Chapter 174

Liu Jing wore a black lacquered crown and a thick robe and fur. He sat on the high poop of the ship and flipped through the materials of Zhongshui Township.

Zhongshui Township is named after Zhongshui in the territory. To the west of Zhongshui is Zhongshui Township, which belongs to Ling County of Changsha County, and to the east of Zhongshui is Xinping Township, which belongs to Leiyang County of Guiyang County.

As we all know, Leiyang is famous for its iron management. Of the dozens of counties in the four counties of Jingnan, only Leiyang has an iron official.As for Xinping Township, there is a government-run smelting workshop in the township because of the iron production in the territory.

Zhongshui Township, just across the river from Xinping Township, actually produces iron, but because it is too close to Xinping Township, it is difficult to develop due to its influence.

However, many surnames in Zhongshui Township have private workshops, which can not only make farm tools, but also weapons. Children, trilogy, and guests hold them and guard Wubao, not to mention township pavilions, even county temples.

It's a pity that they met Liu Jing, an odd number, and their happy days are coming to an end.Liu Jing has already decided that he will kill at least half of the major surnames in Pingyang and Zhongshui townships.

In addition to collecting his population, resources, and strengthening himself, the more important reason is that he wants to build Pingyang and Zhongshui Townships into the rear of Ling County. In the future, he will fight against Liu Biao's army in Ling County. Be his solid backing.

Therefore, Erxiang can only have his own voice, and the others must obey unconditionally. In one sentence: Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!

Liu Jing's fleet did not rush forward, but traveled at a normal speed. It took a day and a half to arrive at Zhongshui Township in the afternoon of the next day.

There were not many people who greeted him at Xiangdu, only a few officials from Zhongshui Township, and five or six children who seemed to be local people with common surnames, and the messenger sent by Chu Fang was among them.

Chu Fang arrived in Pingyang Township the night before yesterday, rested overnight, and conquered Gongshiwu Fort at noon yesterday.It is estimated that before sunset today, Gong's belongings will be escorted to Zhongshui Township to join Liu Jing.

Liu Jing was immediately relieved when he heard that Gong's Wubao fell after only holding on for a long time, which was not too much beyond his expectation. After all, the five brothers of the Gong's family were all dead, and the children and tribes of the clan were also dead. Dropping down, there is no ability to resist Chu Fang's attack.

Afterwards, Liu Jing cast his eyes on the few village officials, and asked with a gentle face, "How many of you are the only ones in such a big Zhongshui Township?"

Several township officials looked at each other and pushed one person to reply: "Report to the Ming court, before Gong and Gong Fei gathered together to raise troops, and the township officials were either attached to rebellion or fled, we are the ones who fled before."

Liu Jingjing nodded, and turned his eyes again. Seeing him looking over, several local children with a common surname paid respects immediately, with a very humble attitude.

Liu Jing kept their surnames in his heart, no matter if it was from the heart, or hypocrisy, since they were so knowledgeable, Liu Jing would naturally let their family go.

Liu Jing asked Wang Qiang to stay behind in the fleet, and led more than [-] people on foot to enter Zhongshui Township. Ma Zhou and Yu Zheng took over the city defense immediately after entering the city. Now is an extraordinary time and we have to be careful.

Although the three surnames Wang, Pan, and Zheng who assisted the Gong family were almost wiped out, and now they can be said to be seriously injured, and most of them are unable to reproduce the incident, but be careful, there is no big mistake, the closer the victory is, the closer , the more you can't be negligent.

While waiting for Chu Fang's arrival, several other families came to visit Liu Jing.Among them were those from Pingyang Township. Obviously, the extermination of the Gong family had greatly touched them, so before Chu Fang arrived, they sent people to meet Liu Jing one step ahead.

Liu Jing also decided to cross them off the list.

At dusk, the convoy that Chu Fang escorted Gong's supplies finally appeared outside the city of Zhongshui Township.

Liu Jing went out of the city to greet him in person, and Chu Fang's armor was hardly damaged. With his style of charging forward at every turn, it can be seen that he did not encounter much resistance when attacking the Gong family.

Liu Jing asked with a smile: "Ziping, is the trip going well?"

Chu Fang nodded and said: "It's going well, there are no strong men in Gong's Wubao, there are only old and weak women and children, and the Wubao was captured in just one attack. On the contrary, it took a lot of time to build the ladder. "

Liu Jing was not in a hurry to ask how the harvest would be, as long as he looked at the endless supply convoy, he knew that the harvest must be huge.

Liu Jing took Chu Fang into the city for a detailed talk, and at the same time held a large banquet to celebrate Chu Fang and others, but this was just a trick to confuse others.After nightfall, Liu Jing asked Chu Fang and Ma Zhou to lead hundreds of people each to quietly go out of the city to raid Zheng's and Pan's Wubao who had assisted Gong before. Because this move was quite unexpected, Wubao was successfully captured that night.

The next day, the only surviving Wang family made some preparations. Facing the joint siege of Chu Fang and Ma Zhou, they resisted for two days and one night before Wubao fell.

So far, since Liu Jing went to the south, four surnames have been wiped out, Zhongshui and Pingyang Townships.

In the evening of that day, there were seven new arrivals from Erxiang. Liu Jing hosted a banquet in the Zhongshui Township Office, and arranged for his children and trilogy.

But the food on the table was getting colder and the wine was hotter and hotter, but Liu Jing never showed up.

Someone muttered in a low voice: "Why did the Ming court take so long to come? I am also a local surname, and the Ming court is so contemptuous of us."

"Silence. You don't want to die? The destruction of Gong, Zheng, Pan, and Wang is right in front of you. You are not afraid of the disaster of destroying the family, but I am."

"..."

However, as time passed bit by bit, the others gradually couldn't sit still. At this moment, there was a sudden burst of footsteps outside the courtyard, and the seven surnames couldn't help but look at each other.

Then, a group of armored soldiers armed with crossbows and swords rushed into the courtyard with a murderous look. The Qi surnames immediately reacted. Two people rushed out of the lobby decisively and tried to escape from the side by climbing over the wall. Unfortunately, they were shot dead by crossbow arrows before they could get close. .

The remaining five people all showed horror on their faces, shouted, and fled to the back room in a panic.

Now that Liu Jing had set up a killing scheme, how could there be omissions, there was also an ambush behind him, and several people in single clothes and short blades bumped into the swords of the soldiers, and several people were hacked to death in an instant.

The remaining two retreated back to the hall in embarrassment. At this time, the soldiers from outside the courtyard had already poured into the hall. Facing the soldiers surrounding them from all directions, the two of them broke down emotionally on the spot, discarded their weapons, and knelt down to beg for surrender.

However, Liu Jing had already ordered in advance that if no one was left alive this time, the armored soldiers would naturally not show mercy, they rushed forward, pinned them down, and beheaded them all with their swords in their hands.

The movement outside was almost at the same time as here, and Ma Zhou led many soldiers to kill all the children and trilogy of the seven surnames, and none of them slipped through the net.

After killing all the seven surnames, Liu Jing immediately sent troops to raid Qidengwubao.
