With the opening of the south gate, the entire foothill city was in a mess, obviously the foothill city did not expect that the reason for the final defeat came from the inside, and at this time Liu Sanyi was already ready, and as soon as the south gate was opened, the army hidden in the barracks poured out, the first was the cavalry of more than 1,400 people, just about ten minutes away, it had already entered the gate, the defenders of the foothill city could not even defend, 1,400 people were equipped with more than 4,200 guns, an average of three guns per person, Three consecutive volleys of shots, the resistance of the entire South City Gate was instantly disintegrated, and then tens of thousands of troops rushed into the city, and immediately began to attack the various Skywalker families, town halls and other buildings, the war began at two o'clock in the morning, and by five o'clock in the morning, the resistance that had all captured the foothills of the city at various critical junctures did not even have time to be organized, and was quickly disintegrated by the troops of Black Iron City.

The whole city waited until seven o'clock, has been completely controlled by Liu Sanyi, this night is undoubtedly tormenting for the people of the foothills of the city, the war is often accompanied by chaos, although Liu Sanyi repeatedly restrains the army, but he can not completely control all the troops, especially the army of the city, the two cities were originally old enemies, and now into the other party's city, it is natural to burn and loot, all of them, in addition, there is also the foothills of the city itself is also making chaos, seeing Liu Sanyi's troops enter the city, After the war ended, Liu Sanyi immediately asked the magistrate to arrest all these people, divide them by the death penalty, and execute them in front of the people of the city, in order to restore the image of Liu Sanyi's army in the foothills of the city, and return all the property, these people don't have much money at all, and Liu Sanyi doesn't care, why use this money to tarnish his reputation.

In addition to the thirteen Skywalkers who took the lead in signing the surrender peace letter in Black Iron City, among the remaining thirty-two Skywalkers, more than 20 people died directly in the battle, and the remaining ten people survived, but they were all arrested on charges of war and locked in the prison built by Black Iron City, as for their property, Liu Sanyi naturally accepted it with a smile.

In addition, there are some old families, they had Skywalker before, and then because of the broken inheritance, so it declined, but because of the long time, the accumulated wealth is also quite amazing, the wealth of these families together, is more than the equivalent of 40 million yuan of property in the Black Iron City, according to the average 30 yuan per citizen of a city in the Black Iron City, this is quite a lot of finance.

Liu Sanyi took out two million of this money and gave it directly to the soldiers who participated in the war this time, each of them was given one hundred and forty yuan as a reward, those who died on the battlefield and those who were injured because of the battle, as well as those who performed well in the battle, naturally there were more rewards, and finally the soldiers were rewarded with more than five million yuan of finance, and the remaining three million were given to Bicheng, this time they helped a lot, although they were reluctant to help when they helped, but since the other party did not make a stumbling block in the battle, then the benefits should be given, Liu Sanyi naturally did not forget that the treatment of soldiers was the same as that of Black Iron City, and the rewards of Skywalker were slightly less.

At the same time, another four million yuan was given to the Skywalkers who promised to surrender in the foothills of the city this time, which is undoubtedly a huge reward, and these people who surrendered to the city are almost all the people with relatively low status in the foothills, with relatively shallow qualifications, and the wealth accumulated in the city is also quite small, so this money will directly save them more than ten years of precipitation, and they will naturally be more loyal to the Black Iron City.

As for the remaining 28 million, it is mainly gold, silver, pearls, jade, agate and other luxury goods, Liu Sanyi will transport them all to the Black Iron City, and at the same time, the entire Picheng and Foothill City more than 70,000 urban population and the libraries of these two cities will all be transported to the Black Iron City, as for the 70,000 people will go directly to the Huajin City, where they will study new scientific research.

Liu Sanyi is very clear that war is a huge threat, Huajin City is the farthest city opened up by Black Iron City in its own sphere of influence, relatively safe, and it is relatively safe to put the test site and future industrial base there, in addition, Picheng and Foothill City will continue to maintain the independence of the two cities, subject to the Black Iron City, and the Black Iron City will also send a governor to directly govern it, and at the same time collect taxes locally, but because Liu Sanyi promised them that they would not collect agricultural taxes for two years, In addition, the industrial population in the city was almost completely transported by Liu Sanyi, so it was obviously impossible for these two cities to pay taxes within two years, but Liu Sanyi could obviously get other things here, one is minerals, there is a huge sulfur mine around the city, which can make soap, explosives, etc., which is a very good material, and around the foothill city there are very delicate stones, and there is also a kind of emerald, the color is very bright and beautiful, this is undoubtedly a very beautiful gem, For the wealthy people of Black Iron City, there is undoubtedly a huge attraction.

Of course, the most important thing is that the population of these two cities is 800,000, which is already more than the population of Black Iron City, after all, Black Iron City itself is only 750,000, in the face of such a huge population, it is naturally a huge threat, after all, the ruled population is almost the same as the ruling population, which is extremely dangerous for Black Iron City, so this is a problem that must be dealt with.

In this regard, Liu Sanyi didn't particularly understand, so he asked Shu Han, Shu Han combined the methods of his previous life, and affirmed to Liu Sanyi that if you want these people to quickly integrate into the social order of Black Iron City, it is very simple, let the original ruler stay away from them, and then let them live a better life, and the other is fairness, don't treat the people of these two cities differently, treat them in the way of Black Iron City, only in this way, the other party will quickly integrate into the city, don't be too jealous of them, and always be afraid that they will rebel, which is something that makes no sense.

For Shu Han's method, Liu Sanyi was very hesitant at first, after all, this is enough to have a population comparable to Black Iron City, in Liu Sanyi's opinion, the best way is to strictly defend and include them in his own ruling system through high-pressure rule, which is also the choice made by most of the victors, so that they can get the most reward from the occupied area, and at the same time, they don't have to worry about whether they will rebel, because you assume that they will rebel. Soaring Chinese

And Shu Han's method is very risky, if one does not do it well, in the end, not only will the people of the two cities be offended, but also the people of Black Iron City will be offended, after all, they are the victors, why can't they enjoy the fruits of victory? But the advantage is that it is undoubtedly easier to integrate into the order of the Black Iron City in this way, and in the end, Liu Sanyi balanced the two evils and tended to be the lesser, and chose the latter, treating the people of Picheng and Foothill City and the people of the Black Iron City equally and fairly.

As for why he did this, it was not that he was merciful, nor that Shu Han said the truth, in his opinion, it was a little too idealistic, and the reason why he did this was because he wanted to recruit an army in the local area as soon as possible, and stabilize the foothills and the castles at the same time, because at this moment he had to leave the foothills and go to the front line of Asakusa Castle with the army.

Shu Han has now resisted in Asakusa City for up to a week, the enemy's attack is very rapid, according to Shu Han's judgment, it is obviously not only to encircle Wei to save Zhao, but to take advantage of the opportunity of Liu Sanyi to lead the main force to attack other places now, take advantage of the situation to take down this mountain pass, if this mountain pass is taken, then Asakusa City will be very dangerous, from the front line to Asakusa City is only about 70 kilometers away, the opposing cavalry can arrive in one day, if Asakusa falls, then the Black Iron City will be in danger, This could not allow Liu Sanyi not to pay attention, so he had to immediately lead the troops to Asakusa City at this moment.

At this time, it is obviously not enough to recruit troops from Black Iron City, he must recruit troops directly here, be responsible for carrying luggage and other items, and at the same time make the local people feel at ease, only in this way, he can leave with peace of mind, and there is no need to leave a large number of troops here, to ensure that the situation does not get out of control, this is a very difficult thing, but he has to do it.

Therefore, Liu Sanyi was very tough on the upper echelons of Foothill City and Picheng, requiring them to go to the front line of Asakusa City with him, and on the other hand, he was very tolerant of the local people, in this way, the two cities were finally leveled quickly, Liu Sanyi directly recruited 5,000 people from the local area as logistics troops, mainly responsible for transportation, and at the same time carried out training to ensure that they could slowly form combat capabilities in the subsequent operations, and on the other hand, he allocated 3,000 people from his own troops to be stationed in the two cities of Picheng and Foothill City. In order to ensure the stability of the place, he left with his own army.

This battle was undoubtedly a big victory for Liu Sanyi, taking two cities, 800,000 people including 20,000 square kilometers of land, and his own losses were only seven or eight hundred soldiers and a few Skywalkers, a large number of casualties were borne by Picheng, this time the army brought out, almost no more than 10% of the loss, 10,000 people were able to return, as for the remaining 1,000 people were left in Picheng and Foothill City to recuperate, this 10,000 people plus 1,400 people in Picheng's army, plus 5,000 people in the reserve logistics force, A total of 16,000 people, Liu Sanyi quickly whipped up his horse and immediately dared to Asakusa Castle, followed by a thousand cavalry to the front line overnight, while the rest of the people marched in a hurry and arrived at the front line as quickly as possible.

At this time, Shu Han was undoubtedly miserable on the front line, he did not expect the other party's attack to be so fierce, in just a week, many pillboxes on the front line were occupied by the other side, Shu Han could only lead the troops to shrink to the second line of defense, and gave up all the dozen pillboxes in front to preserve his own vitality, and the other point was to concentrate his main forces and start a sneak attack.

On the Great Plains outside, the Holy Alliance has an advantage, even if Shu Han wants to sneak attack, it is very difficult, after all, the Great Plains have an unobstructed view, and the Holy Alliance is very vigilant, obviously will not suffer a second loss, so Shu Han can't find a chance at all, seeing this, Shu Han retreated his army and gave these mountains to the people of the Holy Alliance, so that the terrain has been changed, for Shu Han, such a terrain is obviously more beneficial to his side, although the opposite side has got some high ground, but those pillboxes have been blown up, There are no fortifications to defend at all, and the other point is that the Holy Alliance is not particularly familiar with the terrain of this generation, and the troops of Asakusa City have been here for two years, and they are already very familiar with this piece of land, and Shu Han's side naturally has an advantage in the terrain, and at this time in the mountains and forests, the transportation of cannons is one step slower than that of people, and Shu Han's side has already transferred the cannons to the suitable point, and in terms of weapons, Shu Han is also a little ahead, Therefore, he straightforwardly transferred 2,000 troops from the reserve of 2,000 troops plus garrison troops, and launched an attack on a main force of the enemy with 4,000 people, in a dark night, although the enemy was also prepared, but because he was not familiar with the terrain at all, he could not be fully prepared, and one of Shu Han's troops drilled directly behind the opponent through the cave, and launched an attack in a place where it was impossible for the other party to build fortifications, and the war lasted only two hours. The opponent's camp collapsed, but the opponent's Skywalker was numerous, so he eventually led some people to escape, but even so, this battle allowed Shu Han to capture more than 2,000 people, and at the same time, more than 2,000 prisoners, which was a great victory.

But after this battle, it is obviously very difficult for Shu Han to win a big battle, on the one hand, the artillery is delivered, and on the other hand, the Holy Alliance has used a day to build fortifications on various commanding heights, and at this time, if you want to sneak attack, the probability of success begins to decrease significantly, and Shu Han will no longer try, and the initiative will fall on the Holy Alliance.

Compared with the first layer of defensive bunkers, the buildings on the second floor are obviously not so solid, after all, these bunkers were built by Shu Han's urgent order, and industrial buildings cannot be so strong, so Shu Han's side is also very passive, he almost wrote two letters a day to tell about the situation on the front line, asking Liu Sanyi to end the battle as soon as possible and hurry back to help, and when the war lasts until the tenth day, the Holy Alliance plans to launch a general attack, which makes all the reserves in Shu Han's hands run out, and all the troops are stuffed into the front line, This is an extremely dangerous signal for Shu Han, which means that if there is any accident, he will not be able to solve this accident immediately, at this time, Shu Han can only directly recruit another 2,000 people from Asakusa City temporarily regardless of the autumn harvest season, focusing on agricultural harvest and so on, this time the recruitment, down to the age of eighteen to forty-nine, almost all the men in the entire Asakusa City have been gathered, let them pick up guns and wait for orders at any time.
