Fu Song

Chapter 264

Bangzhou, Xiao Cheng must be taken down.

As a node in Qiannan area, how could Xiao Cheng tolerate him wandering outside?After winning Bangzhou, Qiannan can be effectively integrated to complete the first phase of the tasks he set for himself.

The nearly [-]-square-kilometer territory of the Jimi prefectures led by Qianzhou is, in the eyes of others, a barren, barbaric, poor, useless place.But in Xiao Cheng's eyes, it is a supreme treasure land.

In the eyes of others, those Yi tribes who have not been educated and do not know what Wanghua is, in Xiao Cheng's view, they are a pair of high-quality rice paper that has not been stained by ink stains. Scroll of Mountains and Rivers.

Those areas and people who were really under the rule of the Song Dynasty would instead become obstacles in Xiao Cheng's future plans.

A person has been kneeling for a long time, and you want him to stand up, it is really a lot of trouble.

A person just kneels occasionally, and his body is still full of unyielding spirit of resistance.

From time to time, these places where Xiao Cheng wants to jump out of the cage and make a fuss are the places where Xiao Cheng can show his talents.

And now, it's in the first phase.

stage of violent repression.

The people in such an area advocate the aesthetics of violence even more.

This is not only true for the chiefs and tribal leaders who occupy one side, but also for ordinary people.

Whoever has the bigger fist will be more reasonable in what he says.

The toughness of the people is reflected in the big or small fights.

It was also in their battles with the court that the court understood.

Although they were the ones who suffered at the end of every battle, they also used their own blood to let the court understand that if they were too harsh on the people in these places, these people would really rebel.

So, as long as you don't make trouble, it will be done.

So Xiao Cheng wants to integrate these places, the first step is naturally to let the people here know how hard his fists are.

And the first group of people he wanted to deal with were naturally the local tribal leaders and chiefs.

For those who are sensible, there will be a place for you in the newly integrated ruling class. For those who are not sensible, the chains have been prepared and ready to take people at any time.

Dushan, Sanshui, Nanping Prefecture, and Xunzhou have been integrated into one.Xiao Cheng combined them into a military state, named Tianwu Army, and Huang Rui, a native of Dushan County, was in charge of the army.Huang Rui is a local, and if he takes the lead as Zhijun, the local people will feel more at ease, and most of the official positions under the Zhijun are actually taken by local people. For example, Bai Xing is still in charge of Sanshui County. The state is still Wei Fu, but Nanping Prefecture has been replaced by Sun Jing from Dushan.

Sun Jing used to be a well-known doctor. He traveled all over Qiannan to practice medicine and save lives. He was a very prestigious figure in the local area. He was singled out to Nanping Prefecture, which greatly calmed the emotions of the local people.

Of course, these places have also been downgraded to counties.

Of course, the person who really holds the real power in the entire Tianwu Army is Yang Wanfu, the commander of the Tianwu Army. This person holds [-] soldiers and horses and is the most powerful person in the Tianwu Army.

The second is Jia Gui, the treasurer of the Tianwu Army stationed by the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce, who controls the financial power of the Tianwu Army.

These two, together with Huang Rui, formed the Iron Triangle of the Tianwu Army.

And there is only one person they need to be responsible for, and that is Xiao Cheng, who signed the contract in Qianzhou at the time.

After half a year of running-in and trimming, the Tianwu Army has basically taken shape.

Tiangong Iron Art has completely controlled the Dushan Iron Mine. A group of Tiangong Iron Artisans headed by Han Zhong arrived in Dushan. Blast furnaces for iron smelting have also sprung up. Mine, smelting, and iron workshops have been formed. A one-stop industrial chain has been formed.

The Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce basically controls the commercial activities in these four counties. It can be said that as long as the people here live, they cannot do without the supply of the Chamber of Commerce.

Only businessmen within the Qianzhou Federation of Commerce can walk and do business on this land. For others, no matter whether you are a high-ranking official or an ordinary person, as long as you dare to do it, the only thing waiting for you is the fate of being arrested.

Bangzhou Wang Li was not convinced, he wanted to challenge Xiao Cheng's authority.

Because of the important geographical location of Bangzhou, as the point of contact in southern Qiannan, the strength of the Wang family who controls Bangzhou is naturally not comparable to that of the Bai family who controls Sanshui, the Huang family of Dushan, and others. You can show the strength of thousands of fighters, and let these few pale in comparison.

Xiao Cheng's domineering behavior in Qianzhou made Wang Li very angry, because it was tantamount to cutting off the foundation of the Wang family at once.While preparing the army for the war, Wang Li contacted the leaders of various prefectures everywhere, feeling bitter about the truth.

Wang Li is going to be the leader of the alliance, and then set off a large-scale rebellion in Guizhou. It doesn't matter whether he wins or not. The important thing is to get rid of Xiao Cheng, the shit-stirring stick in Qianzhou.

Wang Li believed that as long as the momentum of this rebellion came together, as long as they made a request to Li Fang, the transshipment envoy on Kuizhou Road, then Xiao Cheng would naturally have to leave.

In the end, it was still the natives who ruled the place.

They are the masters of this land.

His calculations were very good, and his actions were quite methodical, but it was a pity that the opponent's reaction and strength far exceeded his imagination.

When Wang Li was still gathering the army to prepare for war, and when his envoys were still running around on the road, trying to persuade the various tribes, Xiao Cheng's army had already approached the city.

Five thousand people entered Bangzhou from three directions.

Yang Wanfu led [-] troops from south to north, Xiao Cheng brought [-] troops from north to south, and Tian's [-] troops from east to west. Three groups of soldiers and horses went out together. In less than ten days, the state led by Wang Li The main force of the state was defeated, and the last remnant soldiers retreated to Jiulong Cave.

The Wang family, which has ruled Bangzhou for nearly a hundred years, is about to be destroyed.

When Xiao Cheng walked into the Wang family's mansion, he happened to see groups of soldiers escorting a large number of old and weak women and children from the mansion.

Only women.

Even the children are only women.

"Anyone who can wield a knife and a gun followed Wang Li to Jiulong Cave, and the Wang family's males who stayed behind, regardless of their age, should be killed at this moment!" Huang An saw Xiao Cheng's doubts, and came together Go up, whispered. "This is our rule here, weed out the roots and leave no future troubles."

Xiao Cheng nodded. Although he couldn't bear it in his heart, this was the cleanest way to deal with it. For a family that had occupied the place for hundreds of years, it would be difficult to deter the place without using thunderous means.

Even these women who survived will not end well. The young ones will be sold to brothels by people from the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce. With the reputation of the Wang family, there are probably not a few people who are willing to patronize them.Most of those older women will be sold to some workshops to work, and finally die in obscurity.

Poor?

It's a little pitiful!
But Xiao Cheng was not soft-hearted. Winners and losers will end up like this, and they have already enjoyed the blessings in the first half of their lives. How could those who were squeezed by them have ever been pitied by others!
"The Wang family's mansion has been continuously expanded and constructed for hundreds of years. It is a first-class good house in the local area. More importantly, this house is strong enough and safe enough to sign the judgment. Look at the walls. Made of high-quality stone, the watchtowers look around without any dead ends..."

"No matter how reliable it is, we will blow it down!" Xiao Cheng said flatly: "It can be seen that the important thing is people, not these dead things."

Huang An chuckled: "That's the ability of the army led by General Han and other brave generals. If it were someone else, it wouldn't be so easy to take down the Wang family's house."

General Han is naturally the hammer Han Yan, and now he is the commander of the Qianzhou regiment, with a thousand people in his hand.It is said that it is the Xiang Army, but in fact, whether it is salary or equipment, it has long been comparable to the Forbidden Army.

And because of Xiao Cheng's personal planning, and the tireless day and night training of Han Kai and Li Xin, the combat effectiveness of this [-]-man army has already surpassed the average army by an unknown distance.

Whether it is Li Xin or Han Kai, they have all seen the combat effectiveness of the Guangrui army led by Xiao Dingtong, and they have also seen how the iron kite destroyed the enemy. They trained their troops completely according to this standard. , In the past six months, they have been continuously selecting and eliminating people. Those who can stay until now are all extremely fierce characters.

The Tiannan Army, in the eyes of Han Kai and Li Xin, is almost like a lamb.

And this so-called Xiang army gets two salaries, one is the salary of the Xiang army, which is paid by the Qianzhou prefecture. As the actual controller of Qianzhou, Xiao Cheng is of course extremely generous to them.The other one was issued by the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce, and this one is the big one.

This army was officially unveiled this time, and of course it was an extraordinary move. Not only did Yang Wanfu drool with envy, but it also shocked the soldiers of the Tian family from Sizhou.

This time the Tian family brought the troops here with Tian Guo, the uncle of Tian Chou, who was in charge of the family. When he first started his career, Tian Guo was proud and arrogant, thinking that he was the main force who did his part and was qualified to command all the troops.

But when Yang Wanfu led his troops to join him, Tian Guo's self-esteem was hit.This group of mobs he thought was put together, whether it was military appearance, discipline, or combat effectiveness, made Tian's army pale in comparison.

And when Tian Guo saw the thousand people led by Han Kai, he completely lost his voice.

As a veteran, he knew very well that when it comes to who is strong and who is weak among these [-] troops, the Tian family army he brought will undoubtedly be at the bottom. Compared with these two troops, they are not on the same level.

Among the three armies, in terms of combat effectiveness, Han Kai's unit should be ranked first, Yang Wanfu is second, and his Tian family can only be ranked third.

This made Tian Guo shocked, but also secretly vigilant, thinking to himself that after going back, he must talk to Tian Chou about this matter.When cooperating with a big tiger like Xiao Cheng, you must be more careful, because if one is not good, the Tian family may be folded in at that time.

While speaking, a group of people walked into the main house.

This is a three-storey house built entirely of stones. On top of the roof, there should be a wooden building, but it has been burned down.

There are signs of battle all over the house.

Ascending to the third floor and standing in front of the window, the field of vision suddenly widens. Looking from a distance, the blue sky and green clouds, the green hills, and the winding river are really a great picture of the country.

"It's indeed a good place, the Wang family will choose a place!" Xiao Cheng praised.

Huang An said with a smile: "Sign the judgment, then this house is left for you. It is very good to clean it carefully and do a separate job. After signing the judgment and coming to Bangzhou, there will be a place to stay."

"What do I want such a big place for?" Xiao Cheng shook his head with a smile: "Bangzhou is an excellent place, and Duyun is even better. In the future, the headquarters of the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce will move here. The Tianwu army will also be stationed here. Divide this mansion into two and divide it between two families!"

"Yes!" Huang An nodded repeatedly.

While they were talking, a group of people saw a horse galloping towards the road outside the mansion. Although the road was bumpy, the knight's riding skills were very good, and he was running extremely fast. Huang An looked at the knight's attire, but said happily: "Sign the verdict, it seems that the battle over the Nine Dragon Cave is over. This man must have come to announce the good news."

It is indeed to announce the good news.

After Wang Li fought tenaciously in Jiulong Cave for several days, he was finally wiped out by the coalition forces of Yang Wanfu and Tian Guo. Wang Li died in battle. Thousands of people fled into Jiulong Cave with Wang Li, and most of them were captured.

"The members of the Wang clan should be executed, and the rest should be sent to the Dushan Iron Mine!" Xiao Cheng gave such an order without batting an eyelid.

He needs to kill chickens and monkeys, and use the heads of everyone in the Wang Li family to tell these Jimi states under Qianzhou that they must either cooperate or die.

After taking down Bangzhou, Xiao Cheng felt more confident. The Jimi prefectures under the entire Qianzhou prefecture had been cut into two halves by him, and they were located in Tianwu Army, Bozhou Yangjia, Sizhou Tianjia and Pengshui In the encirclement of the four places, even if they want to unite, there is no possibility.

First control them economically, and then control them politically, and finally knead these dozens of prefectures into a whole.

After being out for nearly two months, it's time to go back. The next step is to find a way to take down Wang Wenzheng's Tiannan Army. In this way, the two ends of the north and the south will have the Tianwu Army and the Tiannan Army. , plus the Xiang army whose number can be controlled by himself, this area of ​​hundreds of thousands of square kilometers can be regarded as truly in his hands.

I don't know if at that time, the supreme being in Bianliang will regret putting himself here?
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng wanted to laugh.

I really want to clean myself up and put myself in a place like Bianliang, that is the biggest punishment for myself. For me, Bianliang makes people unable to breathe.

And a place like Qianzhou, to me, is like a big fish to the sea, and a bird to the sky.
