Elf Sandstorm Lord

Chapter 246 The army crosses the river
Lisha Town,
The trauma caused by the beast tide to this town has not yet been healed, and it has fallen into the struggle of several lords.

Therefore, the reconstruction work of Lisha Town has not progressed much!

But today, there is good news for the residents still living in Lisha Town!

That was his homeland, and he was finally taken under the command of a young lord who had recently risen to prominence.

It is said that the number of people under his rule has exceeded [-], making him the second-largest person in Qinchuan County after Chen Qing.

Presumably under the protection of such a young hero, I and others can live a stable life again!
But at this moment, in the Provisional Government Affairs Office renovated from the former lord's palace of Baron Zhang Feng, the original owner of Lisha Town, a war without gunpowder was going on!

In this temporary conference room, although Su Yan was sitting at the top of the table, many people in the room opposed him!
"Lord Baron, we old guys have invested a lot of money for this battle. But now this arrangement seems unfair..."

The speaker was a Wind Speed ​​Dog knight who was over fifty years old. In addition to Wind Speed ​​Dog, he also owned three "classified" elves. He was the representative of the original Du family veteran group!
At this time, Du Weiwei, who was sitting next to Su Yan, also said:

"Baron, now that the two territories have just been merged, people's hearts are unstable and they still need confidence and comfort. Mr. Wen's statement is not unreasonable.

In my opinion, for the appointment of administrative and taxation officials in Lisar Town, it is better to just..."

Su Yan has the strongest power and has the status of a lord, so he naturally hopes to have full control over all the government affairs in Lisha Town!

But today, he finally experienced the troubles of those old families.

Not only the veteran group wants to make more profits, but also his own wife is jumping around, and will plant his cronies among them when they see the opportunity!
After such a meeting, the dividends of the war were finally roughly distributed!

The first is the defense of Lisha Town. Su Yan appointed Gu Hong as the city defense officer.Laochen Group and Du Weiwei each also hired a "ranked" knight as their deputy!

As for the large and small government and taxation officials in Lisha Town, as well as the farmland and manors around the town, although Su Yan himself occupies more, the three parties have basically equal power!
After that, in addition to arranging their own trusted government officials to come over to receive them, the three parties will also allocate some people from each of the four towns to fill Lisha Town.

The reason why consensus can be reached so quickly is because the opportunity is rare now, and none of the three parties want to get into internal friction in vain!
Nowadays, the internal structure of Qinchuan County is gradually stabilizing, but Longnan County, which is more prosperous to the north, is caught in a melee.

The latter is a large county on the Guanzhong Plain. After several wars, it still has a population of more than 20, which is not comparable to a small and remote county like Qinchuan County with tens of thousands of people!
Faced with such a good opportunity, Viscount Chen Qing has already sent troops to the north of the Weishui River and achieved some results!
If he is allowed to continue to develop, I am afraid that he alone will have the final say in the entire Qinchuan County!
In such a situation, they naturally would not let the opportunity go to waste.After allocating the interests of Lisha Town, everyone began to discuss the plan to enter Longxi County!

----------

A few days later, Linshui Town,
This is a small town in Longxi County adjacent to the north bank of the Weishui River.

But at this time, it was already in ruins.

However, due to its location close to Su Yan's territory south of the Wei River, and its terrain being conducive to defense, it temporarily became the first place where Su Yan's army was stationed in Longxi County!
Due to the ravages of beast tides and rebels, many fertile plains in Longxi County were destroyed.

In addition, countless local forces took advantage of the situation to establish their own closed large estate economies.

The people outside this area either fled and completely became powerful tenant farmers, or they turned into bandits and occupied the mountains to become kings!
Although Su Yan and others knew that there was plenty of good land outside that could be developed.

But there is no manpower on hand, so we can only occupy this town first, wait for the opportunity to gather some refugees, and start development and reconstruction!
This time, the five towns in Qinchuan County still need to stay heavily guarded, and the situation inside Su Yan's territory is also complicated, so they need to keep an eye on each other!

It is said that he has five towns in his name, but in fact, only two and a half of them are completely under his control!
This time when they marched into Longxi County, Du Weiwei was already a woman, so it was not easy for her to follow the army, but she also asked her close advisors to strictly prohibit the captain from leading the team, which represented her strength!

Naturally, Su Yan was not at ease. He left the huge lord's mansion to Du Weiwei and left Qin Shang, Qin Xueqing, Yang Mu and others there to watch!Therefore, although the barony had tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, the three parties combined only brought [-] soldiers across the river!

And this is already a rare force in Qinchuan County that has the power to interfere with Longxi County!
.........

Located in an area a few miles outside Linshui Town, a large house has been built here.

The owner of the house is an old knight who retired from old age. His surname is Zhou. He is 60 years old this year. He once worked as an errand under the baron of Linshui Town.

Although he has now returned to his land, his family, like the Du family's veteran group, also has considerable influence in the old owner's territory.

During the turbulent period, he built Wu Fort on the site of his original residence.

Although there were nobles nearby who asked him to pay, they were all rejected by him.

At this time, he spent a lot of money to improve the fortifications of Uburg.

In his opinion, unless a baron noble attacks with all his strength, there is no big threat.

Now that Linshui Town is in chaos, it is naturally a good time for him to encircle the land on a large scale.

If he managed it well for more than ten years, his family might really become a noble.

Besides, this family also supports dozens of capable trainers, as well as a few fighting elves.

Moreover, he and his son are both "listed" trainers. Both generations have served under the former baron of Linshui Town, so they really don't take the nearby bandits seriously.

That night, most people in the Zhou family's house had turned off their lights and were sleeping soundly. Only a few trainers on night duty were patrolling.

At this time, faint figures in the darkness came quickly outside the Zhou family's Wubao.

The leader looked around and said to the people around him: "Let's move quickly and use lightning speed to deal with the few Gugu outside first. We must do it quickly.

If a fight breaks out among our servants, they will naturally open the door for us and lead the way! "

"Don't worry, the third master is just a Zhou family. We can handle it with our strength if we work together internally and externally!"

Hearing this, the leader of the family, who was called the third master, said: "Don't be careless! Although the Zhou family is nothing to be afraid of.

But in the past few days, a group of barons from other counties have been stationed in Linshui Town not far away!

If he wants to occupy and develop the surrounding land, he will definitely start to deal with us!From now on, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for us to take action!
Well, it’s useless to talk more. Let’s do this first and then talk! "
