For happiness, fighting landlords is really an interesting thing, not only can deter the ill-intentioned young people under the rule, but also can generate revenue for the finance, it is really a double win, especially now in order to settle 300,000 people from Jiqi and two states, the cost can be a sea of money.

Ding Hao and others conspired to rebel, naturally not only their ten major families, but also many other small and medium-sized families, but this defeat gave them a good excuse to rectify them, and it was naturally necessary to confiscate the family property, and the culprit would inevitably go to the guillotine.

However, for those family officials who participated in the rebellion, Xing did not punish the crime in the name of the governor, but the two governors of the two provinces, Cui Jishu and Zhang Diao, conducted a public trial under the supervision and cooperation of Jinyiwei with the "Provisional Covenant", emphasizing fairness and justice, and the most important thing is to let the law be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, not just on paper.

You know, although the prestige of happiness in Shandong and Jiangsu provinces is unmatched, but he is not a god, and he can't ask everything in detail, therefore, under the rule of the officials who are clear on the surface, there are still dark flies and dogs.

After all, right and wrong, good and evil, black and white, it is impossible to distinguish clearly, especially the idea of the official standard has long been integrated into the blood of the people in the land of China, and the ignorant people have an instinctive fear of the officials and magnates, and they can't have a thorough understanding of the law.

After more than half a month of investigation, coupled with the intelligence collected by the beggar gang and the night assassins, nearly 100 families participated in the rebellion this time, and Happy also took the opportunity to tie up some perverse families and try them together.

Slow to say that the family is already hiding dirt and dirt, there are a lot of evil things, happy as the supreme commander, really want to frame up, it is not easy to deal with some people, especially happy to enter Jiangsu when he once said, regardless of the past, in the future will be dealt with according to law, and now he is standing firm on his heels in Jiangsu Province, divided and disintegrated, and wiped out all the opposition in a flash.

The tree fell and scattered, the wall fell and everyone pushed it, Ding Hao and other families were happily investigated to the end, but all related people will not be tolerated, and other unrelated people are naturally in danger for everyone, and it is already a blessing not to fall into the well, where do you dare to intercede,

The reason why the family gate valve is so angry and powerful is not that there is a lot of money and grain in the government treasury, there are people in the court, and the relationship network is intertwined, and now they are happy to confiscate their family wealth, dismiss their officials, and uproot all opposition forces with a thunderous force.

Maybe in the past, Xingxing had to take into account the stability of the rule, but two years after the establishment of Xinghua Academy, and the establishment of primary schools in various counties, Xingxing's ideology and culture have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

On 21 November, the No. 1 Prison of Shandong Province was set up in the northern suburbs of Xinghua City to manage the prisoners who had violated the law and been sentenced under its rule.

For a person who is accustomed to wealth, a life of nothing is a real torment and punishment, and it can also allow them to exert their last light and heat, and happily call it waste utilization.

On the first day of December, Dugu Yongye's army was late, and the soldiers were in Xinghua City, Shandong in December was already very cold, although it was not as cold as the northern country dripping into ice, but the chill in the humid air seemed to be able to drill into people's bones.

From the time he was happy to occupy Xinghua City, he knew that sooner or later there would be a big war, this war naturally did not include the war initiated by Gao Xuan and Gao Anaqiu, the two straw bales who were not successful enough to defeat and more than enough to lose were never put in their eyes, and the generals who were really worthy of joy's attention, in addition to Lao Tzu Sui Wang Gao Changgong and Wang Lin, it was Dugu Yongye and Fu Fu in front of him,

Although he was happy to want to lead the army into Yecheng and pull Gao Wei off the throne, he also knew that the time was not ripe now, and now the Northern Qi was surrounded by strong enemies, once a large-scale civil strife broke out, it was to give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, which was really worth the loss, yes, the purpose of happiness was very clear, that is, to stick to it, as long as Xinghua City was not lost, so that Dugu Yongye could not go east is the biggest victory,

As for the south, Gao Changgong has long been disappointed in Gao Wei, and he is angry, and naturally he disobeys the holy decree, Gao Wei wants to punish him, although let the horse come over, see if anyone in the Northern Qi is brave enough to crusade against him, with the barrier of Shandong and Jiangsu, Huaizhou is far away from the emperor of the sky, and it is very safe.

Therefore, only Dugu Yongye's 50,000 army needs a headache, but from the heart, Xingxing does not want to fight to the death with Dugu Yongye, and will fight against the elite soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, so Xingxing does not want to fight against Dugu Yongye head-on, and fight hard in the wilderness.

Don't look at the fact that there are only two provinces in Xingxing, but he is not afraid of fighting a war of attrition, not to mention that Xingxing has hoarded countless materials in the past two years, even from the surrounding states and counties, there are countless money and grain pouring in every day, Gao Wei is repeatedly banned,

Think about it, exquisite wooden furniture, convenient soap matches, expensive mirrors and fine wines, cheap and comfortable, complicated forms of clothing, low prices, high-quality books and paper, etc., which is not a sought-after goods, not to mention that the people love these things very much, the businessmen and gentry value the rolling wealth behind it,

Drag, happy to consume, but lonely Yongye is not necessarily,

When Dugu Yongye called for battle under the city of Xinghua City, Xing Xing just showed his face, and ordered Lu Zhishen to strictly guard against it, and then went down to the city and returned to the governor's palace.

Don't look at the city of Xinghua City is not as majestic and tall as Yecheng Luoyang, but it is not easy for Dugu Yongye to take it down with an army of 50,000, not to mention the large bed crossbows and catapults developed by Xinghua and Lu Ping, even the improved gunpowder is definitely enough for Dugu Yongye to drink a pot,

The advent of the steam engine and the construction of the steel mill not only made the happy army armed to the teeth, but also made the industry have made great progress, although he could not produce sophisticated firearms early, but the primary cannon was no longer a problem, especially the shells were filled with excellent formula gunpowder, and the power of the artillery could be imagined.

This is the strategic policy issued by the happy three, let Dugu Yongye do his best, insulting and shouting, but the Shandong righteous army is unmoved, and the city is full of traffic, lively and extraordinary, there is no sense of tension and depression, happy to easily defeat the enemy army several times, has already made the people in the city establish enough confidence,

On the fourth day of December, Dugu Yongye ordered the siege of the city, and a thousand sword and shield men lined up in a dense formation, covering the ladders, and the siege equipment such as the city vehicles rushed to the city, and then two thousand crossbowmen were responsible for covering, and at the same time, a hundred catapults were also lined up in front of the formation, ready to throw boulders at the city.

If the command of Dugu Yongye is determined, the soldiers under his command are also in order, and the morale is full of sky, but the happy Dugu Yongye is full of losses, and the range of the happy catapult is far greater than that of Dugu Yongye, and it is in the city, it is that the catapult of Dugu Yongye has not yet been powerful, and a stone rain above the city will come from the sky, not only destroying most of Dugu Yongye's catapult, but also killing and injuring many soldiers.

Look at the black, baby-thick crossbow arrows on the head of the city, flying out in the creaking sound of the noose, and fiercely burrowing into the dense sword and shield hand camp, in an instant, the shield shattered and died, the screams came and went, connected into one, the crossbow arrows were full of strength, almost every crossbow arrow had to penetrate six or seven people to stop castration,

After the bed crossbow is the archers at the head of the city, with the advantage of geography, advanced equipment, their range is extremely amazing, after the sound of "whoosh", the crossbowmen sent by Dugu Yongye fell down a large piece, the red blood in the vast land depicted a poignant flowers, shocking,

But a quarter of an hour of effort, Dugu Yongye's first round of offensive was resolved, a thousand sword and shield hands all lay down, the archers were also heavily wounded, as a last resort, Dugu Yongye could only Mingjin to withdraw his troops, looking at the devastated land, listening to the wailing and screaming of his subordinates, Dugu Yongye's face became more and more gloomy, I had long heard that Gao Xin was not good at getting along, and now I saw that it was really the case, the catapult, bed crossbow, bow and arrow, the suppression effect of Dugu Yongye was too obvious,

The ratio of offensive and defensive losses in siege warfare is generally three to one, but in the happy here, this ratio is afraid to expand a lot, there is no way, who called him rich in resources, and the lethality of weapons is too great,

Dugu Yongye frowned, his heart was very heavy, through the short battle and these days' observations, he had found that the Shandong Righteous Army was disciplined, responded quickly, and was not afraid of death, and was definitely comparable to the elite of his own soldiers.

In order to prevent the invasion of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, this time to the east, Dugu Yongye only led 50,000 elites, but in terms of the current situation, the hope of storming and capturing Xinghua City is slim, for a while, Dugu Yongye also had no strategy, and his corporal was beaten a little stuffy by the Shandong Righteous Army, so he ordered the army to return to the camp to rest and recuperate, and to think in the long run.

For three consecutive days, Dugu Yongye launched no less than ten attacks, but they all ended in failure, whether he was a virtual and real conversion, fast and slow, or a sneak attack in the middle of the night, happy is to deal with it freely, steady as Mount Tai,

Gao Xuan and Gao Anaqiu two lieutenants, almost all the young and strong people in the surrounding states and counties of Shandong Province, Dugu Yongye even if he wanted to recruit but did not have many manpower, and the people of Jiqi and the two states were happily relocated clean, not only no people, but also no food, as a last resort, Dugu Yongye could only set up the supply site in Yanzhou, which was directly west of Qingzhou in Zengnan, and sent his henchmen to guard it.

On December 8, Yanzhou suddenly missed, Dugu Yongye's supply line was not cut off, and in the face of the whole army's lack of food and no backup, Dugu Yongye had to issue an order to withdraw even if he was good at dancing with long sleeves, and retreated to Qizhou.

Although Dugu Yongye strengthened the defense of Yanzhou, but he could not prevent the city from being attacked from inside and outside, the essence of the beggar gang is not like a gang, what they do is not chivalrous and righteous, but espionage work, when Xiao Ling, the first killer, personally stabbed the knife, seriously injured the commander of the Yanzhou garrison, and killed the Yanzhou assassin history, under the instigation of the beggar gang, the people who had long been oppressed by the powerful rose up one after another.

Just when the Yanzhou garrison was in a hurry to deal with the turmoil in the city, 10,000 iron cavalry suddenly arrived like heavenly soldiers, and with the cooperation of the city's internal response, they quickly defeated the garrison and took Yanzhou in their hands.

Dugu Yongye temporarily retired from the army, and before he had time to celebrate, Zhang Shunzhi suddenly arrived, and brought a piece of news that made him angry: Gao Changgong, the king of Sui, was assassinated while inspecting Western Chu Prefecture and was seriously wounded, and the situation was not optimistic.
