The next day, Yang Xin ordered the sea harrier to set up a reconnaissance team, and found more than 30 old thieves in Diaowo Mountain, who were responsible for investigating the movements of bandits and rebels in Haining Prefecture during this time.

Most of these people are farmers who can't survive, and Yang Xin was reluctant to do anything to them, but in today's situation, he has to be ruthless and take an iron hand.

Haining Prefecture is located in the middle of nowhere, this era is a poor and remote country, there are not too many big households that can be robbed, so the number of bandits is not too large, the largest group of Liang Daya has been eliminated, and the remaining most are four or five hundred people like the sea harrier before.

As soon as the news of Daxing's dispatch of troops to level thieves came out, local tyrants from all over Haining Prefecture rushed to come over and tie up, all thinking that Daxing Army would go to their own territory to level thieves first, and the food and salary were rushed to send, and there were also beautiful women, and there were many local tyrants who deposited silver in Daxing Qianzhuang, and in just over half a month, they increased the deposit of nearly 150,000 taels of silver.

Daxing people naturally smiled from ear to ear, Yang Xin did not refuse to come, even the beauties also accepted, leaving to be a maid or something, it is also good to save face when there is a big scene in the future.

With money, Yang Xin began to fight again, and the combat force increased to 2,000 people, with one general soldier, Daniel Zhang, two thousand households, Du Datou and Huang Fuxing, and twenty hundred households, most of whom were veterans brought over before, and also promoted some recruits, two reserve troops, Jiao Cripple as the chief soldier, two thousand households, Xue Laosan, and another newly promoted Li Quanyi.

The reserve battalion is only responsible for training and housekeeping, among which Xue Laosan's 1,000 people include the previous 100 veterans of the navy, and these 1,000 Yang Xin are all listed as sailors, preparing for the future competition with Zheng Chenggong at sea.

The thieves in Haining Prefecture were terrified, and they were either pacified, surrendered, or ran out of Haining Prefecture to live elsewhere.

In less than a month, 2,000 elite soldiers were trained, but they were relatively wasted, and more than 500 were killed or wounded in the process of suppressing bandits, and most of them were undertrained recruits.

Yang Xin promoted all the generals of more than 100 households to nationals, and 1,000 households increased one share to get two shares, while Daniel Zhang was directly promoted to three shares of full rank.

Of course, the reserve battalion is not among them, there are two units of Jiao Cripple, and the remaining two thousand households only have one unit, while the 100 households of recruits must wait for meritorious service and be upgraded to a combat battalion in order to obtain national qualifications.

On this day, Yang Xin was discussing the next step of the march with Daniel Zhang in Shuaiying, and Yang Yubu rushed over again.

"King Xing, there is something good."

Yang Yubu is now proud of the spring breeze, but he didn't expect to be the first to be beaten but a blessing in disguise, and the three nationals have a very high status in Daxing.

Yang Xin looked at the map without looking back, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Yang Yubu hurriedly said: "The prefect of Haining Prefecture sent someone to ask Daxing to surrender, and asked King Xing to send troops into the city to take over Haining Mansion." ”

Daniel Zhang on the side was stunned when he heard this, and said, "We didn't hit him again, what kind of surrender did he throw?" ”

Yang Xin laughed and said, "Daniel Zhang, you are still too young, you have now practiced in war, you are not good at politics, do you know, what is the reason why Haining Prefecture became a prefect?" ”

Daniel Zhang was dumbfounded, and said, "It should be the appointment of Daming before, as well as the servants and soldiers in his hands, right?" ”

Yang Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Wrong, these are useless, the prefect of Haining can become the prefect, and the power of the prefect is exercised by the support of the gentry. ”

Daniel Zhang is still a little confused, obviously the city is still there, the soldiers are still there, and no one is going to fight him, how can he take the initiative to come and surrender.

Yang Yubu knew the key to it, and said: "King Xing sees it clearly, so when will we enter the city?" ”

Yang Xin shook his head and said, "For such a trivial matter, do you still need a large army to enter the city?" You inform Bai Youcai and ask him to lead the team to take over the money and grain household registration of Fucheng, and the prefect will let him continue to be the prefect, but it is the prefect of my Daxing, you asked Bai Youcai to tell him to surrender to me Daxing as an official, and he must be a citizen of Daxing, and the entry fee will be according to the standard of 5,000 taels and 17 shares, and he cannot own private land, understand? ”

Yang Yubu agreed to the promise, thinking to himself, this entry fee has risen so fast, and it is good that he entered early, but he has taken a big advantage.

was about to leave, but was stopped by Yang Xin, "Wait, you notify Bai Youcai by the way, and ask him to recruit 3,000 people, prepare grain and grass, and all the 2,000 troops will go out in two days!" ”

Yang Yubu was stunned for a moment and asked, "King Xing, didn't you say that the army would not enter the city?" Why do you have to go on the expedition? ”

Yang Xin said with a smile: "The king of Haining Prefecture is no longer interested, and the army will go out to take Dengzhou!" ”

Yang Yubu was taken aback, this Dengzhou is the capital of Denglai, and this Xingwang is ready to compete for the rhythm of dominating the world!

So he didn't dare to ask anymore, and hurriedly took the order and left.

Yang Xin sneered in his heart, feudal society, that is, the Son of Heaven and scholars rule the world together, no matter how tight the alliance between the emperor and the landlord is, it is also a personal plan, everyone wants to put a little more in their pockets, there must be gaps.

But not compared to himself, directly cancel the landlord's private land, all the people of Daxing have no private land, the land is tied together, then, the inevitable interests are all tied together, the treasury is the private treasury of all alliance members, this is the real life and death, from Yang Yubu's attitude can be seen, that is really to do Daxing's affairs as their own affairs as their own dedication.

However, they can't always be with these landlords, this system still has a back, waiting to clean up these landlords, the task now, is to try to pretend to be a little more landlords in, one can expand their strength, second, but also for the next step to pave the way, but the next step is very dangerous, will not be a river of blood, now, he can't care about so much, now the first step has not opened the situation, only seven or eight landlords came in, the second step is too early.

These are all later words, the problem at hand, attacking a capital city with 2,000 people, even if Dengzhou City only has more than 1,000 defenders, and there is no morale, it is also a very difficult thing.

However, Yang Xin had no choice, he had no time, and when the Manchu army came over and took Dengzhou, he had to run to the DPRK by boat! It's time to fight the world.

The matter of mobilizing the army, the Daxing army is already familiar with it, and it has been fighting every day for the past month, but this time there are just more people.

So the next day, Yang Xin did nothing else, and studied the topographic map of the day with Daniel Zhang, Du Datou, and Huang Fuxing to discuss tactics.

This is the first time they have attacked a regular city, and it is pouring out, so naturally they are a little nervous, this is a desperate bet.

"Okay, for the time being, according to this plan, we will attack at night!"

Yang Xin looked at the map and finally finalized.

At this time, Kuroko came to report.

"King Xing, Li Anbo took a few squires to ask to see!"

Yang Xin was stunned for a moment, these people usually go directly to Yang Yubu when they have something, why did they come to find themselves today? Regarding government affairs, he is generally handed over to Bai Youcai to deal with, and Yang Yubu is now the second shopkeeper of Daxing Qianzhuang, and he is already the third person under Bai Youcai, and he is generally connected in the middle of the squire's affairs.

"Let them in!"
