Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 76

Three hours after the military chaos in Taiyuan.

The gate of the north city was opened, and the army of Mozhou was sent into the city.

The generals of Mozhou were skeptical about the fall of Taiyuan City at first, but when they saw with their own eyes that the city defense gates were full of soldiers from the Northern Army, they had to accept this reality.

There was a moment of silence on the usually noisy street, and the people all hid at home, staring at the door, for fear that they would be kicked open by a soldier suddenly, and the whole family would be ruined.

Many families are busy hiding their children, and some even pour out all the water in the water tank and let the children squat in it, just because they are afraid that the soldiers will harm their children.

Thieves pass like a comb, and soldiers pass like a grate. The worries of the common people are not unreasonable.

But what they were afraid of didn't happen. The Zhenbei army made a lot of noise outside, but they didn't trespass on the houses. As long as they weren't on the list, they basically didn't get disturbed.

As the troops descended into the city, Chu Changning also went to the State Shepherd's Mansion. From the gate of the mansion, there was a garden. He was dazzled by the sight. He went all the way to the inner hall to see Su Yuan, and couldn't help feeling:

"My lord, this State Shepherd's Mansion is built like a royal palace!"

Su Yuandao: "Changning, have you ever been to the imperial palace?"

Chu Changning shook his head: "I haven't been there. But it's quite similar here, at least it's much more luxurious than Zhenbei Palace."

"It's all money from greed, so of course it doesn't feel bad to spend it."

For the tens of thousands of people in Beifeng City alone, the big families headed by Zhang Yuandong have collected so much money, let alone Xu Yichuan, the state shepherd.

In fact, not to mention the State Shepherd's Mansion, Lin's Mansion, Lu's Mansion, and Che's Mansion are all extravagant, and this is only in Taiyuan City.

In other cities in Mozhou, several big families also have many industries, houses, and fields.

Lu Wuyou told Su Yuan before that he had calculated by himself that the four major families alone accounted for [-]% of all the money in Mozhou.

Of the remaining [-]%, most of them are small and powerful families. It is the turn of the common people. With nearly a million people, I am afraid that there is not even a [-]%.

This number is shocking, but it is also normal in Da Zhou.It's not just Mozhou, there are twelve states in the Great Monday, and the situation in each state is roughly the same.

Su Yuan asked Chu Changning: "Is there a fight?"

"No, the lord has predicted things like a god, and the Mozhou army has directly surrendered."

Su Yuan nodded.

This is nothing surprising, this Mozhou army, according to the information provided by Jin Yiwei, Su Yuan knew that it had no combat effectiveness.

What kind of fighting power can a group of patchwork troops have?In fact, they are not as good as the servants raised by several big families.These guys usually eat and drink well, but they work hard when they encounter problems.

However, in front of the regular army, no matter how hard you work, it is useless. At most, you will be crushed if you change your posture.

Now Taiyuan, the capital city of Mozhou, has been completely taken down, and the people who should be arrested here are almost there.Some people on the list are not here, but in other cities in Mozhou.

Based on the principle of sooner rather than later, Su Yuan let Chu Changning rest for a while and set off again with troops to quickly capture other cities.

This is not difficult. The Mozhou army has mobilized many guards from each city, and now each city is empty.In addition, Taiyuan has been destroyed, so it is meaningless to defend other cities. In order to survive, the defenders will only quickly surrender and sacrifice the city.

Not long after Chu Changning left, Shen Lian also came.

"My lord." He said to Su Yuan, "The prisoners in the prison are all clamoring to see you. Do you need me to clean them up?"

"..."

Su Yuan thought for a while, the situation in Taiyuan is different from Beifeng City.

In a small city in Beicheng, there are not many civil servants and military generals, but Taiyuan, as the capital city of a state, has a lot of officials.Now they, who are used to being masters, suddenly went to prison, so one can imagine how big the gap will be in their hearts.

However, Su Yuan also had a way of dealing with these officials.

He found Lu Wuyou and asked him what he thought, but the two actually thought of going together.

At this moment, in prison.

Most of the officials were detained together, and it seemed that the Zhenbei Army was not worried about their collusion.

In fact, they were only focused on scolding Su Yuan at the moment, and there was really nothing to connect with them.

"Su Yuan! It's really insulting! What's the matter with me as a food official!"

"Isn't it worse than my brother? The little clerk in the next county government, has he ever violated any royal law? Wasn't he also arrested..."

"Hmph, king's law, what king's law is he talking about even if he has reversed it?"

Everyone was silent for a moment when they heard this sentence.

One person broke the silence and comforted everyone: "Colleagues, don't worry, we will be fine."

"Li Tongpan, why is this?" Everyone looked at the speaker in unison.

This person is a general judge in Mozhou Prefecture, with a smart and flexible mind, and he talked to everyone: "Everyone, to say something disrespectful, if the Holy One can't do anything, this Su Yuanzhen has occupied Mozhou, and he doesn't need someone. Help govern the place?"

"Have arrested and killed us all, who will Su Yuan find to take care of things? Could it be a group of mud legs who can't read? So I say you don't have to worry, then Su Yuan will let us out sooner or later."

Li Tongpan's words really touched the hearts of everyone.

It is true that Su Yuan is very good at fighting, but Mozhou is so big, can he manage it?In the end, officials like them are not needed.

Thinking of this, all the officials felt relieved and their expressions softened.

Seeing this, Li Tongpan said proudly: "Everyone, maybe we don't need to beg, so Su Yuan will have to beg us to go out!"

"Not bad! Brother Li said it well!"

"At that time, we will stay in the prison instead and join him in the army, haha!"

"That's right, let's see how he got transferred to Mozhou without us scholars!"

The more people talked, the more excited they became, as if they had expected Su Yuan to beg them to be released from prison and manage their affairs.

At this time, there was a sudden burst of applause.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

They looked towards the source of the sound and saw a young man approaching clapping his hands.

"You guys think well." Shen Lian smiled.

"Hmph." An elderly official stared at Shen Lian, "Why, Su Yuan asked you to let us out? Let me tell you, if he doesn't come in person, we won't go out!"

"That's right, we're not going out!"

"It's easy to catch us in, but want us to get out? It's not that simple!"

"Let Su Yuan apologize in person!"

Shen Lian listened with a smile, but no matter how you looked at that smile, it was a bit creepy.

"Everyone." He said, "Don't worry, it's not me who decides whether you can go out, nor adults."

When these words came out, everyone was a little confused.

That Li Tongpan frowned and said, "What do you mean? Even Su Yuan can't decide, so who else can?"

Shen Lian gave an answer that no one could have imagined.

"People."

"People?!"

"That's right, our lord said that the eyes of the people are discerning. So, let the people decide your life and death... Whoever the people say is good can go out and continue to be an official. Whoever says it is bad..."

Shen Lian squeezed her fingers: "Just stay here, and I will 'serve' well. So, please think back, were you good or bad to the people in the past? Have you ever bullied the good?"

Everyone's faces were almost flushed, and they became extremely pale in an instant!

On the Taiyuan city tower, Su Yuan and Lu Wuyou climbed up, looking to the east and far away.

"Wuyou, I told you to arrest people from the Lu family, don't you hate me in your heart."

"What does the prince say? Even if the prince doesn't let me go, I will go by myself." Lu Wuyou said, "This is the only way to show my determination."

"It's good that you can think so." Su Yuan let out a long sigh, "Mozhou is almost taken now."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Although Su Yuan has not yet occupied all the cities in Mozhou, it is only a matter of time, and it is not a bad idea to congratulate him in advance.

"The prince has a fat horse and a strong army, and is wise in governing the land. It is just around the corner to seize the great Zhou country."

"Haha."

Su Yuan was looking at the east at this moment, and he couldn't help feeling a little proud in his heart.

"What is the Great Zhou Dynasty? I want to travel all over the world, let the barbarians in all directions, overseas and western countries know my name, and make all the people stand up straight from the oppression of princes and nobles!"

Hearing this, Lu Wuyou's heart was also filled with emotion, and he cupped his hands and bowed: "This subordinate is willing to devote himself to assisting the prince to achieve his great cause."

"Okay. In this way, I should also be more 'serious' in rebellion. The name of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, 'King of Zhenbei', should also be changed."

Lu Wuyou said: "What the prince said is very true, it is time to tell the world, let the world know the existence of the prince. The prince should also publicize the governance policy widely, so that all the talented people in the world can know that the prince is wise, Come and run."

Su Yuan looked at Lu Wuyou: "Well, what Wuyou said is good. But the first step is to have a name. What should I call it?"

Lu Wuyou thought for a moment, then said: "My lord was born in the north, and he is determined to make the world peaceful and peaceful. Why don't we just choose a word for each and name it 'King of Bei'an'."

"'Bei'an King'." Su Yuan nodded and smiled, "Okay, not bad. Just be Bei'an King!"

The big weekly calendar celebrates the 41st year of Xiangxiang.

Su Yuan, the son of Su Tufeng, the King of Zhenbei, captured Taiyuan, the capital of Mozhou, and openly raised the anti-Zhou banner, calling himself "King of Bei'an", and spreading his orders to all directions.

For a moment, the capital was shaken, and the whole world was shocked.
