After Jin Zi took Linshu County, the entire northern part of Qingzhou instantly fell into a panic.

They don't know where this Yuzhou soldier came from, and the unknown is what people fear the most.

In Jiaolong Bay Harbor, ships docked in the harbor, and when Heizi heard the battle report from his subordinates, the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile.

Now that Linshu County has been easily taken by the Jinzi Bow and Crossbow Battalion, it is undoubtedly a good start to this raid.

In today's situation, although it is not realistic to hold the captured county, it is still possible to create some chaos in the hinterland of the enemy army.

In the face of the ghostly Xiao Zi Battalion, these officials and men who stayed in various places in Qingzhou were afraid that they would always worry about their heads.

After the Xiao Ziying entered Qingzhou, although it did not plunder the local people like the Qingzhou army did in Lingshui County.

However, for the grain and corrupt officials in the county town and county, the strategy of burning and killing all the money was implemented.

As the two teams of Jin and Kuroko launched an offensive together, those local families who stayed in Qingzhou were all in danger.

A white panic quietly swept through the upper aristocratic circle of Qingzhou, but in the face of these well-equipped Xiao Zi battalions, there were really no extra troops to clean up the situation.

And since Xiao Ziying entered Qingzhou, the captured Linshu County also provided sufficient supplies for this expeditionary force.

Qingzhou, the county seat.

A group of military generals who stayed in Qingzhou and some local officials in Qingzhou got together to discuss countermeasures.

But in the face of the guerrilla warfare of the Xiao Ziying army, everyone didn't have much clue for a while, and they all drooped their heads and frowned.

"Do you find out where these Yuzhou soldiers came from?"

A stout middle-aged military general sat on the main seat and asked questions, and after a while, one of his subordinates reported forward.

After many days of exploration, the defenders who remained in Qingzhou have sent a number of spies to investigate the source of the enemy.

Naturally, the team of thousands of people could not withstand the interrogation of those who were interested, and the news that Xiao Ziying landed in Jiaolong Port on a sea ship was naturally investigated clearly.

But even if the Qingzhou army found out where these Yuzhou soldiers came from, they had no way to send troops to exterminate them.

At present, the troops left behind in the counties of Qingzhou are naturally much more than the Xiao Zi battalion that went to sea for an expedition, but these defenders scattered in various places cannot concentrate at all to encircle and suppress the enemy.

Qingzhou is a remote place near the sea, and there are countless ports and beaches on the coastline to the east.

When the time comes, the troops will be formed to deal with it, but I am afraid that before I can see the shadow of the enemy, the Xiao Zi battalion will already flee in a big boat.

Moreover, according to the report of his subordinates, the ships of the Xiao Zi Battalion were described in a big word.

For these Qingzhou generals, it is really unimaginable that such a ship can carry thousands of soldiers and soldiers to transport soldiers through the sea.

In the end, after discussing for a long time, they could only go back to step up patrols, and brought a letter to Lu Yaoliang, who was on an expedition to Lingshui County, asking him to decide.

On the other hand, Xiao Ziying's side, since opening up the situation in Linshu County, has been constantly harassing the counties in Qingzhou.

The towns and villages under its jurisdiction were all poor people, and the two temporary generals of Jin Zi and Kuroko were not interested in paying attention, and most of the counties were heavily guarded, so they set their sights on the county seats.

Most of these counties have no organized garrison forces, only three or two big cats and small cats in the county government.

Therefore, basically every time Xiao Ziying goes to a county seat, it is a big purge of landlords' old wealth.

One by one, corrupt officials or squires and landlords living in the county seat were cut off and hung on the side of the road by the Xiao Ziying camp that invaded the county seat.

The local people saw the old men who had oppressed them all the year round dumping their bodies on the streets, and they all secretly clapped their hands at home.

In addition, Xiao Ziying also visited the mountains where the mountain bandits were entrenched in various parts of Qingzhou, and promised to buy these mountain bandit leaders to harass all parts of Qingzhou with heavy profits, which can be regarded as uniting all the forces that can be united to resist the Qingzhou government.

Although these mountain bandits are not very useful, they are surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers from time to time on weekdays, and it is difficult not to make these men who lick blood with knives resentful.

Now that most of the troops in Qingzhou Mansion have been transferred to the battlefield in Lingshui County, it is when the government is empty, and these mountain bandits naturally don't mind falling into the well.

Moreover, as a mountain bandit of Hare Mountain before, Jin knew very well what these bandits wanted, and also knew their short-sightedness.

Basically, it didn't take much effort to hit it off with the local mountain bandit leaders and attack various county towns together.

In the face of the mountain bandits and Xiaozi battalions blooming everywhere, the local Qingzhou defenders were miserable but did not dare to deploy troops to encircle and suppress.

Once the county seat is lost again, Linshu County, which is still occupied by Xiao Ziying, is a lesson from the past.

……

In Linshu County, the largest mansion in the county, Jin Zi took a sip of tea, and sat Wang Chong, who was tied up, on the opposite side.

"Your Wang family should be regarded as a very powerful branch of Baoyu Qianzhuang, are you sure not to talk about it."

Jin Zi spoke slowly in a slightly playful tone, as if he didn't care about Wang Chong's thoughts at all.

After a few days of captivity, Wang Chong's last toughness also made Jin Zi quite appreciative.

Through the other defenders in the county town of Linshu County, Jin Zi learned that Wang Chong was from a well-known local family, and these families had a large amount of money in their hands, which was the military capital of the Qingzhou Army.

Now that Linshu County is occupied by the Xiao Zi Battalion, and the Supreme Commander is tied here again, Jin Zi has the idea of these treasures.

If you get the money saved by these families, it will definitely provide a lot of help for Xiao Ziying's military operations in Qingzhou, but the premise is to pry Wang Chong's mouth open.

Wang Chong, as the leader of the contemporary young generation of the Wang family, if he is willing to cooperate with Xiao Ziying, he will naturally be able to squeeze a lot of oil and water from the hands of these local clans.

But now Wang Chong's tough attitude is undoubtedly a little too ignorant, and there is no good way for gold to refuse to cooperate.

Tying up Wang Chong today is also an ultimatum to him, if he still has this stubborn attitude, as the highest-ranking guard general in Linshu County, he will only die.

"You are a member of the Wang family, you were born a royal nobleman, there is no need to die in vain at the hands of a chaotic army like us."

Listening to Jin Zi say slowly, Wang Chong snorted coldly. "Now Your Excellency is the head of the family of Linshu County, if I want to take my life, let me betray my clansmen without even thinking about it."

Hearing Wang Chong's sharp roar, Jin Zi frowned, and then stretched out to talk about other things.

"You think you're betraying your own people by cooperating with us, but have you ever thought about where your people are now?

If they really care about you, why hasn't there been any news of Linshu County for a few days?

You're just an outcast. \"

Listening to Jinzi's heart-piercing words, a trace of strangeness flashed in Wang Chong's eyes, but then he calmed down, raised his head high and did not answer.

Seeing this, Jin Zi chuckled, knowing that he had grasped Wang Chong's weakness, and began to continue to flush Wang's brain.

"You said before that your royal family is kind to the people and is a local benevolent and high-ranking family, but do you know what the local people really want?

I'm telling you, they don't just want a mouthful of food to live, they want dignity. ”

With the gold on the ground and the rhetorical question, Wang Chong was slightly moved and looked at the gold in front of him.

But Jin Zi did not continue to explain, but ordered his subordinates to escort Wang Chong to the streets of Linshu County to parade.

In the past few days, Xiao Ziying has wantonly killed corrupt officials and landlords in the city, and has established a lot of prestige in the hearts of the people in the city.

Now that Wang Chong was being escorted into the streets, these people saw that the high-ranking officials and lords were tied up like prisoners, and they picked up stones from the ground and threw them at them.

Listening to the insults coming from time to time in his ears, Wang Chong only felt a resentment rising in his heart.

In Wang Chong's heart, he is the protector of the people, saving them from the attacks of mountain bandits.

But with the continuous expansion of the ambition of Lu Yaoliang, the governor of Qingzhou, the wanton looting of the people's fat and ointment in Qingzhou has long been boiling with public resentment.

Standing on a high place, Wang Chong could not see the real life of the people at the bottom, and in the face of these people's questions, he began to doubt more and more the faith he adhered to in his heart.

"Am I really wrong?"

Ask yourself, Wang Chong, as the general of Linshu County, can fight to the death at the last moment without surrendering, and he can already be called a qualified general.

But he should not have been born in a family, and he couldn't defend himself in the face of these people's questions.

Now after Xiao Ziying entered the city, a series of actions have won the trust of the local people, and they, the government personnel, have become rats that everyone shouts at.

Wang Chong also knows the idea of gold.

As the highest-ranking guard general in Linshu County and a member of the well-known Wang family in Qingzhou, as long as he can loosen his mouth, he can reach a reconciliation with Xiao Ziying to a certain extent.

At that time, the local family paid for it, and the Xiao Ziying left them with their lives, and when these soldiers left, they could still get back what belonged to them.

After returning from the tour, Wang Chong proposed to the two Xiao Zi battalion soldiers who were guarding him that he would go and meet Di Jin, who had talked to him several times.

After coming to the big mansion where he had met Jinzi before, Jinzi personally untied Wang Chong and removed the hemp rope from his body, and Wang Chong also agreed to the other party's request to cooperate.

With Wang Chongdi's cooperation, Xiao Ziying's efficiency in collecting money and grain taxes in the local area instantly increased.

The highest-ranking guards in Linshu County have all defected, and these small families in the city simply have no strength to continue to resist to the end.

The reason why these small families chose to resist was more because they were worried that they would be held accountable by the Qingzhou government in the future.

Now that Wang Chong is taking the lead, they are more like breaking the fortune and eliminating disasters in exchange for their own small lives with the money they have accumulated at home.

Just when the land and gold in Qingzhou were frantically attacking various counties and counties, Lu Yaoliang, who was far away in Lingshui County, also got a letter from Qingzhou.

When he saw the words Yuzhou soldiers and big ships in the letter, he instantly thought of the military port where Xiao Jiu had built in Wanpingkou before.

"Why does this Xiao Jiu have so many ideas?"

In the face of Xiao Jiu, who has repeatedly made himself deflated, the hatred in Lu Yao's conscience is beyond measure, but he can only grit his teeth and scold a few words, and he can't do anything.
