Chapter 662: Returning to the Division
"Heads of the family, it's been a long time." In the big tent, Wu Yan sat on the main seat, smiling and arching his hand at the four people in the tent.
Outside the tent, the sound of killing has not stopped, and the dreadnought army has entered the city and is clearing the stubborn enemy in the city.
It is difficult to attack the city, but it is even more difficult to clear out the remnants of the enemy after the battle. Especially in a big city like Takagaki Castle, the Heita family has been in business for many years, and there are many people in the city who are willing to live and die with the family.
The casualties of the dreadnoughts also increased rapidly at this time, so that the generals had to enter the city in person to clear it, but the outside of the city was much quieter.
In the big tent, the four heads of the family, Mo Zhitai, An Siwei, Baili Qing, and Qi Zai, glanced at each other, and each got up to give Wu Yan a salute.
Wu Gan's hand pressed down, looking at the four people in the tent, and suddenly there was a feeling of watching the flowers bloom and the branches in the twilight.
Once upon a time, I didn't say that in the face of these people, I had to be cautious when I saw the pacification of others.
Now, these people sit quietly in their tents like quails, carefully speculating on their thoughts.
"Over the years, the heads of the family have taken care of my dreadnought army, and Wu Gen is inexplicably grateful." Wu Qian ordered someone to serve tea to several family owners, and gestured to a few people.
"Everyone is already acquaintances, and I invite you to come here today to discuss how to deal with the area of Zuoheng Road near Hengmen Port."
"I beg the Governor to command." Mo Zhitai was the first to stand up, and his demeanor was very respectful. His youngest son has been sent to the Dreadnought, and he is a proton-like existence, but he doesn't want Wu Gan to make other arrangements.
Glancing at the four family heads, Wu Yan smiled slightly and gestured at Chu Xi. Chu Xi got up and stood up, came to a map in the tent, bowed to several family heads who were neither humble nor arrogant, and pointed to the map and talked eloquently.
According to the demarcation of Zuoheng Road discussed by Wu Gen and the Hua family, most of these four families are in the territory of the Dreadnought Army, of which the Qi family and the Baili family all fell into it, and the Mo Zhi family and An Sijia were partially assigned to the Dreadnought Army.
Wu Gen was ready to refer to the practice of Ji Guo, and the Qi family and the Baili family in his own territory must be dismissed and handed over to the control of the dreadnought.
As for each family, they can keep the main city, serve as a prefectural commander, and obey the orders of the dreadnought. As for the Mo Zhi family and the An Si family, because the main city is outside, Wu Gen is ready to seize part of their territory, as for whether to keep the people in the clan, the Hua family can decide by themselves, but the number of people to be retained shall not exceed 500, otherwise the Dreadnought Army is willing to help them reduce the number of people.
After listening to Chu Xi's plan, the four heads of the family present were all pale and looked at each other. The eyes flickered, looking complex and subtle.
Wu Yan didn't make a sound, picked up the teacup and gently blew away a few pieces of tea leaves floating on the water, sipped it with a smile, and savored the sweetness of the tea, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.
"Governor Wu, this matter is very important, can you ...... It would be good if I could wait and consult with my people before replying. In the unspeakable depression, Baili Qing finally couldn't help it, and got up and looked at Wu Yan with a panicked face.
"Okay, well, this kind of thing really needs to be discussed with the clansmen." Wu Gen's face was warm, his voice was clear, and he smiled shyly like a boy next door,
"That's good, I think everyone should bring the letter falcon, three days, and in three days, I'll invite you to come here again. In the past three days, you are willing to stay in the army, and I will protect you in the army. Of course, if you feel that you are not used to eating and lodging, you can find another place to live, rest assured, our army will never stop you. Having a chance to breathe, the four heads of the family were all relieved.
Bai Liqing's face was embarrassed, and he wanted to delay some more time, but he saw that Wu Yan had closed his eyes and was silent, so he had to walk out of the big tent with a gloomy expression on the other family heads.
When the account was out, as Wu Jian said, someone came forward to ask if he was willing to camp in the army, and if he didn't want to, he could leave the camp without anyone stopping him.
In the big tent, Chu Xi looked at the backs of the four people and smiled slightly, turned his head and said calmly at Wu Gan,
"The owner of the village can rest assured, they will follow, but now the situation in the north is unclear, and they are still thinking about struggling. However, it is necessary to prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry, colluding with outsiders, and disturbing the situation on Zuoheng Road. The smile on Wu Gan's face disappeared, grabbed a jujube and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and spit out the jujube pit.
The jujube core drew a rounded arc and fell outside the tent, Wu Gen said coldly: "Let them make trouble, the more fierce the trouble, the better, just take the opportunity to completely cut it off." Pulling them over, just thinking that they could quickly calm down the situation on Zuoheng Road, plus they had an old relationship with a few people, so it was not easy to do too much. If you don't have a face to lose, then let's tear the dough dry, Zuoheng Road here, I will definitely not let others. When the war here in Gaogaki Castle is over, I will return north, leaving a force of men and horses for you to command, and escort the people of the city south. These families are more knowledgeable, and they can just loot some of their money and people. If you don't know how to be interested, don't be soft-hearted, completely exterminate them, and don't leave future troubles. Chu Xi nodded, he was already a ruthless person, and he would do it without Wu Gan's orders, he would be able to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Mo Zhitai, An Siwei, Bai Liqing, and Qi Zai all stayed in the dreadnought, they were all smart people, if they ran away, with the current power of the dreadnought, they just had an excuse to kill their own territory.
The reason why I wanted to delay the time was to see if the Hulan family could win and whether their power, territory, and people could be kept, but the time given by Wu Gen was too tight, only three days, how could this be good.
As a result, the falcons flew out of the army and flew south in a hurry. Three days later, the whole city of Gaoyuan City was destroyed, and as for the head of his family, Heita Yunfu, he was besieged and killed in the mansion by Cangye, Lu Zhou, Guguan and others.
Thanks to Wu Gan's earth-shattering blow in Gaoyuan City, there were not many masters of the Black Tower family, and after entering the city, in addition to those annoying street battles, it was much easier to attack the Black Tower family's mansion.
According to the military order, the people of the city began to tear down the walls everywhere. Under the persecution of the dreadnought army, these people living in the high walled city could only look sad and destroy this big city that had protected them with their own hands.
Needless to say, the captured military horses in the city, even those people, some of them must be sent to the south of Zuoheng Road to enrich the territory of the dreadnought.
After all, there are people who have soldiers and horses, only taxes, and only grain and grass. Seeing that the tall city wall was lowered little by little, and a wave of carriages and horses went south one after another, Mo Zhi, An Si and other four family heads finally lowered their heads and agreed to Wu Gan's plan.
Of course, the Mo family and the An Si family can still keep their own families, but the territory is much smaller all of a sudden, and it is difficult to return to the glory of the past.
After the big strategy was set, Wu Yan didn't bother to take care of it anymore, and let Chu Xi be specifically responsible. This time, Habao led people to attack the city, and Wu Gan set up a partial army, with Habao as the captain, under the jurisdiction of Sanqu, Liu Zheng, Zhang Chofu, and Hu Yanmo were respectively the commanders of the songs.
Due to the small number of Habao's subordinates, he incorporated the Heita family and his family's men and horses into it, and recruited some more, making up 10,000 of them, to be responsible for the defense of Zuoheng Road.
As for Xue Xin and other troops, they still had to go north to support the Hua family in the battle, and after the war, they still had to return to Liangsha Mountain. Zuoheng Road is too small to accommodate so many people, and besides, it is close to the rising sea, and the terrain is relatively flat and does not have much depth.
Once attacked by a strong enemy, it is better to have fewer people, but it is easy to be surrounded by people when there are more people.
"I'll go first, and I'll leave it to you at Hengmen Port. You have to lay out the harbor early, and when you prepare for the water, the afterwind will come to help you. The sea route from Hengmen Port to Yingke Island must be controlled in their hands, and those sailors of the Hulan family must rebel as soon as possible and cannot give it to others. Outside the fire thunderclouds in the far seas, to see if they can find some large islands, they must find a place for the Righteous Eagle army to stay. Wu Gen and Chu Xi talked while walking, and the dreadnought army in the distance was ready to go north to support the Hua family in the battle, and by the way, Wu Gen was sent back to Liangsha Mountain.
"The owner of the village can rest assured, now that the Heita family has been destroyed, there is no enemy on Zuoheng Road to compete with our army. It's just that if the Hua family plays, will they fulfill their original promise? If they turn against each other, Zuoheng Road will not be able to hold it here. Chu Xi clasped his hands in his sleeves and looked at Wu Yan with a calm face.
"Let's take one step at a time, now our dreadnought army does not have the strength to fight on two fronts, so we can only rely on these families, hibernate for a period of time, raise our prestige, and wait for the time. The army is far away in Liangsha Mountain, and here on Zuoheng Road, you can decide everything for yourself. Wu Gen looked at the smoke and dust stirred up by the horses running in the distance, and sighed.
It's not that he doesn't want to set up the army on Zuoheng Road, unlike the three places of Liangsha Mountain, which is dominated by the shepherds, how can he let an alien human race support all the control.
The reason why the herdsmen now let Wu Gen attack in the two provinces is also because he saw that Wu Gen did not have a relatively stable territory with a vast territory, just like water without roots, and the noise could not last for a while.
If Wu Gen dares to seize a province to stand on his own, believe it or not, the shepherds of the entire Kuntianzhou will be killed. So sometimes Wu Gen is also thinking about whether to push Chu Xi into a fearless military talker on the surface and form the Chu family or Chu State, so that the shepherd will accept it.
"Be careful, now the dreadnought army has gradually come to the open, the open gun is easy to dodge, the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, if there is no major war, it is better to stay in Liangsha Mountain." Chu Xi didn't know Wu Gan's thoughts, but he knew that Wu Gan was threatened by Che Yunlu, so he looked at the distance and whispered a suggestion.
"The rat will come even if it hides, and the fox will find it, so only by letting yourself grow fangs and claws can you survive. Forget it, don't worry about me, you're not safe here, be careful, if someone makes trouble, do it early, don't hesitate. Wu Yan smiled and patted Chu Xi on the shoulder, turned around and got into the carriage.
"Gone." Wu Yan raised his hand and gestured.
"Precious." Chu Xi bowed, and his waist was still so straight. The army turned north and escorted a long line of wagons and horses.
As the family closest to Hengmen Port, the Heita family is rich, not to mention that the family is rich, but it has allowed the dreadnoughts to get a lot of loot.
Wu Gen sat down in the carriage, Yu Hao was drinking in the car, and the side dish turned out to be the Tianyan rice that Wu Gen had coveted for a long time.
"What are you doing?" Yu Hao knocked away Wu Gan's hand stretched out to Tianyanmi, and glanced at the other party,
"If you want to eat, pay for it." Wu Yan grabbed a pot of wine, raised his head and took a sip, and complained: "Your master occupies such a big secret realm, and there are so many treasures in it, and he is still so stingy. ”
"It's a lot, but what can you give me, empty gloves white wolf." Yu Hao leaned against the wall of the car, showing her figure, and there was a faint flush on her cheeks.
Fingers gently swiped over the red lips, peach and plum white, all kinds of style. Wu Gan's throat squirmed, he raised the wine jug and took two sips, forcibly looking away, trying to suppress the restlessness in his heart,
"Tell me, what do you want, I think you should not look down on the goods of this world."
"I want you." Yu Hao's eyes were drunk, and her wet eyes seemed to be able to melt everything, and she looked at Wu Yan unscrupulously.
Wu Yan threw the wine jug with a snap, his body rushed forward, and he stepped forward to grab Yu Hao's wrist. The two of them were so close to each other, their faces were less than an inch apart, and each other's breath was entangled, making Yu Hao feel a powerful oppression.
"You're not a man or a woman, it's not my material, and I'm not a woman who entertains people with sex, so don't put on such a hook woman. Say, what exactly do you want. Wu Jian let go of the other party's hand and retreated with a sneer.
"It's a pity that if you can have an heir, you can be firmly tied to me. That's it. Yu Hao sat up, swept away his coquettish state, and said, "I want to ascend to the Heavenly Palace." Wu Yan raised his head suddenly, staring at the other party in amazement.
