The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 63: Set out
Three days later, the whole Fangling County was filled with a solemn and strange atmosphere, and all the pedestrians were walking in a hurry.
Unless necessary, I would never stay outside for too long, but I would rush home. Close the door at home and sit quietly, not even the busy farming business outside, as if there are some wild beasts outside.
What caused these conditions? Within three days, Zhong Yu took his soldiers to encircle and suppress family by family. Killed all the noble clans in the entire Fangling County and four counties, and eliminated eleven noble clans.
's family is full of censures, not even a child, woman, or child, all of them have their heads cut off to build a Jingguan, piled up everywhere on the road to warn the people in the county.
is such a cruel, such a cruel method, people in the county have never heard of it. Like the evil spirits in hell, choosing people and devouring them.
was so scared that everyone panicked. A few timid people ran out to take a look at Jingguan, and fainted on the spot. Even if they returned home a little better, their mouths were trembling and muttering. do not know what to say.
Now in the entire county town, all things with prestige, strength, and financial resources have been cleaned up. All the people have lost their leaders, and they don’t have the ability to gather people to rebel.
If you want to rebel, it is impossible for anyone to yell in the street and respond in groups. Different people yell to rebel, and the effect is different!
If a poor man shouts for rebellion, it will be useless except for a pile of blind eyes and tolerance to come and arrest!
To get a group response, there must first be a prerequisite. This person must have the support of a group of people, or in other words, this person must be the kind of person who has prestige and responsibility in the public!
In Fangling County, people of prestige can't be farmers and a group of small businessmen, but only those nobles and scholars!
, only they have the financial resources to arm the soldiers; they have the brain to command the soldiers, and they have the prestige to rebel with those who eat with him.
Losing these conditions is just like the Yellow Turban Uprising, except that it can sweep the world at the beginning, but because there is no strategic goal, all of them are fighting in their own way.
Although it has a great momentum for a while, it will soon be seen through by others, and then each one will be broken, and gradually disappear into invisible.
Without the leadership of these gentry, can you expect those farmers who hold farm tools and think about the crops every day to gather together to rebel?
I was afraid that when I heard the rebellion, I was so scared that my urine flowed out. I ran to the pavilion chief to report it!
Therefore, after such a cleanup, my own county can be said to be completely stabilized, and it is difficult for any major setbacks to occur.
If someone wants to contact people in their own territory and give themselves a frustration inside and out, then he will find sadly that he can't find someone to cooperate with him.
Wouldn't it be possible to drag a person on the street and let the family risk the whole family's death by the government and rebel with them? No one would be like this!
Clean up all the hidden dangers? The gentry were all killed by themselves, and he could continue to march with peace of mind.
one thousand six hundred soldiers were left to garrison Fangling County, and Zhong Yu used to kill the gentry in the entire county, and the two hundred fortune he got was exchanged for four hundred soldiers.
So he still has eight hundred soldiers to go out with him, plus 100 soldiers is barely enough.
The sun rises, the golden light falls, and the armor on his body reflects the sparkling waves. Zhong Yuqi's tall horse, leading his army towards Hanzhong County.
The group headed towards Zhong Yu’s first goal, Xicheng County.
Xicheng County is the original prefecture of Hanzhong. It can be said to be the most extensive in Hanzhong. Since it was originally the first county, it has ample development and a prosperous population, with more than 50,000 people.
As long as you take it, you can say that you have already occupied half of Hanzhong County.
I only occupied Fangling County for only ten days. The ancient news was blocked, and it was very difficult to spread the news, although Fangling County was a traffic and trade road between Hanzhong and Jingzhou.
But it doesn’t matter if there is no news exchange for a few days. Maybe it’s raining, blocking the road, or what else? Who knows? In this era, there are always many accidents, and everyone is not surprised.
went all the way, and slowly approached Xicheng County. Xicheng County is located in the hinterland, surrounded by counties and counties. I haven't experienced war for a long time.
I haven't heard the news of an attack from other counties, so the defense is very lax. The army that has not been trained for a long time can be said to be a group of farmers with weapons in their hands.
I usually bully the good and fear the evil, and can also show off the power in front of those ignorant villagers, but if you really encounter a real army, it can be said to be collapsed, and it is completely useless.
And today, they are about to pay the price of their lives for their carelessness. A burst of cavalry charged and turned around. The princes of those soldiers who thought it was going out, came back from hunting and playing.
As the original county governor of Hanzhong County, there are still many clans in Xicheng County, densely packed, occupying the entire Xicheng County, occupying all the resources, and sucking the essence of the entire Xicheng like a vampire.
But then the cavalry came to the front to find out that it was wrong, but they did not think it was an enemy. They had no war experience for a long time and thought it was an army from the county town!
Until the cavalry raised their sabers and slashed across them high on the ground, the spurted scarlet blood, and the splashed earthy yellow ground was stained with crimson red.
They just yelled in a daze, only to find that they didn't even dare to move their bodies. In other words, he couldn't move, his whole body was stiffened by the scene in front of him.
They were taken aback. The cavalry would not be merciful. There was a sound of horseshoes, and there was no one at the gate of the city, only a corpse was left.
Then, an army of 800 infantrymen surrounded the entire city gate~IndoMTL.com~ and entered in file, spreading all over the city.
The cavalry went straight to the county office, trying to control all of them before the county officials found the problem and escaped, or directly killed them, so as not to let them summon the resistance forces from all over the county to avoid greater losses.
is easier than Zhong Yu imagined. Those officials only knew how to search for the minzhimin ointment to make their pockets more bulging.
Go to please the boss again, let yourself be promoted and make a fortune. They don't know the importance of city defense at all, or the long-term peace, let their vigilance slack.
It is like during the Yellow Turban Uprising, most of the counties and counties throughout the Central Plains were lost. It was not that there was no war, which made them think that those untouchables did not dare to rebel.
Then he bullied, looted, and treated the civilians like grass, not caring about their life or death. But I don't know that the rabbit bites people in a hurry, let alone a group of hungry people who are hungry?
What they lack is just a leader. When the time comes, they will raise their arms and respond in groups, forming a force capable of sweeping the entire world and burying any existence.
And Zhang Jiao just filled this place in their hearts, so Zhang Jiao became a great mentor in various places in the Central Plains, the leader of Taiping Road, and the spiritual leader of hundreds of thousands of residents.
led them to draw the end of the Han Dynasty, and completely sent them half of their foot into the coffin. There is no need for a single push from anyone, and this broken machine will be completely scrapped.
So Dong Zhuo appeared, and then the princes of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty joined together, and the Three Kingdoms developed.
There is no single population killed in the entire Central Plains. I'm afraid it is only possible when Mongolia conquered China. Let's take a look!
These are all Eastern Han dynasties, which have accumulated grievances over hundreds of years!
