Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 354 Transformation of Hebei County

Seeing Jiang Wei dismounting outside the city, he knelt down directly. The magistrate of Ji County who was watching the battle on top of the city was also not idle.

I quickly sent someone to make preparations.

what to prepare?Of course they are prepared to reward the three armies, but are they also prepared to die together?

He had no strong will to resist, and even planned to offend the Jiang family if necessary, and surrender to save his life even if Jiang Wei was sold. At this time, Jiang Wei was on his knees, and he had no other ideas.

The clever county magistrate also arranged for many sitters to guard both sides of the road near the city gate, holding wine, food, cloth, finance, etc.

There are also many young women among them, some are prostitutes in the city, and some are domestic slaves and maids kept by wealthy families, to express the "welcome" of the people of Hebei County to the heavenly soldiers of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, these are all arranged by wealthy families. After all, for the ordinary middle- and lower-class people and homesteaders in this place, they don't yet feel that their lives will change much because of their different affiliations.

After years of turmoil, this place has changed hands several times, and the lives of the people at the bottom have not been much better. The worst times are not to mention, and the best times are just barely surviving from starvation.

Naturally, it is impossible to expect this part of the people to take the initiative to "eat the slurry in the pot to welcome the king."

In fact, even these big households are very uneasy.

The army that captured the city has always needed "labor supplies". If Liu Chan was not satisfied with their arrangements and took action himself...I'm afraid the scene would not be so pretty.

They didn't know much about the Crown Prince who was rumored to be brave, but they were too familiar with the practices of other leading generals.

The women in the city were forced to "work" and "borrow" some food, wine, and clothing. It seemed that this kind of thing was not even considered robbery.

Even the history books would not spend a fortune on such a trivial matter, and the leading generals would not be guilty of letting such a thing affect the morale of the troops under their command. Most of them would turn a blind eye.

There are also many people who deliberately condone it and even directly join it themselves.

At that time, if his wife and daughter are attracted by him, he will be in trouble. It is better to offer him as soon as he opens the city. It will be better for everyone.

……

The city gates were wide open, and in front was Meng Yan, who led his team into the city and quickly took over important areas of city defense.

Then Liu Chan walked in with the flattered Jiang Wei, surrounded by the Red Star Army with strict military discipline and marching in unison.

He was already shocked when he was far away, but now that he is close, Jiang Wei is even more curious about the amazement and curiosity of these prince's personal soldiers.

Such a strong military discipline, like a puppet in the government, how could it be achieved if it were not for the extremely strict and ruthless military law?
However, in this case, the soldiers will inevitably be tortured by the high pressure to the point of losing their energy and spirit, and become numb and mindless killing tools.

In fact, being able to do this is already a very clever way of training and running an army.

But the roar he heard just now, the energy contained in it was not something that could be emitted by some numb killing tool...

But now that Jiang Wei himself has become one of the captains, he naturally has the opportunity to understand the secrets hidden here up close.

In addition to Jiang Wei, those who were curious about these elites were also the children of wealthy families in Hebei County who were arranged to come along the road to greet them.

They thought about various possibilities. In the worst case, they might have less money and food, fewer women, or not enough for the army, which angered them as to how they should further compromise and avoid conflicts.

In the best case scenario, the army led by Prince Liu Chan is worthy of his father's reputation for benevolence. After receiving the money and food, the women can really be restrained and no more troubles will occur.

However, the big households in Hebei County, who thought they had considered various situations, never expected that their preparations would not be sent out.

The first batch of soldiers entering the city were wary and eager to take over important areas for city defense.

But the soldiers who came in from behind were even more outrageous than those in front. At least there was regret in the eyes of those in front.

Obviously out of helplessness, they hurried to various places under the leadership of generals.

However, these soldiers in front of me now... seem like they can't even see the money and food they sent.

As for those women who took the initiative to come forward, they would all receive cold scrutiny, which made them retreat quickly and not dare to be presumptuous again.

These big households in Hebei County, who were already worried, not only did not feel at ease at this time, but they even murmured in their hearts.

What is this for?You wouldn't want to directly loot and confiscate homes throughout the city, or even massacre the city, right?There's no reason... They didn't do anything. Besides, the man in the Jiang family looks so appreciated by the prince?The situation that these people cannot understand is actually a matter of course in the eyes of the Red Star Army soldiers.

The Red Star Army's laws seem loose when taken out, but the law enforcement is extremely strict. It can be said that every law must be followed.

Some armies with much stricter military laws may seem to commit beheadings at every turn, but in fact, in order to take into account the overall morale of the military, they are often lenient in enforcing the law for various reasons.

But this has never existed in the Red Star Army.

You said you are not allowed to take bricks and tiles from the common people, but if you do, you will be dealt with by military law.

Their treatment is already high, so there is no need to violate military law for such a small profit.

As for these women who take the initiative to approach...

Before the soldiers of the Red Star Army considered whether they were male or female, handsome or ugly, their priority was actually whether they were assassins and whether they planned to assassinate the prince.

After the Chengdu assassination incident, the most sensitive ones were these Red Star Army soldiers. Since then, Li Er specially strengthened "anti-assassination training" for them, and the prince's safety was extremely high.

Not to mention this small scene now, even if these women come over naked, their first reaction is whether the other party is trying to attract their attention to assassinate...

So much so that sometimes it made Liu Chan dumbfounded, but they still went their own way and didn't feel there was anything wrong at all.

After entering the county government, Liu Chan immediately began to understand the large and small power groups, money and grain reserves, and city defense situation in Hebei County.

At the same time, Red Star Army reserve members were dispatched to personally lead other soldiers to disperse and go to the county town to preach the "Han Policy" and the temporary arrangements for Hebei County.

Even the people at the lowest level are included in the propaganda, which also includes the issue of "subsidy and resettlement" for them.

After experiencing Nanzhong, the Red Star Army is extremely familiar with this work.

Then Liu Chan also personally met with those big households in Hebei County. Although the soldiers were not allowed to collect property without authorization, Liu Chan did not reject their active "expression" this time.

But while giving them reassurance, they also brought out some things that were blind and inactive to scare the monkeys.

And this part of the harvest from filial piety and "killing local tycoons" has naturally become a source of subsidies for the people at the bottom.

Of course, this kind of wealth redistribution that kills the rich and helps the poor cannot fundamentally solve all problems.

But it can immediately make the people at the bottom of Ji County understand what kind of army the Han army is today.

It can also let other big players know that Liu Chan's benevolence has the biggest prerequisite - you have to be obedient.

As for the fundamental improvement of the system, it is a long-term and huge project.

This series of actions was seen by Jiang Wei. While his recognition of Liu Chan increased greatly, his favorability level also increased steadily, reaching 40.

By the way, the strategic talent has also been raised to [rare in the world] (012/400).

Liu Chan, who was originally traveling in a hurry, suddenly slowed down in Ji County and patiently transformed the Tianshui County.

So much so that Ding Feng asked with some confusion: "Prince, the military situation is urgent, why are you so aggressive in attacking Ji County?"

Liu Chan smiled and looked at Jiang Wei, who had been chatting happily with him in recent days: "Boyue, do you know the reason?"

Jiang Wei already knew Liu Chan's strategic intention for this march, and knew that they were going to occupy the street pavilion and block Cao's army's westward route.

I saw him pacing and pondering for a moment, then he raised his head and seemed to have some idea: "Because it's because of Shanggui. No, it's also for the future of Longyou!"

Liu Chan looked at Ding Feng, who first frowned in thought, then relaxed his brows and clasped his fists: "I see, this subordinate has been taught a lesson."

Liu Chan nodded with a smile: "Now that I am a big man, I can be said to have a lot of talents. It is so comforting to be lonely."

Thinking again about the next generation of talents being educated in Yizhou, there are no generals in Shu, and the dilemma of Liao Hua becoming a pioneer will definitely not happen again.
