One thousand one hundred and twenty-five revenge for Lu Kai
A few days later, news of Lu Kai's death, the destruction of Buwei County and the chaos in Yongchang County reached Dianchi Lake.
After Le Jin learned about it, he sighed and felt a little sad about this matter.
He felt that Lu Kai was strictly not guilty and should not die, but what he said about this matter did not count, but what Fa Zheng said was the only way, he had no choice.
Fa Zheng was very happy with this matter and felt that he had completed the task and could allow the Wei army to use this excuse to send troops to attack Yongchang County.
"Okay, in this way, our army will have the excuse to wipe out the entire Yongchang County. General, you can send troops. The reason is to avenge Lu Kai, which is legitimate."
Fazheng calculates everything accurately, and there is no flaw in all military operations or something that can make people say anything.
It can only be said that in various senses, Mr. Guo's interests conflict with the interests of local forces, and they are still irreconcilable.
Since this is the case, I can only ask local forces to die a little to satisfy Mr. Guo’s interests.
Now that the goal has been reached, you can send troops.
Before sending troops, Le Jin asked Fa Zheng.
"In addition to a small number of Han people, Yongchang County also has a large number of tribal populations such as Min, Pu, Jiuliao, Nupu, Yuyue, and Sindu. These people are at least one million. How do you plan to deal with it?"
Fa Zheng smiled.
"How Zhang Wenyuan deals with Shanyue, the general can deal with these people. Zhang Wenyuan had only 60,000 soldiers and 80,000 soldiers. Zhang Wenyuan could pacify the huge Yangzhou. Can the general not even take over a mere Yongchang County?"
Fa Zheng said this, which really made Le Jin unhappy.
The relationship between Le Jin and Zhang Liao has never been very good.
Zhang Liao, the former enemy, was later surrendered to Guo Peng, which made many people unhappy that the surrendered general who later surrendered to such a high position in the Guo Wei regime.
But I can't help it, I am indeed capable.
He wins one battle and wins the other, and has a strong ability to command troops. Guo Peng admires him very much, gives him a high status and power, allows him to stand on his own and give him full trust.
Now among the generals of the Wei army, the highest status is naturally the relative general Cao Ren. This second person is afraid that even Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun cannot rank second because of insufficient military achievements.
Le Jin thought he had been following Guo Peng for a longer time. When Guo Peng was just the governor of Qingzhou, he defected to Guo Peng and fought all the way.
As a result, Zhang Liao lived there later.
He was not Yu Jin, and he couldn't swallow this, and he was very upset.
Fa Zheng's statement really made Le Jin think that he wanted to compete with Zhang Liao. He was no longer obsessed with Lu Kai's affairs, and his mind was full of duels with Zhang Liao.
"If you don't burn the entire Yongchang County, Le's military career will be in vain!"
Le Jin seemed to have seen the burning Yongchang County.
"No, there are so many valuable places in Yongchang County, so you can burn everything!"
Fa Zheng hurriedly stopped him.
Yongchang County is very wealthy and rich in gold, gem and iron ore. The land is fertile. It is recorded that the bamboo joints growing here are ten feet high, which shows how fertile the land here is.
Moreover, the textile industry and printing and dyeing industry here are also quite developed, and the manufacturing level of bronze ware is also quite high. In addition, due to its unique geographical advantages, the mountains of Ailao Country are filled with various rare treasures, which can be said to be full of wealth.
Such a wealthy county in the border area is qualified to make Mr. Guo covet it. Moreover, the development level of more than one million people living in places must be much better than that of the other three counties, and there are not so many places for fire.
If there are really hot places, there are mostly some copycats, some guys who would rather die than surrender than surrender to the Wei government, and they should have been persecuted by the Wei army.
Those who do not surrender will naturally be wiped out by the fire.
The Wei army went south all the way, and the fierce turbulent oil tanks that had been reserved for many years still have about four-fifths of the reserves, and the reserves are very abundant.
On March 19, 2018, Yende, Le Jin and Fa Zheng led 20,000 troops to Yunnan County in Yongchang County.
They easily took down Yunnan County, killed a group of people who were in chaos in Yunnan County, destroyed some military facilities around Yunnan County, gained a foothold in Yongchang County, and then divided their troops to capture Yeyu County and Xielong County.
On March 23, Xielong County was defeated, and the Wei army began to further attack Bonan County. Once Bonan County was captured, it would be able to advance to Wei County.
On March 25, Yeyu County was defeated, and the Wei army along the way would continue to attack Bisu County and Lingtang County, and then march towards Buwei County.
The two armies will meet in Buwei County.
Basically, after conquering Buwei County, the Han people's sphere of influence in Yongchang County had been obtained, and the rest were the tribal settlements of foreigners living in Yongchang County.
Having a certain civilization, a certain social order and social strata, having rulers and ruled people, cooperating and trading with Han forces around Buwei County, sometimes there will be some small-scale conflicts and other things.
For this type of tribe, the Wei Empire had already figured out a set of effective methods.
Defeat, destroy the upper class, leave the lower class, men act as coolies, women are incorporated into the Han people as a whole, and increase the population, so assimilate them and disappear into the long river of history.
Whether it is the Southern Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qiang people, Wuwan people, Goguli, Sanhan from Liaodong, etc., they were all assimilated by the Wei Empire in this way.
It can not only increase the population, but also increase social construction, allowing the Wei Empire's large-scale projects to have a large amount of sufficient labor and the prices are extremely low, so there is no need to worry about civil unrest caused by excessive use.
Because they were not used at all by the people of Wei, but by war slaves.
Since I knew that there were more than one million foreigners hidden here, Guo was very happy and felt that the southern middle section of the Shu Dao artery also had labor force that could be used on a large scale, and the development and construction of the southern middle will also be well used in the future.
So no matter from which perspective, Yongchang County must be taken down.
Bonan County, Bisu County, and Litang County are already in chaos.
The local county magistrate and government officials fled to death. The county town was either occupied or empty. The Wei army occupied the county town without much effort, and then defeated the thieves who occupied the county town and swept the city on a large scale.
After this wave of sweeping, the rebellious forces around these counties were almost destroyed. The rebels that had just gathered and robbed everywhere were no match for the Wei army at all.
However, the local Han people regarded the Wei army as their life-saving benefactors and reunited around the Wei army, which quickly gained the support and support of the local Han people.
At the end of March, Le Jin led his troops to Buwei County, defeated more than 10,000 rebel soldiers from Yongchang County twenty miles north of Buwei County, beheaded 3,000, captured the enemy chief, and executed them, and then advanced to Buwei County.
Unfortunately, Buwei County was burned, killed and looted, and it had become ruins. Le Jinshen felt a pity and then continued to march and further expelled the rebel thieves of all races after Lu Kai's death.
In the west and south of Yongchang County, a large number of foreign populations live.
For example, tribes such as Min, Pu, Jiuliao, Nupu, and Yuyue, and some of the population from the Du Kingdom also live in the southern part of Yongchang County, with a population ranging from tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
Most of these places are deep mountains and old forests, and are the settlements of these foreign populations.
They have their own civilization and production. In peacetime, they will use their own specialties to trade with the Han people around Buwei County, and will also pay a certain amount of tribute to seek peace.
However, during the war, everyone turned into bandits and robbed everywhere, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil.
