The blazing sun is baking Pengzhou City, which makes people reluctant to stay outside.
After handing over the reward to Fiji, Xiao Ming and others went to the main hall of Mi's family. The Pengzhou City battle was so smooth that Xiao Ming was surprised.
After inquiring about the process of the battles between Lufei and Luoxin, he gradually realized that the reason why the Pengzhou army would be defeated so quickly was that they were not familiar with the tactics of the southern expedition. They still used the traditional way of fighting against his army.
Therefore, under the long-range firepower of artillery and muskets, Pengzhou army suffered heavy casualties, which aggravated the fear of soldiers and greatly reduced the morale of Pengzhou City after the city gate was captured.
In view of this, Xiao Ming said to Lu Fei, "now that Pengzhou City is taken by us, Wei will have no natural danger to defend. From then on, it will be flat. Now that you take Pengzhou City as a stronghold, you will continue to attack the city and plunder the land southward and replenish your troops." Xiao Ming pondered.
These days, he has been thinking about the current strategy. According to his plan, he wants to annex Wei as soon as possible, so that he will not be attacked by the enemy on the side, and can deal with the vassal kings in the West wholeheartedly.
"Yes, your highness. "Luffy bowed.
When he gave an order to Lufei, Xiao Ming said to Fijian and other officials, "now how to manage Pengzhou City captured by the southern expedition is your business. In the past two days, you will count the land and the actual population of Pengzhou City and distribute the land to the people."
It was this policy that Xiao Ming insisted on that enabled him to get the support of the feudal people. After arriving in Qingzhou, Fiji had really felt the benefits of the changes brought by this policy.
Fiji nodded, and he said: "Your Highness, in addition to the normal equalization of land, the old minister thought that part of the good land should be given to the people who joined the army to encourage the local people to join the southern expedition, so that the southern expedition can continue to grow. "
" well, you're right. That's exactly what I thought. Now the fiefdom can't continue to provide soldiers for the southern expeditionary army. It can only rely on recruiting from the occupied cities. In addition to taking out part of the fertile land, you have to put up notices to appease the people and let them return as soon as possible. " Xiao Mingsu said.
Fiji and other officials should bow themselves.
After that, he took the officials to Pengzhou government office to take over the government affairs of Pengzhou City and its nearby counties and villages.
……
Jinling City.
The news of Pengzhou's defeat came here with the runaway aristocrats.
When Mi Wenyi told the king of Wei everything, the cup in his hand fell to the ground, and the king's face turned pale and his body shook.
"Uncle Huang! "Seeing this, Xiao Qi immediately came forward to help the king of Wei.
"Fifty thousand elite of Pengzhou City and the local rich clan's songs can't be kept for a day. What do you want from me?" After taking a quick breath, the king of Wei said angrily, "someone will take Mi Wenyi to my king and ask him tomorrow! "
" Your Highness, it's not that the officials neglect their duties and defeat before fighting. In fact, the king of Qi has too many guns and artillery. Although the soldiers and soldiers resist with their flesh and blood, they are of no help at all. " Mi Wenyi was shocked.
"I don't need your explanation. I don't think I value your mi family. I didn't expect that I was just a group of rotten people who made up for the number. Needless to say, Pengzhou City is the gateway of Wei land. Now there is no danger of losing Wei land. If I don't kill you, the guards of other cities will imitate you one by one." The king of Wei swore.
"Your Highness, spare your life." Mi Wenyi was dragged by the bodyguard, crying and being detained.
Xiao Qi sighed. He said to the king of Wei, "Uncle Huang, let's calm down. Today's plan is how to keep the land of the feudal state. This time, Xiao Ming is well prepared and aggressive. We can't wait to die. "
the fat face of the king of Wei was full of depression, he said:" Pengzhou City was broken in only one day, how many days can other cities resist? Is innocence going to kill me? "
" is uncle Huang feeling sorry for himself at this time? Xiao Ming's land is small, and he has many enemies. Most of his troops are used to guard against the king of Zhao. Although Pengzhou is lost this time, the army of the king of Qi is also at a loss. It is impossible to fight again without a period of rest. At this time, we should unite vertically and horizontally to make the king of Qi have no time to go south. "
"How do you say that? "
" Mi Wenyi said that the army of the king of Qi did not commit any crimes after entering the city. It can be seen that Xiao Mingqi's ambition was to pacify the people. If so, the next target of the king of Qi after Wei was Yan. My nephew thought that at this time, he would send envoys to form an alliance with the king of Yan to resist the king of Qi. "Said Xiao Qi.
The king of Wei frowned, "but the king of Yan has always been hostile. Will he agree? "
" if Wei is dead, the king of Yan will have a chance to face Xiao Ming's soldiers directly, which is more important. Naturally, the king of Yan knows that Wei and Yan are not equal in strength, and even if there are some frictions, they can't topple each other. But Xiao Ming is different. His ability to win Pengzhou City so easily is enough to show his strength. Facing such a strong enemy, only by joining hands can he resist. "
" well, you're right. It's not only the king of Yan, but also his own envoy to Chang'an and the state of Liang. If the alliance is successful, we will destroy Xiao Ming! "Said the king of Wei.
Xiao Qi nodded, bowed and said, "Uncle Huang, my nephew is willing to take on the responsibility of sending an envoy to repay uncle Huang's acceptance. "The king of Wei looked at Xiao Qi pitifully, and he said, "why do you need to go there in person? Just send some officials. "
" Uncle Huang, this is a big deal. Other officials are afraid that the alliance will be ruined when they go there. My nephew has no other skills, but has studied the vertical and horizontal skills of Guiguzi. "Said Xiao Qi.
The king of Wei sighed, "dear nephew, uncle Huang wanted to win the throne of the great Yu kingdom for you, but now he didn't report it himself. Uncle Huang is really ashamed of you."
Hearing this, Xiao Qi hesitated for a moment, and said: "Uncle Huang, my nephew has already put it down. Why can't uncle Huang put it down? If Uncle Huang can listen to my nephew's words, it's better to be a carefree lord since he is a minister to the king of Qi. In my nephew's opinion, only the king of Qi can restore his royal homeland that day."
"Xiao Qi, this is a time to grow other people's ambition and destroy their prestige." The king of Wei said angrily, "Uncle Huang will not submit to Xiao Ming."
With a sigh, Xiao Qi said, "in this case, my nephew will follow uncle Huang to the end."
Looking at Xiao Qi, the king of Wei didn't say what he wanted to say. He waved and let Xiao Qi leave.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he knew that he would always live in the shadow of Xiao Ming after the war of Cangzhou, and now everything has proved that his intuition is right.
But how could he bow to Xiao Ming as a king of honor? ,
