Chapter 67 Anping County

Seeing that Xingkong's body was fine, Shile suggested that they go after the Lightless Mage together. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Xingkong asked, "Since he has fled, why are we still chasing him?"

"I think his beads are good, and I want to play with them!"

Xingkong clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, good and good! What you said is easy, don't you just want to kill people and sell more goods?"

"He was the one who bullied us first!" said Schle.

"He bullied us, and we bullied him in turn, so what is the difference between us and him?" Xingkong said.

Of course, Shile immediately understood Xingkong's position, and he smiled and said, "Then forget it!"

Xingkong said: "I know that some people like to be happy and revenge, and return a tooth for a tooth, but I don't like that?"

"Although I do not agree with you, I agree with you as a friend," said Schle. Do you want to come back to Drifting Snow with me?"

"Has Mu Yingying returned to Drifting Snow City?" Xingkong asked.

"Yes, she's fine!" said Schler.

"Then you still ask for a ball?" Xingkong said.

Shi Le shook his head helplessly, and left the cliff side by side with Xingkong.

A few days later, they returned to Drifting Snow City.

Zheng Xiu immediately came to see Shi Le. He was very worried about Schler's safety, and severely reprimanded Schler for not leaving his post without permission.

Shi Le did not get angry in the face of the blame, but sincerely apologized to Zheng Xiu.

Zheng Xiu said embarrassedly: "It's me who went too far, please punish the city lord for the rudeness!"

Shi Le came to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's all your own brothers who don't talk to each other, how about you arranging to suppress the bandits?"

Zheng Xiu said: "It has been identified that more than 40 bandits are operating on a large scale in the chaotic plains. The number of people varies from dozens to hundreds. The largest of these bandits numbered more than a thousand people. They occupy a mountain forest and are very harmful to us. ”

Shile said, "Whoever destroys him first." ”

Zheng Xiu said: "We only have 5,000 soldiers in Drifting Snow City, of which there are only more than 500 cavalry. Zhengzhen can only draw more than 3,000 combat power. It would be difficult to annihilate a bandit of thousands in one fell swoop. ”

Schler asked, "Why do you say that?"

Zheng Xiu said: "If you hurt 1,000 enemies, you will lose 800 yourself! The combat strength of the bandits is not weaker than ours, and they should not be underestimated! Moreover, all the bandits in the entire chaotic plain have a total of more than 20,000 people, and how many people we have to sacrifice to wipe them all out." ”

Shi Le smiled and said, "What do you think should be?"

Zheng Xiu said: "It is better to strike at the bandit forces that are slightly weaker first. Then recruit a part of it, and gradually divide and disintegrate them. ”

Shi Le asked, "Then where is the best place to start the operation?"

Zheng Xiu said: "Hundreds of bandits have gathered by the Heishui River, and they are all evil. They also colluded with the army in Liangzhou, so it was better to attack them first. ”

Shile laughed and said, "The bandits by the Heishui River have been wiped out! This is what I have seen with my own eyes, so don't worry about them anymore!"

Zheng Xiu asked in surprise: "Who destroyed them, will this force affect us?" ”

Shile comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I arranged for someone to do it!"

When Zheng Xiu heard this, he admired Shi Le's five-body throw. He couldn't have imagined that Shi Le would only be out of the city for a few days, and he would be able to deal with the bandits in Heishui River with him.

Shi Le suddenly said sternly: "Zheng Xiu, I will hand over all the five thousand men and horses of Drifting Snow City to you. Ordered you to go out of the city overnight to destroy the largest bandit in the Chaos Plains. Tomorrow I will not hear that there is such a plague on the plains of chaos. Did you do it?"

Zheng Xiu knelt on the ground and said, "At such a cost, of course I will be able to complete the task." But when we left, Drifting Snow City became an empty city. What if there is a change?"

Shi Le waved his hand and said, "I will wait here for the arrival of the mutation!"

"Did the city lord really decide to take the risk?" asked Zheng Xiu.

Shile nodded!

"Xiu Ling!" Zheng Xiu said.

As soon as he left, he began to mobilize all of Drifting Snow's troops.

Shi Le didn't even ask the name of the bandit force from the beginning to the end. This made Zheng Xiu feel very depressed, and he was worried that Shi Le would act too much like this.

After the army was assembled, Schle came to inspect it.

"Have all the people arrived?" Shi Le asked Zheng Xiu.

"Three of the patriarchs were unable to make the trip due to illness and did not arrive when they received orders. Zheng Xiu said.

Shile said: "Don't wait for them, you immediately lead the team to set off." I will visit them personally. ”

Zheng Xiu went out of the city with 5,000 soldiers.

Shile arranged for Xingkong to follow them after him, just in case.

Xingkong didn't want to participate in this matter, but Mu Yingying had to drag him to go. Xingkong had no choice but to give in, and he and Mu Yingying followed behind the army on horseback.

After the army left the city, Shi Le did not sleep all night, and he entered the Psychic Hall and practiced until dawn.

At noon the next day, Drifting Snow City received a message from the flying pigeon, and the army led by Zheng Xiu won a great victory in the battle to exterminate the bandits.

Shi Le was overjoyed and immediately ordered Qianying to arrange a celebration banquet and wait for the army to return to the city.

On the third day, Zheng Xiu returned triumphantly with the army. When he came to the city of Drifting Snow, he saw Shi Le, with many of the city's clerks, standing at the gate to greet him. Zheng Xiu burst into tears with excitement.

Shi Le shook Zheng Xiu's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work! ”

Zheng Xiu looked up and saw that there were three human heads hanging on the tower of the city gate, which were the heads of the three Drifting Snow City elders who disobeyed the order.

He couldn't have imagined that Shile would do things so fiercely.

"I'm going to do it, let my words be forbidden in Snowdrift!" said Shile.

Zheng Xiu was already convinced by Shi Le at this time. He praised Shiler's ingenuity and sent the holy monks of the sky to bless them.

When Shi Le asked, he realized that the bandits were extremely cunning. The bandits' dens were full of traps, and there was a lot of fire oil buried. Fortunately, Xingkong captured the bandit leader with his hands, and saw through the bandits' conspiracy to bury fire oil in vain and use fire attack in advance, otherwise Drifting Snow City would have suffered a big loss this time.

Shi Le said: "In the future, with the blessing of the holy monk, our Drifting Snow City will definitely be in full swing!"

Everyone laughed, and after this battle, Xingkong became popular in Drifting Snow City.

In order to celebrate this victory, Drifting Snow City held a banquet for three days and three nights. Half of the money and grain seized from the bandits, Shile left the rest, and all the rest was rewarded for meritorious deeds. The families of the fallen fighters also received generous pensions.

When the wine was hot, the sergeants swore that they would follow Shilegan with determination in the future.

The next few days were even busier for Schler. He kept cultivating at night, and during the day, he discussed with Zheng Xiu how to govern the Chaotic Plains in the future.

After they had defeated the largest group of bandits, the rest of the bandits were terrified.

Schler soon issued a notice of peace and security. He ordered all the bandits to surrender within one month, or they would be killed.

Soon after the notice was posted, there was a response. It turns out that those bandits in the past are also connected with the army leaders in Drifting Snow City. The commanders of various armies also secretly supported many bandits for personal gain.

The three elders of Drifting Snow City who were killed by Shi Le did not want to participate in the suppression of bandits because they colluded with the bandits of the largest force outside the city.

Schler's thunderous means frightened everyone. Some commanders came to the door to plead guilty, and were willing to guarantee that several of the bandits accepted the recruitment.

Schler readily agreed. At the same time, he asked Zheng Xiu to lead a large army out of the nest, and wiped out seven bandits who refused to obey the order of Drifting Snow City.

Shile ordered all the unyielding bandits to be hanged on either side of the road leading to Drifting Snow City.

He had planned to exterminate all bandits, men, women, and children, who disobeyed the order. Xingkong resolutely disagreed, and Shile had no choice but to let go of the bandits' families according to Xingkong's wishes.

Rao is like this, and he still scares the bandits of the Chaotic Plains.

Sure enough, in less than a month, bandits from all over the Chaotic Plains threw themselves in.

Seeing that the overall situation had been stabilized, Shi Le immediately set about reforming and rectifying military discipline! Because a large number of bandits had been recruited, the number of troops in Drifting Snow City reached 20,000.

Schle began to train his army rigorously. He wants to make these ruffians tired to death every day, so that they don't have time to think nonsense.

Zheng Xiu announced the reward and punishment regulations for the new army. Fifteen of them reward the good and forty-five punish those who disobey the order. Except for 15 of the 45 punishment regulations, which are flogging, 30 of them are for violators, and there is no mercy for death.

If you escape from the battle, there is no forgiveness for killing! There is no forgiveness for killing women! There is no forgiveness for snatching people and property, and all these things! The soldiers of Drifting Snow City are so frightened that they dare not leave the barracks if they have nothing to do. They were afraid that if they accidentally broke the law, they would be beheaded by "Click!".

In this way, the people in the army only know training, and the quality of the soldiers improves very quickly. Schler did not hesitate to initiate the reward. The army has also slowly become accustomed to this strict management style.

The whole army from top to bottom worshipped Shile as a man of God.

Solved the bandit problem in the Plains of Chaos. Shile also issued a proclamation to restore agriculture and handicrafts in the Chaotic Plains, and designated several places as market towns.

He asked Jung-su to draw up a unique set of laws based on the laws of various parts of Kyushu and spread them in the Plains of Chaos.

Schler also established a systematic training academy for samurai.

In addition, a gentleman's camp was set up to train young samurai. All the expenses of the Junzi Camp are provided by the city lord of Drifting Snow City.

Since then, being able to enter the Gentleman's Camp has become the dream of all the teenagers in the Plains of Chaos.

Among the first batch of students arranged by Shile was the little beggar he had helped. The little girl looked pretty well after she was groomed, and Shile was very attentive to her. The little girl was moved, and she was particularly able to endure hardships when she trained.

Shi Le used the gold reserves of Demon Scorpion Island to purchase a large amount of grain seeds from Liangzhou and distribute them to the people in the Chaotic Plains.

Zheng Xiu also worked day and night, and was busy establishing a household registration system so that the land could be kept in order to facilitate the management of the people.

In order to make the people live here in peace, they also established a lord system. The entire Chaotic Plain was renamed Anping County, and thirty-six territories were divided. Each was stationed in the area by a group of samurai leagues.

Samurai were usually farmers, and they were free to train or go to a samurai academy for further training. In wartime, they are soldiers. The lords were elected by the samurai and then appointed by the Shile.

After a series of reforms, the new Anping County showed signs of prosperity.

Shile can finally put his mind at ease and do what he wants!

He planned to enter the Forbidden Mountain Range as soon as possible, as he was running out of time!
