Chapter 199: Great Harvest

Seeing that Kong Ni was hesitant, Huang Zhongcai said: "Yes, the final general agrees. Besides, my county magistrate has said that there are still a large number of remnants of yellow scarves scattered in the mountains and fields in Yingchuan Runan. If our army can't solve it quickly , Fear of rebirth."

"Yeah!" When everyone heard this, they immediately realized that, indeed, there were yellow turban thieves appearing from time to time in their own territory alone, and everyone was sweating.

"That's right." Just as everyone was thinking about how many Yellow Turban thieves were still haunting their territory, Xu Jing had already promised Huang Zhong that he was willing to help in this matter. Seeing that everyone's attitudes had softened, he stood up and said, " My lord, what Huangfu county magistrate and Huangxian lieutenant said is the words of an old man trying to seek the country. Yuzhou has been victimized by ants for a long time. Although old generals Huangfu and Zhu quickly quelled the rebellion a few years ago, there are still many ant thieves haunting the mountains In the meantime, if my lord can bring him back under the rule of the imperial court and reform him, the people will surely spread his merits and virtues. The lower officials think that the words of the mayor of Zongheng can be adopted, and they can be ordered to contact the thieves in Xiping City and allow him to sacrifice the city. drop."

Seeing that Xu Jing had already opened his mouth, Li Man, the magistrate of Yingyin County, also stepped forward and said, "My lord, I'm following the advice of your lord Xu!"

Hearing the words of some of his cronies, Kong Ni became even more moved, and was about to speak, when he suddenly found that his nephew, Kong Xin, the captain of the personal army, wanted to speak, so he beckoned him to come forward, and said, "Are you here again?" What do you say?"

Kong Xin took a few steps forward, leaned into Kong Ni's ear and whispered, "Uncle, Brother Huangfu asked me to tell you that it is better to hunt for thieves quickly rather than slowly. First, there are yellow scarf thieves scattered everywhere in Yuzhou. If we don't quell the chaos as soon as possible, it will cause the other Yellow Turban thieves to go back and forth. Second, the governor has already lost the battle. If we can't fight for a long time, I'm afraid that there will be villains in the court, and uncle will be difficult to distinguish. Also, since the Inspector-in-Chief is gone, the position of Inspector-in-Chief of Yuzhou..."

"Huh?" Kong Ni's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.

"Brother Huangfu means that uncle should make preparations early. If the rebellion can be suppressed as soon as possible, there will definitely be that when the court arranges... Moreover, he also said that uncle can't go any further. , You can also arrange your own troops in these five cities, and take advantage of the trend to bring these five cities under Yingchuan's control. And... and..."

"What else?" Kong Ni glared at his nephew; "Let's talk together."

Kong Xin shivered in fright, and said: "Also, the Yellow Turban Bandit General in Xiping County sent you 200,000 coins through Brother Huangfu, and I have already put it into your big account."

"Hmm!!!" Kong Ni almost breathed out when he heard it, and immediately recited it. These two nephews of his are not worrying at all. Without saying a word, he even took other people's money behind his back. However, thinking about it the other way around, the two boys are not wrong, and they are indeed making up their own minds. Thinking of this, the anger in my heart has calmed down a lot, and I glared at Kong Xin and said: "I will deal with you two later. , step back first."

"Hmm..." Seeing everyone whispering below, Kong Ni snorted and said, "I think about it again and again, and feel that the words of the mayor of Zongheng are indeed reasonable, so I will hand it over to the mayor of Zongheng to deal with the Yellow Turban in Xiping City." The thief will contact you and say that my official reads for the sake of your hard-won begging, so this time I have agreed to his request, but let him have to surrender the other four cities for my official, and the remaining cities must donate money. A certain amount of money and food will be handed over to the official to reward meritorious soldiers. Moreover, the official of the other four cities and counties will reassign personnel to serve."

"Thank you, my lord. I'll pass on your orders now." Zongheng Tianxia finally let go of his suspense when he heard that Kong Ni finally agreed, and now his money and food were finally saved. After saying that, after paying respects to the Shangguan who was present, he left the camp and headed for Xiping County.

In the afternoon, Yellow Turban Invincible took the convoy and sent it to Kong Ni's army with the money and food that had already been equipped.

In the next few days,

Yellow Turban Invincible took Huang Zhao and ran non-stop to the other four counties to persuade the guards of the other four cities to surrender. Of the four Yellow Turban generals, He Man was the only one left. Soon he also brought hundreds of thousands of money and nearly 20,000 Yellow Turban troops to Kong Ni's camp to surrender. He is a school lieutenant and promised to equip him with 5,000 intermediate infantry after returning to Yingyin. Seeing this, the remaining three cities quickly surrendered, and at the same time offered varying amounts of money and food. In this way, the Runan Yellow Turbans will all be wiped out. Except for the governor of Yuzhou who lost his life, it seems that everyone else has benefited a lot. Among the four generals of the Yellow Turban, apart from Zongtian Tianxia saying he would surrender He Yi, Huang Zhong captured Liu Pi, and He Man surrendered to Kong Ni, which also announced that Kong Ni finally had a general who could barely handle him. The five county towns handed in a total of 800,000 guan in money and 1.2 million shi in grain and grass to Kong Ni. Kong Ni generously gave half of the reward to the officials and soldiers who came to counter the rebellion. From the remaining money and food, he took out 200,000 guan of money and 200,000 shi of food and grass to reward Huangfu Chaobo.

In this way, plus the harvest on the battlefield and the gift from Huangjin Wudi, after this battle, Huangfu Chaobo had a net account of 1.2 million guan, 1.5 million shi of grain and grass, nearly 10,000 imperial soldiers and horses and more than 10,000 Captured by the Yellow Turban Army. And he only paid for the loss of less than two hundred cavalry. No wonder everyone said that war is the way to make money.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion in Yuzhou had just been settled, and the Yellow Turban Ma Xiang in Yizhou attacked and killed Xi Jian, the governor. This time, the players who complained that Yizhou was fine were also excited. For Yizhou players, there were not many wars during the Three Kingdoms period. Basically all is safe and sound. For Yizhou, the Maxiang rebellion is already one of the few major wars. I thought it would take a few years before it would appear, but I didn't expect it to break out suddenly. So the players immediately fanned the flames on both sides. For a while, the Maxiang rebels were like sparks starting a prairie fire, and the flames of war instantly ignited throughout the land of Bashu. The wars that were originally limited to the two counties in history made the players toss about the 11 counties of Yizhou. All wars happened. In Yizhou, which has been peaceful for a long time, the official system is corrupt and the officers and soldiers are scattered. They were caught off guard and allowed the rebels to attack dozens of counties. Yizhou, which originally only had a hundred or so counties, has more than 30 counties. The rebels occupied it for half a month. Of course, the players played a big role in this. For a while, Yizhou, which was originally quiet, suddenly boiled.
