211 Questioning
In Iron Mountain City, after killing Gao Quan and Gao Jian, as well as Gao Yu and Gao Fei's people.
Gao Xin and Yang Yinuan were almost bloodless, and they recovered Qianshan City and Tieshan City.
Now Yang Yinuan has arranged for the people of Sangmiao Village to live in Qianshan City, and he followed Gao Xin to Tieshan City.
In fact, compared with Qianshan Ranch, the Gao family attaches more importance to this Iron Mountain City.
After all, there are iron mines, and there are many miners and iron-smelting craftsmen.
Iron is a very important strategic resource in this era.
As for the Thousand Mountains Ranch, although it is also very important, compared to Iron Mountain City, it is much worse in a strategic sense.
After all, there are countless cattle and sheep on the Handa grassland, as long as they recover the iron city, they can send people to catch cattle and sheep on the grassland.
It is also possible to build a large ranch in other places.
Iron Mountain City is different, if you give up this city.
That simply shook the foundation of the Gao family, after all, their ancestors started by selling iron tools in the first place.
And over the years, their family's investment in Iron Mountain City has also been much greater.
This Iron Mountain City is also stronger than Thousand Mountain City, and even compared to the Iron City.
That is, the population is smaller, but if you really want to say that the city defense is strong, Tieshan City really doesn't have to be worse than Tiecheng.
It is backed by the Thousand Mountains Mountains, and the city is also built in the middle of the mountain.
It has an advantage in the topography and there is also a water source in the valley.
If you stock up on enough food and defend the city, it will not be a problem to hold on for three or five years.
Fortunately, they intercepted Gao Jian halfway.
Otherwise, if Gao Jian was allowed to return to Iron Mountain City, it would be too difficult to take this city back.
It was also very easy to recover Iron Mountain City this time.
Gao Xin just let Gao Jian's personal soldiers, holding Gao Jian's head, run back and forth under the city wall.
Then he said some words to persuade him to surrender, and the defenders in the city tied up Gao Jian's cronies, opened the door and surrendered.
This also gave Yang Yinuan a glimpse of what it means to be a local hero!
These families have often been in business in the region for hundreds or even thousands of years.
There is an inexplicable prestige in the hearts of the local people, so when there is something wrong.
As long as the people of this family stand up, then those ordinary people in the local area will naturally look down on the wind.
After all, if someone with another surname is in charge, it is inevitable that no one will obey anyone.
If you don't do it, you have to hit the dog's brain again, maybe even for dozens or hundreds of years.
But if such a co-leader is elected, everyone's relationship will be much more harmonious.
Gao Xin was also very happy to take back Iron Mountain City, and Gao Peng, who had gradually recovered in the past few days, was even more excited.
Even on the day of the recovery of Iron Mountain City, a grand banquet was held to reward the three armies.
The old city lord appeared at the evening reception to toast, which also greatly boosted the morale of Gaoxin's side.
Gao Peng's appearance not only made Tieshan City, which was originally unstable, quickly settle people's minds.
Even those grassland heroes hired by Gaoxin have put away their little caution at this time.
You know, these guys didn't have that much respect for Gao Xin before.
can see the appearance of Gao Peng, which is like fixing the sea god needle, which plays a deterrent role.
This night, everyone drank a lot.
Anyway, they ransacked the Seven Star Fort, burned the Green Wave Village, and seized the Yellow Grass Beach, breaking three dock forts in a row.
It can be regarded as a great harvest, and there is plenty of food in Iron Mountain City, so everyone eats and drinks to their heart's content this night.
But at night, when the people were all asleep.
Yang Yinuan was invited to the castle where Gaoxin and the others lived, and it was still in the castle last time.
However, at this time, Gao Xin was sitting in this living room with his eyebrows locked, and when he saw Yang Yinuan coming in, this guy showed a smile.
"What? Senior brother, I don't think your mood is too high? ”
Yang Yinuan asked with a smile, and Gao Xin smiled bitterly.
"I'm having a headache about getting through the winter!"
It has been three days since they took back Thousand Mountain City and Iron Mountain City.
For the past three days, the snow has been falling non-stop, and it was not until this evening that the snow gradually stopped.
At this time, the northern border has completely entered winter, and after retaking Iron Mountain City, after counting some data, Gao Xin also feels the pressure doubled.
Along the way, he rescued 5,000 soldiers from the city, but these people had also killed nearly 1,000 in previous conflicts.
As for Gao Jian, Gao Quan, and Gao Yu, the soldiers led by Gao Fei, he also captured more than 5,000.
More than 5,000 people were killed and wounded in the clashes, and more than 4,000 were scattered.
Others, who were captured by the hunting teams he recruited, were taken as their 'personal trophies'.
And these hunting teams now have a total of more than 10,000 people, and they have recently followed Gao Xin all the way to burn and loot, and their strength is also expanding rapidly.
Now it's a bit noisy, which makes Gao Xin feel more stressed.
Especially now that he actually controls more than 3,000 people, as for the more than 5,000 soldiers he captured.
He hasn't returned to his heart yet, so he doesn't dare to rashly co-opt those people.
And now outside Iron Mountain City, there are more than 10,000 'savage' hunting teams stationed, how can you let Gao Xin sleep?
And these people are not people who like to follow the rules?
If he stays under him for a day, he will have to pay for the day, and he will have to pay for the food, drink, and Lazar of the family.
It made him feel very stressed!
So at this moment, he called Yang Yinuan to imagine him asking for advice on how to deal with such a situation!
And Yang Yinuan laughed.
"Brother Yang, you have also seen it, now I have such a big stall, although I have also seized a lot of grain from those dock forts before."
"But if you feed such a large number of people for the winter, it will definitely not be enough. What's more, there are more than 4,000 miners and more than 1,000 craftsmen in this mountain city! ”
"These people are our roots, huh? If they all starve to death, that's the worst-case scenario. ”
"But if you let these hunting parties go, that's not going to work."
"No one knows when that Gao Qiang will lead his troops to attack us, and these hunting teams, if they can't be used by me."
"It's very likely that it will be bought by Gao Qiang again, so ......"
It was precisely because the situation was so complicated that Gao Xin thought of asking Yang Yinuan to help find a way.
After getting along these days, Yang Yinuan has simply become a god in his heart.
There are almost no problems that he can't solve, and the reason why he was able to regain lost ground so easily this time.
defeated the Gao family foursome and took back Tieshan City, in which Yang Yinuan contributed eighty percent of the credit.
