Chapter 32 Unification of Suizhou

"Kill!"

Yuwen Chengdu took the lead, and the cavalry battalion followed, charging with him.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the two cavalry teams collided.

The war maniac soon found that the situation was turning to one side.

The elite cavalry under his command couldn't reach the cavalry under Yuwen Chengdu at all, and there was a one-sided slaughter scene on the battlefield.

"Why...... Why is this happening! ”

"Lord, the enemy's cavalry is too strong and well-equipped, the brothers can't stop it, surrender!"

The battle maniac sighed, looking at the cavalry under his command, the more he fought, the less he fought, the pride and ambition in his heart seemed to be extinguished all at once.

He closed his eyes, then opened them again, only to see him wipe the knife from his hand.

"Lin Yuan's children's ......"

The war maniac roared, and the war knife swiped against his neck, killing him on the spot, and his body turned into a ray of light and disappeared.

"He really deserves to be called a hero!"

Seeing this scene, Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

If he hadn't relied on Suizhou City's sophisticated equipment, I'm afraid he might not have been this person's opponent.

As soon as the war maniac died, his generals gave up resistance and surrendered on their own initiative.

The 20,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry of Aoshi Town fought to the end, leaving only 12,000 people, and 11,000 people were killed in battle, most of whom died from arrows.

Lin Yuan ordered all the bodies to be buried.

At the same time, he led 11,000 soldiers to take Aoshi Town without blood.

The capture of Aoshi Town also means that the entire northern district of Suizhou will be included in his territory.

In the next three days, Lin Yuan sat in Aoshi Town, and ordered Yuwen Chengdu to lead the cavalry battalion, plough the court and sweep the holes, and directly uproot the territory that was still in the corner of the northern district.

At the same time, on the second day after Aoshi Town was taken, he ordered Yu Ban to make a decisive attack and attack Beishan Town in the Western District for thousands of miles.

"It's over, it's all over!"

Beishan Mo, outside Wushan Town, was depressed on the spot after receiving the news that the 'war madness' was killed in battle and Aoshi Town was captured.

In the eastern area of Suizhou, after the Jingchu warriors were attacked by Zhuge Liang, they led the army back to help, but they were ambushed in the middle of the road, and the 30,000 army was lost, and he only led 200 remnants to escape and went to the direction of Ezhou.

Zhuge Liang took the opportunity to occupy Yong'an Town.

Within three days, the remnants of the Eastern Side were swept away.

At this point, the Eastern District has also completely become Lin Yuan's territory.

Now, everyone's eyes are focused on Beishan Town and Beishan Mo.

Without any accidents, Beishan Town resisted stubbornly for two days before being completely flattened by the Longxiang battalion led by Yu Ban.

Outside Wushan Town, Beishan Mo chose to surrender.

The rest of the lords of the Western District have surrendered one after another.

The whole of Suizhou has achieved great unification.

It is also the first county-level territory in the entire Chinese region.

Everyone knows that the first hegemon is quietly being born.

Those who were originally not optimistic about Lin Yuan on the Internet were completely slapped in the face this time and were silent, but there were still some people who jumped out and jumped up, thinking that Zhuge Liang and others were too strong to achieve reunification, and it was by no means Lin Yuan's credit.

And when some of the details of the battle were posted online, the men were slapped in the face again.

Build a city overnight, lure the enemy deep, and catch turtles in the urn.

One ring after another, it makes people think about it.

No one dared to say that Lin Yuan was just lucky.

Even celebrities such as the 'Lu Family' have said on the Internet that if they were to command this battle, I am afraid they would not be able to achieve such a good effect.

After Lin Yuan stabilized the hearts of the people in the North District, he returned to Suizhou City.

The first thing he did when he returned to Suizhou City was that he began to formulate the next development strategy.

Now that Suizhou is unified, there is no longer a need to clear the wall, and the Tibetans are in one city.

Suizhou belongs to the Yangtze River water system, fertile fields for thousands of miles, as long as it is well developed, it is also a 'country of abundance'.

Therefore, Lin Yuan decided to divide the people of each town into pieces.

In the beginning, the lords of Suizhou fought with each other, and all the people were gathered in one village or town, but now, with the unification of Suizhou, these people should be sent to small villages to engage in agricultural activities.

Only by forming three levels of villages, towns, and county towns can an effective ruling system be formed.

The first thing Lin Yuan had to do was to divide the people into pieces and register them.

The second thing is to return the land to the people.

All the fields in the territory were returned to the peasants, so that the people could be self-sufficient, and Lin Yuan could also extract taxes from them.

However, to do this, a large number of civil servants will be needed.

There are also many civil officials who surrendered to Lin Yuan, but unfortunately most of them are bronze-level, that is, Xiucai-level, and it is okay to let him preside over a village, but if you want him to preside over a town, it seems that he is not capable.

Lin Yuan's plan was to set up five counties in each district within a radius of 100 miles, and then divide five towns under the county, and one town would be responsible for fifteen villages.

This division can drive the three-level economy of villages, towns and counties, and maximize the prosperity of villages, towns and counties.

The address of the county seat was selected for promotion in those former large towns.

For example, Wushan Town, after being promoted to the county seat, it was called Wushan County.

This is calculated, a county town needs 81 civil officials, and the entire Suizhou civil officials need at least 2,000 people.

Ordinary talents are still easy to find, but there are far fewer people who are jinshi.

Of course, you can only take your time.

After the civil affairs, the second major event is the martial affairs.

There were almost 300 lords who surrendered to Lin Yuan, and before these lords surrendered, they had an average of 1,000 troops per person, which was an army of 300,000.

Such a huge number of soldiers will consume 300,000 units of grain a month, which is equivalent to 150,000 taels of silver, which is not even the soldier's salary, and Lin Yuan can't afford to support it.

Moreover, the vast majority of these surrendered troops are ordinary first-order militiamen, who do not have any combat effectiveness at all.

Therefore, Lin Yuan decided to disarm directly.

Among the 300,000 soldiers, he selected 10,000 third-order soldiers, 50,000 second-order soldiers, and the rest of the first-order soldiers, all of whom were released to the farmland.

The selected third-order soldiers are used to supplement the loss of the Longxiang Battalion and the Huben Battalion, and the remaining is converted into one battalion to serve as the fifth battalion of the Huben Battalion.

The Tiger Ben Battalion originally lacked a battalion, but now it is full.

As for the 50,000 second-order soldiers, 17,000 were left to fill the vacancy of the Suizhou Xiang Army, and the remaining 33,000 were dispersed into 25 small units and sent to the county town below to become the city guard.

The duty of the city guard is to defend the local county and patrol against the robbers and robbers who have refreshed in the county.

This city guard army also needs a large number of generals.

Lin Yuan selected a group of loyal generals from the surrendered generals and put them into the city guards, if these people performed well in the city guards, then he could also promote them to the Longxiang and Tiger Ben battalions.

In this way, it took half a month before these things were finalized.

At the end of November, the agreement with Xiaosheng Fan Li had already been exceeded, but fortunately, the Fan family was very patient and was still waiting in Xiangyang City.
