Ge Wuka who was drinking felt his heart thump loudly, he raised his head and looked at the leader who was talking. Zhang Banxian's words rang in his ears again. Chinese Army had not left yet, but they were already fighting for rewards. If she let these tribes separate, he really wouldn't be able to control them. He scanned the leaders of the nine tribes. After he swallowed the wine, he slowly said:

"Leader, for the sake of our Urushion's development and growth, our Military Advisor has already recommended us to integrate all of our Wuhuan Tribe's herding and centralized management. What do you think?"

"Ah …"

All of the clan leaders cried out in fear. Although they had pledged their allegiance to the Han people, and although they had obeyed Ge Wuka, they were still clan leaders. Their subordinates would definitely not listen to anyone else's orders. They were almost in unison in their opposition.

"No, absolutely not!"

"We, the Urushion, worship freedom. We will never listen to the orders of others!"

"Let's go now!"

The tribal leaders put down their wine cups and stood up with a "Teng" sound. They turned their heads and walked out. They felt that they had been tricked, and didn't even look at Ge Wuka.

"Attack!" Ge Wuka suddenly bellowed, and slammed the wine cup on the table.

Just then, the leaders of the nine tribes realized that a large group of warriors from Ge Wuka's Big Account had rushed in. So it turned out that Ge Wuka was already prepared. No matter if they agreed or not, it would be difficult for them to escape death today.

"Kill!"

These tribal leaders had fought their way through the blood and fire. They immediately pulled out their sabers and began to fight with the warriors who were lying in ambush. Although Ge Wuka had ambushed many warriors, there were still a few leaders of the nine tribes who resisted with all their might and rushed out of Ge Wuka's Big Account.

These nine tribe leaders did not come alone. Their guards were all near to Ge Wuka's Big Account. Seeing that their leader was being hunted, some guards immediately went back to report, and others immediately pulled out their blades to join the battle. In that moment, a chaotic battle took place between Ge Wuka's Big Account s.

Before long, the Wuhuan cavalry s of various tribes had arrived near Ge Wuka's Big Account and joined the battle. Although the tribe cavalry didn't know what was happening, when they saw that the leaders were fighting with Ge Wuka's troops, they started to attack Ge Wuka's tribe together.

Since Ge Wuka's tribe was originally the other tribe's cavalry that he had forcefully annexed recently, they were not as loyal as they thought on behalf of Ge Wuka. They had either sneaked away or surrendered on the spot, and only his original tribe was fighting with their lives.

It was only then that Ge Wuka felt that something was wrong, he had underestimated the valiance of these leaders. Although they had already killed several tribal leaders, a large number of cavalry soldiers had already surrounded them. He shouted and led the last of his warriors to fight with all their might.

Suddenly, a group of Wuhuan Warrior appeared from behind them, making the warriors of Ge Wuka a mess. Ge Wuka immediately turned his head around, but unexpectedly, a Arrows flew over, and ruthlessly shot into Ge Wuka's mouth. The sharp Arrows immediately pierced through Ge Wuka's skull, going straight to the back of his head.

The chaotic battle of the Urushion had long since alarmed the Chinese cavalry. A long horn sounded and tens of thousands of Chinese cavalry s surrounded the Urushion's camp. The battle had not been going on for long, and Zhang Banxian had already brought a large number of cavalry into the camp of the Urushion.

"Put down your weapons and kill those who disobey!"

Tens of thousands of torches lit up Urushion's camp, the ground was littered with wolf tracks, more than three thousand Urushion had died in the battle, the rest of the Urushion were at a loss. In front of these tens of thousands of strong Chinese cavalry, they had no choice but to put down their scimitar s.

Zhang Banxian ordered the remaining three clan leaders to go to Ge Wuka's tent, asked about the situation and then tied them up. She also asked the guards to pour a few jars of alcohol into their mouths, and only brought them outside after they had yet to wake up.

The Zhang Banxian's face was stern as she said loudly, "Everyone listen, the leaders of these tribes are all drunk. They cut and killed each other, causing a war between all of the Wuhuan Tribes. They are really not fit to be the leaders of the tribes. Today's fault lies entirely with these leaders, it has nothing to do with you. Men, behead these drunken leaders. "

Before anyone could react, a few Chinese cavalry leaders had already raised their hands and brandished their swords, and the heads of the three leaders rolled on the ground. All the Urushion s looked at each other in dismay. Right now, all their leaders had already been killed.

"Now, I will give you two choices. Join the Chinese cavalry or die. Those who are willing to join the Chinese cavalry, will stand on the left side. Those who are unwilling to join the Chinese cavalry, will stand on the right side. " Zhang Banxian glanced at Knight Wu Huan and shouted coldly.

After hesitating for a while, the Wuhuan cavalry s finally started to walk towards the left. No one was willing to die, especially in this situation where all the dragons had no leader, let alone go all out. Maybe, if they chose to join the Chinese cavalry, they would change their fate. Just as Yang Lin returned to the Guangyang City from the mountains, the Guangyang County came looking for him. He had been waiting for a long time. Once he walked into Yang Lin's tent, Jiang Li anxiously said: "Lord General, you came back really good. I have something urgent for you."

"Oh …" What is so urgent? " Looking at Jiang Li's flustered appearance, Yang Lin could not help but chuckle. After not seeing Jiang Li for more than a month, Jiang Li had lost a lot of weight. It seemed that the tax collection he had received recently had made him busy.

"Lord General, during the process of collecting taxes, we discovered a large number of villagers, who, in order to avoid the taxation of the imperial court, had given their land to the Scholars and Wealthy Classes, and attached it to the families of the Scholars and Wealthy Classes, becoming their tenants. Now that there were new methods of expropriation, especially for those under ten thousand mu, which were collected at twenty percent, they would no longer have any benefits if they attached themselves to the Scholars or Wealthy Class families, thus they all demanded for their land to be taken back, no longer being attached to the Scholars or Wealthy Class. But the Scholars and Wealthy Classes made things difficult for them with all sorts of reasons and refused to return their land. So, I plan to use the name of the Guangyang taiwai to force the Scholars and Wealthy Class to return their lands. "

Jiang Li was clear about this situation. The reason the Scholars and Wealthy Classes were powerful was because many of the citizens attached themselves to them and became their tenants. Moreover, these people were not within the scope of the imperial government's land tax collection, which greatly reduced the amount of tax collected by the imperial government.

Yang Lin immediately thought of Jiang Li's actions. On the surface, it looked like he was increasing the amount of taxes levied for the imperial government, but in reality, it was a tenants' liberation, liberating all these wealthy and powerful citizens from the Scholars. But to do so, would it be equivalent to offending the Scholars and Wealthy Class once again, and this time, would it be fair? Yang Lin thought for a while, then said to Jiang Li:

"Your idea is very good. The Emperor will certainly support it. As for those tenants who originally had no land and are attached to Scholars or Wealthy Classes, they should be registered by the imperial government. Although they do not have land and are not allowed to pay taxes, they can still serve as servants. Although they continued to rent Scholars's and Wealthy Class land, they were still citizens of the Emperor and not servants of the Scholars and Wealthy Class. If we do this, the Scholars and Wealthy Classes will definitely attack us. Therefore, we will only try to do so in Guangyang City and see what happens next. "

"Lord General is right, I will go and issue the notice now." Seeing that Yang Lin was supporting him, Jiang Li became even more confident. The imperial government had forcefully allocated land taxes and labour. Previously, it was all on the farmers, so if the farmers shared some of the money, the farming would be much lighter. He immediately stood up and went to post his notice.

After sending off the Lord of Guang Yang Tai Shou Jiang Li, Yang Lin called Liang Tian and Dong Jian over. Since they had calmed down, Yang Lin did not send them to the Valley of Dai County, so they were truly bored. Seeing Yang Lin looking for the two, they thought that he was going to send them out to battle again, so they ran over happily.

"Lord General, we are really bored. It's time for us to go out and do some activities."

"Hehe …" I really want to let you do your activities. "

Yang Lin laughed and looked at the two of them with a pleased expression. These two bandits were different from the other high-ranking officers. They were slightly weaker in terms of offense, but they were good at doing covert jobs. Ever since he met them, Yang Lin admired their abilities, and now, they could be of use to him.

"My two brothers, your exorcism did very well last year. I am very happy. However, doing exorcism was indeed a waste. I have a huge matter that I want to pass on to you all. I don't know if you dare to accept it or not. "

"What big matter is it that you don't dare to accept?" We never even frowned when it came to getting us into the fray. "

Hearing that there was something big, Liang Tian immediately said. Although they were not as tall and sturdy as the other Generals, their martial arts were also extraordinary, and they never hesitated to charge into battle. Otherwise, Yang Lin would not have raised both of them to become like this.

"Hehe …" Look at how many powerful generals we have right now. "However, this is an extraordinary matter. It is more important than a charge."

"Oh …" Please give your instructions, Lord General. "

Seeing Liang Tian and Dong Jian's anxious expressions, Yang Lin nodded in satisfaction. After passing the one year's worth of tests, Liang Tian and Dong Jian were still very loyal to him. They had strong martial arts skills and were very smart and nimble, they were indeed the best person for him to do such a thing. He laughed and then spoke to Liang Tian and Dong Jian.

"I'm going to set up an intelligence agency, which you two will be in charge of. The first step in your work is to search every county in the country, and then every county for intelligence agents to open inns, hotels, casinos, brothels, and so on. In addition to earning money, the most important thing was to collect information and grasp the development of every county. "Be careful, pick people who do not know each other. You are only leading from behind the scenes and report the information to me. Your headquarters is in Guangyang."

"In the Lord General, finding personnel and gathering information is not difficult, but how do we send this information back? The world is so big, like the Yizhou, the State of Jiao, the Liang Zhou and other places. A round trip would allow one to ride a fast horse, but it would take at least one or two months. Furthermore, with so many horses rushing towards the Youzhou every day, wouldn't they be able to arouse suspicion? "

Liang Tian, Dong Jian immediately understood that this was indeed a major event, and a huge one at that. As bandits, they naturally knew how to collect information, and they also knew that sending information had to be kept a secret. However, the world was too big. A month later, the information would be sent back. Would there still be any use for it?
