Qincheng Prefecture.

The prefectural government office.

Zhao Shuisheng was stunned when he saw the mountains of gold, silver, jewelry, and copper coins piled on the ground.

"Damn it, Thirteenth Brother!"

Zhao Shuisheng's eyes were full of envy as he said, "You've struck it rich this time!"

"Go! Go! Go!"

Gu Shisan shook his head and said, "What kind of fortune are we trying to make? You know our rules. Most of this money has to be handed over. How much of it will we have left?"

Besides, even if some money is left behind, most of it will be used to support the militia and grassroots development!

"That's true."

Zhao Shuisheng smiled and said, "But with so much grain, you should at least share some with us, right?"

"Don't worry, Fourth Brother!"

Gu Shisan stared at Zhao Shuisheng and laughed, "You, you won't forget the conditions you promised back then!"

"Just wait, in less than a month, we'll send troops and take Lianzhou Prefecture!"

While resting in Qincheng Prefecture, militia members began to move into nearby villages and communities to begin clearing out the land and property of gentry and wealthy families.

All the land and property of the gentry and powerful families were confiscated and then distributed equally among the people.

At the same time, the militia members also successfully took over the administrative affairs of Qincheng Prefecture.

Yang Wenxue, who was literate, became the chief administrator of Qincheng Prefecture.

Mo Shenglan and Huang Yongjing continued to be in charge of the militia's development and the defense of Qincheng Prefecture.

While the land redistribution campaign was in full swing, militia teams were also established in various villages and communities under the jurisdiction of Qincheng Prefecture.

The original militia members of Nasuo Town also joined other militia teams and became key members.

The overall situation in Qinzhou Prefecture is stable and improving!

After half a month of effort, militia teams have been established in various places.

Meanwhile, the thirteenth squad, together with the fourth squad and some militia members, headed towards Lianzhou Prefecture.

The situation in Lianzhou Prefecture was even worse than that in Qincheng Prefecture.

Qincheng Prefecture still had about a thousand soldiers guarding the city, while Lianzhou Prefecture had even fewer, with most of them being patrol officers.

When these people heard that the army of Prince Xin of Dongning was coming, they were immediately thrown into a panic.

With the help of the militia and the poor people in the city, the thirteenth and fourth squads quickly captured Lianzhou Prefecture.

In just over a month, news that Qincheng Prefecture and Lianzhou Prefecture, both located along the coast of Guiling Province, had been captured by the army of Prince Xin of Dongning spread throughout the entire province.

When the Governor-General of Guiling Province learned of this news, he turned pale with fright.

He was especially terrified when he heard that there were thousands or even tens of thousands of militia members in Qincheng Prefecture and Lianzhou Prefecture.

With such a massive force, if it were to receive support from Dongning's new weapons, the entire Guiling province probably wouldn't be able to hold out for long!

"no!"

The governor of Guiling Province turned pale and hurriedly ordered, "Quickly, report this news to His Majesty! Please make a decision!"

For the Governor-General of Guiling Province, this is the only option left.

Meanwhile, in Qinzhou Prefecture.

Today, Qincheng Prefecture has become the old base of the special operations forces of Guiling Province.

In particular, the recent arrival of several merchant ships from the Qingyu Trading Company has provided Qincheng Prefecture with a large amount of weapons and equipment.

Some key members of the militia were also brought together to form the Qinlian Local Garrison Regiment.

The entire Qinlian local garrison regiment consisted of three battalions, totaling 1,500 men.

The 13th and 4th squads were also responsible for training the Chin Lien local garrison.

The weapons and ammunition supplied from the north were also equipped to the Qinlian local garrison regiment.

With this mobile army, Gu Shisan, Zhao Shuisheng and their group became even stronger!

"Fourth brother,"

Looking at Zhao Shuisheng, Gu Shisan said, "Now, the land allocation plan of Qincheng Prefecture is almost complete."

The establishment of militia teams in various regions is about 70-80% complete.

The development in Qincheng Prefecture is booming!

"How's it going in Lianzhou Prefecture?"

"It's a bit slower than here."

Zhao Shuisheng replied, "But it's almost done. It's expected to be fully completed next month."

"Should we continue to expand our influence then?"

"Haha, of course!"

Gu Shisan nodded and said, "Fourth brother, when we came here, the task assigned to us by our superiors was to expand our influence in Guiling Province."

In addition, it would cut off the land trade routes from Guilin Province to Dianchi Lake, Annam, Siam and other places.

It is said that this trade route is the passage through which Li Ming and his men transported bombs to places like Dianchi Lake, Annam, and Siam.

By cutting off these trade routes, we can also get supplies!

"Yes."

Zhao Shuisheng nodded and said, "Now that we have such a large influence in Qinzhou and Lianzhou, let's continue to reorganize our army."

At that time, we will take over the entire Guiling Province.

Forget about land trade routes, not even a bird could fly out under our noses.

Thirteenth Prince, why don't we put this plan into writing and submit it to His Majesty, asking for his support?

With that support, our military expansion can proceed even more rapidly.

"Seeking support?"

Gu Shisan frowned slightly and said, "Fourth brother, since you're asking for support, let's go for something big."

"Thirteenth Brother, what do you mean?"

Zhao Shuisheng was somewhat puzzled.

"hey-hey,"

Gu Shisan smiled mysteriously and said, "I have a bold idea. Let's ask His Majesty to send some core militia members, or even some main combat troops, from Daiyue Province, Zhili Province, Liaodong Province, and other places to support Guiling Province."

At that time, we can directly build an army of tens of thousands in Guiling Province. Not only will we be able to take Guiling Province in one fell swoop, but we can also threaten Li Ming from behind.

By then, it will also be able to alleviate the pressure on the Shenwu Army in Huaibei, Heluo and other places!

It can also pacify the entire Jiangnan region at an even faster pace!

"This is a win-win situation; His Majesty should agree, right?"

"Ah, this..."

Zhao Shuisheng was stunned.

He never expected that Gu Shisan would come up with such a massive plan.

This was beyond the capabilities of their small special operations force.

In this way, the entire Guiling Province will have an army of tens of thousands, which can practically stand alone!

That's really good!

Absolutely amazing!

Zhao Shuisheng took a deep breath, looked at Gu Shisan, nodded heavily, and said, "Thirteenth Brother, you have great courage!"

This plan is excellent, I support it!

Let's submit a joint petition to His Majesty.

I think that not only our side, but also the special operations forces in Lingnan Province and Minyue Province can do this!

Reveal Li Ming's trump card from behind!

"Then, pacifying the entire Great Gan Kingdom will be even faster!"

"Not bad, not bad!"

Gu Shisan nodded and said, "Then it's settled. Draft a proposal and submit it to His Majesty!"
