Three days later, the main force led by Shi Zhuang, Tu Lichun, Chen Congxing and others caught up with Li Ze's migratory army. Just as Hu Yi, which is now Li De, said, there was no prisoner, but there were quite a lot of spoils.

"Young Master, I got less than 300 war horses, but I got more than a thousand sets of armor." Shi Zhuang was quite regretful, "They were all good horses, but unfortunately most of them were burned to death in the city."

During the Battle of Dezhou, Heng Haijun, who had the opportunity to rush out of the city, was attacked by premeditated by Shi Zhuang, Tu Lichun and others at the Xicheng Gate. They were still shocked and almost did not make any waves and were wiped out. None of them survived, including Zhu Yannian and Aisong.

The fire burned for a whole day and a night, and finally it was a heavy rain that put out the remaining fire. However, at this time, the city of Dezhou no longer existed. Even the city walls outside were almost burned and most of the places had collapsed. Under such a raging fire, the Henghai Army in the city that had not escaped were all buried in the sea of ​​fire, and a strange smell floated in the ruins.

The spoils still have to be cleaned up, especially things like armor are exactly what Li Ze lacks. Many armors were deformed by the fire, but even a piece of scrap iron had the value of recycling. In addition, many dead people were not burned to death, but were smoked to death by the fire and scorched to the high temperature. The armor on their bodies was pretty good.

It took Wuyi Army a full day to pack up these things.

When they caught up with Li Ze, Li Ze's feet had already stepped on the land of Xindu.

"I've seen the young master." Sun Lei welcomed the dusty Li Ze into the county magistrate of Xindu. During the war, the county magistrate was extremely damaged and is still under renovation. The former shopkeeper of Yixingtang was temporarily appointed by Li Ze as the county magistrate of Xindu.

"How are the preparations done?" Li Ze asked directly. This migratory army has now raised more than 100,000 people, and the entire Dezhou has been almost wiped out by Li Ze. Such a huge resettlement task is also a huge test for the entire Wuyi.

"We started to prepare since we received the order from the young master." Sun Lei said: "Xindu was first breached by the sea, and the losses were heavy. Many families broke through the doors, especially in the county town, and there were only one ten or more people left. We have cleared the houses in the city, and we can place more than 10,000 people in the city. In addition, a large number of shacks were built around the county town, and 10,000 to 20,000 people could be temporarily placed. Xin was powerless to do anything else."

"It's already great to be able to achieve this level in such a short time." Li Ze nodded with satisfaction and said: "We sell the houses in the city to rich people in Texas. I believe they are willing to pay for money to live in the city. As for those who can't afford to buy a house, they should first live in the shack outside the city and then slowly evacuate them step by step."

"Sell the house?" Sun Lei was a little stunned.

"Of course, those ownerless houses are all taken over by the government. The city is safer than outside. I think the rich people who migrated this time will be very happy to take out the money. The houses are divided into grades and auctioned, and those with the higher prices will be paid." Li Ze said.

"I understand." Sun Lei nodded.

“Is there enough food?”

"Mr. Wang Mingyi raised a large amount of food. If it was just in the form of porridge, the letter could allow about 20,000 people to be placed in a month," said Sun Lei.

"It's almost done, these Texas are still carrying food themselves! They can last for one to two months."

"Do you want to collect their food too, just like the policy in Wuyi?" Sun Lei asked.

Li Ze waved his hand: "These Texas people just came and were not familiar with the situation here. The most important thing now is to let them live here with peace of mind and settle down. At this time, using our method of governing Wuyi, there will be chaos. Let's talk about everything settled."

"I understand, young master."

"Sun Lei, there are many things you have to do next. One is to resettle 20,000 people, the second is to clean up and measure the land in Xindu County, and the third is to re-register the population of Xindu and re-create households. These newly migrant people will become the people of Xindu from now on. This is the top priority." Li Ze looked at Sun Lei and said: "There will inevitably conflict and friction with the locals. Especially many Xindu people are dead at the hands of Dezhou people. Some things should be prevented before they happen. Pay special attention to this issue when resettling."

"Yes, young master." Sun Lei nodded repeatedly: "The people who fled to Wuyi are now coming back in batches. Yixing Society has taken root among them. With the help of Yixing Society backbones, I believe that the local form will be stabilized soon."

"We must let the Yixing Society organization take root in Xindu." Li Ze nodded with satisfaction, "With their help, you will save a lot of effort in governing Xindu."

"Young Master, I have never been an official, and I am worried that I can't do it well." Sun Lei said with some concern: "If the young master has a suitable candidate, why don't I return to Yixingtang? I am familiar with the business."

Li Ze laughed: "It's not difficult to be an official. You just need to do one thing well, that is, let the people under your rule eat full, dress warmly, and live and work in peace and contentment, be considered a good official. You should do it first, maybe you can do better than others!"

"Young master, I will do my best!" Sun Lei still looked anxious.

Li Ze turned to look at another person beside Sun Lei and smiled and said, "I remember you are Ma Laoliu and the name is Ma Mingtao, right? You are now the Xindu County Captain."

Ma Laoliu Ma Mingtao did not expect that Li Ze would recognize him, and he had never seen Li Ze several times. He immediately stepped forward excitedly and bowed: "Young Master, it's Ma Mingtao."

"You are a kind person." Li Ze patted his shoulder: "Yang Kai is thinking about you very much. This time you can become the county magistrate of Xindu, but he strongly recommends it. Now Xindu is in a complicated situation, so you have to work hard."

"Don't worry, young master, even if Ma Laoliu stays asleep, he will definitely keep Xin safe." Ma Laoliu nodded repeatedly.

Ma Laoliu is also a typical time to operate. He was originally just an ordinary constable in Wuyi. Because Yang Kai showed some kindness when he was in trouble, his current rewards were beyond his imagination. In less than a year, he climbed all the way to the position of county magistrate in a county.

After Xindu placed 20,000 people, the remaining people continued to move towards Wuyi. After entering Wuyi, the resettlement work became smoother. In Wuyi, Yixing Society had already penetrated into four towns and eight miles, and Yang Kai even assigned many migrant people to be placed in each township, village and each village, and the number of people was getting smaller and smaller. By the time he arrived at Wuyi County, there were about 50,000 left in this migrant army.

For Li Ze, this is still a huge army. Obviously, Wuyi alone cannot digest so many people. Li Ze decided to place about 20,000 people inside and outside Wuyi County, and the rest were prepared to blame Wang Mingyi.

He had kept his old nest for Cao Xin, so he should have paid for it for granted.

Standing on the newly renovated city of Wuyi and looking at the rows of adobe houses being built in the city, Li Ze was very satisfied with Yang Kai.

The vacant land in Wuyi City basically no longer exists. Instead, rows of adobe houses are replaced by rows of adobe houses. Although they are only covered with some thatch, they are much better than shacks. Even outside the city, such adobe houses are also being built on a large scale. Originally, there were only more than 2,000 households in Wuyi, but now, it is roughly estimated that the entire Wuyi will have more than 5,000 households.

"Yang Kai, you are becoming more and more capable!" Li Ze said to Yang Kai, who had obviously gained a lot of weight around him, and he sincerely praised him.

"It's all the young master who teaches well. Even if you follow the young master, even if you are a pig, you will become smarter." Yang Kai, who became capable, had also become more skilled in flattering Li Zema. He bent down and was not afraid of Shi Zhuang, Tu Lichun and others beside Li Ze's side with strange eyes and said in a flattering manner.

He wears everything but does not wear flattery. Even though he knows that Yang Kai is deliberately welcomed, Li Ze is still very happy.

"When you can register and select the migrant people when you place them, you will be very immense in Wuyi. This thought alone will be very impressive. When these people are settled down, these five thousand young and strong can be used by me and become our source of soldiers and wealth. You have put a lot of effort into this matter, right?"

"Since they were taken to Wuyi, the officials were planning this matter. Five thousand young and strong, they can't let it go. If they want them to serve the young master with peace of mind, they must of course settle their families." Yang Kai said: "As for those who are free from worries, or those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, let the eldest prince Wang go and settle them!"

"You are really petty, Wang Mingyi will curse you." Li Ze laughed. Yang Kai is really vengeful. Wang Mingyi abandoned Yang Kai when Li Che came to the door earlier, but now Yang Kai takes revenge without hesitation.

Yang Kai smiled a few times and said, "Young Master, I want to ask you for something."

"Say!" Li Ze said.

"The lower official wants to resign from his position as the magistrate of Wuyi County." Yang Kai said.

"Hmm?" Li Ze looked at Yang Kai strangely. This is an official fan. Wuyi is no longer as good as Wuyi before. When these thousands of households are completely digested, Wuyi will go to the county without fail. "What do you want to do?"

"Xiaguan wants to devote himself to the affairs of Yixing Society." Yang Kai said enthusiastically: "Xiaguan is the director-general of Yixing Society. Now the scale of Yixing Society is getting bigger and bigger. Not only Wuyi, but also Xindu, but next Shiyi. Xiaguan wants to do a good job in Yixing Society."

Li Ze looked at Yang Kai in surprise. This guy has really become smarter. To be honest, Yixing Society will be a sharp knife for his future governance. Yang Kai can keenly discover the role of Yixing Society and be determined to abandon the serious position of the Order of a County, which shows that he has indeed made progress.

"I will think about this matter first. You should do the resettlement task this time. In addition, I want to find a suitable Wuyi County Magistrate not to be able to accomplish overnight, right?"

"Yes, young master, the lower official knows that the lower official will definitely do the things in front of him." He listened to Li Ze's tone, and Yang Kai knew that this matter had become eighty or ninety percent.
Chapter completed!
