The north gate let go of Guan Yu and the pottery merchants, Tao Ying led the soldiers and horses back to Xiapi City, the common people gathered in the open space in the city for a long time, seeing Tao Ying's return, tens of thousands of people began to cheer.

Zang Ba and other generals had already escorted Cao Hong's family to the middle of the bustling square, and with the cheers of the people, Tao Ying was also quite infected. It seems that he has done something that satisfies the people, which makes him feel the joy of being supported by everyone from his heart.

In order to comfort the people, Tao Ying suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "It is not my intention to win Xiapi today, but the people's aspirations, I have nothing to say!" ”

The knife and axe hand has been prepared, and when he heard that Cao Hong's family was about to be beheaded, the people became even more excited, and when Tao Yinggang said to behead, a person suddenly came from the crowd and shouted: "Slow, keep people under the master's knife!" ”

Tao Ying looked at the garlic nose who was about to pee, his face was full of fear, he raised his head and looked at the person in front of him who was stopping him, that person was none other than Cheng Chen Deng of Pengcheng County, who he had appointed.

Chen Deng went to Xiao Guan to measure the land, and Xiao Guan was too guarded to hear that Chen Deng personally came to surrender the city. Xiao Guan was originally the territory of Pei Guo in Yuzhou, but Xiao Guan was too close to Pengcheng, which made the huge city of Pengcheng completely leak to the enemy, so Tao Ying wanted to capture Xiao Pass for a long time.

But Tao Ying has been using troops everywhere, has not had time to attack Xiao Guan, Xiao Guan County Commander heard that Tao Ying fought Cao Cao, Cao Cao was defeated, shocked, and heard that Tao Ying had appointed Xu Sheng as Xiao Guan County Commander, Xiao Guan County Commander thought that he was not Tao Ying's hand, so he wanted to abandon the city and leave.

But he never thought that he heard outside the city that Chen Deng had gone to the border to measure the land, and one of the subordinates of the Xiaoguan County Commander happened to be a fellow villager of Chen Deng, so the fellow villagers persuaded the county commander to surrender to Chen Deng, maybe he could keep his position as the county commander!

Therefore, the Xiaoguan County Commander led the Xiaoguan gentry to surrender. Seeing that Xiao Pass could be won without a single soldier, Chen Deng was also very happy, so he appeased the people for Tao Ying in Xiao Guan.

I didn't want to stay here for a few days, until one day Li Dian suddenly came to report, saying that the lord Tao Ying suddenly returned from Xiapi in embarrassment, and then seized his military power and led the troops to Xiapi City.

When he left, he saw that Tao Ying was very angry, thinking that it must be because of the conflict between Miss Gan and the big clan in the city, so Li Dian hurriedly ran to Xiaoguan to report to Chen Deng, and after getting the news, Chen Deng set off overnight, changed a few horses along the way and finally arrived at Xiapi.

But when I arrived at Xiapi, the city of Xiapi had already been breached.

Tao Ying saw that it was Chen Deng who arrived, and hurriedly ordered the executioner to stop, and hundreds of descendants of the Cao family on the square collapsed on the ground in fright. Chen Deng walked to Tao Ying's side and bowed his head and said: "Lord, Cao Hong is the favorite general of the Assassin Shi, when the Assassin Shi came from Danyang, it was the rich businessmen of Danyang Cao Hong and Cao Bao, Zhenrong and others who gave up their family business to follow the Lord to conquer the south and the north to have Xuzhou today, if the Lord is like this, I am afraid that it will hurt the heart of the big family, who will dare to come to the Lord in the future?" ”

After Chen Deng finished speaking, Tao Ying was stunned in the square. The surrounding area of the square are all the families of the Mi family, the Cao family and various big clans, they don't seem to have made much mistakes, and what he did that day, he himself is a little confused, he only remembers that he came here just to get back his big seal, that's all!

After a while, Tao Ying nodded, and Chen Deng hurriedly shouted to the executioners: "Quickly retreat!" ”

When the people heard that Chen Deng wanted to release those wealthy people, they all clamored, Chen Deng wanted to stop them, but he didn't want the people to start throwing cabbage leaves at him.

Seeing that the scene began to be chaotic again, Tao Ying suddenly shouted without thinking too much: "Folks, it's not that I don't kill them today, but I supervise Peng Chengguo, they are from Xiapi Kingdom, I need to escort them all to Peng Chengguo for trial and execution!" Folks, the wealthy families have encroached on your land, from today on, all the land in Xiapi will be redistributed to you, now you go home and count the population of each family, I Tao Ying will share the land with you like Pengcheng! ”

Although the people were eager to let this group of villains die immediately, they themselves knew what the reason for their hatred of this group of villains was, in the end, they lost too much land, so they could only be enslaved and did not dare to be angry. When they heard that Tao Ying was going to divide the land in Xiapi with them, these villagers were also happy one by one, and they all seemed to have turned into serfs and made their homes!

Tao Ying asked Chen Deng to select a famous family to help manage and distribute the land, the people dispersed, the empty square fell silent again, Tao Ying sat on a big stone a little tired, recalling that in the past few months, he didn't even care about his relatives, is this still a human being?

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that he didn't damage Tao Qian anything, and he is also for the good of the people, because he is not ruthless, and with the arrival of Lu Bu next, the people of Xuzhou will only have a worse life. So what he has to do is to wait for Lu Bu to arrive, first spend a year to build the city wall of Pengcheng, and then gather the people of Xuzhou to spread all over Pengcheng, and then pile up all the money in Pengcheng, of course, there is food, and then he is going to build a paradise on earth - Pengcheng.

Maybe at that time, people will say, there is heaven above, and there is Pengcheng below!

Taishan helped the boss Zang Ba to escort the Mi family and the Cao family to the city gate, and countless soldiers found carriages to copy the countless gold and silver treasures of the Mi family and the Cao family, and the grain piled up by the Cao family made the soldiers unbelievable.

Getting Xiapi was like an adventure to get a castle full of gold, which made Tao Ying a little unexpected. He needed several million taels of gold to build the Pengcheng Palace, but Pengcheng had already been looted, so he could only let his second brother Xu Sheng and third brother Zhao Yun lead the elite soldiers to Guangling to pursue Zhenrong.

Because Zhen Rong killed Zhao Yu and plundered the entire Guangling County, he got countless amounts of money, which could be used to build a good palace, and even the money to build the city was enough. But I don't want to be close to Xiapi There are so many treasures hidden, and these Xia Pi's money alone is enough to build Pengcheng.

With money and soldiers and horses, after being stationed in Xiapi for two or three days, Tao Ying suddenly ordered the conscription in Xiapi, and the conscription order was soon transmitted to all counties and counties in Xiapi.

After hearing that it was the victorious general Tao Ying who recruited troops, the people of Xiapi came to vote one after another, Tao Ying asked Zang Ba to select nearly 30,000 elite soldiers, and then ordered the money and food of Xiapi to be transported to Lu County.

Tao Ying of Xiapi City left Chen Gui behind, and let Chen Gui, the father of Chen Deng, lead Xia Pi Xiang, pacify the people, distribute the fields, and leave one-fifth of the grain and grass in Xiapi to be distributed to the people as grain and planting land.

Leaving Xiapi City, Tao Ying passed by the Futu Temple accompanied by the generals, the towering Nine Mirror Pagoda shimmered with a strange brilliance in the sun, Tao Ying knew that after the Rong Rong left, Xuzhou even went through the chaos, the survival of the common people here is a problem, and no one will chant the Buddha here, so he ordered the Futu Temple to be demolished, just to dismantle the Futu Temple to build his own palace.
