Chapter 680 Failed?
"The Imperial Master is truly a god!!"
Looking at Liu De, who was holding his hands with excitement on his face, Kong Daqian secretly took a breath of cold air in his heart.
Just a week ago, he tricked Liu De into robbing the mansion of a wealthy gentry in the city, and Liu De did it.
But what Kong Daqian didn't expect was that when the soldiers under Liu De heard that they were going to raid the homes of those wealthy gentry, they became like chicken blood and behaved as bravely as possible. At the same time, the people in the city also came to help.
Even if you use your butt to think, you can tell how long they have been thinking about doing this.
The private soldiers maintained by the wealthy gentry were of little use at all in front of these energized soldiers and civilians.
In the blink of an eye, the properties of those wealthy gentry were confiscated one by one.
Under this premise, Liu De did something ruthless. He pushed the entire family of those wealthy gentry directly to the vegetable market entrance and beheaded them in public, which drew cheers from the people in the city.
Afterwards, he used the food seized from the confiscations to set up several porridge shops in the city to provide porridge. Suddenly, the people in the city began to spread his good name.
This made Liu De, who had been a little unsure before, completely lose his worries. He rushed to Kong Daqian in ecstasy to tell him the good news, and was full of admiration for him.
"Listen to me! From today on, seeing the Imperial Master is like seeing me, the King!"
As he spoke, Liu De took off his sword in public and stuffed it into Kong Daqian's hand.
Holding the sword in his hand, Kong Daqian felt very complicated at this moment.
If he had not seen through Liu De's true nature long ago, he would probably have been moved by now.
But now, he didn't dare to move at all, and his whole body was directly blown away by the wind.
[Oh my god! Did I mess this up?! ]
At the same time, Zhou Xu, who was in Huangsha City, was obviously unaware that Kong Daqian, whom he had sent out, had actually manipulated and created a "Prince Jing" in Yansheng.
At this moment he was listening to Joseph reporting the latest intelligence information.
The food problem, which existed before winter, became even more serious after winter.
At the same time, the occupation of domestic cities is not just as simple as losing a city. It often also means the loss of a large amount of resources, or even the output of some specific resources.
You know, for these rulers, the country is a whole, and every city in it is a component of the country and has different responsibilities.
These cities with different responsibilities are connected together to form a complete internal cycle.
In this case, if there is a problem in one of the cities, the ruler may be able to solve the problem by mobilizing resources from other cities.
But if there are problems in many cities in the country, or even in every city, then this cycle will inevitably be completely broken, leading to the paralysis of the internal development of the entire country! At this moment, this is undoubtedly the problem that Yan Sheng needs to face.
To round it off, all the wars Yan Sheng had fought over the years were in vain. He had spent so much effort to annex the surrounding countries, but now they were splitting away one after another, and the situation had returned to the pre-liberation era overnight.
In fact, it is even worse than before liberation! Before liberation, he had only one mu and three fen of land, and at least he had all the necessary facilities, so the internal operation was not a problem.
But what about now? He occupied Black Stone City and had 3,000 soldiers, but he had nothing under him. His internal development had been paralyzed. Yan Sheng wanted to clean up the mess, but because the mess was so bad, he didn't know where to start.
In this situation, the only person who can have a good attitude is a god.
And he was obviously not among them, so during this period of time, his mood was as bad as it could be.
The only person who could make him feel better was the great general Jie Liancheng whom he always disliked.
During this period, facing the Centaur mercenaries who often appeared around Blackrock City and launched harassment operations, General Jie Liancheng frequently led the cavalry into battle, won battle after battle, and repelled them many times, which boosted the morale of the people in the city.
To this end, Yan Sheng spared no expense and gave rewards every time they returned victorious. After a few rounds, the soldiers in the cavalry unit made a lot of money, and many officers were even promoted by two levels.
But invisibly, it also caused dissatisfaction among many soldiers from other troops.
On this day, the cavalry troops, still under the leadership of Jie Liancheng, fought off the Centaur mercenaries and returned to the city in high spirits.
On the way back to the barracks, the soldiers looked down on others, with a look of smugness and pride.
Seeing this scene, a soldier from the infantry unit not far away curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
"What are you so proud of? Who doesn't know how capable those guys in the cavalry unit are? In the end, isn't it all thanks to the general?"
As soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately agreed by many infantrymen around.
"That's right! Do you really think it's your ability?"
"It's a pity they still have the nerve to accept the reward!"
Hearing the voices of approval and support around him, the soldier who was speaking couldn't help but feel more confident, and even the tone of his voice rose by several decibels.
"That's right! We all know the great general's ability. He is unstoppable on the battlefield! With the great general's ability, let alone leading these guys, even if he led a hundred pigs, wouldn't he still win the battle? Is there any difference?"
These words immediately caused a burst of laughter, and made the infantrymen feel much better.
But on the other hand, some people are in a bad mood.
"What did you say?!"
Amid the angry shouts, a group of cavalrymen came over with unfriendly faces.
The soldier who spoke was a little scared at first, but when he saw his comrades standing next to him, he suddenly became confident again.
I just made up my mind and shouted...
"I said you are pigs! Even if the general led a hundred pigs, he would still win the battle. You have no ability at all, why are you so proud?!"
"You are looking for death!!"
To some extent, these words directly touched the pain point of the cavalry unit. In an instant, each of them became furious and rushed forward to grab the soldier and beat him up!
Little did they know that during this period of time, the soldiers in the infantry unit were also full of anger.
Now everyone was standing on their two legs, fighting. Who was afraid of who? "Fuck it! Call some people! Call some people for me! Kill them!!"
In just a moment, the two groups of soldiers in the barracks started fighting each other, and the scale of the fight was still growing, leading to a large-scale internal conflict! (End of this chapter)
