Yun didn't say anything, becoming a king and defeating a villain. Those who fail naturally have to pay the price. Moreover, for the Yellow Turban Liukou, the gold and silver money are generally hidden in their own homes.
The leading generals are all very rich, and it is necessary to collect and confiscate the army.
This is the starting capital.
With Chen Sheng entering the city and making various measures, the entire Guangcheng is developing in the direction that Chen Sheng expects.
First of all, the surrender of troops was controlled, and then, the list of people was released, and the people gradually accepted this reality, and the people's hearts tended to be stable.
Besides, Zhou Cang sent people to raid the mansions of Jiang Guang and other leading generals, and obtained countless gold, silver, and money.
According to the final statistics, there were 6,000 gold, 1,000 silk, and countless silver and copper coins.
This gold and silver, wealth, copper money, etc., Chen Sheng divided a part of it and rewarded the meritorious soldiers. In the end, only four thousand five hundred gold and eight hundred silk remained. Silver, copper coins, etc.
After this, the soldiers were happy, and the morale of the army was greatly boosted.
In addition, news also came from the rest of the cities, and the respective county orders and guards all expressed their submission.
Huang Kun, when it was about to fall at night, everything in the city was already in order.
Guangcheng and other five cities have completely become Chen Sheng's bag.
At this time, Liao Hua led five hundred elite soldiers and escorted two or three thousand soldiers to Guangcheng. Chen Sheng received the news and led Zhou Cang out of the city to greet him.
"General."
Outside the city, Liao Hua dismounted and greeted Dao.
"Yuan Jian is exempt." Seeing this, Chen Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to help Liao Hua and said.
"How's it going? How is the iron armor preserved? Immediately after, Chen Sheng couldn't wait to ask. The two hundred iron armor is Chen Sheng's heart.
"General Huiyu, two hundred iron armors, most of them are well preserved, but they are a little damaged." Liao Hua said.
When Chen Sheng heard this, he suddenly showed a look of pain. Then, he hurriedly said to Zhou Cang behind him: "Send someone immediately to invite Mr. Fang Rolling to repair and forge iron armor." ”
Of course, the broken ones should be repaired. And iron armor is also a sharp weapon and an important strategic resource. Now, Chen Sheng has gold and silver, so he is naturally ambitious.
In addition, there is a famous craftsman who rolls in, so there is no reason not to use it.
"No."
Zhou Cang promised and immediately went down to handle it.
At this point, things are basically done. There's only one thing left.
"Come, Yuan Jian will follow me into the city and celebrate together." Chen Sheng said to Liao Hua with a smile.
Occupying the five cities, how can there be less celebration banquets? Chen Sheng had already been ready.
"No." Liao Hua's face also showed a bit of joy when he heard this, and said.
Immediately, Chen Sheng, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang entered the city together, and gathered Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Fang Gu, and Deng Qiang and other officials in the city to celebrate their achievements.
