Chapter 474

Soon, the shouts of killing stopped, and Zhang jaw ordered the soldiers to clean the city, guard the four city gates, and guard all important places.

However, the people in the city were still afraid to go out. It was only in the afternoon that a few brave people opened their doors and walked into the street. They could see a group of five soldiers in the street. Their faces were serious and they were walking and patrolling on the street. It seemed that they were a little scared. However, it was totally different from the lazy yuan Shujun in the city.

"My Lord, who is under your command?" He ventured to ask.

The sergeant who was asked stopped, with a kind face and some pride: "brother, we are the king's division of the court, and the leader is Zhang Annan, under the command of the general."

The man looks surprised: "originally is Wang Shi, disrespectful."

"Nothing." The sergeant replied, "go back and preach more. Please don't be afraid of the people in the city. We, the king's division of the imperial court, only come to recover the lost land and will not disturb the people in the city."

"Yes." The sergeant suddenly thought of it and said with a smile, "at noon today, my general opened a warehouse to release grain. All the residents in the city can come to get five buckets of grain."

"Five doodles?"

The man was overjoyed: "I will go back and tell them that I will come at noon."

One stone of grain and grass is ten Dou, which is the ration of an ordinary adult man for a month. Five buckets are enough for the whole family to eat for several days. How can we be unhappy.

"Did you hear that? It was the Royal division of the imperial court that captured Kunyang, under the command of General Liu. "

"Yes, these Sergeants are hard to get in touch with, but they don't offend us."

"The leader is Zhang Annan, who is under the command of General Liu. It is said that he will open a warehouse to release grain at noon. Everyone will go to get it."

At noon, in front of the granary, Kunyang city people immediately lined up a long line, heard that it was free food, so almost all the people in the city came.

"Old man, this is your food and grass. Five buckets, you should keep it well."

"Thank you very much. Thank you very much."

"Little lady, five buckets of grain and grass, take it back."

The people who got the food and grass in the city were all very happy. Usually, these military masters came to search for the people. Where did they see the soldiers giving food and grass to the people instead?

"Thanks to Yuan Shu's great wealth and wealth, we would not have been distressed if we distributed food and grass." He said with a smile.

"Yes." FA Zheng was quite moved: "Yuan Shu used to scrape the land three feet every day. He didn't know the truth of storing and enriching the people. He stored grain and grass in the Treasury, but today it happened to be taken by our army to be a good man."

When Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooked wine and talked about the heroes of the world, Liu Bei once mentioned Yuan Shu, saying that "Huainan Yuan Shu, the essence of the army and sufficient food". The essence of the army is not necessarily. At most, it can be regarded as a large number of soldiers, but the food supply is real. If there is no huge grain and grass savings, how can Yuan Shu use nearly 100000 troops at any time?

Unlike Liu Ye's "15 taxes and 1 tax", most of the people under Yuan Shu's rule had three taxes, one tax, and even five taxes. The common people could not bear hardships, but this time it was cheaper for Fazheng and Zhang jaw.

After Zhang's wide distribution of grain and forage, all the people in the city were grateful. At this time, fajie struck while the iron was hot and issued a recruitment order: as long as the civilian husband delivered grain and grass for the king's division, the rations were provided by Nanyang army, and two stones of grain and grass were distributed every month to support their families.

If Zhang jaw and FA Zheng had just captured Kunyang city and immediately recruited soldiers, it was estimated that most of the people in the city would not agree. If Zhang jaw forced a strong man, it would be the same as Yuan Shu.

However, after the distribution of grain and fodder, the people in the city naturally trusted Zhang and Fazheng. Therefore, many people enthusiastically carried food and grass for Zhang's army. At one time, more than 3000 civilian husbands were recruited, and the momentum of Zhang's army doubled.

After Zhang jaw recruited civilian men, he immediately took 3000 Nanyang army and more than 3000 civilian men out of Kunyang city and rushed to Wuyang city to the east of Kunyang city.

Although the city of Kunyang was captured, no one of the guards could escape. Therefore, the news of the fall of Kunyang was not spread out. In addition, the city gate was closely guarded by Zhang jaw, and a fly could not fly out.

Zhang jaw sent a group of elite soldiers to change into ordinary people's clothes and mix with the people. When they were near the gate of Wuyang City, a group of soldiers suddenly killed people and immediately controlled the gate of Wuyang.

As soon as he led the army of Kunyang into the city, he was not prepared to defend the city.

At the same time, the number of people who had been recruited by Zhang Haofu was even larger than that of the soldiers in Kaiyang.

"General Zhang." Fazheng suggested: "now that our army has taken over 10000 civilians from two cities, there is no need to sneak around any more. Liu Yuzhou must be defending Zhang Xun's 60000 army. The pressure is already great. Please send troops immediately."

Zhang jaw nodded and said confidently, "in this way, our army will enter Shangcai!"

Shangcai city is only a few tens of miles away from Pingyu, the seat of Runan County. It can be said that once Shangcai falls, Pingyu will be exposed before the enemy's front.Shangcai city.

Outside the city, under a big flag, a team came slowly, and the garrison in the city was stunned.

"There seems to be an enemy outside the city."

"What?"

The rest of the guards looked out and were startled.

"The enemy is coming. Close the four gates quickly."

"Report to county officer, quick!"

Shangcai City, as a barrier close to Pingyu, is naturally much stronger than that of Kunyang and Wuyang. The garrison in the city saw the arrival of Zhang jaw's army, so they quickly closed all the city gates and invited county officers.

County captain heard the arrival of the enemy, suddenly surprised: "what, there is an enemy?"

He hastily climbed to the head of the city. He saw that the enemy troops had made a list of their formation, which was a vast area. Suddenly, he galloped out of the enemy troops and rushed to a distance of about 200 steps from the head of the city.

"Listen to the garrison on the head of the city. We are the Royal division! Zhang Annan was ordered by the general to lead 30000 troops into Runan. If you are wise enough, you should surrender as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be able to cut back after breaking the city! "

"30000 troops?" The county captain frowned and looked out.

"Li Xian Wei, what's the matter?" The garrison on one side said nervously.

Li County Wei slightly shook his head: "the enemy is at most 10000 people, but it is not like 30000 troops."

"Oh, let's not guess. It's just to report it to the police. Maybe, my Lord, your majesty sent a large army to help us?"

Li Yan shook his head helplessly: "then report it and see what the LORD said there."
