Wandu Mountain City and Inner City are only about ten or twenty miles apart. To put it bluntly, if Wandu Mountain City farts, Inner City can hear it.
No matter which city has a problem, the other city must be on guard.
It is better to win both at the same time. Although it is risky, it is said that wealth can be obtained through danger. In war, sometimes it is necessary to take risks.
I have to say that using the command to change defenses to defeat a city is an excuse that has been used a lot, and everyone has gained a lot of experience.
Usually Zhu Hongfang goes in to meet someone, and then behaves like he completely obeys the other person's instructions.
As long as it is Li Sa, he must be very concerned about the situation in the royal city. If he leaks a little bit, the other party's favorability will increase.
Moreover, the army near the city will be taken over. Of course, it is not so much taken over as it is infiltrated.
Because of the expedition to Yiqiu and the suppression of rebellion in the royal city, almost every city's military strength had been mobilized.
Sure enough, when everything was settled, Zhu Hongfang turned his back and took down Lasa, and then began to gather the scholar-bureaucrats and submit their names.
Combining the situation of Tianshousi, we can analyze which families have no sense of belonging to Goguryeo and which families are die-hard members of Goguryeo.
However, something happened on Zhu Hongfang's side. As expected of the capital, the general who infiltrated directly started a fight with the city guards.
Fortunately, the soldiers under Yang Qian's command were all elites, while the soldiers on the other side were all trash. Who made all the elites transferred away?
It wasn't long before they were suppressed.
After taking all the cities under control, Ran Jing only had one hundred thousand troops left under his command.
Among the 100,000 troops, the Xuanjia Army still maintains a combat strength of 10,000. It can be said that the main force has not been affected at all.
"Hello, hello, General Ran, I, I am Zhu Hongfang."
Ran Jing, who was in Jiashi City, frowned and asked, "Why are you so panicked? Have the two capitals been occupied?"
"Occupied, occupied, but..."
Zhu Hongfang almost cried, he never expected that such a thing would happen.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Ran Jing's heart skipped a beat.
Zhu Hongfang said with a mournful face, "Two, two families ran away under the cover of the defenders. They ran away."
"Bang!"
Ran Jing slapped the desk hard with his palm, and kept walking around with the phone in hand, his chest heaving up and down, and his face as gloomy as water.
There is only one last hard nut left. As long as Heshenggu City is taken care of, the entire Goguryeo is almost at your fingertips. I didn't expect that something like this would happen at this juncture.
"Contact everyone immediately to see which direction the two families are running. If you don't go to Heshenggu City, it's okay. Once you go, we will start a war immediately."
"promise!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhu Hongfang immediately started to contact each city.
At this time, in Wandu Mountain Castle, the coal stove had not yet been transported, the temperature was very low, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He didn't dare to delay. After the cities started to contact each other and made phone calls, he also specifically informed that if anyone similar to the family came over, they must be detained immediately.
Ran Jing also started to make calls, feeling very anxious.
"Hello."
"Where is your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty is taking a medicinal bath."
Important calls are usually made to Yang Qian's room, but he doesn't guard it every day. He has three female Tianshou Division members answer the phone in three shifts, and they must not miss any call.
"Hurry up and get your Majesty to answer the phone. I have something important to report."
"General Ran, this is really important military information. If you interrupt your training now, I'm afraid..."
Ran Jing almost roared, "Hurry up, I'll take the responsibility if something happens."
"promise!"
The Tianshou Department staff felt that the matter was not simple, so they immediately walked out of the room, came to the wooden barrel where they were being beaten, and said respectfully.
"Your Majesty, General Ran has important military information."
"Huh~~~~~!"
"Suck~~~~~!"
"Huh~~~~~!"
"Suck~~~~~!"
Yang Qian's rhythmic breathing, in conjunction with his movements, made his body's progress almost leap by leaps and bounds.
After a dozen breaths, he adjusted his breath and said calmly, "Did he say what it was?"
"without!"
Yang Qian stood up immediately, green liquid flowing down his body, and without caring about his body, he strode towards the room where the phone was placed.
Although Yi Lingxue and Ao Ying didn't know what was going on, they rushed in quickly with towels.
When Yang Qian answered the phone, the two of them began to help him wipe it off in a slow and orderly manner.
The life of aristocrats is intoxicating, and it is not without reason.
"Hey, there are only a few cities left, I hope you can bring me good news."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. When we captured Wandu Mountain Castle, we were run away by two families. During the pursuit, the wind and snow increased and we lost the pursuit."
Yang Qian frowned deeply. This feeling of being uncontrollable was so annoying.
"How did you handle it?"
"I asked Zhu Hongfang to contact people in all nearby cities to see if he has been caught."
“Sometimes it’s too late to make amends, and if you lose the opportunity, you lose.”
"The investigation will continue, but we will immediately unite all the nearby cities to blockade Heshenggu City, mobilize warships from Dahang, Bobiwugu, and mobilize some troops from Wuchonghebei. They can be used as surprise troops to make some preparations for siege.
"Recruit a group of Goguryeo soldiers, control their families, and let them go first when attacking the city."
"promise!"
Yang Qian said with some regret, "Ran Jing, Goguryeo is about to be captured by us. At this critical moment, I hope you can really make up for it."
"After all, it is the general trend for many scholar-officials to surrender, but if they see that we are weak, they will also have thoughts of rebellion."
"If I kill all the scholar-bureaucrats, the governance of Goguryeo will be delayed for at least five years. I can't afford to wait for five years."
"Whoever makes me wait for five years, I will chop him with fifty thousand knives, do you understand?"
Ran Jing was stunned and immediately said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will serve you to the death."
"If something cannot be done, remember, don't lose your soldiers in vain, keep the green hills and don't worry about having no firewood. I will come if necessary."
"promise!"
Ran Jing was not afraid, but felt a sense of security. As long as you came over, a mere Heshenggu City would be within reach.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Qian frowned.
Yi Lingxue put on Yang Qian's clothes silently. She was a mature woman and naturally knew what to ask and what not to ask.
But Ao Ying was young after all, so when she became curious, she couldn't help but ask immediately.
"Your Majesty, is there any trouble?"
Yang Qian glanced at her and took a deep breath. His mind was full of lawsuits, and the unexpected situation had little impact on the entire plan.
But it has a huge impact on the finishing work later. If it is not done well, all the previous things will be in vain.
Regardless of whether it is a city problem, as long as Heshenggu City resists fiercely, if word spreads, there is no telling what chain reaction there will be.
Yang Gan was afraid of the chain reaction, because it was uncontrollable, uncontrollable, and unknown, which gave him an instinctive sense of fear and confusion, and more importantly, discomfort.
Looking at Ao Ying's beautiful, white, young woman's face, Yang Qian pushed her down and said unhappily.
"I'm very angry right now, help me!"
Suddenly there was the sound of drinking drinks.
With the help of the phone, Ran Jing contacted Wu Gaolang directly and mobilized five warships, five by boat, to dock near Dahang.
As long as they receive the order, three thousand soldiers will go north as a surprise force.
Zhu Hongfang and Ran Jing began to increase their naturalization training.
Some policies that were planned for Goguryeo to be integrated into the Xia Kingdom in the future had to be implemented in advance, and a large number of reserve officials began to be continuously transported from Yuntong County.
There were also some common people from Guizhou who came with them. These were people who did not do well in the local area and rented land fairly well.
The governor's office promised them that as long as they settled in Goguryeo, their generation would be able to get double the share of leased land stipulated by themselves.
As a result, more people will sign up.
Some people also suggested that giving a share of leased land would be better than tax exemption for a few years, but this decision was quickly overturned by Yang Gan.
Yang Qian has always had an iron rule, that is, no tax exemption will be given to anyone unless there is a catastrophic disaster.
In Yang Gan's territory, there is only one kind of person who can be exempted from taxes, and that is the dead.
In order to speed up the progress, such policies began to be bombarded continuously. If the Goguryeo people were allowed to integrate independently, haha, it would be impossible without decades of effort.
If he asked his officials to add the common people to Guizhou, Yang Qian would not believe that they would not be able to integrate in a few or more years.
Some policies have also begun to be implemented. What policies? Very simple.
Intermarriage between Fuyu people and Central Plains people is strongly encouraged, as is intermarriage between local Fuyu people and newly arrived Central Plains people.
Everyone is strongly encouraged to learn the Central Plains dialect, learn Central Plains customs, and celebrate Central Plains festivals.
As long as you meet any of the regulations, you will be rewarded, such as one or two iron farm tools.
For example, if you do two or three things, you can give 30% of the land lease share.
For example, those who have performed well for a long time and persuaded others to speed up the integration of Goguryeo will be directly given to the cattle.
Yang Gan had observed Goguryeo for a long time. Ordinary people didn't even have cows. Even the families of scholar-bureaucrats had very few cows.
Relying entirely on manpower to farm? Isn't this just playing the piano randomly? How much manpower does it have? To achieve high grain yield, seeds, fertility, and tools are all indispensable. Even if everything is prepared, it still depends on God’s will.
Of course, some technologies cannot be put out until everything is settled.
As a result, the entire Goguryeo actually exuded a vitality that had not been seen for a long time.
Many people began to learn the Central Plains language, even people from small tribes. As long as they support the Xia Kingdom, they may not see the blue sky one day.
In fact, even though Yang Gan wants people from these small tribes to serve as slaves, their lives here are not good.
When the Fuyu people oppressed them, they were almost more excessive than Yang Gan's policies. Many of Yang Gan's decrees targeting small tribes were clearly stated.
Some people died, but not completely...
