Chapter 54: A Few Families Rejoice

So, it all takes money! We all need food and grass! You all need equipment!

However, fortunately, there is nothing more to fight now, and there is still a surplus of money, food, materials, and equipment in Jingzhou City. www.biquge.info Therefore, the support for Wancheng is 50 million gold coins, 3 million sets of equipment, half a year's grain and grass, etc., can still be drawn.

Xu Xuan's performance was sent to the imperial court, and the court was naturally overjoyed. After all, Wancheng's yellow scarves are also a very large share, it can be said that the scale is second only to Zhang Jiao and Bocai, and it is not far from Luoyang!

Xu Xuan was able to exterminate without the army of the imperial court, just by relying on the local army, of course this is a great joy!

Although Xu Xuan did not show his merits in the performance, everyone knows that Xu Xuan's first merit is inevitable.

At the same time, for Xu Xuan's request, about the serious destruction of Nanyang County by the Yellow Turban Army, the displacement of the people, the destruction of a large number of production, etc., the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong also waved a big pen and exempted from taxes for two years.

After all, you can't stick to the water! The people have been oppressed miserably, but they will rebel, and the Yellow Turban Army is a lesson from the past!

As for the issue of Xu Miaozuo's request to crown Li Tang as the Taishou of Nanyang, the general He Jin had already gotten the benefits of Li Tang, so Nanyang was lonely in the north of Jingzhou, the people were fierce, and strong people were needed to guard it.

Zhang Rang and others, who are always in the middle of the term, have always been at odds with He Jin and others, and they will try to stop anyone who agrees with He Jin and others.

However, Zhang Rang also got the benefits of Li Tang, so he was a little hesitant about who should be the Taishou.

Could it be that Li Tang secretly took refuge in He Jin? So this person can't have it! It's a two-faced character!

But think about it again, maybe it's not like this, this He Jin is a Wancheng person, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Wancheng is the first to bear it, and it has changed hands several times, the people in Wancheng have been ravaged enough, He Jin, as a Wancheng person, naturally hopes to have the ability to protect the safety of Wancheng.

If this is the case, Li Tang is still his own person, He Jin inadvertently arranged his own person to a high position, so as not to make a big tongue about himself, this is a good thing!

Therefore, in this matter, Zhang Rang symbolically protested, and then gave up!

As for Xu Xuan, he was really the first merit, and the members of the court discussed and decided to promote him to the rank of Zhongcheng in the imperial history.

Speaking of which, this position is much higher in rank than in terms of assassination, but in terms of power, it is a lot smaller. After all, Yu Shi Zhongcheng is an official who supervises hundreds of officials, and he is a second-in-command, which is less substantial than the previous feudal officials!

However, as compensation, he was prepared to seal Xu Xuan as the Pavilion Marquis.

However, this decision was opposed by one person, who was Zhang Zhong, the captain of Sili.

Speaking of this Zhang Zhong, in fact, he is not an outsider, it is the predecessor of Nanyang Taishou Li Tang's predecessor, Qin Jie's predecessor, and Chu Gong's predecessor.

As mentioned above, this person is the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dong, who was caught by Xu Xuan and prepared to be executed because of his misdeeds in Nanyang Taishou.

Empress Dowager Dong sent Zhang Rang and others to intercede, but Xu Xuan was unmoved and insisted on doing things according to the law.

This Empress Dowager Dong was furious, but she did not punish Xu Xuan, but just transferred her nephew to Beijing and became the captain of Sili, which is also a well-known position of real power.

said that the smell is similar, this Zhang Zhong arrived in Beijing, and he got mixed up with Zhang Rang and others and became a tyrant in Beijing.

Let's say, Zhang Zhong is a villain, and villains are generally retribution.

Therefore, as soon as Xu Xuan's performance arrived in Beijing, Zhang Zhong began to contact Zhang Rang and others, and framed Xu Xuan on the grounds that Wancheng was gained and lost. It is believed that Xu Xuan's improper handling led to the death of Nanyang Taishou Qin Jie.

And some heavyweights in the DPRK have selfish intentions, they originally hoped that Wang Rui would ascend to the throne, so they kept silent on this matter, and even secretly contributed to the trouble.

Because Zhang Zhong made a hindrance from it, Xu Xuan wanted to be a marquis, but it was estimated that it would not work, but the possibility of Xu Xuan leaving the real power position of Jingzhou Assassin was gone. And if you want Wang Rui to take the position, Xu Xuan must move his nest.

In this way, after several slanderous rumors, Xu Xuan, who obviously had great merits, was degraded to a commoner and dismissed from office to go home! What a pity!

And Wang Rui, because of the establishment of miraculous achievements, and in the imperial court, some people deliberately helped and arranged, Wang Rui replaced Xu Xuan and became the assassin of Jingzhou.

A few families are happy and a few are sad!

Anyway, Xu Xuan is crying, Li Tang and Wang Rui are very happy!

Needless to say, Wang Rui said that this Li Tang is the Nanyang Taishou canonized by the emperor of the Eight Classics, who commands Nanyang County and has jurisdiction over 37 counties.

You must know that Wang Rui is the assassin of Jingzhou, and he leads the nine counties of Jingxiang, and he only has 120 counties.

Li Tang actually accounts for more than one-third of Jingzhou!

With the news of the fall of Wancheng, it spread to Xihua City in Runan, and Bocai and Peng Tuo, who were entrenched in the city, were even more frightened.

Originally, the imperial army had already swept away the leaves in the autumn wind and captured the three cities and six villages of Bocai, and only the remaining two cities and four villages were still holding on.

Although Bocai lost several walled cities as barriers, he did not lose much of his troops, and due to the concentration of troops, the defense appeared to be more solid.

Huangfu Song and they didn't have a good way for a while, and they captured Xihua City in Bocai in one go.

During this period, the two sides also launched several tug-of-wars, which damaged each other, and the battle situation was stalemate for a while.

Of course, in the end, with the victory of Wancheng, the situation changed radically.

One is that after receiving the good news that Wancheng was captured, the imperial court thought that Huangfu Song and others were slow to act and ineffective in exterminating the Yellow Turbans, so they strictly ordered them to increase the frequency of attacks and exterminate the Yellow Turban Army in Runan within a time limit.

The reproach of the imperial court made the faces of Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian very dull.

However, marching and fighting a war also requires science, and it is not something that you can win if you want to work harder today.

The war cannot be delayed, but there is absolutely no urgency!

They are facing the cunning and abnormal Bocai and Peng Tuo, and if they are not careful, they may be able to seize the opportunity and beat their own army! It's not impossible that the whole army will be wiped out!

However, as the news of the fall of Wancheng spread among the Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban soldiers began to panic and their morale dropped greatly. This morale is closely related to the combat strength of the soldiers! As soon as the morale is low, the combat power of the soldiers will be greatly reduced!

At this time, coupled with the fact that Huangfu Song and others deliberately accelerated the pace of the attack, Bocai lost another city and six camps at once, and Bocai and they were only left with Xihua City, which was still struggling to hold on.

At this time, Li Tang had already detached himself, took out an army of 500,000 from the Qiankun bracelet, and put it in Wancheng to help defend Wancheng.

At this time, around Wancheng, there were not many Yellow Turban troops that could threaten Dao Li Tang.

The only thing that needs to be cared about is the player forces within Nanyang, and what Li Tang is most worried about is them. I was worried that when Li Tang left Nanyang, he would suddenly burst out and steal the city.

You must know that Wancheng can have food and materials supported by Xiangyang, which is a very huge wealth!

But don't worry too much.

The 500,000 elites released by Li Tang are all special troops.

The two armies face each other, even if there are 2 million Yellow Turban elites, they should not be able to defeat.

And if the player wants to capture Wancheng, which is defended by 500,000 elites, presumably even if 10 million players come, they should be, but they can't help Wancheng.

Of course, just in case, Li Tang drew soldiers from various cities and marched to Wancheng to garrison.

Those who are close to Wancheng are more drawn, and those far away from Wancheng are less drawn, and then the balance is gradually replenished. One

Generally speaking, each city draws 8-100,000, which basically does not affect the defense of the city.

At this moment, Li Tang has stabilized Nanyang County.

It can be said that in the entire Nanyang County, there is no force that can compete with Li Tang.

At this stage, the only unstable factor in Nanyang County is the player power within Nanyang County.

Because Li Tang is a player, he knows the player's energy best. Although, he is now the number one player force in Nanyang County and even Jingzhou. However, if you are a little careless, it will not be a matter of minutes to lose everything you have now.

After all, Li Tang has no foundation in reality, and if anyone finds Li Tang in reality, everything about him will immediately come to naught.

Since the player is an unstable factor, Li Tang naturally wants to attack the player forces in Nanyang County.

At this stage, there are three types of players: one is a casual player, the second is a gang player, and the third is a territorial player.

Of course, the first type of player can be transformed into the other two types of players at any time.

However, relatively speaking, players of the first nature are not very harmful to the jurisdiction, and at the same time, because they are engaged in production, they still contribute to the tax revenue and total wealth of the jurisdiction. Li Tang still welcomes this kind of person, especially casual players in life and occupation. Therefore, Li Tang naturally would not shoot at them.

The second type of player, they form gangs, and they have a fixed station, often gathering thousands or tens of thousands of people, and sometimes seriously endangering the people's morale and security in the city.

For such players, Li Tang is actually willing to maintain a tolerant attitude. After all, there are gangs at all times, even among the aborigines, and there are gangs, which is difficult to prohibit.

Moreover, players generally prefer to act in groups, especially in games.

Players form gangs and can make a difference in many things, especially in engaging in certain tasks, or killing some bosses, etc., they are generally in order to make money and level up, so to some extent, they are also engaged in production, but their taxes are difficult to collect.

However, they can consume a large amount of materials in the city, and at the same time, supply some materials in the city, which can be regarded as activating the city's economy, increasing the scale of tax revenue, and also contributing to the city.
