Lin Ran's first purpose in moving the capital was naturally to facilitate dealing with Yuan Shu in the future. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Yangzhou's original seat of governance Liyang City was located in Jiujiang County, in the north of Yangzhou, in the Huainan region, under Yuan Shu's troops. As long as Yuan Shu goes south, he will be able to attack Liyang City as soon as possible, and if Yuan Shu is allowed to occupy the Yangzhou Governor's Office, it will inevitably be extremely unfavorable to his own side, at least it will cause a certain morale blow to the NPC troops.

Therefore, Lin Ran moved the administrative office of Yangzhou to Yuzhang City as soon as possible to prevent Yuan Shu's advance.

There is a second reason, moving the administrative office of Yangzhou to the city under his own control, which can also facilitate his own management of the entire Yangzhou.

Moreover, objectively speaking, Yuzhang City is more suitable than Liyang City as the seat of Yangzhou in terms of economic status and geographical location, except for the Eastern Han Dynasty, many other dynasties have taken Nanchang City as the seat of Yangzhou.

However, after this decree was issued, some players in Liyang City in Jiujiang County were immediately very dissatisfied. As the seat of a state, Liyang City enjoys many privileges, and can also get some attributes, such as trade, popular bonuses, and most importantly, a certain amount of taxes can be levied on the whole state. Lin Ran wanted to move the capital, which naturally caused the dissatisfaction of some players in Liyang City, especially some NPCs.

Under the premeditated efforts of some well-intentioned people, a premeditated weapon fight occurred in Liyang City, and the envoys sent by the alliance to Liyang City who originally wanted to clean up some files and materials, property, and public property in the Assassin's Mansion were not only turned away, but also beaten up by these unknown people guarding the Assassin's Mansion.

It's just that these people still seem to have some scruples, and they didn't really kill them, they just beat them to a serious injury, and then threw them on the road in the city.

Such a vicious incident was transmitted to the alliance by the envoys in Liyang City for the first time.

After receiving the information, Lin Ran was furious, defined this matter as a very serious provocation, and decided to give those people in Liyang City who were hostile to the alliance a knock on the mountain and let them know who the real master of Yangzhou was now.

Under Lin Ran's order, the second fleet of the alliance's naval army stationed in Wujun City immediately went north, and within half a day, it entered Jiujiang County and came to Liyang City, and at the same time, with the second fleet, there were 100,000 elite player infantry troops and 20,000 elite NPC troops stationed in Wujun City, as well as NPC historical generals Gan Ning, Huang Shao, and Hu Zhen.

At this time, there were only more than 10,000 NPC troops stationed in Liyang City.

When the Second Fleet was heading towards Jiujiang County, the thousands of high-altitude warships immediately attracted the attention of countless fishing boats and small warships along the way.

When these surface ships in Jiujiang County saw the Second Fleet of the Alliance, their first reaction was that this was the fleet under the NPC princes. They really couldn't imagine that there were already player forces with such an elite and large fleet.

But in fact, these warships are only one-third of the alliance's naval forces.

When the defenders and Taishou in Liyang City found that the sails of the warships were suddenly covered outside the city, they were very shocked, this vast sea army, I don't know how many people, anyway, there are 10,000 people in the city, it seems impossible to deal with each other.

However, the Taishou of Jiujiang County still issued martial law as soon as possible, closed the city gates, and all the defenders in the city boarded the city wall, waiting for the battle, nervously watching the actions of the alliance navy.

The alliance sailors slowly stopped on the waterfront of Liyang City, the sergeants on the warship began to slowly go ashore, and more than 100,000 elite troops were assembled under the city, and they approached the gate of Liyang City under the leadership of Gan Ning.

"Where is the Taishou in the city?!" Gan Ning rode a white horse, with an extremely long white bird feather on his head, and a long sword in his hand.

Seeing this, the general guarding the city at the south gate stretched out his head and scolded downward: "Who are you who dare to use swords under my Liyang City?!" Isn't Your Excellency afraid of the crusade of my imperial army? ”

"Haha!" Gan Ning laughed loudly, his face turned pale, and he shouted: "You are just a mere city gate general, you are not worthy to talk to me, call your Taishou immediately, otherwise in half an hour, I will order the siege of the city!" ”

"You dare!" The general at the city gate shouted in surprise and anger, but as soon as he dared to blurt out, there was a chill on his neck. He was surprised and reached out to touch his neck, only then did he feel a warm feeling in his hands, and when he turned his head, he saw that his hands were covered with blood.

If the enemy general hadn't missed the arrow just now, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to stand here again.

However, it is also possible that the other party is merciful.......

"I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore, so I'll call you Taishou over immediately!" Gan Ning held the bow in his hand and said coldly.

"General, what shall we do?" A partial general beside the general of the city gate stepped forward and asked.

"Shhh.......hhh Call Lord Taishou over, the enemy generals are huge, and it can be said that it will be easy to capture the city in our hands. However, the other party has not made any moves yet, and it seems that there must be other reasons for this, and maybe there is a turning point in this, which can make them give up the siege. ”

Soon, there was confusion at the south gate, and a fat official came to the city.

It's just that this official obviously heard about the deeds of Gan Ning's arrow hitting the neck of the general defending the city just now, and now when he came to the city, he was scared to death, and hid tightly behind a few ironclad guards, just leaking a little bit of his head, and shouted down: "I am the Liyang City Taishou Lu Liu, what are your intentions when you raise troops to come to my Liyang City?" ”

"You don't know me?" Gan Ning asked rhetorically.

Liyang Taishou Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "I haven't seen you before, how can I know you?" ”

Gan Ning nodded slightly and said, "That's right." However, you should always know my Lord Thorn Shi in Yangzhou. ”

Gan Ning said, pulling out a token from his waist.

The token is made of fine craftsmanship and exquisite details, the card is engraved with a black tiger shape, and the edges are decorated with silver silver and gold wire, and even some people who know a little about wood can see that the wooden card used in this token, although it looks inconspicuous on the surface, is made of rosewood, which is hard, extremely precious, and worth far more than gold.

And on the front of this token, there are several big characters engraved - Yangzhou Thorn Shi Ling!
