By the time Yang Lin entered the Wei Na Yan Cheng, the battles in the city had almost finished. Only a small portion of the areas still had battles. The citizens of Gaoguanli had their doors shut tight, there were almost no pedestrians on the street, only behind the doors and windows, pairs of terrified eyes quietly observing everything.
The Gaoguanli Palace was still burning, the flames that shot to the sky burning the clouds red. Yang Lin could not help but frown and blame this Minister of State Li Kuan secretly in his heart. They wanted to create chaos, so why not set the palace on fire?
"Reporting..." When the great army of the Lord General entered the city, both the King Koguryo and the Second Prince were killed by random soldiers. It was unknown who killed them. The Gaoguanli Palace was completely destroyed, and all the members of the royal family were buried in the sea of fire. " Just then, Bu Yi, who had entered the city first, walked over with a few people and reported to Yang Lin.
Yang Lin nodded, and immediately understood in his heart. No wonder Li Kuan wanted to burn the palace. He was cutting the grass and removing the roots, so that the royal family wouldn't come to take revenge on his Li Family in the future. Even if the King Koguryo s were killed, it was probably because of this Minister of State.
Bu Yi walked over and excitedly introduced him to Yang Lin: "Lord General, this is Minister of State Li Kuan. He's the one who brought people to burn down Gaoguanli's palace. This is the young master of the Minister of State, Li Yuan, he was the one who attacked the palace, and this is the commander of the Dongjiang army, Li Ping.
"Greetings Lord General." A few of them kneeled down and bowed respectfully to Yang Lin. Minister of State Li Kuan raised his head and said solemnly: "Li Kuan and his family vow to follow Lord General until death, to go through fire and water for Lord General.
"Get up." Yang Lin immediately jumped down from his horse and pulled Li Kuan along. When they stood up, he said solemnly: "The Li family is very righteous, they have rendered a great service to the imperial army in seizing Wei Na Yan Cheng.
Looking at Li Kuan, he felt a little awkward in his heart. For the safety of his clan, he had actually annihilated the whole family. He was simply too scheming, and had to be careful in the future. He turned his head and looked at Li Na, only to see that this young officer had several heroic skills, and he shouted out loudly: "Li Na, listen up!"
"This lowly general is here!" Li Na jumped in shock, as he habitually straightened his body and replied loudly. His clan's decision was correct. Following the official army of the Darky Court, might be better than following the official army of the King Koguryo.
"This general ordered you to become the commander of the army and horses of the Xishan. Immediately gather all the soldiers of the Xishan and cooperate with the imperial government to take down the internal city!" Yang Lin had already planned this long ago, he was prepared to give them another great contribution to the Li family.
"Yes sir!" Sure enough, Li Na's eyes lit up, he replied loudly and turned, bringing his personal guards with him. The Gauzeli soldier s under Li Na immediately understood. Although the Koguchi royal family was over, they were still part of the large clan of the Gaoguanli, so they hurriedly followed Li Na.
With regards to Yang Lin's orders, even the experienced Li Kuan was overjoyed. The Wei Na Yan Cheng had already been taken down, so how could the defenses of the inner city resist against it? Even if the main general did not surrender, the soldiers would probably not have any morale.
"Mr. Li Kuan, according to the orders of the imperial government, Xishan Province will be changed to Xishan County. I would like to invite you to be the Surveillance History s to help the Han army restore spring cultivation in Xishan County. In order to tie the Li family onto their chariots, Yang Lin continued to give them sweets.
From Yang Lin's words, Li Kuan immediately understood that the imperial government would not allow any more Gaoguanli s to exist. Li Kuan also knew that the Surveillance History was a small and important position, if he wanted to achieve something, he would have to rely on himself. He quickly stepped forward and said: "I am willing to work for the Lord General!"
"Lord General, this is the intelligence report that was just delivered." Zhang Banxian suddenly barged into Yang Lin's tent. Her expression was somewhat solemn as he handed a piece of spongy silk to Yang Lin and found a place to sit down. She said leisurely: "Lord General, the thing you're worried about finally happened."
The content of the spongy silk was a bit long. Yang Lin hurriedly swept his eyes over them, but he managed to catch onto a few important points, one was that the imperial government had started to practice the state rule, and two was that the imperial government had ordered him to pacify Zhang Ju and his rebellion before the end of the year. Three was that Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were respectively appointed as the taiwai and the Northeast China, and four was Gong Lin and Gong Yi were respectively appointed as the Pingyuan County and the Tung Lai County.
"Sigh …" What should come will eventually come! " Yang Lin sighed and shook his head helplessly. The wheels of history did not change their trajectory because of Yang Lin's torture. Yang Lin couldn't help but be slightly worried in his heart. Could it be that history was truly irreversible?
"Lord General, right now, our own cities have already surrendered, and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, they have also forced their way into the Western Gorge, White Mountain's Gaoguanli army, shouldn't we make a trip back to Guangyang and calm Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun's rebellion?" Zhang Banxian thought for a while, then raised her head and asked.
"Don't worry!" We just got the Gaoguanli, so we can't leave so quickly. " Yang Lin shook his head, and said indifferently: "Didn't Your Majesty give us three months of time? We deserve to use this time to stabilize the order in the Gaoguanli and resume its production. "
"But, if we have three months of time, Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan, I don't know what kind of demon they might come up with." The Zhang Banxian became a little anxious and stood up immediately. She said excitedly, "Lord General, I have a bad premonition that this time, the final victor of the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun will be Liu Bei!"
"To tell you the truth, I also feel that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellion has provided a stage for them." Yang Lin laughed, and waved for Zhang Banxian to sit down: "However, we cannot give up our hard work because of these two people. We sacrificed a lot of our soldiers to fight the Gaoguanli, so we cannot give up so easily. As for Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan, and even Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun, they were definitely only an internal problem, in three months time, they would not be able to turn the tables! We'll deal with them after three months. "
Yang Lin did not want to learn the policy of having to settle down outside the city gates, his priority right now was to stabilize the Gaoguanli. As long as one held the Gaoguanli firmly in their hands, they would be able to control all of the Fu Yu, Sha Wo, Cook Islands, Uke, He Lou, Mo He, Morvo, and the other eastern tribes along the borders of the North Sea, and from there, control the entire Pirate!
"Lord General, if you want to solve the problem of Gaoguanli, I'm afraid it won't be a one-day affair. This time when we attacked the Gaoguanli, we captured more than 400,000 Gauzeli soldier s. Adding on the troops that we collected, including Fu Yu, Sha Wu, Morvo, Dong Su and Triple Korea, our total number exceeded more than 600,000! " Zhang Banxian frowned and said worriedly: "If we let them go home, it will affect our management of these places. But if we don't let them go home, how are we to support them?"
"Support them?" Yang Lin laughed, shook his head and said: "I have never prepared to support them!"
"Ah …" Could it be that Lord General is going to … " The Zhang Banxian was shocked, and quickly moved to wipe her neck.
"Hahaha …" Yang Lin laughed and waved his hand. "Mr. Zhang Ling, am I that cruel?"
"Then Lord General's meaning is …" Zhang Banxian looked at Yang Lin strangely and muttered.
Yang Lin stood up, walked to the map, and pointed at the islands along the shore: "Mr. Zhang Ling, have you forgotten our Pearl Island Chain strategy? "I plan to select some of these tall and strong soldiers, and then send the rest to these islands. I want them to conquer these islands for us, and then produce food for us there!"
"But, if it's all these Tribal soldiers, then isn't it also to conquer those islands for them?" Zhang Banxian looked at Yang Lin and asked puzzledly: "As time passes, they will establish their own tribes on those islands. Aren't we going to do it for nothing?"
"Hehe …" "Would I do such a stupid thing?" Yang Lin laughed and then said seriously: "I plan to order Gong Lin to send over the Qingzhou's refugees and even the common people. At the same time, I plan to order Guang Yang, the Liaodong and other places to send over the refugees and landless farmers as well. Then, I plan to mix the tribes into a group of Wasteland soldier and send them to Sa Wu, Cook Islands, Hu Lou, Hu He, Morvo, Dong Su, the counties of Gaoguanli, and the islands of Pirate."
Two months later, a total of more than three hundred thousand young and strong people from the Qingzhou, Guangyang, Liaodong and the other places all arrived at the corydalis radix. At the same time, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Pan Feng, along with the captives and the gathered Tribal soldiers all arrived at the corydalis radix. In a short moment, the entire mountain range was filled with tents.
After Yang Lin arrived at the corydalis radix, he immediately summoned the main generals and strategists to his tent to discuss the strategy for the next stage of the mission. This was the first meeting since the Gaoguanli was pacified. The main focus was to maintain the stability of the conquering tribes and start a new round of conquest war.
As he did not report the matter of conquering the tribe to the imperial government, Yang Lin could only remember the merits of the soldiers in the war for the sake of conquering Yu, Triple Korea, Sa Wu, Morvo, Dong Su, Gaoguanli, and so on. After that, Yang Lin began to assign the missions for the next stage.
"For the sake of unity of command, I have decided to combine the six counties of Tou Yu, the five counties of Gaoguanli, the six counties of Viking Island, the three counties of East and West Viking Island, Sa Han, Ku Pi, Uke, Su Luo, He, Morvo, Yue Lang and Triple Korea into a total of twenty-four counties of Tou Yu and six counties of Viking Island. I decided that Pan Feng would be the Commander, Yu She would be the Inspector General, Xun Yu would be the Chief of Staff, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Huang Zhong would be the Company Leader, and at the same time, she would also be equipped with a few Ombudsman and a few staff officers. Hokkaido and North Sea Fleet also had Commander, Inspector General, and Chief of Staff. They were equipped with several commanders, Ombudsman, and staff officers. Your mission is to stabilize the six counties of Pirate, the six counties of Uke, and the six counties of, and to restore agricultural production in each county within a year. "
